V Thursday* January 26, 1956 """ THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Page Nlni W. T, ipson raffic Cullom Lake Wews By Eve Levesque CHARLES F. CARPEN.TIER Sccrctary of State An important (unction of driving ^.during the winter season is bringing a vehicle to a stop in as short a distance as possible. It has been established that braking distances can be measurably reduced by pumping brakes so they are alternately applied and completely released. Also, by pumping the brakes the driver is aided in retaining steering control of the vehicle. A survey revealed that few motorists are aware off this and do not realize that a sliding or ^Bpinning tvheel provides no direc- ^tional control whatsoever. When driving on glare ice the motorist should make a series of very rapid brake applications to bring ' the vehicle to a stop. The brakes should be fully applied for an instant and then completely released for an instant. This should be done as rapidly as possible. wmm MOT THIS! The technique on pa somewhat different as the motorist can usually feel the point at which the brakes begin to lock and the wheels start sliding. In such situations the driver should apply the brakes gently until the wheels begin to slide and then the brakes should be released slightly. However, if results cannot be gained by this method, the motorist should Btart the pumping technique immediately. !

The young lady will be in a cast for about six weeks. Imagine trying to keep , a youngster this age quiet long enough for the bones to knit. For her mom's sake and her own, we hope little Donna will have a speedy recovery. New Business A new industry has sprung up in our village. Fred Matthesius has a force of trained and capable men consisting of Bill Brennan, Dave Hansen and Len Mager to assist anyone in getting water or taking care of any type of plumbing difficulty.

Frank Burger, second place to Gordon Rehberg and the third place winner was James Brewer, all of Lakeland Park. Ronnie ^Creutz, by winning the consolation prize, upheld the "honors for our village. Ken Ebey set some kind of a record for "catching" a" good sized pike, already frozen! Seems as though he went home for lunch, and while he was gone, his line was fixed with a nice catch. Some fellows - will stoop to any depth for a gag. The, Sportsmen's club announce the next ice fishing contest will be held July 4, when a»larger cj-owd is expected!

You see, he knows what he has down under that beautiful hood--a great, powerful V-8 engine that's pulsing with life--and he's simply itching to give it the word! c' I&it he is a sane and sensible driver, who stays within the regulations ^and observes the laws of common sense--and he knows he can t unleash that engine on a normal stretch of highway. So he's looking for a big, long, steep hill. Maybe he can get the throttle down there for a short thrust--just to see what it's like! Well, maybe so--but even on a mountain, .von't use full throttle for long. For this car he powered far beyond all normal requirements. Why, you might ask, is this so? Well, in the judgment of Cadillac engineers, it's done for a number of reasons. First of these is safety. A great reserve of power for the quick escape from an emergency is of the essence of highway safety. There is simply no substitute for it. Then there's economy. A big, powerful engine that loafs at normal speeds permits the use of an axle ratio that makes for gasoline economy. There is long life, too--for the absence of strain adds vears and years to the life of any mechanism. And finally, there is the great riding and driving luxury that comes with extra power ... the whisper-silent engine, the instant response to the throttle, the sense of safety and security. Of course, luxuriant power is but one of the basic superiorities in the 1956 Cadillac. For here is the finest of all Cadillacs--more unmistakably than ever, the "car of cars." Why not come in soon and see for yotfrself? We will be most happy to supervise a personal demonstration on the highway. The car is waiting for you--and any time you find the time would be a good time for a date! OVERTON CADILLAC PONTIAC C 400 FRONT STREET McHENRY. ILL. mom 17 40
