Shutters on Radiators
Kept Closed Too Long

The most important precaution to
take in operating motor car during
the winter is to avoid loss of fuel and
injury to the engine through the I'm
proper coordination between the ra-
diator shutter and the radiator heat
indicator.
Many drivers keep their shutters
closed too long in winter driving be-
cause they neglect to observe the
reading of the heat indicator on the
radiator cap. This lack of co-ordina-
ton causes overheating of the engine,
as easily possible in the winter as in
the summer months, with its conse-
quent wastage of fuel and loss of
fuel and loss of power.
On the other hand, If too little OF
the radiator is covered, the engine will
be too cool and there will be resultant
poor carburization, gasoline waste,
crankcase dilution and motor carbon
izing.
Steaming, which often indicates
trouble in summer, cannot be detected
easily In winter, as the steam con-
denses as soon as 1t comes in contact
with the cold air and therefore the
readings of the heat indicator must be
relied upon.

EDUCATIONAL PLAN
BACKED BY LEGION

Plans are definitely under way to
arrange through the American Legion
for an interchange of college students
between the United States and each
of the eight principal foreign coun-
tries with which this nation was as
sociated in the World war
Efforts are being made to obtain at
least eight scholarships in American
universities and colleges to be used
by students from these foreign coun-
tries. 1t was said at national head
quarters of the Legion. Similar ar
engagements are being made by each
of these countries.
Legion officials, according to Ma
tional Adjutant James f. Barton, ex-
pect' to have the plan in operation by
the opening of school next fall so
that the first exchange will be made
at that time
Students to be exchanged will be
chosen through an essay contest on
some subject of International affairs.
The contests will be carried on in
their respective countries by veterans
organizations represented In Fidac.
the interallied veterans federation.
The nine countries entering through
their veterans associations into the
arrangement are. besides the United
States: Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Great
Britain, Italy. Yugo-Slavia. Poland
and Rumania.
Details Of the plan have been laid
before the national officers of the Le-
gion by fsemuel Bolles. past national
adjutant and vice chairman and Sec
rotary of the Legion delegation to the
Fidac congress at Rome Italy The
plan was worked out in definite
way at that congress.
The cost of a scholarship is esti-
mated by Mr.. Boles at approximately
81 800, plus tuition Each student Is
to be obligated to give talks, upon his
return from his scholarship, to the
school children Of his country about
the nation where he studied
An annual award of merit will be
given to that educational institution
of each of the nine countries, accord
ing to Mr.. Bolles. which has included

another plan which is to be carried
out. Awards will be given to those
letters from each country which are
deemed to promote international I'M
derstanding in the most original way.
Efforts are being made under Fidac
leadership to have Armistice day de-
clared legal holiday in each of the
nine nations. Fidac will suggest
uniform program for the observance
of the day each year.

Several Reasons Why 1t
Is Expensive to Speed

The driver who persists in operat-
ing his motor car at high speed may
elude constables and police, says a
writer in the Farm and Fireside, but
he cannot escape from the penalties
which natural mechanical laws levy
upon his car Here are ten reasons
why 1t is expensive, dangerous and
inconsiderate of others TO speed.
Tires last about twice as long on
car that is driven at 10 miles an hour
as upon cars driven at 80 miles an
hour Speeding generates heat, which
is an enemy to rubber.
Driving a car around a sharp corner
at 25 miles an hour does more dam
age to the tires than 200 miles of
straight road work Excessive side
pressure on tires may pinch the tubes,
and it always strains the side walls of
the castings.
High speeds are likely to cause skid
ding and breakage of springs and
steering gear, any of which are dan
gerous when speeding.
In proportion to the mileage OBJ
tanned, high speeds require more gas
oline and oil than moderate rate of
travelling.
Driving a car at excessive speed,
especially over rough roads, subjects
the bearings to enormous strains.
High speed may cause crystalliza-
ton Of rapidly moving metal parts
that are subject to strain, and these
may break at any time without warn
ing.
High speeds interfere with the ac-
curacy of steering, as is shown by the
number of reckless drivers who have
gone over banks and into bitches, es-
pecially on curves.
It is a strain ON the eyes and the
nerves of the driver and also of the
other passengers in the car.
Finally, it is a menace to the pleas
ure and safety of others who use the
road.
The majority of modern motor cars
develop their maximum efficiency with
lowest expense at speeds ranging from
10 to 25 miles an hour, depending on
the make Of car and conditions of the
road

Half Million Dollars
in Legion Relief Work

During the past year nearly half a
million dollars was spent by the vari-
Gus units and departments Of the

GOOD
ROADS
POSTAL SERVICE
is BEING AIDED

The postal service of the United
States is today using more than one
million miles of public roads in the
delivery of daily mail. In delivering
mail to 100000 individuals on rural
routes, 1,2O5,572 miles of highway are
being used every day. Notwithstand-
ing the great increase in mileage COW
cred through the Improvement of
roads, there are more than 100000
persons waiting to be added as soon
as the service can be extended.
These interesting points have been
brought out as a result of an inves-
tigation conducted by the American
Association Of State Highway Officials
to find out who is really using the
highways.
1.-THE Postal department is only one
of the many large users of the high
ways" says the report, and more
firms are turning to the roads as a
means of final distribution for their
products.
1.-THE Importance of the roads in
the modern scheme of transportation
cannot be overestimated, for the tap
roots of trade of many of the large
and medlum-sized companies now ex-
tend down to the smallest commune
ties. This is especially true Of those
corporations which sell small unit
commodities through the mail and
through the small retailer.
Zone of the three elements used by
the federal government In the distri-
button of funds to states for roads Ia
the mileage of post roads used in each
state for rural mail delivery Our in
quiry has brought out the fact that in
the past five years, through the Inn
provement of roads, the Postal de-
partment has been able to add 1850
new rural routes which carry mail to
226,300 families. The general Inn
provement in roads has enabled the
Postal department to lengthen the
mileage of 2,449 established routes.
The report of the association con-
cludes by calling attention to the fact
that ''the ordinary length of rural
route is "a miles, and where routes
are over unimproved roads, this rep
resents an all-day job of delivery, but
road improvement has enabled Uncle
Sam to lengthen many routes and give
additional service to, rural families

USE OF DINNER
is NOT FAVORED
Motor Code to Provide 200
Feet Visibility Is Urged
by Bureau.

Amendments to motor-vehicle laws,
vised their codes, to regulate night
driving headlights so that at all times
the motorist is able to see clearly 200
feet ahead instead of forcing the use
of DINNERS, characterized as danger
Gus, is urged by the federal bureau
of standards of the Department of
Commerce. Illinois, Ohio, Indiana and
Michigan fall into the group Of states
that compel dlmmed lights by passing
motorists on highways, a practice
which the bureau scientists condemn
as dangerous, not alone to the drivers
but to pedestrians as well.
Spotlight Is Favored.
The spotlight, excoriated in and
around Chicago, is recommended, with
proper study of its use. Most of the
eastern states, as well as states west
of Illinois, including Wisconsin, have
adopted this apparently revolutionary
headlight recommendation. In the Dis
trict of Columbia where it has been
in effect since May 3, night motor ac-
cidents have been materially reduced.
Prior to May 8 81 per cent of the total
accidents occurred between dusk and
dawn. Since adoption of the 'ample
driving light" standard, with directed
beams instead of dimmed lamps, the
number has been reduced to % per
cent
Opposes Dimming in Country.
The whole story, according to E. G.
Crittenden, chief of the electrical di-
vision of the big government expert
ment station, lies in intelligent use of
modern devices. He makes no choice
between various makes of motor head
lights now on the market, one type
of which uses plane reflector with
redirecting lenses, the other employ
ing a special reflector with lenses that
spread or bend the light rays down
ward.
"For country driving" says a part
of the bureaus publication on head
lights "dimming the headlights when
meeting another car should be dis
couraged because of the element OF
danger involved. Under normal driv-
ing conditions the drivers eyes are adj
justed for good road Illumination.
When the lights are dimmed, suddenly
reducing the road light, a few seconds
must elapse before the eyes can read
just themselves to the new conditions.
During these few seconds the driver
is unable to see clearly and may col
Tide with the oncoming car, run into
pedestrians walking along the road
side or get off the road into the ditch.
In addition, the lights on the approach
ing car seem unduly bright because
no road. illumination beyond them is
available to reduce the contrast with
the background"

Four Important Factors

Headlight Glasses Must
Be Kept in Right Place

Some of the light dlffusers or devices
designed to redirect the rays of light,
are designed to be effective only when
in a certain fixed position. Vibration
may so loosen the glass in the rim
that the glass will be permitted to
creep around, In which case the whole
scheme fails. Not all headlights have
means for anchorlng the glass perma-
nently, so it is matter for the own
ers attention to see that the glasses
are properly fastened in place. If
screws are used 1t might do to insert a
lock washer under each one.
