The following suggestions have been offered by the AAA board : "Do not seek main highways for picnic purposes. Use the second ary roads where there are plenty of opportunities for parkins off the road. '. "In event of puncture try o get the. car as far off the traveled portion of the road as possible be fore changing the tire, and In no case stop on a curve or near the top of a hill. ' . 'Never stop opposite a car that has parked along the road. If you want to ask your way stop your car at least 160 feet beyond and walk back to Inquire. "You are not safe sitting In your car while it is parked on a highway. Furthermore you are a source of danger to those who aro obliged to turn out to pass you. "If you turn into a blind high way to park have the back of the car to the main road. When your car is facing the road motorists may think you are just driving In to the road. - They may make a sudden stop , - before discovering that your car is not in motion, and cars following them may be thrown into a series of rear-end collisions.

Pittsburgh, it had been shaped and was being polish ed when - Mr.; McDowell died in 1923. 4 Search revealed no man able to continue the work except one In McDowell's shop who was then working on a lens for Yale. He turned his attention to the Michigan lens' In June, and will be finished with It in six 'months- Slowness of the work of polishing Is due to the fact that each three minutes of polishing demands a wait of 60 minutes for cooling. .
