This is proved by the way we crawl along the first 600 or 1000 miles when we've bought a new car. There's a sticker on our new windshield which tells us how fast NOT to drive, and we try pretty hard to follow the rules. AFTER THAT we cut loose and give her the gun. Too bad we can't have some kind of sticker on our windshield forever maybe one that says: "TAKE CARE OP YOUR FAM ILY THE FIRST 300,000 MILES." (By that time you'll have another car.) We crawl along meekly the first 500 miles to protect the bearings of our motor, and then we step on the gas like maniacs and take chances with our family who are 1,000,000,000 more precious than any bearings in any automobile. You can replace a burned-out bearing. , You can't replace a little girl or a little boy in the back seat. You can't replace the life of another motorist. You can't replace YOU, with a hole in your skull. Impose on yourself a continu ous temperance in driving a' conscious restraint for safety's sake always as you do, for your car's sake, those first 500 miles. A spectre stalks the highways Drive forever cautiously. 1910 Ford Takes Its Place in Films j tit. raw; P; .1 ftlsiS I 3? v Basil Danleli, 9293 Burton Way.
