Motor Seooters
Are Not Toys
Drive Carefully

at may be only a scooter to
you, but it's motor-yehicle in the
eyes of the law"
Chief Weaver spoke for the East
Cleveland Police Department,
which is cooperating with the Ma
tional Safety Council in a July
Program for child pedestrian and
bicycle safety. Many young people
who use motor scooters think of
them as glorified bicycles, the
chief commented.
However, he warned, authorities
in general agree that power cycles
should be treated as motor vehic-
les.
Every operator of a motor
scooter should be thoroughly in
structed in traffic rules and sig-
mails before being allowed to take
his vehicle onto the Streets" he
said.
HC CHlSI ouBSCSCSu CIlS IOlAON-
ing rules for drivers of motor
scooters:
l. Learn and obey all local and
state traffic laws.
2. Keep to the right.
8. No passengers.
4. No stunting, weaving or fast
passing.
5. Obey all "stop" and ego"
lights and all traffic warnings.
6. Do not hitch onto moving
vehicles.
Z. Never ride after dark, unless
it is absolutely necessary. Whenn
this is the case, see that your
light and reflector are in good con-
dition.
8. Use the same good sense and
courtesy you expect of the motorist
who is using the highway with you.

teed," but likely use crankcase oil
and distillate instead of linseed oil
in the paint. When the paint washes
off, they are far away. Bargains
with similarly poor materials-are
also the appeal of the siding swim
dlers who may try to convince you
your house will fall down without
new siding.
Termite Exterminators: All your
buildings are about to crumble, ac-
cording to these crooks. They try
to scare you into buying their
worthless protective treatment at
sky-high prices.
Cesspool Cleaners: These swim
oilers try to pressure you into signing
contract to pay by the pound for
material removed from your cess
pool. The cleaning is legitimate
but the price is four or five times
what the job is worth.
Imported" and Handmade" Prod
uct Statesmen: These racketeers try
Montana farmer-stockman., 1953-04-15

to hurry you into quick buy of
inequality, imported or handmade
linens, rugs and other products. The
price, of course, is bargain. The
products usually turn out to be poor
quality, machine-made materials
that are no bargain to the purchaser.
These are some of the more COM
mon rackets. There are many more
that depend ON sympathy, pressure,
cheating and dishonesty to be sue
cessful.
Not all statesmen who call on you
this summer will be phonies, of
course. The fellow who drives up
in a state-icensed car, who has
identification and references you
can check and who is sincere and
honest about his product is probably
on the level himself. At least you
will be able to find out, because
the honest salesman will be happy
to have you investigate him and his
company. And he'll have time
enough to let you compare his prod
uct with that available in your
community.
But when that out-of-state sales
man tries to hurry you into deal
this summer, be wary as never be-
fore. Get the facts before you buy,
and if you can't get the facts, guard
your money. Help make Montana
and Wyoming improbable states
for these racketeers. That's the
best way to keep them out.
And if one of these swindlers
should make the rounds in your
community, write in your expert
ences to Montana Farmer-Stockman
Protective Service, and We'll pass
the word along to protect other
communities from the same racket.
Well keep your name confidential.
Just send your letter to: Montana
Farmer Stockman, Box 1929, Great
Falls, Montana,
