eague—Traffic Accident Toii is
Greater Than War in Libya
Hon. T. B. MeQuesten, Ontario's
highway minister, in a brief ad-
dress at the annual "safe drivers"
banquet, of the Ontario Safety Lea-
gue, said "we ate not going to
build any more low standard roads,
even if we build no road at aII;" Sufficient hazards existed, he said,
without poor roads.
Louis B. Duff of Welland, Ont.,
said the tale of the highways is
one of the "very darkest in the
history of the province," He com-
pared the number killed on the
highways of Ontario last year With
the British losses in the conquest
of Libya, Highway deaths last year
were 725 and the British conquest

WASTE O1 HUMAN LIVES
A. G. Partridge, president of the
league, paid a tribute to the com-
mercial car "safe drivers." They
had driven 162,735,000 accident -
free miles, Ile said gross economic
loss in Ontario traffic accidents
reaches $20,000,000 to $25,000,000.-
00a yearly.
Tile war will tax human and ma -
tenial resources to the limit, Mr,
Partridge said, and to survive all
waste must be eliminated, "I thiuk
you will agree," he said, "that traf-
fic accidents constitute a form of
economic waste that we might well
do without,"

Shade Trees Add
Value to House
Builders of new homes will
find it advisableto set aside a
small sum of money for a sizable
shade tree, land planting experts
say.
It was suggested that the home
owner go to a reputable nursery-
man and select h tree of a hardy,
long-lived variety which will add
permanent value to the property.
The owner should avoid one
that will grow so rapidly as to be
seriously injured by the first
wind or ice storm, or one whose
roots will collie to the surface
and injure lawns or will clog
sewer lines.
Some hardy trees are naturally
low -branched or cast dense shade
and if used, should be placed
where they will not interfere
with lawns, driveways and walks.

was unfortunate enough ;to emit
a lead, rasping hiccup. A French-
man, sitting by her, immediately
apologized profusely, as if he had
conmlittedthe faux pas. When
the ladies had left the dining-
room, an American asked the
Frenchman why he had acted in
this manner,
"As "monsieur knows, wearea
chivalrous people," was the re-
ply. "I saw that madame was em-
barrassed, so I tried to throw the
blame on myself;"
Presently the men joined the
ladies upstairs, After -a little
while the American found him-
self in conversation with his
hostess in the middle of a group
of guests.
Suddenly the alarming incident
was repeated the hostess hie-
cuped again.

"But why didn't you bring it

"How could 1?" replied Pat.

An 'AIbanian was imprisoned
by the Italians. He annoyed his

One day the officer in charge

and said: "Look here, . if you'll
shut your month I'll make you
an officer in the Italian army,"

Next day Mussolini visited

5. Isn't it the proper thing
for a hostess to insist upon pay-

6. What should one say when

Answers
1. No. It is better to telt the
truth and face the consequences.
The only justification for .a
"white lie" would be to protect
another f>.'oni injury, or give
happiness to the person who is
burdened. 2. No, if we think
that the persons towards the end

usually once is sufficient. 3. Yes,
the bride has the privilege of ex-

width and size and her choice of
gold, white gold or platinum.
4. Yes, but not in a scolding man-
