DUPLICATION IS RIFE (Alliston Herald) A stranger stopped at Hunter's garage one evening last week to get a little chore done on his car and. while waiting asked if Carleton's bak- ery was located in Alliston. On being told that it was, the stranger fcold of seeing a car come out of â-  farm premises some distance ahead of him and on passing it saw that it was delivering bread for the AUia- ton bakery. Coming to the gate !from which the Alliston car had emerged, was another baker's deliv- ei-y truck going in. This time it waa a Barrie bakery and when about a mile past the place a third truck waa met. The stranger observed that it is all the delivery trucks running round the country duplicating the routes that keeps the price of bread up. Many Allistonians will recall •that during the election campaign of 'i935 when Dr. W. D. Smith was a candidate for the legislature one of his topics when on the platform waa the duplication of cream routes in the country. Whether the doctor ev- er took the matter up in caucus waa never made public, but it is the du- plication of a lot of things that is Responsible for the high prices of numerous commodities.

MaxweU Strawberry Festival ARRESTED AS A SWINDLER A man about forty-six years of age giving the name of Joshua Cop- persmith has been arrested in New York for attempting to extort funds from ignorant and superstitious peo- ple by exhibiting a device which he says will convey the human voice any distance over metallic wires so that it will be heard by the listener at the other end. He calls the instrument a "telephone,'' which is obviously in- ^nded to imitate the word "tele- )?rraph" and win the confidence of those who know the success of the latter instrument without under- standing the principles on which it is htigd. Well-informed ~ people know that it is impossible to trans- mit the human voice over wires as 4nay be done with dots and dashes and signals of the Morse Code, and ^hat, were it poasible to do so, the thing would be of no practical value. The authorities who apprehended this criminal are to be congratulated, and it is hoped that his punishment will be prompt and fitting, so that it may serve as an example to other ronscienceless schemers who enrich *fhernsielves at the expense of their fellow-men. â€" Reprinted from a Bos- ton newspaper of 6t years ago.
