Mr. Homeowner
WANT TO KEEP THE ROOF OVER YOUR HEAD!
The Better Business Bureau Suggests That You Consider The Following
Safeguards:
1. DEAL with local established Building Material Suppliers and/or Con-
tractors.
2. NEVER sign a blank contract — READ BEFORE YOU SIGN — AND
KEEP A COPY.
3. NEVER accept oral promises — insist that all specifications, promises
... and guarantees are contained in the CONTRACT.
'4. BEWARE of salesmen wanting to inspect your roof.
5. DO NOT HESITATE TO GET ESTIMATES from several contractors
(based oh the same specifications) to make sure you will not be over-
charged. Determine the exact financing terms, as interest rates vary.
Remember that the FHA and lending agencies do not inspect or guaran-
tee the job or materials and workmanship.
6. NEVER sign a completion certificate before the job is finished to your
satisfaction.
7. REMEMBER there are many varieties of roofing — many varieties of
guarantees — and jnany varieties of roofing contractors. The Better
Business Bureau suggest that you deal only with those contractors who
have demonstrated their reliability and stability by remaining in busi-
ness for a period of time.
Beware of the itinerant peddler of off brand roofing shingles, unknown
preparations that are supposed to waterproof your roof, promises by un-
known and non-established concerns or salesmen offering to repair your
roof for a small sum of money.
REMEMBER IT IS YOUR MONEY AND YOUR HOME THAT IS IN-
VOLVED . . . MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO ASSURE YOURSELF THAT
YOU ARE DEALING WITH A RELIABLE CONTRACTOR WHOSE
GUARANTEE, MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP CAN BE RELIED
UPON.

By DON EVANS
Editor, “Car Craft” Magazine
An automobile engine’s most
formidable enemy is the same
opponent fought against by
housewives — common dust.
The average engine uses ap-
proximately 9,000 gallons (or
1,200 cubic feet) of air for eve-
ry gallon of gasoline it burns.
In that air are dust particles,
some so small they cannot be
seen by the naked eye; never-
theless, they are hard — and
sharp—enough to damage pis-
ton rings and cylinders.
The function of the air clean-
er is, of course, to filter out
these harmful dust particles but
even the finest 'air cleaners
cannot remove all these im
purities which often find their
way into the engine’s oil sys-
tem, via the cylinder walls.
Once in the oil, these contami-
nants have a “field day,” work-
ing busily* on ring*, -eyttndws
and other engine parts and, in
some engines, 'restricting the
wir intake enough so that gaso-
line is wasted because^of too
rich a fuel mixture.
Thus, the reason for an oil
filter. When properly main-
tained, it will screen out much
of this harmful material, pro-
longing the life of the engine.
Unfortunately, the filter does
not eliminate all of the dust
and, while collecting much of
it, tends to become clogged,
minimizing its filtering effect
and allowing the particles free
reign, once again.
In addition to dust, there are
numerous other contaminants
which somehow find their way
into the oil stream and concen-
trate on destroying the engine,
including water, soot, acids,
sludge and other deposits.
These are some of the reasons
there is so much preaching
about changing oil and oil fil-
ters. It’s, a good recommenda-
tion and one which can save the
car owner many dollars in the
long run. Suggested frequency
of oil changes varies from auto-
mobile manufacturers to pe-
troleum industries, but a rea-
sonable guide to follow is to
Change oil every 80 to 90 days
in summer months and every
30 to 60 days in the winter. And
—replace the filter with at
least every other oil change.
