Endurance Test For 248 Cars Australian Roads

From H. King Wood

Sydney, July 9.

At the moment 248 cars, mainly in the top price bracket and worth more than half million, are in the process of battering themselves to pieces in a 9,600-mile trial around Australia.

The trial, now the biggest thing of its kind in the world, has created extraordinary interest in this country. Its fame, too, is apparently spreading abroad, for this year a team from New Zealand is getting an extra cheer as it passes through cities, towns and villages,

Importance Of Moral And Spiritual Values In Education

"Where the principles of a school are based on moral and spiritual values, then the education the child receives will be a more enduring and valuable contribution to his adult life," said the senior Education officer and Chief Inspector of Schools, Mr W. J. Dyer this morning.

He was addressing the pupils and staff of the Ling Kwong College at its fourth annual graduation ceremony at the Chinese YMCA. The College is a private verna- cular co-educational school.
