CULTURE BEHIND THE WHEEL

The other day young man remarked
upon the possibility that somebody might
practice and develop automobile driving as
a fine art.
There is something to the suggestion.
1t is amazing how many cultured men and
women, who are the essence of gentility in
personal contacts, forget all about good
manners when they get behind the steer
ing wheel of a modern automobile.
So, as word of advice to drivers,
who would like to live long and enjoy
many motor rides, we suggest that they
practice good manners on the highway. It
will not hurt anybody and it might be the
means of avoiding personal injury. Any
way, it would be good grace to acquire.

or when he stands aside for me

to say thank YOU I think it is
polite. and therefore proper, but a
friend thinks it is wrong to thank
a man for behavior that is always
expected of gentleman.
Answer: II is never improper to
be polite. At the same time, if
you are out with man then it is
true that you would more or less
take for granted the ordinary
courtesies that are expected of a
gentleman. But you would certain
~ say thank you to total

Dear Mrs. Post: If one would
like to have the chauffeur drive
more slowly, may one tell him so
or is it necessary to tell some one
in the family first and let him

car you could of course ask him to

driving with the owner of the car,
you should not say anything to the
chauffeur at all.
