no adjustments, excepting only the
carburetor air valve. Now I find this

with clutch in and shuting off the
throttle so that the car is driving the
motor the noise immedateiy ceases.
Advancing the throttle again. the
noise starts again. Where does this‘
humming noise originate, what caus~
a it and what is the remedy? Thank-
ing you for your courtesy in answer-
ing me. ‘I am. R. W.
The noise undoubtedly is caused by
the clutch thrust bearing. This bear-
ing is just back of the clutch, and
should be replaced with a new anal

however, to remedy this condition,
and would greatly appreciate an ex-
pression of your opinion on this mat-
ter.——E. G.
A defective bearing supporting the
pinion shaft would cause this trouble.
Likewise. if you mesh too closely the
two bevel gears. a disagreeable noise
will result. After two gears of this
type have ben run a considerable
length of time it is not advisable to
attempt to adjust these too closely.
They wear themselves in such a man-
,ner that if meshed too closely to-
,gether they will ride on high spots
caused by the previous wear. More
; than likely you will find a badly worn
hearing which is causing the trouble.
. Very often it is necessary to remove
:a bearing and wash it in gasoline in
l order to detect its damaged condition.
A casual inspection of a bearing when
covered with grease will not always
Jreveal its true condition.

The advantage in heating the car-
buretor lies in the application of heat
.to the parts that require it. When
the gssolene is vaporized at or around
the spray nozzle the temperature at
that point is reduced several degrees.
In vaporizing the liquid a certain &
mount of heat is absorbed from the
air, and this lowering of the tempera-
ture will _chill the metal of the car-
buretor and inlet pipe. As more gaso-

HELPFUL HINTS.
To clean screen of separator on gas

air pressure from a pump or tank.
Place nozzle hose against screen. The
air will force all particles of fuzs and
sediment out of fine wire mesh.
'When the driving wheels get into
mud too deep and so slippery that
traction cannot be maintained. it is a
good plan to throw dust, sand, or

there are felt washers. even though
they may not be plainly apparent. Be-
cause they sre put there to keep the
lubricant in and the dirt out, care
should be taken to see that they are
replaced if it becomes necessary to
remove a wheel for any cause.
Starting of motor will be facilitated

Widely Known for His Work on
Sociology
CHARLESTON. S. C. Mar. 29.-—-Dr.
Charles It Henderson, Professor of
Sociology in the University of Chica-
go. died here early today, after a short
illness. He was born at Covington,
lnd., Dec. 17. 1848. and was graduat-
ed from the University ofChlcago in
1870 and from the Baptist Union
Theological Seminary in 1813.
Dr. Henderson was widely known
for his work in sociology.
Dr. ilcndcrson came to Charleston
two weeks ago for a rest. Soon after
his arrival-he was seriously ill and
1his condition stendly grew worse.
Paralysis developed last Saturday.
Prof. Charles'fliichmond Hender-
son became generally known to the
nation in 1892, when as a member of
an arbitration committee, he was
largely instrumental in settling the
street car strike at Detroit, Mich. He
was at that time pastor of the Wood-
worth avenue Baptist Church in De-
trolt. He was chosen Professor of So-
ciology of the University of Chicago
September 15, 1892. 5
When he was appointed chairman
of the Municipal Commission on Em-
ployment in Chicago last fall, Pro-
fessor Henderson was warned by his
physician that his health. impaired
by overwork, would not admit his
incurring the additional burdens of
ed the chairmanship and devoted
much time in studying the current
question of unemployent here.
in 1899 Professor Henderson serv-
ed as president of the National Con-
ference of Charities and Corrections,
in 1902 he was president of the
American Prison Association, and
in 1809‘ president of‘ the National
Children’s Home Society. “
