WHY REPLACE SHOCK ABSORBERS ?
(1) BECAUSE—Shook absorbers wear out ... they leak oil and lose their WI.
ofenoyi (2) BECAL1SE--Vnless ALL 4 shook obsorbers are working you have
Steering trouble—wheel hop--tire wear—brake swerve—body sway—spring
abuse and eventual breakage.
WHY BUY NEW ONES ?
You may sayi "Why buy new when my present equipment may he recondi-
tioned?" BECAUSE—These units were never Intended to be ,reconditioned. The
proper dismantling and reassembly would cost more than new ones. Recon-
ditioned Units rarely match. MOTO-MASTER new units assure absolute uni-
formity—each and every ono identical, Lastly, BECAUSE MOTO-MASTER cost von very little. if any, more than auestionable reconditioned ones.

was instructed to notify him that this
tax was not refundable but that the

dog.
The Department of Airiculture in a
letter said that the ,man power situ-
ation to harvest farm crops was a seri-
ous problem and suggested the forma-
tion of a Farm Commando unit in the
community, It was decided that the
matter be brought to the attention of
the Lions Club who had in previous
years attended to this matter, -
Reporting for the Streets commit-
tee, Councillor Johnson informed the
members that about 600 yards of
gravel had been purchased. Some was
spread on the streets and the balance
was placed in a stock pile at the town
hall. He reported that the grass had
been cut and routine work carried on.
He also said that there was 6 tons of
calcium chloride in stock but more was
required for the streets this summer.
Ten tons of calcium chloride will be
purchased for use as dustlayer on the
motion of Councillors Johnson and
Kennedy.
Councillor Wilkinson said the prop-
erty committee had examined the
arena and had decided to put a door
on the' east side about the middle so
that in case of an emergency this
would facilitate people making an
exit.
The work of putting eavestroughing
on the arena would start immediately,
he said. Re rates for use of the arena
it was decided on motion of Councillor
Wilkinson and Reeve Evans that a
meeting regarding this matter be held
with a representative of the Lions
Club and the Horse Show.
Conucillor Lloyd reporting for the
Cemetery Committee said a third man
was now working there. No dirt has
been arranged for as yet. The com-
mittee has tried to get tenders for
dirt for levelling• but has not yet been
successful. He mentioned the increas-
ed cost of operating the cemetery and
on motion of Councillors Lloyd and
Spry the fee for opening a grave at

tune the first this year.

and Reeve Evans had attended the
Planning and Post War convention
that was held in Toronto recently.
This convention had urged the
Organization of local planning com2
mittees. Later they had attended a
similar meeting for the County held at
Blyth. A questionnaire regarding this
was read, and it was decided pn

nedy that Councillor Lloyd be chair-
.man of a committee of his choosing
to get the necessary information from
the local manufacturers. '
Councillor Wilkinson who was dele-
gate to the Aeronautical Institute of
Canada Convention which was held in
Toronto recently, gave a report of the
meetings, He compared it to the
Good Roads organization except that
it was in the air instead of on the
ground. The convention was not a
cot and dried affair. Five cities at
present have air transportation and
the time is -coining when the whole
province will be linked with air lines,
What will we do here, lie asked? The
time is coming when every town of
1000 'or over will have some sort of
North End
