Page 6 THE STRATFORD MIRROR Friday, November 22, 1946. LONDON DISPLAYS BICYCLE _ OF THE FUTURE The cyclist of the future will be able to freewheel up-hill on the United Kingdom designed bicycle now on view at the "Britain Can Make It" exhibition. This machine, which was specially built for display at the exhibition, enables the cyclist to: Tune in to a minature radio while he pedals; signal his approach by pressing an electric bell button; brake with a twist of the handle- bars; and operate built-in lights in the mudguard by pulling a switch. "Built-in" was one of the operative words in the designing of this streamlined bicycle. It applies to every part of the machine from the instrument panel to the toolbag and pump. A Yale-type anti-theft lock and concealed parking stand are part of the fittings. The most ienitekebte feature, however, is the unique com- bination of pedal and electric pow- er. The machine employs shaft pro- pulsion instead of a chain drive and a battery concealed in the frame- "work gives power to the cyclist go- ing up hill -- he can freewheel a thousand yards up a one in ten grad- ient. The bicycle is 15 per cent. lighter and will be appreciably cheaper than the present day machine. You weep, you moan, You tear your hair If but a single meal You're forced to prepare!

Now being made at five wartime shadow factories at the rate of five hourly, by next Feb- ruary they will be coming off the lines at the rate of one every 2% minutes. They are quickly erected, too--in Bristol the record has been achieved of erecting a house and connecting all services in 42% min- utes, These homes are as durable as brick and have passed all weather tests including being frozen, having steam pumped into them and being exposed to an 80-miles-per-hour gale produced by Beaufighter exhaust. Ain't It The Truth! An efficiency expert is a man who knows less about your business than you do and gets paid more for tell- ing you how to run it than you could possibly make out of it even if you ran it the right way instead of the way he told you. ee _ Peeeristretsssszessssesssesessesssesees esos. reese] Scott, Crane COMPANY INSURANCE - REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS PHONES -- 633 and 464W 110 ONTARIO STREET SSS SSSS ESSE FH HFSS HESS SOSH OE SEE OES OF ie : Southwestern ONTARIO accommodates nearly half of Canada's 2 ' the greatest demand in history, both for the new homes of Canada's | "4a where the cabinet-maker craftsman finds himself in the midst of teal polite li aad K tiny Perea, THE PROVINCE OF PROMISE...

C. Hopper, Economic Adviser, Agricul- tural Supplies Board, Dominion De- partment of Agriculture, in the Scientific Agriculture magazine. Most of the malnutrition in North America, in Europe, and in Asia, is due to poverty. Most, if not all, the wars between nations have been be- cause of real or imagined economic differences. The elimination of war and the fear of war rests In a very large measure on the elimination of want and malnutrition. One of the primary reasons why so many people in the world are chronically ill-fed is because it has not yet been profitable to bring under cultivation for food produc- 'tion the land areas of the world which are still undeveloped. Nor has it been sufficiently profitable to food producers to drain or irrigate suf- ficient additional land, to use better cultural methods on present crop land, to employ more and better machinery, and more commercial fertilizers to raise yields per acre. If and when the nations of the | world where malnutrition is come |mon, obtain the purchasing power 'necessary to make it possible for 'their people to pay for foods at a price that will encourage the open- ing up of new land for productive | purposes, and in increasing yields on present farm lands, the world's food producers will supply the food to satisfly the hunger and to eliminate malnutrition in these countries.
