According to Chas. M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor club, the real secrets in high gas mileages are easy stops and starts, plus a well-tuned car. "There is always great wonder why cars iiK economy runs can get better, than 27 miles a gallon, whereas - average drivers usually achieve around ,15," stated Hayes. "But average drivers usually are much more intent on getting where they're going than on saving gasoline. The motorist who wants to save gasoline can pick up many tricks from economy run drivers." V The drivers used oh economy runs are picked for their skill. Their cars are strictly stock and they must maintain a scheduled pace over a rugged course. They use a number of tricks to save gas which wouldn't interest the average driver. On even the hottest stretches, they keep the windows closed to bold down wind resistance. During these runs most gasoline- saving is achieved by maintaining a steady pace on the highway and avoiding sudden stops and starts. Another important point is in passing; the economy-minded driver doesn't just step on the accelerator but waits for an opportunity when he can pass in safety with only a moderate increase in speed. Hayes commented that, "the records scored in economy runs show that take-it--easy driving is the most economical kind. Andl it's the safest." Est a Good* Good Hot weather brings out the insects, and homemakety immediately bring out the insecticides --the spray, the powder, the aerosol bomb. Most insecticides are poisonous to animals ajkl to humans, warns Pauline Brimhall, health specialist, University of Illinois College of Agriculture. Here are a few safety rules to protect you and your filmier when you use insecticides: When you use insecticides, either liquids or potirders, be sure that dishes ahd cooking utensils are covered and that food is stored where it Wont be contaminated. Don't store insecticide* in Che same cupboard with foods. If you spill insecticide your skin, wash it off promptly. When spraying insecticides, breathe in as little of the mist or dust as possible. . Keep children and pets off sprayed surfaces until the spray has dried. Use insecticides on children's clothing only when you are going to store it. Before allowing the child to wear trek ted garments, have them dry-cleaned. Many oil-based ihsecticides are flammable. Don't use them near open flames, sparics electric circuits. When you finish u$ing an insecticide, empty the abused fhaterial into the original container clean the sprayer or the duster and wash all exposed surface* of the body* with ioaj* and water. Store insecticides otti of- 1Mb reach of children. Worwick's McHenry Camera Center Cameras Bought Sold and. Exchanged PHOTO SUPPLIES Free Bxpert Service Does Not Stop With A .Sail".'. .
