S-Does the throttle only control
tho speed Of an engine.
The throttle does not wholly con-
troll engine speed. The engine load,
which increases when additional
weight is placed in the car or when
the car leaves a level road to climb

A cause of smoking when the car
IL driven at low speed is that on low
throttle opening, used frequently in
a city, the mixture, drawn into the
cylindeN does not completely fill tho
vacuum created in the explosion
chamber by suction of the piston on
a downward stroke. resulting in oil
being drawn past the piston rings.

cause OF knock In q motorr
Locating tho various engine knocks

fence. Each part not adjusted pro-
perly will give forth sound differ

loose crankshaft will give q thud or
a slap, and will cause the gears to

from the flywheel being loose which,
sound is produced regularly. A loose
piston In the cylinder and loose valve

3-What part Of tho igni-
ton system will cause a mosor ~

but win allow It to run smoothly on
low speed or light pllling7
Leaking spark plugs will cause a
motor to miss on heavy pulling or
high speed. and yet will not affect 1T
in light pulling or slow speed.
Cracked or porous condition of the
porcelain In the plug or leakage
around the porcelain cause the
trouble, allowing the high tension
current to ground without crossing
the spark gap.
SIS 1t harmful to the electric
system to run car on q dead bat

Do not run a car on a dead bat
terry. Altho the generator II u.s.

can be removed when the battery
is not is use, to prevent excessive In.
ternal current from damaging the

'UBLIC HEALTH LABORATORY
MEETS POPULAR DEMAND

The state public health laboratory,
established jointly by the state depart
mant OF health and the University Of
New Mexico on January first, has met
with totally unexpected demand for
its services throughout the state. Start
Ing off with 10 specimens for the first
month";, the total number OF examina-
tions for November reached 701, and
the number for the first half OF De
cember has already run up to $50, A
total OF 5000 examinations have been
made to date for the present calendar
year. II was not expected that the
services Of the new laboratory would
be utilized to such an extent for two
or three years.
A significant fact In connection with
the demand IN that. so far as can be
learned, the laboratory has drawn lit
tie, IL any, of the work formerly being
done by private laboratories located
within the state, indicating that the
use of laboratory examinations by the
physicians and health officers In the
diagnosis and control Of communicable
diseases has been increased 10 a con.
siderable extent.
One important function Of the lab
oratory has been the examination of
samples from public water supplies
over the state These samples have
been taken by the sanitary engineer Of
the department of health In connection
with sanitary surveys being made Of
water supplies. Laboratory investiga-
tions have also resulted in the finding
Of two typhoid fever carriers In milk
handling establishments in two cities,
within the year. and thus enabled the
health authorities to prevent further
spread Of infection from these sources,
which might have continued for years
without being discovered otherwise.

John Doe came home sober last
night and beat his wife numerically
for which he was arrested and fined
Mr.. Doe has been growing more and
more sober since prohibition became 4
law and as consequence, II Is alleg
ed. more inhumnne TO his family"

Richard Roe, not being under tht

lifelong friend over n game OF check

The killing followed an evening Of

came so incensed over the loss OF his
personal liberty that he shot hii
