Wingham Woodstock Goderich Gorrie Hanover Harriston Holstein STRUCK WITH AUTO--MUST PAY REPAIRS (Stratford Herald.) Harry Gale. of Sebringville, was charged in police court with allowing the motor car he was driving on the 13th of the month to collide with a buggy on the Downie Road, doing the buggy considerable damage and fur- ther that he failed, to observe the law which requires that the driver of a car in such circumstances must stop and give his name and number to the victim of the accident besides rend- ering all possible assistance. : Mr. Gale admitted hitting the bug- by, but stated that he did not stop as in looking back he buggy appeared to be all right and he concluded no harm had been done.- He claimed that the driver of the buggy Mr. Henry Kurtz, had failed to give him his half of the road and further stat- ed that he had blown the horn in warning. Mrs. J. Kurtz and Mr. Henry Kurtz of South Easthope, who were in the buggy both testified that they were on the right side of the road and said they did not hear any horn. The ac- cident occurred just outside of the city limits. The magistrate ruled that Mr. Gale was guilty not only of hitting buggy, but of failing to assist the people in the buggy as the law requires and { said that he-would suspend sentence | with the understanding that Mr. Gale pay the cost of repairing the buggy as well as the costs of the court. i "Any rags?

PROFITEERING Whenever the high cost of the nec- essaries of life is talked of, some one is sure to expréss the opinion that the "profiteer"' is mainly at fault. Is the charge really justified? To begin with, who is the profiteer? The word itself is new, born of the war, but the thing is as old as human nature. <A profiteer is, of course, one who takes advantage of the conditions that the war has established to exact more than his fair profit on what- ever he has to selli---a man who makes the necessities of his neighbors serve his own selfish ends. There have been men of that deseription at. work dur- ing the war; they never fail to appear whenever the opportunity for exor- bitant profits arrives. But there is no reason to believe that they have been so numerous.or so successful as to influence greatiy the general level of prices. Shall we éall the farmer a profiteer becduse he sells his wheat at the fig- ure set by the government, or his _|corn and cattle and cotton at the best price he market offers? Is the labor- ing man a profiteer because in this era of high prices he uses his organ- izations to keep his wages on the same upper level? Is the manufac- turer who finds his cost of labor and materials mounting with his taxes to blame for selling his product for more than it used to bring? Or is it the re- tail storekeeper, the last man to pass on he growing burden to the should- ers of the "ultimate consumer," that is the real profiteer? To ask those questions is to ans- wer them. High prices are the re- sult of a score of causes. Perhaps one of the chief reasons why they continue is the general opinion that those causes will one by one cease to be effective; that a fall in prices is he who lays up what he can in antici- pation of the years of diminishing profits that are to come. Conscious profiteering we believe to be rare, but the sort of reasoning we have des- cribed we believe to be common. No one, business man or workman or far- mer, is willing to be the first to low- er his demands, lest he find himself alone, facing, with a contracting in- come, an unchanged scale of expense. It is even possible, as some econom- ists believe, that we have moved up- ward to a price level from which there will be no going back. Whether that is so or not, the situation that exists to-day is fairly obvious and widely understood. It is not caused by the secret and guilty practices of the pro- fiteer, but by conditions, economic, financial and psychological, that we can all observe and appreciate.

There was about a hundred guests present for the ceremony. Many beautiful gifts were received by the young couple from their numerous friends. The groom's gift to the bride was a pearl necklace, to the bridesmaids amethyst pins and to the groomsmen tie pins, Short Stories Retold Rather Different. _ Some time ago a resident in Dub- lin entertained an old Presbyterian minister who was rather short-sight- ed, and loved to prowl about the city by himself. muttering to himself: "Very strange! Remarkably strange I have read Genesis xxx. through three times and fail to make the con- nection." ' The host naturally enquired what was troubling his visitor. "Why, I cannot understand why so many of the shops have reference to Genesis xxx. inscribed on them. I have seen it everywhere, even on bar- rels." : ; Light dawned on the host at last.
