OFF CLUTCH AND THE BRAKE PEDILS WHILE. DIU A Sarge number of drivers keep the feet on the clutch and brake pedals all the time they are driv- ing. This is a very bad habit. In the case of the clutch, this habit causes the clutch collar to wear and become very noisy. It also tempts you to slip the clutch when you wish to slow down, instead of changing to-a lower gear. If you slip the clutch constantly in this way, the clutch plates or faces wear very rapidly, and soon. you are troubled with either a slipping clutch or, one that grabs every time and will not act smoothly. If you keep your fovt on the brake pedal all the time, vou are Hable to cause the brakes to drag. Keep your feet off these pedals but have them in such a position that you can reach the pedals instantly. 2.2 ? Wyoming Motorwa: vrtr?

CLEVELAND, 0,, Juno 7.—The use of motor trucks in hauling freight from sub-stations to main stations has been inaugurated by Brie railroad. The trucks are re- placing ferry or ,trapp car service. The road expects, through the new system, to save 24 hours in handling inbound and outbound freight. in less than carload lots, This is the second move on the part of the rail- roads in this section to co-ordinate Yai and truck transportation. The New York Central officials report satisfaction over the way the plan of picking up less than carload freight between Cleveland and But- falo is working and plans to extend the system to Toledo. Most of the northern Ohio steel plants are work- ing at a 50 to 60 per cent of capacity. Hupmobile Highway Bridge 135 Feet Above River Is Opened GUNNISON, Colo.. June 7.
