the buster gear group Is brought into
mesh with gears on the two main
Transmission shafts. The effect Is to
make the propeller shaft Of the car
rotate directly opposite to the travel
Of the engine shaft.
Because of the way In which n car
Is made to go backward 1t ought TO be
obvious that there is trouble ahead
for any driver who makes II Q practice
to try to start the car forward while
it Is still backing or to make It back
Up before coming to complete stop in
the forward direction. There Is moth
ing flexible about the gears involved
in the reversing process. The only
reason they don't break when drivers
occasionally do the illogical with them
is because the clutch slips enough TO
dissipate the shock. That puts the
clutch In tight spot, too.

uniformity would greatly reduce the
total cost Of signs and signals to the
municipalities and to the States.
Measure Of Excuse.
"There Is, of course, some measure
of excuse for the exercise of control
by the large cities where responsibility
rests in the hands OF competent en-
gineers who usually cooperate closely
with the State highway departments
and who are thoroughly familiar with
design and application for variety OF
purposes. There is no such excuse,
however. as far as through highways
in small towns and municipalities are
concerned. If lights are needed either
for safety or to facilitate the flow of
srafic, State engineers can well be
relied on to see that they are in
stalled.
The recent decision of the Supreme
Court Of Ohio giving the State High
way Department the authority to erect
traffic lights in towns Of less than S.
900 people served to focus attention
on this problem. With the practical
certainty that the coming session Of
the National Conference on Street and
Highway Safety will adopt a single
code of signs, signals and markings
for rural and urban use, the time is
opportune to consider the Importance
of unity of control as well as unity Of
design and application"

Helpful Hints Cleaned
For Milady's Motoring
Development Of Independent Springing Should
Force Need for Regular Servicing of
Shock Absorbers.

serviced these days may mean running
into considerable front-end trouble
Shock absorbers have been sa integral
part of spring control for years, but
their neglect did not exact so great
penalty.
A bow to the woman who stopped
her car when she smelled faint traces
of gasoline. She evidently reasoned
that with all the skillful insulation be-
tween the driving compartment and
the motor 1t would take considerable
gas leakage to make itself known
Lifting the hood revealed a serious
leak in the gas line.
1t may help you to know that In
event Of leakage around the carbure-
tor q safe course, II some distance from
service station, is to keep going al
a reasonably fast rate. This will serve
to use up the gas that would leak out
at slower speed.
Your blue frieZe davenport will look
passable with blue pillows, but fashion
as well as art suggests the advisability
OF trying something bv way of con-
trasting colors. That's very old stuff
to women who have tastefully fur
nlshed homes, but I'm just passing il
along In a new wrapper to suggest a
bit OF contrast in the furnishing OF
the new car. Especially with tenders
done in the same hue as the body
there Is much to be said for using lap
robe OF some color that will contrast
with the cars general color scheme
And isn't that a tip as to what hue to
select for your Spring outfit?
Isn't l. strange how the woman who
Is so particular about making an ap-
pointment with her hairdresser, even
for a finger wave, will expect a serv-
ice station to accommodate her with
any size car job at any time? It's
just as difficult to pull a man away
from valve job as it is to halt Henri

ties. I'm putting it plainly because
maybe getting this out OF my system
will help put me on more sensible
plane. too. ! am told that many hours
of valuable service time are wasted
each week because owners drive in
without appointments. 1t takes about
IS minutes to explain to an owner
that the shop Is busy. Every body
loses by this process.
Amsng the basic things about cars
which every woman should know Is the
fact that the engine always rotates in
the same direction. II you were to
stand in front of the car so as to crank
the motor you would see that this ro-
tation Is always the same as the hands
Of clock. When an engine reverses
its direction of travel we have what
is known as backfire-a brief upset
in the motors normal course.
How then are we able to make a
car travel backward?
Isn't 1t necessary to reverse the en-
gine to reverse the travel of the car?
Logical questions. Early engineers
asked the same because steam en-
gine is reversed by stopping it and
then running it in the opposite direc-
ton. A gas engine won't function re-
versed because its valves and the spark
would be all out Of time.
Reverse motion IS thus given to the
car through special gearing. 1t is re-
markably simple. A small gear rest
