Saturday, May 14 th, marks the Sixth Anniversary of McVittie & Shelton Limited, local Ford Sales and Service.' In order to make this special occasion a most outstanding one, Mr. Samuel L. Shelton, presi­ dent and general manager of the firm, is making arrangements to en­ tertain the many hundreds who will visit jD* company’s garage on that day. ■ - McVittie & Shelton Limited are proud to boast of one of the best equipped garages and service depart­ ments in this section of the province. In their show room will be displayed the latest 1938 .models of Ford V-8 and Lincoln-Zephyr Cars, Ford Trucks and Fordson Tractors. The president of the company, Samuel L. Shelton, has had a lengthy experience in the automo­ bile business. He is a native of West Oxford Township, but his first connection with a garage was in the City of Detroit in 1923 when he jcQted the staff of Kessler Sales and Service, handling Chevrolet cars. In 1924 he came back to Ingersoll and associated himself with the sales staff of H. A. Copeland, Buick and Chevrolet dealers and remained with Mr. Copeland until the former gave up business in 1932. That year along with the late Andrew McVittie of St. Marys, Mr. Shelton formed the partnership of McVittie and Shelton ^Limited, taking over the Ford .•sAgency and opening up for business in the Copland building. Following .Mr. McVittie’s death, his interests were taken over in 1934 by Mr. Shel­ ton, who has successfully conducted the business since that time. McVittie and Shelton carry a complete stock of Ford Parts at all times. They sell and recommend Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires, Dunlop Cable Cord Tires, and Canadian Oil Companj’ White Rose Gasoline and En-Ar-Co Motor Oils. On their anniversarj- they will present to the first ten customers Saturday morning, a beautiful ash tray. A piece of the lovelj’ Windsor Pattern rose glassware will be given free to everyone making a purchase of $1.00 or over, and in addition with each 25c cash purchase, coupons will be given that can be redeemed for gifts displayed in the company’s show rooms. A free grease job is offered with each oil change and Mr. Shelton will sell a Firestone Tube for $1.00 with each purchase of a new Firestone Tire. There will also be a drawing for valuable door prizes and every child who visits the garage on Saturday, when accompanied bj»’ an adult, will receive a gift. These include balloons, pencils, blotters, banks, games and novelties. Entertainment will be provided on Saturday evening from 7.30 to 10 o’clock by some of the artists who have appeared on the “Sheltonized” Programs over Radio Station C.F.P. L., London. Loud speakers will be installed so that all may hear, and at 9 p.m. there will be several short addresses bj’ prominent officials of the motor industry who are coming to Ingersoll for the company's anni­ versary. In addition talking pic­ tures will be shown on Saturday night in the service department of the garage. Special announcements regarding the details of the anniversary cele­ bration appear in this week’s issue of The Tribune and Mr. Shelton ex­ tends a most cordial invitation to the people of the surrounding dis­ trict to come to Ingersoll on Satur­ day.

Dorchester—William Harley Bak­ er, age 33, no fixed abode, was in custody on Sundaj- charged with theft and house breaking and police say that a sudden change of heart was responsible for his arrest. They claim that he ransacked, the farmhome of his emplo^ryArthur Tur­ pin, in Nortl^DijjefioMCr/ from top to bottom, in a search <or money, then went to London on Saturday night and asked city police to lock Him up.

Simcoe Speaker Addressed Horticultural Society John JM.- Piggott of Simcoe, was the speaker at the regular meeting •f the Ingersoll Horticultural Soci­ ety 1s t week. Mr. Piggott delivered * very fine illustrated lecture on '•Sanctuariee." The meetin/"was in charge of president, E. S. Byerman and was held in the Community “Y.” It is expected that Mr. Piggott will visit Ingersoll again in the near future and address the students at the Ingersoll Collegiate Institute. Conservation OfficerKi wan is SpeakerKrwanian W. A. McDougall wasin charge at the regular weeklymeeting of the Ingersoll KiwanisClub at the Ingersoll Inn on Thurs­ day evening last, and presided over the gathering most capably. The speaker was Mr. J. McCartney, conservation officer of the Ontario Department of Game and Fisheries. Kiwanian L. M. Sommer introduced the speaker. Mr. McCartney’s address was of keen interest as well as of splendid educational value to the members, and he requested that the club pass along the story of the endeavors of the deparment in the matter of con­ serving and re-stocking the natural resources of the province. His ad­ dress was entitled, “Fishing and Con­ servation”, and was heard with marked interest by both ardent sportsmen and fishermen and by those who do not engage so exten­ sively in the undertaking. At the very outset, Mt. Mc^ftrtney said that the word ‘conservation’ has become a most important one in all branches of natural life in our prov­ ince and country today. It has also become a very much misunderstood word that stands at times for much confusion. It is the aim of the de­ partment and he hoped it would be­ come the aim of the sendee clubs, to make the word and the program clear to the public so that they might be properly educated to see the need of it at the present time. Given suffic­ ient time and encouragement, and by the aid of the service clubs and He public press, the speaker felt That the foundation laid by the de­ partment, would be heeded-and ob­ served so that there would be for later generations, the goodly heri­ tage that there was meant to be jn these wild life and natural resources. The thanks of the club were exten­ ded to the speaker by Kiwanian. A. Odell. R. Hamilton Daughters of England Visited Here KINDLY REMEMBEREDBY CRAMPTONSUNDAY SCHOOLMr. and Mrs. I. N.

Lehman wrote that the meas­ure would: “Abridge freedom of speech, freedom ofthought, freedom of the press and freedom of as­sembly. “A demand for statutory enactment such as this can come only from a distrust of our democratic pro­ cesses. I have no such distrust. My disapproval of this bill is based on my faith in democracy. Every thoughtful person, we believe, will agree with the statement of the New York State Governor that a governmental system which can be endangered by the circulation and discussion of ideas is not very solidly founded. The whole principle of our dem­ ocracy is that the utmost freedom of expression and discussion must be tolerated, otherwise it would not be a free democracy. Our country is based upon the free will of the whole of its people, not upon the will and beliefs of a few. If at any time an overwhelming majority of the people should be converted to a different idea of the nature and rights of government than the one under which we now operate, they have the right and the power to change our system. They will never do that so long as public, opinion insists upon the preservation of our ancient ideals and beliefs and sees to it that our government truly reflects those basic standards of British democracy.

The Tea ch or’a JobA lady called at a newspaper office recently com­plaining of the manners of some children she metentering a store, and she expressed the opinion thatif the child is not taught manners at home, the teach­ers should do so. The editor agreed with her andexpressed the belief that manners were being taughtin nearly all schools. There is no set period for suchinstruction—there is no time for it. But the teacherlargely on her own deportment, and by correctingthe papite from time to time, teaches proper manners.After all the school teacher starts her job with twostrikes against her. , She has a roomful of restlessyoungsters who would rather be any place than inschool. She has to keep their attention, arouse theirinterest, make them behave, quell that red Indian spirit that periodically takes possession of" healthy youth—and, those things done, give them an educa­ tion, prepare them for citizenship and instruct them in manners and hygiene. It’s a job big enough to make a strong man quail. But the slip of a girl who hires out as schoolma'am tackles it without turning a hair—and gets away with it. TH E D OCTO R Tells The Story by W. E. AUGHINBAUGH, M.D. ii ii ......... m uTODAY an4TOMORROWby Frank Barkar StockbridgvFEAR................................fanaticism Value of Mixed Farming A news item sent from the Canadian West regard­ing'he marketing of cattle at Edmonton and Calgary gives an interesting view of conditions in Alberta. The time was when that Province depended very largely for its prosperity on the wheat crop. But the contingencies of recent years have shown the wisdom of mixed farming, especially the production of livestock and dairy products. Some years ago cattle-raising was a profitable industry, but when the market disappeared, owing to the high tariff barriers erected by the United States, it declined very serious­ ly. In recent years it has been stimulated by the reciprocity pact. The quota of cattle shipped under its terms was reached some time ago, but the export trade still tftntinues. The news item in question reported that the total value of cattle marketed and slaughtered, according to reliable estimates, was expected to almost reach the high figure of 1930, when it was slightly more than $16,000,000. The total value off the cattle mar­ ket in 1936 was $12,405,000, so that the sum last year was about one-third more and twice that of five years ago—a very encouraging sign of process. The production of cattle, provided a market can be ob­ tained for them, is a valuable addition to the wealth of the Province. Not only was the export trade active last year, but the demands of the domestic market were much greater also. The time has un­ doubtedly come when Western farmers must resort more and more to mixed fanning. For years the in­ come from enormous crops of wheat at a good price had a discouraging effect on other phases of agricul­ ture. The adversities' however, of the last few years hate taught the people the -wisdom of not relying solely* on wheat-growing. CANCER, ANCIENT MALADY Unquestionably the most sinister disease, which clings tenaciously to mankind is cancer. It has haunted the human race since the dawn of history. Napoleon and thousands of world characters succumbed to this disease. It may happen anywhere from childhood to old age; may attack any portion of the body; prince and pauper are not immune to ite ravages; and it is common among all races of men. CANCER CAN BE PREVENTED Education as to the dangers of cancer and its early treatment at the hands of qualified medical men, wil do much to reduce the death rate. It is not hereditary and not contageous. It thrives on ignor­ ance and must be fought with knowledge. It can easily be prevented. Scrupulous cleanliness of the' skin, all parts of the body, the mouth and the genital organs is essential if one would be free of cancer. Slow eating, avoiding too hot or too cold foods, alco­ holic drinks of high concentration, moderation in everything, especially in the use of tobacco also pre­ vent cancer. Do not keep a pipe always stuck in the corner of the mouth, for this frequently produces lip cancer. General Grant died of cancer brought about by the excessive use of tobacco. See your doctor twice a year and have him examine you from head to foot. If a lump or a sore develops on any. part of the body and does not disappear within a -week, consult your physician. CAUSES OF SKIN CANCER Cancers of the skin, which are relatively common, quickly yield to treatment. Irritation of any por­ tion of the body leads to cancer. The natives of India suffer greatly from lip and tongue cancer be­ cause they carry day and night a wad of betel nut between their gums and lip. Japanese frequently have jancer of the esophagus, due to drinking very hot tea. In Kashmir, natives carry during the cold season, a fire basket, suspended from the neck over the abdomen, filled with hot charcoal, on which they rest their hands, to keep from freezing, in that bleak region. Most of them later develop cancer of the abdominal wall, due to the heat of the fire basket. Dictators axe always beset by thefear that the people whom they rulewill learn the truth, and discoverthat they have been fed on lies.Shortly after the Nazis took pos­session of Austria they began to"purge” Hie national library inVienna of every book which con­tained any truths contrary to the “Aryan” doctrines of Naziism. One of the largest and most valuable col­ lections of books in the world is be­ ing destroyed in order to conceal the truths of nistory and science from future generations. Nothing like that has happened since the year 641, when the Moham­ medans under Caliph Omar I began their march of conquest westward from Arabia, which nearly resulted in the conquest of all Europe. In Alexandria, Egypt, was the largest library in the world, and the city was the world’s center of learning and culture. The Arabs took the city, and the commanding general asked the Caliph what he should do with the contents of the great library. Omar replied that if the books con­ formed to the teachings of ..Moham­ med they were unnecessary, since all needed truth was contained in the Koran, while if they were contrary to the Koran they should be destroy­ ed anyway. So the whole great lib­ rary was burned. No one will ever know what priceless records of his­ tory and human culture were lost to the world.• • • HISTORY ... of fallacies inspired men to seek for truth andto live by it rather than by force.The conquerors whose influencecontinues to prevail and grow are thegreat ones whose task it was to setthe human spirit free, not to enslaveIt.• • «VIGILANCE . . for democracyNone of the modern dictators be­gan with force. They lured enoughpeople into accepting their rule, bypromising to free them from real oractual oppression, danger or distress.Once they had enough followers toback them up, they began, one by one, to curtail the liberties of the whole nation. Dictatorships come about by grad­ ual and devious infringements upon individual rights, under the specious plea that only by surrendering their rights can the people be saved from economic or physical starvation. Re­ sistance to the program of wholesale salvation is branded as unpatriotic, selfish or even treasonable. Free peoples can be and have been bamboozled by such tactics, be­ cause they did not recognize the signs of the times. The time to ex­ ercise the eternal vigilance which is the price of liberty is when men in power begin to call names, to de­ nounce those who disagree with them and to propagandize programs which can only be made effective by the use of force. “AS A WOMAN SEES IT” —- By Arabella — FIFTY-NINE YEARS AGO Bo r r o w ing For Pr o f it fatlU'tDcuJuj Profitable operations in the dairy business largely depend upon wise management. Com­ petition is keen and good managers will borrow at the Bank, if necessary, to improve and maintain the quality of the herd, provide for scientific feeding and stabling, and keep essential equipment up-to- date and well-conditioned. The Bank of Montreal is interested in such constructive efforts by dairymen. Our branch man­ agers, familiar with conditions and requirements in this important industry, welcome applications for loans, co finance improvements. * The Bank of MontreJ jis also interested in the i- zation and operation of Boys’ and Girls’ Calf and Swine Clubs, and wel­ comes the opportunity to discuss their require­ ments. Hospital Service In spite of the fact that hospital costs have been increasing since the beginning of the century, pa­ tients today are paying less, over the average, for their total hospitalization and at the same time are gettingl inestimably better service than they did inJ 900. I This! statement is not as paradoxical as it sounds. The average duration of hospitalization at the turnof the\century was over twenty-five days; now it is eleven io twe|ye days. In view of this wide differ­ence, it is easily understood why, even at higher present-day rates, the total cost to individual- patients is often less than it was thirty to thirty-five years ago. The shortening of patients’ hospital stay has been due to rapid advances in medical science and hospital equipment. Scientific equipment is now being util­ ized that was unheard of thirty years ago. The re­ sult has been that cures are now possible which -would have been unthinkable at the beginning of this century. Looking backwards, therefore, it is interesting to observe that, while the actual cost of *“operating a hospital has increased through the years with the rising costs of food and supplies, the increase in wages and the purchase and operation of medical equipment, the average cost to the patient on the one hand, due to .shortened hospital stay, has not in- 1 creased, while on the other hand, the service he is receiving and his chance of recovery have been con­ siderably enhanced. . Moreover patients are out of employment for a much shcROfr period of time,’as convalescence after leaving the hospital has been lessened considerably due to the better methods of treatment. Farmers Life Interesting An exchange describes a farmer as follows: "A farmer should lead the most interesting life because he haa to be a mechanic to keep his machin­ ery in good operating condition. He has to be aveterinary in order to safeguard the health of his livestock. He has to be a soil specialist to keep his graund in good productive condition. He has to be a financier of no mean merit to be able to make ends meet. Then he has to bef'a gambler and weather prophet to try to match Mother Nature when she starts out playing pranks with winds rains, heat and frosts. Besides these he has dozens of other things to attend to which requires initiative, work and sound judgment.” - From the Files of the Oxford Tribune, Wednesday, May 14th, 1879 Our town and vicinity was thrown into a state of excitement on Sunday evening and Monday morning by the report that Mrs. D. S. Macdonald had died suddenly after taking a dose-of. medicine. The first excursion of the* season from Ingersoll will take place on the C.V.R. to Stratford on the 24th of May. The six hour walking match came off in the skating rink yesterday afternoon with the following result:— 1st prize, Moncur, 28 miles and 11 laps; 2nd prize, McDonald, 28 miles and 5 laps; 3rd prize, *Barnes, 28 miles and 2 laps. The entrance examinations for admission to Inger­ soll High School will be held in the High School Building, Ingersoll, on Tuesday and Wednesday, the8th and 9th of July, at nine o’clock a.m. -Candidates must notify the Head Master not"later than the 24th of May. While two boys, sons of Mr. Harry Gee, were out shooting with an old musket one day last week, it accidently went off while the eldest was in the act of ajusting the cap, and as his brother was standing directly in front of him he received the whole dis­ charge in th^ face. Luckily for him it contained nothing but powder. The new library, free reading room and parlor in connection with the Young Men’s Christian Associa­ tion of this town, will be opened in a few days. Wm. A. Cromwell’s Cash Boot and Shoe House has not left town, but removed to the old stand lately occupied by H. Hearn and Macaulay, on the west side of Thames street. The young gentleman who acted as clerk for Cor­ oner McCausland on Monday at the inquest of Mr. H. P. McCausland, nephew of. the doctor, deserves credit for the intelligent and careful manner in which heperformed his duties. Professor Arnold commenced giving his lessons on practical cheese at Brownsville, on the 6th of this month, and remained for three days. A company to be known as the "Devizes Cheese and Butter Factory/’jhas just been Incorporated. To those who know no history, the present is full of terrors for the fu­ ture. The student of history knows that every economic fallacy and all of the political methods by which governments try to counteract de­ pressions have their parallels in his­ tory, and that eventually the world will discard the quack remedies and right itself by upturning to the in­ exorable laws of economics. There are twenty-one distinct civ­ ilizations known to historians. Of those, fourteen are known only by their ruins. They perished, in ever# instance, because their leaders either tried to tamper with economic laws or attempted to take in too much territory. The seven civiliz­ ations which have survived have last- ted because there has been no sup­ pression of learning. Their people have hud free access to truth, and truth always prevails in the long run, though it may take centuries. Three great civilizations today are on the historic road to destruction. They are following the same routes which their vanished predecessors took. They can suppress truth for a few generations, perhaps, and in­ flict great damage on the rest of the world vrhile they last, but in the end their destruction is inevitable. * * ’ 4 CONQUERORS . . . doomed Alexander, Genghis Khan, Julius Caesar, Omar, Napoleon are famous names in history. Each tried to dominate the world, or so much of it as he could conquer. Every one of them believed that he had a superior form of civilization which he was destined to irhpose upon the rest of the world. Each succeeded—for a while. But what is left of their am­ bitions now but ruins? The empires those leaders created have vanished. Alexander’s Macedon­ ian empire, the Mongol empire of Asia, Caesar's Roman Empire, Omar’s Mussulman empire. NnP°l- eon's Franco-Italian empire has been dismembered, partitioned, most of them have vanished completley. Some fell apart the moment ttyir rulers died. A thousand years from now histor-ian^Vill set the names of Hitler, of Mussolini and of Lenin alongside those great historical failures. Their successors may carry on fo ra while, as Stalin is carrying on in Russia, but their efforts are doomed to fail­ ure because they are based upon force and the suppression of truth. • * • TRUTH . will, prevail What defeated the conquerors of history and will defeat the conquer­ ors of the present time? There is only one answer. Truth, and the reaction of the human spirit to ele­ mental truth. Through all of the conquests by force, the supp'esslon of truth, the efforts of conquerors to instill false, doctrines into the minds of their people, the light of truth has never been completely extinguished. Some spark has always remained burning, to burst into flame and set the world afire sooner or later.Men’s bodies can be conquered and kept in bondage.by force. Man’s spirit can never be imprisoned. The real conquerors in history are those who, by teaching and* example, have A CURIOUS WILL This twelfth day of May, Being airy and gay, To hip not inclined, But of vigorous mind, And my body in health, I’ll dispose-of my wealth; And of all that I have On this side of the grave To some oye or other, I think to my brother— But because 1 foresaw That my brothers-in-law, If 1 did not take care, Would come in for a share, Which I noways intended, Till their manners were mended— And of that there’s no sign— I do therefore enjoin, And strictly command, As witness my hand, That naught I have got Be brought to hotch-pot; And I give and devise, Much as in me lies, To the son of my mother, My own dear brother, To have and to hold, All my silver and gold, As th’affectionate pledges Of his brother, —John Hedges. As far as we know John Hedges did not do anything else that was particularly'noteworthy, but the fact that he realized his responsibility re­ garding the disposal of his possess­ ions when he would no longer require them, showed a certain alertness on his part. As he ndted, he was not inclined to melancholia or hypochondria, so it was not during a fit of the blues that he decided to make his will. But Just because he was able to face things fairly and squarely. It is not fair for a person to say that they do not care what becomes of their property, for that gives an opportunity to the unscrupulous to make claims, which, while legally sound are not so ethically—Then ill- feeling results which might have been avoided by a little forethought.Nor is it enough to neglect making1* a will because of there being just a few direct heirs who would share equally, for in these days when whole families are wiped out in ac­ cidents, the estate is likely to be divided amongst distant relatives, with no recognition of the fact that some might be more deserving than others, either .because of their need, or their ability to take care of their property. Making a will does not hasten any one’s death, in spite of the supersti­ tion held by some people, but it is a contribution which each one can make to the maintenance of justice. '■SOFTENING ECONOMY Members of the Kitchener Public Utilities Commission visited London recently to observe the organization there. Newspaper reports do not record all their observations, but they do record words of wisdom spoken by the director of the Lon­ don Public Utilities Commission, Words that might well be -considered by the authorities in our own town. Mr. Buchanan advised his gueste from Kitchener to use part of the utilities profits to install a water­ softening system. In these days when economy is in order for individuals as well as gov­ ernments, the use of hard water seems a most futile extravagance, BANK OF MONTREAL ESTABLISHED 1»»7 "a bank where small accounts are welcome" MODERN.

The saving effected by a water­softener would soon pay dr the ex­ penditure, so that it would not be an expense such as a new bridge or school. And the benefit to health generally could not be reckoned in dollars and cents, for if lime in hard Water is in­ jurious to plumbing, it is probably likewise to the human body. It is claimed that cases of rheum­ atism as well as gall-stones have been helped by softened water. And by softened water we do not mean that to which chemicals have been added to neutralize the lime, but that from whiqh the lime is removed by a process somewhat similar to electro­ lysis. This would seem ‘to be a fin- plat­ form for municipal candidates wish­ ing to make an appeal to the house­ wives of Ingersoll, for none know better than they the problems creat­ ed by excessively hard water.

"Lady, I haven’t the life of a.dog.” Not an isolated experiment Both here and south of the line, we have had to learn by bitter experience that an unenforceable law is worse than no law at all. Literally, worse than no law at all, as reasonable men who remember the abuses of prohibition, will agree. Adroit prohibition propaganda leaves the impression that Ontario is the exception in its abandonment of prohibition and adoption of control. As a matter of fact, the Liquor Control Act of Ontario has its counterpart in various forms in Great Britain, all the British Dominions, the United States, Scan­ dinavia, South America and in six of the nine Provinces of Canada. As a further fact, the Control Acts of Ontario and the four Western Provinces are more restrictive than those of Great Britain, the United States, etc. Its purpose is to attain, progressively, a greater - acceptance for true temperance through control—in the belief that external control exerted by the Government will ultimately induce a greater individual control and discipline—which, alone, temperance can be attained. Three men named Jones, all in the same line of business, opened shops next door to each other. The one on the right had the name Jones painted in large letters over the door. The one on the left immediately did the same thing. The signwriter than approached the centre Mr. Jones, asking him if he would like his name painted also. "No,” said the wily one. I want you to paint ‘entrance’ over my door.” THE OPINION OF A LIFE-LONG TEETOTALER "In the attempt to bring about |otal abstinence through prohibition, an evil even greater than intemperance resulted—namely, a nation-wide disregard for law.” —John D.

Weekly Garden-Graph, Written by DEAN HALLIDAY for Cantril Prtu Canidiia Feeding ahruba In the spring most of us spray cer­tain shrubs, prune those which ra-. quire it, cultivate the ground aboutthem and feel our work is welldone. -Feeding of shrubs is usuallyneglected, and yet we expect themto flower and bear fruit year afteryear.The proper method of feedingshrubs is shown in this Garden-Graph. Scatter the fertilizer in acircle under the shrub and thenwork It into the soil with a strong­toothed rake. In the fall a secondfeeding can be given.Exceptions to the above methodare rhododendrons and azaleas. Donot cultivate the ground underthem. Keep a mulch around thesetwo types of shrubs all the year■round, both to protect their tendersurface toots and to keep themfrom drying out. CARS and TRUCKS Sa m S a y s ..

Employees To Be Located Here A small new building to house tools and equipment on the C. N.

Previously, when troubles were en­ countered with the automatic block system or repairs were required to cars, men had to be sent from Lon­ don to do the work.

The plan went into effect here May 1st. USED TO WAKE UPWITH AHEADACHENow Freah and LivelyEvery MorningHere is a man who woke up everymorning with a dull headache.

Heath,him and Vance go to Markham s officeand learn that Kenyon Renting s bodyhas been found In the East River.While there Fraim Falloway unexpec­tedly makes his appearance. ____ A few moments later Fraim Fallo- wav was shown into the office.‘'Tell us whatM on your mind. Mr Falloway." Vance spoke softly.' I ll tell you, all right," the youthsaid in quick, tremulous accents. "Ihat — that beautiful alexandritestone ij gone from the collection.I'm sure it’s been stolen." ,Even I remenibered the stone—in unusuallw large and beautifully rut octagonal stone of perhaps fortycarats, which was in a place ofhonor, in the most conspicuous case, surrounded by other specimens ofchrysoberyl. "I don't know anything aboutthose stones in the collection,” Fal­ loway went on excitedly, "but I doknow about this magnificent alexan­drite. It always fascinated me—it waEhbe only gem in the collectionJ_£gred anything about. In the day­ time it was the most marvellousgreen, like dark jade, with onlytouches of red in it; but at night, in the artificial light, it changed itscolor completely and became a thrilling red, like wine."This morning—a little while apo—-I went downstairs to look at it: I needed something—something . . .Rut it wasn’t green at all. It was still red. almost purple. And afterI had looked at it a while in amaze­ment. I realized that even the cut- terlocking-squares symbol that had come to have such a sinister por­tent for us all. “What shall I do—what shall Ido?” Kenting asked, glancing dis­ tractedly from Vance to the DistrictAttorney and back again.“Really, y’know," said Vance in a kindly tone, "you can’t dd’anythingat present You must wait for the forthcoming instructions. And thenthere's Mr. Fleet's billet-doux whichwe hope to see anon."By the by, Mr. Kenting, I don’tsuppose you heard the shots# that were fired at Mr. Fleel shortly afteryou left your brother’s house last night?”"No, I didn’t” Kenting seemedgreatly perturbed. “I was fright­ fully shocked on hearing about itthis morning. When I left you last night I was lucky enough to catch ataxicab just as I reached the corner,and I went directly home." Kenting considered the matter fora minute: then he looked up sharply with a frightened expression.“Perhaps those shots were inten­ded for me! . .“Oh, no, no—nothing like that,”Vance assured him. "I’m quite sure the shots were not intended for you,sit. The fact is, I am not convincedthat the shots were intended even for Mr. Fieri”"What do you mean by that?” Before Vance could answer, abuzzer sounded on Markham's desk. Markham had barely given instruc­tions that Fleel be sent in whenthe lawyer joined us. He, too, looked pale and drawn and showedunmistakable traces of lack of rest, —he appeared to have lost much ofhis earlier self-confidence. Flee! moved toward the DistrictAttorney’s, desk. "I brought thenote I received in the mail this morning," he said, fumbling in hispocket "There’s no reason what­ever why I should be getting any­ thing like this—unless the kidnap­pers imagine that I control all the Kenting money and have it oq de­posit." Flee! had drawn an envelope fromhis inside coat pocket and held itout to Markham. As he did so his eyes fell on the note that Kentinghad brought and which lay oh theDistrict Attorney’s desk."Do you mind if I take a look atthis?” he asked! “Go right ahead,” answered Mark­ham as he opened the envelope Fleelhad given him. The note that Flee! turned over to Markham was not as long as theone received by Kenting. It was.however, written on the same kind of paper; and it was written in pen­cil and in the same handwriting. You have double-crossed us.You have.control of the money.Get busy. And don’t try anymore foolishness again. Youarc a good lawyer and can ting was different. It was the samesue and shape—but that was all.Oh, I know every facet of thatalexandrite. It was not the same stone. It had been taken away andanother stone left in its placet . . ." He fumbled nervously in his out­side pocket and finally drew out a large deep-colored gem“That’s what was left in the placeof my beloved alexandrite 1” Vance took the stone and lookedat it a moment. "Yes, I see what you mean—quite," he said. “As good a substi­tution as possible This is merely amethyst. Of comparatively littlevalue. Similar to alexandrite, how­ ever, and often mistaken for it byamateurs. Can you say with anyaccuracy when the exchange was made?”Falloway shook his head vaguelyand *at down heavily. "No,” he said phlegmatically. "As1 told you. I haven’t seen it in day­ light lor two days, and last night1 looked at it for just a second and didn’t realize that it wasn't the alex­andrite. I discovered the truth thismorning." Vance again looked at the stoneand handed it back to Falloway."Return it to the case as soon asyou reach home And say nothingshout it to any one till I speak to you again."Falloway rose heavily. "I’ll pul the stone back in placeright away.”"Oh. by the by. Mr. Falloway.” Vance drew himself, up sharply. 'If,as you have intimated, your favor­ ite cutting of the alexandrite wasstolen, could you suggest the pos­sible thief? Could it. for instance, have been any one you know?”"You mean some one in the house? — or Mr. Quaggy or .Mr,Fieri?” retorted Falloway with ashow of indignationa “What would they want with dy alexandrite?”He shook his head shrewdly. "But I have an idea who did take it”"Ahl""Yesl I know more that? you tl ink I do. It was Kaspar—that’swho in, was I" “But Kaspar is dead. His bodyfound last night.""A damned good riddance!” Vance’s announcement left Fallo­way unruffled. "I was hoping hewouldn’t come back.”"He won’t,” interjected Markhamlaconically, staring at the youth with unmistakable disgustMarkham’s secretary came again • through the leather door, just be­fore Falloway reached it, and an­nounced Kenyon Kenting. A$ Kenting stepped into the of­fice )t was, obvious that he was in a perturbe±tstate»of mind. Going- to Markham's desk, he dejectedly pkiced an cnyelope before the Dis­trict Attorney."That came in the second mail lh e BRAY CHICK Does theTrick! Jas.

We expect to see you ac­cording to instructions in ourletter to Kenting today in thisyear of our Lord, 1938, or elseit will be too bad.The interlocking, Ink-brushedsquares completed the message.Vance rose and confronted thetwo unstrung men.“There is much to be done yet," he said. “And we are most sympa­thetic and eager to be helpful. I would advise that you both remainin your offices until you have heardsomething further. We will cer­tainly communicate with you later,and we appreciate ^he cooperation you are giving us. . . . By the by,"—he spoke somewhat offhand to Ken­ ting—“has your money been re­turned to you?” “Yes, yes, Vance.” It was Mark­ham's impatient voice that answered.“Mr. Kenting received the money the first thing this morning. Twoof the men in the Detective Division across the hall delivered it to him.”"Most efficient," sighed Vance. He addressed Fleel and Kentingagain.“We will, of course, expect to hear immediately wfaen you receive “Perhaps the shots were intended for me I” any further communication, or if any new angle develops." His tone wasone of polite dismissal. “Don’t worry on that score, Mr.Vance.” Kenting was reaching forhis hat. “As soon as either one of us gets the instructions promised inmy note, you'll hear all about it.” A few moments later he and Fleelleft the office together.,^ Vance swung swiftly about andwent to Markham’s desk. “That note to Fleel I” he ex­claimed. “I don’t like it, Markham. I don't at all like it It is the mostcurious concoction. I must see itagain.” As he spoke he picked up thanote oace more and, resuming his chair, studied the paper with farmore interest and care than he had shown when the lawyer and Ren­ting had been present “You notice, of course, that bothnotes were cancelled in the samepost-office station as was yesterday's communication — the WestchesterStation. “I cannot understand the refer­ence to ‘this year of our Lord.' Itdoesn't belong here. It’s out of key.My eyes go back to it every time Ifinish reading the note. It bothers me frightfully. Something was inthe writer's mind—he had a strange thought at that time. It may be en­tirely meaningless, or it could havebeen written into the note with some very subtle significance for some onewho was expected to see it.” “I noticed that phrase, too," saidMarkham. "It is curious; but, in my opinion, it means nothing at all.”"I wonder. . , .” Vance raised hishand and brushed it lightly over his forehead. Then he got to his feetz“I’d like to be alone a while with this note. Where can I go—are thejudges’ chambers unoccupied?” Markham looked at him in puz­zled amazement"You can go into my private office, you damned prima donna.”Markham pointed to a narrow do dr in the west wall of the poom. “You'llbe alone in there. Shall' I let you know when Heath gets here?”Carrying the note before him, v ance opened the side door andwent out of the room.It was fully ten minutes before Vance emerged from the privateoffice. In the meantime Heath hadarTl£d a?d w as w ait*n8 impatiently.When Vance re-entered the roomhe threw a quick glance in Heath’sdirection.“Cheerio, Sergeant,”' he greeted Heam.

HERE ARE THE PERFORMANCE FACTS: The exclusive Chevrolet Six Valve­ in-Head engine develops its full 85,horsepower—without extra, gasoline- hungry cylinders! Recent road tests have again demonstrated this Valve- the other cars in its class with faster hill-climbing—and faster acceleration through every speed range. AND HERE ARE THE ECONOMY FACTS: Owners report getting as high as 25 and 27 miles to the gallon of gas, consistently. They’re unanimous in saying that the new Chevrolet saves them money on oil. And, as many point out, Chevrolet costs less than any other car for upkeep. BUT JUDGE FOR YOURSELF. Come to our showrooms, take the wheel, and let your own driving reactions tell you, “It’s wise to choose the Chevrolet SIX „ for power plus economy.” ★Your dealer will gladly, short you the actual results of the tests.

Plant Hormones Open New Field The use of plant hormone mater­ ials for the promotion of root de­ velopment on cuttings and -other things is one of the latest sciences to be developed in the agricultural field and promises to become more valu­ able as the possibilities of hormones a»e thoroughly explored. There are now in the market sev­ eral hormone ^preparations which if used according to manufacturers* in­ structions should give good results. The hormone substances in these preparations are: Indole-butyric acid, naphthal-butyric acid, indole-acetic acid and naphthal-acetic acid. These chemical substances made by labor­ atory process have the effect in pro­ moting root development when used in minute amounts. An over-dose will depress rooting rather than aid it, and this makes it necessary to use at a rate of only a few parts per million. The manufacturers’ instruct­ ions emphasize and give the details regarding this. Some very fine results from the use of these hormone preparations have been obtained in the laboratory and under field conditions. The control of plant tbormone pre­ parations now comes under the Fer­ tilizers Act which means that the public is safeguarded against extrav­ agant and misleading claims regard­ ing them. * THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MAY 12, 1988 Let Us Give You An Estimate On Your Next PAINTING AND DECORATING WORK Spray Pain^tig and Floor Resurfacing a Speciality dk.

Just why anybody should be nervous about this combination is.not known, but it’s here and there’s nothing you can do about it. If any one breaks a leg, loses mon­ ey or a wife tomorrow you can lay a 2-to-l-bet (and collect) that the vic­ tims will plunk an accusing thumb down on the day and date, "jtist be­ cause.” Those who steer dear of ladders, mirrors and other reportedly ill- omened objects, will point out there were 13 at the .Last Supper, including Judas Iscariot, who next day, tradi­ tionally a Friday* betrayed Jesus Christ. But, say those who taboo the crossed-finger and wood touching rituals, how about Columbus? Didn’t he sail on a Friday and discover land on another Friday — October 12, 1492? True, it wasn’t the 13th, but it was as close as anyone could cometo it. It is generally conceded Friday is fin unlucky day no matter the date. The Encyclopaedia Brittanica says that "according to Mohommedan tradition, Friday, which is the Mos­ lem Sabbath, wps the day on which Adam was created, entered Paradise and was expelled, and it was the day of his repentance, the day of his death and will be the Day of Resur­ rection." It has all boiled down to that mys­ terious “13”. If anyone can prove —by actual data in recording of events—that this numeral is jinxed, a lot of arguments will be clinched. One comforting thought is, that after tomorrow, Friday, the 13th, won’t appear until January, 1939, another visit is down for October, 1939 and in September and Decem­ber, 1940, it visits again. lenn Hint Spiced Baked Slice HamScalloped PotatoesCabbage and Carrot SaladApple Betty TeaBuy a ham butt or half a ham ifyou can use it Have the butchercut off the slice required for thespiced baked bam, then you can nullor bake the rest of the piece ana u-eit to the last bit even boiling thebone with beans ,for bean soup.That is the way the efficient house­wife operates.— ■ I To-day’s Recipes SPICED BAKED HAM. - Havaham cut one and one-half to twoinches’ thick, stick with 25 wholecloves.

On milddays take your bouse plants out doorsand let them enjoy the soft springrain. It’s a good idea, too, to laythe pots on their sides and spray theunder sides of the foliage with thegarden hose. This will dislodgemany insects as well as dust. LAUNDRY HINTS The old adage “Haste makes waste” is truer in no place than in the home laundry. From the very minute the clothes are sorted for washing to the final putting away in chest and cupboard, methodical or­ ganization is of prime importance. Care in washing makes for ease in ironing. It always seemed so silly to me to wring wrinkles in clothes because it makes just that much more work to iron them out. If you put clothes through the wringer straight and fold them straight when you take them from the line many wrinkles will be entirely eliminated and you will save yourself many min­ utes of ironing time. Another trick of easy ironing is to dampen clothes with warm water and let them wait long enough for the moisture to be­ come evenly distributed.
