DRIVING MANNERS NEED IMPROVING?
How are your driving manners? Are you as considerate of the feelings, eccentricities and safety of the other users of the road as you would have them be of yours? Officials of the Automobile Club of Orange Co. claim that the real test of a good driver is not whether or not he is able to start, stop and guide his car along the road, but whether or not he is considerate of the feelings and safety of other users of the public highways.
"The man who expects all pedestrians to know how to walk, all equestrians to know how to ride and all motorists to know how to drive a car, is a menace to the highways," said A. B. Ralph, of the local club.
"Obedience to the laws of motor-ing does not always save a driver from a smash-up. There is one law which is not written in the statute books, but if followed presents all sorts of trouble, and that is BE CAREFUL."
"When I say observe the courtesies of the road, I mean give the other fellow ample warning of whatever moves you are about to make. Don't make a left hand turn so that you hog the road and run the danger of a smash-up. Drive on your side of the road. Do not be careless when you make a turn. Give the other fellow ample warning."
"Don't drive too closely to another car. A sudden stop may cause an accident. Above all things, don't cut corners. Make a full turn always."
"There is only a small proportion of drivers who have passed into oblivion because they were deficient in some point of driving. It is the thousands and thousands who daily structure some elemental rule of safety or common road courtesy that are looking for accident and death."

Want Power? Then Purchase Maxwell
The annual demand for power is on, in much the same quantity, but perhaps a little more, as the demand for automobiles. The annual test of the worth of a motor under the hood that is either nicely polished or grimmed with dirt and dust is being conducted by thousands, for this is the touring and vacation season. Every ounce of reserve power that the owner purchased with his automobile is being called into play.
Thousands more have flocked into the mountains than ever before, as the trend of the modern motorist, in forsaking the city for the annual two weeks' rest is into the higher country. The beaches of course, prove a drawing attraction as usual, for thousands more, but the figures provided by Uncle Sam in his National Forests and reports from inland chambers of commerce bear out the fact that motor cars are thicker in the mountains this year.
"A reserve of power must be at the command of the driver at all times," says C. A. Doyle, sales manager of the Union Motors, Inc., Maxwell distributors for Southern California, "and in order to demonstrate the power built into the new Maxwell models to ourselves we have conducted the most strenuous tests we could find in this territory.

with the utmost care to insure perfection.
Motor tests have developed greater power than he has found in previous trials, and these facts back up his reasoning for a faster and greater performance. But these are not the only two participants. They form a basis upon which to judge the performance of such veterans of the sports as Roscoe Sarles, who is always to be reckoned with because of his capabilities; Harry Hartz, who has caused the administration of the racing world because of his performances so far this year, placing him second only to Murphy on the championship list for points in the 1922 race; Grandpa Eddie Hearne, the 'Old Fox' who by his cunning and daring finishes has won many memorable speed events and who is driving the fast Italian Ballot; Frank Elliott, whose thrilling escape from serious injury, if not death, on the San Francisco track last year is still in the memory of Northern California racing fans, and others of equal repute.
Thousands are expected to witness the coming championship event. President J. Francis O'Connor, of the local speed plant, stated that the advance reservations have been far in advance of any previous race, and plans are being made by ferry and rail transportation companies to take care of the largest crowd that has been seen. Preparations are also being made to take care of capacity crowds along the route to the track, situated half way between Petaluma and Santa Rosa, so that congestion and delay on the way will be as few as possible.
According to present plans, accommodations at the tract will easily handle the greatest crowd that has ever witnessed an event on this speedway, and parking space inside the huge bowl will provide amply for the motorists. Special plans are also being laid to insure the safety and comfort of the fans passing in the ramps under the tracks and into the grandstand.
I. B. S. Makes Many Sales; New Batteries
To accommodate customers who have been inquiring for a dry battery, the Independent Battery Station has taken over the distribution head of the Sun dry battery. The station continues to have its own batteries; the I. B. S., and the Columbia. The Sun battery has an unusual guarantee and more power, brighter light etc., are claimed for it.
The board shortly will put up a bumper sign in front of its station at North Loc Angeles and Cypress-site to indicate more clearly the location.
The square deal policy of the station has resulted in sales averaging about one per day the past two weeks. Among recent purchasers are: Postmaster J. F. Abbey; Cornshire; R. S. Smith; L. S.; A. B. Prescott; I. B. S.; Jay Prentice; I. B. S.; G. B. Dunsmoor; I. B. S. Hebert A. Hawley; cashier of the Southern County Bank; Columbia; I. B. Glenn; Columbia; W. E. Alexander Columbia radio; C. L.

Two Exhaust Pipes Upon Lexington Car
Two exhaust pipes instead of one Simple, isn't it? That's one of things Chief Engineer Moore of Lexington Motor Company thought before any one else. And the result of his idea was that the Lexington entirely free of the ill effects of an cumulated burnt-out gases.
It doesn't take much scientific sense to figure out that an automatic cylinder which is one-fourth full of dead burnt gases, mixed with fresh new gas, will go off with just about three-fourths the power of a cylinder which is entirely full of gas that is new and fresh.
In other words, if an automobile doesn't eliminate properly, it is going to be a sick automobile.
The fact is that the ordinary single cylinder automobile, with the ordinary single exhaust pipe, gives easier cylinder just about half as much time to clean itself out after explosion as is really needed. When one cylinder
50 Miles Per Gallon With a Stromberg
Official test 51.6 miles on a gallon of gas! Think of it—sounds impossible. It means over 100 miles on two gallons of gas. This mileage was recently made with a Ford car equipped with the new 1922 Stremberg carburetor and Hot Spot—that's what did the trick.
The above test was made under the supervision of the American Automobile Association. An official measured one gallon tank of ordinary 57-test gasoline was used and the car driven over the Dixie highway near Chicago. Car carried three passengers. Total weight of car and passengers was 2370 pounds.
With no change in carburetor adjustment, car was throttled down to six miles per hour, then throttle was thrown wide open and a speed of 45 miles was reached. Car accelerated from standing start to 25 miles per hour in 11 4-5 seconds—from 10 miles to 30 miles an hour in 15 seconds. This most remarkable performance is the sensation of the automobile world.

Pneumatics Preserve Roads; Solids Damage
A good deal has been published about the benefits of pneumatic tires on trucks to the owner of them. These aren't the only benefits, say Nenno & Boeck, distributors of Good-year cords here. Pneumatics do not injure the roads as do solid rubber tires.
The passenger car has done more than any other agency to secure public approval of bond issues for good roads. The pneumatic truck tire, in universalizing the motor truck, should have a similar effect, in the maker's opinion.
It is, however, says the Goodyear Company of California, quite as important to prevent the quick destruction of good roads as to secure them in the first place.
This suggests to good roads advocates and to taxpayers in general that they consider very carefully the relative effect of pneumatis and solid truck tires on roads.
Many communities throughout the country are showing deep concern over the fact that solid tires injure their pavements with repidity.
The heads of big business have stated that the residents of districts, in which they make deliveries, prefer to see pneumatic tired trucks using the streets and highways in front of their homes.
MOST FAGEOLS ARE BOUGHT IN COUNTY
Thomas Brussing of Santa Ana, who has been using a Fageol tractor for the past four years during which he has spent only $40 for repairs, has purchased another Fageol from J. J. deVaux, Orange county distributors. The factory in Oakland announces that there will be no further cuts on the machine. The strength of the drawbar has been increased from 1,000 to 1,450 pounds, normal sense to figure out that an automatic bile cylinder which is one-fourth full of dead burnt gases, mixed with fresh new gas, will go off with just about three-fourths the power of a cylinder which is entirely full of gas that is new and fresh.
In other words, if an automobile doesn't eliminate properly, it is going to be a sick automobile.
The fact is that the ordinary single exhaust pipe, gives easier single exhaust pipe, easier cylinder just about half as much time to clean itself out after explosion as it really needed. When one cylinder interacts to expel its burnt gas it to the pipe it finds that another cylinder has just recently filled the pipe with burnt gasses. It shoots out much gas as possible and has no swallow the rest.
In the meantime the world moves on and other explosions take place and things get worse and worse. But with the Moore multiple exhaust systems things are different.

WORSTED BY GOAT
NEW YORK, July 29.—Petrolman August Grom of Brooklyn emulated the comic supplement in a vigorous engagement with an irate billy goat at Roebling and Grand streets today.
The goat "started something" when he tried to "kid" the officer, who was regulating traffle, by walking out in the middle of the street. Grom promptly hit the goat on the head with his "billy" and the battle was on.
It ended when the goat butted the officer in the mid section with much force and rare precision.
Three other officers hurried to the scene, roped the animal and picked Grom out of the gutter.
