ELECTRIC RAILWAY JOURNAL [September 22, ig17 ■■■liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii^ The Fundamentals. An Economy Meter be-fore a trained motormanis a constant inspirationand reminder of his re-sponsibility to conserveenergy in the operationof his car. Possible energy saving is the funda-mental reason for the use of any check-ing device installed to gain car-operatingeconomies. It will readily be admitted that theman who uses the least energy for agiven run is the most efficient and themost careful operator. Thus the logicalway to measure his efficiency is in termsof energy input, thereby showing himdirectly his power waste for one periodas compared with another. Certainly, any man competent tooperate an electric railway car can com-prehend the value of a understands the use of power, and hemust utilize it to run his car. He is cap-able of being trained to know when toshut off his power and when to make astop. Doing these correctly assuresmaximum economy. Thus the best wayto gain car-operating efficiency is tomaintain the motormans interest inpower economy. Take the me
