WEDNESDAY, JAN, 4. 1022. THE D v AILY BRITISH WHIG | Gn 2 A EEG DOWN THE ROAD FIFTY YEARS' SERVIOE. Diamond Dyes Oelebrates Half a Oen- tury of Service, Somebody out of touch with truth, once said there is no sentiment in business. Apother greater in wis- dom, declared: "They profit most who serve best." ' All this year a concern that help- | od put Burlington, Vermont, on the map of national business, is velebrat- ing fifty years of successful servies of the womanhood of the v rid. "Diamond Dyes" is half a century old and they are having a series of happy episodes to make the anniversary a noteworthy one. "Diamond Dyes" is a heroic ex- amplé of the power of advertising. for the plant of small béginnings now covers a city block. The business was built on "making good" the ad- vertising that has meade "Diamond Dyes" a house-hold. Possibly the + "greatest aseet of this proved aid to economy, is the good will of families thet run through-generations. Young women tell that their mothers and grand-mothers before them, were Diamond Dye enthusiasts. They like the Diamond 'service plan" which makes {t clear that for a few cents it is easy to 'dye old things new." The Wells & Richardson people are ~ &oing to make the golden jubilee of Diamond Dyes nation wide. They will do this by the biggest newspaper advertising appropriation ever made in the fifty years of service. IR AT CAMDEN EAST, School Meeting Held--A.Y.P.A. Pre- sents Play at Bath.

FOR PASSENGERS « The advance on sleeping and parlor car tickets authorized in 1920 has been cut in half--the advance made on ordinary fares at that time having been completely taken off many months ago, _ FOR SHIFPERS The percentage of advance granted to the Railways in 1920 has been reduced ten points. In addition to a five point drop at the first of the year, These changes became effective December 1st. * Your cost of Living YOR cost of living should be directly affected. -If it is mot it Is because (1)-as the railways have pointed out before, the actual money paid for their services is an almost negligible factor in making prices, and because (2) even the huge sum now cut out of the railways' revenues and amounting to approximately i $25,000,000.00 ® ' annually--becomes a very small fraction of a cent when split up among the billions upon billions of small and large articles which constitute the freight traffic of Canada during a year. And because \ a@ (3) the Court which has the power to control railway rates Is not able to direct who Is or is not to get the benefit of reductions. In other words, whether these savings In railway charges are passed on to yoy--or whether they are absorbed in marketing, cannot be controlled either by the railways or the public, BY: this fact remains: a very great sum of money enough to build every year a small city, or a Que- bec Bridge, or four hundred and fifty of the newest and most powerful locomotives--is now removed from the revenues of the Canadian Railways and should be _ reflected, at least to some extent, in the family budgets of all Canadians | Faia : WwW HETHER your railways can continue to function revenue thus lost to-them, is an experimental the various managenients.
