It is right at home where we should begin with our councils. We have a man appointed to drive over the roads to tell our pathmasters what needs re- pairing now. He doesn't know a whit more than the men who are doing the job. Why not take the money being paid him and put it into gravel for the roads? A good gravel road is the most serviceable road that can be built. Let us be content with this and rather lower the taxes and set aside an allowance- to help mothers with large families, to provide doctors and nurses 'free and competent help to mo- thers when children are being born. Taxes should be raised according. to pojaulation; bachelors taxed the high- `est, then families with six or more children almost notax.

As memory serv- es me, it was a bishop of the Anglican. Church in Canada, who recently said, Capital punishment is a relic of bar- barism. If not justifiable at all, then` much less is it so on circumstantial evidence. For an individual to kill another is certainly a wrong. For a community to kill an individual, only ' multiplies the killers, and doesn't right the wrong. Thou shalt not kill, should be read to apply to the State as well as to the person. Many hands stained with blood will not look better in the eyes of God, than a single pair. Christianity out-dates and out-classe the Mosaic. An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth, by, Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you. Thu olllfnununn la a\a\|.-us` ..-n`...-!..1_ Juu. The difference in capital punish- ment, between breaking on the wheel, and hanging, is only one of a few minutes `of physical ' suffering. ,The exquisiteness of torture in modern capital punishment, is found in the weeks or months of mental anguish suffered by the condemned, between sentence and execution. The law con- demns most, the cold blooded murder, then in cold blood`makes another kill- ing, and takes its time. There is too much official pride in making a. con- viction when one is charged with a crime. to make circumstantial evidence a safe basis. ' I `I ...-L A ..,\...-.1..

Similar things frequently occur.

No other country of comparable size comes anywhere near this gure Even the United States, with a vast and highly protected home market, with a quantity production which en- ables cars to be sold and operated at much less cost than in Canada, does very little better in proportion, and no better at all when the extra cost is taken into consideration. , Five Years Growth In the ve years ending 1927 the number of cars registered in Canada iincreased by about 84 per cent., the greatest increase being registered by `the Western provinces, led by British Columbia with a rate approximating 130 per cent. Canada's growth in car ownership during the ve years men- tioned was much greater in proportion In produced than that of the United States. 1927 Canadian factories 167,252 motor vehicles, or over 12,000 more than the combined total` for the years 1921 and 1922 and $50,000 more than the total number of cars owned in Canada in 1916.

To such pessimists the trade gures of the Dominion during the ve years under review must come as a shock. Savings Increase The ve years under review have ,seen the greatest increase in the sav- ings of Canadians yet recorded. The lperiod has also seen a record increase [in the number of investors in Cana- da and the amount invested.

If the expense of building and maintaining these highways is met by the tourist trade all well and good. Where do the farmers, who are the backbone of our country, come in? Why is the meat, cream and eggs disappearing from the farmer's table and being replaced by macaroni and other cheap foods? Into taxes for roads to accommodate tourists. The Romans built good roads but where_ is Rome? So with us soon; roads, and empty houses on either side.

That homicide is homicide; that blood shed is blood shed." Again, on cir- cumstantial evidence. At Toulouse, Oct. 13, 1761, there was found in the lower storey of a house, a young man hanged. The crowd gathered, the clergy fulminated, the magistracy in- vestigated. It was a suicide, they made it assassination. In what interest? And who was the accused? The father. There was here a monstrosity, and a material impossibility: no matter. This father had killed his son, this old man had hanged the young man. ;Justice travailed, and this was the result. In the month of March, 1762, a man with white hair, Jean Galas, , was conducted to a public place, strip- ped. naked, and stretched upon a wheel. the members bound upon it,` the head hanging. Three men are! there upon a scaffold, a magistrate,| ` named David, charged to superintendi the punishment, a priest to hold the. -crucifix. and the executioner with 8.] bar of iron in his hand. The patientg stupefied "and terrible, regards not the. priest, and looks at the executioner.` l I The executioner lifts the bar of iron, and breaks one of his arms. The vic- tim groans and swoons. The magis- trate comes forward; they make the! condemned inhale salts; he returns} `to life. Then another stroke of the bar, another groan. Galas loses conscious- ness: they revive him and the execu-j tioner begins again: and as each limb! before being broken in two places re-! ceives two blows, that makes eight. punishments. After the eighth swoon-i ing the priest offers him the crucifix. 3 to kiss; Galas turns away his head, and? 3 the executioner crushes his chest with; the thick end of the iron bar. So died: Jean Galas. That lasted two hours. After the death of Galas, the evidence of suicide came to light. But an assas-. sination had been committed. ' By` whom? Answer. The priest in at- tendance was serving, no doubt, a christian necessity. The judges were serving the State. 1:1...-m. H... ..1...:..a-3-5.. ..:........-:...a. .....-. uu-A yam, nuau nauxuuu. !

Hence they have become, to an ever-increasing extent, investors: they buy goods on the installment plan be- ca.use- they have learned to utilize their credit: naturally 9. few use this -fa`ctor unwisely but never in history has the percentage of losses been low- P1` A Fine Export In 1927 the Dominion exported 39,- 900 passenger cars valued at $22,150,- 000, and 17,514 motor trucks worth $6,270,000, together with motor parts which brought the total up to $31,- 863,462. These exports went to about 3 different countries and in several cases represented Canada's chief ex- port of manufactured products to that country Apart `from the fact that the manufacture of thirty million dollars worth of motor vehicles pro- vided regular employment for many. ation of motor vehicles from Canada has probably done more to create a national consciousness of the value of export trade than any other factor. Trade in Empire Great Britain was Canada's best customer for automobiles, purchasing over ve and a half million dollars worth in 1927. The British West In- dies came second with $6,277,000, and Australia third with $3,252,000. Such little-known countries as Iraq (545 cars and trucks), Peru (729 vehicles) and Uruguay bought 431 passenger cars. Russia, Turkey, Switzerland and Spain were almost the only Eur- opean countries not buying Canadian motor vehicles, and it will surprise many readers to learn that 236 Cana- ,dian-built passenger cars, together `with a number of trucks, were export- ed to the United States. Fashions of Today 01 the total number of passenger cars made in Canada in 1927, 73 per cent. were closed cars.

The sleeping bus ser- vice recently inaugurated is planned to run every night, leaving London close to midnight and arriving in Newcastle in time for breakfast. The sleeping berths are arranged in sim- ilar fashion to that common in Can- adian Railway trains, and the fare is somewhat lower than the rail fare. Lists Not Accurate There is no denite information as to the number of- busses now operat- ing in Canada because in certain pro- `vinces they are included in the regis- ytration lists with taxis. Ontario had ionly 480 and Quebec 476 in 1927, so Ithat it is obvious that. the Dominion !does not use anything like the pro- Inortion used in either Britain or the !United States. lvuuuuu ysuvauua 111511 ICVCID. In 1921. 34,996 prairie farms had tractors; the government census of 1926 showed. over 50,000 tractors in use on these same farms and more were sold in 1927 and 1928 than in several previous years. About 45 per cent. of the Prairie farmers of Can- ada possessed a passenger automobile in 1927. The National Automobile Show of Canada held at the Canadian Nation- a1`Exhlb1tion, Toronto, very creditably reects the Dominion s place in world motor circles.

TIRE JUDGMENT MEANS MORE MILES TO OWNERS I i v | | (President wdfi "c;i;ge of Electrical and Automotive Trades, i Chicago, Ill.) \ Concededa that mileage means. wear in this particular sense, then i there are a "lot of drivers who are` getting a great many more miles out of their tires than they think they are. |'l`Ln.m :13 n 1n+ Ac 4-vnvvnl I-lr\n'+ +1141! 1 Lucy cue `There is a lot of travel that the E speedometer `can't register.

Avoid depres- sions, holes. stones, bumps, car tracks and ragged pavements, even _if your car is equipped to absorb shocks. Your tires are not so equipped. Striking a sharp projec- tion at high speed may deduct one hundred miles from the running life of your tire. f\n4- A114-4-dam 4-1..-.4!-`tn 1\11d-4-nun IJLC U1. .yUUL |4J.1.Co Quit cutting traffic buttons. They are one of the major causes of the stone bruise type of tire injury, and they cause many thous- ands of dollars worth of damage each day. Don t skid around a cor- ner. Take the turn slowly and when about half aroun-d feed the car gas. In this manner you will be able to negotiate the turn more safely and save your tires, too. Don't step on it at the start. Speeding up too quickly from a standing start results in spinning wheels. and spinning wheels cause the tire tread to be grated and worn against the pavements. Don't attempt to stop your car in the space of ten feet just because you have excellent brakes, and the car will `brake down from a speed of thirty miles in that short space. This `is not omly bad for the tires, but there will come an emergency stop sometime--when the brakes will fail to work.
