Saturday, March 15, 1924 FOUR-PASSENGER DODGE COUPE HERE To meet a distinct need for a car of convenient size that would comfortably seat four people Dodge Brothers designed and produced their new four-passenger coupe. Orders taken have already reached the point where they are taxing the facilities of the factory. Charley Mann, local distributor has just received one. The body of the coupe, which is of composite construction, is one of the finest examples of coach builders' art. The seating arrangement is staggered, with a seat folding design at the side of the driver. One feature is found in the fact that the driver sits directly behind the steering wheel—not at an angle. Four passengers can be seated with the utmost comfort. Also, the doors are extra wide, allowing ease of movement in getting in and out. The body, which is painted a deep blue with a yellow trim-stripe, is upholstered in genuine mohair velvet. Mohair velvet has long been recognized as a material which for beauty and durability stands premier. It cleans easily and its richness is at once apparent to all who use it. Disc wheels are standard equipment on the new coupe, as are window regulators, a dome light and hardware of Dodge Brothers own design. For those who demand more complete equipment Dodge Brothers set aside a certain number of these coupes to be specially equipped. The special equipment includes a nickelled radiator shell, cowl lights, nickeled front and rear bumpers, special striping on the louvers of the hood, motometer and lock, automatic widshield wiper, balloon tires, etc. The four-passenger coupe is attractive in appearance and conforms in every detail to modern design. Dodge Brothers chassis lends itself admirably to this type of car, which is an attractive addition to the types which the company has been producing for many years. Here are some hints on preparing your car for spring and summer: Spring is near at hand. Many motorists are having their cars overhauled and repainted at this time of the year. Others are doing the work themselves in the odd moments that they can find over the week ends. K. M. Brown, local manager of the Western Auto Supply Company, has outlined a procedure for the back yard mechanic who plans to do his own "spring cleaning" in his own garage. Says Mr. Brown, "with the proper tools and equipment it is an easy matter for the motorist to make the numerous adjustments and minor repairs that his car should receive before the summer months. With the many special tools that are now offered, many car owners do their own valve grinding, bearing tightening and all other similar operations." To do a complete overhauling job, the mechanical labor should be done first. A thorough inspection of the chassis should follow; tightening of bolts and inserting lock washers where needed. It is often necessary that the radiator hose should be inspected, and new equipment will prevent much trouble. After the mechanical and tightening process are completed a thorough greasing should follow. If the shackles are clogged they should be removed and cleaned. Springs should be thoroughly lubricated and a general greasing should be given where needed. If the car is equipped with wooden wheels, close inspection should be given them, as the spokes may have worked loose and will require tightening. This may be remedied by squirting a few drops of "Spoketite" in the fellows of the wheel and at the points where the spokes enter the hubs. "The car should then be given a steam cleaning and complete washing to prepare it for the paint job. There has been such demand for prepared automobile paints for home consumption that we have made up a regular painting outfit for the man who aspires to do his own painting. This outfit contains everything for a first class job. It contains a large car of body and fender enamel, a car of gear and wheel paint, a can of top dressing, engine enamel and two brushes and a pack of steel wool. The painting should be done in a dust proof room, allowing about 48 hours between coat of paint." "After the body painting is completed the top and cushions should be treated with special paint prepared for them. This paint keeps the leather soft and pliable, rather than hardening it." "The painting done the metal parts should be cleaned and polished. Up until a short time ago it was necessary that the metal parts in order to retain their prime luster be polished every time the car was washed, but now motorists may preserve the polished surface by coating it with this film of Izen, a preservative made solely for that purpose. The salesmen at our store of S. Los Angeles street, conclude Mr. Brown, are always willing to answer any questions or make any suggestions that will aid the car owner to gain the maximum of service from his car." NEVER A JORDAN LIKE NEW MODEL Anyone who has ever driven a Jordan car equipped with hydraulic four-wheel brakes will tell you they are the simplest and most factory braking system ever devised, says the J. E. Walter Co., local dealers. Anyone who has ever used them will never feel safe in another car unless it is equipped with them. Jordan hydraulic four wheel brakes are even simpler than the old fashioned two-wheel brakes—there are actually few moving parts. One owner says: "There is something about the perfect wrap that you get with the hydraulic four-wheel brakes—something so smooth, so velvety and so absolutely sure about their action that you simply can't do without them after you have once had the experience of using them. Not a single part of the Jordan four-wheel brake system requires lubrication. There is nothing that can rattle, squeak or make noise of any kind. There are no better pins or clevis pins to drop out. There is positively no interference with steering. A glance at a Jordan chassis equipped with this system will impress you with its simplicity over any system requiring rods, equalizers and cables." CALL FILM STARS TO AID OF DINES LOS ANGELES, March 15.—Mabel Normand and Edna Purviance, film actresses, will be called to the rescue of Courtland S. Dines, Denver sportsman, when he is grilled next Wednesday by District Attorney Asa Hayes on his lapse of memory story in the case of Horace Greer, chauffeur for Miss Normand, who shot Dines on New Year's night, it developed today when attorneys for Greer asked subpoenas for the two actresses to compel them to appear in court as witnesses to support Dines. MEXICAN HURT BY MOTORCYCLE Augustine Acosta was run over and slightly injured at the north end of Lemon-st by a motorcycle driven by S. V. Gray of Brea. The accident is said to have occurred when Acosta tried to beat the motorcycle across the road. Acosta, who was knocked down, was treated by a local physician. His injuries consisted of a badly bruised hip, and bruises and cuts about the face and hands. WE KNOW IT!

MYSTIC MESSAGE BEARER SMILES Once when the world was young and the sky was blue, when birds sang and peanut whistles tootled their warm breath in competition with the spring sunshine—once in that long ago the postman smiled and felt young again when he delivered at some sprightly maiden's door a missive bearing on its flap the cryptic initials S.W.A.K. Those thrills were of the long long ago in ages past and all but forgotten. Would we renew our youth? Would we feel again that warm surging of the senses? Can the spark be made to flame? At least those of us who look back at the pleasure of bygone days can recall glowing memories by going to see Shirley Mason in "Love Letters," a William Fox production to be shown at the Fairyland theater today and tomorrow. The picture, as the name implies, deals with love letters and those budding young things who write and read them. With the love element there has been intertwined a mystery that holds a breathtaking tension to the end. RADIO NOISES DUE OFTEN TO BATTERY "When jazz, symphony or sermon comes forth from your radio blurred or drowned out by a med-ley of noises, what do you think is the trouble? "It may be static; but did it ever occur to you that there might be another explanation—and one that could lead to quick relief? "Well, there frequently is, and it can be summed up in one word—batteries," says A. Bevillard of the Anaheim Ignition Depot. "As you know, every radio set equipped with one or more tubes requires two kinds of batteries—an "A" battery to supply the current which heats the filament of the tube, and one or more "B" batteries to supply current for the plate circuit of the tube, which reproduces the incoming signals and causes the vibrations in the diaphragm of the phones that make the signals audible. "While battery noises may be due to either A or B batteries, or both, it is the B batteries which are the principal offenders, for the reason that they are right in the phone circuit, while A batteries are not. "Because they are in phone circuit, any disturbances caused by or within the B batteries immediately affect the vibrations of the phone diaphragm, producing a variety of harsh, discordant sounds. The intensity of this disagreeable effect, of course, is greatly increased when amplified, especially wherever loud speaking apparatus is used." Guarantees Aid Used Car Sales The policy of re-conditioning and guaranteeing used cars before placing them on sale is proving highly successful, says Harry D. Riley, who in the face of a dull, but brightening market situation has been enduring an excellent ANTA FE LA FE LEASE, March 15. — Mrs. Milton Elliot and Mrs. Richardson were Los shoppers Thursday.

BELASCO PICTURE SENSATION HERE The management of the California expected a great deal of unusual comment on the showing of the big Belasco film "Tiger Rose" starring Lenore Ulric, but it did not expect that it would create the sensation in Anaheim that it has created. The unmistakable influence of that great master and genius, David Belasco, was evident throughout the entire photoplay which held the audience with its interest and attention focused at the highest pitch. It is indeed a picture that will long be remembered one that will long be a standard by which other pictures will be judged. Lenore Ulric proved herself as great in the silent drama as upon the stage, and those who have seen her in the original play will easily recognize that magnetic personality that brought her to the pinnacle of fame in playing the title role in this play. She is simply marvelous in the Warner Brothers screen version, which is greater than any stage play could ever hope to be. The vast advantage enjoyed by the camera as a means of bringing nature's own scenery before you, the blood-tingling breath of the frozen Northland, the rushing waterfalls, the giant pine trees, and the beaten trails through the heavy snows move smoothly and vividly in front of your eyes—and make the picture greater than the play. The story is one dealing with the adventurous life in the Hudson Bay country, where in the Harvard graduate on his homemade claim lives side by side with the renegade and fugitive from justice. Into this life little Rose Bocion, nicknamed "Tiger Rose" is born of an infidel father and a mother who was a dance-hall girl. How she lives and finds her goal in this environment is the theme of the story. Battery Price Cut Is Only Temporary Guarantees Aid Used Car Sales The policy of re-conditioning and guaranteeing used cars before placing them on sale is proving highly successful, says Harry D. Riley, who in the face of a dull, but brightening market situation has been enjoying an excellent business. Riley's used car sales have been brisk in fact ever since he re-opened the business on Jan. 1. The completeness of the stock of cars-on hand and pleasing color combinations have been strong drawing cards. The special guaranteed paint jobs have particularly attracted purchasers.
