From Drowning in Lake
Miss V. Mussewhite, daughter ofa-
Blackfield farmer,' was saved from
drowning in Mopley Lake, Fawley,
near Southampton, recently, by the
horse which -she had been driving to
a trap, says "The Cardiff Times."
She had stopped at the edge of the
lake to give the horse a drink of water
when the animal -misted its footing,.
fell in about eight feetof water and
drew the trap after it. Miss Mussel-
l' . white was hitched head first into the
lake: She .could not. swim, but manag-
ed. to struggle clear of the horse and
the ` tangled reins. The horse also
kicked itself clear, saw that Miss Mus=:,
selwhite was fighting in the water a
few yards away and swam toward
her.

ENGINE OF CA.iI :,ZUST BE KEPT COOL TO WORIC.
Every motorist should understand
at least a little' about the principles of
,engine cooing and why .it is .necessary.
for a cooling system,,' to be functioning
properly in every automobile. He
should know that the .automobile eats
gine derives its power from. heat, A
charge' of gasoline, mixed with air, is
taken .into the :cylinder of the engine.
ie a comparatively cool. state. In the'
cylinder it is compressed and ignited:
As it burns the temperature is greatly
increased and the pressure in the cyl-
inder increases in proportion to the
increase. in the temperature.
HOW POWER I8 DERIVED,',
That's how it comes about that
power is derived .for driving the iia-
chine. However, the excessive tem,
perature, which reaches 2,000 to $,000'
degrees Fahrenheit, heats the irorking
parts of the engine, that is, the pis-
tons and cylinders, to such an extent
that unless some of the heat is dissi-
pated it would. be impossible to main-
tain a fil'rn of oil between these work-
ing .parts. Deprived of 'lubrication
they would stick fast and the engine
would cease to fynction.
Furthermore, the metal parts form-
ing the combustion chamber would also
-get so hot that the incoming charge of
fuel would be ignited as soon as it.
came in contact wwith'them. And that
would mean more trouble.
That is why it's necessary 'to carry
oil enough heat to -keep - the working
parts cool enough _so they will permit
both proper lubricationand insure.
Control. of the ignition. To accom-
plish
ccomplish these desirable results, every.
automobile is provided with a cooling
system.
In the water cooled system, found
on- most cans, the heap is absorbed
from the cylinders by,weter carried: izi
jackets surrounding the cylinders. The
hot water there flowa to; the radiator
where the cool air extracts the heat
from it."
A pump generally is enlp oyed to
maintain a circulation of water; It
.takes the heated liquid and sends it
from the cylinder to the : radiator,
-where it travels through many small
passages surrounded "by air space.
This provides a -large area of surface
for the air to come in contact with
thewater, and a fan keeps the air
in lively circulation. So much' of the
heat is extracted from that water
that it is possible to return compar-
atively cool water to the cylinder for
itto get hot again. And that, in
brief, is the cooling process. -
EFFIc1nNCY IN OPERATION.
The engine, to operate at its great-
est efficiency, should be rather warm
when running, because whatever heat
is carried off is not turned into power,
Overcool the .engine and its power is
decreased..' A car maybe provided
with a visible thermometer in its radi-
ator to give the priver a checkup on
this situation, and the' -amount of . air
circulating through the radiator may
be controlled with shutters.
The 'Operator of a motor vehicle
will do well to study whatever cooling
system his car niay have. Some auto-
mobiles are entirely air cooled. No
water is used. He should know what
he has and how to get the -best results
in all kinds of weather.

results the winter will bring will, in
the' form of improvement or'acavenge-
merit, depend largely upon the indi-
vidual-particularly

reached manhoodor womanhood. Will
we simply waste the time or will we
.be better informed when the spring
comes than we tree at present?
Why not study Canada? True, it

plenty of material available in the
several departments of the provincial
and federal governments that may be
obtained either free or at a merely_,

of Canada. The political geography
is fairly well known --the boundaries. •

would probably not be nearly .so well

in many ways. They have inculcated
a spirit: of pride in our country, they
have enabled the"members. to answer .
-the innumerable questions of . the new
