Removing Pinion Nut

The Car owner who does his own
work is sometimes puzzled in regard
to removing the drive shaft pinion
nut. The operation begins by taking
out the cotter or locking wire. Next
a special wrench is used, and this
may be made from quarter inch
steel plate, the length and nut size
being made to fit the particular make
of car. To remove the nut the gear
is placed in reverse, the printing cups
are opened and the engine turned
over by hand. To put the nut on the
gear is put in low and the engine is
cranked.

Remarkable Record
In Production Made
By Studebaker Co

The production of Studebaker
cars during the first three months oi
1921, according to a current report
was 81 per cent of the production
schedule for the first three months
of 1920.
According to those familiar with
the production schedules Of the sew
eral leading manufacturers, this is
an amazing record in view of exist
ing conditions. Some Of the fac
tories are reported to have fallen far
below this mark. Ill
The manufacturing conditions are
improving with the advance OF she
summer season and it is rumored that
Studebaker expects to finish the
1921 season with a still more sur
prising record.

PAIR OF PISTOLS
 TAKE POKER PUT

A .32-calibre revolver and large 3S made up a pair of winning hands in a poker game just east of the city Saturday night, according to a report made to the police officials. More than S4O0 was taken out of the game in this manner, it was stated.
 According to the story told the of- ficers, the game was well under way when one of the players arose to get drink. As he unlocked a back door and stepped through, a masked man placed a gun against his stomach. After a second man. also masked and armed, relieved him of everything ne had on him, they showed him into the back yard and entered the room.
 The players were lined up again st the wall, with hands in the air. While one of the masked men kept the players covered with gun, the oth- CT collected their money and val uables. They then scooped up the pot on the table and departed.
 For five minutes, the report said. not a man made an effort to leave the room. The players were certain, the officers stated. that the robbers were old timers because of the bus ness-like manner in which they went about their work Not a man in the game according to the officers, was armed.

opinions to the merely curious
 No questions will be answered by the states legal adylsor unless they come in the due course of business.
 In the meantime the county unit bill without its enacting clause will stand and when June arrives it will become operative unless it is taken into court and tried out or unless someone who has the right to ask formally presents a request for an opinion on the matter from Arizona s attorney general.
 Holding that the persons who first put the question up to him. had with drawn the request, Mir. Galbraith held it was not up to him to furnish the public the information.
 So if anyone is interested. the tip is: Put it in writing and show good faith in the asking.
