not take a great deal to reduce the cooling efficiency of radiator. Would suggest that you use strong alkaH solution in the cooling system, and, especially the radiator, in order to remove the foreign matter and bring it back to it's normal efficiency.
 Motoring Departm ent The Herald: In your last weeks issue you instruct to determine whether there is equal compression in all the cylinders. How do you determine this?
 Can you recommend a recipe for a rim paint to prevent rusting of in side of rims, and the sticking of tubes and shoes to same "A. T. H.
 The compression of each cylinder is detected by hand, that is to say resistance offered by each cylinder when cranking is carefully noted and compared with the others. If there is leak in any one of the cylinders, it will. not offer any resistance. You can determine the faulty cylinder by opening all the pet cocks except that one of the cylinder being tested.
 A mixture of shellac and graphite is good for rims. The rims should be
 
 removed. One or two coats of shellac and graphite will be found quite sat- isfactory.

 Motoring Department. The Herald: Can you suggest the cause for a mys- terious overheating of my engine? Competent repair men have searched several times without effect. The wa ter pump is all right and the water circulates. The oil circulates. The mixture is correct The timing of the spark and valves is right. I do not drive with a retarded spark. In every respect the engine is all right, ex- cept that it overheats when the throttle is opened for hill climbing or other necessity I have had the cylin- dersscleanedi of carbon and the valves ground and the compression made good. The overheating began this summer and gets worse. It is 1913 car, four cylinder. There is no trouble with the radiator nor any part of the water circulating system that can be found; but the water will boil almost as soon as the throttle is we'll opened up. Thanking you for any suggestion.-H.
 The overheating must be due to a defective radiator. While you may not be able to detect anything wrong with it, nevertheless there may be a great amount of deposit upon the inner walls of the radiator. It does

Water Does Damage.

The flushing tank to the closet
upstairs over the Oppenheimer &
Bermann clothing store sprung a
leak Saturday night and the water
ran down the east side wall of the
store room, flooding the floor in the
rear part of the store. The water
wet the clothing in one section Of
the shelving, but aside from caus-
ing considerable extra work, little
damage was done to the goods, as
drying and re-pressing will put
them in good condition. Some suit
cases were injured, however, the
water spotting them. How long the
water flowed is not known, but peo-
pie who saw it coming from the
building Sunday afternoon tried to
inform the owners but could not To-
cate them.

The Board of Sunday Schools OF
the Methodist Episcopal church has
sent to every Methodist school a
call to help load the Christmas ship
with gifts for the orphans of war
ring nations. The local Methodist

ming to aid in this, and gifts are to
be left at the Foster furniture store

ested take prompt action and that
gifts be numerous and generous.
Bishop Mcdowell says: "A battle
ship laden with gifts from the chill
dren of America to the broken fam
lilies of war-torn Europe is more po-
tent for peace than whole fleet
weighted with deadly ammunition"
The following list of gifts is sug-
gested as suitable for the Christmas
ship. All offerings must be new,
not second hand: ..
Mittens, sweaters, muftlers, coats,
suits, dresses, toys, picture books,

gifts as above stated. Tuesday and
Wednesday. Place, Fosters furni-
ture store, and the box will be duly
packed and shipped. Please do not
telephone Fosters about gifts, but
