and a length of rubber tubing to siphon off gasoline
for use as fuel. Hub caps may also be used as containers.
Your kit should also contain matches dipped in wax
and sealed in a water-tight container, two or three
chocolate bars, and candles to help warm the inside
of the car should you run out of gasoline.
Keep your "survival kit" in a water repellent box or canvas bag.
Your actions during the first few hours of being
stranded are vitally important.
Here are six points that the snowbound motorist should
observe for safety's sake, plus one to be observed if it
appears he might be, and still another that will help him
avoid the problem. --

3. Light a fire by dous-

branches or blankets. If not

wind break.

5. Prepare a water supply
by melting snow or ice. Eat-
ing ice or snow can , cause
dehydration. You can live
for days without food but
water is essential.

6. STAY PUT. If you wan-
der, you might become lost
and freeze. Keep active by
replenishing your fire, and
wait for help to arrive. If
you are well off the beaten
path, wait until the weather
has settled down before you
start looking for help.

7. As you are travelling
in your car, a good habit is
to make a mental note of
buildings' that may afford
protection and serve as land-
marks.

ports and highway condi-
tions with local authorities
before setting out.

Winter driving can be

if you become stranded,
Being properly equipped and keeping one's
Every winter there is invariably a news flash con-
cerning a heavy storm that has stranded thousands of
motorists along some snow-clobbered road. Most car
owners involved in such a nightmare are unprepared
for such a harrowing experience.
The Canadian oil firm Pacific 66 has prepared a list
of "Do's" and "Don'ts" to assure survival in a snow-
bound car.
YOUR CAR
Have your car completely winterized, with special
attention to ignition, antifreeze, battery and cables,
radiator hoses and cap, fan and power belts, snow tires,
including spare tire, and all lubricants.
THE SURVIVAL KIT
Carry a first aid kit, traction mat, blanket, scraper,
sand, and a shovel. In emergencies you may use your
hub caps as shovels.
Warm clothing should include heavy socks, mitts, a
good pair of snow boots, snowmobile suit and heavy
duty sleeping bag.
It's also a good idea to carry a tool kit, spare fuses,
