But after all, that's only what he thinks, and his idea may not be yours, A car is valuable to. you, not for what a dealer says about it, but be- cause of what it will do for you on the road. That's where your car will make you happy or unhappy. We have never been able to do justice to the Reo Six on aper. Words and pictures fall short. But on the road, where the-on y thing that counts is the merit of the car itself -- there is where you certainly know, first hand and for yourself, that this amazing Reo Six is a car after your own heart.

A flood of cold air, let us say, flows in above, occupy- ing a higher level. This is an uns stable arrangement, because the warm air, being lighter, would mature ally be on top. An atmospheric fuss results, and we have what is called | a thunderstorm, the warm air and cold air gradually commingling. But occasionally it happens that the cold flood above finds a weak spot, where the upward pressure of warm | air from beneath is less than else- where. This offers a hole through which the cold air can descend, and it pours through exactly as the con- tents of an unstoppered. basin of Water escaping through the vent hole. You have noticed the violent whirl- ing motion of water escaping in this Way; the same thing happens to the cold flood of air streaming down from above. The cold, descending, condenses the moisture in the lower stratum, and thus is formed a mass of wapor- ous air which assumes the shape of Toronto-Winnipeg- Vancouver "Trans-Canada Limited" From Toronto Every day at 9 p.m. "The Fastest Transcontinental "Traln in America Between Terminals" For Standard Sleeping Car Passengers Only Leave Kingston at 9.50 am.
