Early Meeting Houses.

The earliest New England meeting
houses were built in valleys and
meadow lands, much the same as the
first Old First church in Springfield.
for here 1t was that the homes were
located. For time it was required
sthat all homes should be built within
half mile of the meeting house, for
the most part to afford protection to
bthe settlers. since the building did
sduty as a fort as well as house Of
I worship.
r As the population increased and new
SETTLERS came into the villages the half
mile radius became too crowded to
permit this to continue. 1t was neces-
9sary to go some distance to pasture
the cattle and for this reason the law
was cancelled.

TOURIST COLLECTS
TIPS To HELP
WEEK-ENDERs

Week-enders and campers who do
not care to spend their vacations
alongside some road underneath their
automobiles, may find considerable
help in the ADVICE of A L. Westgard,
field representative OF the American
Automobile association. Having gone
through various experiences and me-.
all sorts Of difficulties on 1.-THE road
he has compiled the lessons he has
learned for guninitiated tourits. 80
Before starting on a motor camp
ing tour says Wesstgard,' look over
the tool box. !" His list includes va
rious kinds of wrenches, pliers, a
hammer, screw drivers, files, wire,
nuts. bolts. cotter pins, tire plugs
rim Jugs. talcum powder. tape, an ex-
ira valve and spring, a grease gun
and an. extra spring clip and bolts.
Besides these extras there should
be spare tire or two, some extra
tubes carefully packed in burlap to
keep from chatting, puncture and
blowout patches and inner boots;
tire pump, jack and small plank to |
DC used as a base on soft ground:
Weed chains and few extra cross
Grains; towering rope; a collapsible |
canvas bucket and a fvegallon wa
ter bag; an upper and lower rubber
hose connection for the radiator, with
clamps; a box of cup grease and a
can OF lubricatlng oil.
With the car in good working or
DER, all parts fabricated and the bat
terry fully charged, everything is
ready for the trip. For the time the
tourist is driving, Westgard has com
piled the following tips that lend to-
ward a pleasant tour:
Don't overload the car. Distribute
the weight to equalize the strain on
the springs. Use soft water for RAJ
ciator. Watch the brakes, making
prompt adjustments to take up wear
and renew brake lining when worn.
DO not strain the motor unnecessar-
lily. Watch the alignment of the
wheels. Keep the battery charged
Repair small tire cuts promptly.
Sand blisters and mud boils are due
to underinfation. Do not drive in
ruts; it wears out the sides OF the
castings. Do no. let oil or grease re-
main on the castings. Do not adjust
chains too tightly; allow them to
creep. Finally, keep tires well in
nated and make tests every morning. |
When stuck in a mudhole or on a
sandy stretch, do not speed up the
engine and Jump the clutch. This
viii only cause the wheels to spin
and the car to sink deeper. Open the
throttle only far enough to keep the
engigne from stalling and engage the /
clutch slowly. The chances are this
method will procure traction.
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1920-06-15
KEEP SPRING CLIPS TIGHT

II any OF your springs give way at
the center bolt hotel, 1t is because the
spring clips were not tight. Dealers
and manufacturers will not replace
springs broken at this point for this
reason. The safe way is to draw the
nuts up as close as possible with a
wrench big enough to make certain
of their being tight. The clips should
be watched and frightened often.

GETTING OUT OF A RUT

When rear wheel is in a mud
hole so that it spins, apply the
emergency brake gently. This will
give enough resistance to the spin
ming wheel to let the other wheel pull
the car out. The decrease in engine
speed because of the brake pressure
can be made up by opening the throt-
tie little.

TO REPAIR RADIATOR

In case of leak in a honeycomb
radiator, get bolt longer than the
depth OF the radiator and fine enough
to go through the hole in the honey
comb. Put 1t where the leak is, place
a rubber washer on each end and a
steel washes ever these and tighten
the nut on the bolt tight enough to
stop the leak.
