advertently, it was stated the Amer-

to expend gl:,.iJJ tor the purchase of
laud to erect a suitable building for
their proposed new plant. Untortun-
etely this should have read 1114S00, as
this land is situate in Goderich, not
Toronto. The Signal is, however,
hoping for the day when land here
will be worth the figure stated in
error.

TO ORGANIZE HERE
Local Retail Mercaaab Will Likely Form
a Protective Body
For some time past the need of the
local retailers handing themselves to-
gether in some sort of an organization
for self protection bas been apparent.
However, until last Thursday night
when it number of interested ones
gathered in the Board of Trade rooms
tor the purpose of 'Stetting to ad-
d mem given by Mr. E. M. Trowern,
sectetarof tie Retailers Association
of Canada, and Mr. J. A. Challis. of
Toronto. nothing of a deSnite nature
bas yet been accomplished. At this
meeting • resolution moved by
Mr. F. J. Pridbam and seconded by
Mr. Fred Hunt was passed. The mo-
tion was that all those present at the
meeting express their sympathy of
the movement and that steps be taken
to have an organization started Gere.
The parent body was started in Tor-
onto no November 71b, 19116. and has
since spread to ell parts of the Domin-
ion.
Both speakers urged upon the gath-
ering the need of organization and
having a protective society. They
showed that as a rule the retailers
controlled more wealth than tiny other
class of people in any city or town.
Tberefore, it was up to them to see
that their rights were not trampled
on. Tbey further illustrated that the
farmers were begioping to realise that
they must co-operate if tbey are to be
protected by tbe government. The
merchants should do the same and
join together to secure legislation for
their beoeflt. Both speakers scored
the bad practise of rivalry. and carried
to a greet extent was only ruining
trade. They held up this motto, "that
unity is strength." The publication
of a 'dead beat" list was also suggest-
ed. This may likely be done here later,
as it met with the general approxi.

A well-known axiom of commercial

Now, everybody toows that as Cao-
