This column regularly receives
letters from readers who have
questions. This week we’ll answer
a few of them.
Q. “Does it take any longer to
stop a (big) car than a (small)
car?” BP, Chicago.
A. No. Under the same road
conditions, it takes no longer to
stop a Cadillac than a Volkswag-
en from the same speeds.
Here are some other, little
known facts about stopping: You
can stop your car faster on dry
pavement by depressing your
brake pedal and holding it there
than by “pumping” it. And, a
car with new tires stops no fast-
er than a car with bald tires—
on dry pavement. On wet pave-
ment, however, new tires stop
faster. So do the cars using them.
Q. “I’ve heard they’re trying
to get all highway signs to mean
the same thing everywhere. They
might be making progress in the
cities, but I don’t see much
change (in the country).” TL,
Rome, Georgia.
A. It’s beginning to appear like-
ly that the U.S. Bureau of Pub-
lic Roads will get caught with
its pants down on January 1,
1967, the deadline it set for it-
self for nationwide uniform sign-
ing. Farthest behind are rural
roads, where new signs, especial-
ly reflective signs that glow at
night, are needed most. Have you
ever driven through a rural in-
tersection before you even saw
it?
Q. “Are any electronic highways
being built (or) . . . scheduled
to be built anywhere?” RC, Pasa-
dena, California.
A. No—as far as we know. Spe-
cifications for such a highway sys-
tem were drafted by students at
Massachusetts Institute of Tech-
nology recently. Entering elec-
tronic roads, drivers of special
cars would push punched cards,
indicating destination, into boxes.
Then they would snooze as their
ears traveled at high speed, with-
out being steered, to garages
near their offices.
We think the MIT students
were sparking when they thought
of the electronic road—but they’ll
probably burt out their fuses be-
fore we see anything like it.

October is the month for rice
harvesting, and a record crop is
predicted, so why not team it up
with some good foreign food dish
for an after-the-game victory of
your own with the “rah-rah”
crowd?
Ideal buffet meals for enter-
taining the football fans can be
planned around a combination of
Shrimp Curry with rice, Chicken
Fricasse or Niw-Goo-Yok, the
Chinese name for Sweet and Pun-
gent Pork.
While you’re cooking rice, pour
in an extra cup to have enough
left for fried rice with the next
day’s dinner.

them by their right names. We
all have our little list of names
we like: Tired. Overworked. Un-
der-Great-Strain. Put-Upon. Cheat-
ed (a great favorite among the
young). Unlucky. Then there is an-
other list of names we all hate:
Hang-over. Selfish. Petulant. Jeal-
ous. Hotheaded. Lazy. Thoughtless.
Rude. How many times might the
evil spirits which possess us be
more easily exercised if we were
only wise enough or honest enough
or brave neough to call them by
their right names!”
These words made me think if
a woman I know who boasts to
her friends that she is a .very
frank person, and then in the name
of “frankness” she begins to con-
demn and besmirch others with
reckless abandon. The right name
be “character assassina-
The Right Name
One of the miracles of Jesus
was the healing of a man with an
unclean spirit, in which the spirit
was driven into some swine which
.were near at hand. In demonstrat-
ing His power Jesus .spoke direct-
ly to the demon within“What is
thy name?” It was a Hebrew be-
lief that if one were able to iden-
tify a spirit and call it by name
one could have power over it.
This is not far from our modem
conviction that if a doctor can ac-
curately diagnose an illness he has
gone, a long way toward its cure.
;, A wise observer of modern life,
tDr. John Verdery, has said: “I
.believe that we could often con-
trol the evil spirits which possess
us if we could or would only call
£§A§TTi
would
tion”. I think of a man I know
who in many situations says he is
acting “strictly on business prin-
ciples” and proceeds to deeds that
should accurately be called “cru-
el” and “inhuman.”
The same tendency was indicat-
ed in a recent newspaper account
of an automobile accident in which
it was stated: “The car failed to
make the curve.” Failed indeed,
but wasn’t someone driving the
car? How unconsciously we shift
our responsibility to people or
things beyond ourselves How hard
it is to be honest and call things
by the right name!

The prayer of faith shall
save him that is sick.
—(James 5:15).
We can use our faith to help
others in sickness, as well as
ourselves. Our prayers can be
like lights in the darkness be-
cause our affirmations of God-
life can bring His healing
presence to the side of the one
in need of Him.
