NEW PASSENGER CAR TIRE
GUARANTEE ANNOUNCED
Much of the confusion incidental
to tire adjustment claims will be el-
iminated by a new guarantee an-
nounced by all standard -line tire
manufacturers. Tire' companies be-
lieve -that no longer will ear °emeres
find themselves in dispute with deale'
err or manufacturers as to the val-
idity of their claims.
The new guarantee; planned to re-
move all contentious possibilities,
warrants tires used in private pass+
anger car service fon 11 months or 19
months, depending on the type of
tire, and a guarantee certificate ac-
companies each tire. '
All road hazards, excepting punct -
sires and running flat, are covered by
the new guarantee and provision is
made for a satisfactory repair or a
pro rata adjustment based on "the
term of the guarantee. It will 'be
seen that under this' new ' warranty
allowance will be made for such in
juries 'as blow -outs, cuts, ;bruises,
rim cuts, under inflation, wheels out
of line, faulty brakes, etc., not pre-
viously covered by tire guarantees.
This is a new and definite advantage
to the tire user. •
Dealers are new selling time under
the new guarantee and motorists are
warned that a certificate should be
obtained with each new tire. The
new guarantee covers, also, tires sold
as equipment on new passenger cars
to be used in private service.
Leading tire manufactures believe
the new warranty will result in mote
satisfactory automobile service.

and the broadened coverage of the
warranty.

One of the meanest thieves in the
annals of the Stratford police de-
partment was on record today when
it was reported that tite St, Anthony
box at St. Joseph's Ronan Cath•ciie
•church was forced open and robbed
of all its contents, The box is used
to collect a free-will 'offering to pur-
chase bread for needy folk. It is not
known how much was taken but it
is believed it was in the neighbor -
heed 52 .712. The lock had been
brokenand the lid forced 'open, The
box' was handled considerably before
the theft was reported to "police and
as a result no fingerprints -'could be
taken to determine the identity of
the thief.=BeaconeHerald,

BURNS AND BEECHERR
(The following appeared ' in yes-
terday's Globe, and will be enjoyed
by our readers of Scottish birth be
descent: Col. Hugh Clarlc. ;in his.
"Looking ,over The News," on page
3, this issue, says that Robbie Burns'
is remembered
notm '•
spite of his
faults, but because of them, and
maybe 'tis so, who knows?—Ed.)
The following poem was written by
a Scottish woman, Mrs. Janet Webb,
on the occasion of the Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher being appointed to
deliver an oration at the Burns Club
in New. York et the celebration of.
the Burris Centenhial, Jan. 25, 1859.
The fourth stanza is someevhat pro-
phetic"; but the third has been realiz-
ed long before the time that the
poetess sat.)
1 hear the task has fa'n 'to you
To gie the Bard of Ayr his due;
But use him weel—
Ise kept sweet Charity in view,
E'en for the Deil.
His wee, sma' fau'ts ye needna tell—
Folks say ye're nae o'er guid yerel', e
But Deil may care;
Gin ye're but half as guid as Rab,
We'll ask nae male.
Then dinna seek to find''a flaw,
But o'er his fau'ts a mantle throw.
And leave the rest'.
To Him Wha made and tried the
heart
Ise kens the hest.
A century hence, and wha can tell
What may befa' your cannie,sel'?
Some holy preacher
May tak' the cudgels up for ane
Ca'd "Harry Beecher."
I mak' nae doubt ye'd like tae ken
Wha 'tis taks up the auld .quill pen
To write this rhyme;
The ]cnowledge would be little worth
I'm past my prime.
But when a lassie, young and fair,
I've wandered aft by bonnie Ayr,
Wi' heartsome glee,
Ere Fate's stern mandate sent me
forth
Far o'er the sea.
Still. Scotia's hills and Scotia's plains
Her. poets, and her poet' strains,
To me are dear;
A desert -spring within my heart
May claim a tear.
