tile daytime and improper headlights at night the answer Is worth over lie he argues that eien though headlights are far better than they used to be theres still room for improvement the aaser to the problem does not come in dimming when the other drivers ap all pro aroah ah xh lie he contends dimming may he be considerate of others but it momentarily puts tile alie driver behind the dimmed lights light s into a dangerous blind spot all and 1 I that moment of blindness may cause an ac the entire difficulty as lie he sees it lies in improperly focused headlights this means danzer danger buth to the dilver aliher of the car and those approaching him too many car owners take it for granted that so ions as they can see to drle by their lights they are in proper condition alien the fact Is they may be casting a glare driving eulth one light out Is 19 another frequent but dangerous practice and ail one for ihie there Is no excuse since light bulbs are among the cheapest about a car if every eiery motorist would make it a rule to have hale ills his headlights focused and adjusted every eiery few months slid and would watch ills his lights as bosely I 1 ay as lie watches matches the air in ills his t tires accidents mould be reduced and a good many mani hies sated saied argues this local motorist and liis his argument Is worthy of the serious consideration of every man mho darhes an
