Stand the car on level ground, fifty f'eet from a verical surface, such as the side of a build- int a. fence or the garage door. Mark two crosses on this surface; the hor- izontal lines of the crosses should be 42 inches from the ground while the distance between the vertical lines should be equal to the distance be- tween the lamps of your car. Remove the covers or lenses of the lamp, turn the light on the two marks and focus the lamps by changing the location of the bulbs until you obtain the smallest circle of clear light centered on the crosses. As long as the light circle on the wall shows a black spot in the centre your bulb is too far back in the reflector; as long as that circle re- mains fuzzy, streaked or without sharply defined edges, proper focus has not been obtained. The crosses incidentally enable you to check up the alignment of your lamps. Fre- quently they are tilted upward or downward, or sideways. After focus- ing the non-glare or plain lenses may be replaced and your lamps are etfie- ient as they can be with the equip- ment you carry. But, as long as you are anxious to have properly focused lamps, the focusing has to be done again when you change or renew lamp bulbs. N While it grieves us to inject this discordant note, candor nevertheless compels the statement that some mo- torists will find it practically impossi- ble to obtain a, clear white spot of light when focusing their lamps. In these cases the fault lies with the re- fleetor, which may have been turned out by the manufacturer who, in all likelihood would not recognize a par- abloid if it were presented to him by a proceésir served Everything that glitters with a nice, shiny coat of nickel plating is not necessarily a par- FOCUSING HEADLIGHTS N GRAY-D ollliYlllr Built in Canada by J‘killed Canadian Warkers and Canadian Capital Motor News of Interest One of the tianlterg in putting tubes in casings is that the tube will prevent this, making it almost impossible for a tube to be Caught under the toe of the casing. Dirt or small stones in a casing gradually work ‘through the tube, causing it to blow out or puncture. The use of Wet soapstone or dampness in the casing itself will cause the tube to stick to the casing and start rot. Due attention to these little things will give much more satisfactory and profitable service out of tubes. These three,tittle tube hints add not only miles of wear with consequent saving in trouble, but will actually add miles to the. casing itself. Be sure that the inside of the casing is dry and use some soap-stone, but not too much. Innate that inner tube slightly be- fore inserting it in the casing. Be sure tttere is no dirt, sand or small stones in the casing. Many car owners have suffered the annoyance of trying to pour distilled water into their storage batteries and having much of it slop over. Here is a little device that makes this oper- ation accurate and easy. Drill a hole in the cork that fits an appropriately sized bottle. Into this hole thrust a quill or glass tube. ‘ Next drill a small hole in the neck of the bottle just a- bove where it swells out into the body. The flow of water can be regulated by covering and uncovering this hole, which admits air to the bottle. abolic lamp reflector. When lamps happen to be saddled with reflectors of this description, all you can do is to focus your lamps until you obtain the nearest approach to a clear, white circle of light.

Do not permit accumulations of oily waste, but deposit such waste and rags in approved waste cans. In cleaning the headlight reflectors care should be taken to guard against gritty substances. To do this effect- ively, wet a piece of absorbent cotton with grain alcohol, wipe the reflector from the bulb socket outward and dry with a piece of cotton. OIL LEAKS CAUSE Very often leaks through the axle tubes from the differential housing ant gets on the brake bands, making it impossible for the friction surface to grip the metal drums when the brake pedal is depressed. To remedy the trouble temporarily pour a little kerosene on the, bands, as this cuts the grease. To cure the trouble install new felt washers to threvent the oil getting through the axle tubes. J. G.
