Must Answer Jt to Obtain a 1921 Motor License. The deadly glaring headlight peril will be practically eliminated in this province, according to officiafs of the Highway Department. Before any owner of a motor vehicle can secure a 1921 license he will be obliged to answer on thc application form whether or pot his vehicle is equipped with an approved non-glaring head- light device, and if so he must give the name of the device he is using. By this method the Motor Vehicle Department at the Parliament Buid- ings will have a record of every car owner in this province who has equipped his car for glare. elimina- tion. Since a great deal of investi- | gation and publicity has beengiyen | Department this year, it is most un- | likely that many motorists in Ontario 'will wish to admit to the government 'that they have not an approved de- vice on their car when applying for | next year's license, ! The effect of the new law will be virtually to prevent head-on motor car collisions in this province in the | future. | ---- | Gospel Song Service. | Moses, | santhemt The Annual Tea and Sale Was " Held on Saturday Afternoon. : blue 'and yellow beams from li s above the .pilat- the visitors as they entered Grant Hall on Saturday afternocr where' Q.W.C.A.} held their annual tea and sale; red, blue and yellow were the streamers and the pennants with '"Queen's" em- broidered upon 'them, and the same colors were on the tables where the pretty wares "were displayed for sale.
