URRY HOUSE LAMPS 36 Bay!-`ield St. The north country papers are ad- vancing the name of Harry Linney of Bracebridge for the position of pub- licity officer to take hold of pro- paganda furthering the -interests of the tourist trade of Ontario. A ;number of municipaljcouncilsand in- dividuals, including `the transporta- tion men, are also asking for Mr. Linney s appointment. The step is well taken. Mr; Linney is an, old newspaper man, having at one time been on the staff of `The Examiner. He has made asuccess of his own business, and, none is better fitted to head a bureau to make known to the outside public the beauties and advantages of the Highlands of On- tario as a national playground. The Government is at last taking hold of the matter as a department of its i 'Newspaper advertising" rates in weekly papers in Ontario are away- below those in papers across the line. - Take the state of New York,` for in- stance: the Adams Journal with a circulation of 1,748 charges 35 cents an inch; the Andover News, with 1115 circulation has a rate of 35 cents an inch; the Attica News with 1294 circulation, _4O cents an inch; the Avon News with 655 circulation,j 45 cents an inch; the Bath.Courier, 2460 circulation, 50 cents an inch, and so on. Papers of 400 and 500 circulation are paid 30 cents an inch and papersof 1,000 and over not less -than 40 and manyof them 45 cents. If The Examiner charged proportion- .ately for its circulation, users of its space would be paying three or four times the rates charged. Consid- ering the service given, advertising rates in The Examiner are exceeding- ly reasonable. " Many a holder of the Canadian! Government bonds maturing `Dec- eniber 1, 1922, has been asking this question, What shall I do. with the money? The "advertisement of the! Rdhster of Fhnance suppes an an-i swer.

Like a Pickled Nut . Wingham Tim_es-The Walkerton Telescope seems to think that the motorist who faces with an express train for a crossing has a screw loose in his mechanism. Perhaps---or lse the nut may be tight. ` T resultant shortage and high prices is that people are `compelled to seek One effect ofithe coal strikes with` substitutes for this fuel. Where pow- _ ` er is available at reasonable prices, , electric motors are replacing coal-fed steam` plants in manufacturing es- ltablishments, electric ranges are be- _ ing installed by hundreds. while the demand for electric heaters is so great that the factories can scarcely keep up with the orders. General heating by electricity not being yet possible, fuel oil is being adopted ` for` many homes, office buildings, `etc., in the cities.` The installationsi such as these mentioned will not mean simply a temporary replace- ment of coal; they will be permanent. Even though the black diamonds be- come plentiful `and lower in price, people will not throw out electricity [or oil for coal. They are not likely `to forget the position in which the l strife between miners and operators ,has `placed them. Instead of revert- ing to coal, they will strive to render themselves still less dependent upon {this kind of fuel. This will havethe `effect of reducing the demand for coal by hundreds of thousands of tons with consequent lessening of pay for the miners and reduction of profits for_ the operators. " And the public which has always had to pay the shot for these mining troubles, whether real or staged .for the pur- pose of keeping upcoal prices, won t waste any sympathy upon either mine owners or men. - One Idea. of Squ,are Deal I Brandon Sun: After all a good many people who cry out for. a square deal do not want one that will put them on a level with anybody else. w&ma&&m&mmm&&&] V; AMONG EXCHANGES g] m I &m&%&%%&&&&m&m$!

' Barrie flower growers who visited! the horticultural display at the Tor-j onto Exhibition could hardly fail to notice how far the general exhibits [fell short of those seen at the recent flower show here. Outside the mag- `nificent collection of gladioli shown by the St.` Thomas Horticultural" So- ciety and some of the exhibits bypro- fessional growers, the flowers `were not to be compared with those on ,view at the Barrie flower show. Such a comparison is not needed to demogisti-ate the high quality of the local exhibition. Yet it is well that ourown people should appreciate the superior excellence of our show when compared with a horticultural display drawn from various parts of the pro-. vince . The Barrie Horticultural So- ciety and the townspeople generally have great reasonsto take pride in Barrie s annual flower exhibition. A very practical method of mani- lfall membership campaign and to lend a hearty support to the Society in its various undertakings for beau- tifying the town. festing this pride is to join up `in the ` A `conference was held in 'l`or- ontoelast week to suggest and discuss > improvements to the present law gov- erning motor vehicles. -The greatly ` increased number of cars necessitates stricter regulationsto ensure safety and for pedestrians in `the cities. One class of motorists that should re- ceive more attention is the road hog. It is quite a common occurrence for `a. motorist to be crowded right to for vehicular traffic on the hlghwaysl the side of the road or into the ditch iby some `driver. with porcine procli- vities. A man is entitled to his share of the road and could get damages in case of a collision where the other motorist failed to yield a proper por- tion. Few careful drivers care to take a chance on colliding and so the road hog goes tearing right ahead ,un`molested. A stiff penalty for the loffence might have a salutary effect in teaching some degree of courtesy to those indulging in this selfish and dangerous practice.
