WARNED OF
DEADLY GAS
Carbon MOnOxide Is Color
less, OdOrless, Tasteless.
Doctor Says

do not depend on your nose To
tell you when your garage is being
filled with deadly carbon monoxide
gas; you cannot smell this gas;
your nose does not know" says DR..
v. A. Chapman of Milwaukee, men,
Der Of the Gorgas Memorial Insti-
tute.
"This deadly gas is manufacture
ed while you are warming up the
motor on cold winter morning
before starting out for the day, or
while you are lying under the car.
doing an odd repair job while the
motor is running. 1t is also being
manufactured by gasoline motors
so frequently used on the farms.
The gas is one of the products Of
combustion or the explosions. and
the poorer the motor is running.
the greater will be the supply of
carbon monoxide being produced.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless,
Odorless and tasteless gas. There
in lies its danger This poisonous
gas may be coming from the en-
haust of your motor in great guam
titles and you will not know it. It
permeates all parts of closed
room to the same extent, if given
sufficient time.
"lhe poison action Of carbon
monoxide is directly due to changes
in the blood which reduce it's oxy-
gen carrying capacity. At the iden-
teal time you are being poisoned
with this gas from your motor, the
lung action increases automatically,
and without your knowledge, you
breathe in more of the contaminat-
ed air in an effort TO get more oxy-
gen. The increase speeds up the
rate Of saturation Of the blood by
the gas. This in turn intensifies
the damage of the oxygen shortage.
You breathe still more rapidly, un-
til the blood has become SO changed
by the poison that it cannot con-
tain or give the necessary oxygen
to sustain life. Just how much the
victim of this poisoning suffers be-
fore death is not known.

Simple Signals
Used by Average
Motor Operator

Have you ever stopped to con-
slider the signal code of the aver
age driver. 1t il very simple
code and not difficult to acquire.
1t follows:
To indicate a right lu-n-stick
out your hand.
To indicate a left turn-stick
out your hand.
To indicate that you are about
to stOp-stick out your hand.
To indicate that you are about
to back-stick out your hand.
To emphasize your cOnversati ion
with your fellow passenger
stick out your hand.
To flick the ashes off your CT
gar-stick out your hand.
This is the generally accepted
code. Under the circumstances,
ii is remarkable that accidents
are not more frequent, although
the present toll in human life
and limb is appalling and steadi-
~ growing.
