Paul Peters inquired, coming in from the writing room. "pine!" said 'Bill. "There's some- thing- about this, part of the country that gets a fellow." "The girls?"

"She's got too many ether things on her mind to give mere man her attention." "That's' not the «way I heard •it!" Paul said, laughing. "How about laying off my girl„and giving Dian some fun? She's had darned little 'of it." • Bill searched Paul's face. "Don't tell Me you're giving up engineering for matchmakin•g," he said. "Of course not. But Dian's a good friend of mine,' .and I think she de-, serves a break.". "You mean seeing a lot of me would be a break for her?", "Sure. You can help by showing her a sort of rush while you're in Ardendale." Paul brightened. "Why don't you call her in the morning and ask her to show you the -the - lake where we're going to have the nic?" "My car's still out of commission." "Well, hers isn't." • Bill shook his head slowly. "Boy, yoinre full. of ideas, aren't. you!" he said. "Listen, Bill," Paul said,. "be a pal." Bill walked to the eleVator, "I've got some letters to write," he said. "See you at breakfast." „ All during the night Bill. kept wak- ing to think about Dian"'and Claire.

No longer are dresses Ian- ishly erolbellished with frills and flounces, but they look well and wear well. Similarly with recipes, they too have been streamlined, and with eq- ually satisfactory results.

Fritz came over, he'd have an easy time with them," sighed our men, regretting to leave the Ridge in, such insecure hands. ',ant their consolation was the thought that our doings t� come might safeguard the old front after all.. That night the Canadian Corps turned its back on the familiar Ridge which in had won on that memorable April 9, 1917, and about which its efforts had' beep. spent for a year and a half. This was our last look at the ridge, but • nothing was farther from our minds than such a thought. We believed that we might win a 'success in the south, drive the enemy back to his line of March, and return to our own Lens-Vimy front. But fate decreed otherwise and far better than •we hoped; -as -we •waited in the dusk of that still warm August evening behind the Lens -Arras road, conspicuous ter its border lines; of stately trees. 51 Appendix -The Riot At Etaples About the end of May, 1918, rumors spread of a considerable disturbance at Etaples among the troops return- ing ,from leave. By the story which reached us, a boxing match had tak- en place between sergeant of the military police and a private of a Scots rifle. regiment. The private had won and his success led to an alter- cation. Blows followed and soon the sergeant shot the mannwith a revol- ver This set the camp of transiente ablaze, and next 'day the men made a rush toward Paris Plage, 'a fashion- able watering place along the' beach from Etaples.., Between . them, and 0 byr',t-twher.

Possibly the w:ather for the day or the mOrrow is a first matter of interest; and perhaps the main headlines on the front page are scanned; but it is a pretty safe thing to say that women readers will turn very early to the ad- vertisements of local firms which advertise fashion items, food items, and other offerings related intimately to current, needs and desires. • Every woman knows what she wants --not perhaps in the precise form of color, or variety or manner, but certainly in the main 'matters of her desire or need. This applies to clothes, hats, shoes, food items, beauty preparations and many items pertain - ng to home furnishing. And so women are eternally on the ^watch for information -and for temptation! They are swiftly perceptive of the advertisements which present and propose the , things of their desire or need. , And obviously it is those retailers who advertise to them, who stand the best chance of their custom. • It is the same ,in the case of men. Few men buy impulsively. When they' leave home each day for their place of employ-ment, it is not just to get rid of their money. What they buy is mainly something whose purchase has been 'planned -clothes or other forms of apparel, hardware items, motoring sundries, shaving and other bathroom needs, plants, books, and so on. Men, like women, have been reading advertisements in line with 'their ripening desires and intentions, and +3f course they go in largest numbers, to those retailers who have been informing them and soliciting their custom. • All of us, instinctively, go where the light is, not where the darkness is. Advertisements are light, and so they attract the buyers to those stores which they illumine. • The way to get businegs is to ask for it. Can the truth of this statement be successfully disputed? And here is another equally true statement: The public buys from those who invite its custom. • THE HURON LEAN BROS., Publishers * .• • t 3.
