Feder- The gentleman whose criticisms have been touched upon here thought that the merchants should invite a compari- son and discussion of prices and qualities with customers The merchants think" so. too, and are ready and anxious to take the quest-ion up with any and every customer in this way. The whole foundation of the Kiwanis Club "Buy at Home" campaign is the belief of the Kiwanis and of the merchants concerned that they can give the public better value than the peddlers or the outside stores, and they are ready at any time to give proof of this to customers. _ It should be remembered that unless this particular in- dustry lawmalntalned. the people of the town not only lose .a service and accommodation of the greatest value. but the impoverishment of such an industry actually means ar additional burden on the ordinary ratepayer, if the towr is to be maintained. From the selfish standpoint alone the average citizen owes it to himself to uphold this pir- ticular industry. It would pay him to do so. even at some extra cost, to himself in his daily purchases. But the firm' concerned do not ask nor require any such sacrifice Rather, they are out to prove that they may be suppcrted with actual economy to the customer. In future issues. i»‘ is intended to give actual price comparisons showing that the best values may be secured from the business men of Tlmmlns and district. in which this was not the case. The matter of paint being mentioned a concrete example was given him. In Tim- mins there are two houses standing side by side. In the past eight years one of these houses has been painted twice while the other has been painted three times. and to-day i more in need of new paint than its neighbour. The twin was made that the so-called “cheap" paint used reall' cost several times the price of the standard articie {hit was at first sight looked upon as the more expensixe.

While the disease was of very mild type there did not seem to be much to be gained by allowing it to assume epidemic form. More attention given to quarantine has curbed the disease and suggests the lesson that if all the doctors insist on proper quaran- tine and all the people observe the necessary regulations there will be no epidemics and it is to be hoped in the gen- eral interests that public support is given to this policy for the sake of the public health and safety. The spread of scarlet fever in the town appears to be abating, the sanitary inspector being authority for the :tatement that while quarantine is being lifted in many cases. practically no new cases are developing.

The banks and other big financial institutions for years made large pro- fits, immense profits. Any lass facing them recently has been turned over to the stafls to bear by way of wage cuts and unemployment. It is a great scheme for a mad world. but hardly fitting for a sensible. democratic people. There are two main arguments against the only logical remedy that appears to be at hand. One is that to place a fair share of the burden of the cost of government upon those who benefit the most would have a tendency to fright- en capital away. On the other hand what about the rest of the people? Is no one afraid of frightening them? The otter argument is that everything is contingent upon sup- ply and demand. The answer to this is that the demand is growing to uncurbable proportions for a more equitable a more sensible working of a system that has broken all the miles of fairness and good sense and landed the country in its present plight where the men with the most money are the most helpless. They can do nothingâ€"except try ‘r make a little more money.
