One of the compensations in buying
a car is the fact that your friends Will
concede you have at least done some
thing on time.
Gaping at the car abreast Of yours
at an intersection has its dangers, as a
woman whose car coasted ahead into q
pedestrian now realizes. She was look
ing so intently at the car beside her as
to mistake the forward rolling Of her
car for the backing up Of the other.
There's one woman at least who under
stands Einstein's relatively.
One of the latest things in equipment
for the tour is the type Of windshield
wing known as q deflector It can be
adjusted so as to direct air into the car,
although it can perform the job Of
DETECTING air equally as well
The other evening while attending a
preview of one Of the new talkies be
suddenly go on the loose in another
mans car. She wanted speed and
plenty Of it. Up went the speedometer
dial to 10 as he tore along the road In
the cool Of the evening, top back and
windshield folded forward.
What's wrong with this picture?
Briefly, I'd say the windshield should
be folded up. There Is more wind re-
sistance with it down and constant risk
Of being blinded by one Of the millions
of bugs that inhabit the evening air
along the road.
So many commands to stop along the
road have been hold-up ruses the aver
age woman Is justified in being extra
cautious. One way to size up the situa-
ton, however, is to look for the oncer 8
motor cycle. He would not be likely to
walk along the road.
One woman makes 1t a rule when
stopping to raise the windows on the
side of the car being approached and
lock the doors. She keeps the car in
second gear. This gives her an oppor-
tunity to look the stranger over and get
away quickly If necessary.
Twenty years ago any motorcade was
| front-page news. Daring pioneers jour-
neyed for days over what the modern
motorist considers a good days run
Those early tourists parades were q
mans game, but times have changed
and today the motorcade for women has
Just started to flourish. Recently q
group Of women drove from Philadel-
| phia to Washington, the stunt being
so successful plans are under way for
a more extensive motorcade OF fnery to
Montreal.
There should be lot Of bubbles will

DETOURS INCREASE
Can Be Avoided by Planning Al
ternate Routes.

Efforts to speed up highway con-
struction as a means of relieving un-
of detours on highways throughout the
country and motorists should plan their
trips to avoid the delay and annoyance
they cause, according to the District of
Columbia Division of the American
Automobile Association.
The A. A. A. declared that there are
at least $500 detours now in existence
on the main highways Of the country
and additional hundreds on State and
local roads.

important highways, can be avoided
by the use Of alternate routes"

Slowness Provoking.
Haven't you gone out for a
drive in the country any after
noon and found yourself behind
a string of cars led by some gent
proceeding at Is miles an hour,
whose main idea seems to be to
view the scenery? That may be
all right for him, but what about
you back there in the exhaust,
poking along at speed you do
not like, which you know will not
get you anywhere? The same
principle applies in city traffic.
Raise the speed limit, clamp down
hard on the reckless driver and
let traffic go a little faster and a
little smoother.
The American Automobile As
ISOLATION tells us, following
survey of traffic accidents in
Washington, that SO per cent Of
all fatal motor accidents in 1880
occurred between the hours of 4
and pm. At the same time the
association urged motorists here
to exercise more caution in driv-
ing at twilight and to be sure to
switch on their lights during that
in-between time elapsing between
daylight and dark.
I'm the early evening hours"
the association said, "the motorist,

| friendly glances. One woman waits
while the other turns. Each driver goes
her way without further fuss.
Now for that other intersection. There
is an identical situation, except that the
exchange Of friendly glances Is missing.
When one driver turns left the other
runs her car squarely into the turning
machine There Is a grinding Of crum-
bling steel neither car being able to pro-
coed on its own power. A scene
follows.
Surely the face with smile wins.
One Of the meanest places in driving
experience Is the light-controlled inter
section at the top Of hill. 1t Is diff
cult to see cars coming up over the
other side, and II you make left turn
, without extra precautions you are apt
to court a collision.
While do not recommend skidding
as a prerequisite to experienced driving
I have always been of the opinion that
no driver need consider a skid as o
reason to give up trying to learn 70
master driving. I am very glad to be
supported in this belief by a recent
letter from a woman who recalls a mid
winter experience that is a little re-
freshing on these warm days.
Driving home on one Of those snowy
days when an inch Of snow covered
patches of ice," she writes, II skidded,
and the impact with the curb sent me
flying up the 4-foot terrace. Being q
new driver, was driving slowly, but
felt II I pulled the emergency brake I
would careen over and back. So I
drove between trees about so feet on
| top Of the terrace then down to the
street. I slid across the roadway.
slowly using emergency brake and shut
ting off power, as that spot OF the road
was q long, uncovered patch of ice. The
steering wheel was slightly bent, but
nothing broken except my nerves for a
few days. Nothing bothers me after
that experience"
When caught in a skid, incidentally,
It seldom is advisable to use the hand
brake, since that operates only on the
rear wheeS or indirectly on them
through the propeller shaft. Also it is
well to avoid switching of the engine.
since frequently the car can be brought
out Of skid by applying a little power.
II the wheels can be kept In motion.

The way it thunders blusteringly and then
drips few drops from some empty coming
back from the Winslow country, reminds us
of the old desert rat Clouds that herald a
thunderstorm gathered over the edge of the

been watching the picture people turned
hopeful eyes toward the sky. Keene COM

Good Times and Old Times
(Star, Elkton, Maryland)

worth while editorial selected by the National Editorial
association
notwithstanding the period Of depression
which has engulfed every section of the
country within the past several years, there
are still some who can or fancy they can,
catch glimpse of the silver lining of this
dark cloud of business adversely.
Thanks we say to those citizens who have
faith in the future. These are the folks
who keep things moving. Faith is won
derful virtue and the lack of it would have
long since wrecked the nation yes the world,
and possibly the civilization which those who
have lived in 1881 to witness would have
dropped completely into collapse Sometime,
and possible it is not many months away,
there will be a return to normal conditions;
factories will be running full time once
more, money will find its way back into the
channels of commerce and trade, and the
dinner pail which has in some sections been
empty so long will once more be filled.
Even with the hardships which many have
undergone tits doubtful if there are any who
would like to see the order of things turned
back 80 or more years and a new start made
from pOlnC CndI lar UoCh III Ilo past AhOh0
has been talk, and lots of it recently, OF bur-
densome taxes of extravaganza in govern
ment and lack of confidence in the business
world. Yet no one would want to see con-
ditions as they were 80 years ago. Letyour
memory run back over the period of the
ushering in of the 90s. How many automo-
biles were there then in this country? How
many miles of improved highways? How
manv homes had a radio or boasted OF an
electric refrigerator? How many housewives
used vacuum cleaners or prepared meals by
electricity or gas?
While there are those who talk OF the re-
turn of the good old days and times, how
many people living today and who have ex-
perienced the pleasures of modern inventions
would want to forget about those conven-
fences as though they never existed, and re-
turn to the methods of the so-called good
old days? Few, if any, we venture, would
agree to such a thing. Let US rely on that
faith that has builded the greatest nation IN
the world to bring us out of the present cha
otic conditions and return to better times
as we'll as good times.

CITY FATHERS HAVE LONG AND HOT SESSION:
 FINANCE DIFFICULTIES

Eloquent, fiery and cracking outbursts of oratory punctuated Monday nights regular session of the City Council, a three hour affair.
 The Territorial Board of Edu- cation threw an awful jOl in to Seward, and probably many other Alaskan towns if the truth be known, when. during the re- cent session of the Legislature, it failed to consider the financial standings of municipalities when, with one bold stroke of the pen, the committee crossed out the paragraph in the good book which had given back to mun'>!rall- ties 80 per cent of expenditures on text books and school room equipment. The only rebate now to Alaskan towns from the Ter |ritory is from teachers.
 To the town of Seward it means la loss of approximately $2,000, ex- plained President w. c. Erwin, of the Seward School Board, who was notified of the new rulina n the last mail from Juneau and who, in turn, imparted the sad news to the councilmen last night. From that point on all else was forgotten; the council chamber became pregnant with ideas, suggestions and solutions. The grand finale came with resolu- ton being passed under suspend ed rules in which the new ruling was, perforce, accepted, but under protest. It is hoped a deficiency bill may be presented to the 1883 legislature and refund granted. The city will now ask the court for an order to sell certain lots acquired from last delinquent tax and assessment notice.
 Reports from the Seward Gen. eral Hospital and SchOo4 Boards: were received, read, and ordered filed. The council voted the local Post of the American. Legion vote of thanks for undertaking and carrying through to a suc- cessful completion, improvements to the Seward General Hospital grounds

ST JOSEPH'S CHOIR
 MUSICAL PROGRAM
Rehearsing for Entertain- ment to Be Given on
 Sunday, Nov Is
AT PARISH HALL

Lithuanian music lovers will be treated to two brilliant musical programs to be sponsored by the St Joseph Catholic church choir under the direction of Organist Alexander Aleksis. The first pro- gram will be a large concert, con- sisting of 60 choir members and four brilliant Lithuanian artists from New York, will be staged Sum- day evening, November 18th, at the new St Joseph's school audi torium. It is expecter to be the best Lithuanian concert to ever be sponsored in the New England section.
 Rehearsals for a two-act oper- etta named Sylvia" are now un- derway at the old St Joseph's hall, twice a week, on Tuesday and Fri day nights. The entire St Joseph's choir will also participate in this large opperetta, with the players cast to be named probably this week, during the rehearsals. Music for the operetta was written by W. Rhys-Herbert, and English words by Maude- Elizabeth Inch. Translation into Lithuanian lang uage was written by Rev John Kripas, new curate at St Joseph chvrch, and Organist Aleksis. The op,retta will be staged sometime next February, and it is also ex- pected to exceed outhe operettas to be staged in this city.
