No Way of Avoiding the "Madding Crowd" We can never get people out of our eye. Wherever we go they are with us, great crowds of them. They have (Hied up the subway before we arrive. They have packed the elevated train before we get there. They have Jammed every store before we decldo to go shopping. If we go Into a bank we are compelled to stand In Hue. If we want to buy a theater ticket we stand In line. If we want to buy a bunch of radishes we stand In line. No matter where we go there are a nun- - dred people ahead of us. They swarm like the frogs and locusts of ancient Egypt Egypt had ten plagues. We have only one. the plague of people. We could get on better with them If they were not so close to us. They elbow us and Jostle us and shove us and step on us. Even when we get them out of our eye they tarry in our ear. When we go Into the Inner chamber and shut the door, we cannot shut it tight enough to keep out the rounds of people. We hear them day and night "Night" is only a poetic expression, for New York city is like the New Jerusalem. There Is no night there. A Illbllcal writer informs us that once upon a time there was si-lence in heaven about the space of half an hour. No one has ever made such a statement about New York. Rev. Chorles E.

"The first 500 miles or so Is the most important period in the life of a new automobile, and the manner in which the car Is driven at that stage determines to a large extent the kind of future service it will give. "The parts of a new car are care-fully and accurately made, but Just as a pair of new shoes must be 'broken in' oefore fitting comfortably, so these new parts must also be Id order to Tunctlon properly. "Uigh points on the bearing must be smoothed out, tool and grinding marks gradually worn away, a high polish acquired." Expert Advice. This is the statement of David Gregg, resenrch engineer, who pro-ceeds to give some expert advice about breaking In new automobiles. To quote Gregg in part: "First follow explicitly the manu-facturer's directions for the 'break-ing In' period, which usually Is 5(MI miles. After tills period, and when the engine Is warm, occasionally ac-celerate up to 40 or 45 miles nn hqur Immediately the speedometer registers 40 or 45 slow down to around 35 miles an hour. This enables the oil to circulate freely among the moving pa rts. "The short bursts of speed permit the parts to become accomodated to full load operation without danger of burning or sticking, which miplit occur with continued high speed run-ning. Complete Check. "At the end of the first 1,000 miles the car should be driven back to the dealer for a complete check. See that the valve adjustment Is correct, the compression even In all cylinders, the distributor contact points checked. The operation of the steering gear and alignment of the front wheels should be checked, and be sure the nuts which hold the wheels on the rear axle ore tight and without sign of looseness. "A car properly broken In and regu-larly checked at a good service sta-tion should give many thousands of miles of enrefree operation at a mini-mum of expense." ."
