SfORE OF QHiALSTY
A Favorite In Canada
The steady demand for Overland Light Four touring cars in
the Dominion is the strongest argument we can advance
in their favor.
This sturdy little Overland traveler has proved a favorite'
right from the start.
It appeals strongly to those who want and need a moderately
priced car -one that is not too big and costly to maintain
or too small for riding comfort and pride of ownership. '
The Overland Light Four strikes a happy medium.
Let us show you this car. Let us demonstrate its advantages.
A ride in it is mighty convincing.

Sentenced for Robbery
Last week at 'Toronto, Charles Lusty
was sentenced to three years in the
penitentiary on a charge of stealing an
auto and robbing private houses. He
was the head of a gang of three youths
who broke into the home of Mr. Alex -
Armstrong (formerly of Clinton) and
ransacked it front top to bottom, dur-
ing the temporary absence of members
of the household, stealing several art-
icles of value, most of which, however,
were subsequently recovered Two
other numbers of the gang who were
mere lads without any previous bad
record, were allowed to go on sus-
pended sentence
Success of Another Clilttonian
The older Clintonians will remember
a former resident who was known as
"Chauncey" fisher when a stere lad;
he was a boy without the advantages
of position or wealth, but he had hots
of pluck and energy. Moving to To-
ronto he found opening for his talents,
and he started in the manufacturing
business under the title of the A, D,
Fisher Co., and by honest business
management has succeeded in working
up a splendid business locaited on Bri-
tain St, 11 is reported that he made
considerable stoney on a munition con-
tract, and he showed his generosity and
appreciation of a good cruse by last
week contributing $500. to the Red
Cross Fund. Here's where your old
friends take oil' their hat to "A, D."
