"You might almost go as far as to say that the difference between a civilized and uncivilized people is the "use or failure to make use of ad: vertising." : Jig 'This statement was made to the . tenth annual convention of the Cham- § ber of Commerce' by B. W. Keightly, advertising manager of Canadian Ine dustries, Limited, in an' address on "How Advertising Can Develop Em- "ployment," «In the Civilized country", said Mr. Keightly, "the widespread desire on "the part of the people to avail them- selves of every aid to modern living ' finds reflection in a constantly grow- "ing volume of advertising information about these devices, while exactly the reverse is true of the less advanced countries. The credit, of course, for civilization cannot be claimed by ad- vertising, but where the soil is" fertile, there you will find advertising at work constantly stimulating pro: gress." 'Mr. Keightly disputed the view that people today had insufficient money to justify the expenditure of large sums in an effort to sell the better class goods: Most of them, he said, were just timorous, "Fear and lack of cone © fidence", he said, "have caused them to reduce normal spending. "That money can be: coaxed out of hiding if you can make people want your goods badly enough" he added, |. "is proved by the tremendous spurt in the motor car business in the past wo years. There was no doubt in __ 'the speaker's mind that if the auto. and Thee Every Hour" was sung softly as a prayer. Rev. Mr. Smyth was pre sent and held a dedication service for the new officers. We are pleased to report that the League is entering a 'team into the Inter-Union Debating Series of the Presbytery. Will Lyle Albert Harper will bear the local standard. The boys will have a pre- liminary work-out previous to the de- bate in the series on or about Feb. 19, when Miss Laird and Miss L. Murphy will oppose them. We expect Scugog 'will be the first team the boys will meet, the debate taking place on or about February 24th, The subject is "Resolved that sanctions'should nog be employed against an aggressor natioh in time of war." The home team in this series has the negative. 26% of the offering goes to the Presbytery Debating 'Committee, the remaining 16% is divided between the Leagues. The boys will put a great deal of work on the debate and the community should support them well. Earl Martyn had charge of the Christian Fellowship programme which consist: ed of a reading by Olive Bond, reading by Earl Martyn, a vocal selection by Mrs. Murphy and Mrs, E, Lyle, "God Will Take Care of You", The topic was taken by Mr. Smyth. . The last hymn "Blest be the Tie that Binds" was sung while all joined hands in a circle, - which sdemed gpjte fitting. The League benediction was then pe- peated in unison. ; We are pleased to report that Mrs. 'Wagg, Sr, is improving in health, and My. John Warren is able to be around the house again. a of Ld « oF y +f i TF. .

"It is astonishing that so many people who have no time to do anything for the welfare of the community in general grasp every opportunity to accuse public servants of being in office for purpose of grant or personal gain. One has_but to stop where public matters in order to learn how crooked and deceitful the servants of the people have proven -- themselves in handling affairs of municipality or state. critics and fault-finders show themselves in a bad light for it is but natural for an intelligent listener to reverse the argument and conclude that graft and greed would indeed prevail if the said The vision of a certain class of people is so obscured by selfishness that they fail to see where any one can possibly serve his municipality or country from a desire to be of some use to his fellow-man and not for personal fame or gain.

Oakwood Rovers 7 Seagrave Y. Rangers 6. Undefeated so far this season, Asa Stephenson's Rovers had a bad scare thrown into their camp on Saturday last when they were hosts to the fast stepping Young Rangers of Seagrave and gave further evidence of their right to first place among the juvenile teams of the dis- trict. The Young Rangers were play- ing their first game as a team and also their first in an enclosed rink, Right from the drop of the first puck the Rovers knew they were up against a tough team, and were down three goals to one at the end of the. first period. Tom Maneely, tallied all the three counters, while Jack Hicks on the defence for the Rovers beat H. (Tubby) Scott for their one counter. Playing with their back to the wall and two goals down the Rovers hit a - fast clip as soon as the gong started the second stanza, with Eddie Savanac - bulging- the twine twice and Jack Hicks getting his second goal of the game. Manecely getting his fourth to make "it four all at the end of the second, R Both teams came out for the final canter determined to break the tie, and the period had only nicely statrted when Meneely scored on a perfect pass from Harvey Clarke who was playing a stellar game at left wing for the Rangers. Jack Hicks again got the equalizer on a hard shot. The Rangers were showing signs of tiring, most of the players playing the full sixty minutes but were bat- tling for a win. skating right winger of the Rangers, broke through the Rovers defence and caught the top corner with a hard drive to again put them in the lead. It was short lived. Savanac again tieing it up with a floater that fooled Scott. Jack Hicks put the game in the bag with his fourth goal of the game through a maze of players giv- ing Scott no chance to save.
