"Slim" Maccracken. who passed
through Salem Frinday in the in

said. "The way you park your

me." When asked what way he
found to be the most common he
said that paralled to the curb was
by far the most common. With
Salem's wide streets parking par

is in Winnipeg to begin a year's
study of Canadian agricultural
methods, with a view to creating
on her return to the British Isles,
a movement to western Canada of
English farm girls.
"Girls on the farms in all parts
of England are intensely interest

outlet for their energies and
would migrate to .the dominion in
large numbers if only encourag

Many, of these young women,
she declared had sufficient funds
to start farms of their, own and
would prove a valuable asset to
the development of the western

flexible than any previous
cord tiie. The Integral Bead
construction not only makes tlie
carcass more flexible but makes it
possible to use a flexible tread.
This means an easier-riding tire,
while the ruggedness of the tread
means a longer-wearing tire.
If you hare never used Kellys,
now is a good time to begin. If
you already know Kell vs. take our
word for it that the Kelly FtexibU
