They are:
Don't slam on the brakes.

1.-THE natural tendency Of the dri-

rison P. Knox, Manager of the Club.
Driving experts agree this is the
wrong thing to do. Instead, the dri-

on keeping the car on the road and
allowing the accelerated motor to act
as a brake in slowing down the We

Quick application Of the brakes
may result in the car overturning.
Releasing the clutch may throw the

CHARACTER BUILDING

Well studied and applied rules of
personal conduct based on broad con-
ceptions of human relationship are
necessary to a we'll ordered mind, as
we'll as good citizenship. In fact,
such rules have constituted very
largely the foundation of the best
minds of all ages. In the early days
Of our colonial and national life
many Of our citizens copied and COM
mitted to memory codes of personal
conduct, and school copy-books until
recently were filed with the finest
excerpts from them. Washington
carried with him as a pocket COM
panion, code which he created from
various sources. Today, there is no
lack OF source material for such a
set Of rules. They ARE to be CLEAN
ed from the writings of the great
teachers and ethical systems of all
ages.

1t is further stated, for the benefit
of drivers who never had experience
with blow-outs, that car always
swerves in the direction of the blow
out; that is, if a left tire is affected,
the swerve will be to the left, and
vice versa. Another good thing for
drivers to remember is to steer in the
DIRECTION of the skid; that is, If the
skid is to the left, steer that way.
The car cannot be brought out of a
skid by turning in the opposite di-
rection.

WALKING

Mans first and simplest form Of
transportation and most healthy ex-
ercise, walking, has almost become
lost art since buggies, bicycles, and
autos put America on wheels.
That more than half of the human
body and muscle structure is devoted
to the movement of the legs and
feet is ample proof that man was in
tended to walk.
The walking record for one mile
is six minutes, twenty-five seconds.
Just for fun time your walking speed
I--thirty-fve steps a minute equals
one mile per hour. The average
walker makes about three miles an
hour or one hundred and five steps
per minute and it takes three times
as long to climb hill as it does to
descend.
Toddling, stepping, amb]ing, stray
Cling, stalking, shutting, strolling,
hiking, tramping, sauntering, pranc-
ing, dancing, jogging, pacing and
running are only variations of walk
ing which is the basic human pedal
movement.
Walking Immediately presents such
topics as, 1.-THE old woman in the
shoe" pirate plank walking; martial
music; S9S steps up Washington
Monument-bad on bad hearts;
treadmill power; Chinese pinvhed
feet; cops on the beat; sleep walker;
Easter parades; Valuation closing
at Frederick-one couple walked
14OO hours without sleep; the 1000
Appalachian Hikers Trail and the
Proposed Peninsula Hikers Hostel
Chain.
| Some people like to walk in the
rain, others like a barefooted stroll
on the beach, but most every one
hears the call to walk as nature puts
on her garments of green and dark
brown, scarlet and gold every au-
tumn.
1t is now Mardi Gras time in the
country and hundreds of people,
young and old, are tramping over the
hills and through the fields getting
close to nature. Here one sees a
| strange plant, a tall tree, and there
la covey of quail is flushed. A rabbit
jumps up and is away, and sly fox
slips across narrow field and dis
appears in the thick underground.
If you happen to be down in Wor-
cester around Snow Hill you might
see a grazing deer, or if walking
across the Harrington Bridge at
Cambridge you might see rock fish
breaking" in the water below.
What you see will depend on where
you go, but there is always some
thing new and interesting whether
you walk through the fields and gay
colored woodland or window shop as
Iyou stroll through the city streets.
Walking was once the Sunday af-
ternoon pastime of the nation, but
walking along the highways has be-
come an hazardous adventure. Ap@
proximately one-fourth of the auto
mobile casualties are pedestrians.
There are ample fields and plenty of
people who would like to join a hik-
ing party. Choose an interesting
place and take along few well con-
cealed hot dogs, hambergers, steaks
rolls, or marshmellows to make the
walking party complete.
Make walking a hobby.

THE PRESIDENT AND AGRICULTURE

Speaking for and in the presence of the Repubi-
can Presidential nominee to two score newspaper
correspondents at Estes Park, Colorado, the first
week in July Robert D. Carey, conservative Republic
can senator from Wyoming, said: Governor Landon
is against benefit payments to farmers as perman-
ent part of the nations farm policy, as that would
constitute augmentation He added that during his
five-hour conference with the nominee there was no
discussion of a substitute policy"
Speaking for and in the presence of Governor
Landon the atters office at Topeka to these news
paper correspondents five days later Frank o. Low
den conservative Republican ex-governor of Illinois,
said: After conference of than two hours,
we are agreed on a farm program The Associated
Press account reads
"Lowden did the talking. Part of the time Lam
don sat behind his desk at the side of the former
Illinois governor but for the most part he moved
about greeting visitors in the outer office When
the question about farm benefit payments arose
Landon was in his chair Lowden, who said details
Of the farm program not discussed, asked
whether it embraced benefit payments He replied:
We agreed that to get land into legumes permanent
grasses bounties would have to be paid and the coun
try would benefit Is that correct Governor That's
right Lowden said Would that be permanent pro-
gram? Lowden asked oh, yes Lowden replied

IN view of the noteworthy fact that the Republi-

British Leader
Says us. Won't ).
Join Big League

LONDON, July 27-Anerica is
terrified of war, and will never join
the League of Nations if war is a
possibility.
George Lansbury, veteran labor
leader, made this statement on his
return from an extensive tour in
the United States, and added:
THE tour has been the most
strenuous thing I have undertaken
in my life, but l am very glad to
have been able to have carried it
out. The one thing in America
they are terrified of is war. The
next thing they hate is dictatorship
or Fascism.
Wherever I went found people
willing to listen to, and wanting to
understand, the proposal that has
been made in the House of Com
mons for a new international con-
ference to constitute a real League
of Nations.
They say that Great Britain and
the imperialist powers must be pre-
pared to put into the common pool
whatever is necessary to brin 6
about peace.
The feeling everywhere was that
we have got to remove the causes
of war. 1t is not enough to hate
war, but we have got to get down
to the causes of war and deal with
them just as we do with the causes
of disease
