I Is A PRECAUTION which the motorist can take against
» - -g dead" of his storage battery. under the grueling lighting
eterting service that comes with the cold mornings and long
at winter. He can add to the amount of charging which it
during the limited time when current is supplied it by the
' tor. by increasing the volume of the generator current. Years
manufacturers of electrical equipment rather disapprove: of
l seasonal adjustments of the charging rates of their genera-
but now. with a great majority of all cars being used through-
-e winter. the practice of increasing'charging rates tor winter
and decreasing them for summer driving has become rather
lly approvad. 'l'he motorist. who at this season. finds hat
slits tend to burn dimly. when the engine is stopped. and that
starter is somewhat sluggish in its cranking eflect. may well con-
encouraging his battery by giving it more "juice" to store.
, i .. body knows what happens to his bank account. when deposits
mctlcslly nil and withdrawals are heavy. It gets down to noth-
i! it isn't actually overdrawn. and it is just the same with the
'r - hemicai savings bank. known as a storage battery. A few
tea stop at a reliable electrics. service station will give them
. to make the adustment required to’ secure a charging rate
"" 3h larger so as greatly to decrease the liability of battery ex-
" i‘on. As a rule generator output should be increased so that
: a charging current goes to the battery. even when all regular
bu are burning, for unless this is done. there is no charging ac-
f 3plished except during daylight driving and the duration of this
«likely to prove insufilcient to meet requirements. Although gen-
f’. ly more satisfactory. it is not necessary to go to a service station
.. charging rnto alterations. as any careful motorist can do _the
k himself. by following the directions given in his instruction
. Gencrntors with third—brush regulation are the most common
. and their output to the battery is increased by slightly moving
. third-brush in the direction in which their armatures rotate. On
no recent docixns, the third-brush holder is secured in a slide. and
lien the locklnn-uut is looscnctl. it can he moved most conveniently
~ any desired position. while the engine is running and theretoro

7 '1‘. O. K. uh: Would too much
engine oil or not enough make the
clutch of In?— car slip?
Answer! this car. the engine,
the transmission and the clutch are
all oiled- by splash from the oil
which is raised 'by the flywheel
from the supply in the bottom of
the crankcase. The clutch discs are
lubricated at all times and their
lubrication is beyond regulation.
02 course. the crankcase level.
should not be carried higher than
recommended. but we think that
the clutch discs are as oily as they
can be at all times. The slipping
at your clutch may be caused by’
lack of spring pressure, which you
can correct by following the ad-
jufiment directidns contained in
y r instruction book. If you are
u I’ a trade of oil heavier than
recommended. this may account
for slipping and you might stop in.

torting money from various oil com-
panics.
A radiogram received here from
