WASHINGTON, Aug Next. an air

With the Atlantic ocean tNide crossed
by airplanes and twice more by a di-
rigible. the air service Of the United
States army is now laying plans 10 cir
cumnayieate the globe with an Ameri-
can army airplane next summer.
This is the first public announcement
The air service has maintained absO-

Major w II. Frank, Of the air SER

Of a flight around the world General

out the plans.
About Two Weeks Believed
Time Enough.
Major Frank is positive that a Mar
tin bombing plane. equipped with twin
Liberty Twelve motors Of 100 horse
power each. can fly around the world
In less than thirty days.
Air service officers expect the voyage
will be made I'm little more than two
weeks. but they prefer TO make con-
servative estimates.
Even II the flight takes 30 days. it will
break all records The fastest time

The army flyers will start from New
York about August 4 1920 as late
summer and early autumn are consid-
cred the best for long-distance living.
The flight will be made by way of
Greenland and Iceland. thus enabling
the plane TO cross the Atlantic in short
jumps For this reason the army can
make the flight with regular land type
of plane. instead OF a flying boat

II your engine misses, find out why
and correct the fault Immediately.
Running car with a missing engine
means a very severe strain on all the
part of it.
When the engine misses the first
thing to do Is to find out which cylin-
DER is missing. This can best be done
by making the cylinders miss one aft
er the other, by short-circuiting the
spark plugs. Thus, If you were to
sfort-circuit the spark plug Of cylinder
NO. /, you would prevent the spark
and II the cylinder was not missing
before 1t will now miss, and the miss
ing of the engine will be doubled. On
the other hand, If No. ! cylinder was
missing, you could not make it miss,
and there will be no change In the
running of the engine. So If you short
circuit the plugs one after the other
you will finally come to one, which,
when short-circuited, will not cause
the engine to run differently than be-
fore. This is the missing cylinder
The illustration shows how to
short-eircuit the plugs. BY touching
a screw driver to the plug and the
ground" as shown, the current will
go through the screw driver and not
through the plug, and SO there will
not be spark.
OF the Three Essentials. Ignition
or Compression are generally the
cause of missing.

Ninety per cent. Of the time loss of
power Is due to the fact that the
valves need to be ground Valves

of every 1000 miles of running. 1t will
pay to do this, as loss of compression
means los sof power, and loss of pow
