MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP Success of the System Assured Throughout Prairie Provinces and Cities—-Water, Light and Power All Owned by Cities, Another side blessing of free trade sentiment is municipal ownership, which is simply hand- ing their own over to the natural owners and keeping private mon- opolists out. Public ownership is not a failure in Alberta. It has been a complete success from government owned telephones to city owned street railways. The Calgary Municipal Street Railway provides modern cars, an up-to- date service, and this year will show a profit of $250,000. The railway strives to please the pub~ lic. Tt adheres to its time sched- ules, extends its tracks to keep pace with the needs of the city and has no object in dodging promises, The cars are properly equipped with aisles, electric push buttons and separate exits and entrances. They all carry a sign, ‘Please pay as you enter.” The accent is on the please. The people are polite to the people. Nearly all the cities and towns own their light, power, water and other utilities. They are jealous of any encroachment on the pub- lic ownership idea. As I men- tioned hefore, Medicine Hat turned down a= street railway proposition because it smelt faintly of private ownership, and Lethbridge refused to deal with a natural gas company because a contvact would tie up its streets rer {wenty years. The underly- ing and abiding intention of any Alberta city is to begin right with these vital matters and to stay right.—H. F. G., in the Toronto Star.

It affects each customer with the composite personality of its man- temperament. agement and staff. There are stores and stores. There are “grouchy” stores and “smiling” stores. | here are flip- pant stores and dignified stores. And the peculiar thing about each is that the goods or the prices have little to do with the store's temperament. It is the personality of the store that colors and defines the character of the goods from the custom- er's view-point and wins or re- pels approval. The temperament or person- ality of a store is vividly ex- pressed in its face. The face of a store is its advertising. You can judge a store by its adver- tising the same as you can judge a man by his facial expression. The service store is the “‘serving”’ store. It is also the honest-advertising store. this, you may know it always—anywhere.
