HARDEN’S SHELL SERVICE STATION PROPRIETORS: HAROENS STORES, LTD. ALEXANDRA STREET, TE AWAMUTU. Phone 3355. Desire to announce that we have installed a BendixPeco Machine for re-grooving tread designs on smooth tyres. TREAD RENEWING MAKES TYRES “ NON-SKID.” In general, skid resistance and traction are definitely related to pressure per unit of area in contact with the ground and to overall flexibility of the complete tyre. The Bendix-Peco process of reproducing tread designs gives to the lyre a certain amount of flexibility, and therefore aids road adhesion, eliminating to a great extent skidding and side-sway. It is most important to have a tread design on the tyre for its whole life. This service is not expensive, costing 5s per tyre or 4s per tyre for complete sets. PERSONAL ATTENTION. PROMPT SERVICE. A High-grade Shell Product for Every Fuel or Lubrication Purpose always on hand.

It happened that the opposite door had ben left unlatched by the previous fare, and, stumbling against it, the inebriated one fell outside again. He picked himself up with difficulty and approached the driver. “That’s pretty quick work,” he said. ‘ How much do I owe you?” The newily-arrived coloured bully was seeking to impress the local boys with a sense of his prowess. ‘Tse a tough boy,” he started, “an’ I hails from a tough town.” “Jes’ about how tough is you, may I ast?” queried the home champion in misleadingly dulcet tones. “Well, whar I comes frum dey calls me ‘Wlid Bill.’” “Um huh?” said the other. “Well, after I gits th’ough wid you you’ll be knowed frum then on ex “Sweet William!”

FRANKNESS. Mother: Gracious, Johnie! How did you get such dirty hands? Johnie: Washing my face. HARD LUCK. “Anyway, Mary can’t complain. When she married old Moneybags she took him for better or wolrse.” "The truth, though, is that she married him hoping for the worst—but he got better.”
