A TALE WITH A MORAL

The Adams County Democrat relates
a story that is so horrible in its details
as 10 suggest the propriety of its exclu-
sion from the mails. And yet II carries
a moral possibility making it legiti-
mate. A Thayer county man sent a lit
tie son of his on an errand. The little
fellow accidentally ran into a stand of
bees and in fifteen minutes he looked
,ffNe warty, crooked neck squash"
And then a series of accidents followed
in q most remarkable and never before
heard-of procession. Listen to the Dem
ocrat:
The father, seeing the condition of
ms son, ran TO hi assistance, and fall
ing to notice a barbed wire fence, ran
into that, cutting big cash In his leg
and running 50 pair of pants. The
family COW, taking advantage Of the
gap in the fence, took to the corn field
ana died from eating too freely of green
corn. Hearing the noise outside, the
wife ran out and upset five-gailon
churn full OF Jersey cream into a basket
OF newly Matched chickens, drowning all
Iof them. In her haste she dropped
500 set of store teeth which full blood
ed Jersey calf took for a carrot and, in
swallowing same, choked to death. The
Daby having been left alone, crawled
through the milk into the sitting room
ana ruined a very valuable carpet.
During the excitement one OF the
daughters ran away with one of the
neighbor's sons and the dog broke up
ten setting hens. The calves also got
out OF an enclosure and chewed the tails
OF OF i've shirts on the clothes line"
All OF which happened because the
father had sent the Lad over to neigh
Dor to borrow the latter's paper instead
OF subscribing for himself. Could the
moral be more plain?

Eight Out of Ten Drivers viii
Completely Ignore PeriIS at
Railway Crossings.
AUTOMOBILES RUN into TRAIN
Chicago Safety Council Is Striving to
See to II That Accidents Are Not
More Frequent Than in
Other Sections.

Eight out of every ten motorists
drive over railroad crossings without
looking either way for the approach
of a train, and one out of five railroad
crossing accidents is the result not
.f train striking the automobile, but
Of the automobile running into the
aide of the train"
The foregoing is the statement con
tanned in a pamphlet distributed TO all
school children by the steam trans
pOrtatIOn committee Of the Chicago
Safety council which is functioning
the careful crossing campaign for the
American Railway association. says

collision between railroad train and
an automobile are also being placed

at is hoped" concludes the pam
phlet, that all children who hear or
see this message will carry it home
to their parents and do everything pos
sihle to prevent railway crossing ucc-
dents this summer At the same time
the railroad employees will themselves
take every consistent action to mini
mlze casualties from this cause"
The campaign of the railroads ex-
tending all over the United States and
Canada continues to September 30;
1t Is exciting unusual interest on the
part Of motorists here and the Safety
council is striving to see to it that
Chicago's record as to railway cross
ing accidents during this period is at
least as favorable as that of other
sections Of the country.
IF all concerned Will cooperate in
our efforts" said President William
Otter Of the Safety council in discuss
ing the situation. Eve will substan-
TALLY avoid such accidents during the
summer months and thus save many
people from death or serious Injury.
Public Interest Lax.
ut is obvious that up to this time
the general public Is not paying de-
ing campaign, for our reports show
that a good many of such accidents
occurred over the weekend in Chi
cago, and the surrounding territory. 1t
is difficult to believe that In the face
Of this campaign motorists persist in
taking chances at railway crossings.
1t isn't so bad for the man driving the
machine to fail to appreciate the dan
ger TO himself involved in crossing
railway tracks, but surely he must
place great value upon the lives of the
people who ride with him One Is
almost forced to think that sometimes
he does not The time has arrived
when we must all become aroused to
this situation and do our share In I'M
proving it."

REMOVAL OF BROKEN
FRONT SPRING LEAF
One of Most Frequent Troubles
With Light Car.
Method illustrated for Replacing Dam
aged Part Without Clamping-Two
Jacks Afford Satisfactory
Means of Lifting.

One of the frequent troubles expert
enced with the light automobile is
breaking of the front-spring leaves.
The drawing illustrates methods that
facilitate the replacing or removal Of
a broken leaf, and the assembly of
the leaves without clamping. The
leaves are assembled star-fashion, as
shown, about the center bolt. The
nut Is easily screwed on thread or
two, after which the leaves are brought
into their proper position and the nut
frightened.
In lifting the car frame above the
axle, to remove or replace a spring
two jacks are placed one on either
side, with their bases resting against
the aXles, their heads resting under
the lamp brackets on each side. The
wheels are blocked so that they can
not rock. This affords a quick method
OF lifting, and one that gives a clear
working space. In cases where the

tape is wrapped around the break and
for about two inches on each side. A
layer Of fine copper or other wire is
then wound over the tape. making
sure that the winding is tight, close
and even Another layer or two OF
tape is then placed over the wire,
after which a few turns OF wire are

You Auto Know

That in the case Of a skid
particularly one caused by the
slipping of the rear wheels,
rather than the front oues-the
worst possible thing to do Is to
apply the brakes. The amateur
drivers first Impulse when any
thing unforeseen happens is to
press down hard with both feet,
dIsengaging the clutch and at the
same time applying the full
force of the fo0t-brake. This
double action upon the rear
wheel only aCCentuates the skid
and causes him to have far less
control Of his car than If he had
kept his feet off either pedal.
The best course to take is to
allow the car to coast, at the
same time attempting to steer
the car in the same direction In
which the rear end of the car is
slidding. Then, If it Is impera-
tive that the car be stopped to
avoid a collision, press the foot
brake slowly and the car will
respond almost instantly. The
best possible preventive of skid
ding, however. is care in driving
and n refusal to take chances on
wet pavements, especially when
turning a corner.
