DRIVERS CAN HELP MAINTAIN ROADS
BY USING ENTIRE HIGHWAY SURFACE

Drivers can do as much, almost, for
the maintenance of good roads as high
way engineers" declares Alfred F.
Masury, chief engineer of the Interna-
tional Motor company, manufacturer
of Mack trucks.
Did you ever notice" asked Mr..
MaSury, in going up hill, particularly
one paved with asphaltic concrete, that
the surface on the righthand side of
the road Is wavy and rough, while that
on the left hand side is smooth?
We'll, the reason is this: The ex-
ira traction required to climb the hill
wears and tears the surface, while
there Is little or no traction down hill.
Another thing, the righthand track
OF the road in either direction Is the
one which is worn most. This is be-
cause of the arched surface of the road
which throws the greater weight and
strain on the right hand side of the
vehicle and consequently the righthand
side of the roadway. Truck builders
and wagon makers have even adjusted
their axles and springs so as to with
stand the greater strain on the right
hand side of the vehicle.
The custom OF arching the road
ways was formed in the early days of
road making VIII an dirt and porous
surfaced roads were the ones mostly in
use, and 1t was necessary to give suf-
ficient pitch to the surface of the
roadway to drain off the water and
prevent 1t from penetrating the sur
face of the road to soften and weak en-

The announcement that the WHY'S

OTHER EXPANSIONS
OF almost equal importance is the
announcement of plans for the expan-

corporation, both OF which will con-
tribute parts for the construction Of
the new car.

USE AMERICAN CARS
IN KANGAROO HUNT
Australian Ranchers Pursue the
Pests with Army Rifles and
Make Thrilling Sport of It,
According to Story.

quaint story, unsponsored and I'M
identified. wanders into the office Of
the. Spokane Spokesman Review In
connection with the vogue American
automobiles are gaining in Australia
1t describes the use of cars to hunt
the kangaroo, which is a pest in the
Antipodes somewhat like his cousin,
the American jackrabbit.
Three sturdy automobiles each bear
ing several men armed with heavy
army rifles speed through the Austral-
ian landscape. They come from Ade-
laide, South Australia, and head north
ward toward the heart of the plain
which extends in unbroken dreariness
for hundreds of miles in that direc-
ton. The lookout in the leading car
scans the horizon with a fieldglass.
There they are!" he calls out, point
ing to a slight rise. The heads of
few kangaroos are plainly visible above
the salt brush, which grows beyond
Burra Burra,, the jumping-off place of
civilization.
The whirr of the engines must reach
the animals sensitive ears; for they
take to flight with tremendous bounds.
At distance of 200 yards they STOP
The automobiles continue in their
wild rush over the rough ground, and
now the hunters let their rifles speak.
One of the animals is wounded. The
remainder of the herd, keeping well
together, leaps away in one direction,
while the wounded animal hops with
terrific speed in the opposite direction.
The nearest car takes up the pursuit,
and for three miles continues in its
course, parallel to that taken by the
wounded kangaroo. The brush be-
comes thinner and the hunters head
their car in a straight line for the ami
NAL. which shifts its course to an angle
that brings it directly across the path
Of the oncoming car. A shot ends the
flight.
Now back to the pursuit of the rest
of the herd. After drive OF few
miles the animals are sighted. At
distance OF so or 60 yards the hunters
open fire, killing four of the animals.
The fifth, a young kangaroo, takes to
the open country. The hunters have
decided to catch 1t alive. AS they ap-
proach their prey one of the hunters
creeps forward on the running board,
seizes the kangaroo by the tail, and
manages to hold on to both car and
animal until the car Is stopped.
Each year during the prolonged
drouth in the Australian bush sections
farming sections, great numbers in
vading the ranches and destroying the
crops. Before automobiles were pressed
into service kangaroo hunting was al
most a hopeless job.

the roadbed. With modern watertight
surfaces, the necessity for arched
roads does not exist and engineers are
designing roads with very slight pitch.
Drivers can prevent wear to the
surfaces Of the roads and even improve
their conditions, il instead of driving in
one track or on the edge of the road,
they will drive over the middle and
other less used parts of the road when
traffic permits. The one thing that is
fatal above all things to road surfaces,
whether dirt or paved, is driving in
tracks, which subjects one small part
of the road surface to all the traffic
and damage that the whole road ac-
commodities. Traffic should be evenly
distributed over the entire surface of
the road. and little thoughtfulness
and care in this respect on the part
Of drivers will do much to add to the
permanence and excellence of our
roadWays."

CLAIMS S4,000,000
SAVED TOMEMBERS
IN AUTO INSURANCE
Owners of Horseless Carriages
in California Cooperate in
Fight on Repairs Profiteers
Then Try Other Problems.

Worthy of study by associations of
of the Automobile club of Southern
California, which numbers thousands
of members, and which has a record
of achievements very satisfactory to
their purses and peace of mind.
1t all goes back to that day in 1912
when a San Francisco mechanical re-
pairman charged the Los Angeles
owner of a ''horseless carriage" SIS for
applying a match to the pilot light of
his stalled machine way out on Jeffer-
son street This is a match too
much" said the owner, land SIS is
much too much" so forthwith he gath
cred some of his >norseless carriage
owning friends together and com
biNation in restraint of exorbitant re-
pan charges" was formed.
This cooperative combination of au-
tomobile owners was known as the
Automobile Club of Southern Califor-
MIA.
TAKE UP INSURANCE.
BY 1912 the club had grown and
prospered, and the powers that were
within its ranks decided that some
thing should be done to reduce the
high cost of automobile insurance.
They remembered Row they had re-
duced the high cost of repairs by
singing the bee of cooperation There
upon the Interinsurance Exchange of
the Automobile club was launched.
Now, seven years later, club direct
ors and officials have discovered that
old Mr.. II. c. Ibis own worst press
agents not invincible, for they have
opened the eyes of the insurance world
by reducing insurance rates % per
cent over the club rates of last year!
With everything else costing more. the
spirit of cooperation" has animated
southern California into finding a way
to make their insurance cost less.
REDUCE RATES.
But beginning with 1912 the club
found a way to reduce it's insurance
to motorists from time to time, and
along with it's reductions came re-
auctions by the board companies, so
that southern California automobile
owners profited while they slept Now
1t is estimated that the total saving
to these car owners in the southern
part of the state since 1912 has been
more than S4,000,000 just because the
motorists themselves decided to re-
duce their own rates on insurance.
The pioneering spirit of the south
ern California club has trickled else
where. and now in Michigan, Illinois
and Ohio other motorists are finding
that by clubbing together they can
save themselves some hundreds of
thousands of dollars every year. and
inter- insurance exchanges are doing
their part in putting auto insurance
rates down to a level within the reach

DRAGON FLY FRIEND OF MAN

Scientific American Supplement-
 Perhaps the most valuable bene- ficial insects are those which func- tion in repressing the harmful insects by preying on them. The services of the dragon fly in this capacity are of the greatest importance. This insect has long been the object of fear and dislike by human beings, owing no doubt to its fierce appearance and rapid, darting motions.
 Children have been terrified by the superstition that the dragon fly, "dev- ils alarming needle" would pierce their ears, or sew them shut. Yet the dra- gon fly is nQt only harmless to man, but is one of his best friends in that he is the deadly enemy of the mos quito-that pest that is one of the most numerous, widely distributed and persistent of the creatures that men ace the health and comfort of man. So much is the dragon fly the mosquito's S enemy that he is called the mosquito hawk''-and anyone who has watched the swift movements and cruel aspect of the dragon fly as he darts at his prey will agree that the name is well given.
 As both the mosquito and dragon fly are semi -aquatic, the warfare be- tween the two begins early, the young of the dragon fly feeding on the young mosquito, just as the adult dragon fly preys on the full grown mosquito As serious blood maladies are known
