CARRIERS COLUMN
BY w. Horace Carter

Three more Tabor streets have
been hardsurfaced as our town
continues its Improvement pro-
gram started several years ago.
Plans are in mind for paving sew
eral other streets within the next
year and perhaps the time is
rapidly approaching when all our
city streets will have top on
them.
But even then, we will have a
long way to go. At the moment,
Tabor city is in a bad way for
improved drainage, Curbing, sew
age and additional sidewalks. All
these things cost money and that's
what the town has the least Of.
But with a little progress here
and there each year. we can look
forward to the future with high
hopes.
Streets tina; are being paved
now. as has been the case for sew
eyal of the past year, are being
done comparatively. That is, the
town is splitting the cost with the
property owners. This makes the
mcagcr town funds 60 further and
isn't a. expensive proposition for
the property owners. Certainly it
improves the property much more
than what cost is involved
In our opinion. there's nothing

that the appearance Of a Ford Car
leaves very little to be desired. 1t is
at home" wherever it goes and it
goes everywhere.
But uhat about Ford quality?
Does it too match the fine car? Is the
sheet metal of the body panels as
thick? Is the finish as good? How
about the trim and things like that?
Well, as far as we can determine, the
sheet metal is identical in thickness
in practically all instances. AS to
finish - we believe Ford's bdked-on
enamel has no equal in any car. Ford
upholstery fabrics and trim are less
costly, but they're less delicate, too,
and if anything, more durable.
HotD then Is It possible to gioe you
this fine car at half the fine car priceP
Part of the answer lies in Ford
manufacturing sldlls and knowledge
as evidenced by the V-8 engine. Part
of It comes from the ever increasing
numbers of cars Ford produces and
the economies they make possible.
And, part of It comes from Fords
willingness to give greater values
than might be expected in cars SELL

TORONTO. May 12.-Another

The latest tiff developed yes
terday over the Canadian sign

back on last years Chicago

up in the courts-just as the
Dick Huffman case did two
years ago.
Coach Carl Voyles of the Ham
ilton Tiger-Cats of the Eastern
Big Four started the rumpus
when he announced Saturday
that the 25-year old Blanda had
signed with his club for the 1858
season.
"1e can't do it," George Halas,
owner-coach of the Bears, said in
Chicago. "The boy has a reserve
option clause in his contract that
gives us choice Of his services for
the following season. And that
means 1883"
Voyles disputed this at Hamil-

home at Vero Beach, Fla.
