KINGSTON, PORTSMOUTH and CATARAQUI ELECTRIO RAILWAY a THE DAILY BRIT | INDUSTRIAL WEEKLY REVIEW BOOST OR KNOCK--HHCH? \Which Is Worse, to Rob In- 'dividuals or' | Crowds ? Boosting is good stuff. The who boosts usually is and a help to the mtr When everyone boosts, everything moves, {and all bénefit, Knocking works m | Inverse ratio. By that knocking we mean a consistent and senseless dis- paragement of the efforts of others to improve conditions Yet there are, times when the boosting theory does not work out Just that way. Supposing you found a burglar about to carry off all the valuables in your 'house, would you beost him or knock him? Supposa the man who brought the milk around ia the morning gave you three-qarters of full measure, wonld you boost him or knock him? Sup- Vose-any number of men, of any in- | dividual, after verbosely crying alond {that he was out for the good of ihe {¢emmunity, should turn around and | perpetrate robbery on the comm:uai- lity should we boost or should we | knock ? | Inthe local June 14th, the man papers of Tuesday, carpenters' "local lodge, No. 249, through its secret- {ary, asked some very fair questions {by means of letters to the respective | editors. The first question was: | "Why do some of our local mer- {chants bring carpenters from Toron- [to to do their work when there 8 | plenty of help of that sort right here {in the city?" That question has not | been answered publicly yet. It there |a@re reasons, why do not these mer | {chants come forward and state those [ reasqns, trusting' their case to the {Judgment of the pubife as the car- | Penters have done? | The second question: "Does it |Seem reasonable or just for those | merchants to employ outside help |and expect to be patronized by the | laboring class?" No, it certainly | does. not. At thig time, with so many | industrial workers ont of employ- { ment, it is nothing short of criminal | for any local man to bring in out- side help unless his reasons are very, {very good indeed. What does he | expect local workmen to do when {they start out to buy the goods he handles? Will they buy from him, the man who would not employ thaw when he had fork to do and they had not, or will they go to some oth- er merchant or to outside mail-order houses? The answer \Is obvious. At times there have been "Buy- at-Home" campaigns in this city. Op the bill-boards you can read Patron- ize Your Home Merchants" to-day. "Boost for Your Home Town," is another motto we have heard be- fore, They are all good mottos. The point is, the merchants of Kingston must live up to these mot- SA --------_------ | | The Imperial Life The Imperial was the sixteenth Canadian Company to enter the Life Assurance field. 'In twenty- two years it has overtaken and passed nine of its competitors, so that there are now only six other Canadian companies that have as large an amount of assurance in force. Their ages range from twenty-eight to seventy-three years. J. B. COOKE District Manager, Kifgston, Ont. oo live wire | tos just as closely ag the rest of the community. They have no more right to break the rules than a work- fngman has. If mail crders were in- creasing in number from the city of Kingston, these very same merca- ants° who ro calmly employ outsiie labor Woull be tho. first to raise a hue and ery about "Patronize Your Own Merchants." If those people who are hit by the letter from the carpenters' sécretary think that they had good and suffict- ent reasons for employing outs'ds labor, then there can be no harm in letting the ~eople of Kingston judge their ¢ Let them came forward ond defend themselves. If they can- not do £0, tien the #Zocusation of the carpenters must be true and for those men who are accused the motto will become: "AS THEY SOW, SO SHALL THEY REAP." . ---------- GOOD PROSPECTS AHEAD S---- Should Be Building on a Large Scale Here in a Short Time-- Other Things Follow. Starting building operations g0- ing and industries moving is some- thing like getting sheep into the cat- tle car. Each hesitates to be the first to venture forth into unknown terri- tory but when one leads all the rest follow in quick order. That is about the Situation at the present tile, here in Kingston. The new comdi- tions, the suspense while wages and prices stand bowing betore the door of: the future, each waiting politely for the other to go through first, the armed watchfulness of capital and labor against each other, all these tend to slow things to the stopping point. Yet someone must be first, and at present, it seems as if the first firm to start will be the outside con- tractors who have received the con- tract for the new service building at the Kingston General Hospital. It is slighfly unfortunate, in some ways, that a local contraetor did not secure the award, but ji remains for the authorities to see that the firm that does this work employs King- ston labor. Once this starts there are other prospects. Queen's building opera- tions, not to mention the Stadium and the skating rink, are about due to commence and the Dominion Mob- tion Pictures, Ltd., intend construct- ing large studios here. THE PROVINCIAL HIGHWAY McGinnis & O'Connor In the Middle of Extemsive Operations on This Work, McGinnis & O'Connor, highway en- gineers, are certainly tearing the bot- tom out of the old Front Road be- tween here and Gananoque. Opera- tions started here last year and will be completed far below Kingston by fall. The road presents a sorry state now, due to the excavations and the steady traffic of the giant Backard KEELEY'S Eyesight Service Eyes examined scientifically, Over 20 yearw experience, KEELEY JR.

The completed road is Just | commencing to top of Barriétield Hill towards Gan- | anoque. Down along the picturesque Front Road it Stretches, flanked on either side by the newly-dug drain- ing trenches and deeply routed here and there by the stone trucks. Men are scattered out all along for a dis- tance of seven or eight miles, doing the advance' work for the main gang which follows with the appara- | tus for finishing the surface. At present the road is like a chau feur's a billiard board. ! --i BUILDS YOU vp, One of the Best Foods You Can Buy Or Use, Your healt is just like. a_ tower or a building. If some part of ft weakens it must be strengthened at once or there is danger that the | whole structure will collapse. Every | pint of milk that you drink is an-'| other brick in your health tower. It some part of the tower gets weak there is no better reinforcement or repair material than milk. Its food value is universally recognized and it is one of the easiest things in. the | world to acquire the habit of drink- | ing milk. | Price's Dairy turns out pasteuriz- | ed milk, so treated that all germs are killed and not one can Possibly | escape. Price's milk is a good build-| er, Try some of jt and watch the re- | sults. i ta | The Marvel of a Watch The mainspring' is one end of a watch's mechanism, the hairspring Is the other. In these two springs lies the secret. The mainspring supplies the pow- | er to the action of the watch, while | the hairspring controls this power and converts it into accurate motioy, The fitting of the parts surround- ing this 'hairspring is extremely delr cate, the thickness of the finest hair being Sufficient to throw them out of adjustment, so accurately are they fitted, Friction of accumulating dirt, 1ack of proper lubrication, efe., destroy the perfect adjustments of the deir- cate parts. Do not let your wa'ch ruin from neglect. One branch of the work of Smith Brothers, Jewelers, Ltd. King street, is the care of watches and the cpinion of the expert watchmakers costs you nothing. A lot of the tale men of a few weeks ago have found temporary Jobs and alittle more work is ap- rearing all the time. Things are better. A little idleness is a dangerous thing because it grows very rapidly. NA A A ctr rt | THE MeCALLUM.
