A few minutes later the mother,
on her way downstairs, heard the Wis

After the minister had left, the

Industrial Conditions Im- prove in Some Localities But Backward In Others.

Industrial conditions in certain sec tions of Europe are improving as a gratifying rate, while in other dis tricts the situation is not showing the proper trend, although indications point to slow process of advance ment.
 In France the work of reconstruc- ton and rehabilitation is proceeding slowly, but considering the. handicap of limited funds for carrying on this work the, situation is fairly satisfac- tory. The French people seem to.be quite busy in an agricultural and in- dustrial way, but there as well as in England there are many persons un- employed. In France, however, l could scent feeling of optimism.
 "Labor troubles and political tan gles are holding Italy back. and until the workers in factories, mills and mines meet the employers on common ground the outlook for resumption of trade activities is anything but rfsy.
 Scotland apparently is in fairly good condition. The people seem to lave everything their immediate de- nands require, mills are running ;n a reasonably satisfactory way aud the public in general is contented.
 Switzerland shows practically no effects of the war and it's resultant troubles that have beclouded ner neighbors. The Swiss people are en- ergetic and prosperous. There is a still in practically every line of in- dustry, the homes are we'll kept, the people well dressed, the cities having an air of prosperity, public improve ments continuing unabated-in fact, Switzerland seems to be the Switzer- land of yore.

SOME CAUSES AND CURES FOR
 MISSING. ENGINE
Expert Tells Why Motors Fail To Function Properly and How To Locate and Remedy Defects.
By Alexander Johnston Editor of MoTor


 While certain rules may be follow ed in dealing with an engine that nIs- fires, it not always is possible to get the best results without going through q process of elimination after one of the important engine systems has been decided upon as being the cause.
 There are three engine systems which control and affect firing. They are: Carburetion, ignition and valves. The first thing one must attempt to do is to determine which one of the three causing the trouble and then deal only with that system. Many drivers thoroughly familiar with their cars can tell whether the trouble is without even getting out of the seat and lifting the hood. Others, with dut thinking and lacking thorough knowledge of the engine, lift the hood and start in to adjust.
 In four and ax-cylinder engines the cause of misfiring is sometimes easier to determine than in an eight dr twelve, for the reason that the greater number of explosions confus' es the ear. Some Owners have be, come expert even with multi-cylindel engines, so as to be able to say wheth. CT it is only one cylinder, two of then or general skipping from one to an

SOUTH AMERICA IMPORTS Of ]. s.
 CARS INCREASING

The imports of motor vehicles and accessories into Argentina during 1922 and particularly during the month of July shows a decided increase over the imports for the same period of 1921, according to figures compiled in the automotive division of the Department of Commerce.
 While certain low priced American car is widely distributed a great num- Der of very small cars of German and French makes enjoy considerable pop ularity because of their low cost of operation. Other low and medium priced American cars are represented to smaller extent. Improved parts service would undoubtedly make for increased sales of American motor vehicles.
 There are considerable stocks on hand in Peru and sales are slow, ac- cording to report to the Department of Commerce from Acting Commercial Attaehe Dunn. Although the dealers usually place their orders late in the year, conditions are so abnormal in this line that at present no forecast can be made. An outstanding devel- opment consists in the continued in crease in busses of which there are now about fifty in service in Lima and vicinity.
