A fight of ten gift aero- planes was made irom the 'Leaside Aerodrome (North [Toronio) to Beamsville, where they were in- spected. The distance, sixty miles, was covered in less than an hour. His Excellency met some donors of ithe aeroplanes, namely, Jawes Carruthers, Montreal, who had pre sented four battlaplanes and three training machines; Sir William Hearst and the Hon. T. W. MoGarry, representing the Government of On- tario, who presented one battleplane and two training machines; Mayor Church, R. H. [Cameron and 'W. H. Shaw, representing Toronto's gift of ithree training machines; and Col. William Hamilton Merritt, P. Burns, Calgary, who presented a fattle- plane, and Mrs. William Hamilton Merritt, who, jcintly with her hus- band, gave two training machines, were unable to be present. The names of the training ma- chines were: "Queenston, 13th Oect., 1813"; "Lundy's Lane, 25th July, 1814"; "Montreal; "Winnipeg"; "Bdmonton"; "City of [Teronte"; "Macdonell, 13th Oclober, 1812"; 'Mercer, 3rd June, 1916"; "On- tario Neo. 1." and "Ontatic No. 2." These machines form part of a fleet of seventeen presented to the Bri- tish Government which have been ppomoted by the Canadian Awfation Fund and the value of donations has refiched $167,616, i It is natural that mishaps wil} wear fo machines of every character so that the Imperial Government at helr own expense replace all dam- aged machines and therefore give to the dohor a permanent association with the air service.

Fights between aeroplanes are prac- tised, but instead of bullets the Lewis guns are loaded with photo- grapale lms, the - films showing whether the jgans have been correct~ ly aimed or not.

In addition to supplying your needs, he tries in every way possible to avoid misunderstanding, mistakes and annoyances. merchandise, but service. For example : In Canada from coast to coast, there are approxi- mately 10,000 dealers who sell shoes. They sell thousands and thousands o pairs of shoes each day. It would be surprising if among these thousands of busi- ness transactions some mistakes or misunderstandings did not occur. Now then, when something goes wrong with your purchase, what is your attitude towards your dealer ?. In most cases, of course, the basis of adjustment is evident, and most dealers in Canada are quite ready to give prompt atten- tion to reasonable claims. That is the understanding on which When you see the A. H. M. trade mark on a shoe, mark an endorsement by the product of a highly organized industry, the shoe utmost in value, style ~ AMES H all business should be aone. If you buy a suit and a seam rips or any other little thing goes wrong, you do not ask or desire a new suit, but merely have the trouble repaired, Are you equally about Shoes ? Do you make demands on your shoe dealers which in comparison with other business would be unreasonable or excessive ? Do you fully realize that foot- wear has to stand the roughest treatment of any wearing apparel and is oftentimes subject to actual abuse and rough usage ? All reliable manufacturers stand fully behind their dealers in cases reasonable largest He sells you not only of reasonable claims arising from chance defects of workmanship and material. But if you force your dealer to make allowance for a claim that is unjust, he has to stand the loss, Appreciate the fact that your retail shoe dealer wants your trade, and that he wants to have you consider his store a pleasant and satisfactory place' to, shop. e wants to be just, even at financial Joss to himself. So the next time you have a complaint or a re-adjustment to bring to his attention, why not be sure that your claims are well founded and that what you ask him te do is reasonable, Be fair to your dealer. know that not only is that shoe concern a an but that ing hae ng represents the , you are i ' wearing ties which can be obtained at the price.
