proportion of the ministers and ex-

The annual report of the Congre-
gationaI churches in the United
States is just off the press. A sum-
mary made by the Rev. Charles E.
Burton. the secretary. shows a not
able tendency toward fewer
churches but better"
The denomination reports loss
Of 10 churches, but an increase Of
1922 members. The average mem
Iership per church. taking the coun-
~ over. increased from 147 per
e1nurch to over $50 members per
church.
This is accounted for by three rea-
sons:
1. The concentration Of population
in cities from the country. thus max
ing the continuance of rural churches
impossible.
2. The wide use of the automobile
allows many country jewellers to go
TO the town church.
g. The growing spirit Of church
union or federation which brings
about the union Of two or more small
churches Of various denominations
into one strong church
All this movement is for the good
and Congregationalists are most will
ing to enter into any plan which
will bring about better churches.
During the year just closed, thirty
three new churches were organized,
and lab were closed or merged into
churches Of other denominations.
Property values have increased by
So. 412, 461, bringing it up to s132.-
3Ss,237. Invested funds Of the
churches amount to s15,343, e4S, be
ing an increase of Ss24,55O in the

The annual budgets Of the

MOTOR COACH Use
GROWS RAPIDLY
New Haven Road Has Order.
ed Ten of Sixty.Passenger
Capacity Each.

While only forty railroads were
listed last year as operating motor
rail- coaches, a compilation made on
January /, 1924, shows a total of 157
or an apparent increase Of about 400
per cent. These figures indicate that
the railroads OF the country are not
only using the motor coach in an
experimental way, but many of them
have already found that 1t Is prac-
tical and economical.
Among the latter may be numbered
the New York. New Haven and Hart
ford railroad. 1t began test Of the
motor rail coach about two years
ago. Three motor rail coaches. each
accommodating thirty persons and
providing space for 1000 pounds of
baggage, were placed in the service.
AS a result OF the success OF this
venture, larger type of gasoline
propelled vehicle. providing accom-
modations for sixty passengers and
1000 pounds of baggage. was also
placed in service. This is propelled
by 120-horsepower, G-cylinder
motor.
This larger unit has so proved its
worth that the New Haven road has
rAcently ordered ten new units OF
the same type. These will be placed
livered and, under existing plans, VIII

Junction. Ridgefield and Branchville
and between Suffleld and Windsor
Locks.
A significant experiment with an
other high-powered motor coach was
begun recently by the Canadian Ma
tional railroad. This new rail motor
coach Is driven by n 225-horsepower
gasoline engine, seats fifty-f1ve pas
sengers and has a baggage compart-
nent fifteen feet two inches long.
The coach has a steel body, differing
from most rail motor coaches, which
generally have bodies built on q
standard motor bus style. The car
weighs between 10000 and $4,000
pounds.

No. 35-Tackling the Transmission.

Smith and I were spending a rainy
Saturday afternoon giving our cars
generous greasfng. Having run out
of cup grease, + decided to step over
to. the stockroom, but in passing
Smith 1 discovered that he was medi-
tating over the transmission. He had
removed the cap Of the filler pipe ana
had q grease gun load OF transmission
oil which he seemed anxious to pump
into the gears.
"I can't understand why l can't put
any oil in here" he said. From the
way the oil is running out Of here it
looks as though tho oil In the trans.
mission had been multiplying Itself"

Smith Gets u Lesson.

him that the transmission is not

for him. and so after removing the
emergency brake handle and placing
it to one side l unscrewed the cover
nuts and raised up the cover and the
gear shaft lever in one operation. In
a bath of grease the gears were re-
yealed below
Next I sat at the wheel, threw out
the clutch and cranked the engine
Since the car WAS stationary and the
clutch disengaged none of the gears
in the transmission were moving.
This gave Smith a chance to note
that the transmission is really COM
posed OF two gear-cargying shafts,
one directly on a line with the shaft
other directly beneath it. Allowing
the engine to run as slowly as pos
sible let In the clutch and told Smith
to watch the gear nearest the clutch.
The moment the clutch started fol-

began turning. And at the same time
the counter shaft below with all it's

that these counter gears turned be-
cause the clutch gear was in constant

is only necessary to mesh one Of
these two gears on the upper, or

gear on the lower shaft"
I pointed to the grooves on the

and then to the forks at the lower
end of the gear shift lever in order
