Vaughan was called after Benjamin Vaughan who with Rich- ard Oswald was sent to Lord Shelburne to negotiate the Treaty of Peace with the United States in 1783. The pair .4 fools let the 'Americans get all that part of Canada now included in the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin and would have al- lowed Franklin and Jay to wheedle them out of the rest of Canada, if Sir Henry Strachey, Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs, had not opportuner appeared in Paris. From that day to this the United States has always got the better of Great Britain in treaties and ar~ bitrations. See Thomas Hodgins’ article in March 1898, “Canadian Magazine.” Dr. Scadding thinks the name is from Viscount Vaugh- an (1793) also Earl of Lisburne. That would probably be Sir John .Vaughan colonel in Army, born 1769, died 1831, wn‘o succeeded his father as Earl of Lisburne in 1800. Sir Thomas Picton was aide de camp to Sir John Vaughan in the West Indies in 1794. Hon. General Vaughan, M. P. for Berwick, voted against the Canada Bill, and so did the Earl of Lisburne, M. P. for Cardiganshire. So when you are asked by your home merchants to buy at home, they mean BUSINESS and BUSINESS means PRICES. A fairer proposition than this couldn’t be expected by anyone. Isn’t it to your advantage to have a thriving town? Doesn't it improve your investments in the district? Isn’t a thriving town a reflection of what kind of people are living in the district? The do your part, give your home town merchants a chance to serve you. That’s all they ask. Before you patronize any of the big mail order houses, take a few minutes and scan the “ads” in the Home Paper. The merchants whose messages you will read are ready and anxious for a chance to serve you. But mind, you are not being asked to do this to your own det- riment or loss. You are only being asked for an opportunity of meeting yor requirements. If after you have given this opportun- ity to the merchants in your home town and you find their services, prices and goods do not come up to your expectations, then they will not expect you to continue their patronage with tnem. Your local merchants prices on all commodities will stack up with the best, and they want to build up their business on, PRICES, QUALITY, COM- PETITION and not SYMPATHY.

A Business Proposition To ask you to purchase your goods in your own home town is simply asking you to give your local market an opportunity to meet your requirements; asking you to help the town in your trade terri- tory that is trying to provide the necessary merchants stores and equipment to serve you faithfully honestly and economically; asking that you keep your money as near home and as near your business as possible, and also asking that you assist in building up one of the most progressive town in Canada.
