The Old Mechanic Saws:

One of the most useless jobs in the
world is tryin' to adjust car parts that
are worn out. It's thankless work and
I'm forever surprised at the way car
owners seem to think it's legitimate
for me to take their money for work
that can't produce any results.
For the fifth time I've gone over
that fellows front wheels in an effort
to fix the alignment. It's all waste
effort because the wheels themselves
wobble and no alignment adjustment
can be constant under those conditions
I've tried to tell him so but, like plenty
of other car owners, he thinks I'm
tryin' TO sell him some more repair
work
He'll spend more money tryin' to
put those wheels in alignment than I'll
charge to put in new king pins and
buShin's when he is forced to order
this work eventually, and this isn't
countin' the wear on the tires Already
he's lost about 1000 miles of service
from them.
You can't keep wheels in line if they
wobble or don't run true. There's just
he right pitch and toe-in on his wheels
now when the cars standin' still But
out on the road, alignment varies con-
stantly.
Another one Of my customers keeps
me busy tryin' different adjustments of
the carburetor. but it's no use. The
workin' parts of the carburetor are
worn out and no adjustment will last
for more than few hours.

ed in New Pennsylvania
Program.

Automatic Stop.andgo signals at
street intersections in many Pennsyl-
vania boroughs will find their useful
ness at an end next January when.
under the terms Of the new motor
code, the States highway department
may create through-traffic highways,
which no vehicle may enter or cross
without first coming to full stop.
Throughtraffic highways are mere
ly the arterial thorOu2hfares carrying
heavy traffic. The law which becomes
effective January l provides that city
authorities or the State Highway De
partment may create such thorough.
fares. Signs at intersections will for
bid the entrance from secondary roads
of vehicles which do not come first
to full stop.
Although January l is almost one.
half year distant. the highway de.
partment has begun an intensive
study of the situation as it affects
State highways.
1T is the departments idea" says
Chief Engineer Samuel Eckles, that
a throush.traffic highway should be
so designated in municipalities and
in boroughs, as well as in the open
country. To create through.trafiic
highway in the open country. and neg
lect the designation in a borough. for
would be to defeat the pur-
pose of the act of assembly. That
purpose is simply to give the right of
way TO through traffic.
Take the town of Bedford, for ex-
ample. where a stop-and-go signal has
been placed at the intersection of the
Lincoln Highway and the State high.
way route connecting Cumberland and
Altoona.
THE Lincoln Highway is the ar
terial thoroughfare-the road of i'm.
portance. Signs placed facing traffic
on the cross street would cause all
to come to a full stop before
entering or crossing the Lincoln High.
way. Thus all danger of collision
would be avoided.
Early in the Fall the State High
way Department expects to have COM
pleted its Investigations. Literally
of signs will be needed
to advise secondary highway
travel of it's approach to an arterial
road"

PUZZLE is EXPLAINED.
Vacuum Tank Responds Only at
Proper Periods.

After attaching a gasoline filter the
notorist naturally is interested in see-
Ing whether the device works. To that
end he starts up the engine and waits
for the glass bowl of the filter to fill
with gasoline, but in this process he is
likely to be greatly mystified by not
keeping in mind the theory of the
vacuum tank
Possibly the idea is better explained
by relating the experience of one
driver who attached such a device
After starting the engine he was great.
~ mystified to find no gasoline COM
ing through the filter. The engine con.
tinued to run and he was dreading
the possibility of having the vacuum
tank go dry. Suddenly as he stood
watching there was a click in the
vacuum tank followed instantly by a
rush Of gasoline into the filter. 1t
was then that he remembered that the
Vacuum tank does not draw gasoline
from the rear tank all the time, but
only periodically when 1t is needed.

Tourists Appear
Always in Hurry
To Most "Natives''

To the native the tourist always
seems TO be exceeding the speed
limit, even if he may be running
at the commonly accepted pace. 1t
is a psychological condition. Tour.
lists are supposed to be in hurry.
There soes man from So and
So" says the native, noting the
strange license tag. Hes got
long way to go.
The assumption follows that the
tourist is in a big hurry.
When touring il is well to bear
this in mind as a protection against
biased testimony in event of a
collision or other accident. 1t pays
to drive considerably and. If pos
sible. give the impression that one
is not in a hurry.

Three Touring Tips

It does not pay to pass by n filing
station that handles ones favorite
brand of gasoline when the gas tank is
in need of replenishing. Many tourists
do this on the assumption that they
can get few miles farther with the
existing supply. When they reach
the next station, where a purchase is
absolutely essential, they often find 1t
does not have the fuel they desire.
DO not leave valuables in the car
with the idea that they will be safe
merely because the machine Is left In
garage. For obvious reasons, most
garages refuse to accept responsible
ity for articles left i'm the car. They
are really safe when checked at the
hotel.
Before leaving the car for the night,
it will save early morning time to
have the gasoline tank filled. the ra.
diator checked and the oil supply re.
plenished.

REAR Wheel TIRES
RUNCTURED MOST
Front Wheel frequently Leaves
Damaging Object
Balanced.

That the rear tires of automobiles
are punctured oftener than the for.
ward tires is well known. but the
reason for this fact often is hay to
the average motorist.
An explanation for this was found
however. when tire test car Of the
Miller Rubber Co. recently had q pecu-
liar accident This car was driven
over piece OF an automobile spring
the latter forcing itself through both
walls Of the rear tire. as we'll as
through the steel rim of a wire wheel
with which the car was equipped.
Tire experts explained that the
front wheel had run over the spring
and had left it balanced at the exact
anglo TO receive the full driving force
of the on-coming rear wheel. This.
they asserted. is what often happens
with nails and similar destructive OBJ
jects. and thus the rear wheels are
the ones that suffer

UTILITY OF SPRING COVER
More Effective When There Is Nc
Obstruction Underneath.

1t has been found that spring covers
are more effective when there is no
covering directly underneath the
spring. Curiously enough, the spring
keeps clean under these conditions
end old oil fed to the covers by means
of wicks has an opportunity to drip
out on the road after 1t has done
service.

Mr.. Houghten and his staff tested
the effect Of colOrs on roofs of build

while black absorbs the heat and
draws it within, white. more than any
other color, defects the heat.
In these tests they were aided by a
newly devised heat meter.
1t was found that red defects these
rays somewhat. but is not nearly so
effective as white
The bureau has erected within its
laboratory a burlaped drum to test

BRAKES MAIN FACTOR.
Better Equipment Needed as Fast.
er Cars Grow in Favor.

Faster cars, faster roads and traffic
congestion have been the factors
creating great need for better brakes
on automobiles. The manufacturer
has tried and still is trying to fill the
need which is growing daily. In this
connection, the motorist has a vital
responsibility. He must cooperate by
keeping his improved braking device
at high point Of efficiency
In the main. he is meeting this
responsibility. But there always is
the slovenly motorist who falls down
on the task. The one certain way
to have good brakes when the emer-
gency arises is to have them adjusted
and equalized as soon as looseness or
inequality is noted.
