These same tires will cover thou Sands of Miles. On the other hand a pair of boots costing the same Price will no last More than three or four months if considerable walking is done.

Large employers in various Cana Dian cities have shown an inclination to consider the personal welfare of the wage earners. This attitude has been evident in various ways such of the encouragement of sports life and Accident insurance plans the construction of Model Homes for work ing men by big corporations and the establishment of co operative arrangements whereby the employees May secure special concessions.

Number of manufacturing concerns have encouraged the people on their payrolls to make use of the bicycle. In London ont., for instance a number of factory officials have permitted the display of bicycle sighs at entrances at pay wickets and other convenient spots to encourage their employees to ride wheels. It realized that Tho workers will Secura helpful exercise through the use bicycles they Are also positive that inc employees will be More punctual when they do not have to rely upon overtaxed trolley service.

Again in the eve ing. The workers Are enabled to to Home for a wholesome mid Day meal i and then return refreshed with the j exercise that they have secured through Riding their wheels. J the use of bicycles by wage earn ers is still further encouraged at Many factories by the erection of substantial parking Sheds in which the employees May place their wheels while they Are busily engaged with their daily occupations.
