BRAT HWAITE HARDWARE An inspection of the 224 also veals some other interesting safetv features, In addition to allâ€"steel construction with safetv glass right around, there is an adjustable, tiltâ€" ing' driver’s seat, which will: be apâ€" preciated by the short driver. It will be noted that the new Pontiac has a greater steering responsive- ness and acceleration, while a. con- venient cowl type of emergencv brake lever has been nlace'l directly in front of the driver’s left arm. Fenders are deeply crowned in smlit nearâ€"shape with horizontal windsplit bead. A long rubberâ€"cov- ered running-board joins the front. but not the rear, fender with a new rib design. Head-lamps are. longer and sleeker. hood side grille. com- prising four narrow- chromed bars, extends from the silver streak on radiator to rear of hood. while belt moulding from radiator to rear win- do-w is simply" treated with slight Gunny AllhAlvu. The new models maintain Pontiac's reputation for lively road manners, beautgr and ruggedness, as well as economy of operation. They have allâ€"silent, allâ€"steel Turretâ€"Top bodies by Fisher with unistee‘l construction. Acclaimed by the engineers as “the finest car in the lowâ€"oriced field.” the “224” has many features which will be of particular interest to the car user. With public sentiment fav. oring a different and safe type of door handle. the new Pontiac fea- tures a rather distinctive but sub- stantial. turnedâ€"in handle. The famâ€" ous “silver streak" sweeping from ’bum‘per to cowl is narrower this year, consisting: of a wide centre bar dividing,r six narrow bars. The new models are more streamlined and possess a beauty and dash which are quite arresting from any angle. Greater slope of the rear end com.- pletes a fine srpeedvline silhouette, while the slopins: back of the Wind'â€" shield ‘by seven de rees is an im. portant safety fea re. engineers point out. Briefly this means that the driver, without straining, can see spotlights a1.d* high objects, .usually out of the line of. vision. , nnA .Jnn ’a gets no “an”. its engine has digfi‘facé‘ffient of 224 cubic inches. - - ‘ LAL, 11-..;Jnnv- NEW PONTIAOHAS MANY FINE ATRATCTIVE FEATURES New and thrilling in design and performance, the “Pontiac 224” for 1937 is now on view at Rolling Motor - Sal-es, Richmoncl Hill. This new Six; gets its name from the fact that! ‘ - ‘ ‘:___x...m...nnb n4? 9‘11" WE DELIVER l Pontiac engineers have succeeded lii. boosting rigidi‘x‘ to three times its form-er value by incorporating what is known as a Doiuble-Drop Cantilever frame at the base of the car. This feature also reduces bod}r quiver on all roads except smooth inaverments where quiver is not a lfactor. Another technical feature. 1 described as the Hotchkiss Drive. re- duces skiiddine‘ to a minimui... engi- neers state. They also stress the im- portance of the new Bevel gear rear ‘axle: the 19-1 Ratio Steering Gear. lperfeoted hydraulic brakes rugged ‘one-niece cylinder and| crankcase. heavv forged steel counterbalanced 'cranksh'aft. combination nressure and solash feeds and an ingeniously-de- ‘sligned manifolding system. The interior of the “224" has a luxurious appearance. the color scheme and appointments blending in an annealing harmony. Upholstoring iis done in mohair or wool cloth, while a modernistic beading design sewed' into the door trim panels in- cites attention to details. Window mouldings are in fine. California Claro burled walnut finish. Hard- ware, includi..g door handles, window lift cranks and dome light. are pleas- ingly artistic. Those who atmreciate symmetry and beauty of design will be interested in the striking arrange- ment of the instruments against a crowned walnut finish metal nanel. This nanel background. which extends the width of the body, is trimmed with chrome moulding. At one side the instruments are set flush. being grouped together under glass bound with narrow chrome moulding. On the right is the glove locker doom and in the centre are ignition switch, throttle. and light switch. Arm; reets, front and‘ rear. are luxuriouislv paddu ed and a thick carpet in- the. rear commartment harmonizes with the upholsvterv. Neatlv-rilbber thick, rub- ber matting in the. front commletes an arresting“ interior.

Other avtcpssories include radio mn- trolq of fr'ansluce'nt cream tenitp‘ electric olnclr and chrome-spoked> stem-mg wheel. The new Pontiac is offered in three body twes viz.. coach with trunk. and] sedan with trunk, with smvare tire located in bottom of trunk com-p9”â€" ment; and smort coupe with two opera seats and spare tire located in rear compartment. It is pointed out that, when the onera seats ar-a folded up. there is Inn-gave space of an-Droxim‘atelv 22 cubic feet behind the regular seat. In nre‘sen‘tinq the Ponfi'w “224”. engineers declare that they have sought to inmrnorate all principles which make for sunerior all-round nerfm'mance and nroduce a car which is renlete with features which the car user wants. Probably the most widely acquain- ted Tories in the Province of On- tario passed away quite suddenly in the Bellverville General Hospital on Tuesday, Dec. 8th, in the person of William G. Clrysdale, who had» been identified with the Conservative 0r. ganization in Ontario since 1905. As secretary of the Conservative Asso- ciation of Ontario he had spent the past three weeks in Belleville as- sisting in the East Has-tings by election campaign. He was posseSS_ ed of a very pleasing personality and a most remarkable faculty for re- membering names and faces. He was born in Peterboro 61 years ago, was a member of the Church of Engâ€" land, an Orangeman and a Mason. He was a past county master of the Orange Lodge of Essex county. Pontiac engineer: also direct at- tention to the anti-.~oueak material placed between all sheet metal and parts to which it is attached. All sheet metal. it is stated. is thorough- 1v rustmroofcd before being- finished. Front liCense tag- is mount-ed on The bumner with the rear bracket an in- tegrral hart of the new and afiractâ€" ivelwdesia‘ned‘ tail-lamn. As an added convenience. th¢a “224” has an de- signed so that the rear door window m'av be lowered out of siwht “WP facilitating the nassino' of parcels through the window and lending a breezv atmosphere in hot weather. Looking over the bodies, one finds that they are on 117-inch wheelbase and are two inches wider across the front seat and windshield with 11/; inches more seat width in the rear. Attrntinn has been, paid to public desire for greater trunk space, the trunks on the new Pontiac being 25% larger. A very convenient tool trav is to be found just inside the trunk and out of the way of the baggage. From the comnletely flat floor to the roof there are 314 inches more headroom, while the front floor has been lowered. making the hack of the front seat 11/» inches hif'her. At the same time. the rear floor has been lowered: 2 inches with reference to the rear seat, affording a more rest.qu ' nasition. r _ _ The mechanicallv-minded will be interested in the completely new ovâ€" erhead valve type sixâ€"cylinder engine which retains sound engineering principles of the vast with a host of new features which have survived gruellimg tests. Engineers state that this engine was selected for its relyiâ€" abilitw, ease of starting- and econ- omy. downward sweep. It will be noted, also, that window and door contours are new. Many motorists will welâ€" come the addition of a. narrow drip moulding. which protects both front and rear windows in wet weather. Welde neatly just above the door and window openings, this moulding would) escape notice if it were not pointed out. WILLIAM G. CLYSDALE THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO The minister, Rev. E. E.

MAN’S BICYCLE, C.C.M., reason- Everyone knows about diseases that at one time caused great loss of life and that have been brought under control in the last thirty or forty years as a. result of modern public health methods. Ty- phoid fever is one illustration. Twenty- flve or thirty years ago. it, was not uncommon for cities to have death rates from typhoid ranging as high as 60 or 75 deaths out of every 100.000 living persons: toâ€"day. it is almost a. disgrace for a. city to have a. death rate of more than one or two per 100.000. and in many cities rates for typhoid for the last year were less than one. Diphtheria. the killer of children a. few years ago. is torday becoming a. rare disease. Many communities have not had a death or even a. case of diphtheria in several years. thanks to modern methods of immunization against this diSeasel -W§’cllow fevér is another plague of a. generation or_ two ago when whole cities were quarantmed because of_it._ WV..-“ Smallpox. that scourge and terror of our forefathers. is now seldom heard of.
