GET AFTER BUSINESS JUDICIOUS ADVERTISING Owen Soinid is reaching out after business and will get it if she ‘goes after it. It seems only right that it should he so, but what about the places that lie back and rest while the trade is being taken from them? ttrade from a certain area and, as a rule, got it. Through the modern and improved methods of transporta- tion, time and space have been largely annihilated and the man with â€" 1â€"1‘- ~l. business or give up the job as the only alternative. . ~ We are not living now in the first half of the last century, when every town, vilage or hamlet claimed the ‘ubcan vv ..... his car can leave after breakfast, take run of twenty or thirty miles, do business and be home in time for an early dinner. It isn’t any use finding fault with those who trade elsewhere, though in many cases they would do as well at home if they only thought so. The best way to get after business is to go for it, and the best way to go for it is through judicious advertising. Make the prices right, the ads. attractive, and the business will come. MUST NOT BONUS INDUSTRIES In perusing the Municipal Amend- ment Act of 1922 a few days ago, 'a citizen made a rather startling disâ€" cljn'ery. In fact. he was so surprised at what he found that he wrote to the Ontario Gtwernment authorities to learn if there had not been some mistake made. He was assured in reply that. no mistake had been made. The surprise has to deall with Clause x Section 39.3 of the Muâ€"l nicipal Amendment. Act which pro- \‘ides for granting ot‘ money as gifts or loans to industries by municipaliâ€" ties. Under the Municipal Amend- ment Act of 122, this clause has been repealed. The Act was passed on May 18 and received royal assent of the Lieutenant-Governor on the following day. It is now law and is no longer legal. The repeal of such an important clause will seriously affect several towns and cities of Ontario which had adOpted the policy of bonusing new industries. A STEP TOWARD UNION ‘Listowel Standard.) Rather unique in local church hisâ€" tory was the exchange of pulpits on Sunday morning between Rev. W.H. Dunbar, rector of Christ Church with Rev. Dr. Hazen, pastor of the Methoâ€" dist Church. The event was one that would have been impossible but for the broader spirit which prevails to-day as com- pared with that of but a few years ago, and from comment heard, apâ€" pears to have met with the approv- al of the congregations. Dr. Hazen, it is said, would make a good . nglican, while Rev. Mr. Dun- bar is one of the evangelistic type and quite qualified for the Methodist pulpit. Both did good work on Sun- day, despite it. being their first exâ€" perience. Dr. Hazen was probably confronted with the more difficult task, but managed to get through the someâ€" what intricate form of service with- out a break or hitch of any kind. His usual clerical coat was discard- ed for the cassock and surplice and he preached his sermon from the regular pulpit. The invitation. was extended to Dial Hazen because of his intended reâ€"1 moval at a near date, and being for long years a strong supporter of Union, he had much pleasure in. ac- cepting. The beautiful service of the Anglican Church greatly impressed him. It will be remembered that when the Supreme Court of Justice was sitting in Owen Sound iniMarch he-l fore Justice Logie it handed down a? decision in the case of the County of Grey vs Dufl'erin Construction Com- pany "that was favorable to the lat- ter. The County immediately ap- pealed the’ case and the judgment was given out the other day. This time the County lost again, the de- cision favoring the Construction Company, says the Owen Sound Ad- 'vertiser. COUNTY OF GREY LOSES APPEAL The suit arose over the cutting of the second rock hill on the Meaford Road. The company claimed that they had done more work than their contract called for, and they were suing for this.

Triplets, two sons and a daughter,‘ were born early that morning. To our knowledge this is the first case on record of triplets having been born here. Sad to relate, one of the sons VV as still-born, but the two other infants and the mother are do- ing nicely. In the opinion of the attending physician, Dr. W. J.

PALMERS‘PON’S TAX RATE HIGH (PalmerSton Spectator.))‘ PalmerstOn’s tax rate this year will be 54 mills on the dollar. Al- though this appears higher than last year it is actually a reduction, as the County Rate ~was increaded 3 mills. Recent heavy lawsuits on the part of the county and extra ex-i pense on county highways are resâ€" ponsible for the county increase, but this is something over which the “Town Councilmas no Control. The town rate this year is only 10 mills, the school rate 14, library 2 mills, debentures 18 mills and the county 10 mills. It must be remembered that the county gets $3,000 more than last year, receiving four mills over the town’s assessment, whereas last year they received five.
