The Exeter Advocate, 1924-7-17, Page 5IU }� 1 Now Ready t'''he Dunlop Tr. il' Summer Resorts of Ontario in a Nutshell for the Motorist. The Dunlop Trail" is the "new -idea" touring book, which rep- resents the first attempt to lay Ontario before the holiday -seeker in such a way that he can motor ove, the Province systematically. The whole story of Ontario is told in sequence -Ontario from Winnipeg to Cochrane, to Windsor, to Montreal --yet the book only comprises forty pages, and is pocket size. Not a reference page from cover to cover -in other words, you get the whole story of a district when you are at the two pages covering that particular district. No advertising of any kind in "The Dunlop Trail." All reaps and illustrations specially drawn; all material specially compiled. Think of this feature: All your mileage figured out for you over the entire Province -the first time this has been at- tempted in the history of motoring. In "The Dunlop Trail" you find every River and Lake trip in Ontario that has a. schedule; also special Train trips; combination Auto, Boat and Train trips; the first complete list ever published of places in Ontario where Summer. Hotels are located; every Golf Club and Camp Site in the Province, and real information, s: h tier e you ' r ant it, about steamer and ferry services for taking autos aboard. In order to keep the circulation of "The Dunlop Trail" in the proper channel a nominal price of fifty cents has been put on it. Any Garage or Tire Dealer in Ontario will take your order for "The Dunlop Trail" or you can procure it direct from this Com- pany at any of the Ontario Offices mentioned below.

' REV HUNTER DIES AT GRANTON The death occurred suddenly in Granton on July 14th of Rev. .1, E. Hunter, pastor of the Granton Meth- odist church and secretary of the London Methodist Conference. Mr. Hunter went to bed Sunday night in what se,em:ed to be perfect health., 13.e had only been up a short while( Mon- cla ymon ing when he wag stricken and died before aid could be stimmaner.1. He had always been, art industrious and rtllfigent worker, and it is the be- lief of his friends that' n•e worked himself to a point where be suffered a complete (breakdotwn and iiad not the strength to fight Doff death- , He, was 'ordained in 1905 at the Listoweil conference„ ;and since that time has had five parishes. Sney were Harmony .yLersch, Dungannon, Lambeth and Granton. He was selected secretary, of the London Conference at the meeting In Windsor during the first week of June This, coupled with his duties in the London Epworth League, of which he was president, are thought to have brought to much work. He is survived by his widow, formerly Miss Minnie Robinson, daugh- ter of Rev. J. ;W. Robinson, 'and twp daughters. He is also survived by, one brother, Rev, William Hunter, who is connected with the Methodist church in Pennsylvania. The deceased was born in Morris Township, Huron County, and had all his early schooling there. DIDN'T KNOW HIS LUCK A political candidate was iaacens- ed at certain remarks which had been made about him in the leading paper of the town. He burst into the editorial room and exclaimed, "You , are telling lies about me in your pa -1 er and you know It-" [Here and There It is announced' -that vigorous efforts will be made, by the Gov- ernment of Manitoba to effect the actual settlement of 224,000 acres of vacant provincial land now under the administration of the Crown. For the week ended June 21st traffic earnings of the Canadian Pacific Railway amounted to $3,- 301,000, as compared with $3459,- 000 for the corresponding period of 1923. This is an increase of $142,- 000 or 4.4 per cent. Reports from the Rouyn gold fields of Quebec •continue to indi- cate a great future for that terri- tory. Development is proceeding apace and the English capital now Vowing into Canada in search of good investments is interesting it- self in this area. Three carloads of seed grain are being shipped weekly from : the provincial seed cleaning and mar- keting plant , at Edmonton, Alta. About 50,000 bushels of seed grain have been handled by the plant since last fall and 20,000 bushels .more will be handled before the 'Year's seeding is completed'. The International'Pa* Company intends to add two, new' machines to their plant in Three Rivers,' Que., so as to increase their production from 300 to 450 tons • daily. Another project is also under • consideration, viz., to build a plant in Batiscan instead of enlarging' the Three Rivers one. Out of every dollar the Company earns, the sum of 81 cents is spent by the Canadian Pacific Railway in the home markets= of Canada .for wages, materials, supplies, taxes and insurance, figures recently;.is- sued show. In 1923 the totta1 earn- ings of this great ;corporation were $195,837,089, and every community in Canada directly benefitted by the expenditure of 81 er cent. of this huge amount in the home market. Mr. and M'rs. Alex. Held, of. Buf- falo, visited with friends here last week. Mr. and Mrs. `August Walper, of Fort Wayne, Ind., are visiting with relatives at present.
