Bowrnanville Stores WeIl Stocked to Serve Christmas Shoppers Spiendidly and artisticaiiy ar- ranged windnw displays together with the smart advertising iay- out appearing in The Statesman, among the ei:îerprising merch-: ants o! Bowmanyille, mean pre- cisely what they are caiculated ta mean: That back of them on shelves and in show cases are ar- rayed the gode ta back them up. Goods the equai of any as to quai- ity, style and price ta be found anywheme across this country, and that includes the cifles as weli. And back o! this quality merch- andise is another important factor; genuine service by clerks and management wbo are classed as personai fiends, whose word is a guarantee of satisfaction. These are not casual, laudatory statements but thase adduced from personal visits and investi- gations o! the advertising man- ager of The Statesman whose bus- iness it is ta assure accuracy in advertising and compare values here wîth those elsewhere. There bas been a tendency in small towns ta believe that "bargains" may be obtained in cities which are genuine savings. Considerîng the expense involved as weli as the time and risk and the fact that usually any guarantee is hacking, this theory is in the na- ture o! a hopeful fiction. In spite of reported shortages it can be shown right here in Bow- manvilie that both current and Christmas stock in stores that advertise is in volume, price and quaiity, suffîcient ta supply the most exacting wants. Why go elsewhere ta, shop? Wby not boost the home town merchants who contribute heavily ta local taxa- tion, take part in ail worthy com- munity endeavors and look far forward in their buying ta accom- modiate their neighbors and friends? It is time something like this was said. And as the season advances inta the festive period o! Christmas it is hoped this re- minder will serve the purpose in- tended . . . ta revive a real com- munity spirit. It is difficuit ta say which may be most mischîevous ta the bu- man heart, the praise or the dis- praise of men.-Mary Baker Ed- d'y. To change the system without changing the people is like chang- ing your shirt without taking a bath. Basketball Stars' Feature Camne Here On Saturday Night Coach Wait DeGeer leads bis Bowmanviile Intermediate Bas- ketbali Team onto the gym floor at tbe Higb School, Saturday night against one of the strongest ag- gregations in Canada, the Central Y.M.C.A. squad, Toronto.

Among the Centrais are stars formerly coached by Mr. De- Geer at Simpson Ave., members or the church now in charge o! Rev. W. F. Banister. The players include Ed.

The Bowmanville team are practically the same as last year save for the addition of Bill Dad- son, Ed Hooper and Dr. Bill Rud- ehl who have rounded into form in several weeks ai practice.

Landing at Goose Bay,, New- foundiand, the air station was found ta be a remarkable est- ablishment set up by U.S.A. en- gineers and wbere the R. A. F. crew readily found their way ta the very superior dining accommo- dation o! the Yanks. The next hop was ta Greeniand, where up a narrow Fjord, a less inviting air-field was found amidst a: bar- ren waste. The speaker describ- ed how in navigating this hop, the plane "Iced Up" and equip- ment made by the Goodyear Comn- pany performed efficîently in de- îcing. But many planes were lost over this northern waste, neyer ta be heard f'rom again. The Kee-Bird Iceland was approacbed and the ,excellent U.S.A. field located by radia instruments. The visit ta Reykjavic was described and the beatless Nissen buts used by air- craft crews. The speaker then switched ta the gramaphone out o! which came a description o! thxe peculiar Icelandic bird that spiraied up thousands o! feet, then volplaned ta the ice-surface ta level off using its glutius max- imus as a brake ta end up with a "Kee-Risto it's cold." It was called the Kee-Bird s0 hearers were told. Mr. Dpreen switcbed back ta formai speech ta tell o! the trip over the North Atlantic, the land- ing and the briefing prior ta tak- ing off for Portugal, Algiers and the desert hop across North Af- rica where war-twîsted machines were seen rusting on the ground. The crew reached Cairo, took in the pyramids, that even smelled o! antiquity, the climb ta the top or what have you. Here was found another bird, the pepper- eating Ouah, that flew backward ta cool off mucb in the nature o! the Kee-Bird o! Iceland. Iraq and PBagdad came next, wbere, strangehy a Canadian Black Horse oasis was found. Then on ta Kerachi in north west India. Here were featured the dozen course meals, the swarming beggars, insolent boot-blacks who smeared grease on R.A.F. sboes and had their beads cracked. And souvenirs were everywhere with peddlers crying their wares. It was new experience, exotic, oriental. The trip back was aven the same scenes but from Cairoaa single bop landed the crew in French Morocco and it was strange ta see snow capped maun- tains rising from the bat, arid desert. Daj&ar, west Africa, was eached wNfere- guards had ta protect the red flags on runways fram the tbieving blacks. Over the Equator Fhying the South Atlantic at night was a beautiful trip later taken dozens o! times, aiways witb a new thrill. Landing at Natal then on up ta Beiim, bot and sultry at the mouth o! the Amazon, and as welh featuring the souvenirs peculiar ta the dis- tricts. Came a stop at Trinidad with a glimpse o! Devil's Island, former French penai colony. At 'i rinidad was found the native praducts, rum and sugar, its cbeapness notable over the ex- part price. Home The final hop encompassed Nasseau where former friends were hooked tip prior ta com- pleting the last link in the cir- dle back ta Montreal. The speak- er tohd briefly o! a meeting witb sbort-wave fans at a Rotary gatb- ering in the U.S.A. and the pas- sibility that a Rotary short-wave clique might develop. If sa it may be passible at eome future time ta have a practical demon- stration at the Club. Ross Spitt introduced bis cal- league Mr. Doreen* and thanks were extended by Fred Bruce. It was disclosed that the speak- er, barn at Belleville, educated in Oshawa, jained the R.C.A.F. and served four and a bah! years with the ferry command. A!ter duties wbich taak him around the globe many times, he bad set- tled in Bowmanville.
