COMMENDS THE
COMMUNITY FAIR

Mr.. Joe L. Holbrook, Dresden En-
terprise, Dresden, Tenn, Dear Mr..
Editor:-I observed with great in
terest in last weeks Enterprise an
account Of Community Day to
be put on by the progressive citi-
zens of that famous little town of
Gleason. Such community spirit
as manifested by those business-like
men will sure bring results. It
shows that the business interests of
the town have the surrounding
country's interest at heart. They
have their interest to the extent that
they are providing special amuse-
ments, as well as educational feat
ures. In no way could the Com
mercial Club have shown the real
spirit that should exist between
countey and town than by making a
Community Fair out of the occa-
sion. The premium list offered is
very generous one and the far
mers residing is that community
should feel proud of their mer-
chants and have a good attitude to-
wards them.
Also, too much commentator
cannot be given tt the manner in
which the occasion was presented
to the people through your col
umns, the catchy adds land good
wishes expressed by those good
busfsess men who supplied yeu
with ads. I congratulate the En-
terprise.
May many Of the communities in
your county and others take on
this enthusiasm and see the real
need for just such days, with best
wishes to you and Weakley county,
/ am,
A DISTANT READER.

ANNOUNCEMENTS


Emergency Fire Extinguisher
The usually recommend substance
for putting out gasoline fires is
sand, which certainly has many ad-
vantages, Equally efficacious for
the purpose is sawdust, particularly
II it has been soaked in. carbonate
Of soda. The sawdust floating on
the liquid prevents air from reach
ing the fire, and also 9 certain
amount Of carbon dioxide is gener-
ated. While sawdust is nominally
eOmbustible, in reality it turns
slowly at best and actually dis
coursges the rapid spread Of flame.
Cracks in Tires are Sign of Old Age
When numerous small Sits and
cracks appear in tire, it's a sign of
the approach Of old age. A strange
thing about auto castings in this re-
spect IS their similarity to men and
women. While they don't get gray
haired, they do become wrinkled
and cracked, often chalky white in
appearance.
The fabric in an old tire gradu-
ally becomes brittle and hard so
that it breaks easily. Like the
bones OF old people, it is diff cult
to knit. The tire surgeons work
increases in difficulty with the
age of the casing.
Like individuals, those whose
strength IS conserved do not so
readily show age. The best way to
preserve their usefulness is to take
care of them.
To hide the effects of age and
wear, motorists frequently "doll
them up" painting the side walls
and washing with cleaning solu-
tons. Others pay no attention to
their appearance and permit them
to go shabby.
Ordinarily the small cracks ap-
pearing on the side walls do little
harm, unless they penetrate through
the rubber covering to the fabric
underneath. 1t is well worth the
motorists attention to have his
castings regularly inspected.
Tires age fastest when lying
around. They are kept in best con-
dit'on in actual service. If it is
necessary to store them, they will
retain their life longest in an even
and moderate temperature and
light.

How to Steer an Automobile

How to Steer an Automobile
Steering an automobile is not q
difficult task" says a local dealer
Perfection comes from conf,
dence, not from knowledge. Within
a few minutes the novice will have
learned just how much of a move
ment on the steering wheel is re-
quired to turn in the same direc-
ton, and the distractions.
Turning the steering wheel to
the left VII cause the front wheels
to turn in the same direction, and
the car will travel to the left. Turn
ing the steering wheel to the right
causes the car to travel to the right.
This applies when backing up as
we'll as when going forward.
Proceed cautiously, preferably
road that is little frequented, and
vide enough to give plenty Of room
for your first attempt at automO-
bile driving.
Don't forget that after turning
a corner the front wheels should be
Strengthened" up; otherwise you
will run off the road.
always bring your car to a
dead" stop before attempting to
back up. Failure to observe this
may result in serious damage to the
transmission and cause unnecessary
expense. With the car at rest and
the gear-shifting lever in neutral,
release the clutch by depressing the
clutch pedal and move the gear
sitting lever forward into the left
fordward position. Now let the
clutch pedal come back easily and
at the same time accelerate the
motor speed by opening the throt-
tie slightly.

tum, drawing into itself all the i'm
purities in the fuel, so that the de-
gree of discoloration found in the
acid will be measure of the purity
Of the gasoline. A useful test to
determine whether gasoline has cor
rosive properties is to drop in the
fluid a bit of copper. If the cop
per turns blue or green the assump-
ton is that the gasoline contains
corrosive elements.

Choke Return Spring

When the outside temperature

carburetor choke is useful only i'll

used on pedals or brake rods is at

dash or cowl frame during hot
weather this control will return to
normal position automatically. This
not only saves gas but tends to re-
duce the formation of carbon de-

How to Preserve Tires in the Winter
Motorists are often concerned
with how to prevent serious deteri-
grafton of their tires during the
winter months when cars are stored.
The tire surgeon has solved this
problem for them.
When storing the car at the ga
rage have a tire surgeon store the
tires at his shop. He first careful
ly inspect and repair them. He will
not only thoroughly clean them, but
will give them coat of soapstone
or preservative of some kind.
Not only will proper care of your
tires during the long winter months
save you money in lessening the
depreciation, but it will keep them
in first-class condition ready for
the opening of the motoring season.

EX-KAISER ALWAYS
A FOOL, MEMOIRS
OF BISMARCK SAY
Penchant for Inscribing Mar
ginal Notes Dates Back
To 1887.

Stuttgart, Jan. 1S.-Former En-
peror Williams penchant for in
scribing marginal notes on docu=
ments passing through his hands
dates back to 1887, when he was
still Prince Wilhelm This practice
apparently nettled Bismarck, who re-
quested the heir to the throne to
dispense with such effusions, which
the prince promised to do.
This is one Of the incidents
brought out in the third volume of
the Iron Chancellor's' memoirs,
which were the subject Of injunc-
ton proceedings before the court.
The bench announced that decision
on the former emperor's petition
for suppression of the volume would
be made known January "A.
Total of Six Letters.
The volume contains total of
six letters written by the former
emperor at variou. stages of his
career. One of the first three, writ
ten while he was prince, refers to
a proclamation he proposed to ad-
dress to the rulers of confedcrated
states in view of the mot improb-
able eventuality of the early deaths
of my grandfather and father
In reply Bismarck told the prince
that the best thing he could do was
to consign the proclamation to the
fire as quickly as possible. ~
One letter from Emperor Fred !
erick III, in which he expressed
regret over the crown princes edu-
cation and general nature, is in
cluded in the volume, it is said, for
the purpose of proving that the
father was out of patience with his
sons mental development and gen
eral temperament.
