Radio broadcasting is expected to begin shortly in England. In order to avoid confusion the government profiting by the experience of oth- cr countries. has laid down definite requirements for the broadcasting stations.

Fact and Comment PORT BLGIN EDITOR WiANTS “HEADLIGHT” LAW BNFORCBD When is the law respecting head- ' lights on motor cars to be enforced? asks Editor Roy Wesley in The Port Elgin Times. The law distinctly states that all motor vehicles must carry minâ€"glaring headlights, and how many motorists are complying with the statutes in this respect? While motoring on Sunday night, out of six cars we passed between Port Elgin and Paisley one was il- illmillatt‘t'l with non-glare lights, while the other live were all lit up like the interior of Hades. So blind- im.r were the headlights that it was impossible for the driver or any of us occupying the local bus to keep our "lieepel's" on the road, and none of us are troubled with weak eyes; either. The driver simply had to stall his ear and let the bus with all the bright gleam speed by. To do otherwise was taking a chance of a eollision. Should a motorist park his ear on the street with his head- lights out or be caught travelling with his tail-light oti‘ duty. he is in- x'ariahly brought to task as an of- t'ender ot' the Motor Vehicles Act, and lined accordingly, while the greater menace of the road. the mo- torist with the glaring headlights, is allowed to get by without even as much as a reprimand. It. is little mutter that the ronsrieiitious m0- torist turns his snitl'er in the direc- tion of Denmark when he sees the laws of motordom being so loosely enforcml. Before the 1923 auto li- eense is granted it should be ascer- tained if the applicant has complied with the law in this respect, and if not. withhold his license until he has done so. SHELBY I180! um "I “EVER SINCE EVE" Shrliey Mason, the Fox star, who is always sure of a hearty welcome here, will be at the Veterans’. Star Theatre tomorrow and Saturday nights in “Ever Since Eve,” describ- ed as a “double-dealing romance.” The story is from the pen or Joseph Ernest Peat, and was originally pub- lished in Young’s Magazine under the title “Concerning Chichine.” If the play is as good as the original tale it should be excellent enter- tainment, for the plot has novelty and the character of the heroine is one carrying that form of appeal for which we are accustomed to 100k in pictures made by Miss Mason. An amateur archaeologist, Mr. W'. P. Ferguson, has found on Isle Royal in Lake Superior the remains of an ancient town. The ruins extend over an area two miles long and half a mile wide. The houses were appar- ently pits dug eight feet of more into the ground, protected by stone walls and covered with roofs of wood. Some are so large that they must have been communal dwellings. The inhabitants mined cOpper and used stone hammers to crush the rock. Mr. Ferguson thinks the settlement existed two thousand years ago, but it is impossible to be precise. Herbert Heyes, a sterling actor, who has appeared in several Fox photoplays, is Miss Mason’s leading man. and Howard M. Mitchell again figures as her director.

The Department has a big program for next year in this section of the province. The work next year will commence at Gordon's sideroad, the end of the fine piece of road now be- ing constructed, and will proceed south to Chatsworth. From there the work will continue for five miles down each of the Toronto and Guelph Provincial Highways. The t'thil'llCtiOll will not be exactly the same as that. now in progress just. outside the city limits. The Depart,- ment promises a first-class I‘Uad. This section of the Highway will be graded and a top ailressing of gravel will he used over the firm base which will be built. It is likely this work will be commenced as soon as it is practicable in the spring. , Yesterday Mr. Smith, accompan- ied by W. A. McLean, Deputy Min- ister of Highways in Ontario, and C. E. Bush, resident engineer on the Chatsworth-Brampton branch of the Provincial Highway, made a tour of inspection of the roads and road con- struction in progress on the Provin- ci'al Highways south of the city. Iheir visit is of considerable im- porance, as their recommendations for next year’s work will be based on their observations of this trip of inspection, says the Owen Sound Sun-Times. The construction of the highway for three and a halt miles south from the city limits to Gordon’s sideroad is progresing favorably. The new road is wide, well drained, has a very solid foundation and an excep- tionally fine surface. Already about two miles of this road has been con- structed and the work will go on as long as the fine weather lasts. It is hoped another mile will be complet- ed before winter flnally sets in and it is hoped the road will be ready for use about June 15 next. After vehicles have been travelling over the road for some time and it has finally become settled and some of the dust has blown away, a coat of tar will be applied and this will be covered with a protecting layer of stone chips which combined make one of the best known road surfaces. Tar will be applied at intervals un- til a perfectly hard, water-tight sur- face is formed, which will last for years. This portion of the road. which is under construction at the present time, is included in those roads under the control of the sub- urban area commission and as such. 20 per cent. of the cost is paid by the city, 20 per cent. by the county, and the remainder by the province. A large amount of work has been done this year and he and other Highways ofi'icials are just com- pleting a tour of inspection of roads in this district preparatory to mak- ing their recommendations to the Department of Public Highways.
