tention, and many have been run more
than this without requiring more than
a change Of oil.
When my car is standing and the en-
CINE is running with the brakes set
there 10 a knock in tho gears. What
causes this7
You state that there is a knock In
the gears when the motor is running
idle, but you do not say whether you
mean the timing gears or the gears in
the gear box. If 1t is the timing gears
that are making the noise the trouble
must be caused either by the gears
being loose on their shafts or else the
bearings are Loose. In order to find
where the trouble is it will be neces-
sary to 90 over the motor. If the knock
Is in the gears in the gear box 1t must
be caused by loose bearings.
Will you please tell me whether in
making connection between wires
Il 10 preferable to splice the wires Or
loop tho ends and hook the loops to.
sether?
Splicing the wires has the advantage
Of making a joint that IS compact.
Such a joint takes up very little more
space than the wire itself, and a spliced
joint is also very easy to i~nsulate. as it
can be very readily wrapped with tape.
This joint makes a good electrical con
nection and also Is more flexible than
the loop type. The main advantage Of
the loop joint is that 1t is not so easily
pulled apart.

CANDIDATES MUST GIVE BONDS

Canada some years ago came to the
conclusion that a mob of candidates
for public office is a public nuisance.
The Canadians are a hard-headed,
practical and sensible folk. They took
steps accordingly to abate the nui-
sance
A law was enacted to this effect:
ANY citizen who wishes to run for Of
flee must file a bond with the proper
authority. If his vote exceeds a given
minimum the amount of the bond is
returned to the candidate. If the bal
lots for him fall below that set mini
mum he forfeits the money to the do
minion, the province or the municipal
;ty, according as the office desired was
national, provincial or municipal.
The effect of the law is reported to
be good. Tom, Dick and Harry think
twice before inflicting their candidacy
on a long-suffering public. They are
not keen to risk the loss of their
money. The number of candidates is
diminished. The funds of those whose
vote falls below the minimum help the
political unit to pay the expenses of
the election.
Almost any citizen has a right 10
stand for office. But the public has a
right to protect itself against abuse
of the right and the evils that ensle.

What is tho cause Of motors failing
to pick up, misfire, ETC., after slowing
down for a short distance?
Quite often loading up of fuel IN the
inlet passages causes this condition,
but more frequently poor carburetor

one with two jets, can be adjusted for
quick pick up.
have a four cylinder motor in which
the crank shaft is slightly out Of
alignment. Is it practical to use this
shaft as It is?
If the crankshaft Is out Of alignment
so that it Is noticeable in engine oper-
alton, it will pay to have the shaft
repaired, If that is possible. or have a
new shaft installed. You can over
come the difficulty for awhile by TAX
ing up the misalignment in the bear
ings. but with the crank shaft itself
sprung, the trouble will return.
Should tho use Of hard water, con-
tanning lime, in the radiator Of a car
be avoided?
Water containing lime should be
avoided. Use rain water instead. Wa

The consumption Of current is pro

Can you suggest something?
Provided you r certain that 1t is
