This simple statement is a voluminous coramentary on our world to-day if we have but eyes to see between the lines and read the real message there. Not many years ago itwould have-been utterly impossible for any peer to admit that he could not ~ afford the'robes of stite for such an event even if it had been so. To-day the situa- tion has changed."

Perhaps the example of admitting freely one's inability to conform to society's tra- ditional approach from one so highly plac- ed as a Lord may filter down to the busi- ness world with a new lift for the young man who has still his way to make ahead of him. England especially needs young - men of enterprise and intelligence regard- less of their economic station to bring her through the crisis at hand.

The rounds of show- ers for the bride, expensive wedding gifts and modern homes have become heart- aches for many young couples struggling to put up a brave front before the world. Other young people have lost their values in a welter of outright materialism. Things mean more than people; possessions more than a few good friends. Br Can we get off the merry-go-round?

The fact should be an, .in- centive to advertisers of all--kinds, whether a retail selling drygood, jew- ellery, clothes, shoes, stoves, or auto- . mobiles for probably no_industry is .more aware of the value of advertis- ing and particularly newspaper ad- vertising thgn the automotive indus- try of Ca and United States. An analysis, however, shows that the cost per car of these advertising efforts is a relatively small sum. The big money comes down to quite small amounts when divided by the number of new cars sold each year in Canada and the United States. -- something over five million in 1951, THe magazine Advertising Age has . beeni doing some digging into the per unit costs of automobile advertising. It found 'that Chevrolet advertising; placed bythe manufacturers in major media last year, amounted to only. $6.40 a car. Ford spent $6.28 per car sold and Plymouth $8.09 a car. When one considers the prices at which these automobiles are sold: to- day, it will be seen that the per unit cost of the advertising which sells the huge volume of business: in the indus- try is' insignificant. True, in the to- tal, it'seems like a lot of money. But when 'it is brought down to a basis .. of so much per car, it verifies the argument that the best and cheapest way to build up business is by con- sistent and distinctive advertising. ~The Lindsay Watchman-Warder.

Growers may obtain a copy of the list at offices of the Agri- cultural Representatives from Seed Branch of the Department. The Crops Branch points out that - as most growers are now busy grad- ing their supplies, now is the time for them to arrange for their future Research. of the Department indi- cates that changed buying habits of the consumer are being reflected in the price of table potatoes. "Hand to mouth" buying in small quantities re- sulting in increased packing and hand- ling costs. "Gone is the time when it was the custom for families to lay in the win- ter's supply in bulk," says the Crops Branch. "Present practice of the ur- | tities--is affecting the marketing of potatoes. Cash and carry buying, to- gether with lack of storage space in the home has tended to reduce the size of individual purchases." ~ This tendency to buy in small quan- tities has increased the amount of pre- packaging and handling. > result, with present costs of As : il services; it costs more to | sell in small lots which inevitably in- creases the cost ta_the consumer. "The consumer is paying for his dtermina- tion to do "hand to mouth" buying," says the Department. That there may be some swing away from the present "small package" 'purchase this year is indicated by the fact that the Department reports that this fall there has been some tendency to lay in the winter's supply in bulk. Some have bought direct from re- liable growers on local markets, others have ordered by phone and many oth- ers have taken the opportunity to drive in the country and call direct at the grower's farm--returning with a few bags of potatoes in the trunk of their cars. At any rate, Ontario potatoes this year, are practically free of blight, in fact, they are well ma- tured, of good size, and better than average eating quality. ; quirements for. potatoes are exactly the same in Ontario as in other Prov- ineés across Canada, therefore, locally grown potatoes are a "best buy." o-oo» Wins Fifth at Royal K.
