Helpful Hints for
Automobile Owners

Quite often carburetor trouble may
be traced back to the intake valves.
II one of the intake valves does not
seat properly, or if the valve stem
sticks in its guide occasionally, It will
be a difficult matter to obtain salts
factory adjustment of the carburetor.
With cars having stiff clutch springs
1t is advisable to cover the clutch pedal
foot rest with rubber to prevent the
foot from slipping. Especially in wet
weather will this be found helpful and
restful to the driver. One can also
control the clutch action to better ad-
vantage.
Though speedometers are used TO as
certain the speed at which the car is
being driven, there Is another use, l. e.,
to determine the time to change gears
OF course the time when gears should
be shifted will vary slightly, according
to the conditions under which the car
Is being driven. It may be taken that
when the speedometer hand points to
six miles an hour a change to second
speed should be made. Thus the engine
and the car will be saved the unneces-
sary racking when the engine COM
mences to labor.
A slight dent in fender may be
remedied without damage TO the paint,
with a little care. Two hardwood
blocks should be obtained, one shaped
to the curve Of the under part Of the
fender at the dent, and the other curved
to the contour of the upper surface of
the fender. While the one block is held
under the dent the other is held above
1t. and hit with a hammer until the
dent is smoothed out. II may be well
to heat the under side Of the fender
with a blow torch 10 prevent the paint
cracking The heat should not be too
great, or the paint Will be burned.
Experiments with a mixture Of BEN
zole and kerosene as fuel Indicate that
some little trouble Is likely to arise
from the partial separation of the two
liquids after standing over night. The
kerosene goes 10 the bottom and makes
starting d difficult matter While on
the road vibration keeps the fuels well
mixed.

TURNING THE TABLES

a9Ten days ago it seemed to be al
most certain that Germany would
swallow Roumania at, gulp. The
!, Austro- German, fprces were driving driving
the R.imanians out of Transylyania
and were threatening to overrun
their country from that side, while
on the Danube front, the DobrudJa
region, they were retreating helter-
skelter before the smashing blows
Of Field Marshal Won Mackensen. But
now the tables. seem to be turned
Mackensen has not been able to mold
what he gained and is being driven
back, the .sastro-Gernan troops on
the Pennsylvania front simply rspof'
that the- are "repulsing" attacks.
while Russian army has penetrated
Pennsylvania for distance OF more more
than fifty miles below the BukoWlnaf
border and promises to further en- en-
barrass and menace the operations
of the Central Powers in their Rou-
n,anian campaign.
As a contemporary observes, equally
significant, if not of waning strength,
at least of insufficient strength tor
the task of conquest, is the situation
in the Verdun section, where the
French are now the aggressors and
are reported to be steadily pushing
the weakened army Of the German
Grown Prince from the hills which he
has held so long to the plain Of the
Woevre.
Thus the Roumanian invasion seems
likely at best to prove as indecisive
as German drives in every other quar-
ter. They get to a certain point, but
they meet barriers Of steel beyond
which they cannot advance. In France
they are losing ground; in Rounlania
and other points in the east even Fon
Hindenburg and Mackensen cannot
give them decisive victory. The war
is not over; but everywhere it has
a gloomy look for Germany and Aus
tria. They have made a superhuman
struggle against overwhelming odds,
but the odds appear at last to be
telling.

the war between the states, it will

LAX ATLANTA OBSERVANCE
States Prohibition Law, Says Pol
lard, Must Have Public's
Earnest Support.

Richmond, Nov 13-Speaking on
Law Enforcement" before the
Railroad Y. M. c. A. yesterday
afternoon, Attorney-General John
Garland Pollard urged his hearers
to accept jury service when liquor
cases come to trial, to give the off
GERS of the law their sympathy if
the officers enforce the law, and to
let them know that they will be fought
and driven from office if they fail
to obey the laws mandates. Those
who would wish the law to remain
a nonentity, he said, are generally
politicians with influence, but if the
good citizens created and held among
themselves strong public sentiment
in favor Of law enforcement the new
statute would prevail.
The subject was a proper one for
Sunday discourse, said Mr.. Pollard,
since government, and religion are

that time sixteen States which have

been for the fact that we felt we

were drying women's tears and re-
trieving the wreckage left in the
path of the traffic, we would not have

strength that We have put into the

still have intemperance, what good
will the law do? How can we help?
