Who Is A Transient Trader? Who and what is a transient trader, is a subject that is often discussed and yet lit- tle understood in local circles. It is doubt~ ful whether half the merchants in Oshawa are fully conversant with what constitutes the transient trader, and for this reason a recent Leamington case is of interest. A town by-law of Leamington classifies the transient trader as "those whose names have not been entered on the assessment roll." The revised statutes of Ontario, how- ever, rule that transient traders are "those whose names are not on the assessment roll or who are enterd on it for the first time." The above case, which was tried before Magistrate Smith at Windsor, placed on record a decision that should be of interest 'locally. "The Magistrate ruled that the transi- ent trader is one who has not resided in municipality for three months before be- ginning business. He imposed a fine of $10 and costs of $5 on complaint that a transi- ent trader's license had not been taken out. The merchant began business on May 3rd, and on May 25 his name was placed on the assessment roll by the Leamington court of revision. There can be no hardship in requiring transient traders to take out a license. If they are acting in good faith and remain in business the money required for the license is applied on taxes and the transi- ent does not lose. If it were not for this safeguard all sorts of fly-by-nights would be bobbing up. The merchant who stays in town year in and year out and pays his taxes is certainly entitled to the protection he is getting." Conference Difficulties It was to be expected that everything would be smooth sailing at the Imperial Economic Conference. There were too many varying viewpoints to be reconciled to make an agreement possible without some trouble. On the other hand, it was » not expected that the British delegates would be the persons to place stumbling- blocks in the way. The advance view was that if anything occurred to upset the har- mony of the proceedings, it would come from the Canadian delegation. Just when it seemed as if everything was going smoothly, a rift has occurred. And the British delegates, according to the despatches from Ottawa, seem to be re- sponsible for it. They have adopted an attitude of taking all the concessions they can secure and giving as little as possible in return. That attitude, if persisted in, can do more to wreck the success of the conference than anything else. "It is of the utmost importance to the Empire that the question of Russian dump- ing of wheat, lumber and other products on the British market be settled once and for all. That is vital to trade between the dominions and the mother country, be- cause, if this dumping continues, there can be no stability of trade between them. The other question is that of the unwill- ingness of Britain to impose taxes on food in order to give a preference to the over- seas Dominions. That, of course, is in keeping with traditional British policy, but the chief concern of both Canada and Australia is to secure a preferred position in the British market for grain, beef and other food products. Unless this can be granted, there is little else of much benefit to these dominions. So, as we write this, there are grave fears for the ultimate success of the con- ference, and it is approaching its last days in the shadow of doubt. By the time these words appear in print, however, the diffi- culties may be swept away. It is to be hoped that they are, for if the conference adjourns without these two vital points amicably settled, all the other work it has "done will be of little value so far as this country, and other dominions as well, are concerned. ; East York township and New Toronto have decided to co-operate in the land settlement scheme, and Oshawa's decision will be made Thursday night, ' Newspapers Did It Echoes of Wolf Week at Sault Ste. Marie are still being heard, In his after-thoughts on this memorable occasion, J. W. Curran places much of the credit for the success of this event on the fact that newspaper publicity attracted thousands of people to the Soo. He uses this as a handle on which to hang some pertinent observations on the necessity of using the right methods to attract visitors to come to Ontario towns and cities and stay awhile. It was the newspaper stories which attracted the visitors, and brought strangers from a long way off to visit this little "bush town in Algoma." Here is what Mr. Curran says: "Is not the tourist business heading for the places which arouse interest?. Should not railways get behind worth-while pro- grams presented at strategic points? Should not Ontario seriously consider abandoning pamphlets and go into providing real ex- cuses for strangers to visit the province? Is not the whole policy of lovely 'literature' with pictures of beautiful scenery, which is labelled mostly 'A beautiful Scene in Ontar- io',--should not all this generalized stuff go into the discard, and the province be organ- ized along the lines of Wolf Week, which paid its way in the toughest tourist year on record." Thus Mr. Curran makes his plea for the use of newspaper publicity of Ontario towns and cities and the events which they are sponsoring as a means of attracting tourists. He knows from experience what the newspapers can do. Sault Ste. Marie business men, who reaped a rich harvest during Wolf Week, know it, too. Other places which wish to draw tourist trade can learn this lesson from the Soo--that if they wish to secure this business, let the newspapers secure it for them. Editorial Notes The British delegates to the Imperial Conference are maintaining the reputation of their race as being hard men in driving a bargain. Oshawa has an entrant in the marathon swim at the C.N.E. His fellow-citizens will wish him every success in his venture. The lake shore is proving the most popu- lar place in Oshawa these warm days. A W.C.T.U. speaker at Vancouver says liquor control is the greatest curse that. has ever been placed upon Canada. And she is not alone in this view. Sales of wheat have been greatly in- creased by newspaper advertising, says the Canadian Shredded Wheat Company. An- other instance of how it pays to advertise. Lawyers have to live--but it should be made as easy and cheap as possible for worthy aliens to become naturalized citi- zens of Canada. | Other Editor's Comments BRITAIN AND FOOD TAXES (Spectator, London) With all its desire to co-operate to the utmost of its power with the Dominions in every field, this country cannot afford to sacrifice itself to the Do- minions. They are young and developing countries. The future is with them in any case, for all they may be suffering, in common with the world, from the depression of the moment, Under no circum- stances can we tax the food--be it wheat or meat or butter--of our vast industrial population, even in return for import preferences which will inevita- bly diminish in value as time goes on, for Canada and Australia have made it perfectly clear, as they are fully justified in doing, that their aim is to develop their own manufactures, and to do that they will have to protect them against British im- ports no less than foreign. BITS OF VERSE Oh give me the fellow who's loking up, And who carries a smile on his face, You'll generally find he's made up his mind, To lead out ahead in the race, It isn't the size of the man, don't you see, But the size of the grit that's within, Which determines the pace at the end of the race, And changes the curse for a grin. It's so easy to do the best that you can, When cheered on by the folks at home, It's so easy to try with the crowd standing by, But. how do vou fight when alone? Yes, give me the man who has courage and hope, And a face smiling up to the sun, All through the long day, he'll be fighting away, And at night his task will be done. --W. H. Colclough. BITS OF HUMOR (An American visitor arrived at the outlying Irish terminus by the midday express and inter- rogated the ticket collector as to the hours at which he could return, He was told that the express which left at half-past two was the last departure of the day. This did not suit his eon- venience, so he unearthed the fugitive and cloister- ed stationmaster from his lair and asked him to name the price of a snecial. As soon as the sta- tionmaster recovered from his unprecedented rush of trade he named a certain sum as a reasonable compensation, which the American agreed to, and withdrew about ,his business. Toward 6 o'clock he burst through the barriers again, to find his pecial waiting for him, and something familiar J its aspect and that of the dumb, patient faces ¢ saw inside it,. roused a suspicion which he speedil . Sheedy confirmed; they had kept back the tWo- That manufacturers who are persistent advertisers are the ones who enjoy the greatesl busi- ness. They don't overlook ihe fact that a business cannol suc- ceed without the aid of advertis- ing. Modern manufacturers realize that they must tell about thelr products through the printed page, not once in a while but all the while, or nobody will know them, It takes persistent advertising to make people know a produet and not forget it, Quality, well advertised, is the world's best seller. People know wel] advertised lines and want Lo know them better, Truthful advertising = is tho power that keeps the wheels of business moving. When adver- tising stops, the wheels stand still and business is dead. People demand well advertised products, A concern that can't meet the demand of the public is at the end of its business life Only the manufacturers who are persistent advertisers will sur- vive for years to come. TRUTHFUL ADVERTISING WILL BUILD A BUSINESS. LACK OF IT WILL BREAK A BUSINESS. | ae J by C. H. Tuwok, Ope. B J el DEFECTS OF THE CHILD AND THE PRE-SCHOOL CHILD Part "7" According to reports available it is proved that defective vision is more manifest thar is actual dis- ease of the eyes, and this is indeed a very good thing. H is not, how- ever, any reason why the detective cases should be neglected. Many defective cases through neglect may become worse cases and are later on a par with diseased cases, "As the child is, in its forma- tive years, so is its health later on." Watch closely the present and you need have no fear for the future, Baby clinics and your physician have information and service at disposal. Sparkling bright eves are a sure sign of health, and it is trulv said "The eyes are the win- dows of the soul." Pleasant expression and an active interest in what is going on, a clear color in face and cheeks and a healthy desire for nourishment are also signs of health, Teach the value of regular habits; regular sleep, regular meals, regular func- tions. Much inconvenience will be avoided. (To be Continued) WHAT OTHERS SAY REGARDING DEPORTATION Oshawa Daily Times, Dear Sir,~Re Alderman Hyman on deportations, personally I do not think any Canadian in possession of an open or sane mind is in fave or of deporting any British sub. ject due to there being unable to maintain themselves in the present crisis, as there are many Canadians in like position. However, I would like to cxpress my aversion to Al- derma,, Hyman's statement, that none of the foreigners should be deported in as much that at one time the railroads and other mis- directed companies maintained that the country could not get along without them, There are at present and have been in the past many who have employed labor, no other than British Subjects successfully, and it' these foreigners migrate in the belief that far off fields are greener than their own, then they are not entitled to send their money home to their own country through years of employment and success, and immediately they are unemployed become a public bur- den to honest taxpayers, Of corizse there are exceptions, but in as much as Alderman Hyman is so kind- hearted, I would suggest that the council turn over to Alderman Hyma,, those 'foreigners, who have bec in receipt of relief ever since they came to Oshawa, to keep and clotl.e until he 'can provide them with work, Furthermore as a taxpayer, I think it ill becomes an alderman of the city to neglect the city's welfare for a possible oppur- tunity for self-gain.
