Be sure the jack is quite secure be-
fore taking off the rim or wheel.
Proper fabrication of the brake con-
troll mechanism of motorcar Is most
essential.
Sheet metal parts, which are al
lowed to rub as result Of loose
bolts, develop bad squeaks.
It is particularly important that the
motor bolts be tightened and that the
body bolts be drawn down snugly.
Two good rules to follow with re-
gard to spare tires are to keep them
covered SO that they win not be sub
jected to sunlight, and to use each
spare for day or two each month.
It is of particular Importance that a
few drops of oil be placed on all
