Mrs. Major Edwin Crosby, was the speaker at last nights service in the auditorium of the Salvation ATmy's headquarters on Cherry street. Her talk was appropriate for the day and was based on @ verse found in the 1I6th Psalm, "What Ehall I render to the Lord for all hls benefits towards me?" She said tat, although she be- lleved that more people were attend ing church nt present. than has been the case for some years, there is stlll 6 great neglect m the vital needs og private prayer and Bible reading. "What is needed" she said, "ls on educated changed heart, not an educated mind so much, al- though that is also needed.

 3. Good tire treads are safe on wet pavement, but on ice or snow, tire chains (which bite in) should be put on when needed. Make it Q practice to start earlier.

 '. Slow down in gear and "puimp" brakes when stopping. Keep wheels from locking completely. Traction afforded by chains does not dupli- cate dry pavement stopping capa- city, but on snow or ice they do cut stopping distances 70 to 50 per cent, add appreciably to control of car, and avoid traffic tie-ups.
 Research conducted by the Ma uonal Safety Councils Committed on Winter Driving Hazards" Com. missioner Mccarthy said, "reyeal skidding and inadequate traction aa the principal cause of winter acci. dents. The other most serious haz- ard is reduced visibility resulting from snow and sleet storms, fog and longer hours of darkness,
 The death rate from motor ve- hicle accidents increases during the winter months % per cent in north- ern states, aid from three to 20 per cent in southern states according tc location and severity of weather"
 An important conclusion of the Safety Councils committee was: The practice of letting air out of tires for slippery pavements is a fallacy since the help for stopping ability is slight, less than 10 per cent, and there is an increased dan ger of side sklds resulting from rec duced pressure, and conseuueut in- stability. Also, tires with good treads pavementS give no better perform. highly desirable and helpful on wet ance on packed snow or ice than smooth tires
