Young speed-fiend: “My roadster is the speediest little bus I’ve ever had. It has already paid for itself twice over in fines.”
A race track at Lune Park. Berlin, has been turned into a driving school, where new motorists are taught to drive free of charge.
A garage proprietor in the North Island recently asked an attendant to take a brass tack out of his tyre, which had become deflated. A small piece of brass was showing. The task proved more difficult than was expected, and finally a fire poker, about eighteen inches long, with a brass head, was taken out. The end of the poker had entered the cover and the whole had been forced in and conformed to the shape of the wheel.
