This probably accounts for tho Knock and exrrssiv noise when the xuotor runs fa.st. It is a very serious matter to run without oil, and the extent of damage done cun hardly b measured.

When the cold water strikes the overheated cylinders It. i.i very apt to crack fcame, due to tho rapid contraction which takes place. There is no doubt about tho efhek-ncy of the thermo-siphon system of water circulation to maintain an engine at tho proper temperature, but there one very important point uhieh phould not be overlooked. It Is sirr.ply that there must at all times be FuJ'icient water in the radiator to cover the outlet from the cylinder:;. Advice that radiators should be refilled at regular interval- is not as necessary where positive pump circulation is maintained, but in the. thermosiphon sy:-:teni there can be no siphonic aet ion uiilt fs the water in the radiator is maintained at the proper level.

Heavy Camer Laid at WASHINGTON", March n.. Offi-

ri.ils declare that th heaviest camera barrage In the world is that periodically laid down in front of the entrant to the white houso executive office?, t'ormnercial find news photograJdiers unite with battalions of movie

tuen in formidable and dl.-concert-

:g array whenever a group of dis

tinguished visitors or somo labor i ommittce or other body temporarily In thf limelight appears for a conference. Occasionally a lone caller regarded as "rood filr.i" by the discerning cameramen is "shot" going in and coining out. The day may be chill iind th Mkles overcast but the victim is mercillessly subjected to the rrdeal of the lens, in order that the 5 taper-reading or movie-going puble may be rivaled later with his image. The true test of sang- frrid around the white house used to be u drawing room entry at on) of the retentions when names were ioudly called and the arrival advanced beneath hundreds of inquiring yes into the presence of the chief exeou-

a Barrage White House tive. Nowadays, the courageous or retiring nature is brought out by the men with the boxes. The "stance" of some otticials high in government counsels is very poor when tho movie machines turn loose. On the other hand. many display talents unfortunately lost to cinema studios with "careless but knobby" poses. The news film men still speak admirably of the great form of tho prince of Wales. On the occasion of his recent visit to Pres't Wilson he stood, walked, smiled and talked with endless patience while the celluloid was ground out. Sec'y Joseph 1. Tumulty is the "best bet" of any official, but he cannot be classed as an amateur, having faced the camera about as often as the movie idol. All the ingenuity and persistence of the cameramen frequenting the executive offices at present is directed toward obtaining pictures of Pres't Wilson. Their efforts have not yet gained them the necessary permission and the attempt to photograph the president from a load of hay was broken up by secret service operatives.
