I THINK THIS OVER 1
NIT MEER NlNfl
An article which oppeared recently
in the aTorouto "Sitar" refuted that To-
ronto is the most expensive place in the
world to live, and a few days gaiter the
Suyor o: Toronto (lta(lted the etstetrnont
to prove a point, showing conelusivaly
that he wee in accord with the writer of
the article, This may oe may not be an
k:s;a„ getVation, but one fact ie evident to
any persen who has had any experience
la living in Toronto or any other large
town, the cost of livi:tg is materially.
;;;'~eater than in the smaller places. The
Torouto L.. , are toying; to evade the
resulte of tee city's growth by taking
homes an far away from the centre of
the city au poesibie, endtirirg the hard•
(lntps incident to long car tiden and foci
iiervice, rather than submit to the eeae•
tions of the city landlord, the city
butcher, the city grocer -th fact, all the
hundred and one duan•"_vantageo and
.additional expenses of city life. In
hese suburbs you will find proeperons
stares epringinpl tap. The people who
:.novo away fsu`i the city patronize
these steres, because the keepers of
them are not compelled to charge city
Ilaice4 on recount of taws, rents, water
fund light rates being excessive. Tha
mnerchants's burdens are less and hie
prices accordingly more moderate.
The peculiar part of the situation is
that people who live a little farther
from Toronto •- that most expeneive
town -do not appreciate their blessings,
. but actnaily believe they can chop to
batter advantage in Toronto than they
can in their home towns. When the
citizen of Toronto hears this he notarial-
ly smiles, bat there are folks right here
in our own town who do not see the
humor of the situation and contin-
e uslly send their money to the large city
stores, in other words, do considerable
- Of their shopping by mail,
If you have no idea of what it coats to
ruin a city store, it would do you good
to hear the experiences of some who
have conducted busineso under those
conditions. We appreciate, of course,
that the City Correll has to find rev-
snue for etreet cleaning, sewers, pave-
ments and also to meet the interest on
the enormous bonded debt of the mania
oipalrty; and also that the Electric
Light Company and the. Gas Comp:my
mast pay dividerde; but what we want
to ask yon to consider Seriously it "Why
should the'reeidents of Wingham help
to meet those expenses?" We have to
pay our own little taxes hero -they are
scot very high, but still we have done
our duty when we have paid them,
without assisting the citizens of Toronto
to pay theirs.
Do you not think we are doing enough
for the large cities by keeping up good
roads for their automobiles, without
helping them to pay for their automo-
bilea too? A .great many people in the
country districts object very strongly to
these "devil wagons," and try to legit -
into against them. We wonder if they
realize how many of them they pay for
by their shopping -by -mail habits.
Give the matter a little consideration,
and yon will find that you are losing the
advantage of life in Wingham if you do
ziot do your shopping here.
