HONEST MERCHANDISING Poor Citizen Who Does Not Give Preference to lus Home Town (From Renfrew Mercury) It is the proud boast o! business that salesmanship and the whole process o! retail merchandising are on a bigber plane than f ormerly. *But there are abuses and excrescen- ces which from time to time prove buying public as well as to the better annoying and burdensome to the mercbandising elements. Our whole systenm o! trade and credit is fan too complicated to lay down the bard-and-fast rule that alI purchases must be made at home. or to charge the consumer with disloy- alty if he or she occasionally makes a purchase tbrougb the mails. Xýet wvbere quality. price and service are anything like equal, it Is a poor citi- zen who does not give mucb o! his patronage to home industries. Cen- tainly it is a !oolisb and unthinking consumer wbo will listen to the blandisbments o! i r r e s p o n s i b 1 e strangers and outsiders with infer- ior goods to sell. It neyer does to say that any one form o! merchandising is the best or only appropriate metbod. The local independent retailer. the chain store. the responsible merchandiser and the manufacturer witb local ne- presentatives wbo caîl upon the bousewif e. aillbave their place. There is a happy common-sense medium about these matters. A Iman's or a woman's bouse is a good deal o! a castle and should be treat- ed wth respect. Its invasion for business purposes should be under responible auspices only. The news-i paper Is a dlgnlfied way to reacb the Ipeople. THE ST. LAWRENCE WATERWAYS Valuable Information Presented to Canadian Club by G. H. Sedgewiclk, K. C., on Wldely Dlseussed Prob- lem. Men's Canadian Club held its first meeting of the year at the Bowman House on M onday, Nov. l7th. Nearly 100 members were present and were favored by hearing a very informa- tive address on the wldely discussed topic "The St. Lawrence and Great Lakes Waterways." Mr. G. H. Sedgewîck, K. C., was the speaker of the evening and wvas introduced by Rev. Geo. Mason. Mr. Sedgewick bas made a careful study of the mnany government and exxort reports on the subject and the address was an authentic account of the proJect upon which the government has un- der vonsideration. The address answered many ques- tions that the public have been ask- ing about the waterway and was il- lustrated with slides and charts. It described the existing waterway and the trafflc upon it. and the proposed scheme to make the waterway avail- able f rom the head o! the lakes to tide water to large ships without trans-sbipment. The Waterways project has been' described as the most important question facing Canada. What are the plans, and what will they cost? What will be the relation of the United States to the Waterway? Will Canadian sovereignty be in- fringed upon? The address answered these questions and presented a care- fully prepared study of the relation of a 27-foot waterway to the Can- adian economic structure. The speaker went into the traffic avail- able on the lakes, the importance of the wheat traffic, the relation of the Maritimes and the Prairies to the[ project. He also examined the com- petition between Canadian and American routes for the trafflc of tbe interior of the continent. The ad- dress simply stated the f acts and was flot a plea for or against the project. The problem of the waterway concerns: Ten million Canadians in- terested in strengthening their econ- omic structure and maintaining the national identity of the Dominion;- five million Canadians in the St. Lawrence Valley requiring power and transportation services: two millioni Canadians on the prairies requiring the cheapest and best transportation for their products to the markets of the world; two million Canadians on the seaboards interested in Central Canadian markets and in water transportation; shipping on the Great Lakes as great as that passing through the Suez and Panama Can- ais combined. and as great as that using the ports of Liverpool and London; forty-three million Ameni- cans interested in cheaper transpor-j tation f rom the interior to the coasts and to the markets of the world. The St. Lawrence - Great Lakes Waterway is an. engineering project to construct a twenty-seven foot navigation channel f rom tide-waterl to the heaci of the lakes by improv- ing the-St. Lawrence River. by com- pleting the Welland Canal. and by improving other channels. In its simplest, clearest termns, the water- way means the removal of the bar- riers between Prescott and MV.ontreal. and the smaller barnier in the upper lakes. The existing obstacles today are five in numnber: 1-St. Mary's River; 2-Detroit River; 3-International Rapids; 4-Soulanges Rapids; 5- Lachine Rapids. The crux of the problem lies in the St. Lawrence be- tween Prescott and Montreal. The rapids in that section are the great- est barriers. That section, now with only a 14-foot channel, is the centre of the problem. In its pres- ent state, it is a cork in the bottle. The scheme proposes to pull the cork; to create a channel 27 f eet deep and at the same time to devel- op 5,000,000 horse-power. The initial cost of the project to Canada is estimated at $103.438.000. Many estimates have been made also on the benefit that the population would receive by the increased power. It is estimated that there will be an increase of employees of 300,000. The population increase of 1,200.000, capital invested increase 2 billion dollars. wages increase $360,000.000, increased factories 12,000, increase to national wealtb $800.000.000. Such a development would assure beyond a possibility o! doubt the industrial future of the Canadian people. and would raise Canada, now fiftb indus- trial nation o! the world, still bigber in the scale. It would, accordlng to some estlm- ates. make the population o! the St. Lawrence basin almost equal to the minion. The posslbillty of sucha development cannot be llgbtly con- sidered or ldly dlsmlssed. The importance o! such a develop- ment to the wbeat-growlng areas and to the Maritimes is obvious.1 castle.
