OF
SPEEDOMETER
AIDS MOTORISTS

Tho prehistoric cave man told
time by a rope of burning grass, the
strands twisted tightly together,
with knots here and there by which
the hours were computed.
If the knots were not made in the
right place the watch was mae
curate, but that was the least of
caveman S troubles. IN those days
time and distance were not impor-
tant. He probably had no theater
appointments to keep; dinner en-
gagements were not Tie social fune-
tions they arc today.
With civilization. however, dis
tance and time have taken more
significant places N the social sys-
TEN. Appointments must be kept on
time and the question OF distance
enters into our everyday lie. so peo-
pie carry watches and equip their
automobiles with speedometers.
"The accurate speedometer re-
lieves the driver, and particularly
the summer tourist on long trips
from untold trouble in finding his
way on strange highways, said Mr..
Pulford, service manager for the De
Soto division of Chrysler Motors, in
q recent interview on servicing the
automobile for summer touring.
'With mileage on road maps set
down in tenths of a mile. the speed
ometer must function accurately.
Yet, many drivers forget this when
leaving their cars at service stations
for inspection before starting on
long trips, The speedometer test
should be one of the principal items
Of inspection. Tourists often are
led astray from important turns in
the highway, the oriver depending
on the synchronization of a faulty
speedometer and an accurate road
map to find his way. 4 the speeu-
omcter is not giving correct reading,
the chances of taking wrong road
are apparent and it may he some
time before the tourist discovers he
has made a mistake.
