'i`he Canadians I suppose have notybeen in the thick of the pre- sent oliensive of the enemy and learn their casulties have ljeen few corn- DHMUVGIY Speaking. 1 am sorry that Messines Ridge has ‘been lost after so much hard labor on the part of the Canadians, but I guess it will not be in their possesson any great length of time. The day- of final reckoning is not fur distant now. lit certainly was u great stand the Britons made against the barbarianhordes who came like a deluge into the planes of Picar- i!'y and of Flanders. The daily' papers are extrolling the bravery of the British as never before. They are com- paring it to the line at Waterloo, when Wellington with his red coats resisted the onslaught of Napoleon?-i veterans until help arrived. lt is he- licverl here that Foch has a great re- serve army ready who will rush into tho enemy lines at the appointed time. When and where is the question. it is to be hoped that ‘when it does it will force the German back into his own lzuni, and end with the destruc- tion of the German army. 'l‘he ll. S. is thoroughly aroused and men, ~women and children are thoroughly awakened ,to the bigness of the task and filled 'I think, with nn enthusiasm that will carry them to the bitter end. There will I ani sure be no cessation of hostilities until llncle Sam has helped the allies into Berlin; There is no halt' way house if I can judge the sentiments of the people here :tri-glit.

Ten thou- sand people laughed and wept by turns and finally gnashed their teeth as he told of the bravery of the Can- adian boys and the brutality of the Germans, who even went so far as to crucify Canadian prisoners, “Mighty few Canadian prisoners are taken these days" said he, “they do not sur- 'render; they die first." Alton too a city of 32.000 people is alive also. One of the greatest parades I ever saw took place the other night. all Alton was there and the surrounding towns as well.

S a business man, your shoe/dealer has only onc- object in life. That ,is to fill your -requirements exactly-.to thus make his store a more satisfactory place to shop. I Every minute of the day he is on the alert to obtain new and reliable merchandise, so that when you come into his store, you will have the best of everything at the lowest possible prices to choose from. In addition to supplying your needs, he tries in every way possible to avoid misunderstanding, mistakes and annoyances. ‘He sells you not only merchandise, but service iliilllil'illilllllllilllIlllllllllllllllillllllllllllllll A '\. j , lllliillllllllllllllll lllllllllllllIIllllllllllilllllllllllillllllill lllllllllllllllillillililillllllllllllllilllll l |numl|l||l|l|l|||l||i|ui|l||| il For example: In Canada from coastto coast, there art: approxi- mately l0,000 dealers who sell shoes. They sell thousands and thousands of pairs of shoes each day. It would be surprising if among these thousands of busi- ness transactions somc mistakes or misunderstandings did not occur. ` Now then, when something goes wrong with your purchase, what is your attitude towards your dealer? in most crises, of course, 'the basis of adjustment is evident, and most dealers in Canada are quitfrezidy to give prompt atten- tion to reasonable claims. That is the understanding on which _ I :ill business should bc none. If you buy a suit and a seam rips or any other little thing goes wrong, you do not ask or desire a new suit, but merely have the trouble repaired. Are you equally reasonable about S oes? D0 you make demands on your shoe dealers which in comparison with other business would be un reasonable or excessive? Do ou fully realize that foot- wear llas to stand the toughest treatment of any wearing apparel, and is oftentimes subject to actual abuse and rough usage P All reliable manufacturers stand fully behind their dealers in cases of reasonable claims arising from chance defects of workmanship and material. But if you force your dealer to make allowance for a claim that if unjust, he has to stand the loss. Appreciate the fact that your retail shoe dealer wants your trade, and that he wants to have you consider his store al pleasant and satisfactory place to shop. l-le wants to be just, even at Hnnncial loss to himself. So the next time you have a complaint or a re-adjustment to bring to his attention, why not be sure that your claims are well founded and that what you ask him to do is reasonable. Bc fair to your dealer. I When you see the A. H. M. trade mark on a shoe, you know that not only is flat mark an endorsement by the largest shoe concern,in Canada, but that being the product of a highly organized industry, the shoe you are buying represents the utmost in value, style and wearing qualities which can be obtained at the price.
