In the United States, each year sees nearly 1,000.000 brand new mo torists take the wheel and begin the process uf acquiring skill in driv ing. Driving is one of the things that can best be learned by doing. To many it comes quite naturally; to others it does not. There is reason to believe that the beginner who is of a mechanical turn of mind has advantages over the beginner who, lacking mechani cal interest, is forced to learn his driving technique entirely by rule. This is because the mechanical- minded driver understands the rea sons for each move, comes to see, subconsciously, the mechanical processes set in motion by his hand or foot, and thinks of his driving in terms of what is happening under the hood. But anyone who will take the trou ble to ground himself in certain fun damentals about his car is likely to develop into a safe and skillful op erator, whether he happens to be mechanical-minded or not. With modern automobiles, the driver’s control over his car is just as complete in bad weather as at any other time. But it frequently requires greater skill to exercise this control, and for this reason, the new driver should be extra cautious during the season when rain and hazy weather complicate the task of driving. There is no better safety advics than the rule that is now almost axiomatic: Always drive in such a manner that you can stop in the clear space ahead. Many a motor ist has thought he was obeying this rule, only to find that the stopping distance on wet pavement, or in slippery leaves, was something quite different from the stopping distance on hard dry pavement. The recent decision of your Board of Directors to place the store on a strictly cash basis enables us to conform in every respect to the best approved practice for cooperation. A recently approved statement of principles by a committee ap pointed by the International Cooperative Alliance has this to say about cash: •>“Vi CASH PAYMENT—an essential factor not only of the financial stability and liquidity of cooperative , enterprise but also of the power of capitalism to moralize trade and industry, liberate the community of consumers from the thraldom of debt, and train them in habits of economy.” ❖ (The sixth of seven great principles expounded by the commit tee.) Your management pledges anew their best effort to the further building of a real cooperative, run always with the best interest of the membership and customers in mind. We will try to merit and will of course, covet your confidence and continued loyal support. Remember your own stores gain is your gain.

E. A. Winslow of Yale univer sity. Dr. Winslow terms the new sys tem “the pleasantest and perhaps the most economical form of winter heating for residences.” He explained that the new method depends on rays which cause warmth when they strike the hu man body, thus differing from the usual method which depends pri marily on warming the air. Most of the efficiency loss in cur rent heating systems is derived from the fact that a large percent age of the heat energy produced goes to warm the air rather than the human body. In the new system, the air tem perature can be as low as 50 de grees with perfect comfort to dwell ers, because the heat that is gen erated radiates directly to the hu man body. Speaking of "the air-cooled hu man body,” Dr. Winslow empha sized that the general objective of air-conditioning “is to maintain • desirable rate of heat loss from the surface of the human body. “What we desire,” he said, “is at mospheric conditions which produce an active sense of physical well being such as is experienced on the mountain top or sea beach." Although not commercially avail able as yet, three radiant heating systems are now operating success fully in and near New Haven ar.d the British have made extensive use of the method, he said. Eskimo Reindeer Herders Canada's Eskimos are making good as reindeer herders, says the department of mines and resources, Ottawa. A roundup. shows that a herd placed under native manage ment in December, 1938, has in creased about 350 fawns and now totals approximately 1.200 head. Since its transfer to the Anderson river area, about 150 miles east of the government reindeer station, ihe native herd has been managed by Eskimo herders, under the supervi sion of the chief government herd er. Establishment of this nct.ve herd is another step in Canada's plan to establish reindeer ranching among the Eskimos as a means of assisting the natives by providing a staple supply of food and clothing. The herd is reported to he in ex cellent condition and the natives in trusted with its management are taking a keen interest in the enter prise. Thus Canada’s experiment in converting the Eskimos from hunt ers to herders appears to be mak ing favorable progress. Water Supply Pollution One source of wate supply pollu tion in many homes with old fash ioned and obsolete plumbing fixtures is through back siphonage. a pr. ess whereby possibly contaminated water standing in fixtures may he drawn back into the supply piping by suction resulting from partial vacuum or backflow in the supply pipes. A menace to the heal'li of every member of the family, back siphonage is best prevented by re placing unsafe fixtures, and exam ination of the piping system to de termine whether it ia properly de signed. The American Medical as sociation recently issued a warning to state authorities, urging them to be on the watch for sale of old- fashioned fixtures, barred from cities, on small villages sod rur.l HERMISTON BAPTIST CHURCH Grayden D. Loree, Pastor “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” 2 Chron. 7:14. A pastor recently said, “I believe that prayer will do more to protect our country than will billions of dol lars spent for armaments, and it is the only power that will be able to stop the God-denying, Chriat-hating, Bible exterminating dictators. Let us earnestly and mightily pray ” Find your way to the house of prayer this Sunday. * * GARDEN C LU B CHATS 4/Jt-COND/T/ONED BUSES/ TAKE H e a d for your favorite vacation V A C A T IO N I A ’ . for about , .»»'ll s p e n d WHO* Y °U ® . «pot by a ir-c o n d itio n e d Super* Coach!
