LITTLE JOYS CHASE
SAD GL00MS AWAY
No More Final Exams" Su.
perintendent Giles An
nOunces Today.

Semi-annual term-end grinds for
finals in high school here ceased
to exist in June 1913. Richmond
high school pupils did not know then
that they were reciting their past
terms history lessons in their sleep
or translating julius Caesar at the
dinner table for the last time. but the
announcement OF superintendent
Giles that there will be no final
exams in the future, sent a thrill of
joy and relief through every high
school pupil this week
The final examination week for the
two school semesters has been drop
ped, and this years work will be done
hereafter in thirty-siX instead of thir-
ty-eight weeks.
Final examinations are almost an
injustice to the average pupil" Mr.
Giles said when he announced the
new order of promotion. They are
too much of a memory test, and a
case of where the pupil with the best
memory wins out. That is not what
school work is for. Pupils should be
promoted on what they do in the
terms entirely"
Final examination grades have
counted one-third of the terms grade
before. The pupils will be graded on
their class work and on the monthly
examinations, and the grading will
still be made on the scale of IS pei
cent for work and 25 per cent for
school interest and conduct

 To begin with, the driver should start away as gently as possible in or der to lessen the wear and tear on the tires and the strain on the engine. The more imperceptibly a start is

 Skidding around corners is nearly always caused by driving too fast.
 The wear and tear upon the roads where sharp bends exist is great, and In many eases deep ruts will be found as the result of undue speed when turning the corners
 Thirdly. as to speed, although as the facts show there has been a great improvement in this respect, and more common sense and considera- tion are manifest among the ranks of the motor car drivers, yet there are one or two points which many might bear in mind with advantage 4 good or bad impression is quickly created by the manner in which the driver stops his car. The vehicle should be gradually slowed. down until the stopping place Is reached, and the brakes almost taken off just before the car comes to a dead stop. It is an assured sign of bad driving for a | man to rush up to a front door or store and put on the brakes at the last moment. bringing the car up with a Iurch which throws the occupants forward in their seats This is not an indication of sfsnartness's or style in driving. but merely an indication

The successful driving of the mod ern motor car is not quite the easy matter it appears. says Mitchell May, secretary of states in New York Apart from any mechanical knowl- edge, not only is skill required but also alertness, foresight. and constant thought of and consideration for oth- CT road users as well as for the ma chine itself.

There fore, a quick moving brain is as es- sentiaI to the motor car driver as an accurate eye.

The qualities of un- derstanding the machine and of being possessed of an alert mind are not a1- ways combined in one person. though much can be done by judicious train ing. The necessity for a1ertness is particularly desirable in driving by night, when every object is distorted, and in the case of overtaking a cy- cIist when nothing but a dim patch of light Is seen in the road ahead.

INCREASED SALES.

It is perhaps not generally known that during 1918, despite all sorts of thought to the contrary, there were more automobiles sold than in any year to date. This should be g very comforting thought to those interest ed in the industry, and additional pleasant food for reflection is the facts just announced, that during January.
