from the wartime price and trade board division of simplified prac tice which we think contain one of the moat sensible idea yet evolved to beat the shortage of essential mat- trial with which many manufacturers are faced today this idea evolved from the fact that inventories of rarny manufacturers contain item for which they have so use at the present time perfectly good merchandise lor which someone else probably has a pressing need jthe main object of the plan is to redutribute these foods in order to do this the wartime prices and trade board is making a liat of all mch dead merchan dise and they are also making a list of the requirements of those who want thing they cannot get today when the lut are built up it will be their job to get the buyer and teller together the first step in the plan it of course to have the manufacturer list the merchandise for which he has no present use for this purpose a poit card has been att ached to the circular the board ha sent out which when sent in will enable interrsted parties to obtain full particulars of the scheme hes all right k i last week mr hepburn startled the country with hi sudden resignation as premier of ontario speculation ran rife and all manner of wild theories were put forth a hidden motives for the suddett move needless to say these uninformed commentators saw in hi hidden motives opportunitiea for personal ad vancement but the statement made by mr hepburn last thursday explaining his reasons for stepping down from the premiership to the position of provincial tre asurer dispelled nil such shadows from his action rather than jump at the snap of the whip of a partisan section of the liberal party which was urging to call an election when the time seemed most opportune he resigned out of a conviction that in time of war such a move would decidely not be in the best interests of the people mr hepburns career as premier of ontario has not been a smooth one on many occasions he has been criticized and justly so but his detision to put the welfare of the people before that of the party should go a long way towards reinstating him in the good graces of his severest critics s a new discovery f no one would like to say that war is good for a country yet strangely enough it seems to act as a spur to the people to invent and discover things they would never have dreamed of in time of peace at the mom ent the roost impressive instance of this is the recent discovery in northern quebec of a large deposit of molybdenum a rare metal used to harden steel just when the united nations were experiencing on acute shortage of this material the deposit was found within 1 500 feet of a site where many thousands of dollars were spent in the first great war in an unsuccessful attempt to discover the metal test holes were drilled in the urea several month ago with no signs of success but because of the urgent need for the ore to moke metals for toughening ateel more and more drilling was done until finally a deposit was found daytime shopping we still have to become used to the idea of wed nesday night being a closed night in town it seems strange to walk down town and meet only the occas ional person on a darkened main street however people are now apparently making saturday afternoon the time for going to town for since the new early- closing bylaws went into effect weve noticed main street is just twice as busy saturday afternoon as it ever wat before apparently therefore we are not alone in thinking it a good idea for those who can to do their weekend shopping saturday morning or afternoon to ilia stores wffl be less crowded for those who are ab- aohtfery unable to come into town until evening raember news items are not rationed send em in 125th milestone
