MnstetaMi-ojiQ -7 Pi *A SIMPLE little thing," declared Prof. W. B. Cartmel, of tBe XTL University of Montreal, sitting in tie book-strewn study of his Westmount home where, for some months past, since his retirement from the Northern Electric Company, as mathematical expert, he has worked out the highly complicated mathematical formulas by which he attempts to disprove the Einstein theory of the non-existence of ether and the constant speed of light. Addressing the American Physical Society in New York re* cently, he took his audience by surprise when he showed them that the slight difference observed between the velocity of light m the two beams reflected upon the interferometer in the original telescope experiment many years ago was not an error as Einstein maintains, but was just what should be expected, and indicates J an "ether drift" and proves Newton's third law correct and jj logical. "In any case," says the genial professor with a merry s twinkle in his eyes, "they have got to 'show mo' by better proof 3 than they have yet brought".

THE PROPER CARE OF YOUR AUTOMOBILE Sport Model Tops TnyHILE they are made of a dif- '» ferent material and are hot coated with a varnish, as are the tops of closed cars, a ceifain amount of inspection and care is necessary to the upkeep of the sport model top. This style of top is made from a gray, tan or khaki coloured fabric called tea' or Bur-bank cloth. It usually consists of two layers of closely woven cloth which are fastened together with rubber cement. When this material is new it will resist weather. After the Car has been in service for a year or two, however, the top material sometimes loses, ~» 'i Next; "Care cf Fenderi its waterproof qualities and leaks develop. When this occurs it is useless tc try to waterproof the material with a coating of varnish, lacquer or any other kind of surface finish. They are not suited to material of this type, and are liable to cause it to stiffen, pucker, or become discolored. The proper compound to use on sports model tops to renew their waterproof qualities is one which will sink into the eloth and waterproof tlu dbres without changing the color or appearance of the material in any way. _ COLBORNE BRANCH East Northumberland Women's Institute 1936--1937 "Jfor Pome txub (Eomtirg" Meetings Held Second Tuesday of Each Month, at 2.30 p.m. Sharp Everybody Welcome OPENING ODE A goodly thing it is to meet In friendship's circle bright, Where nothing stains the pleasure Nor dims the radiant light. No unkind word our lips shall pass, No envy sour the mind; But each shall seek the common weal, The good of all mankind. INSTITUTE CREED Keep us, O Lord, from pettiness; let us be large in thought, in word and deed, let us be done with fault finding and leave off self seeking; may we put away all pretence and meet each other face to face, without self pity and without prejudice. May we never be hasty in judgment and always generous. Teach us to put into action our better impulses, straightforward and .unafraid, let us take time for all things; make us grow calm, serene, and gentle. Grant that we may realize that it is the little things that create differences, that in the big things we are one, and may we strive to touch and know the great woman's heart common to us all, and O Lord, let us not forget to be kind. Our Aim: The greatest good to the greatest number. OFFICERS Hon. President--Mrs. Wm. Colling. President--Mrs. Gordon Metcalf. 1st Vice-Pres.--Mrs. W. A. Moore. 2nd Vice-Pres.--Mrs. R. J. Armstrong.
