HEARD ABOUT AUTOMOBILES HERE AND THERE
DRAIN OIL FROM
 CRANK CASE OF CAR
Oil Becomes Diluted With Gasoline
 About Every Four Weeks

At this time of the year the owner of a good motor car ought to drain the oil from the crank case at least every four weeks said F. H. Rengers sales manager of the Moon Motor Car company of St. Louis. If he will do this he will frequently find that the oil has been sadly diluted with gasoline which has gotten past the piston and into the oil This destroys it's lubri- cation qualities and 1t really becomes worse than no oil at all. During the hot summer season it is advisable to use a somewhat heavier oil than in the winter" continued Rengers- Tt IS also well in the hot season to run the carhuretor with as thin a mixture as possible.
 "A grave mistake made by some drivers is to hold the choke toe long after starting the motor and some often run the car with the choke closed. The effect of this is to thI 9w into the firing chamber raw gasoline which eventually goes down into the lubrlcating oil and this has the se- rious effect of causing the pistons t0 score, brings about premature piston ring wear and cylinder wear and In- creases the smoke from the exhaust and causes excessive cabon in the cyl. tnders"

lWon1en Turn Out 20 Per Cent Goodyear Cornpany's
 Product at Akron, Ohio
Four Thousand Six Hundred Men Enter Government Service and Their Places Are Filled By Women Who Are Paid in Accordance With the Service Rem
 dered the Same as Men

The unpreceden demands-both mil- litary and industrial-upon our country $ man power are fast fulfilling prophecies made at our entry into the war, that when we finally took our place with our allies on a gigantic war basis, women would fill the places of men in our great industrial plants. In the mammoth plant of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber com pany at Akron, O., women are now turn ing out 20 per cent of that company s output
 Many of them are engaged in work that 1t was thought could not be turned out except by men, yet in actual perform ance, in much of this work, they have actually outdone men, Goodyear labor department figures shows that nearly 5000 women and girls are now employed in that plant, many of them on work that requires the most sl1ilful operation.
 Since the close of the school year there has been a perceptible influx of school teachers. These teachers have se- lected the factory as their workshop be- cause of the opportunity to earn good wage and because of their real desire to perform a patriotic duty toward their country III HelplHS tO Speeu up pfouuc- tion of war and other materials.
 More than 46O0 men have left the com pany to enter the federal service-and no factory can lose this number of strong, able-bodied men and not miss them. But thorough trial of women in their places has demonstrated that pro duction will not suffer-
 Here are some of the things that wom- en are doing at the Goodyear factory: Finishing tires, cutting and splicing fab ric for balloons, weighing rubber, mold ing and trimming rubber heels, operat- ing electrical industrial trucks, making gas masks, operating refining and strain ing machines in retaining rubber. run ming rubber washing machines, splicing and trimming tire tread bands, separat- ing rubber sheets that become stuck to- getber in the long voyage from the crude

rubber plantations, making tubes and working as clerks in the various depart ments.
 In the matter of wages the women are extremely fortunate. No discrimna ton in the rate of pay between men and women is made. The women's rate is based on the principle that the labor cost is in no case to be higher than if it were done by men, In the amount and quality of work performed, women work as efficiently as men, but there are certain factory operations which they the unable to perform. For instance, women finish tires as well as men, but they are not physically able to carry around the heavy metal cores on which the tires are built
 So this part of the work is still done by men, and the womens rate of pay de- termined by the portion of the work they actually perform. Wherever independent of other help they are paid the same as men for the same work.
 In the employment department, women are doing the hiring of women, and special policewomen have been placed or the factory police staff, whose work is chiefly among the women.

party of 40 deaf mutes. on their way to the national convention for deaf mutes at Philadelphia, stopped off at Akron,O., last week, for visit to the plant of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company They were met of- ficially at the station and given a tour about the city in automobiles, after which they were conducted through the mammoth tire plant They were particularly interested in the success of their similarly afflicted brothers, five hundred of whom are employed at this factory. Goodyear has for several years encouraged the employemtn of mutes, since experience has shown that the ability to hear and talk is not necessarily an insurmountable handi- cap in the battle of life. These mutes are among the best workmen in the plant,

Mistake of Perkins

From the PhlIadeIphla TeIegrapn.
 Speaking at dinner, Senator William B. King of Utah referred to the little mistakes that one is liable to make, and told the following story:
 Sometime ago Perkins had a private telephone installed between his place oi business and his home. Even as he was trying it out for the first time busi- ness friend from an adjacent town en- tered the office.
