mobile bodies were tittle morethan
open wooden boxes on wheels.
But car bodies have undergone
an engineering revolution since
Grandpa gave up the reins and
took hold, of the stewing wheel.
Take such * basic item as the
windshield, which keeps eye-wa

reaching ihe driver and his pas
sengers. Modern motorists now
take this convdhience for granted,
but m bet many can still remem

Bodies at first were made en

of sheet steel nailed over wood
frames — a far cry hrom the weld

day’s passengers. (Meanwhile, cen
ters of gravity moved steadily
lower, giving cars greater stabi
lity.
Hundreds of safety features now
considered routine in the building
in the proper, safe use of firearms
and rifle marksmanship. Other
club activities will include fishing,

wildlife, conservation of natural
resources, safety and first aid.
