What Bumpers Are For
A description of the methods which many American motorists adopted when they found there was insufficient space to park their cars was given by Mr. D. A. Ewen, district governor of Rotary for New Zealand, in a travel talk to members of the Invercargill Rotary Club. “If there is not enough room for his car, a motorist will just charge into the car in front until he has made room,’ said Mr. Ewen. When he questioned this habit, lie was told: “That is what bumpers are for.”
