Good Roads Notes

FSSF<S<<%<<<|<<S<<Ft ftf<SSfSsSss
States with a well-developed high
way system provide the best farm-to-
market roads.
The average cost throughout the
United States of operating motor We
hicles is something like $3.50 per an
mum per vehicle. This includes insur-
ance, depreciation, garaging or storage
gasoline, lubricants, tires, repairs and
requirements, and drivers salaries.
No less an authority than Thomas
H. Mcdonald, chief of the bureau Of
public roads, states that road tests
have shown that the annual saving in
gasoline alone on the more important
roads, will pay the yearly cost of such
roads.
A study made by Iowa state shows
the difference in cost of maintaining
earth and improved roads. The for
mer require an annual cost of $685.
600 a mile for each 500 cars, while
the good roads cost $20,650 mile for
the same number of cars.

Tesla Turns to Mors

Nikola Tesla, the inventor whose
work has been very important in the
electrical world, has turned his spec
ulations to Mars. He says life on the
planet Mars may be from one to ten
million years older than on the earth
He also thinks the hope of communL
eating with the planets is not an idle
one, but merely awaits the invention
Of proper apparatus, based on the
earth's frequency of vibration, which
he places at lit per second.

Old Theory Shattered

Prof. Franz Wutz of Germany has
collected what he calls newly found
facts about the Hebrew Bible. He has
with his claims shattered the old
theory that the GrGek-Alexandrian
translation of the Old Testament
known as the Septuaginta. is derived
from original Hebrew text. He says
the Septuainta is largely reproduc
ton of Hebrew words written with
Greek letters and that as early as 200
B. G. Jewish scholars utilized Greek
Hebrew texts for their translations
into Greek. His claim opens up an en-
tirely new vista on old biblical litera-
ture.

GOOD MANNERS
IN MOTORING
Connecticut Commissioner
Stocked Sees Need Of
Code of Ethics.

That the present lack Of good man
ners In motoring calls for a code of
ethics to be observed by automobile
drivers, Is the belief of Robbins B.
Stoeckel, commissioner of the Con
necticut state department of motor
vehicles, whose views on this SUBJ
ject are being sent to the country
wide membership of the National
Safety council. Mr.. Stoeckels sug-
gestions are intended to impress mo-
torists with the Importance of courtesy
to fellow drivers and pedestrians alike.
His advice should not only help to
prevent accidents but should keep
some motor operators out Of trouble.
Importance of Courtesy.
ITO be a good driver, in the terms
Of applied ethics, is to be a person
of good manners, truly an altruist,
ready to see and appreciate the prob
lens of others, to make proper al
lowances for them and to exercise
even a little more patience, care and
consideration than is actually called
for by the letter Of the law" declares
Commissioner Stoeckel's bulletin.
Pointing out that there are certain
actions which are so obviously bad
manners that it becomes a source of
wonder how any person can bring
himself to commit one of them, Mr..
Stoeckel cites examples, such as:
Driving an automobile through wa
ter or mud so as to splash same upon
pedestrians, common pastime with
some motorists who have peculiar
ideas Of what constitutes joke.
Failing to give proper warning to
a pedestrian or other user of high
way. Even animals should receive
reasonable notice.
Neglecting to give proper attention
to headlights, thus often causing In
convenience and danger to others.
Disobeying the instructions received
from traffic officers and trying to steal
a few feet of space, instead of re-
naming in the proper spot, a practice
that not only annoys pedestrians and
other motorists but which is danger
ous
Starting an argument with the traffic
officer is not only bad etiquette but
is counting trouble with the law.
The expert driver must tone down
his skill by not swiftly weaving in
and out Of a moderately moving
stream Of traffic.
A common offense against road
etiquette is committed when motor
car operator places his car at a cross
Ing SO as to obstruct pedestrian
traffic, thus compelling pedestrians to
walk around his machine
Exercise of Kindness.
In conclusion, Commissioner Stock
ell says:
"The exercise of kindness to others,
consideration and true courtesy will
prevent any operator from getting a
wrong attitude of mind for driving in
traffic. Any operator who loses his
temper, who becomes sulky, or is alb
normal from any one of many differ
ent causes is unfit to drive because his
automobile provides a medium of ex-
preston for his personality. If that
personality is upset, he is bound to
make trouble for himself or for others,
generally for BOTH"

France Seeks Water POUer

Being dependent upon foreign
sources for one-third of the coal con-

People do not like the necessity

when they need him they are only
too glad to have him come. But if
