The Brussels Post, 1929-12-11, Page 5Just Listen ... and you'll want no other set Atwater Kent Screen -Grid R adjo THIS new Screen -Grid Atwater Kent Set gives you everything you possibly could want in a Radio—at a moderate price. Tone ! 'There is no difference between listening to this set and listening at the broadcasting studio, Power ! Distance seems to make no difference, Local stations and stations far away come rolling in as easily and clearly as though; they were just outside your door. Select the station you want -•and there it is. Make it louder, make it softer, as you please, If the music or speech should stop for a moment, the set is so quiet that you couldn't tellwhether it was on or off—if it weren't for the light in the dial, Just listen here to a few bars of music, and you'll say (as most people do), "That's the set I want ! That's what I call a radio!" Robt.

A LOCAL NEWS A Mark to Shoot at Boys. From arrival in Canada as a youtl, of 17 to the position of finance min ister 27 years later is the record of C. A. Dunning, and it is one which should prove an incentive to all young Wren. All in the Same Class Sir John A. MacDonald put cock fights, horse slates and elections all in the same class as being de- sperately uncertain and the Farm- ers Advoctate suggests that the stock market might well be added to that list. Are You One? A certain Missouri editor refus- • es to publish obituary notices of people who, while living, failed to subscribe to his newspaper, and gives this pointed reason : "People who do -not take the home town paper, are dead anyway, and their passing away has n0 news value." Rod and Gun Sold An old -established institution, the outdoor life magazine, Rod nd Gun nand Canadian Silver Fox news is leaving Woodstock, according to an- nouncement from that city. W. J. Taylor, well-known publisher an- nounced the sale of the magazine to a new company, Rod and Gun, Limited, with headquarters at Gar- den vale, P. 'Q. near Montreal.

New Auto Markers In connection with the issuing of 1930 license markers which will commence in another month, it is stated that several changes will be +nada hi the plates. The coloring • will be the e'nic, black letters on 'r white ,ground, which will be done by the Canadian color Type conn- bany, but the plates will be shorter and of heavier make owing to the many complaints received due to the comparative vase with which 1 'hose now in use can be dainagcd if struck by the bumper of another' ear. Each county will have its speri-' int letter and no more than five ialigits will appear on any one Inc- I leer this inclusive of the letter. Tt Is stated that, ruder the contracts, the province will pay 12.9 cents per pair of markers. r -- WI:DNHSDAY, 11EC. l Xth, 1009, Brussels 'Buy -at -Home' Campaign Community l3uying Directory and Business wide The Merchants a+o'd Business men represented below are co-op'erati'ng in an effort to prove to the residents of the towll and surrounding ,community that values equal to any of the larger teaks or 01(155 play be procured • total stores.
