WATCH INSTRUMENT BOARD
Watching the oil gauge on an in-
strument board, the ammeter and
the oil level in the crank case should
be made a habit, for it is easy to run
low on crankcase oil and distilled
battery water without realizing it.
and oil pressure without realizing it.
and the oil pressure sometimes needs
adjusting. -
'BRAKE MUST BE PERFECT
Bad brake adjustment will wear
the tires out in no time at all, and
this may result in a bent front axle.
If one front brake is tighter than the
other and pressure is applied quickly
in an emergency, the front axle is
subjected to a twisting strain which
even the toughest steel cannot resist.
NOISY VALVES
Impro; eely adjusted valves will
cause the engine to run unevenly
and also give less power and mileage.
Adjust valves to proper clearance.
Be sure however, not to get the val-
ves too tight as this will cause lack
of power. Always have the valves
free and all of them of the sumo
clearance. This adjustment usually
will suffice to produce, smoother run-
ning and put more pep into the en-
gine.
INSTALLING NEW TIMING
GEARS
In the installation of a new set of
tinting gears, it is imperative that thee
relative positions of the crankshaft
and crarnshaft be absolutely preserv-
ed, in order that the timing remain
unchanged. One method of achiev-
ing this result is to leave the old
of anchoring the two shafts is to
wedge the flywheel so it cannot
turn. The stiffness of the new gears
makes the task more difficult,
TO STOP DRAUGHTS IN CARS
The strong circulation of air fell
by occupants on the back seat of au
enclosed car is always a discomfort,
especially when one is susceptible to
colds. This draught may be traced ,
to an opening between the glass and
frame of the rear windows, and then
circulating behind the upholstery ,
and; then circulating behind the up-
holstery and coming out at the join- !
ing of the back and side lesions of
the upholestery..This condition may
be remedied by a generous suffering ,
of rags in the corners of the ear be-
hind' the upholstery.

VERY SIMPLE
LEN=GTHENING LIFE OF CAR
One of the greatest costs the mo•
tor owner faces is that of deprecia-
tion. Aside from bad driving, which
includes undue ripping of gears and
bumping into telephone poles and
other people's car's, the' road surface
over which the car is driven has most
to do with its premature death. The
normal :life of a car depends upon
the treatment given it by the owner,
which indirectly has to do with the
highways over which he drives. An
ertra year of service may he squeez-
ed out of a rattle -trap just as it can
be done with. an old pair of shoes.

WHANI&DAY, MAT 20th, 1929,
txst
R two successive summers.
Charles M. • Bremner of Toronto
worded about his family in their Mus-
koka cottage. Mainly, he worried
about fire, Suppose sparks or flying
embers from some nearby fire lodged
on the roof. Suppose, while he worked
in the city, his summer cottage became
a prey to flames!
The very idea made him shudder --
not the thought of, losing his cottage,
but the danger to his family.
Finally Mr. Bremner did a very
sensible thing. He reduced the fire
hazard in his summer cottage by roof-
ing it with Brantford Asphalt Slates.
He thus not only recovered his peace
of mind, but immeasurably beautified
his summer home as well. -
)ilii -�'' .-••''..._s
Hundreds of owners .of summer
homes are this year following Mr.
Bremner's example. They, are roofing
their cottages with Brantford Asphalt
Slates because Brantford Asphalt
Slates combine distinguished beauty
and permanence with the utmost in
fire and weather protection. Sparks
and flaming brands from a nearby fire
die out harmlessly on their slate- •
coated .surface. They are vigilant
guardians of your home the year
around—the months you live in it and
the months you are away.
Write for booklet "Beauty With
Fire Protection",—an authoritative
treatise on the type, style, design and
colour for your roof.

HOME LIFE OF WESTERN
INDIANS HAS IMPROVED
Prosperous Conditions Reflected in
Better Homes and Advanced Mode
• of Living.
The progress with the Indians as
on reserves in the' three Prairie Prov-
inces toward a position of self sup-
port and Andependenee is one of
gratifying features of the work of
the Department of Indian Affairs.
In farming and cattle raising theee
wards of the government have dur-
ing recent years, scored conspicuous
successes and the prosperous con-
ditions prevailing on western res-
erves are reflected in the improved
mode of living. New house: are
springing up on all the reserves at
the annual rate from 350 to 100.
These are of log and frame construc-
tion with et least six windows pro •
-
t-iding ample light and venttitation.
Well kept gardens are laid out near
many of these homes while match
cows, flocks of poultry, and Ings pre
not uncommon sights in the barn-
yards.
The improvement in home life on
the reserves is due in a rarer meas-
ure to a training received by the
young Indian woman in the boarding
schools maintained by the Depart-
ment. In these they learn among
other things the principles of domes-
tic science and hygiene. At one time
it was a difficult matter to make the
Indians realize the value of milk as
a food for themselves and their
children to get them to milk their
cows. However, a graduel change
development fo gardening is anoth, r l
gratifying feature of the Indian pro -1
gress and last year nearly •350 acres]
were sown to vegetables.
In the matter of hygiene, the De-
partment of Indian Affairs makes 1
every effort to encourage good prac-
tice. Where the wives and mothers!
are school graduates, the value of;
sanitary conditions is fully realized, I
and among the older Indian women •
work of the travelling nurses and
field matron: is gradually hearing
fruit for travelling nurses are eon-
stantly on the road visiting Indian
hones on the various reserve: in tee
West, instructing the women how ti
(live end how to care for their ch 11,1-
1 ren. This: eet•t•iee is supplemented by
Ithe work of a stats' of field matrons
who make frequent visits to give any
advice and assistance needed by the
native women.
The care of the aged is also partic-
ular responsibility of the Department
and officers on the reserves provide
food, clothing; and homes for indi.
gent member.; of the bands. During
the last thr,', years the policy of the
Department has been to discourage
es many old Indians as possible to
live in, teepees are usually large and
well ventilated and the old Indians
are greatly benefited in health by
this practice of living in these airy
summer hahitattone.
