"The county is to be congratulated
on the fine culverts being placed on
some of the county - roads, These
structures add a great deal•to the

THE greatest safety feature ,
mobile—the braking system —has been
developed on the Ford car to a degree that
insures absolute driving confidence. Being
fully enclosed, the internal expanding
brakes on all four wheels are free from any
danger of impaired performance from mud,
sand, road dirt, grease or other foreign
matter entering the mechanism or between
the bands and drum
Tlle four wheel system is operated by a foot
pedal, while the emergency or parking
system of two brakes, one on each rear wheel,
is distinct and separate, operated by a hand
lever. This added security is made possible
through the unique design of the Ford steel
spoke wheels to which drums are fitted to
accommodate two sets of internal brakes on
the rear wheels.
The smooth, Oven braking of the Ford car
yields more advantages than maximum
safety at all times, since it makes tires last
longer and addsimmeasurably to riding ease
and driving comfort
