Page Four THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, THURSDAY, JULY 5th, 1928 Tou can tell a good driver by the mileage he gets from his tires SOME fellows are sure rough on tires--slam on the brake and slide a yard or two in stopping-- drop in the clutch and spin the rear wheels in starting--speed round corners and skid. It may save a few minutes running time--it may even look a little "showy" to the man on the sidewalk--but the real driver knows that it means miles off the running life of the tires. Good tires will give unbelievable miles of service if you treat them right. Drive sanely. Come in and let us put the gauge on the valves once a week--under inflation means certain trouble. Let us examine the casings regularly for embedded flints and nails. This service will save dollars on your year's car expense. DOMINION TIRE DEPOT W. J.

The advent of the "Duchesses" gre"atly increases the passenger and freight services maintained by the , Canadian Pacific on the St. Lawrence route. The schedule of passenger sailings had already been increased this summer by speeding the "turn about" of 1 the Empresses from a four-weekly basis to meet the ;xpected expansion of traffic.
