In August the number of vehicles pur- . chased ad-anced by 9.9 percent, and the value 12.3 perceat, seeming to show that Canadians are huying more expensive cars. It is interesting at least, and pdssib- ly significant, to' ncte that in every province except Alberta more new cars were sold in August of '36 than in August of '35. Thus Manitoba has showed . gain of 36 percent, Saskat chewan of 29, British Columbia of 17. Quebec of 23, Ontario of seven, the Maritime Provinces of 11.

Tue 'most exciting episode occurred in 1897 when eviction papers were served on the Greer family. ; The Greer homestead was visited by Sheriff W. J. Armstrong and-a large party of police officers, Sam: uel Greer met them with a barrage of buckshot. After the smoke of bat tle had cleared away several casual ties were taken to the hospital ana Vith the defence relegated to Mrs, Greer officers of the law moved mm, seized the family furniture and loaded it on a box car. When they started to raze the house Mrs. Greer countered by removing her furniture from the car. Officers rushed back to the car only to find the staunch defender had repossessed the nome- stead. 4 'A parley was held. Mrs. Greer agreed to surrender providing the invaders caught and crated her chickens, and milked her cow, This was agreed to and for the next hour officers of the law were busily scouring the woods for errant chick- ens, i A t Alter the chores were accomplish- ed Mrs, Greer changed her mind and refused to budge from the family property. The battle ended for the time being with transfer of Mrs. Greer and her children to town. The fight - for possession of the household, however, continued in the courts. As late as 1900 Samuel -Greer was endeavouring to prove ownership to the property. He dled in 1925 no nearer a settlement than when the dispute first arose forty years before. : ----- | Oxford Press Acquires i Interest In Firm LONDON -- The Oxford Univer sity Press has acquired an interest in Clarke, Irwin and Company Toronto, and will be represented on the board of directors by 'Sir H.mphrey Mil ford and John Henry, it was learned here.
