    THE HERMISTON HERALD. HERMISTON,
FOR WOMEN MOTORISTS.
NEXT WEEK’S
Some
and Should Not Do.
The good driver of a motorcar never
applies brakes swiftly except in an
emergency. When drawing up at a
street side she cuts off ignition early
and allows momentum to carry the
car to the stopping place, using the
service brake gradually. The good
driver thus saves gasoline and wear
upon brakes, coasting to a stop with
the smoothness of operation of an easy
start.
A good driver never uses the emer
gency brake, because she never has
emergencies. She sees and avoids the
emergency before it arrives. The poor
driver rushes into trouble and depends
upon quickness in grabbing the emer­
gency lever to save life. More than
one accident has followed a futile at­
tempt to find the seldom used emer­
gency lever in a hurry.
The good driver rounds sharp cor­
ners to the right and goes over ex­
tremely rough stretches of road or hits
unexpected “thank you ma’ams” with
clutch disengaged, to save the rear
axle mechanism.
The good driver uses the wheel with
the least possible motion. She does
not drag it suddenly from side to side.
but turns It so gradually that passen­
gers are unconscious of the fact In
rounding a corner she commences to
straighten the car up before it Is half­
way around. — Woman's Home Com­
panion.

FAKE RELIEF SOLICITORS
This is an era of high prices.
Bankers and financiers general­
ly tell us there is plenty of money
in circulation now. Naturally in
flush times people are inclined
to loosen upon the purse strings.
This is commendable, especially
in view of the many calls that
are being made on the generos­
ity of the public.
But if we are not very careful,
much of our charity will be mis­
placed. There are legitimate
calls that we must meet, and we
can not afford tobe humbugged.
The government must be finan­
ced, the Red Cross and kindred
organizations must be supported
and it will take every dollar we
can rake together to meet these
demands.
Aside from these legitimate de­
mands. though, every now and
then we are importuned to give
to this, that and the other
so-called
“relief”
scheme.
People with more “patriotism”
than brains conceive that the
soldiers are not being cared for,
and a "bazaar”» is promoted to
give the needed relief. The
people out of their loyalty and
generosity respond liberally,
with the result that if the pro­
moters are honest and disinter­
ested. the soldier boys are delug­
ed with a lot of junk for which
they have no earthly use. In
many cases, however, the pro­
moters are "interested" more in
themselves than in the boys, in
which case the proceeds are
mainly eaten up in the form of
salaries and expenses.
The Government has issued in­
structions for all the auxiliary
work it wishes the people at large
to assist in carrying on. and it
will be well for all to read up on
these instructions, that they be
not duped. No every young
enthusiast who can scare up a
red. white and blue sash and
take a collection for a “cause”
is to be encouraged.
There are, as we have said, leg­
itimate channels through which
our relief can be bestowed, and
we should be very careful to see
that it goes through these chan­
nels, that it may be sure of
reaching the object for which
it is given.
There are indications that Mr.
Hoover’s efforts will eventually
bring flour on speaking terms
with the people.
The Kaiser is quoted as saying
that all he wants is justice, and
the Allied world is of one mind
in the determination to see that
he gets it in full measure. The
probabilities are, however, that
his kaisership won't recognize the
article when he sees it coming.
If an object is needed to show
in what light Germany regards
neutral nations, and to verify
her estimate of a treaty as a
“scrap of paper,” the fate of
Norway is ample for the pur­
pose. That nation, although ad­
hering scrupulously toa policy of
neutrality, has lost hundreds of
ships by German submarines
and mines, and not less than
5,000 lives with them. No one
of the allied countries’ navies
have suffered to the extent that
Norwegian shipping has suffered.
The Russian Bolsheviki seem
to have been handed a lemon in
the German peace proposals'
The Kaiser’s government mod­
estly demanded control of the
Russian wheat market for a per­
iod of fifteen years, that she re­
tain all Russian territory now’oc­
cupied by her troops, and that
all German made goods be im­
ported into Russia duty free.
Doubtless there were some minor
concessions she would have also,
but she hoped to have no trouble
in securing these when she had
her victim securely tied. But
even a Bolsheviki has glimmer­
ings of reason and the proposi-
tion was not received with en-
thusiasm.

Things a Good Driver Should
RECORD COAL LOADING
Unela Sam's Plant at Cristobal Is the
Fastest In the World.
The good work of the Cristobal coal
loading plant at the isthmus of Pana­
ma is the subject of a report receiv­
ed at the war department from one
of Its boards, whose conclusions are
that the plant fully meets the plans of
the engineers and is probably the most
efficient loading plant in the world. It
was found that the minimum perform­
ance during the test was 1,950 tons an
hour and the maximum 2,486 tons. The
minimum occurred when one of the
four diggers was temporarily out of
commission, due to a defective bucket.
At 2,400 tons an hour the plant far
exceeds the work of any other known
plant for loading steamships or even
of railroad loading plants. The canal
collier Ulysses was loaded at the rate
of 1,650 tons an hour, and 12,000 tons
were put on her In eight hours. Mer­
chant ships cannot be loaded at this
rapid rate, as their hatches are too
small and their buukers are not ar­
ranged to admit of such work. This
Is a feature in shipbuilding that is be­
ing carefully taken care of nowadays
in constructing ships that are to pass
through the canal. All new United
States naval colliers are so built that
they can be loaded at high speed.
Garment Making In New York.
garment making industry in
New York, much before the public
nowadays by reason of the efforts of
the save New York committee to move
its base from the retail shopping dis-
trict in the Fifth avenue section, is
really one of the biggest assets the
city has. Some 16,000 factories are op­
erated for tailoring, millinery, laun
dering and other branches of work
upon garments, employing more than
300.000 persons. Their output exceeds
goods valued at $500,000,000 annually,
aiding materially in making New York
the leading manufacturing center of
this country, Chicago, Philadelphia, St
Louis, Boston and Cleveland following
tn the order named.
The
Join the Pay Up Crowd.
John D. Rockefeller often referred
proudly to the fact that when he was
making $25 a month he made it a point
to pay all his bills promptly. He also
managed to save a little money that
later became the foundation of his
great fortune. When you pay your
bills promptly you know just where
you are at. Pay up is becoming a na­
tional slogan. Cities and states have
inaugurated pay up days and pay up
weeks. The man who pays his bills
when they are due feels better for It.
There is no doubt that he makes the
man he owes feel better. Do your part
in the pay up campaign. Pay now.
Pays His Men Each Day.
Contractors In central Pennsylvania
have solved the problem of keeping la­
bor on the job. The force of one con­
tractor who began paying his men off
every day Instead of at the end of the
week was so pleased with the arrange­
ment that it stuck by him. and other
contractors have adopted the same
plan. According to reports, the plan
has met with success wherever tried.—
