CARE IN TURNING NUTS. Particular care should be taken in turning up small nuts. It is an easy matter to break the bolt or stud if too much pressure is employed. This is one reason why solid-end wrenches are made in varying lengths. The wrench for a {in belt will be about oin long, whereas the wrench for a {in bolt will be clbsor to Bin. The wrench handle is made just long enough so that tho average man, without exerting too much force, can turn it up ns tight as it should go. This fact should bo remembered l when small nuts are being turned with a large wrench, ns is often tho case where an adjustable wrench is used. It is wise to stop turning a nut as eoon as a fairly stiff resistance is encountered. Tho same advice applies to email screws, such as those found in ignition devices. In turning up a tiny screw it is very easy to twist it in two. Of course, the best advice is to leave the ignition apparatus alone, but there are times when this advice cannot be followed.

Dodgo 500, Hudson-Essex 275, and Durant 100. All the world over it is -a recognised fact that roßd.mnk.ing cannot keep pace with the demand of motor traffic. Statistics show that whereas in 1914 in the United States of America there were seven motor cars to a mile of surfaced road, in 1921 tho estimated proportion was twentyseven cars to the mile.
