Cost More To See The optical trade throughout Can- ada has' been notified of the mater- ial increase in the price of spectacle lenses, to take effect at once, For the first time in the history of the trade the manufactures have found it neces- sary to cancel all orders on hand at former prices, giving for their reason the scarcity of labor and the tremedous increase in the price of the raw -mater- ial, in some instances over 200%. Papers Away Up On the different kinds of book paper. used in a printing office increases range from 64%on newsprint to 125% on Eggshell book. Manillas have gone up 40%, on Kraft wrapping and coat- ed enamel, from 6'1 to 69%. Bond papers have increased from 60 to 150 %, The greatest increasee in the cost of .materials has been on ink of 111 grades, which has gone from 25 to 300 % over former prices. Hydro at Zurich.

Zurich Herald:—Since last Thursday the.streets and houses of Zurich have. been lit with power supplied by the Hydro Electric Commission of Ontario. Every street in our village is now bril- liantly lighted, the lights burning from 7 o'clock in the evening to 6 o'clock in the morning. They go on and off automatically, a time switcli-doing the work. Many of the houses are now using hydro power, and it will not be long before • most of our citizens will use it for ironing, cooking etc., as the cost is small if used with care, Ontario's Voters' Liit Instructions have been given the law clerk of the Legislature to prepare the forms of declarations to be shade in connection with the enrolment of vot- ers upon the new Ontario voters' list. This, however, does not mean that a new Ontario list will be used in the expected Federal elections, Attorney. General Lucas says the Dominion Gov- ernment may make a 'list of its own. 'We have no idea what Ottawa intends to do, and are only taking the first steps toward getting out own list ready," he said. "This will take two or three months at least." Not Much News A newspaper man could go 'seven` days in a week, seven tines a day, and ask different persons for the news and each time to be told there is ab- solutely nothing going on in this lo- cality.

When you know of anything of importance that has transpired tell us -every time. 'That's what we are in the business for. To publish the news.

Flavelle,.chairman of the Board of License Commissioners, says the Ontario Temperance Act has been more successfully administered than the commissioners had expected at the out 'set. "There ere now in Ontario over 100 more standard hotels than when the Act went. into force. We have been receiving many letters from travelling men, stating .that the accom- rodation is better today and that more atention is given to the accommodation end of the hotel and less to the bar as formerly. We have also received letters from prominent business men who at the outset were opposed to the Act, but are now strongly in. favor of it. They tell us teat they are selling more goods, and accounts are ,,.-mew paid that were never paid before: The Ontario Temperance Act has practic- ally dune away with open drunken- ness on the street. Under the present Act, the Dominion Act precedes the Ontario Act. Under the former act a fine of from , 5f to . 5 00 can -be imposed on druggists selling intoxicating be- verages and wines, but under the On- tario Act a fine of from $5200 to $1,000 can be imposed. .An amendment is under way, which will enable us to prosecute under the -Ontario Act. It is not fair that the -druggists should suf- fer in this respect unless they are flagrantly breaking the law, and we purpose to go after the manufacturer first."
