Celebrating upon the theory that

driving is a chance in changeable-

that too many collisions and acct

effort made to stand by ones de

The driver who slowly, but de-
liberately, drives through line Of
pedestrians who won't obey the

injure them than the driver who
starts to assume his right and then

of the first part the same mental
attitude is found in the mind of the
party OF the second part. There is
confusion. and finally an accident.

sure just what he intends doing
naturally gives no warning to others
of his intentions. Thus anything

THE SATURDAY

well, but If he had the right idea
about this speed business mebbe l

jobs over again.
I've got enough business without
tryin' to convince car owners that 1t
pays to pick out slow worker
when they want some expert trouble
shootin', but just the same l feel
that l oughta slip them the tip. Just
the other day a man came in here
with the story that they had a
click IN the transmission. l told
him the trouble was in the speedo-
meter, but he insisted that a speedo-
meter expert had told him other

That was where l stopped arguin'
and put on my thinkin' cap.
know the owner was sore because |
didn't throw myself in high and
make a lot of noise. But he wanted
results, didn't he? And how can you
get results without usin' your head?
After 1 had studied the thing a bit
I located the noise in the speedo-
meter gear that drives from the
rear end of the transmission. TAX
in it out | found it as dry as a
bone. showing that a little grease
would do the trick. Joe, my help
er. came right out with the news
that the particular part should have
been fabricated by the grease in the
transmission. And that's what the
speedometer expert said when | told
him what I had found. But that's
just the point. Here was a trans
mission that didn't act accordin' to
Hoyle, and so the speedomete> drive
gear went dry.

lead in trouble shootin' because he
takes time to think of what MIGHT

Signs OF the ZINES Z.
According to recent developments
in the billboard advertising industry
the motorist Is soon to be able 10
see America first when he goes =
touring. Just now 1t is a matter OF
seeing the billboards first.
Some fifteen large users OF out
door advertising space have agreed
to curtaiI their billboard messages
or at least use more discretion in
placing them That the Standard
Oil Company Of New York and OF
California; the Washburn- Crosby
Company, and the kelly-Sprinsfield
Tire Company are among the lead :
ers in this movement is hint enough
that America should shortly emerge
from behind collar advertisements
and liver pills ads. The followthe-
leader tendency will doubtless be
pronounced.
That the California Standard Oil
Company is taking down 1900 signs
in Oregon, Washington, Nevada,
Arizona and California does not
mean that the country is neces-
sarily to witness an end of the bill
board. France and Switzerland pro-
hibited the billboard from the high
ways, but American auto tourists
are a practical lot and 1t is believed
that they will look with favor upon
the continuation of signs that serve
practical purposes.
Such signs are hotel announce
ments upon the approach to a strange
city Marking of dangerous points
by bllboards is not only good. ad-
vertising but practical safety work.
Signs that tell a little something of
historical value regarding points of
interest also have their place.
The Standard Oil Company of New
York is also planning to furnish
free to Concessionaires model de-
signs for highway booths as a
means of putting an end to hot
dog" stands and other unsightly
roadway features. All in all it be-
gins to look as though America will
have n chance to be seen. and seen
safely, by motorists.
