AFFIC While in Toronto for a few days last week and this we spent the better part of an hour watching various police ofl’icers regulate trall'ic. The manner in which the Exhibition crowds are handled is marvellous. The police, and espec- ially the traffic ott’icers, seem to be more concerned with keeping the trall‘ic on the move than with any petty infringements of the Motor Vehicles Act. In other words, they use good judgment rather than law. We saw motorists disobey trail'ic rules; they were, Vlsitors tol Toronto. got 011' with a warning, and the oll'icer on duty went out of his way to show where the mistake was made. . We spent some time and had quite along conversation with one of the police on duty at the Union Sta- tion. He said the manner in which some: motorists handled their cars was almost criminal, but so long as they kept out of trouble and tried to obey the trail’ic laws he made no arrests. Out of town peeple, and especially those from the country and smaller towns were the worst. They were not willing” offenders, rel LL-.. 111(‘3 "v 5" “U- ________ V _ and appeared more bewildered than anythiig else. These were given every assistance in straightening out their traffic difficulties, and despite this apparent laxity on the part of the police force the tvafi‘ic ___:Ll- A M;n;m11m r“-' --'- v~ , . was kept, moving with a minimum of t?t')l‘.gt"5[i011. One strong point present by the otficer was that thel pvlirv I'm-re was a friend t0 the' public rather than an enemy. In Cases ni‘ will‘ul negligence. however, the law is strictly enforced and we lltf'dl'l! one taxicab driver given a thorough calling down, with arrest. to follow if the olfenso was re- peated when he attempted to cut in on Front street and haul up to the station curb in contravention to the trall'ie rules. This fellow knows better amt knew full well he was wron" was the comment of the of- CO tire-r when we asked 0.90th it. After snme considerable time in observing the manner in which the police force worked. we came away more impressed than ever with the truth of the old statement that, there are more ways of killing a cat. than choking: it with melted butter. The Toronto police get, the law enforced. kindly if they can, but forcibly if they must. and the motorist is given PVM'y chance to make good. T HE BIG SHOW The Toronto Exhibition has been on for the past week or ten days and is drawing larger crowds than ever. The show this year is good. and though the grandstand per- formance is said to lack the quality of other years. it. is still good and anyone attending certainly gets a full quarter‘s worth. Labor Day this year all attemiancerecorc‘ls for any one day were broken with 260,000 paid admissions and up to Tuesday of this week the big show lacks only 118.000. for a total of 1,500,000. This year will doubtless see the C. N. E. eclipse all attendance records un- less something nnt‘orseen happens to interfere. The (3.. N. E. is a great show, the biggest and best annual show in the world. l t Ul'R WEEK OFF Most weekly papers throughout Ontario take a week off each sum- mer. This practice has never been followed by The Chronicle. but with this week's issue we feel that- we possibly might as well have fal- len in line and cancelled this week‘s issue. \Vith t\\'o-tl'iircls of the staff at. the Toronto Exhibition. there is little doubt that this issue will not measure up to the usual standards attempted. and it’ our readers notice any particularly alarming mistakes or any dearth of news. they may at» tribute it to too much of the Johnny J. Jones Midway and the thousand and one attractions at Canada‘s big fair. The Chronicle returned home in sections this year. The first two arrived Monday night. while the third and final section (lid not put in an appearance until Tuesday a!- Thursday September 8, ternoon. DIED Mauraâ€"In Durham Hospital, Sat- urday.

RULES THE WAVES!” â€"The Star, London, Eng. Use the good roads to see communities outside your own immediate neighborhood. Get acquainted. Take in Fall Fairs you never saw before. Inspect the best that different localities produce. Or attend a district ploughing match. Ontario has plenty of interesting events every autumn. Improved highways take you almost everywhere you want to go. You are contributing towards the cost and upkeep. Use themâ€" but use them in a common sense manner. The Department asks the co-operation of every motor car driver in keeping the .highways safe. Avoid ' excessive speed. Even when within the present speed limit, slow down at curves and intersections with railways or .other high- ways, near schools and at all points of possible danger. Watch your brakes. Your life or the lives of others may depend upon the efficiency of your brakes. See that your headlights do not glare. Glaring headlights are illegal. They are a positive menace. Have your headlights tested or send for simple instructions which the Department supplies free. BE COURTEOUS to others on the road. Though you may be within your legal rights, do not insist if others are inconvenienced or endangered. Be sure you always have your Motor Vehide Operator’s License with you. If you drive moderately, and well within the law, your autumn trips through Ontario will be never-forgotten enjoyments.
