THURSDAY, JULY 27TH, 1939 Editor Takes Editorial Holiday Our readers will recati that last August whiie the editer of The Statesman was at- tending the Canadian Weekly Association Convention at Vancouver, B.C., we struck the novel idea of having members of var- ious local organizations write the editor- jais during our absence. The idea proved te be a real success as it caused a lot of favorable discussion iocaily and raised con- siderable comment in newspapers across Canada. We have again adopted this plan and cemmencing next week the editerials will be suppiied as feliows: Lions Club - - - August 3rd Rotary ÇGlub - -* - August lOth Agrieulturai Society - August l7th Town Couneil - - - August 24th District W. 1. - - August 2lst t wiil be seen we have selected civie. public spirited and representative organ- izations which are a real force in the cern- munity, who are contri'buting valuable service in various ways for the betterment of the peeple within Durham Counity. Lt will be interesting te see the subjeets they discuss and the angles they may take ini presenting their views. There is ne re- strictions plaeed on the subjeets about which they wish te write se long as they are net libelous. We have already been warned frem several sources that the editor is geing to get a taste of bis own medicine for being tee criticai about certain mat- ters that are pet subjects ef his. Hie who criticises must expeet criticism! Hewever, we take this oppertunity ef thanking these societies for their greatly appreciated ceeperatien in being responsible fer the editoriais for the menth of August. We hope the centributers will receive as much pleasure and satisfaction in their ef- forts as the editor does. We are sure oui' readers will aise relish the temperary change of pasture in the meuiding of pub- lic opinion and the interpreting of current events. Public Utilities Proving Profitable lnvestment On another page in this issue wiil bc fou.pd a detaiied report of receipts and ex- penditiires of the Bowmanvilie Public Utilities Commission for the year ending 1938. This is an important statement as every îîat«WpayeIý is direetiy interested ini the success of this civie enterprise for we are ail stockhoiders. t takes a banker or a ehartered aceuntant te read this elabo'r- ate report with its many items and columns of figures te knew what it is ail about. However, we have picked eut some fig- ures showing the comparative operating resuits for the past two years which tel their ewn story in an impressive and un- derstandabie manner. In the Waterworks Dept. the inceme for 1937 was $17,050.56 as comUared with $17,- 189.29 for 1938. The expenditures for 1937 were $14,941.92 and in 1938 they were $14,- 461.76. - This showed an operating profit for 1937 of $2,108.64 as cempared with $2,- 727.53 for last year, being a satisfactory increase of over $600. In the Electrie Dept. the ineome for 1937 was $9429157 as compared with $88,637.41 for 1938. Expenditures ini 1937 were $80.- 490.04 and i 1938 were $81,641.341 This made an perating profit of $13,801.53 in 1937 and $6,996.07 in 1938 t should be erpiained the reductien in electrie income for iast year was due te a decrease of $5,- 444.57 in Commercial Power Sales. T1he parchase of the Utilities bas been a desirable investment as far as the munici- paiity is concerned. In the seven years' peaIen14deenurs -av benpad ff he had been and the people he had met during a very busy week. The final sen- tence ini his letter appealed te, us as being very signif iec t in these times of tureoil and unrest e where, but in Newcastle it's différent for Mr. Jearce writes: "And wherever we weJt we saw lots ef people ail at peace with the worid and one an- ether." We wonder if ini our daily duties and in our search for recreation and pîca- sure we really appreciate the privileges and liberties we ail enjoy. Then there was another thought that came te our mind as we read Mr., Pearce's letter. t was the debt and appreciation we, as publisher, anid yen, as readers ewe our country correspondents each week as they gather the news from their individuai com- munity and send it in regulariy for public- ation ini thet home town paper. These leyal and conscientious correspondents are net paid for this service. t is a labor of love they contribute as pulblic, spiritcd citizens, to the variotis institutions and neighbors in their community. To further impress our readers with the life a correspondent leads te supply yen with the local and intimate happenings you like te read, we reproduce Mr. Peare's letter as follows: Dear Editor: If my notes seerp written in a hurry and often rather illegiblc yeu wouldn 't wonder if yeu knew the littie time L have te spend en them. Last weck after the days'awerk I attended on Men- day evening a meeting of the Horticultural Society; Tuesday evening a meeting of Executive of Rickard Famiiy Pienie Assoc- iation; en Wcdnesday evening girls' seft- bail game; visited Mr. and Mrs. P"erey Brown and their extensive gardens and later attended an open air meeting then an inidoor meeting cenducted. by Saivation Army Crusaders. After that, went down te sec the people at the beach and the lake- side refreshment boeths; on Thursday even- ing attended seftball game and later an oen air band concert by Orono Gitizens' Band; Friday afternoen visited'homes in the Lake Shore distirct with Rev. R. E. Morton on chureh business; ini the cvening jeined other speetators in watcbing the ladies bewi and later attended a picture show in the Conimunity Hall; aisoe carlier in the evening made a tour of Postmaster Gee. Jamieson 's acre of gardens with their vegetables, their big patch of Scotch thisties and their three theusand or se gladioli, and on Saturday evening jeined the crewds in Newcastle deing their wcekly shopping and innocent gessipping, and saw Scott Pollard cuttinR up and parccliing meat at Fiisher's in succession te Rebt. Duck, Sr. wbo is taking time off te rest and recuperate. And wherever we went we saw lots of peeple ail at peacewith the world and one another. The Modern Drug Store The modern dmug store is an establish- Meînt much different frem the apothecary's shop of a generation or se ago. Its contents then were aimost wholly confined te rew upon row ef interesting jars and botties containing ail manner of drugs which the skilled chemist woùld compeund int o pre- scriptions for the sick. How different is the modern store today. ts shelves are stocked with patent medicines of ail kinds, net made by the apothecary himself, but by manufacturers. Then, tee, there is a large supply ef cosmeties for the ladies and shav- ing soaps and face lotions for the mnen. There are tonics of varions sorts, magazines, tobaceos, cameras, candies, chinaware, books, knick-knacks, and in some stores a soda fountain and lunch ceunter. However ut the back ef the shop the druggist works expertly, pouring and mixing medicines, the prescriptions for which are given him by local deetors. In our druggists we place our trust and our faith for the correct ameunts et each compound. We believe in him,» knowing that he has been exper-tly trained for his mest important service te us as a community. Pcrhaps the drug store bas changed - but neft the druggist. In Bewinanville the three druggisis are the mest consistent advertisers of any group et local merchants. They meet city prices and thus contribute in a large measure te holding and drawing business te this tewn. Other merchants who are everiastingly complaining about business might do well te adopt the advertising policy of the drug- gists which is preving se successful and beneficial te beth druggists and their eus- temers. Net very long ago a citizen in discussing this very subjecet of advertisixng made thc comment, "I have found eut by experience that when a merchant advertises bis goodsi people expeet tee much, and their home tewn cernes se far short of their ideas that they continually express dissatisfaction. That attitude dees net help a particle. Lt makes people think that improvement and progress are hopelees. The people who say 'Lt ean bc doue,' whcn any practicai. plan isc offcrcd, encourage every good moveinent.
