the tribune stouffville ont thursday october 26 1950 trains travel faster than you think it is commonly supposed that in collisions between trains and motor vehicles at railway crossings it is the train which strikes the motor car reports to the hoard of transport commissioners for can ada covering the 12month period ended june 30th last however reveal that of the 443 accidents occuring in that period nearly a quarter of them resulted from the motor vehicle ranging from slek sedans to modest farm trucks and even motorcycles striking the side of the locomotive or train cases were reported in whic th- motor vehicle struck the train as far back as five cars behind the engine one of the reasons for this apparent anomaly is the fact well supported by scientific tests that trains travel faster than the motorist who can estimate within the few seconds allowed foi him to determine whether or not he can safely make the crossing it is safer to give the train the benefit of the doubt t thk beak and the bees an interesting sequel has been written to the bear story which came out of fenelon falls a week ago it will be recalled that mel ville sheehey rural mail carrier had climbed a fence to

trees and make houses chairs ixjwls canoes lots of things but all ihcsc were heavy and had many other disadvantages its different now that we have aluminum which is light rustless wont burn doesnt rot is practically everlasting it lakes a whole scries of unusual and complicated tools to make things of aluminum to start with it lakes ships to import the ore ports for unloading powerhouses for electricity smelters all these to produce the aluminum itself still only in ingot form next it takes a plant like the alcan one at kingston to receive these ingots from the smelters and to shape the metal into tubes sheets extrusions forgings and foil finally it takes more than 1000 canadian manufacturers to form all these into chairs kitchen utensils building materials aeroplanes etc things canadians use every day so you sec this kingston plant is halfway house between ingot and finished article between the original aluminum and you it is a link in the chain of tools with which over the last fifty years canadians have equipped themselves to malci aluminum articles creating work and wages for thousands bringing greater convenience and comfort to modern living aluminum company of
