The Eng Govrnment Sweeps Country -:-::. .- This week an important business change takes place in the town of Barrie. This is the taking over by The Examiner of the printing and publishing business 01' The Barrie Advance, the publication of which will be discontinued. 11-....- L:...... I\l'I\ ll .... vdrv `D:Hu nnnl hovyinu ulhn have cuscontinuea. Some time ago Messrs. Pitts and Davies, who have been the owners of The Advance since August 1938. approached The Examiner with a proposal to sell their business, as they had in view another undertaking which would take them away from Barrie. In due course an agreement was completed by which the business of the two offices is combined. This takes effect on the 30th inst. Thursday, March 28. will be the last issue of The Advance, which will leave the town with one news- paper, The Barrie Examiner. The number of towns and cities where only one newspaper is published has steadily grown: in recent years. This applies 1.0 iboth dailies and Weeklies. 'I`wenty years ago. every city in Ontario had two or more newspapers. Ottawa and Toronto are the only cities nnw supporting more than one. Toronto once had three morning and three afternoon papers; now one morningandv two -afternoon. In nearly every town there were two or more weeklies, each political party deeming it. necessary to have an organ". It was found that politics did not help a publisher very greatly in paying his bills. As a result these party organs" have pretty wel-l dis- appeared. Increasing costs have made many problems for the weekly puiblishers and as a result amalgamation followed amalgamation until there -are in this province only about a dozen towns with more than one newspaper. Those in this district are Orillia, Bracebriclgc. Meaford and Newmarket. l\ll'/mlnlitv nrnnnif ihn rlnilv newsnaners also has been heavy. The Newmarket. Mortality among the daily newspapers most recent one to pass out was the Regina Daily Star. which closed an existence of twelve years on February 3. Hon. R. B. Bennett. is said to have spent $250,000 to establish this- paper and to have sunk nearly 71 halt!-million in the venture. On ceasing publication the Regina Star had this to say with respect to daily newspapers: In Hamilton with a population of over 150.000. only one daily paper has been published for the past five years. Windsor. with a population of a'bout 100.000. has had but one for many years; Lonclon, with a population of over 70.000 has but one paper. In Quebec the cities of Montreal and Quebec alone have more than one English daily. In New Brunswick. the city of St. John with a population of close to 50.000. has `but one paper and no city in` that province has more than one. In Nova Scotia, Halifax alone has two papers; in Manitoba. Winnipeg is the only city with two papers; in-Alberta. Calgary and Edmonton are the only cities with two papers. and. in British Columbia, only Vancouver and Vic- toria have two papers." r~.,.e..ainnq nmnnrv th. rlnil-v nress are not confined to Canada. _ ,,, A LARGE LITTER TINY TOWNS!-IIP-The appeal of hn rn\u`-rlmnnl for an in(-ro:1s.td Casualties among the daily press In the United States. ninety-eight daily papers have ceased pub- lication wit.hin the past. thirty months. more than half of which dropped out. in the year 1939. Several of them had been in con- tinuous publication for over a hundred years. Prior to 1914 when The Examiner and The Saturday Morn- ing amalgama`n-d. there were four ,weekly papers in Barrie. Re- moval of the Ga /.et.te "plant. to Midland reduced the number to two-- to the advantage of `both readers and advertisers, because of the improved service made possible. A comparison of the local papers then and now shows that The Examiner is giving its read- ers over three times as `much news and features as any of the four papers did prior to 1914. and an immensely superior advertising service. Its circulation. too, is nearly three times as great. '1`he high standing of The Examiner among the town week- lies of Canada is shown tby the fact. that it has in its possession the first Mason Trophy. awarded `by the Canadian Weekly News- papers Association for "the best all-round weekly" in its mem- bership. The Examiner won this three years and was the first winner of the new trophy which replaced the one awarded to us. 1n the other` years of this competition The Examiner has never been lower than third place. Aiming to keep step with progress and to meet the require- ments of a live and growing community. our staff has been in- ere-aserl from time to time and frequent additions have been made M our plant. giving us equipment equal to all the demands upon it. with a good allowance for growth. -Obviously such develop- ment and enlarged service would have been impossible with four papers struggling to eke out an existence on the amount of busi- ness available in the limited field. - -- 1 ..- :.. ii-.. r;..i,: ....;n. I||:\ r1`iu:.I nf Th!` Ad- available in the limited neiu. Left alone in the Iield. -with the d`isa-ppearance of The vanee. we reali7.e that. there rests upon us a greater responsibility than ever to render faithful and efficient service to the town of Barrie and the much wider area in which our newspaper circu- lates. It will `be the aim of the publishers and staff to give a fair. accurate and adequate coverage of the news of our con- st.itueney. The Examiner will continue to be an independent news- paper having ever be`fnre it what it considers to be the best in- te1`usts of the fine town and district it serves. The publishers of The Examiner sincerely appreciate the g":-neruus measure of support given by subscribers. advertisers and uther cu.~:tumers and the kindly assistance of correspondents and utliers whn have helped members of the staff in providing the news from week to week. 1.. .....-.-hue-am: Thu l\d`v;ince business.
