DO YOU?
Do you give all your attention to
your car when you are driving? Do
you always drive at a reasonable
Ispeed, giving due consideration to
traffic, road and weather conditions?.
Do you always give the right of way

and .older people? Do you always

Dia you become excited when con-
fronted with a sudden emergency?
Do you always keep your car in per-

BUSINESS SUCCESS
There is altogether too much non_
sense talked about business. The
world is full of theorists, men who
can tell others how a business should
be operated, but who have never
been able to make a success of one
themselves. To conduct a business
Successfully three things are essen-
tial: t:noney, .ability and a tremend-
ous capacity for hard and strenuous
work. It is' the last of the three
which contributes the greatest part
to the success of a business, but it
is a wise combination of the three
which provides work for hundreds of
thousands of men and women all over
Canada. --Kingston Whig -Standard..
NOT SUCH A BAD, 'OLE!
lirrueanrtshave recently been killed
in an earthquake in. Formosa. One
way and another this seems to be
a, fairly good corner of the world.
Even when we suffer from what we
regard as a flood the damage is
comparatively slight.
We are far enough from the Euro -
'pear continent to watch without un-
due alarm the developments there,
.albeit our interest is not untinged
with some anxiety. We do not have
to try in absentia batches of fugitive
rebels and sentence them to death
as in Greece. We have no battle rag-
ing over a 120 -mile front as in Bol-
ivia.
However, this only puts it up to
us to preserve our happy state.
Earthquakes we cannot prevent, but
to a great extent we can control

"But there is one thing I am glad
to say," he added, "and that is that
the 1935 ladies' hats for Ascot will
enable then to see the racing,. in-
stead of having them over their eyes,
as they generally are."
Referring to the display which was
given in connection with the B. I.

worked itself up to be one of the
finest and biggest in the world. It
was bringing employment that was
badly needed.

not the type that mother used to
