Highways

(Continued From Page One) but could be improved. In some states, the arm is required to be extended horizontally for a left turn, 45 degrees or more below the horizontal for a stop 'or pronounced slowing, and 45 degrees or more above the horizontal for

a right turn.

Practice of Careful Drivers This system is theoretically excellent, but in practice has serious danger. For example: a driver extends his arm at an angle somewhat below the horizontal, meaning to hold it horizontal. The fol-

lowing driver assumes that a stop would not be fully completed unti

is intended, and attempts to pass on the left just as the preceding driver begins a left turn, with respiting disaster. Careful drivers, where this system is in vogue, never take the signals literally, but merely assume that something is going to happen, and watch carefully to see what it will be. In certain states still different systems have been tried out. The proper rule, in any case, is to extend the arm, well out of the car. and beginning sufficiently early to gn r e the following driver time to take precautions. Morcover, the arm should not be quickly thrust out and drawn back, as in flicking the ashes off a cigar; but it should be kept extended until the turn or stop is well under way. If the driver cannot manipulate the steering wheel with on hand while holding the other arm out, that is sufficient evidence that he is driving at unsafe speed or is otherwise incompetent to drive. No matter what the system of signalling may be, it is well in any case, however, for following drivers to proceed cautiously by the car which seems to be stopping or making a right turn, for there will never be a time when all drivers are competent in some matters as giving

proper hand signals.

When Weather Is Bad The greatest difficulty arises in cold or rainy weather, when cars have their windows closed. Holding up the hand inside the car is never an assurance of safety. In a rain, the greatest of caution, and the assumption that the driver ahead may do almost anything at any time, are necessary. It is probable that before long all cars will be required to be equipped with external signalling devices, operated from inside, but cousid erable improvement and standardization is required before such a

step can be taken.

If a driver is certain that his stop light is working properly he may reasonably omit the hand signal for stopping. The most careful drivers, however, while keeping the stop light in the best possible condition, do not omit the band signals. These signals are important not only for following drivers, but also for those ap preaching in the opposite direction, and are of.len vital for pedestrians. The pedestrian caught in the middle of the street needs to know if the approaching car is about to make a turn, or is to stop, and the hand signal is as clear to him as it is to the driver of another car. The stop light can be seen neither by the pedestrian nor by the driver of the car going in the opposite direction.

No Plac* For Goats

One of the most irritating perversities of incompetent drivers is the habit of pulling suddenly out from a parallel parking place without warning. When a goa* driver butts suddenly out, paying no attention to traffic and giving no warning, the passing driver has to swerve suddenly endangering his own car and those of others In drawing out of a parallel park ing place, the driver should wait until there is a lull in passing traffic, and then extend his arn exactly as for a left turn, and draw out slowly. Gloats haA r e no place in street or highway.

The Intercepting (Continued From Page One) to or total destruction of the

sewer.

The plan, therefore, was recommended in order to save the sewei from damage or injury after once being laid. Another reason for thh attitude is that in all probability the work of constructing the sewei will be carried on during the sum mer time and if so, all are cog nizant of the fact that the stenci from the river would be intoler able and a menace to workmei employed to do the work. This would mean that the riVei

clogged to such an extent that th

sewer would be ruined.

Bad as the stench from the rive’ is during the summer months, it b nothing compared with what i vould be if it were not for the fac' that this slime and filth is parti: Submerged with water, much of /vhich pours into the river throug' the present sewers, and if in th< future all these sewers should b' constructed with an outlet sewer many people who own their home' in the vicinity of the river woUb ')ave to move out of the neighbor mod and the way to abate thi nuisance is to dredge out the rive

ind get rid of the cause.

RURAL NEWS

after the sewer is constructed, a; the construction of dams and thr general beautification of the rivei would not take place until aftei the sewer is completed and thr time intervening between the com pletion of both projects, would nO

exceed two months. Could Be Much Worse.

In regard to statements made b; numerous persons during the pas ami in refutation of the ideas in tended to be expressed threUgi the slogan, “buiild the interceptin' sewer and make White Rive White,” we wish to say that thesideas could in no way be substan tiated and are most unreasonabh for the reason that there is an ac cumulation of filth in the bed o - the river, much of which has bei accumulating for the past 50 ytar and all the sanitary sewers imagin able might be constructed alonf the river bank, but would not re move this filth and the consequen' stench. If it were possible to tun accumulated water into the sewei it would not be twenty-four hour:

ill the other taxing units in the city of Muncie combined and at die same time has managed to >hovide the payment of all expenditures without the sale of municipal bonds or the issuance of temporary loans. The park fund retained a balvnee of more than $22,000 at the And of last year and the 4 cent evy for 1933 will add $18,400 nore to the total amount of availible park funds. The total budget or 1933 to be used by the rai’b >oard is $30,930 which when deluded from the total receipts of !!40,400 will leave a balance in his fund at the close of this year if nearly $9,500. The aviation comnission has been disposed of and herefore no receipts or expendiures will be made for aviation mrposes. The city planning comnission has $H)!,6'01.S6 on hand at oresent and so far no expendiures have been made from this

The 3eech Grove cemetery has a $41,00 bonded indebtedness which is supposed to be self liquidating hrough the sale of cemetery lots ind other receipts. Heretofore, the mmetery board has met these ibligations promptly but throughuit 1932 and so far to date such edemption of bonds lias been delended upon by the civil city.

without the experience to start again on another kind of work. Thousands of other highly skilled workers have been laid off in rail-

road equipment industries.

What this means to. the country is easy to imagine. The “railroad man” has always been a well-paid worker .with a high living standard. Collectively, he has spent billions of dollars which have flowed through agriculture, industry, all the businesses of the nation. When he is thrown out of work, it wreaks havoc on the gen-

eral purchasing power.

"^T O other range in the world Urn do, automatically, what ■L N the Westinghouse new Dual-automatic Flavor Zone Range does with amazing speed and economy. Cooking experts tested this out by putting an ordinary roast in the cold oven at 10 a. m.; then sqf. the “Cooking Contror’ and sealed the oven and switches, so that no basting could be done. At 3 p. m. — a “click” . . . the oven heated to 500 degrees. When the roast reached the peak of flavor and tenderness (the “Flavor Zone”) the oven seared and caramelized the outside, sealing inside the delicious juices. Then another “click” — the electricity was off. The Dual-automatic control reduced the temperature to 300 degrees to keep the juice j from cooking out, and this heat was maintained until done. The experts were astonished at the quantity of rich juice, at the tenderness, the flavor, and at the size! It had not shrunk as roasts do in fuel ovens. And the electric roasting cost was less than in an ordinary oven!
