Tremendous Increase Of Past Few

As, GOO, 900 persons will go touring in the
United States and Canada during 1880
points to an increasing need OF sys-
tematic illumination Of our main high
ways in order to take care OF the thou
sands of tourists who will prefer TO
drive by night.
So advises F. J. Fancher Of this city.
He continues:
Proper highway illumination Is one
Of the problems now being given con-
siderable attention by our national traf-
fic experts in view of the growing popu-
larity of long distance touring and OF
the increasing congestion of our high
ways during daylight hours.
Many Of these trafic experts believe
that adequate illumation Of our national
roads will tend to distribute the trafnc
load over the 24-hour period Of each
day, because of its tendency to increase
night driving among the touring class.
In addition, and not least important,
they believe that such illumination,
properly designed and installed. Will
promote greater safety and enhance
property values along such highways,
acting as a deterrent to possible acts
Of vandalism and robbery"

DARK BLUES IN AUTO BODIES

Subdued. Rich. Dieni6ed Colors Lead
Closed Car Schemes. Stysian Proving
Favorite, Combined With Blue Gray.

There are very few grays available In
motor car finishing material that have
any degree Of sophistication In their
color value. Bonsoir gray. dark for
upper, molding and fender treatment
supplies touch Of suave grandeur, es-
pecialIy with the lower body and wheels
in bonsoir gray, light. A silver bronze
stripe will engender an additional SPAR

No range of color schemes for motor
car use would be complete without a
combination in the green color family.
Greens Of the same general hue, but
widely separated chromas, provide In
teresting contrast and desirable har-
mony. Upper, molding and tenders In
dark, lustrous Glen Eagle green, with
body and wheels in English gray. q soft.
light greenish gray, provides Just such
a color harmony.
Black as an integral part Of a color
scheme, in many cases, interrupts the
harmony Of color and contributes little
or nothing to the unity Of the cars

in the same shade as the upper and

this years favorites and looks particu-
larly effective when accented with a
bluish-gray stripe. Wire wheels can
also be finished in blue gray. Black
combines nicely with this blue for
molding and fender treatment.
Colors of the same hue but varying In
value or strength or both are in chro-
matte sequence. Colors Of the same hue
sequence blend perfectly. Attractive
secondary colors In perfect sequence to
blend with Stygian blue In combination
are: Standard blue, Light or cayuga
blue.
Importance Of Brown.
Brown continues as color Of great
importance from the popularity stand
point in the automobile industry.
Although not q beautiful color In itself,
brown softens the appearance Of angular
surfaces and gracefully enhances con-
tours in addition to being color sug-
gestive Of rugged stability and worth.
In stripping the brown car, 1t Is well
TO remember the varying contrast eff
fectiveness of certain colors against
brown. Due to the strong contrast of
orange with brown, it is not essential
to employ so wide stripe Of this color
as would be required with white, pale
gold bronze or vermillion on brown.
Certain tints of yellow-green are soft
and very effective as q stripe on brown
or tan. The width Of a stripe can in
terfere with the balance Of q motor car
color scheme, particularly where the
stripping color is Of high chroma and Of
hue that contrasts with the base
colorS.
It is best to experiment with vari-
colored stripes Of different widths on a
small metal panel, finished In the base
color In order to determine just. which
color and in what width the stripe color
will look best.
Interesting brown color schemes for
the closed car are: Upper, molding and
tenders In deep, rich ziroon brown, with
body and wheels in chateau brown.
Both Of these brown values have a
greenish cast that makes them partic-
ularly distinctive. A greenish-yellow
stripe will make very effective accent
color. Upper, r1olding and tenders In
dark, neutral hardwood brown, with
body and wheels in Sunatra beige. In
view Of the fact that hardwood brown
has maroon content and bleeds through
light stripping material, white or cream
stripes should be avoided. Nassau
orange, gold or silver bronze will prove
effective as stripping mediums.

Advice for Safety.
What may be of great help In

lowing of the advice given by II.
o. Rounds, director of safety and
traffic division of the Detroit Au-
tomobile Club. Before becoming
identified with the motor club Mr..
Rounds was a police sergeant in
the Michigan city. In a letter
sent out to the various members
Of the club Mr.. Rounds asks that
the following be memorized. OF
course there is no good in memo
rizing If the advice Is not obeyed.
Don't rely on your horn at in
tersections; it won't stop the car.
Don't give faulty or incom-
R1cUS SlSL1dlS.
Don't think your brakes are
operating properly-know.
Don't look only to the right at
intersections; traffic proceeds
both ways.
"Don't think that trucks can
stop as quickly as pleasure cars.
Don't rely on your mirror when
pulling away from the curb; look
and signal.
Don't assume that children will
act as grown people will.
Don't back up without the ut
most caution.
Don't take chances at blind
corners.
Don't look at your passengers
or guests or at merchandise dis
played in store windows while
driving.
"Don't rely on the supposed
sanity of other drivers.
Don't forget that occasionally
you are a pedestrian.
Don't force middle-aged walk
ers' to be nimble or wanting In
dignity.
"Don't forget that trolley cars
are on tracks and cannot leave
them to avoid you.
Don't think that another'S
negligence excuses yours.
Should you momentarily omit
one Of the above 'don'ts, then
don't be surprised at the results
obtained"

These figures show that for every
