days trip when the demand for the famous star brand of sole leather grew so as to require greater capacity instead of enlarging the brace bridge tannery to take core of the in creased business they came back to acton to rebuild and enlarge the tannery here which they had vacated ten years before that was nearly fifty years ago now the whole plant is located in acton just ft year ago the offices were moved here and in a further move for consoil- datlon the warehouse properties ore clos ed and storage and cut sole department are- all on the properties between main and maria streets well the work of enlarging and mod- vrnudng went on apace here ocorge wlllson of toronto had charge of this work for a time mr wlllson was a large finelooking man with hair just tlty and was quite popular in town but he had a taste of the city for several years and the work about the tanneries didnt appeal strongly to him though his openair experiences did him good physically he went back to toronto however and he and mr mcdonald formed the wellknown firm of mcdon ald di wlllson dealers in electric fix tures and supplies they prospered u they went into business just when elec tricity began to be adopted and the firm has expended and the name of mcdonald ac wlllson 1s now almost u household word throughout ontario weil our friend john mctirtul buj goodftaturecl john rami i rum urucc- bridge to

your exoavatlon over thot07 the men and teams went to work and spent nearly as long in filling in again what had just taken four or five days to exeavate well as the years passed mr mcgrall naturally felt that he would like to be ineos for himself to that end he became interested in a company which proposed to build a big concern at ot tawa he severed his connection with messrs beardmore co and went to the capital city but through some mis adventure the plans miscarried and after a month or so at ottawa the scheme was abandoned mr mcgrall then went to hastings to manage the tannory of the

scalp and hair in essential if the child is to have healthy and luxurious hair when she grows up says a notjti scalp specialist many udult cases of baldness and scalp troubles are undoubtedly due to child hood care or lack of it he continued if a childs scalp is normal to start with mothers who observe the following simple rules will do moot to keep it that way por shampooing use only the mild est soap andjjpfc water rinsing the soap out thoroughly before drying dont rub the childs head too firmly when sham pooing or drying because the hair fol- dllated rubbing may stimulate infection baby hair should be brushed not combed a comb may irritate the scalp the brush should be soft thick pliable und always scrupulously clean let the hair grow in its natural direc tion brushing it pompadour or in other unnatural ways often breaks it or dis courages growth artificial waving or curling is extreme ly damaginff to a childs hair many of the handmedown ideas re garding childrens hair are unfounded for instance cutting a small childs hair will not weaken the child mothers in terested in knowing whether a baby will grow up to be right or left handed can tell by the hair whorl or curl at the crown it is an interesting if peculiar fact that in righthanded people the whorl always curls ttthe right and if lefthanded to the left mammbris lttwmt majfjes abjoekt pta wftumolt ilidnwav courtesy jds emily post foremost authority in erica on manners has finally directed her attention to the manners of motor ists and courtesy on the highways in the latest edition of her famous volume etiquette shortly to be pub llshed in canada by byerson press mrs post has included a chapter on manners for motorists and her findings nnd comments closely parallel those empha sised by the try courtesy campaign conducted by tho ontario highways de partment mrs post addresses her remarks not- to really great drivers or very good ones who are fully aware of their own cxport- ncss but to the tens of thousands who in everincreasing numbers swarm out upon the streets and highways to have their lives saved time and again though thoy dont know it by the experts who step in between tho prim reaper and the bad driver and it we seriously think of the power says mrs post in all of these machines running loose on the highways and reoilxethftt no examination in driv ing courtesy is required of one applying for a license the wonder is not that there are accidents but that there are so few thetypa of driver writes mrs post who ought to be given a nice long time think it over in jail is the one who when the road la crowded pulls out of a solid line of oars to jokey or steal his way forward finding himself in sudden danger of a headon collision he makes a frantic effort to push his way bock into the line he has left possibly forcing some one off the aide of the rood or at least marring fenders or perhaps the news papers carry one- more story of a fatal ntotor cash caused by the bad manners of n driver who shoves to get aheaotor tries to beat the lights or crowds an other off the road never considering anybodys rights but his own in contrast to the dangerous speeding d iver mrs post next examines what she terms the annoying snail type of driver long known by other unflatter ing sobriquets because of his insistence upon crawling along in the centre of the roud behind him horns can blow and an other car nose up to the left of him he does not budge an inch or if he docs beware of his pet trick of swerving a little to the right and then back to the centre of the road or suddenly increas ing his speed to prevent the cor behind from passing although practically all cars arc now equipped with stop lights she pointer out drivers should remember that ih elight does not go onjuntll the brakes arc applied thereforewb hand signal should be given the moment the driver knows he intends to apply the brakes mvs post includes a list ot driving donls for city and country motoring dont blow your horn unnecessarily in a traffic line when it can do no good ani is merely annoying to others dont rush traffic lights or disregard stop algna remember- duoourtoiy to pedestrians can easily turn out to be manslaughter dont turn around and call an obstin ate driver names after you finally paai hlmltally doegnt teach him any thing or do you any good and may easi ly end in an accident dont almost run oyer eome one who is trying to signal a bus or styt car k little courtesy requires only a few seconds of tfflle and may easily prevent a rcrious accident or fatality
