EARLY CLOSING (Seafarth Expositor) On Monday evening of this week a publie meeting was held in the Car- negie Library Hall, Seaforth, to dis- cuss the; question of early closing of the business places on MainStreet on Saturday nights. The idea of closing originated with one of the, church. boards in town, who issued an invitation to other churches, to fraternal societies and business men to send delegates to at- tend a meeting, wi,ien the pros and cons of early closing on Saturday night would be thoroughly discussed. In this way there was a large repre- sentative attendance on Monday ev- ening. , After a pretty thorough discussion, it seemed to be the almost unanimous opinion of the meeting, that under pre- sent conditions, early closing on Sat- urday nights would not be practical in Seaforth. There are, many things that have entered into present day life that sup- port thiso andh opinion, p oz , the chief lei of these is the automobile. Since its ad- vent trade boundaries in country dis- tricts and towns have been eliminat- ed. Competition has increased • tla hundred per cent, No longer is a farmer's field of purchase limited to his nearest town. Ten, twenty, or thirty miles means nothing to a car. driver, and unless the town merchant is willing to supply the goods and service when it is demanded, then that trade is going to some other town, It is only within the past few years that the question of early Saturday night closing has been before the public. Hitherto the time when the country towns looked for their har- vest of business was Saturday after- noon. That was the one time in the Week when . the farmers calve into, townrto do their week's shopping and every country town. eyes a hive of y business on Saturday afternoon. But miles Meant something in those days: Ittook the average farmer one to three hours to get home. He didn't stay late. The car :changed all that. Com- petition has increased with the farm- er and wages have doubled. A goad farmer can find use for all the day- light right on his farm. And he does use it. If 'he is a car user, and most of them are, he knows that to reac'i town is only a question of minutes., 'That is why business iii a town does not really start until after nine o'clock on Saturday night in the sum - Mer time. Nor is the: farmer in a hurry to get home again. Home is only a few minutes away; he pas time to do his shopping and go to the movies too, and naturally, the movies come first. With this arrangenient the town merchants do not object; They knew that the moving picture show draws as many 'people , 'end . from a wider area as does any other ,attraction, and that these people will do at least some business in the tow every Sat- urday night they are here. But to secure their ledeiees0 they have to wait until a late hour. That is why early closing is not practicable. Thereare, of course; two sides to every queston, and wbcl`;le the above 1�. pi etty much the opinion of the merchants, there are others who maintain that ,the closing of all bu.si- ness places by ten of clevee o'clock on Saturday night would, add to the physical and moral welfare of the community life, That such a dosing. wotild release employer and employee at an hour that would' permit of a good night's rest and take from them the excuse of being too tired to at- tend eburoh on Sunday.. in 'a nut- shell, it would lead to a better ob sentence of the Sabbath. ' That there is great room fel• ini- provement in this: generation's ob•• servance' of the Sabbath, ail thinking Hien will agree, but that early closing would figure in that improvement is a debatable question :ie the minds of many. As far as 'Clerks and delivery boys are concerned, in the town at any rate, we :do not see how their earlier release from wade would have any bearing 'on the case. The latest that selerks are 'kept is 10;30; very .. few that late, and thoe�fete every eel- do1n,' and to compensate for that i1v- ertinic,. they have a weekly half` holi- dey- during five months of the year, 'The then who, lceets :he store orient after that hour is the owner himself, and that own et 05,1 and sloes tiSc.liis own discretion in the matter of` clefs- ing. • silvery man leas •t right to his coin opinion, but no man is. a :law Pinto his neighbor; Main Street largely 'pays° the tax bill, the light bill and tite water' bill. Therefore it is reasoitabte'tn tit ppo°c that the merclants • on, that street are not going to add to thdse burdens by keeping their places open longer 'than business' warrants .it.

That, We bei ileve, is wliy there will be trtr,' 'early rF..x.xu..a.-,. Saturday, night closing in )eaforth. At the 'sante time, ,any suggestion, that the early closing movement was started in a spirit of interference or with a desire of .a minorityto -leg:. ielate for the majority, whetiv.e that legislation be in -the town's best in- terest or not, is criticism both unfair, and uncalled for. Any church body has as much right to . advance ;uge gesijions or propose restrictions, which in their opinion, would be :of benefit to the town or its people, as has a Board of 'Trade, a fraternal o.':,. ganization, or any other body men. In this case, we believe the method adoptedto settle, this question was the wisest that could be made. A frank and friendly discussion that leaches a decit:ion Inc.representative public meeting settles 'a public ques- tion more definitely than does a hole and coiner street controversy, whic't carried on indefinitely or evert for a season, .leads to no decision, but only to ill -feeling or worse, SCHOOL REPORT S.

The temptation is to sow all flower 'seeds outside as soon as the soil is dry enough ie. the spring not thinking of the cold frosty weather which is to follow, the re- sult being that many seeds ror in the ground without germinating and oth- ers germinate but soon after the Plants appear above ground they -re killed by frost. it is, then, desirable to have some idea of the kinds of seed which may be sown very ea ly and those plants of which the seeds should not be planted until th'e sail is warmer or danger of frost 1, !arty over. Among the hardiestannual ' plants grown for their flowers are Sweet Al- yssum, Calendula or Pot Marigold, Candy:titft, Cornflower, Coreopsis, Cc sinos, Eschscholtzia, Larkspur, Tanana, Nasturtium, Poppy; Virgin- ian Stock, Sweet. Pea. 'These may bo sown as soon as the soil is dry enou- gh. Among the tender annuals are Nasturtium, Zinnia, Aster, Stock'. Balsams, seed of which should not be sown until the soil 'heats up somc- tvhat and there is little danger of frost 'after the plants copse up. The temptation is to plaint Cacranitltns mar side too early, especially when .hey. have been inside all winter, but n most places in Canada they .should not be planted outside until near the and of I\tay or the beginning.. of Jure, Gladiolus conies may be planted as epee. as the soil is dry enough but Cannes and Dahlias should not be planted until claligel• of frost is about over.

The question of stage plays per- k formed in churches was raised in a recent police court case bi Manches- I ter, England, when it was argued that from time immemorial plays had 1 been performed in churches, says a writer iu Answers: In the Middle Ages the only drama 1 known to the mass of the people was that provided by the church. The 'plays, in which many simple folk took Part, were always sacred in character. They were performed at first in the churches and later on movable stages set up in the open air. I To -day there is only one lineal de- scendant of these picturesque old plays, the Passion Play, which is giv- ' cin every ten years at Oher-Ammer- gau, a beautiful li.tle village in the Bavarian Alps.
