The Bedding Independents tackled
on two more victories 10 their
already long list when they downed
the fast Flint-Buicks i'm both games
Of double header, Saturday, July
Fourth.
The Flint team, one Of the scrap
piest OF all the factory leagues in the
state gave a fine account of them
selves and it took all of Belongs
class and fine form TO beat them.
Bailey pitched a no-hit, no-run
game for Bedding, making the second
no-hit, no-run game of the season,
the other being pitched by Worden.
The Sunday game at Smyrna was a
festivity FOO the Bedding team. Bal
ley and Worden, both regular pitchers,
were away on vacation and other
members of the team tried out their
arms against Smyrna, with good re-
suits.

game A real Fourth of July crowd
Of 500 people was out to witness the
battle. Greenville was out to see
Bedding get trimmed" and the en-
tire body of Bedding fans were there
with the firm conviction that they
could not be beaten. Worden took
the mound for Belding and Murphy
was sent out for the Bucks. The
game was entirely holiday game and
sensational throughout with both
teams see-sawing for advantage and
playing loose ball. In the sixth Wor-
den retired to the field and Bailey
took his place. The game was excit-
ing, owing to the fact that it was UNI
decided until the ninth inning. The

play the fast Smyrna aggregation.
Bedding fans were in a blue funk" as
their pitchers were unable to attend.
Henry was chosen as a substitute
pitcher and after seeing him warm up
Bedding took heart enough to cheer a
little. Henry showed wonderful form
and held the Smyrna stickers 10 only
one hit The Bedding boys gleefully
chased around the sacks for fourteen
runs. Manager, Guy Alexander, after
seeing the regulars play awhile decid-
ed that he was some ball player and
yanked Henry out and took his place.
He did well until he came TO bat when
he misjudged one of Jakeway's spit

EXPERT WRITES ON
SAFE OPERATION OF
PLEASURE AUTOS

Less than "A quarter of a century ago
a person would have been considered
visionary and impractical, to say the
least If he had predicted that a self
propelled vehicle would soon be in
vented that would travel over the pub
lie highways at speeds as high as a
mile "A minute, and with power suffi-
cient to enable it TO climb the steepest
hills with ease. To-day perfor-
nance Of this kind is commonplace,
and no special comment is excited by
published accounts of automobile
races in which speeds of eighty,
ninety, or even one hundred miles an
hour are attained. When the auto
mobile reached the stage Of mechani-
cal perfection that permitted it to
travel twenty-five miles or so, without
stopping for repairs, it was considered
marvelously efficient; but at the pres
ent time delays on the road due to
mechanical troubles are rare, and the
tourist may often continue his journey
day after day, without giving special
attention to his machine beyond pro-

Instructive knowledge

One OF the prime requisites in the
safe operation of an automobile is a
thorough and instructive knowledge
on the part of the driver, of the uses
of the various levers and pedals that
control the movements of the car
The seasoned driver does not stop to
think what motions must be made to
bring the car TO sudden stop in case
of an emergency. When an accident
seems imminent he instinctively
throws out the clutch and applies the
brake, in a mere fraction OF the time
that would be required if he were
obliged to think out each motion in
advance. No person should attempt
TO operate a car in crowded traffic un-
til he has acquired something of this
manipulative from a skilled and ex-
perienced operator.
Although many Of the more recent
ly-built automobiles are equipped with
self-starting devices, the great major
ity of automobile engines are probably
started by means of a crank-handle.
The arms, hands, and wrists of the
operators are often broken, sprained,
or badly bruised by kick backs"
from these starting handles. Safety
handles can be had, which practically
eliminate these dangers; but for some
reason or other they do not appear to
be widely used Before attempting To
crank the engine. the spark should be
retarded. TO prevent too early ignition.
The operator should grasp the crank
with his left hand, placing his thumb
along the length of the handle rather
than around il, and pull upward on it.
When starting large engine with
high compression, il is quite common
for a driver to rock" the handle 10
obtain the advantage of the slight
momentum given TO the flywheel in
this way, so that the engine may be
more easily turned over the compress
sion stroke; but this is a dangerous
practice and il should be avoided so
far as possible. A striking example
recently came to our notice, OF the
utter disregard for safety that is oe-
casionally displayed by drivers in
starting their cars. In this case the
operator placed the starting handle in
a horizontal position, and then stood
upon it in order to turn the engine
over.

Danger With Auto

The evolution of the automobile,
from the slow, uncomfortable, cum
bersome, and Observation-Disclosures
conveyance of the past, to the swift,
dependable, luxurious car of today,
has been attended by corresponding
ly increasing amount of danger, not
only to the operator of the car and his
passengers, but also to the public at
large. The number of accidental
deaths in cities has largely increased
since the advent of the automobile,
and in country towns and on all public
highways the danger OF being struck
by a swiftly-moving car, in charge of
an inexperienced or careless driver, is
always present. Even the careful
driver may not entirely escape acct
dents, because many injuries are
direct consequences of carelessness or
inattention on the part of pedestrians
and drivers of other vehicles. Some
of these accidents may be avoided by
constant watchfulness on the part of
the automobile operator, but in other
cases no amount of care will enable
him to escape them.
There is no doubt that the blame for
many accidents is unjustly laid upon
the shoulders of the automobilist, and
il is equally true that the neglect of
some simple precaution on his part
has often led to serious injuries, or

If Engines Dies"

If the engine dies" Cor becomes
stalled) while ascending a HILL and
the brakes fail to hold the car, the en-
CINE may be used as a brake by shift
ing the gear lever to the reverse posi-
ton cutting off the ignition current,
and letting in the clutch This must
be done, however, before the car has
attained any great speed because
otherwise the gears are likely To be
stripped when the clutch is let in, and
the danger will be increased. If an
emergency of this kind arises the driv-
er should keep as cool as possible, and
should remember that safety Of his
passengers depends entirely upon his
skill, and upon prompt action on his
part.
Special care should be taken when
driving at night. and in fog. rain. and
snow squalls. If the glare of the
lights on an approaching car inter-
feres with the view of the road ahead,
the car should be slowed down or
brought TO a complete stop. When
approaching unguarded. railroad
crossings the car should be stopped,
if the view is obstructed in either
direction, and one or the passengers
should be sent ahead to see that all is
safe. If the engine should become
stalled while crossing a railroad track,
the passengers should Immediately get
out Of the car and go TO a safe place,
meanwhile keeping watch in both
directions, in order to warn the driver
Of approaching trains.-Travelers'
Standard

always keep on the right-hand side of
the road, except when passing other
vehicles that are going i'm the same
direction. In such cases the vehicle
that are coming up from the rear
should always pass to the left OF the
over-taken vehicle. There should be
no exception To this rule, as many
authorities maintain that an exception
should be made when passing a trolley
car, furniture van. or any other
large, high wagon or load, the size of
which prevents the driver of the auto
mobile from seeing ahead on the road;
and traffic officers in some cities re-
quire automobiles to turn TO the right
in overtaking vehicles of this nature.
Unless local traffic regulations require
turning TO the right, however, we are
OF the opinion that the rule to turn
to the left in overtaking other vehicles
should still be followed, even in these
cases, although IL is then especially
important not TO turn out too quick
ly or abruptly. A long sweeping turn
should be made, at reduced speed, and
preferably at some considerable dis
lance behind the vehicle that is to be
passed; and the driver should look
sharply ahead in all such cases, so
that he will see, at the earliest mo-
ment possible, any teams, automobiles,
trolley cars, or pedestrians that may
be in his course. When about to pass
a vehicle from behind, an adequate
warning signal should be given, and
the speed of the car should be re-
duced whenever such reduction will
diminish the likelihood Of accident. A
driver should never attempt to eXer-
else his skill by turning in as closely
as possible in front of the vehicle that
has just been passed, but should allow
plenty of room TO avoid striking it.
Similar rules should be observed when
meeting a vehicle coming from the OPP
posite direction, and plenty of room
should be allowed in every case.
Operators of large cars sometimes
hog the road" to use an expressive
though inelegant phrase), and fail to
show proper consideration to the driv-
ers Of small cars and of horse drawn
vehicles. Conduct of this kind causes
ill-feeling, and in many cases it is
also extremely dangerous.

Before Stratin@

Before attempting to start the en-
CINE, care should be taken to see that
the clutch has been withdrawn, or
that the gear-shift lever is in the
neutral position. 1t is also important
10 make sure that the brakes are set
up tightly if the car is standing on an
incline, because if this is neglected the
vibration of the engine, after it has
been started, may set the car in mo-
ton.
Accidents frequently result from
the omission of proper precautions
when leaving the car unattended tenn
porarily The switch plug should be
removed the gear-shift lever should
be placed in the neutral position, and
the brakes should be set UP tightly.
If the car is standing on an incline it
is advisable i'm addition, TO turn the
wheels so that one Of them VII rest
against the curb. If this is done there
will be no danger Of the car running
away in case some mischievous or
person should release the
brakes.

Morning Game.

The scrappy Buick team from Flint
bowed in defeat to Bedding in the first
game OF a double header at Athletic
Park Saturday morning in one Of the
best ball games played here this year.
Currey, of the Bucks, was pitted
against Bailey for Bedding and both
pitchers showed excellent form. Bal
ley pitched no-hit, no-run game for
Belding, and proved To be good

supposed to be a heavy hitting crowd.
The Flint aggregation were good play
ers and good fellows. One of the
most noticeable things at the game
was the absence of "beefing" and

hitting by riding the ball for two hits.
"Ham" Eek covered third sack in a
way which pleased the Bedding fans.
The entire team was in fourth of July
