back into dullness today. In doin-
so. however. Il merely kept pace
with most of the other financial
markets. Partly as a result Of the
declines Of the past week and

cautious. The early gains in stock
prices however. which were mostly

Insurance Inquiries

q. Does an automobile insurance
policy expire at moon" Of standard
time where the car happens to be?
A. No. The policy expires at
moon" of standard time where the
policy was written and the contract
made. In travelling extensively at the
time a policy is about to expire the
motorist had better keep in mind the
standard time of his own home town.
q. When is an insurance COM
pany justified in indemnifying the in
sured to the extent of the cost of a
rev car of like kind and quality in
stead of with the cash equivalent of
the value of the old car at the time
of loss?
A. When car prices have been re-
duccd pending the adjustment, and
when the insured would be making a
profit through being Unidentified for
more than what it would cost him
to replace the destroyed or stolen
property.
q. If the chauffeur of a household
that uses two cars runs into and
damages the other car driven by the
owner is the insurance company Ii
able for the amount of property dam
age inflicted by car number one?
A. No. Under the terms of the IL
ability policy the insured is not in
IDENTIFIED for damage on account Of
injury to or destruction of any prop
erty of his own or any in charge Of
his employees.

Judging from the difficulty most

looks as though most of them would
fare rather badly trying to follow the

Wonder II the chaps who smoke
cigars when driving and shake off the
ashes with a flip of the finger on the
extended left hand realizes how many
false stop" alarms they give to driv-
ers who follow in the rear?

Tho Ideal in Wheels

Motorists are now experimenting
with a variety of wheel types, and
the results will be known in the very
near future. One thing, however, is
evident without putting the wheels
to test: motorists have not awak-
encd to the great advantages offered
by the combination demountable
wheel and demountahle rim.
A. wheel with both these features
obviates the danger of dropping the
car on the axle when the driver is
simply changing a tire. AS with the
conventional wood wheel the rim
comes off and is replaced by the rim
and tire carried as a spare. If the
car happens to have stopped in a
place where it is likely to slip off the
jack no great harm is done if the
car drops on the rim. 1t can be
lacked up again in various ways.
If the spare tire blows out and 1t

Adjusting Headlamps

/
The third problem is that of ad.
| justing the headlamps after the bull
has been focused.
The procedure to follow when
| using a device marked "Horizontal''
or "No-Tilt" is as follows: Draw a
horizontal line on the focusing
screen the same distance from the
surface on which the car stands as
is the centre of the headlamps. Make
two short vertical lines each in a
direct line with the axis or centre
of each headlamp intersecting the
horizontal line. This will make the
points of intersection the same dis
lance apart and the same distance
from the floor as the centres of the
headamps. Next bend the head
lamps upward, downward. in or out
until the centers of the circles from
each light falls exactly on these
points of intersection.
If the device used is marked tilt
3, 6. IL inches, etc. in % feet" en-
tend the vertical line of intersection
exactly that distance below the her-
izontal line and bend the headlamps
until the lower ends of these verti-
cal lines are exactly in the centers
of light.
When the headlamps are more
than ~ inches from the ground
they should be given an additional
tilt of one inch for every four inches
higher than AZ inches.
After the electric bulbs have been
focused and the headlamps have
been adjusted apply the lenses or
other device. Be sure the device is
right side up. The result should
show a spread of clear white light
with no projected beam showing
above the horizontal line. If any
light does come above this line bend
the headlamps down little. and if
the top of this light does not come
up to the horizontal line bend the
lamps up.
Bulbs
While it is possible in some lenses
to use 81 candle power bulbs with |
out causing glare. it is usually not
practical and often their greater cur
rent consumption really results in
less light than would result if a y !
candle power bulb were used. The
heat generated by the 50 candle
power bulb is greater than a q can
lie power bulb and this heat has
been known to soften the rubber
part Of the lamp sockets and spoil
