During the past three years they have had to face several increases in the price of news- print, and the end is not yet. Last week controller Pringle held an enquiry at Ottawa, and as a result an order giving the paper manufac- turers a still further increase from the prevailing price. Since January ist weekly publishers will have to pay an increase of $15.00 per ton, which will mean $92.00 per ton In carload lots and $95.00 per ton in less than carload lots. As very few week- ly publishers have either the capital or the storage room to avail them- selves of the carload price, it means that the large majority will for the coming six months pay an_ increase of $15.00 per ton over what they have been paying. ‘This price holds vood only until July Ist, when a fur- ‘her increase is ordered based on the current market price quoted by three) large exporting. companies. As a result of the increases in the -ost of newsprint and other things that enter into the cost of publishing over 100 newspapers went out. of business in Canada last year. Some papers were absorbed by, or amalga- mated with others; other papers ceas- ing publication, | - The reason for the increases in the newsprint prices is that the supply ig not equal to the demand in the ‘United States. . The large majority of the American newspapers are sup. plied from Canada, and as a matter of fact the American papers con- sume over 80 per cent, of the news- print manufactured. in Canada, The Americans are willing to pay high prices, and consequently the Cada- dian. newspapers have to meet Mert prices, or nearly so. tion. A free and independent press is absolutely necessary for the safety of the masses, even in a democratic country like Canada, Another re- sult will be that those newspapers that desire to live will have to raise their subscription price to $2.00 at least. In the United States the price of many weeklies is $2.00 and $3.00, and some weeklies in Canada have also adopted this rate. Certain it is that under prevailing conditions it will not be possible to survive long at the $1.50 rate. HIGH FINANCE Here is a story which Elbert Hub- bard used to rélate about James J. Hill, an old Eramosa boy. ‘Mr, Hill was a born money-maker. When he was a young man he had charge of a railroad section in the Canadian North West; and with three other men boarded at the Farmers’ and Merchants’ Hotel in the small’ town. Jim and these associates made about the same. wages—$47.50 a month. There was a very beautiful and comely younglady who was accust- omed to wait on the table where these young men ate; and. one, day just before Christmas, Jim said; “Boys, Lets do something for the girl,’ They’ said, ‘‘A’l right, Jim, we’ve been think ing about that.’ Jim said “Well, will you fellows do what- ever I do?” ' And they said “Yes” And so Mr. Hill surprised them by pulling out a twenty dollar gold. piece from his pocket and spinning it} on the table, and they said, Jim you are not going to give her that, are you?” Jim. Hill said “Yes.” One fellow said, “I have only ten dollars.” Jim said, “Give me the ten dollars and your note for ten and I will put up the twenty for you,” They raised the eighty dollars and presented it to the young lady. « The next day Jim Hill married the girl.

IN MEMORiAM Lather—In loving memory of our dear daughter, Leona E., who died of the flu on Jan. 23rd, 1919. One year has passed since that sad day, : When our dear daughter passed away, Forget her, no, we never will — For in God’s eare she liveth still. With a loving heart and a willing hand, | A voice we loved is still, A precious one from us is gone, Can never be fulfilled. Sad and sudden was her call Of our dear daughter, loved by all A bitter grief a shock severe, We little thought her death was near. The God that gave has taken, And heaven, dear, you’ve won, Although my heart is broken, Ty will, O God, be done. —Sadly missed by parents, Weir's List of Paruy Pir Sale : eee ee $6,600 will buy rot 35 and part of 86 in the 12th concession of Elma, 90 acres, new brick house 2 storey, bank barn; driving shed, pig pen, dril.})/... led well, gravel pit, 18 acres of hard- wood bush, worth $2,000.
