The Greeks, with a fine regard for tart, usually made music a part of the advertising program. They gave us the idea of employing bands to at- tract attention, undoubtedly one of the most successful methods of draw- ; ing a crowd at any place and time, At first a town crier, accompani>d by a musician playing a lyre or a harp, mingled among the Greek pgo- ples and used only the best and choicest Greek in his extravagant praises of the product he was ex- ploiting. Liter, however, private advertisements in writing began to be introduced, particularly on the whitened wallg of the homes, giving some infcrmation regarding the so- dents, .their finanial rating and the family lineage. The Romans advertised in many ways. They named their streets, ad- vertised shows, exhibitions and sales on the terra cotta walls of public baths, acquainted the public with sales of estates and absconded, deb- tors and began the pr'ictice of not- ifying the Romans of articles lost and found and houses for sale or rent. The Romans are commonly eredi'- ed with the origin of the sign board. Today we have the bulletin board, which cerresponds to the Reman tabella found in the ruins of Pompeil and Herculaneum, wheres public an- nouncements were made, Advertising met the same fate as the Romans did when the Huns came sweeping down from the north, Un- til the middle ages very little of it is seen. But with the appearance again of the town crier, supplied with the customary long winded declara- tions and a choice supply of adjec- tives advertising began to make it- self felt in the comduet of business No salves, no harness, no lies 1 send on trial to prove what I say is true.

Results of investigations by the Ontario Department of Agriculture show it. There is about one man per hundred acres left on the farms--not enough ! Unless labor is forth- coming in thousands--men and hoys--the farmer cannot now sow gven a normal harvest, much less the increase the Motherland expects Ontario to produce. This labor must come from the cities, towns .and-¥illages. 7° cap The world's available reserves of grain are Sow gone. We are living literally from hand to mouth. Therefore--this call urges upon all Boards of Trade, Chambers of Commerce, Patriotic Socie- ties, urban and rural Mayors, Aldermen, Coun- cillors, Reeves, retired farmers and others to hold local meetings at the earliest possible moment and determine upon the best ways and means of meeting this great emergency in their locality. The Central Committee is at your service and will co-operate with suggestions, etc. oi. Chairman--His Homor Sir Lieutenant Governor of Ontario. William Hearst, N. W. Rowell, Esq., K.C., M.L.A.
