TO CROSS CANADA .ON MOTOR SCOOTER—In Canada
for less than a year, Shirley Caulkett and Pat Fitzgerald
are ;determined to see as much of the country as they
can—and as cheaply as they can. They're setting out from
Toronto on one tiny motor scooter and their destination
is Vancouver, with a stopover to see the Calgary Stan),-
pede, They'll work wherever they find jobs and don't par-
ticularly care when the trip is finished. They both hall
from. London, Eng,, but did not meet until they came to
;Canada.

Because he had crawled out
on thin ice and rescued a play-
mate who bad fallen through,
little Tommy was the center of
a group of admiring men and
women.
"Tell us, niy boy, how you
were brave enough to risk your,
life to save your friend,” said a
dear old lady. N•

A small truck has a flat tire on
I a suburban highway stretch and
the driver pulls off td the curb
to fix it—but not all the way off.
The truck's tail -end juts into
the traffic lane, a second vehicle
crashes it, kills the driver while
!he's fixing the flat and sends the
man in charge of the second ve-
'hicle to hospital with terrible in-
juries. Truck and car are practi-
cally demolished the damage es-
timated in thousands of dollars.
Police in this case blamed both
drivers—the • victim for not pul-
ling his truck completely off 'the
pavement and the other for fail-
ing to see the parked. truck: •
Relating this incident, an offi-
cial of the Canadian , Highway
Safety Conference pointed to an
important factor that was—and
usually is—neglected. That factor
was the flat tire.
Why, asked W. H. Funston. of
Hamilton, Ont,, CHSC treasurer,
should the tire have been al-
lowed to reach a condition that
set off a fatal chain of circum-
stances? Tires cannot repair nor
maintain themselves; only their
owners can know when they need
repair or replacements and only
the owner can bring those things,
about.
That goes for all vehicle main-
tenance—brakes, headlights, rear
and stop lights, tires, steering
and wheel alignment, exhaust
system and muffler, windshield
wipers, glass areas, horn, rear-
view mirror and others, said Mr.
Funston,
"No car," he said, "can re-
pair itself any more than you can
`unhappen' an accident. The most
inexcusable accidents are the
ones that result from inadequate
vehicle maintenance. Any intel-
ligent driver can tell by a calm
casual inspection of his car if
there 's something seriously
wrong with it, or by sensing
something wrong in the `feel' of
his car as he drives. That's—
the time when he sees or 1
senses something out of ,place—
is whn`repairs should be made.
Later may be too ]ate!"
Mr. Funston/who is also presi-
dent of the Firestone Tire and
Rubber Co, of Canada Ltd.
called attention to the spring
campaign, the Conference is spon-
soring, aimed at ridding the
streets and roads of Canada of

Mr. Funston. "All he has to do
is have the vital items of his
car checked, and thus know his
vehicle is safe. If he knows that,
then you and I—and that driver

or death, as a result of mechan-
ical failure on the part of the
