1t Is quite important that a person
who frequently drives two or more
different cars should have controls on
all OF them OF similar action. Throt.
tie sod spark levers should have simi.
lar movement directions to advance
and retard in all cars. The mind be-
comes automatic In regard to duties
that are done many times exactly
alike, and IL changes have to be made
In motions Of control of a car. mis-.
takes are liable to occur. What would
you think OF having the wheel ON one

another to the left with the aame
movement, yet such is the way WITH

For School Lunch.
When preparing school or other
luncheons, add oranges which have
been skinned, divided into sections
and wrapped separately in waxed pa.
per-. They are easy to eat and will
take the place OF liquid drink. Hard

Advice Given by Writer to Those
Auto Drivers Who Make Use
of the Country Roads.
DO NOT FOLLOW OTHER CAR
Those Who Persist In Travelling Along
Exactly the Same Lines al the
Other Fellow Are Largely Re-
sponsible for Spelling the
Highways.

Have o ever stopped to think that
you. Mr.. Automobile Owner. can do a
lot to help along the good roads move
ment and preserve the surface of the
highways without SO much as donating
a cent toward their upkeep?
l do not mean that you are to be
exempt from doing your share toward
helping to solve the problem Of good
roads. for the future great advantage
of the gasolene-propelled vehicle will
lie liz the pleasures and business ad-
vantages gained In travelling from
town to town, city to city and state
to state, says a writer In the Chicago
Record-Herald.
In this article l have been asked to
deal with the touring motorist who
knows not the meaning of the word
economy In using country roads. Or I
might better put it by saying that I
have been asked to call the attention
OF the automobile owner and truck
driver to their lack of appreciation OF
good roads.
When An automobile owner or driv.
er strikes n piece Of bad road he sure
ly realizes 1t, and either expresses or
feels dissatisfaction Very often, how.
ever, others Of his kind are RESPONSE
BILE for its condition.
For the year Of 1914 why not make
a resolution that you will do your lit
tie share toward preserving the good
roads and helping the bad ones?
The first and most important les
son in preservation of the highways
Is found In the motto adopted by one
Of the good roads clubs in Texas.
Don't Drive in the Rut!"
Examples innumerable IN all parts
of the country might be recited In this
article where fine pieces OF highway
or a translate road In It's entirety
has been destroyed by Automobiles
who persist in travelling on exactly
tie same lines as the other fellow.
How often have you seen a we'll
oiled country road in faiT,v good con.
1ition or n e section of highway
Just built become almost impossible
by constant usage of a rut that was
first marked by the initial car to tray
ell over It. q.
Almost without an exception every
piece Of good road in the country is
sooner or later destroyed by careless
ness on the part of the owner or his
chauffeur. Six inches of a road that is
often twelve feet wide is called upon
to stand the strain of all the machines
that ass over It.
After these ruts are started and
the surface has been broken through,
the chuck holes and dust holes come,
M In many seasons you have the
water to contend with, which softens
the surface and decreases the eff.
cheney Of the material used in making
the road.
Don't drive in the rut' would be a
splendid motto for all motorists to
adopt and then live up to It would
save millions OF dollars annually in
the building Of roads, Increase the
pleasures Of the tourist many fold and
In the end ave the auto.

Growing Children and study.

AS soon as a child begins to grow
rapidly all intellectual exertion should
be checked. Such Is the theory which
DR.. G. Mercier, IN English authority
on children, expresses in an article in
the London Lancet. Especially when
there is any family tendency to nerv-
GUS or mental disorder, rapidly grow.
ing children should DO withdrawn from
school altogether until the period OF
rapid growth is over.

bound freight train No. &c, while steal
ing a ride, an unidentified man about
% years of age was cut TO pieces and
killed five miles west of Davenport.
Members of the train crew noticed the
unconscious form of the man as he
was dragged along the track. His
clothing had caught, evidently, after
the wheels had passed over his legs.
The train was brought to a halt and
the crew ran TO the assistance CT the
unfortunate man. Life was already ex-
tinct. From the rough clothes worn
by the victim he was evidently a hobo
No marks were found on the clothing
by which he may he identified. The
trade mark had been torn out of the
coat and no labels or stamps were
found on the rest of the clothing. An
empty pocket book, small piece of
mirror and a can of Red Belt tobacco
were the only things found in the peck
cts CT along the track near the spot
where the man fell under the wheels.
The hobo met his death at the identi-

legs were badly cut and crushed and
the face was badly scratched The
