Mrs. Chester Mills has been directing the joint safety program of the Lady Elks. The May safety theme of the Price Elks has been Vehicle Maintenance and each driver is urged to keep his car in good mechanical condition because checking your car checks accidents and safe driving can become as much a habit as reckless driving. Mr. Porter continued the Elks concluding safety message with the following: When you think something isnt working right, have it fixed. But you should have your car checked thoroughly by a competent mechanic every so depending upon your cars condition. The law says your car shall be in safe mechanical condition at all times. 'Many states, including Utah, now have compulsory vehicle inspection programs that require a safety inspection at various intervals. But, whether your inspection is voluntary or not, the vital question is, "Am I carrying out my responsibility as a safe driver? You should be certain your brakes are holding well and your lights are aimed properly. Your steering mechanism should not have too much play, and there should be no seriously worn spots or smooths areas on your tires. These are the big four safety check points. Other safety equipment that should 'be checked, and repaired or replaced if necessary, are rear and stop lights, wind-oft-en shield wipers, mufflers, window glass, horn and rear view mirror. But, in the final analysis, all of your cars safety equipment is important. Each is like a separate link in a chain it takes all of them working properly to make your car operate really safely. Driving in the streets and highways is hazardous enough with out doing it in an unsafe car. So be good to yourself. Be a good driver . . . and to check accidents, check your car regularly. Make safe drivftig a habit, Mr. Porter concluded. The June safety program will be under the auspices of the New Century club with Mrs. Merlin Hays as the safety program chairman. The June safety theme will be Speed Control. ... ter part of of August.
