D.T , representative, SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1981 PROTECTING THE TOWNSHIPS | The townships of Ontario pay out annual- ly to farmers thousands of dollars for sheep killed by dogs. Items such as this in re- + ports of municipal council meetings," John ~ Brown, to sheep killediby dogs, $26.00," are in our opinion altogether: too frequent. This Is only a sample. Sometimes the amounts paid out are much larger. They all add to farmer's tax bills. The greatest difficalty- of township coun- cils is to establish the ownership of sheep- - i killing dogs. i A few months ago the township of Thor- ah, in Ontario County, paid out an amount of over $200 to a farmer for loss sustained when dogs killed a number of his sheep. The township ascertained the owner of the rav- aging bow wows and entered suit to recover the amount of damages. Judge Thompson, in a judgment just handed out, has found in favor of the township. . There would be less money paid out for sheep losses if the townships would exert a great effort to establish the ownership of dogs." In the meantime it is a good law which enables the township to recover when ownership is proven. ADVERTISING AS A SALES FACTOR Striking acknowledgment of the value of advertising as a sales factor is to be found in the decision of the Canadian Life Officers Association to increase by fifty per cent its newspaper campaign of Institutioial Life Insurance Service advertising. This associa- tion, always a strong believer in the power of newspaper advertising to increase busi- ness, has reached the conclusion that condi- tion at the presenti dime are such as to justify an increase 'In 'its'advertising ap- propriation, for the sole purpose of stimulat- 'ing the sale of life insurance as a service to the people of Canada. : This advertising campaign, which is ap- pearing in The Times, uses a striking means of driving home the value of life insurance as an investment for the creation of an estate, and as a means of protection for the widow and children who may be left behind after the death of the husband and father. It is advertising of a dignified charicter, worthy of the nature of the business which it represents to the public, and it is advertis- ing of the type that brings results. That is the only reason why the association is increasing its appropriation. Past experi- ence has shown that advertising has brought about an increase in business, and now that business is not quite so easy to get as it was a few years ago, it is consid- ered a wise investment to increase the ad- vertising. _The Canadian Life Officers' Association #&'has shown good judgment in analyzing con- bv 42 ~ ditions in this way. If men in other lines _ of business would take a lesson from its "methods, there would be fewer complaints about depression and poor business. Those who are going after business today by means of judicious advertising, are getting jt, and that is exactly the thought behind the decision of the life insurance officers to do more advertising than ever before, STOP BEING AFRAID What a lot of. good time is wasted over _ being afraid? Hardly any movement for- ard has ever been made without someone pending time in worrying lest # should shurt him, ~ We all know how the retail merchant has "been scared almost to death of the advent f the chain store. Yet, when it has come, t a lot of merchants have simply plucked their courage, brightened up their busi- methods, done g lot more good adver- ing and found that -the chain store that d opened: next door had actually helpe rather than hurt, them, : "The railway, is.afraid of the bus line, the ertising. er of the newspaper is d a "radio, legitimate theater is od df the movie and talkie. If all the that" ik"speiit' in nursing fear were de- ed to studyifig the best methods of meet- new conditions and turning them to 's own use by corporation, if competition won't work, and by liberal use of advertis- ng, most of the nightmares would vanish. . Think of the advice of the trainer, when g felt that his man was nervous about go- ing into the ring, "Remember that the other is just as scared as you are, and the an w st quits being scared will score knoc . ut." THE PRINCE OF SALESMEN His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, is a great believer in the doctrine that you must get out after business. The Prince re- cently opened the British Trade Exposition at Buenos Aires, and he has become known affectionately as .the Empire's Prince of | Salesmen. In his address at the opening of the Ex- position, he displayed a marvelous grasp of empire and world-wide trade affairs, declar- ing that no country can live within itself no more than any individual can live within himself. In other words, one country must go out for business and promote trade with the other. His Royal Highness was right when he asserted that the world's depression is pro- ' bably due mainly to its failure to recognize trade as an interchange of products. This is the ideal which every country must real- ize sooner or later, and many do realize it now. And what applies to nations applies also to the individual. No man lives to him- self. Business must be sought after, and trade interchange established on a perman~ ent and mutual basis.

Other Editors' Comment EACH OF HIS OWN TONGUE (Stratford Beacon-Herald) There was some sort of a meeting called in Ogh- awa to talk about the merits of a gas bylaw, and the announcement said: "All citizens of foreign extrac- tion are cordially invited to this meeting to hear addresses on the gas bylaws in their native tongue, as well as in English, from prominent citizens," Attached there was a list of speakers, and some of the names we quote: Stanley Mozewsky, M. Mc- Intyre Hood, Rev, J. Chrustawka, M. Starcheska, The M, McIntyre Hood mentioned in there is the editor of the Oshawa Times, and before going there he used to hold forth on the Sentinel-Review in Woodstock. He's a blithering Scotsman, but he's getting into mighty strange eompany since he fived around here wliere we could keep an eye on him, Imagine a McIntyre' Hood and a Chrustawka on the same platform addressing a meeting for "citizens of foreign extraction" Mac might talk a bit of Gaelic to them, but his colleagues, Mozewsky and Starcheska wouldn't have any idea what he was nay ing; that would bring confusion in the ranks.

' RECKLESS DRIVER Smith was called to the phone, "Are you goin wn oty road this morning in your car?" adres a feminine voice: 'No," answered the astonished Smith, "But why do you ask?" "Oh, that's all right!" came in relieved tones over the wire, "I only wanted to know if it was safe to send my little girl around corner on an errand." : IMPORTANT CALL Caller--"[s the manager in?" .Bookkeeper--"No, he just went out to lunch with his wife."

They realize that home town busi- ness i8 worth going after; they are using space in local papers to sell the folks at home and, in addition, helping every business in the city by educating them to buy home made products. I quote from a page ad in the Tampico Tribune, set in the centre of an advertisement of what the manufacturer makes: "Use Tampico made products and in- crease your city's prosperity. "Every purchase of a locally manu- fi d article just so much more cash in local circulation, so much more capital invested in Tam. pico and so much direct benefit to the community. "No one is asked to buy an inferior product. © Take ours, for example. Qur product i8 as good as made any- where and our prices are as low."

WILSON DO FOR THE COMMISSION ON EVANGELISM OF THE FEDEML COUNCIL OF THE CHURCHES OF CHRIST IN [AMERICA A BUSINESS RISK "Unto. every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be tak- en away from him." Luke 19:26 (Read Luke 19:11-26.) Meditation The men who made such large re- turns on the money intrusted to them must have taken great risks. The fault of the third man was that he was prudent, cautious, afraid to take risks. The teaching of the par- able is that we must use or we will lose. But to use is to take chances of losing, To use our religion in the practical affairs of life is to risk it. Our treasure of faith is put to haz- ard when we take it out into the markets of life. There are many who think it is indanger from the science of otir day. What then? Shall we keep our religion separate and apart from business? Shall we shield our faith from contacts with the teachings of science? Those who counsel thege things indorse the con- duct of the man who laid his pound away in a napkin. Faith must face every challenge. rayer ,. Lord of the seas, grant unto us courage to launch out into the deep. Let not any fear possess our souls who have put our trust in Thee.

Captain of a crack Russian cav- alry Regiment during the war and observer in the White army air force, he fought the losing fight of the White generals Kolchak, {vanoff and Primoff in a last stand Forced back 'nto China, he turned to Canada as a haven frem terrorism rampant In his own country. His story is one which might be pathetic were he not so proud and well pleased with all that is Can- adian., He is happy here with his wife and a young son and daugh- ter are the pride of his parental eyes, Before the great war his family were millionaire land holders in Central Rusala, He was a young college student. "I was born at Osmk," he told a reporter. 'My grandfather and grandmother were very wealthy. They owned woollen mills, depart- mental stores, hotels and shipping lines in Chilhakirsk, Irkutsk, Sim- bhirsk, Uta, Perm, Nipni Novgodov and Omsk. More than three thou- sand persons were employed in the stores alone," he sald. "Our farms and holdings covered 45.000 acres. ¥nrolled For War "I had finiehed a year and a half at the University of Kiev when the war started.

A New Menace The peace and serenity of Har- bin was soon shattered, however, and a new menace loomed when war activities under the direction of Chang Tso Lin broke out.

At this point, how- ever, Dame Fortune smiled on them.

The deal was .promp- tly executed, however, and passage booked for Canada. Travellers from Canada .nd the United States, the refugee believes, know little of what really is hap- pening in the Soviet. The gov- ornment, he sald, shows them the main streets and the' most cheer- ful scenes, never taking them backstage where the suffering is to be found.

Melbourne, Australia, March 28.--"Assuming an air of utmost gravity, Archbishop Head gained the undivided attention of the delegates to the Provincial Synod," says The Argus, describing an in- terlude in the Synod, 'when, in the middle of a heavy session, he said: "I have heard a whispered suggestion from my brother bish- ops at my side." After a pause he added, "The suggestion is that they should be allowed an intervgl to smoke." When laughter had sub- sided Archbishop Head asked would someone move for an ad- journment to allow a period for smoking.. The Bishop of Bendigo, Dr. D. Baker: "Will the adjourn- ment be for the Li:hops only?" This was greeted with laughter. The motion for the adjournment was put first to the bishops, who agreed to the motion unanimous- ly, and it was subsequently agreed to by clerical and lay representa- tives. MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES Developments that have taken place in base metal mining in Can- ada in recent years have laid the foundation for large scale manu. facturing industry as well, This result of the opening up of our copper, zinc and lead mines is of the utmost significance in the growth of Canadian prosperity, says the Financial Post, Toronto. The value of the metal produced ~representing new wealth distri)- uted in the form of wages divi- dends, taxes, freight payments, etc.,~--1ig only the beginning. The establishment and expansion of further. production from our base metal mines, multiply the value of the metal ores as extracted from the ground. These operations rep- resent further new labor, new freight, new dividends. They have brought about a substantial de- cline in our imports of metals from other countries, a decline that we are only now beginning to notice. They are bringing about a very large increase in the value of our exports made from metal. Our hase metals are helping to stahi- lize our balance of trade and io urge us on to the point where we will be even larger exporters of capital. The Sherritt-Gordon has now come into production. It will first build up tonnage on one of the three 600-ton units, afety Deposit Boxes For the sum of $3.00 and up per annum, you can rent a box in our modern Safety Deposit Vault and place therein your Bonds Stocks, Mortgages, Deeds, Insurance Policies, Jewellery and other valuables, where they will be protected against fire, theft and misplacement.
