Clifford Brokaw) 4 One of the most essential parts of «n automobile is the horn. But the less it is used the more important it becomes. In some respects the story, of the boy who cried "wolf, wolf," when there was no wolf applies to the use of the automobile horn.. Ifâ€"motorâ€" ists ganenllybh'thdrmhom excessively folks will b'o.gomo so used to the din that they will become inâ€" effective means of warning when there is real danger. â€" _<_. . ; | Must Use Judgment On the contrary the motorist who conserves his horn excessively must use judgment when varying from this custom. â€" For instance, suppose a peâ€" destrian is walking along the highway ahead of an approaching car. If the driver should give his horn a sharp blast it may startle the walker, cause himtobecomeconfuodhndjmpdi- rectly in the path of the approaching machine. But if the driver does not sound his horn, the man on foot, not realizing his danger, may suddenly change his direction ‘and‘ put ghe drivâ€" er to the severe test of avoiding an accident. The matter can best be hanâ€" dled by. blowing the horn mildly and before getting too near the man on _ Bombastic blowing of the horn may be a characteristic of the owner who is operating his car for the first few times. There may be some excuse for CIDIVEWL . PE RRTOR AOARW e CE the somewhat nervous‘ beginner who does not fegel quite sure of his conâ€" trol. He has reason for calculating that people who may be walking on the highway will be more certain to get out of his line of procedure if he gives his horn‘ plenty of exercise. The novice at driving can be excused for over tooting. ; â€" Happy Medium ‘ More"experienced drivers sometimes fail to sound their horns when .they ought to. They think when they use their horns it advertises them as amaâ€" teurs in operating a car. The best teurs in driving. The ibest ‘form in horn blowing lies in following the happy medium between too much horn noise and not enough. There are cerâ€" tain times when motorists ought to sound a warning in the interest. of safety. © This is a moral obligation. In general, the driver of an automoâ€" bile should éxercise common sense when it comes to the use of his horn. If there is any certain time when one can blow his horn with unrestrictâ€" ed freedom it is when nearing a public school just as it lets out is many puâ€" pils. There are other times when: a driver should be especially thoughtful not to blow much, as when going by hospitals, passing churches on Sunâ€" days and other places where people have a right to quiet. Late at night is another time when silence is goldâ€" en and is greatly appreciated by those who ‘deserve a good night‘s sleep. Sane Horn Program : The driver who watches other moâ€" torists and pedestrians carefully will likely develop a sane horn program. If he is alert and if his direction and speed of travel are such that those ahead are reasonably sure to be out of the way before the driver arrives at the spot, there is no_nced of p:king a lot of noise. If there is the least possibility of danger instinctively the horn should be sounded and instinctâ€" ively the driver‘s foot should go to the brake pedal at the same time his hand goes to the horn. j When one is driving in the country | . and desires to pass another car goâ€" ing in the same direction, it is both customary and safer to sound the horn once so that the driver of the car ahead can judge as to when and where he will give the follower his best chance to pass since he can see the road before him better and knows what obstructions are to be avoided. Usually he will q:ny when signalâ€" ed. If he Udoes giva,way and there is any doubt about his having heard the signal, it is gbod practice to sound the horn again for it is usually unâ€" desirable to pass another car unless‘ the driver desiring to pass is certain that the driver ahead knows of the follower‘s intention. Useful Signals : It is not a bad idea for a motorist to signal just before reaching the top of a hill, particularly if the road is narrow. . If anyone is coming up on the other side he may be guided acâ€" cordingly. Likewise, the horn should be blown before coming to a cross road unless there is a plain view of . both roads for a sufficient distance to make sure that a collision is not likely to occur. And the horn should be sounded before taking dangerous eurves in the road. <â€" s | In the main, the horn should be used as sparingly as possible consistâ€" ent with safety and good sense. When the other fellow blows his horn heed this signal. You will want him to do as much for you. On this basis will _be built up a normial horn blowing ‘philosophy for motorists.

Practically all ofl the soft woods or sap woods may be | treated and profitably: used as posts. Before treating, it is important that the timber be peeled and thoroughly seasoned. Small flakes of inner bark left on the wood prevent proper abâ€" sorption‘ of the preservative at those places. Peeling is done most easily during the spring months, but may be carried on at other seasons of the year. The posts to be treated should be peeled from 8 to 4 months, dependâ€" ing upon the weather, before treatâ€" ment, and openâ€"piled in a dry place \to effect proper seasoning. Application of creosote by brushing over the whole post is only slightly effective in preventing decay. Openâ€" tank treatment with a hot bath, folâ€" lowed by a cold bath is recommended for fence posts. The sapwood surâ€" rounding the heartwood takes treatâ€" ment readily and is thereby protectâ€" ed against the entrance of decay.
