children in the schools.
The Carnival will be held as for
merly in Thayer’s Arena, Charles
street east, and will continue to-in<fr-
■row and Saturday nights. The arento
has taken on a gala appearance with
gaily decorated booths and special
lighting effects. The floor has been
covered with sawdust and shavings
and it is being heated with gas
furnaces for the comfort of the
many thousands who will attend the
affair.
A number of new games have
been added this year, but there will
be the old familiar and very popular
Bingo and Ducky-Wucky. About
twenty booths in all are to . be in
operation and there will be plenty
of entertainment for everyone. Loud
.’peakers are being installed so that
addresses and announcements may
be heard clearly by everyone in the
large arena.
The main door prize for tq-night,
October 20th, is a bicycle, for Friday,
October 21st, an electric washing
machine, and on Saturday night, Oct
ober 22nd, an electric refrigerator.
Business firms and individuals
have been most generous this year
in making donations to the Kiwanis
Club to help along their worthy
work. There are lovely other prizes
for each night numbering upwards
of one hundred in addition to the
major door prize. These are now
on display in the Hydro Shop Win-,
dow. Everything to be merchandised
at the Carnival has been purchased
through local stores and all that re
mains to make this year’s show the
most successful of any yet held by
the Iryersoll Kiwanis Club, is the at
tendance of the general public and
their generous patronage of the var
ious games and booths.
The Ingersoll Kiwanis Club has
done a great deal of work since it was,
first organized and this has not only
been confined to the town of Inger
soll but includes the surrounding
district for several miles radius.
The Club has spent $20,500.00 for
child welfare including treatments
to crippled^children and hospitaliza
tion, nearly $5,000 for maintenance
and conducting summer camps for
underprivileged boys and girls;
$3,500.00 for playground equipment
and supervision of activities in co
operation with the Ingersoll Com
munity “Y.” Donations of over $4,-
200.00 have also been made to char
itable institutions, sick children's hos
pitals, etc. This is only a brief syn
opsis of the work of the club, which
has been a real factor in promotion

WESTMINSTER CHURCH
THAMESFORD, DEDICATED
Impressive Ceremony Conduct
ed Sunday—Large Congre
gations Present.
Thametford—A most impressive
dedication service was held on Sun
day, October 16th, at the new West
minster United Church, Thamesford,
.with Principal Richard Davidson of
Emanuel College, Toronto, carrying
cut the dedicatory act. Entering the
main door of the church and proceed
ing up the centre aisle, Dr. Davidson
took his place at the centre of the
chancel while the congregation sang
the familiar one hundred and twen
ty-second Psalm. The keys of thechurch were placed in the principal’s
hands by the chairman of the Trus
tee Board of the Church, Mr. Arnold
Hogg, and were placed upon the
Table of Communion. Words of
dedication on part of minister and
people followed, and prayer beseech
ing God to consecrate the church to
its holy use. “Here,” said the
speaker, “will prayer be made, the
mighty gospel preached, baptism ad
ministered. Here will strengthening
hands be laid upon youth as they
dedicate their lives to the kingdom.
Here will vows of faithfulness be
tween man and woman in marriage
as they plight their troth, be made.
Here will the dead be brought before
burial; and here also the greatest
sacrament and rite of the church
celebrated in the partaking of the
symbols of our Lord’s blood shed and
His body broken for Love's sake.”
Taking for his text at the morn
ing service: "Ye are the body of
Christ and members in particular,”
Dr. Davidson said in his sixty years
of attending church he had heard
cnly two sermons on “The Church”,
•Ithough the church was among the
doctrines most surely believed in.
The speaker spoke of-the society of
Jesus as being.- different from all
other man-wdde societies. The wor
ship of the church was its chief
priestly act. Redemption is its main
activity. We know something of God
in nature. But we can see still more
of the Eternal Honour of God in
human nature, in the faithfulness of
friendship, in the honorings of a
promise and obligation, in the love
of a mother toward a sick child. In
the Word made flesh we see the
yearning of the heart of God and the
Eternal Honobr in ail its doinpiete-ness.
The theme of the evening discourse
was “The Cross,” which ,was likened
to a mirror in which we sec the cruel
elements in human nature, see the
heart of GodJ and see ourselves. The
different groups around the Cross
are very much like ourselves. There
we see just how earnest and sincere
God is in making us the men and
women he wants us to be. We realise
the costHnesa of redemption, and
the priye that'tnu t be paid.
An 4verflox. congregation greeted
the principal inTne morning. Greet
ings will be brought on October 23rd
from the President of London Con
ference and the chairman of Oxford
Presbytery,
Assisting in the services were the
pastor, Rev. Watson Langdon and
Rev. Mr. Semple, rector of St.
John’s Anglican Church in the vil-
lege. Special music was rendered by
the choir assisted by Mr. Sidney
Bagnall, baritone soloist, Ingersoll,
and Mr. Everett Howlett, tenbr so
loist of Delaware. The morning
anthem was “Let -/Mount Zion Re
joice,” and “King, All Glorious,” in
the evening.

ST. PAUL’S Y. P. S.
ADDRESSED BY
F. E. JOHNSTON
F. E. Johnston was guest speaker
at the regular meeting of the Young
People’s Society of St. Paul’s Pres
byterian Church, held in the church
parlors, Monday night, under the
direction of the current events com
mittee. He was introduced by Cath
erine Kidd, and chose as his topic,
“A Penny For Your Thoughts” He
said that what we see, hear -and feel
leaves an imprint on our mm^ls and
in talking with elderly people we so
often found that current happenings
are not as deeply imprinted on their
minds as is some girlhood or boy
hood happening. We talk and read,
the speaker said, and in reading the
daily papers we talk of what some
one else has prepared ’ for us and
form our own ideas and thoughts.
Here we are more or less a bunch of
"Charlie McCarthy’s.” We should do
cur own thinking, the speaker said,
for we are heading for a cross-road
and therefore our thinking should
be deep and serious today.
Down through the years we have
had the war of labor and capital
which is more or less Communism.
Nazism and Fascism are clashes be
tween races and religions. We should
take for a standard a thought that
is four-square—mental, social, phy
sical and moral, the speaker said.
We must make a decision—look first
to God and then to country and these
decisions should be used as guide
I>osts. He closed his splendid talk
with an appropriate quotation.
A vote of thanks was extended to
the speaker by* Robert Paterson and
Allister Murray. Light refreshments
were served by the social committee
and a short social period enjoyed,
after which, the meeting was’con
cluded with the singing of the Na
tional Anthem and the benediction
by Dr. H. H. Turner.
The attendance at the meeting
was exceptionally good. The presi
dent, Allister Murray, was in charge
of the opening and business meeting
and Doris Simpson presided at the
piano for the hymn numbers. George
Crown gave the scripture lesson.
During the business part of the
meeting plans were made in connect
ion with the church service which
will be conducted next Sunday even
ing by the young people with Donald
Wade as the guest speaker.
Trinity W. M. S. Heid
Thank-Offering Meeting

ing of the W. M. S..of Trinity United

tional period, Mrs. Gall introduced

Mrs. A. J. McKinney of Woodstock,
who gave a very fine talk in which
she outlined the work of the Wom
en’s Missionary Societies in the Uni
ted Church.
Special Speaker

Page 2 THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, OCT. 20, 1938THE IN G E R S O L L T R I B U N EW. R. VEALE, PublisherPHONES:—Tribune Office, 18 - Residence, 442A.THURSDAY, OCTOBER 20th, 1938The Consumer’s Dollar
A question which is often asked but seldom satis
factorily answered is: “Who gets the money we pay
for food?” The farmer complains that he doesn t
get enough of the consumer’s dollar. The retail grocery
and meat market complain that they don’t make a
fair profit on the fraction left in their hands after
they have paid for the goods they sell.
The answer seems to be, according to the most re
cent study of the facts, that most of the consumer’s
dollar goes to the middlemen who move food products
from the farm to the retail store. That includes, of
course, the railroads or trucks which haul the farmer’s
produce over each stage of its journey, the cost of
warehousing and of processing at various stages, nnd
of all other business transactions required to bring
foodstuffs to the place where the consumer finally
gets them. This middlemen’s spread ranges from 52
cents for meats and 53 for dairy products to as high
as 76 for bread and cereal products and 80 cents for
canned goods. That the buyer of canned goods must
pay five dollars foe every dollar that the farmer gets
seems exorbitant.
The big department store, the mail-order house,
the chain-store company, and more recently the co
operatives, all represent efforts to avoid the high
costs of our distribution system to cut out, in part
at least, the middleman. With each new type some
of the less efficient of the older ones have been driven
out of business. The earlier types have, neverthe
less, persisted alongside the pew.
Retailing and the distribution of goods are so
highly competitive that the answer can only be that
our complicated system does, after all, meet certain
needs, that people will pay to satisfy them, and that,
however large may seem the cost of getting goods
from the producer to the consumer, that cost, is
paid primarily for senices rendered and not for ex
cessive profits.
The shortest route from producer to consumer, one
whichGliminates the largest proportion of middle
men’s tolls, should be the aim of business and the
objective of all legislation affecting prices. The in
terest of the consumer is, or should be, paramount to
all other interests.
Hunting In Dereham TownshipMore hunters in Ingersoll and district are a bitleary about carrying a gun since a party of prominent Ingersoll business men went looking for mushrooms in Dereham Township a few weeks ago andtook a rifle along with them, with the result theywere fined in local magistrate’s court last week |50and cost.For the benefit of our readers we would point out
that Dereham, South Dorchester and Bayham Town

The hunting regulations are set up by the Depart
ment of Game and Fisheries for Ontario and The, Tri
bune is authentively informed that the regulations
for shooting in this Regulation Shooting Preserve will .
be strictly enforced.
October, The Good Month
The poets have ever sung the praises of stormy
March, “With ugly looks and threats;” and fickle
April, "when ever tear is answered by a blossom;"
and merry May,” "when those who love must wed;”
and chill December, “bleak and dread;" but do not
all ordinary humans agree that colorful October wcie
a better object for their art and eulogies.
"What is so rare as a day in June” unless it be an
afternoon in October when the departing sun lends
a tint and a mystic charm to all the purple and
gold, yellow and brown and green of the trees, the
hills and the fields? There is a freshness and a life
giving vigor about the air of October unknown to her
sister months. October is a month of out-of-doors
when nature exerts her utmost magnetism and all
humanity strains at the leash of confining civilization:
The melancholia that has been attributed to October
is but reflection and pensiveness. October days invite
sober thought and speculation on the beautiful nature
and the sheer jtfy of living. October is the rugged
manhood of the year in all its glorious strength; it is
symbolic of tasks begun and completed; it is a syn
onym for achievement.
The World of Tomorrow
A survey'd the America of the future has been
made by the National Resources Committee in Wash
ington, D.C., on the basis of the Census Office re
ports of population statistics. It is probably as accur
ate as any fortcast ever is, which is no guarantee
that its conclusions are correct. But it is always of
interest to try to peer into the future.
The facts disclosed by the Committee seem to in-(dicate that the United'States is rapidly approaching
the ultimate peak of its population. In another ten or
twelve years, say around 1950, births and deaths will
balance each other, and the population will be stab
ilized at about 145 millions. More of them will be
elderly, fewer young people.
Right now 'the high schools and colleges of the
nation are overcrowded, j The children born of mar
riages right after the war are filling them. There
were more babies born in America in 1921 than in
any year before or .since. So for a dozen years
from now on there will be more marriages, more new
homes needed, more babies born, as these young folk,
set up their own families.
But the birth-rate is declining, and from 1950 ofu_
the annual increase in population will grow smallwz
and smaller. At tfog same time, the average life of
Americans is beiWning longer and longer. So the
time seems to be approaching when there will be twice
as many elderly people as there are now and a third
or a half fewer young people.
Such changes will have wide economic effects.
Businesses which cater to the young will decline.
Businesses which supply commoditities to older people
will grow. There will be less demand for milk and
for children’s clothing, more for things which provide
comfort for the middle-aged.
That is what the future looks like now. Nobody
can gue.ss what may happen to change the picture.
But it is something interesting to think about.
The Public Payroll
There are many thousands of persons regularly
employed in full-time public service in Canada whose
salaries are paid by the taxpayers. These public
employees include persons who work at an immense
variety of occupations. Policemen, physicians, school
teachers, letter-qprriers, street-cleaners, engineers
day-laborers, firemen and hundreds of other special
ized workers are necessary to maintain public order
and ojterate the necessary public services in a modern
civilized nation. Nobody would complain of the cost
of such services if everybody felt that they were al
ways well and faithfully performed.
That is not always the case. Too many persons ate
on the puolic payrolls because they are useful to
political leaders.
It will taMe time, but eventually the fact that a man
or woman is employed in public service will be suffic
ient proof that he or she is highly-trained and pecul
iarly competent for the work. To be a Civil servant
should be a badge of honor, calling for general pub
lic respect, as it is today in England and some other
European countries, where patronage is not a func
tion of politics.
TODAY and* TOMORROWby Frank Barker StockbridgeDISTRIBUTION . . middlemen.I We have developed methods ofproduction which enable us to turnout more, better and cheaper useful
goods than can be produced any
where else in the world. At the
same time, the productive industries
pay higher wages^than the woikers
of many other nations get not only
in dollars but in the purchasing pow
er of their wages.
We haven’t got so far in perfect
ing our national system of the dis
tribution of the products of our soil
and factories. There is still too
much lost motion in getting goods
from producer to consumer. Too .
many middlemen take tolls, all along
the route, so that the consumer’s
dollar does not buy as much as it
could buy if ways were found to
eliminate unnecessary middlemen
and reduce the costs of distribution.
What makes the distribution prob
lem particularly difficult in Canada
and the United States, is the great
size of the country and the long dis-
ances over which goods have to be
transported. But long steps have
been taken toward solving the prob
lems of distribution, and if the
processes of business are not inter
fered with by politics, the time will
come when the consumer’s dollar
will not pay for unnecessary distri
bution costs.
• • •
F O O D ......................................chain*
The largest item in the average
citizen’s cost of living is what he—
or his wife—has to spend for food.
It is precisely in this item that the
.greatest reductions in the cost of
distribution have been effected. One
cf the things every woman knows is
that she can fill her market basket
more economically, in most commun
ities, at the chain store or the super
market than anywhere else.
That is partly because those institu
tions buy their goodsjjirect from the
producers without paying "middle
men's tolls. It is also partly because
by doing a huge volume of business
(hey can afford to take a smaller
profit on each sale.
The head of the largest chain of
grocery stores has recently pointed
out that the net profit earned by his
company last year was one cent on
each dollar of sales. The individual
storekeeper has to make a lot more
than one per cent on his sales to
earn a living.
making a study of the whole taxsystem aa it affects the wage worker, have issued a report of its findings, in which it points to the dis-position of most proposers of tax reform to ignore the ability of theultimate consumer to pay additionalburdens, from present or probablefuture earnings. “There is a unanimous willingness,'* says the Feder
ation report, "to solve all tax prob
lems by taxing some one else.”
Looking at the chain stores from
Labor's viewpoint, it is pointed out
that • “Unquestionably the group-
store system has improved methods
of merchandising and by its mere ex
istence has maintained competition
which has held cost-of-living essen
tials to a minimum.” ,
I heartily agree with organized
Labor's opposition to punitive and
discriminatory taxes designed to put
chain stores out of business. While
I am not a wage-worker and belong
to no union, I am a consumer, and
I want to get all I can for my mar
keting dollar, as everybody else
does,• • •
FARMERS ... . market*
I have found many farmers, par
ticularly those who specialize in
fresh vegetables and fruits, which
have to be disposed of quickly if at
all, who tell me that their most re
liable market is the chain stores.
One of the largest vegetable gtow-
ers I know operates several thous
and acres within a few miles of my
Pennsylvania home. Like all the
other farmers I have talked with, he
is opposed to any legislation which
would put the chain stores out of
business, or impair their ability to
buy his products directly from his
farm, for cash.
Of course, I can’t speak for all
the farmers of the nation, but if the
rest of them feel as the hundred or
so in different parts of the country
to whom I have talked feel, I should
think that if they got together and
let legislations know that they re
gard the chain stores as the farmer’s
friend, they could help a lot to keep
the chains from being taxed out of
existence.
For precisely that is what is being
seriously urged.

Rural Fairs Justified
With record attendance reported at many of the
rural fall fairs of the district there is likely to be less
talk of discontinuing them. ' It is true that in the few
instances where weather conditions were unfavorable
attendance was. low, but it has been a wonderful
autumn and most of the fairs have prospered accord
ingly.
Perhaps the improved means of transportation may
eventually eliminate some of the smaller fairs and
one or two fairs in each county may take the place of
the more numerous ones which are now carrying on.
But this season has shown that the rural fair has a
definite place and under favorable conditions will at
tract large crowds, s
jMuchdepends on the ingenuity of the directors of
the .smaller faintjr*' Their problems’although differ
ent in scale than those of the larger exhibitions, are
basically si miliar. They must provide a worthwhile
show if they expect people to attend. They must keep
in touch with public interest and endeavor to provide
features with a./fip^cial appeal in their own district.
Of course one of the prime attractions of the rural
fair is; the opportunity .to meet old friends and renew
old acquaintances. Many a city-dweller finds some
excuse for talking' a day off to go to a-country fair,
preferably in the district where he formerly lived.
The sight of the sleek, weH-cared-for livestock, the
profuse products of the soi) and .the appetizing dis
plays of home-cooking and household arts satisfies
some instinct which city life leaves hungry. Even
more attractive are the faces of the holiday-makers
which, though they may be marked by the constant
battle with the elements, are free from the stigmata
inflicted by the drive of the city.
T HE DO CTO R
Tells The Story
by W. E. AUGHINBAUQH, M.D.
READY SURGERY
The sailormen wHt^went down to the sea in tall
masted graceful ships and put a girdle around the
world, were fortunate indeed to have an ally in the
shape of Providence, sitting aloft to keep watch on
poor Jack, and prevent him from death, danger and
disease. Fifty or more years ago, when sailing vessels
were carrying the commerce of the world, their voy
ages, always dependent upon wind and weather, might,
either be long or short, and those of the crew who
met with accidents or became ill, were treated by the
captain. Surgeons were to be found only on men-
of-war and in the larger sailing ships carrying_pass-
engers. J
On cargo carriers the sailors fortunately were not
weaklings and were accustomed to hard knocks. It
is amazing to read the logs of these wind jammers and
ascertain just how the captains or mates administered
treatment to those who fell ill or were hurt. It has
been my privilege to read the log of the American
barkentime Cromwell, on a voyage from New York
to Rio de Janiero, Brazil. One of the hands before
the mast slipped on* the deck during a storm and rup
tured himself. The captain was summoned and
after looking at the sailor ordered him brought into
his cabin. This done he examined the patient and
made the proper diagnosis. Let me now quote .from
the log, showing exactly the treatment used. “I sent
for the first mate, a man six feet four inches high,
and hailing from Portland, Maine. We both tried
to push the swelling into the man’s abdomen but
could not do so. The mate then grabbed th# man by
his ankles arid draped him down over his back like
a sack of meal and shook him like a terrier does a rat.
The man yells 'I’m al] right now’ and he is put down
on the deck and the swelling is gone. I then took two
skeins of woolen yarn and tied them together making
a big knot in the' center. This knot I placed over the
place' where the swelling was and wrapped the rest
of the yarn very tight about the man's body. It
acted as a stopper and the next day the man went to
work as usual, but he kept that bandage on until we
returned to New York.” Is it any wonder that sailors
in those days needed a special Providence to guard
them? . i
More people than ever before' are
waking up to the fact that {axes
come out of everybody’s pocket,
whether he pays them directly or
not. There is a growing resentment
against practice of imposing taxes
for the benefit of a particular group
or class of people, especially when
the direct effect of such taxes is to
' increase the cost of things which
every citizen has to buy.
I hAve done considerable indepen
dent investigation in the matter of
taxes generally, and particularly the
taxes which various legislative bodies
have undertaken to impose on chain
stores. In every instance which I
have examined I have found a well-
organized lobby representing some
.group of wholesalers working behind
the scenes to put pressure on legis
lators. Wholesalers want to put the
chains out of business, because the
chains, buying direct from producers,
cut out the middlemen’s profits
which the wholesalers have been
taking.
Not all wholesalers are behind
the movement to kill chain stores
by punitive taxation. The smart
cnes are organizing independent
stores into voluntary chains for
which they act as purchasing agents.
And the sfriart independent retailers
are joining these voluntary chains,
LABOR ................................burden*
Organized Labor is concerned
with the effect of taxes upon the
cost of living. Federations of Labor,
Old-timers tell us that the largest,
grain crops on record in these parts
is being harvested this year. It is
regrettable that those who have pro
duced it will not benefit as fully as.
might have been expected, because of
that relentless pursuer—taxation—»
Ohly when taxes" and assessment are
more reasonaly regulated will thrift
and industry cease to be penalized.
But at least the bountiful harvest
assures food for all. And that "all”
includes creatures that we consider
undeserving—berth rats and mice.
With the granaries full they will
thrive.
It seems peculiar that in the oldest
settlements rats should be most
numerous. They are gaining on us,
and we allow it. Rats cost the people
of North America more than a mil
lion dollars every day of the year.
They are responsible for fires, for
destroying and contaminating food,
lor destruction of property and the
spread of disease. /
Dr. Victor Heiser tells in his book,
"An American Doctor’s Odyssey”, of
the poverty and suffering caused by
raV-jbomo disease; In Palestine it
was estimated that it would coat a
million dollars to rid the country of
plague by a medical and sanitary
system. But the expensive course
became unnecessary when it was
found that by clearing out the rat-
infested areas the plague declined to
a minimum.
The apathy of some people makes
it costly for others. Ocean-going ves
sels are a favorite haunt of rats, for
the wander-lust is strong in them.
First-class owners have their ships
rat-proofed. But the careless ones
do not, so that the menace always
exists, at great expense, for it used
to cost fifty thousand dollars a year
to keep the "Mauretania” rat proof.
A nice sum which of course added to
ocean rates.
Extermination is not a super-hu
man task, although it might call for
qualities of the super-man. Less
offensive animals than rats have
ceased to exist because man hunted
them to extinction. The race that
can accomplish so much in the realm
of science should be equal to ridding
the world of a dangerous enemy.
A social order that will tolerate
the filth of rats, while it holds the
white collar in such high regard, is
somewhat suggestive of a whited
sepulchre. •
Ever so many mothers are faced
with the problem of determining
how much of the family income
shall be spent for food. Naturally,
many factors influence the amount
that is spent. Individual tastes, nu
trition requirements, avoidance of
waste and economical planning con
trol the food budget as definitely as
does the size of one’s pocketbook.
In years gone by it was, estimat
ed that no more than one-fourth of
the income should be spent for food.
But when the income falls below
what might be considered even X
moderate sum, the allowance for
food may be above the allotted one-
fourth because food is of first im
portance on the list of necessities.
Obviously, as the income increases,
the percentage for food decreases.
First of all, good cooking is essen
tial if good meals are to be. en
joyed. So, no matter what materials
are used, the ability of the cook has
more than a little to do with the cost
of meals.
Clever marketing often makes it
possible to provide excellent meals
at a low cost, too. Buying in quan
tity, whenever a larger amount can
be used to advantage, always is an
economy. The use of canned fruits
and vegetables in place of out-of-
season shipped fresh ones makes for
a greater variety of foods at a
moderate cost’
Consideration of the edible and
waste materials in foods is import
ant. Meats containing a large
amount of bone, although low in
price, may be more expensive as a
source of actual food than a more
costly piece of clear meat. How
ever, if the bone and trimmings are
utilized in a soup or stew, the waste
material is nil.
Cereal, both the breakfast variety
and the paste-foods, contribute
much food value .at low cost. Dried
fruits and dried vegetables are cheap
sources of energy and mineral salts.
'The root vegetables and cabbage
have a long season and are very in
expensive, They supply many valu
able nutrients for the minimum out-
actual creative ability on the part
of the home-maker. All the food
elements—protein, fat, carbohy
drates, mineral constituents and vit
amins must be served daily.
October is the month for peony
planting. Enrich the soil with old
manure, digging it in at least two
complete the menu. Serve appetizers
feet deep and mixing well.
Meticulous gardeners have a final
clean-up before they put their gar
dens to bed for the winter. Disease
germs and pests lurk in dead stalks
and leaves that are left around so
all ruobish should be gathered up
and burned. Cut off the dead stalks
’of perennial plants as pulling or
(breaking them might harm the plant
Vrowns.„ • • •
New and inexpensive ways to meet
the meat course are hard to find.
The so-called "cheaper cuts” usually
have mostly bone and fat and little
lean meat. While they make delic
ious stews and pot roasts with brown
gravy that goes right to the spot, we
hesitate to resort to them for com
pany fare. The next time you have
guests for dinner serve Spanish steak
instead of an expensive roast. It’s
different and most delicious. Twice
baked potatoes, lima beans in cream,
romaine salad and peach mousse
in the living room if ~you want to
emit a first course.
Spaniah Steak
Have a sirloin steak cut 2’4 in
ches thick. Sear quickly in a hot fry
ing pan. Season with salt and pep
per and rub generously with butter.
Put in a shallow baking pan and slip
into a moderately hot oven (400
degrees F.). Cook thirty minutes
and cover with a thick layer of sliced
onions. Season onions with salt and
pepper and dot with bits of butter.
Cook forty-five minutes and cover
with a layer of sliced tomatoes. Sea
son lightly with salt and pepper "and
cook until meat is very tender. It
will take about half an hour to finish
cooking. Then sprinkle lavishly with
grated cheese and leave in the oven
just long enough to melt cheese.
Serve with gravy made from the
juices in the pan.

more benefit from the lessons.
One of the class members keeps
the attendance. At the end of the
course, those who attend seventy-five
per cent of the lessons receive a
small acknowledgment card signed
by Lord Tweedsmuir, Honorary Pre
sident of the Canadian Red Cross
Society.
Every year, the Red Cross in On
tario has organized hundreds of
these classes. Nearly six thousand of
our girls and ycung women have
taken the course. They learn how to
act in case of an emergency to give
capable assistance when an accident
occurs, but what is even more im-
pcrtnt.They learn how to take better
care of their own health in every
day life, to-notice unusual symptoms,
and report to the doctor before some
incurable disease has developed, and
to follow his instructions more in
telligently after his call. They
have become more public health
minded.
The Red Cross thanks the doctors,
dentists, nurses and dietitians with
out whose voluntary assistance we
could not carry cn.
Classes will be started week of
October 24th.

Rev. Geoffrey Guiton
At St. James’ Church
Rev. Geoffrey Guiton, missionary
on furlough from India, was the
guest speaker in St. James’ Anglican
Church on Sunday evening. Rev.
H. E. Merifield was in charge of the
service and he was assisted by Rev.
G. G. Stcne of Norwich. During the
effertory, Mrs. Harold Wilson sang
“The Plains of Peace," (Barnard.)
Mrs. Edward Gilling presided at the
organ.
The speaker gave a splendid talk
on conditions existing in portions of
India today which even after years
of mission work and while under
British rule are most deplorable, and
for which mere intensive mission
work is urgently needed. His
thoughts were based on the story of
the lavish use of the precious oint
ment as found in Mark 14-4 and he
pointed out to his hearers that God’s
scale of values is not always the
same as man’s outlook on the same.

TOWN BELL TO BE PUT
IN WORKING ORDER
Municipal Dump and Question
of Garbage Collection Dis
cussed At Length. CouncilTo Act As Court of Revision.
The regular meeting of the Town
Council was held on Monday even
ing in the council chamber. Mayor
A. H. Edmonds occupied the chair,
and a^ljpcmbers were in attendance.
There were no communications on
hand but a number of accounts were
read and a petition received from 56
residents of the town objecting to
the opening of a Municipal Dump on
Mutual Street.
Committee reports mainly rec
ommended the payment of accounts.
A by-law was introduced on motion
of Councillors J. G. Murray and Ar
chie Clark appointing the ■ mayor
and members of the council as mem
bers of the court of revision in and
for the town of Ingersoll for the
year 1938. It was decided to hold
the meeting of the Court of Revis
ion on Thursday evening, October
27th, in the council chamber at 7.30
o’clock.
A number of accounts were passed
for payment on motion of members
of the committees which they con
cerned.
Councillor George Preston moved;
seconded by Councillor Stanley J.
Smith, that “The town bell be repair
ed and put in shape at a cost of 50c
per hour for 3 men and the com
mittee have the power‘to- purchase
the necessary* parts.” There was
considerable discussion on this reso
lution and it was explained that the
probable cost to repair the bell
v.ould be between $50,00 and $60.00
while it would cost about $150.00 to
take it down. The resolution finally
carried.
It was moved by Councillor Clark
and seconded by Councillor Murray
that the town dump remain in its
present location. There was some ob
jection to this resolution and it was
finally changed to read “That a Mun
icipal dump be not opened on Mutual
street.” After quite a lengthy dis
cussion the motion carried with
Councillor Smith and Weir register
ing objections. It was then moved
by Councillor Smith, seconded by
Councillor Preston that an express
ion of opinion be obtained by the
majority vote of the ratepayers at
the next Municipal Election as to the
advisability of having a garbage col
lection system Inaugurated in the
town and a means of disposing of
the garbage there from.-” This reso
lution received the unanimous sup
port of the entire council.
The matter of street lights was in
troduced again and members dis
cussed this from various angles, and
it was finally agreed to have the
Fire, Water and Light Committee
meet with the Public Utilities Com
mission and discuss the situation.
Councillor dark gave an explanation
of the reason for only applying the
special surfacing material to Noxon
street, stating that it was not possible
at the present time to get more of
the material to complete the job on
Wellington street from the bridge to
Noxon street.
A man home on leave from a port
of Africa generally held to be un
healthy was recounting his exper
iences.
■ "There’s nothing the matter with
the country," he said- “All it re
quires is,a better type of settler and
a decent water supply."
. “If you come to think of it," re
marked one of his listeners, “those
are the only drawbacks to Hades."*

Final Installment
Crowell laughed again, that soft,
insane laugh that struck chills toRosy's spine. Crowell turned to
Pearson, who had not moved in thelast minute. The banker’s face was
gray with fear.“Let's get out, Crowell." Pearsonsaid.“You squealing swine," Crowell
said tunelessly, a kind of secret maddelight in his voice. "I would have
died for you and you turn me in.”Slowly his gun swiveled to Pearson,but his cye$ were on Rosy and the
sheriff. Pearson backed away againstthe wall, uttering small, unearthlycries of terror Crowell slid his eyesto the gun and shot twice aj Pearson. The banker's scream was cut
short and he folded up like a tiredchild. Crowell's gun was trainedagain on Rosy and the sheriff, who
did not dare move.“A good job, wasn’t it?" Crowell
asked. Mary moaned a little in thecorner.Suddenly. Crowell laughed a high,
frenzied laugh of a maniac, turnedthe gun to his chest and pulled the
trigger. The impact of his own shotbumped him against the, wall andhe sagged to the floor."Prob'ly the first good thing heever done.” Laredo said softly.
Rosy fell in beside Mary as theyleft the doctor's. Laredo and Quinnwere ahead of them. The rest had
stayed behind a moment.“Let's walk slow." NJ ary said.
"I reckon I feel that way too,”Rosy answered. “It come a little
too fast.”The silence was long.Q "Rosy, do you mind telling me
Things?" Mary asked presently.“Anything you want to know,"Rosy said gently.
“Did you know that Ted wasmixed up in this when you came to
the house this morning?”"I was pretty sure.""And you didn’t tell me. Why?”
"I—I couldn’t,” Rosy said huskily.“He was your husband.”
"What would you have done ifthis—if Ted had been along with
Pearson and Crowell tonight?”“I wouldn't have been there,"Rosy answered promptly. He
amended this. "Yes. I would too.
it the way I hope you will—" He
bogged down, then began againvaliantly: “When this is all oyer
and you know your own mind, I mgoin’ to—I hope—”"I think I know what it is, Rosy,
Mary answered simply She placeda hand on his arm. "I think I know
what I’ll answer."Rosy waited for her to go on. Sheonly smiled and squeezed his arm a
little. “And I think it will be whatyou hope it is.”She turned and walked across the
lobby and up the stairs, her backstraight, erect.Dave was the last to leave the
doctor’s."I’m going to sleep the clock
around,” he muftered as he descended the steps.r
"Dave.” It came from the openeddoor and he stopped. It was Dorsey.She came close to him."I couldn’t let you go without telling you that I’m sorry I said what
I did this afternoon,” she said, hervoice low and sincere.“That’s all right.” Dave said.
"No, it isn’t." Dorsey cried. “Itwas all wrong! I was wrong! I
never understood how right youwere until I heard and saw all thistonight."
But 1 weyzidu't have liked it.”
"It was pretty bloody.”"But if a man doesn't fight for
what he has and loves, people willtake them away from him."
“I reckon that’s righ^”"And I was angry when you tookto your guns to stop it," Dorsey
said humbly."You were half right at that."Dave said. "I took to my guns once
too often—a long time ago. I lostenough that time to make me think
twice about goin’ for them again."He looked down at her an<J spokekindly. "That’s what you were tryin’
to remind me of, wasn't it?"“No.” Dorsey said simply. “I
have never thought you lost anything in jail, Dave. 1 didn’t knowyou before, but you couldn't have
been any”—she hesitated, seeking aword, and feeling a slow flush come
over her face.“Any what?" Dave said.“—any finer, more honest, brave.”
she finished.She felt Dave's hands grip her
arms, saw his dark face with itsdarker eyes looking down on her.“It's worth eight years in the pen
to hear you say that," he saidhuskily. “It—it makes a difference.”
"What difference?"“I can hold my head up now."Dave said softly. “1 can go on
thinkin’ there’s somethin’ to life besides fightin’, catin’ and slccpin’.”
“Just because I said that. Dave?”"You make it sound small," Dave
said. "It isn’t."He looked down at her fondly.“It’s like^well, like food for the
way rve*T)ccn. I guess I’ve beensick.”
“Theo you’ll grow fat and sleek,Dave," DorSey said with a littlelaugh.Djtve frowned. “I reckon I don’tknow what you mean.”
“That was honest, anyway,” Dorsey said. “It was like you."
“But I still don't see," Dave saidhumbly."If my saying I trusted you, be
lieved in you, is food for you, Dave,then you will grow fat There. Isn’tthat plain?”
'■Dave paused, suppressing a grin.“I reckon not.”
But Dorsey did not sec the grin.“I can’t make it plainer without
"Why? Was Ted any more de
serving of sympathy than theothers?”“Less." Rosy answered briefly.
Mary thought this over and askedwhy."Pearson was a lone wolf," Rosy
explained. "Out for money and hedidn’t care how he got it. Crowell
was a gambler. He’d risk his neckfor a stake. Winters? Well, he had
more to lose than the rest. He carried more with him when he fell."He turned to Mary. "Why are you
askin’ me this?”"I don’t know," Mary answeredsoberly. “It’s just—’’ She looked upat him. "Maybe you wouldn’t understand me if I told you."
"I’d try.""Well, it’s hard to put in words. Ican't remember very many men.
Dave was taken away when we wereboth young. He was a good brother,
‘but he didn’t have much use forgirls. Dad was—well, headstrong.Dave's j^^t made him bitter and
unjust. Wad was harsh, terriblyharsh, even on people he loved.Sometimes he could be unjust too.Then after I married Ted, it seemedas if the same traits were in him.
Harshness even cruelty. BesidesTed and dad, I haven’t been aroundmen much—except the two hands
that were working for us.”"And they weren’t any different.
Maybe worse,” Rosy said."That's it. And when you andDave came home, I saw you were
different from the others I’d known.So when you were kind enough to
hide ail this from me, it was hard tobelieve. It was something new."They rounded the corner and cut
across the street to the hotel. Rosy’sface was grim, his jaw set. Mary
looked at him shyly; he did not lookat her. As they entered the lobby,Mary stopped.
“I'm sorry if I’ve offended you,”she said humbly.Rosy smiled a little crookedly.
"Bless your heart! you ’didn’t," hesaid gently."I don’t understand.” Mary said."You looked so cross."Rosy fumbled with his hat. not
taking his eyes from hers. “Thensome day. I’m goin’—I’m goin’ toa-k you somethin’ and if you answer

How can I advance in intelligence
in character, in material prosperity?
Must I and my loved ones live always
a life of worry and lack, dependent
upon unpredictable economic forces?
Is there no sure road to abundance
or security?
Today, millions in every land, are
asking these questions. The answers
range from an intense capitalism,
through a protective paternalism,
down to the final drab regimenta
tion of Communism. Quite rightly,
the average intelligent citizen dis
trusts all of these answers.
The secret, my friends, of power
of mind, security, and an ever grow
ing abundance lies not within any
economic theory, but within the
great inner self of each individual—
that inner self of which we all ex
press, at any one time, only a frac
tion.
Every great’achievement was first
a thought, and a very intense and
careful delineated thought, in the
mind of its creator. Behind every
advance of the race, great or small,
, lies such a thought. And by holding
to such ideas in faith and without
fear, no matter what obstacles ap
peared, great men have made every
real advance civilization has known.
Their method may be applied by
any normally intelligent person, to
the re-ordering and successful de
velopment of his own life. Not or.ly
spiritual and mental achievements
are open to each of us, but abund
ant material prosperity as well.
But there is a technique a pre
scribed method for creative think
ing, and in this series of talks I pro
pose to outline this method so simply
that all who will may master it,
and may thereby have abundance of
the good things of Spirit, Mind and
Body, which the Creator intended
lor all. Let no one consider such a
possibility remote, or its realization
impracticable. Each one of us is the
product of his own thinking. And if
past, negative thinking has made him
r failure, it is equally certain that
present, creative thinking can make
him a success.
I First, realize that thoughts of fear
I and lack create corresponding condi-
i tions, while thoughts of courage, de
termination and abundance, if sus
tained, inevitably produce a rich and
abundant life. In future talks I
thall tell why this is so, how the
mind works, and, most important of

The minister was leaving the
church after the evening service
when a member of his congregation
stopped him and said: “I like to come
to ehurch when you are preaching
sir.” ?
‘I ’m glad to .hear that,” replied

somebody appreciates my sermons.”

How Chinese Buy
Canned Fruits
Canadian canned fruits and veget
ables are well liked in Hong Kong
and Canadian exporters are aware
that an important feature of the
Hong Kong and South China market
is the value placed on an attractive
brand or trade mark, or as the Chin
ese cal) it “chop.” In making sales
to the Chinese population, the “chop”
'is of the greatest value because a
considerable proportion of the buy
ing population cannot read English.
They associate a particular require
ment with a certain size, shape or
color of the container. An original
purchase of canned product will be
made chiefly on the basis of price,
but if the product proves satisfac
tory the buyer ivill examine the label
carefully and in future purchases
will always insist on the can with
the same chop or label. The types
of label used by Canadian packers,
states the Canadian Trade Commis
sioner at Hong Kong, are satisfac
tory for the South China market.

of white roses. Mr. and Mrs. MacKen
zie left on a motor trip and on their
