In `*2: straight ght between Liberals and `Conservatives, under present condi-_ 'tions, he might make things very in- 'teresting, but with the B.

I BUTCHERS ;M.E:;"T$TAND!NG FEATURE That newspaper advertising is the It cheapest, most direct and most profit`- able means of reaching the larget .proportion of buyers within a given territory `was emphasized by T. Jz Ytmg, in charge of the merchandis- ing department of the Philadelphia Public Ledger, at a recent meeting- of the Associated Hardware `Dealers. Mr. Young likened the manufacturer using newspaper advertising to the farmer who carefully sows his seed [in each section of the-field so that the entire field may be covered and` [the maximum results obtained. 1 `that fairs might be held in the differ- lent towns or centres for alternate years, that where ,all the produce of two, if not three, of the different fairs could be loaded into_ one old- fashioned democrat, there does not seem to be sufficient reward for the labor expended by those who annual- ly go `to the trouble of making exhibits." ` U \ 1 A subscriber writes to ask if cer-I ltainbonds are a good investment.` Two Siorel Elizabeth Street Phone 473 Skirtings, 54 inches wide, fine all-wool Worsted materials, large assortment of stripes and plaids suitable for individual skirts.

Raikes is exceedingly Iileahle and popularwith all classes. He is: a pleasant and fluent speaker, and! is well versed` in the public questions; of the day. His. choice will be par-` ticularly popular with the soldiers. for on the outbreak of the war he promptly offered his services as al pmedical officer and served through to the end.

That contest was a win-the -war election and` hun- dreds of .pe,op1`e- voted`for- the Giov- ernment candid'at'e as a mandate to finish the big" job it had in hand. Since that time Mr. Drury hasbeen_ honored with the:Premi'ershi'p of this province and` has so discharged the duties of that high o"ice as to win - the respect of citizens of`a1`l`shades of political` opinion. The peopI'e of Simcoe County` are proud` of` Premier. Drury, and` Col`. Currie di'cT__not show his customary political'sagaci1:y' in his slighting-reference` -to him. ' q The United Farmers of North Sim-I l"coe are fqrtunate in their choice of a candidate. In various ways: Mr. Ross has shown his helpfulness in his lawn community. and the very lam-e ' and enthusiastic Oro delegation which `supported his nominatihn testified to . l.- One of the most vital problems iaffecti'ng the future well-being of ;the Dominion is that of immigration. [On the `quantity and quality of the `newcomers depends tola very great extent the future prosperity and jcharacter of Canada. We -know, from f1"equent'reports in the press, that] everything is not_ just . as it should be in regard to the regula- tions governing the entry of immi-I grants, and_ that very often great` hardship is inflicted on would-be set- tlers on arrival in this country. Pres- ident Beatty, of the C.P.R., who has %'spoken on many occasions of the necessity of .encouraging immigra-. 'tion. as a- means of converting the fnational `railways of Canada into a: .`paying" proposition, made a state-` a ment recently in Saskatooneion the` shortcomings of the present immi~i gration .policy. He. ad ocated the free entry of settlers elected by l |ithe standing he has among the peo- ple where' he is heat known, His short address was direct and on a dis- .tinctl'yA high plane. Willingness to serve the. community is an essential to the best citizenship and such ser- ivice was one note stressed -by Mr. iRoss. No one who knows. him will - idoubt his sincerity. It is not unnat- iural that he should beinterestexl in av public affairs, seeing that his father, _,the late Ex-Warden James Ross, was ;for a score of years actively engaged I in municipal a`airs-'-yand it is safe to 'say that no more esteemed member lhas sat in the county council. Mr. Ross has, too, what appears to be a much desired qualication in a Iifarmers candidate---- he is'actively [engaged in farming and has known no other occupation all his life. If the U.F.O. carry the `enthusiasm of `the convention through the cam- .,paign, the- well-known organizing [ability "and political ingenuity of the .=gallant Colonel will hardly suffice to [pull him through. A H In the opinion of The Alliston Her- ald, the letter from the Deputy Min- ister of Railways and Canals, read by iGordon Wilson at the C--ksto\vn meeting, dissipates all the hopes of` scores` of communities in the prov-l Eince that were to be served by the [projects from which Federal approv- [al was withdrawn. Isn't The Herald lrather jumping at conclusions? Mr. Wilson did not say these highwaysi would not be built -because they`: could not share in the Dominion ap- propriation, though. it appears some received that impression. What Mr. ~'Wilson contended was that owing to the excessive construction costs on ,certain roads participating in the ` Federal grants, the appropriation was `eaten up so rapidly that the money` "voted was not nearly `sufficient to . `apply on the roads designated by the [Ontario Dept. of Highways and that ]as a result the work contemplated *on many of the roads must necessar- |ily be delayed, whereas it might have , gone ahead had the road monies been "more judiciously expended. This, however, should not dissipate all hopes, nor is it likely to do so. If the Hon. Peter_ Smith will supply Mr. Biggs with enough money, the roads ` designated will doubtless be complet- - 2 bed in due time.
