12 THE NEW TANNER THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1998 Does one inch make a difference? QUESTION: I have a 1997 Ford Expedition with 17inch all-terrain tires. I have four 16 inch summer radials in the garage. Would the one inch difference in the tires hurt any- thing? This vehicle was also available with 16 inch tires. ANSWER: Many things would be affected by changing tire size, such as: 1. Speedometer calibration. Your speedometer would read too fast. 2. Transmission shift point would feel strange. 3. Fuel economy would be affected. All of this could be corrected by changing the driven gear on the vehicle speed sensor in the transmission. The real issue here is cost. Although the speedo gear is approximately $12 (plus labor), 16 inch rims list for $442 EACH. It would be much more economical to buy four 17 inch summer tires than to buy four 16 inch rims and have to change your speedo gears \ spring and fall. Sell the 16 inch tires and put the money towards new 17 inch tires. J I1O.D.E. REPORT Eleven ladies met at Royal Café for a delicious dinner at 6:45 p.m. the one time they are always on time. We can- not thank the folks at the Café enough; they treated us like queens. The food is out of this world and we always have enough enough food left over to take home for next day's lunch. To the folks at the Royal we say a double thank you. Our bazaar lady Ernestine had a re- ply back from the church reusing it for our November bazaar. Costs have cer- tainly gone up and we will have to dis- cuss this further before we answer. But we thank them for their reply. A thank you note was received from Don Ryder for the message sent on the death of his sister Marguerite. Our next meeting is PICNIC TIME at the home of Regent Helen, the time 6 p.m. Come on out ladies and enjoy the last meeting until September and add a few more calories to your waist line. The date to remember is June 2™ at 6 p.m. Wes (ATR this Friday Live iss i) VAN HALEN performed by 5150 "aia BRYAN & DAN By DOT NORTON SCREENHOUSES UNLIMITED Affordable Screen House Kits Have a BUG FREE Summer Many sizes & shapes to fit on your deck Demo kits available at reduced pricing 1-800-922-4760 Oakville, Ont. www.screen-house.com R Ge ) this Saturday Li inf ay Tony "Wild T" Springer G \ ve ae Caution Jam | Cowadelic Blues z BLUES & ROOTS | Eric Burdon "Sauce Boss" Lil' Ed and The Blues Imperials 876-2582 HWY 25, 1 mile north of the 401, MILTON www.livediner.com LEGION News BRANCH @ No. 197 By MIKE MANUEL This past week our branch held its annual elections and the results are as follows: President --- Gary Munday Past President -- Carl Fisker 1* Vice President -- George O'Donnell 24 Vice President -- Frank Spielvogel Secretary -- Joyce Buchannon Treasurer - Gord McCutcheon Committee -- George Forest, Christine Rogers, Junior Rowsell, Jim Davies, Mike Manuel.

Person- ally speaking, I can recall on many occasions intervening and correcting my own chil- dren when our family cat Whitey has had his tail pulled, or has been kicked or mauled or otherwise abused by them. Others, undoubt- edly, can relate instances of their own when a family cat or dog, has received unde- served rough treatment. Such abuse and disregard for the life of smaller crea- tures is not, I would contend, as isolated in its application and implications as some would narrowly conclude. $1249.00 $1710.00 & Devon Much to the rae: the re- spect or lack of it that we ac- $1049.00 cord to God's smallest crea- tures inevitably carries over Includes into our relations with, atti- First Class Hotels, tudes to and treatment of Most Meals, other people.
