Motor OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES ex-
plain how a timer works on an en-
CINE when II Is advanced or retard-
ed. Also why il knocks on a Hill
and why it stops when spark is re-
tarded.
The first purpose OF a timer is to
cause a spark TO occur just as the
piston passes over dead centre. be-
ginning the power stroke. When the
explosion occurs it forces the piston
down rapidly. The next power
stroke gets the spark at the same
time, but the piston is going so
fast that il does not get the eX-
plosion pressure until too far down.
We advance the spark so that it will
come at dead centre or even before
IL. The explosion pressure is adj
vanced at the same time and presses
on the piston near the tip OF the
stroke, giving mare power. If we
run a car up a hill the engine is
slowed down by the extra work and
we must retard the spark. other
wise we get the explosion pressure
on the piston coming up, which
makes a knocking sound or may
even stop the engine.

The Essex was built to meet the
demand for a car that would give
comfortable and enduring service,
that possessed the qualities that ap-

meet every performance requirement
and still was neither large, high

It is the manner in which it full

 Adoo will wear no rags. No
 doubt MT. McAdoo will cut ex- penses as much in proportion, as his critics, in order to help
 carry the loan. Asking him to
 scrimp in order to invest in Lib
 erty bonds (which he asks of
 others) is quite different from
 asking him to scrimp in order to get along on a salary that is
 less than he could draw else where-to donate instead of invest.
 The average man will see one efficient man drawing ten dol lars day while another much less efficient man draws five, and say it is a fair division. If that first man deserves his ten because of his part in produc- tion, then there are other men with such wonderful ability that they may earn thousands. Private business pays the big men monster salaries because they earn them. Should not the government at least pay it's big men substantially larger salaries than they receive now? Otherwise only men with inde- pendent fortunes can afford to hold the big government posi- tions. That is not a desirable situation in a peoples govern ment. It surely would be wis CT to pay the man at the head of the railroads a big salary and have the roads run right, than to put in a man of lesser ability and have the roads run poorly.
