Some of us like to drive slowly; others like to travel faster. (I am not referring to the “speed fiends” who drive recklessly and dangerously, but to the rank and. file of sane, sensible drivers.) There is~a wide variation . in OUr preferred speeds. .. When the road is clear and open, we have every reasonable right to give these preferences free rein, and travel at any speed which suits, us—up to the legal limit. But I believe you will agree that when traffic is heavy, it is neither courteous nor fair to tfaveTfast^ the general speed at which • the traffic is moving. At suqh times, the deliberately slow driver blocks the . road for all who are behind him.. It becomes irksome and wearying to those who have long trips still ahead Of them — and finally induces them to “cut in” or take chances which they would never take udder other . circumstances. On the other hand, it is equally discourteous fpr fast drivers to cut in and out of the traffic lane when traffic - IS moving at a reasonable speed. It upsets and un­ nerves the more cautious drivers; increases the acci­ denthazard tremendously; and invariably saves only averyFEW minutes of time in the end. . I appeal to BOTH kinds of drivers to let themselves be governed by the true SPIRIT .of Courtesy—to ' consider the convenience and the-"safety of fellow­ motorists*, as well , as their rights. Let us show the same courtesy to others on the highway, that we show to visitors in our homes. It will go a long way toward making our highways SAFER, and in making motoring' still more pleasant.

Thos. Adkins. • • " 7; Bev. James. Caswell and Rev. John Walker were among those who servet the church- well in those garly days. In 1867, Ashfield circuit was first formed consisting gf Hackett’s a.nd Zion appointments; When the present church at Zion was built three score years ago the circuit comprised Hac­ kett’s, Zion, Hope arid Mt.

PROMINENT MUSICIAN 1 w CONDUCTED MUSIC EXAMS (Continued from Page 1) In 1908, Mr. Tattersail came to Toronto, as, organist of St, Thomas’ Anglican Church, 'where he remained seven years. For 20 years he was organist and choirmaster at Old St. Andrew’s Church. At ■ present, he holds a similar Position in St. Paul’s United Church. He has been a mem­ ber of the Toronto .Conservatory of Music faculty for many years. His experience as an examiner’ for the .Conservatory goes back., to 1912. Mr. Tattersall has b£bn music dir­ ector at Upper Canada Collegiate for the. past 11 years. For six years he was also ,a mem­ ber of the teaching staff of the Thomas Whitney Surette summer, school of music’ at Concord, Mass. Mr, Tattersall is also well-known in Canada and the United States as an accompanist, having appeared jwith such world-famous artists as Mme. Pasquale apd Signor Scotti. . With Sir Ernest MacMillan, prin­ cipal of the Toronto Conservatory of Music, he first produced Bach’s “St. Matthew Passion” in Toronto, 15 years ago. This choral work has be­ come an annual event in Toronto cir­ cles. i Mr. Tattersall claims credit for “discovering^’ Dr.- Healy Willan. Some years ago when that composer was comparatively unknown, Mr. Tattersall played nearly all of his published works in. St. Thomas Church, Toronto. Largely as a result of this. Dr. A, S. Vogt, then princi­ pal of the Toronto Conservatory of Music, invited Dr. Willan from Eng­ land, offering him a position on the Conservatory staff. ° 4- • / Theatre | THURSDAY; JULY 9TH. 1936 ,rrrr 1S. ........, i;.........; y?, .. ;jk I-/1’ I ,.h- . .
