KETCHIKAN PIONEERS WANT
 GRAND SESSION AT CAPITAL

KETCHIKAN, March 5-The local igloo of Pioneers, at a meeting held on Thursday night, adopted resolu- tions approving the stand taken by the Nome igloo in demanding that the proceedings of the grand igloo session at Anchorage last year be declared null and void, the conten- ton being that the session was not held in accordance with the laws of the organization.
 The ketchikan resolution repudi- ates all the actions of the Anchor age meeting and condemns the pro- ceedings in vigorous terms.
 Ketchikan igloo will send delegates to the Seward session of the grand igloo this month, but they will be instructed to urge an adjournment of the session to Juneau, where all the igloos of the territory can be represented by members who are at tending the session of the territor- ial legislature.

Motor Car Replaces
Locomotive and Coach

w. 81. Wright, superintendent Of
the Savannah division of the Central
railroad of Georgia, inspects the
property on his division with more
comfort, thoroughness and speed, and
at lower cost than most divisional
superintendent in America. In for
mer days he covered his division with
a special train consisting of locomo-
tive and coach, which required the
services Of an egineer, fireman and
conductor.
To attain greater flexibility in his
regular inspections he had q Dodge
Brothers motor car equipped with
standard gauge steel Hanged wheels.
This unique car is driven by Mr..
Wright himself and in addition to
the occupants it carries the varied
accessories necessary to the superin-
tendent in his work. At times the car
is dispatched down the road only
few minutes ahead of important pas
sengef trains, so confident are the
officials of the motors power and re-
It proved SO successful in
several years of operation that other
divisions have been similarly equipped.
At present there are ten or more of
the cars in operation on railroads in
and around Atlanta.

Safety Lessons
in Autoing
COOLING SYSTEM.

The intense heat of the explosions
inside the cylinders of an automobile
engine causes the engine to become
heated. The engine operates most eff
ficiently when it is heated to about 10
degrees +. If it gets too hot it will
burn the oil and prevent proper lubri-
cation Of the engine. To prevent the
engine from getting too hot the cool,
ing system has been provided
The engine may be cooled either by
air or water. There are but few
makes of automobile engines which are
air cooled. These engines have COM
paratively small cylinders and operate
at high speed. They have deep flanges
on the outside of the engine castings
to present q greater area with which
the air can come in contact.
The majority of automobile engines
are water cooled. The cooling sys-
tenn consists of water jackets, ra
diator and connections. The engine is
so cast that pockets Or jackets SUR
round the cylinders. Water is circu
lated through these pockets. This wa
ter absorbs some of the heat from the
engine: it rises when heated and flows
in at the top of the radiator. The air
rushing through the radiator carries
OlI solHG Ol Lie ACdI. Il HS liStIS IN
the heated water forces down the cool
er water in the radiator which then en-
tiers the engine water jackets: thus a
steady circulation is maintained in the
cooling system. This circulation in
some cars is made more rapid by in
stalling water pump. The fan draws
more air through the radiator than
would otherwise pass through it, and
cooling therefore is more rapid than if
there were no fan.
Important points concerning the
cooling system are:

quentiy than once each day look into
radiator and add water if necessary.
If possible. use rain water or other
soft water. Hard water forms a scale
on the inside walls Of the cooling sys-
TEN which retards proper cooling.

wouldn't accept a car with badly
denied hub caps, or even slight radi-
ator leak or one with many loose
parts 1t is up to the dealer to put
the car in first class shape for you
and / know that every good automobile
merchant attempts to do this. Some
Of them, however. think they are saving
money when they avoid few hours
labor on a car.
Look the engine over carefully
while it is idling. See that there are
no bad leaks about the cylinder head,
valves, etc. The design of the engine
will dictate some things to watch. For
instance. the fan belt may be loose,
there may be cracked spark plug
porcelain. the ignition unit may wobble
a little too much, the engine may be
noisy. etc. In the latter case you will
be told that that is because the car is
new, but many engines stay noisy be-
cause the timing gears are not good
set. Whenever you are in doubt al
ways tell the dealer that you believe
him, but if things don't turn out that
way after the 3O-day guarantee is up,
will he stand good? If he will, then
tell him to put it in writing. Bear in
mind, it doesn't matter what the price
of the car is. you are entitled to get
a perfect vehicle.
An Example.
As an example of what you may
run into, let me tell Of a. recent case.
the owner was a little bit in doubt
about gear noises. He was a first.
time owner, but he heard growing
noises from the rear and told the
dealer so. The owner was told the
gears would run themselves in in
about 800 miles and would then be
perfectly quiet. Thirty days elapsed
and the gears were noisier than ever.
but what chance had the owner to
make the dealer adjust the gears or
install new ring gear and pinln.
If car needs work have it all done
before the 3O-day guarantee expires.
\ great deal Of the life of the car
may be taken out in the first few
hundred miles of running. Never at
tempt to speed in a new car. Drive it
slowly and try to keep its speed under
p miles per hour Never race the
engine. Shift gears often rather than
make the engine labor in high gear.
This sort of driving Will wear the
parts in easily and produce perfect
rubbing surfaces. After running about
800 miles drain the oil from the engine
md better still have the oil pan re-
moved and cleaned as well.
Watch moving parts every day. For
Instance, wheel bearing may be set

Guesswork IN Fixing
Batteries Expensive

"Guesswork puts great many stor-
age batteries out Of business" says l..
A. Eneboe, manager of the local Viii
lard service station. 1.-THE car owner
knows that his battery is not working
just right and feels that he ought to
do something. So he goes ahead and
often does the wrong thing.
The only safe course for car own
er to follow is to go to man who
knows batteries and ask him to remedy
the trouble It may not cost him any
thing at all to do SO but even If it
does, it is cheaper in the long run.
If everybody would follow this method
instead of tinkering with the battery
at home, the average life of batteries
in service would be much longer"

BREAKING IN A NEW CAR.

Some Of us have the idea that be-
cause an automobile is new it does not
need any attention. This is absolute
~ wrong. In the first place when a
car is delivered to an owner he is
wise not to assume that it is in per-
feet shape. When I say it probably
isn't in perfect shape. mean that a
dozen and one little things may need
attention and the sooner these are dis
covered, the better it is for the car
and the owner.
When a car is delivered the first
thing to do is to check up on all equip
ment Ind to look the car over generally
to see that you are getting what you
paid for. Then YOU have detail to go
over carefully Look at the battery
to see if it is filled with water, that
it is frightened in place, see that the
ammeter works. that the oil guage
registers. that there are no leaks un-
der the engine, etc. These may seem
like minor things to you. but a great
deal depends upon the proper working
Of these detail parts. For instance,
it is very easy to overlook filling a
grease cup or two. OF course. it is
up to the dealer to check up on the
factory. but suppose he is Of the sort
who wants to save as much as posi-
BILE on conditioning new cars, he Ger
tainly will forget what the factory
overlooked. 1t is up to the owner.
upon receipt of his car, to see that
all luby Heating points are well sup
piled, that no grease cups are missing
or are imperative due to paint on the
threads.
Look Car Over in Detail.
The big production cars are in many
cases made in assembly plants not
far from the point of delivery. This
drive may be only miles and again
it may be 50 miles. A great deal of
harm can be done to car il that
short drive. You may happen to get
a car that was driven in by reckless
individual who burned few curb
stones, or kissed hub caps with few
stray cars on the road You must
look your car over in detail and re-
fuse delivery if it seems to you that
certain parts need replacement. I
