"HERE has been so much talk re-
Gently about burning carbon out
of the cylinders that the good, old
fashioned remedy-an application of
kerosene-is about forgotten.
It is without doubt a wonderful adj
vance to be able to run your car into
a garage, have the cylinders opened
up from the top and the carbon re-
moved by means of an oxygen flame
This, however, costs some money, al
though not much, ties the car up from
one to three hours and causes a certain
amount of wear and tear on the threads
of the various parts removed to get
into the cylinders.
Kerosene Prevents Carbon Deposits.
But by squirting a quantity of kero-
sene into each cylinder occasionally,
much of the necessity of having car
bon removed would be avoided and the
cylinders and rings would be kept IN
better condition.
To you who are reading this-why
don't you try kerosene in your motor,
and set certain days when you will ap-
ply it?
1t is better to apply it two or three
nights in succession, than it is to ap-

Shifting;
HOW IT'S DONE
Some Pointers to the Novice,
and the Old Timer, Too,
For That Matter.

The most difficult task for the driv-
ing novice to master is gear shifting
The disengagement of the clutch, to-
gether with the speed lever movement
is quite as difficult at first as patting
the head with one hand and rubbing
the chest with the other. If there
were not so many things to do all at
the same time the beginner would be
less confused. However, driving is
simple when once mastered.
Preparatory to starting the engine
one should always be cautious. First
note that the gear lever is in neutral
position, then set the emergency
brake This accomplished, the danger
Of being run over by ones own car is
eliminated. The next important step
is to fully retard the spark lever. With
this in a safe position TO avoid
kick back" and the throttle partially
open, the engine is ready for the
switch and cranking. Assuming that
the engine is started, advance the
spark to normal position on the quad
rant and adjust the hand throttle un-
til the motor runs smoothly and with
out racing.
The driver is then ready to take his
position behind the wheel Since most
operators use the foot accelerator in
preference to the hand throttle, let me
assume its use in the present instance.
Before starting the car it may be well
to note a few 'dOnts."
some Gear-shift DOn'tH
Don't place the hands above the CEN
ter of the steering wheel at any time;
don't take a death grip on the steer
ing wheel, as it looks awkward and is
tiresOme and dangerous; don't race the
motor; don't move the gear lever with
out dtsengaging the clutch; don't let
the clutch in fast especially when
starting the car from a standing point;
don't move the foot away from the
clutch pedal when the car is moving
i should always be in position; don't
start the car on any other than first
speed; don't slip the clutch too much,
as it will burn or wear beyond repair
don't watch the fellow behind, as he is
watching you; don't take your eyes off
the road for any reason whatever
while the car is rolling.
With engine started, and bearing
these "dOn'ts" in mind, proceed to start
the car. First, throw out the clutch,
release the emergency brake and place
the gear lever in first speed Then let
clutch come back easily, accelerat ting
the engine IS it takes the load. When
the car is rolling, release the clutch
again and shift from first to interme-
date gear.
This operation must be accomplished
before the momentum already gained
is lost, or it will be necessary to start
over again on first speed. Having
gained the intermediate speed and as
suming the next to be the high, one
should accelerate considerably and then
repeat the former clutch and lever
movement

BIG VALUE THESE DAYS IN
MOST OF THE AUTOMOBILES

In recent years there has been a de-
cided tendency on the part of automo-
bile manufacturers to spend large sums
Of money for equipment for their cars.
Everything that human ingenuity could
devise to add to the safety and comfort
of the motorists has been placed upon
automobiles by the manufacturers. In
spite Of the added expense of such
equipment the price of motor cars has
been reduced instead Of advanced. Mod
ern machinery and modern methods
have enabled the makers Of motor cars
to give the public more value for every
