THE FINGER-POST. By Mrs. Henrv Dudeney. New York: Milton, Balch Co. Mrs. Dudeney’s novel is built around one of those 6dd members of a family |or community, a person marked for | speclal curfosity and interest by vir- tue of his unlikeness to his surround- ings. This is the story of Joseph Durrant, sacond son of James mu--l | |rant—those Durrants who for meny generations hava been thatchers fn} the pleasant lands of south England. Very proud of their calllng and its ng tenure, these simple Durrants. 1 but Joseph—a sickly lad with teelings so different from those of hid nily, with an outlook 8o startling, for a Durrant, that he becomes an tands figure, toward whom much of speculation rune.

Justwhat that means in petforming essen- tials can only be understood when you drive the car yourself, or ride in it while someone else drives.

(Prepared by the public information committee of the Automotive Trade Association.) Using the car for rccreational purposes in Midwinter is a new idea in car ownership that is gaining favor. Every one knows that the automobile is the most versatile out- door form of recreation for the greatest number of people, and there has never been any question of the urgent need for recreation in January and February. The new plan merely fits the two facts together. With the @evelopment of the closed car it is possible to obtain recreation on days when motoring waa formerly productive of suffering. This is aifeady making a great difference with peopls who ordinarily dread the two worst Winter months Never bafore has the automobile been so important a factor in Winter outdoor life. Not only s It & recreation in itself but a means to further forms of Winter health bullding. Thousands of people would not be taking in thelr Winter sports nor Xeeping up their gymnasium work were It not for the great coivenience of the automobile. Basing the value of Winter motoring on the immediate financial returns is a popular delusion’that is fast losing ground. Some local motorists who put their cars away for the Winter huve already changed their minds and brought them down to the iirst floor again. The sutomobile can keep away Winter illneases if you use it intelligently. Why, then, even consider its dollar valus as trans- portation? Washington Boiling Radiators Just as Dangerous Winter or Summer Every year some motorist rediscovers the fact that since alcohol In the cooling system lowers the boiling point, stearn from a radlator on a very ccld day does not necagearily mean that the engine is very hot.

Letting the engine run during short stops on very cold days has its ad- vantages, but the radiator shutters should be left open at the time. An- idling engine heats up quickly, partic- ularly when there is no cold alr coming in through the core of the radiator. With the shutters open a safe tempera- ture can be maintained ‘The new Clarlton garage, constructed and to be operated by the Wardman interests, was formally opéned last week.
