There is one vital part of our war effort which depends on you. Your government has placed a "ceiling" on retail prices. You are the buyers of four out of every five dollars worth of all the goods sold in this country. Your wholeâ€" hearted help is needed in this price control plan. If every woman does her part, it cannot fail. We want you to sit down today and make a list of the things you buy from week to week and from month to month. Write down food and clothing items in particular, because these account for the biggest share of your expenditures. But Now go over your list again and mark down the necesâ€" sary details about quality, type, grade and size. Then when making future purchases you will be able to compare values 4. â€" Make a list of commodities we want you to list those articles you buy at the drug store, hardware store, and other stores, too. 2. â€"Make notes about quality as well as prices. To ensure the success of this price control plan, every woman in Canada should make a list. Retailers are showing a splendid spirit of coâ€"operation. The great majority of them arc determined to make this plan work, but if you do not coâ€" operate the whole plan might fail â€" prices might start to skyrocket. So keep your list handy. Check the prices you pay against it. _ ,, Heads Millbank W. A. Group surer showed $269.44 was raised by the organization through the year. The election of officers was conâ€" ducted'!:{ Rev. C.

The highest prices in any particular store must not be higher than the highest prices in force in that store during the period September 15 to October 11. They mv be a little lower or a little higher than the prices in There has always been a difference in prices in different storesâ€"even stores in the same locality. This may depend on the kind of service the store gives, or the way it operates. Some stores, for instance, have delivery service, give credit, or provide other extra services.

Will you, then, undertake to make the successful control of commodity prices an established fact? We know you will. And we know that when you undertake this task it is as good as done. Our survey shows that retailers, with few exceptions, are kcc‘;icng prices well within the "‘ceiling"* levels. As exceptions are being discovered they are being quickly brought into line. 4.

A merchant may reduce his prices for sales or other reasonsâ€"he may also raise them provided they do not go above the ceiling price. 3. Variations in seasonal prices on fresh fruits and vegeâ€" tables are permitted. Rulings on seasonal markets will be anâ€" nounced from time to time by the Wartime Prices and Trade Board in newspapers and over the radio. 4. Fill out your price list without bothering your merchant. In many cases he is making a financial sacrifice to sell under the price ceiling. The war has left him short staffed and the Christâ€" mas rush is on. 1. The ceiling price is not necessarily the price yow paid. It is the highest price at which the store sold the particular item between September 15 and October 11. Raymond Good Named Head If a price seems higher than the ceiling, ask your merchant ibout it.
