Holi- day weekends this summer have been much safer than in yArs before. If the average auto traveling 30 miles per hour, slows down to 15 and then accelerates back to 30 just once during the course of a mile, it will burn 11 percent more fuel. Try to avoid deep puddles. Even if you drive very slowly through them, the fan may throw water all over the engine. Paper air filter inside the air cleaner should be changed every 70,000 miles, or it will choke off supply of air to engilne. Australian engineer has found a way to dispose of old car tires.

By PAUL SALMON Try as he might, Old Man Weather was unable to dampen the spirits of those who attended this year's annual chicken barbecue put on by parishoners of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church. The barbecue, held Sunday, August 8, was enjoyed by around 625 people who consumed 300 pies. I discovered that the easiest way to report on such an event is to partake of the delicious food, rather than to run around with pencil and paper in hand, feeling and appearing like a complete idiot. The event not only lured local residents, but also former parishoners from such towns as Stratford, Goderich and Kin- cardine. One familiar face belonged to the former housekeeper at the Mt. Carmel Rectory, Bet- ty Scratch,who now resides in Clinton, Father Mooney also took this opportunity to show some members of his own family the merits of Mt. Carmel hospitality, His sister Anne, her husband Gerald Hoy and their son Joe came from Toronto to attend the 111i11111111111111111111116. barbecue and Father IVIooney's brother, Father Paul MooineY, came from.
