A 119“ coil frequently in- creases not 0111} power speed and pick-up but gasoline mileage as “ ell. The filling of the grease .gun or grease cup can be expedltiously done with hot grease. Heat the can of wrease on the stove or in a pail of Eoiling' water. Remove Bolts With Care The threads on most automobile bolts are the SAE. standard. being finer than those used for ordinary mechanical purposes. the object. being to lessen the liability of their nuts lcmsening from vibration, and these standard bolts should be ob- tained when replacements have been made. The. threaded parts of bolts should never be. struck with a hammer. squeezed in the jaws of a vise or held with the. pliers. least they be battered so that. their nuts will not screw on. In driving a belt out of its hole. place a block of hardwcivod against. the threaded end and hit the block with the. hammer. All nuts should be turned on with fingers for enough to make sure that the threads are not crossed be- fore a wrench is used. If a nut turns very hard before it comes to a bearing, quite likely it is cross threaded. If a nut, when removed, is found to have a lock washer under it. never on any account fail to put on the lock washer when replacing the nut. As to replacing cotter pins in castellated nuts, it amounts to potential manslaughter to neglect this. To facilitate re- placing cotters in castle nuts, file or scratch a diameter on the end face of the bolt. parallel with pin hole so that it is possible to tell when the nut should stand to let the cotter pass through the hole. Electrical Adjustment Necessary For Change of Seasons With the coming of warm weaâ€" flier the car is in constant. use. Less current. is needed to operate the starter. the lights are not so frequently used and the car is driven at higher Speeds and for longer periods. For these reasons the battery is often overcharged, and if this romlition is kept up serious battery damage will result through plates buckling. Some drivers leave their lights bin-hing on long trips to reduce. the cur- rent. going to the battery, but at best. this is a makeshift arrange- ment. The. best plan is to drive into a service station and have the ehargin:._.r rite of the. generator changed for summer conditions. This takes but. a few minutes and is a precaution well worth while.1 Then check the water level in the battery at. frequent intervals. filling with distilled water as‘ needed. Check the. battery cables for tightness and keep them coated with vaseline or grease to prevent. corrosion.

Sand Bag for Dented Fenders A bag 0f sand is one. of the most useful SUDDOI'tS to track up a dented fondm- or a body dent. while driv- ing: tlw metal back with a rubber, wooden or rawhide mallet. If the bag: is lightly packed and soaked with water it will be much better than a lezul block. The sand bag will «lo no damagv at. all to the paint on. the car, Lubrication Keeps Cars Young Lack or lubrication makes new cars grow old rapidly. Rattles and squvaks moan that springs and Spring shackles are being neglect- ml and require attention. The moving: parts 0f Hm chassis. as well as tlm rust. of UN: car. should be lubricated regularly. Once every 5le milvs is the safe average for niling. Dirt Hides Beauty and Defective Parts of Car Frequent and regular washing not only preserves the surface of a car, but makes inspection of the chassis easier and very often brings to light things which need adjust- ment. such as loose nuts and other parts that. may cause trouble on the read.

WWWWOQM».«O«QM«..¢ «- The March issue of the Canadian School Board Journal”, in recom- mending “Lizzie Anne” for school libraries says: “This is an extreme-- ly interesting story for children and for older people with child- like hearts.” Which explains this book perfectly. Lizzie Anne Macdonald is very much a Canadian girl, and her home “Cloverlea Farm” is also obâ€" viously Canadian, as cleverly ae- picted in: “But in the snowbound winter it stood foursquare to the storms, sheltered only by the long windbreak .of pine trees which bordered the driveâ€"slender, virile pines they were, standing straight and strong against the fury of the winter winds.” In similar style, “Cloverlea” is delineated as it ap- pears in each season. Lizzie Anne is such a skillfully drawn,"lovable character. that even the most casual reader immediately takes her to his heart. While she is a good girl. she is not a “goody goody” by any means! She has un- wittingly set herself the mission of bringing happiness into the lives of others, and it need not be men- tioned that she. succeeds admirably. It was pleasant to hear that you and your girl .friends had such pleasant evenings readlng “A Dealer in Sunshine”, I feel sure when you make the acquaintance of “Lizzie Anne” that you,will all love her. Clara Bernhardt has given 'us a glimpse of the pleasures ahead in this review. ’ â€"â€"RUTH RAEBURN Dear Prudence: “Lizzie Anne”, by Dora Olive Thompson ([7 pper “Canada; Tract Socie_ty 1927 ) Come in 8: ChatAwhile â€"Ruth Raeburn.

And I think I am not alone when I express the wish that we may be given sometime, another book about Lizzie Anne. If we could but peer beneath ,their calm, ‘indifi'erent masks, what gems might we not unearth! I often think that those who feel most deeply. are those that give no out- ward mdications.
