the rivet set. Do not remove the
bolts that were used as temporary

by bolts have been filled with rivets.
This completes the foot brake, and
the same methods are used in refining
the internal or hand brake.
For Internal Brakes.
With the exception of the marking
of the holes the methods just de-
scribed are applicable to the internal
brake. 1t is not necessary to put the
shoe in place with the lining, as with
the external band. When the lining
has been cut, making the same allow
ance for the ends as was given in the
foot brake, mark and attach this end
with bolts in its proper place on the
shoe.
After stretching the band over the
shoe, mark and punch the holes tnat
are opposite the split in the band.
Do the same with the last two holes
and complete the temporary attach
ment. The riyeting follows the same

FOR GREATER CIVIC BEAUTY
hn Some Respects, 1t Must Be Con-

Behind Europe.

81 talked with a group of foreign
architects the other day, after they
had made a tour about this country"
said Elihu Root recently, in asking
funds for the completion of the Ca
thed1'al OF st. John the Divine. "They
said that our banking houses and our
railroad stations were far superior to
anything Of their kind in Europe" On
the other hand, Mr. Root pointed out,
America was "a country of small
churches" He wondered whether the
country, after her experiences in the
great war, had mo message to the
world that is fit to express
The public in general will do well
to ponder the full symbolism of beau
tiful banks and ugly churches. Our
handsome banks and terminals are, OF
course, an encouraging rather than
discoraging sign. Fifty years ago we
did not have even them. We are max
ing beginning with regard to fine
buildings outside Of business and in
dustry.. For instance we are creating
a number Of respectable and some
beautiful universities. The athletic
stadiums represent an artistic impulse
needing only proper direction. Our
bridges in many cases, have a sweep
and panoramic beauty. Despite the
multitude of cheap houses going up,
there is probably a more general In
terest In the beauty of homes and
home furnishings than there ever was.
Structural beauty in the United
States shows a few points of light in
half a continent Of rather dismal COM
monplaces. This may be natural. We
have built in a day-with haste and
carelessness. But haste and careless
ness must pass if the richest nation
in the world is to contribute more
than crops and machinery and money
to the life Of the world.-New York

Successful Parody

arouRd the dust guard and axle stub
should be removed and the parts
thoroughly cleaned with gasoline.
Now put the band in a wise and with,
q cold chisel and hammer chip off the
copper rivets that hold the lining to
the band, then drive out the old rivet
ends with a punch.
Allow for Overlapping.
It is necessary in cutting the new
lining to allow for overlapping for
the reason that the rivet holes at
this point are very close to the edge
and to leave the lining short here
would allow it to tear when the holes
are drilled. See Fig. for the
method of determining the correct
length. If the old lining can be re
moved intact it can be used as
guide in obtaining the new measure
ments. AS the average private garage
generally lacks the tools used in this
work at service stations simpler means
have to be employed.
In marking the lining for the holes
lay the wheel on the bench or floor
hub side down and put the lining and
band in place on the drum as shown
III Fig. 9. Wire the band so as to
hold it in place correctly. With
pencil or soapstone stick and using the
holes in the band for q template, mark
the lining. A harness leather punch
is used in making the holes.
Secure the lining to the band in its
proper position with the aid of few
small bolts and nuts. Next counter
sink the holes so the rivet heads will
be below the surface of the lining.
A countersinking tool made for this
purpose produces the most satisfac
tory results, but if one is not avail
able one can get good results from
a wood screw countersinking tool and
a brace If the latter is used it should
be sharp or the lining will tear.
Should Have Wise.
If you do not possess wise, place
the band on the bench in such. a way
as to prevent it from slipping away.
and with the countersink bit counter
sink each hole. Do not go too deep
on this operation, only enough to al
low the rivet headS~to be well below
the lining surface.
Unless there are two people, one
holding the band and rivet bar while
the other is using the hammer, it is
almost impossible to get along with
out a wise.
Fig. 4 shows way of using an
old bolt held in a wise with the head
of the bolt resting on the arm of the
wise to give solid foundation. Insert
a rivet through the lining and the
band and, with the whole in place, as
in Fig. 4, the head of the rivet rest
ing on the bolt, draw the rivet snug
with a rivet set, or a short piece OF
gas pipe. A few blows will be enough
to draw the rivet head and the lining
tight and in place. Avoid too much
pounding, as it will tend to draw the
rivet deeper in the mateVial and pos
sibly weaken to the point of breaking
through.
It may be found that rivets are too
long or too short; not more than
three-sixteenths of an inch should
protrude through the band. In r1vet-
Ing these ends use quick, light blows,

Scores of new houses are to be found
not only in Cleveland and in its
suburbs but in every important build
ing center that offend the simplest
architectural tenets.
Many of these hodge-podges doubt
less have their explanation in the de-
sire and necessity for economy, but
the fact remains that it costs less to
build neat little house that is archi-
tecturally attractive than to build the

London at last is to grant haven

nal brake, from which one and one
half inches should be deducted for
the length of the internal brake.
To Prevent Slipping.
To guard against any accidental
slipping after the rear wheels have
been lacked up, place the axle on good
strong horses. If the latter are not
available block the front wheels Sc
curely to prevent the car from roll
ing ahead or back off the jacks. Be
sure that you are thoroughly familiar
with the method to be followed in re
moving the wheels from your par
ticular make of car. If necessary, or
;at least doubtful, consult your book
: of Instructions. Follow the instruc-
lions infinitely.
A large clevis pin, on the back OIL
which is first a washer and then
cotter pin, holds the toggle connec-
lions of the brakes in place. The
toggles should be disconnected with
the brake shoes and the adjustment
screw removed from the guide that
acts upon the anchor bar. With the
removal of the coil springs that are
attached to the band the brake will be
ready to be taken off
Here a word of warning may be
necessary. Before removing, carefully
note which is the top and which is
the bottom of the assembly, and see
lust how the spring is inserted be-
tween the guide and the anchor bar;
the exercise of care at this point will
prevent trouble when the brake is

course as in the foot brake. Re
place the brakes, being careful to
secure every part in its proper posi-
ton. 1t will be necessary to make
complete readjustment. Before put
ting on the wheels, clean the bearings
and pack them in fresh grease. Much
brake trouble is caused by the leak
ing of grease into the brake mechan-
ism. In order to remedy this, for d
time at least, cut thick strip
tof felt long enough to be wrapped
around the axle bar three or four
times. The felt should be of sufi-
cient thickness to fit snugly between
the bar and the housing when wrapped
around the shaft.

commencement of the snow-eoyered

While the task Of refining brakes
is one primarily for an experienced re-

formed by those who enjoy doing their

First, purchase the new lining in

lengths after the wheels and brakes
have been removed.
The correct length of material is
obtained by laying a tape measure
around the outside of the external

about one-half inch overlapping at the
