Air Cleaner Care
BIZ E. B. WILSON

AN ENGINE TAKES in 5000 gallons
of air while it burns one gallon of fuel.
All air contains some dust or dirt.
Thus, it is very important that the air
cleaner be working properly.
Proper functioning of the air cleaner
depends on maintaining oil at a speci-
fled level in the cup and using an oil
with sufficient body to collect dust from
the incoming air and yet light enough
in body to be pulled up into the wire
mesh by the intake air.
Fresh oil only should be used Used
oil already contains dirt and it may be
more or less corrosive because of acid
formed in it. If it is diluted with I'M
burned fuel, the fuel will soon evaporate
and the remaining oil may be too
heavy.
The right weight of oil, as recon-
mended in the Operators Manual,
should be used. This is generally the
same as recommended for the crank
case at various seasons Oil that is too
heavy will tend to "choke" the motor
and cause high fuel consumption. Oil
that is too light will not clean the air
properly and besides may cause too
lean mixture Lean mixtures are re-
Sponsible for loss of power and burned
valves.
Inspect the air cleaner daily. When
there is "a inch of dirt in the bottom
of the cup, the oil should be discarded,
the cup cleaned and filled with new oil
of the proper weight, to the oil level
mark.
When detergent oil is used the dust
particles may be carried in the oil. Il
the oil has started to thicken, replace
it.

Controlling Chalking
OF Concrete Floors

CHALKY OR DUSTY concrete floors
are usually caused either by too much
water used in the concrete mix or too
much troweling and working of the
concrete when it is being placed.
After the concrete has hardened it
is, of course, too late to stop it from
chalking by using less mixing water
or troweling less. However, the chalk
lug can be reduced and in some cases
completely stopped by the application
of water glass to the surface of the
floor. Mix one part of water glass and
four parts of water and mop or paint
it on the floor Allow it to dry for about
a week and then apply a second coat.
Commercially made sealers are also
available from building material deal
ers. If these are used, the directions
on the package should be followed.

Drain Anti-Freeze
For Summer

ALL RADIATORS should have the
permanent type" anti-freeze drained
before hot weather. In the first place.
anti-freeze does not cool as well as
water and secondly there are many
ways that it can cause damage to
motor.
In all permanent anti-freezes, air
and exhaust gases seeping into the
cooling system oxidize the glycol, form
ing harmful acids. AS these acids are
formed they are neutralized by the
inhibitors In time, however, the rust
inhibitors are depleted and the solu-
ton becomes dangerously corrosive.
Adding another dose Of rust inhibitor
only helps temporarily. 1t does not
eliminate the damaging acid salts al
ready formed.
Thus, permanent type anti-freeze
should not be used year after year..

LISTEN here,
Mr.. EDITOR:
Editor State Press.

Editor State Press:
There comes a time In each
ones life that he or she should
make a choice. To do so re-
quires close thinking before max
ing a choice. The Negro has been
IN the U. S. more than two hun
dred years and has two things to
do, work and wait. He has done
both. He has done the chores a
round the homes and he has
done the difficult elsewhere. and
he has waited for the change to
come.
After the war that freed him
from a chattel. he had to work
Just as hard as before and bear
his own expenses on the cheapest
pay. He did this without a muir
muir being so glad to be free,
and he thanked God for the
same and noble men and women
that sanctioned his cause.
BY waiting and working hard
he has made gains economically
and intellectually regardless to
the difficulties he has 10 face and
climb over. His growth has been
marvellous TO contemplate until
1t is often spoken Of by many.
There have been many that wish
ed him well and have helped
him along his way
For years he could no, vote in
the primary elections in his To-
cation Of the south, but that bar
rier has been moved by the laws
Of the land though many we're
opposed to the same
He has many thanks to his
friends.
Our government being a de-
mocracy which says all men
were created free and equal have
the same right as free men an
such a government We are
thankful for the same that means
so much to all men regardless to
creed or color.
Our government has two great
parties the Democrat and the
Republican parties. Which should
the Negro ally himself with. is
the gres. question for the Ne
groes Of the land. Which party
has done the most for the Negro?
Which caused him TO have the
freedom that he is in other parts
He lives in all states nearly Of
the country. In which party can
he achieve most economically and
in education? These are questions
that receive the attention of eve
ryone.
Many have gone from the south
land, east, west and north and
made remarkable success There
he is not segregated and discrim-
mated because Of his color 10 the
extent that he is mother parts
Of the country He has better
opportunities to own nice homes
cars and get the best in eduea-
ton and soar TO high positions
in government
1t is true that each Of us tries TO
get the best bargains in life that
we can 1t is true that most Of
us try to get as much Of the
good things Of life as we can
get Which party has done the
most for the Negro' Which party
has suffered for his freedom by
fighting and shedding their blood7
Which party is saying that he is
an American regardless to his
color? Which party seeks TO keep
him in the rear while il eniovs
the best in life These are the
questions We should ponder be-
fore we choose and vote.
