Over in Bruce a car 'driven without lights crashed into a ! rnij^v, smashed ihe vehicle badly and drove on without waiting to 'see what damage was clone. Ot 'course the owner ot the hiijf I could not catch the license number in the dark, and the criminal got clear away without a chancv of penaltv for his act Ry^ht here in I-'lesherton we have i noticed cars driving without lights, and have received cnmphiints fiom other sources. The practice seems to he more coir.mon than formerly, owiiijj to the immunity enjoyed by such transgressors. \Ve believe the solution lies in forcing all ve- hicles which travel the highways at night to carry lights. H\ making- 'the carrying of lights compulsorj \'J l> per cent, of such collisions would be eliminated. It tre>.|uentl\ .happens that a car may he within a i few feet of a huyyy before th I driver can see it, owing to condi- tions of road. This is especially true when moving over hilly or rol- ling country where headlight beams j are deflected . W'th the amount of night auto I travel on our highways now it i> folly to delay the passing of a law [making il necessary for all vehicle.- I to carry a light. For ourselves, if i we were called upon to travel on out main toads with horse or horses i we would carry a light a a mattei |ol personal precaution, law or no law. The lightless anto is a menace to all users of the road and the ihixer should be classed with the bandits and puni>lieU as a bandit. The trouble is to catch him and that is the great problem that awaits sol- ution. .Mi. Biggs should get busy in Ihe matter and makt an effort to solvn it at next session of thel.egis. I iliure. T. C. BLAKELEY Merchant Tailor HOW DID HE DO IT? The Advance prints on \Ycdne>- d.iv morning, Ihe Tara I.eacUr on I Thursday. Last week we primed an eclitoral opinion on the new Can- adian emblem, deploring the re- moval ol the he^v*r and substituting ;i/ lion therefor, Friday merniH^; the Tara Leader arrived at thi* and hehold ! its editorial I Let Us Overhaul Your Car * THIS WINTER It costs less to keep a car in good health than it does to treat sick cars. Lack of inspection means break downs, High mile- age costs, expensive repairs'and loss of use. We would suggest that you leave your car with us this win- ter and allow us , to makejany repairs necessary and have it in tip-top condition when the beau- tiful spring appears again. Our storage space is bieng pretty well taken up and we have only room for a few more cars. Come in and let us ex- plain our winter overhaul prop- osition to you. WINTER BATTERY SERVICE Every owner who brings a battery to us for winter storage is assured that it is being kept in good shape. We want you to get the best possible service from your battery, and you won't unless jt is properly taken care of during the winter months. Acetylene Welding Please remember that we can weld that broken casting, etc., and save you real money. All welding work guaranteed. D. McTavish & Son column contained our article with- out any marks to show that it had been copied. We are pleased to Unmv that Krolher VanDusen's opinion coincides with ours in this matter. Hut it was lightning work on his part. His shears must be kepi hot anil dull editing such a tine paperjas the Leader. That is our opinion of that, and Bre'r Van- J'nxcn is welcome to it, too. NO TIME TO LAUGH Mr. Morrison thinks the press of Onlaiio \\ill gloat \vith a tieice gloating over the tailure'ot the Co- operative stores. We have seen no evidence of this in our exchanges, however. PosMbly Mr. Morrison's wisli was father to the thought. As a rule the press of this country does not laugh over the troubles or losses sustained by .its fellowmen. At the present time publishers have enough troubles of their own to contend with without taking time to plav hvena. NOTES A band of three evangelists made application lor the use ot Durham town hall in which Ui hold Cervices, but the towi\ fathers refused to grant the request, and the evangel- ists shook tile dust of Durham from their feet. Durham Councillors evidently think their town is all right just as it stands that is, from a moral and spiritual standpoint. Well, maybe, but ' we hue 001 doubts. '' Still, the evangelists re- ferred to may not have been the right stripe as teachers, and the couitcillors of Durham are no doubt capable judges in a delicate matter of this kind.
