Certainly a motorboat is handy

Certainly motorboat is handy
thing.
Isn't it a fact that many a driver
who blames the wind for his burning
ears hits tree before he learns that
it was because other drivers were
talking about him?
The chief drawback to book taught
motorology is that when the old bus
is running all right you don't need
it. then when she stops dead on you
your darncd bookology won't work.
Nickel Trimmings
The present fad for nickel trim
mings is u pretty one but unfortu-
nate. because nickel requires atten-
ton and the modern driver hasn't
hardly time to buy his gas. A few
trimmings well polished will very
shortly be found to be preferable to
a mass of them gone rusty.
We Believe It!
They really did change a tire and
supply fuel to a racing car out in
Indianapolis in % seconds If any
repairman over did such a job in %
minutes he would have nervous pros
tration and his customer would drop
dead.
Many a car is flattered by the
amount OF insurance its owner car
ries upon it,

For q great many years this coun-
try was covered over with segregated,
separated. isolated neighborhoods, to
which in the winter you could not
get because II you tried it your
wheels would go to the hub in the
mud, and where, consequently, COM
munities were shut in to their own
life and to their own separated
thought. 1t 10 perfectly obvious that
we must have an intricate and per-
feet network of roads throughout the
length and breadth OF this great con-
tinent before we will have released
the energies of America.
Good roads are necessary for every
practical aspect of our lives-to draw
neighbors together, to create a COM
munity of feeling. TO create those
arteries which may be compared to
the arteries of the human body. The
blood of the nation will not how in
harmonious concord unless it can
flow in intimate sympathy. So in the
argument. the material argument,
the argument about crops and the
products of the mines. sinks into
consider the spiritual thing men are
doing in making roads.
Take no thought of the morrow.
Sufficient unto the day is the price,
the quantity and the quality Of the
gas YOU need.
Figure This Out
Maryland taxes one cent a gallon
on all gasoline used on motor vehic-
leg. Wonder IL the tax is computed
on the amount of gas a man pays
for. the amount he really does get, or
the amount the gas seller says he
gets. There is considerable differ
cnce between these though it is an
old time fiction that they are identi-
cally the same.
Chock. Then Chuck!
The thoughtless, selfish driver when
forced to check his car on grade
too often leaves the chockings, US
uallv good sized stones from the
woodside. for other drivers to pass
over much TO the others discomfort.
not TO say danger. Chock, then
chuck. should be the rule of those
who block the wheels of their cars
with loose stones and such like mat
crial. No well meaning road user
ever leaves the right Of way over
" hich he passes in any worse condi-
ton than he found it if he can pre-
vent it's being so.
Observations
A really generous wife is one who
allows hubby TO use the car lie gave
her at least once week without
making him take her along. The i'm
possible wife is the one who would
not only equal the generous one but
would far surpass her by not asking
What hubby was going to do with the
car. There are no impossible wives.
Near Geneva they have killed an
unknown bird with bill sixteen and
one half inches long. The Swiss
needn't worry: we know that bird all
right: he's garage keeper. His big
bin identifies him beyond any ques-
ton.
1t costs something like 5000
rubles for a tire patch in Russia.
That's bad enough, but when you
have to get a wheelbarrow carry
the change you get back from a dol
lar after paying the $4,000, 1t does
seem like too much of a good thing,
What?
IT we believe the funny men Of the
stage and press. some girls will get
right out of a motor car and walk
home IL you attempt to kiss them.

or will be very glad to know that he is
somewhat improved after his illness,
but still is confined to hts home.
Mrs. Arthur harrington and daugh-
ter Carmen Of South China, who have
been visiting Mrs. w. l.. Mansfield OF
Halifax street. returned home Tuesday
evening.
Much attention was attracted here
Tuesday evening about o'clock when
an enori JUS truck. almost as large as
the oil cars that bring kerosene and
gasoline to the local oil concerns, by
rail, stopped at Kendall & Ramse.s
store at Masons Corner and filled, or
partly filled their gas tank. The big
car is used on the state roads in Rhode
Island for oiling purposes. and as the
driver was rather conservative about
the whole thing. the oil storage capac-
ity was not learned but the driver did
state that he would not have to take
gasoline again between here and Port
land unless some leakage or something
else unforeseen occurred. This ma
chine has been working in Bangor and
is on it's way back to Rhode Island.
Someone remarked while it was here
that they knew it couldn't be a Maine
car because it was too large for the
State of Maine. but we all know that
that same observer doesn't realize
what big state Maine is.
