THE COLBORNE EXPRESS "Drive Safely" Means "Many Happy Returns" To Ontario Motorists Toronto, May 23. -- Enthusiastically comjnending the current campaign of highway safety being sponsored fry Hon. T. B. McQuesten, Ontario Minister of Highways, 'the Indii-'i rial Accident Prevention Association is this week making a cooperative contribution in furthering the move to reduce motor accidents. According to- R. B. Morley, I.A.P. A. general manager, his oiganizatiom is distributing 25.000 copies of a safety booklet entitled "Majny Happy Rielturne--And How to Enjoy Them." These pamphlets will be distributed to employees of more than 5,000 in-dustral plants- tbroughoult Ontario. "If you wiamt your -returns to be happy," says 'this booklet, "be as generous as possible to other motor, ists. If they annoy you. it's probably beaausia 'they're tired and worried-- or just possibly because you are. "And please- don't forget that to the crazy driver in front you may be the crazy driver behind. It isn't youir fault if all other road users are completely daflt, but it is your fault if you aren't prepared for them to he so. "Be extra helpful to motorcyclists. They're mostly young, and they're much more vulnerable than you are --in fact there's nothing much between t'hemi and almost anything. "And be as kind as possible to bicyclists. Many of them would give a lot to change seats with you, especially if you drive past them rather' close and rather fast. "Remember, too, when you dim your lights, that the cyclist you run into isn't the one you see--but the one you don't. • "Be extra considerate to pedestrians'-- this may include your parents, your children, the fellow who is going to save your life some day. people who have just fallen wonderfully in love wiith each ether, and, on occasions, yourself. "Be especially kind to old people. They don't always act very quickly or in quite the way you expect, and they don't always hear so well-- which is sufficient, hardship without trying to cope with tinaffic. "If the worst happens, the fact that you may be exonerated from blame won'tmake you or anyone else much happier. "Please remember that children seldom behave like grown-ups. Children are carefree, not careless--and lirt's hard that they should have to differ just because they are children. "Don't forget that when travelling at 40 mles an hour, you can hardly pull up in less than 100 feet--and a child that rums out suddenly, or from behind a post or tree, may not know these figures. "Rememlhelr, too, that it isn't the regular wad-bog' thai clauses all the accidents: tit is only too often- the average person ar average experiencei who takes average care when he! happens to relax his average often-1 tion. "Although the average motorist would always risk his life (and his; passengers) to save the li child, it shouldn't be necessary to do sio--especially i'.f it's a second Vox Nostrae Scholae n. of her first year ; At the of ting, Mai Archer is- in the Cobourg General Hospital, ous operatloni for appendicitis laist week.

Outer Mongolia is the noirthern section which has of late the control of Russia and has been made into a sort of .socialistic republic.

The only way to prove that you drive well enough to avoid laocidienlts is not to have any.

Tent Caterpillar mtrol tent Now is the time 1 caterpillars. The whitish webs constructed by the insects are only too commonly seen on neglected fruit trees, and on roadside trees, especially wild cherries. The caterpillars may be readily killed by spraying infested trees with lead arsenate 2 lbs. in 40 gallons of water, or by destroying the tents by hand when the caterpillars are inside them, which is usually on cloudy days and early in the morning. Burning the nests with a torch is very effective, but care must he taken not to hum the tree. It is possible to destroy these tents early and thus save labor and loss of fruit. Canadian Hams Popular Canada displaced the United States in 1937 as the largest supplier of hams to the British market. The Dominion sold 3114,606 owts. to 'buyers in Great Britain. Imports of hams from Empire countries increased by 10 per cent in 1937, and represented 49 per cent of the total imports of hams as compared with 45 per cent in 1(936. Shipments from Canada were 13 per cent higher, while those fromi Ireland declined 31 per cent. Canadian hams are appreciated chiefly on account of their high quality. Outer Mongolia at the prese: /'No one, unless he is a Mo _ a Soviet citizen, or perhaps a Soviet sympathizer with adequate credentials, is allowed to enter this forbidden land." No reason is given for thus closing the country, but 'been suggested that the regime of the country might be endangered by free contact with the outside world. Inner iMbngolia forms a orescent to the south of Outer Mongolia. Just east of this region res Manch-ukuo. peopled by the -eastern Mongols -and governed by Japanese policy. This province is nominally self-governing. The Japanese objective seems to be the wimining of Inner Mongolia away fnom Chinese to Japanese allegiance. "Thus are the Mongols, once rulers of all Asia, become the pawns of international' rivalries in the struggle between Russia. Cliin-a and Japan. Manchuria ha.s p'as-s'ed under Japanese dominion. Outer Mongolia has-been- absorbed fry Russia. Amd mow China reels back before the onslaught of the Japanese, who have pressed iforward into Inner Mongolia so as to drive -a wedge 'between China amd the Soviet, -amd to outflank the Red Re> public of th© outer Mongols." To many of us it comes a-s prise to hear that the Mongols and the Chinese "are as different from each other as round felt tents and foursquare mud huts." Clothing, food, language and habits of life are all at variance. The Mongols- are horsemen, wand ering over the plains, and living what seems to be a free and romantic life. They have a strict social pattern in which ome'is own place and the place of others is realized so completely that awkwardness and unsureness are avoided. To the itor, this fact, gives "an impression 'Of personal independence." The land is held in common by "Banners" which seami to approximate westetrn "tribes." The chief festivities are connected with the "obo" on1 cairn that marks the bounds of the Banner's land. Suoh fe-sfvities are usually held in the -summer and begiml with prla-yers and sacrifices. After these ceremonies 'have been completed, the games are held. Horseiraci'mg is -iiopu-ter, .but (the greatest Mongol sport is wrestling. Mongol wrestling is, however, of a different nature from that practised here- The description of it is too inti nesting to be omitted. "Bach couple advances 'and does a rever-en'ee to the presiding dignitaries amd small alteur set out in the square, and them the men close. No holds are barred and kicking is allowed, but not striking with the fist. The costume consists of a leather jacket, studded .with round bra-sis mails; trousers, usually covered with a kind of over-all. a separate one for each leg: amd the heavy Mongol boots, which have been stiffened with fiart pieces of wood inside. As a rule the grasp each other by the should-sieewos or armhoies of the jacket amid lock heads, straddling wide apart.
