" 'Keep your car under control.'" That was the comment today of H. G. Williams of the Northwestern garage, Evanston, who is an auto- mobile investigator by appointment from the secretary of state. Pointing to the fact that there have been a large number of traffic accidents on the north shore recent- ly and that if the laws of averages works, there will almost certainly be one or more automobile collissions during the summer, Williams gave some of the reasons for these mis- haps and showed how they might be easily avoided. He said he had no sympathy for the autoist who was responsible for an accident, and believed courts and juries should not be lenient with him. The Whole Story "The whole story is told in keeping your car under control," he said. • "Whether two automobiles collide or whether an automobile runs down a pedestrian there is the same cause and the bottom of it. If the auto- mobile or automobiles were under control the accident would have been avoided. », ,,. --, iP Should Slow Down v "When an automobile approaches a crossing that is hidden by a blind wall he should take account of the fact that some other automobile is apt to cross his path at this point and he should slow down until he can stop his car within a short dist- ance. When he is following another automobile, he should keep at a safe distance, in case the one ahead of him should stop or turn suddenly. When: he is followed by another automobile he should signal when he intends to stop or to turn into another street. It is against the law to turn in the middle of the block. "On approaching a crossing where people are standing he should slow down. He doesn't know when some- body is going to cross his path sud- denly. V Careful About Horn "He should be careful in using his horn to warn pedestrians. It may cause mor harm than good. "Frequently a pedestrian does not see an approaching automobile until it is right upon him and the driver sounds the horn. The first impulse of the pedestrian on hearing a horn is to stop in his tracks and look around; by that time it is often too late for him to escape. "In passing children on the street the aittoist should always slow down Mutt Give Information "The state law provides that an automobile driver should not take -his machine out onto the roads and streets until he has assured himself that his brakes and his horn are in g<M>d working order. ^ The law also provides--<and this , point should be of interest to news- paper reporters--that when an auto- •? ist is in a collision any person may step up to him and demand his name and address, and the autoist must give the information. fa vr«|t js furthermore the doty of the f autoist to know the state laws #, governing auto traffic." ■^'■- ' ~"---------4--........- ./■■4M t}t""fwm^.-:. ..Caddies Now Savers ;'J$*:;\.....'Every caddy'-at the'.Westmoreland ;:;.ftt?*rnj North -Shore Goli clubs is the siigyyuj#ess©r of a Thrift -pard.aad one g|pThrift\.Stamp.

Don't "wish you had". Stand not on the order of order- ing, but Order. A ton in the bin is worth nine in the mine . Coal--the driving force of war. Get the load off your mind and in the cellar. Order early, to the utmost of earliness. The concentrated wisdom of ac- cumulated experience. Buy coal NOW. A message from the past: Buy coal early. Forewarned is full-binned. In the spring a wise man's fancy turns to thoughts of winter coal. Neglect this spring means suffer- ing next winter) Order coal now. Place your order for coal, so that your house and not your talk to the coal man, will be heated in Decem- ber. * WALTER W.

When Peace Comes Some day peace will come. Thou- sands--millions of men--will sudden- ly be thrown back again into civil life. Consider the vastness of the readjustment that will be necessary. Look back at the period of recon- struction after our own Civil War. Prepare for this new period of re- construction. The day of reckoning is bound to come. Begin to save now. Thrift is the heed of the present, the hope of the future. Liberty Loan Bonds, War Savings, the safest securities in the world, are. a wise provision for the day peace comes.
