We would feel ashamed to have any of our loved ones in such unsightly surroundings. Happily the Ontario Legislature has taken action in regard to the care of God's acre. In the September number of the Muni- cipal World the following questions are asked: "In this community there is a neglected cemetery which before Church Union belonged to a church now closed, and at present, apparently, there is no one in charge Is the municipality in which the cemetery is situated required to keep it in respectable condition? If so, what should be the necessary steps to take? If the municipality is not responsible, what would be the proper course to improve. the conditions." The answer is: "The municipality is responsible if the owner can not be found is unknown, or unable to attend to the ceme- tery. An owner who fails to main- tain a cemetery is liable- to a penalty of $10, and • a further penalty of $5 for every day in which default continues. A council may pars by- laws for the maintenance, !manage- ment, regulation, and control of arty cemetery owned by the corpora- tion, and make, by by-laws an an- nual grant to the present owner or a township cemetery board of from 1 three to seven persons, appointed by by-law." It would not be sur- prising to us if complaint is made I next summer to township councils in some of the municipalities of Bruce and Grey to have neglected cemeteries attended to, Probably action would have been taken before this if those who are interested in the last resting places of human bodies know how to proceed to have the natter remedied.— Chesley Enterprise.

Twenty-five years ago Thomas Hubert, now employed as a ba,- gageman on the C. P. It. between Ottawa and North Bay, lost a valu- able silver watch while workin; in a field near Pembroke.

The trainload of artificial snow that was brought from Hollywood to Lake Louise recently was not required by John Barrymore, in producing an Alpine movie story to be released shortly, as plenty of the real stuff was available at the glaciers. This popular actor, with Camilla Horn and a cast of about twenty-five 'persons, spent some three weeks at the Chateau Lake Louise, rising each morning at four o'clock (i order to reach their "locations" on Victoria and Saddle- back Glaciers in time to get the best light effects in the morning for their various "shots", When a young couple from Cal- gary drifted back to the station at Winnipeg 10 minutes after the "Im- perial" had left for the east, Can- adian Pacific officials were given the choice the other day of feeding and otherwise caring for a nine - months -old baby for two days or holding the train Cor thirty-five minutes at North Transcona. They chose the latter, much to the re- lief of .the porter and conductor, who are not family men. a,The re- united family sailed on the "Mont- rose" to spend Christmas in the old country.

To effect this the Cana- dian National Railways Radio De- !partment has planned the longest ! East to West tic -in ever prepared on this continent, requiring over 10,000 miles of telegraph and telephone wires to hook up the fourteen broadcasting stations in the five time zones of the Dominion, from tidewater to tidewater, linking Ha- lifax with Vancouver. The "key" station on this oc- ' rasion will be C'NRM, at Montreal, and from the Metropolis Sir Henry will speak to the hundred thousand employees of the National System. One other address will be made, that by W. D. Robb, Vice -President, who directs the radio activities of the company. Mr, Robb will speak in French. A programme of musical and vocal offerings by a selected group of artists has been arranged for this special occasion. During a period of five years this annual tie. -in broadcast has been increasing in magnitude. In 1024 S id.'i,h„', Banff f Top left, Kay Harrison, Queen au the t :r,: •1,,,. i.

When folding up a top be careful that no part of the fabric gets caught between the bows, particu- larly the metal stops where one bow rests upon another, On account of the shaking of the car while running the fabric will be weakened at that spot, and if left a few days will be worn away, snaking a number of small holes. PROTECTION OF TIRE AND TUBE Gasoline, oil, grease, heat and light and deadly foes of tires. A little gasoline may be used to wipe off oil or grease if allowed to eva- porate immediately. Spare tubes and shoes should be protected from light, which, however, does not seem to effect the tires on a car, probably because they are kept lively by use, KEEP TOOLS IN TOOL -BOX OF CAR. It s poor practice to leave the garage without frill equipment of tools in the car.

These include one or two tire sleeves or blowout patches, a grease gun, two rolls of wire tape, extra light bulbs, a ball of heavy twine, an extra oil can for use in injecting gasoline, a can of grease, a gallon can of cylin- der oil, and a tightly corked paint can filled with gasoline, CARE OF BRAKES. Many of the accidents that fill space in almost every daily paper are blamed on defective brakes. In many cases, the brakes may have been responsible for their mishap, but lack of attention has been the underlying cause of their failure to work, or defection at the critical moment. Brakes should be kept in the beet of eendition--both sets of them. They should bind tightly when pressure is applied to them, and be free and clear when the pres- sure ie reiera.-ud. Should the brake Laud0;; d when pressure is taken from 't, f:'i.tion 1e produced and the car runs with difficulty.
