. The great national pastime this weather is ‘squeezing the
expenditure column $0 ‘that it will remain in proportion to the
revenue. The first step in this of course is making a decision as
to what items are absolutely necessary to the well-being of our
minds and bodies and consigning,the balance to the limbo of things
we will have when the times improve.

You cannot do without your local newspaper for several very
gocil reasons, the first of whieh is that as an intelligent citizen
of the community it is necessary that you kecp informed as to what
is taking place in that community what is transpiring at the school
the churches; if grants are being made from publie funds, or cut
off; what your community proposes doing about relief measures;
where food stuffs, meat, wearing apparel, wood coal, may be pur-
chased to the best advantage; all the intimate personal news; the
deaths, births, marriages, and the thousand and one other oceur-
renees that go to make up the life of the community.

That is the function of the local weekly newspaper. Its news
colunms each week carry the story of the activities of the eom-
munity, and in addition to the effective news sf the world at
large. Its advertising columns bring into your home the best of-
ferings of the stores and shops with prices and description.

The Herald costs you but Two Dollars for a whole year, If
you will .rpad it thoroughly, intelligently you will receive many,
many times over a return in value. And the Herald is a good
paper for the family to read. There are many things children may
learn from its columns, but nothing they should shun, The col-
uns are clean, carefully edited and contain all the NEWS. ©

Tf you are already a subscriber to the Herald i
send it to a friend, either in the community or
at-a distance. They will appreciate it. 7

Canadian cities and.towns are begin-
ning, or have been doing for some little
time, to default on payments in full to
their United’ States -ereditors. . Cana-
dians are quite willing to pay principal
and interest in Canadian dollars, but
not the twenty per cent exchange the
Aniericans are asking, There is noth-
ing thnt will bring war debts gettle-
ment to a herd quicker than a refusal
tu pay by the debtors. If it is war
the money lenders of the United States
wont they muy find plenty of it at an
early hour, and a war whieh will not
be so easily stopped as it was started.
The wur referred to is not necessari-
ly one of fighting men and inachines,
There is a more effective war to use
tzninst the money worshiping nation.
