Aspect of Profession

The practical aspect of engineering
and how closely it is connected with
the present war is to be demonstrated
at the annual summer convention OF
the Society of Automotive Engineers
to be held at Triangle Park. Dayton,
Ohio. at which convention practically
one-half of the time will be given over
to demonstrations and exhibits of war
apparatus which has been developed by
the members of the society. This APP

THE EXPERTS SAY.

It il a good plan occasionally to see
that the nuts Of the spring clips are
tight. Loose spring clips permit ex-
cess stress to be thrown on the center
of the leaves. from which breakage
results.
Ono Of the most commonly neg
lected parts of the car. as far as lub-
rication goes, is the clutch operating
mechanism. In the case of disc
clutches running in oil the lubrica-
ton Of the thrust collar and the lever
operating 1t is automatic. But with
clutches that do not operate in a bath
of oil. the thrust collar and lever re-
quire oiling by hand. The service Of
these parts Is exacting and frequent
fabrication Of the ball thrust bearing
and Of the end Of the lever which ac-
tuates it is necessary. Furthermore,
the bearing Of the clutch pedal and
Grating linkage should be fabricated
frequently.
While 1t is q wise precaution to
throw out the clutch when rounding
a sharp corner, it also has a benefi-
cial effect upon the tires. Whenever
the car tends to skid. due to its de-

clude the types of German, French and
British engines The exhibits will also
include latest types of captured enemy
planes as well as leading types of our
allies fighting planes.
A still further practical aspect of the
demonstrations will be the operation OF
the machines for the manufacture of
special airplane parts such as pro-
peller blades. The dominating thought
of the exhibits and demonstrations will
be a comprehensive presentation Of en-
gineering contributions to the war in
the automotive field.
The many papers that will be pre-
scented will be more Of a popular nature
summarizing the developments along
different lines during the war period
rather than heavy, involved Technical
addresses and discussions. The session
will be war session from start to I'm
ish and all subjects under considera-
ton will be those directly concerned

One Of the nastiest blemishes on the
body work of the car is tar. which Is
frequently splashed on the polished
surfaces from the road. A good SOL
vent for tar is butter. which should be
spread over the spots and allowed to
stand for some minutes before being
carefully wiped off, when it will bring
the tar with 1t. Kerosene also may be
used locally, but with care, since 1t may
|attack the finish.
