Keefer j BOX SOCIAL .\ND CONCERT The Auto Sleighs Are On The Roads Again This Yeaur Last winter Mr. George Bracken- bury, mechanic at D. McTavish's garage, built a winter automobile from a Chevrolet chassis and engine. It had certain defects which Mr. Brackenbury has endeavored to elim- inate, and evidently he has succeeded. On Saturday evening he tried out his new model, which is of the coupe style, driving out to Badgeros. On the Mclntyre-Badgeros sideroad he declares that he encountered snow- drifts ten feet deep. The road was as full of snow as the storms of winter can make it, and his snow car went over ihem like a bird. On Monday e^ning George came in from Feversham in a little less than half an hour, a distance of eleven miles. The car is cosy Tmd comfortable to ride in. George has put a lot of money and time on his invention and we trust his brightest hopes will be realized. Rev. Mr. Eaton also has a road auto which he has been trying out but has not reached the perfection acquir- ed by George. Rev. Eaton goes to his appointment at Inistioge each Sunday with his "bus." ۥ @ § @ @ T. L.
