Dcgchmani Tramn the Daily News of Fort lauderdale, Flarida, there cornes à. aad tale of the sea. There is a Moral inIi t for the people of the United States and Canada-per- haps for ail the world. Sea-guils in the old days at St. Augustine in Florida lived by catching fish. Then came the TaUVMP fleet, boats which spent IW thefr time catching shrimps. Thcascrap and waste tram the shrlmp shlps was thrown aver- board. It was manna tram heav- erl 80 fer as the guils were con- C«ned. Free dinners made work Uhnecesary. The gulls no long- or depended on their ability to catch fish. The younger genera- tiOn grew up without knowing -anything about the art. But wait, ther. la a sequel ta this tale, it has a tauch of sadncss, a serjous Massage for al mankind. Suddeniy the shrimp fleet mov- cd away ta more productive fish- Ing ai-cas located off Key West. The sea-guils wcre unable to ad- Just themselves ta the new situ- ation. While food was abundant the aider ibirds ncglectcd to teach their young oneg how to fish. Now the reefs and shores around êAugustine are lined with long nt i-ows of gulls, their dark d cyes turned praycrfullv out to sea, waiting, for the shrimp boats, which, sa far as man can PHONE 2148 1949 CHEVROLET COACH Dark Gi-cen.

Generation mter generation of guUls had learned to depmnd on the shrimp fleet lnstead cf on theu- own resaurces. The gulla of today are no different in physical make-up from the gulîs of yester- day. Thcy are starving because their welfare state bas melted before their eyes, they have hast their ability ta tend for themn- selves. Nature here presents a strange paradox. The guils were once the most independent creatures o! the universe. Nature had pro- vided them wlth a marvellaus capaclty ta take care cf them- selves, it was their own fault they trusted the wclfare state. They were caught by the phantom idea that they could get something for nothing. Thcy became dependent upan artificial conditions. Now wîth free food gone they are paying the price of their falles- They arc victims of adverse cir- cumstances, ai- is it their stu- pidity? The people of the United States and Canada like the sea..gulls cf St. Augustine are turning to the welfare state. There is as much value in it for us as it had for the gulls of St. Augustine. In the end it has failed theni, the costs were greater than the benefits. There is a moral ta this tale. It is a sad and pungent moral but one which should be driven home ta the people of today.

Aàdverising SAVES Money i Every once in a while somebody cornes into our office and starts a dis- cussion about the COST of advertîsing . . . flot only in The Statesman but in newspapers generaily . . . but, honestly, in our humble opinion advertising, particuiariy WEEKLY newspaper advertising, used inteliigently and frequentiy, doesn't cost money at ail. Rather it helps move merchandise faster, permits distribution economies, provides for mass production and mass ýa1es and ultimately lower prices, t with savings bath for the consumners, sellers, distributors, wholesales and manufacturers. t Take for example the classie case of the nationaliy-advertised light buib. It costs only one-faurth as much now as il did for an infenior anc in 1923. Again, in 1929 the average radia set cost $135 and only a fcw thousand people were proud owners. Now an average set seils for about $50.00 with awnership in the millions and so it gaes. Mass production, spurred on by judicial advertising, has brought prices down.

Whai Others Say (Peterborough Examiner) Ail gavernments are wasteful and extravagant, because ail Cab- inets are made up of men who are suddenly put in charge of more maney than they had ever previausly dreamed of. They do not get miuch of it for themselves, but they have great sums at their disposai. They hold positions of honour, and they are usually hon- ourable men. But as business ad- ministrators they are in the, in- tant dais, and their deputie ar e aten very little better.
