crease the resistance of the en-
gine to the forward movement of
the eai. The increase is negli-
gible and the result of the prac-
tice may be disastrous. Even
with the throttle closed in such
a case, gasoline is admitted to
the cylinders and, unexploded, it
condensed and drips down the
cylinder walls. Thus, it washes
off the oil by which the pistons
are lubricated. The potential
damage of such a piactice is ob-

Humps Reduce Friction
nothing so hampers home repairs
to the ears ns a dirty, disordered
garage. Free and unhampered
access to ally part of the ear is
impossible if the garage floor is
littered with empty oil cans,
crates and similar obstructions.
An oily, dirty floor is another
obstacle to the home repairer. A
clean place in which to work is
one of the real inducements to
doing the thing the car needs at
the moment.
Rumble Squeaks Eliminated
Opening the rumble seat fre-
quently is productive of ear-
splitting groans. The hinges of
this seat are among the points
that many motorists neglect to
oil. A very light oil should be
used. It works an almost im-
mediate cure in most cases. It
is well to wipe off all excess lub-

one egg yolk. The water in

ed may be ustil in place of part
of the milk. The egg yolks may
be omitted if liked.

To Adjust Hearings
It is surprising to hear some
motorists declare that they find
traction better on a lough road.

Tho following method is fre-
quently suggested for adjusting

floor, start the wheul spinning

gate votes, for the call authorizes
the election of 8 delegates at

half vote each, in older tto give

ber of delegates for .the States
arid Territories for the 1928 Con-
vention will, under (the call, be
•he same as it was in 1924 except
that two delegates are authorized

USE COMMON SEN
If the flerchants of Naples ad-
vertised in the newspapers of
some big distant city that the
residents of that place could save
through trading in Naples, either
in person or by mail, you would
say that it was not good sense.
You would consider that these out
of town shoppers would have to
spend time and money in making
the trip or

if they ordered by mail. At that,
these];shoppers probably could buy
cheaper from our Herclirnts
whose cost of doing business is
smaller than the big town mer-
chants, and yet it is no more fool-
ish then for the people off Naples
to beleivethat they can buy cheap-
er by going to the expense of a
trip, or buy by mail, goods which
they have not seen.
