Every railroad maintains its ~. ‘ . . l {,wn highwayâ€"a double Sll‘lp‘ of steel which, on the Canadian National System, totals more! than 24.000 miles of main track and more than 9,000 miles of secondary track in yards, sid- ings, etc. A track, once laid, may ap- pear to be a permanent instal- lation; but it isn’t. Like coachâ€" es, sleeping cars, locomotives and freight cars, it' requires maintenance. Between. 1949 and 1954, an average of 689 year.

Could be good styling always comes out on top. Remember when all the male fashion magazines were full of pink shirts? Store windows blushed pink on every side and, for a little while at least, shirt dealers were very happy. Then the clearance sales began and dealers tried everything they could to dis- pose of the pink shirts that people weren’t buying any more. One more fancy fad had come and gone. We think there’s a moral in this that applies to the car business, too. .And when we take a look at Pontiac’s sales record this year, we’re sure of it. Canadians everywhere appreciate Pontiac’s quiet, the absence of flash and gaudi- ness. They recognize and appreciate the sort of workmanship in every detail that only General ever they deal with CLEMENTS) Motors can put into a car. They like the friendly treatment and the eï¬icient service they ï¬nd when- a Pontiac dealer. But see for yourself as you drive. Just count the Pontiacs . . . and you’ll agree the rising tide of Pontiac popularity is turning into a veritable torrent.
