HINTS TO WOMEN
WHO DRIVE CARS
Attend to Business in Hand
Is Advice of an Auto
motive Engineer.
tBy ERWIN GREER, President Greer Col
lege of Automotive Engineering. Chicago.i

tBy ERWIN GREER, President Greer Col
lege OF Automotive Engineering. Chicago.i
It Is to be confessed, at the begin
ming. that my discourse is not directed
at all drivers, but at comparatively
small number Of motorists with driv-
ing experience which should have
taught them better, whose handling of
their cars leaves, in my opinion, some
thing to be desired,
Ladies, don't loll. 1t is distressing
to see even mere man sprawled
out behind a steering wheel, but far
more so in the case of a woman.
The woman who holds herself well
has a way of making a good I'M
preston wherever she may be, and
this applies equally whether she Is
driving car or sitting at dinner
table.
What Men Will Think.
Don't take advantage Of the fact
that you are woman, because,
though most men drivers will make
the wrong, they will think the less Of
you while they do so. And there are
some men who will insist upon their
rights" as motor car drivers. Should
you encounter this last named species
there is likely to be a crash.
Don't think about the possible Inn
preston you may be making upon 9TH
er road users. Attend strictly to the
business in hand. There still exists
In the minds of a good many people
an idea that II Is not safe for women
to drive automobiles. Do your best
to destroy tails false impression by
handling your car with care and con-
sideration for others.
( Don't imagine that other drivers will
unnecessarily stare at you. If they
do, 1t will be not because they are
admiring you, but because you have
done something that has made them
doubtful of yoar ability to drive. Show
them that you are mistress of the art.
DON'T Be Careless.
Don't shave things Leave that
trick to the barber. Good drivers give
other vehicles clearance.
Don't drive carelessly over wet
streets. A hole full Of water may not
mean much to you, but to the pedes-
trian who receives in his face the wa
ter elected from the hole by your
tire, 1t Is matter of moment-damn-
able moments. Remember the time
that you were spattered with mud.
And If you must speed, buy rae
ing car. Those things were built es-
pecially for people who have nowhere
to go and who want to get there in
hurry.
Now pass this little article on to
friend husband-that he, too, may read
and gain driving wisdom thereby.

Dancers Emulate Animals

Not everybody who "fox- trots" knows
why that particular dance move
ment Is so called. 1t originated in
the United States, and is supposed to
be descriptive of the fox in search
Of his prey, and it was from the fan
cied similarity Of the dance steps that
the fox-trot took its name. The dance
Is really much-altered descendant of
the old polka which also originated in
America, and which had already led
to quite number of new steps, chris
tened after animals which they were
supposed to imitate-as, for instance,
the bunny hug and the turkey trot.

The Belgian coast vanished in a
soft pastel band, and hard silvery
glitter lay on the water. Travellers
clustered in their deck chairs along
the lee deck-well-cla people wrapped
in raincoats Of subdued hues. Several
young men wore nets to keep their
smoothly brushed hair from blowing
in the wind. Knickerbockers, bright
ribbed wooden stockings, handsome low
shoes, and sickly looking women, were
the dominant note of the party. An

European Nations Solve
Automobile Problems

Percy Owen, the United States gov
ernment's automobile expert, has just
returned to Washington from an In
spection tour of Europe, where he
studied motor and traffic conditions
He Is the chief Of the automotive d.
vision of the Department of Commerce
and one Of the pioneer automobile men
Of the country. Several European
countries" said Mr.. Owen, "have much
to teach America in the way of auto
mobile regulation. The two great cen
tiers, London and Paris, for instance,
have effectually settled the parking
problem by having none. They adhere
to the simple principle that streets and
highways are for traffic and not for
storage. In London there is no park.

Many "Yicars of Bray

The vicar of Bray is said to have
been clergyman of the Church of
Englend, who managed by skillfully
adjusting his religious opinions to the
requirements of the times, to retain
his preferments during the reigns of
Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary and
Elizabeth. Other authorities, however,
make him a subject of Charles II.
James II, William and Mary, Anne and
George l. His name is variously given
as Symon Symonds, Simon Alleyn or
Allen, and Pendleton. However that
may be, the phrase "Vicar of Bray"
has found place in the vernacular,
and is commonly applied to one who
renounces allegiance to his party
whenever he finds his safety or his in
terests imperiled.--Kansas City Times.
