AUTOMOBILE TOURING

The end of the war and the relax
alton of wartime tension and high
productive effort lead to a desire to
see the country" again. One Of the
many hundreds of delightful trips is
over the fine new highway from the
Maine coast into the Canadian Prov

jestic forests and many views of un-
told grandeur. Mile after mile OF
fine hard road stretches between giant
pines, with no sign of human habi-
tation.
The man who tours must be free
from ignition trouble. His motor may
fail miles away from any service sta
ton. Battery ignition is apt to be
troublesome and uncertain, while the
magnetic is sturdy, always dependable
and gives off its fat, hot spark at all
speeds. The battery system should
be depended upon only for starting.
