That growth is still going on, and going on rapidly, is shown by thefact that the increase of 1908 over 1907 was 8,000 copies daily. In the editorial P011031 The Star hal gained a reputation tor sanity and fairness, and while it has strong views it never berated those whose views are different. When it comee to news -gathering The Star oan generallY be depended noon to lead the way to enterprise. That it does not spare ex, panda in serving its readers was illns- grated teeny tunes during the year, a notable illustration being on the woes - kin of the Olympic games, when it sent a member of its staff from Toronto to England to cover them especially by cable and letter for The Star. The Star not only gate the best news, but 1t dress- es ie up so as to make its pages bright and attractive. It is a firm believer in the value of striking pictures. These are some of the reasons. why The Star is now supreme in its field: One of the latest features of the paper has been a series of articles on combines, whioh has been attracting very wide attention, These articles are being quoted and commented on everywhere, and one subscriber wrote the other day to say that one of the articles alone was worth his whole year's subdoription. t o IIr.

There are large numbers of people in this community, and in fact every community, who are known as "banterers". No matter how cheap an article may be they will not buy unless so much is "thrown off". To overcome this diffleulty many merchants (some in Wing - ham) have adopted a pian of marking up their goods and in this way they are enabled to "throw or and still make a fair profit. The danger with this method is that if you do not happen to be a "banterer" you are sometimes liable to pay :lore for an article than what it is really worth, and it is therefore not to be wondered at that some people are termed as "close" who in reality are willing to pay a fair price, but are afraid that unless they "banter" they are, as above stated, liable to pay more for an article than its real worth. Now WE HEREBY PROCLAIM to the people of this com- munity that ''RIGHTLY OR WRONGLY," "win or lose," we intend to stick to our principle of selling at The lowest possible prices, and one price to all.
