LECTURE TO MOTORISTS
At the invitation of Mr. O. A. Speers, who is touring the world io explain to motorists the manufacture and functioning of spark-plugs, several hundred motorists and their friends attended a lecture delivered last evening at Hope Gibbons' Buildings, Dixon Street. Kinema films amply explained the various processes of manufacture, notably the mining, of sillimanite, the material exclusively used in the manufacture of “Champion" spark plug insulators. This mineral is mined in the lofty mountains of Nevada and Niobe, packed to the railhead over most difficult country. A number of European motor race pictures were also shown. The lectures, which are of great educational value, will be continued every evening this week. Admission is free, and motorists are particularly invited.
