The arrogant spirit OF tho motorist who
used to consider himself something SUI
pcrior Is disappearing. Aud let me
say that number OF automobile
! dealers with whom have talked re-
Gently, agree with me and tell mo that
their observations are the same as
mine.
Society lays down certain rules of
etiquette which right thinking people
observe. and happily these very points
OF etiquette. as far as the motor car is
concerned. are making for greater safe
" on the highways. For Instance 1t
is considered bad form and just as i'm
polite to pass car on a dusty road
on high speed with the muller cut out
open SO that the occupants of the over
taken car arc showered with dust. as
1t would be to smoke in n street car
and fling cigar ashes about upon pas
scngers clothing.
One piece of motoring etiquette
which have noticed to considerable
extent on this trip is the courteous Gus
tom of diinming ones headlamps on
unliEhteu roads when passing cars and
vehicles. Many accidents have been
caused by drivera' eyes being blinded
by the headlights of an approaching:
car Modern lighting systems are SO
constructed mechanically that it is
really no trouble for Il driver to dim his
lamps. On the salty First car. In
which ] am travelling. ii is certainly
no more trouble to manipulate the
lamps when passing another car than
to sound the horn.
1T Is gratifying to note that motor
lists are becoming more sensible in wet
weather and equip their ears with anti
skid chains. in many instances putting
them on all four wheels. The carry
ing of Il fire eXtinguisher is another
sensible idea to which the motoring
public is rapidly taking.
"Of course. there are certain care
less drivers that never can be cured,
but even many of these are taking tho
matter of Safety First to heart. ana
are driving less recklcssly than for
mcrly.

"SAFETY FIRST" ON ROADS
AIDED BY AUTOMOBILlSTS
Secretary Elliott Gives HIa Obscrvu-
tons of Improvement Since the
Movement Started.


Secretary Frederick H. Elliott, of the
Safety First Society OF New York, who
is making tour of the f;ustcrn and
Middle Western Statos with the So
ctety's Safety First Car in tho in
tcrest OF the widespread movement to
make the highways safer. declares that
motorists us a class are becoming more
careful
81 am drmly convinced that since
the safety First propaganda was
started in n number OF cities recently
the campaign Is accomplishing to II
large degree that which Is set out to
do. In my trip during the past two
weeks | have noticed that many drivers
on the road and open country of the
suburbs, rs we'll as in cities. rs Il ella SIS
are considerably more careful In pass
ing vehicles ana slowing down for
turns. etc, than was the case 4 few
years ago. Many OF us can remember
the time when Il man who had just
purchased new automobile deemed il
quite necessary to go out and pass
everything on the road. skidding around
turns cutting corners. now and then
scraping mudguards with another car.
Nowadays, however, since the agita-
ton for greater safety has been in
progress, the owner of a new vehicle
in the majority of eases considers "
bad form to do stunts on the road |
have observed many motorists taking
pains to slow down on especially oily
roads or roads that have Just been
wntrcdc, in order not to splash pedes-
trians OH the sidewalk, Il thing that
was nasty abuse a few wears ago
Anoehcr Thing ! have noticed is that
IN many suburban places drivers slow
down on dusty roads in order not to
Kick up more dust than is necessary,
particularly when women in white
clothes are walking on the sidewalks.

An Eight Cylinder Cadill

Serious minded motor manufacturers have sought
