This disconnects you from the

IMPORTANT DETAILS
FOR NOVICE DRIVER
First Should Learn to Turn Cor
nerS and Signal.
Two Essentials Many Motorists Have
Difficulty in Learning Should Be
Studied and Practiced on
All Occasions.

One of the things that many motor
lists have great difficulty in learning
to do properly is turning corners, says
a writer in d New York exchange.
1t is difficult to coast around cor
ner at low speed, and if high speed is
used the car goes too fast. The nov
ice driver should practice going into
second speed just before he reaches
the corner he is to turn, and then
drive around at slow speed
Another detail every driver should
learn and practice is the matter of
signaling. The law states that the
driver shall signal in some unmistak-
able manner which way he is going
to turn. The left-hand drive makes
this easy. If the operator is going to
the left he should hold his arm out in
a horizontal position. This indicates
to those back of him they should not
come up behind him on that side.
When making right turn the car
should he run close to the curb and
the signal given by waving the hand
III a HlIdiI lNle, with IOTWdfu
swing, as if he says: Come on up on
this side. I'm going to turn the cor
ner." The come on motion is not
prescribed by law, but has become a
custom of the road.
If a sudden stop is necessary the
hand should be held upward. This
signal formerly was used by coach
men on the box and Is well known to
all users of the highway.

CROSS RAILROAD
ON SECOND Gear
Some Good Hints for Driver to
Follow When Engine Stalls
as Train Approaches.
OPEN THROTTLE GRADUALLY
y Accelerator Pedal Is Pressed Too
Quickly Engine Sometimes Stalls
Operator Should Keep His
Presence of Mind.

1t is well to give the mOtorist q
few words of advice on subject
usually disregarded-that of crossing
railroads, writes William H. Stewart,
Jr., in an exchange.
The all too usual method of cross
ing tracks is to drive on high gear,
throttled down. This requires GER
cain amount of gas, and if the amount
is reduced too much the engine will
stall. BY shifting into second speed
all such danger is overcome. Then
the engine is turning faster and it is
not so easy to stall Furthermore,
the car may be driven across the
tracks at approximately the same
speed. The impression prevails that
the car may be speeded up more
readily in high gear in the event of
train approaching, but the distance is
short and a full throttle opening on
second speed will send the car for
ward with greater certainty.
Why an Engine Stalls.
This brings up a matter of i'm
portance, that of opening the throttle
TOO suddenly. If the accelerator pedal
is pressed too quickly the engine some
times stalls. This is because the air
valve yields readily to the increased
suction, giving a sudden rush of ais
before the spray nozzle can respond
with enough gasoline. Whether the
throttle is opened by hand or foot
the driver should open it gradually
enough to give the engine time to re-
spond. No matter how great the dam
ger may be, the throttle must be
opened gradually. This does not
mean to hesitate, but at a speed which
will not cause the engine to choke be-
fore accelerating.
Dangerous Experience.
Sailing the engine with a train ap-
preaching at high speed Is a dangerous
experience, to say the least. There is
no time to start the engine, but the
operator who keeps his presence Of
mind will use the starter to pull out
Of danger. BY shifting into low speed
and pressing the starter pedal the car
Is made to move forward slowly.
Keeping this fact in mind a driver
may save his own life and the lives
Of those with him.
