After .a wonderful week-
end : 'on '
n Ontario roads
No speed record's were made -for it was a trip
-' of wholesome enjoyment. Two days in the vigorous
outdoors -in friendly farming country, through
alluring _woodlands,* through fascinating villages
aald towns.
The'trfp will be femembered by what was seen,
not by the speed at which the road was covered.
With moderate- driving, 'every beauty spot was
enjoyed; every panorama was appreciated.
There is, good sense and good, business in
moderate driving in the country. Good sense,
`because it enables you to see everything as you
go along. Good business because excessive speed
is dangerous and destroys the road surfaces. As
the cost of road maintenance:is bofine by you and
other motorists, you are interested in . helping
along; this movement to preserve Ontario's roads.
Those who persist in breaking P the Speed laws
will find a ntimerolls'trsmc patrol on -the highways,
whose ditty it is to rigidly enforce the law.
° THE HON:.,GEO, S. HENRY, =' S. T., SQUIRE,
Minister of Highways , .. ]f"cputyMieinter .

to secure the co-operation of motorists in

CONCERT VTOUNIZT NEkre,
William Wrigley, Weil Known' Chautauqua Favorite.
Out in a. 'midwestern City,'. made
yabously rich by black gold :gushing
from mother earth, a culture, 'un-
equaled; .has: developed, There," -pate
pie desire and can afford the best;
there, :Alice Cainpbell is the aoknow-l-
edged leader of things intellectual
and oulaural, That city is Wichita,
kansas•--one of the oil canters of
America. That charihiug lady is
heading the company that gives
bhautaugaaits snappy start,
Not a single detail bas been left
undone to make this program an ex.
ample of par excellence, It's .dies-
er, not ciassioaL; it's peun, yet con-
servative. Ever$'thing that's clone is
done well and much variety is en-
countered during their happy hour,
William Wrigley, with his true Eng-
' ish characteristics, Maio the violin
with accuracy, poise and precision).
His long experience with the Minne-
apolis Symphony assures any Chau -
Magna audience of a finished artist.'
Hie many ;seasons of Chautauqua ex.
parlance has enabled. him to•,proper
Iy choose his program. Therefore,
audiences may expect a popular pro-
gram artistically ,played. But that'd
not half of it. The, program -syn-
chronizes' into one big unit. When
"Agee Fever" is Over, all aches and
mains will'be forgotten. It's' a clever
/ilttle ektt, written especially for
Alice Campbell. It displays her abA-
ity as a reader and entertainer. Mr,
Wrigley as a violin virtuoso, and the
third member of -,tire group, Mr. Wil-
son, tenor and pianist . r.
The second' part •is a, symphony of
.the past wherein a bealitiful maiden
supposedly' a Meter, , in a frame,
comes to life, and, Id charming man
ner'taentertains the prince who has
fallen asleep. Colonial costumes of
choicest silks and satins bring Eine
back to "ye olden time." Elaborate
drapes and marvelous lighting effects
add. -to the -splendor and glory of the
second act,'
The third part—a modern sketch
dealing,. with that ever perplexing
probiein-Marriage troubles, The
$ketch'.15 doubly interesting because
it was written try William Wrigley.
Not often does a -musician qualify as
a playwright, but the breezy ;'sketch
will forever endear hire in the minds
of his audiences, He plays the 'part
of the forsaken lover to the extreme,
delight of all, Mr. Wilson and Alice
Camppell, as the • newly weds, will
bring back mempriest to the old—and
advice to the young. It's a •splashing
auooess.
For -three seasons this company
has heel deiigbtipg Chautauqua' folk:

one ,out of the routine and gives a new
'outlook it chance' to brush up against
other peopleand''perlia'ps gain ,a new
viewpoint on some of one's problems,
These little excursions. come to men
more bfters than -women. There -is no
class of women who .need a vacation
snore than'. 'the homemaker and
mother. Mothers as a'rule get down
right tired of their work, of minding
chilch•en and keeping House and every
one of them ought to have a yearly
ho'lfday. But, ,there is always a, big
but' here, there is no class of human
beings so hard tcepry away from their -
job as mothers. --They seem to
think, and they're pretty near 'right,
that nobody can take their place. Web,
suppose nobody .can, That is all. the
more reason why' their health and" _
well-being should be conserved. `••, The
mother of -a family in ;ordinary tire,
eumstauces cannot as a 1tfe. feava,,,-,
anyone in.eharge of her home lwlietWill'
manage things as well as she'iloet',c •
but .if' it can be arranged At all she:
should some time during the twelve
months, try to get away . frdin her
home for -anew days at least, She -
should leave as much as posible the
care of things 'behind,her, and rest,
not only her -body but her spirit, that
intimate self of her, which is the most
important contribution to the home of
'which she is the centre. When women
gmoiy a little 'wiser I believe they' will
never allow themselves to become .se,
tired and bored with their work that
they will become peevish and cross
and irritable. They will throw tip
their job and take a. holiday before
that stage is reached. Most irritable,
cross women are tired women If
such women could take a bit of a viae-
htion, meet some new people, have
time to array them5@1vea. In some
fresh garments, read a new book or
two, their outlook 'on life would be
very different.. 'After all, while keep-
ing a spotless home, doing the child=
red's sewing and keeping het, family
well nourished is an important part of
a woman's work, it is riot so impor-
tant as keeping her own physical,
mental and spiritual health up to the
mark so that she may continue to
Carryori her job efficiently. The
mother who keeps up with her child -
ran, who insists on their sharing her
world, who is interested in what goes
on about her, dresses as -well as she
can, afford to do and. does not allow
slaughter' to have all the- new clothes,
is the mother,who will retain the re-
spect of her children. A. moderately
selfish moi;her, that is, one who does
not make herself a slave to her fam-
ily, rears the finest children. If every-,
body cannot have a holiday this sum-
mer mother is the one who should
have it,
