Motorists have corns to realize that the value in General Motors cars is increased by the service rendered by the splendid body of General Motors dealers located everywhere in Canada. These dealers offer you the convenience of buying through G M A C , General Motors' own time -payment plan. They also ex- tend the protection of the Genera!

GENERAL MOTORS CARS HAVE OUTSTANDING VALUE WHAT NEXT? It has bcsn said that hens v.-ere once wild ..'owl, and lived like all then- other wild feathered relatives; but now that they are no longer wild, we do not expect them to go back to the wild habits or customs. But hens do queer things when not watched. Fcr instance, the other day a hen, the property cf Miss Mary Little, climbed or flew into a treo. and pro- ceded to manfacturc an egg in a small , avity in the tree. \Ve hope all hens don't get the up-in-the-air notion, or aur trees will either have to be cut down or decorated with ladders.
