"REGULAR SERVICE STATION BEST": FAN "The average new auto fan doesn't appear to realize the wisdom of sending his car to the authorized service station that distributes it," said a Ford fan who has been thru the mill, so to speak. "No service station can be better than Dunton's on Ford cars," to take one example, "and isn't likely to be as good, because no man or set of men can know half a dozen cars as well as they would know one or two. Of course Dunton isn't the only distributor of which this is true; only an outstanding example. "Dunton's men are specialists on all models of the Ford, Fordson and Lincoln, the vehicles which Dunton distributes. Think of the accumulation of experience which these men have, the countless kinds of repairs they have made! "And their mastery of their work..." Harry D.

YOU ARE "WELCOME AT HARRY RILEY" At the big Studebaker factory South Bend and Detroit, as in the showrooms of Studebakers everywhere, the first thing confronts the visitor is an attentive sign displaying word "Welcome." When an employee steps inside door in the morning, he is met with sign of welcome. The salesman visits the Studebaker purchase partment, the man who is seen position, the visitor or salesman calls on a Studebaker dealer, welcomed in the same way. No matter what a man's may be, he is made to feel at before he is fairly inside the old-fashioned idea, which been the subject of just ridiculous years has been resurrected by baker and put to practical use. The familiar old sign of hot city, the word "Welcome," has lifted from the door mats of her erationo r two ago and elevates conspicuous and deserving place new surroundings—the sales of Studebaker dealers in all parts of the world. "The public is welcome when Studebaker cars are sold" saidry D. Riley, who has recently stalled one of those attractive "nd we want them to know it welcome which awaits the visit Studebaker salesroom promises come as famous as the Studebaker slogn, "This is a Studebaker because one is just as true as other." AIN DEALER DING, NEWSPAPER OF NORTHERN ORANGE COUNTY Anaheim, California, Saturday, Oct. 14, 1922 L. S. IRVIN—Master Garage Man IRVIN'S GARAGE HE NEVER CLOSES "You Wreck 'Em We Tow 'Em" SUPER (By The Mysterious Cowboy) INSURANCE DOESN'T COVER EMBEZZLING Be careful of your alleged friends who want to borrow your auto these days, warns the Automobile Club of Southern California. There is an epidemic of embezzlement cases throughout the southern and central counties of California, and according to the testimony of scores of motorists, the embezzling is being done by persons who claim to be friends of the car owner. Don't loan your car to any person who wishes to borrow it without the proper references or unless you know that the person is reliable—this warning is made emphatic today by the Auto club, following the report of hundreds of cars embezzled throughout Southern California by the so-called friends of motorists. In the case of embezzlement, which is very different from ordinary "theft," the ordinary forms of fire and theft insurance do not protect the car owner, and he is out of luck if his car is embezzled, according to a statement from the club insurance department. The question of embezzlement concerns the original intention of the person "borrowing" the car. If he does not intend to steal it at the time, but just wants to use it for a while and then later decides to make away with it, that is embezzlement.

Many Me are expected climbing ca When I found myself on the premises of Irvin's Garage, on North Angeles street, I was immediately impressed with the idea that was surely in a most serviceable home for autos. Spacious, orderly, hint at confusion or congestion; this garage literally terms with efficiency that must be part of such an institution, if such a place no function with that performance of duty that brings infallible satisfaction to the auto owner. More Roads Improved in Week The principal road improvement of week reported by the office of City Engineer J. L. McBride was paving of Tustin-ave from Fourth Seventeenth-st. between Tustin Santa Ana, which was begun on day. The work will be finished in 60 days. An important improvement completed this week was the construction shoulders on the Olive-blvd from Santa Ana river bridge to Placa-ave. The work of gravelling West-st of Anahcim was started this week. Among the improvements of the end or early next wee kto bo are the gravelling of the riders of East Center-st between Centia-ave and the road leading the Anaheim cemetery; and condition by Los Angeles-co of the dam road three quarters of a long on the County Line high-orange-co will defray half the cost of the latter improvement. The grading and oiling of Cypress-La Habra, was finished this Pacific Electric railway is extended next week to finish the build-of its spur east of Stern's Station, a new gravel pit will be opened concomitant No. Orange-co. Oiling of Orangethorpe-ave of Placentiz-ave has been de-a week or more, but the preparation for the work is not done. For five years Mr. Irvin has made his place a model of efficiency, and he continues to instill those features and improvements into his business that are born of experience and conscientious endeavor. It is therefore one of Anaheim's oldest and most reliable of garages. Let us see how the service of this place asserts itself. Driving into the garage, one has no encounter with inadequacy in floor space—there are no pillars or other things to hinder the convenient and correct parking of the auto. Once in the garage one does not have to wait for the appearance of an attendant. They are there twenty four hours of the day, and they are there to serve and to please. And we must speak about that admirable Super Motor Service that is the child of this fine institution. For the nominal sum of eighteen dollars a year the one who uses this garage for storage, is afforded a most excellent attention to the auto. This feature includes greasing each month, checking over the carburetor and ignition, careful attention to the brakes and all other minor adjustments to the auto. The service, in time alone, is worth twice as much, but the paramount thing in this garage is minimum cost for maximum service. As before stated the Irvin Garage is open always—they never close. This means twenty-four hour service for the autist 365 days a year. Their tow service is just as perpetual. Being a day and night garage, an owner can leave his car to be greased, oiled and polished up and get it again, the first thing the next morning. Mr. Irvin is always adding features Soon Orange county highways and crossroad will usefully exhibit his own sign posts with Anaheim as the uppermost thought. Then no motorist can long delay in finding the way and distance to this promising city. The mechanical end of the business is all that can be desired. Grown men and highly experienced and skilled are the ones who lift the hood of the car and do the repair work. VEEDOL-OLOGY IS WORTH YOUR STUDY A most interesting little book is Veedol—interesting both to distributors of this well known oil and to the layman. It tells exactly how this oil works its charms in the engine and all its parts. It shows the comparative delicacy of the engine. Take a look at the book at Nenno & Bock's. Read the analysis of Veedol and learn why it is particularly well-adapted to your engine. Does the oil you are using emulsify readily, that is thicken and get gummy? Does the heat cause it to readily decompose and destroy its essential qualities? Is the evaporation loss large and rapid? If your oil is defective in any of these ways, you had better get Veedol. The book also discusses gasoline at great detail and mentions several tests. Nenno and Bock will help you select the grade of oil you want. GOING TO OAKLAND AFTER CHEVROLET'S Starting early next week, perhaps tomorrow evening, Frank P. Taggart and several salesman will go up to Oakland and drive down several of the new 1923 Chevrolet models which have just come upon the market. They do so, because they want to show the public what the car is, although deliveries in quantity will not be possible as yet. The day of leaving depends upon when the car will be ready. Distinctive features of the new Chevrolet include low cost of operation, including high gasoline and oil mileages, extensive service facilities—5,000 dealers and parts depots; driving comfort, including double ventilating wind shields and motors that are always properly cooled; curtains with open doors; vacuum feed on all models with tank in rear; demountable rims; improved design; and Fisher bodies.

Grid Is Important On Radio Receiver The part that the grid plays in the operation of the auditor or vacuum tube in common use on radio receivers is most interesting, says A. Bevillard, local battery man and electrician. This is the electrode that delivers the pulsations of the radio waves which are received by the antennae, to the "B" battery circuit. The current from the "B" battery passes between filament and plate thru the grid itself. The grid adds to or substracts from the flow of electrons moving from the filament to the plate, and thus affects the phones on the "B" battery circuit so that the phone diaphragms give the corresponding signals to those received by the aerial circuit. "All other things being satisfactory" says S. E. Leonard, radio engineer of the Willard Storage Battery Company, "much depends upon the type of "B" battery used. The new Willard Radio "B" Storage Battery has met a most flattering reception and has answered a long felt want among radio operators for a quiet and efficient "B" battery.
