One thought it had too many advertisements tm it, The other replied. “In my opinion the advertisements are far’ from be- ing the least valuable part of it. I look them over carefully and save at least five times the cost of the paper each week through the buel- ness advantages I get from them.” Said the other: “I believe you are right—I know they pay me_ well and rather think it is not good taste to find fault with the advertise- ments after all.’ It paye any man with a family to take a good local paper for the sake of the advertisements, if nothing more. “And if business men fail to give farmers a chance to read ad- vertisements in the local weekly pa- per they are blind to their own in- terests, to say the least. “You never trade with me,” said a business man to a prosperous farmer. ‘You have never invited me to your place of business and I never go where I am not invited: I might not be welcome."’ was the reply. INDUSTRIES HELP FARMERS Some people argue that greater industrial development in a com- munity will hurt farming. On the contrary, it will help agriculture Many industries today utilize farm products—leather, wool and cotton industries, cereal mills. packing plants, and many others. Industries based on land _ prod- ucts have proved themselves of great benefit to agriculture, and we need more of them, as they create a home market for our products. Thé greater development of industries will keep more young people in the province. will open opportynities to college and high school’ graduates, and agriculture would increase when the industry of the province increases. Listowel wants factories and the latch string is always out to those companies that are looking for good locations, where economic conditions exist. -"™ PRAY WHEN IN DISTRESS One Sunday év@ning recently when preaching at the union services in the Presbyterian Church on the subject ‘The Art of Right Living.” Armstrong spoke, of “finishing your task."" Along that line also he emphasized the expreas- on “pray through'’—pray through |your difficulties. Many of us, also. only pray when we want something and ignore God 'except in time of distress. We have, read of communities forming union mass meetings to pray for rain. The drought had reached euch stages in some sections as to be alarming. God eent the rain, the water sup- plies were replenished, a general relief from the extreme hot weather was experienced and the crops aided) to a great extent. But, in the ordinary season when the refreshing rains come, we think nothing of it and we do not hear of mass meetings to express thanks. A ew thankegiving services, aside from the regular yearly day in No- vember, would be better insurance against disaster in the future. But we will likely go on as before, re- ceiving the blessings of God, but never giving thanks. Sa ee Se a a a ae ee Me ee ee ee * « DORKING bob Mr. Hunter M.
