Every man, woman and child is a daily wanter of many things, most of which have to be bought from some retailer. But to sell, the seller must go to the market. It is sadly wrong if and when the seller waits for buyers to go to him. This means that the retailer who wants to supply many buyers must take his merchandise, in a figurative sence, to where buyers are assembled. And the assembly place of buyers--men, women and children--is their newspaper. In the form of advertisements retailers display their wares. Every advertisement can be likened to a stall. These retailers' stalls get a close inspection of buyers. They are scanned to see if they show things of necessity or desire, and when the offerings of these stalls are in accord with buyer's wants and needs, then sales are made. The retailer who loses out is he who has no stall--no advertisement at this place of assembly. His absence from the market-place represented by the newspaper and its advertisements is advantageous to those who have advrtisements in the newspaper. The buying public wants its buying transactions made as easy as possible. It wants its time and its steps saved. It likes to find, in the comfort and peace of the home, what sellers have to offer. In the home decisions are arrived at. Women and others plan their shopping and their purchases in advance. Their newspaper is their informer. Retailers who neglect to provide buyers with information in the form of advertisements in our newspaper miss many sales. It is never economy to be silent about what one has to sell. NEW CANADA MOVEMENT j Brighton,. Ont., Monday, Jan. 7th, 1935 To the Editor of The Express: . In view of the-fact that enquiries have been made concerning the X. C. M., I am submitting the following, entrusting it explains satisfactorily our programme, and hope to hear directly from a number of your readers. The N. C. M. presents an unprecedented opportunity for home study courses on subjects of vital interest to young men and young women of Canada. Under the direction of the N. C. M., and working in coalition with the Workers/ Educational Association, and anticipating the sponsorship of tho Ontario Department of Education, your active interest and support are heartily solicited. The N. C. M,. is non-political, non-sectarian, and in fact of necessity, is not and never will become a class movement. As such the N. C. M. is heartily endorsed by some of Ontario's most level-headed, best thinking men, a few of whom are as follows: Dr. Lattimer--McDonald College Dean Shaw--Universitw of Saskatchewan. Mr. Jos. McCully--Head Pickering Prof. Drummond Wiren--Gen. of W. E. A. Dr. Frisby--Eastern High School of Commerce. Pro. Drummond--University of Toronto. Prof. Duncan McArthur--Dept. Min. Education, Ontario. Dr. Grant--Head Upper Canada College. Dr. E. M. Best--National Council of Y.IM.C.A. These are but a few of the many men whom I have personally heard address the group, and later having talked with them have been assured of their heartiest endorsation of the The N. C. M. is being built up of young men who are naturally cap of becoming leaders. The object of the movement is to prepare for well advised leadership, those who are liciently interested in the welfare of our future Canada to become actively interested. There is no fee, there are .no strings, but frankly, if you are net tirred by the collapse of Canada's entire Economic structure (impending), if you are not convinced that Canada's future demands well informed leadership, or if you feel that "the other fellow" should shoulder the burden, then may I ask that you promptly forget the N. C. M. and its possibilities. On the other hand, if you realize the precarious position of Agriculture, he lamentable position of industry, he helpless position of labour, and the hopeless position of each in relation to the other, you have passed your first qualification to become a ember of the~N. C. M/ T¥en Tf you feel the urge is great to prepare self to help untangle the unholy mess by means of home study (study groups) in such subjects as are available through the medium of the W. and the Deptartment of Educa-you have made a second step. Thirdly, if you are interested to the extent that you would like to have study group in your own community, r to secure further information concerning the N. C. M., I will be more :han pleased to undertake correspondence and to do all I can by way of letting you started. This applies to anyone. There are io restrictions and .no rules other hat that you MUST be interested n he future, and willing, to study and work for its welfare. However, there is an incentive for action, for those who replv promptly showing indication of interest in the movement, will be awarded the opportunity of hearing Prof. Drummond Wren, of the University of Toronto, and Sec. of the W. E. A. Mr. Wren has. written that he will visit us in the near future if plans do not miscarry. He is a most interesting and capable speaker. It will ho worth your while to hear him. Please understand that this is not pnopoganda of any sort. There Is nothing to join and nothing to lose. There is nothing to promise, and much to gain if you desire to gain it. 7ou are free to do as you choose at any time. Try it! Write promptly if interested to Victor Brooks, Brighton, Ont. Hamilton, Ont., Dec. 27th.--Voicing the opinion that Judaism, and Christianity had failed in a great mission through placing too much stress on ritual and not enough on ethics, Rabbi Dr. Arthur Feldman singled out the Kahilahs of Toronto, Montreal and Hamilton for sharp criticism in his sermon at Anshe Sholom Synagogue last night. "Christianity has failed to transform the world because it had concerned itself more with redemption from sin and with salvation in the hereafter than with man and society and their improvement in the life hero on earth. "Has Judaism been any better than Christianity? One must be greatly prejudiced to answer in the affirmative," Dr. Feldman asserted. He declared that the prophetic principles A centralized army air force of approximately 900 fighting planes available almost instantly as a unit for attack or defence, was organized on December 26th, 1934, at the United States War Department. i weekly practice t CASH OR EGGS GOOD NEWS FROM BROWNS ECONOMY STORE WE SELL FOR LESS Friday & Saturday Specials 50 - BAGS ONLY - 50 BREAD FLOUR Limit 2 bags to a Customer $2-- Every bag guaranteed to please TEA pkg. 24c GOOD Black TEA lb. 35c LIPTON'S TEA pkg. 24c Cooking SALMON 2 tall tins 25c Lard - 2 lbs. 23c Shortening, 2ibs.19c SODA BISCUITS 2 lbs. 19c JAVEL WATER bottle 5c THIS IS A REAL SPECIAL SNOW FLAKE SOAP CHIPS 4 lbs. 23c Rowntree's Cocoa 2 lbs. 25c Extra Choice Peas 2 tins 23c - BUY - white BROWN'S BREAD loaf 5c p f With 25c order of Soap p t rree! i pkg. oxydol free!
