as weather for the past few days.

ty. Monday was warmer than the

tinued. At time of this writing (Mon

What came near being a disas-
terous fire last week at the home of
Emmett Roach was barely averted.
Mr. Roach has recently moved to the
Will Sneathen farm northwest of
town which he purchased some time
ago. He and his wife had come to
town after dinner leaving only a lit-
tle fire in the cook stove which had
been closed up before leaving the
house. Some hours afterwards neigh-
bors seeing a great smoke issuing
from the house went to investigate.
The inside of the kitchen was in
flames and had it not been for the
timely assistance of the neighbors
the entire structure would have been
consumed before Mr. and Mrs. Roach
came home. Unless the fire started
from a defective flue it is not known
how it originated. The owners are
thankful indeed that it was no worse.
ONE of the first things yon
wit notice when you drive
the new Ford is the quick,
effective, silent action of its
six-brake system.
This system gives you the
highest degree of safety and
reliability because the four-
wheel service brakes and the
separate emergency or park-
ing brakes are all of the
mechanical, internal ex-
panding type, with braking
snrfaees fully enclosed for
protection against mud,
water, sand, etc.
The many advantages of
this type of braking system
have long been recognized.
They are brought to you in
the new Ford throdgh a
aeries of mechanical im-
provements embodying
much that is new in design
and manufacture. A particu-
larly unique feature is the
simple way by which a spe-
cial drum has been con-
structed to permit the use of
two sets of internal brakes
on the rear wheels.
this construction, the entire
surface of the shoe is
brought in steady, uniform
contact with the drum the
instant you press your foot
on the brake pedal. This
prevents screeching and
howling and makes the Ford
brakes unusually silent in
operation.
Another feature of the
Ford brakes is the ease of
adjustment.
The four-wheel brakes
are adjusted by turning a
screw conveniently located
on the outside of each brake
plate. This screw is so
notched that all four brakes
can be set alike simply by
listening to the “clicks.”
The emergency or park-
ing brakes on the new Ford
require little attention. How-
ever, should they need ad-
justment at any time, con-
sult your Ford dealer for
prompt? courteous, and eco-
nomical service. He works
under close factory super-
vision and he has been spe-
cially trained and equipped
to help you get the greatest
possible use from your car
over the -longest period
of time at « minh
