Rear Axles and Their Care

The rear axle is one IL the hardest
working mechanical units in the
motor car. Its function is not alone
to bear weight, but to transmit power.
Every minute that the car Is in mo-
ton the rear axle is the site of in
tense mechanical activity. AS a con-
sequence, this part of the mechanism
requires careful attention and every
car owner ought to understand some
thing about the unit in order to be
able to give IL the care IL needs.
Rear axles may be divided into< two
main classes. live and dead. Live
axles are the type practically exclu-
sively used on modern passenger cars.
The term live. means simply that the
axle turns. Dead axles do not turn
and their use is confined to vehicles
having double chain drive.
Live axles are subdivided into three
classes, which are called fioatins,
semi-fioating and three-quarter floating
and a further classification is made
according to the type of gearing en-

experts at the service station. Moo
rear axle adjustments and repairs are
beyond the ordinary car owner.

GUESTS At DINNER

The members of the Americus Light
Infantry will be the honored guests to-
night at a complimentary dinner to be
given at the armory at o'clock by the
ladies of this city. The gustatorial
feature ofSthe evening will be followed
by a dance, also rendered to the sold
iers by the citizens of Americus.
On Sunday the members of Company
l were entertained in the private
hcmes of Americus, a committee of
ladies arranging the plans by which
the soldiers in groups of two or three,
were assigned as dinner guests in var
ious homes throughout the city.
Many of the boys reside in this city
or have relatives here, but there are
many whose homes are in outlying sec
tons of the county and it was for the
benefit of these guardsmen that the
ladies conceived the idea of entertain
ing them in private homes for Sunday
dinner
The company mess was abandoned
for Sunday noon and every guardsman
was invited out to dinner as an ex>
preston of the esteem in which the
organization is held here and the inter
est felt for the boys by the citizens of
Amerdicus.
The dinner tonight has been arrang
ed by committee Of ladies who have
had the cooperation of the citizens
generally and the occasion will be in
the nature of a farewell praty for the
soldiers who leave tomorrow morning
for the mobilization camp at Macon.
How long they will be stationed in Ma
con or where they will be sent from
the mobilization camp. is uncertain
The public is invited to attend the
dance which will begin at o'clock.

GEORGIA GUARD
To Be MOb|LREO
DURING THE WEEK

MACON, Ca, June 25.-There will
be busy scenes at old Camp Harris in
Macon this week-for not only are the
men of the Second Georgia Infantry,
now scattered over the Southeast, to
be brought home, but the entire Geor-
gia brigade will be re-mobilized here
during the week.
Arrangements have been entered into
with the railroads fof he movement of
troops. Camp Harris has been made
ready for the First and Fifth regiments
of infantry and other units of the bril-
eade to be returned here.
1t is said that there will be more
soldiers in Macon before the end of
this week than we're here before the
Georgia troops left for Ell Paso.
The arrangements of the regiments
will be somewhat different under the
re-mobilizing of the brigade than when
first modified. 1t is understood that
the Second Georgia Infantry will re-
main where it is at the present time
and that the other regiments will be
stationed along new road through
fhe camp grounds to the Bellevue car
line. The road has been built during
the past week.
There is lot of work to be done at
Cal2p Harris today and tomorrow.
Many of the troops, it is reported are
TO arrive here Tuesday, and all of the
Second Georgia men are to be here on
that date.
A recruiting campaign is to be put on
by the Second Georgia Infantry during
this week Col ]. A. Thomas an
nounces that 700 men are needed to
bring the regiment up to war strength,
because of the fact that men have been
on guard duty it has been impossible
to get the recruits necessary.
Oafcers of the Second Infantry are
anxious to have middle and South
Georgia men to enlist in the Second
Georgia, so that the organization will
be purely middle and south Georgia
one.
