The first Wheat Pool elevator

Mr.. Egar declared, "The COM

people Of North Dakota which has
never before existed said Mr.

The car you are driving is pro-
baby capable of a speed of from
sixty to seventy miles an hour
but you cannot use this speed for
any length of time without flirting
with the angels. The modern high
way, while built like a speedway,
isn't a one-way proposition like the
race track. Therefore, the driver
who speeds must always make fire.
quent and nerve racking stops
which cuts down his average time
to a minimum. His speed is far
below that Of the driver who main
tains steady pace hour after
hour.
What is speeding? Since 1t is
the primary cause of a majority of
all automobile accidents, isn't it
about time that it is plainly defined?
great many motorists think
that there is something magicaIly
safe about motoring. when the
speedometer hugs close to 20 miles
an hour. Yet speeding can happen
at any speed.
One driver has discovered that
much can be learned about speed
ing, by driving the car with the
speedometer disconnected. For
the test he secured the services
of a friend who followed him over
a prescribed course, in another car
The driver with the disconnected
speedometer proceeded just as he
would under normal conditions, and
then checked up with the actual
speed record, as noted by the
friend following him. The results
were surprising. Invariably he
drove from D to 10 miles an hour
faster than he thought he was 60
ing.
This was particularly noticeable
In traffic and in going down hill
on the open highway.
An interesting thing happened on
one of these tests. The sudden
appearance of another car, turn
ing in from crossroad, called
for the quickest possible stop. The
driver without a speedometer actu-
ally failed to stop in time to avoid
a collision, just because he thought
he was stopping quickly enough,
and never bothered to reach for
the emergency brake, until it was
too latei
The experiment showed plainly
that the average driver cannot
guess his speed-and that he in
variability goes faster than he thinks.
1t shows that car driver is speed
ing, whenever his conception of
safe stopping distance is less than
the actual stopping distance. Put
ting two and two together, this ex-
pertinent shows that driver who
drives without a speedometer, or
who does not watch his speed
ometer, is speeding-at any speed.

No Trade.in
Problem in India

India Is either q Paradise or the
opposite for the motor car and truck
dealer-according to his point of
view and the stamina of the prod
diets he handles.
This opinion of present day con-
ditions in the tropical empire is
that of A. o. Fray, Dodge Brothers
and Graham Brothers dealer at
Rawalpindi in the northern province
of Punjab, /who has just visited the
factories at Detroit.
"The average dealer In America
would probably consider India a
Paradise when he Is told that we
have practically no trade-in problem
there" Mr.. Fray states.
"The native Hindoo. one of the
shrewdest bargainers In the world,
doesn't trust the dealer to give him
the greatest possible allowance for
his used vehicle as the American
does. He sells his own. and his
craftsmanship Is high pressure for

such as the American would class as
Junk, at unheard Of prices.
Another advantage the dealer in
India has is the Hindoo's readiness
to paw cash with consequent alb
sence of credit difficulties. Hoards
Of rupees saved and hidden away
for years by natives have been
brought to light by the magic appeal
of motor transportation.

Heart-Shaped
Fixtures Catch Stones

The reason for small heart shaped
fixtures placed on the inner side of
the curve at both ends of bumpers
on Packard cars causes much specu-
lation. One automotive expert writ
ing in one of the motor car trade
magazines about unusual appliances
found on automobiles, explained that
the metal, tray-like pieces were de-
signed to keep the bumpers from
springing when striking something.
Actually they are for an entirely diff
ferent purpose and might be called
both courtesy shields and enamel
protectors.
Packard engineers, asked to ex-
plain the attachments, said ii had
been found rear tires of cars pick up
stones on the road, hurl them against
the bumpers from which they some
times richochet against the rear fen
ders, injuring the highly polished
enamel. Oftentimes, too, stones pick
ed up by tires are thrown with much
force against other cars on the road,
sometimes doing considerable dam

ard cars catches any stones which
might be thrown back from the. rear
tires and drops them back to the
road.
