All he needs is some- one to tell him how. VACATIONS Were you planning to take a vacation this year? You've earn- ed one, you know. After fifty- one weeks of work everyone is entitled to a weeks holidays. A change of routine and scene will do wonders for that stressed and strained feeling. But don't plan to spend your holiday at home just "doing nothing," for a whole week. You will find it is not as much fun as it sounds and you'll probably end up by doing all the odd jobs you've just never had time. to do. Then after the week is over you still will have very few new tings to think about. It is not quite as im- portant to rest your mind as your body. Even if you come back from your trip' more tired than when you started, it will do you good because 'of the new peo- ple and places you have to think about.

Inquire about Low Grain Costs In Truck Load Lots (DELIVERED TO YOUR FARM) DEITZ and SON ZURICH I can sense the farmers begin to bristle at the mention of a holiday. "Fine chance of a hol- iday," they are muttering, "with the cows to milk and the pigs to feed." Don't I recall a bit of a "breather" atter haying and be- fore harvest when you farmers have nothing to do but hoe and cultivate your root crap, and putter .about repairing your eq- uipment for the harvest to come. Why not avail yourself ofthis "spare" sane to take a little trip? Perhaps your neighbours would dike to get away too. Try of- fering to do his chores for one night if he returns the compli- ment the next weekend for you. Try taking a "Tourette". Take a m:ap and using the mileage scale measure off a piece of string representing 200 miles (that rep- resents a comfortable distance to travel in one day). Tack one end of the :string to your home town and with a pencil on the other end swing a little circle on the map. Inside the circle is your "Tourette" exploration area. By contacting your service st- ation you can get "for free" a personalized map package. If you tell them where you plan on going they will trace your routing clea- rly in green. Such special at- tractions as parks, both provin- cial and roadside will be marked, as well as airports, special rec- reation facilities, etc. The pack- age will contain as well, infor- mation to remake- your trip a suc- cess such as, directions for pack- ing, suggestions on what to take etc. You may find travelling is not as expensive as you think it is, if you .plan to have a couple of picnics 'along the way. Before you go, .it's .a good idea to speak to friends who have travelled your route and may have some tips on where to stay. Standard au- thorities, .such as the Canadian Automobile Association •are alw- ays invaluable sources of infor- mation. Plan to stop driving ab- out 4.30 in the afternoon and you will usually find an . attractive tourist court or tourist home av- ailable. Motels are a real haven to the auto traveller. Keep your eyes open for a motel, with an attractive up to date appearance set :far enough back from the road to be away from highway traffic •noise. -(Beware of run- down looking spots, especially if license plates are largely local. They may have questionable rep- utations.) • The average rate for a cabin, is $7. a day. Tourist homes ch- arge a somewhat lower rate .than motels and can be ;picked out by much the same standards. Most local citizens, especially business people will be happy to direct you to "the best place in town," When ordering food avoid: cold fish, meat or eggs --- and cakes or pastries with moist fillings. Often in small places, there is not adequate refrigeration facil- ities and these are easily con- taminated. Make sure anilk is a standard brand served in a sealed container or bottle. Nothing can ruin a vacation more quickly than car trouble so be sure to have your car checked before leaving. 1. Among the most frequent car troubles are flat tires and blow- outs. To avoid these problems, keep your tires properly inflated. Check frequently for cuts, bruises or uneven wear. Don't try to squeeze extra mileage out of worn out tires --- it doesn't pay. In case you do get a blowout --- keep calm, steer straight ahead and let the engine itself act as a brake. When you and the car are comipletely under control pump gently on the brakes and pull off to the side. 2. Here are some good rules for preventing overheating your en- gine. Use low gear only when necessary. Don't shut your en- gine off during constant periods of stop -sand -go driving. If you have repeated long waits +because of traffic conditions, speed up your motor for about 30 seconds at two minute intervals to make the fan turn faster. Shift into neu- tral during enforced idiling per- iods. 3. The good old summer time is no time for having anti -freeze sol- ution in your car's radiator. All types of anti -freeze tend to be come corrosive after one winter's use. Have your service stations drain off the anti -freeze solution, flush the cooling system and then fill it with water containing a corrosive inhibitor. 4. The oil pressure guage is ane of the most important instruments on the dashboard. But it should be remembered that this guage measures pressure, not quantity, and that oil must be maintained at the proper level to do a thor- ough job throughout the engine. The quantity can be measured only on the dipstick under the hood. Don't put o•ff changing oil at required intervals --- remember• that oil is cheaper than metal. PIANO-TUTN!NG and REPAIRING Alf.
