Ruying q a is somewhat like going
to college. the automobile freshman is
about to acquire a lot of information
he or she never knew before and to
enjoy a good many interesting expe-
riences more or less novel. This au-
tomobile world is co-educational, for
no small number of women drivers are
seen plotting motors along high
ways. And their proportion, as COM
pared with men is constantly increas-
ing.
The newcomer into the realm of au-
tomotive engineering, that is the per-
son who has just purchased a car and
does not know how to drive, has got a
real undertaking ON his hands in learn
ing well the fine art of automobile ma
niDulation. The new owner who has
| driven other cars has a less difficult
problem but even at that 1t is one to
take seriously. From the pedestrians
point of view, he would doubtless con
clude that a regular educational course
in driving a car would not come IN
Iamiss for the we'll seasoned driver
Judging from what he sees of reckless
driving and the way he has frequently
to dodge machines TO ave his life.
Few. If any, car owners ever reach the
point where they know it all in driving.
In starting out to learn how to drive
ian automobile the neophyte should,
first of all, know that the car to be
operated is in good drivable condition.
There should be a good supply of gaso-
line, oil and water in the proper re-
ceptacles for such necessities. The
tires should be properly inflated, the
batteries charged and the engine work
able.
First Acts in Driving
The prospective driver then seats
himself behind the wheel. 1t is a good
idea to have IN experienced driver at
ones side until he gets on to the fund
amental principles of driving. 1t is
necessary. of course. to start the en-
CINE. This is done by stepping IN the
self starter pedal, or if there is no
self-starter, by eranking.
Before starting the engine, however,
there are a few preliminary and i'm
portant details that need attention.
For instance, the driver should place
the gear shifting lever in the neutral
position, put the emergency brake Oh,
retard the spark fully, or, if we'll
acquainted with the motor, to point
where the spark surely will occur on
or after the crank has passed top cen
ter. Open the throttle about one-third.
After getting acquainted with the
machine one will find q position for
the throttle where the motor always
will start best. Put on the switch. If
the motor habitually starts hard prime
the carburetor. After the engine
starts close the throttle and advance
the spark about one-half. If the
engine has been started On the bat
terry and magnetic is used, switch i'm
mediately from the battery to the mag

noto. Do not allow the motor to race
When running idle it should turn over
at its slowest speed.
The driver should then place the
left foot on the clutch pedal and press
hard to release the clutch. Keep it dis
engaged while with the right hand the
emergency brake is released and the
gear lever is shifted from neutral to
the first speed notch. Then with the
right foot press the accelerator pedal
gently until the motor speed is in
creased a little and at the same time
with the left foot allow the clutch

Dear Barney Oldfield:-I understand
that the Ford class now has the Gray
and the Star cars in it. What is the
touring price Of each and how do they
compare in design with the Ford!
S. NJ. E.
The Star and Gray have been out
for some time. The former sells for
SAB completely equipped and the Gray
for $500. Both are standard design
throughout, having a regular gear SHIFT
and using a light pressure disc clutch.
The cars are worthy of anyone's con-
sideration. Both use a Continental
engine and Thinker axles.
Dear Barney Oldfield:-Can got tell
ME anything about the Kelsey friction
drive? Is there any other friction
drive car made and where? c. T. O.
Kelsey has turned to a gear drive,
but | suppose they will sell a friction
drive to one who wants it. / cannot
see why you want a friction drive If
you have q gear-drive car.
Dear Barney Oldfield:-My engine
misfires badly and | was told that one
of the cylinders is scored. as the spark
plugs always are wet with oil. What
spark plug can / use that will overcome
this trouble or what would you sug-
gest? NJ d. +.
There is but one thing TO dc and
that is to nave the score marks filled
in or have all the cylinders refirished
by grinding or boring. 1t is useless to
change plugs because even the best
plugs will foul under such conditions.

leased when the clutch pedal is pushed
down, and that it is engaged when the
pedal is allowed to come back. Run on
the high speed gear as much as pos
sible, and when it is necessary to drive
more slowly release the clutch and
apply the brake gently until the car is
brought to the desired speed.
If this speed is too slow for the use
of the high speed gear release the
brake and with the clutch still olsen
gagged change from the high to the
next lower notch and let in the clutch.
If the car has lost much momentum it
may be necessary to change to the
lowest gear before letting in the clutch,
