RESOLUTIONS IN HONOR OF REV.
E. E. RiCKS.

Roanoke, Va, October 6.-In Wis
ions Of the dark night, we dreamed
of Joy and life, but the truth that
God had need for our Pastor in an
other field Of labor, awoke us with
such intense force, that we are unable
to fully realize the change that Is to
take place.
Our Bible School Ship was sailing
smoothly over tho seas Of Unity, Love
+ and Animation and there was much
rejoicing but 10, and behold, all at
once without any expectation our
school ship ran upon the rocks and
1t seems that we are about to be
separated and many despaired be-
cause our Captain, who has guided
our ship for these three years,
without any mishap or accident and
who has had the confidence OF all
passengers on board, is leaving our
ship for another.
He has been to us q star shining
forth, often sending ray Of hope to
us, when we were so discouraged. He
has been our Counsellor, our Spirit
ual Advisor and Financial Aide.
Through his efforts our Bible School
room was made more beautiful, more
comfortable and more like room in
which we were to talk on tho beauti-
full things OF life. A wonderful re-
suit was obtained through the Mem
bership Campaign and for so many
things are we truly grateful.
Rev. Kicks has walked circum-
specify before the people and he will
long be sought after, not only by us
as a Bible School, but by all Chris
tan people in this community. We
were so happy with him. And now
fool FNannvSny
Like child crying for light,
Way down, somewhere in the dark
With great high wall around us
Beating our hands against the
Rocks, crying for light"
Because Of these things we put on
record the following resolutions:
That in going to Newark, N. j.,
Rev. 70. E. Kicks and family carry
with them the sincere desire and
best wishes Of the officers and men,
bers Of the First Baptist Bible
School, for a long and prosperous life
filled with happiness and love.
That we will each one erect q
monument in our hearts for his SCR
vice and strive to put in practice
some Of the theory he has given us.
That as further mark Of esteem
in which we hold him, we present to
Rev. Kicks this Solid Gold Watch
Chain and Six Crisp One Dollar Bills
1.-TWO for each year Of his service with
u.s.. We give a Gold Chain because
Gold is that which is least furnished
and as each tiny link of this chain
is securely bound, so is the love be-
tween the Bible School and Rev.
Kicks.
That a copy of these resolutions
be given the press and a copy given
Rev. Kicks.
Done by order Of the First Baptist
Bible School, Roanoke, Virginia.

II IN and to no pastor has 4 people
been more unfalteringly loyal.
He is man of unquestioned in
tcgrity. No one doubts any state.
ment he makes. His credit Is gilt
edged everywhere. His personal pa
per would be good in any Roanoke
Bank. His acquaintance among the
business men OF the City has been
wide and without, exception they
trust him as man who can beabso.
solutely relied upon. He IS man OF
rare executive ability He has adj
mnistered the affairs of our Church
for these three years with unvarying
success, which is atiested by the fact
that during his pastoratc the small
Indebtedness which the Church owed
when he came to us, has been paid,
also the four thousand GA ,000,00l
dollars, which were borrowed, to
make extensive improvements. after
no came to us as pastor, have been
been paid and more than seven hun
dred ($700.00) dollars remains in
tho bank to the credit Of the church.
He has been sought for his good judg
ment everywhere IN the city. When
the president Of the great Norfolk
and Western Railway Company want
cd delicate or an important work
accomplished Rev. Kicks has usually
been the choice. Always every task
committed to him has been done and
we'll done. He has the faculty Of
leadership to rare degree. Under
his leadership the church has devel-
oped into an ideal for other Church
es to aspire to.
But dear members and friends, Our
Moses has gone from us, yet in tho
beginning of his great work But re
Numbering the promise Of Israel, we
pray that we may learn to lean more
and more upon Him who said, GAS
I was with Moses, SO I will be with
Thee" Il will never leave thee nor
forsake thee" We know, that he will
ever live in the hearts OF the men,
bers and friends Of the Church, live
in the hearts and lives Of the citi-
Zcns Of Roanoke.
Therefore, We, the Officers place
on record the following resolutions:
That Rev. Kicks leaves the First
Baptist Church Of Roanoke Virginia,
without the consent of tho Officers
and Members of the Church. That
in leaving, we recognize q loss that
prostrates us at the feet Of Jesus
Christ causing us to plead for a full
or consciousness Of the presence OF
His Holy Spirit in this hour OF Girls
is since no man can adequately fill
his place mado vacant among us.
That we pay tribute to the high and
lofty progressive Christian Principles
he brought to pass in the Church.
That we recognize in the loss Of
Rev. IQicks as pastor one Of the fore
most leaders OF the race, one Of the
most worthy citizens, the highest type
Of Christian Gentleman and Prince |
among Preachers.
That we extend to him and his
our best wishes born Of love for
sailing in life and that as a :.
further mark of our esteem, we pre-
present him A Solid Gold Medal, suit
ably engraved attached to solid |
gold chain presented by the Bible 1
School,) also Rain-coat and Pursei
Of Fifty ($50.00) dollars. ]
Further be it resolved that q copyi
Of these Resolutions be spread upon :

Not infrequently the bolts which pass through the spring eye will be worn nearly through in the course of a sea sons active running. Many cars have no lubricating equipment for these small parts and they wear out rapidly under the stresses of travel
 Front Wheels
 The average car owner is quite like ly in the desire to give the rear wheels all the attention they need. to forget the front wheels. Now the front wheels should be given careful inspection at least once a month, particularly those of the type fitted with ball bearings of the cup and cone type. The cones wear rapidly because they are subjected to heavy stresses in travel.
 Bearing Adjustment
 In adjusting cup and cone bearings. these parts should be so tight that play between wheel and bearing is removed and yet the wheel should turn freely without any suggestion of binding. If the cones are to tightly adjusted. the balls are wedged in and quickly cut into the races.
 Planetary Gear Noises Noisy action of the planetary gears. such as the Ford uses, is generally caused by failure of lubricatio or by wear. The most important thing tc watch in this connection is the oiline and If this is properly maintained there will be little trouble with noisy | operation.
 "6rooming"
 Chronic cases of faulty action in the multiple disc clutch. are sometimes | caused by what is known as broom ing This means that the sides of the keyways of the edges of the disc hay, | become frayed, so that the plates can. not make a satisfactory contact. The

Practical Paragraphs

Hard Steering
 In mechanisms which have the steer ing control levers running down through the center of the steering col umn. it frequently happens that rust forms and this makes difficult the operation of steering. The remedy is easily applied and consists in taking out the rod and it's surrounding tube member, cleaning off the rust, oiling the parts thoroughly and assembling them.
 Back Lash In Steering Gear
 Back lash or play in the steering unit is a very common failing. On most types of worm and worm and wheel re- duction gears. which are located at the bottom of the post, the shaft of the worm wheel is equipped with an eccen- tric pushing. By turning this pushing so that the gear teeth are forced into proper mesh, the back lash may be taken up.
 Sagging Frame
 It is common to find car frames that sag in the middle, after a considerable period of service. Sometimes this con- dition produces difficulty in clutch shifting and other mechanical opera tions because the various parts have been twisted little out of alignment The proper way to cure a sagging frame is to fit a truss rod. with turn buckle, under the sagging portion of the frame. If the car owner cannot carry out the repair himself, any ma = chine shop or garage can do the work Lost Motion In Springs In inspecting the springs attention should be given to the spring hangers and other subsidiary parts.

MAXWELL, CHALMERS CO-OPERATE, REALLY
 ONE COMPANY NOW

Maxwell and Chalmers are now prac tically one company, says MT. Roper Of the R. D. Roper Motor company. state distributor for the Chalmers and Maxwell COTS. Word has now come that under the new plan of sales align ment of the MaXwe.I and Chalmers companies the United States is divided into 57 districts and in each district a supervisor is placed to represent the Chalmers cars. Maxwell car, and Max well trucks. These districts have been carefully outlined SD that each terri tory is logical geographical division and each supervisor has been carefully selected: the especial needs of each territory considers from all angles and choices of men and headquarters made only after intensive deliberation.
 The men chosen for the important posts as supervisors have had years of automobile training ard have proved by their work that they are qualified in every way to act as personal represen- tatives of the Chalmers and Maxwell factories.
 To Improve Service
 By this arrangement the factories will virtually be brought fo the doors of the different dealers and it is expect
  ! tween the factories and the dealers will result which will il turn result in | further improving the high standard of service to Chalmers and Maxwell own CTS.
 The new appointees to the supervisor positions have already met at a De l troit conference for instructions and are> on their way to their respective ! territories with the determinatio of making this season the banner year for the Chalmers and Maxwell companie
 Rain A StimuIsnt
 Automobile business has been af- fected by the rains but the effect has 1 been to stimulate the business" says 1 MT Roper. We are now unloading Chalmers cars from the railroad in the 1 rain in order to fill pressing orders for same. People are waiting to get their l Chalmers to take their vacation in au- tomobile, others are needing their cars for general use around the valley and can not wait.
 | One advantage that has come to us as a result of the rains is the fact that i many of our Chalmers users have for l the first time found out that their cars have practically unlimited power It is impossible to stick a Chalmers car if and this rain has convinced many of our patrons that such is the case.

NO TROUBLE AT ALL

A total of 1744 miles without even punctUre was the touring record hung up this summer by A. L. Warrington of the Chevrolet Motor company of California.
 MT. Warrington has been going from his residence in Oalankd to his summer home in Santa Cruz for ween end visits. The distance each way is approximately 109 miles, and four hours has been the average running time. For eight successive weeks, Warrington piloted his Chevrolet touring car over the round trip route. and wound up the season with a record for not stopping a single minute be- cause of any form of grief The Chev- rolet gave him an average of better than sixteen miles to the gallon of gas- oline for the entire 1744 miles.
