The way an automobile in cared for and driven by its own- er can increase its worth as much as several hundred dol- lars when it is traded on a new Cowboy Drivers car . Automatic trans- missions, for in- stance, while prac- 5 tically foolproof in the precision with : which they are turned out these days by the factory, caml require a costy major over- haul after as little “LR-3°” as 10,000 miles of rough hand- ling. While high speed in itself is not necessarily hard on a car. constant rapid acceleration and braking is. It strains the trans- misslon. wears out the brakes and tires and soon creates body loosenesa. i! a road is rough and potholedâ€"slow down. Bum- py railroad tracks, for instance. will do a lot less damage to your car’s suspension and body tight- ness if driven over at 25 miles per hour than at 75 mph. Does ‘cowboy’ driving save time? To find out. two engineers recently sent two cars over the same route through a city. one driven carefully and the other ‘by a driver “in a hurry". 'The easy driver got 60 per cent more miles to a gallon of [as - 19.2 miles per gallon com.! pared with 12 - and lost almostnothing in speed for the econ- omy. Ills average speed was 2 per cent less and his tlme on the road 2 per cent more. While the cowboy. driver took 30 mln- utea to make the trlp. the care- !nl driver took 30.6 minutes. Careful drivers are poor ser- vice customers, but they are a pleasure to deal with when trade-1n time comes around.

With the members of the board, A. H. Arrell, chairman, and V. S.

Mr. Arrell stressed on several occasions that it was not the duty of his ‘board to act as plannersâ€"that was up to local authoritiesâ€"butt to safegalard existing interests of resid ts. He did, however, introduce one new angle In future, he said, the municipal board would insist on all “open space" zoning being defined as “temporary open space" unless land in question was owned by the municipality. The object. he said was to permit the owner to apply for new zoning when necessary. “Open space" is often only a description ap- ments seem to think they are - this would be a good plsce." said the deputy-reeve. The county had a defence set-up, he said, but the municipality had none. He said that courses were now being operated in Newmar- ket, covering rescue work and related activities. The cost would be heavy. Sen- ior governments were the ones which should give leadership, he declared. Councillor Charles Hooper felt that the proposed location of a large fall-out shelter under the railway was a good one. It was a good place, near schools, and could be instrumental in saving children. Reeve Dean also a- greed that the location was good and money could be saved by constructing a shelter while the railway was being built. 22% from Chairman Arrell that ai decision would be reserved.
