And it will do it economically, for it is a popular priced car. No need of letting this car remain idle during cold and in• clement weather, for it can be converted into a thoroughly closed car in a few moments. Adjustable side windows permit you to raise or lower them to suit your convenience. They drop into special spaces provided in tlie body and doors. The top and window pillars are permanent. You can enjoy open car comfort in the summer and closed car protection in the winter. And either cicsed er open, the Overland Light Four Touring Sedan is a smart appearing car ---one that we believe will give you more for your investment than any other of its type offered in Canada for the same amount of money.

You'll like it, and will be surprised how easily the Ford is handled and driven. If you have never felt the thrill of driving your own car, there is some- thing good in store for you. It is vastly different from just riding—being a passenger. And especially so if you drive a Ford. Young boys, girls, women and even grandfathers—thousands of them -- are driving Ford cars and enjoying it. A Ford stops and starts in traffic with exceptional ease and smoothness, while on country roads and hills its strength and power show to advantage. Buy a Ford and you will want to be behind "the wheel" constantly. • dOrlrettgarro° Runabout - $478 Touring - - $495 Coupelet TFIf (JNI VERSAL CAR Sedan p P. 0. B. FORD, ONT. A. M.

Yours sincerely, Dail Does Advertising Pay? Advertisements in Everybody's Column of Tmi AosANc.e are evidently money - getters, Mr, I'hippcn advertised a dog for sale and in two days after the paper was published the dog was sold for $10,00 A town man put a`'rsmall ad. in to say that he wished to sell a couple of pigs, and in a couple of days lie came into our office and asked us how he could make the people quit coming to his house for then as they had been sold the day the paper was printed. Another gentlemen lost an auto tire, after three weeks we located the linder, Sam Burke lost a buggy robe, put an ad,in our paper and found it before the paper was printed, Dave McDonald lost anauto hood and phoned us in an advt. but before lie phoned a gentleman brought it into the ADVANCL+' OFFICE. Surely advertising pays, '`The following is an extract taken from a Ietter written by Pte.Dan. O'Toole of the 38th Batt. formerly 109th Kingston, to Mrs. Joseph Robb, Bluevale. Pte. O'Toole is a former student of the Wing - ham High School and Spotton Business College. Dear Mrs. Robb:— Iell I have a great deal I wish to say but I feel it would be wise to bring this to a close if I am to get this away. All I can say about over here is that every thing is going on about as usual and Fritz is going back. I suppose you have been wondering what I am doing over here. Of course as you do not understand the organization as it is over here, it would be useless to go over it all. However you will understand me when I say I am a scout and sniper. The first scouting did, I crawled 500 yards on my stomach, looked along 100 yards of the enemy barbed wire entanglements then crawled through it and got into the enemy's front line trench. After seeing the sentries were at their post I got out of the trench and went farther behind his trench until I came to a house, I got up into the top room of this big house and could hear the Germans in the rooms below, and through a small hole I could see down in the next roo,n, and saw a German that had been reading, put away his book and come trying to see up Likely he heard me and got suspicious. I stayed awhile but he did not seem to bother any more so I came back and gave all the information I had got. About au hour after I came back from my trip which was about 2.30 p nt, I saw our artillery put two shells into the heart of the house so you can guess the rest. The next day I received a letter, a copy of which I will send you, I have just re- ceived your parcel also the box of cigars (tont Neil, and i am smoking one as I `write this. You ought to see my churns here swaggering around smoking- nay cigars.- They are certainly Kings to the ones we get here and I must thank you and Neil again for your kindness, A copy of letter., In the Field August 136, 1917 Pte D. O'Toole:— I am in receipt of a telegram to -day from General Officer Commanding Briga- dier General MacBrreu D. S. O. Please convey my congratulations to Pte.
