THUR6TON, F. J. T11UKSTON - Editor Assoc. Editor POWER OF ADVERTISING Beyond all question the most potent creator of business demands in Canada is the newspaper ad- vertisement. Millions upon millions of dollars are expended every day in the stores of the Dominion be- cause well written advertisemnts have directed public attention to convenient, becoming, attrctive use- ful, ornamental and suitable mer- chandise. The sale ot all necessities all luxuries, all indulgences, is more powerfully stimulated by the news- paper advertisement as a promoter of sales and even purchases of food, fuel and clothing are directed more largely by the business col- umns of the press than by any other influence except immediate neces- sity. The largest stores in our greatest cities have been built up by their advertising, thciA persi4tent Sirul clever invitation to the public in the press to share in their bargains. Imagine what would happen to daily sales of merchandise, real estate, theatre tickets, insurance, books and other things, if m v. jijiper advertise. ments were prohibited by law for six months It is not exaggeration to say that they would drop 50 per cent. It i- not the current ntnvs of events alone that mfkes the press of such incalculable value to the nation, ror the free editorial ex- pression of opinion. The business news of the day, as told by business concerns in their announcements to the public, decisively influences both the volume and th direction of trad* which flows to this or thai store, office or bank. This Is a fundamental fact no business house can afford to overlook. VICTORIA DAY Deeper reasons than just a desire for another holiday lie behind gen- eral observance throughout tlu' Do- minion of Canada of the anniversary of the birth of Queen Victoria. This is not just another holiday, a mean- ingless observance. Though Alexandria Victoria ili'd more than a quarter of a centur\ ago, her influence is still felt throughout the British Empire. She left an indelible mark upon the English character and created for her.-elf an eternal place in the Hs- tory of her country and cn'pi'e. As one of Bri'ain'i grent queens, her court was a model of correctness and propriety and under her patron- age and influence literature and the other arts p-ogrexsed, the empire en- joyed a period of unprecedented ex- pansion and gained new political lienhh. Canadians do not need to be re- minded of th "Mid-Victorian Age." Her reign brought the union of Up- per and Lower Canada and later the confederation of all the province-, into the Dominion of Canuda. Re- ligious and political reforms were promulgated, and Canada and the United StirtcH entered upon a new rra of friendly relations that has continued t-> this dav. Eighty-two years good Queen Vic- toria lived, but she lived not long enough. i ( \STRATION DEMOSTRATIONS During the week beginning May 20th. Mr. Jns. Telfer, Shopp Pro- moter, or Mr. W.

Henderson Laid To Rest Thursday Joseph Henderson, who died on May 13th, 1930, at Maxwell, third son of the late Robert and Fanny Watson Henderson, was born at La.skay in North York on April 1st, 1851. Five years later his parents moved to a bush farm in the township of Artemesia in the County of Grey, five milts from the village of Flesherton. In this isolated spot Mr. Henderson spent the next fifteen years of his life, but on July 2nd, 1861 he was orphaned by the accident al death of his father, upon whom a log fell while assisting at the raising of a log barn some miles from his home. Only those who experience a loss, such as this, can realize the dark and discouraging outlook for the sor- rowing widow and her nine almost helpless children. After some years of privation and hardship, but absolute harmony In the home, this noble widow lived to see her much respected family of three amiable girls and six stalwart boys all happily married and filling honorable positions in the city and community in which they are all re.-pected residents. After leaving the old homestead she made her home with her youngest daughter, Mrs. John Johnston, where she enjoyed all the comforts that a grateful fam- ily could bestow on her in her de- clining years. The early years of our subject's life were spent on the old homestead lining his share in supporting the lorgc family so suddenly bereft ot the b 'cad-winner of the home. Under great difficulties he received only a limited education at the log school house in the neighborhood. Mr. Henderson wa.- twice married. On January 1st, 187'.), he v.as firs: married to an estimable young wom- an, Jane Poole, daughter of the late Thomas Poole of Lady Bank, who was drowned on the ill-fated steamer Asia in the Georgian Bay. To this hnppy union were born two noble sons and two estimable daughters, Robert T., who died April 12th, 1924, and James, who died on June 23rd of the same year, Mina, wife of Jame? Fletcher of Gibraltar and Millie, wife of Donald Fletcher of Collingwood. Three years after the death of the mother of the.;e children on April 14th, 1902. Mr. Henderson was united in marriage to Mary Heron (only daughter of an honored pioneer of the township of Osprcy, the late Rich- ard Heron of Maxwell) who survives him. Early in manhood Mr. Henderson devoloped a thirst for religious know- ledge and having accepted the doc- trines and creed of the Methodist denomination was received into that communion in which he was devoted and consistent member of Mount Zion Church A few years later, being of in evangelistic turn of mind, the hurch at that time not giving suffic- ient scope for the development of his evangelistic talents, he was led to join the Salvation Army for which service his natural abilities eminently qualified hm. Not aspiring to becom- ing an officer in the Army, nor hav- ing a desire to sever his home ties, he built a ba'-racks on his farm which has been used to the present time for Army meetings, but for so:n* years, on account of ill health, the subject of this sketch was prevented frnm attending nny of the .*erviee.<. As n mark of appreciation for his services, however, the rank of Sergeant-Major was conferred on him by the Army some vears ago. His daughter.

Its residents .iro never prosperous auain, and those who possess foresight movj to another town where more possibilities are presented to them. Flesherton is n growing and prosperous community. It is for the residents of this town to say whether or not progress will con- tinue. The merchants and businessmen are the backbone of its success. On their business depends the progress of the community. A prosperous community is thp same as n successful, largo cor- poration^ The residents of Flesherton are the stockholders cf the town. The merchants are the directors. If the business, as oper- ated by the directors, shows large profits, the residents will receive the benefits in dividends. A stockholdsr who does his personal business with another firm nnd buys his goods in cities outside, acts in opposition to his own interests. It would be n foolish move in business. Residents of this town buy in other places because they do not realize the harm they are doing themselves in doing so. Public spirited residents should instruct their neighbors. Tell them that you buy here and get better value for your moey than they do in other plnces. Build up for increased civk dividends.
