LEAVES OF SPRINGS
REQUIRE ATTENTION
Without fabrication They Soon
Become Rusty.
Dirt, Mud and Other Foreign Matte
Can Be Excluded by Use of Boots
or CoVers-Good Leather Sub
stitute Is Best.

Inc leaves of an automobile spring
are intended 10 Side upon one an
other when the car is in motion. Mann
car owners allow the springs to get
dirty, to 20 without fabrication and
10 become very rusty. The leaves be.
come so dirty that instead of sliding
on each other, they work almost as if
they were one solid piece of steel.
1hen, when the car strikes q hole or
bump in the road the springs are
compressed and, instead of each leaf
working as separate unit. the lower
leaves OF rusty spring are held fast
to the upper leaves The reaction from
the compression Of such a spring is
many times greater than the reaction
OF a clean, well-ubricated spring
where the leaves are allowed to slip on
one another as they should.
The first step towards a remedy is
to keep mud and dirt and all foreign
matter away from the springs. This
can be done effectively by covering
them with boots. Some supply stores
D
sizes of springs, but if you can't buy
I them already made, you should be
able to make them yourself, sewing
them together of leather or a good
grade of leather substitute, advises
Motor Life Magazine The advantage
Of the latter material is that it is
much cheaper than leather and, being
waterproof it will keep dirt and mois-
ture from the springs. 1t isn't very
big job to make suitable spring covers.
especially if YOU can get some of the
members of the family interested 10
the point that they will sew the covers
together Oh the sewing machine. Since
the fabrication on springs protected in
this way will remain in place very
long time and will not gather grit and
dirt the Slight expense and trouble
which the making and fitting of the
boots will entail will be we'll worth the
effort.

When the outlet and inlet of the

Lightfoot the Deer was spending the

he could have made that particular

So Peter hurried on, following that
path, and presently he came to a place
