That is why we urge you to read the letter from Mr. A. P. Collins of Canadian Coach Ways, Edmonton—then go out and talk to some of the Chevrolet operators in your own com­ munity. You can safely take “the owner’s word” for it—when it’s a question of the right truck to buy for performance, appearance, freedom from repairs, long life and economy. SATISFACTORY Sxpesrie&acie wifi&a &©w@!©S »1CALGARY, ALTA. Dear Sirs :■— Four years ago we purchased a Chevrolet utility chassis and began operating a bus line be­ tween Athabasca and the city of Edmonton. The road in wet weather is a heavy greasy mud and in dry weather extremely rough, so that the operating conditions are not by any means ideal. Our Chevrolet gave us little trouble apart from ordinary service work . . . Since then we have secured three other bus routes in Alberta and in each case Chevrolets were placed in operation. Our experience with Chevrolet therefore has been more than satisfactory. Yours very truly, CANADIAN COACH WAYS (Sgd.) A. P.

SPROWL, LUCAN THE OLD HOME TOWN I wonder who does not occasionally long for another took at the old home town? As each new year adds to the length of our life and shortens its stay among moving men and women and the stir of things, the old famil­ iar scenes of our childhood grow dearer than ever. Those of us who knew “The Old Oaken Bucket,” which Samuel Wood­ worth immortalized, thrill at the sight of one after the long years. A friend of mine bought an old home in New England and one of the shrines upon the place is the same old oaken bucket. He shows it to people before he exhibits his new piano or new car. Who does not melt a little of his heart at the hearing of “My Old Kentucky Home”? The au­ thor of this immortal piece died al­ most friendless in New York City. Ip life, Stephen Foster .roamed about with many a pang eating at his heart —but ,he will be beloved just so long as time lasts for those who carry him around with them in his beautiful songs. A few years ago I took my twin boys to the little place in Michigan where their father (who, also is a twin) was born. It was quite ing to view the modest little and to dream the memories happy mother. As we stood in a man came out, Enthusiatically—al­ most reverently—I said: “This was the place where I was born!” “That so?” was all he said, and passed on Few can understand the love which we all have for the place of iour birth or for the old home in the old home town. Now that vacation time is on, what better plan than to visit the old home town? I would like to visit each one of the old home towns in which I lived as a boy—and meet a few of j the old people who were sc kind to me as a boy. ’ ___ . low, the corner drugstore man, the photographoT, tbs vlllags blacksmith (if lie still survives with his shop), G]en Facey, ,of Hamilton. the postoffice corner where there was always a town group, the mill stream and the mill that made the flour—and then there was the swim­ ming hole, of course! All these precious memories of the old home town. As I took out upon the vast city that spreads for miles in all direc­ tions from the window of my office, where I now write, there is a long­ ing and a little catch in my throat, and as memories cluster about my dead mother and father, and so many of those who made life clean and simple and beautiful during the days of youth. —George Matthew Adams AN EXTRA IIOUR-AND-A-HALF Many telephone users have found it worthwhile to wait until 8.30 to get the night rates -on their long distance calls. Now it is no longer necessary—the low night rates be­ gin at 7 p.m. The death occurred recently of a St'. Marys resident in the person of of Mrs. William Marriott, wihio died suddenly at her (home the victim of a heart attack. Formerly Miss-Cath­ arine Ann Grigg, she was born at Fullarton Comers in 1856. Her hus­ band died about three and a halt years ago. Deceased is survived -by four sons and four daughters also two brothers and three sisters. BOTH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Mr. and Mrs. H. ,C. Facey, of Mit­ chell, recently observed .their 50tli wedding anniversary at the homes 'of friends in Tavistock and New Ham­ bung.
