W. JAMES, Editor. Support for the Band a Neglected Civie Duty A tawn witliout a band lbas a cIeficiencS ini its soul. Two major cancerns have caine juta prominence during the wvar wvhich are nowv claiming public attention. They are diet deficiencies which were fouuid basic ta the high percentage of rejectious ini the armied services, and the moral deficiencies ieading ta juvenile deliiquency. Henice " Nutrition " and the "Yonth ýlvemeuit" arc matters of which we hiear alnîost dailv andi somethin.g is beingy donc about it bath, nationally u locaily. We have seeln thut the public cou- science eau be aroused in matters of this kind when the facts are shown. But wve have not recaptured the full implication of the admonition that "'Mail calinot live by bread alone. " We are faiiing ta create fucilities ta en- courage aud inspire the moral valnes baunld up in an appreciation of music, art and liter- ature. These are allicd dcfiniteiy witli bath heatl and youth and ta negecet tlîern is simple, inexcusable folly. Ail of which I eads up ta considerution of wvhat this coînmunity has donc ta support the Bowmianville Band. One. of the first things a visitor asks iS: "Have you a band iu town? " Onîe of the first things children do wheu thcy heur marching music is ta shout, " Here cames the baud," and ont they go. Why? Simpiy ta feed their soul lu the sheer joy for music. At the recent banquet of the baud it wvas brauglit out that their civie grant is $50 per year; that 23 baud members worc the un- iform iu the late wvar. Now they are back helping their leaders who sacificed mudi ta keep the band alive dnriug thcexvan. There is a story back of it aIl that this space woni't permit telling. The fuet is that the grant amounts ta .1¼4c per capita per yeur. It-is given with perfunctory, ev,,en reluctant ap- proval, with property values rather than cul- tural values upperînast. Mauy iil agree that people holding ta this acceptauce of values wi1l neyer -et a harp lu heaven. The civie grant ouglit at least ta give the baud and these returiied men enougli for new equipmcut ta permit of public concerts. Thus tlîey conid finance and contribute ta thc moral cividcuds of the coînmunity. Advertising Reduces Costs Means Better Living Standards Saine Furin Forums reccîîtly f cil inito a failacy when their conclusions tcndcd ta agrec that advertising costs add up ta puy- iug more for whuat they buy.

Thc vicws will be assembled lar-ely bv accepting The Statesman as an adveriiîîg m ediunii whicli produets and services are listed aînd paid for by advertisers wvhîo seek sales among the subseniberS. By 50 localizing the argunient is thc better way, we believe, in clarifying views developed iii thc Forums. The general thesis in "W\Xho pays for ad- vertising ?" finds consuiniers believing tlîey do and the mendliant equally insistent that he does. The ultiniate fact is that effective newspaPer Evltiiigis self -support iîî Self-liquidatiiig and is absorbed nu a way that uither pays. Adventising actually leads ta mass productionl whieh lowens unit costs and goods reachi the cùnsunîer ut a re- duced price. As for the mierlant, advertis- ing increases lus sales and wvth langer turu- over leecaui make a larger profit and in fact acePt a narrow'er margif witli greatet' pro- fit than unden a iion-advertising palicy. These are geiieraîl pninciples capable of de- mioustration. We shall follow theni up ini a later issue with concrete examnies.

The Canadian type of political Socialist is too smart ta admit an intention ta take the farms away froin their owners for that would create too inuieli opposition at election time.

But any week- ard ly newspaper publisher can cx- adi plain very simply liow the prin- chz ciple of two-way trade is good for thr his community. f ln anc respect a weekly news- 1 paper publisher is an exporter. a n. His export pnaduct is advcrtising o! space affered for sale ta business sp( firms located in distant places. thE Moreover, the money that cames as in for this advertising is especially dei valuable ta the town as a whoie lar because it is "new" money, dollars 1 which otherwise wouid not find gi% their way inta the local stores, ste inta the municipal treasury or in- in ta any of the dazen and one other ai. places wherc tlie newspaper and trE its employecs spend money. c e< No win neturn for the cash ve whicli an outside business man cei spends ta advertisc lis goods in the weekly newspaper publîshed ha let us say in the town of Hister, a that advertiscr expects that a a number of Hister people wiil buy in what lielias ta seli. If tliey refuse as ta buy, the manufacturer is like- bu ly ta stop sending lis money inta ai that community for advertising. th He will use it eisewhere. t Foreign trade can be a vcny a: compiicated business, we are told. P NeverthclcSs, the homeiy illus- au tration o! the relatianship be- Nt tween national advertisifg inaM weekly paper and the buying of advertised goods by neaders of the paper is a very good parallel of- the nelationship whicl i wll have ta be estabiislied betweef Canada and any other nation witli whidli we wisli ta do business. The neference ta newspaper ad- vertîsing alsa serves ta show. how "4new" money, brouglit intoaa country or a community ini ex- change for goods or services whicli have been sent out, makes us more prasperous. The money wliicli the towf newspaper receives in the mail for nat anal advetisif g carried in its columns does not stay in thc office vauit of tlie bank. As men- tioncd pneviously, it is used ta pay wages ta local townspcopie, wlio in turf pass it on for their ucces- sities; or it is used ta pay tlie tax coliector, the cartage man, the coal dealer, the power campany, and ta lielp take care of ail the other services whicli a newspaper buys in town. Let there be an appreci- able increase in this money fromn outside, and the tawn again is a beneficiany. Mare advertising means larger papers, and larger .papers bring with themn the hiring of an additionai empioyce or per- haps an addition ta the plant. A 1 ncw cmpioyce may spend as mudli . as a thousand dollars in the town - during a year, al of it extra 1 weaitli for the community.
