Traffic congestion isn't entirely a

advantages and disadvantages OF
traffic delays and has reached the
conclusion that motordom may be far

loss. A study OF the situation, he
says, showed him that many of the
window displays would pass un-
noticed by motorists We're they able
to spin over the city streets at the
rate they travel over the open road.
Traffic congestion" Mr.. Prender-
gast said, may be an asset in dis
guise, provided it does not exceed
healthy normal. I have talked
with a number of business men who
have loudly condemned congestion

would otherwise have remained com

HOLDS CAR OWNER
MUST STUDY AUTO
Few Appreciate Full Merit of
Modern Devices, Chrysler
Dealer Says.

This is tho day of perfection In
ownership, in the opinion of Whitney
Leary, local Chrysler dealer. The
point has been reached, he says,
where further perfection of the auto
mobile itself depends largely upon
further perfection in ownership and
use Of the new cars.
According to Mr.. Leary, at least %
per cent of the virtues of any modern
automobile are wasted through the
owner drivers failure to appreciate
what his car is capable of offering.
with q little better understand
ing of the CLUTCH" he points out, lit
would be possible TO put this unit of
the car in a class with those articles
that are now regarded as being rea-
sonably perfected. In the old days
clutches were big and strong, and
accordingly difficult to abuse. But
their strength was handicap to the
rest OF the car. In order to spare
the drive and the rear axle a more
gentle type of clutch has come into
use, but with it has come a marked
tendency toward clutch abuse on the
part OF the driver. BY simply han
ding the newer clutches with a lit
tie consideration the results of the
newer type would be two-foid, and
the clutch as a unit would be virtually
trouble PROOF.
"Cars are capable of delivering
much more speed than they are giving
as a. general rule. This does not mean
that the driver should drive 60, but
simply that he should avoid those
conditions that make forty seem like
the cars top speed. Attention to
the valves, the carburetor, the timing
and fabrication would make many a
drivers top speed seem like a mod
crate speed for the car itself.
1T is generally recognized that
motorists are not getting all the
gasoline mileage their cars are cap
able of delivering, but failure to take
action in this matter has lead to
general ignoring of the fact that tires,
oil, paint and parts can give far
greater service than owners now per-
NIT them too.
Perfection is always the improve
ment that is just beyond. At the
present time motorists are asking for
certain things which they do not
realize are already incorporated in
the new models. In order to avail
themselves of these 1t is first neces-
sary to take steps to understand them.
1t is, therefore. the day of perfection
in car ownership. After that it will
be time enough TO talk about further
improvements in the automobile. Too
many Improvements to motor cars
have been merely a license to the car
owner to overlook the Importance

nothing of licensing a machine that
is half dead. Some Of the motor
vehicle departments are strict to the
point of insisting that new car reg
istered have two headlights, an ap-
proved tail light and the various fit
ments designed for the safety of the
public, but all of them are lax to the
point of being willing to license a
car that may have nothing but the
outward appearance of a safe steer
ing gearJor a useful set of wheels.
NO credit Is due the people who
can make popular priced automobiles

cause personal and public safety Is
involved. 1t is no different than try
ing to run the car until the brake
lining is threadbare."

of the suction through the carburetor
makes it difficult to hear.
A good method of locating the leak
is to proceed as follows: Remove the
screws which fasten the carburetor
to the engine, cut piece of card
board large enough to replace the
gasket which is used at this point,
but do not cut a hole in it. Then re-
place the carburetor with the card
board between 1t and the engine.
Then when the engine is turned over
the suction will be through the vacu
UNI line only. and the leak will be in
dicated by the Kissing sound.

FIXING CAR AGE
FACTOR FOR SAFETY
Buick Dealer Suggests Way to Cut
Down Number of Accidents
on Highways.

Placing an age limit on automobiles
in service would help to cut down
the number of accidents, in the
opinion of Stanley Horner local Buick
dealer.
Too many people, he says, are try
ing to break mileage records at the
expense of the public's safety.
Old age in the case of the automo-
bile is highly respected by the Wash
ington automobile dealer, but he also
holds that thousands of cars in
service have passed the margin of
safety built into their parts when
new, and that the last long mile may
be the one without the smile"
Much credence is given this view
of the matter because of the radical
decrease in junking of cars during
1924. there being more than a half
million fewer cars scrapped than dur
ing the year previous. Others be-
sides Mr.. Horner have indicated that,
owing to the increasing neglect of
the average car, the decrease in
junking of cars means that there are
more old cars in service.
I'VE would not think of licensing &
an automobile that was only half
finished" he declares, yet think

Turn east at the Lumber piles.
You jog left here, you jog right there,
Cross X. r. at Mandalsy,
At set of sun-oh, boy, you've done
Three hundred and one today!
You hit the hay at Slumbertown.
You're up at the break of dawn;

You grab an egg and are gone.
Follow the poles to Jimsonvil1e,
Turn north at thirty one three;
Go down the hill to Mausys Mill,
Jog left at the willow tree.
You find Main Street everywhere,
There are Brosdways by the score;
Signs welcome you, signs say adieu-
Then the Open Road once more
You halt at Daubenspeck's Garage
For gasoline, oil and air:
You grab a bite-jog left. jog right
And the Guide Book says you're There!

The book that made a joy parade
And bsnisbed your signs with smiles.

 NAVAL HEADS

WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 30. (P) Before the Aircraft Board, Mitchell placed the responsibility of the Shen- andoah disaster and the failure of the PIN No. g to reach Hawaii, directly on the heads of the navy department.
 He said the sending of the Shenan- doah to the middle west was "a direct violation of the law" because in peace land activities belong to the army.
 Arrangements for the PIN No. 9, said Mitchell, looked like the work of some "bungling amateurs"
 General Mitchell severely criticised the work of arranging equipment for the navy contingent Accompanying the MacMillan expedition, declaring flag rant mistakes were made. These three aeronautical events made it impossi- ble for airmen to remain silent, said the General
 He also charged the Shenandoah was not equipped with parachutes. "This," said Mitchell, lis like sending ship to sea without lifeboats." He said engineering data showed the PIN g could not reach Honolulu without re- fueling enroute, and also that the air planes sent to the Arctic were built for the tropics and along the Atlantic coast, yet officers in charge expected them to give satisfactory service.

JEWELS MADE i. OF RUBBER
 SEASIDE FAD

LONDON, Sept. 30. (P)-Rubber jewels. Earrings, bracelets, rings, necklaces and pendants-of rubber! This is the very latest of English sea- side resorts. For rubber rules the bathing beach,
 At first, before the effect of the de fusion is dispelled it is disconcerting to see women assembled at the waters edge at the fashionable bathing hour of II, dressed apparently exactly as they were when fox trotting the pre- vious night. For all the world the beach looks like a ballroom, and more than one spectator has decided he is looking upon group of sleep-walkers!
 Actually English modistes have de- creed that next seasons bathing dres- ses shall look like ball gowns. So they are making sleeveless models, cut with fashionable "godet," are made of rubberized satin. They are so SUD- gle and scanty that they can be fold ed up like a handkerchief and carried in a handbag.
 The costume includes a cloak of fine rubbered material generously collar ed with clipped rubber to simulate fur, dainty sandals of gold and silver-rub- bered satin, rubber scarf and vanity bag and-rubber jewels
 Bathing caps are prettier and more fantastic than ever, and look as tho their designers were thinking of a masked ball. Pointed gold-tipped < crowns flash in the sun, Punchinello hats hobnob with demure Dutch bon nets and Folly caps tinkle with real bells. But the English smart society has gone even further than this.
 None of them look shivery and pink eyed-however cold the water and however long the swim. Everyone of them now takes to the beach rub Der bag filled with waterproof cos l2etics. Among these is an eyebrow and eyelash pencil whose effects the salt water cannot spoil, and special lotion of which the principal ingredient is the white of an egg-which leaves powderly bloom upon the face which the seawater does not impair.
