A_ $2.00.UOSOLL PUBLIC SCHOOLSEASTER EXAM. RESULTS Death claimed two very highly es­teemed residents of Aylmer, in thepersons of Alexander Hoyle in hisSSrd year and his wife, Elizabeth Hoyle in her 81st year, who passed away at their home within sixteen hours of each other, Mr. Hoyle dying Friday night at 10 o’clock and Mrs. Hoyle dying Saturday afternoon at 1.30 o’clock. Mr. Hoyle was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and Mrs. Hoyle, whose maiden name was Elizabeth Midwin­ ter, was born in Kelvin, Ont They were married about 53 years ago and came to West Oxford Township where they farmed for many years. They also farmed for 10 years in South Dorchester. In 1920 they moved to Ingersoll where they lived for ten years, moving to Aylmer in 1930, where they had since made their home. The late Mr. and Mrs. Hoyle were members of the United Church, Aylmer, and when able were both ac­ tive workers. In politics they were Liberals. Left to mourn the loss of dearly beloved parents are one son, Charles A. Hoyle, of Avon; and one daugh­ ter, Mrs. Wm. Cook of New Sarum. Mr. Hoyle is also survived by three sisters as follows: Mrs. Frank Scan­ lon, Brantford; Mrs. Stone and Mrs. Dart, both of New York. Mrs. Hoyle is also survived by one sister, Mrs. A. E. Tutt, London, and one brother, Charles Midwinter of Winnipeg, to all of whom the sincere sympathy of countless friends is extended. A joint funeral was held from the Alien Undertaking Parlors, Aylmer, on Tuesday afternoon, April 19th„ to the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery, where interment was made. The ser­ vices were in charge of Rev. W. D. Stenlake. The large attendance at the service and the profusion of beautiful floral tokens, testified to the respect in which Mr. and Mrs. Hoyle were held, and sympathy for the sorrowing relatives..

L DEBATE CLUBdied By Death HELD FWE BANQUETA banquet was the festive conclu­sion of a successful and active seasonof the I. C. I. Debate Club. Theaffair was held in the United Church parlors on Wednesday evening, those present being the collegiate staff, the chairman of the Board of Edu­ cation, members and student friends of the club. Vice-president Fred Moore, ,was the genial master of ceremonies, and Alex. Pearson capably led the lively sing-song. A toast to His Majesty King George, was proposed by Jean Healy. The main feature of the pro­ gram was a debate on the subject, "Canada is of more value to the British Empire than is Australia." It was exceedingly well handled and exemplified the interest and study which the members have devoted to the club work during the season. Jessie Graham and Ruby Scott were the affirmative debaters, Keith Mabee and John Fennell, the nega­ tive. The judges, Miss Carney, Miss Sutherland and Mr. Bole, decided in favour of the affirmative. In giving the judges’ report, Mr. Bole spoke of the enthusiasm which has been ap­ parent among the members, and of the benefit which the students derive from the club. Miss Kennedy, on, behalf of the cliib, presented a book, a biography of Mary, Queen of Scot­ land, to each of the winners, Jessie Graham and Ruby Scott Mr. J. Ferris David spoke on behalf of the Board of Education, congratulating the club on its fine years’ .work and wishing it success in the future. He referred to the honours won by Col­ legiate students in Wossa debate and oratory contests some years ago. A book was presented by the members to R. C. Brogden, organ­ izer of the club, in appreciation of his kind guidance. A vote of thanks to the Guild, which so kindly catered to the club, was moved. Ingersoll Girls Win The “Y” Cage Title Kitchener and Ingersoll girls’ bas­ ket ball quintets met at Stratford on Thursday night in the third and final game to decide the Ontario Y.W.C. A. championship, captured last year by Ingersoll. In their two previous games, Ingersoll won in Kitchener by one point, while in the return game nt Ingersoll, the Kitchener girls car­ ried off a two-point margin. Due to the almost uncanny shoot­ ing of Helen Lefaive, who could pot baskets from almost any angle or position, Ingersoll led at half time 11-5. Kitchener staged a strong comeback in the second and drew to within one point of Ingersoll at 13- 12, but failed on a foul shot to. tio the score. Then little Miss Helen Lefaive of Ingersoll, went to work again, to grab off two more baskets and give her team a 17-12 victory and with it their right to retain the Ontario Y.W.C.A. championship for the second successive year.

VEALE, PublisherPHONES>—Tribune Office, IS - Residence. 442A.THURSDAY, APRIL 21st, 1938Occupational TrendsUp to and including the last census, the minimumage at which a child might be counted as having againful occupation was ten years. However, in re­ cent years, children are staying longer at school than they were and at the Prairie Census of 1936 the mini­ mum working age of 14 was set. It was found at the 1931 Census there were few children under 16 em­ ployed outside agriculture, 75 per cent of the boy? between 14 and 15 at work being in farming occupa­ tions.A gainful occupation is one by which the person pursuing it earns money or money equivalent or in which he assists in the production of marketable goods. A farmer's son not attending school, who is fully employed on the family farm, is recorded in the Canadian Census as gainfully occupied though he may be working in a “no pay’’ capacity. The most significant occupational change in Can­ ada generally during the past quarter of a century or so has been a decline in the relative importance of agricultural pursuits and a rapid growth m transport, commercial, service and clerical occupations. In such primary pursuits as fishing, mining, logging and particularly in manufacturing occupations, the growth, though substantial, .has hardly kept pace with the general increase in the working population. This reveals the general direction of trend of oc­ cupations in the Domin’on, but it is not easy to meas­ ure the actual extent of these changes. It is dif­ ficult to create comparable statistics. Constantly changing methods of production, the substitution of machinery for hand labour, the creation of new products, all tend to create occupational differences even where the main tendencies remain the same. There are occupations called by’ the same name as thirty or forty* years ago but the nature of processes performed and the special duties associated with them show little resemblance. Avlhe opening of the century about 45 per cent of all gainfully employed males in Canada were engaged in agriculture but at the last census only one-third of the total males in the Dominion were engaged in that vocation. The population generally has grown, of course, and there are more men engaged in agricul­ ture than there were 35 or 40 years ago, actually 55 per cent more, but the number of men engaged in all occupations has risen 100 per cent in the same period. Agriculture very clearly reveals the effect of the Machine Age upon employment. Although the number of men employed in agriculture has risen 55 per cent compared witfc the beginning of the century, the area of occupied farm land has increased 157 per cent. The total value of farm products is three times greater, which is a large increase even after allowing for changes in price levels. It is worth noting that the population, as a whole, living in rural parts of Canada has fallen from 62 to 46 per cent. To put it another way, while the rural population has increased 44 per cent since 1900 the urban population has grown at a much more rapid rate, or by 178 per cent. in recent years. If it be true that we are producingmore than we can consume, and that there is nohope for the future generation, then it must be truethat everybody has all he wants of everything, andthat there will never be any new industries to providenew kinds of jobs or supply new kinds of com­modities.Is that true? How can there be overproductionwhen large numbers of people are still unsuppliedwith motor-cars, radio sets, bath tubs, electric lightsand a thousand other desirable things? The satur­ation point for the products of industry has neverbeen reached and never will be. And if there is nomore opportunity left why are new industries start­ ing up right now, in the midst of a depression, to make new devices, for which they will have*to em­ ploy new’ people and teach them ifew techniques, thereby opening to them, at least, new fields of opportunity? Most of the folk who complain that the avenues of opportunity are closed to them have never made an honest effort to seize the opportunities which has always been offered and still will be offered to every­ body. To the young man or woman who brings to the door of opportunity intelligence, honesty, in­ dustry, courage and self-denial, that- door will al­ ways open. It slams in the face of the ones who try to get more than they give. THE DOC TOR Tells The Story by W. E. AUGH1NBAUGH, M.D. TODAY andTOMORROWby Frank Barker Stockbridge We Still Dig Canals After men had learned how to build boats and found how much easier it was to move merchandise and people by water than over land, they began to dig canals so that goods could be carried cheaply between places not otherwise accessible. Nobody knows who dug the first canal. Probably’ the Chinese, who were the first to do so many things. At any rate, man­ kind has been digging canals and running boats on them for thoifiEnds of years, and since Leonardo da Vinci, the great Italian artist-engineer, invented the canal lock four hundred years ago, men have been building canals across mountains. After railroads were invented people thought the canal was an obsolete means of transportation. But the Suez Canal, the Panama Canal and the Kiel Canal, to name but a few of the most important artificial waterways, have been constructed within compara­ tively recent years, and have proved their value not only as commercial enterprises but as implements of military strategy. There are more great canal projects “in the air” at the present moment than at any time in history. The French have revived the project of a ship canal connecting the Bay of Biscay with the Mediterranean, from Bordeaux to Marseilles, This would prevent an enemy government in Spain from blockading the Mediterranean against French and British ships in time of war. Great Britain, who owns the Suez Canal, has sur­ veyed a route for a parallel canal acrdss Arabia, in case Italy tries to grab the Suez Canal and block Britain’s chief route to her Far Eastern dependen­ cies. Strong military pressure is behind the renewed movement-for an American canal across Nicaragua, to supplement the Pankina Canal. Military strategy is also behind the plan for a canal across Florida, as well as commercial advantage. The Great lakes to St, Lawrence ship canal is again bding brought for­ ward and the traffic on the old Erie Canal is greater than ever. We seem to be entering a new canal era. Opportunity Still Exists Every little while some disgruntled pessimist comes out with a paean of despair about our country. We have shot pur bolt, these false prophets say. Oppor­ tunity no longer exists for the ordinary man. The country is all built up. There are more goods pro­ duced than there are people to consume them. Sensible folks let that sort of tommy-rot go in one ear and out the other, if they listen to it at all. But sometimes political demagogues, looking for trick issues’with which to catch the votes of the rabble, pick up such counsels of despair, preach them to the mob us if ahey really believed them themselves, and often get elected to public office on the strength of glittering promises to change the whole system by which men have to work for a living and convert the country into a happy hunting ground for the lazy, the shiftless and the incompetent. We have heard and seen a lot of that sort of thing SLEEP Sleep is nature’s sweet restorer, for as long as one is wrapped in the arms of slumber, he does not need food, has neither fears, hope, trouble or glory. It is a generous host to princes and paupers, the com-- forter of grief-oppressed minds, the blessed barrier between day and day, the mother of fresh thoughts and the producer of joyous health. STILL A MYSTERY Sleep is perhaps the most important function of one’s existence. More than one-third of each person’s life itf spent asleep—where nature has dra,wn us back to the sphere of submerged consciousness. After we have been refreshed at this invisible fountain, we come back again spiritually and physically fortified and ready for the work of the day. Despite our great advance in every line, I doubt if we know more to-day about sleep and its mystery, thah did the first man. Many theories have been propounded by ancient philosophers and modern Sav­ ants, but none are entirely what might be termed satisfactory. We do know however that sleep is not a merely passive condition of slowing down, but an active and vital functioning of the human economy. The body is built up by sleep and that explains why the infant spends so much of its early life sleeping. Fatigue theories of sleep are not tenable in the li^iht of modern investigations. * CUSTOMS AND PRACTICES In early days the soul of the sleeper was supposed to have left the body and for that reason sleepers were never awakened, for fear that the soul would never return to its former habitation. This perhapsaccounts*for the belief that it is impolite to awaken a sleeping person. Many fnethods have been devised to induce sleep. Often a brisk walk in the cool air before retiring, or a cold hath will accomplish this result. Counting imaginary sheep vaulting over a fence, lulls others to dreamland. Auto-suggestion helps hundreds. A hot drink before retiring is a panacea for insomnia for many. A quiet room, a comfortable bed, and a mind free from worry*, perhaps are the greatest in­ ducements to a calm and contented night. FIFTY-NINE YEARS AGO From the Files of The Oxford Tribune, Wednesday, April 23rd, 1879 ♦ A grand walking tournament is to be held in the skating rink here on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. R. J. Cavanagh, auctioneer of Ingersoll, is con­ ducting a large sale of new furniture at Embro, the property of the late James Halleck. Mr. Eugene Chase, the artist who has been staying at Mr. Howell’s gallery for the past few weeks, left on Monday for his home in Warren, Ohio. Messrs. George Maughan & Co., of Ingersoll, sold out, by auction in Toronto, on Wednesday last, their stock consisting of stationery, fancy goods, etc., to Mr. Wm. Morris of Rodney, at 60 cents on the dollar. The adjourned meeting of St. James’ vestry was held on Monday evening. The auditors reported find­ ing the accounts correct. The building committee had nothing new to report, and on motion a com­ mittee consisting of the church -wardens, Messrs. Wells and Jarvis and Messrs. Tfros. Brown, R. Y. Ellis, P. J. Brown, H. Hearn and J. M. Wilson were appointed to take the matter up with power to take final action. A son of Mr. Michael Kennedy’s on Monday last, fell down breaking the two bones of the arm just above the wrist joint. Dr. McCausland set the frac­ ture and ye are glad to learn the patient is doing well. We are pleased to learn that Deputy Reeve Sud- worth who met with a gun accident a short time since, is recovering rapidly. Although erysipelas had set in, it has been subdued and be is now doing very nicely. Our obituary column contains the death of Donald Sutherland, Esq., of Thamesford, one of the old set­ tiers of this vicinity and father of Mr. Hugh Suther­ land, government contractor in the North West, and formerly partner in the-firin of A Oliver St Companyof this town.z ANTHEM .... * new <»■•?The main trouble with the UnitedStates’ national anthem is that no­body can sing it. Nobody, that is, butAnna Case, the former operatic starwho is now Mrs. Clarence Mackay.Voices that can sing the low notes of the “Star-Spangled Banner” can't get the high notes, and vice-versa; and few people can remember moat of the .words. I’ve been complaining about the “Star-Spangled Banner” for years, and now I’m finding people who agree with me that a national anthem should be, first of all, singable by everybody, that it should have words which convey a patriotic thrill, and that it should be truly national. The United States anthem is none of those. “America” is simply Ameri­ can words set to the British tune of “God Save the King.” Anyway, two great musicians, a famous poet and the editor of a na­ tional magazine got together the other day, and decided to offer ^o.ne big prizes for the words for a new American national anthem. I may take a try at it myself I WOOL .... new processes If the news that comes out of Russia is true, it soon will not be necessary for sheepmen to shear their sheep. Just give the sheep a dose of thallium acetate and it sheds its wool. That is the report made by Dr. N. A. lljin of the Wool Labora­ tory of Moscow. Moreover, the thal­ lium treatments make it possible to .-recover marketable wool from vari­ eties of sheep which are now bred only for mutton. Many ordinary varieties of sheep have two kinds of wool, a coarsekind called “kemp” vJhich is of no value for spingjng, and a finer kind mixed with it. Dr. lljin reports that the thallium salts cause all of the wool to drop off the mefinos and other fine-jwooled sheep, but that by grading the dose he makes common i sheep shed their fine wool while the kemp remains on the animal. If thfe works out in practice it u-ill give every sheep in the world an added value and ought to reduce the cost of wool. STRAIN .... of thinking When we use our brains we put a strain upon the whole body, research experiments at Indiana University . Indicate. The popular notion is that brain wobk is a “soft” job; that the muscles get tired only when one does manual labor. But it seems that is not true. The harder a man thinks, the more taut his muscles become, until after a day of hard study, intensive reading or the solu­ tion of difficult problems the ordin­ al y person is as physically fatigued as if he had been throwing his weight about at hard labor. The old fashioned idea that the human brain was only remotely con­ nected with the body, and that great intellectual geniuses are often, or us­ ually, physical weaklings, is pretty well exploded. Some men of great mental powers have been frail of body to be sure, but they have usu­ ally died young. • In my own line of work, the ablest and most prolific writers 1 know are men and women of more than aver­ age physical development, ;who find it important to-keep their bodies fit I notice as I grow older that I feel physically tired after a day’s men­ tal work, with muscles aching which I was not conscious of having used at all.• • • MAX . still Burgomaster One of the great heroes of tho World War was Adolph Max, Burgo­ master z\>f the city of Brussels. Burgomaster Max’s name became almost as-familiar to American news­ paper readers as that of any of the great generals. He took no part in the fighting, but at the risk of his life managed to maintain the civil gov­ ernment of the Belgian capital in the face of the German invasion. Most people have forgotten Burgo­ master Max. I know that I had, un­ til I saw his name in a newspaper dispatch the other day, as heading the committee which welcomed For­ mer President Hoover of Brussels. The same Burgomaster Max—and still Burgomaster of Brussel?, after nearly twenty-four years. To me that points the difference between municipal politics in Europe, and in America. Imagine, if you can, a mayor of a great American city holding office for 24 years, no matter what his record. I can't. We don’t do things that Way In America. We throw our best public officials out because some politicians want the job for their own gang. WITCHCRAFT . . . ancient wrong It seems almost incredible that leas than 300 years ago people be­ lieved so firmly in witches that men and wiwn, chiefly -women, wereimprisoned or even put to death onthe change of having traffic with theDevil and casting evil spells uponother people.The wave of persecution of“witches” was world-wide. Many soaccused were hanged in the Amer­ican colonies; in England and on theContinent of Europe many were ac­tually burned alive I Civilized folkno longer believe in supernaturalpowers and manifestations and weleave witchcraft and'its punishment to the blacks of Haiti and other savage countries, while we try to apologize for the insanity of lour ancestors. The other day the people of Hampton Beach, New Hampshire, voted at town meeting to erase from the town records the fact that Eun­ ice Cole was imprisoned as a witch Jn 1656, to burn all documents relat­ ing to the case and to bury the ashes with the bones of the unfortunate woman in a suitable place, as amends for the injustice done her 278 years ago. If this serves to warn future generations against unfound­ ed accusations and hasty mob judg­ ments, it will be a gesture worth making. “AS A WOMAN SEES IT” — By Arabella — UNFAIR CRITICISM There is probably no branch of the medical profession receiving as much criticism from the ignorant layman as psychiatry—treatment of the mind. Nor is there any type of institution so difficult to run as a mental hospital, and yet people seem constantly ready to offer sug­ gestions on ho,w they should be run. In connection with the recent in­ vestigation at Homewood Sanitorium, a former member of parliament is reported to have said that he thought a certain patient had been unnec­ essarily detained in the institution,- for after a conversation with him he had found him to be as sane as himself. That evidence is practic­ ally valueless, except for the spark of' humor which it possesses. If the ex-M.P. would take the trouble to Earn a little more about such things he would find that a very small frac­ tion of the patients in mental hos­ pitals are entirely insane. He might also recall the phrase that “actions speak louder than words,” so that it is more because of what they do tlian for what say, that people are confined there. If sane conversa­ tion were the requirements of lib­ erty, where would any of us be? For we all indulge in foolish words ;>t some time or other and would gladly recall them in saner moods. We have known a patient to carry on a long conversation with a visitor, so that the latter expressed astonishment to an attendant that such a brilliant person should be in a mental institution, why the doc­ tors were keeping such a man there, and that it must be so that they might have jobs themselves, and such nonsense. To which the attendant replied that after the patient had talked with the visitor, he had told him (the attendant), that he could not stand talking to that man for ho was sending out electric shocks. Which simply meant that the pat­ ient’s period of lucidity had expired for the time being and he was re­ verting to his “dream-world” again. It is the duration of the period of “dreaming” that determines their mental condition, for the shorter that is, the stronger is their normality. Institutional routine is arranged with a diversity of occupation, so that the patient’s chances of recovery are greater than at home where he can indulge the tendency to brood. While in this dream world he is apt to form some fixed ideas which are at variance with his environ­ ment, with the result that he becomes unhappy. Witji what reasoning power he can use, he decides that some one person is responsible for his misery, and his one aim and ob­ ject is to find the offender. After months, perhaps years, of mental tor­ ture, he is prepared to employ des­ perate means to do away with his imagined torturer, and sometimes it comes to him in a flash just who it might be. Then ho will use any weapon at hand, and unfortunate is the victim of his hallucinations. It can readily be seen that an instiution tion is the only safe place for such a person. For in the average home there are many ordinarily harmless objects such' as scissors, knives, saws, axes and hammera that can become wea­ pons of death in the hands of an ir­ responsible person. It is rather unfortunate that men­ tal institutions should sometimes be uved as a refuge for those with crim­ inal records, which is done at times because of the more lenient attitude taken towards crime nowadays, so that many are excused by the law on the plea of mentality, who would otherwise be behind bars. The amount of pressure brought TELEPHONE TALKS IN THE WATSON FAMILY JACK ROBERTS and Sally have been 6^ “friends” for some time. But Jack took Sally by surprise (she really hadn’t expected a ring this spring) and in this case one ring udturally led to another. Sally just has to call Mother who is visiting out-of-town. “We’re to be married right away,” she says happily. And Sally will call some of her out-of-town friends as well, who will appreciate having the news “first”. Wouldn’t you? [Reduction* in telephone rates—local and long *1distance—in 1935, '36 and '37 hate effected |savings to telephone users in Ontario and 1Quebec of nearly one million dollars yearly. J to bear by friends and relatives who might shrink from the ignominy of seeing a member of their family in jail, is more than any doctor in the service of a democratic government could resist. With any mental derangement there is apt to be a great deal that is childish in the patient’s behaviour, so that it is necessary to deal as with a child, but with even greater tact and patience, and it is often there that the change of unAndness comes in if the attendant is tehipor- arily deficient in those qualities. But we know positively that every­ one employed in the Ontario Hospi­ tals fully understands that the pa­ tient is the first consideration and that only those who are willing to contribute to his comfort are allow­ ed to remain in the service. This is not written in defense of our Ontario Hospitals, for they do not require defending. But we do feel that if the public understood the situation more, they would ap­ preciate better what is being done to “minister to a mind diseased.” Usu­ ally a talk between the doctors and the patient’s relatives will clear up any difficulties far more readily than shouting complaints in public. Canadian Hams Popular Canada displaced the United States in 11937 as the largest supplier of -hams to the British market. The Do­ minion sold 314,606 cwts., and the United States, 311;746 cwts. to buy­ ers in Great Britain. Imports of hams from Empire countries increas­ ed by 10 per cent in 1937, and rep­ resented 94 per cent of the total imports of hams as compared with 45 per cent in 1936. Shipments from Canada were 13 per cent- higher, while those from Ireland de­ clined 31 per cent. Canadian hams are appreciated chiefly on account of of their high quality. Two old friends met again after many years. “Have you heard about Bill?” asked one, referring to an old ac­ quaintance. “No,” said the other. “What hap­ pened to him?’’ “He dropped dead outside a public house.” “Going in or coming out?" “Going in.’* “What bad luck!" Less Chickens in U. S. It is officially estimated by the U. S. Department of Agriculture that chickens on farms in the United States in 1938 are lowest in numbers for 15 years, a decline of 7.9 per cent from 1937 being registered. The total number for 1938, as at January 1, is estimated at 387,215,- C00 as compared -with 420,257,000 in 1937. “Your girl called up and said she wouldn’t be able to see you today." “Well, that’s a wait off my ifaind.” Said the chairman of a certainsociety tfE^its annual meeting: “In most kindred associations half the committee does all the work while the other half does nothing. I am pleased to place on record that, in the society over which I have the honor to preside, it is just the re­ verse.” Her father—'T do hope you ap­ preciate that in marrying my daugh­ ter you are getting a very big-hearted and generous girl.” Young Man—“I do, sir.

Eaaily FOmoved for u**» Pasteurization of milk was first in­ troduced to prevent the spread of tuberculosis by cows’ milk. It is now used in addition, to prevent the spread of other milk-borne diseases and to improve the keeping qualities of milk. Among these diseases are ui.dulant and typhoid fevers, scarlet fever, septic sore throat, diphtheria and the summer complaint of in­ fants. Milk that has been properly pas­ teurized w-ill have all the common disease bacteria that may have got ;nto it effectively destroyed. It has been thoroughly established that the pasteurization process, if properly carried out, has little or no injurious effects on the milk so treated. There have been extensive experi­ ments carried out in Great Britain, the United States and elsewhere, which conclusively show that child­ ren and calves fed on the pasteurized article thrive as well, if not better, on pasteurized than upon raw milk. The process of pasteurization consists in heating the milk in a suit­ able apparatus to a temperature of 145 degrees F. holding it at this temperature for 30 minutes and then rapidly cooling to 40 to 50 degrees. The milk should be kept at the lat- I ter temperature until used. The process may be carried oq|t in the household by using an ordinary double boiler. #In addition to pasteurization, it goes without saying that the sanitary conditions about stables and dairies and the health of handlers and of the milk-producing animals should be maintained as efficiently as possible. The process of pasteurization should be under rigid inspection and in the hands of men with a conscience. It will not do, as in the case of the epi­ demic of typhoid in Montreal in 1927, to pasteurize the milk supply of a city and then dump into it the raw product of a dairy where the handler was a typhoid carrier. No child should be allowed to drink raw milk, not even that from a certified herd, for there have been cases of bovine tuberculosis, to say nothing of other affections, which have arisen from the use of milk from tuberculin-tested cows. The innocent child has no say in these masters. His parents must protect him and protection against milk-borne' disease will pay dividends away in excess of the small cost of pasteurization. —.By John W. S. McCullough, M. D„ D.P.H.

All reveal anundercurrent of hostility to KasparAt this time a ransom note arrivesdemanding >50,000 and freedom frompolice interference. Vance and Mark­ham consult the Kentlngs and Fleel.their lawyer. It Is decided to allow thepolice a free hand In dealing with thesupposed kidnairpera. A dummy pack•axe is substituted for the money andthen secreted in a tree In Central Parkaccording to instructions.

He merely lacks something—strength of bodyand spirit, perhaps."“Quite He’s not well, Mrs Fal­ loway. He needs medical attention 1 Have you ever had a basal meta­ bolism test made on him?” The woman shook' her head.“A blood sugar?" proceeded Vance.“The truth is, Mr. Vance, the woman said, "he has never beenexamined.” Then she asked quick­ly: “What do you think it is?”“I wouldn’t dare to venture anopinion, don't'y' know, an endocrineinsufficiency somewhere—an inade­quacy of some internal secretion, adefinite and prolonged hormone dis­ turbance. I think you should haveyour son checked up. It may .be something that can be remedied."He scribbled something on a pagefrom a small note-book and. tearing it out, handed it to Mrs. Falloway.“Here is the name and address ofone of the country’s greatest endo­ crinologists. Look him up, for yourson’s sake." The woman took the slip of, paper,folded it, and put it • in one of thelarge pockets of her skirt. “And now,” said Vance, “I thinkwe’ll return to the drawing-room. And may you have a well-earnednight’s rest." WJjen we re-entered the drawing­ room we found the group just aswe had left it"There are one or two matters—" drawled Vance and stopped abrupt­ly. Then he said: "But I think Mrs. Renting should be here with us forthis discussion.”“I think you're right, Mr Vance,”Renting said, going toward thedoor. “I’ll get Madelaine myself." He bustled from the room as hefinished speaking, and we heard himgoing up the stairs. A few mo­ ments later we could hear his sharp,repeated knocking on a door. Then there was a long silence, and thesound of a door being opened hur­riedly. Vance leaned forward in his chair and seemed to be wailing ex­pectantly. A few minutes later Rentingcame rushing down the stairs. Hestopped in the doorway, glaring at us with wide-open eyes."She's not there!" he exclaimedin an awed voice. He took a deep breath. "I knocked on her doorscvec^Bimes, but I got no answer. I trieS^the door, but it was locked.So I went through Kaspar's room,into Madelaine’s. The lights are all on, but she isn’t there. ..."“The window—over the yard—is wide open, and—and the ladder isstanding against it!”Quaggy's cigarette fell from his lips to the rug, where he steppedon it with automatic quickness, without even looking down.“Good God, Kenyon I” he ex­claimed, half under his breath. The man seemed deeply moved.Fleel rose to his feet and. as hejerked down his waistcoat with both hands, appeared dazed and inarticu­late. Even Fraim Falloway raisedhimself suddenly out of his stuporand. glowering at Renting, beganbabbling hysterically. “The hell you sayl The hell yousay!" he cried out in a high-pitchedvoice. "That’s some more of Kas­ par’s dirty work. He’s playing agame to get money. I tell you. I don't believe he was ’kidnapped atall-----•”"Pipe down, young fella," he or­ dered. “Makin' fool statements likethat ain’t gonna help anything.”Only Vance seemed unruffled and composed. Heath had gone to thetelephone, amj I could hear him,with one ear, as it were, calling the Homicide Bureau and giving offi­cious instructions. Then he slam­ med down the receiver and .stalkedtoward the stairs."I want to look at that room." he announced. “Two of the boysfrom the Bureau arc coming up • right away. This is a hell of a night. . Hi? voice trailed* off as hewent up the stepK'two at a time. Vance-and Marham and I had leftthe drawing-room and were imme­ diately behind him.Heath first tried the dnor-knob of Mrs. Renting’s room, but, asRenting had informed us, the doorwas locked. He went up the hallto Raspar Kentii /s room. Thedoor here was standing ajar, and at the far end of the room we couldsee into Mrs. Kmting’s brightlylighted bouuuir. Stepping through the first chamber, we entered thelighted bedroom. As Renting hadsaid, the window facing on thecourt was wide open. _ Cautiouslyavoiding anj contact with the win­dow-sill. Heath leaned out at thewindow, and then turned quickly back.“The ladder’s there, all right," heasserted.Vance was apparently not listen­ ing. He had adjusted his monocleand was looking round the roomwithout any apparent show of inter­ est. Leisurely he walked to thedressing-table opposite the windowand looked down at it for a mo­ ment A round cut-glass powderjar stood uncovered at one side; the tinted glass top was resting on itsside several inches away. A largepowder puff lay on the floor. Vance lifted up a small perfumeatomizer which was resting peril­ ously near the edge of the dressing- dicate. And yet the light was onin the bathroom, and there is a cer­tain amount of evidence that shehad been powdering her nose andspraying herself with perfume sometime during the evening. Moreover,my dear Markham, there are indica­ tions of haste in the performance ofthese feminine rites, tor she did notput the perfume atomizer back where it belongs, nor did she stopto retrieve the powder puff fromwhere it had fallen on the floor. “And all of these little details,taken in connection with the openlatch and the unthrown bolt and themissing key in the hall door, leadme—rather vaguely and shakily, I admit—to the theory that she hada rendezvous elsewhere, for whichshe was a wee bit late, at some time around the far-from-witching hourof ten o'clock." "All right," Markham said. “Butwhat follows from all that?”Without answering the question, Vance turned to Heath.“What time. Sergeant,” he asked,"did you notify Fleel and Kenyon Renting about the arrangements fortonight?” "Oh.—I should say------” Heaththought a moment. "Round six “She’s not there I” Renting exclaimed. table, and pressed the bulb slightly.He sniffed at the spray. "Emerald," he murmured. “I’msure this was not the lady’s personalpreference in pJrfurncs. Blondes know better, don’t.y’ know. Emer­ald is suitable only for brunettes,especially those with olive complex­ ions and abundant hair. . . . Veryinterestin’." Vance then went to the door andinspected it briefly.“The night latch isp't on," he murmured, as if to himself. "Andthe turn-bolt hasn't been thrown. Door locked with a key. And no keyin the keyhole.”“What are you getting at, Vance?” demanded Markham. “What ifthere is no key there? The doorcould have been locked and the key removed.""Quite so — theoretically,” re­turned Vance. “But when one locksoneself in a bedroom with a key,one usually leaves the key in the lock."He went across the room and intothe bathroom. This room too was brightly lit. He glanced at the longmetal cord hanging from the elec­ tric fixture, and with his hand testedthe weight of the painted glass cylin­drical ornament attached to the end of the chain. He released it andwatched it swing back and forth. He looked into the tumbler whichstood on the wide rim of the wash­bowl and, setting it down again, examined the washbowl itself, andaround the edges. He then bentover the soap dish. "What in the name of God------"Markham began irritably. “Tut, tut, my dear fellow," Vanceinterrupted, turning to him with acontemplative look. "I was merely attemptin’ to ascertain at just whattime the lady departed. ... I wouldsurmise, don’t y' know, that it was round ten o’clock this evening.”‘‘How do you figure that out?” Vance pointed with his cigaretteto the pull-chain of the electric fix­ ture overhead. It was still swingingback and forth like a pendulum."When I came into the bath­ room,” Vance explained, “yon pol­ished brass chain was at rest—oh,quite—and I opined that its move­ ment, with that heavy and abomin­able solid glass cylinder to controlit, would discernibly continue, once it was puffed and released, for atleast an hour. And it’s just half­ past eleven now. . . . Moreover, theglass.here is quite dry, showing thatit has not been used for an hour or two. Also, there's not a drop ofwater, either in the washbowl or onthe edge; and a certain number ofdrops and a little dampness alwaysremain after the washbowl has beenused-“And 1 cannot imagine Mrs. Ken- ting, with her habit of remainingup late, performing her nightly toiletas early as these matters would in- o’clock. Maybe a little after.'* "And wnere did you find these •gentlemen?’’ “Well, 1 called Fleel at his homeand he wasn't there yet But I left word for him and he called me backin a little while. But I didn’t thinkto ask him where he was. AndKcnting was here." Vance again addressed Heath. "I'm afraid. Sergeant, your finger­print men and your photographersand your busy boys from the Homi­cide Bureau are going to draw ablank here.” “I still want to know," persistedMarkham, "what all this time-tablehocus-pocus means.’’ “It means deviltry. Markham. Itmeans something damnable. I don’t like this case. 1 don’t at all like it. "But we can't just sit back,*’ saidMarkham in a dispirited voice."Isn't there some step you can sug­gest?" “Well, yes. But .it won’t helpmuch. I propose that first we askone or two questions of the gentle­ men downstairs. And then I pro­pose that we go into the yard andtake a look at the ladder.”"And after that I propose that wego home and bide our time.” When we reached the drawing-room we found all four of its occu­pants anxious and alert. *“Have you learned - anything?”asked Fraim Falloway, in a semi- hysterical falsetto. “We're not through looking roundyet," Vance returned placatingly.“We- hope to know something defi­nite very soon. Just now, however, I wish to ask each of you gentlemena question.’* t "What is your favorite perfume,Mr. Flccl?”The man stared at him in blank astonishment, and I am sure thathad he been in a courtroom, he would have appealed instantly to thejudge with the usual incompetent- irrclevant-and-immaterial objection.However, he managed a condescend­ing smile and replied: “I have no favorite perfume—Iknow nothing about such things.It’s true, I send bottles of perfume to my women clients at Christmas,instead of the ronvcntipnal flower­baskets, but I always leave the se­ lection to my secretary.""Do you regard Mrs. Renting asone of your women clients?” Vance continued.“Naturally" answered the lawyer.“By the by.,. Mr. Fleel, is your secret’ry blond or brunette?""I don’t know. I suppose you’dcall her a brunette." “Many thanks,” said Vance curtly.“What is your favorite scent, Mr. Falloway?" Continued Next Issue i n i Question—A motorist, 100 yards away, from an open level crossing, was travelling 45 miles an hour. A train7was also approaching _at 68 m.p.h., its distance from the cross­ ing, 150 yards. Did the motorist get across. He got a cross. P ICOBAC ..........

HOUSE and HOME— by Mary E. Dague -Author of Sister Mary’sKitchenMaking Old Floor* NewIf you live in an old house whosefloors are made of the wide planksyou may be disconcerted to find the cracks that you thought had been p:operly filled appearing again, beautiful as these old floors are they do present a problem because arti­ ficial heat makes them shrink and cracks are bound bo develop between the boards. Now is the time to take care of them before the dampness of summer makes the boards swell to their greatest width. When the cracks are quite wide the best way to close them is with strips of hard wood. Cut the strips to fit very snugly and wedge them in the cracks. Nail them or glue them in Narrower cracks can be filled satisfactorily with sawdust of the same wood as the floor. Use glue and sawdust to make a paste and pack it firmly into the crack, filling it to the top. Cover with dry saw­ dust and press firmly with a small board to keep the filler smooth. When perfectly dry, sandpaper and finish like floor. Spring Clothes; Food* Cape ensembles are in the spot­ light this season. With square shoul­ ders and straight lints, the capes are long or short and are made of sheer wools or light weight tweeds. I saw one the other day of sheer wool with a white kid piping around the tiny stand-up collar and down the front of the cape. The dress was one-piece ;with cowl neckline and a wide suede belt that hugged the waist and accented the trim, fitted look of the dress. Don’t neglect to serve your fam­ ily plenty of green vegetables this Spring. Spinach and all the “greens” including the many varieties of dan­ delions—wild and cultivated—mus­ tard greens and collards are ideal to serve with fish menus. Houiecleaning Tip Be prepared to rub the leather backs of books with neat's-foot oil when you do your spring house­ cleaning. Rub on all that the leather will absorb, doing a shelf at a time. Then go back over them and rub off the excess oil with a clean soft cloth. Newcomer on a new housing estate exchanging confidences with her neighbor and, incidentally trying to impress her, remarked: "My husband is an optician.” “What’s that?” asked the other. “He supplies people with glasses,” was the reply. “Oh, so does’ my husband.” "Is he an optician, too?” "No, a barman.” Young husband—“I took out five thousand dollars insurance on my life today.” The Wife—’’Oh, goodie, I won’t have to be reminding you now to be ro careful.

INGERSOLL LUREDTO NEW COUNTRYOF RICH PROMISEBy Elizabeth A. Vining, in theLondon Free Pres*.Thomas Ingersoll, the founder ofthe town of Ingersoll, waa a descend­ant of Richard Ingersoll, who was bom in Bedfordshire, England, in 1600, and came to Salem, Mass., in 1629. John Ingersoll, a brother, came to Massachusetts the same year, settling finally at Westfield, a place which seems to have been the home of many prominent New Eng­ land families. Sometime about 1793, Thomas Ing­ ersoll decided to move to Canada. He never laid any claim to being a United Empire Loyalist but was at­ tracted to the Dominion by the proc­ lamation of Governor Simcoe, which offered tracts of land to settlers on easy terms. The great possibilities of this country were depicted in glowing terms. In New York he had met the fam­ ous Indian chief, Joseph Brant, who had promised to direct him to the best land for settlements, if he came to Canada. On his arrival Brant ad­ vised him to settle on the La Tranche • (Thames) River. Ingersoll had a small party of settlers with him and they appointed him as their agent in the application for a township. There were no roads through this part of Western Ontario at that time, only the old Indian trail from De­ troit to Ancaster. On an old camp­ ing ground of the Indians, Ingersoll selected a site for his home. The site later became part of Thames street in the town of Ingersoll. Owing to some false rumors reaching Government headquarters, Government cancelled the agreement for the grant of land and Ingersoll unable to fight the case, removed to Etobicoke. Later he moved to a home on the Credit River, where he died in 1812. Among the family of 11 children which survived him, and whose des­ cendants are scattered throughout Canada, was Laura Ingersoll Secord. History gives little or no record of her girlhood days, but she must have grown up in a day when war and rev­ olution left memories that time could not efface. She, no doubt, came to Oxford County with her father and spent a short time on the farm where the town of Ingersoll now stands. The date of her marriage to James Secord is not known, but it is known that she lived at St. Davids’ for a few years after her marriage and there are records which show that James Secord was living at Queenston in 1802. He was then a successful merchant. The Secords were United Empire Loyalists and were prominent influ­ ential and prosperous people in the Niagara and Queenston district when the war of 1812 broke out. _On that memorable 13th day of October, 1812, when the Battle of Queenston Heights was fought, Laura Secord’s husband was one of those who bore the body of the brave Brock from the field. Later in the day James -Secord was severely wounded. The following summer when Laura Secord made her histx>ric trip to warn Fitzgibbon of an American attack, the frontier was in the hands of the Americans. Soldiers were billeted in her home. and from the conversation of Col. Boerstler, who dined with them, she learned of the American plans. Fitz­ gibbon she felt, must be warned. There was no one else to go. Her duty was clear. She "would take Xhe message to Fitzgibbon and she did. Whether this trip was necessary or not, opinions seem to be divided but the bravery of Laura Secord is un­ deniable.
