Regularity!

TO MERCHANTS

a *

“You sweep out, you trim the windows. you dust off the counters
you make tp new price cards, you unpack and arrange new stock, you
plan your merchandise showings, you do these and a hundred other nee-
essary jobs, REGULARLY in the normal conduct of your business,

“But, ‘how about the biggest job of all—eontacting the people and
telling them repeatedly that you are in business and have the goods they
need.....Do you do that REGULARLY? Do you figure you are going to
get your share of the available business if you don’t tell folks about your
merchandise and service at REGULAR intervals instead of doing the job
spasmodically or not at all? ”

“By all known tests, experience and thousands of records, the ac-
Inowledged hest-of-all medium for REGULARITY is advertisiny in the
lner! newspaper. A newspaper going REGULARLY ir io the hones of
your prospective customers, not only in your town bat the sucrounding
territory as well, makes it easy enough for anyone to see how your loeal
rewspaper fers yoo dhe finest kiad of a velicle for carryiny your Dusi-
ness message REGCGLARLY to the people.

“And dou’t thik that these folks won't miss yeur REGULARITY
of advertising. They looy for their newspaper REGULARLY. study
its advertising (yours, if it is there} REGULARLY.

“And what's more, you'll find they are buying fairly REGULAR-
LY, too, if you'll just check up, especially with the advertisers who do
use space REGULARLY.

WHY THOSE BUSH FIRES?

For some two weeks fires have been
on a tampage in various parts of the
district. We are informed by. fores-
try officinls that they ure doing no
harm—that no green timber is within
reach. Therefore no apparent attempt
ix being: made to put the fires out.

The forestry officinls may be right.
No doubt are right so fur as green
timber ix concerned. But that those
tires uve doing no harm we do not

agree. An unguarded fire in the bush
always does harm. It may be run-

ning over o piece of eouniry that was
Inwned before, but itis ulso destroy-
ing ‘the new timber’ that has just
got ‘started, and the timber which is to
supply future generations—those same

‘vonerations to whom we are leaving a

huge herituze of debt to pay.

We have been informed that in most
if not every cise people in the district
ive promptly reported the appearance
of. these fires; reported them early
enovgh sv that one-or two men could
have extinguished them ina few min-
utes or bours, The - Department of
lanids has spent a good deal of money

‘educating the pubtic to le cavefal of

fire and. to report promptly any fire
that may he discovered. Unless th: |

employees of the department do not
tke prompt action to put that fire out 5

they will soon forfeit the co-operation
of the public,

With all due respect to forestry em-
ployees and their mups and other Httle
gpidey-to efficiency, we cluim that all
fires are dangerous and that all fires
do damage; and that no fire shauld be
pevnitted to burn unless under con-
stunt guard. There is not one argu-
ment that ¢ny be advanced in fayor of
permitting bush fires tu rage ‘in all
directions in- the. district, while a hun-
dred good arguments can be advanced
against forest fires.
