Simmons Completely restyled from stem to stern and replete with advanced new features, the new Nash car for 1939 will soon be on display here, it was announced today by G. G. Hogg, Thamesford, local Nash dealer, upon his return from Toronto, where he and several hundred of his Canadian associates attended a pre-showing of the new models, on Tuesday. J. C. Porter of the Hogg Sales Staff, G. E. Hessenaur, manager of the Thames­ ford Branch of the Royal Bank, and ’ W. R. Veale, publisher of the Inger­ soll Tribune, accompanied Mr. Hogg to (Toronto. 1g* design, the new car is pure,inofotn streamlining, said Mr. Hogg. It has a very narrow, sparkling rad­ iator grille, wide “catwalks” which are broken by cooling grilles and massive, rounded fenders. Adjustable headlights are set flush into the fen­ ders, their lenses forming continua- bon of the fender lines. The flowing, aerodynamic lines of the car converge on a streamlined back which has just the trace of a fin down the centre. “The ne,w body and hood lines, which are the most stylish Nash has ever presented, and the slenderizing treatment of the front end give the car a longer, lower, wider, racier appearance,” said Mr. Hogg. Nash engineers have given much attention to motoring safety, accord­ ing to the local dealer. Driver and passengers are completely enclosed by reinforced steel in the 1939 bod­ ies. Honry gauge body metal is used, and this is supported by box-type steel body girdcys. Heavy steel floors and a battleship type bulkhead make up the remainder of the all- steel body. Wheelbase of the Nash LaFayette series of cars is 117 inches. The Am­ bassador Six wheelbase is 121 inches and that of the Ambassador Eight is 125 inches.

Following the opening num­ ber, “The Maple Leaf,” a generous program of musical numbers and choruses was rendered by the pupils of the schools taking part, and a splendid address on “Our Heritage," was given by Miss Rose, which was most interesting and will be long re­ membered by all who heard her. Violin and guitar numbers were given by Messrs. C. Waring and S. Dundas; Dickson’s pupils gave a chorus and tap dancing; Thamesford pupils, choruses; Adams’ pupils, a portrayal of “Home Sweet Home,” with the Misses Matheson and Mc­ Caul taking the solo part; also a bagpipe selection by Ross McDonald; Dunn’s pupils gave a band selection with Hugh Gordon as leader, the in­ struments used being of their own make, consisting of various articles such as lard pail, bells, etc., which were wonderful in tone and enjoyed by all, judging by the applause it brought forth; West Oxford pupils gave a chorus, “The Farmer Boys." All numbers were given hearty and well-merited applause. This year through the generq^ity of Mrs. D. Sutherland, who donated the prizes, a spelling contest was given, one pupil from each school competing, six taking part. Miss Rose handled the book in her most capable manner. The first prize was captured by Miss Bettie Brown of Dickson’s, and each~6ne taking part also received a gift. Mrs. D.

Announcement Mr. and Mrs. Walter Beatty an­ nounce the engagement of their daughter, Dori* Christen*, to Ander­ son Charlas, son of 'Mr. and Mrs..George Thornton, Ingeraoll, the mar­ riage to take place quietly the latter part of November. Yesterday, Massey-Harris Com­ pany, through its Vice-President, and General Manager, J. S. Duncan, an­ nounced price reductions on its line of farm equipment. “The Company is pleased to announce," states the message, “substantial ’1st price re­ ductions on Tractors and General Farm Machinery, effective November 1st, 1938." “The reductions are the result,” says Mr. Duncan, “of a desire on the part of the Company to share with - its customers the benefits of cconomes effected, together .with the savings resulting from the present slight decreases in prices of raw materials." Reductions on Tractors range as high as 384.00 and on Grain Binders with enclosed gears the reductions range up to 39.75, and on the Open Gear Binder up to $30.00. Plows show a reduction up to $7.00 and Grain Drills up to $8.00,according to sizes. In his announcement, Mr. Duncan says, “The Company is gratified to be able to make these reductions at this time,” and states that from the substantial nature of them “they will be of material benefit to the farmer who needs to replace his machinery.” “We have a very real apprecia­ tion”, states Mr. Duncan, "of the dif­ ficulties which confront the farmer and are unceasing in our efforts to provide him with machinery at the very lowest possible price. More than that, our desire to make farm­ ing more profitable has led to the development of newer types of machines, such as the Power-Take- Off Mower, the One-Way Disc and pew small Power-Take-Off Reaper- Fhresher Combine which reduces the (test of harvesting by from ten to fifteen cents a bushel. These, and the new lower-operating cost Tractors are an indication of the effort the Implement Industry is putting forth .to. make farming more profitable."

Rev. Charles A. Seager, Lord Bishop of Huron, urged his hearers to think more deeply of the great need of the present day and generation, which needs more than anything else, a renewal of faith in Almighty God and a determination to drive away the clouds of doubt and darkness, fear and depression and pessimism and to push onto that service which the whole of humanity needs, faithwith God. His text was taken from Romans* 1-16, dealing especially with the second portion of it: “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth." The candidates were presented to the Bishop by Rev, H. E. Merifield of St. James’ Church. Rev. H. B. Ash­ by, rector of New St. Paul’s Church, Woodstock, assisted in the service.

VEALE, PublisherPfiGNES:—Tribune Offtce, 18 - Residence, 442A.THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1938Aiming Low For a New HighAiming low for a new high sounds like a paradox­ ical objective. Yet -that is just what the tuberculosis workers across Canada are doing—they are striving to bring about a new low death rate from tubercul­ osis. The number of deaths from this disease has been constantly decreasing during the past thirty years and it is believed that with continuous effort tuberculosis eventually can be eradicated. With the help of funds raised by the sale of Christ­ mas seals—which will soon be distributed in Canada for the twelfth consecutive year—tuberculosis associa­ tions have been instrumental in creating a nation­ wide machinery <to combat the insidious sickness that for many years was the leading cause of death in Canada. Speaking at a banquet of the Big Eight Society here last evening, Major Gordon Ingram of London, Chairman of the Christmas Seal Committee for Queen Alexandra Sanitarium, Byron, gave a very interest­ ing review of some of the work done with the com­ paratively small sums of money which Christmas Seals have raised in scores of communities. He. appealed to his hearers.to buy seals this year and thus support a very deserving cause. Major Ingram pointed out that thousands of fam­ ilies each year benefit from the diagnostic facilities, the advice and follow-up services provided free of charge through hundreds of clinics which are sup­ ported by Christmas Seal funds. Dozens of public health nurses devote full time to these families in which tuberculosis is suspected or known to exist, watching for the earliest symptoms of the disease so that treatment may be started in the early and cur­ able stages. Hundreds of children are sent to fresh air camps where their general health and ability to resist exposure to tuberculosis is built up. Hundred.- of tuberculosis patients are given an opportunity to improve their general education or to retain them­ selves for new and better lines of work. Each year surveys are made of thousands of school children and Normal School students and other groups of young people in whom tuberculosis is most likely to be found. In these surveys thousands of these young people are examined and suspicious cases are marked for obser­ vation while the occasional case needing treatment is discovered and provided for. In addition to all of thfc work which gives splendid health service to more than 100,000 people, the Christmas Seal Campaign each year sponsors an intensive educational campaign when the gospel of Preventability of Tuberculosis is broadcast over the country carrying hope and re­ assurance to thousands while thousands more are thus indirectly brought to seek medical advice and discover their tuberculosis in its early and curable stage. The public today knows' much more about the pre­ vention and treatment of tuberculosis than it did thirty years ago. Because of this we believe the tuber­ culosis associations are not too optimistic in aiming for a new low death rate, which will mean a new high spot in accomplishments. We even go so far as to believe with them that the new “high” will some day approach the zero mark! At any rate, we the public, as partners in the tuberculosis campaign, have a chance to work with them toward this goal when we buy and use Christmas Seals during the holiday season. The Poppy Day Fund Saturday November 5th, the citizens of Ingersoll and vicinity will be afforded the opportunity of buy­ ing poppies under the auspices of the local branch of the Canadian Legion. Poppy Day is an annual event, and is intended to commemorate in a very tan­ gible way the sacrifices made by British soldiers throughout the whole Empire. Canada has good reason to remember the Great War in common with the other British nations, and to commemorate the services of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. Of the more than 500,000 Canadians recruited in the Great War, 60,000 of them sleep in France and Flanders, another 170,000 were incapacitated in a greater or lesser degree by wounds and disabilities suffered in the long and terrible conflict. In July, 1936, Canadians made a pilgrimage to Vimy Ridge to honor the memory of their fallen soldiers at the unveiling of that noble and majestic memorial, on the base of which are inscribed the names of 11,283 Can­ adian soldiers whose bodies were never recovered, and whose names do not appear on the crosses in any of the numerous cemeteries scattered over the long battle front. The appeal for the Poppy Fund serves two pur­ poses. It will provide many comforts for incapacitated soldiers that cannot be obtained in any other way. Moreover, it helps the veterans who are employed in the vetcraft industries administered by the Domihion Government to earn a living for themselves. . It is now nineteen years since the bugles sounded “Cease Fire” along the battlefields on the Western front. A younger generation has grown up knowing little of the terrible struggles and sacrifices of the Great War, except what they have learned from older people and through the memorial services that are maintained from year to year. Every patriotic Canadian should wear a poppy to commemorate the herojc exploits and sacrifices of Canadian soldiers overseas, and to pro­ vide a fund whereby the Canadian Legion may dis­ tribute comfort and good cheer in every home where it is needed. Tillsonburg Editor Retires Announcement was made in last week's issue of the Tillsonburg News of the retirement of Mr. F. E. Aldrich, editor of the paper since it was established in 1920. M^-Ttldrich has sold his interest in the business to his associate, ‘Mr. H. F. Johnston, who now becomes sole owner of The News. The Tribune extends con­ gratulations to Mr. Johnston and wishes for him continued success in the publishing business in our neighburing town. Mrf Aldrich is well known in Ingersoll. He is a brother-in-law of Mrs. F. P. Leake and his early asso­ ciations in the printing and newspaper business were with. Ingersoll firms. At one time he was employed on the Tribune Staff. Mr. Aldrich will continue to make hjs home in Till­ son burg where he has edited papers continuously since 1902. He was editor of the Tillsonburg Liberal -from 1902 to 1920, when(it amalgamated with the Tillsonburg Observer to form The Tillsonburg Nows. National Cheese WeekNational Cheese Week, which will be held this yearfrom November 7 to November 12, inclusive, was in­augurated by the Dairy Industry of Canada for thepurpose of calling attention to the advantages ofcheese as an item of food and to give informationabout the many appetizing ways of serving this ex­cellent food product. Besides being a valuable andeconomical food, cheese has a peculiar interest to Can­ adians, because there are many* thousands of farmers in Canada producing milk for market and the manu­ facture of cheese utilises about seven per cent of this production. Cheese is a concentrated form of milk, because one pound of cheese represents one gallon (about 10 pounds) of milk. Cheese is thus rich in fat and protein, and is one of the best muscle and body build­ ers for girls and boya. Although Canadians eat the least cheese of any of the principal nations, less than 4 pounds per head of population, no less than about 17 per cent of the total population of Canada is direct­ ly dependent upon the dairy industry for a living, Canadian cheese is famous all the world over as a product second to none. The high position of the dairy industry with its cheese makers may be gauged from the fact that the value of Canadian dairy pro­ duce in 1937 was more than 8228,000,000. Cheese is also a convenient commodity in the home, and its proper storage does not present a difficult problem. The majority of persons who live near a grocery store buy cheese in rather small quantities, so that really there is no storage problem. Larger quantities are just as easy to keep. If a whole small cheese, or a part of a large cheese, is bought to be stored in the home, care should be taken to prevent drying-out or the development of mould. A good plan is to cut a small portion from the cheese for im­ mediate or near future use, and cover the cut surface of the cheese to be stored with a coating of paraffin wax, applying the melted wax with a brush. When stored irt a cool, ventilated, dry place, cheese so treat­ ed will keep in perfect condition for some consider­ able time. The portion cut for immediate use should be covered and kept in a cool dry place. When this portion is consumed another portion may be cut, and the operation repeated until the perfectly conditioned cheese is used up. It is universally recognized that Canadian Cheddar cheese is the finest made anywhere. For many years the highest awards for Canadian Cheddar Cheese has been won by makers in the Ingersoll district. Those who boost National Cheese Week .will be helping to boost the Dairy Industry which is directly the main source of revenue for the farmers of this district.

YULE, Manager \ Beachville (Sub-Agency): Open Tuesday and Friday e "A BANK WHERE SMALL ACCOUNTS ARE WELCOME” Ingersoll Hockey To Centre On Youngsters Autumn Traffic Dangers Right now the country is passing through the dan­ gerous season from the traffic point of view. Late autumn days have the highest accident rate of the year. This can be attributed to a number of causes. Dur­ ing the morning and evening rush hours the light is imperfect but not sufficiently so to make driving with lights necessary. Accidents are the inevitable result. Nor is the presto tempo of summer traffic moderated* until snow and ice made it mandatory. This is also thd season of wet, slippery pavements and low visibility. Once warned of the dangerous days it behooves every man, woman and child to exercise at least one Bjore ounce of caution if not out of consideration for others then for reason of personal safety. There are a dozen traffic "don’ts” which bear repea’ing at this time but one injunction covers them all—Keep your eyes open and your mind on the serious business of walking or driving. life emerged from the sea, however, land animals,, including humans, have to take their salt and their water separately; we can’t live on salt water. But we must have salt not only to make food palatable but' to keep well. Salt has such an affinity for water that it absorbs it from the atmos­ phere. In rainy weather or damp climates it is impossible to keep salt from "caking” and clogging the salt­ shaker. Nothing in everyday domestic life fc more annoying than not to be able to shake out salt in just the Quantity needed. But a newly-patent­ ed invention promises to solve that problem permanently. The trick is to pass a current of electricity through the salt so that every grain will be “charged” with the same kind of electricity as every other grain. When two objects are both negatively charged they repeal each other; or if both are positively charged the same thing happens. By giving a quantity of salt a shock of 20,000 volts of either posi­ tive or negative electricity the ten­ dency of the particles is to fly apart, and all the moisture in the world won’t make them stick together. That sounds like a boon to houslwives. Barbados Visited The course that will be followed here in connection with hockey activ­ ities is not yet beyond the specula­ tive stage. No definite announcement has been made by those who usually take the initiative in preliminary work. In sports circles, however, the consensus of opinion is that organiz­ ation will likely be confined to either a juvenile or junior team. On the strength of the splendid showing • made by the juvenile team last sea­ son, a team in this division again would undoubtedly be well support­ ed. On the other hand, it might be possible to build up a junior team, using some of last year’s juveniles and other material1 that would be available. With the hockey season drawing near, it is expected the situation will soon reach a definite stage. /Action also is awaited on the part of the South Oxford Rural League, which has functioned for many years, and has provided keen interest for residents in the neighboring rural sections. This league usually consists of frtfm 10 to 12 teams, and unless action is taken to cut down the num­ ber and add to their strength, it is likely it will be as representative a«‘ in past years. Mrs. Murray—“What does your husband like for his breakfast?” Mrs. Hurry—*Oh, anything • I haven’t got in the house.” T HE D O CTO R Telia The Story by W. E. AUGH1NBAUGH, M.D. MICROBES The records of prehistoric ages show that disease is older than the first man, and this fact is proven by decayed teeth, spongy bones, rheumatic joints and abcessed bones—(one of which recently exhumed war large enough to hold more than a quart of pus)— which have been found and which belonged to crea­ tures living in the reptilian age. Of course when men had merged from their primi­ tive status and for many ^enturies thereafter it was commonly believed that disease was caused by evilspirits. With the discovery of the microscope, medical men were quick to learn that the causes of most diseases were bacteria, and then there stepped into the picture the master minds of such scientists as Pasteur, Lister and Koch, who ascertained that there waj another world of which little was known and that it was peopled by a population invisible to the naked eye— a truly dangerous and "murderous population,” Dr. Howard Haggard calls them. In addition there were also found various bacteria which were silently working in the interest of man­ kind—gnuine benefactors of humanity, / How long can bacteria live 14 a question that has puzzled scientists. Do they live weeks, months, years or centuries? Within recent yaars it has been abso­ lutely demonstrated that bacteria remain viable for long periods of time. In fact one may with propriety say that they live almost indefinitely, provided of course, that conditions are favorable for their survival. For example. Dr. C. R. Lipman of the University of Califortfia has shown -that living bacteria exist in coal taken from deep mines iir Wales and also from Pennsylvania. In addition to this he learned that soil which had been sealed and kept immune from outside interferences for periods varying from twenty-five to sixty-five years, all contained living bacteria. Adobe bricks—that is bricks made from clay and water and dried in the hot California sun—and used suit missions churches into build one of the old Je southern California, were obtained, broken open and examined. From cultures made from the material in the center of these bricks, living bacteria were found, and it is positively known that these bricks were more than one hundred and fifty years old. So despite the strenuous work on the pant of scien­ tific men, it has not yet been determined definitely, how long bacteria can survive, but the indications are that given the proper conditions, they can exist for more than 2,500 yean and yet remain viable. A good light at your dressing table is most important if you want to look your best at all times. Your face must be evenly lighted in order to put on make-up smoothly. A strong, indirect light which gives no glare and makes no shadow is preferable. However, if you want lamps on your dressing table, have., the lamps of head height and use shades. . And just a hint I want to pass on to you about your make-up itself. A dark make-up absorbs light and de­ tracts attention while a lighter one reflects light and attracts attention. Keep this in mind if you want to emphasize ypur best feature.• • • Quinces are the last call for fall canning. Even if you’vC canned all summer don’t neglect to make some quince jelly or old-fashioned quince honey. It’s delicious to use with apples and will provide a new flavour for £ou. When you bake apples put a tea­ spoonful of the honey in the cavity of each apple. Try adding it to apple pie—about half a cup to a pie. If you put whipped cream or pump­ kin pie drop a spoonful of the jelly or honey on the whipped cream. Interior decorators approve of slip covers all the year 'round, now. If you can have two sets, one for winter and one for summer, you can practically make your living room over for the different seasons. Strong, warm-looking colors are best for winter since they create a feel­ ing of warmth and brightness on dark days. By the same token, soft, cool-looking colors are suitable for summer. The heating season is upon us but -before it starts in earnest check up on the system and the house. All the doors on the furnace should fit tightly. This includes the checks and dampers as well as the feed, clean­ out and ash pit doors. Any cracks in chimney should be closed up for safety as well as for a good draft. Be sure the furnace is clean. As to the house, go over the win­ dows for cracked and loosened putty. Replace wherever necessary. Weath- strip outside doors and windows that don’t fit tightly. A good way to take care of the crack between the upper and lower sashes of windows is .to put a. piece of transparent mending tissue over the crack. It doesh’t show a bit and you can dust over it easily. Apple Exports Increase Canadian apples exported to the British market during the current season up to October 12, amounted to 500,808 barrels and 519,082 boxes, an increase of 52 per cent on boxes and of 25 per cent on barrels, compared with the corresponding period of last season.

As mankind spread from the trop­ ical regions in which human life probably began, and felt the need for something besides their own skins, ro keep them warm, they began to make clothes. First of all garments were prob­ ably the raw skins of animals. Man learned very early how to treat skins to preserve them, and how to sew them with bone needles and animal tendons for thread, as the Eskimos still do. Furs still make the most expensive garments. The next step was probably the discovery that the hair or wool of animals could be made into felt by beating and wetting it. Millions of people, the half-savage tribes of Mongolia literally live - in felt houses, great tents called "yurts,” which are made of thick felt Civil­ ized people consume great quantities of felt for making hats and for warm boots for outdoor work in cold climates. How many millions of years elap­ sed before man learned to spin wool into threads, and to weave the threads into cloth, nobody knows. It was a good deal later before vegetable fibers were spun and woven. < Flax was probably the first; people wore linen for thousands of years before they began to wear cotton. Silk is perhaps the most mod­ ern of natural fibers used for tex­ tiles. The Chinese discovered the \alue of fine threads of the silk­ worm cocoon more than five thous­ and years ago. • • ■ W O O L ................................shrinking For warmth and durability fabrics woven of wool have always been the most highly prized. So long as soap was unkonwn and hot water seldom available for washing, wool was practically unshrinkable. About four hundred years ago soap was invent­ ed, and people began to discover that woolen garments washed in hot water with soap would shrink badly. Long before that they had found that wool absorbs grease from the hair and skins of people who wear it The custom of wearing linen collars and cuffs grew from the necessity of keeping the woolen garments free from absorbed grease. Not until the discovery of the grease-dissolving properties of ben­ zine and gasoline and the very mod­ ern introduction of "dry-cleaning” did collars and cuffs begin to be un­ necessary. Now a new invention removes the remaining disadvantages of^yvool. Three young chemists employfed-in the War Department have invented and patented a process which itiakes wool absolutely unshrinkable} even when boiled with soap, I It consists in the immersion of woolen fabrics in a chemical solution of a chlorine compound, at a certain temperature for a fixed time. After such treatment the non-shrinkable quality of the fabric lasts as long as the garment does. The Government is giving the right to use the new process free of charge for Army and Navy uniforms and blankets. CHEMISTRY .... rilk The latest step in human progress in the matter of clothing has- been taken by the chemists. "Revolu­ tionary” is not too strong a word to use about the discovery by chemists that fibers suitable for spinning and weaving can be made without using any of the natural sources upon which the world has so long de­ pended. / AEverybody is familiar with the artificial silk known under the gen­ eral name of rayon. It has already taken the place of both silk and cot­ ton goods to a great extent. Now the newest development, not ready for the market, is a process of mak­ ing a fiber from castor oil-and c».al which is superior to even real silk. The disadvantage of rayon has been that when stretched out of shape it does not spring bacic, as silk does. The new fabric, it is promised, wiH be even more elastic than silk. Some years ago in Italy I saw a wool-like fabric which was made by ariflcial means. Now it has been placed on the market, to the conster­ nation of wool-growers. It is made from casein, which is a milk product Those who have studied it tell me that it has every good quality of real wool and none of the bad ones- ahd can be produced at less than half the cost of real wool. Nobody has yet invented a method of making artificial fur, though the humble rabbit masquerades under a dozen different names. SA L T .....................................pouring Salt and water are two substances without which no one can live. Since By Many Canadians Barbados in the British West In­ dies has enjoyed a steadily increas­ ing tourist trade during i ecent years. Due to its easterly position in the Atlantic, Barbados is favored with a constant breeze and a moderate temperature the year round and attracts a considerable number of transient and annual visitors, a large percentage of whom are Canadians. A growing number of Americans are also discovering the vacation at­ tractions of Barbados as passenger lists of the Canadian National Steam­ chips "Lady” liners in this service show, these liners calling at Boston on both the north and south bound trips. Barbados’ trade is done mostly with Great Britain, Canada and the United States, these countries ac­ counting for approximately 70% of the imports and absorb over 80 per cent of the .exports. Sugar and mo­ lasses are the main products which Canada takes from Barbados and the largest single item imported into Barbados from Canada is flour. Other commodities include salt pork, unmanufactured wood and timber, oats, shingles, motor cars, sulphate of ammonia, shooks and staves, wearing apparel, dried fish, cheese and many other items.

Recently Queen Wilhelmina of Holland celebrated the fortieth year of her reign, and the fortieth year of peace in her land. This strikes me as being a particularly handsome feat. All along the border of France, and Germany there are angry men thumbing their noses at each other over a long line of forti­ fications. In Spain half the popula­ tion finds the other half highly un­ attractive. The Japanese frown up­ on the Chinese and the Russians eye Japan with a jaundiced eye. But the Dutch go right on being very pacific, eating Edam cheese and tumbling around in their wooden shoes, contemplating their windmills with a serene if whirling eye. They diddle around with their tulips, skate on their canals in winter and live inplaces like Rotterdam. This makes me feel a lot better about the whole world situation. It seems to me that everybody these days is becoming only too proficient in getting into a fight, with not nearly enough thought being given to staying out of one. But the Dutch have mastered the art, and I don’t see how they do it. In my own case I find it difficult enough to stay out of an argument for more ' than aweek. The answer must be .that the Dutch are a lot leveler-headed than I am. As I Ipok back on some of the more vitriolic of my arguments, I find that the most serious one was whether or not President Roosevelt’s middle name was Daniel or Delano. II memory serves. I was siding with Daniel and only the^fact that I was wearing track shoes at the time saved me from a goad bust in the breeches. At other times I have been known to grow highly indignant over somebody’s maudlin-, conception of how to shear sheep and the rise ofgumboils. And yet I don’t think I’m particu- arly exceptional in this matter. No­ body ever argues over anything that really makes any difference ore way or the other. Even national govern­ ments quibble over the advisability of the wig at state functions rather than the naked noggin. The Revolu­ tion started because somebody threw tea into Boston harbor, playing In­ dian. Abrogate a proctocoi and everybody starts putting their glasses in a pocket and taking off their coats.. I think this universal touchiness is not part of the Dutch character be­ cause they indulge in such peaceful activities. Nobody can eat cheese and .be belligerent. Nor can you goon an effective warpath in wooden shoes, and the tulip isn’t so hot as an inspiring standard. It’s too bad that other people aren’t subject to these docile influences. Maybe if a couple of dictators I could name ate more cheese or had stuck their Ang­ ers in holes in dikes, they might be ( better men right now.

H. Cuttie, finance commissioner of Tor­ onto Diocese and chairman of the Na­ tional Laymen’s Council, addressing laymen of Oxford Deanery in St. James’ Anglican Church parish hall, Ingersoll, on Wednesday evening last. “Western Canada,” he said, “is honeycombed with that atheistic movement that is going to change the whole trend of things unless you and I make possible the services of the church out there wherever they are needed. The mission of the church is to establish buildings, put in priests who will preach the Gospel of the Kingdom, and to send out teachers in the Sunday Schools who will teach them that God still reigns, if Western Canada is to be saved, our contributions must go out there in increasing amounts. I believe for several years to come the Church must go to the people; the people cannot come to the church, because we cannot build enough churches for them and the population is scat­ tered. They cannot provide the ministry of the church; it must be supplied by you men down here. It becomes not a burden but an oppor­ tunity for you to touch the lives and buid the Kingdom in Western Can­ ada to establish, not a Communistic area there but a civilizational 00 per cent. Christian and British. Mr. Cuttie spoke similarly of the need of foreign missions for support. He was introduced by Rev. H. B. Ashby, rural dean, and at the close a hearty vote of thanks to the speaker was moved by W. E. Elliott, Woodstock, and W. H. Arkell, Ing­ ersoll. Rev. John Morrlh, Woodstock,- opened a general discussion, in which numerous laymen took part, upon ways and means of raising the full budget npportionment in this dean­ ery. Rev. H. E. Merifield said that of $5,563 asked from Oxford only about one-fifth had been remitted to the Synod office in ten months of the year. He urged the laymen of Oxford’s 20 congregations to canvass the membership. Rev. C. J. Queen, Princeton, called the roll of parishes and asked repre­ sentatives to stand. This showed 63 present from nine congregations. The rural dean advocated organiz­ ation of a Deanery Lay Association, but said the initiative was for the laity themselves. Sidney Bagnall, Ingersoll, Enter­ tained the gathering with vocal solos: “Money 0”, “Deep River,” “Think­ ing I Hear Thee Call,” and “Without a Song.” All were heartily applaud­ ed. Mrs. T. C. Washington.was the accompanist. Rev. S. W. Semple, Thamesford, led the gathering in well-known songs after an excellent banquet, served by the ladies of St. James’ Church. Rev. A. C. Cummer of Tillsonburg, pronounced the benediction at the close of the meeting. Cook's Corners’ Artists Were Entertained The young people of Cook’s Cor­ ners who staged the play, “One in a Million," this Spring, partook of a Hallowe’en dinner at Ruth Turner’s home recently, afterwards taking in “Marie Antoinette,” in Woodstock. The table, nicely decorated for the occasion, was centered with a lighted pumpkin surrounded with Hallowe’en candies and apples. The orange and black streamers and decorations made a lovely table in the soft candle light. All reported a good lime and a sumptuous dinner for which they extended! a hearty voteof thanks.

Limited; a chance to erect factories free from the threats of bombs; can give to a man and woman with children the best democratic civilization in the world; with all its faults, life in Can­ ada is more human, more democratic, more sane and more natural than in any other country in the world.” Those are the words of a man who has travelled extensively, who has come in contact with all classes and conditions of people, and who has a gift for understanding difficult situ­ ations. And the same keen appraisal is made of the people as of the coun­ try, with the criticism more severe. Canadians, thinks Lord /Beaver­ brook’s white-haired boy, lack nation­ al discipline. That does not mean that we are particularly lawless. But just that we do not recognize cur responsibility to our country. It might be owing to a lack of na­ tional consciousness. But any ten­ dency in that way ought surely be dispelled now, after having exper­ ienced an autumn when the beauty of our country has been more im­ pressive than ever before. {National discipline should follow easily, so that it might be expressed in public service. Compared with public service in the Old Land, Mr. Baxter feels that of Canada does not receive the re­ spect which it deserves. Over there, men'in public life are held in high regard, for it is recognized that only men of integrity are chosen. And anyone betraying public trust is promptly removed from office. Over here he finds a tendency to view with suspicion those who aspire to pubic office, as if there must be an ulterio motive. Thus the office becomes no more important than the person holding it; instead of the man being as big as his position. More important still is the fact that in Great Britain, the individual does not expect to be enriched at the expense of the State. Members of Parliament do receive remunera­ tion, but it, is not nearly sufficient to cover the expense* incurred in con­ nection with the position. And most public servants such as mayors and aidermen do not receive anything. They consider the honor bestowed i* ample reward. In that way public graft is practically non-existent over there. It is sometimes claimed that such a system debars from public service men of ability who could not afford to give their time gratis. That point is soon disposed -of by showing that there is a plentiful supply to draw on from men who have retired from active business, who are able to give the .advantage of their experience, while the younger men are gaining theirs. In that way they all make their contribution. Not that we are tx> conclude that only those who would otherwise be cn the shelf attend to governmental affairs, either local or national. For there . are many young" men who serve too. But they have to find other sources of income than the public purse. Though he does not do so, we gain the impression of this former Cana­ dian saying, “wake up and live Can­ adians, and live for Canada!” “That florist certainly keeps in touch with his slogan: “Say it with flowers’.” “What’s his method?” “Well, he sends me a bunch of forget-me-nots with each bill.” After a long talk on the value of peace, goodwill and disarmament, a teacher asked his class if they object­ ed to war.

I would notbe without my Kruaehen Salts for anything.”—M.B. Two of the salts in Kruschen areeffectual solvents of - uric acid theexcess of whieh is decidedly injur­ ious. They swiftly, dull the sharpedges of the painful crystals—thecause of pain and stiffness—and convert them into a harmless solu­ tion, which is than expelled throughthe natural channels.

RACESEXCELLENT 'CROWD DISAPPOINTINGSome of Finest Horses In On­tario Entered In Local Meet.Sponsors Deserve Credit ForReviving Races Here . Some of the finest trotters and Pacers as well as runners were enter­ ed in the Race Meet held at Victoria Park here on Wednesday afternoon last. The undertaking was arranged and sponsored solely by Fred Hoag, proprietor of the Oxford Hotel, Ing­ ersoll, who deserves credit for bring­ ing such a fine array of horses to Ingersoll in an attempt to revive racing here. The weather was ideal but the crowd was most disappointing and much smaller than had been counted upon. There was a large number present from a distance but local and district racing fans failed to give the sponaore the backing such a fine meet deserved. The card consisted of four harness events and a half-mile run, and ow­ ing to darkness was not finished. All heats were close and .were well filled, as high as nine horses being entered in one event The track, while nar­ row, was in excellent shape and good time was made in all heats. Fred Hoag, Ingersoll, acted as starter. The other officials were: Judges, B. B. Moulton and L. Owens," Tillson- burg; S. A. Gibson, Ingersoll; E. Moulton, Mt. Elgin; timers, J. Smith, Tillsonburg; H. M. Nelson, Aylmer. Follow'ing are the results: First Division Classified Rosalie, A. Dickerson, Mt Hope, driven by Tolhurst 1 1 1 Frank, G.

There are two things we would like to place before you:— 1. That the administration of the money entrusted to us last year has been well and ably performed. Not one cent has been misused, and not cne deserving ex-service man or his family has been overlooked. 2. The need this year is as great as ever. Our men are older. Work is still scarce for them throughout the year—consequently our ex-ser­ vice man finds himself in a more hopeless condition than ever through being unable to supply the bare nec­ essities of life for his family. We appeal to you on their behalf. They gave in 1914-1918 their all in defence of the ideals of the Empire, Justice, Liberty, Love of Home and Love of God. They suffered. They are now suffering moren tha the ordinary citizen in these post depression days because the war took out of them what ordinarily would have kept them fit for many years to coma. Will you in grateful acknowledgement of their service give and give liberally to our Poppy Fund, in order that we may be able to help them over the times of difficulty and want which seem to be increasing every day? We know our appeal .will not be in vain. Please buy a Poppy Saturday, November 4th, or mail your donation to the Poppy Fund, Ingersoll Branch No. 119, Canadian Legion. .

U. for their October meeting, which was well attended. The president, Mrs. B. G. Jenvey, was in charge and Mrs. W. J. Row­ land offered prayer, while Mrs, J. W. Middleton gave the scripture les­ son. 'Mrs. James Johnstone favored with a pleasing vocal solo, Mias Leona Johnstone playing her accompani­ ment. Mrs. Rowland contributed a temperance reading and Mrs. G. Making offered prayer. During the business part of the meeting, Mrs J. Ellery was appointed to the office of corresponding secre­ tary to fill the vacancy caused by the illness of Mrs. W. A. Jamieson. Mrs. W. Daniels, delegate to the W. C. T. U. convention held in Hamilton, gave an excellent report, including among other interesting items a statement made by Rev. Dr. George Little in which he criticized the Department of Agriculture in sending out recipes on the art of making wines at home. He deplored the number of habitual women drinkers in Ontario, the re­ port continued, which he estimated at 200,000. At this time also Dr. A. J. Irwin, general secretary, gave numerous statistics, bearing out in cold figures the cost of liquor con­ sumption, which he said took its worst toll in human suffering. Beer, he said had trebled in sales during the past four years and hard liquor had increased 76 per cent. In the juvenile court at Toronto cases have increased 63 per cent, and a protest will be sent to the Department of Agriculture against the sending out of home brew recipes. The report further stated that resolutions against gambling, individual and soc­ ial, hospital sweepstakes and the ex­ isting liquor control act were passed by the Ontario W. C. T. U. at the morning session of the 61st annual convention held in Hamilton. The program closed with prayer by Mrs. Jenvey, and the hostess served delicious refreshments. She was assisted by Mrs. B. G. Jenvey and Mrs. John Shelton. The next meeting is to be held at the home of Mrs. Charles Greenaway, Charles street east.

The weather was dry, and dust thrown up by passing vehicles had settled upon grass and shrubbery. It pene­ trated Mrs. Holmes's house and covered its scanty furnishings with a thin, gray qoating; it hung in the air and choked her. Dust was noth­ ing new to her—in fact, dust, grime, disorder were nearly always pres­ ent in her house—but now its taste was irritating and it caused her to revile the sightseers whd had turned this back road into a busy thorough­ fare. All were morbid curiosity-seek­ ers; they were bound to or from the scene of the Ethridge murder. Mary Holmes had heard the news of the crime while she was feeding her gerte two mornings before, and had hurried up the road as fast ar she could go. She had been one of the first to reach the scene ofthe tragedy, arriving nearly an hoar ahead of ihe policemen and thenewspaper reporters Inasmuch as she had known Amos Ethridgequit? well and was his rmrest neighbor, naturally she had come infor a g>od deal of questioning. She had little to tell, nevertheless n hadbcai an exciting experience; it hadrewnded her of old times to answer and to parry quick, searching ques­tions, while rcportorial pencils flew to keep pace with her words. Thereporters had stared at her curiously and had wanted to know who shewas—all about her, in fact—but she had been sly enough to give themno satisfaction. She had remained there all day, mingling tvith. the ever-growingcrowd, discussing the case with townspeople whom she knew only oy sight, rubbing shoulders andtalking with utter strangers; she had walked home at dusk with anew feeling^ of consequence, with her head higher than usual, andwith her heart pounding. As she prepared her supper she had evenventured cautiously to sing a fewnotes—the first in more than a year. Anticipation of seeing her nameIn print once again had affected her so queerly that she slept little dur­ing the night and was up and wait­ ing agitatedly for the rural delivery­man. But when she had read the morntig papers, when she had seennerself tlyough the eyes of those reporters, she had been stunned,stupefied. “The person living nearest to thescene of the tragedy is Mary Holmes, a middle-aged, slatternlycreature who occupies a wretchedhovel and runs a small chicken ranch at the rear of the Ethridgeestate/' the first account ran. Mrs. Holmes had read on dizzily, “Sheis reputed to be a drunken, irre­ sponsible character of violent tem­per and eccentric habits, neverthe­less she uyp surprising intelli­ gence and unmistakable signs ofeducation. She was positive in herstatement------” etc. •The other paper had been equally uncomplimentary. It referred to heras “the goose woman” and it de­ scribed her as "a queer, bedraggled,old hag with the stride of an Ama­ zon and the airs of a queen.” Mary Holmes had torn the papers to bits, and later, when representa­tives of the afternoon papers came to interview her, she had re­fused to talk to them. But the Ethridge case had grown in import­ance; the Chicago papers had rush­ ed men to Westland by the firsttrain and these newcomers wereeven more inquisitive than the localnews-gatherers. This morning, inself-defense, Mary Holmes had wired up her gate and nailed a signto it which read, Keep off. Reporters trespassing on this place will be shot. She sat now inside the open win­ dow of her front room where shecould watch the automobiles coming and going and hear what the occu­pants said when they stopped to stare. at her premises or to readher sign. Evidently the term “goose woman” had stuck, for she heardit over and over again. The man­ner in which it was used, the laugh-. ter and the comment evoked by her*warning sign, were so offensive thatshe turned for comfort to her ginbottle. As to the crime itself, it hadcreated a ^yfttuim* sensation. The murder of a man as prominent asAmos Ethridge was bound to prove Tdnt-page news, for he was more than a figure of local importance.To begin with, he was, or had been, a man of immense wealth—the rich­est man in the whole state—a poli­tical power, and in all probability the next Governor. Moreover, themanner of his slaying, the circum­ stances surrounding it and the evi­dent ferocity of his assassin, hadrendered the crime peculiarly shock­ing. He had been shot to death,riddled with seven bullets, while re­ turning to his home late Thursdaynight. His body had not been dis­ covered until the following morn­ing; then it was found lying in a lane which connected a back roadwith the rear of his handsome es­tate and upon its breast was laid a cross made of two dead twgs whichhad been hurriedly ticc together. Neither the body nor its immediate9ui roundings revealed any clue to the identity or the slayer; nothingindicated any reason whatever for the crime unless a letter found inone of Ethridge’s pockets was anindication. This letter, which, by ine way, was delicately scented, hadconic through the mail and bore rhe local Westland postmark; thewriting upon the envelope was in a woman's hand, and inside was asheet of plain notepaper containing the one word, “Thursday.” Therewas no signature. Why, in the first place, a bachelorwho couM come and go at his will should make use of a narrow, un­lighted back road instead of the brerad, macadam thoroughfarewhich passed his massive . front gates was puzzling; why that crosshad been laid upon the body,* why, in fact, anyone should wish to killAmos Ethridge—all were mattersof pure conjecture. Questions like these lent mystery to the affair, andthat laconic, perfumed note which might have been either a warning oran assignation spiced it with a sug­ gestion of scandal just sufficient tointensify general interest. Mary Holmes dozed in her rock­ing chair. She was aroused by the blare of an automobile horn and by the sound of voices. A car in whichwere several men had stopped be­ fore her house; one member of theparty had stepped down and was trying to disengage the wire fasten­ings of the gate; another, with a press camera over his shoulder, wasgetting out. The man at the gate started to climb the fente, but hewas halted midway by a*challengefrom the house, and looked up todiscover that a tall woman in afaded gingham dress had emerged upon the porch and was facing himthreateningly. She was a vigorous woman, long-limbed and crecff andshe carried her chin high. In spit«; of her ill-fitting garments, her-flat,shapeless shoes, and her untidy liair, there was an air of command abouther and an appearance of some con­ sequence. That which caused thefence climber to freeze into immo­ bility, however, was the sight of ashotgun in her hands. "Hello! You’re Mrs. Holmes, Itake it," he began, cheerily. "Get off that fence!” “Tell her who you are," one of thefellows in the car directed. The photo­ grapher hurriedly opened the claspsof his camera case. "We’re newspaper men from Chic­ago. We’ve been sent down here on the Ethridge case and we—” "If you arc reporters, you can prob­ ably read,” Mrs. Holmes told him."What docs that sign say ?” "Now see here, this is a big storyand it’s getting bigger every hour. You can’t shoot us for trying to getthe facts and—’’ “Can’t I?” "You knew Amos Ethridge, didn’tyou ?” "Perhaps.’’ "You heard the shots, Thursdaynight ?’’ "Did I?" “That’s what you told the local re­ porters. Come on, talk to us. Wewant to get your picture, too." "I’ve been talking to you and youheard what I said." “But, Mrs. Holmes—’’ “You want a picture, do you ? Bah! You’re all alike. Vultures I Jackals!"The Woman’s voice rose in sudden anger. "You read what these West­land papers said about me, didn't vou? Well, get out!" "Mr. Ethridge used this road a good deal, I understand. At night, I mean?You probably saw or heard his car that night? .All we want is a briefstatement from you." Unobtrusively, the speaker shifted his weight, liftedhimself further over the fence. "We city men have an altogether differenttheory from these—” The woman on the porch cocked her shotgun and raised it, saying, grimly: ■ "I shall count three." "On, come now I Don’t be foolish.” "One! Twol" “Go ahead, Jimi" urged the cam­era man. "She can’t pull anything like that. If she shoots you, it’llmake a corking picture.” The trespasser now had one leg over the top strand of barbed wireand he steadied himself upon a post —neither a graceful position nor oneof great stability. He was about to kt himself down inside the yardwhen Mrs. Holmes cried: "Three I” Simultaneously she fired. The drygrass and weeds beneath the teeter­ ing figure exploded into a dustycloud as the charge of bird shot mowed a path through it. With ayell, the man flung himself back­ ward, leaving a fragment of histrousers leg upon the fence. He picked himself up and shook a fistat the woman, shouting: “You damned old harpy! I’ll have you arrested for thatl What d'youmean, anyhow—?” He paused as he heard the omi­nous click of the second barrel, andhurriedly backed closer to the car. The photographer made haste tofollow him. "Don’t let me catch you climbingmy fence again. I keep this gun for hawks, but it will do as well forbuzzards!" Mrs. Holmes’ voice was harsh and strident; she appeared to .tower higher as her rage mounted.“Poke fun at me, will you? Well, vou’ve got something nastv to writenow, so be as nasty as you can. You want to know who killed AmosEthridge, do you? Rats! You don't care who killed him. All you wantis to choke your filthy papers with scandal and lies and dirt. It's allybu can write, all you can thinkabout. Lies! Dirt!" She had quitelost control of herself now andbroke into an incoherent torrent of invective. She checked it only whenthe objects of her wrath hadslammed the car door and the ma­ chine had rolled away. When she was alone she strode back into her house and stood thefowling-piece in its corner, then tramped about the living room, herhead high, her back straight, herdeep bosom heaving. So! They’d get a story out of her, would they?Publish her picture! Use her for a bit of local color, ridicule her,abuse her! Well, she could give them back as good as they couldsend iruthc line of personal abuse.The scum! The blackguards! She •••■is sorry they had fled so swiftly— v-hile her mouth was still so fulland her tongue so bitter. For once in their lives they had heard some­ thing which they could remember.They knew now that she was nocommon country lout, no mere “goose woman." As she reflected more calmly upon the encounter she felt somepride in the way. she had carriedit off. It had becn*hcr scene: she had held the center of the stage *and she had playfed it well-r-as well as anybody could play such a scene,upon short notice. After all, only an artist can rise to dramaticheights; none but the finished actorcan portray sincere emotion. She, “a bedraggled old hag!" Old. atforty-five! “A drunken, irresponsi­ ble character of violent temper!”She wished .now that she had shof that reporter in the legs. The next day. not only the localWestland papers, but also the big 1 Chicago dailies, carried amusing andhighly colored accounts of that sh otgu n encounter, and Mrs.Holmes derived a grim enjoyment* from reading them. Again -shefl: red into fury at the, uncompli­mentary things they said about her; but indignation is a fire that quicklyburns itself out and it gave her some satisfaction to read of her vic­tory. This satisfaction increased asshe reread the stories. After a while she experienced an actualthrill at realizing that she had be­ come a figure of importance in thebiggest news sensation of the dav &nd the people from Maine to Cali­fornia were reading about her. Theysaw the name "Mary Holmes." And after twenty years! She wonderedit any of. thtm would rememberhaving seen it before.

Save The Children Fund Makes Appeal Urgent representations have been made to the British Save the Child­ ren Fund on behalf of the children of Czechoslovakia. Its Administra­ tor at Prague states that, while an estimate of numbers is at present impossible, the majority of those in the country around Prague are in grave need and immediate help is necessary. The Czechoslovak author­ ities are faced with an overwhelming tank and it is imperative that gener­ ous help for the children should be secured as speedily as possible. In this appeal the Save the Children Fund is associated with Lord Mayor of London’s national appeal for relief in Czechoslovakia, and the Czecho­ slovak Minister in London, Dr. Jan Masaryk, has already expressed his gratitude for the effort and what he hopes it may achieve, in a letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury, a Pat­ ron of the Save the Children Fund. Canada shares in great thankful­ ness for deliverance from the night­ mare of war and in deep sympathy., and admiration for the people of Czechoslovakia, so sorely stricken and so courageous, dignified and r»- strained in these dark days of sacri­ fice and surrender. Canadians will surely be glad to share in the re­ sponse to a plea for their help. Contributions may be sent direct to the Lord Mayor London’s Czech Refuge Fund, Mansion House, Lon­ don, E.C., 4, or they will be trans­ mitted without expense if sent to R. J. Dilworth, Esq., Honorary Treas­ urer of the Canadian Committee of the Save the Children’s Fund, 588 Huron Street, Toronto, 5. ONLYJHE BEST ThU outstanding triumph laproof of quality.

Among the things to remember when shopping for a coat, is that fur sleeves or fur-trimmed sleeves are a distinguished feature of this year’s models. Fur vestees and fiat, usually banded, arrangements of furs are also distinctly 1939. As usual, fashion gives us our choice of silhouettes in coats—either fitted or flared. There are also some dirndl-inspired models, but these are cnly for the young and reedlike and, also, are suggested only when one can afford more than one coat, since it’s uncertain how long the dirndl fever will last. Fur yokes are a promising entry for coat favor. Collars, though usu­ ally higher, also include many stole and shawl arrangements. Tho well-dressed woman who chooses a cloth, fur-trimmed coat is going to clamor for a smart muff and for a hat with or of matching fur to complete the picture. There are many good-looking coats without fur—coats completed by a tandcum of silver fox or something of the sort, which one may wear or not, as one pleases. Beaver, mink, skunk, and many other furs, are in­ troduced this season to offset the growing habit of selecting either silver fox or Persian lamb. The brisk demand for unfurred, reversible coats continues. It is particularly active at shops catering to the young crowd. ■Colored coats are important, but counting all the offered colors to­ gether, they still are outnumbered by black. The dress that is a perfect back­ ground for jewels is the dress to keep an eye on this fall. There must be a definite link be­ tween jewelry or ornaments and the dress with which they are worn. If you are on the sentimental side and intend going in for old-fashioned trinkets, as well as snoods and hoop skirts, don’t overlook the decorative value of a locket suspended on a narrow ribbon. 1939 Outlook Preliminary work has begun on the preparation of the Agricultural Situ­ ation and Outlook for 1939. This an­ nual review of the position of Can­ adian agriculture is issued jointly by the Dominion Departments of Agriculture and Trade and Com­ merce nt the beginning of each year, and is designed to assist farmers in planning their business operations. s\ AVON Mr. .Ralph Shaw of Toronto, was a week-end guest of his parents,Rev.
