In. other words the free notices , are to be a thing ' of the past as\ .far as -the Toronto dailies is concerned. In no other business, is as .much givenlfor. nothing as in the newspaper-business. An- nouncegnents `of meetings,_ and a hundred and one other items are published as a. news item that brings a reward in some measure to the person who has asked for the reading notice in the paper. , This sys- tem . has been in vogue as long as any liv- ing newspapeman can recollect. A person would never dream of going into a grocery store and asking for even an ounce of tea, or to _ a drygoods store for enough ribbon for a badge and not pay for it, but the newspaper is asked to give of`its space for all kinds of schemes as an item of news. Of course the newspaper owners are to_ blame. for the state of affairs. The owner of a paper that would lay down the rule that every notice of a meeting, or such item, must be paid for, would be a most unpopu- lar individual fora time at least; and if a -local opponentpwas still willing to give the free notices, his paper would get everything. going. Did it ever appeal to you, gentle reader, in this light?` Of course there must be exceptions when such a rule need not be observed, but. such cases would be rare. There `is a `vast. difference between an item lasting benet." That benefit,` or` boon, we may call it, is the establishment of the rural mail system `to, every portion of the Riding. This /-service ' was unknown before Mr. Boys came as the A representative to S. Simcoe.

It is to be_ hoped that the Worthy alderman who fathered the proposition has seen the matter in a broad-p er light and decided to let good enough alone. The Collingwood Bulletin in its last issue referred. to the comments of this page on the matterandyconcluded thus: "`We cannot say When- `the improvement was made, but it was only one day last Week when motoring through Barrie with a .party of friends" that We heard highly complimen- -tary comments on the beauty of the town parks.

Will the young ladies say to the young men We. won t' dance with you because you will not `go to the war. The call is as great now as ever. The second Canadian Contingent is now at `the ring line, who knows on this side of the atlantic what the casualty lists are`!

No report came before Council at the last session in regard to renewing .the fran- chise of `the Barrie, Orillia and\_Toroto elec- tric railway, for which A an extension of franchise was asked. The reason being that the promoters of_ the scheme have not satis- ed Council that they mean business. The next` concern asking: for a `similar franchise should be asked to put up the expenses in connection with any _vote of the people that may be required. ` Since wlriting the above, we notice` that the Collingwqod Bulle`tin has taken the mat- ter up, declaring that something must he done along similar lines in Collingwood. The Bulletin says the newspapers are quite prepared to do their part, but `thank you will not buy ink, paper and pay wages. The sooner the parties interested p in Collingwood,' Barrie, and all over the l country, for `that matter, get together. the % better for all concerned. It will be nothing * more than a square deal all round. of news ianltil what should be a paid reader. 1 And there is but one way to overcome the trouble, and that `lies with the newspaper -- owners not so much collectively, but in each locality where there is newspaper ' competi- tion.

Of all the schemes for the V helping of the soldier on the battle-eld or `in the hospitals, the Patriotic` Fund is the only one that looks after the dependants of the soldier that have been left at home. The fund is distributed in a business-like man- ner,. those requiring aid are given according to the several needs. The drain ' on the fund will grow larger, the call for assistance will become more pronounced. Therefore Barrie people who did so well when the call* went out for a then dimly realized cause, 'will. surely ' respond when the second call comes for what we know to be one of our _ ' greatest needs. 9 ` . e - . With the repairing of the market scales it would be a good move on the part_ of the Market -committee _to erect a building over the market scales, so that theywould be pro- tected. from the weather.- In winter time snow interferes with the proper working of the scales, at the same time being an incon- venience` to the man on the load and also to the market clerk.
