 Due to several inches of snow and rainstorm. the road was not in any too good shape and the cars that considerably According to informa- tion. the road crews have been put on this road and from now on 1t should be in first class shape. Ac- cording to Foster Curry, who drove to San Francisco last week from Yosemite in his Cadillac touring car there is no possibility of any more rain or snow in the mountains. and the roads should improve steadily from now on- Curry returned to tho valley Tuesday and found the roads much better than when he came out few days previous. Travel prior tc this week has been entirely over tho Wawona road. but from now on tho Big Oak Flat will begin to get 1t. share. According to Curry. the lats rains and snows in the higher noun. tains will add to the attractivenes, of the valley and the falls will hav. great deal of water until late. 1T the summer
 Government records at the check ing stations show that the Cacillacl are making good start and in mum Der of cars entering the valley will probably break all previous records
 From the first year when the valle, was open to motor cars the Cadiila has been among the first four make in total cars entering the valley @ Fo several years the Cadillac was secon' and has never been exceeded by car other than the cheaper makes. o which many thousands have bee sold The number of Cadillacs enter ing the valley has always been thre to five times greater than all othe cars combined costing as much as tn Cadillac or over.

AIuminur Pistons and Carbon

Aluminium Pistons and Carbon Ownersof cars equipped with alumi- mum pistons should be very cautious about removing carbon deposits with oxygen, as the extreme heat general ed by this operation is more than likely to melt the aluminium of the piston
 Tapping Pistons
 Many substances are used in the operation of tapping pistons. Among them are fine emery dust, ground glass and rotten stone, or which the latter gives best results When the glass is used there Is always a pos sibility that some particles of 1t will become imbeded ip piston or cylinder stone, mixing little cylinder oil with it to form thin paste. Tn lap- ping the piston it should be given both reciprocaing and oscillating motion.
 | Speedometer Drive l Don't forget the speedometer drive. This hard working part needs a little | lubrication-a few drops of oil once | a week-and the average owner sell dom remembers it. Given this little attention, the drive will operate quietly and for long period without other care
 Wire Wheels
 Owners of cars fitted with wire wheels should give these parts a weekly inspection for loose spokes. l While the wire wheel is strong enough to resist astonishing shocks. nevertheless such a blow may loosen one or two of the spokes, and such | damage should De immediately re- paired. Where the enamel has cracked ' off paint should be applied to keep moisture from working its wsG in and inducing rust
 Proper Idling
 Owners of cars containing small bore six cylinder engines sometimes complain of the difficulty of obtain ing proper idling. The owner usually assumes that the carburetor is al fault. As matter of fact the trouble is usually caused by the spark plug gap being set too close This causes the motor to roll when idling, with all the symptoms of loading By in-

Looss spokes

Wooden wheels with loose spokes emit a squeaking sound which Is in- tensely annoying. The noise will be more distinct when the car is being driven around a corner Sometimes this iooseness may be obviated by re- placing one or more spokes. or it may be cured by forcing small wooden wedges between the spokes and the hub.

Serious Accident
Narrowly Averted

Last Friday afternoon little
Lester Corrington, met with q
most painful accident and narrow
Iy escaped with his life. The little
fellow was playing on the flats
near his home when he was att
acked by a milch COW, who made
a dive at him, knocking him down
and passing clear over him, then
wheeling and starting for the
PROSTATE form of the little fellow
with head lowered and ready to
hook and stamp out the little life.
Mr.. IL. f.. kaufman happened to
see the COW making the attack
and FASTENED with all speed to
rescue the little fellow, driving
away the maddened COW and pick
ing up the little fellow carried
him to his home. The little fell
ow is carrying a good many bruis-
es and cuts as result of his ex-
perience and there is not the sli-
ghtest doubt but what the COW
would have killed him but for the
timely arrival and Intervention of
Mr.. kaufman.
