In.,some cities the civic employees
have a inion so`strong that eldern}en
have to sit uj> and take notice. The
poor old ratepayers not +beingor-
ganized' have to it bads and. take

If -you .wis;h to be generous, • say
that the New Jersey' Police are zeal-
ous but inept and unfortunate.
The Republican selection . of Pre-
sident IH;oover and the framing of a
platform, was the work of President
Hoover himself; through the adinisiis-
tredve machine which he ,controls.
No one else has a look -in if a Presi-
dent wishes a' second term. The plat-
form se far as it covers the prohibi-
tion issue is a skilful attempt to do
what he slid four .years ago -to hold
or gain Democratic drys . without
losing' Republican wets. Two words
' enabled him.to do this in 1928. When
he referred to the Volsteacl aet as a
'"noble experiment," the • drys saw
the ward "noble"; the wets saw•the
' word "experiment," and • he took
both into camp. It was the wets who
were deceived. Time alone will tell
• whether' they will gain anything by
his new policy of re-ststbrnission, but
it looks now as if he has disappaint-
ed the drys while antagonizing the
• repealists in his own party, whose
delegates went home disgruntled
from the cut-and-dried preponderance
at Chicago.

A scientist says man was origin-
ally jelly.. Hasn't changed much in
some cases.
While it lasted, the slump of 1020
was no slouch. A salesman wired
his house, "Cancel immediately all
orders sent in last peels." The reply
was, "Can't cancel immediately. You
will have to wait your tura."
The Democrats are now trying to
outdo their political opponents in
framing an agreeable platform and
in clisipays of enthusiasm for their
candidate. The exhibition of Re-
publican' enthusiasm was a disappoint-
ment, It lasted twenty-seven min-
utes, but it was a labored effort sup-
plemented by devices for noisomak-
ing and for theatrical effects. Par-
ading through the aisles, snatching
(or snitching) standards, cheering,
shouting, howling -all to impress the
public, and deceiving no 'one except
themselves. The system. is organiz
ed. But real enthsuiasin is spontan
eous. The .iisarrufaetueed article is a
pale counterfu:lt. It 'sounds tinny,
tastes synthetic and looks silly.
r1r-ea!
At a recent denominational 'con-
vention,' it was reported that many
clergymen are in the unhappy poste
tion .af not being able to .Feet their
obligation's on the meagre stipends'
they now receive, •and a proposal
was made" that ministers receiving
$2,000 or more should contribute a
tenth $o help:' out their less fortunate
bret1nen. There is' a shrinking in
congregational and general "contrijhu-
tions,, and Church authorities are ex-
periencing the same difficulty .as
governments in balancing their' bud-
gets because the depression plays
few favorites, and when it 'hit"s the
pew it hits the pulpit,
It may be soone satisfaction to
know that theta was a time when
conditions were much gorse and pas-
tors worked zealously and devoted-
ly on beggarly pittances. Thirty
or forty years ago, ministers of the
gospel were scandalously underpaid,
but there ha been a, wonderful im-
provement since then. In those days
they used to tell of a preaoher vase
was offered an increase in salary
but declined to acce'ps it., He was
getting $400 a year.1 His 'congrega-
tion offered to inrcease it to $600.
He refused the increase, on the
ground that he had trouble enough
collecting the $400.
People were poorer in those days
but they were better church -goers
and had more respect for the cloth.
They were not in a position to be
liberal, with cash. Coppers were
more numerous on the collection
Plate than nickels or dimes and a
quarter would create a sensation and
establish a reputation for someone.
But they were generous in other
ways toward the pastor snaking up
to, some extent at least, for the in-
sufficiency of their cash' donations,
To -day, clergymen are in a much
better position, In most denomina-
tions the minimum salary is 'fairly
high, and many ministers draw sal-
aries that compare favorably with
the incomes of, other professional
seen. But even minimum salaries,
and wages fixed by agreement, have.
to yield in such times as these to
the exigencies of the treasury, and
it is a good sign when the more
highly favored are willing to help
out those who have to rely upon
minimum salaries.

TUG SPLITS AND SINKS NEAR
BAYFIELD, CREW RESCUED
The Government dredge No. 1, en
route front Sarnia to Kincardine,
broke in 'two and sank in Lake Hu-
ron 14 miles south of Goderich on
Thursday afternoon. The crew had
a very narrow escape, but all hands
were saved.
The dredge was being towed by the
tug Max L and accompanied by the
tug Peel, towing a coal barge and
two scows. A high sea was running,
driven by a strong northwest wind.
The dredge had shipped a let of
water, which caused her to List badly,
and the seas were washing over her
decks. A particularly high wave hit
the dredge and the water in her holt/
shifted to the bow, causing her to go
down bow first and split in two amid-
ehips.
Capt. Convey and crew of 11 jump,

were picked up by the Tugs Max I.
and Peel. The Max L made Goderich
with part of the Brew, and the tug
Peel stood by about a mile offshore
with the balance of the dredge crew,

ped sufficiently to enter port safely.

aleir
Not a .week passes that you are not being canvassed
by representatives of nationally -advertised products
to stock and push them, and to give them good
window and counter displays.
Their representatives tell you of the large stuns of money being spent in metropolitan daily
newspapers and in nationally -circulated magazines Like "MacLean's," "Chatelaine," "Canadian Home
journal," "Canadian" and others, to create and maintain consumer demand, and they try ]tars/ to pereuade
yoti that such "remote" ,advertising will surely create and sustain largo local. demand.
It is admitted that it is advantageous to you
and your customers for you to stock. nationally -
advertised products, but such products will sell
faster if they are locally advertised, in this
newspaper, in addition to being advertised in
nen-local publications.
There is no good er sound reason why a na-
tional advertiser should not do local advertising
in this newspaper. You will be told, when you
say to the representative of firsts calivassing
you to stock and push Isis firm's product, "05,
we could never afford to do local advertising.",
Wihat he really means, when he says suck words,
is that .he doesn't .expect large local sales. If
he did, then he would see that these local sales
can provide a sus. of money adequate to main-
tain a local advertising campaign.
Why should you help a national advertiser to
develop his business in the territory covered by
the circulation el this newspaper without ad-
vertising co-operation from him?
You provide local distribution facilities for
manufacturers of branded products, and your
value to them is recognized. Why, then, should
these manufacturers not assist yoti to sell these
goods, if stocked by you, by a series of local ad-
vertisements, perhaps carrying your name as
local distributor, published in this newspaper?
The more frequently and vigorously you present your point .of view to national advertisers, direct
and through the representative who calls on you, the .pore surely will you .persuade them to accept it.
