This will" be a SPECIAL special, so watch for more news about this, . too. Meantime, Storytime, (at 10:15 Tuesday mornings) is enjoyed by an increasing number of preschool child- ren; twenty-three in attend- ance last week. In addition to reading the ~ current issure of the Port Perry Star at the library you may now read two other weekly newspapers there as well: The Thursday Post (from Lindsay), and the Uxbridge Times Journal. Only current issues of these out-of-town papers will be available, but, thanks to the generosity of the Port Perry Star. in providing bound copies of each year's issues, you may read any Port Perry Star dating back to. January 9, 1969. An Encyclopedia of World Art has been added to the reference section. This encyclopedia has fifteen vol- umes, approximately half of each volume is made up of plates both in black and white and in colour. These are beautiful and informa- tive books. Come in and feast your eyes.on the art of the ages! In October a new service in paperback books began at the library, a program that will operate for a six month trial period.

"a When buying a 1975 car, consider 6 important facts. Cars equipped with catalytic converters require the use of unleaded gasoline. Unleaded gasoline is not readily available. However, all Ford of Canada carlines have been engineered without catalytic converters and can run on any gasoline -- regular, premium or unleaded. Read the full story: Cars equipped with catalytic converters - require the use of unleaded gasoline. In order to meet the new Canadian exhaust emission standards, some 1975 cars are equipped with a catalytic converter, which is an emission . control device that requires the use of more expensive unleaded gasoline. Unleaded gasoline is not readily available. + Although unleaded gasoline may be available at up to 40% of gasoline stations in some major urban "centres. it will be substantially less in rural areas. The Department of Industry. Trade and Commerce survey, dated June, 1974, states that on a national basis, unleaded gasoline will not be available at 8 out of 10 stations in Canada, as of October 1. 1974. Government sources "had this to say regarding 1975-1976 Canadian emission control standards. ral Government plansio mission controls for 1975- model Canada that will produce a her reduction of 5% In exhaust ons but will neither require use of lytic converters nor result in any urther reduction in fuel economy." "The new proposed Canadian 1975 automobile emission standards, while they will be mora stringent than the present 1973 standards, wil not be as stringent as the proposed U.S. 1975 standards." "The proposed 1975 standards for Canada will not require use of any catalytic converters." "The faderal announcement yesturday sald that the 1975 Canadian emission standards 'can be accomplished by the use of such devices as early fuel evap- oration, efectronic ignitions, and improved. carburetors'." "If catalytic converters are not required on Canadian cars there will be less of a demand for unleaded gasoline in Canada." -- From. a news report published in The Globe & Mail, July 20, 1973. . ; The Ministry of Transport has stated "that the Ministry intends to enforce in the year 1976, the same automobile exhaust emission standards as are being established for 1975." -- Excerpt from a Department of Transport letter to the Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Association, dated February 20, 1974. All Ford of Canada carlines have been ~ engineered to run on any gasoline and meet the new 1975 Canadian emission control standards without - requiring catalytic converters. There's a significant difference between Canada and the United States in exhaust emission standards for 1975 cars. The Canadian Government decided to adopt mor reasonable emission standards than those in the United States. which meant that catalytic converters were not necessary to meet the Canadian standards. So for 1975. Ford of C: nada decided not to lollow suit with Ford in the United States --- although it would have been much easier (and less costly) to do so. Ford of Canadh's decision to minimize the need for catalytic converters in Canada shows our real concern for you, the motorist. We decided to offer cars without catalytic converters because a) a catalytic converter could be an extra expense for you. b) the unleaded fuel that's required for catalytic converters is in limited supply in Canada, and. ¢) unleaded gasoline is more expensive than the lower priced regular. Now in order to meet the 1975 Canadian exhaust emission standards, without the use of catalytic converters, Ford of Canada invested over S| million in an extensive program involving significant engineering changes. additional com- plexity in our assembly plants and other special programs. The result is that all engines (with the exception of one -- the optional 2.8 litre V6), for all 1975 lines of Ford of Canada cars, meet the standards, without requiring catalytic converters, and do so while running on any gasoline -- unleaded. premium or the lower priced regular. FFord ol Canada feels that this will mean a lot to motorists who are not able to find unleaded sgasoline in their normal driving and Tuel-shopping 7 patterns. P: ticularly. those who live in rural areas, or are travelling to the cottage or ski slopes -- where unleaded gasoline availability is substantially less than major urban centres. Buying or leasing-Right now you can select a oo 1975 car from stock at your Ford or Mercury | FORD! dealer which will run on any gasoline. .. These " Extenders" have been engineered into every 1975 Ford and Mercury carline. In addition to the convenience of being able to use any gasoline, anywhere, a number of features, which we call "Economy Extenders", have been engineered into every 1975 Ford of Canada carline. These include: + Solid state ignition that eliminates the points and condenser and improves fuel cconomy over long periods due to a more stable spark plug performance « Improved engine tuning on many engines which results in better fuel economy and performance + Optimized rear axle ratios that contribute to less engine wear and lower fuel consumption by proper matching to load and use requirements * Steel-belted radial tires-that extend tread life and reduce rolling friction for better gas mileage. In addition, extended service intervals con- tribute to reduced maintenance requirements, and therefore, lower operating costs. Right now, Ford and Mercury dealers can give fast delivery on cars in stock which run on any gasoline --unleaded, premium or the lower priced regular. Ford and Mercury dealers can give you [ast delivery of a new 1975 car from the large stock they have on hand right now.
