IkyouW Sj* I fI)TUST three more weeks and all the schools will have broken up for the long (■Kt H holidays. Children will have six weeks on their hands to lead a care-free life ■ LI in the open air. We hear all sorts of arguments put forward regarding the " H I R' necessity of an outdoor life for the younger generation and it is up to all parents | H ‘ X can possibly do so to see that their children spend as much tune m the fresh | S Z / air as possible. Now, there is one good way of spending a day in the open air, OX 7 / // and that is by taking a motor-car ride to some favoured seaside resort or some // picnic-spot in the country. The children love >t-and so do the grown-ups, for / that matter. There is, of course, the added attraction of spinning along m your a • X. own car. Just think of the variety of places that there arc to be visited, and the » rsAL—v~> X '/ joy of exploring new roads and discovering new picnic-grounds. 1 here aie plenty of places n X« ;:Z to go to in and around Wellington—the various bays. Plimmerton, Paekakanki, Titahi Bay, 1 Mangaroa, Akatarawa, the Rimutakas, and a host of other places, each one more interesting '"xt - / than the other. Summer-time is pleasure-time, and for that reason, we should make the most I £ ' of every available minute. And the best way is to travel around in a car. Most people Zr<\, have gone f or picnic-parties in a car at some time or other, and have all wanted to repeat ~ l the experience. Why not, then, buy a car of your own, and drive yourself and your family Mr—i and friends out into the open country? Motor-cars are not very expensive these days; and x even if they do seem to be too much that way, there is a wide selection of used cars on the market which can V&fZZj/Ky'' be bought on the most reasonable terms and at most reasonable prices. Some are out-and-out bargains. It is V ' economical to buy one of these cars, for the upkeep is not great, and, if properly cared for, it can be made to last for years. 'Z' Not only will it be of advantage for pleasure, but it may also be used for business purposes—in this case it is really more /I o f a necessity than a luxury. In addition, the lady members of a family often find that a car is a great help when they are X out shopping. It is much better to be able to put all one’s parcels oil.the floor of a car for safe carriage than to have to carry them personally. The advantages of a car arc too numerous to mention. Ask any owner of one, and he will tell you just how useful one can be. Think it over, and decide to buy one before it is too late.
