KEEPING CAR Clean
MLny People Pay Little Attention
to Appearances. w. "
SMALL PARTICLES CUT metal
Good Washing With Soap and Water
Will Save Many Dollars in Repair
BiIIs-Avoid Soap on Highly
Polished Body.

Some people pay little attention II
the appearance of Their cars, washing
and polishing only on rare occasions.
A cleaning and polishing Is necessary
not only because it makes the car
look better but because it increases
life and makes for smooth running,
writes Fl. A. Tarantous of New York
in Orange Judd Farmer. Mud and
dirt on the running gear parts, such
rs brakes, universals, ETC., would be
perfectly harmless if it remained away
from the working parts. However,
the small particles work their way to
the moving parts and cut the metal.
'rh.s applies to the steering system
also.
A good cleaning of the running
gear with soft soap and water when
ever the mud accumu,ates will save
many dollars in repair bills. Use tepid
water md be free with it. A large
sponge we'll soaped should be used to
free the mud from its lodgings Do
not uHr this same sponge for the body
because the small particles of. SAND
will cut the finish. Use soft cloth for
cleaning.
Be Careful With Hose.
In using a hose around the car be
as careful as possible not to get water
INTO the brake drums and other parts.
II little care is exercised the water
can be kept away. Use the sponge
for these places to free the mud. In
washing the radiator direct the stream,
IF the water from the rear with the
hood lifted or off. II this is done no
water will get onto the motor and
POSSIBLY into the magnetic and carbu-
'etor. Clean the steering knuckles
md even the rear axle housing. After
he running gear is clean proceed with
he body.
Never use soap on highly polished
,ody. Nothing but water should be
used. If there are mud spots they
AhOuld be soaked off with water. If )
you rub the mud while it is hard 1t
will cause scratching of the varnish.
Apply a Polish. :
When the body has thoroughly dried
apply polish of some sort. The wax
polishes are good, and If applied once
a week will make the cars always look
bright. Liquid polishes which are
sprayed upon the body can be applied
IN about one-half hour. No rubbing is
necessary with these polishes. A WHIP +:
ing after applying Is all that is need

NO ORDERS HERE
FOR ENTRAININC
LAST OF QUOTA
Seventy-Five Negroes Are
Men Among Certified for
Service.
SIXTH DIVISION TO
USE IT'S LAST MAN
Boards in Other Districts
May Be Unable To Fill
Allotment.

Division boards in charge Of the
draft in Bridgeport have not certified
rs negroes for service in the national
army, but no orders have been re-
ceived here to send them in the last
Is per cent. to Camp Deyens.
The first division has about Is, the
second has two or three, the third has
about. 20, the fourth has IT, and the
sixth division about 20. The number
in the fifth division could not be as
certained.
This makes a total of rs in the di-
visions named, and probably there
will be a few in the fifth division.
In the sixth division about 65 col
ored men were registered and called
for examination but many or them
failed to appear. 49,,
Members Of the division exemption
board Of this city expressed them
selves as in the dark regarding the
time when the final Is per cent. of
Bridgeport's quota in the draft will
be ordered assembled. Every board is
making preparation for the call, and
in one division at least twill be nee
essary to examine more men. This is
the sixth, where the final quota will
be Al men, and will take the last man
on the list, not providing for any who
may not show up or for reflections.
In the first division 10 men will be
required to fill out the quota and pro-
vide for reflections. Judge f. A. Bart
lett, chairman of the board, is uncer-
tain how many are available, and the
process Of checking up is under way
In this division there are tbout Is col.
ored men.
The second division needs 81 mer
for its final quota without accountinf
for reflections, but has a reserve t.
draw from and will not be likely t,
make further examinations. Th,
board expects the reflections to b,
about 10 per cent, and will have mel
enough unless the proportion run
much higher.
The third division must send a
least 46 men to fill the final quota

If Mike Sirko, eight years old of 251

where he should have been, Truant
Officer James Farnan would not have
called at the house looking for him,
and would not have found the other
members of the family at home, lying
unconscious from the effects of il
Illuminating gas escaping through an
open cock upon the gas range in the
kitchen. He did discover them in

Mrs Sirko was in bed in a room
communicating with the kitchen and
also unconscious.
