Address and

_ Presen ta tion,

At the close of the annual congrega- tion meeting of the Thorburn (N. B.) Presbyterian Church, held on January 15th, Rev. and Mrs. D. MacVicar were the recipients of a beautiful parlor llamp the gift of the Ladies Aid. The presentation was maclc by Mrs. Owen Macdonald, following the accompany- lng address read by the President. Mrs. D. A. Johnst/one.

Rev. and Mr. Daniel MucViccr: Dear Mr. and Mrs. MacVicar: 1t ls fully two years since Y0" came among us and I think we can fcel justly proud of the results that have been achieved. This is a day of service. Service is a privilege and 1i we are all imbued with the spirit of CO-OPBIBUOXI and service we can con- fidently lcok forward to the attain- ment of even greater things.

The members of the Ladies Aid who have the work of the church very much at heart. would like to express in some tangible form the close co- operation for service which exists be- tween the Manse and this organiza- tion of the church, so we ask you to accept this gift.

Perhaps when facing solne perplex- ing problem the thought and spilli- of this moment may send a ray of chcer and encouragement to go fol"- ward in the work to which God has culled you.

Signed on hhhelf of the Ladies Aid.

MRS. D. A. JOIINSTONE. President

AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION

Bin-The Tourist Association did well in unanimously l commending a reorganization of the Automobile Association. The sooner this society commences to function the better it will be for the‘ Province. It will hove a. wide scope for usefulness. May I refer to a few of its necessitie and advantages-

To Our Tourists

It should have a systemutlzed dir- ectory of auto facilities in every part. of the Province: the location and extent of taxi BOOOIIIIIIOCIniIOII, and where this is insufllcient for emergencies a. list of available pri-

'val.e cars for substituted service to _ handle the overflow tramc.

Added

tn this there should be at the dispo- sal of the central ofllce. and of the

Tourist Association. a list o! private

cars, in the various communities,

available for conveyance of non-con- tributing bodies, who are the desir-

able guests of the Province. to their

places of entertainment, free of

charge.

Because of ‘their familiarity with the country. autcists. more than any oth-

er class, would b5. in a position to advise with the Tourist Association. as to the most desirable locations for rest. fishing. camping. boating and bathing. which would attract and give satisfaction to visitors, and of increasing the list oi’ private homes which would be available for a com- fortable accommodation of our sum- mer gucsts. ..

Our Highways ‘

None knows better than the auto driver what roads are good and which are bad. The experience of these should be utilized through its central offices. to advise with those who have the making of our roads. to bring about improvements. Many of our roads are a credit to the road- masters in charge. The advisory assistance of experienced autoists would to n. considerable extent influ- ence the authorities in bringing dis- credltable and troublesome highways up to the better standards. Working as a large body, supported by a mul- tiple of experience. such advice would be more effective than indi- vidual complaints.

Auto Laws u

Our Motor Vehicle Act is little bet- ter than an emergency law, passed in the days of limited knowledge of auto traffic. There ls urgent need for re- vision. If a. drunken or reckless driv- er crashes into another car. creating damage to property. endangering life or limb, the Act ensures to the Pro- vince the fine. or to the law the Denali-y. but. ii’ he is not owner of the car he drives. the owner of the ruined car is relegated to the com- mon law to recover his losses from a; driver who is perhaps not worth the price of the summons which brings him to the count.

The purpose of the law,is to pro- tect highway travel from outrage. tha‘. pedestrians and law abiding ve- hicle drivers may travel with a reas- onable degree of safety. This is the intent of all traffic laws. Rcgrcttab- ly. this is not. always the way they are interpreted. The latter is ob- served while the spirit of the Act is ruthlessly violated.

Briefly. to eliminate the reckless operator. and give security to the moderate and more careful. is the ob- jective. None are better qualiticd to properly amend tllc Act than the combined car owners. Over ninety per cent of these are in the class who are seeking for comfort and safety. This would be their aim in law am- endment. There would be no danger of the influence of the small frac- tion of traffic violators predominat-

sllould be so framed that even the half-wise traflic officer or justice could not misunderstand its direc- tions and requirements.

Taxation

Car owners have been taxed in this Province upon a highly liberal scale. They have not. seriously ob- jcctcri because of the ostensible pur- pose of improving our avenues of travel. Practically the entire cost of the "Inlprovcrl Highways" scheme has bccn saddlcd upon them. Addl-_ tloual to this wc have Civic corpor- ation taxes. The cost. of gas has been mounting upwards with in- creased gas tax by the Government, and a further civic tax upon its dls- tribution. There arc many places where these costs m auto owners are less. It is possible that. loathe pre- sent at. least, there is no prospect of relief from this taxation. An org-

anized association however could. at least be “On guard."

There are many other matters in which an Association could function for the benefit of the public. such as in ferrctlng out those who endanger public trafllc by law violation; the fixing of regulations in the case ‘of break-downs. collisions and disabili- ties: a conciliatory board of arbitra- tors to settle cases of unintentional collision or accident: collective in- surance; regulating routes and meth- ods of travel; securing of counsel to advise and protect its ember ‘lip and the travelling public from un- lawful impositlons. and the working out of’ those problonls of traffic which ere ever cropping up in con- nection with this wide-spread con- venience and service.

There are about 500 motor vehicl- cs owners in the Province. To make this Association a success a. very large membership is necesasry. There is influence and strength in numb- ers, and every car owner should. for his or her own interest, be u mam- bcr. A reasonable fee, if all should join. would give‘ a fair financial standing. Every driver in the Pro- vince should appreciate these great advantages and join heartily in the project. Pedestrians and those who do not own cars have also an inter- est, and should he eligible for mem- bsrshlp.
