DIFFERENT METHODS
Every manufacturer, merchant and business man Is a
firm believer in, advertising, but enfh hi more or leas
doubtful as to the best means: of getting their nriessages
over to the consumer. Radios, telephone*, hand bills and
newspapers, have been tried in turn, with 'varying re-
sults, and when "enough to i
pay for the advertising, and also leave a fairly decent I
margin of profit, some advertisers are disposed to give
up in despair. It is however, the persistent advertiser,
that wins in the end, and many instances could be cited
to prove that statement. •
Some of Canada's largest business houses confine
their advertising to newspapers; radios are. turned on
for entertaininent; phone calls are necessarily brief, and
quite often hand hills are exposed to rain, 'wind,
sleet and snow. When a door bell is rung to re-
ceive a hand bill, the lady of the house is as often as
not, angered at being compelled to take a number of
extra steps for something in which she was not at all
interested at the time.. If hand bills are left,on the
lawn, ateps, verandah or enerance, some person has to
gather them up to preserve the tidiness of their premi-

is no harm in disturbing the established order of things,

might reasonably be done.
APPOINT:MENT OF AUDITORS
Municipal Councils all over Ontario will shortly be
Appointing their auditors for _another _terra. _The prac-
tice of choosing former members, With nothing to re-
commend them but their former membership, has little
to commend itself. As members, those men probably
served their towns, townships or villages, as capably as
many others have done, but their knowledge of book-
• keeping or auditing was negligible.
Bat often under' the impression that auditing was
nothing more than checking receipts for. payments, their
• former-vouncilecolleagues- offered- them -the position of
Auditors, and as there is always a salary attached to
• the job, it was invariably accepted. The auditorship has
in some cases been giventowould-be members a. a re-
hah.hhhhhhhhAhha
• cognition of services rendered, and -the results have not
alweye been satiefactory from the public standpoint.
When municipal receipts and payments were Compara-
tively few, it was a simple matter, to check the affairs
of any municipality. To -day, with its debenture debts,
local improvement rates, county- rates, school retest.
• and possibly half a dozen other rates, municipal book-
keeping is more involved, and only people trained in the
• handling of. accounts should be entrusted- with auditing
• public hooks.
It is no reflection upon clerks and treassurers to aps
point chartered, or capable, accountants, to cheek their
wad; inafactssmany _otathose officiate have.expressed
• preference for experienced ouditors, rnther than those
who are appointed because they are good fellows.
• Offieials must feel a sense of satisfaction when their
,hooks have been pronounced correct, by traireed men.
rather than by men whom they had to advise and assist
• in the discharge•of their duties.
A man might be a suceessful breeder. Of sheep, or
• cattle, or pigs, but know absolutely nothing about
• thoroughbred horses. The same argument applies as to
auditing books, he might be a. sound business num, but
totally ut sea, when it comes to keeping or auditing
books. Municipal bodieS will be protecting their own
laCieste, andralso those of the Clerks and Treasurers, if
they appoint trained men to do their auditing.

hear of another asklig for a band bill? A newspaper is

Having heard the plea of the press that Santa Claus
was short of cash, the Ontario Government, has extend-
ed the time for the payment of next year's motor licens-
es, until January 15th. It is a timely extension:
Mussolini is not taking kindly to the peace •overtures
suggested by the League of Nations. He seems to have
thought- that Italy was not getting enough, though 220,-
000 square miles were te go to Italy in return for 3,000
square miles to be added -to Ethiopian territory. Ethiopia
also rejected the peace terms. At this distance, the
suggested peace terms do look like rewarding Mussolini
for being a bully.
Dr, Alexis Carrel, winner of the Nobel prize in 1912,
deelares it will be possible to extend the natural dura -
'tion of life by postponing death for a century, if not two.
Better health and longer life, would be quite acceptable,
if Dr. Carrel would also introduce a more elastic sys-
term of earrency. Whe_would want tolive thro.ugh aacie• s
pressito)fot two -centuries? In the meantime, the average
human will be content with the three score years and ten
as established long before Dr. Carrel, or his long-
range life, was thought of.

is the law, which is supposed to be unchangeable, but
it is a man-made measure, and therefore could be chang-
ed, at least to exempt women, though they may have
shown small concern for their victims. Callous people
will contend as women are erilveding men in the business

ment is net -to incurthem.

The 'annual effort of the Lion's' Club to carry a little
joy and gladness into the lives of crippled children, des
serves very possible encouragement. While charitable
-dales are many, there are few with stronger appeals
than those of children, and when those children are
handicapped by deformity, or some other physical or
mental defect, their "claim upon thegenerosity of the
public is stronger than it otherwise would be. Members
of the Lions Club, are subscribing from their fundd as a
body, and also individually. Tbey are, in some cases
perhaps unconsciously, by their contributions, honoring

Though the public buildings, owned by the County of
Bruce, had been inspected by three Grand Juries during
1935, a fourth inspection was made last week bY"' the
County Court Jury, contrary to the advice of the presid-
ing judge. The Walkertoa Herald -Times criticizes:the
Jurymen for "each grabbing off the $4allowance as ex-
tra day's pay," considering it, as the judge &lid, an un-
necessary expense. Are the jurymen really to be
'denied? Of course there was nothing to be gained by
four inspections of the County buildings, including the
jail, bet living as they do, next door to Miss Agnes Mc-
Phail,, and her constitutency, of Grey County, they
neity have imbibed some of her entlinsiasin for jail in-
spections. That extra' 14.00 would help them out qp
their Christmas shopping, so who can blame them at
this joyous season.

Cabbages always remind one of sauer-

German towns within a few miles of
Stratford, such as Brunner, Gad,'s
Breslau, Baden, Wellesley, St, Jacobs,

be sold,in these towns for sauerkraut
making, well, the German dish must be

A' nineteen -year-old bank teller at
Hull, Quebec, was shot and killed by
gangsters after obbing the bank ''' of
8,15,000. The young teller tried to pro-
tect the bank's money and gave the rob-
bers a battle but was shot down. Eleven
arrests have been made in connection
with the slaying and one well known
rnderworld figure from the U. S. A. was
shot and killed by provincial police offi-
cees hi an apartment house raid. The
Canadian .10.:* does not fool and the
