Vegetables should have place

Friction Common Cause
of Engine Overheating

Every machine, whether a mechani-
cal motor or the human body. REQUIRES
thorough oiling in order to secure ef-
ficient operation. Where there Is i'm
proper oiling, there is friction, and
where there is friction, heat gener-
ates. Heat, in the last analysis, ia
responsible for burnt-out bearings in
motors and death by scarlet fever In
human beings.
1t is generally believed that In the
oil stump there lies pool of oil, into
which the bearings dip and which the
motor pump forces into the various
running parts of the motor. This is
only half the truth When a motor
has been running long enough to be
warm, 1t heats the oil and creates
mist, or fog, of tiny oil particles.
which permeates thoroughly all the
lower parts Of the motor. The danger
In letting your oil supply run low is
in thinning out or entirely abolishing
this oily mist This is danger you
cannot see. You will be made aware
Of it by watching the heat Indicator

should the mercury In this show a
swift rise, look at your oil. Ask your

TRAFFIC CONTROL
VERY IMPORTANT
Matter of Right-of-Way on
Streets Still Continues
Paramount Issue.

(By C.. B. AUOL, President National
Safety Council.)
The first automobile brought with Il
a complex problem which has in
creased in completely until at the
present time it affects, directly or in
directly, every inhabitant of this coun
try. There are now 17,7OO,OO0 auto
mobiles registered In the United
States, and it is estimated that by
1850 there will be 100000. There is
one automobile for every six people
In this country. Cities were almost
wholly unprepared to meet this new
age OF transportation. and the question
of traffic control has risen suddenly in
Importance. Almost anyone who trav-
els the streets of our large cities either
afoot or In the cushioned seats Of an
automobile realizes the vast necessity
for adequate means Of controlling
traffic.
Right-of-Way Question.
One Of the bubbles of motorists and
pedestrians is: Who has the right-of-
way? A poet with an ample sense OF
humor has written an ode to the man
who died maintaining hfs right-of-way.
Laws have been passed in an attempt
to define the matter of the right-of-
way on the streets, but still 1t contin-
ues as paramount issue in the traffic
control problem.
Il is demonstrated daily In the larg-
err cities that proper control and su-
pervisqon of traffic has resulted in
fewer accidents. Elimination Of left
hand turns, segregation of street traffic
synchronized traffic lights and numer-
Gus other devices have been invented
to lessen the hazards to life and limb.
Busy streets where traffic is thus con.
trolled have much fewer accidents, In
proportion to the number of vehicles
and pedestrians, than uncontrolled
streets have.
Traffic Control Problem.
"A feature of the traffic-control prob
lem is the increasing Importance of
mechanically operated control. The
traffic officer is becoming huge bur-
den or expense to the larger cities. In
the congested districts there are some
times as many as four or more officers
on each of two or three shifts super
vising the traffic at one intersection.
The salaries of these men, capitalized
at 6 per cent, sometimes represent a
permanent investment Of half a million
dollars for one intersection.
AS an example of what the synchron-
lied traffic signal can do for traffic,
the city of Chicago may be cited.
Michigan avenue, which is an unusually
wide street, bears the heaviest through
traffic in that city. In the length of
street covered by the traffic lights, IA
talities have been reduced rs per cent
since the lights were Installed two
years ago. The use Of these signals
has been found to speed up traffic dur
Ing the rush hours, although 1t slows II
during the non-rush periods.

Give Steering Gear and
Brakes Right Attention

There are two elements of every mo-
tor car upon the perfect operation of
which vitality depends the lives and
limbs of the passengers. These are the
steering gear and the brakes.
The engine may "go dead" the gears
strip, or important parts Of the mech
anism may break, with not more seri-
Gus result than delay, Inconvenience
and a repair bill; but when the steer
ing gear fails, an accident of more
or less serious character usually takes
place, explains an expert. 1t is thus
obviously advisable, as a reasonable
precaution, frequently to inspect all
parts of the steering gear with the ut
most thoroughness In order to fore
stall arrangements.
All steering gears are very much
alike, and consist of these parts: This
steering column and steering device,
usually located at its lower end under
the hood, with its crank extending
down under the car; the drag-link,
which connects the steering crank with
the knuckle of one or the other Of the
front wheels; the parallel rod, which
connects the knuckles of the two front
wheels and the pivoted knuckles of the
two wheels with their spindles and
pins.
In general way the inspection Of
a steering gear consists in assuring
oneself that the fastening devices con-
Meeting these parts are all perfectly
secure and that there is no undue
looseness or lost motion in any of the
joints, or elsewhere in the system.

Washington, May 8, 1925.
Dear Mrs. Sherman:
am much interested to hear of your
proposed national survey of home equip
ment. The home is the family workshop.
Its equipment and organization are an In
dex of its efficiency. As most import
ant conservation problem 10 the conserva-
ton of human energies, a general study of
the equipment of the home for reduction
of needless effort should have much useful
ness. 1t should also lead to an increase in
the amount of time which the women of
the country may devote to the development
of the finest type of family life and to civic
Improvement. Your project, therefore, is
highly commendable and should bring re-
suits Of far-reaching Importance.
Yours faithfully,

My Dear Mrs. Sherman,
What you have said about the plans of
the General Federation for a nationwide
survey Of home-making methods and facili-
ties, has impressed me as having possibili-
ties of large usefulness. | am sure that
some of the Government agencies will be
able to give some substantial assistance,
and assume that you will afford them the
opportunity. From what you have said
gather that the program is of practical
character, and hope may be productive of
much good to the women who have to con-
duct the affairs of American homes.
Very truly yours,
CALVIN COOLIDGE.
