"I would not be in business to -day for the aid of printer's ink," ie the willing testimony of one of Ori1- ha's most successful merchants. -Orillia Packet.. y, !p 4, I 1 It appears that Andrew Hicks, M, P.P.•, didn't say that .nybodY had tried to buy the U, F. 0, members' but only gave warning that nobody 'need try as they . AeoUldu't be bought." , e * * * Hon Mr. Biggs advocates the two- -track road. It would save one the trouble of turning out when meeting :another vehicle but were afraid it would just be another excuse for .speeding. An editor is the Republican choice as candidate for the presidency„ of -the United States. If hes elected we'•hope he'll insist upon "editing" .a lot of stuff' the newspapers over .there publish, things that ruffle up 'the temper of Canadians. * * * * The .United Statesdoesn't seem to ',.be able to get away from: a "writing chap" in its presidental campaign. President Wilson has a world-wide reputation as a note -writer and Sen- :Ator'Harding, the Republican nomin- ee, is the editor of a newspaper. * * * * Five Owen Sound youths fell in dap -'with the glamor of life in :a -circus and went off with the Sparks' people, who recently showed there. 'They stuck to it as far as Guelph -and then decided there was "no place like home," and struck for the .-"Sound City." Few walks of life •are just as romantic as they sortie - times seem to the outsider and a cir- cus always has a peculiar attraction -for a boy. **** "Those who talk, as some are now 'talking, about `beating the new tax- -es', display a curious kink in their moral conception of citizenship," says `The Simoe Reformer. "To pay taxes is one of the primary duties which 'one owes to one's country To seek to evade this•duty at any time is to play the quitter in respect of one of the most important of responsibili- •itiee to the state. But in these times, when heavier .taxation is in reality the 'mopping up' process of the war, the tax evader plays a game not far removed from that of the man who :funked in the course of the fight. Let there be no mistake about that. The taxes recently imposed by the 'Drayton budget are to wind up the part we took in the late war. To help Pxy' € ni, therefore, is as tmuch a duty upon Canadian citizenship • as e. was the obligation to contribute one's 'best between 1914 and 1918. And the man who, either through meanness, •or a 'smart Alec' idea of things, or a wrong conception of public duty, tries to evade them, is in a degree as much of a slacker as the man who ,could not be found when the ca]1 was to go 'over there'.
