Motorists are warned that the card{ rying of spotlights is contrary to law. Instructions have been issued by the; department to rigidly enforce this: regulation and motor owners will be. wise if they remove the spotlights} before being summoned. The Act‘ reads: "It. shall be unlawful to carry -on any motor vehicle on a highway, any lamp or other device, so that the Trays of light may be projected in dif-. ferent directions." If the depart- ment. wishes to enforce the “spot-4 light law,” well and good. we have, ‘no objection. But we would like to :see them enforce it on equal terms in both city and country. The Spot- 'zlight law has been on the Ontario statutes for a long time now, and if there is a place where the law is not enforced, it is in the cities, and more especially in holier than thou Toronto. Travelling along the Ham- ilton Highway, the writer has seen hundreds of motorists in and around Toronto, not only having these spot- lights on their cars, but using them ;as well. What makes rural residents soreis to have to put up with a lot ‘of motor law enactments, enforced by a ProvincialGovernment official (who, by the way is but obeying in- structions), and then afterwards in a trip to the city, see these same laws broken continually right in the shadow of the Provincial Gov- mt buildings. } .. .-\ . -~_., A 1'1.‘("é'?lt isue of the Hamilton “Spectator contains the following: ”Mr. and Mrs. J.

There was an im- mense crowd and excellent speeches. A couple of weeks go we stated in these columns that all animals were prohibited from running at large on the Provincial Highway. Since then we learn that the fines to be imposed are $5.00 each for horses, $3.00 for cows and $1.00 for all other animals. costs to be added in each case. This should be sufficient warning to all. and as the Provincial Government has instructed all their Highway of- ficials to prosecute in every case it. is more than likely that the law Will be fully enforced. The annual garden party of the Glenelg Centre. Baptist Church. held on “7 alter Ewing’s lawn last Thursâ€" day night was an enjoyable affair, but owing to the coolness of the ev- ening. the crowd was not as large as it would have been otherwise. A good supper, good program and the i'rati-‘rnizing of the people of the neighborhood made a very enjoyable evening for those present. Mr. Geo. Binnie was chairman, and besides musical and literary program, a good address was given by the pastor, the Rev. Mr. Cameron. Short speeches were also given by the chairman, Mr. Thomas H.

The lot Opposite the Rectory has been chosen and the choice is a good one. The lot is suf- ficiently large to have a nice little park in connection, and this, if well kept, will be a pleasure spot for the citizens and an ornament to the town. It is close enough to be con- venient and far enough from the main street to be away from the bustle of business.
