(Walter McKenzie photo) Better drivina habits save mune A few changes in driving habits could save money. The average driver in Ontario uses about 2500 litres of fuel per year. At 47c per litre, that represents almost $1200. If you could reduce that fuel expenditure by 15 per cent, you would save 5180 (after tax). Motorists can save 15 per cent by keeping their car in good order is a good way to start. Maintain tire pressure at the maximum for heavy loads shown in your owner's manual, and ensure that the ignition, mixture, and idle speed are set to manufacturer's specifi- cations. it also pays to drive within the speed limit. The difference in fuel consumption between driving at 120 km/h and 100 km/h is about 20 per cent. W,hile the time lost on a long trip is small, the fuel savings are significant. An imaginary glass of water on the dashboard can also help. Any water spilled from this glass while accelerating or decelerating represents waste. For example, fuel is wasted when a car is stopped abruptly; it is better to coast to a stop. Driving smoothly, maintaining a steady speed, and minimizing lane changes not only saves on fuel consumption, its safer too. Planning trips, and doing all errands at once will save fuel and by not driving as far, motorists will save time as well. Try to avoid BIRTHS SIMPSON: Doug and Cindy (nee Stewart) are pleased to announce the arrival of Daniel Lloyd Douglas, born Oct. b, at Clinton Hospital.

A gift o be cherished areas with lots of stop signs. Wherever possible, pick routes where there are synchronized traffic signals that let you travel in a °' green window". Contrary to popular myth it takes less fuel to stop and restart the engine than to leave it running, even briefly. - Pushing an empty roof rack through the air is a waste of gasoline. Open windows and sunroofs are other causes of additional air drag which increases your car's fuel require- ments. By closing windows and sunroofs and by removing unused roof racks, you will decrease your fuel consumption. if you need fresh air, open vents instead. You shouldn't be using your trunk to store what you don't need. No matter what the weight off the car itself, increasing weight by storing unnecessary items in the trunk,'such as snow tires or golf clubs, decreases fuel efficiency. Carrying such items only when necessary means fuel savings, Take note of a few hints when starting the car. Even at -20°C most cars need only 1S-30 seconds to warm up, It is only necessary to wait until the engine seems to be running smoothly before driving off gently. Any additional idling simply wastes fuel. Dagger an Toyland The Christmas season is here. And in many towns and cities, the Santa Claus parade has 'ushered Santa to his throne in local stores and malls. At home, the festive hustle and bustle has begun, and children are excited as the yearly ceremony of "putting up the tree" is drawing near, "it is a wonderful time for both children and adults alike, says Marybelle Ford, program co-ordinator of Huron -Perth Lung Association. But in the midst of happiness we would like to warn parents that possible tragedy lurks in the form of the brightly colored plastic ornaments dangling from the tree." The dangling ornament often entices the toddler to grab it, put it in his mouth. only to Obituaries realize that it isn't candy. Surprised, the youngster tries to .spit it out. But it cracks, and a portion of the plastic lodges in his windpipe or is inhaled into his lungs. This is a possible tragedy in the midst of fun. Aspiration of foreign objects is a leading cause of death and Injury among children 'under six years of age. The Lung Association suggests to keep preschoolers safe that: tiny ornaments not be placed on low tree boughs where a youngster can grab them; tell Santa Claus to bring presents thatdonot have button eyes or tiny car wheels that can come loose; keep small "finger food" such as peanuts and popcorn off low coffee tables when you entertain. Food also can be aspirated.
