•TEESWATEtI5.
The town of • Teeswater was astir
early Thursday last as the detachment
of recruits left for mobilization in
Walkerton by the 6 a. m, train. The
tows, bell rang at 5 o'clock and soon the
front street was filled with citizens.
At half -past 5 o'clock the procession
set out for the station, headed by the
brass band. Three rousing cheers were
given for the Teeswater detachment
and farewell words addressed to the
soldiers by Rev. W. A. Bradley and
Rev. 3. C. Mantell. The former said
that the presence of so great a crowd
at this early hour in the morning was
an indication of the interest the people
tock in them and the cause they
represented, but that this was nothing
to the reception they would receive.
when they returned home, He reminded,
LET US SERVE YOU
just one glass of our soda and
we know you will be a fre-
quent visitor to our fountain. •
For there's no other soda like 0
ours. It's simply nectar and
nothing less. Stop in to -day
for your first glass of it. Why
put off the exquisite pleasure
isuch soda affords?

Electric Control Buttons at Your Finger Tips
Naturally, you want a car that can be operated easily
—you realize that the extent of pleasure and safety in
driving depends upon the ease of control.
In most cars the details of control seem to be planned
with an eye for convenience in assembling the various
parts.
But the Overland control was arranged just as you
would arrange it if you were designing a car for your
own convenience.
You control the electric magneto, the] electric lights,
the electric horn, with your finger tips,[without bend-
ing forward.
To start the motor you merely touch a foot button in
the floor.
A woman or girl can drive the Overland in safety. Its
control is easy and instinctive,
Let us tell you about the other Overland advantages.
