The unequal adjustment Of brakes
probably does more damage to tires
than actual wear. When one wheel
locks and he other turns free there is
a great amount of strain on the fabric
of the tires on the locked wheel. BY
placing jacks under each rear wheel
one can adjust the brakes of each
wheel so as to be uniform.

An Exciting Runaway

Wednesday shortly after noon a team of horses belonging to Frank A. Buck, and driven by him, started to run when in front of the Holbrook State Bank. Realizing that he could not stop the team, as they passed the postoffice MT. Buck jumped from the wagon and sustained a slight injury to his right hand. The team continued down the street past the PutneY and Rabbit warehouses and were halted near the Standard Oil plant by running into two other teams.
 One of the horses was seriously injured by having a broken piece of the wagon pole driven into his lower shoulder. The runaway was caused by the team becoming frightened when a neckstrap became unfastened and allowed the neckyoke to drop to the ground. MT. Buck considers it fortunate that he was alone when the team started to run, and he congratulates himself that his injuries were not greater and his loss so small.

Johnson Was Insane

That James Johnson, the Hol- brook restaurant man who mur- dered his wife and committed suicide near Taylor, July 5, was subject to frequent attacks of insanity IS evidenced from the following comment made by the Graham County Guardian of Saf- ford:
 Johnson, who is the son of Mrs. J. $. Johnson. mother of Mrs. George Graham, lived here with his wife and daughter several months ago before going to Globe. At that time, while temporarily insane, he attempted suicide by drinking a bottle of lysol, but was saved by the quick work of Dr. Martin. who had been hastily summoned.
 The family moved to Globe and later to Taylor, Navajo county.

WinsLolp Church Dedicated

Last Sunday the new M. B. church in Winslow was dedicated with impressive services. The exterior of the church building is constructed of red sandstone and stucco; it was designed by w. A. Parr and was constructed under his supervision. It's cost was $7,OOO, and there IS not a dollar of indebtedness against the structure, $1O45 having been raised after the services Sunday to finish paying the cost of the building.
 The services Sunday morning were conducted by Dr. A. w. Atkinson; in the evening by Rev, Thomas Hambly of Flagstaff.
 Rev. Cole, pastor of the church. is deserving of great credit for his success in securing the new church. He has been In charge of the Methodist work in Winslow for only one year. and the new church building is a splendid monument to his ability as a church builder.
