Little Ones Make Less Noise Next time your neighbor’s power lawn mower threatens to give him, or you, a case of “power mower nerves,” you might recommend the latest type of “swinging-four” safety-blades. Lawn mower manufacturers have long searched for a quieter gasoline mower. Now they’ve proven that four small blades, mounted on a bal anced disk, will do a thorough cutting job while engines run at a slower, quieter speed. With tne “swinging-four” blades above, the Huffy "Silencer” Mower is only about half as noisy as most gasoline mowers and the electric Huffys make far less noise than a hand mower. The young lady above is demonstrating the increased safety that is built into this cutting mechanism. Mounted on pivots, centrifugal force swings the small blades out to cut grass, weeds, brush and. small twigs, but they bounce back when they hit a rock or other heavy obstacle instead of breaking or throwing the object. — EWING NEWS Mr. and Mrs. David Cloyd, who had Ijeen guests at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ir win Cloyd, left Tuesday, June 29, for their home in California.
