eral from Berea, and other

afterward there were five happy
students at the examination

The Belding banner-news. (Belding, Mich.) 1918-1973, 1920-07-28

of the irons against the tubes is suf-
ficient cause for those blowouts?
A. In putting on tires great care
should be taken in handling the irons
Very often the inner tube is bruised
by the iron, in which case the owner
realizes this when he tries to initiate
the tire. 1t often happens, however
that the inner tube is bruised by the
tire iron to such an extent that it
will last probably few hours and
possibly several days. 1t is an easy
matter to keep the irons away from
the. tube if one watches carefully the
position of the irons. When putting
tire and tube on the rim it is adj
visable to slightly initiate the tube so
That it will not be so easily caught
by the tire irons.

"a. Would advise YOU to lack up
both rear wheels and try turning
them by hand. II is probable that the
brakes drag-most likely the inter-
T, nal expansion brakes, due to a weak

tract the shoes of the brake when re-

"A. Would arvise application of

There are also several good wax
preparations which can be purchased
at any accessory supply store. If
the application of any of the above
does not bring back the luster would
suggest that you consult good body
