His personality as ,much as his voice'

ling.
"A ntraighn singer at first, the

'During the pest year Mr. Wolper

Hon. T. B. McQuesten Says
Public Determination
Best Preventive,
EXTRA CARE NEEDED
Hon. T. B. McQuesten, Ontario Mire
ister of Highways, today , made a.
grong plea On behalf of motorists
and pedestrians for a "Merry 'Christ-
mas and a Happ-y New Year."
, Strong efforts, he said, would be
made by bis 'department to keep the
nighwaya, of the province as free from
accidents during the holiday season
as is hurtranly possible.
He pointed outthat open, ana safe
roads play an important function dur-
ing the Yuletide season in allover*
members of families to go back home
for Christmas and in enabling friends
40 visit eacth other in town and coun-
try. During this ,season, extra heavy
demands are put on streets and (high-
ways by commercial twee.
"Roads can never be rode safe,"
declared Mr. McQuesten, "by means
entirely of traffic' signs, police' super-
vision, legislative action or improved
,highway engineering. There is only
one factor which caa eneure absolute
highway safety—and that is the de-
terrienaeion of the people who use
the highways.
"If Some magic touchstone could ,be
found which would make every mo-
torist, trucker, motorcyclist, bicyclist'
and pedestrian safe from accident ha.z-
ards, our troubles would be over. But
that rnagieitbuchstonteis within reach.
It is 'public determination.' That is
the . one thing which will make our
signs and laws and; patnoa officers ef-
fective. If all who use the Mel:sways
are determined there shall be no ac-
cidents, then there won't be. any. But
we must INOt confuse determination
with just 'wishing' or hoping!"
Many drivers, the highways' minis-
ter said, are inclined to relax their
careful driving habits during the
Christmas holidaysi—the one time in
the year when the strength of sucb
habits should be increased. Winter
weatlter and heavy traffic conditions
make delving at this time a difficult
job, the stated, and call for extra vig-
ilance.
Mr. McQuesten praised the work
being done throughout Ontario by
municipalities at this season in the
prevention of traffic fatalities and ac-
cidents, and believed that many holi-
day accidents could be avoided by ad-
herence to the rule: "If you drink,
don't drive; if you drive, don't drink."

He looked like a big china doll in
