A CRANK TESTERS TAFT.

Long Beach, N. Y.-William How ard Taft, former president, has re- ceived a six-page letter from a Long Beach man every day for the last five years.
 The postmaster has received let ter from the former chief executive of the nation asking relief from the unknown correspondent and request ing that the local authorities investi- gate the situation.
 In all, 1895 letters of the same kind and from the same mysterious per son have been received, the letter to the local postmaster states, only the first line of each letter being de- cipherable. That reads: Full many a sun of purest rays entered the dark unfathomed caves of ocean bear" The rest of the six-page missive con- sists of incoherent ramblings. The signature cannot be made out.

c. F. H. writes: At 15 miles per hour, the engine of our car makes q tapping sound, which develops into a knock at 20 to 25 mile speed Can you suggest the probable cause of this?
 Answer: We do not know enough about your particular case so that we can deal with it specifically, but the following are among the causes of such sounds. Loose connecting rod bearings; loose main bearing; loose wrist pin; piston ring broken or loose in groove; piston loose in cylinder; timing gears loose on shafts or teeth broken; cylinder Cor the whole engine) loose on it's supports; top of piston striking shoulder worn in cylinder bore; crankshaft out of true or crank pin out of round; fan blades striking something; cam worn or loose on shaft; cam follower loose in guide or loose valve adjustment; spark too far advanced; preignition from spark-plug points becoming red hot; missed explosion; compression too high for present day heavy gaso- line; low compression in one or more cylinders, causing weak explosions therein; weak mixture. in certain cyl finders from air leaks or bad man. fold design, resulting in uneaven ac- tion; certain cylinders not receiving proper cooling and therefore preig hitting and carbon deposits.
 REFINING ENGINE
 J. F C.. writes: The keyway, se- curing the timing gear on the cam shaft of my engine broke and had to have new one cut in different place. Can you tell me how to set the gears, under these circumstances, so that the valves shall be correctly timed?
 Answer: If there was a tooth marked on the cam shaft gear, which was intended to mesh between two market teeth of it's mater gear, you should be able to mark a new tooth on the cam shaft gear which should bear exactly the same relation as to angle to the new keyway as the old marked tooth did to the old keyway. Meshing this newly marked tooth as the old one was designed to be meshed, should give you the original timing. In case you cannot do this accurately and your engine has tim ing marks upon it's flywheel, you will have to set the engine on one of these for example "exhaust opens 1 and 2" then set the cam shaft so that the exhaust valve of one of these cylinders is just beginning to unseat, then slip the gear on its shaft, with the keyway lined up and mesh it with its mate, when in this position.

metal the conductivity of which be- comes less as it becomes heated, so that while it does not offer much re- sistance to the intermittent ignition current it becomes hot and offers a large resistance to the continuous flow of current resulting from leav- ing the switch lon" and thus reduces it's volume much below what it would be if the resistance unit were not used.
 CENTER BOLT IN REAR SPRING
 E. G. c. asks: Is the center bolt necessary in the Ford rear-spring ? l find that there is none in mine. One garage man tells me that it should be replaced and another says that it is not required, as the fasten- CTS on the spring will hold it in posi- tion and that the bolt is used only to hold the leaves in place while the spring is being installed.
 Answer: The bolt should be used and it should pass through the arched channel member and be secured with nut, below. The clips do the main duty of holding the spring to the cross-m member, but the bolt assists them greatly in pre- venting sidewise shifting of the body on the spring. If it is not in place and the clips are the least bit loose the body is not securely positioned against severe side sways and slews I o

BURNED OUT RESISTANCE UNIT

w. T. writes: I accidentally left the ignition switch Ion" over night and my engine would not start the next morning. Supposing that the only trouble was an exhausted bat tery, had it recharged, but still could get no spark. The garage man, who came up and corrected the trou- ble, later reported that the resistance unit had burned out. What is this part and how does it work?
 Answer: It is usually in the form of a small circular casing, enclosing a coil of fine bare wire, that is in- cluded in circuit with the spark coil primary and the timer. Frequently it is mounted on the time distributor head. Its function is to limit the cur rent passing through the coil wind ing, so that it may rot become over heated and also so that the battery may not be exhausted too rapidly. The resistance wire is made of a

ADVANTAGE OF PNEUMATIC
 TRUCK TIRES.

K One of the important advantages which pneumatic cord truck tires have over regular solid tire equip ment is that their operation IS prac- tically independent of road and weather conditions. Just what this difference is was recently on the big transcontinental motor truck tour now in progress, consisting of an army train of 60 solidtired army trucks accompanied by a big pneu- matic-tired truck from the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company's Akron Boston express line. As the story goes, the townspeople of a Wyoming city had prepared big feast for the men composing the truck train, in anticipation of their coming.
 But a terrible rain storm trans formed the roads into a veritable swamp, through which the solid-tired trucks were able to make no prog ress, The big Goodyear truck, how ever, carrying the band of 15 men, succeeded in getting through, and the band boys sat down to feat that the entire crowd had been expected to get away with. Following the feast, the cattlemen put on an old festival including such thrillers as a "rounr up" and "broncho- busting"

sides of the cross-section, the fabric is quite abruptly bent The greater the flattening, the more acute, the bending. Every part of the casing bends and straightens out, in turn, each time the tire makes revolution and this constant bending finally breaks the material in the same way that wire will finally break if bent at a single point enough times and sharply enough with the fingers. The material of well inflated tire has to bend but little and that is why it lasts so much longer than that of a tire than is run nearly flat.

]. (. J. Q. asks: Can carbon deposits be removed from the cylinders of my engine without having to dismantle it?
 Answer: There are some engines, which can be fairly we'll cleaned of carbon by scraping the carbonized surfaces, through the openings form ed by removing the valve caps and q few engines have plugged opening in each cylinder head, through the water jacket, through which scraping can be done. Specially formed steel scrapers, with curved handles, which can be introduced we'll into the cylin- der can be bought or made for this purpose. When the piston is at top stroke, it's head can usually be reach ed. Another method is to burn out the deposits, through the openings above referred to, by the oxygen pro- cess, which consists of introducing piece of lighted wax-taper into each cylinder and then admitting oxygen gas, so that the flame of the taper spreads. to the carbon deposits and consumes them--the gas being sup piled through a flexible jet, capable of reaching all internal parts and 1CdulAS tAc COMDuSJiOH thereto. AL most all garages have the oxygen ap- paratus. Still another method is to introduce quantity of decarboniz- ing liquid into each cylinder and to let it remain in the compression space until it disintegrates the de- posits to such an extent that they are blown out with the exhaust, when the engine is briskly run. Such liquid decarbonizers are obtainable at most garages. Sometimes more than one application is required to give satis- factory results.
 LOW INITIATION AND TIRE LIFE
 M. E. C. writes: My car rides so much more comfortably, when the tires are softer than they are sup posed to be kept, that l am tempted to let the pressure in them run low. Just why does soft pumped tire give out sooner than a hard pumped one, if this is really the fact?
 Answer: The softer a tire is kept, the more it flattens out at the point where it touches the road. At the place where a tire is flattened, the casing changes from a nearly circu- lar cross-section into a quite elliptical form and, as two points on opposite

SENATE FOLLOWS SUIT

During the early part of the after
noon, the Senate again suspended the
rules to take up this matter of the
federal amendment, and the House
resolution for ratification was adopt
ed concurrence by vote of 26 to 3.
Senator Tenney was absent. Those
voting in the negative were Senators
Kingsley, Hall and Root.
There was more or less discussion
over the matter of suspending the
rules. The House resolution, adopted
at the morning session, was trans
mitted to the Senate early this after
noon, and referred to the committee
on federal relations. Following a
short recess, this committee reported
favorably on the resolution.
Senator Villas moved that the cal
endar rules be suspended and the
resolution be taken up for immediate
action. He expressed the opinion that
practically all of the members of the
Senate came to the General Assem-
bly, pledged to vote for ratification of
the Sheppard amendment and he
thought there was no longer any rea-
son for delay in the matter. Sena-
tor Ballou seconded the motion of
Senator Villas.
Senators Root and Kingsley as
serted that they did not come to the
assembly pledged to vote for any
thing. They opposed the motion.
Senator Maurice said that he was
in favor of the resolution for ratifi-
cation but that he opposed the mo-
ton to suspend the rules.

Armenian Drive Successful.

The campaign for the American
Committee for Relief in The Near
East was finished in ESSEX County
Saturday January 25. The original
date had been set to close on January
19, but to accommodate towns which
were held back by the influenza the
time was extended one week.
The local committees have been
very successful in many Of the towns
but several were handicapped by the
health conditions which prevailed at
the time. The county's quota of
1929 was left we'll behind and the
fastest totals indicate about S119G or
43 percent oversubscribed.
The following towns have exceeded
their quotas, Brighton, Lexington,
Lunenburg, Canaan AMI Guildhall.
The local and county committees
wish to express their appreciation 10

assisted the campaign by contributing
space for the weeks of
January 9TH and 18th.

SOLDIERS LETTERS

The following letters were written
by Edmund Foss to his mother, Mrs.
Eugene Foss:
December 20, 1918
Ny Dear Mother:
have just returned from a four
teen days leave and when | came
back there was quite lot mail here
for me. We had very nice time on
leave although it rained all of the
time l was gone. We were way
down in the southern part of France
in the French Alps. The Y. M. there
had trips made up every day while
we were there to go up the mountoin,
but on account of the rain they were
cancelled. But there was a number
of places of interest in the city that
| went to including the Art Museum
and the Cathedral, and they were
very nice places.
1t is very interesting travelling on
these French trains. We had to
change trains four times and it took
us two days. There is no one on the
train to tell you the name of the sta
tion where you are, so when the train
stops you have to get off and find
out the name of the station and keep
doing so until you arrive at the place
where you are going. | sent you
some souvenir cards of the city where
l was and I hope you received them.
| wished that you and father could
have been with me when | was on
leave you certainly would have en-
joyed yourself. 1t has been rainy
here for about three weeks and it is
very muddy. This must be the rainy
season of France, as it has been rain
ing for quite a while.
l have not received the parcel that
you sent me but there is some mail
that has just come in and has not
been sorted out yet so it might be
here.
Hoping this finds you all we'll at
home, l remain your son,
Edmund
