BAWDEN r V' Here’s how you pay for neglect AN under-inflated tire soon gets into • real trouble — broken side walls, a punctured inner tube — often a blowout. Under-inflation is one of the chief causes of premature tire failure. Tests have proven that every 10% drop from the cor rect inflation causes a 20% drop in mile age.

AND MRS .NORMAN MITCHELL, OF CENTRALIA To those who were near enough to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Norman F. Mitchell on Saturday last, there came floating ou the evening air, “sounds of revelry by night’’ and motorists passing along the 2nd con cession in front of Mr. Mitchell's home caught passing glimpses of a very happy party gathered around a glowing camp fire, roasting corn, hot dogs and marshmellows to their hearts’ content. The occasion was the second birth day party of the class in Victoria Hospital of which Miss Ada Mitchell has now been a member for two years. Transportation was arranged by Mr. Gordon Laidlaw and Mr. Ed. Webster and the whole party, be tween 25 and 30 strong, packed into Mr. Laidlaw’s big truck, sang its way out to Lucan, forgetting alto gether for a while the cares and re sponsibilities of a nurse’s life in a city hospital. After corn, hot dogs and marsh mellows had been thoroughly enjoy ed, the camp fire was deserted for a while iand the party went indoors. Here steaming icoffee and delicious home-made ice-cream added the fin ishing touches to a real ‘feast of plenty’ and music played its always effective part in completing a happy evening, Mr. Ed. Webster, baritone soloist of St, Andrew's church, Lon don, being good enough to sing for us songs which he knew were favor ites with the nurses. After hearty cheers for host and hostess and all those whose kind ness had contributed to the evening enjoyment, the truck was reloaded, and the party singing lustily “For they are jolly good fellows,” started back on its homeward way. P. S.—An effort was made to as certain the exact weight that the truck was carrying that night, but owing to some doubt concerning the accuracy of information given by individual members of the truck’s live freight it has been thought in advisable to publish results of the computation. The general opinion is that some people must in modesty have under estimated the size of the place they occupy in this world, and this pap er’s values its reputation for relia bility too well to risk it by publish ing figures as given. Jane Connolly, widow of the late James Millian, passed away after an illness extending over a period of two years. About three weeks ago the deaceased fractured her thigh, which no doubt hastened her death. Mrs. Millian was born in Ireland and at the age of two years she came with her parents to Goderich township. The deceased leaves to mourn her loss, one brother James Connolly, of Goderich and four dau ghters. ‘i *8252- ? 18522 ci/so RadioSas and Battery ‘fflode/s $285.00 J Will BWW ' Westinghouse is the Set for You here in i 51 1 M 3 Cantele $167.00 JEWELLER, 10 if you want full six tube power if you want true-to-life Tone quality if you want distance and easy tuning if you want economy and simplicity of operation if you want year ’round reception if you want selectivity, finely balanced if you want the greatest value offered rn Radio Come in and hear the new improved 1929 Radio bonsole and Compact Models from $82.50 to $395.00 AUTHORIZED WESTINGHOUSE DEALERS For Batteryless, Battery and the Full Line of Radiola Model* RABETHGE,F Successor to James Lawson; EXETER ONT. n Size 8ft. 6in. x 16ft.
