According to the Institute for Safer Living, this ability should be acquired if you do much driving. Studies show that in city driving or heavier traffic, the average motorist must make up to fifty or more decisions each driving hour. Many of these must be made in split seconds, frequently with life or death in the balance. Smith's Alinement Service ELMER SMITH, Prop.
