Editorials PROFIT MOTIVE IS WELL FOUNDED Profit is the reward the world pays to those who invest their time, their talents and their money in producing the things that people want. It is not guaranteed to anyone in any way. Those who seek it do so at their own risk, and have no ground for complaint if they lose. Imagination, forethought, ingenuity, perseverance, patience, industry, thrift, enterprise and sound judgment are all helpful in winning profit but none of them can guar- If profits are so uncertain why do people work so hard and risk so much to make them? Why do they not work for wages and be content with a steady, assured income? The answer is that most of us do. But if we all decided to do that, who would there be to employ us and where would we find jobs? The plain fact is that some people have to take the risks and the responsibilities of ownership and management or there will be no jobs for anybody. Countries whose people are not enterprising and willing to take such risks and such responsibilities are invariably poor countries, offering few opportunities to their people to rise above the poverty line. Profits honestly made and wisely spent are a boon to any country; and it is a grave mistake to frown on them or to discriminate against them or treat them as ill-begotten gains. When industries are nationalized in order to save, for the people, the profits the owners are making, it generally develops that the profits disappear and in many cases are turned into losses. Well managed industries do not pay all their profits to the shareholders in dividends. They lay aside a substantial portion of them as reserves against future needs. -- Canadian Statesman. ELLIOTT LAKE NEEDS A HAND The model town of Elliott Lake, which got under way four short years ago, is now facing a crisis caused by the cessation of uranium contracts which were the sinews of the town's foundation. The town, built to meet defence needs for uranium, has sewers, water, paved roads, a new 120 bed hospital, 12 churches, 10 excellent schools, established business, a live newspaper, television and radio facilities. The town will be just as useless as a vine cut at the roots unless the Dominion Government steps in quickly to stabilize the uranium market or find an alternative impetus to keep it alive. omic and social structure through loss of uranium oxide market propects, seeks the most immediate and courageous attention of you, sir, to undertake action that will turn Elliott Lake from a discard city to a prosperous nuclear products supply and research centre. This organization and citizens of the community urge relocation of the Whiteshell Nuclear Research establishment from proposed Manitoba site to Elliott Lake." ' The question that runs through our minds and most likely that of every businessman in Ontario is why was this town set up unless the Dominion Government and the Province of Ontario intended to follow through with the necessary supports. There is no need for new towns in remote areas unless they have a particular purpose in the development of natural resources- Many of our older towns, such as Meaford, can assimilate new industries and provide room for growth under favourable conditions. The though which occurs is, "Did promoters use Elliott Lake for a fast buck leaving workers and business people to perish in the void?" This is a case where the Government can step in, nullify the mistakes that have been made and make use of the millions of dollars in physical assets that are available. This would enable the citizens of Elliott Lake to develop their town like any other self respecting community, rather than make it a ghost town from which disgruntled and embittered citizens have fled. The suggestion of the Elliott Lake Chamber of Commerce is a good one. Elliott Lake could provide needed amenities for a new industry and the men to operate the same. Canada is divided into many communities but there is no reason why one should be eradicated when a central control can prevent the same. Elliott Lake needs a hand and there is no reason why the rest of Canada should not assist. -- Meaford Express. The Elliott Lake Chamber of Commerce in a wire Premier Diefenbaker has an answer when it states: "This community, faced with dissolution of its ec to WHEN MORE ADVERTISING IS NEEDED Talking to a successful merchant in a nearby city recently, we enquired how business had been. "There were signs of it falling off the first of the year", he replied, "so instead of reducing our advertising, as our opposition did, we increased our newspaper space with excellent results." There is a moral in this that every advertiser would do well to observe. Too many businessmen are inclined to cut down on advertising when things get a bit tough. But the successful ones will tell you that is the very time to encourage buying by larger and more attractive newspaper advertising.

Cake should rise just to the top of the pan in order to brown well and give finest quality. I Prepare the pans before starting to mix the cake. With pans for sponge, angel or chiffon cakes, do not grease or line with paper. For other types of cake, line the bottom of the pan with wax paper. Do not grease the sides, however, since a larger cake results when the side* of the pan are not greased. Special care is necessary in preparing pans for certain cakes, such as fruit cake and gum drop cake. Your cake will look better if you spread the batter well into of the pan. 17.
