grease into the bearings until 1t
starts to squirt out on the inside OF
the wheel. With no brakes on the

get on the brake bands and you'll
have a good case of oil damage.

No Spark Plug Rule

How often should spark plugs be
cleaned? Here is a question which
even the spark plug manufacturers
do not undertake to answer because
no rule can be given. It depends,
first Of all, upon the type of engine.
Secondly. upon the age of the engine.
The make Of the engine may also
figure. The plugs are in different
positions in different engines, being
subjected to varying amounts Of oil
that works past the rings.

Worth Thinking About

George NJ. Graham, chairman of
the Traffic Planning and Safety
Committee of the National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce,
speaking to American car owners at
recent convention of the A. A. A..
made a few. pertinent statements
that are worth passing along. Here
are few of them: fF+
I'VE now have six times as many
motorists as we had total population
when we attained our national indie
pendence a century and a half ago.
I'VE used to think it necessary
that to become competent operator
of stationary engine a man should
undergo four years training.
Until we drive home to the
motorist that the pedestrian has his
rights, and to the pedestrian that
the motorist has his rights, we
shall not have made safety education
sufficiently specific to accomplish its
real result"
Referring to the new school Of
thought which recommends fast
driving in accordance with common
sense and road conditions Mr.. Ora
nam said:
There is certainly more fast driv-
ing than is WISE"

Did You Know

That half the failure in lubricating
rusty parts. such as springs is due
to overlooking the Importance of
using lubricant that will cut the
rust as it greases?
That glass can be as thick as
plate glass and look like it without
being plate glass? If there is any
crystal glass in the construction of
the car you are considering, and you
are led to believe it is plate glass,
simply look through it carefully at
various angles and under different
lighting conditions. You will fnd
that it waves and that objects seen
through it are considerably distorted
at times.
That the fluid of a hydraulic brake
system is not under pressure when
the brake pedal is released? No
pressure can be built up in the sys-
tenn by pumping the plunger in the
reserve tank. This action is merely
to fill the lines. Since pressure is
built up only as the brakes are
used, and then only for COMPARE
lively short periods the problem of
providing against leakage is not so
important as many car owners may
imagine.
