In Saturday’s issue we published a let-

ter signed “Honesty” Although we do not agree with him in his contention that “;a man should have power to shoot every and all animals he finds trespassing on his pro- perty, fence or no fence,” we heartily agree with his contention that all animals should be kept oil' the roads.

In the making of laws our legislators are

guided by the will of the people. Permis- sion was granted many years ago to allow animals to be at large on the public high- way in certain localities, provided the peo- ple of those localities wished it. In other words, every school district was permitted to make its own laws in the matter of al- lowing or not allowing animals to run ai large. In the pioneer days of the prov- ince when there were large tracts of lan' open to the commons the arrangement was a convenience to many. Although condi- tions have changed, the matter of allowing or prohibiting the running at large of do- mestic animals is still in the hands of the people. No progressive farmer will per- mit his animals to roam the roads nor does he wish to have those of others do so. Yet the best farmers in many communities are over-ruled at the annual school meeting when the question is decided and a posi - _tive wrong is inflicted upon the community by the votes of its least progressive and most shiftless residents. No up-to-date school district now permits its animals to run at large and the time has come when the power to do so should be taken out oi the hands of the others. The Domestic Ani- mals Act should be so amended as to en- tirely prohibit the running at large of all animals. This also is in the hands of the people. If the farmers take up the matter

unitedly with their representatives we have no dou t the necessary legislation will be enacted.

Farmers also should unitedly insist upon

the government taxing the dog nuisance out of existence. Since our former' refer- ence to this subject we learn that some _thirty sheep have been killed by dogs with- in a few miles of Charlottetown. This alone is suiiicient casus belli against all dogs.

'l`lll‘] l"LA(i - ,

We are an undemonstrative people, un-

demonstrative especially over big things, although we can arouse a good deal of en- thusiasm over things of minor importance. On election days, for instance, when the return of a :favorite candidate or of “our party” is announced on the bulletin boards. we rend the welkin with cheers, When the bulletins announce great events, as they have done during the past two weeks, and notably during the past two or three days, they are read in silence. There may be a quiver of the lips and a lump in the throat, but there is no cheering. Perhaps it is the British way. We are none the less proud of the' achievement of our sons and of our Allies, because we receive the great news in silence. Some things are too big for cheers, too big to be expressed in shouting, and the news of the past few days has been of this class. We know the glorious record made by our own Canadians; we know, not from themselves but from their British, French and Italian allies, that they are one of the big factors in the events that have put the last seal on the doom of Germanism, and we know it from the Germans themselves. Yet we have not shouted nor rung bells, nor made any demonstration. It may be because of the indefiniteness of the situa- tion still, it may be because we are not yet out of the wood, it is certainly not because we have any doubt as to the meaning of the unparalleled victories of the past few days. We know that these are the final

to victory and peace. And know-

this we on, “in quietness and confid-

souls.” neglected; t igithe

ought. It should be flown every day, not only when victories are announced, but al- ways, and especially on public buildings. It is the emblem of what our boys are iight- ing and dying for; the distinctive badge of our Empire, the guarantee of our liberty. Our children should be taught to reverence it and to realize what it stands for.

'.l`lIE SIBERIAN EXI’EDI'1`ION

Many are asking what interest we have

in Siberia that we should raise a force of Canadians for service there. The question is well answered by the Ottawa Journal when it says: _ Siberia is vital to us because In war anything that matters to the enemy natters to us, and Siberia matters to Ger- nany. Any coast, island, or territory, no natter how obscure, which an enemy may _ise to our serious injury, must be fought _'or without flinching. And, most certain- y, there is peril of Germany using Siberia ,o our injury. The plain truth is--it has iecome an axiom of war-that the line . of lefence of a country is wherever the enemy nay be fought. We may have to defend the women of Canada on the frontiers of China and'_fight for our children’s bread and butter on the Equator or inside the Arctic Circle.

So, let there be no mistake about what

.ve are fighting for in Siberia. We are fighting there for three things: ..

(1) To help destroy German military

power wherever it exists;

(2) To enable a large section of the Rus-

sian people to shake off the chains which traitors inspired by Germans have placed upon their limbs; To protect fi‘om German aggression

ganada’s plain interests in the‘Far ast.

“After the war,” said a Toronto business

nan, “I would -like to see permanent ex- hibitions of Canadian products, both agri- cultural and'industrial, in London, Paris, Rome, Rio Janeiro and New York.” He ,idded that New York as a sales centre for Canadian goods had been neglected.

If we can .turn out first-quality products

there will be a sale for them in any foreign market, despite tariffs and transportation charges. The trouble with Canadian ex- port and home trade in the past has been a lack sometimes of interest, sometimes of ability on the part of the manufacturer. He has hidden his light under a bushel, while his competitor’s light has been set upon a candlestick-with reflectors. Thousands of articles are brought from the United States by Canadians, merely because simi- lar products made in Canada are not`known to the public. It is true that our manu- facturers have salesmen on the road, but they neglect overmuch the preliminary business of stimulating the public demand at home and abroad by well-judged public- ity. What is the use of trying to sell Can- adian products if the consumer does not know their origin, their quality and their price?

It is a delicate matter for a newspaper

to dwell upon the importance of advertis- ing, but the time has passed for conven - tional hesitation. The fate of the industri- f-il fabric of this country is in the balance. The munitions busines has shown that Can- ridan factories and Canadian labor are able to meet the competition of the world in pro- ducing high quality goods in quantities. But the Imperial Munitions Board provid- ed our manufacturers with contracts. In peace time the only way of getting busi - ness will be by “hustling” for it. 'l‘he be- ginning of all “hustling” in`these times is in the office of the advertising agency. _

MOVIES AND lfl‘}LI(iI()N .

“Men in the armed service of the United

States,” said an American chaplain, “are keen to talk about religion, They want to hear more about it. They may, anddo, like to be entertained; but down in their hearts they crave the vital things of life and of eternity. If we don’t give them tlieyreal things they leave the hut in blocks. You can’t fool the boys with pulpit camouflage.

“ ‘We usually open with 15 minutes of

“movies.” You don’t mind waiting?’~one preacher was ‘told. ‘Is that sort of' thing really necessary?’ he asked. ‘I don’t be- lieve it is. ‘I should like to put it to the boys, if you don’t mind.’

“The venerable preacher mounted the

platform steps. ‘Boys,’ he said, ‘I’ve come here to tell you something about religion. Would you like to begin right away or would you rather have a “movie” film flrst?' _-

soldier lad stood u hell with the moviesi:

MY IDEA OF ADVERTISING:-l

'im asked by “One Interested" to state my idea of iiilveitisiiig. Well l think it both a science and an art. The science consists ln knowing the

subject-the priciple lying at its roots; the need for advert sing, its ee-, momlc and business results. The art is the ability to write udvertlseniciiis 'hat advertise, or which bring results. V Every business mun should study the science of advertising until he has mastered lt. but in particular every businessinnn should master the nrt of advertising.
