BY FREDERICK C. RUSSELL.

DAYING no attention to highway
- warning signs is an easy way to
keep from growing old.
Tires and brakes have been featured
to such an extent it isn't any wonder
the average motorist has nearly for
gotten the importance Of fabrication
in the safety scheme Of things. Ina
bility to shift gears that are strangled
with too heavy lubricant may be the
cause Of an accident some cold day.
Low temperatures prevent proper
movement Of oil in many vital parts
of the car unless that lubricant Is
suitable for conditions. Much brake
failure and considerable lack of
equalization in braking are directly
traceable to rusting of parts that ask
only for ordinary oiling. Be sure to
see that your cars steering assembly
obtains the lubricant it needs. Don't
let any one grease the front wheel
bearings by packing the hub caps and
screwing them on, as this simply
forces old grease into the front brakes.
Few service men look to see that the
brake shoes release properly. A little
oil where the shoes hinge will save
uneven wear on the brake lining and
the many dangers that follow when
brakes are out of equalization.
Modern hub caps can and often do
make an alarming noise When
woman asked me what caused strange
rafting sounds in her car removed
the hub cap and did a presto-chango
act with the noise. BY pressing the
f1anges of the wheel outward little
the cap snapped back into place
tightly enough to stop rattling.
One of the odd things about service
on cars is the fact that often after a
thorough job car needs to go right
back into the shop again. OF course,
there are plenty Of exceptions, but
Just want to point out the risk in
assuming that because the car has
been to the shop 1t doesn't need to
return for some time.
Recently a service man succeeded In
popping up a customers motor 10
point where she drove faster in traffic
as we'll as on the open road. Before
she had this work done the brakes
had seemed quite satisfactory, but
after the Job she realized she needed
to 90 back for new lining and more
careful adjustment.

Helpful Hints Cleaned
For Milady's Motoring
Inability to Shift Gears That Are Strangled
With Too Heavy Lubricant May
Cause Accident

An actual letter from woman
motorist raises the question as to how
many miles her car should go on a
quart Of oil. There is no answer, Of
course. Oil mileage varies widely with
different drivers and varying driving
conditions. Ordinarily a modern
engine after the breaking-in period
should run about 1000 miles without
calling for additions to the crankcase,
but there are many conditions that
might cause wide variations from this.
I have often seen owners run 1000
miles without changing oil or adding
any, but what registered as oil in the
crankcase was largely diluent. This
was due to overlooking the motor for
frequent starts and to condensation
due to heating the engine and allow
ing it to cool of for the many times
the car was run a short distance and
then parked. Oil mileage will drop
materially If the car is operated at
speed, especially if the driver is erratic
to the point of taking her foot off
the accelerator pedal too frequently
when slowing down from speed.
Your engine will be better lubri-
Gated in the Winter If you store it in a.
heated garage and try not to park it
out in the cold. There will, accord
ingly, be less dilution with raw gasoline
in cranking and less condensation of
hot vapors in the crankcase when the
motor chills.
One OF the most interesting facts
about automobiles Is the difference in
the way many Of the same make and
year operate. Some observers say this
is due to the fact that production cars
naturally vary in the accuracy with
which they are put together, but am
more inclined to believe this Is due to
the way cars are driven. I have Just
had very favorable ride in a car
which had previously considered un-
satisfactory just because two demon
stration cars of the same make had
given anything but good accounts of
themselves. So If there's anything in
my theory, just assume that you can
make your car better than the aver
age. The proof of the theory seems
TO be the observation that many dem
onstration cars do not run especially
well. They are too greatly handi-
capped by poor driving.
The only way to be sure parking
space is ample for the car is to
measure it against the length Of the
car when passing it. Most drivers rush
by and then look back wonderingly.
1t will simplify matters to come to q
full stop beside the space. II there is
a margin Of space Of about four or
five feet you can park easily. Drive
up parallel with the car ahead Of the
space, cut the front wheels and start
to back up. Most Of the trouble here
is due to not driving up abreast of
the other car.
1t hurts to buy more gas when you
are saving your pennies for afternoon
tea, but now that colder weather is
here remember that having the gas
tank full means running less risk of
having water in the gas. A half
empty gas tank offers more oppor-
tunity for condensation. Any car that
is stored in heated place in Winter
will collect more water in the tank
because Of alternate heating and
chilling. This is unavoidable, but you
can lessen it by keeping the tank well
filled.

DICKENS STORY
TELLING ABILITY
is REMEMBERED
NebraSkan Once Worked in
London Residence of
Great Author.

NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., March
2.-Fred Hitler. who perhaps is the
only person Is America to have been
intimately acquainted with the
household of Charles Dickens, to-
day recalled the great English nov
elist as an adept spinner OF yarns. "
Mr.. Hitler. now a6 and secretary
Of the Nebraska city board of edu-
cation, as a youth of 10 years was
a member of the Dickens house
staff at the time the writer was
producing The Life of Our Lord, a"
which is TO be published for the first
time, starting Monday.
: He looked forward eagerly to
reading the Biblical versions which
Mr.. Dickens wrote exclusively for
his children. Although Mr.. Hitler
was privileged to sit with the family
before the fireplace to listen to MS
master tell stories, this masterpiece
was reserved for private family as
Semblies.
Dickens, Mr.. Hitler recalls, was
an incompatible story teller, often
spinning yarns" drawn from ex-
periences of his poverty-stricken
youth His family and servants
comprised the audience gathered
about the democratic fireplace on
long winter evenings.
AS a youth, Mr.. Hitler was with
a London firm that did work at the
Dickens home. He served as a foot
man. One of his tasks was cleaning
the great study where the master
composed such pieces of literature
as David Copperf1eld. Pickwick
Papers. A Tale of TWO Cities and
Oliver twist.
Overhearing the master tell of a
wonderful new country. America,
which Dickens had toured in 1857
and 1858. Mr.. Hitler decided to emf
CRATE He left the Dickens home,
came to America. where he settled
first in New England. He worked
his way to the Nebraska prairies, to
# Kearney, then a frontier post.
Later he came here.
Much of Dickens storehOuse Of in
formation, Mr.. Hitler says, was
drawn from his experiences as a
reporter on London newspaper.
Mr.. Hitler is not undecided as to
his favorite author. He can point
proudly to one Of the most complete
Dickens libraries in the state.
