sat down together to participate in
the sumptuous repast•proviclecl by the
l ladies of the congregation, under the
} capable leadership of Mrs. Gordon to-
gether with the hearty co-operation
of the ladies of the congregation. Ev-
erything was so arranged that all pre-
sent could take their respective places
at the table. Waiters and waitresses
were unnecessary. After full justice
had been done to 'a .full course din-
ner of fowl and other ,good things.
some impromptu speeches were made
by members of the gathering, whiclii
feature was interspersed with coinni-

leaves an injustice to the driver who
is careful and on whose policy the
companies make money.
Another disadvantage in increased
rates will be that the person who
finds it fairly hard . to ' finance the
running of a car will not carry any,
insurance at all. If he runs into
trouble there will be no protection
on which he can draiv. In such a
case he will be in a bad position in
regard to his own loss and also that
AUTO INSURANCE RATES
It is reported that a very consider-
able increase will be annuonced in
automobile insurance. Official fig-
ures have not been given yet, but es-
timates are that it will be about fifty
percent. upward,
The reason advanced is that there
have been so many automobile acci-
dents during the past year that there
is no money in the insurance business
at present figures.
The increase in rates seems log-
ical enough. Companies insuring
cars are not in the business for their
health, and if, there are so many los-
ses on policies the only course open
is to bring the rates tip 'aghere: they
wilt offset the .Cost of the smashing.
of cars. '
'rhe 'objectionable feature is that
the person who drives very carefully,
and who ltas never had an accident
will be pantilh nd just the same as the
person who has taken out of the in-
surance •companies many pixies More
than he has every paid. in, It might
entail too much work to sell insur-
ance on that basis, but not to do so
of a person whose ear or property he
rnay% have damaged.
The prospects of increased insur-
ance rates should make drivers do
some thinking. They are bringing
the thing on themselves. Had they
been careful; had losses been low;
there would be no increase. As the
'thing stands now it looks as though
the smash-up: driver were . going to
increase the cost for those who have
always been careful ,
