IlKJIIKK PRICES INDICATED AS RESn.T OF SHOUT CHOP A considerable increase In the price of potatoes is indicated for later in the season, according to rejwrts to the Department, due to a distinct shortage in both Canadian and Ameri- can crops.

Osprey Resident Dies At Age of 93 Years COMMINITY THAT PROSPERS The community that prospers is al- ways the friendly community. To- 'ay the world is seeking out such places. There is so much of travail and harshness in the everyday affaii^ of life that friendlu havens beckon from afar. If you want Noorwood to be prosperous, to be known as a friendly spot, then you must be friendly too. It is a good message to carry with you â€" and it pays big dividends in happiness and prosperity. â€" Norwood Register. SERVICE Ari'RECIATEI) An Ontario editor died recently and many of the weekly newspapers com- mented on the fact that he was gone and some of them added that he had twice been mayor of his town. "We can," adds the Fergus News-Record, "think of many detter ways in which an editor can serve hi.s town than that." Come along old toj), with your "better ways". Speaking rrom ex- perience and from long association with municipal affairs the thought is that after all a fulfillment o£ the duties of the office of mayor is a ser\Mce of one's fellow citizens, who. while sometimes appearing unap- preciative, in the main, recognize honest and faithful effort, not only, it should be added, of mayors, but reeves, councillors and trustees. LLMITATION TO FUNDS The idea that the pubfic savings in Canada's banks is a fund that can be drawn upon for all and sundry pur- poses, including the flotation of new government loans, is exploded in the monthly commercial letter to the Can- adian Bank of Commerce, which de- clares there are limitaiion.s to iwe of these funds for such a pur- pose. This is made clear by an analysis of the deposits and loans of the Bank of Commerce which, it is pointed out, can be accepted as rejirosentalive of the relative figures for the whole banking system. The 42() niillioiio of total public deposits held by the Dank of Commerce on May 31st were distributed through about 1,100,000 accounts, which means an average balance of less than $400. If saving accounts alone were taken into consideration the average bal- ance was still lower, namely $327, while about 850,000 of these accounts were of $500 or less, There were only 112,000 accounts snowing bal- ances between $500 and 5,000 and 5,500 accounts of over $5,500. The larger balances, it should be noted more generally held by the manufact- uring and large trading concerns and roprcscnted in the main their surplus working funds to be u.-ed for buying raw material,; an<l i)ayir.),- wages once there is a further revival in the de- mand for goods. â€" Alliston Heraln. Osprey township lost one of its oldest citizens in the death of Mrs. D. C. McDonald at the great age ol 93 years. Death occurred at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Archie Mclnneu on Friday, October 6th, after an ex- tended illness of some months. The late Mrs. McDonald was a daughter of the late '.Mr. and Mrs. .Alexander McDonald, original pioneer^ of Csproy township, who came with their family of five children from Tiree, Scotland, and settled on the 4th Line of Osprey, on a farm one mile west of Mclntyre. Mrs. Mc- Donald was then seven years of agt and well remembered the six weeks spent in crossing the Atlantic Ocean in a sailing vessel, With the excep- tion of one year spent in the West .she had spent all her life on the farm whore she went as a bride. By per- severance and courageous hearts the dense forest was cleared and a home established for themselves and their family of eight children: Hector at Peace River, Alta., Neil at Singhamp- ton, Kate, (Mrs. John Taylor) Cay ley, .Mta., Flora (Mrs. Archie Mclnaes) Mclntyre, Donald at Brant, Alta., Sara (Mrs. Neil McLean) died at Brownlee, Sask., in 1906, Bella (Mrs. John Empey) Brandon, Man., Maggie (•Mrs. Lauchie Cameron) died at Glen Ewen, Man. With those of her fam- ily who survive and mourn her pass- ing are 28 grandchildren and 41 great grandchildren. The late Mrs. Mc- Donald lost her husband when she was 40 yeai>s of age and was left with her family of small children. The funeral took place on Monday October 9th to Mclntyre, with Rev. McPhorson in charge of the services The pallbearers were Messrs. Neil Archie and B. McLean, Hector and Neil McDonald and Newell Robert- son. The many beautiful flowers testify to the high e-steem in which the de- ceased was held. For the past year she has been bedfast, but bore hei suffering patiently and with Christ- ian fortitude. For some time she had been making her home with her daughter, Mrs. Archie Mclnnes, who was a devoted attendant at the bed- side of her mother. Those who attended the funeral from a distance were: \Miss Mary McArthur, Miss Margaret McArthur and Mr. Archie McArthur, Toronto; t"e" Mrs. C. Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. Fred -McDonald and Mrs. Well White, Coll- ingv.-ood; Mr. and Mrs. Neil McLean lind Mr. Roy McLean, Dornoch; Mr. and Mrs. Chris. Thompson, Flesher- ti)n; Mr. and Mr.-;. Bert Thompson, Mr. Neil Mclntyre and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Fisher, Portlaw. AN ACTUAL FACT NEGl.KJENT WITH CAR A decision of much interest to mot- orists was given in a liuiiiiiton court last week when a driver was ordered to pay $120 and costs for negligence. Last January, during a â- ."(nowstorm, he stopped his car on a main high- way in order to clear his windshield. Another motorist coming along ran into the rear of his car, saying he did not notice the red tail light. The plaintiff claimed that the defendant rciuUl have gone fifty yards furthe; to a service station to clear his wind- shield, and that he had no right to litop on the highway so as to andang- cr traffic. It is a decision that motorists shouhl respect. Too often drivers sjem to think they have a right to stop when and where they like. Even when there is an accident motorists do wrong to flock to the .scene and block the road ao badly that <t is almost impossible for any- body else to pass. Driving in a negligent manner is bad, but you can also p%rk on the road in a neg'ligent manner. â€" Hanover Post. A man aged 120 lost a leg. it couldn't have been much him anyway. Well use to Frog.s dont mind the sting of a bee and will wait l>eside a hive for thiii prey; r.hould they manage to get inside the hive, however, the bee? ipiickly embalm the '.nvader in wax. For the business men who appear to think the pu'blic does not need to be constantly reminded of who they are, where they are, and what they have to sell, the well-known story of what happened to a product call- etl Pyle's Pearline, will bear repeat- ing. In the early days of the cen- tury Pearline, a cleansing material was used by most of the housewives of the country. In 1904 the com- pany spent $500,000 in advertising. Then the advertising was greatly jui-tailed and about 1907 it was dis- continued altogether, as the com- pany thought the product was so v%fll known that no further adver- tising was necessary. Sales fell oft rapidly, but the company's owners persisteil in thoir non-advertising pol- icy until 1915, when the whole con- cern was sold for $12,000. Pearline was dead. Many other products whose names were household words a few years ago, are no longer sold because the manufacturers failed to keep up tlu'ir advertising and consequently thi' public forgot them. Busmess men should remember that new gen- erations of potential customers are coming along all the lime, and that those new buyei's must be sold on a product or a store, as their fathers and mothers were before them. The only time it is safe to stop advertis- ing is when one is ready to go out of business. PAPER MAKING TREES At the present time there are only a few species of trees that arc used for paper making, says the American Tree Association. We are finding new ways of utilizing additional spec- ies, but two-thirds of our pulp comes from -spruce, fir and hemlock. These three apccica supply practically all the raw materials from which the coarste paper used for newspapers is made. Pasteboard and coarse wrapp- ing and packing paper.i are made from pincx.-ood. Mo.«t of tho finer grade- .if paper that are u ;od for magazine? THil books are from poplar and othei softwood trees. â€" Boston Transcrirf. MAIJISTKATES RENEW REQUEST FOR AL'THORITY TO ORDER STRAPPINGS One of the matters dealt with at the meetings of the executive of the .Magistrates' Association of Ontario in Toronto recently, was a further memorializing to the Govt, relative tc corporal punishment for some offen- ders 21 years old and under. They feel that if, in their descre- tion, they had power to order strapp- ings, this would have a deterent ef- fect of crime and to a considerable extent reduce the populations of jails and other penal institutions. If this authority were granted them, the Magistrates would exercise it judic- iously and dn no sense would it be abused, it is asserted by the Magis- trates themselves. The principal of a school may ad- minister the strap for purposes ot discipline and very often it is con- ductive of good discipline, but Magis- trates have not this authority except jn sex cases or kindred offences. • In asking the press of the Province to designate their courts Magis- trates' Clourts rather than Police Courts, the Magistrates aim at cor- recting the impression, seemingly held by many that a Magistrate's Court is exclusively a court where matters related to policemen's activ- ities are dealt with. Mildmay barbers have decided that the prices they have been charging for their work are too low, and have agreed to boost hair-cutting prices to 25c. for adults. Shaves still remain at 10c.
