surrounded the city came the stately
formation of Army bombers. They few

not a plane wavered in its course

bv the average driver as affectlng
the performance of his car.
Recent investigators have Iouho
motorists prone to forget that IN
creasing weight places greater de-
mands upon the cars brakes. Most
drivers will consider the added load
which the engine must pull when
climbing a hill, but will overlook ali
most entirely the increased weight
which the braking system must ham
die on the downgrade.
Passengers sometimes can over
tax the braking system. More
frequently, however, they over-tax
the drivers mental capacity.
This is demonstrated by the fact
that when the car 10 fully loaded,
the average driver does not begin
stopping any sooner than he would
il he were alone. He seems to
drive under the assumption that il
IL is necessary to make a quick stop
his brakes will be equal to the
occasion, never taking into account
the added burden upon those brakes
and the tendency to skid.
Brakes and Wheels
With the ear we'll loaded, 1t
naturally win acquire greater
momentum which. IL conditions are
unfavorahle for traction, will re-
suit in the car sliding a greater
distance should the wheels lock
when the brakes are applied.
There is reason to believe that
the automobile itself is quite senSi-
tive to its passenger load. Aside
from the effect on tires and decel-
GRAFTON, there is the matter of in
fIuence on the adjustment of the
spring control devices. One mistake
that the average niotorist makes is
to have these devices adjusted
while he is alone at the wheel. He
does not stop to reason that when
passengers are in the car with him
the preloading Of the springs may
be too much in view Of the addi-
tional loading caused by the extra
weight OF the passengers. With
many of these shock ahsorbers and
spring control devices, adjustments
are rather delicate IL best results
are desired. and it is obvious that
il the machine is adjusted for a
certain load, and that load is
changed. riding qualities may be
rather seriously affected.
Since the shock absorbing fea.
lures Of the springs themselves
largely are concentrated at the
spring ends, It also is plain that il
a car has weakened springs. and
the loading II excessive, & good
ride cannot be obtained. This does
not mean necessarily, however, that
the normal number of passengers
no longer can be carried without
risk Of a poor ride. for there are
other ways to compensate for the
flattening out of the springs.
One of these Is to lower the
pressure in the tires; another is to
adjust the spring control devices
for less preloading; and a third is
to maintain the springs in more
suitable condition.
This latter suggestion may mean
keeping the spring leaves clean,
but free from lubricants. Friction
between the spring leaves fire.
quently must be increased to com-
pensate for normal loss In the
cushioning qualities Of the springs,
AS one observer puts it, a car
is handicapped or helped by the
people who ride in it.

WONDERFUL CONCERT PRESENT
ED BY THE ASSOCIATED

One of the most pleasing concerts
ever given in this city was the offer
ing of the Associated Range Choir
uses at the Washington Auditorium

each and every number was applaud
ed with vim.
Prof. Otto F. Schacht, the director.
had arranged a very pleasing pro-
gram of selections, the latter part OF
which was composed OF music ap-
propriate to the Lenten season. The
chorus was composed of members Of
the Virginia, Eveleth and Ely Choir
uses which had their birth under
Prof. Schacht's direction. It COM
prised sixty voices and each voice
blended and phrased the music most
artistically.
The solo part of the program was
particularly well enjoyed. Mdme.
Sames- Schacht, soprano of note
who has appeared in many Of the
larger eastern cities in concert and
opera work, sang several solos In
which she was accompanied by Mrs.
H. N. Sutherland at the piano. Mrs
Sutherland also accompanied the
chorus. Mdme Schacht proved her
worth as soloist and Mrs. Suther-
land rendered her accomplishments In
her usual artistic manner
The choruSeS are rehearsing "The
Holy City" to be given sometime near
Easter. The chorus will also give
another concert in Duluth in which
they will be joined by the Duluth
choruses organized by Prof. Schacht
