Visit Charlottetown On 50,000 Mile Tour

Noteworthy visitors to Char- lottetown this week are Mr. and Mrs. Herbert A. Hover, of Pass- o-Grllle Beach, Florida, who cele- brated their golden wedding anni- versary four years ago and are now engaged in a 50.000 mile two- year automobile tour of the Un- ited States, Canada, Mexico, the West Indies and South America.

Mr. Hover is eighty-one years of age, Mrs. Hover a few years younger. Both are in vigorous health and In the last forty-two years, before starting 0n their present tour, travelled a million miles by automobile, visiting plac- tically every country in the world.

This is their first trip to the Moritlmes. They speak enthus- iastically about the development of this Province agriculturally, and also the courtesy shown them by all classes.

Msdo Moboring History

In the year 1908, the I-lovers made the first transcontinental automobile tour, from Mexico to Canada and from the Pacific to the Atlantic ocean, over made by man and wife.

"That trip," Mr. Hover recalls, ‘took many months. American pav- ed roads were then non-existent, and a garage or filling station was

The village blacksmith was your only mechanic; fabric tires and thin rubber tubes had to be repaired several times a day, and the dusty rutled roads were reminiscent of the 1849 rush to the gold fields of California. Cross cut saws, axes, shovels, crowbars and block and tackle were neces- sary equipment. We’ bought our gasoline from the grocer or hard- ware man In 5 gallon tins and car- ried extra cans of gasoline in the tonncau and in many cases had to have it shipped by train to the station we hoped to reach perhaps a month later.

. "The people would come miles and wait days for us to show up. The horses had t0 be unhookcd from wagons to keep from having a runaway wreck. In the unfen- ced sections the farmer, his wife and children took off across un- fenced fields, or, in the fenced fields, they would wave frantically to us to wait While they unhltch- ed the horses, and either held or tied them to some permanent ob- ject to keep them from dashing madly away,

"We cleaned spark plugs with gasoline at each day's end—some- times as many as a dozen, be- cause the dust was so thick and the progress s0 slow that spark plugs became too rooted to work.

Says Sneeze Is Natureﬁs Germ Killer

(By Norman Crlbbens, Canadian Press Staff Writer)

LONDON, Aug. l8 — (OP) —

Never back-fire s sneeze-let it

rip.

That is the advance of w-year-

old Dr. Octavla Lewln. formerly medical consultant to the Ilondon County Council, now one of Lon- d0n't oldest women doctors. All her life this kind, but pep- pery 01o lady has preached the virtues of nose hygiene and the science of the handkerchief.

"The sneeze is nature’s way of blasting away germs. yet every day you see silly 1601a stifling their sneezes in pocket handker- chiefs. That is not the way to use your handkerchief."

Dr. Lewln ls equally vehement about the pmper use of what she

wrongly. They breathe in through the nose and out again through the mouth.

"That is all wrong. It should be through tho nosa both ways. Napoleon had tho right ides. When his men were on the march they had to hold s leaf between their lips so that no whiff of air could get ln or out.

At Batterseus Barracks men still talk of the time when Dr. Lewln inspected the Queen's ca. dets for physical fitness.

Favors Inoss Collars

The purple-faced sergeant-ma- jor had Just shouted "Shun" to the cadets when Dr. Lewln stop- ped up to him and said: "Young man, your collar is too tight,"

"A tlsht collar ls a menace." she says. "It creates the need for more air than can be got through the nose, hence the mouth is forced open. You don't find the 81-931; people in the land wearing tight collars.”

P°i11lins to a picture of s group of Birthday Honors recipients, Dr. Lcwin said: “Look at cilia-men Who have done something. All have their mouths shut.

'But look at the gap!“ 1n 818589! you see walking along the “Teeth-W Der cent of these mouth breathers have enlarged 1011,11;
