U Kankakee, IIT., has passed an ordinance imposing a fine of S2O on any driver who runs his automobile with the muffler open. Drivers have a notion that they ca,n get more speed out of a machine with a rajsed muffler and use this method when starting or climbing hills or grades. Alderman Sawyer of the Kankakee council, Who is a machine owner, declares this to be a fallacy. He has mo peddle on - his machine for raising the muffler, and claims he gets along just as well without it. He adds that the

class who are most flagrant in running with raised mufflers do it to show off.
