" l roads safer. Paris police believe in being courteous to visiting motorists, says the Ontario Safety League. A driver who parks for a short time in a "forbidden‘" zone may find a pamphlet on his windshield when he returns, in five different languages. It says, ‘"The Police Departâ€" ment would be grateful to you if you would kindly respect the traffic and parking regulations . . . and they wish you a pleasant stay." Inside the leaflet are diagrammed highway code tips. Here‘s a comment on courtesy. ‘"When you‘re right, you can afford to be courteous. When you‘re wrong, you‘ve got to be." +++ 2. Maryland has become the first state to adopt a safety standard aimed at strengthening school bus structures, which _ the National Transportation Safety Board has criticized as breaking apart into sharp edges that act like "cookie Air fares across the Atlantic have probably never been so confusing. Conflicting stories are being given out at present as to what air fares will cost next year, but for the prime route between Canada and Britain, for instance, the fare has been settled. Effective February 1, aircarriers is offering return flights between Toronto and three main British cities â€" London, Manchester and Glasgow â€" for $207. From Montreal, the fare is $189. These flights are on regularly scheduled jets, including the 747, and passengers are offered the same level of comfort and service as other travellers. To make it even more attractive for families, children between the ages of two and 11 travel at half fare. However, with these bargain fares, there are a few conditions that must be met. To take advantage of the low rate, bookings must be made and paid for at least three months in advance. Minimum stay in Britain must be 22 days, and maximum is 45 days, but research has shown that more than 70 percent of Canadians holidaying in Britain would spend at least three weeks there. And, as the fare is available for a stay from 22 days to 45 days, For example, if February 1 is the day the passenger wants to fly to Britain, he must book and pay for his ticket by November 1. And if he cancels his flight before he goes, he will forfeit 25 percent of the fare. Lowâ€"cost insurance is available to protect against cancellation for medical reasons.

One of the standard requirements will be for all structurai joints in school buses to have at least 60 per cent of the tensile strength of the thinnest part being joined.

A surprising finding of research at Cornell, reported by the Ontario Safety League, is that the risk of whiplash neck injury is greater in slowerâ€"speed car impacts, because in more sever crashes the seat tends to break loose allowing the upper body to move back with the head. it permits the passenger, not the airline or _ some organizer, to decide when he wants to return. The great advantage of these new low fares is that lowâ€"cost air travel is now available with minimum fuss or effort to the man in the street. There are no membership qualifications to meet, no club or organizer‘s fees to pay and whether a passenger is 18 or 80, there is an abâ€" solute guarantee that his seat is assured. There is no doubt that the charter market will remain very healthy in Canada, again particularly to Britain. And, it also seems likely that on a straight fare for fare basis, charters will be cheaper than the scheduled airlines‘ new lookâ€"ahead, bookâ€"ahead fares. A simple comparison will give the clear picture: Next year, it will cost about $190 for nine months of the year to fly on a jet charter between Toronto : and London and return. On a regular BOAC flight, during the same period it will cost $207. However, if a family of two adults and two children under 12 fly, the cost by charter will be 4 x $190, or $760. By scheduled jet, with the new fares offering half price for children, the cost will be 2 x $207 plus 2 x $104, or $622. As yet, not all airlines had filed their new transatlantic air fares with the Canadian government â€" a necessary move before they can offer them to the public. But BOAC and Air Canada, with which it operates in pool across the Atlantic to Britain, have taken the initiative. +++ +++ For more than a quarter of a centurey, Canada Savings Bonds have played a meaningful part in the financial affairs of thousands of employees.
