There is a double strain on the front springs if the brakes are applied when the front wheels strike a hole or similar ob- struction. To Prevent Scoring Cylinders One way to prevent scoring cy- linders, especially when travelling at high speed, is to remove the foot from the accelerator from time to time. The throttle is thus closed, and oil is sucked up past the pistons. PAGE 2 Cure for Sqnoaling Brakes Brakes squeal when the surfaces become glass smooth. Scrub w1th a wire brush to remove _t_he ingrei‘geg To get maximum power and efi'ic- iency from an engine it is abso- lutely necessary that the roper type, spark plug be used. hen a’ plug is too short it does not bring the firing points far enough into the combustion chamber. Good ig- nition under this condition is im- possible. The engine is bound to be. sluggish and inefficient. A plug that is too long extends too far into the firing chamber. This will cause the lower end of the plug to become overheated, resultâ€" ing in igniting the fuel too early. The correct length of plug fits so that the bottom of the spark plug shell is just flush with the inside wall of the cylinder head and the spark gap extends beyond into the combustion chamber. $3.135, "ififié' évvdibnih'g ' the sqfiealing and makmg the brakes more efl‘ec- A vacuum-operated windshield wiper that, slows down when climbing hills can be operated by hand without damagipg the_ dgvipe tive. Proncr inflation is one of the successes of long tire wear. Under- inflation for long periods may cause excessive strain on the cotton cords of the more flexible balloon tire, which often flexes 10,000,000 times in an ordinary tire life. The car- cass may break. especially if it meets road obstacles at high speed and the tire is probably ruined be- yond repair; Over-inflation also has fl- _.._ a serious effect. on tire wear. Cars so equipped have a tendency to weave on the road. bouncing and absorbing road inequalities with difficulty. A tire overinfbated 10 pounds beyond the recommended pressure will wear out after hav- ing delivered only half the mileage it would give if properly inflated. Kicking tires to see if they are prOperly inflated is futile. The only accurate method is to use a tire gauge, and inflation should be checked at. least once a week. \Vhen driving over an extended journey the wearying effects can be soothed by getting out and walk- ing around for a while. The ner- vous tension of constant driving and the necessity of remaining in a sitting position over long periods are particularly trying, The body is constantly generating poisons which are not. thrown 011' by the exercise. and deep breathing which produce such invigorating results in brisk walking. Do not. partake of a heavy meal immediately after a long drive. when both body and brain are weary. Rest a bit. Relax and invigorate the muscles. clear up the brain. and then it will be possible to start fresh on another tart er the tour. Drivers who do not exercise are likely to get. an attack of autointoxicatien. with its resultant wez'iriness of body and mind. l’ersnns thus att'ected often experience a feeling of mental dc- pressiun and discovumg'ement. and the jul,ll'lll‘}‘. which Shilllltl lie slim- nlating. irrm'es merely an addition to the mental and physical strain which they have been endeavoring in o‘s‘t'tllit'.

In the multitude of modern professions which attract every available young woman. there is one that may seem curious and that is the profession of being an aunt. It is still in its infancy on this contin- ent. but in London. England, the profession is already making great strides. There in bold letters in the telephone book and directories one reads, “Universal Aunts, Ltd.” They have very businesslike ofl‘ices, stirring with activity, and tele- phones and typewriters, but their services are peculiarly personal, for they do anythingmyou could ask A short time ago I read an 'ar- ticle entitled “A Word About Aunts” by Evelyn Gill Klahr. .

PAN mm: was nor MAKE THIS Acton PM on THE nrrz In many instances, a film player’s popularity is gauged by the num- ber of-fan letters he receives. While this is not an infallible rule, it does serve to get a certain standard and at times regulates a player’s salary.
