Mayor McLean. of Actoii,, in his in-
augaral address referred to the ser-
vice rendered the (wined and town.
by the Press. Unquestionably the
hcwspapersdo render a service that
is seldom recognized. Ione are more
loyal or more energetic boosters of
the town than they, and while at
times there may be matters h Coun-
cil that invite eritieism, in the gener.

questions are 'treated froth a helpful

Gratifying to Commission
The following letter was received
by Mr. W. A. Galbraith, secretary of
the Public Utilities Commission,
Wingham, and is, we believe, selfex-
planatory and very encouraging.
Dear Sir:—
We take pleasure in enclosing a
copy of the Wingham Hydro opera:
tion for 1924, which, you will note,
shows a net surplus of $3461.91 in ad-
dition to. a provision for local depreci-
ation of $1go8.00, which we are sure
must be very gratifying to your local
Commission and to the Hydro con-
sumers in Winglsam;
The actual cost of Power to Wing -
Lara on the books of this Cornrniss-
iori was $1305.64 less than the amount
of the interim bills and this has al-
ready been deducted from the cost
of Power in this report. A . credit
memo for this will be sent you in due
time and will beapplied against your
current Power bills, thus materially
increasing the amount of cash which
will be reported in your ' :balance
sheets during :the next few months.
Yours truly,
R, C. McCollum, Auditor Municipal
Accounts.

Profitable Publicity
The merchantu who doesn't believe
in publicity soon gets to be a back

public organizations which rely upon
the interest the public takes in them.
for their success. A good many local
organizations overlook the opportuni-
ty that might be freely theirs to get
a lot of good publicity throtigii the
local newspaper. For instance secre-
taries of fraternal organizations
might hand in lists :of newly elected
officers for publication without having
to have this information: pried out of

a lot of happenings connected with
various organizations that are of the
