It is quite the com- mon practice to tow the faithful old crate to the lake bank and push it gently over, but this pro- cedure will have interesting varia- tions in future if the example of Dr. Francis Pearse, of Old Loudon, is followed. Dr. Pearse had a car which he bought nearly 30 years ago and which served him faithful. ly until 1927. When it came time 'to 'part with it, he treated 'it' more or less like a faithful old horse that had been worn out in service, and actually he had it ruried in a real grave. Dr. Pearse bought a plot of ground near a cemetery, 'Then he drove 'the faithful'old hus through the city streets to the bur- fal plot, and finally had it broken up and decently juteryed, An Ald to Vacationists With vacation days just a few automobile buying season is well under way and touring informa tion bureaus are refilling their bing with" maps and information season. The 1931 vacation sea- son will likely find more mokm tourists on the highways than any previous year in the history of the automobile. A contributing face tor to the increased popularity of motoring vacations this year is the fact that in the case of several cars, notably the McLaughlin. Ruick, there will not be new mod- els during the summer months, 0s has been their practice 'in past years. To thousands of motorists this means the ability to arrange vacation schedules earlier 'un the summer season instead of wa'ting until midsummer to purchase a new car for extended trips. The present line of 1931 MecLaughlin- Buick Straight Eights will be con. tinued throughout the summer and fall months and thousands of own- ers who usually buy new cars Iu August and September are mak- ing their purchases now. When Cars Were New Under this title, the Woodstocn (Ont.) BSentinel-Review, observes what a strange world this would be without automobiles, and re- calls that only a couple of decados ago the Ontario Legislature ser- fously debated the right of motor cars to use all roads, or .o use any roads after sundown. Detai's of the debate in the Legis':iture on April 2, 1906, are recalled to show how the law-makers of that day looked upon the question of autos mobiles. A bill dealing with regn- lations for cars was under discus- glon on that occasion und the spon gor of the measure, whith later was enacted, said that regulafl ns were much too lax, It would he impossible to stop the automobile, said Premier Whit- ney, but the law might be changed, The premier further pointed out that it would he wrong to ellow municipalities to designate certain roads for the use of .utos, lie ghowed how the driver of a molol vehicle who wished to pass into any other municipality would be submitted to endless vexation. Mr. Graham -- now Rt, Hon. George P.--sald that everybody wanted to ride on the best roads. An Act to be any use must be 'workable. The automohile was here to stay and to stay om the highway. Mr. Little favored restraining motorists from using the roads af ter sundown, "'because of the fright caused horses by the blind- ing flashlights." Mr. W. K. McNaught upheld the right of the motorists, as of any other British subject, to use the highways. Jecause n few cranks hit up speed of 30 or 40 miles an hour was no reason why gthers should be restricted. Canadian Car Enthuses Japan Attendance figures at Spring motor shows in Canada were good, but not nearly as good as those reported from Toklo, Japan, when two special Chevrolet models, made in Oshawa, captured the en- thuslasm.-of the crowds. The two specials 'from the Oshawa plant of General Motors of Canada, recelv- ed unstinted pralse from 66,000 people who attended the display in Tokio hetween March 13 and Mareh 17. Hon. Herbert Marler, Can- adian Minister to Tokio and Mr, James A. Langley, commercial sec retary, were among those who at tended. the show. In addition to the enormous crowds at the salon, there were 70,000 who viewed the new cars at dealers' showrooms, and over 500 sales were consumat« ed at the time of the opening dis- play in Japan. The reception of the Oshawa-made Chevrolets ac- corded by Japan has aroused jus- tiflable pride among executives of General Motors of Canada, New Car Sales Club Thousands of automobile sales- men all over Canada have been in- terested in the inauguration of the "General Motors Master Sales- men's Club", just announced. The new organization is built on good foundation material. Three corn- er-stones, tested and true, were used. The Chevrolet '100 Car Club", the Pontiac "Green Light Club", and the Oldsmobile "Blue Vage Club',, have been amalgamat- ed into one strong organization, with one objective in view, namely to build and recognize the highest standard of salesmanship among men selling general Motors cars in Capada. emhership ping are to he awarded when certain quali- fications have been filled, and there are high awards provided for those who lead at the end of the selling season, Confidence in Future Practically half of all the cars #0ld in Ontario during the first thrée months of this year were General Motors of Canada auto- 1926 CHEVROLET COACH Perfect condition $145.00 Ross, Ames & Gartshore Limited 185 King $t.

This statement was made by Mr. C. Herring, General Sales Manager of General Motors of Canada, during his addresses at the annual Spring business meet. ings held by General Motors deal. ers and their bankers throughout the various zones. "This volume of sales," said Mr. Herring, "means prosperity for 'many throughout Canada, . In 1980, General Motors purchases in Canada amounted to $10,600,000 and ft 'was spread pretty well throughout the coun- try. I have a lot of confidence in 1931.. Fhe total year is going to be good. There has never been a tithe in' General Motbrs' history when we have had such an attrace tive line," i OM Plugs Reduce Power An automobile as it becomes older, gradually loses power, This power decrease id so gradual that the owner may not appreciate its extent until the sluggishness hHe- comes too apparent. Of course this tiouble is pot always due to anarg plugs, but an interesting test made recently shows that a motor with plugs that had been used for - slightly more than 10,000 niiles<~when run at an engine speed 'equivalent. to 20 rhiles an hour, developed: 81.2 horsepower. The same motor run at the same speed with a new set of spark plugs, gave a horsepower reading of 88.0, an increase of 6.8. The matter of spark plugs and maximym engine performance is a most vital one and service men are endeavoring to get this infor- mation to car owners. In doing this they are observing the speedo meter on every car that comes in- to the shop and recommending a ew set of plugs every 10,000 miles. Sp ---------------- JUNIORS ORGANIZE NATURE STUDY CLUBS Montreal, April 20.--~Junior nature study clubs are being organized in a number of educational institutions of the province of Quebec in co-operas tion with the Societe Canadienne d'- Histoire Naturelle, declared Prof. Marie Victorin, head of the botany department of the University of Mone treal, recently, The suggestion moot ed some months ago, he explained, had found a quick response from many colleges and schools, In order to stimulate the efforts and guide the steps of nature lovers during the summer timely and help- ful suggestions will be issued from week to week. When the number of clubs will be large enough, Prof. Ma- rie Victorin added, exhibitions will he organized where the accomplish- mengs of the various clubs can be compared. The club, it is pointed out, will be constantly in touch with the Societe Canadienne d'Histoire Natu- relle, and the parent body will make it a point to furnish lecturers, books and leaflets to the members. The at. tention of Hon. L. A. David, Provin. cial Sccretary, has been drawn to the movement, and application for a grant has also been made, it was announced recently, Should the clubs receive the financial support of the province and educationalists generally, it is the intention of the society to pub lish a year book where the activities of the clubs will be reported and pre- served for the advancement of natu. ral sciences. MESSAGE OF HOPE BROUGHT T0 CITY BY NOTED SPEAKER (Continued from page 1) walking on the road to Emmaus, to Peter and the other disciples. Even in the hour of his dark- est trial, the speaker said, Jesus was mindful of the welfare of those about him. During his worst suffering, He had spoken kindly words to the thief on the cross. And although He had never known remorse, as he had never sinned, He knew how to bring comfort and renewed strength to those who are enduring its cruel torment. Peter during the day: _after his denial of his Lord, was doubtedly the most miserable man in Jerusalem, but this special message from Jesus, with its complete forgive ness, brought cheer ot his heart. And when Peter came face to face with Jesus again on the shore of Galilee, the Master led him to make his profession of faith and love before the other disciples and then entrusted to his care the ministration of his followers. Peter, who had failed so miserab- ly, was now so encouraged and strengthened that he became the strongest among the disciples and laid down his life in Christ's cause. In Canada at the present time, Dr. McElheran stated, there is need for hope and courage, as in. dustrial depregsion and unemploy- ment weigh down the hearts and minds of men. Above all, Easter brings a message of forgiveness and hope and should have a aig- nificant meaning to each and every one. Those who are burdened with remorse, may find forgiveness through Christ and those who are discouraged may gain new hope .and confidence because of Him, 'We love spring better than any other season of the year," he said, 'not because nature is more beau- titul in spring. Nature is just as beautiful in summer, when trees and flowers are fn full bloom. Jt Is wonderful in winter when flefds, are covered with a blanket of purest white. But we love spring best because then in all nature there is hope, in every budding tree and plant, hope is expressed. Easter signifies the triumph of life over death and through it we have our greatest hope." A large congregation was in at- tendance at the service, the rece tor, Rev. R. B. Patterson being in charge. SIR JAMES BARRIE T0 BE PERSUADED Sir James 'Niece Now Tour- ing Here, Will Use Influence All the "Peters" and the "Wendys" of this country will rejoice that en- thusiasm is an infectious emotion-- when they learn that Sir James M. Barrie's niece, Miss Lillian K. Barrie, of the party of British Headmis- tresses, is "in love with Canada, and having a glorious time ever since landing on its shores." And that, moreover, she is going to tell her un- cle, when she gets back home, that he is missing a rare opportunity if le does not come over and investigate jte wonders and its beauties for him self. Upon the persuasive powers of this distinguished educationist, with the laughing eyes and bobbed coiffure, may, therefore, depend * Canada's chances for a vRit from the "Father of Peter Pan"--that inimitable Seot, who for more than a quarter of a century has brought the tear and the smile to the eyes of the world by his humor, whimsicality and sound philosophy. Miss Barrie, his niece, is head of King Edward High School for Girls, Birmingham---one of the largest, old- est and proudest girls' secondary schools in Great Britain. Th Canada she is easily one of the most lionized of the British party, Everybody, everywhere, at every hour, wants to see and to meet "Sir James Barrie's niece." Such is the love and the re. verence with which the poet, author, actor and playwright is regarded in this country. "How is Sir James?" asked The Globe, between "introductions." To get an interview, or even a few snatches of conversation, with the "headmistress" seehed impossible, "Fine," replied Miss Barrie, "and tre- mendously interested in this Canadian tour of the British teachers." "Is he making any more 'Peter Pans'?" Miss Barrie did not think her uncle is engaged on any writing just at Jissent. "What are you going to tell him about us when you go back--and what do you think of the chances of his coming over to see ns?" "I'm going to tell him that Canada is a wonder- ful country, and that he had just better come over here and see for himself what he thinks of the people. And 1 am coming back to Canada ust as soon as 1 retire" added the eadmistress of Birmingham. "I have had a glorious time ever since we arrived, and I feel perfectly at home here" she averred. "We landed in a Scotch mist at Halifax, and the first thing we saw was a sta- tue of Robert Burns. All the people round about had Scottish names--" 'Miss Barrie, here is some one else anxious to meet Sir James Barrie's niece," Thus the "introductions" continued, and the interview was never finished, Some one has said , that the sweetest words in 'the KE | language are "Enclosed 1p find cheque."
