Almost all birds fight furiously in

The various methods of offense

claws Starlings fight in exactly sim

Some birds have spurs on their
wings. The spur-winged goose, which
is a small, lOng-legged bird and rath-

traordinary wing power. One of these
geese went for a gardener who had
gone into its Enclosure in the zoe"

laid him up for a week. The crested
screamer has actually double spurs on
its wings and is very awkward Gus

What Is Motor Rraking?

If driving with the motor for power
and brakes should do nothing more
than make motoring a greater pleasure
for you 1t surely is worth while.
But, incidental to the increased com :
fort, you will find that your tires wear
longer. And o will find that less
attention Is needed in keeping the
brakes In order for emergency use.
The constant setting Of brakes will
in time ruin the most scientific and
well manufactured brake Innings. Even
metal would wear away under the pres
sure some drivers force their brakes to
stand, And, in addition. the frequent
tanning on OF brakes places an unus-
ual strain on the entire brake mechan-
ism,
Besides the added pleasure and the
saving in tires and repairs this sane
method Of driving will afford you, it
VIII mean greater safety for pedes-
TRANS and other motorists.
No n has a. better right than the
man on the street to know what the
automobile driver is going to do. It is
not beyond reason for the pedestrian
to expect the motorist to show some
signs of slowing down when approach
ing a corner.
Brakes are important. There is no
question about that, But because they
are efficient and convenient they are
used altogether too much, The good
driver win keep his car under control
at all times because he realizes that
it is his duty to himself as well as to
the other fellow.
