KEEP WATCH ON
GASOLINE PUMP
Pointers Given to Motorists by
National Automobile Cham
Der of Commerce.
CONSERVE FUEL and MONEY
Twelve Excellent Rules Formulated
for Benefit of Owners-Short De-
~ livery Is Likely if Details Are
Overlooked

Points for motorists to remember
when purchasing gasoline have been
formulated by the National Automo-
bile Chamber of Commerce, with a
view to conserving gas and saving
money for the car owners. He is ad-
vised as follows:
l. Urge your dealer to make daily
test Of the accuracy of his gasoline
measuring pump with standard five
gallon measure.
2. On pumps making OnegallOn de-
livery, see that the pump operator
makes a full stroke and that the piston
travels it's full length.
Watch Indicating Device.
3. Watch the counter or indicating
device on all pumps provided there
with.
4. See that the operator drains the
delivery hose.
5. On pumps provided with gradu-
ated glass-cylinders, see that the gasO-
line reaches the proper graduation.
6. Beware of the filling stations
y
pump inside the building.
I. Operators should willingly test
pumps in the presence of the autoist
with the five-gallOn standard measure
sealed by the local inspector of weights
and measures.
s. Short delivery gasoline is some
times caused by leaks in the supply
line to the pump. This condition causes
the pump to deliver air instead of
gasoline and can be detected by the
sputtering sound.
8. If the gasoline is low in the sup
ply tank, short delivery is likely to re-
suit. This can be detected by the ir-
regular flow of gasoline and the sput-
tering sound. Such a condition is fire.
quently encountered where portable
filling tanks are used.
First Delivery Short.
10. The first delivery made by a
pump after it has been standing idle
for some time is invariably short. This
is caused by the gasoline already in
the measuring chamber leaking back
into the dealers supply tank through
leaky check valve.
IL. View with suspicion a gasoline
delivery hose attached to a we'll in the
curb. 1t is impossible to properly drain
hose so installed, and adequate meas
ure cannot be obtained unless this is
done.
II. In rare cases pumps may be de-
liberately manipulated to deliver short
amounts through the changing of meas
uring adjustments.

seeing. And he held winning hand because as
a matter of fact national parks excel in su-
preIne scenic quality and variety the combined ac-
cessibile scenery of the rest of the world
The national park situation is still very far from
being satisfactory, according to the views of the
unofficial leaders of the national park movement
Congress has no settled national park policy. Poll
tics is still large factor in determining the eS
tablishment of national parks. There is
standardization of national park acts. Congress
appropriates annually for each park separately
with the result of unsatisfactory allotment of
funds. Nevertheless, lot has been Accomplished
under Secretary Lane. And here some of the
things that have been brought about
The passage of act in 1916 establishing the
national park service the ninth bureau of the
interior department. This probably was the most
important piece of national park legislation since
the national park system was begun by the crea-
ton of the Yellowstone National park in 1872
the first national park of the world. 1t provides
the machinery for the administration, protection
and development of the national parks The act
sets forth that the service shall promote and regu
late the use of the national parks by such means
and measures conform to their fundamental pur-
pose (which purpose is to conserve the scenery
and the natural and historic objects and the wild
life therein and to provide for the enjoyment of
the same in such manner and by such means as
will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of
future generatiOnS.'
The prOmulg cation in 1918 by Secretary Lane OF
a "Statement of National Park Policy" This pol
icy is based on three broad principles: First that
the national parks must be maintained in absolute
ly unimpaired form for the use of future genera
tiOns as we'll as those of our own time; second,
that they be set apart for the use, observation,
health and pleasure of the people, and, third that
the national interest must dictate all decisions af
fecting public or private enterprise i'll the parks"
AS to the establishment of new national parks
the statement lays down these principles: "Ih
studying park projects you should seek to find
scenery of supreme and distinctive quality or some
natural feature so extraordinary unique as to
be Of national interest and importance. The
national park system now constituted should
not be lowered in standard, dignity and prestige by
the inclusion of areas which express in less than
the highest terms the particular class kind of
exhibit which they represent"
Seven national parks have been established, as
follows
Rocky mountain (1915) in Colorado 39S square
miles of the Colorado Rockies either side of the
continental divide.
Hawaii O916), 118 square miles i'll the Hawaiian
islands, including the volcanoes Of Mauna LOa and
Kilauea on Hawaii and Haleallala on Maui.
Lassen Volcanic G@1G). in California, 124 square
miles, including Lassen peak the only active vol
cano in the United States proper.

CAREFUL DRIVING Is
DUTY OF MOTORISTS
Driver Should Always Be VigiIant
to Avoid Accident.
Maintenance of Car in Good Condition
Is Next Consideration and FIRE.
quent Inspection, Especially Of
Wheels, Is NeedfuI.

Prevention of accident is the ever
present duty of all motorists. The
driver should always be vigilant to
prevent disaster. Careful driving is,
of course, the first consideration, the
idea being to always avoid risk.
Next comes the maintenance of the
car in good condition. This requires
frequent inspection, especially of the
wheels. Wheel trouble is too fire.
quently overlooked and the condition
Of the spokes neglected. Loose spokes
make the car unsafe in sudden emer-
gencies, with terrible results in some
cases.
The first indication of loose spokes
are squeaks and paint cracks where
the SpOkes join at the hub or rib. The
cracks show that the wood has shrunk.
If not attended to promptly, the
spOkes work lOOser. till the stability
of the wheel is seriously impaired.
Then. at a critical moment. the wheel
cOllapses.
The motorist should always take
time to see that the wheels of his
car are in good running order, for
still other reasons. 1t is much easier
and less expensive to correct defects
in their carly stages than later on.
Again, unsOund and insecure wheels
cause all other parts of the car to de-
teriorate more rapidly than they would
otherwise If the wheels do not run
true the tires soon wear out, the
chassis is warped out of shape and the
foundation on which the motor rests
weakens ST that the mechanism works
under unnecessary and ruinous strain.
Neglected wheels soon reduce car
to condition of useless junk, where
as little care as occasion demands
adds greatly to it's life, pleasure and
security.

ARE YOU A "GOWAG?"

The suggestion is made that
every mOtOrist become a "gO-

remind the motorist of the five
things he should always watch
If he would avoid trouble in
keeping his car running. A "go-
wag" lives up to his name by
remembering:
G stands for gasoline always
have a sufficient fuel supply.
o for oil plenty of it and the
right kind.
w for water; even motors
have a terrible thirst.
A for air; tires must be in

Proper fabrication is just as much
a factor in the feeling of safety in mo-
toring as new tires or recently over
hauled motor.
AS you approach stop cOasting, or
as YOU coast around corners, be sure
to throttle down, to prevent engine
