A classification of owners of cars in the Province of Ontario shows that out of the total of 181,978 passenger cars registered in 1921 over oneâ€"third were owned by farmers. Tradesmen constituted the second largest owning class, with over 23,000 cars to their credit, with merchants in third place, owning over 16,000 cars.

Bowry. The name sedan for a closed car comes from the sedan chair of Queen Anne‘s time, which was developed at Sedan in northern France. The word limousine comes from the province of Limousin, France. It first applied to a cloak and then to a car, because it acted as a cloak to the passengers, alâ€" though the driver‘s seat, while not covered, was not inclésed. The broughâ€" am, also an inclosed car similar to the coach, was named after Lord Brougâ€" ham, an Enzlishman. Coupe comes from the French and means to cut. Coupe usually refers to a oneâ€"seated closed car and runabout or roadster to a oneâ€"seated open car. Then there is the more highâ€"toned landaulet style, which gets its name from Landau, Germany, where it was first made, and the cabriole, which comes from a French word meaning to caper or dance. ‘ It is quite likely there will be very few radical changes in automobile styles for some time to come. same capacity as the sedan, which has two doors on each side and is necesâ€" sarily heavier in weight.

When Mr. Bell, who relates his experiences in Country Life, left his cattle ranch to hurt for elephants his mail was forâ€" warded to him properly until a new district commissioner came. The new commissioner did not know that Mr. Bell was not at his ranch; so one day when one of the old Wanyamweszi careâ€" takers made his biâ€"weekly report the commissioner told him casualy to take some letters to his master. f In landing, too, birds can achieve what no machine has ever done.

Now let me go unto my oneâ€"time foe And by my treatment of him clearly The old man, says Mr. Bell, took the letters without a word.

Being a thrifty old soul,â€"he was then sixtyâ€"five years oldâ€"he had a large stock of dreid smoked beef from cows that had died. His preparations, therefore, were soon made. An inveterate snuff taker, he had only to grind up a good quantity of tobaceo, and he was ready for the journey. Nothing that m can compare with mechanism which birds. When a gull starts on its flight it lifts its wings, thus trapping a vxume of air beneath its body.

Then, when it has reached a sufficient height, the guil can glide for enormous distances withâ€" out any effort. Gulls, in particular, are far abead of any aeroplane or glider.

If not,â€"if they support the Einstein theory,â€"we may have to believe that there is a fourth dimension, which the human mind can no more comprehend than it can compreher«d infinity. We know that infinity must be a fact, though we cannot grasp the idea. Why not also this incomprehensible fact in the mechanism of the universe? Alâ€" though accepting Einstein‘s theory will require us to surrender our faith in the absolute truth of the geometry that we have learned, and in Newton‘s law of gravitation, the variations are too small to be important or even to be discerned by any but the most learned mathematicians. Astroromers everywhere are reâ€" joicing that the expeditions that obâ€" served the total ecciipse of the sun on September 21 were completely sucâ€" cessful. The sky was cloudless, and the photographic apparatus worked perfectly. . The American, the Canâ€" adian and one Australian expedition set up their instruments at Woolal in Australia; the British, the Dutch and the Germans on Christmas Island. All the expeditions observed the eclipse when the sun was high in the heavens, and where the totality lasted longest; that is, nearly five minutes.
