member, the brakes are not operative
when the rear wheels are lacked up
off the ground.
When in the garage, the engine
should not be run longer that neces-
sary. Carbon monoxide is contained in
the exhaust gases and unless the garage
is fairly well ventilated may cause
headaches, other discomforts and even
death to the persons in the garage.
If you haven't self-starter be care
full not to break your arm when crank
ing. (a) Always pull the crank up,
not down, and don't spin it unless alb
solutely necessary; tb) When grasping
the crank, place thumb on same side OF
handle with the fingers; then if there
is kick-back, handle will slip from
the hand; {c) Keep the spark retarded
until the engine has started.
Be careful when working around or
using rags near rotating fan.
Keep wrenches and other tools in
good condition; if badly worn they
should be discarded.
Enter and leave the garage slowly
Street car motormen, pedestrians, chill
dren, other drivers and garage workers
may not be looking.
Don't drive too close to the gasoline
pump at garage or filling stations, and
always be sure to shut off the engine
when the tank is being filled with
gasoline.

CARE IN HANDLING OF GAS

prepared by the National Safety
Council.)
In spite of the great number of ac-
cidents which have resulted from gaso-
line explosions, drivers and garage
workers continue to do things which
endanger not only their own lives, but
also the lives and property Of others.
1t seems needless to caution against
the use of matches, cigars, cigarettes
ana other open flames near gasoline
or near oil-soaked rags and clothing.
In drawing or pouring gasoline from
one contniner to another, static cleo
tric sparks may be developed. It is
advisable always to keep the two con-
.ainers in contact with each other, or
to attach n chain to the pouring con-
tainer, which will maintain the con.
tact This will lead off the electric
charge and prevent sparkling.
Sparks often result from striking to.

Never use water on a gasoline or oil
fire; it will spread the fire. A mix
tuIe of sawdust and soda (about ten
pounds Of bicarbonate Of soda to a
bushel Of sawdust) is good to put out
oil fires. Sand IL also used effectively.
The drip pan, side pans and car in
general should be kept clean and free
from excessive oil. If present, exces
sive oil may do much to spread the
flames in case Of fire.
If extension cords are used for port
able electric lights, it is necessary to
guard against electric shock and fires
resulting from electric causes. It is
therefore advisable to use vapor-proof
fittings, keyless socket, lamp en-
closed in vapor-proof globe and fur
ther protected with rigid case to pre-
vent breakage. It is also advisable to
have armored cable instead Of ordinary
electric cords. This should be kept in
good condition.
When it is necessary to jack up the
car and get underneath, be sure the
car is held up securely. Be especially
careful if any Of the wheels have been
removed. Block the other wheels t,
keep them from moving. If the sup

Of that great commonwealth. Lots Of
times after he became governor prob
lens came up that looked difficult for
this Vermont farm boy. There were
times when the wise politicians said he
was killed, politically. But he wasn't,
and why,
"Because when he believed in .
thing, he believed in it because it was
right and nothing could change his
mind. The people recognized quickly
that they had selected statesman and
not politician to the governor chair,
man who had the courage of his
convictions, man who could not be
pulled away from the course he be
lievedI to be right. There is great
lesson there for you kiddies. Find out
what is right in this world and then
stick to it. It is always the best
policy.
ESQ you see, kiddies, this boy Of the
soil, this real farmer boy who loved
his country and who stood for all
those things that are honest and clean
and who worked hard, is the sort OF
boy to try to be like"
