The harbor here has been used by various aerial transport- ation companies and on occasion government machines have stop- ped here, but so far nothing has been done towards the provision of the proper markings of the port. Perhaps the suggestion of the gentleman referred to, that the Board of Trade might interest it- self in the proposal, would bear fruit in an increased use of the facilities here for aerial transpor- tation.

Another feature that has catis- | |ed increased interest by outsidé curlers is the fact that the vwin- |ner of the Grand Aggregate will, this year, be eligible for the play- down for the Canadian single rink championship and the Mac- |donald Brier Trophy.

The pub- lishers have felt for some time that this increase was justified, considering the fact that during the past year the paper has consisted of eight pages of home print, thus giving a much greater amount of local and district news than was possible when a readyprint section was being used. The printing of the entire paper in town entails a large increase in the cost, and it is a well established fact that the subscription price does not cover the expense of publishing any weekly newspaper. It is also well known that -about three- quarters of the weekly news- papers in Canada, similar to The Haileyburian, are on the $2.00 rate. While the change will go in- to effect on March Ist next, renewal subscriptions will be accepted previous to that time at the old rate of $1.50. Statements of subscriptions in arrears or due for renewal have been sent to all subseri- bers this month and all who wish to get in on the $1.50 rate are warned to get busy. tries close on Saturday, Feb. 8th, promises to be a record breaker in every respect.

HEN man reaches that stage in his existence where the urge for "home" dominates his thoughts he is suffering the first stages of the re "settling down" process. He begins planning a house and all that goes with it, and realizes that before he can settle down and become a Solid Citi- zen he must "settle up." Now this "settling up" business should be indulged in at regular intervals by most of us. There's al- Te: ways some little account that if not paid promptly when notice is sent, will be allowed to stand indefi- nitely. One of the most unfortunate in this respect is the subscription to the newspaper. The amount is small and comes due but once a year; so it is easily forgotten. But when a thousand subscribers "forget," the publisher is in a bad way and imme- -- diately has to put on pressure to collect the $1.50 accounts. é There is one sure way of keeping "settled up" with your newspaper--watch the label every week.
