Last night the fire was headed

COOLING SYSTEMS

The internal combustion engine
is q heat engine in which power
IS developed by converting the heat
energy generated through the com
bustlon of fuel into mechanical
energy Therefore it would seem
wasteful to have a cooling system
for diSslpating a portion of the heat
OF con bustion; however, in order
to control the temperature of the
combustion chamber to prevent pre-
ignition, warping of the valves, loss
OF power through lower volumetric
efficiency, excessive piston expan
sion and rapid breakdown of the
lubricating oil film. especially on
the cylinder walls and pistons, it is
necessary to diSsipate approxima-
telv 80 per cent TO 40 per cent of
the total heat of combustion.
Therefore il IS most important
that yaa cooling system be clean
ami that 1t be checked regularly,

The fact that the Bible
teaches government is an In
stitution ordained by God for
mans good, is one of the
proofs the Book is Gods reve-
lation to man. The obligation
which man is under to God
does not relieve him of his OBJ
legation to his fellowmen. Gov
eminent is necessary to en-
force and uphold justice
among men. Without govern
ment, the weak are oppressed,
life and property are unsafe,
while misery and degradation
become the lot of the under
privileged. Since man is i'm
perfect, it is needless to ex-
pect a government to be per-
feet. After the Deluge, God or
dained the Dispensation of HUI
man Government, during
which Dispensation man was
held accountable to God. When
asked the question, els it right
to give tribute to Caesar?"
Jesus answered, Render to
Caesar the things that are Cae-
sar's and to God the things that
are Gods"

dence. The early settlers
brought with them their reli-
gious characteristics, and, in
accordance herewith, estab-
lished Churches and Schools.
The founding of our Republic
was effected in agreement
with the words found in Levitt
Gus Is 10: "Proclaim Liberty
throughout all the land there
Of" These words were engrav-
ed on the Liberty Bell in In
