It does not mean that you have to pay your taxes direct to be a taxpayer. And you may never pay income or a property tax, but a certain percentage of your earnings is taken for taxes just the same. Every purchase you make is taxed somewhere. The producer, the jobber, or the retail- er of everything you purchase must pay a tax and that tax is added to the cost of everything you buy. There is noth- ing that you spend your money for that We should take more pride in than what we spend for taxes and the up- keep of our government, both local and federal. But there should be no unnecessary discouragement in the way of an oppressive tax policy placed on the people. The taxpayer is the goose that lays the golden egg. The question is will the public servants he employed kill him in order to collect more eggs than he can prdduEe? Every day motor traffic is increasing in volume, yet with all the general knowledge at the disposal of the auto- mobilist, some drivers seem to be unaware that there is particular danger at grade railroad crossings. Almost daily the dispatches carry details of deaths caused by some care- less motorist driving upon a railroad crossing in front of an approaching train. These drivers seem to be so careless and irresponsible as to make their acts little short of crim- inal. Individuals of seeming intelligence, able to possess cars and operate them, remain as ignorant when it comes to driving across a railway track as the savages who have never seen a railroad or locomotive.

Yet they who have twit, or think they have, are in special danger of saying too much. Some one has said: “It is better to say nothing and be thought a fool, than to open the mouth and diSpel all doubt” Be brief! The newspaper leads the style to-day in pith and cog- ency and has educated the public to the expectation of re- ceiving much in little. The well-executed cartoon, will im- part a whole philosophy of life at a glance, or provide silent comment on current events worth a column of words. Brevity is the touchstone of success in any field. You may offend your customer, your reader or your hearer in one respect and please him in another. But if you tire him by your tediousness, you lose him altogether. The world is in a hurry: please be brief. Poor terminal facilities for authors and speakers often nullify all their excellent wisdom. A man may possess all kinds of useful knowledge, but fail in “discerning When to have done.” Tell me not in mournful numbers advertising is a dream for the business man Who slumbers, has no chance to skim the cream. Life is real! Life is earnest! Competition’s sometimes fierce. In the business field of battle, collcoddles have no place; be not like dumb driven cattle be a live one in the race. Lives of great men all remind us we must bring the bacon home, and departing, leave behind us footprints on another’s dome. Let us then be up and doing; other- wise We may be done; still achieving, still pursuingâ€"adver- tise and get the menâ€"From Publicity. The man who says business is too poor to justify a small advertising expenditure is in the same boat with the man who says he is too sick to take medicine. We have heard men say it doesn’t pay to advertise, but as we look at the advertisements of merchants we know are successful, we prefer their opinion on the matter, says the Almonte Gazette. Advertising is like anything elseâ€"It pays and pays Well if looked after properly. If neglected it is almost worthless. The successful business men look after their advertising like they look after thier buying and displaying of goods. The historic riding of North York will be the centre of Dominion-wide interest on September 24th when the electors will elect a representative to the House of Commons. On that day the people of North York will have an opportunity of passing judgement on the Bennett govenment which was elected in 1930 on the strength of the most rash political promises ever made by any political leader or political party in the history of this or any other country. The record of the fulfilment, or rather non-fulfilment of these promises, has been indelibly impressed on the minds of the people of this country during a period of the most severe economic depression ever experienced. Mr. Bennett has lost the con- fidence of the electors of Canada but he still clings to office. It is conceded that if a general election were called now Mr. Bennett would be driven from control of the affairs of this country under an avalanche of votes, and from the Atlantic to the Pacific there is an almost unanimous demand for a government which will have at heart the interests of the great mass of the people. Canada needs a government which will bring in a program of reform to correct the e riomic ills of the present day. Canada needs a govern- ment which will break down the artificial barriers of trade built up by Mr. Bennett and substitute for sky-high tariffs a fiscal policy which will benefit the great maJority rather than the privileged few. The result .of the by-election in North York will have far reaching influence on the affairs of this Dominion and the suggestion by the Bennett candi- date that the election is of little or no importance is an in- sult to the intelligence of the electors. The eyes of Canada are fixed on North York. On September 24th North York will answer in no uncertain voice that Canada has no fur- thIJ use for Mr. Bennett and his false promises and will dcmand a new deal.
