The passing of the long drawn-out winter and the opening of the roads to motor traffic would partly {account for the great number bought within a short period. Another factor is the inereasing be- lief that a car is a business necessity rather than a lunury. The distinguished appearance and excellent service of the Chevrolet keeps it well up in £avour. Although slightly higher in price its claim to be the greatest car value for the money would seem to be sustained by the fact that Mrs A. J. Gardiner of Lagle River has just bought her see- ond Chevrolet from Durance Bro ! has picked the Chevrolet as his fav- ourite, while H. A. Wilson, who has just put a Chevrolet Touring in his livery 'business, evidently pins his faith to the SOU und construction of this car for heavy service. new Durant cars has made a str ong impression on popular favour. The first shipment is practically ail dig- posed of, and a second shipment is on its way to Dryden. Among those who have been seen dr riving the Durant are Alex Hutchison, BE. A. Klose, Tom Proudfoot, A. Bridgews ater and A. M. Taylor. The . Durant ig certainly pleasant to lock upon, and when its lexcellent qualities ave better known, will undoubtedly gain in favour.

Milling of Quibell spent a few days in town last week, and spoke very optimistically of conditions round jhis home town. "There were many {reasons why Quibell was long in get- ting on its feet," he said. "There was the lack of good roads to begin with. And it takes time to clear the land and 'get the stumps out. And maybe the scarcity of capital had a little to do with it too. But now that we've got a start the soil is good enough to re- pay us for all the trouble. The growth i ihe ,is wonderful, the clover especially is something to marvel at. I'm going to isee about getling some bees in there, f° [and thag should be good for producticn as well as good for the beekeeper. "It takes elie from the life of 'a man and wife to get into a ne country and wrest a home from a The younger genération will never know what it cost their fathers and 'mothers to get things. in shape for "their children. But' every generation has its own problems, and greater op- | por tunities sometimes bring greater {responsibilities. We are very hopeful faround Quibell, and our settlement is now coming along fine, Many new ttlers are coming into the district from the west as well as from the old country, and are taking up locations." Mr Millings also commented on the 'postal service along the government line, and made some tentative arran- gements that may lead to ~improve- ment in this connection.
