The old leather is removed by first
cutting off and driving out the rivets
from the underside. Use this leather
as pattern for cutting the new lin
ing, better still If possible, purchase
the new ready cut leather facing Of
the proper length, width and thickness
from the representative handling the
car. AS the new leather will slight
~ stretch. care should be taken to
make a snug fit. Fasten one end to
the cone by riTeting. draw tightly
around, placing the outside edge Of
the leather about the center Of the
periphery Of the cone and secure with
one rivet in the inside free end Of
the leather. The lining is then forced
up onto the cone into position Now
the rlvet holes should be drilled to
correspond with the holes in the cone,
countersunk and riyeted and braided
BEFORE placing the last set OF rlVets,

face Of the cone
Caution should be taken to suffi-
GENTLY counter sink the rivet heads

make a good joint between the ends
of the leatheT-tO trim OF the edges
with a file and, above all, to see that
the leather fits tightly upon the cone,
as a loose fit will result simply in
dead failure Several applications of
castor oil should be made to the new
lining to make it smooth and pliable-
Quite frequently the jerky, grabbing
action OF a cone clutch is traceable to
exposed rivet heads, due to their not
having been properly oOuntersunk
when placed. This trouble is remedied
only by removing the old rivets, coun-f
terSlu6ing and placing new rlvets IN
their stead. This operation win also
enable one to secure additional ser
vice from an old worn facing. EN-
posed rivet heads tend TO wear little
grooves on the inside face Of flywheel,
queuIy preventing the free olsen
@agement Of the clutch, therefore,
they should receive periodical atten-
ton and prompt remedy.
It is surprising how few motorists
have learned to properly appreciate

of the car a small hand fire extin-

been destroyed by the careless throw

the cause OF an engine failure by the
aid OF a match is another dangerous
practice and, moreover, there isn't

AUTO BUSES ARE PROVING
lTONFIF1T AFEFFts TO OWN ERS.

Remarkable stories are told Of the
rewards gathered by enterprising per-
sons who have established motor bus
lines in various parts of the country.
There seems no doubt but that a wide
awake man who can size up transport
alton requirements and locate accord
ingly, can find in nearly any part Of
the country, a fertile field for the mo-
tor bus.
An auto line from Newburgh, n "
to Cornwall, n Y, paid so handsomely
that the owner put in a second line
from Port Chester to White Plains
with equal success. Other recent in
stances Of profitable operation of auto
busses come from Chicago. AIinneapo-

Many of those operating busses have
bought the chassis only, having bodies
built and mounted in their own cities
and according to their ideas and re-
quirements.
