take him too literally. You're apt to
push the clutch pedal with your left
foot and the accelerator pedal with the
right, only to be greeted with a roar
ing Of a released and racing motor.
What he means is that you should press
down the clutch pedal and the brake
pedal. II, he wanted to be accurate he
should say, Take your right foot off
the accelerator pedal, move it over to
the brake pedal and then push down
with both feet"
He probably doesn't know enough
about cars to remind you that it's nee
esSary to be little faster with the
right foot than with the left, especially
If the road is slippery. 1t is well to

There has always been confusion in
the minds of drivers as to whether the
car should be left in low or reverse
when parked headed downhill but now
the question is settled for number of
motorists because Of that little gadget
known as the backing light. If you
leave the gears in reverse Of course
that little light goes on glowing, only
to pull down the battery.
Under no conditions use modern
gasoline for cleaning purposes, unless
you are sure it is a brand without lead
content and you use it with great care
Previously only the premium gasoline
carried loaded fuel; now most of the
regular gas contains it, The great
danger in using any kind of gasoline
for cleansing lies in the fact that it
is more explosive than dynamite. A
particularly hazardous thing to do is
to clean with steel wool, using gasoline
as the cleansing agent. The slamming
of door or the spark from a shoe
nail striking the floor may be sufficient
to cause trouble.

land, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland
and Maine, strengthened laws already
existing.
Several Provinces Of Canada enacted
the legislation, with the result that 1t
is now in effect in every jurisdiction
Of the Dominion, with the exception
Of the Province of Quebec.
The A. A. A. model bill was favorably
discussed by several legislatures where
it was not possible to secure its final
passage because of the urgency of fiscal
and economic problems, but where early
passage of the legislation Is regarded
as a foregone conclusion.
"At the current rate Of progress we
may reasonably expect that safety re-
sponsibility legislation will be in effect
throughout the entire Dominion of
Canada in a very few years." Thomas
P. Henry Of Detroit. Mich. president
of the American Automobile Associa-
ton, declared He continued:
The legislation is now in effect In
81 of our States which contain close
to 60 per cent of our motor vehicle
registration. It is in effect in nine
Provinces of Canada, which contain
close to 80 per cent of the registration.
mo State that adopted the model
bill has taken a backward step. Expe-
rience with the legislation, particularly
in those States and Provinces of Cana
da where it is efficiently administered,
affords conclusive proof that it is
achieving its objectives.
Bills for compulsory automobile in
surance. along the lines of the Massa-
chusetts law, and bills for compulsory
compensation, along the lines of the
bill put forward by the Special Com
mittee Of Columbia University, were
introduced in many legislatures. But
these proposals made no progress what
soever and their failure to do SO stands
in strong contrast with the widespread
acceptance of the safety responsibility
bill in the period of six years that it
has been before the country"

Street Playing Dangerous.

An extensive study of traffic acci-
dents to school children made recently
by the National Safety Council indi-
Gates clearly the chief reason SO many
youngsters are injured and killed. 1t is
because, in spite Of school training and
parental injunction. they persist in
playing in the street.
A dozen large cities report their
student accidents to the council. Dur
ing the Arst seven months of the last
school year, schools in these cities re-
% deaths. Only four of the fatali-
ties occurred while the victim was on
his way to or from school. The others
were largely the result of street play.
During the Summer vacation. of course,
the hazard is infinitely greater.
There's suggestion for motorists in
these figures. The youngsters should
not play in the street, of course, but
there they are and drivers must act
accordingly. The street is their play
ground, their base ball diamond, their
foot ball gridiron and their skating
rink. Their minds are on their games
not on the traffic hazards, and since
they will not stop to think, the driver
must do their thinking for them.
Eastern Shore Ferries.
For the benefit of motorists wishing
to drive along the Eastern Shore OF
Maryland Delaware and Virginia with
out taking the long land route through
Elkton, the following timetables for the
ferries out Of Annapolis during the
Summer are printed:
Between Annapolis and Claibourne-
Leave Annapolis 8 am, l pm. and
pm. Returning, leave Claibourne 10
am. 3 pm. and 7 pm.
Between Annapolis and Matapeake-
Leave Annapolis am, 11:15 am.
pm, 4 pm, pm. and 8 pm. Re-
turning, leave Matapeake TBS am,
1925 am, 1885 pm, $40 pm, $40
pm. and 7:20 pm.
The Claibourne route is the longest
ferry route, and obviously the shorter
land route. with Matapeake being just
the opposite.
