This policy has worked very satisfacâ€" torily and has enabled a great many families to become reâ€"established. "It is not a case of simply increasing Canadian â€" agricultural production," states Mr. Black. "This movement actually represents the efforts of many people to solve for themselves in a practical way the urgent economic problem which faces them. They argue that on farm they can be at least sure of sustenance and at the same time have a better chance to conserve what limited funds they may have acâ€" quired during long years of industrial employment." Since then many of them have been put on part time and others have beâ€" come unemployed, and with the prosâ€" pects of their life savings being graduâ€" ally depleted, have decided to return to the land where they can be assured, at least, of a roof over their heads and enough food to eat.

It has conâ€" sistently maintained high standard of quality in its products and has adâ€" vertised steadily in good times and bad, using newspapers from coast to coast, yvear in and year out. The original plant turned out a very small variety of biscuits, Today over 500 lines are marketed. From that point the business has never looked back until today Christie Biscuits are known round the world. The original stcre in Toronto has been replaced by three factoriesâ€"one ocâ€" cupying nearly a whole downtcwn block in Toronts:, the second Toronto factory occupying many thousands of square feet of ficor space and the thirdâ€"the new Winnipeg plantâ€"is acknowledged the finest factory on the continent.

In 1871 and again in 1874 larger preâ€" mises were necessary and it was sympâ€" tomatic of the sales energy Pehind the crganization that the first transâ€"Canâ€" ada train had a Christie representative on board. The biscuits sold from this small bakery became popular with a limited clientele and the business began to progress, Four years later Brown and Mathers retired and the business was handled by young William Christie. Mr. Brown, however, reâ€"entered the company in 1861 and the name, Chrisâ€" tie, Brown and Company Limited was adopted. in Toronto to make biscuits. They had with them as assistant salesman. Wilâ€" liam Christie, who was destined to beâ€" come a partner and eventually play an important part in Canada‘s biscuit making industry. The simple history of Christie, Brown and Compiany as told by the active veteran president is this. The business began in 1849 when two young men, James Mathers and Alexander Brown formed a partnership in a small store In his interview Mr. Edmonds touchâ€" ed on many interesting psints. Mr. Edmonds, who can recall perâ€" sonally much of the rise of the Christie Brown organization, told how the gians biscuit comptany was started in a small store on Yonge Strest, Toronto, by two men with a working capital of prcbably not more than $500. Today the busiâ€" ness they founded is capitalized at millions of dollars and is the largest industry of its type in Canada. It has two manufacturing plants in the East, anctherâ€"the million dollar Winnipeg plant opened last weekâ€"in the West and thirteen distributing branches from Halifax to Vancouver. sistent advertising. In his talk to the newspapers Mr. Edmonds made this clear. It is interesting to note that not only does the Christie, Brown and Comâ€" pay, Limited, carry on a steady camâ€" paign of advertising, but they also make good cheice of the mediums used so that the best results may be obtained. Accordingly, they have a gocd contract this year for advertising in The Adâ€" vanceâ€"and so will be able to maintain and extend their business in this North Land. A romance of business that should be of inspiration to every small storeâ€" keeper was told last Friday to newsâ€" papermen by C. E. Edmonds, president of Christie, Brown and Compuny, Limited, who is completing his fiftyâ€" sixth year of service with the company.

THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO The next regular meeting of the Timmins town council is to be held on Monday, March l4tzh commencing at 4 p.m. The New Liskeard Speaker last week says:â€""Notwithstanding that the Forâ€" ecign Enlistment Act sets out fines and imprisonment for any officer who acâ€" cepts "any commission or engagement in the military or naval services of any foreign state at war" with any country friendly to Canada, it is unâ€" derstood that officers of the Canadian Royal Air Forcse have tendered their services to China. This matter brought a discussion in the House of Commons last Friday. But in the meantime Preâ€" mier Bennett announced that three of the air force men who had gone to asâ€" sist China were unable to get emproyâ€" ment and were stranded. It looks as though large number of Canadian airmen will lose their jobs if they be not otherwise punished. Col. Ralson, former Minister of Defence, is putting up a strong plea for these men who are likely to be dismissed. It is strange that officers did not know that it would be highly improper for them to offer their services to either China or Japan under the circumstances." On several recent occasions The Adâ€" vance has taken oppostunity to urge all town people to patronize local business people, if for no other than selfish reaâ€" sons. The town itself depends upon its local business men for its very exâ€" istence. Without the local enterprises of one kind or another there could be no town. and unless these businesses can be maintained there remains no way of maintaining the town. It is generally held now that purchases of any kind can be made s cheaply here as anywhere else when all costs and circumstances are considered. The Englehart ccrrespondent of The New Liskeard Speaker last week refers to this question as follows:â€" "It is to be hoped that ctizens will endeavour where possible to buy in town even if they arse obliged to pay little more for the merchants who are the largest tax payers depend chiecfâ€" ly on their patronage, etc. There is no doubt but that all towns in the North are having their financial troubles but it is up to each and every one of us to. do our share to keep things going. The deyiwession cannot last for ever although times, we learn amongst the settlers and those out of work, are very bad. Those that are mare fortunate than the octher fellow probably can help out.
