L|GHT-W WEIGHT CAR MAY
Be OF ROOMY DESIGN
Scientific Methods to Be Applied to
Producing Desired Weight and
Riding Comfort.

I'm speaking of the future light
weight passenger car" says Ernest
Selby. local Paige car distributor.
''the impression may be conveyed of
car that is small in size. This is
not necessarily true. \ lightweight
car may be as large and roomy and
comfortable as car weighing twice
or three times as much. The truth of
this statement is at once seen when
the means for attaining scientific
light weight are considered.
Principal Processes.
Light weight with ideal riding
comfort is brought about by four
principal processes:
q. The use of lighter materials,
such rs aluminium. alloy steels and
pressed steel.
a. Proper distribution Of the weight
fore and aft and above and below the
springs.
"3. Proper spring suspension.
81. Correct design of all chassis
parts in accordance with correct
lightweight principles
This fourth is a process which, in
sense, is forced on the designer-that
of designing small. light units lnclud-
ing power plant and drive assembly. be-
cause of the very fact that the funda-
mental principles of light weight de-
mands lightness all through the car
Carried out properly, this means
power plant of less horsepower and
torque, and good engineering at once
calls for driving units of reduced weight
to take the reduced power and torque
Progressive Design.
''In all of the foregoing it is clear that
the original conception calling for scien-
tific light weight means progressive de-
sign with each and every part no heav-
ier than need he. The idea light weight
car employs lighter materials, though
they be of the same size and perhaps of
the same general shape in some cases.
Scientific light weight construction may
call for the elimination of certain parts
of part combinations or total change
in design (not necessarily siZe). AS a
matter of fact. when a designer at
tempts to lay out Il scientific light car
weighing, let US say, 1000 pounds. he
may anticipate even a larger car than
an existing vehicle weighing $500
pounds"

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
FOR THE AUTOMOBILE lists

ton reaches the end of the compress
sion stroke.
6. 1t is often difficult to determine
whether the insulation in a spark
plug is cracked. If, however. plug
points are not burned to whitish
color the insulation is probably de-
fective.
I. In starting a car in cold weather
the oil pressure gauge will show
greater pressure than when the en-
gine has become warmed up. This is
due to the oil congealing in the oil
line, causing excessive pressure until
the heat thins the oil. Run the motor
slowly until the oil has had chance
to become thin.
S. A few drops of oil mixed with
graphite applied to the thread of
spark plug before screwing it into
the cylinder will make the plug much
easier to remove.
9. Watch your spring clips to see
| that they are tight at all times. If
they become loose the spring leaves
will not seat properly and may cause
frequent breakage.
TO- To avoid invalidating your auto
mobile insurance do not let a minor
drive your car and do not violate state
tions.

Answers to Last Weeks Questions.
l. In buying used car there are
many things to look for and it is
best to discover them before buying
than after. Look at the water cool
ing system for a leaky radiator and
clogged or broken water pump
Start the motor and if there is a
Kissing sound 1t will be caused by
cracked or broken piston rings or a
badly scored cylinder, a leaky prim-
ing cup or leak IN spark plug or
valve caps due to poor gaskets or
leaky manifold connection or broken
or cracked pistons. Knocks in the
motor may be caused by worn bear
ings or bushings. resulting in loose
connecting rods, worn wrist pins or
excessive carbon or a possible loose
Rywheel. Lack of power is caused
by poor compression due to one OF
several causes--scored cylinders or
worn piston rings, worn or pitted
valves, carbon on valve seats ana
poor ignition. Test the battery with
a hydrometer. See that the ammeter
registers charge when the car is
going five miles or more an hour.

plugs. Make sure that oil circula-
ton is shown by the gauge. Drive
the car and listen for transmission

Mufier Explosion at Starting.

A. 7. NJ. writes: Every time that
start my car it makes an awful noise
throuCi the exhaust and ] have been
tod that it is not timed right Please
tell me how to time the magnetic cor
rectly.
Answer We presume that the noise
to which you refer is caused by ex-
plosions of unburned gas in the muffier
which enter the muffier whenever a cyl
inder fails to fire. If the spark is timed
somewhat too late. this might aggravate
these muffier explosions. but if there
were anything seriously wrong with the
spark timing we should expect it to
affect the running of the engine. in serv-
ice and not merely at starting. With
the spark lever in its retarded position,
the platinum points of the magnetic, in
the breaker-box on the end Of the shaft,
should be just beginning to separate
when the piston of the cylinder to be
fired is just at the top of it's stroke
If these are muff1er explosions, which
you describe, their frequency can be re-
duced by keeping your spark-plugs
clean and your ignition system in good
order and by using no richer mixture
than necessary at starting.

Be sure that your coil-vibrators and
plug points are in correct adjustment
and that very thin oil only is used upon
the timer. If your dry-cells gave good
results, while they lasted. installing Il
storage battery for ignition might be
of advantage. The use of manifold
primer for supplying the cylinders with
ether mixture or high test gasoline at
starting. might be a help. Anything
that you can do to warm the engine
especially the carburetor. before crank
ing. will make starting easier. Boring
out your cylinders will have no effect
upon ease of starting and is only de-
sirable in case they have worn out of

new magnets?
Answer: If the winding is in good
condition, there is no occasion for new
magnetic and. in fact, We should not
advise replacing the magnets until re-
charging the present magnets had been
tried and found of no avail. We believe
that YOU can have these magnets re-
charged while in position, by any capa-

Managers James C. Luby of the Pioneers and Frank J. McConn of the Annex, are at work on arrange ments for the coming series between their clubs, to determine the city baseball championship. It has been agreed on that five games will be played if necessary, the winner of three games to cop the title. The teams have met once this season, the Annex winning a brilliantly played game at St. Mary's playgrounds on July I. Manager McConn's boys have made a fine record this season, de- feating all opponents.

TAILORS ACT TO CUT PRICES
St. Louis Association opens Four CO.

of Clothing.

St. Louis, Dec. 20-Substantial re-
duction in clothing prices will be eff
fected through the operation of the
four cooperative shops, just opened
here by the Master Tailors' associa-
ton of st. Louis, according to Samuel
l.. Fox, president. The reductions will
average $40 to $15 on suits ranging
in price from $45 to $75, Mr.. Fox as
serted. Under the cooperative plan,
contract tailors who formerly made up
clothing after the garments were cut
out are eliminated and skilled labor
is employed. Mr.. Fox emphasized that
the plan is not, as contended by labor
unions, a method of fighting organized
labor and establishing the open shop,
asserting the union wage scale is being
paid in every instance. Union Jour-
neymen tailOrs. however. are fighting
the system.
