Business Plans Price Increases
In spite of the recent easing of some prices, a poll conducted by the University of Western Ontario shows that leading business men believe that the cost of living will continue to climb during the next six months. The poll covered more than 200 companies, 90 percent of which were large concerns with assets in excess of a million dollars. Business men are obviously best qualified to forecast what will happen to prices of their own products. In the case of firms which offer goods at specific prices, 42 percent of the executives replying to the poll stated that their prices will probably rise by April and 78 percent expect a rise by July.

LITTLE BOY IN WOODSHED:
"Father, did grandpa spank you when you were a little boy?" • Father: "Yes, son."
Little Boy: "And did great-grandpa spank grandpa when he was a little boy?"
Father: "Yes, son."
Little Boy: "And did great-great-grandpa spank great-grandpa?"
Father: "Yes."
Little Boy: "Well, don't you think with my help you could overcome this inherited rowdyism?"
ON THE BEACH a genial fat man watched a group of shapely young ladies in scanty swim suiis as they went through their morning setting-up exercises.
"Do */ou think this sort of thing is really good for reducing?" a sour-visaged acquaintance demanded.
"Unquestionably!" beamed the fat man. "Why, I walk three miles every morning to watch it!"
"THEY SAY a sharp nose indicates curiosity."
"That's right—and a flattened one may indicate too much curiosity."
A BRIDE, shopping for fish was was trying to impress the fishmonger with her know-how, in spite of the fact that she really was ignorant when it came to piscatorial affairs. She objected to first one and the:1, another of the man's offerings, pretending to find something the matter with each.
Finally she said hautily: "I just don't like the looks of any of these." "
"Lady," replied the man wearily, "if it's looks you're after, why don't you buy a gold fish?"

Some Ideas For Selling Salmon
Editor, The Fisherman:
Canned salmon is here and not in the old country. Why don't we sell it? It is (Lent) the beef has been indisposed, you know, foot and mouth — besides, they are in Alberta. Yes, sell it. Fish keep us all in jobs, starting from the top office down to the lowly fish and their helpers. How do we sell it to ourselves? Two heads are better than one. Let's have a contest and call it "Why Don't They." We want everybody's idea. A prize or money could be given for each idea published. The advertisers of our own product, the fish, must have fallen overboard as I do not see very much advertising except for people who read. Some people see so much that they don't see anything. (That's Irish, but St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner.)
Canada Packers have been trying to solve their shortage during the embargo on meat into B.C- by putting on two weeks in the Hudson's Bay Company called "Canada Packers Week." There they have a booth in the grocery department with all the different products and demonstrators to show the public what is in the can and how to prepare a pretty lunch or a good, big meal.
I know this is one of the best ways to get it to the public. Everything tastes so good, and the ideas that the demonstrators suggest, just get the cooks and the snackers in the mood — I should know — that is a real way to bring the product to the public because I have been in charge of this Hudson's Bay demonstration for the past two weeks. The Hudson's Bay and Canadian Packers both feel that this is the real way to make their products roll out through those wickets.
There is a magazine called "The Canadian Trades Alphabet" that the school children subscribe to. I noticed when it came to the "S" of the alphabet, there was a page devoted to the salmon by the Canadian Fishing Company.
There was also an invitation to the students to visit the company and see the operation. Now that could be carried further. What is to hinder one of these booths for demonstration being all in readiness? When guests arrive, have a demonstrator slip into the booth, snap out the can opener and the fixings, be ready with the samples and the cute recipes, a good line and a welcome smile.
The staff could all grow a pot of parsley on their desks for decorating the plate and supply that touch of green. They could be doing their little part, for as the old saying goes, "It's not the piece of fish but the parsley round the dish that tickles the dear old man." Let's have some more suggestions on how to get our canned goods on the table in our own country.

ALTERNATIVE VOTING
WILL BE USED IN THE COMING
PROVINCIAL ELECTION
HERE'S WHY THE NEW SYSTEM IS BEING USED
The Voting system has been changed to enable every voter to cast his ballot for more than one candidate in order of his preference.
% • •
When you vote under the Alternative Vote system YOU GET MORE THAN ONE CHOICE. This will prevent any candidate being elected on a minority vote as has happened in the past. The candidate so elected in each riding 'will have received an absolute majority over all other candidates combined.
IT'S FAIR!
