stanley steamer the car had stopped only a few minutes previously shooting off clouds of steam and heat still radiated from the boiler behind the stanley a lowslung green auburn roadster started up the raccoon tail on its hood or nament quivering further along the line a few teenagers sprawled on the running board of a lincoln v12 listening to the cars radio a prim 1914 model t seemed to be gathering its skirts in distaste for a racy- looking black-and- yellow ford v8 vintage of about 1934 it looked like a scene from a movie the st valentines day massacre say or little caesar a glistening black hupmobile bearing a plate saying repeal 18th amendment took you back to the days of the hip flask and the charleston there was really nothing sinister about it though all these cars and more a total of 51 vehicles were participating in the 14th annual normoska tour they were parked in a field north of uxbridge while their owners members of the historical automobile society of canada york region caught some sleep or wandered around chatting and drinking lemonade ive been par ticipating in these things since 1967 said club president norm helmkay but ive been in rallies on an informal basis since 48 his own contribution to this rally was a sky pilot was off course stouffville the stouffville stockyards limited employs two qualified auctioneers at the site every saturday a third is not required even if hes selling religion and his services are free thus james robertson of no fixed address was arrested by constable tom wauchope on a charge of vagrancy for robertson a selfappointed pre- cher it was a second appearance before judge russell g pearse in newmarket court a few days earlier he had promised the judge to leave york and never return but he got only as far as goodwood the first car to come along brought him right back to stouffville i didnt know where i was so how could i know where i was going he asked the judge he attributed the coincidence to the work of god there was some poor sinner in stouff ville 1 was obviously intended to save arent you aware the disciples were told to go out and preach the word by asking sinners to repent am i disturbing the peace judge as ye shall be judged judge pearse was not impressed his only problem was deciding what to do with the accused where would you like to go this timehe asked north east or maybe west robeiison said he didnt dare gv est as he had airea y been arrested once in mississauga well who- would you like to go skxi sir pearse anywhere shere are sinns iie preacher replied judge p rse ggested e county of simcoe p in a new area ihey might be more receptive following a light lunch in newmarket jail robertson was provided a police escort to the york boundarv limit driving a model t may be fun but cranking it is another matter mrs carl puterbough left and daughter wendy of uxbridge watch as owner charles emmans gives the motor a spin restored overland sedan a flawless dark- green in color norm specializes in willys products there arent many left he observed he points at a young couple nearby theyve come on the rally with a 14- week old baby this is completely a family- type club most of the members do all the work on their cars themselves safety regulations are strict this club requires safety glass in the windshield only we dont worry too much about the rear windows not yet anyway said norm each car must also have a safety check before going on the road these cars spend a lot of time on the road too last year five members took their vehicles to the maritimes they averaged about 5000 miles each charlie emmans has just finished restoring his model t and this is the first time hes come on a rally in an autombile charlie has three antique motorcycles the oldest dating back to 1900 to anybody under 30 the names may not mean much its a long time since anybody walked into a showroom to buy a new overland or nash but the cars themselves thats something else again the model t looking like it just rolled off an assembly line was built before world war i the creamcolored auburn 653 speaks of an era when the rich could ride in real luxury before high income taxes before the tinpot luxury of massproduced cad illacs and lin- coins these old cars are living memories of another and perhaps a gentler time norm helmkay is right there arent many of them left but those that survive lovingly tended by careful owners have a spirit of their own the oldsmobile sails serenely along at 25 miles an hour the driver of the auburn puts his foot down and pulls away from an impertinent chevelle ss whose driver svas trying to pass that old crock they dwindle off down the road a line of old cars with inherent beauty you cant go back again
