REPRESENTATIVE MANN

RECOGNITION 6v STATE AM
FEDERAL AUTHORITIES AND
THE RETALIATION OF THE
GREAT HIGHWAY WILL HAVE
BEEN REACHED.
The good roads movement in Geor-
gya has been given greater impetus
within the last sixty days than has
ever been recorded in the state-and
this applies with especial force .to
Glynn county.
Good roads enthusiasts. especially
in the Eleventh district, realize as
never before the golden opportunities
that await them in the realization OF
their hopes, by getting busy, to Ieceivt
material aid from the state of Georgia.
and from the United States.
But
There are certain conditions to b,
complied with, and until this is don
there will be no federal or state aid
On Tuesday, Feb. 3, there will be
held in JaSnp one of the greatest meet
ings OF good roads enthusiasts evel
held in this section of Georgia. Al
ready plans are being perfected 70
the entertainment of the great tnfeRs
that will ba present on that day te
boost the highway-espeeially the one
leading. to Brunswick.
There will be many road experts
advocates and officials present. in nj
dition to representatives from tn,
boards OF county, commissioners
Brunswickians will be there by the
score and when the meeting adjourn.
Engineers ! Neel. .McWhorter and
Rhodes will realize that Brunswick is
aroused as never before on the subject
Of a highway.
Representative p. f. Mann, one Of
THE most enthusiastic good roads ad
vocates-in the state, and a booster for
the highway to Brunswick, and Incl
deptally, member of the highways
committee in the legislature wheG
seen by News reporter last night
made the following statement:
'"rhe new state highway law passed
by the last legislature is now in effect
and what is to be the state paved high
way through each county is now 10
Gated.
The new law provides" said Mr
Mann, "for only one road through each
county, which must pass through the
countyseat, thus giving two roads
leading out OF each countyseat. Bruins
wick's two roads lead, one to st
Mary's,--over the Jacksonville, line
and the other to Jesup."
Continuing. Mr.. Mann said, 'Glyn1
county's good road enthusiasts arr
particularly proud of the | ne to Jesup
Baxley, Hazlehurst, Lumber City, Nc
Rae, Eastman. Hawkinsville, Macor
and Atlanta. The new states system
also provides for another branch from
Lumber City, Dublin. Miiledgeville
and Athens. The state is to build a
great bridge at Lumber City. and with
the two lines-as above explained
will mean untold development of m
develoed lands in our southeastern
section.
'.The new State Highway Comm. 8
sion is right now apportioning the

The nj law allots the funds. not to

Senators Chamberlain, Lenroot and Nc
Cumber, Representative King Swope and
Speaker Gillett all Buzz-wagon Enthusi-
asts and Most of EN- Vastly Prefer Doing
Their Own "Chauffing."

Senator George Z. Chamberlain,
of Oregon, is one of the Senate s
leading motor addicts. He caught
"motoritis" in 1918, when, follow
ing his recovery from an appendi-
citis .operation. a group of admiring
constituents; presented him with his
first cara five-passenger Hudson
speedster.
He has accumulated a respectable
mileage during his two years be-
hind the wheel.
When making the presentation
his constituents also wanted to in
clude the services of chauffeur in
the gift. but Senator Chamberlain
resolutely refused, and in a few
weeks had gained sufficient knowl-
edge to enable him to secure a
drivers license most anywhere.
Lenroot Likes Small Ones.
Senator Irvine l. Lenroot, Wis
consin, is an ardent smaller car
man" In long career as an
automobile owner he has alternated
purchases of Dodge cars and Fords.
He is an all-the-year-round motor
list, and the presence of a cloud or
two in the sky never prevents him,
on leisure days from undertaking
little jaunts of 200 miles or so to
Gettysburg or New York in the
Dodge he now owns.
He disdains chauffeurs and does
mis- own driving and repairing, on
the road. He is one of the quickest
men in the Senate in such matters
as changing tires or putting in a
new spark plug. The treaty battle

MENT.

Q. My car jerks when the speed
drops to around five miles an hour.
There is also a lot of noise, %
much that ! can't tell whether 1t
is the engine at fault What do
you think Is the cause?
A. The usual cause Of this
trouble is missing at low speeds.
Carbon in the cylinders may be
the cause. Dirty plugs are another
possible cause, poor adjustment of
the spark plug gaps. valves not
seating properly or faulty carbure-
tion. The clutch Is also another
possibility. Try to run the cause
down or you will have worse trouble.
Q. Is kerosene good agent for
removing carbon from the cylinders /?
Is there any other liquid that Is
better?
A. Kerosene is not q very effec.
tive means OF removing carbon. II
may help IL the deposit is light.
There Is no really effective liquid
for removing a deposit OF carbon al
ready formed. Removal OF the cyl
inder head and scraping is the only
satisfactory method. II this is i'm
possible have the carbon burned out

Q. The frame of my car Is crack

crack. Is 1t safe to continue run

ton?
A. Scarcely. would have the
frame welded At the first opportun-
ity. Unless the crack In near the
arm supporting the engine, the
welding can be done without remov-
ing the engine and 1t will not be
very costly.
Q. Will 1t be possible to have

A. In all probability you can have
the larger valves Installed. The
seats will have to be countsrsunk

better ask the maker Of the engine

rebore the cylinders. Most engines
