Experienced motorists have learned that
1t Is well, when starting on tour to be

the beginner invariably overlooks, unless
guided by the wiser heads of those who
have been through It and know.
Most intending motorists are well aware
that the car itself, even when new and
fully equipped" by the manufacturer,
does not represent the whole of the first
investment needed for satisfactory motor
ing. There is clothing to be considered.
of course. Likewise for the man who
stables his own car there are supplies such
as oil, grease. carbide, waste, polishing
compound, oil soap and sponges, all OF
which 1t Is true may be purchased in drib-
let's, but which are much cheaper If the
seasons supply is bought at once. And
wherever the car is stored there are in
evitably such things as extra inner tubes,
extra spark plugs, possible spare shoe
and various minor items which may be
omitted from the usual kit furnished with
the car, but which the experienced motor
ist learns 1t is usually safest to carry.
Still, further, there is a multitude Of

box spanners which twlrl a nut on or off

All of these things are of decided advant-
age, but it is rather with the absolute
necessities that we will deal
AS a mere matter of common sense, it is
best to limit ones first purchase of ac-
cessories to the things actually known to
be needed. AS the owner gets acquainted
with his car he will then be able to choose
judiciously from the long list OF "luxuries"

BRAKES ARE APPLIED UNw1sELY
Consequences of ThOughtless Action
to which Drivers Are Prone.

COnsequences of ThOughtIess Action
to Which Drivers Are Prone.
Frequently in cases where the driver OF
an automobile has been hailed into court
for fast or reckless driving, he has ad-
vanced the excuse that there was no dan
ger for anybody, because his car was un-
der such control that he could stop it in
few feet by extreme use Of the brakes.
That is one of the worst fallacies that
could by mischance enter the head of any
driver, for such use of the brake may lock
the wheels and then under certain condl-
tions of the road surface, especially in
the winter time, when frost and thaw get
in their work. the car becomes utterly
unmanageable and skds in most unruly
fashion.
There was the case, for example, of an
expert driver at Highgate, England, who
applied the brakes quickly to prevent run
ming down a crossing sweeper. It was a
siX-cylnder car which he was testing for
the makers. The road had been wet with
thaw during the day and had frozen solidly
during the evening, with the result that
when the driver applied the brake TO the
fullest extent the steel-studded tires on
the driving wheels slipped OveE the frozen
surface of the road like skates. The rear
Of the car spun round, struck the unfor-
tunate sweeper and killed him instantly.
The driver of the car, whose record prevl-
ously had been a clean one, was sent to
jail for six months at hard labor. With
such force did the back of the car swing
round that one wheel was broken clean off
at the hub and the pressed steel frame
was badly bent.
Here was a professional car tender, a
man Of wide experience in driving, who APP
parently did not realize that one of the
duties Of a driver is to note the condition
Of the road and bear in mind what the
effect would be of applying the brake hard
when there was nothing upon which the
steel-studded tire could grip, the surface
Of the road being in a frozen and glazed

should be as follows:

dust caps. To this usual equipment should
be added a tire fork (for clincher tires

Other Tools-Jack, small and medium

toothbrush and waste. Coil OF solder wire.

iron or gasoline torch
with the above described outfit one may
take care Of most roadside troubles and do
most Of the home tinkering Unless the
car is very good, indeed, not many Of the
items can safely be left at home, though
on the other hand, If one learns to watch
his car and correct incpient troubles, he
may not actually require his tools on the
road for months at time. The ideal at
which the careful owner should aim is, Of
course, to eliminate involuntary roadside
stops altogether, and It is perfectly pos
sible to do this, barring punctures, ninety
eight times out of hundred, provided of
course, one has a good car.
In the matter of clothing, the sensible
plan is to buy first for the season in which
the car Is bought and to add subsequent
garments, as experience shows to be needed.
About the only article Of apparel which is
useful alike in summer and winter is the
goggles. These, II may be remarked, should
be worn on all but the shortest runs Many
motorists neglect them but this is a serious
mistake and one for which the penalty is
sure to be paid. Even IL there is no dust,
goggles protect the eyes from the chilling
and drying effect of the wind. In summer,
especially at night, they also protect the
eyes from insects. For the man who drives
his own car, another emergency article is
pair of overalls. Another emergency
garment that should be slowed away in

cipal controls are reasonably certain; other
wise nothing definite has been determined.
Even the starting place has not been
fully decided. Both Cincinnati and Indian
apolis are anxious to have the honor which
was Detroits last year. Both of these
cities are under advisement The American
Automobile association will probably Off
cially decide the matter within two or
three days"

How Pinchot Answered Heyburn.

At an irrigation congress at Boise in 1905,
Senator Hepburn, before an audience made
up mainly of his own constituents, at
tackled Pinchot and all that he stood for,
relates Worlds Work. He made a violent
speech against the restrictions of the gov
ernment, against bureaucratic rule, against
the theories of those fasteners who talked
of forest covering" and such things.
When Pinchot got up 20 reply he removed
the cloth from the table on the platform,
tilted the table forward and poured half a
glass Of water upon it. The water, of
course, ran off on the floor.
"Such," said he. lis the action of the rain
on an uncovered hillside"
He then laid blotter on the table and
poured the rest of the water on it. The
blotter absorbed it, but in few minutes
1t began to seep through the lower end.
That is what forest covering does for
a hill" he said. By the time he had done
speaking in this plain practical way, he
had won the audience.
