"Chats With Your
Home Agent"
By ESTHER KIRMIS
I'm feeling very conspicuous
these days I'm driving a new
state extension car a Ford
station wagon, no less! It's the
policy of our county extension
office to keep a state car for
four years and then trade it In
on a new one. I was fortunate
to come into the county just in
time for this trade.
I've been driving for a good
number of years, but I must ad
mit that like most women (and
some men) I know little of what
makes the engine under the hood
tick. So this week's chat is dir
ected to women drivers.
Ladies, have you ever been
mortified to find your favorite
garage man grinning as you tried
to explain exactly what happen
ed when your car "just went
PFFTT!" and wouldn't start
again?
Or have you been furious with
your husband for snapping, "How
do you expect to drive the thing
when you don't even know what
makes to go!"
Perhaps we women deserve the
WOMANDriver jokes and scorn
we resent so bitterly. If we're
honest, we'll have to admit that
many of us do drive a car day
after day, mile after mile, in
blissful Ignorance of what makes
it tick. It could be a steam-driven
camel, for all we know.
aciuaiiy, tnis innocence can
lead to serious trouble. If a car
isn't kept in good repair, it's not
safe to drive. And a car that
isn't properly cared for Is expen
sive to maintain ... a constant
drain on the family pocketbook.
It can cost from $500 to $1000
to replace an engine that burn
ed out because you forgot to have
the oil changed. Thousands of
families waste enough gasoline
In a year through poor main
tenance of their cars to buy $200
worth of groceries.
I'm not qualified to give you
a course In auto mechanics, but
the other day a little booklet
called, "Car Talk in a Woman's
Language" came to my desk. It's
put out by the Champion Spark
Plug Company of Toledo, Ohio.
Its a wonderful little booklet
that gives you the inside story
about your car and its engine.
It's written by women expressly
for women. For instance, It de
scribes the carburetor as the
place where the mixing of gas
and air is done . . . something
like a flit gun. Or when It talks
about the cylinders it describes
them as shaped something like
old fashioned butter churns.
There are several pages on "What
it is and what it does." and
"Know Your (Engine) Symp
toms" etc. It's all cleverly illus
trated in cartoon fashion.
Isn't it time we women drivers
took a moment to learn more
about our family cars, and Just
what makes them go? For the
sake of our family's safety. . .
for our own ego's sake . . .
and for the sake of our budgets. .
It's important for us to know.
Phone us or write for your copy
of "Car Talk in a Woman's
Language".
