more recently have opened branch stores in montreal hamilton and sudbury last weeks financial post eives particulars of the purchase of two large blocks of property in the heart ot calgary and an applica tion to the provincial railroad board for permission to connect the two by a tunnel names of the pur chasers of these properties have not been made public but it is accepted that the toronto deport mental store kings will build another immense store in calgary the cause of all those branches being opened is said to be the collapse of mail order busi ness ten years ago there was no need for branches as an immense volume of jbusineis was done by catalogue and the mails lately competition ho met this means of attracting custom and now com petition must be met on its own ground amnjton herald why keep on advertising if the same people always lived in the same place and kept on doing the same things then it might nofbe necessary to keep on advertising day after day month after month and year after year but they dont part of americas market dies every day and a new part takes its place families not only change their living places but they change their buying habits the pay envelope of to day is not spent exactly the same as the pay envelope of five years ago was spent nor will the pay envelope of next year be spent exactly as the pay envelope of this week one advertising man has these figures about the changes that take place m our markets in a single year 2500000 babies start their earthly careers 400000 high school studedts discover that a diploma is no opening sesame to a job 1250000 couples decide that two ean live cheaper than one 2000 000 families get the wanderlust i 100000 people shake off the mortal coil to play a bigger part in the markets of to morrow you must keep pi front of the public your wares of to day and every day yojir goods will not interest the public unless you bee to it that they do how can you do this without keeping on advertising forhes maga zinc an outofdate method in december of this year the rural mnil carriers of the dominion through thejr legal adviser anil officials of tjieir association will make protest to the iurtmastcrgcneral at ottawa nguinst the continu ance of the present conditions under which they work the system under which these men secure their positions is a most unfair one the routes an- let by the department lo the lowest bidder and as in most cases there is always a fresh recruit who is billing to underbid the man who has haduxpericnce at the work and knows what remunaration would b- fair for the work involved the result is that most of the rural carriers arc so poorly paid that after a tow years of service they are glad to discontinue the work the plan of letting the work this way is most unsatisfactory and it is the only branch of the gov ernment service to use this oldfashioned method ot employment the curriers are dissatisfied with their positions the government is not securing the best of service and men qualified for the position and it is time this method was discontinued the results of their efforts will be watched with interest tfrt olo ian i orfte grandmothers tcakcttlc a jilitiliahlc tax up in aylmer the license fee for hawkers and peddlers is 75 00 per year actons fee is only 25 00 and it seems quite difficult to collect this amount the trouble is that these fftfders arc in ond out of town before they are apprehended and when the authorities do locate any of them peddtutg their wares and demand- tho fco hoy usually geout ofr tovn mt oifce such are hivtype o people t wouldnt contribute twentyfive cents to any local enterprise the aylmer express in commenting on the fee says the sole intention of the aylmer council was to make those itinerant peddlers who come into town selling rugs dress goods etc in competition with local merchants who do their tuii share in paying taxes pay something worth while for the privilege then again it is a protection for our citizens who so frequently imagine they are securing barguins only to find later that the goods were shoddy let it be understood that the by law n no way interferes with farmers of the community selling their products within the corporation at an rnd all times it is as much for their protection thai the advance in license rates o outside hawkers and peddlers was made an irish view of urituth iahor and kuhsui good riddance to bad rubbish would seem to sum the majority opinion in the british isles about the decision of the trades union congress to end relations with the soviet unions it was not unex peeled and indeed remarks the weekly news of belfast a large labor centre the only wonder is thot it was defcrred for so long the congress is said to have burned its fingers budly over its friendship uith or rather its subservience to the dictators at moscow und this newspuper goes on to say now that it has shaken itself free from the entanglement its members must be asking themselves what they ever hoped to gam from the ulliancc two years ago the russian delegates were received with enthusiasm at the annual meeting of the congress at scar borough and this was followed by the formation of the anglo russian joint advisory council high hopes were built on this achievement ond some of the leaders pointed bright pictures of the future of labor when briton and russian should march in a solid body towurd on common goal but it wus just here that the trouble began russian und briton were not marching toward one common goal but toward two different and widely separated ones und while the majority of the british tradeunion leaders were unxious for the wciture of the workers the russians were troubled with no such anxieties editorial notes the border cities star man positively refuses take sides on the mcighcn ferguson scrap until has carefully looked over the- slow motion movies indian summer that season of the year when a nice mild spell ot weather sets in in lute october or early november alter a taste of winter has been experienced is usually termed indian summer many weather prophets contend that we never have real indian su unti after a inow fam hns hr- hurl and while the time may be of short duration they con lend it has never failed to appear indian surnmei is also known as st martin s summer st martins festival falls on november ii and indian summer is due about the same dote perhaps u little earlier or later as it may happen or even us laic ui curly december late summer weuther ot september and the autumn days of october arc not to be mistaken for indian summer but why is this return of sum mer like weather called lndiun summer j a pluusiblc derivation is seen in the old indian custom of hur vrsting torn in ths season another theory is thut the pilgrims gave it this name when they were told by the indmns that summer would return after the first spell of winter an r story has icthut the indians ljke some other folks were dilatory in get ting supplies rcudy for winter and this second sum nier season wus u special dispensation to them to enable them to prepare for winter after the hrst warning of the upprouehing season hud been given an interesting explanation is given in the notes if dr joseph doddridge horn in 17uj a student of the folklore traditions and history of the indians and early iettlcrs hcjruccs the origin of the name to the fact that the incursions of the savages against the white settlers which were interrupted by the arrival of winter were reiumcd during the period of vartu weather irually
