ANOTHER STUNT OF A FORD

Mort Ullery of Brook was in town Tuesday afternoon, cutting up capers - ' with his Ford. He attempted tp stop at the curb in front of Clarke’s, jewelry store, but the pesky brakes stuck and he could not -slow down, with the result that the car ran up on the sidewalk and would have crashed into the front of Eger's hardware store had not the driver given- the steering wheel a sharp turn th the left, and it went gliding down the walk for nearly 100 feet before it came to a halt. Fortunately no one happened to be on the walk in its path, and no damage was done.
