School Orchestra

In many of our school social ac-
Invites, and the other activities of
the community, has rendered a most
important and valuable service. They
are constantly preparing many new
numbers, which are used on various
occasions. They have a regular prac-
tice one evening of every week, under
the direction of Mr.. w. F. East. Much
praise is due their director for the
proficiency with which the orchestra
performs, and for the fact that all of
his work of musical instruction is
given the boys free of charge.
School Activities
Most important of all our extra
school activities has been the organi-
cation of a live, growing Parent
Teachers Association. This Associa-
ton was organized in the spring of
1924, and since that time has taken
an active interest in preparing inter
esting educational programs for
Parent-Teachers' Association Meet
ings, Of value to both parents and
teachers, in raising funds for school
purposes and in making preparations
for securing a new school building,
which is now badly needed. Their
regular meeting night is the second
Tuesday of each month and the meet
ings are largely attended by the
patrons and members.

RACE On ICE.

"Bus transportation in Finland IS
growing very rapidly though it is still
in its earliest stages and is necessari-
ly having a good effect upon the auto
mobile situation as bus transportation
makes it absolutely necessary that the
country have more and more good
roads, SO far the buses operate only
in the country, having terminals in
the city and are causing the railroads
Of Finland, which are very good, con-
siderable concern.
FINLAND has not yet constructed an
automobile race course, however, in
the winter the dealers association con-
ducts a high-sDeed race on the ice
along the shore Of the Gulf Of Fin
land near HelsingfOrs. In these races
the automobiles often attain a speed

The demand for Moon cars in Fin

NATIONAL VIEWPOINT.

"The A.A.A. clubs have the national
viewpoint on traffic control because
they represent the national car owner
and must consider his safety and wei
fare. Sectionalism is rapidly vanish
ing as a consequence. What the Mich
igan A.A.A. clubs have done can BE-
done in California, in Florida or in
Maine.
This new plan Of safety through
abolition of confusion is merely the
process Of building by starting with
foundations. Heretofore there has
been too much effort directed toward
the impossible. Nationwide abolition
of confusing motor laws is not pos
sible until an automobilist can drive
through his own state without finding
it necessary 10 conduct himself differ

should be only a short step between
that and nationwide uniformity. State

experience has been that such com
promises are universal. The people
Of Maine will find that they prefer.

SPLENDID BASIS.

"The Cleveland Automobile Club
performed a similar service in soly-
ing the traffic problem Of that city,
while many other A.A.A. clubs
throughout the country are engaged IN
similar work. thus eliminating local
differences and paving the way Tor
national uniformity.
at is to be expected that the Hoov-
er conference will find the work that
has been done by the clubs a splendid
basis on which to work.
What this means is that the organ
lied motorist himself is evolving his
own traffic code, that he will popu'

"The way TO get nationwide uni
formity in motor laws and regulations
is to start with statewide uniform
laws first. II this policy is followed,
it should be not long before motorists
can feel at home, and safe, in any
traffic they happen TO find themselves.
When all the states adopt their own
traffic codes it will be found that
they are virtually uniform with each

BUILD GOOD ROADS.

The present roads IN Finland are
made of crushed stone and came into
being with the advent Of the automo-
bile in 1905. being patterned after the
roads Of Sweden. Finland's largest
and most important automobile club Is
the FinlandS Automobile Klubb Of
Helsingfors. which is the principal city
with a population Of $4,000. This
club is very exclusive, numbering
among its members, the most influen-
tial business men Of the city. Much
of the success Of the roads program
and other progressive projects IS due
to the Finland's Automobile Klubb
whose members are very active in bet
tering the automobile situation in Fin
land. The bankers of Finland are
what you call shy when it comes 10
financing automobile merchants unless
the merchant be C member Of the
strong Dealers Association Of Fin
land. This dealers association has
done much TO improve conditions
among its members and the increasing
number Of modern showrooms and ga
RACES, one Of which holds 400 cars, Is
evidence Of that fact.
The number Of cars imported into
Finland in 1925 is nearly twice the
number imported in 1924 though the
import tax on cars shipped into Fin
land from the United States. England,
France and Italy is only S.75 per cent
while the import tax on cars from all
other countries is 20 per cent, the
great difference being due to the fact
that Finland has a trade agreement
with the four nations mentioned above.
The retail price of gasoline in Fin
land is 80 cents per gallon and the
price Of oil is 4j cents per quart and
both prices are considered excessive
by the people Of Finland.

pie of Finland have come to realize
more and more the real value in the
American car and yearly are buying
more American cars. Moon car sales
during that time have been far be-
yOnd the expectations of my company
and what is more the outlook for the
future of the Moon car in Finland is
very encouraging indeed.
Another encouraging angle TO the
automobile situation in Finland is the
fact that the Liberal wing of the gov
eminent is in control, thus insuring
the carrying on of number of pro-
gressiye and beneficial projects for the
country. one Of which is the roads pro-
gram. Much Of Finland is mountain

TRAFFIC MOVE
IS BEGUN

Motordom's most serioJs ailment,
namely, the diversity Of traffic regu-
lations, is yielding to treatment and
there are definite indications that
movement toward traffic uniformity on
a national scale has set in.
This far-reaching announcement to
the country's ear owners came from
national headquarters of the Ameri-
can Automobile Association today. 1t
was made under the signature Of Thom-
as p. Henry. president of the national
motoring body. who has completed
survey Of what the organized motor
lists are doing TO evolve their own ma
tional traffic code.
~The agreement reached at Grand
RAPIDS for an ordinance for Michi-

garded ms the launching Of the uni
formity movement in earnest. What
Michigan has done will eventually be
done by every state in the union, and

situation in Finland, Borg said:
There is a great potential market
for American automobile in Finland.
due to the fact that Finland as
young republic is undergoing POO
gressive development the like Of which
the country has never known. This
is particularly true with the coun-
try's two great basic industries mining
and the lumber business, both OF
which give employment to thousands
Of men and neither Of which ever ex-
periences more than the very minimum
amount Of labor trouble. The rye,
oats and barley crops this season are
unusually large so that the farmers
have more money in their hands than
they had in many years. The pull
paper industry Is also an important
one in Finland necessitating the use
Of many motor trucks in Transporting
the spruce logs from which the paper
is made. Such favorable conditions
make for prosperity and prosperity in
cludes among its requisites the auto
mobile. At the present time there are
according 70 the latest figures avail

automobiles in Finland, fifty per cent
of which are small cheap cars, the
other fifty per cent being made W cf
