ADVERTISING is the public expression of a
master’s will and wish—his word of power.
We want to say this to the merchants of this
community:
You CAN make the public of this community buy
more goods from you.
You CAN teach the public new customs, new
tastes, new habits. You CAN make the public do
what it is not in th e habit of doing. Powerful
and persistent advertising has revolutionized
modern life. It sends people travelling. It has
made them photographers. , It has made the
motor-car a necessity. It makes women change
the'fashion of their apparel twice or thrice a
year. It selects the very food we eat.
A NOTE TO THE PUBLIC
- ♦Does not the publicly expressed will and iwsh of
the merchants of this community influence you in
your shopping? Do you not go where you are
guided? Are you not very attentive and respon
sive to the advert isments which appear each
week in the columns of “The Sentinel.”

promptly laid two charges against the

and the other for breaking the O.T.A.
by keeping liquor for sale. The accus

William Black, of Hay Township,
suffered a severely strained back, Mr.
Green, who was riding with him, suf
fered a fractured arm, and Mrs. Green
was badly bruised and shaken, <while a
3-month-old baby and Mr. and Mrs.
Chas. Chapman, of London, had mira
culous escapes, when cars in which
they were riding Sunday, Sept. 17,
collided on a narrow bridge, one and
a half miles south of Hensall, and
then rolled into a deep ditch, one on
top of the other.
The cars, a light one driven by Mr.
Green, and a heavier one driven by
Mr. Chapman, approached the bridge
from the same direction almost simul
taneously. Mr. Chapman, under the
impression that Mr. Green was stopp
ing, attempted to drive on the bridge,
just as the light car started up the
grade. The two cars struck at an an
gle, and the lighter one was rolled
into a ditch eight or ten ..feet deep.
The heavier car, out of control, fol
lowed, badly damaging the lighter
one.
Mrs. Green, with thought all on the
little baby, with great presence of
mind, threw it to safety as the car
turned over. With the other occu
pants of the car, she was pinned be
neath the wreck.
Mr. and Mrs, Chapman soon freed
themselves from the twisted cars, and
after some difficulty managed to res
cue the others. The injured parties
and the baby were taken to Hensall,
where they received medical attention,
by A. Whiteside, who happened by.
Mr. and Mrs. Chapman were re
turning to London from their Sum-
mei’ cottage at Bayfield.

GODERICH
Goderich was a port of call in the
1500-mile canoe trip undertaken by,
Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Storey, of Sar
nia, for their honeymoon, a journey
begun on June 3rd. and successfully
completed on September 15th.
The bridal pair leaving Sarnia,
their home city, paddled in an eigh-
teen-foot canoe, accompanied by a
dog "Happy" as mascot, through Lake
St. Claire, Detroit River, Lake Erie
and Lake Ontario to Trenton, where
they entered the Trent Valley Canal
system. Proceeding north they reach
ed Georgian Bay and Owen Sound.
From this point they entrained by G.
T, R. for Goderich reaching town on
Saturday, September 9th, leaving by
water the following day for Sarnia on
the last leg of their venturesome trip.
The canoeists, with tanned and smil
ing countenances, expressed themsel
ves well satisfied with their outing,
and strongly recommended the prac
tice of close association with nature,
as had been their experience on their
trip. The canoe was not overturned
once throughout the entire trip;
though buffeted on many occasions by
wind and rain no accident befell the
happy couple to mar the pleasure of
the outing.

PLENTY OF HARD COAL
The coal strike is ended. The anthra
cite miners and operators have settled
their wage differences on a renewal
of the old agreement until August
31st. of next year. The hard coal
mines are in operation now. Normal
production, it is {thought, will be
reached quickly, but the output is now
forty million tons behind last year.
Mr. Robert Oliver, of Listowel, just
recently back from Buffalo after in
vestigation prospects for the season’s
supply, is inclined to- be optimistic
and sees no reason why there should
not be an adundance of coal after
navigation closes. And with the ex
change practically eliminated, he
thinks the price will be lower than
that paid last year. Unless it has to
be delivered in small quantities, it
shouldn’t be higher than $14.00 a ton,
he says.
Fear of ’over production was what
concerned the mine owners last year,
and although the miners only worked
an average of six hours a »day for
three and a half days per week, the
output was 2,600,000 tons more than
required, Mr. Oliver stated, in em
phasizing what it was possible for
them to do if they went at it in
earnest.
Not until November or later, does
Mr. Oliver look for hard coal to come
through in any quantity. He antici
pates that there will be no suffering,
however, for there has been a great
demand for wood during the past few
■weeks and most people prepared
themselves for an emergency. This
will be an aid in relieving the problem
for those with a good supply of wood,
will undoubtedly economize in the use
of coal.—Listowel Banner.

Got No Sleep
But now the neuritis has gone,
the pains have ceased, the nervous
system is restored and the writer
of this letter pays a grateful tribute
to the medicine which made him
well.
Mr. John Woodward, P.T.O.,
Lucan, Ont., writes:
“It gives me much pleasure to recom
mend Dr. Chase’s medicines, especially
the Nerve Food. 1 was a sufferer from
neuritis for several years, and tried all
kinds of remedies, yet never seemed to
get any better. At last my nerves and
whole system seemed to give way
through not being able to get any rest
dr sleep .at nights for pain, which mostly
used to. take me in all parts of the limbs
and feet. My nerves would twitch till
my whole body would seem to jerk right
up as I lay in bed. Almost at the
point of despair, I decided I would get
Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food, which I did.
and after taking twenty Loxes I believe
myself almost normal again. I also keep
a box of Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills
on hand, and for the past year 1 seem
to enjoy my usual health.”

Mimico on September 5th., were ar
rested at Elmwood on Tuesday after
noon by Provincial Constable Rlo^d.
Since their escape the two lads made-
their way up to this part and have
been living on what they could steal
from farm houses and barns in the
neighborhood of Elmwood and Ches-
ley. They also entered a Chesley home
and stole a large quantity of pre
serves and other eatables, and on Fri
day night last broke into the store of
Ernest Prus at Elmwood and took a
number of articles including jack
knives, cigarette^, boots, caps, etc.
This escapade, however, proved their
undoing, for in entering the Prus
store through the window they had

had to remain in an old barn while
the injury was healing. While here,
their presence was detected and sev

them until the police arrived. They
were brought to Walkerton and taken
before Magistrate McNab, who re

William Reed, ex-reeve of Greenock
and former lime king of Brant, was
taken to the Bruce House of Refuge
last week to eke out the remainder of
his days.
In stature over six feet and weigh
ing 305 pounds, Mr. Reed was prob
ably the largest man in the county,
and certainly one of the biggest men
in fhis section of Ontario. Being also
at one time among the largest land
owners in Greenock, his fall from af
fluence to penury is one of the ironies
ofT’ate and shows how fortune may
take wings and flee.
Coming into Greenock in the early
days shortly after that township was
opened up for settlement, young Reed
took up land, and, being a Hercules
with the axe, he soon cleared up a
homestead and by dint of hard labor
and business astuteness he got into
his possession 350 acres of the finest
land in Greenock, all in ona block, sit
uated about four miles west of Car
gill. He took an active part in munici
pal affairs, and, after spending sever
al terms in a councillor's chair, reign
ed for three consecutive years as
reeve of Greenock. He was an ardent
politician, and his voice rang from the
platforms of South Bruce in the in-
terests of the National Policy and its
revered champion, Sir John A. Mac
donald. Big-hearted, and a “hail fel
low well met,” Bill Reed spent money
like water, and his name was a house
hold one among the sturdy pioneers
of the section.
His wealth deserting him, he quit
the agricultural game and 30 years
ago established a large kiln at Dun-
keld, wherp he sought to retrieve his
fallen fortunes by burning lime. By
his activities in this line he became
known as the lime king, a title, how
ever, that he earned at the loss of his
sight, for the work so injured his vis
ion tTfat, after being three decades in
the business, he became totally blind.
Mr. Repd is the father of 19 children,
12 being from his first wife who pass
ed away many years ago, and seven
from h;s second wife, who left about
a month ago to reside, it seems, with
her sons 'in the West. Eighty years of
age and blind, Mr. Reed tarried alone
n the home at Dunkeld, groping his
way in the darkness for two weeks,
when he surrendered to the inevitable
and went to the home provided by the
county that he himself helped to clear
and put on the map.—Bruce Times.
