The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1947-06-05, Page 8Page 8 THE TIMES-ADVOCATE, EXETER, ONTARIO, THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE 5th, 1947
There appeared in this paper
some months ago an article en
titled, “Shopping in Exeter.” Some
of us clerks and, I think, some
store owners, too, rather resented
the article because the impression
given was that the shopper is the
only one who has a difficult time
and that life is quite rosy for the
rest of us. I have waited, hut in
vain, for someone to answer that
article and state our point of view.
Now. I’m no writer but I’m going
to try, anyway.
I think I can remember learning
at school that when expressing
one's opinion in writing for publi
cation it is proper to refer to one
self as “we." Well, that’s all right
but if in the article I wanted to
say, “I thought to myself,” (which
I should do and have it end there)
I would have to write, “We thought
to ourselves." and that sounds like
an awful lot of people. In order
not to confuse myself I'm going to
use the singlar form of the pro
noun just as I do when I’m talking
and if the editor doesn't want to
print it, that will be all right with
me and all the better for
of you.
Now, of course, I clerk
one store and at just one
of that store, so I asked other
clerks for some of their experiences
with shoppers. In order to keep this
narrative very simple, however, I >
shall pretend that everything hap- t in.
pens to me. (It usually does). The.
writer of the article I mentioned
at the beginning made some rather
pointed personal remarks. I shall
try to make all descriptions very
general and avoid personalities as
I consider
taste.
Perhaps
it but in
there is more to be done than just
standing behind the counter wait
ing for customers to come in. On
arriving at the store in the morn
ing I help to sweep and dust and
arrange the displays. This morning
I arranged what I thought was a
very artistic display at our small
wares counter. I had let my im
agination run riot and had created
with much time and thought a col
orful garden scene with colored
buttons, tape, pins, laces, etc. I
•was feeling quite proud of the re-
. suit when a lady with her five-
year-old son came to the counter.
“May I serve you, madam?”
“Y’es. I would like to look
some ribbons, please.”
I showed her all the ribbons
had and then we happened to look
at Junior who seemed to be taking
more than a passive interest in my
garden scene.
“Come here, Junior. Don’t touch
anything, dear.”
Junior remained.
I cut and packaged the required
length of desired ribbon and gave
the lady her change. We returned
to Junior.
“Oh, Junior, you naughty boy!

More Security
In the Future5
(A town Merchant recently received the follow
ing message from a manufacturer who supplies
him with a large percentage of his merchandise.)
“Knowing that for the past two years, at least,
retailers of our products have not been able to
supply the demand for our product. you might
think that instead of planning a further advertis
ing program, we would be spending money telling
our customers how to restrict the sales of it.
“But we are not thinking of today—-we are think
ing of the day when there will be more items of
our product than there are customers to buy them.
At the risk of aggravating the present situation
among our retailers, we are out to build a backlog
of customers for you when you will need them
and be glad to get them.
‘‘Right now you know, and we admit, that we can
sell all of our products that we can make --without
one cent of advertising, but we. feel that, actually,
every time we pay an advertising bill it is like
paying an insurance premium on an endowment
policy, thus creating a larger cash value each year
and more security in the future.”

How to buy even a yard of stuff

Huron Group Promises
Aid To Nursing Schools
Faced with a shortage of 2,9 0 0
nurses in Ontario, Hon. Russell T.
Kelley, health minister, outlined a
plan to re-institute training of
nurses in smaller centres when he
addressed 60 members of hospital
boards of Clinton, Goderich, Sea
forth and Wingham, Huron Medical
Association and Huron County
Council at a meeting in Clinton
Town Hall Monday.
Municipal and hospital officials
were divided as to whether girls
with matriculation standing would
stay in towns, rather than go to
larger centres for training. At the
health minister’s suggestion, they
decided to conduct a survey among
prospective nurses of the four
towns.
“I’m out for small places,” said
Mr. Kelley.
Under the minister’s plan, the
four I-Iuron County hospitals would
each supply four applicants per
year for training Reading to regis
tered nurses’ certificates. One com
petent instructor would supervise
training in all four nursing schools.
Mr. Kelley pointed out that it
each hospital board appointed a
trained nurse to instruct its nurses-
in-training and paid the instructor
51,600 a year, the cost would be
$400 to train each graduate. If
four hospital schools were served
by one instructor at the same sal
ary, plus an estimated $1,000 trav
eling expenses, the cost would be
only $175 per graduate.
He said it was an advantage to
have a supply of trained nurses in
smaller places, even though they
left the profession to get married,
because they were available in case
of emergency. When they went to
cities for training they were likely
to settle down in cities, he said.
Dr. R. Hobbs Taylor, M.L.A. for
Huron, pointed out an economic
factor in favor of girls choosing to
train in small towns. Living costs
in Toronto, London or Hamilton,
he said, were higher than in small
er “home towns.”
“I would think it almost impos
sible. for one teacher to teach 16
students at four different hospi
tals,” commented Dr. E. A. Mc
Master, of Seaforth. "There is a
lot of mileage to cover.” Mr. Kelley
replied that it was expected doc
tors and. trained hospital staffs
would assist with training.
One suggestion to bridge the gap
between small nursing school faci
lities and better-equipped city hos
pitals was for small schools to re
affiliate with larger ones. At one
time all Huron County nursing
schools were affiliated with Vic
toria Hospital. Goderich was the
last of the four to close and sever
its affiliation. “There is no doubt
the larger schools closed the small
er ones,” opined nr. Graham.
Mr. Kelley promised to investi
gate re-affiliation possibilities at
once. He stressed his plan was
“very definite that students will
get their *R.N7 ” at the proposed
smaller schools.

Will Disappear if
Floods Unchecked
County Engineer J. C. Monteith
and J. W. Murphy, M.P., for West
Lambton, toured the fishing vil
lage of Port Frank which suffered
extensive flood damage a few
weeks ago when the banks of the
river were cut back several feet
and many cottages damaged, and
1 eported that unless curves in the
Aux Sauble River are removed,
it would be impossible to save the
remainder of the village in the
event of another flood. >
Mr. Murphy said that he had ad
vised the 75 cottage owners at
Port Franks to obtain legal advice
with a view to petitioning Bosan-
quet Township to provide a proper
outlet to Lake Huron for the Aux
Sable River. This, he said, would
prevent further flooding which
would eventually wipe out the
entire settlement.
Mr. Murphy said a drainage ref
eree might be called in as appar
ently a great amount of the water,
carried by the Aux Sauble comes
from Huron and Middlesex
counties, which would likely , be
charged with some responsibility
in the matter.

Hello Brides-to-be! You have
been asking about what food to
serve your guests after the wed
ding and how to serve it. Yrour
plans will probably depend on the
number of guests invited to the
wedding. If it is to he a small fam
ily affair then you can arrange a
wedding breakfast or a buffet
luncheon or supper; if it is to be a
large wedding then you are re
stricted to a reception so arranged
that the guests can be served easily
and quickly. The time of day or
evening does not need to make a
difference unless you are planning
an early morning wedding to be
followed by a wedding breakfast
proper.
Here are a few suggestions which
will be useful:
Wedding Breakfast: Fruit cup,
Chicken and Mushroom Pattie, Po
tato Chips, Buttered Peas, Knot

and Tea.

wiches (open-faced, rolled, ribbon,
plain), Assorted Bouchees, Ices
