A "•PAY AS YOU GO" PLAN.
In the current issue of The Printer
and Publisher there is an article
from the pen of Mr.
of Toronto, formerly Robert
of lithe
Clinton New Era,. about getting a

he does not lose interest in the work
use because he is not now engaged ed
heroin.
Mr, Holmes says : No subject
worries a publisher more than this
phase of the business. I think J• lost
several thousand dollars while I was
in business through unpaid subscrip-
tions and 1 ventui a to say that many
publishers have had ,similar exper-
fences,"
There Inc a number of people who
seem to imaginethat if they pay the
"butcher, the baker and the candle
stiok maker" it doesn't so much mgt-
ter about the publisher of the week-
ly newspaper.
Mr. Holmes is of the opinion that
nothing will remedy this evil except
tate adoption of the absolute prepay-
ment plan, which all the daily and a
number of the !say weeklies •leave al-
ready adopted.
It would simplify 'the publishers'
business very much if people regard-
ed their indebtedness for their week-
ly newspaper in the same way that
they do their indebtedness for any-
thing else which is supplied them
regularly and paid for it according-
ly.

if they're all like that sample they -
're all right," -
Asked about conditions in England
Major Shaw said that rationing, was
strictly enforced there. "One of the
most pleasing sights when I arrived
in Oanada," he remarked, ,"was the
nice white bread. The bread we bad
in En •land ryas •dark. and •coarse and
g
often dry, It is.% de of corn, rye

McKinnon, who was presi-
dent 0f the Halifax University
before- going overseas, started the
Khaki College movement with the
161st battalion, a movement which
has grown and spread until
it has been taken up by ,rho
authorities and will be extended to
France, has been appointed president
of the organization and is now in
Canada in Its interests. The idea
was taken up with enthusiasm lel' a
number of the TIurons, studies brok-
en off at the time of eelistmelit were
taken up again and real progress ryas
made. Out of a class of eight in
Latin- seven ;were 161st • nee. There
was much done to amuse' the then
and while that was considered :all
right Chaplain McKinnon ' thought
some instruction could also be im-
parted.
The Canadian soldier ,has won the
respect of everybody, especially of
the British officer, in the opinion, of
Major Sltasv, An English officer, a
nobleman and a lifelong soldier who
has been accustomed to manage m.eu
all his Iiia, Cola a psi ty of Canadian
officers, Major Shaw included, that
they "iati not realise' what Lino sol-
diens, the Canadian boys were."
Speattg of the varied stories ofr-
culatcd in Canada regarding drinlc-
ing among thio soldiers Major Shaw
said that in the year and a half he
was in England there :were just %sev-
en cases of 'drunk" .brought before
him and one' was a second ollence.
And hie as medical oflcer of the bat-
talion, had to examine all such cases,
130 said. he could only speak for the
cue battalion but that It was re -
•tnitrkabiy free from disorderliness of
any kind.
It certainly is cheering news to
hear from the Huron boys,overseas
that they are doing such Monoee. ,to.,
the homes from which they went and
to the training of the parents who
await so anxiously and prayerfully;
their return from the field of strife.
Major Shaw could have accepted a
post in England but, LIS he said, it
was not to remain in lengland he
went over and as he could not go cu
to France, when the battalion was
broken up he preferred to return to
