He says that in the future something serious may result where an automobile {fs signal d to ssop and it 1s not cbeck- ed in {ta course. One man intimates that ‘he may vo 80 far as to carry & six'shooter and with it perforate the tires of the machines, if more judi- clous} handling of the care isn’t offer- ed.
