- Brakes are the most important
actor ot safety, sayj Mike Ptnelt,
tne brake specialist.
. Under - th (learning hood of
your modern motor ear stands a
Klant power plant Not a elant
(In sixe but a super-giant In ter
I rifle driving power. A motor that
can horl your car at 70, SO, even
SO miles an hour. Breath-taking
f spee for an age that demands
tit. Dangerous power unless it Is
kept tinder absolute control un
less yon can bring that car to a
standstill on an Instant's warning.
"Here is startling, tact! it
takes more power to stop your
car from a given rate et speed
than is required to attain that
speed. '
. "To reach a speed of 60 miles an
lour In an average car weighing
pounds takes about 21.8 sec
onds and a distance of 795 feet.
It requires 24.4 horsepower.
"With good brakes that car can
be stopped in 3.4 J seconds and
125 feet.-But It" requires 154.5
horsepower to do it! :
"And what "stops jour earT It is
the fraction of the brake lining
gainst a rapidly revolving steel
drnn. This friction generates tre
mendous heat consequently the
quality of the brake lining used
on that brake iaof utmost im
portance. "Not only that, but the condition
and position of the brake shoes,
linkage, etc., of that brake must
bei perfect to withstand' the strata
f tl 14.5 Jiersepower ad, jwrform
heir work properly.
"Proper InsUllation of the lin
ing and the correct conditioning
of the many parts of the brake
mechanism are as highly special
ised operations as the manufac
ture of the lining itself and just
as important to brake safety."
Therefore, adrlses Mike Panek,
bo sure that the mechanic who
services the brakes on your car
knows brakes.

STOP BIKE BIBB
Harry W. Scott, local cycle
man, Is expecting soon to have
in stock soms home exercisers in
the form of a bicycle stand that
will allow one to ride his bi
cycle at home and get the same
effect as though he were riding
along the road.
The stand is easily adjusted to
any bicycle and has an effort con
trol which makes pumping harder
or easier as desired. It has a sig
nal bell that rings each half mile
of peddling.
"Bicycle riding has long been
recognized by physical training
experts as the ideal kind of exer
cise because it strengthens the
muscles of the legs and lower
abdomen, increases the lung ex
pansion, keeps the body trim and
slim by reducing excess weight,
and does not over-develop the
arms and shoulders. Pedal a mile
or two each day and you have
the up-to-date way to keep well
and healthy," says Mr. Scott.
Enamel Used In
Refinishing Car
i More Than Ever
More car owners than ever be
fore are turning to enamel when
refinishing their old cars, declared
Elmer Lewis, well known local
automobile painter yesterday.
The explanation, he believes, lies
simply in the lower cost of an
enamel finish.
"Enamel," he says "can be
rubbed down and finished so that
it will present an appearance as
smooth as lacquer. " We've enam
eled & good many Salem cars in
the past month."

Mil BEIT FAILS
Police of Charlestown, Mass.,
hare devised a clever trap to help
them capture sntomoblla speed
ers or fugitives fleeing In motor
cars. A vide belt, studded with
nails. Is thrown across a highway
down which the speeder or fugi
tive mast pass.
This had always proved suffi
cient to stop the - most elusive
law violator until they tried to
capture Peter J. Garvin, 17-year-old
Charlestown youth, who is
charged by police with having op
erated a car stolen from Francis
S. Snow, of West Newton.
When police saw this car be
ing driven at high speed over the
Charlestown loop, they set out in
pursuit and had the nail-studded
belt flung across the highway in
front of it.
To their surprise, the car
passed over the belt without stop
ing and kept on goin, without
diminishing its speed. Block after
block the chase continued until
the fugitive finally failed to make
a corner at high speed and
crashed so that ha was pinned
against the wheel. A companion
riding with him is reported to
have escaped.
When Charlestown police ex
amined the wrecked ear to find
out why it had not been stopped
by the nail-studded belt, they dis
covered according to Boston
news dispatches, that the ear was
equipped with General Streamline
Jumbo Ittfis Inflated ab unusually
low air pressure. Police declared
that high pressure tires would
undoubtedly have been ruined by
the nail-studded belt, but because
of the low air pressure in the
Jumbo tires, they gave Instead of
puncturing when passing over the
belt.
TIME TO THINK OF
WINTER SAYS J.ILES
"It's not a bit too early for
the average motorist to put anti
freeze in his radiator now, before
freezing weather starts," declared
R. W. Niles. of Day and Niles,
Inc., when interviewed yesterday.
Niles believes that thorough
preparation for winter driving is
one means of cutting down oper
ating costs. "Such things as new
batteries, new spark- plugs, flash
ing transmission, 'and refilling
with winter grade lubricants, pre-;
vent losses in mileage and in mo
tor efficiency during cold weath-j
or TSUIab AM
In connection with antl-freeze.
Mr Kilo, railed attention to the
importance of proper service be-1
fore the solution is put into tne
radiator-. A thoroneh flushing
