KEEP BRAKES GRIP
TO MEET EMERGENCY
Exper, Tells How to Look After This
Important Part of Auto.

Your brake is your best friend in an
emergency. but like every other soou
friend IL must be treated right. If work
ing properly it gives you the greatest
sense of security. but if neglected your
life may pay the penalty.
There are only two kinds OF brakes,
internal and external. The internal
consists of a heavy ring which eNpands,
gripping the brake drum, fastened TO
tbe wheel. and so retarding or stop
ming its motion The internal brake is
called the internal expanding or eX-
lpanding ring brake
The external brake consists of a steer
hand lined with brake lining, a specially
woven fabric of asbestos and brass
wire. This is drawn tightly around the
brake drum, holding ii from the out
side. II is called the external contract
ing or contracting band brake.
THE names, service brake and emer-
gency brake. do not apply to the brakes
tbemselyes. but to the controls. The
medal usually applies the contracting
hand brake and is called the service
brake. as il is the one ordinarily used
IN service. IL is not as powerful as the

the car TO skid.
Another classification of brakes Is by
location; that is transmission brakes
and wheel brakes 4 transmission brake
is one that sets around drum on
some part of the transmission. IL

wheels to turn different ways, thus in

Athens, Sept. 10. -,correspondencc OF
III. Associated Press,l-The German adj
vance OF ss0.o0o.o0O tn the recent gov
.rnment OF King Constantine was H.
nanciai transaction quite out of the or
binary, az now developed under the
fierce scrutiny of the Venizelos govern
ment which displaced the Constantine
regime.
As summed NJ 10y NJ. Ncnizclos him
self. the peculiar features were. While
"A huge sum was involved yet no real
money passed from Berlin 20 Athens, as
II was all credit transaction To he set

as stated by Venizolo.. the depreciation
of the German mark was such that al

The German advance was made about
"A year ago. at the time the Constantine
ministry needed funds TO pay the army
which had been mobilized. For some
reason, however. Il was decided to make

ment along with other loans This was
about the time the entente allies pre-
scented an ultimatum demanding the de-
mobilization of the Greek army, which
probably accounts for the loan being

The Bank Of Greece is the storm-cen

sued the $4,000, 900 Of paper money. II

from one of the allied capitals. so he
will be less sympathetic toward ad-
vances from Germany. The govern

announces.
The German advance to the ConStan-
tine regime has thus become one of the
chief political and financial sensations
of the day, and has eliminated in a
complete turnover of the government

Greece's financial operations.

farm just across the Irving Bovine

The wisdom Of this action has been
conclusively shown, for since then
two dogs, owned by Irving residents
have been proven to have had rabies.
Both have been killed, and the Pas
teur Institute at Ann Arbor prom
ounced both to have rabies.
About two weeks ago dog owned
by Fred Wagner, a Freeport barber,
gave evidence of rabies, and was soon
killed, and the head sent to Ann Ar
Dor for examination.
The other dog was owned by Henry
Barber, on the II. w. Smith farm,
three miles southwest of Freeport.
Ten days ago it showed disposition
to attack members of the family. DIR.
Corson, the Freeport veterinary, was
called, shot the dog, and the Ann Ar
for specialists reported that it un-
doubleday had rabies, after examin-
ing the brain.
