Perfect weather conditions and a large crowd on Friday evening, made the Ingersoll Pipe Band’s fourth an­ nual Tattoo the greatest success of all. The parade of bands formed up at the Market Square and from there paraded through the business section of the town before the many people who lined Thames street to watch the nine bands as they marched to Victoria Park. The bands taking part from other centres were: Till- sonburg Citizens’ Band, Paris Lad­ ies’ L.O.B.A. Band, Oxford Rifles Bugle Band, Woodstock; Elgin Regi­ ment Bugle Band, St. Thomas; Brantford Boys’ Band, Pressey Tran­ sport Band, Sarnia; Norwich Citi­ zen’s Band, St Thomas Pipe Band and Woodstock Boys* Band. Ex-Mayor J. M. Wilson acted as chairman and introduced the bands over the loud speaker system as they marched in front of the grnadstand Mayor A. H. Edmonds delivered the official address of welcome to the visiting bands and the many who were present for the Tattoo. In his remarks he paid tribute to the Inger­ soll Pipe Band for the fine work they are doing to advertise Ingersoll throughout the rest of the Prov­ ince. The program opened with the massed bands playing "0 Canada,” and “The Maple Leaf Forever,” later individual bands contributed several numbers. A fine group of entertain­ ers were also heard during the even­ ing, chief among these being Willie Bell’s troupe from London and Mrs. Hugh McIntyre of St, Thomas who favored the audience with several Scotch songs. The members of Willie Bell’s troupe included Johnny Dearmo, accordionist; Miss Monica Dodd, Canada’s champion girl piper, who also thrilled the crowd with her several dances; Willie Bell himself, whose songs and stories kept the aud­ ience in constant laughter and Miss Jan Martin who accompanied the artists at the piano. The Elgin Regiment Band of St. Thomas, gave a very fine night light drill. For this the floodlights were turned out and a light was affixed to the helmet of each man. The band went through many intricate movements with the lighted helmets and their efforts brought loud ap­ plause from the audience. W. J. Langstroth of Ingersoll, also added to the evening’s entertainment with a fine demonstration of fiery baton twirling. During the evening, Pipe Major Alex. Collins received two cups on behalf of the Ingersoll Pipe Band, fiom Mr. Tclfer of Brantford, who explained that these had been won for best performance on the field and also for being the best band in its class at the recent tattoo in Brantford. Mr. E. T. Pressey, head of the Pressey Transport Band and Lieut. Andrew Wiggins, Secretary of the Bandmasters’ Association of Canada, both spoke briefly during the even­ ing, the former complimenting the Ingersoll Pipe Band for their fine work at the recent Sarnia Tattoo while Lieut Wiggins stated that he was very glad to see Tattoos being held in so many different centres. IN MEMORIAM During evening’s intermission, ^he booth*i on the ground, which wereoperated!j^Mie Ingersoll Dairy andthe Le^l■ Auxiliary, were very well patronizB1.

Twenty-four veterans made up the party and circulars were distributed along the route to adver­ tise a special International Veterans* gathering at the Michigan State Fair at Detroit later this month.

VEALE, PublisherPHONES Tribune Office. 13 - Residence, 442A.THURSDAY, AUGUST 4th, 1938 _____ Our Western People Eyes are focussed more or less upon the Prairie Provinces at this time because of the good crops that axe reported this year. Data collected during the quinquennial census have brought to light many im­ portant features. In all three provinces, the proportion of urban population has declined due to the effect of the agricultural depression upon the commerce and in­ dustry of urban communities, while the rural popu­ lation has increased in spite of the conditions of hardship and privation. A pronounced movement of rural population has been from southern Saskat­ chewan to the northern part and into northern Al­ berta. Alberta has shown the greatest population inciease. Although there is still an excess of males over fe­ males in the three provinces, the proportions between the sexes have been brought more nearly to a bal­ ance. In Manitoba and Saskatchewan, the increase in population in the five-year period has been ac­ counted for by the increase of females; in Saskat­ chewan there was an actual decrease of males. De­ creases in male population were found to be chiefly among the single men. The married population in­ creased in all three provinces. There has been a decline in the population of Brit­ ish races in the last five years in Manitoba and Sas­ katchewan, and a slight increase in Alberta. People of French,origin have slightly decreased in Saskat­ chewan but have increased in the other two. Marked increases have taken place in the number of Germans and Ukrainians. These, however, should be inter­ preted with reserve as there has been a great deal of confusion in the reporting of the Teutonic and Slavic races in the period since the War. This information comes from the Census Branch of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, Department of Trade and Commerce. o 0 Three Leaves For Poison Health authorities state that in many parts of Can­ ada ivy poisoning is common. In those sections where it does occur, hikers should avoid touching poison ivy, poison sumac or anything resembling them. They should not walk through underbrush or let their clothing come in contact with any three- leafed vine. Poison ivy w’hich sprouts over so much of the countryside is also known as poison oak, poison vine and poison crey>er. It can be recognized by its leaf, which is divided into three leaflets. Its flower is a small greenish one and its fruit pale green during the early part of summer. After ripening the fruit turns ivory white. The Virginia creeper, which is also very common, is not poisonous. It is distinguished by having five leaflets. Far less common, but just as poisonous, is a large shrub known as poison sumac, poison elder and pois­ on ash. Its bark is light gray, its leaves compound, from seven to fourteen inches long. Persons whd come in contact .with poison ivy are likely to find a peculiar inflammation of the skin break out at the point of contact with the ivy, a few hours afterwards. Sometimes there is a slight red­ ness and itching; with others, large swellings with extensive blisters, accompanied by a severe burning sensation. When poison ivy or poison sumac has been acci­ dentally touched, the hands should be immediately washed with coal oil, alcohol or non ethyl gasoline. If unable to obtain^ any of these at once, washingjwith strong soap^T recommended. As cold creams and ointments may dissolve and spread the poison, they should not be used. Veterinary Science Veterinary science although confined chiefly to the health of animals, , indirectly protects human beings against such communicable diseases as tuber­ culosis. But it was not until the 18th century that it was studied systematically. According to the census of 1931, there were 1,046 veterinaries in Canada. The Dominion has only fwo colleges offering degrees in this science, one in Que­ bec and one in Ontario. The number of graduates annually is now around 50; about one-third of them are from the United States. It is interesting to note that there is no veterinary college in the Western or Maritime Provinces, al­ though these provinces possess over two-thirds of the horses and nearly half of the cattle in the country— the two kinds of livestock which take up the greatest amount of the veterinarians* time. About 30 per cent of the Dominion veterinaries are to be found in the large cities, a number of them being attached to Departments of Agriculture and serving a province-wide area. There are fewer veterinaries in Canada now than 25 yeans ago. The average age of those now practis­ ing is about 50. This is further evidence that the supply is not being maintained. Those under 25 years of .age 'numbered 12 and there were 164 over the age of 65. . This information comes from the Educational Branch of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, Depart­ ment of Trade and Commerce. Motor Manners Ralph Waldo Emerson once "wrote: ‘ILife is not too short but tha|%there is always time for courtesy." There is more need for this sage .philosophy now than (when he wrote it before the motor car was invented. The automate has made many of ua into selfish boons. If drivers behaved as considerably when be­ hind the wheel as they do in the,•'drawing room, the death rate on the highways would soon be sliced to a fraction of its present proportions. Let’s have more courtesy, better manners, more sportsmanship on the road! THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, AUGUST 4, 1938Hay FeverThe perennial argument as to whether Golden Rodproduces hay fever is something of a joke to every­one except the unfortunate sufferers of that uncom­fortable disease. There is no amusement in it forthe oountleea thousands who know they will be miser­able from the middle of August until the fronts levelthe weeds of the countryside. Health authorities now generally agree that the Golden Rod is innocent of any great distress. The ubiquitous rag weed which flies its obnoxious pollen from every abandoned field and wild fence line is said to be at fault. During recent years much study has been given to the cause and cure of hay fever. It has been discovered that some few persons are susceptible to irritation from sources from roses on down. There is no cure ex­ cept escape to such favored spots where there Is no vegetable growth. Cutting of the rag weed twice a season, preventing its flowering, has been found to alleviate suffering. Some tourist resorts have found it profitable to spread oil on mosquito breeding swamps and the cutting of weeds should prove no more diffi­ cult once the value of the practice is understood. Prom Conductor Honored The 1938 automobile is a marvel of speed, power and safety, but the 1938 pedestrian is the same plod­ ding individual he was 100 years ago. He hasn’t any all-steel body; nor has nature streamlined him so he can move any faster in this age of speed. He has one advantage, however, if he will use it He can make up for his slow feet by his quick ;wits. He can avoid making the same mistakes which brought death to 297 pedestrians an injury to 3,452 others last year on Ontario’s street and highways. In response to demands from allparts of the United States the Na­tional Broadcasting Company hasarranged to broadcast the weeklyprogram of the Toronto PromenadeSymphony Orchestra, under the di­rection of Reginald Stewart,ABOVE, from more than 85 stationsto every section of Canada and theU. S. Mr. Stewart has been fur­ther honored by an invitation toconduct two concerts of the Nation­al Symphony orchestra in Wash­ington this month. W. C. T. U.

AUGH1NBAUGH, M.D. HAIR EATING The custom of hair-eating, especially among adoles­ cent females, is not uncommon, and was much more prevalent when women and girls wore their hair long than it is today. During the period when women wore their hair in braids, twisted about their heads or hanging over their shoulders, it was customary to pull the hair through the teeth or bite the ends of the braided tresses, and swallow them, either inten­ tionally or accidentally. These hair eaters were usual­ ly girls and women of normal mentality but inclined to be more or less nervous. Insane persons, it should be observed, have a decid­ ed preference for more solid objects such as nails, needles, pins, tacks, bits of wood, small keys and the like, and the amount of this miscellaneous junk they can swallow without any apparent discomfort is be­ yond belief. Animals .with long hairs have the habit of cleansing their bodies by licking with their tongues. In time they too accumulate enormous balls of hair in their stomach which when found, are considered to possess great value as charms and for' which butchers received relatively good prices. HOUSE and HOME - by Mary E. Dague - Author of Sister Mary’s Kitchen soul-stirring music in the world; the plaintive, long-drawn notea of a bugle sounding “Taps" on the hill­ top beneath whose sod lie the bones of thousands who perished on the slopes and in the valley. Row on row of white stones mark the graves of men who were buried where they fell; their names, their regiments, even the color of the uni­ forms they wore are forever un­ known. A week before the reun­ ion workmen unearthed another skel­ eton on the battlefield. All that can ever be known is that those bones, too, are an American’s. I took leave of my century-old hosts of both armies with a feeling of sorrow mingled with pride that I was of their breed, of the line of those venerable American heroes over most of whom, before another Independence Day rolls around, the bugles will be sounding “taps”, the soldier’s last farewell.

OPERATIONS NECESSARY In ti’me the accumulation of these hair ends in the the human stomach causes distress and often neces­ sitates a surgical operation. I have had several cases where the stomach was positively distended due to the amoun^of hair ingested for many years, and have known of instances in which the hair passed from the stomach into the small intestines and perforated them, resulting in death. One of these hair balls removed from the stomach of a woman of 35 years weighed 16.5 ounces and represented the accumula­ tion of twenty-five years. Seamstresses frequently have similar balls of hair in their stomachs, due to biting off ends of thread, incident to their occupa­ tion. The great trouble experienced by the physician or surgeon is in making a diagnosis, inasmuch as most of the symptoms complained of are typical of numerous other diseases such as carcinoma, displaced spleen, floating kidney, fecal impaction and tumors.

After you clean and polish your candlesticks and andirons or any other brass and copper pieces try covering them with a thin coating of colorless lacquer. Then, instead of spending hours this summer keeping them bright and gleaming you will only need to dust them. Use a good metal polish specially recom­ mended for the metal you are clean­ ing. Rub well with the cleaner and kt dry. Then rub off all the polish­ ing material and at the same time bring up the luster of the metal. Wash each piece in a hot light suds and wipe perfectly dry. Rub off with a soft cloth dipped" in denatured alcohol and then apply a thin even coat of the lacquer with a fine paint brush. I do this every spring to every piece of brass and copper in my house'and it never tarnishes all summer. You can treat pewter the same way if you like this metal to shine.• • * •Here's a secret for you who love wild flower gardens tucked into your evergreen borders.

So do not play tennis, hike, ride or swim with too much enthusiasm the first few days. A .whole vacation can be ruined if you overdo things. And this applies to sun as well as exer­ cise. A bad dose of 'sunburn can, and frequently does, spoil your holiday. TODAY andTOMORROWby Frank Barker StockbridgeAMERICANS .... devotionI was one of the 150,000 who wentto Gettyabung for the great reunion encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic and the United Con­ federate Veterans. Eighteen hundred old men—their average age was 94 and many were centenarians—met in the tented city on the spot where the decisive battle which turned the tide of the War between the States was fought in the first three days of July, 1863. Ancient enmities were forgotten, old hatreds buried, as the foes of 75 years ago fraternized In each oth­ er’s tents and swapped tall stories, magnified by time, of their youthful experiences in war. As I mingled with them and listened to them the one thing that struck me most for­ cibly, was that these former foes were all Americans. Americans fought Americans 75 years ago. Looking back over his­ tory, it is clear to me that Blue and Gray alike were fighting for Amer­ ica. They differed in their con­ cepts of the American ideal of Lib­ erty but were alike in their fierce devotion to the American spirit. They were willing to lay down their lives for a spiritual cause. So long as Americans cherish the spirit of Liberty as these men did, our dem­ ocracy is safe. If that spiritual de­ votion dies out in the youth of Am­ erica, we are a lost nation. HEROISM .... fighter. On the battlefield of Gettysburg are hundreds of statues, monuments and memorial tablets. The one which impressed me most with the heroism of the Americans who fought each other there is a bronze figure of a soldier brandishing his clubbed musket like a flail. War was waged at close quarters in the days of short- range muzzle-loading muskets. To fire his single shot effectively a sol­ dier had to expose himself to the enemy’s fire, then fall back and re- .oad. And when there was no time to re­ load, it was hand-to-hand fighting with clubbed muskets. Pickett’s gallant charge on the Union breastworks at Gettysburg was fought in that way. Nine-tenths of his 4,000 brave boys in Gray were left dead or dying on the slopes of the narrow' valley. In modern war­ fare most of the fighting is between opponents who hardly see each other. It took heroes to fight a war in 1863. L E E ....................................leadership The outstanding figure among the monuments on Gettysburg battlefield is the bronze statue of General Rob­ ert E. Lee,, astride of his famous war-horse, “Traveler.” And in the hearts of both Blue and Gray, as I listened to the ancient foes talking over the great figures and episodes of Civil War days. Lee seemed to stand first in the admiration of both sides, as a soldier and as a man. If Lee had accepted Lincoln’s offer of command of the Union ar­ mies, the war wouldn’t have lasted six months,” I heard one blue-coated veteran say, while the group around him echoed the sentiment. There is more back of the uni­ versal tribute paid to General Lee’s memory on both sides of the Mason and Dixon line than the sentimental glamour which always surrounds the leader of a lost cause. North ahd South alike honor him because, among all the figures in the great struggle, he stood out as one who combined honor with leadership, Courage with character. UNION .... democracy More years have passed since the battle of Gettysburg than the life of the nation under the Constitution up to then. President Lincoln, in his immortal address four month* after the battle, spoke of the war as a test of endurance of a government founded in democracy. Democracy has endured for 75 years since he spoke. “If Lincoln had lived it would have been easier for the ■South," said an old Confederate officer in camp, “but in spite of that, I think the boys all agree that it is better for our grandchildren and their grand­ children that it turned out as it did. We’re all one nation instead of two. We’re all Americans and we belong together. That is how old men, reflecting the wisdom that comes with years, look back on the history they helped to make.

DANIELS COAL - COKE - WOOD Charles Street W«*t PHONESOffice, 232 Residence, 105X Army Worm InfestationShows Signs of AbatementEvidence of abatement of thearmy worm infestation in OxfordCounty exists in the fact that theforms are entering the pupa stage,states G. R. Green, agricultural rep­resentative, for the county. Investi­gation by Mr. Green on farms in theHickson and Cassel neighborhoodshave shown in each case that theworms are now leaving the plants onwhich they have been feeding andgoing under lumps of earth or luftaof sod to become pupa. The moths which emerge from the pupa will normally appear again in late August and September. These moths will lay a second crop of eggs which will hatch in 10 to 12 days. The young larvae from these eggs winter in a partially grown condition beneath tufts of grass and other low herbiage, and will complete their growth next spring. Moths from these caterpillars normally appear again in June. There is little likelihood, however, Mr. Green states, that the army worm will do any serious damage next year. Experience indicates, he said, that nature will always provide a control that prevents serious infes­ tation two years running. Some evidence has been found in Oxford County, Mr. Green said, to indicate that parasites have already attacked the worms in the present infestation. Deadly army worms, ap­ parently killed by other insects, have been found on the stalks and heads of grain crops. Among the insects which are known to attack the army worm are the red-tailed tachina fly, which lays eggs on the body of the army worm and which in the maggot stage feeds on the army worm’s body; several species of small braconic flies which in the larva stage live inside the army worm’s body -and feed on the host; several species of the larger ichneumonid flies, the female of which punctures the skin of the army worm to lay her eggs inside the army worm’s body; several sorts of ground beetle of the genus Cal- osoma which hunt out the army worms and devour them eagerly. Butter Dealer Heavily Fined A manufacturer and dealer in creamery butter in one of Canada’s larger cities was recently fined $50 and costs for representing and selling second grade butter as being of first grade quality. ft was branded with the words “First Grade.” Section 28 of the regulations under Part II of the Dairy' Industry Act states in effect that any package con­ taining creamery butter must be marked so as to give a true and accurate description bf the quality of the butter contained therein. Any Province in Canada can give this section of The Dairy Industry Act and Regulations the force of law by enacting the necessary legis­ lation. This has been done by every province except Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. It is the intent of this law that consumers of butter will have some guarantee as to the quality of their purchases. The terms used to des­ cribe the quality of butter are “First Grade,’’ “Second Grade”, “Third Grade,” and “Below Third Grade.” These terms are conspicuously placed on the main panel of the package and should serve as a guide to purchasers. The marking of creamery butter with the grade as described has proven to be an incentive to the production of a higher quality pro- dutt which should stimulate con­ sumption of butter and thus prove to be a decided benefit to the dairy industry generally.

Since thenthere has been no recognition ofthe “color line” amongst British sub­jects—No more could a human life be bought. No more could one class of community rule* another class; for all were to be free to enjoy the same privileges; and all must share the same responsibilities. What an experience for those who had known nothing but bondage— But what a time for adjustment, for those poor people who had never felt any responsibility, beyond that of carrying out their master’s wishes, had to learn to think for themselves; to realize that they must provide for their own needs by their own labors. In short it was necessary to develop a new instinct—that of self­ preservation. Those in authority realized that such could not be accomplished in a day, nor in a month. <So for two years previous to the Emancipation Act becoming effective, the slaves served a period of apprenticeship. During that time they were given a foretaste of what would be expected of them, if their material needs were to be met in tha future as they had been in the past. For jt would be a case of no labor, no money. Patience an.d tact were always necessary for the masters, as they are today for anyone employing help. But during those two years of ap­ prenticeship, the slave-owners must have required a super-abundapce of it. For it could hardly be expected that those who had never handled money would learn its value imme­ diately. It was to be expected that in some cases more stern disciplinary measures would have to be exercised. For the very thought of freedom would be apt to go to the head. Nor were the slaves the only ones deserving consideration. Their mas­ ters had huge sums invested in lab­ our which might not be available after emancipation. To meet that situation, the sum of twenty million pounds, sterling, was appropriated for compensation, which might be said to have been the last and big­ gest deal in slavery in the British Empire. The Marquis of Sligo, who was Governor of Jamaica, addressed a letter to all slaves about to be lib­ erated. It showed the kindly interest of the master, who still felt a sense of responsibility, even though not legally bound to do so. It ran: “My Friends:—Our good king, (a term .well deserved, for William IV was a good king, whose great interest was the welfare of his people and whose love of country earned him the title of “Patriot King A”), who was himself in Jamaica long time ago, still thinks and talks a great deal of this island. He has sent me out here to take care of you and to protect your rights; but he has also ordered me to see justice done to your owners, and to punish those who do wrong. Take my advice, for I am your friend, be so^e^ honest, and work well.” He then assured them that the people of England were interested in them, that hence­ forth they would be fellow subjects, a condition made possible not by the shedding of blood, nor by the confiscation of property; but by the passing of an Act of* Parliament by the people of England themselves. They were also warned, “it will therefore depend entirely upon your own conduct, whether your appren­ ticeship shall be short or long. You will only be required to work four days andJa, half in each week; the remaining day and a half in each week will be your own time, and you may employ it for your own benefit. Bear in mind that every­ one is obliged to work; some work with their hands, some with their heads; but no one can live and be considered respectable without some employment. I pray you therefore do your'' part faithfully. I trust you will be obedient and diligent subjects to our good king, so that he may never have reason to be sorry for all the good he has done for you.” There were two points to be con­ sidered in connection with slavery, that of principle and th.i< of practice. In the httei case the pros and cons were almost equal, for it is doubtful whether life for tha average colored penons has been greatly improved. A kind master, of whom there were many, made hi? workers very com­ fortable, while the lot of the less fortunate was perhaps not worse than that of those who are still un­ fortunate. But on, the side of principle, the argument -is overwhelmingly in fav­ or of abolition, for no class, color, creed, race or nationality has any right to hold another in subjection. It is contrary to all the laws of life, and is in most cases more harmful to the one who practices it than to his victim. Only one hundred years since they were bound body and soul. Is it any wonder that our colored broth­ ers sometimes feel unequal to the problems that even prove too much for us. It is still for us to have infinite tact and patience, and it is still for them to be “obedient and diligent subjects to our good king, so that he may never have reason to be sorry.” Father—“And what are your pros­ pects?” Suitor—“Splendid — unless youi daughter has been misleading me.” Ingersoll Dairy FREEZER FRESH ICE CREAM Top* off the me*li in Summer.

WESTERN OPERATES UNIQUE FRENCH SUMMER SCHOOL Thirty-eight students are at the Fiench Summer School of the Uni­ versity of Western Ontario this year, living with their French-speak­ ing Quebec hosts, enjoying * the bountiful hospitality of the French- Canadian cooks, anc^ acquiring facil­ ity in French as used in every-day life. Directed by Professor H. E. Jenkin, the French Summer School is now in its sixth annual session at this delightful village located on the south shore of the St. Lawrence, one hundred and fifty tyiles below Quebec City. The school was inaugurated as an experiment in the summer of 1933, wnth the purpose of giving students an opportunity to live in the homes of educated private fam-, ilies where French alone is spoken, and thus to acquire an understanding and sympathetic appreciation of the life and ideals of a splendid type of French community. The course, which extends from June 30th to August 24th, this year, is designed primarily for under-graduates at the University of Western Ontario, but applications of others are con­ sidered under special circumstances. The course consists of two hours of formal class work in French each day, and an informal program of conference, sports and salt-water bathing. Tours and picnics are often taken along with, or even as guests'of some of the local French residents. The hospitality of these delightful French hosts and the suc­ cess of the project in every way have led the University to establish the School as a permanent feature of the summer program. The co-op­ eration at this school should contri­ bute much towards increasing the mutual understanding and apprecia­ tion of the English and French citi­ zens of Canada. > Professor M. E. Bassett, of the Department of Romance Languages, has made it a custom to bring back some of the charm of the little French village of Trois Pistoles in his water-colour sketches. Some very fine .work is being done under his direction. There are usually other sketch-enthusiasts at the Sum­ mer School and they find ample op­ portunity for painting, as well as quaint subjects. Professor Bassett usually brings back enough sketches for a small exhibition at/he Univer­ sity, where they are sold and the pro­ ceeds donated to a fund for sending students to Trois Pistoles. He is ac­ tively associated with the Western Art League in London, and his water­ colors are very well-known through­ out Western Ontario. TOWN COUNCIL GIVEA. E. WILSON INSURANCELengthy Discussion Over TheTown’s Public Liability In­surance. Numerous Ac­counts Passed.The greater part of the time at Tuesday evening’s meeting of the town council was taken up with the discussion of the Finance Committee report which recommended that the Town’s Public Liability Insurance be placed with the Law, Union and Rock Insurance Company at a prem­ ium of $1350.00 payable to the A. E. Wilson Co., through their local agent Mrs. Viola M.* Waterhouse, dating from May 12th, 1938, Councillor George Preston introdu­ ced a resolution to delete this cause from the report and give the insur­ ance to some other local agent. The expression of Councillors Preston, Weir and Morrison, was in opposition to the giving of tlfe insurance to A. E. Wilson Company as they did not believe Mr. Wilson had been playing the game fair with the town as he informed the council that* he did not think they could get the insurance for $1500.00, but when tenders were asked for he put in a bid of $1350.00, which was the same as three other local agents. The resolu­ tion to delete the clause from the report was lost as Councillors Mur­ ray, Clark and Smith favored the giving of the insurance to the Wil­ son Company. Other committee reports recom­ mended that accounts be paid. On motion of Weir and Smith, the Police Committee was empowered to employ a relief man to assist the police in parking on Saturday nights. Coun­ cillor Edmonds introduced the mat­ ter of complaints about dust on King street, east, to which Council­ lor Clark gave assurance that .an­ other application of Calcium Chlor­ ide would be made at once. Councillor Smith said he had heard considerable objection to the closing of the Thames street bridge at the present time to repair the roadway when traffic through town was so heavy on account of the reunion at Toronto and London. Councillor Clark in reply to an enquiry said that if the weather remained favor­ able the bridge would be open again for traffic on Friday morning. Mayor Edmonds enquired if • thq, Ingersoll Pipe Band had done any­ thing in regards to holding street concerts or in bringing other bands to town as they promised to when they were given the grant of $250 by the council early in the year. Office Boy—“There's a lady out­ side to see you, sir.” , Boss—“Tell her I’m engaged.” Office Boy—“That’s what she’s come to see you about. She claims you were to have married her today.” She—“In China a man doesn’t know his wife until after*he has m»r- ried-her.” Cynic—“Why mention China par­ ticularly?” HYMENEALMOLE—THOMASSt. James' Anglican 'Church wasthe scene of a pretty midsummerwedding on Saturday afternoon, July30th, 1938, at 2.30 o’clock, Rev. H.E. Merrifield officiating, when MissPearl Lavina Thomas, daughter ofI he late Mr. and Mrs. Albert Thomasof Woodstock, was united in marri­age to George Herbert William Mole, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. H. Mole, Ingersoll. Beautiful white asters adorned the altar while baskets of lovely mixed flowers were arranged at the chancel, and poppies on the memorial tablet. Wisteria and white satin bows were tied on the guest pews. Mrs. Edward Gilling, organist of the church presided at the organ, and preceding the cere­ mony, rendered very effectively, “I Love You Truly,” and during the signing of the register, “Because.” The winsome bride entered the church on the arm of her brother, Mr. Harold Thomas of Brussells, who gave her in marriage, and was lovely in a floor length gown of white silk georgette. Her veil of tulle, was held in place with a coronet of pearls and orange blossoms. Elbow length silk lace mittens and gold slip­ pers completed a beautiful ensemble. She carried a lovely bouquet of dark red roses with golden streamers. Miss Vera Mole, sister of the bride­ groom, becomingly gowned in a floor length frock of Cambridge blue sheer georgette, yello<v pifcture hat, yellow gloves and white shoes, and carrying a bouquet of yellow roses, was the bride’s only attendant. The groom was supported by William Westlake, Jr. Following the ceremony, a recept­ ion was held at the home of the groom’s parents, 51 Charles street west. Assisting the bride and groom in receiving the guests which numbered about Sixty, was the groom’s mother, who wore a becom­ ing frock of flowered sheer pink geor­ gette, pink hat and corsage of sweet peas and yellow roses, also Mrs. H. Thomas of Brussells, wear­ ing navy blue crepe with hat to match and Mrs. M. Thomas of Ches- ley, wearing a floor length cream lace dress with brown trim, and picture hat to match,"Sisters-in-law of the bride. The rooms were prettily dec­ orated in a color scheme of pink and white, while lovely baskets of summer bloom added to the setting. The'bride’s table with its lovely lace cloth, was centred with a beautiful three-story wedding cake, flanked on either side with crystal candlesticks and pink candles. Pink and white streamers hung from the chandelier to the corners of the table. Rev. Merrifield proposed a very appro-* priate toast to the bride, to which the groom responded. A buffet luncheon was served by girl friends of the bride. Later the happy couple left an’id showers of confetti for points cast and on their return will make their home in Ingersoll, carrying with them the best wishes of a host of friends for a happily wedded life. Among the guests present were Mr. and Mrs. Harold Thomas and family of Brussells; Mr. and Mrs. M. Jhomas of Chesley, also guests from Paris, London, and Woodstock.

Oct. 4-6 Bright Prospect* ForThe Tobacco CropAccording to the first of a seriea ofreport* in 1938 on the tobacco cropof Canada, the total area plantedshows a considerable increase overthe 1937 acreage and is the largestin the history of the Canadian indus­try. At present the are* is estim­ated at nearly 80,000 acres, as com­ pared with 64,350 acres in 1937 and 55,000 acres in 1936. The in­ creased acreage is largely planted ty flue-cured tobacco in Ontario. The report which covers crop con­ ditions up to the end of June, 1938, and crop prospect* at that date states that the general outlook for the tobacco crop was promising. Weather conditions on the whole have been , favorable, with temper­ atures about normal and moisture supplies ample, except in the Yam- aska Valley, Quebec, where growth of seedlings and transplanting was delayed by adverse weather early in the season and heavy replantings necessitated by lack of rainfall in mid-June. Growth in Ontario has been par­ ticularly rapid, and some flue-cured tobacco has almost reached the top­ ping stage. The crop in British Col­ umbia is generally well established, being somewhat early and practically free from insect pests and disease. Very little damage from insects and disease is reported from Quebec. Wireworms have been active in the Ontario crop. Root rot is preva­ lent, but damage to date is some­ what less than in 1937. The report is based on information received from the Experimental Stations, Dominion Department of Agriculture at Harrow, Ont., L’As- somption and Farnham, P.Q., and Summerland, B.C., where experi­ mental and research work in con­ nection with tobacco production is a feature, together with the reports of the crop correspondents of the Do­ minion Bureau of Statistics which issues the series. The Flue-Cured Marketing Association of Ontario, the Burley Marketing Association of Ontario, and other associations, also co-operate in this service. There has been a very substantial increase in the production of tobacco in Canada in recent years, particu­ larly in flue-cured. The principal de­ velopment has been in S. W. Ontario with Norfolk County as the centre of the activity. The value of the Canadian tobacco crop in 1937 is estimated at over $17,000,000. Harvesting of CropsWell Under WayTh* report of crop condition inCanada for the past week as furn­ished from synopsis of telegraphicreports received at the head office ofthe Bank of Montreal from it* bran­ches is outlned below:Canada has reached the actualcommencement of the harvesting season, with the prospects still good for generally satisfactory crops in every Province of the Dominion. In the Prairie Provinces grain is ripen­ ing rapidly and it is expected that in Manitoba harvesting will be gener­ al next week. In district* where crops are not so far advanced, gen­ eral rains are needed to aid filling. In Quebec the weather has been ideal for most field and fruit crops, all of whicKjare making good pro­ gress. In Ontario harvesting of grain crops is well advanced, with satisfac­ tory yields in prospect. Other crops are in favorable condition. Tobacco has made excellent progress. In the Maritime Provinces, wet weather has caused loss during the harvesting of a heavy crop of hay. Other crops are progressing satisfactorily. In British Columbia a continuation of hot, dry weather has cut prospective yields below average in quantity ex­ cept in irrigated districts where there is still ample water. In the Province of Ontario, rain has been fairly general during the past week and while delaying the harvest, it has been beneficial to growing crops and pastures. Army worm infestation and rust have cau­ sed some damage in a few sections. Cutting of fall wheat, barley and early oats is well advanced, with satisfactory yields of good quality in­ dicated. Threshing of wheat has commenced. Corn, roots and toma­ toes are making excellent progress. A heavy hay crop has been cured and stored under favorable condi­ tions. Pastures have stood up well and second growth is satisfactory. The apple crop yield is expected to be slightly below average but of good quality; early varieties are being marketed. Peach crop prospects are very favorable. Tobacco continues to make excellent progress and priming will be general in a few days. Hail damage has been severe in some relatively small areas in Norfolk County.

INGERSOLL WONHOLIDAY GAMELocal Intermediates TrouncedLeague Leading SimcoeNine By 10-0 Score.The Local Intermediates finallycrashed into the win column againon Monday afternoon, when they completely trounced the Simcoe team by a score of 10-0. The Kestle Chev­ rolets were scheduled to play Aylmer in the morning but rain interferred and it was only with a lot of hard work that the diamond was put in shape for the afternoon contest. The game was one of the finest the kcals have played this year, they seemed to work well together and had plenty of fight in them. Vic Buyers turned in a fine hurl­ ing effort, allowing but five hits and striking out six Simcoe batters. For the visitors, Aaron went the whole distance and gave up a total of eight hits, but had he had better support at crucial points in the game, the score would have been much closer. There were three extra base hits dur­ ing the game, all by Ingersoll bat­ ters. “Gump” Thornton poled out a long homer ovfer the left field fence in the third, while Henderson banged out a triple and Beemer a double during the game. The most gratify­ ing thing, however, as far as the locals were concerned, was the re­ turn to batting form of Alex. McGin­ nis who was the leading hitter for the day, getting three for four and the work of the infield who turned in two of the nicest fielding plays of the day, one of them a barehand catch by Earl Thornton and a leap­ ing catch of a high line drive in the sixth by Morin Haycock. “Gump” Thornton had the misfor­ tune to hurt his leg in the fourth when he was going into second and after playing the next inning he was taken out, Henderson moving into centre and Longsworth taking over Henderson's duties in right.

Dave slapped his knee. “Then that's the hombre! He's the onlyman we know that wants both our spread and your mine. He’s theonly jasper that we know of.“Where is he now?” Rosy cut in. “Gone,” Hammond said. "He tookthe morning train out. He come inhere around seven o’clock, about ten minutes before the train went,and made me an offer for the mine. Said he just come on a hunch.” Rosy broke in. “What did helook like?”Hammond thought a moment be­fore replying. “Short, dark. Got a thin face and dark eyes. Wears darkclothes, city clothes. Got a funny habit of lookin' at your tie or yourcollar. Don’t weigh more’n a hun­dred an' thirty.” Rosy rammed his hands in hispockets and paced the floor, smok­ ing furiously. Suddenly, he turnedon Hammond and Dave."And he’ll be > ba*k," Rosy said decisively, “if I got this figgeredout right. While he thinks you andDave are fightin’ mad and wheneverything looks hopeless. He’ll beback and he’ll be back with cash I” Hammond looked around on a'*idc tai; . :lrn asced Dorsev: 1 When they reached the MileHigh, Jackson reined up. “Have adrink?” Rosy shook his head. ‘T've gotsome business.

You’llsee me all right, but if I can’t secyou and I don't remember it, Board­ man wanted me to ask Turner forthe loan of a man day after tomor­ row.” He thought he saw a smile starton the smaller man's face, then dis­ appear Jackson nodded and swungoff his horse. Rosy watched him dis­mount, stretch and swagger into the Mile High. Rosy urged his horse onthoughtfully. He swung down be­fore the Free Throw. He hadn’tseen Quinn for a while. Maybe thegambler would have supper with him.As he shouldered he saw that thegambling was slack, but there was asmall crowd around Quinn’s table.He saw Rosy and motioned him over.“Can Winters afford to lose athousand dollars at poker?" he asked irrelevantly. Rosy looked quickly at money? He couldn’t get it fromMary's share oi the ranch.He left the room. As he wasgoing down the stairs he met thesame strange still-eyed man that hadcome in the restaurant. Was this jasper following him?He dismissed it with a shrug.Downstairs, he inquired of the clerk: “Any one by the name oLCrowell registered here?”"A. J. Crowell? No. he left this mornin’.”Outside, he decided to look in theMile High to see if Jackson was in t talkative mood.Once through the swinging doors,the rank smell of alcohol and cheap tobacco struck him in the face likea thick, miasmic fog. A glanceiround told Rosy that here was where the hard-cases of the townand surrounding country hung outIn once glance, he took in the faroand monte tables and finally the bar.He grinned. Planted smack in dead center of the bar was Laredo Jack-son, five feet of elbow room on eachside of hm.

Rosy idly noted that Hammond worehalf-boots, the tracks of which could not possibly jibe with thetrack he had seen up by the lake.And Hammond was smoking a pipe too, n^t tailor-made cigarettes."And that ain’t all," Rosy said,still pacing the floor. “How could Crowell have been around theseparts and kept hidden long enough to drill them holes for the dyna­mite? There was lots of them, andin hard rock.” "He couldn't," Hammond said.Rosy looked at him a long time. "That means that Crowell ain’tdone the dynamitin’ at all. It wasdone by some one he hired, someunderstrappers that could travelarofand in this country and not be noticed much.” Rosy paused in his pacing and leaned on the bed.“Gents, we've walked into some­thin’ that'll take a lot of biowin' up. I aim to start right now. There stracks up there at that lake. I’m hittin’ for the lake.”Dave thought a moment. “There’sno reason why we shouldn't split up. They separated, Rosy headed backto town.

The stranger was asmall man, mounted on a big roan gelding that made him look like awizened, monkey-faced little jockey.He had great, drooping sandy mustaches that were generously-shot with gray. “Howdy," he greeted Rosy."Dave Turner’s new boss, ain’t you?”Rosy nodded.“I’m Laredo Jackson, Boardman's foreman.

Here was prob­ably some crank of an old cowpoke that had a pet solution for everycrime. They rode on in silence.“You said back there a ways youhad a guess as to what’s behind all this.

Quinn drew an envelope from hispocket and handed it to Rosy, who could feel the limpness of well-wornbills. * "Keep it," Quinn said. Rosy looked at him. "It’s yours.If Winters can't take care of him­ self, he shouldn’t gamble."Quinn laughed quietly. "Be sensi­ ble man. That money wasn't hon­estly come by.”“You mean you used a cold deck?” Rosy asked slowly.**Quinn nodded. “I figured he couldn't afford to lose it. You seeI’d heard about his wife.”Rosy didn’t comment.“1 used marked cards,” Quinnwent on casually. “1 Jigured I'd clean him and then talk to you. Ifhe could afford it, -all right. I'd let him win it back and thed play himon the level. If he couldn't, it wentback to his wife. It’s better than lettin’ him lose it at the other saloon,isn’t it?”“I reckon,” Rosy said."Ever since I got in town twoweeks ago,” Quinn continued. “Win­ ters has been ridin’ me. I reckon hethought I was a tin-horn.” He laughed. “He’s wasted a lot pfmoney findin’ out I wasn’t.”"How’ll you get it back to Dave? He won’t take it.”Quinn frowned In thought. Hedrew a clean slip of paper from his pocket and wrote on it. Finished, hehanded it to Rosy, who said: “Dick Turner staked me oncewhen I didn’t have a dim:. It’s taken twenty-five years to pay itback. Here it is. I can’t give myname, because I’m hiding, but themunny's clean. Good luck.a friend.” Quinn took the paper, slipped itin the envelope with the money and then addressed the envelope to Mrs.Ted Winters."They can’t question that,” Quinnsaid.Rosy nodded. “When did Winterslose it?” “Last night, early. He came in late in the afternoon and wouldn'tplay with the house men. I’mdealin* faro, but when things are slack I can sit in on a poker game.He waited for me.”“Early last night, you say? Whattime did he leave?”“Eight-thirty or so."“Uh-huh. Why?” Quinn looked at him.‘■“Nothin'.” Quinn had to be back at the farotable at seven-thirty. so Rosy left him and walked up the street to thehotel which was three doors pastthq Mile High. He engaged a room, went upstairs and washed. Winterskept forcing himself into his mind.If Winters could lose a thousamPatpoker, where was he getting the “Two whiskies." he said to thebartender without turning his head.Then to Rosy: “How’s things. Red?” "Good." Rosy saw the customerswatching them. “Don't you likecompany or don't they like you?” heasked. Laredo turned and faced the room,hoisting his elbows on the bar. "I got throwed out of this stinkin’ pothole five years ago.” he an­nounced loudly. “I git drunk once aweek here hopin’ somebody'll try itagain.” Rosy decided it was useless totry and talk with him. The littleforeman was well on his way to being drunk now. Out of courtesyRosy bought a round, examining theroom behind him in the bar mirror. As he was watching, he saw theswinging door open in and the same man Rosy had seen watching him inthe Free Throw, the restaurant, and the hotel came in. He leaned over to Laredo. "Knowthat jasper that just came in?" Laredo turned, and with difficultysingled out the man. Then he turned and grinned. “Sure I know him,” hesaid loudly. "He’s an understrapper for a coyote named Sayres." “Easy,” Rosy warned in a lowvoice. “Some of these hard-caseshave got ears." The talk at the bar dribbled off into silence, and the customersstared at the two. "Wally Sayres, this jasper’s boss—" Laredo began loudly.*Lefs go over to the Free Throw," Rosy said easily. "Jerry Boardman made WallySayres a present of fifty head aofThree B steers last year,” Laredo contirftied, his voice booming throughthe r0om. “They call it makin* a present in this country when youturn your back.” Rosy half turned. He saw th«stocky man come walking slowly to­ ward the bar. The man stoppedsome ten feet from the bar, feet planted, solidly. “What was you sayin’ aboutSayres?" he asked. Laredo spat precisely. “What was I sayin’ about Sayres? Why, nothin'much, 'cept he's the forkedest jasperwest, east, north, south or in. themiddle of the Rio Grande/^/’ Rosy swiftly calculated tKe lights. His gaze swiveled bhek to the manstanding before them. "And that ain’t all.” Laredo con­tinued, his elbows coming slowly from, the bar. “He feeds and runsthe damnedest pack of buzzards thatever forked a bronc.” . The man was leaning forward alittle, and Rosy could see his fea­tures bloated with anger. Continued Next Issue P&G SOAP BABBITTS, DIAMOND or CLASSIC CLEANSER Bar KEENS D.S.F.

OBITUARY GEORGE BEATTY A former widely-known and highly esteemed resident of Ingersoll, pass­ ed away in Woodstock on Thursday morning last, in the person of George Beatty, following an illness of some 18 months. The late Mr. Beatty who was in his 69th yeer,\was bom in Ashtabula, Ohio but; had resided in Canada for the past ^8'years, 20 years of which had been spent in Ingersoll, where his kind and jovial manner had won for him a large circle of friends who learned of his passing with sin­ cere regret. Two years ago Mr. and Mrs. Beatty moved to Woodstock to make their home. Left to mourn his passing is his widow, to w’hom the sympathy of many friends is extended in her sad bereavement. The fqneral was held from his late residence,. 604 Peel street, Wood- Steck, to the Blythe Ontario ceme­ tery, on Saturday afternoon, with service at the house at two o’clock.

A reporter was trying to interveiw’ Viscount Northcliffe. “No, my friend,” said the propri­ etor of more than fifty newspapers and magazines in England. “I’m too much in the business, you know, to stand for newspaper interviews. I’m like the little boy at the Sunday School treat who, when the squire’s wife came .round to him with straw­ berry jam, promptly said, ‘No, thank you. I works at the place where they make it’.” The teacher was1 trying to give her pupils an illustration of the meaning of the word, “perseverance.” . “What is it”, she asked, ‘that car­ ries a man along rough roads and smboth roads, up hills and down, through jungles and swamps and raging torrents ” There was a silence, and then Johnny, whose father was a motor dealer, spoke up: “Please, m'.ss.” he said, “there ain’t no such car. Common Salt Prevents Heat Exhaustion The severe muscle cramps occurr­ ing among workers exposed to un­ usually high temperatures, are com­ mon among steel workers, miners, foundry men and ship stokers. They are sometimes called “heat cramps,” or “miner’s cramps.” While the ex­ istence of these muscular pains had long been known to occur it was left for J. S. Haldane, the eminent Eng­ lish physiologist, to suggest that this condition was caused by the loss of salt in the process of sweating. An­ other Englishman, K. N. Moss, had previously pointed out that sailors voluntarily ate more salty food dur­ ing extreme hot weather. Most people are aware of the sjvnptoms of heat exhaustion. They are general depression, headache, dizziness, nausea, diarrhoea and stomach distress. In the severer forms muscle cramps occur as well. As a result of Haldane’s suggestion a group of mine workers was in­ duced to try the salty water. The results were magical. There were no further attacks of cramps and milch less complaint of fatigue' than form­ erly. A similar experiment made in Russia showed that .when, salt was administered to persons working in high temperature they were less subject to fatigue and heat ex­ haustion. The objection to this form of treat­ ment is the salty taste. This has been overcome by the use of 5- grain salt tablets to which, as further improvement, 5-grains < dextrose are added. In the Journal of Industrial Hy­ giene for December, 1931, are given some interesting data on the benefits of salt taken in tablet form by work­ ers in a large steel plant. There were some 3500 men at worl/in tho plant. In the summer of 1927, heat cramps wefre responsible for the loss of 48 working days among this group. The use of salt was begun in the following year with the result that only nine days were lost. In 1929, the loss was but 4 days and in 1930 none. The means of prevention of the ill effects of heat exhaustion are simple. Ordinarily the use of 5 grains of salt with each drink of water is ample. Try it! Are Ant* a Nuisance? Here Are Remedies The tiny active insects known as ants are especially numerous in the summertime and are frequently un­ welcome intruders in homes and gardens. There are many species of them, all are social in their habits, and live together in colonies. The majority of the ants in a colony and the ones most commonly seen are wingless undeveloped female work­ ers, which are incapable of repro­ ducing their kind. A common and troublesome house­ hold species is the tiny reddish-yel­ low Pharaoh’s ant, which originated in the tropics but is now widespread in Canada. The common large black carpenter ant is normally an outdoor species nesting principally in decay­ ing woojl, but frequently Occurs in dwellings, particularly frame houses and summer cottages, and may cause damage to woodwork. A third com­ mon species is the small yellowish- brown lawn ant which nests in lawns and gardens and often enters houses in search of food. According to the Division of Ento­ mology, Science Service, Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, the most satisfactory material for destroying ants is sodium fluoride, sold by druggists in the form of a fine white powder. This powder should be scat­ tered on blown with an insecticide puffer or dust-gun in places where the ants occur, and should not be removed until the insects have dis­ appeared. Sodium fluoride is a pois­ on and should not be exposed in places where children or pets may have access to it. Another method, recommended as particularly effect­ ive against Pharoah’s ants, consists of using a polsoned-bait trap. This is made by punching several holes in the sides of a small tin can with a tight lid, and placing in it a small piece of sponge and a small quan­ tity of syrup prepared by mixing 4 ounces of sugar and 1-4 ounce of honey in ope-half pint of hot water, and adding 1-2 gram of sodium ar­ senite. The worker ants are greatly attracted to the bait and take it to their nests to feed the larvae and queen. Thus the whole colony is des­ troyed. The number of tins to use depends on the size of the premises and the extent of the infestation. In preparing and using this bait it should be borne in mind that sodium arsenite is very .poisonous to humans. Ants may be discouraged from en­ tering houses by keeping shelves, tables an# floors as free as possible from food fragments, and by storing foodstuffs in ant-proof containers.

Follow the ^afe wayr sea ' C A R L Y L E TR EEI1C CC K LONDON, ONTARIO In addition, openings in floors and walls through which ants may enter should be carefully plugged. When it is possible to find the nests in the ground outside, the ant colonies may be destroyed by puncturing holes in .the surface and pouring in a small quantity of carbon bisul­ phide. Heavy gas is given off by this liquid and its effect may be in­ creased by covering the nest with an old coat or sacking. Care should be taken not to expose carbon bisul­ phide near fire as It is very inflam­ mable. “Authors vary greatly in the meth­ ods they employ to commit their ideas to paper,” observed a maa in the train. “Yea," replied an elderly gentle­ man, "some of them seem to be us­ ing a tripe-wiiter.” SHINGLES 5 X Prerrfium Quality Edge Grain B.
