Mr. Kerr pointed out the differ-
ence between university and insti-
tute training: "In universities," he
said, "a chap gets 75 per cent
theory and 25..per cent pra_tice,
and may eventually become a de-
signer or administrator in the in-
dustry. In technical institutes the
student gets 75 per cent practice
and 25 per cent theory, and will
probably be the man who comes to
fix your radio. After all, everyone
can't be a manager, sand many peo-
ple don't want to be."

Called by the Merchants' Com-
mittee of the Chamber of Com-
merce at noon Wednesday to 'dis-
cuss means whereby merchants
could assiit in saving Hydro, a re-
presentative meeting attended by
more than thirty Seaforth merch-
ants agreed ' to close Seaforth
stores an'' dour earlier until fur-
ther notice.
Under the new arrangement Sea -
forth stores will close each week
day Monday through Friday, ex-
cept Wednesday, at 5 p.m. On Wed-
nesday closing time is 12.30, as at
present, and on Saturday evenings,
closing time will be 9 p.m. The new
times become effective next Mon-
day, October 4.
The meeting was called at the
request of. the Public Utility Com-
mission, who suggested that an
earlier closing hour would not on-
ly result in a power saving but al-
so would have the effect of bring-
ing home to Seaforth •and district
householders the extent of the em-
ergency that faces every hydro con-
sumer:
Mayor M. A. Reid and P.U.C.
Chairman A. Y. McLean, discussed
with the meeting the situation that
faced the Commission, During the
power crisis of last winter Sea-
forth's ,quota originally 13000 k.w.h,
was raised to 15,000 k.w.h. This
fall, despite a steadily increased
consumption Ssaforth's quota Sept,
1 was 8,850 kilowatt hours per each
24 hours, Monday hrough Friday.
Two weeks later the H:E,P.C. re-
duced its original quota to 8,250
kilowatt hours.
Mr. McLean poi nted out that
while the P.U.C. had protested the
quota and had been given verbal
assurance that an adjustment
would be made to bring it more
closely ii line with similarly situ-
ated tnunicipaltties'; siibstantial re-
duotions from existing consumption
would be required even if the
quota was raised. He urged the
merchants to impress upon their
employees and -rives the necessity
for continuous vigilance in the
home, since it was in the home the
greatest saving could be effected.
The meeting was informed the
H-E.P.C. had instructed the Com-
mission that unless an immediate
reduction was obtained, arbitrary
shut -offs for stated periods each
working day would be instituted.
This in effect would mean the lo-
cal Commission would not be in
a position to adopt shutoff periods
to local requirements,

GLASS FIRE
Absence of rain •durinng re-
cent weeks resulting in tinder
dry grass, was the indirect
cause of a fire that before,
was brought under control had
burned over nearly 10 acres of
pasture land Saturday after-
noon. Originating in the re-
cently acquired Seaforth dump
at the southern limits of the
town, the fire spread in the
direction of the Paul Doig bush
lot, and was only brought un-
' der control with the arrival of
the Seaforth Fire Brigade.
