The heavier the load the more air it takes, That's why tire makers have worked out the correct infla- tion pressure for every size of tire for different loads, Know the correct pressure for your tires, and stick to it. Don't guzss it — gauge it. Two or three pounds under pressure cuts miles off the life of a tire. Keep in mind you're riding on air, and if there isn't sufficient air, you're riding straight into trouble.

WHEN YOU BUY A RADIO Look for the Rogers A/C TUBE With the Top Clips HIS is your means of positive identification of a Rogers Bat- teryless Radio, as this tube is found only in the Rogers and is made and controlled in Canada exclusively by Rogers for their Batteryless Receiving Sets. Thousands upon thousands of these tubes have been in active daily use throughout Canada for years and most of those now in use for the third year are as good as new. The A,C tube is the heart of any electric set and the Rogers is the only A/C tube in Canada that has proven its ability to give maximum service for years. Fully Guaranteed Moreover the Rogers A/C tube is absolutely guaranteed to give satisfactory performance. You take no chance of heavy tube ~ expense! . The phenomenal success of the Rogers Batteryless Radio (it now enjoys the greatest sales of any radio in Canada and more than ail other “electric” radios combined!) is based largely on the quality, power, and durability of the Rogers A/C tube.

The answer to that question would be valueble informa- tion right now. Where are some of Jour weather prophetst - It is to be regretted that no public recognition was made of Armistice Day on Sunday last. All the churches held spacial services in fommemoratiog of the event but ho service was held at the Memorial. Many other communities held civic ceremonies and Listowel should have been among them. a It looks very much as though we could very profitably carry out a sug- gestion that applicants for gunners’ licenses should be required to pass an examination similar to the one we have for drivers of automobiles before we turn them loose. An in- experienced man or boy or woman with a gum or persons not known to be careful with fire-arms can cause a terrible lot of damage and injury. = GOUGE THE PUBLIC (Brownstown Banner) Gouge the public to the limit re- gardless of the service rendered, Is the argument of Arthur Brisbane, special newspaper writer. In his eyndicated column in this morning’s papers, he urges capital to join hands with union labor in the combination of prices. Read the following statement from his article: “What difference does {it make how much you pay your workers. or how few hours they work, if the public pays the bill with a profit left over?” Whet does the consuming public think of such argument? If such theorles are carried out where le It folng to end? The large mass of people, who are neither capltaliste nor identified with unton labor of any kind, are already burdened under the yoke of paying high pro- fits to capltal and the short hours of unfon labor in eome industries. There is a limit to which such poll- cles can be carried, and with many people, whose earning capacities is limited for one reason or another, the limit of gouging by trusts, com- hinattons, and greedy cap‘tal, has about “been reached.

The Dicterts live on the 9th con. of Howick and the ‘baby had gone out to play with two of the other children. They gl!) start- ed out for the back of the farm where the hired man was working, but the smallest child became separ- ated from the others.

Looking carefully throughout the turkey pen e was about to return to the house and apprise the family of the mis- fortune when he noticed something in the form of a purse lying on the ground just outside the door. Upon picking wp the article he found it contained $200 and some silver. The farmer commenced counting the money and-figured his profit on the birds had he had to deliver them to town, and decided he had been well paid as they averaged nearly $20.
