W. A. C. Forman, chairman of the Business Promotion Commit­ tee, explained the details in connect­ ion with last year’s campaign and stated that every possible effort had been put forth to increase business in Ingersoll and he believed, the campaign had been well worth while.

Love said the exe- cOive had a lot of work to do and it was a hard job to get the 130 members signed up and run the campaign, to suit each individual, but on the whole he felt things had been most satisfactory.

INGERSOLL.JUVENILES CAPTUIOOUND 9-7 Sarnia Held To Four All Tie In Second Game At Sarnia, But Lost First Game Here 5-3. Ingersoll Juveniles advanced a step further towards the Ontario Amateur Hockey Championship by holding the fast Sarnia six to a four all tie in the second game of the round played at Sarnia on Friday evening last. The local kids took the first contest here on Wednesday night by a five-three score and cai- ried a two goal lead to the border city with them. The game was a weal battle and the local boys report the going tough. Sarnia opened the scoring by putting two past Barrons in the opening min­ utes of play to even up the round. The Ingersoll lads soon ^acclimatized themselves to the Sarnia rink and in the last few minutes «of the first stanza, scored three goals in quick succession. Clarence Woodman was responsible for the first, Raymond Connor, counted goal number two and the third tally was shot in the nets by Sam Douglas. The period ended Ingersoll, 3; Sarnia, 2. Sarnia secured the only counter in the second period, which ended three all. The home team stepped into the lead in the first few minutes of play in the last stanza. This period found both teams battling hard with most of the play centering around the Ingersoll goal. With but five minutes of play left and Sarnia down one goal on the round, they took off their goalie and replaced him with a forward, putting six men up on the attack. Barrons proved invincible however, and about half a minute before the final gong, Jim Hender­ son broke through to even fho count on the game and give Ingersoll the round by a 9-7 score. The teams:— • Ingersoll—Goal, Bill Barrons; de­ fence, Lome Mills and Jim Jamieson; centre, Jim Henderson; wings, Clar­ ence Woodman and Raymond Con­ nor; subs., Tom Daniels, Bob. Hen­ derson, Harold Burton, Cecil Connor and Sam Douglas. ■ Sarnia—Goal, Heffron; defence, Davis and Finan; centre, Kirkland; wings, Garvin and Fulkerson; subs., Williams, Kelch, Bolton, Hayes and Cole. Referee—George Hayes, Ingersoll. A number from Ingersoll'were in Toronto last week- for the Annual Toronto Skating Club Coptival held in the Maple Leaf Gardens.

L SMITH ADDRESSEDINGERSOLL KIWANISInteresting Description of Ex­periences Encountered andPlaces of Interest Visited OnMotor Trip To Pacific Coast Last Summer. P. L. Smith, local business man, who with Mrs. Smith took a three month motor trip to the Pacific Coast last summer, gave a most inter­ esting and descriptive talk on points of interest visited at the regular weekly meeting of the Ingersoll Ki- wanis Club held at the Ingersoll Inn on Thursday evening last Kiwanian Dr. C. A. Osborn, vice- president of the club, was the meet­ ing chairman and introduced the speaker. Several matters of business were discussed at the meeting and a report on the “At Home”, showed a substantial sum raised after all ex­ penses were paid. Mr. Smith used a number of sket­ ches to illustrate and explain the places and points of interest he des­ cribed in his talk. He first referred to the Grand Canyon of Colorado, the size and grandeaur of which he said was impossible to describe in words. This {was a sight that one little ex­ pected to see when they planned on visiting this world wonder. It was ten miles wide and its depth was twenty-five times as great as that from the top of Niagara Falls to the water level of the river below. The Colorado river, which was over three hundred feet wide, appeared as a ribbon .winding its way through the valley when viewed from the top of the Canyon. The silence was most appalling and there was a d’fference of fifty degrees in temperatuf' be­ tween the top and bottom, Mr. Smith said. A visit to San Francisco, one of the largest and oldest cities on the Pacific coast, was of particular in­ terest Mr. Smith explained, in that he was able to view the two new bridges that were opened there last year, the Oakland-San Francisco bridge and the Golden Gate bridge, spanning the entrance to the har­ bor. . The speaker described the sizes of these bridges, the first one being some 790 feet from the top of the towers to the bottom of the piers and eight miles in length from the approaches. In the busy rush hour, there would be some 3,000 cars and JO electric trains as well as many hundreds of trucks passing at one lime over this bridge. In passing, I he mentioned the fact that the force of the recent gales in the United States had blown the bridge some 12 feet out of line, but the engineers in constructing, had allowed for a possible 18 foot move of the bridge. The Golden Gate Bridge was a single span structure, 2100 feet be­ tween the towers with a clearance of 236 fceLfrom the water level of the bay to the floor level of the bridge. Mr. Smith dwelt at some length on the construction work observed at the Coulee dam which is being built on the Columbia river by the United States Government as a power and a irrigation project It is estimated that it will take 35 years to complete the-project and the cost has been set at $394,000,000 Mr. Smith stated. He told of the incident in the construction of the dam where the contractors were faced with an impending slide of rock at the beginning of the-construction work which ^would have added tre­ mendously to the cost of the project. This, however, was averted by care­ ful thought on the part of one of the younger engineers who thought of a scheme of installing an ice plant and freezing the ground. The speaker told of the great dif­ ference of opinion that had entered into the question as to the value of London Companions VisitPrincess Louise CircleAt the regular meeting of Prin­cess Louise Circle, Companions of theForest Lodge, No. 106, held in theL O. O. F. hall on Thursday even­ing, the Circle had as their guestsa large number of members from Princess Magnolia Circle of London, with their degree team. Four new candidates were received into the Circle and the degree was conferred by the London team. Com­ panion Irene Anthony was in charge of the meeting and following the work of the evening, short speeches were given by High Sub-Chief Com­ panion Mrs. Scott, D.D. Companion Mrs. Bowem and Chief Companion, Mrs. Little of London, also the local District Deputy Companion, Mrs. Charles Fleischer. Progressive euchre was later enjoyed, after .which a hot supper was served by the members of the local Circle. The prize win­ ners for the euchre were: Travelling prizes, Comp. Hillard and Comp. Scott of London; ladies’ high score, Comp. Williams, London; ladies’ sec­ ond high, Mrs. E. Luno, Ingersoll; consolation, Comp. Evans, London and Comp. Mrs. Wm. Elford, Inger- fcoll; table prize, Comp. Mrs. Roy Owen, Ingersoll. Dorchester Garage Gutted By Fire Dorchester—The fire bell which for some time had no need to ring, once again broke the silence and sounded out the alarm. Shortly after 9 a.m on Thursday last, when the large garage owned by R. M. O’Byrene, on the Hamilton Road, was discovered on fire. The building was leased by RfR. Jelly, automobile dealer, who used the front part as a show room and one room was used as a refreshment booth. A new truck, seve'ral used cars and a car and cabin trailer were destroyed as the big building burned. Two houses on either side of the garage building were damaged one owned by Mr. O’Byrene, the garage owner and the other owned by John Abbott, and tenanted by Clarence Smith and family. Furniture from Loth houses was removed by willing workers who arrived to assist in fighting the flames. When the blaze was discovered, it had gained considerable headway and before the cars could be taken out, the fire was sweeping through the entire building, and attention was then centered on the two houses. Fire fighting apparatus from Lon­ don and Belmont was rushed to the scene and soon got the blaze under control, but not before several hun­ dred dollars’ damage had been done to each house. According to Mr. Jelly, the loss incurred in the des­ truction of the garage itself would be in the neighborhood of $7,000. In addition to the truck and used cars that were burned, the Harrietsville Telpehone Company lost two trailers and some valuable equipment Mr. Jelly estimated his own personal loss at approximately $2,000. Ironically enough, a deputation from the village a week ago went to St Williams concerning the pos­ sible purchase of a pumper. In vil­ lage circles it was predicted that the fire would result in speedy action for local fire protection. “LOVELY LADIES”_MADE A HITIn spite of the many counter at­tractions, there were good attend­ances at both presentations of theplay, “Lovely Ladies,” a farce in three acta by James F. Stone, given by members, of the Learn-To-Do- Well Mission Circle of Trinity Unit- ed Church, in the Sunday School hall on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings last, under the direction of Bruce Barham. The entire action of the play took place in the sitting room of a suite in an exclusive New York hotel and the action was fast and interesting in the extreme. The players were as follows: “Mary Lamb," a bride in distress, Margaret Bower; “Wilma Williams," a constant friend, Mrs. Joseph A. Wilson; “Caroline Jones,” a harrass- ed bridesmaid," Esther Green; “Min­ nie," a maid with a future, Loh McClatchie; “Mrs. George Crunch,” a female major-domo, Doris Shuttle­ worth; “Gloria Crunch," a girl in love with love, Jean Wilford; “Mar­ ion Van Arsdale,” a falling star, Mrs. Bernie Zurbrigg; “Nanette," a girl from a gown shop, Helen Haw­ kins; "Teresa," a girl with a job, Rosalie Walker; “Sally Bowman,” a girl with a nose for news, Mrs. Gor­ don W. Daniels; "Greta,” a girl from Sweden, Helen Bower. Great credit is due the director, also Don. Wilson, who was in charge of the sound effects used throughout the play and thanks are extended to P. T. Walker, who kindly loaned the furniture. Between the acts, mem­ bers of the C. G. I. T. sold home­ made candy. On Wednesday evening the audi­ ence was entertained between the acts, with a piano duet, “Humor­ esque," by the Misses Jean Daniels and Joyce Hawkins. Andrew Dodds PassesAway SuddenlyDorchester—Mr. Andrew Dodds,who celebrated his 80th birthday onMarch 1st, passed away suddenly atthe old homestead, south of this vil­lage. Deceased who passed away with a heart attack, had lived all his life on the farm where he passed away, until the last few years. He was a member of the Nilestown Masonic Lodge. He was twice married, child­ ren of the first marriage were: Claire, with whom he resided; Ross, of Clute, Northern Ontario, and Mrs. Barbour of Brantford. Mr. Dodds later married Miss Isabella Woods, who predeceased him 18 years* ago. Three daughters survive: Miss Etta Dodds, B.N., of SL Thomas; Mrs. Berne Jones of Port Stanley, and Mrs. Percy Oliver, Dorchester. Fun­ eral services were held from R. A. Logan’s Funeral Parlors on Monday, with Rev. Scobie of Wilton Grove, in Death of An InfantThe sympathy of their manyfriends is extended to Mr. and Mrs.Melvin Sharpe, 131 King Hiramstreet, in the death of their dearlybeloved and only son, Jack Leroy,who passed away early Mondaymorning, March T4th. The child who was five and a half months old, was taken ill on Saturday. He is sur­ vived by his parents, two sisters, De­ lores and Bertha, and two grand­ mothers, Mrs. Maude Sharpe, Inger­ soll and Mrs. Catherine Granger, The funeral was held from tho residence of his parents, 131 King Hiram street, to the Ingersoll R^ral Cemetery, on Wednesday afternoon, service being conducted at the house at two o’clock. the construction of the dams and irri­ gation, some being in favor of the work because of the ultimate produce to be gained from now arid and un­ fertile lands and others feeling that the cost of the work to get ready for such an undertaking .would far out­ do any possible return as the loca­ tion of the enterprise would make it merely a sink-hole for American dollars—that consumer market would not be of nearly sufficient value in comparison with the expense of the irrigation-dam project. This project also created a problem in the salmon fishing industry, which many persons in that part of the country depend. The dam, the speaker said in closing, was claimed by Americans to be the last great wonder of the world. Charles K. Hoag, on behalf of the jelub, expressed the thanks of the members to Mr. Smith for his inter­ esting talk. Mrs. George Matheson St Columba Hostess 'The regular monthly meeting of the St Columba Women’s Missionary Auxiliary was held on Tuesday after­ noon at the home of Mrs. George Matheson, with an unusually large attendance, nearly every member being present The president Mrs. Walter Hutchison, was in charge of the meeting which opened with tho singing of a hymn, prayer by Mrs. John Matheson and the scripture lesson read by Mrs. Fred Adam.

Mrs. Wilfred Hutchison read ,a chapter from the new study book, “A New Church For a New World." A paper on the theme, “Home Missions,” was given by Mrs. James McBeth and a selected reading was contributed by Mrs. Walter Montague. Miss Jean McCall sang a delightful vocal number and the meeting was brought to a close with the singing of a hymn followed by sentence prayers by Mrs. George McKay and Mrs. Erwood Kerr. The Lord’s Prayer was repeated in unison after which Group No. 2 served lunch. Wedded 45 Years Mr. and Mrs. Cyrus Furtney Cele­ brated Anniversary on March 8th.

That is important because, before creditbegun to be extended to practically everybody, the markets for almost every kind of goods were limited to those who had saved up cash enough to pay for them "on the nail,” or who had property assets which could be attached if they failed to keep their promise-* to pay.The widespread distribution of all sorts of commod­ ities in America, things which used to be considered luxuries only for the rich and are still so considered in other countries, is due to the recognition by busi­ ness men and bankers of the essential honesty of most people. Over a period of many years it has been demonstrated that ordinary people of average in­ comes will pay their debts—keep their promises— sooner or later. To be sure, there are laws to com­ pel people to keep their promises, but in practical ex­ perience these are seldom invoked. Our whole economic structure is based on promises, in the final analysis. An man takes a job on the employer’s promise to pay him a certain sum at given intervals. He puts his wages in a bank and gets the banker’s promise to return it to him when he wants it The bank lends the money to someone else who promises to repay it at a certain time. One buys an insurance policy or a bond. What he gets is a promise. When the time comes for the promise to be kept, the fulfilment of it is usually in the form of another promise—a piece of paper on which one of the chartered banks of Canada promises to pay a certain sum on demand. The economic system breaks down when too large a proportion of people who have made promises find themselves unable to make good. Even then, the distress is only temporary. The whole history of our system is that, in the long run, most promises are kept. Prices Still Rising Commodity prices have risen, since February, 1933, by 32 per cent on the average, according to Professor E. W. Kemmerer of Princeton University. Prof. Kem­ merer is a world-famous economist. Therefore, when he says “this is inflation,” and predicts that prices will rise nearly 70 per cent higher and the cost of living will double, what he says is not to be easily laughed off. Prof. Kemmerer is not alone in those predictions. (Four-fifths of the members of the American Econ­ omic Association are on record that the present trend is toward dangerous inflation of money and credit. Prudent investors are heeding these warnings and striving to protect themselves against the consequen­ ces by putting their funds into non-perishable com­ modities, or contracts for the future delivery of com­ modities at present prices. This is a time for people to go into debt for the purchase of goods to be paid for in the future, the economists say. One of the safest investments is in building property, for real estate and building prices are among the commodi­ ties most certainly due to increase in dollar value. As prices go up, the value of the dollar goes down, but a debt expressed in dollars can always be paid in dollars, no matter how cheap the dollar may go. Econ­ omists think that it is prudent to buy residential or business property with as large and long term mort­ gage as possible, in the expectation that in a few years it can be sold at a huge profit. frequently into other states and in the Provinces ofthe Dominion of Canada, there wean* to be no wayin the United States except by Federal interferenceto make the highway .safe In a sense, the proposedbill amounts to bribing backward states to do whatconsideration for the safety of their own peopleshould impel them to do.Such a law might well go even farther and requireevery car licensed to carry insurance for the benefitof any possibly accident victims, as the state of Mw-sachusetts does. This plan might be wisely adoptedby our own Legislature or as a Federal measure as itwould tend to make our highways more safe and serveas a protection to any accident victims. Good Neighbors The farmer has a big advantage over his city cou­ sin. He has good neighbors, in the truest sense of the term. The city dweller may not know his next- door neighbor by his first name, particularly if he is a comparative newcomer. The farmer knows his next neighbor, and his neighbors for miles around. He knows that he can depend upon them in a time of trouble, that they are at his beck and call at any time he needs them. TH E DOC TOR Tells The Story by W. E. AUGHINBAUGH. M.D. THE STORY OF DOCTOR STORK When Dr. S. T. Shelly entered Mulvane, Kansas, astride the deck of a hay-burning automobile, other­ wise known as a horse, in 1880 fresh from medical school, he had no idea that fifty-five years later he would be the center of one of the most enthusiastic and different celebrations ever extended anyone by a community. During the years that he engaged in practice in that little town and the surrounding country, he had ush­ ered 4,500 children into the world, so the parents of these children, the children themselves, declared a three day festival, in which “Doctor Stork” as he was affectionately known to all, was featured, toasted, congratulated and presented with a document express­ ing the sentiments of his neighbors and patients. In talking with the good Doctor, he told me he arrived in town on a pony that he bought for $15.00 and opened an office with only $2.40 in real money in his pocket. He was 23 years of age then and faced the future with a heart full of confidence and good will toward men. While he ,was hanging up his sign a man hastened to him and asked “Are you the doctor?” Replying in the affirmative, the man grab­ bed him by the arm and said: “Come with me imme­ diately.” With his brand new medical kit in his hand he hurried to a house and shortly the population of Mulvane was increased by one fine boy. From that time on, rain or shine, hot or cold, night or day, Dr. Shelly ministered to the sick. “What was your most unusual experience, doctor?” I queried. “Well,” he answered, “one pitch dark night when it was raining cats and dogs, I went into the country to usher another little one into this world of trouble. Whqp we came to Cowskin Creek, the ford was high with water, and my horse and I were both swept in turning over and over and finally landing a mile down stream, more dead than alive. But I got to the home in time and attended my patient in my wet clothes. There was no time to waste.” And the people in Mulvane say he has never lost a mother and child. FIFTY-NINE YEARS AGO "AS A WOMAN SEES IT”— By Arabella — Young Men Exaggerate Young men are prone to exaggerate borne of en­ thusiasm. Or is it vision? The Rotarian Magazine notes a reference by Kathleen Norris, the authoress, to her brother^ebulient forecast when he came home one day, at the age of fourteen, to tell his mother about the marvelous new machine, the tele­ phone, then in its earliest stages of development, in the Gay Nineties. The lad predicted spiritedly that when large hotels ■were built in the future there would be a telephone on the first floor also on the top and Intervening floors, “so that folks won’t have to go all the way down to the first floor to answer the phone.” To which the mother, who was one with her generation, replied: “And that, son, is the kind of exaggeration which makes the world laugh at you.” The world has taken a long time to learn that it is not always safe to laugh. But it is learning. The rapid forward march of science in the last few decades has developed a new outlook on such mat­ ters. There are many people living today, who, in their youth, scorned the notion that the automobile could ever replace the faithful horse, sniffed at air­ planes as dangerous and utterly impractical play­ things, and regarded radio as a mad-man’s dream sensationalized by a foolish press. But the children of these same people have lost much of thaf inherent skepticism. True they do not accept every Mun­ chausen tale they hear, but they know too much of what has been accomplished within the last few years to doubt that still more will be accomplished in the immediate future. And to a large degree their elders have caught the spirit of the time and corrected the short-sightedness of a less inventive From the Files of The Oxford Tribune, Wednesday,' March 19th, 1879 A measure to provide for female suffrage has been rejected by the British House of Commons by a vote of more than two to one- Nevertheless, that vote indicates that the friends of the proposal are increas­ ing in numbers. - <-■ ’For Safer Motoring A bill has bedn introduced in both Houses of Con­ gress in the United States providing that no more federal-aid highway funds shall be allotted to any state which has not an adequate safety code for mot­ orists, "particularly with respect to tjre licensing of drivers and the operation of vehicles.” That strikes us as a sound and sensible idea. There are still mapy states across the border in which no licenses of any kind are required forUrivers. Child­ rens of any age, cripples, anybody at all may drive, and it. is ia those states that the largest proportion of highway accidents and ’ deaths occur. There are other .states in which the issuing'of a driving license ia a mere formality, no adequate test of the appli­ cants ability to manage a ear being required. In these days when cars from every state travel so New maple sugar and syrup made its appearance on the market yesterday, and was not long in being disposed of at good figures. _ Mr. Bradford Galloway who for the past two years has been studying in Ann Arbor, Mich., for the medi­ cal profession, returned home on Saturday for a short visit The firm of A. Oliver & Co., are busily engaged in tearing away their old planing mill and furnishing factory, which we understand, is to be replaced by a much larger and more substantial structure of brick and stone. The old building has long been an eye-sore to the locality and jwe are pleased to note the im­ provement The prospect of a railway passing through'the township of East Nissouri is causing, not a little ex­ citement amongst the farmers at the present time. It begins to look like business as the route has already been surveyed. The proposed railway, if built, will be an extension of the Credit Valley Road from Wood- stock, by way of Embro and the lakeside, through to the "Stone Town,” and so on to some point on LakeHuron. The concert delivered in the town hall on Monday evening, by the Messrs. W. and R. Tandy, assisted by the choir of the King Street Methodist Church and other local talent, was attended by a large and ap­ preciative audience. As Mrs. Ira Empey was driving a horse and buggy along Thames street near the railway crossing, the horse became frightened and ran away. The buggy struck against a telegraph post opposite Keating’s Hotel and, the lady ,was thrown out with great force causing concussion of the hndn. During the past few days about 6000 boxes have been bought by Ingersoll buyers at prices ranging from 6c to 8c. Mr. John Adams, the proprietor of the East Nissouri Cheese Factory, has announced the sixteenth annual meeting of the patrons of this factory to take place at the factory, Lot 7, Concession 13, on Wednesday, March 20th. THE SHAMROCK ISLEIreland has experienced many saddays, but it is doubtful whether anyhave been sadder than that 17th ofMarch in the year 465, when he whoIrad carried the message of the Crossto her people, was taken from them.St. Patrick was their beloved pas­ tor, travelling the length and breadth of the country in his efforts to con­ vert the pagans. Places named in his honor record the extent of his travels; such as Innis-patrick, where he first landed in Ireland, Holmpat- rick, Sabbal-patrick, Temple-patrick, Croagh-patrick, Domnach-patrick, St. Patrick's Wood, etc.; while his visits to England, Wales and Scotland, the latter reputed to have been his birth­ place, are also recorded by Patter­ dale, Kirkpatrick, Sarn-Badrig, Llan- Badrig, Portpatrick, Dalpatnck, Crag-Phadrig, to name only a few. These are all cherished spots to this day, but the most cherished of all is in Downpatrick, where a huge granite slab marks the burial place of the saint. It seems highly prob­ able that St. Patrick pointed to the Shamrock as an illustration of three- in-one when explaining the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. So that not only Irishmen, but all Christians have reason to hold in particular re­ gard, that little plant—that grows no place else—as a remainder of a great truth and a deep mystery. As well as their sadness, the Irish have a capacity for wit that makes theflm beloved wherever they go— Who but an Irishwoman could have so dealt .with an unscrupulous vendor on the Ingersoll Market, as we know one did? A chicken was-displayed on Jhe counter, with a large portion of ' the breast-meat missing, Erin’s daughter enquired what had happen­ ed to the fowl. “Oh”, said the ven­ dor, “the cat got into the pantry and ate it.” “Well,” replied the enquirer, “you had better take it home and let the cat finish it: Do you think the people in this town want your cat’s leavings?” But be it remembered that just as a picture requires form as well as ,, color to make it definite, so must life have more than wit. And the Irish­ man wh$> combines both is practically assured of success, as is evidenced in all walks of life, the world over. Perhaps there was more courage than wit in the actioh of Elizabeth Fitzgerald, as related by George A. Birmingham in his fine book, “The Lighter Side of Irish Life,” when she found her castle besieged by the O’Cahills and her husband held cap­ tive by them, the besiegers demand­ ing the’surrender of the former, before they would release the latter. Mistress Fitzgerald who seemed to have little regard for the man who had stupidly run the risk of being captured, by walking about the grounds, replied that probably she could get another husband more eas­ ily than she could get another castle. So she allowed the O’Cahill’s to keep Mr. Fitzgerald who paid dearly for his indiscretion by hanging. Sometimes it is thought that a meeting between Irishmen of oppo­ site religious views is sure to lead to trouble. But Mr. Birmingham cites a case to show that such a view is erroneous. A Protestant clergyman in a country parish had become care­ less in tending his’ flock, so that they had wandered. One day. he was startled on receiving word that his bishop was to visit him, for he knew that his meagre congregation would make a poor showing, and that he would be lectured for his negligence. On taking his problem to the Roman Catholic priest he was assured that, there was no need to worry for he would see that there was a good con­ gregation to greet the bishop. Fancy the surprise of the Roman Catholics on the Sunday morning when they were informed that they would at­ tend thd\ Protestant Church in a body! One can just hear the Irish yoke of the priest as he said, “let every one of you behave yourselves, and if you are in doubt what to do, keep your eye on me.” All went well, and the bishop congratulated the rector on his splendid congrega­ tion, whereas he was more to be con­ gratulated on having one who was a friend in need and-a friend in deed. The same friendliness prevails in Canada. In a town not far from Ingersoll, a Roman Cathoik priest who was ill, was taken to the manse, where he was nursed back to health bp the Scots minister and his wife. The Irish are said to be very sup­ erstitious, which is usual among people living close to nature, who learn to observe the signs and sea­ sons for protection. So that mapy so-called superstitions are supported by common sense—as in the case where it is said to be Bad luck to put- three lamps on a table. The danger in such a case makes it unlucky.. So in meeting on the stair*. In the early days, staircases ’ had no balus­ trades, and in some eases were very narrow, so that a meeting did prewatdanger. It m more difficult for usto understand the Irish fear of red-haired women, unleu it is that inthat country where dark hair pre­dominates, a red-haired womanwould be so unusual that she wouldbe considered super-natural. Irishpeople will go a long distance out oftheir way to avoid passing one.We all know that Ireland producesthe flnest linen in the world. Butperhaps it is not generally knownthat she also produces the finesthorses and the finest lions. Not only do Irishmen raise lions, but they are experts at taming them. So, let Englishmen beware! H. V. Morton in "In Search of Ireland," describes his visit to the Dublin Zoo. In fact he was invited to breakfast there, which caused many interesting conjectures on his part, until he found that neither he nor the ani­ mals were to provide the piece de resistance, for he found himself a guest of the Council of the Royal Zoological Society of Ireland. It seems that that august body like many other organizations, had diffi­ culty in getting members to attend the meetings. So back in 1837, it was decided to serve breakfast be­ fore the meetings and since then the weekly attendance has been satisfac­ tory. If anyone^ finds it irksome to make cakes or sandwiches for meet­ ings, let them think of the Dublin Zoo and be glad that it is necessary to provide breakfast. Mr. Morton found a great differ­ ence between the Dublin lions and “debauched-iooking, string-h o c k e d monarchs of the jungle who sit in dreadful apathy with tear-ducts at the corner of their eyes-and moth in the tail,” which are to be seen in some zoos and circuses. For the for­ mer are to lion-lovers, evidently things of beauty, "their muscles ripple under their honey-colored skins and their eyes are as clear as two amber rinks in lake water - - They are real lions.” Raising these fine creatures is a profitable busi- iness for the Dublin Zoo, and they are shipped all over the world—one of them is in Toronto, probably at Riverdale Zoo. We cannot urge too strongly that you read for yourselves the above mentioned books, which are in the library. They leave one .with a feel­ ing of haying been refreshed as if by the clear air of that delightful country of kind hearts and strong characters, who have a firm grasp on the things eternal. As the author of the "In Search Books,” says, “The moment of the Angclus is, to me, the most touching and the most beautiful in an Irish day. At first a stranger is unaware of the bell. He may be riding in a Dublin tram-car. Sud­ denly there is a movement. Men and women are making the sign of the cross.

Twelve and fourteen miles a day very often. But there, I mustn’t complain. My holidays are due next week and that’ll put me on my legs again.” "And where do you propose to spend your holidays?” asked the vis­ itor. “Well, sir, it be like this,” said the postman. “They generally sands a young feller from the head office, and as he’s a nice sort of chap as a rule, I go round with ’im just for a- talk and a bit of company, like.” PO NTIAC W ITH SAFETY S H IF T GEAR CONTROL!

Policyholders and beneficiaries received from Metropolitan in 1937 almost $526,000,000 - much of it in an hour of genuine need. Death claims were paid on 6,107 policies in force less than three months, and on 18,562 policies in force less than one year - dramatic proof of the value of life insurance. One could scarcely name a catastrophe which took human lives, in the United States or Canada, where funds provided by Metropolitan policies had not helped lighten the burden for afflicted families. 1 Each day, visiting nurses representing the Metropolitan ministered to persons t insured under Industrial, Intermediate, and Group policies who were in need of skilled care. These nurses made 3,766,240 calls during the year. Every half second during 1937, a Metropolitan booklet, containing useful health information, was placed in somebody's hands.

Bole, Ingersoll Collegiate Institute, Ingersoll, Ontario. Dear Mr. Bole— I received your letter of the 22nd of February, and on Thursday, Mar. 3rd, we also received the freight shipment. All the cartons arrived in very good condition. It is hard for me to express our thanks and appreciation for the. kind­ ness you have shown to us. 'I can assure you that the pupils of my school as well as the parents, are very grateful to you for your gener­ osity. When we asked for assistance from the “East,” we hardly hoped for more than help for the most desti­ tute in our district, but. we find our donations sufficient to supply all of our pupils with much necessary clothing that they w’ould otherwise have to do without. We appreciate the fact that some of you must have actually shared your clothing with us. The school board and I wish to ex­ press our thanks on behalf of our district for the many useful books and other school supplies. We are sure these will help us along until we shall be able to buy our supplies again. On Friday afternoon the three members of the Board and my wife came to school and we distributed the clothing. I hardly need to tell you what a holiday it was for the pupils. Although we had ouh hands full in trying to supply the individual needs, it .was also a pleasure to see how gladly they shared, and left each article to whom it fitted best. It -was real! easy to please everyone, because you people gave so f;en- erously.. After the school children were taken care of, we distributed the remainder of the clothing to other people in our district I Jiave asked my pupils to write to some of the boys and girls whose nany* we found in books and on boxes. I wil address these letters to you within the next few days and you inay give them to whom they are addressed, if this is convenient. If not, please ask anyone who wishes to reply to accept the letters. I will also include, a personal let­ ter to you, giving you a belter out­ line on conditions in our commun­ ity, to which I am sure you have brought much happiness in the past few day*. Yours sincerely, .

Park. When we had almost reachedthe corner of Central Park West, Vance leaned forward suddenly and,tapping the chauffeur on the shoul­ der, requested him to stop at theentrance to the Nottingham Hotel.‘‘Really, y’ know, .Markham,’* he said as he stepped out of the car.“I think it might be just as well ifwe paid a little visit to the as-yet- unknown Mr. Quaggy He’s a gen­tleman of means and a gentlemanof leisure, as well as ■’’gentleman ofnocturnal habits. He may be athome, don’t y’ know. . . . But I think we’d better go directly to his apart­ment without apprising him of thevisit by being announced.” We had no difficulty in obtainingthe number of Quaggy’s apartment and being taken up in the elevatorI without an announcement. ■ In an­swer to our ringing, the door was opened by a generously propor­tioned Negro woman.“We want to see Mr. Quaggy"Heath's manner was as intimidatingas it was curt. “I don't think Mr. Quaggy------"she began in a tremulous voice. “Never mind what you think,Aunt Jemima.” Heath cut hershort. ‘‘Is your boss here, or isn’t he?” He flashed his badge. “We’refrom the police.”"Yes, sir; yes, sir. He's here." The woman was completely cowedby this time. "He’s in the sittin’- room, over yonder.”The Sergeant brushed past herto the archway at the end of the foyer, toward which she waved herarm. Markham, Vance and I fol­lowed him. As we entered, a haggard, dissi­pated-looking man of about forty rose from a low lounging chair inone corner of the room. He seemed both surprised and resentful at ourintrusion. He was unmistakabhthe gambler type—that is. the-type one secs habitually at gaminghouses and the race-track.“Forgive our unceremonious en try. You’re Mr. Porter Quaggv,I believe?” “What if I am? I don’t under­stand why you------”"You will in a moment, sir.” Vance broke in ingratiatingly. Andhe introduced himself, as well a« Markham and Heath and me. "Wehave just come from the Kentings’ down the street." he went on. "Acalamity took place there early thismorning, and we understand from Mrs. Kaspar Renting that MrRenting was with you last night.” Quaggy’s eyes narrowed to mereslits.“Has anything happened to Kas- ,par?1 “We’ll get to that later," Vance- ! replied. “Tell me. what time did 'you and Mr. Renting get home lastmght?” “Who said I was with him when I figured he hadn’t gone to bed yet, So 1 decided not to disturb him.’* “Did you, by any chance, stepinto the side yardf” “Just inside the gate.” “Did you see a ladder anywherein the court?” “A ladder? No. there was noladder." "Did you remain there long, Mr.Quaggy?" "No. I came back here and had adrink." “But you didn’t go to bed, Inotice." “It’s every man’s privilege to situp if he wants to, isn’t it?” Quaggy asked coldly. "The truth is, I beganto worry about Kaspar." "Was it only Mr. Kaspar Rentingthat you were thinking about?”Vance inquired with a shrewd, fixed look. "I understand you’re a closefriend of the family and are veryhighly regarded by Mrs. Renting.” "Glad to know it.” muttered theman, meeting Vance’s gaze squarely. “Madelaine is a very fine woman,and 1 should hate to see anythinghappen to her." "Thanks awfully for the informa­tion," murmured Vance. "I think I see your point of view perfectly.Well, your premonitions were quiteaccurate. Something did happen to the young gentleman, and Mrs.Renting is frightfully distressed." “Is he all right?" asked Quaggyquickly. — - “We're not sure yet. The fact is*Mr. Quaggy, lyour companion ofyestereve has disappeared—superfi­ cial indications pointin’ to abduc­tion." "The hell you say!” “Oh, yes—quite.” Vance said. “When did this happen?’’ “Oh, early this morning some time,” Vance informed him. "Thrft’*why we’re here. Thought maybeyou could give us an idea or two." . Quaggy finished the remainder olhis glass of whiskey. “Sorry, I can’t help you," Quaggy■iatd. "I’ve told you everything Iknow." Vance was at the_, archway now, and I was just bchind'ihim. Mark­ham and Heath had already pre­ceded us from the room.

NANCY HART’S HOME NEWSk-- -I—-- J A "Pill” For a Dinner Every so often some scientist bursts into the news with the inven­ tion of a pill to be taken three times a day, furnishing all the nutrition required for growth and health. And busy days we think such pills would be just the thing to give our families. We would have no worry about whether meals were balanced, no cooking, no dishwashing, no ap­ parently "wasted time.” It’s true that a vast amount of time and energy is spent on the bus­ iness of eating and if it is regarded as a more or less unpleasant "busi­ ness” to be finished in short order, then a pill would solve the problem. Food Should Be Enjoyed But I think that meals and partic­ ularly family meals should mean something entirely different from this. Our sense of taste is as much a part of us as sight and hearing and it should be catered to quite as seriously:- We should think of the pleasure of eating rather than the business of eating and enjoy to the utmost the flavor of fine food. Mealtimes should be the happiest of family gatherings, often they are the main times of being together and each member should feel himself an important factor, eager to do his share to make the event a pleasant one. Naturally the first consideration for such hours is the food itself, so I have planned this dinner to help you make a happy occasion of the evening meal. Mock Filet Mignon Here is the menu: mock fillet mig­ non, potatoes au gratin, buttered asparagus tips, fruit salary in ban­ ana boats, chocolate cup cakes with peppermint, whipped cream, milk, coffee. This dinner can be on the table thirty minutes after you step into the kitchen, too, because all the dishes are quickly prepared. Mock fillet mig­ non is nothing more nor less than chopped steak made into flat cakes, bound .with a strip of bacon and broiled, cooks in ten minutes. If you use canned asparagus, it’s merely a matter of reheating. The salad takes only a few minutes to assemble and if you make the cup cakes they will bake in fifteen minutes. If you buy them, put them in a closely cov­ ered casserole in a moderate oven while you are eating dinner and they will come out hot and oven fresh when you’re ready to serve them. Oxford Holsteins Go To Pennsylvania Mr. F. L. Heilman and Son of Cleona Pa., have recently completed the purchase of lfc head of purebred Holsteins from breeders in the coun­ ties of Oxford, Perth, Simcoe ,and Waterloo.

The umpire at the village cricket match didn’t kfiow much about cricket but he was not standing any nonsense. The first ball hit the bats­ man’s pads. “Outl” roared the umpire, walk­ ing up to him. “Out?—what tor?" asked the bats­ man peevishly. “All the afternoon,” replied the umpire firmly. Mrs. Brown—“There’s no mistake about it—clothes make the woman.” Brown—-“Yes, and break the man.” METROPOLITANLIFE CONTINUESPROGRESS IN 1937Increased Insurance in ForceFeature of 71st AnnualStatementOTTAWA, March 14th. — Report­ing payments to policyholders andbeneficiaries of almost $526,000,000during 1037, an average of $4,353.28a minute for each business day, the71st annual statement of the Metro­politan Life Insurance Company re­leased today presents an informativepicture of the service of a life In­surance company under the headingof "The-Business Bide of the Ledger— and the Homan Side.” Therewas scarcely a catastrophe In thecountry which took human livesduring 1037 where funds providedby Metropolitan policies did not helpto lighten the burden for afflictedfamilies.

SALVATION ARMY PRISON SUNDAY IS MARCH 20th According to The Salvation Army —an organization that has had great experience in dealing with law break­ ers—there is no factor in the perm­ anent reformation of a criminal so powerful as the effects of religion, so it is to the spiritual nature of the prisoner that the Salvationist most urgently appeals. Thus on Sunday, March 20th, The Salvation Army throughout the Dominion will have its annual “Prison Sunday.’’ Through the co-operation of Wardens and Chaplains, The Salvation Army will conduct religious services in all penal and reformatory institutions. In many prisons Salvation Army bands and singing brigades will assist in these services. Dr. Lavell, noted penologist, au­ thor of ’The Convicted Criminal and his Re-establishment,’’ says: “There arc criminals that all except the church and The Salvation Army F IR ST It was a “Sheltonized’’ Car for Your Driving Pleasure.

It is a recognized fact that in order to secure a rebuilding and satis­ factory reconstruction of the inmate's character his heart must be reached.” “Salvation Army Officers vis­ ited the prison on the last Sun­ day of each month and their presence and organized song services were much appreciated by, and of great benefit, to the inmates who attended.” Let us hope that in this “Prison Sunday” services many thieves will look at Christ and become penitent. “I’m writing a song.” “What’s the subject matter?” “It. doesn’t.” Nervous Fears Fear, worry, anxiety rob you ofrest and sleep and. health.
