DRIVING HELD PRIVILEGE
Operation of Motor Vehicle Is Not
Constitutional Right.

That the driving OF q motor vehicle
has been held by the Supreme Court
to be not a constitutional right but a
privilege that may be granted or re-
voked was the statement made by Nor
gan T. Ryan, registrar of motor vehicles
for Massachusetts, to the New England
Section Of the Society Of Automotive
Engineers.
He says that the law classes the
motor vehicle as dangerous vehicle
and the Legislature has delegated to the
registry Of motor vehicles the power to
grant and to revoke the driving privilege.

Proof that good roads are q paying

point Of view Is shown by an analysis
Of automobile operation costs on vari-
Gus types Of highways according to the
American Road Builders Association.
The average automobile owner may
prefer not to know what his per mile

he surely Is interested in knowing how
much he saves by driving on improved
roads, also the difference in cost of
operating various types of cars and the
savings accruing in each case as the
result Of highway improvement.
Average Expenditures.
From detailed cost records reported
on about 800 automobiles operated in
various parts of the United States, fig-

UnSightlY Signs.

War has been declared by high
way authorities of several States
on the unsightly traffic signs,
erected on metal poles, which dis
figure the landscape on heavily
travelled roads, especially near in
terSectionS.
Robbins B. Stoeckel, commits
sioner of motor vehicles Of the
State of Connecticut, is one of
the leaders in this movement.
1T is a curious anomaly" Mr..
Stoeckel said recently, that,
while the State on one hand, is
endeavoring through active con-
Structive work by the State High
way Department to beautify road
sides and, by enforcement OF the
laws, to remove eyeSoreS, such as
Junk yards and waySide advertlS-
ing signs, it should also be put
ting out other signs Of which the
beauty feature Is, at least, a ques-
ionable one.
Modern methods of handling
traffic require large additional
numbers of markers and signs.
It seems that traffic sign has
20 be rude enough so that the i'm
preston it has upon an observer
is a direction, rather than pleas
ant remark, SO our signs have fast
become, as they probably should,
outstanding from the viewpoint OF
visibility.
I'm modern traffic handling,
these have often been placed to-

of the general appearance OF the
neighborhood. AS the groups Of
signs put up by communities are
admittedly necessary evils, it ap-
pears that some care and thought
ought to be expended upon max

from the beauty standpoint"
The Paris Salon.
The Paris Automobile Salon
which opened this month is
marked by sober decoration and
fewer contrasting colorS in the
automobiles displayed. In all II
automobile manufacturers are eX-
hibiting. About half Of them are
French. Nineteen American COM
panieS are represented, six Ger
man, five English, two Belgian, six
Italian and one Spanish. Black
remains the leading color for au-
tomobile finish as judged by the
$50 cars on display. This is sur
prise, since it was thought that
the show would disclose big step
forward in the brighter color
schemes. After black the color
schemes indicated as most popular
are blue, maroon, green and beige,
in the order named. Some Strik-
ing designs are shown in beige and
ivory, also in gray, brown, yellow
and red. The show is distinct in
its color aspects from the salon
of last year in that less composite
shades are on view. Medium
shades are also absent. The i'm
preston Is that light or dark
shades are the favoriteS, a very
dark blue especially being shown
widely. The new color scheme of
having cars Of the same color all
over with relief of other shades
in filetS on belts seems to be grow
ing in popularity. Colored tenders
are less in evidence. Disc wheels
seem to be the favorite for the
French cars, the proportion being
about twice that of wire wheels.
Plain wooden cloth for upholstery
is seen on a majority Of the cars,
fancy woolens in % per cent. The
upholstery on the remainder is
divided in leather and fabrikoid
for upholstery. These represent
81 per cent of the total.

foods should not be followed by

A baked pudding with a tend

served with a liquid sauce. There
are many varieties of liquid sauc-

ness. STANDARD" cream is an ex-

richness that is suitable for many
types of puddings of pronounced

with eggs are richer and of great

the rule is arbitrary. egg sauces
are usually served with chilled
desserts.
Hard sauce. that rich concoc-
