GREEK CABINET
OUT; WAR NEAR
designations Indicate That
King Has Decided to
Join Allies.

London. Oct. 2.--The Greek Cabinet
has resigned. according to a Central
News dispatch from Athens.
This move has been foreshadowed for
some time, owing to the refusal of the
Entente to recognize the ministry of
Premier Kalogeropoulos. It's signifi-
canoe lies in its possible indication of
the attitude of King Constantine tow
ard Intervention in the war on the side
of the Allies.
Negotiations for the enlistment Of
Greece in the ranks of the Entente ma
tions had been greatly hampered by
the refusal OF the Allies to deal with
Kalogeropoulos's Cabinet. which was
believed to include several ministers in
sympathy with the Teuton cause.
II was made known yesterday that
King Constantine expected to announce
his decision to enter the war some time
to-day. 1t was also said once he had
reached a decision a national Cabinet
would be formed, in consultation with
the British Minister.
From this it is assumed here the
King has determined to cast the die and
is delaying the declaration Of war until
a new Cabinet can be formed and other
details arranged. Mobilization Of the
army is expected to be ordered to-mor-
row or Wednesday.

ADVISES STUDY OF
INSTRUCTION BOOK
Motorists Would Save Themselves
Trouble by Famiiiarizing Them
selves with Detail Work,

To show how automobile owners
may aid in keeping their cars in
shape, Charles S. Baker formerly a
department foreman in the Chandler
factory and now head of the repair
department of the Arkansas Automo-
bile company of Pine Bluff, submits
the following observations:
at frequently happens that an
owner will drive his car up to a ser
vice station, spending probably fifty
minutes in making the trip there and
back, only to find that the service to
his car requires but minute or two
to perform and proves to be some lit
tie attention he could have given him.
self by noting the advice in his in
struction book.
Take the steering gear as an eX-
ample. This is one of the most vital
parts of the car. 1t is a part that
makes car pleasant or disagreeable
to drive, depending upon whether it
is well fabricated. To overcome the
objection of hard steering we place
oil cups on all wearing parts of the
steering mechanism.
eff an owner brings his car in for
inspection, the service expert oils
these parts, but only enough for 500
miles. Now, most owners drive their
cars greatly in excess of 500 miles be-
tween inspections. Yet it never oc-
ours to some drivers to oil the steer
ing mechanism, and the result is that
the car becomes hard steering.
Here is another specific instance.
At every inspection the springs are
creased between the leaves. Several
days after the inspection the owner
may drive his car over muddy roads.
The constant movement of the springs
and the splashng Of water is quite
and squeaking springs are not serious
faults. Yet they are annoying; and.
more to the point, they are troubles
that would never exist If the owner
