FOR CENTRAL HEATING PLANT Canadian Newspaper Warmly Advo- cates Such a Scheme, on Eco- nomic and Other Grounds. by-law to spend $25.000 on a central heating plant for the business section. It is erecting a new fire hall and takes advantage of the opportunity. Owen Sound is said to have a similar scheme under consideration. This is an avenue of small-towa development that will be much more extensively traveled in the future, remarks the To- ronto (Can.) Mail and Empire. Ontario towns are usually compact, the streets used for business intersect each other, and with the advent of modern heat- fng systems in the stores and fac- tories, the ‘economlic possibilities of a central heating plant are exceptionally good. Many cities and towns in the United States have adopted the sys- tem, and results have been very satis- factory. Instead of two dozen fur- naces, two dozen firemen, one big plant handled by about three men, does the whole business. Modern insulating methods prevent loss of steam and heat underground and the service is usually better than any home system. The obtaining of. coal is such a prob- Yem nowadays for the ordinary mer- chant and factory operator that the putting of responsibility on a civic plant would be a great relief. The uitimate saving, once the heating equipment Is fnstalled, ‘ought to be thousands of dollars a year. In man/ of the small Ontario towns stores are still heated by stoves, or hot-air fur- naces, using anthracite coal. The sta- tistics of the relative cost of steam heat cannot be made up without con- sideration of local conditions, because pipe-laying, radiator installation and plant costs vary with the size of the project, and the location of the prem- ises to be heated. But the innovation 18 one that should commend itself to the notice of all town councils. WRONG KIND OF ADVERTISING Signboard Display May Catch the Eye r for a Moment, but It Does Ncot Make Friends. An important function of advertis- ing is in creating good will. The per- manent, lasting value of an advertis ing campalgn is in the good will it creates. Signboards can do little toward creating good will and may istir up a lot of i1l will. ‘There are certain classes of adver- ‘tising that must be handled in a dig- ‘pified manner, otherwise the advertis- #ng may do more harm than good. If the information received Is cor- rect, various garden clubs have nlrem}_v protested against the use of signboards ' hy florists. which shows “the way the wind blows™ regarding public senti- ment. It has been proposed that motorists erganize to rid our highways of the grotesque obstructive signs. Each mem- ber Is to agree not to purchase any goods advertised on signboards. That will be an effective way to clear up the situation. This « < the florists good advice and gets their stogan before our read- ers, hoth of which it is hoped will be protitable.—New York Times. Trees on Roadsides. Believing that the problem of road- side planting should not be entirely get aside during the movement for a greater mileage of Improved highways, fctive steps are now being taken by ¢the New York state motor federation and the state college of forestry at Syracuse for the aevelopment of a planting scheme for the section of the highway running from Syracuse to Utica. a distanece of about sixty miles. It has been demonstrated by those in charge of the work that aside from the purely ornamental value of trees along the highway, many practical benefits would result from their prop- er use. It is not generally realized that trees, by means of their shade during hot summer months, prolong the life of the roaaway for many wyears, and road experts in general are heartily in favor of tnis means of road wrotection. : GIRLS MAKE GOOD ON DOUBLE JOBS Capable “bookkeeper-sten- ographers” are always in great demand and earn good salaries.
