[Roads ule; P ruits. the Free for | | away nearly eleven days and motored 4 first*¢ity we came to was Bellingham, ] Fonstally: "J Ice Cream." By R. M. HOLTBY Editor Port Perry Star, Dear Sir: Well, I arrived back at Vancouver yesterday afternoon and started for home last night. We were about 9%, spent 1% days at Los Angeles and Pomona Fair, covered 8266 miles in the time and visited the best Holstein herds, = 487, 891 and 876 miles were our best days. We had a six cylinder McLaughlin car. Never ran over 51 miles an hour and seldom 'less than 80, only through towns, and generallly from 35 to 47 miles per hour, All cars travel at least 10 miles faster in the U. S. A. than in Canada and it is noticeable the minute you cross the border. Car after car passed us when travelling 46 miles and I saw cars running over main streets of Tacoma over 50 miles, Just where the end or the possibilities of the gas engine will lead, who can tel. There is a regular line of busses running from Portland to San Francisco, a distance of 900 miles, 800 of which is through mountains There is a motor car for every five persons in California, so that the state could all move out at the same time. Cars are so thick in Los Angeles that there must be 100 or more corners where the traffic and street cars and pedestrians, along with motor cars move in blocks. Motors licenses only cost. $3.00 each in California for any kind of a car. ; Last week I gave you what I saw on some signs. There are some more, "Y Not Eat", Auto Stop Inn", "Hello Bill, Jiook at your gas", Hi-Way Grocer", All Nite Service." Hanging in big letter across the street in an Oregon town on a big sign "It's the Climate". On entering Madera Co., Cal, a large bill board read "Madera Co." "where every dime is a baby dollar", on leaving the County we read "Come and grow with. ys." On leaving Amity, this sign sure provoked a smile "Smile as you go." I think the most common sense one I ever saw for entering and leaving a town, if it were our town would read on one side "Entering Port Perry-- Welcome" and on the other side, "Leaving Port Perry, -next town is Whitby, 18 miles, on the other road Oshawa, 15 miles. Come again." Every motorist likes to know the dis- tance to the next place and this sup- plies it. The best Bank ad. I saw, if it were in Port Perry, would read "The Standard Bank of Port Perry is a Good Bank. Try it." This was on a large bill board entering a town. On the state highways, gasoline stations, models of architecture and neatness, are very numerous. The attendants dress in ~ white--cap, shirt and trousers; and as soon as your car stops at many of them your radiator cap is off and filled before you are out of the car the gas hose is in the tank, your oil is enquired about and if a chance is given at all your wind shield is cleaned, so dif- ferent.to many in Canada, where you have to look up the gas man to tell him your needs. Another gnique ad. so different to that practised by most used car deal- ers who do not want you to know the | former owner of a car, read: "A pedic gree with every used ear." -- On leaving the Canadian line the Wash., mostly a lumbering city; but known and called "Tulip | Town" because of the acres of bulbs grown to sell, many exported. Even the ice cream here is called "Tulip Flower seeds, bulbs and _garden "seeds are grown for seed on the 2| Pacific Coast mainly, I think, on ac- count of the long season and other suitable climate . conditions. This summer I saw thirty acres of Sweet Peas.on one farm on.Vancouver Is- land with the whole output sold to England a year ahead. Washington State is much like B. C., mountains and valleys, thousands of acres are still not cleared'since the forest was cut. Like B. C. the timber is large and it costs fr September 28, 1925 that can. give very few passengers.t -to be the highest mountain in the and climb by motor on one side go- | nia-as yet has no railings and some- ; Se Jartieuiar about 4 railing ont avery | 5 foot ditch. == Bank and self. DDD c hl Never Sell Grain on il a Dull Market T DOES not always pay to sell grain as soon as the threshing is finished . If you have a good crop and the market is depressed see the local manager of the Standard more favorable situation presents it- Our manager is always glad to dis- cuss such problems in confidence. STANDARD BANK OF CANADA. PORT PERRY BRANCH--H. G. Hutcheson, Manager arrange a loan until a I'D DD DED DDD DID many large chicken ranches, many small lots of dairy cows, gardens and sometimes some grain but never a large acreage. The cattle are about two-thirds Holsteins and the balance mostly Guernseys. The next city we note was Seattle. It is the niost hilly city T was éver in.' Many streets very steep, mountains all around but a good harbor. In the centre of this harbor lined up like soldiers are a great many boats, said to be over 100, built during the war for the French Government, but never accepted. There they stand, never used, looking old and one cannot help wondering what will be their final disposition. Tacoma is also hilly but ry as bad as Seattle and then we come to Port- land, Oregon. It is just across the Columbia river from Vancouver, Wash. They are connected by a very long, wide bridge on which they col- lect 30c. toll for a car to pass. It is said that in Portland nobody walks; and some say it always rains, whether that is so or not? 'It rained both days we were-there, It is a large city with a very congested motor traffic. - In busy hours street car and motor car all moving together three rows wide and folowing each other. Here is where the Pacific International Ex- position is held annually and they have a building all under one roof covering 11 acres. The state of Oregon is mountain- ous, farmers have small holdings and have mostly a few Jersey cows, once or twice we saw 10 but mostly 8 or 4. and here we first saw prunes growing. They are much like a plum but much sweeter and there are hundreds of acres of them, many being grown on the hills and mountain sides. Between Tacoma and Seattle in Washington - we saw . hundreds of acres of Raspberries and they ad- vertise it as the greatest berry place in the world. From what I have seen it is, Very often in those two states and in Northern California we .canie across 'large and well built fox ranches. °: The largest one was in California owned by the U, S. A. Government. On the corner of one we read 500 foxes for sale. We had a paved state highway all the way to the California line, here we struck 100 miles not finished. It is very wide and straightened ready » I take it, for paving. » The south part of Oregon and the North part .of California is mount- ainous for about 300 miles and only one break where we ran into a ranch- ing country on the flats or valleys growing alfalfa by irrigation to feed the cattle in the winter. Cattle here are mostly Herefords with a mixture of other breeds; even an odd Holstein. Here we passed Mount Shasta, about 10,000 feet above the sea level, half of it covered with snow and said world from base to top as there are no others at its base. Through these mountains we went over the top of Mt. Siskiyon, 4,516 feet above-the sea level and we climb ing back amd forth four times but wide but traffic thick and you are winding all the time. Lookéd like making the letter 5 all the time, times you look down almost straight 1000 feet.

Port Perry Girl Honored ° Miss Isabel Lucas has been elected First Vice President of the "Fresh- ronto;-and by virtue of 'the office be comes the President of the First Year Girls. We are very glad to hear that Miss Lucas has received the highest honor in the gift of her fellow students. This initiation ceremony was in- teresting as will be seen by the following description. I will always remember last night as one of the greatest evenings of my life--the initiation. Victoria is very superior to some colleges in this, as her initiations are intellectual and not physical. In the form of a mock trial consisting of charges against freshies--and songs, ete. After that everybody went to the tea room in Annesley Hall and eats were served. Then THE part of the evening happened. The Sophomores (2nd. yr. students) Jvere all lined: up:in a long row in one side of the tea room, and the freshies on the other side, with the President of the Sophs. leading their line. They were dressed in their gowns, and the president héld a brass lantern with colored glasses in it. After it was lighted the two lines marched up two by two to the main corrider it Annes- ley .Hall There we separated, and each of we presidents led our line in opposite directions, meeting again at the centre, marching up the stairs to the second floor where the Dean of the College dons, heads of the various houses, and some of the faculty awaited us. °~ Again we separated, and marched slowly around, and when the president of the Sophs., and I the president of the freshies, met, the 1 lines stood still, and everything was very quiet. Then the president of the Sophs. made a §péech telling the tra- ditions of this "Lamp of Learning" and how it was 'passed on down to us with their blessing. Then I replied * accepting this "Lamp of Learning", saying, that we each of us would con- sider it a promise to uphold these traditions, and that it would be our most sincere desire to maintain as noble an example as the seniors had set. Then I carried the lighted lamp in and out of the Sophs. while they sang a song welcoming us into the college. Then we went down to the'Common blowing out the lamp.
