BE CAREFUL WITH FIRES.

Persons cannot be too careful with
the management of fires these days of
water scarcity and with the fire plugs
in many sections of the city solidly
frozen. Do not empty ashes with any
live Goals in them near any inlamable
materials. One act of carelessness in
this manner now might mean a great
loss of property. So be warned in
time and be careful with fire.

THE RETAILERS

It is fast becoming plain to
even the most superficial obser-
yer that the people Of this coun-
try are in the hands Of the re-
tailers. Retail establishments in
all lines have multiplied within
the past two decades out Of all
proportion to the demand for
for such concerns. Ordinarily
this would mean keener competi-
ton, but not so at this time. In
fact, it seems to have just the
opposite result. Having natural
ly divided the volume Of business
by a larger number, each mans
per cent Of profit must of neces-
sity be greater or his net income
less.
We are aware that some NAV
construe our remarks as a rehec-
ton on retail stores in general.
Such is not our intention. We
would merely call attention to
the fact that the retail business is
greatly overdone There is scarce
ly a town in the entire country
that could not be adequately sup
piled by half the number Of estab-
lishments it now supports. The
retailer, while his business is a
community necessity, is not to be
considered in any sense a produc-
er, and now when production is
the one paramount consideration
in the nation, the ranks should be
bounds of possibility that even
the necessary lines may have to
thinned as much as the welfare of
the public will admit.
The main point we wish to make
is that the retailer who is making
bare living in a town already
over crowded with similar .estab-
lishments, could show his patrlo-

AUTHETIC WAR PICTURES

The government has granted
The Commonwealth the privilege
of publishing the war pictures,
produced from photographs taken
In the war arena for the comittee
Of public information, as well as
pictures Of War preparation, and
these will appear in each issue so
long as the committee produce
these pictures, which, it is stated,
will be for the duration Of the
war
Written words are valuable,
and probably last longer in the
mind than any illustration, but
pictures catch the eye and make
very distinct impression, SO that
it has appeared wise to have these
reproductions SO that the people
may know at a glance what is
happening over there, also the
progress made in this country to
fit our armies for the spring
drive which all say will be the
greatest military effort in all his

tism in no better manner than by
closing out his business and join
ing the ranks Of producers. The
latter need him and his fellows
in business would welcome his de-
sertion from their ranks.
The government has already
suggested that it may be necessary
to classify the different lines Of
business as essential and non-es-
sential, and to forcibly suspend
the latter. 1t is not without the

case no more fruitful field would
