army, and the conference happily con-
cludcd wss between men representing
the reality Of fighting forces. His col
leagues and himself were the young
ireland, the real Ireland oil the south

tentative to the treaty was more blood

Cabinet considered it perfectly obvious
that If peace was to be made with Ire
land it must be made with fighting

was the last Chief Secretary for Ire
land and that he was Canadian by

an out-and-out home ruler. 81 believe
all the fears about the future of Ire
land are groundless." he says. "Thc
history of Canada and South Africa
will be more than realized in our new

He says that when Mr.. Lloyd George

You may fail. You may get shot. You
may win. Talk it over with Lady

BUSINESS NOT
 A BED OF ROSES For Man Behind Counter

Because of scant supply the gro- cer often has serious trouble m pro- curing merchandise. He has to stand the sharp cut of complaints rom<buy- CTS because of high costs. He all too frequently is blamed, wher absolutely blameless. And is not, on whole, making a wider margin of net profit than he did when conditions were normal, trade better satisfied and business transactions decidedly more pleasant.
 The grocer is your servant. He IS IT business to serve your require ments. He doesn't make you a slave to high costs. He is in exactly the same boat you are in He sells goods you want and ask for. He must meet ycur demands or get out of business. He has no choice in the matter. He can't go contrary to your wishes.
 The consumer can do more to- wards restoring prices to normal levels than the grocer can. This can be accomplished with positive cer- tainty by buying only food products 9f sound value and proven economy. Careless buying and rank extrava- rance are unQuestionably vital fac- tors in maintenance of high costs.
 When a consumer forces a grocer to sell sixty-fIve-cent article where thirty-fye-cent article would an swer the purpose equally well he. IS encouraging production of high priced goods of short value and hampering the manufacture of food products of sound value and fair prices. On the other hand, when the consumer insists on goods of inferior worth he is inviting inevitable waste that stands for loss rather than economy. Tn such occurrences the consumer. not the grocer, is at fault. For, remember, the grocer must give you what. you want despite the fact that he would rather supply your requirements with goods oi sterling value at a minimum cost.
