Contrary to former belief Mr.. F'a-
vary states. 1t has been shown that
the up-to-date sIX-cVlinder engine has
greater thermal efficiency than the

and perhaps. most important. it is
possible to use higher compression
pressure without detonation.
Sufficient importance has not been
placed on this possibility. he thinks.
Heat is conducted away from the top
centers of small pistOns to the cylin-
der walls more readily than from larg'
er pistons. hence the centers are cool.
er: moreover. in the smaller combus-
ton chambers the distance from the
spark plugs 70 the farthest layers OF

and therefore the likelihood of part Of

Pour Oil Into Covers.
1--WE seen grease come out between
leaves in such form that it resem-
bled tinfoil. When replacement
springs are used it is customary for
repairmen to squirt some penetrating
oil over the leaves. This softens the
graphite which is packed between the
leaves. Thus, if you are going to
use grease as the spring leaves lubri-
cant and do not have an opportunity
to take off the covers for periodic
inspection, it is a good plan to pour
some Of this penetrating oil into the
covers and let it do it's missionary
work.
Generally speaking. however, oil
covers are considered best; but here,
again, you must observe certain pre-.
cautions. Because it is a simple mat
ter to refill oil covers most owners
overoil their springs, and too much
lubricant will destroy the frictional
qualities of the springs so necessary
to good riding. A good rule to follow
is to cover the springs OF the ear with
an oil cover and refill it only when
the springs start to squeak"

and protect them he had better. not

and miss most of the advantages
which covers can give.

TRAFFIC POLICE
GIVEN NEW DUTY
Men in Charge of Maryland
Highways Must Know
How to Drive.

All Baltimore traffic policemen un.
able to drive automobiles will be taught

Hamilton r. Atkinson, head Of the
traffic division
1t is Capt Atl>inSon's theory that

The police officers Will be given suf1f-
Gent instruction in starting ana other

help or advise a motorist who has
trouble while in traffic. Often traffic
has been blocked until one motorist
volunteered to help another. In some
difficulties. Capt Atkinson says, the
traffic policeman himself could relieve
the situation.
All Expected TO Learn.
All members Of the police force will
be expected to learn more about the
various types of cars to enable them

realize why this or that was done by
the driver and he would not be so
quick to lose his temper.
Example Is Cited.
Take for example policeman d.
recting traffic at an intersection atop
hill. The motOrist who has just
reached the ttop invariably gets there
Just in time to see the policeman
turn the semaphore to stop. Now.
the patrolman who has driven an auto
mobile himself would realize it is hard
er to start a machine on an incline
than on the level and, if the occasion
allowed, he would refrain from turn
ing his semaphore until the driver on
the hill had passed.
Inexperienced operators often stall
their motors, and traffic is tied up un.
til the vehicle can be started under
Its own power or pushed to the side.
A policeman experienced in driving
would be in a position to give direc-
tions as to how to start the car and
get 1t on its way before traffic was

1t is strange that motorists who
would not think of trying to wash dirt
off their hands by using cold water
insist upon trying to wash grease and
dirt off the chassis of the car with
cold water. Hot water should be used
for this purpose. although care should
be taken to see that only cold water
is used on the hood. body and tenders.
