NEWS
Robin Campbell, up in the Canad-
ian Tire store, thought he had the
anti-freeze situation pretty well in
hand, until the big snowfall last week.
Before that he had sold quite a bit of
anti-freeze, and had figured that
everyone was pretty well stocked up
for the winter.
Comes the snowfall and people
started pouring in for the stuff, and
before he knew it, Bob was doing a
land office business. He also reports
that snow tires were going like hot
cakes that day, too.

One of the things that intrigued us
in the Burke Electric store the other
day was the clock radios, which, (le-
eording to Frank Burke, are selling
like hot cakes. Apparently alarm
clocks are going out as waker-uppers,
and clock radios are coining in. And
we must admit that it would be more
pleasant to awaken to the strains of
sweet music, even if It is interspersed
with a few commercials, than to be
jerked out of the arms of Morpheus
by the raucous sounds of an alarm.
clock.
The principle of clock radios is fair-
ly simple, but we trust that they give
you complete instructions with each
unit, because there are enough dials
and knobs to confuse anyone who isn't
mechanically inclined, like us. From
what we can recall, the procedure is
something like this: You set the
alarm dial for seven o'clock-if you're
an early riser, unlike us, At then ap-
pointed time the radio switches on
automatically, playing aforementioned
sweet music for ten minutes. If that
doesn't work there's an alarm built in
which rings at ten past seven and
continues ringing for five minutes,
after which the radio goes back to
music. By this time most average
sleepers will, it is hoped, be awaken-
ed, but for those who are tardy there
is further provision. If the radio isn't
turned off, the alarm will sound again
in ten minutes, and will continue to
go off at ten minute intervals, with
music in between, until something is
done about it.
A further refinement is added in
the form of an outlet for a bed lamp.
Supposing you would like to read for
an hour before going to sleep. Simply
turn on the light and adjust one of
the knobs. For an hour you read with
the light on and the radio playing,
Then the light goes out, the music
fades, and the radio is set to play
again at seven in the morning.
It all sounds like a wonderful idea
to us. We bet it was dreamed up by
one of those early morning disc joc-
keys.

If you are one of those parents
who worries about their children read-
ing comic books, perhaps the classic
comics are the answer. Intead of deal-
ing with the exploits of Hopalong
Cassidy and pick Tracy, these books
are comic stories from the great class-
ical novel, put out specially for
children.
According to Jack McKibbon, who
stocks these comics, the stories are
growing in popularity with children
as well as parents, which just goes to
show that you never can tell. We
would have thought that the children
Would avoid them like the seven-year
itch.
Jack also reports that there are
quite a number of titles in the series
and that these titles are changed from
time to time, so that there are lots
to choose from.

The Edighoffer store is in the pro-
cess of getting a new front this week,
and it is hoped that the work will be
done by Christmas. The workmen are
currently putting on the wire mesh
in preparation for the new material.
The new front will be of perma-
stone, and should add considerably to
the appearance of the main street.
