ABRIGHT NEW FRESHNESS greets your eyes
and tells you: Buick's done it again.
You see it in the bold distinction of that gleam-
ing Wide -Screen Grille. You see it in the rakish
sweep of the rear -end contours. You see it in
the whole fore-and-aft newness of fleet -lined
grace that marks Buick the beauty thrill of 1955.
New horsepower—up to 246
You learn more when you get the power story.
Up to new peaks go the horsepowers of every
Buick V8 engine—a walloping 188 h.p. in the
low -price SPECIAL—a mighty 236 h.p. in the
CENTURY, SUPER and ROADMASTER.
And it's new, more responsive, far abler power
you can literally feel as you go.
But even bigger Buick news for 1955 is some-
thing more than style and power. It's what the
"variable pitch propeller" now bad done for
Dynaflow Drive.*
Up goes performance—and gas mileage too
When you find it necessary to push the pedal
to the floor board, you do more than call on the
greatest high -compression V8 power in Buick
history.
You do what a pilot does when he heads his
plane down a runway.
You do in oil what he does in air—you cut
down take -off time by using "variable pitch
propellers."
In this case, the propeller blades are inside the
Dynaflow unit. But they're engineered to swivel
or change their "pitch" jusrlike plane propellers
NOW ON DISPLAY
WHEN BETTER AUTOMOBILES ARE BUILT BUICK WILL BUILD
—and with the same result: one pitch for get-
away, another pitch for gas -saving fuel efficiency.
And what you get in the way of instantaneous
safety -surge with absolute smoothness, you can only
believe when you feel it.
This you/have to try '
Of course, we want you to come and see the
trend -setting new Buicks—look into the better-
ments in gasoline mileage that add new thrift
to these spectacular cars.
But this year, "seeing" is only the beginning.
So—join tfie crowds viewing the new Buicks,
and make a date to get behind the wheel as soon
as we can have a demonstrator available. We
promise you the thrill of the year.

The Junior and Banta' i lioirs
led the Carols' at the Christmas
services at Northside en' Sun-
day. In the morning, Rear. J.
W. Stinson preached on the
theme, "The Silvery Trumpets
of Christmas,"
The trumpets of Faith Love
and Courage call us to Jive as
active, dynamic followers of
the Christ. Salvation by faith
means nothing to us unless we
exercise that faith. Freedom of
speech means nothing unless we
have something to say. The
phrase, the priesthood of all be-
lievers, is empty, if we never
act as priests, nor lift up a
prayer. "Christmas is the time
of allowing God's love to be
borne anew in our hearts."
The choirs sang the carols,
"Jesu Bambino," Come Marie,
Elizabeth" and solo, "Winds
Through the Olive Trees," by
Gene Nixon.
At 7, p.m., the carol service
was rich in color and harmony,
when with scripture portions
and carols the story of the Com-
ing of the Christ was told.
Among the carols were: Tonne's
"Sing, 0 Heavens"; "The Vir-
gin's Lullaby" and Gebaert's
"Joyous Christmas Story." The
combined choirs sang the beau-
tifully arranged carol, "And
There Were Shepherds."
The choirs were led by Miss
Mabel Turnbull and Mr. and
Mrs. James A. Stewart.

dal bouquet was white mums
and pink rosebuds.
Four attendants preceeded the

identically gowned: Miss Flynn
in red, Miss Chapman and Miss
Taylor in blue iridescent taffeta

bride, was a winsome little
flower girl, frocked in red ir-
idescent taffeta, full skirt, bodice
with yoke of white embroidered
nylon, and all carried cascades
of white mums.
Ernest Hemphill, St. Marys,
was groomsman, and Donald
Mousseau and Donald Cowan,
of Hensall, ushered.
For the reception held in the
church parlors, Mrs. -Henderson
received wearing a dress of Dior
blue with navy accessories and
corsage of pink carnations. The
groom's mother chose a mink
brown costume with green ac-
cessories and corsage of pink
carnations.
For their wedding trip to
Michigan, the bride donned a
powder blue knitted suit rose-

white carnations. Mr. and Mrs.
Lindsay will reside in Goderich.

bers presented the bride -elect
with a gift and Mrs. Don Flear
and Miss Jean Mousseau ar-
ranged a presentation for her at
the home of her parents, when
she was presented with a tri -
light floor lamp.
THE VOICE OF ,
TEMPERANCE
WHY NOT?
A clever young lad, just
out of High School, was in-
vited into a fraternity to
have a drink. He declined
pleasantly. "Why not?"
That isn't the picture I have
of myself!" He was a star
athlete. He was keen on
modern science. After a
University course and post-
graduate studies, he went
into an airplane factory.
When war broke out the
government requisitioned
his services. He did re-
search work on wing
strains, ice formations,
moisture densities. Certain
it is that he was one work-
man who did not let our
flying men down,----(Advtj.

TO THE EDITOR
Zurich, Dec. 14, 1954.
Editor, The Huron Expositor:
Dear Sir: May I congratu-
late you and thank you for that
splendid article, `Matters of
Concern," on the editorial page
of Dec. 3. This article, which
points out what we should be
concerned about, should be cop-
ied by all the newspapers in
Canada, warning the citizens of
this country what is ahead and
what the consequences ' will be
if we continue in our present
way of thinking and living.
Yours truly.
PETER DEICKERT
P.S.—I have been greatly in-
terested in articles on econom-
ics and read an article tonight,
written by R. J. Deachman, in
Farmer's Advocate of Nov. 12,
1942, "The Farmer Builds the
City," and find the article quite
up-to-date at this time. Mr.
Deachman's articles used to ap-
pear in The Expositor. Can we
get him interested to write
again? Thanks.—PD.
(Editor's Note: It is regretted
that because of serious illness it
has not been. possible in recent
years for Mr. Deachman to pre-
pare his interesting articles for
publication. It is hoped that his
condition will improve to a
point where his contributions
may be resumed.)
