ing frequency since the third Atlanta

rules were due to get the worst of it
■when they stood between the show
eomnuttee and some desired object.

■which the present show 1s being con-
■ ducted were adopted from those gov
erning the big national show at New
Tork And they are sometime* a tri
fle stiff and formal for actual use- In a
dealer’s show like that at Atlanta.

water.

LOOK OUT FOR STRAINERS.
If your car has exhaust gas pressure
for the gasoline feed, it is advisable to
make an examination of the feed
strainers and other cleaners, through
which the gas passes on its way to the
tank. If a car is in continual use or is
using excessive amounts of oil and gas,
the dirt accumulated in the strainers
will naturally be heavier and the in
spection should he made more often.
TO HOLD SCREWS.
The screws used in various places
about a motor car often work loose. It
is possible sojnetlmes to hold them se
curely in place by using a small staple,
such as is utilized in fastening up wire
netting. The staple is driven into the
wood, so that it lies in the slot in the
screw head, effectively locking it.

SAVANNAH, GA.,
tham county is looking for a new lna .
terial to keep its country roads in con
dition. The road commisisoners want
to discover a material that can l„.
put down as cheaply as gravel and that
will wear longer. The roads of the
county now cost S3OO a mile each year
to maintain, even when they are kept
up with convict labor.
Most of the roads in Chatham eountv
arc paved for a width of 16 feet, it
has been suggested that It might be a
good thing to put iA a roadway 12
feet wide of some more lasting and
durable material than gravel. Brick
has been considered and discarded be
cause of its initial cost. Asphalt block
has also been given consideration, but
it has not been adopted so far be
cause of its cost. There is a compo
sition made up of asphalt and granite,
but this is not entirely practical here,
because of the great distance the stone
would have to be transported. i n lo
calities where the stone is easily ac
cessible this style of road paving has
been adopted with much success.
It has been suggested that it would
be feasible to have a narrow roadway
of say 12 feet in the center of the
thoroughfare, flanked on either side by
a’ good gravel paving.
