WELL WORTH REMEMBERING
Car Invariably Rides Better Over
Rough Roads When Engine 10
Constantly Pulling 1t.

A car will invariably ride better over
a rough road II the engine is constant
ly pulling It. Most drivers speed up
and then apply the brakes when going
over the rough places. The car al
ways bounces more under this plan.
and though ths driver makes time be-
tween rough spots he loses 1t as soon
as he has to apply his brakes. With the
car running along slowly--in high
the rear wheels seem TO cling to the
road better. The wheels are not SO
free to be tuggled around by ths
bumps.

REPORT
"Beds Of Torture" Are Found
by Prince Georges Grand
Jury Committee.

UPPER MARLBORO. Nd. April
lev. e. VIolland, c. L. Turner
and r. L. Smallwood, comprising
the committee Of the grand jury
for the April term Of the circuit
court for Prince Georges county,
appointed to inspect the county jail
and courthouse here, in its report
just submitted to the court states
''the sanitary condition OF the jail
is fair"
The building was found without
heat. The committee recommended
purchase Of new furnace or over
hauling Of the present one which
lis reported in unsatisfactory con-
dition.
"The beds were found in a rather
like beds Of torture rather than
beds for any human being to lie
on" the report continues.
Owing to the manner in which
they are constructed and the shall
low mattresses used, the beds could
not possibly be comfortable, the re-
port points out. The committee
recommends purchase of canvas
cots, such as are used by the army,
expressing the belief that they
would be more comfortable, sani-
tary and economical.
AS the fence around the Jail has
almost "rotted down" the commit
tee recommends the building OF a
new one. Repair of the roof over
the entrance to the furnace room
OF the Jail also is recommended,
It being stated that the rain which
gets into the basement as the re-
suit Of its condition causes the
whole structure to be damp.
