WARNS MOTORISTS AGAINST CHANCES Don’t Trust to Luck When Driving on Slippery Streets, Advises Hoosier M otor Club Manager.

"I hope I stop” is the fervent wish of every motorist who attributes unto himself that element called y luck which seems to have an affinity for some people and an acute aversion to others, according to Todd Stoops, manager of the Hoosier Motor Club, who warns the so-called lucky motorists that luck may some day run out if used too freely. “How many heretofore lucky motorists, failed to stop during the recent period of icy pavements, will never be ascertained,” said Stoops, “but it is certain that many who

did not stop will be more cautious in the future and will not rely so much upon luck to help them out of the pinches. Check Brakes “Now is the time of the year for every motorist to consider his facilities for stopping correctly and at the proper time. A stop made after a pedestrian has been knocked down, or by the aid of a telephone post or another automobile, is not considered proper by judges, juries or insurance companies. "During the next few months we will have many days when the

streets will be covered with ice or snow and brakes in the best of condition will not stop an automobile. Every motorist who values his life and property and the lives and ; property of others is negligent, who j does not use skid chains on the ice and snow or who does not use extreme caution when driving under such conditions. And skid chains j will not warrant any burst of speed on icy streets for there is always a chance that the chains will not grab at the proper time. 1 I'se Common Sense “No mechanical device will take the place of common sense when driving, and the streets are not fool proof for either the motorist or pedestrian. Streets covered with snow or ice offer many accident possibilities, and it is a wise motorist, in-, deed, who knows just when and where he is going to stop. And it is a wise pedestrian who knows that the motorist close upon him can stop in time to avoid striking him without any extra exertion on his part. Slippery winter streets offer a big gambling chance to the : motorist who hopes he can stop and j the pedestrian who dares him to I come on. And there appear to be some still living who care to gamble with life in that manner. "Trusting to luck is gambling, and every gambler loses once in a while. It is far better to be cautious and on the alert for quick stops and to save the luck to help one out of those so-called unavoidable acclIdents.” ‘FIRST LADY’ RADIO FAN =_ President Seldom Listens to White House Set Itv J'nited I‘rr* WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.—Mrs. Coolidge is the official White House radio fan.
