tracks across a stream or ravine.
Timbre. The quality of a sound-the sort of soudn.
Time base. Circuits use din oscillo­scope to produce steady, repetitive horizontal sweep of electron beam. Resulting 'base' line represents time element in visual signal displays. Time-constant. Product of capaci­tance and tesistance in a circuit of resistors and capacitors (RIC cir­cuit); expressed in microseconds (J.LS) to specify response curve shapes such RIC circuits achieve. Time delay compensated. Applied to loud-speaker in which drive units are arranged in stepped fash­ion to compensate for delays aristing from differing cone depths. Time delay spectrometry. A new technique for acoustic measure­ment utilising a real time spectrum analyser.
Time lapse. A type of photography in which an interval of time is allowed to pass between each frame. When the finished film is viewed move­ment appears to be speeded up.
Time lap~e recording. On cam­corders, the ability to record just a few frames of video for every minute or so of acutal time.
Time of day. A definite time as shown by a time piece.

Timer. (Auto.) A device used on au­tomobiles to break primary igni­tion circuit at the proper time for the spark to occur in cylinders. (Tel.) A device for controlling machinery. appliance. or the like. in a spacified way at a predeter­mined time.
Time signal. A signal electrically or by radio to indicate a precise moment of time as a means of checking or regulating time pieces.
Time switch. (Elec.) A clock-con­ trolled switch.
Timing. (Auto. Mech.) (I) The ad­justment of valves and crankshaft of an engine in their relative po­sition to produce the greatest ef­fective output in h.p. (2) The point at which ignition breaker is set in relation to top dead-center posi­tion of the piston to secure the greatest effective expansive force upon head of piston.
Timing gear. (Auto.) The gears that drive the camshaft so that the valves operate in correct time with the pistons. Since the camshaft has to turn once for every two

Timing marks to Title page revolutions of the crankshaft, these gears must be in the ratio of 2 to I.
Timing marks. (Auto.) Ignition: Marks on engine flywheel or dy­namic balancer that align with a pointer at the instant No. I cylin­ . der is ready to fire. Valve: Marks on timing gears or sprockets to en­able mechanics to quickly and ac­curately time valves to piston po­sition.
Tin. (Metal.) A silvery-white metal with specific gravity 7.3. It is of very great value in the industries, chiefly in the making of alloys.
Tinctrue. (Wood Fin.) The finer and more soluble parts of a. substance separated by a solvent.
Tinder. Any dry inflammable mate­rial such as might be used for kin­dling a fire.
Tinning. (Metal.) (I) The process of coating iron plates with tin, in tin­plate manufacture. (2) Thecoating of a soldering iron solder previous to its use.
Tin-plate. (Metal.) A thin sheet of steel coated with tin.
Tinsmith. One who makes articles from tin plates.
Tin snips. (Sheet-Met. Wk.) The ordi­nary hand shears used by sheet­ metal workers.
Tint block. (Print.) A flat plate or electrotype used for printil1g a solid colour. UsuaIly the colour.
Tints. (Pailll.) Light colourings, es­peciaIly colours containing some white.
Tip mass. Effecitve inertia at tip of a stylus as seen by record groove at HE Given in milligrams (mgm).
Tip radius. (Aero.) (Or propeller radius.) The distance of the outer most point of a propeller balde from the axis of rotation.
Tire bolt. A bolt having a flat unslotted head; used. for attach­ing the metal tire to the felloe of a wheel.
Tire tool. (Auto.) A flat bar of iron or steel commonly spoken of as tire iron used for applying and removing tires. Any tool used for the same purpose can be consid­ered a tire tool.T
IlSSUe manila. (Papermkg.) Manila coloured tissue made of strong fiber.
Tlssue paper. (Papermkg.) A gen­eral term used descriptively with reference to different grades of very thin paper.
Titanium. (Metal.) A metallic ele­ment of the carbon group. Used in alloys with copper, bronze, and othe metals. Titanium oxide is one of the most important of the white pigments. Paints made from it wear exceptionally well.
Title block. (Draft.) The outlined space usually in the lower right corner, or in strip form across the bottom of a drawing, containing name of company, title of draw­ing, scale, date, and such other information as may be considered necessary.
Title page. (Print.) That page, at the beginning of a book, which con­
