Election Slogans
Believe it or not, the Ontario Tory
party has evolved, out of its own head,
and under its own steam a brand new
eleetorial slogan, To those who have
not yet heard it voiced or seen it in
its print dress, I now beg, with becom-
ing timerity, and without any con-
punctuous misgiving, to introduce it
to you, whoever you are, accepting, in
advance your delighted acknowledg-
ments with the gratifying feeling that-
my duty has been done.
The magnificent slogan, reads from
left to right "The Growth of Ontario
is Important" Must young girls would
gush, "Now isn't that just fine and
indeed it is just fine, and nothing but.
Ii, however, the candid opinion of even
seini-sapttet grownups is asked con-
cernieg it, I am much afraid the en-
thusiastic reception of it anticipated by
its builder will encounter disappoint- I
ment.
All political slogans suffer from
abridgement and this new one seems
severely tortured by its imposed con-
finement and its very limited availabil-
ity to enlargement of thought regard-
ing it. Read it again; mouth it over,
dissect it, and what have yott,T would
not advise you to attempt to digest it,
that would be asking too much of you,
"The Growth of Ontario is important",
yes, it might be, were it possible, but
it isn't, Ontario can only grow if it
annexes a part of some other province,
There arc growths in Ontario which ,
are being fostered by the Tory party,
but these are, without exception of a
weedy and pernicious nature and as-
suredly should not be encouraged to,
fertilized, Then what kind of growth
does our slogan desire developed. I
pause for reply, and I do not anticipate
a rush of etilighttnetit,
There are other two old slogans ,
which are being revived at this time.
Whether they were invented by the
Liberal Or Tory parfA I am not sore.
Anyway they both use them, which
shows what a mighty difference there
is between them. One is 'Now is the
tittle for all good Men to cane to the
aid of the pare, the other, "Litre and
let lift". Both. might be effective if
amended Utility. Alter the first to read,
"Now is the time for the party to come
to the aid of all good men, The second
to read "Live and Help, Live." How-
ever the one I prefer, the only really
good one is "Forward with the C,C,F."
My space I find is fully„ perhaps
awfully filled, But in conclusion may
I express the hope. that both our con-
testants will appear before us many
times during'the tampaign and state
clearly and fully their • views on the
issues at stake so that we may be en-
abled to make up our minds as to
which wewill ,vote for;
Yours truly,
Jas.. a Webster.
