The Voice of the People
Clinton, Nov, 7th„ 1913
Mr. Editor: -My attention has been
raped to an article in the New Era of
Nov. 0, 1613, re buying Tungsten
Lamps from a Goderich peddler 1
think possibly, 151r. Editor, I am the
Councillor who bought one lemp (only
*one) at 45 cents. I did buy one lamp
at 5 cents Less than Clinton retail price
I bought it to show to our Etectrial
Superintendent, that he might exam-
ine as to value and if possible buy our
r next town supply at louver cost. And
this 1 hastened to follow out as Mr,
i
Chant can verify. I don't think Mr.
Editor I deserve, under these circum
stances,to be twitted with not at
o patron
izing home industry. Again Sir I un
det•stand the case of the
afore mention
ed Goderich salesman was inquired
Iinto, and we find our by law does not
• reach a case of that kind. One word
Ifurther, Mr. Editor, I think any citizen
is at liberty to buy lamps where he
can obtain most value for his money',
(providing they are not stolen proper
ty) but as a member of the Electric
Light Commision 1 can assure you the
committee will do their best to place
all such articles so close to first cost
1 that the pastures will be very poor for
the retail travelling salesman. Thank
ing you Mr. Editor for allowing this
explanation, I am yours,

the disease. Thechildren will be
urged to assume theirshareof the work
which lies chiefly in the care they take

already made a start. in 1913 by pur-
chasing at wholesale rates for its.

duction of improved breeding stock
