The mileage records of our tires prove that they are unexcelled for endur- ance and long life. Tire mileage must be judged by. the service it gives. Ours will measure up to the highest standard. Many motorists know that it is | necessary to use a hydrometer syr- | inge to test a storage battery, but | they do. mot always know just how |to use dt. It is not hard to learn and it is really worth while if a man would have himself from a ba'tery repair 'bill, The hydrometer has a scale grad- uation in the upper part of the tube ranging from 1.150 to 1.300, with - 005, graduations, and reads correct- ly at 70 degrees Fahrenheit. A full charged cell should read about 1.280, and a completely discharged shell should read about 1.150 specific grav- ity, both of which are marked by a red Hone on the scale usually. suitable, Proof of this is to be found in the remarkable sue- cess of Miss Griff, the first wo- man to become an associate member of the Institute of Au- Bfitain. Starting as a motor engineer, Miss Griff ultimately acquired such a knowledge of lighting installation, pumping plants, gas and ofl engines, farm machinery, plow and trac- tors, that she was able to esta- blish herself as a successful consulting engineer, CPP PGP CREEP d CEEFP 242290202000 * + + + + 3 * + + + + * tomoblie Engineers of Great + » + + + + + L + 2 + * always cooler than day alr, so at night the engine can get a heavier charge and so produce a more pow- erfyl impulse at each explosion. Not only is the air taken into the engine cooler, and eo heavier, but the presence of & cooler atmosphere means that the water cooling will be more effective; that the motor will in itself be cooler. This helps to make the charge drawn in still better because the air comes into the carburetor cooler and i3 heated less on its way through the manifolds and within the eylin- der itself. * Also the oil will be cool- er, its lubricating properties there- friction in the motor, fore better, and so there will be less | » Our CompleteEquipment enables us to do auto repairing in . the shortest posgible time consistent with good work.

It is a well-recognized fact that the finish on the hood dulls before that on the rest of the car, due main- ly to the extremes of temperature which the hood has to undergo. It is a very good plan to wipe off the hood when you get back into the gar- age after a run in the rain, because the water dries on the hood metal very rapidly due to the warmth, and the drops are almost sure to spot, in time gradually dulling the finish. ot course, it goes without saying that any car's finish is better for being wiped off all over after being wet, but this particularly 1s important for the bonnet. -------- To True Wire Wheel, When it is necessary to true a slightly misaligned wire wheel one should be careful to use a closefitting wrench or parallel pliers on the nip- ples, and do the job slowly and even- ly. A wooden block serves to steady the hand in chalking up the "out" and "in" places on the wheel. The, general principle is that tightening nipples on an outer row of spokes throws the rim in, while tightening those on ifiner spokes moves the rim out. Nipples directly opposite those tightened should be loosened about half as much. highway in almost any direction out| " i ---- of Cleveland will be passed by | Pump Leakage. swarms of new cars.

The hydrometer test should be made before distilled water is added, If distilled water is added, and them the test made, the reading will not be correct. . Make the test as follows: 1. Remove vent plugs from top of cell. 2. Force the air out of hydro- meter syringe by squeezing the rub- ber bulb. 3. Insert rubber tube through the vent plug hole into the electrolyte, or battery solution. 4. Release the bulb and draw up sufficient electrolyte into the glass tube to float the hydrometer, 6. See that the hydrometer floats freely, touching neither top, bottom nor sides. 3 6. Move the hydrometer, syringe #0 that the level of the electrolyte in the glass tube is 'on the level of eye, { we Read the point on the hydro- meter scale which appears level with the top of the electrolyte. 8. Then force the electrolyte back into the cell from which it was re- moved. It is advisable to rinse out the hydrometer syringe with water, as the electrolyte will in time destroy the containing case, In some cars, the battery is so placed that it is difficult or impos- : sible to hold the syringe in an up> ll | right position over the battery. Un- | der such circumstances, pinch the | rubber tube with the left hand so that the battery solution will not run out of the hydrometer. Then, lift the hydrometer out and away. from the car and hold it upright and take the reading.
