FEW CAR OWNERS
KNOW STEERING
Reasons Why Auto Is Hari
or Easy to Handle Are
|       Given by Prof. Greer.
'   (By  ERWIN GREER.   President Greer Col-
I      lelte of Automotive Engineering, Chicago.)
!     The average motorcar owner prob-
I ably will be surprised to be told that
, he  doesn't   know   what   reallj   gw>d
| steering means.   The reason Is that so
| many factors contribute to helping or
; hindering lb«,S«8y JS'.ty.acs ?| tf»e
1 moderfe £ar that BStffiy of-tiiem are
! entirely overlooked by most owners,
and the result Is that they consider
satisfactory steering'what Is in reality
very far from perfect..-1
To begin with, lt Is Important that
the front wheels shall be properly
aligned if the car is to steer with
maximum ease. Now all wheels are
cambered and toed-Iri to a certain extent. The amount varies with different cars, but the owner should take
pains at least twice a season to see
that his wheels are properly aligned.
Improper Alignment.
Any time that the car is involved in
a collision of any kind, even iV it is
with the curb, the wheel alignment
should be checked up. Improper alignment results not only in hindering, the
.steering of the car, but Jn excessive
tire wear.
If the alignment of the wheels is
found to be incorrect, it may be
altered by manipulation of the tie rod.
This latter is the rod which runs from
one steering knuckle to the other, and
which has a movable portion at either
end. Hard steering Is often caused
by misalignment of the front wheels
through an error In the toe-in.
In most steering systems the slack
,which  develops  may  be  taken  up  in
two or three different rhices.   The car
owner should find ouf, to begin with.
-where the wear is greatest,  whether
j In  the  gears  at   the  bottom  of  the

Story    Crammed   Witli   Adventurous
Action to Be Here Saturday •
and Sunday.
"The Light of Wsterji Stars," the
latest o'f thie Zane Grey novels to be
transferred to the Careen, is a roaring
western romance of the picturesque
Arizona border, packed with, vital
drama, heroic deeds and dark villainies—a leaf torn from the gripping
story df thie west in which is pictured
the last desperate stand of banded
outlawry on the remaining vestige of
frontier Am'erica.
The fierce action, which includes
the driving off of cattje herds and
the looting oif a peaceful town by marauders, centers about four main
characters.
The piqtu're, true to the locale, was
filmed, in the magnificent stretch of
mountain and desert land of southern
Arizona through whioh winds the
historic Apache trail. Many of the
scenes were photographed against the
remarkable scenic background o*fi the
Superstition Mountains.
With a tremendously absorbing plot,
an    outdoor   setting    of    marvelous
beauty, expert direction and a sterling   cast,   this . photoplay   represents
the concentrated essence of fascinat-<
I ing and colorful  film entertainment-
j And furthermore, the fact that it viv>
l idly recreates another stirring chapter in the winning of the west, gives
it    an    historical    significance    that
raises it ahove the average so-called
western.

EXTEND TOME FOR
PAYMENT QF DOG TAX
_- Washtenaw county, dog owners have
until March 1 to pay their 1926 li-
n-insefees and-still escape the $2.00
"penalty : the"new. state law places on
delinquent taxes/
Although the statute provides that
persons applying ifor their dog licenses after January 10 will be assessed a. $2- extra tax,-the board of
supervisors recently took action to
give Washtenaw dog owners more
time. They voted to extend this limit
to March 1,
This' was done, members of the
board said, to give rural residents
am|ple time in which to npply 'for
their dog licenses, the theory being
that not imany were acquainted with
the provisions of the new dog Jaw.
