LACK OF Oil CAUSES TROUBLE
Study of Rear Axle Construction and
of Transmission Would Save Owner
Much Trouble and Some
Money.
It Is ft fact that a great numtier of
our oars are being driven over the
roads with noisy gears. This Is being
lone either through ignorance or In
direct defiance of that well established
rule "a stitch In time. etc." The noise
of the gear besides being unpleasant,
tells a story which the owner ought te
interpret in terms of dollars and cents.
Without knowing anything at all about
a rear axle or a transmission. thp
average man should bo able to know
the difference between a rear axle that
is normal and one that is not. lie may
not know the exact cause of the
trouble or the maimer in which It may
be remedied, but he certainly ought t<
be able to determine if it needs tin
attention of a mechanic. The reason
for this Immediate interpretation is
to save the owner money, for. like si
case of pneumonia developed from a
mere cold, if attention were given
early enough, the serious ailment woulr
not have developed. So with gears
Once ilie?!' bearings begin to wear ami

The rear axle is not the only ofTendei
The transmission gears need tlx
same protection, hut usually they an
not at fault.
In on lor to understand .lust hov
noisy gears come into being, on
should study the roar axle const rue
tion. The driving pinion at tho end o
the propeller shaft is mounted usunll
<>n two hearings. This pinion tneshe
with tho largo or rinu gear of the dit
ferontinl unit, tho unit itself hein
mounted on two hearings which re>
in the difTorontial housing. In orde
:liat the ring guar and tho pinion d
their work without noise the tooth <1
those gears must mesh properly. 1
the correctness of ihe mesh is d<
sfroyed then noise results. Should th
pinion sluift (hence the pinion Itself
move relative to the ring gear th
tooth contact is at once changed an
you get noise. The noise is not no<
essarlly a steady one, but It may li
interrupted, due to the fact that tli
new areas of contact of tho teeth ar
not all alike. There may he a his
spot on ono or two or more tooth an
, when those high spots are struck th
noise changes.
Lack of Lubrication.
The pinion hearings may he of tl
ball or roller type and there is, I
most cars, a moans of adjustment <

worn slightly. The eauso of tho wei

Wrinkles and Cracks in the "Skin"
Show Casing Is Getting Into
"Senile" Stage?Care in
Storing.
When numerous small sills and
cracks appear in a lire It is a sign
of the approach of oJd age. Auto
casings in this respect are like men
ami women. Although they don't got
gray haired, they do become wrinkled
and cracked, often chalky white in
appearance.
The fabric in an old tire gradually
becomes brittle and hard, so that It
breaks easily. Like the bones of old
people, it Is dlfllcult to knit. The tire
siirjifiin's work Increases in dilliculty
with the age of the casing.
Those whose str ngth is conserved
d<> not so readily show their age. The
best way to preserve their usefulness
is to take care of them. To hide the
effects of aire and wear motorists frequently
"dolJ them up," painting the
* side walls and washing with cleaning
solutions. Others pay no attention to
heir appearance and permit them to
1 go shabby.
Ordinarily the small cracks appear1
*
inur on the side walls do little harm
unless they penetrate through the rubber
covefing to the fabric underneath.
It is well worth the motorist's attention
to have his casings regularly inspected.
I Tires age fastest when lying
around. They are kept In best condition
in actuaJ service. If it is neces
. sary to store them they will retain
