THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 26, 1929 'PAGE TWENTY-FIVE See Ontario First is A Good Sl r the Summer Vacation Season's Series of Safety Speeches Over Radio Started Says Motorists Should See To It That Their Cars and "Trucks Are Maintained in Safe Running Condition and That They Are Run Safely with Regard to Conditions ~Urges Motors to Enjoy Ontario's "Great Outdoors." "The Highway Safety Committee, with the Hon. George S. Henry as chairman, {is 'continuing its cam- paign to maintain the safety of the roads and streets of Ontario for the motorist, his passengers and the pedestrians," said Dr. P. KE. Doolittle, president of the Canadian Automobile association, by way of introducing the first of the season's series of safety radio addresses. "The Hon, GG Howard Ferguson, prime minister of the province, is taking an energetic and active part In: this movement. In his capacity of minister of education, he asked school teachers of the province, for the co-operation of all the school teachers of the province, In instructing the pupils in safety matters. To assist in this phase of the campaign, teachers are be- Ing supplied with a series of talks to the pupils, and the pupils with blotters containing rules of safety for children on streets and high- ways. "An elaborate and intensive stu- dy of the subject by -this commit- tee, extending over a number of years, demonstrates that accidents on the highway can be largely avoided by the observance of a few simple rules, "The first rule is that the ma- chine shall be in perfect mechan- cal condition. It must be ahle to stop. Nearly every motorist is con- cerned with the 'getaway' of his automobile. He should be equally concerned with its ability to stop within reasoflable distance, and the manner in which it operates its steerng gear. "Brakes should be tested con- stantly, The brake that is operat- ing efficiently today sometimes will be loose tomorrow. It is be- ter to fix your brakes before you start out on the road, than to wish you had fixed them after you find they will not stop your car, "Steering gear is another im- portant part of the automobile. A car that will not steer is the most dangerous vehicle on the high- ways. Parts of the steering gear become worn after the automobile climbg up in mileage, The steer- ing gear should be examined care- fully at stated periods, depending upon the age of the car. "And then there #s the headlight which creates a danger not only to the driver of the car, but to all others on the highway. The glare in headlights is not due so much to the type of lens, or the size of the bulb, as it is to the manner in which the bulb Is inserted in the headlights, There is-a simple method for testing and adjusting headlights so that: they will not glare, 'The Department of Highways will gladly send to anyone who writes for it, a copy of a folder de- HEARST SAULT STE MARIE (hikes), % STECL AND PAPER) X bprr> CAN.

Better still, take your car to your garage and have your lights tested by an expert mechanic. "You cannot expect that you are going to be safe in today's volume of fast moving traffic with an unruly car, or a car that is a menace to yourself and to others because of its blinding headlights, "Then there are other simple rules that apply to the operation of the car on the highway, The most important rule of all is never try to pass an- other car unless there is a place ahead on the right side of the road that you can easily reach before be- ing met by oncoming traffic, This ap- plies on straight pieces of road but particularly to curves and near the tops of hills, where the vision ahead is obscured, "When you take a chance by get- ting over the left side of the road in the face of oncoming traffic, you place in a position of greatest danger, |' not only yourself and your passen- gers, but the occupants of two other cars as well, The side-swipe is one of the most serious forms of motor collisions, "Be careful in driving through vil- lages and anywhere children or other pedestrians 'may be using the high- way. The people in the villages and towns of the Province of Ontario are glad to welcome you. They have spent large sums of the local taxpayers' money to connect their streets with the though highways. Apart from every other consideration, the least that the motorist can do in coming through these cities and towns, is to show his appreciation of the streets and roads provided for him by obey- ing the law in regard to speed and care. "The great outdoors of the Prov- ince of Ontario is calling you to town and countryside, to lake and stream and virgin wood. Use the highways. They were built for your use. Enjoy the glorious heritage of hill and dale, water and woods, with which nature has so bountifully endowed this great Province, "But, in your travels, exercise Care, Courtesy and Common Sense at times." British Wom~n in Canada Doing Well British young women who have come to Canada under the auspices of the colonization department of the Canadian National Railways, have in recent letters expressed their gratiude for he manner in which they had been placed, and their happiness in their new life. One young lady writes from Vancouver: "I have arrived safe- ly in Canada after my wonderful trip. I shall never forget ft. Every one was so kind and the best of everything. I am pleased to say I have been very lucky in getting a nice place. I feel quite happy and settled down." Another writes from Alberta: "I have been in Canada since last April. I like it very much. I am grateful that you helped me out here. I live with French-Canadi- ans on a farm and receive $256 per month." A woman in Ontario who came out to Canada to join her husband under the assisted passage scheme writes that "We are settled down here and are very comforable. I do no think I will ever regret com- ing out to Canada. We had a most delightful trip and received every consideration." A young lady who came out from Glasgow writes very frankly from her ne whome in Vancouver thanking the C.N.R. officials for aiding her in getting to Canada. She is getting $45 a month as cook in a Vancouver family, and says: "I cannotr ealize why more girls and men who walk the streets of Glasgow daily don't come oue here, for I am ' certain there Is every prosperity for them in this coun- try." This young woman has been in Canada but ten months and appears to be getting on yerv well. More han a score of such let- ters have recently been received by the supervisor of the women's branch of the C.N.R. colonization staff in London. THREE STRAW HATS "RIGHT" FOR SUMMER "Your bonnet to its proper use!" said Shakespeare. And the Style Committee of the Hat Institute trans- lates the sentiment into this: "Your straw hats to their proper uses!" For it seems that one straw is not enough for the well-dressed man's summer wardrobe. In other words, men's hats have gone 'chic' Correctness and con- servatism sound the keynote of man's crowning glory. Hatbands are subdued, a decided reaction from the jazz-bands of last summer. The plain dark band of brown, . blue or black is the acme in taste, club stripes or collegiate stripes, these too, are restrained, with the color in pin stripes against a dark background. As for crowns, they are high, at least half an inch taller than last year's, The three hats, decreed as essen- tial by the Style Committee, are these: The yacht sailor for business: the China split with the dinner jacket; the Panama, Milan or leg- horn for sports. Nor tiay these hats be worn interchangeably. To wear your yacht sailor on the links is.an unforgivable social error, only sec- ond to wearing a Panama with din- ner clothes, There you have them--the "p's and how the well-dressed man should crown his head this summer. blush with chagrin, when the sweet creature of your dreams raises her cye-brow at some disastrous faux all And if you are partial to | This working models shows the new Taylor rapid transit system of endless passenger belts and how they would be installed in a sub- way with regulating turnstiles and wickets, Space would be provided sll on station platforms and in pas- sageways for shops.

And cherry time is in the offing. For once there is no need for the harassed house- wife to wrack her brains about a dessert that will please the children, The fruit laden trees and bushes are the answer, When the first strawberries, rasp- berries and blackberries appear the family is delighted to cat them served with cream. But when the novelty wears off the children, big and little, become somewhat bored with a simple dish of berries, no matter how luscious they may be Here, then, is a variation on the berry and cherry theme. It is called "Orange Angel Food Surprise," a delightful summer des- sert, The recipe as given will serve six to eight, Dissolve one package of orange gelatin in one cup of boiling water and cool. Add one cup of orange juice. and two tablespoons lemon juice and chill, Cut a thin slice from the entire top of a stale angel cake and save, Remove some of the center, leaving the sides and bottom about one and one-half inches thick, Crumble the center into one cup of fine cake crumbs. When the orange jelly is cold and slightly thickened mix with the crumbled cake, Ar- range. the cake shell on a fancy plate and fill the center with alter- nate layers of orange jelly mixture and sugared sliced strawberries. Re- place the entire top of the cake care- fully and cover smoothly with white frosting. Arrange candied orange peel and whole strawberries alters nately as an ornan.ental garnish, As variations, cherry gelatin may be substituted with fresh red cher- ries, Or raspberry gelatin may be used with fresh raspberries, RUSH FOR LAND The land rush to Northern Alberta continues apace. It is reported by the Edmonton offices of the Canadian National Railways Colonization De- partment that approximately 1,000 new settlers with capital agregating more than one million dollars, had gone into the Peace Riyer country and Northern Alberta since the first of the year and up to the first week of April, It is estimated that during April alone nearly 1,500 settlers will settle in these districts, During the period of April 1 to 15, a total of 312 settlers with capital totalling $170,000 went to the Peace River dis- trict, Among these was one man with $20,000 capital, another with $14,000 and another with $12,000, ' Rush for Homesteads During the first quarter of the year 400,000 acres of government land were taken up by homesteaders in the four western provinces, an in- crease of nearly 100,000 acres ovef the same period of last year. Ind the period mentioned, 136 homesteads were taken in Manitoba, 994 in Sask atchewan, 1277 in Alberta and 96 i British Columbia, . Homesteading in Northern Alberta has been unprece« dented during this period. ' Edmonton's Record Every month so far this year has seen homestead entries at the Ede monton office double over the cors responding months last year, © For March alone, the total was 226, a% compared with 109 in March, 1928. Last year there were 3,370 home- steads filed on in the Edmonton dis- trict, an increase of 147 per cent over the previous year, There is every reason to believe that the increase noted so far this year will not only be kept up, but may even exceed that of 1928 over 1927, Even if the figurs only double, it will mean that close to 7,000 homesteads will be taken yp in this district alone, BOYS ARE MAKING GOOD Over 3400 boys ranging in age from 14 to 18 ycars of age, have been brought out to Canada under the aus- pices of the British Immigration and Colonization Association in five years, states A, L. Morison, secretary of the association, whose headquar= ters are in Montreal, The majority of them are making good. More than 600 haye been brought out already by the organization this year, pas.
