POOR DRIVERS
Waste power
Much of the Difficulty in Hill
Climbing in High Gear May
Be AVerted.
GIVE CAR SPEED At START
Rough Places to Be Avoided, Since Ev"
cry Bounce of the Wheels Means
Certain Loss Of Momentum
Don't Cut Curves.

Much of the difficulty in hill climb
ing in high gear is due to unnecessary
wasting of power by incompetent driv-
ing. Many driver kills" his engine
on a long grade simply because he
does not give the car enough speed
mt the bottom and thus encourages
overheating by denying the engine the
advantage of the additional draft OF
cool air which is available at higher
ear speeds. Frequently this type of
hill does not appear particularly steep,
and the consequence is the driver does
not feed enough gas, allowing the en-
CINE to run too slow, to struggle, ana
eventually overheat.
A source of lost power in hill climb
ing which is too often overlooked is
the bouncing of rear wheels over a
rough road. Every bounce of wheel
that is driving means loss of momen-
tum due to free momentary spinning.
The solution to this is to give atten-
tion to avoiding the holes in the road
| or feeding less gas for an instant while
riding over an unavoidable rough
| place.
A lot of drivers imagine they are
| gaining momentum by rushing over
the rough places but they would ac-
complish more by taking it easier In

second gear the machine will ofttimes
come almost to standstill.
The practice of cutting curves when
there is no danger in doing so has LED
to the habit of taking the short cut
around curves when hill climbing
This accounts for the lost power
of many motor because the grade OF
the inner side of the curve is always
greater than that of the outer SIDE

That, in addition to the Wis
ible and external parts of the
car which need attention-parts
which are marked with grease
cups, grease-gun connections
and the like-there are also
number of other places which
should be watched, particularly
as these are out Of sight and

Most cars are so constructed
that the housings which cover
this joint may be filled with
heavy oil and then left alone
for an indefinite period, depend
ing upon the average mileage of
the car. But this oil, like other
lubricants, thins out in time
and also becomes clogged with
dust and particles of metal
from the working parts. Care
should therefore be taken to
see that it is changed regularly,
for damage to the universal

Johnny played with his little

When mother wanted Johnny she
would telephone and the message
