STOP SALE OF ALL
PNEUMATIC TIRES
Only Used Tires, Tubes Available To
Motorists
Sale of all new rubber pneumatic
tires was halted under a surprise ord
er issued Thursday by Munitions
Minister Howe.
The order, which became' effective
immediately and “remains in effect
until further notice,” leaves used tires
and tubes and retreaded tires the only
source available to motorists who re
quire replacements.
The action was a direct outcome of
hostilities in the Pacific which threat
en to sharply curtail the North Amer
ican supply of crude rubber.
The order prohibits sale or delivery
by any person in Canada to anyone,
except Government departments, of
new rubber pneumatic tires for any
type of automobile, bus, truck, farm
implement or motorcycle.
W. C. T. U. MAKE
PRESENTATIONS
Mrs. E. M. Loney Remembered Prior
To Her Departure And Mrs, J. Kelly
Given Gift For 10 Years Service As
Secretary
The monthly meeting of the W. C.
T. U. was held at the home of Mrs.
Fred Davidson on Friday afternoon.
“Count Your Blessings” was used as
the opening hymn, followed by prayer
by Mrs. J. Anderson. Mrs. A. Cosens
gave a reading, “Who owns the Tur
keys” and the hymn “Yield not to
Temptation” was sung.
Miss Lewis gave the Bible reading,
Using as her scritpure lesson, Luke
2:1-19, “There was no room for them
in the Inn” was the text. She said
Christian Art has glorified the birth
of Jesus and made it seem a beautiful
and pleasant place for Mary and the
Baby. Are we making room for Him?
Many have room for art, literature,
money, gossip, but Jesus is erowded
out, People think they make room for
Him but He is crowded into a small
place. Our homes will be happy homes
if Jestis has His place there. If we
make no room for the lower, humbler
person in our social life, we make no
room for Him. Who can estimate what
Vve shall miss if make ho room for
Christ
The Clip Sheet Readings were led
by Mrs, E. M, Loney. The hymn
“Jesus Saviour Pilot Me” was sung to
close the devotional part of the meet
ing.
