Advertise And Reach Public.

At the annual New England Con-
ference of the Methodist Church.
held in Cambridge, Mass, Wednes-
day, the Rev. DR.. Christian F.Reis-
ner, pastor of Grace Methodist
Church, New York, advocated the
use of advertising by churches.
Advertise your churches in the
newspapers and keep in touch with
newspapermen, he said.
''It is a great mistake for clergy
men to keep aloof from newspaper
men and refuse to be interviewed.
Why, everybody reads the news
papers, and if you want to get your
interests before the public, you must
advertise in this important agency.
They will always treat you fairly if
you give them reason for doing so.
Why, l never could get a congrega-
ton in my New York church did l
not get the newspapers on my side.
4 send them weekly every item
of news in my church and then they
can pick out what they want to pub
liSh You must use business meth
DDS in the churches today. A wide
awake business man will always ad
vertise. A wide-awake church wi.
do the same.
Advertise your church and you
compel the people to, come in. If
had money would put a display ad
in the paper every week, and tell
the people what l was trying to do
for religion in my neighborhood. -

the various degrees of Tenderfoot,
second class and first class Scout
and Patrol Leader. For these sta
ges of the work there are three dis
tinctive badges, but as many of the
older boys have developed quickly
and have fulfilled the requirements
for first-class Scout they are now
ready for the advanced work. Ac-
cordingly, badges of merit are being
prepared by national officers, to be
awarded to the boys for special ap-
titude in such lines as ambulance
work, signalling, gardening, horse
electricity, cycling, and so
on. Many phases of this work can
be carried on at the various sum-
mer encampments, which local COM
mittees and some State committees
are planning for the boys.

In MemOridm.

In sad, but loving, remembrance
of our dear father, Ernest Cook,w he
departed this life two years age
today, April 10, 1909. Loved IL
life; in death, remembered.
One by one our ties are broken,
AS we see our love decay;
And the hopes so fondly cherished,
Frightened, but to pass away. -
Father, how we miss you
Our home is so dark;
But Jesus is with you,
In the heavenly park. -
The vacant chair is with us,
But your face we cannot see;
No more your voice will cheer us,
Until we've crossed the sea.
May we all be ready, father,
When the boatsmar' oar is
heard;
When from those heavenly mansion:
Well hear the welcome word.
By his Wife and Son.

CHANCE FOR OUR PACKERS
A Canned Goods Shortage Is Re.
ported In Canada.

Washington, April 9.-The great
canning industry of Maryland is in
terested in report from Consul Fe-
lix S. S. Johnson, of Kingston, indi-
eating that there will be this year
canned goods shortage which
should afford an opportunity to the
Maryland Gamers to dispose of theiI
surplus stock in Canada at attrac-
tive prices.
The 1910 tomato crop of the Do
minion showed, it is claimed, prac-
tically no decrease from 1909, but
the demand for canned tomatoes has
increased to such an extent that
prices have gone steadily upward,
with a possibility that these high
levels may be maintained. The Ca
madam West has already taken a
large part of the past seasons out
put, and the Gamers are now said
to be stripped of their stocks. Such
goods as are still to be had are in
the hands of, the wholesalers, and
it is assured that even their stocks
are running short and that they
have been buying of one another,
while some imports have been made
from the United States. A Canadi-
an canned-goods broker recently
said:
THE shortage in canned toma-
toes is becoming more apparent ev-
cry day. With six months trade
ahead, visible stocks are not large
enough to last three months with
the usual business passing; but con
6itions are bound to adjust them
selves, and there will likely be a
decrease in consumption from now
on if present prices continue. Still,
tomatoes have trade of their own,
and when customers ask for toma-
toes they want them and will not
take something else.
mot for many seasons has there
been such a decrease in the output
of peas as last year, when the
shortage amounted to between 40
and SO per cent. There is, there
fore, a market scarcity in this line;
but coupled with that there has
been a noted decrease in consump-
ton on account of the high price,
and other lines, such as corn and
beans, which are cheaper, have
been substituted for peas. There
is a difference of opinion as to the
future. The scarcity logically
should point to higher values, but
as retailers have nearly deserted
this ine-at the present price,. It is
felt that prices may have to be re-
duced in order to make sales. How
ever, crop prospects ashley be-
come known later in the season will
determine the scale 81 prices to a
certain extent.
Corn, so plentiful last year, and
of which Canadf packers delivered
fully SO per ceht. of contract, is al
so shortening An supply ON account
OF the high prices OF other canned
goods there has been brisk de-
mahd, and'it has gone out SO freely
that wholesalers in some centers are
already Buying among themselves to
repleniSh stocks. Conditions would
seem TO indicate steady if not high
er prices
Care should be taken to export
brands with attractive labels, rs
these are really important in effect
ing sales. Instances have been re-
ported where the sales of otherwise
appealing goods were hampered by
an unattractive label. The age of
stocks should also be kept in mind.
