London, Oct. 25.-Terrence Mac
Swiney, lord mayor of Cork, died al
Brixton prison after seventy-three
days of his hunger strike.
MacSwiney's hunger strike was be-
gun on Aug. u, when, with ten of his
associates, he was arrested by sol
diers In Cork while attending a SEES
sion of a SIM Fein court. After trial
by a courtmartial under the regula-
lions of the defense of the realm act,
he was found guilty Of sedition and
sentenced, to w years Imprisonment,
which he was serving in Brixton
prison in London.
MacSwlney, then an alderman of
Cork, was elected lord mayor of the
city at a special session of the Cork
corporation on March 80 of this year.
He was a w~ell-known Sim Fein lead
er, and prior to his election had been
deported and imprisoned several
times, one of the latest notable in
stances of his confinement having
been in 1916, in connection with the
Irish Easter revolt.
When arrested on Aug. u, Mac
Swiney managed to escape to the
street from the back Of the city hall,
which soldiers had surrounded, but
was captured outside. He was taken
to the military barracks, and came up
for trial on Aug. 16. The courtmar-
tial found him guilty of having control
Of the secret police cipher, of having in
his possession a document likely to
cause disaffection, namely, a copy Of
the resolution of the Cork corporation
pledging allegiance to the Dali Fire
ann, the Irish Republican parliament.
md of having made a seditious speech
On the occasion of his election.
Already weak at the trial because
Of his refusal to take food, MacSwin-
ey disputed the jurisdiction of the
court, saying: II am the lord mayor of
this city and its chief magistrate. /
declare this court illegal and those TAX
Ing part in it liable to arrest under the
laws of the Irish republic"
The day following his trial Lord
Mayor MacSwiney was deported to
England, aboard a destroyer, under a
heavy military escort, and was lodged
In Brixton jail. The government an.
nounced on Aug. 10 that he was sen.
fenced to two years Imprisonment.
Father Dominic, his private chap
lain, and his brother, John MacSwiney,
were with him at the time.

CAUSE OF POUNDING ENGINE
II Regular and Continuous Il Is likelv
to Be from Lost Motion In the
Bearings.

II a pound in the engine is regular
ana continuous it is likely to be from
lost motion In the bearings. If it is
irregular and occasional it is more
likely to be due to preignition caused
by incandescent carbon or from imper-
rect electrical connections. If the
pounding Is accompanied by occasion
al missing, especially If the missing
Is more frequent when the car is run
ming than when the engine is idling,
1t Is more apt to be due to imperfect
electrical connections.

ESCHEW CHEAP GREASE CUPS
More Than Likely to Become WORTH
less In Short Time When New
Ones Must be Bought

Cheap grease cups are more than
likely to become worthless in a short
time. 1t Is almost impossible for the
ordinary man to turn mi of these cups
down, and even If he is able to, the
operation may not send the grease
home where it is needed. The only
remedy for this condition is to install
really efficient grease cups or get a
fabrication system of the kind that
puts grease in the bearings under high
pressure.

SIMPLE PLAN TO
PREVENT KNOCKS
Annoyance Found in Old Model
Automobiles Caused by Too
High Compression.
GASKET REMEDIES TROUBLE
Composition Board Device Raises En-
CINE Cylinders and Eliminates An
noyance-Less Wear and Tear
Thrown on Bearinos.

Owners Of old-model automobiles
are annoyed by a knocking which oc-
ours under q light load. This usually
sounds like a carbon or advanced spark
knock, while as a matter of fact too
high compression is the cause.
Perhaps the most simple method
used to reduce high compression is by
removing the cylinders and placing a
thick gasket between the cylinders and
the crank case.
How Scheme Is Worked.
Remove the cylinders. Place them
on a bench, cleaning both fange and
engine base thoroughly. From a sheet
of fiat tin make a template, which must
be an exact reproduction of the base
of the cylinders, except that all the
openings, such as piston and bolt
holes, are about on~e-eighth inch larger
than those In the cylinders.
The template is used as a pattern
for marking out and forming the
embarrassing gasket. This method
permits the gasket to be made with
out the necessity of placing it under
the cylinder after each operation to
see that 1t is right. A copper asbestos
jacket cannot be used as a pattern.
because sufficient clearance is not af-
forded.
Procure a sheet of red composition
board ~one-quarter inch thick, then,
using the template as a pattern, mark
u the cylinder and bolt holes and the
outside form on the composition board.
using a ga~sket-cutting tool, as shown
In Fig. l. and a drill press, carefully
cut out piston and bolt holes, making
these one-eighth incl larger than the
true diameters. With a bandsaw,
or keyhole saw, cut the compost
ton board to conform to the outside
shape of the pattern.
Cylinders Are Raised.
Remove all the buried edges with a
file. Place the composition board on
the engine base and bolt the cylinder

A cracked water jacket is not as
serious trouble as n might imagine.
The cylinder should be removed and
the inside examined to make sure that
there is no leak into the cylinder. If
there is, that must be repaired also.
If not. the leak in the water jacket
can be welded and the casting made
serviceable again.

TO REPLACE VALVE SPRINGS
GOOD Plan to Compress Each In Wise
Until Short Enough to Go Easily
Into Place.

An easy way of replacing valve
springs consists of COMPRISING each
spring in n wise until 1t is short enough
to go easily into place and allowing
the holding key to be inserted, and,
while in this compressed condition,
tying 1t with wire so that it cannot
expand. After it is In place and the
key is put in the wire is clipped and
removed.

must be taken not to use too much

By this means the cylinders are
raised, resulting In a larger compress
sion space and, of course, less COM
preston is created. Further, the en-
CINE will pull much better and less
wear and tear will be thrown upon the
engine bearings.

valves after the job has been com

SCHOOL NOTES

(Continued from Page Six) One of the boys said he thought that the birds were piggish. Do you think so? I don't. This morning when 1 was washing my teeth I saw a bird It was all blue with a circle around its neck.
 He was on a twig, and from that twig he flew straight toward our porch.
 Another bird I have seen was a g smaller bird than that. He had little bit of white over his eye
 His tail was blue, and it looked as iSlhe had a little bit of green mixed in with the blue.

 We give the birds suet and they like it.
 Then they like us and come and sing for us to give them more. I like birds.
 One bird that comes around does not know if he likes suet or not. He just gobbles it down like some meat and then sings, and then takes bite of suet again.
 (Paul Bloedhorn) We put some suet in the tree. The birds eat suet. It is fat off meat We put it on a tree and the birds come and eat it.
 There is a bird named the crossbill. He is 8 cousin of the parrot. He lives down by Jacks house. He eats our suet and likes it. He is a good friend of ours. He will sing to us.
 (Karl Rosswog) Teacher got some suet at the butcher shop.
 We put it on tree and the birds eat it.
 We see many birds eating it. We saw a crossbill eating it. It had one baby. They like the suet. We like to have them eat it. We have seen twenty-six kinds of birds this spring. Robins are pretty birds. Jack said, 'I like birds" like birds, too. Jack sees many birds. Alfred sees many, many birds. like to write about birds. Birds like to eat suet. Birds like to eat bread crumbs. Birds like to eat apples and I like to eat apples.
