Premier Ferguson is guilty of breach of faith depends upon whether an increase in the strength of beer which may legally be sold constitutes a strengthening of the Ontario Temperance Act, Wizen the plebescite was on he made the state - merit that if the Act was approved he ',would strengthen it. It is quest- ionable whether he should have made that statement inasmuch as he was asking the people to express approval or disapproval of the Act as it stood —not as it might stand after amend - dent. The "Pioneer" which is :tlie organ of the -Dominion Alliance, has admitted that the statement "won the day" for there were many people who were not satisfied with the Act as it stood who voted for it on the prom- ise that it would be strengthened. The Premier made no explanation at the. time as to what he meant by the ex- pression, hence the charges of breach sof' faith. The ardent Prohibitionist who has nothing to do with the en- forcement of, the Act cannot regard the promise except in terms of furth er repressions and sterner penalties. Police Magistrate Jones of Toronto, 'an' ardent 'Prohibitionist and an ap- pointee ,of the Drury Government, -runs up against the practical workings of the Act every working day and he 1But still he yell, "Yes tak her out, I do not wan de gard," I lAn see dem feller sweep de broom; For w'y I cannot tell; Dere is no' dirt upon de ice, And den .some feller yell- "Yes, hold her up" -say w'at he meaxs?

D..ETHQUAKE AS RECORDED ON SEISMOGRAPH The most interesting ortion;of the seismograph record of thew' earthquake felt in Canada and the United States; is where the tremors (became so violent that the delicate instrument could not 'keep up with irate at which: the .earth was trembling. The result was as shown in the picture. The needle started to splutter and jumped a portion of the record paper. : Toronto Observatory officials believe there were two ,earthquakes. The one which was felt In Eastern Canada and part;;. of the United States is believed to have been caused by the move-, Ment of an earth fault known' to exist near the.mouthof the Saguenay ;River; and another somewhere in the North Pacific. m e m TEE 111 11( 0 s b OP a BY CF.

An analysis of the opinion of the radio public as indicated by letters re- ceived at station WEAF New York, would indicate that the tastes of list-. eners are on a much higher .plane than one year ago. At that time jazz programs were preferred by about 35 per, cent, of those writing in. Janu- ary figures show that with over three times as 'many letters, coming in only 7,30 p. m.—Health talk. 5 per cent, favored the jazz music. •7.40 p, m.—Program by WGY' Or- The tendency is now toward classic- chestra. it songs. • - al and 8,r5 p. m.—Drama, "Just Suppose," The Brunswick hour of music none by`A.

Prizes arealso given to the listeners who can identify the art- ists and the songs they sing. All the: music is of standard variety.' • Schemes are now nearing eompleta- ion. whereby station WEAF, owned by the Bell Telephone Co., will pro- vide a rovidea program which will be broad- cast similtaneously in i8. cities. Stat- ions as far west as WOC, Davenport and south to Atlanta, Georgia, will be included under the new plan. Invest- igation by the Bell Company indicat- ed from a'number of their long dis- tance lines were idle every evening from 8 o'clock until ix o'clock and by adopting this plan, a number' of stat- ions will be able to reduce their oper- ating expences and better program will result. -At present station 'WEAF at New York may be rented by an or- ganizatioin at the rate of $roo per to minutes. According to the new plan all. stations using the service would contribute . toward the cost of the program furnished, but when any revenue was derived from rentals, 'sil these stations would share proport- ionately. Th.e. adoption of this sche-. ine would prove a boon to radio fans as it will'tend to clear the 'air. A new station has been opened at Hollywood, California at one of the put a few props undher the Q. T. A., largest moving picture studios in the an hilp the timpirince cause. Anny States.

He is'''the chap who gives you credit when you are financially broke, and carries youraccount until you are able to pay. Ile is the chap who gives you back yottr motley or snakes exchanges when 'you are not satisfied with what you have bought. He is the chap who meets you at the door with .a handshake and lets you out with a' message to the "kids" and a real "come,: again, goodbye." He is the: chap whose 'clerks live in the home . tow and spend their mon- ey with you and other local people. He is the chap whohelps support our churches and charitable organ- izatlons and talks fol.. the home town and boosts for it every day in the year. He is the chap who, visits you when you are sick, -sends flowers to your family when you die, .and ' follows your body out among the trees and tombs, as far as human feet may tra- vel wifti the dead. He is the home merchant - your neighbor—your friend -your helper in time of need. Don't r you think you ` ought to.. trade with him and be his friend and ,. his helper in time of .need? Don't you know that every dollar you send out of town for.merchan dise is sent to str4rigers-- to men who never spend a dollar here? You don't save 'mtteh, usually nothing, when you send your money out of town. And .don't you know that the growth and prosperity of this town and community depend very: largely !upon the success and prosperity of the home merchant? Out of town people fudge ottr town by the appear- ance. of our 'stores and the degree of enterprise shown by our merchants, 'And our home merchants cannot sue- - recd unless home folks give them lo» yal support. iltcnky—That sky -writer finally met his.
