A POINTER FOR AUTOlSTS.

In cars which are so designed that
the multiple disk clutch and change
speed gearing are enclosed in single
case, whether in the same or in diff
ferent compartments which are in
communication with one another, it is
very necessary that the fabrication be
attended to with far greater care than
is commonly required with the type of
transmission in which the change gear
is enclosed by itself. The efficiency
of the multiple disk clutch depends
i'm large measure upon the quality and
distribution of the lubricant, and the
danger of abrasion of the parts where
dirty or used oil is employed is far
greater in this than in the ordinary
type of bearing. Hence the lubricant
in the case should be chosen with re-
gard to it's fluidity and body, and
should be renewed as frequently as
may he necessary to keep it free from
dirt or metallic particles, while at fire.
qIent intervals the contents Of the case
should he thoroughly purged with
gasoline to wash out all impurities
