But goodness, seven boats in as many days! Looks like we have developed into a bunch of : Lee Rail Vikings, and that ain't good. We believe that there is a neck 'n neck race going on for the Diver's cup. Do you know what this par- ticular trophy is and what it is for? You don't? How kind of you to leave an opening for us like that, This cup is a long standing tradi- tion of noble parentage. It is built out of the best quality tin funnel available at the best quality hardware store, Mounted on its wood base it looks like a cross between a Dragoon's helmet and de Vinci's first effort to- wards armouring vehicles for warfare. When in one's possession the rules say that it is to be displayed in the most prominent position in one's home. Generally, the recipients seem a little restive about such a display of their carelessness, \ But should we call it ,carelessness'? There seems to be a certain amount 6f finesse in this busines of dumping not contained in the characteristics of all sailors. For example compare this Whitby type to Gord Robertson. Whitby has a big schooner that should lay over .on her side as gently and easily and with the same gracious motion as a rock slide off Mount Everest, But does He roll her over on her side? No, the dope sinks her without letting her wet her masts, sinks. her right into the mud! Clumsy? Like an elephant with a flute! Ah, but Gord Robertson! There is that past master at the art of dump- ing sail boats, None of this sinking tally before he lets any water in the hull. Sounds easier than sinking eh, just try it sometime, wise guy, Whitmore does a fair job along those lines but can't seem to keep his ballast under control. If he'd of listened to | Clare Glass on Sunday we feel sure. he'd of wetted his mast before he shipped water into his hull. Enough of this palaver: just re- member what went into winning the Diver's Cup when you hear the win- ner's announced. The ""Pony" that replaces o Team ITH the introduction of the "Pony" tractor, Massey-Harris extended the advantages of power farming to practically everyone who makes his living from the soil. There are thousands of farmers and market gardeners whose acreage does not justify the investment in large-size tractor equipment. Such men were barred from the use of power machinery until the "Pony" came into the picture. Today, it is helping them to increase their farm output, reduce production costs, and eliminate old-fashioned drudgery. tractor. The *'Pony'yis an outstanding example of the farm-minded engineering that lies behind: every Massey-Harris machine. the "Pony", Massey-Harris engineers were not. content merely to build a small-size low- cost tractor. They studied the kinds of work Established 1847 MONCTON WINNIPEG MONTREAL YORKT: SWIFT CURRENT CALGARY ORKTON REGINA that a small tractor would have to do, in practical farm use, to give satisfaction to itg owner...and they calculated the require ments of power, traction, weight, and en- durance that such work would call for. result, the Massey-Harris "Pony" out-weighs, out-pulls, and out-works every other tractor in its class. It will do more Work than a team, and much more work than a little walk-behind Going further, Massey-Harris engineers designed an assortment of quick-mounted tools for the "Pony" . . . exactly the right size to yield the maximum amount of finished work In designing r hour of time and per gallon of gasoline. With these tools, the "Pony" not only does more work than a team, but does it better, faster and cheaper. Massey-HARRi1s As a 3 BRANDON EDMONTON SASKATOON VANCOUVER ~ a - Port Perry Rod & Gun Club.
