'f:?Z{f- <(;?i:?':rf{ )}:, ",1-J1i:Sz;'ff.i«:rff:Jl:i INCREASED PRICE. On Monday Feby. 26th, THE DAILY SKETCH WILL BE I ONE PENNY I It is perhaps unnecessary to explain in detail all the reasons which have enforced ¡ this decision on the part of the publishers of the "Daily Sketch." "A m It is a War Measure. The price of high grade paper, shortage of labour, the advance in charges for all commodities used in the production of a news and picture paper have forced the decision to increase the price of the ft "Daily Sketch" by one half-penny a decision delayed as long as possible and j| now made with reluctance. g. This increase is in no sense a profit- j making step-as soon as the strain of war conditions is relieved the 'I- 'B price will be reduced. For months past tIle paper lias been produced at a very great loss. The "Daily Sketch" asks its readers to share part of the burden of production in war-time. This is a bold step. It is vitally necessary if this paper is to maintain its high standard in news, special articles and world photo- graphs. The readers of the "Daily Sketch" are I sensible of the advance in prices and of the: unprecedented difficulties of production and distribution. They have watched the steady increase in the price of EVERYTHING. The in- j crease in newspapers was bound to come, the burden so long borne by the publishers must be shared by the public '< • ■$:r it In the stress of running a newspaper there is nothing so encouraging as the goodwill and sympathy of its readers, and the "Daily I Sketch" is happy in the relationship which unites it with its public. It is the satisfaction and assurance of the "Daily Sketch" that the change in price will permit it to maintain the high quality in matter, in pictures, in paper and letter- press which up to now has made the "Daily Sketch" so popular at home and abroad. i ";L;{:fr!;).;r:{:¥ø;j'?" :lJ{, ":í,' 'J ':i/ ):

GYCLING & MOTORING.
GYCLING & MOTORING. I Some Hints for t?ie Middle- Aged Rider. In these days, when the bicycle is recog- nised even by the Government as a national necessity, there is still many men of forty and over who will tell you that they are too old to learn to ride the simplest and handiest way of getting about. Never was a greater fallacy. To every such man I have one little piece of advice to yive. Set the saddle of your bicycle 60 low that you can sit in the saddle with your, feet on the ground. It isn't the best way for riding. Your kneep I will be cramped too much. But it gii-es you a feeling of security when you know that you have only to put your feet out to prevent a tall. In the early days of novitiate this little plan will be found to g?o the desired sense of 6ufety. and after you han learnt, to ride properly the saddle can be gradually raised to the full height. Another middle-aged man's fal- Jury is that cycling is hard work. It need iiot, I)e. THE THREE SPEED GEAR. Every nr.ddlc-aged man's bicycle should j he fitted with a three-speed gear. That is a littlo iitiuent in the back hub which gives you separate gears for separate pur- poses. For hill-climbing you have a low gc<u which makes it as easy to ride up an ordinary hill as to walk. On the level you naxe a normal gear and then a high gear for use when you ili-e czailiilg betore the wind and want to take full advantage of it. The man who uses his bicycle for utility and who, therefore, contemplates rides of but a few miles at a time will find that it is far les-s tiling than walking even a third of the distance would be. CHOICE OF A BICYCLE. The question of price does not appeal to the man cf middle-age so much as what he is getting for his money, and in a bicycle, like a watch or any other mechanical production, if you want to get the best value you must be prepared to pay a reasonable price for it. For £ S or til you will got a good, reliable bicycle, but if you can.afford it. it will pay you to go up to from £10 to n5. \ou get better value for your money at £15 than you do at E5. In the iirst place you get a machine, which, in all probability, will l-t you your lifetime. The cheap machine wears out in a couple of years and, • moreover, is often a visitor io the repair {■hop, and therefore a constant expense. Moreover, it is much harder, to drive. That is not appreciable in a short run, but over, say, twenty miles you will be much more tired than on a high grade. THE BEST PLAN. I lie very best plan, to-day is to to a j agent whom you know, either in your own town or village or s-ome adjoin- ing mnrket town, and place yourself in 11: bauds. If you Lr>'>n- him to bo a reii- I able man you can rely upon it that he wan t let you down." lie can't afford it, for probably you arc a customer in other directions. Arid you have him close at biud if you should not be satiffied. All the h-?t makers have thtir .?f?s throuph- out <hp Mn?dom. nnd if vou dMi wiih a map of local standing and buy a machine which hns a reputation—and there are l?l "n ty on th? marker.— you may !?a?na'i:v w;It/Lnn;c\!V':fH¡L.f.iuc for y?r monov. The roads have been worse during the past two or three months than I eviir remember tfccm to have been, not even excepting in the "good old days," when so much less attention was de- voted to our big I1, ways. I am not com- plaining, because I ronlisr} that the combination of the shortage of labour and 1110 large amount, of exceptionally heavy traffic to which our roads have been sub- jected is only one of the minor disad- vantages of the war; hnt J am rather merely stating a fact. The question of suitable mudguards is therefore an im- poriant one, but as most modern machines j are excellently equipped :.1 ihis respect,. the rider is well protected. What I want to draw attention to is the need for keep- injj them in good condition. If. after a winter's use, you make a close im-poe- tion of the under side of the mudguards you are more likely then to find that rust is making preliminary inroads into tho metal. It is difficult to see how it could j be otherwise, since this part of the machine is subjected to continual scrap- ing, necessary to remove the congoaled mud from beneath the guards. DANG E R OF RUST. J f rust be allowed to gather, a lot of j h'cuMo will he ("augd with loosened 6trav rivets, if nothing wors?. It is a v?ry j good plan to paint the under side every now and then, scraping off all the rust before applying the paint. Much better than ordinary paint 1 find a mixture of two parts of red lead and )ii-e part ot wiiite lead, together with sufficient boiled oil to make semi-liquid. It possesses the double advantage of being easy to pre- pare and inexpensive. It is also a good ;)1an to make a practice of dabbing with this paint not only the inside of the mudguards, but the brake shot's and other brake parts liable to rust, exposed holts: and nuts, lamp brackets, and all crevices where damp doth delight to congregate. AN EXTRA BRAKE. All motor cycles are fitted with two brakes, and to ensure immunity from accidents it is very necessa ry to see that they arc always in good working order, iiauy and many a bad spill lias been caused owing to faulty brks. It. how- ever. one should bo so unfortunate a,,5 to have both brakes go wrong at the same time—a very uncommon occurrence, I will admit—it is possible to trust to the compression of the engine to act in this way. A little time ago 1 was riding a ■ friend's machine, on which one of tie] brakes was useless. In descending a nasty hill-as a matter of fact the one leading (Iotvu in Koignto—tlie Qne ja:n!>ed,and had it not been for the knowledge of this tip L would have had a bad accident. The thing to do is to raise the valves, thus converting tho engine into au air- pump. On tho down stroke of the piston no return of energy is passed to the fly- wheel, and, moreover, energy is used up in pumping the air in and out of the cylinders. In addition to this, friction of the engine iiets as a brak?. The magneto cut-out on a racing machine is a good t means of slowing for rounding corners, and it serves the nccessary effort required i act it thc' TICe,?- for lifting the valves. On a variable-speed machine dropping into low gear, and keep- ing the clutch at such a point that it slips and does not turn the engine, will produce a considerable braking influence. MOTORING. To economise petrol, and to 8Cftew an- other mile or two per gallon out of the ) car, is 3, praiseworthy, effort. But it can be overdone, when the last state is in- finitely worse than the first. To tinker about with tho carburetter is all very well for the experienced person, but for I the no-ice to do so uearly always snells trouble. In the early days of motoring we, perforce, learnt so much about the vitals of the carburetter that it is second nature to us to tinker about with the ad- justment until we secure the maximum of efficiency. The average owner of a latter-day car, however, knows :?;! much about carburettor adjustments as he docs about bimcttnlism, and unless he goes to work with great; care he may easily do mc-re harm than good. SOME GOOD ADVICE. • Tito best advice I can give is not to experiment alone with different sized jets, leaving ah the ot-ler parts as they were, but try a complete new set—jet, choke tube, air cone, ct" choosiniz IL j(,t a size or two smaller than you have been ac- customed to us.?, and other things to match. The makers may be relied upon t.i have fitl.'d original; the combination that Rives the best all round results as far as speed, flexibility, and fuel economy arc concerned, and most likely anv interfer- ence with one unit will effect no improve- ment. but. will destroy the balance of the whole. QUESTION OF LUBRiCATION. One of tho greatcct difficulties, 1 always think, that il,e owner driver no. ice has to face- is how properly to l.:]:.1a1:O, t. J.:r-.I. 1.1.. v.t"J. J u. ;t. lion is. anù what carious results may accrue if any parts'bo neglceted. But kis difficulty is to loww just where he t.hould oil and how much ho ehoiild apply. The following are the most im- portant parts of the mechanism, and none of these must bo neglected. On a car which is in puetty regular use, grease all caps on tho steering gear and its con- nections once a month, and oil tho clutcji fork, throttle and ignition controls, gear changing conpeetions, brake joints and torque-rot] once a fortnight. SOME USEFUL REMINDERS. Grease, tire .spring sluicklc and pin cup. tho fan bearing and the clutch spigot bearing every thousand miles or and tho) fnont hubs, tho 1 eves of the springs, tho steering gear box, hack axle, gear box. universal joints, speedometer bear- ings every ten to twelve hundred miles. Oil tho mrgneto bearings t very thousand miles or w. To this list I should add clean the plugs once every two nxcmeis, test the brakes before every run, and always'start out with clean lamps. As a rule, a lubricating chart, is supplied with 1 41-( 1 W tl I every new car, giving full particulars ot where the oiiing should be done and how to do it. But as a rule the chart is lost after a few months, and thus the above, simple rules should bo kept for reference. Tho Wanderer. FREE BOOK FOR CYCLISTS.
