Well KnownIn Ingersoll District.John Henry Fishback, aged 44,’Vestminster Township farmer, wasknocked from his bicycle on the Belmont road, Saturday night, Jan. 7th, and fatally injured by a car whose driver is alleged to have driven away. Fishback died an hour later in Victoria Hospital, London. Police immediately launched a wide-spread hunt for the automobile which ended only when they were notified by a London lawyer, that the driver would surrender before county police court opened Monday morning. Fishback was found lying on the Belmont road a short distance south of the second concession of West­ minster, by a trio of Belmont and Harrietsville residents, about 9 o’clock. They came upon him only a few minutes after he had been struck. Near by, the bicycle he had been riding was found. Between the third and fourth concession of the township, a mile couth of tKe fatality, the thrqe who found Mr. Fishback were passed by a southbound car with one headlight out. It was presumed it was the death car. While police under the direction of High Constable Ben Milligan, were spreading a net for the driver, a coroner’s inquiry was ordered. A preliminary hearing was held at the EvansQfuneral home at noon Sunday and adjournment was then ordered by Coroner Dr. Arthur Smith of Dorchester, until January 19. From the marks on the road, it appeared Mr. Fishback had been cycling south a short distance south of the second concession, when he was overtaken by a car travelling in the same direction. He suffered head injuries which brought about his death at 10.15, almost exactly an hour after he was admitted to the hospital. Travelling nSrth, Francis Faulds, of Belmont, with Murray Hambly, also of Belmont, and Frances Secord of Harrietsville, as passengers, came upon the injured farmer lying or the road. Others were shortly on the scene and medical aid and police were summoned. The fatality occurred only about a mile from Mr. Fishback’s home. Mr. Fishback was widely known as a farmer and a war veteran. He had served overseas with the Wes­ tern Ontario Regiment C.E.F., and was a member of Belmont Branch, Canadian Legion. He was also a past master of Nilestown Lodge, No. 345, A. F. & A. M., and a member of Nilestown United Church. Surviving are his wife, formerly Miss Jackson, Harrietsville; two sons, Howard and W at home; two brothers, James of Dereham Town- ship, and Earl of Timmins; four sis­ ters, Mrs. C. Scott, Mrs. A. Gregg and Mrs. H. MacBeth all of Ingersoll, and Mrs. Mote, Aylmer, and his father, John Fishback of Avon. The funeral was held from the Evans’ Funeral Home, Hamilton Road, London, on Tuesday afternoon at 2.30 o’clock. The service was in charge of Rev. James Scobie of First United Church, of Westminster. In­ terment was made in the Nilestown Cemetery. DR. C. A. OSBORNK1WANIS PRESIDENT1939 Officers Installed ByPast District Lieutenant-Governor, F. Earl Johnston.Kiwanian Elmer J.

Daniel.Culminating weeks of ground workand planning on the part of a com­mittee of younger business and pro­fessional men of the town, the Ing­ersoll Y’s Men’s Club held its offi­cial organization meeting at the Ing­ersoll Inn on Wednesday-evening last, adopting a constitution in line with International Y’sdom, and elect­ ing officers and directors. The dinner gathering was the third in a series of formal meetings, the first being held late last Novem­ ber when decision to organize was definitely made, and a continuations committee appointed. Max Poole, provisional chairman, presided over Wednesday evening's gathering, and in the election of officers was chosen president of the club with the fol­ lowing elected to other positions: First Vice-President—Joseph Fos­ ter. Second Vice-President—Dr. J. R. Rogers. Third Vice-President — Robert Wark. Secretary—Ralph Beck. Treasurer—Gordon Waters. The report of the nominating com­ mittee was presented by Bert Carr and seconded by Arthur Angood. Balloting for directors resulted as follows: Dr. J. W. Rowsom, Harold Uren, Ewart Bartley, Bert Carr, Arthur Angood and Maurice Hughes. Previous to the business session, an inspiring address was given by Rev. C. D. Daniel, former Y’s man from the Peterborough club. Mr. Daniel chose for his subject, “A Chal­ lenge to Service,” and in an ex­ tremely interesting manner wove into his address the aims of the In­ ternational Constitution, which was subsequently adopted by the gather­ ing. The speaker dwelt on the Y’s Men’s slogan, which states that every privilege enjoyed creates a-cor- responding duty; and he outlined the six objectives of Y’sdom which are based on service, stating that Y’s Men attack community problems at the point of greatest need. It was pointed out by the speaker that the fundamentals of Y’sdom are built on the principles of Him who was the greatest ser­ vant of all. Present at the head table as guests were R. G. Start and A. J. Kennedy, president and vice-presi­ dent respectively of the Ingersoll Community “Y”; Alex. Yule and Warwick Marshall, vice-president and secretary of the Ingersoll Ki­ wanis Club. Other “Y” directors were also present as guests. The Y’s men’s quartette, composed of Bert and Sid Bagnall, Jack Mayberry and Laurie Sommer rendered several se­ lections with Ewart Bartley at the piano. The club plans meeting regularly every second week. , ------------------|------------- Former Resident Dies At Owen Sound Word has be6n received here of the death at (0wen Sound of a form­ er Ingersoll resident in the person of Thomas Kenny, who for many years conducted a harness shop in Ingersoll.

McDermott Passes In His 85th Year Ingersoll lost <an esteemed resident on Sunday evening, January Sth, in the passing of Michael Joseph Mc­ Dermott, at his home, 186 John street. The late Mr. McDermott, who was in his 85th year, was bom at Paris, Ontario,* and had been a resi­ dent of Ingersoll for over 50 years. For many years he was engaged in the cooperage business and was also a valued employee for years at the Ingersoll Packing Company. Deceased had taken an active part in community affairs, having served as a member of the Town CounciJ and as chairman of the Separate School Board. He was a member of the Church of the Sacred Heart and the League of the Sacred Heart. Left to mourn the passing ofz a dearly beloved father are two daughters, Mrs. F. Boles at home and Mrs. Peter Shannon, West Oxford. Also surviving is one sister, Mrs. C. iHanlon, Toronto, and four grand­ children, Mary, Wilfred and Joseph Bol«!f and Yvonne Shannon, to all of whom the sympathy of scores of friends is extended in their sad be­ reavement. The funeral was held from the family, residence, John street, on Wednesday morning, to the Church of the Sacred Heart, where requiem mass was celebrated at 8 o’clock, by Rev. Father A. Fuerth. The service was largely attended and there were many mass cards and floral tributes in’evidence. Interment was made in the R. C. Cemetery, service at the grave being conducted by Rev. Father A. ScalisL The pallbearers were Messrs. O. Hughes, James Hanlon1, W. P. Anglin, Dennis Howe, Michael Shannon and James Shan­ non. Harold Wilson Is Cited As Example Refuse* To Compete In Race* on Sabbath, Say* Rev. Don. Cameron. The following is taken from Mon­ day’s issue of the London Free Press: “Harold Wilson, the Ingersoll motor boat speed champion, was eulogized Sunday morning at the Gilbert Bible Class of St. James’ (Westminster) Anglican Church, London, for his refusal as a Canad­ ian Anglican to race on Sunday though in a foreign country. The speaker was Rev. Don. Camtron, pastor of the Egerton Street Baptist Church, formerly of Ingersoll, whose address was considered particularly significant in view of the reported drive at Toronto, for more or less wide open Sunday. “Harold Wilson," Mr. Cameron said, “showed that while he has speed in sport competition, he also has control as a Christian. And the stand he took reflects credit not only on the Anglican Church, of which he is a member, but on Canada’s best young manhood as a whole.” German’* Taxi Service—Phone S5S.

VEALEProprietor and EditorPHONES:—Tribune Office, 13 - Residence, 442AMember ofThe Canadian Weekly Newspapers* AssociationTHURSDAYJ JANUARY 12th, 1939We Are All CanadiansThere seems to be a tendency on the part of someof our citizens to ibscriniinate against people fromother communities who come seeking employment orthe opportunity to engage in business or industry. How widespread this tendency is, and how far it serves its avowed purpose of benefiting the “old" residents and businesses of the communities which discourage the inflow of new blood we have no means of knowing. But in even the slightest degree it seems like a dangerous and un-British trend. There have been so many forces at work to break down the rights of individuals that this trend may be nothing more serious than a mere expression. But if carried out to its logical conclusion, no one who Jias not been a resident of the country long enough to acquire a voting residence would be permitted to work, in public or private employment or to operate a business. The strength of Canada has been derived from the migratorj’ traits of its people. We have become a great nation, because we are the largest area of land anywhere in the world in which there are no tariff or other artificial barriers, to prevent any citizen from travelling at will over the whole country and working at his trade or profession wherever he can find opportunity. No Canadian has ever had to show his passport and identification papers whenever he leaves his home to visit another city or province, as practically every European has to do. This liberty of movement and freedom to seek and seize opportunity is one of the most precious liberties which the Canadian people enjoy. It ought not to be curtailed on any absurd theory that people who come from other parts of the nation are “foreign­ ers,” and that their rights of residence and labor are inferior to those of any other Canadian, when­ ever they live and vote. All the wars and rumors of wars under which Europe lives in a constant state of terror, have their roots in precisely that narrow state of mind. Visiting AH Canada One of the greatest events in Canada during 1939 will be the visit of Their Majesties King George and Queen Elizabeth. The voyage across the ocean, their journey from the Atlantic to the Pacific, their every step, will make the headlines of all newspapers in the Empire and in most democracies. Naturally such an august occasion'entails a vast amount of careful preparation on the part of the Federal and Provincial governments and lesser public bodies. Originally, it was intended Their Majesties would pay ah official visit to Ottawa only, but on the decision of the King himself, the tour will in­ clude all nine Provinces. The train carrying Their Majesties will pass through Ingersoll on the morning of June 7th, en route from London to Niagara Falls, and it is under­ stood an effort will be made to have the train make a brief stop at the local C.N.R. station in order that the people of the Ingersoll district may see the King and Queen. No private invitations will be accepted by the Royal party. The entire visit will be planned care­ fully in advance and while every city, town, village and hamlet in the country would like to have that community included in the itinerary, it is obvious all cannot be so honored. No gifts will be accepted by the King and Queen from individuals, organizations or public bodies, fol­ lowing usual procedure. Several times already appeals have been made by authorities to Canadians -who are urging to unite in casing as much as possible the burdens of the long and arduous journey. And that Canadians will re­ spond to this apj0*l we feel certain. Red Cross Blood Donors One of the most important developments of mod­ em surgery is the extent to which transfusion of » blood from one person to another has been found useful in saving lives and treating various serious diseases. Experience has shown that it is not safe to put into anybody’s veins the blood of anyone else who hap­ pens to be willing to come to the aid of the sufferer. Not only must the doctors be certain that the blood > so given is free from nny contamination by disease9 or heredity, but it must be of the same structural composition or “type” as that of the recipient. In emergencies, as when the victim of any accident is bleeding to death, there is no time to make the elaborate tests necessary, even though there may happen to be someone among’the bystanders who is willing to give a few ounces of blood to save the life of another. The large hospitals have lists of “blood donors” who can be called upon in emergen­ cies, and so are able to save many lives which would otherwise be lost, *■ To make such a service available to physicians and hospitals everywhere is the latest service being initia­ ted by the Red Cross. Local chapters which are will­ ing to do so and have the co-operation of their com­ munity physicians, take the responsibility for enroll­ ing volunteer, donors who are willing*to give blood without fee for indigent or semi-indigent parties as well as in emergencies. j Following the, example of the British and other European Red Associations, several chapters 1 have1" already started such a service on this continent. This seems like a peculiarly appropriate extension of the wide philanthropic functions of the Red Cross. The, New Car Market Ralph L. Lee, public relations official of General Motors, reports that of every 1,000 persons, 160 are car owners, only 80 buy new cars. They pur­ chase new cars every four years oTP4he average, however, so each year 20 in each 1,000 people areprospects for new cars. The statistics evidently relate to the United States, or poesijily to the U. S. and Canada together. In this country there are only 100 cars, exclusive of busses and trucks, to each 1,000 persons. The bureau of statistics at Ottawa reports the sale during 1937 of 413,043 motor vehicles, of which 141,881 werenew and 271,162 used. That is, about two used carsare sold for each purchase of a new one.On the basis of last year's retail sales of new carsin Canada, it would appear that about 13 persons ineach 1,000 of population may be considered prospectsfor new cars annually. What the average period ofuse of a new car by the first owner may be statisticsdo not indicate, but as withdrawals from use lastyear in Canada are estimated at only 82,088 it is evi­dent that the average life of a car in various owner­ships is pretty high.Another thing Mr. Lee of General Motors Iras dis­covered is that the average new car buyer starts toshop only about two weeks before making an actualpurchase, “thereby complicating the selling job.” It would seem, therefore that the car which has been brought to his attention most prominently in con­ sistent advertising during the time that he was only mildly interested will receive first attention when the potential buyer gets down to business. Danger of Fatigue One out of every 10 persons in the United States is under medical and institutional care for mental illness. That’s the pronouncement of Dr. John Thompson, of Harvard University, before the Amer­ ican Association for the Advancement of Science. And the reason for this largely is fatigue. People allow themselves to become too fatigued. They fail to ease physical and mental strain when they should. The nerves and reflexes of humans are being worn down. The proportion so affected is larger in cities than in towns the size of Ingersoll. Excessive physical work is bad, but too much mental work is worse, says the scientist. Strangely enough, the cure for a person who has become par­ tially insane because of fatigue is not complete rest, but activity along other lines. “Diversions suitable to the patient’s temperament and exercise conforming to his ability are often more effective than keeping him in bed.” However, to avoid becoming mentally ill, rest is necessary and essential. To miss one's rest daily is dangerous. Avoid Thin Ice This is the time of year when hundreds, yes thous­ ands, of skaters, crowd open sheets of ice. Wc note with approval the increase in the numbers who pre­ fer to skate on the smaller, but safer rinks that have been constructed during the past few years by the BoarJ of Education on the school grounds. It may not be so much fun to be confined to the smeller sheets of ice, but it is safer if there has been no prolonged spell of cold weather. Even in mid-winter we have mild spells. The ice on the surface of the ponds may become so thin as to make skating dangerous. Let us have a fatality-free winter by seeing to it that the children skate only on ice where no danger* of a tragedy occurring exists. Lengthening Days One of the most pleasant of all occupations is that of contemplating the beauties and the joys of Spring. When the shortest'day of the year, which marks the advent of Winter, has come and gone, it is permiss- able t^give the imagination a little freedom of rein and to anticipate pleasantly what lies immediately beyond the snow and the sleet and the freezing tem­ perature of the next two months. From this point on, the days will lengthen and with every adde4l moment of daylight we will be brought a little closer to the daffodils and tulips, new grass with a sprirjding of violets, to buds and blossoms. It is pleasant to shift the thought process forward a bit so that they will run into the delightful setting of April and May. TH E D O C T O R Tells The Story by W. E. AUGHINBAUGH, M.D. MODERN HOMES J During the past few years, architects, following suggestions from medical men, have begun to design homes and apartments, so constructed that they will do much to benefit the human race physically and at* the same time practically eliminate many, diseases which now cause untold suffering and the expenditure of enormous sums of money yearly. For example, physicians know that germs love corners in which they can hide and from which they may attack individuals, being conveyed to their victim through the medium of dust, blown about the house ■ or room if window or doors are opened. * To overcome this, modern rooms are now being constructed with curved corners which give dust and germs scant opportunity to remain therein. The smoke from factory chimneys and the dust from the street ultimately becomes ladened with dan­ gerous bacteria which are frequently inhaled an<j/re- sult in common colds, influenza, pneumonia and num­ erous grave diseases. By providing Romes with compressed air outlets and using the proper appar­ atus, these germs can be driven out of the rooms. Bare, smooth floors, without cracks or corners, offer little, if any, asylum to these antagonistic bugs. By air-conditioning rooms, windows need not be opened to draw dust into the house, yet the air may be continually kept fresh and at the right tempera­ ture Roth winter arid summer. Ozone generators have been installed in many homes and this super-oxygen is particularly destructive to all microbes, and ab­ sorbs carbonic acid while, at the same time, it makes inert the dangerous dust with its bacteria ladened tenants. • Solariums, provided with glass walls,' permitting only the passage of the ultra-violet rays—“the life­ giving element of sunshine”—says Dr. Philippe Dally, will add to the comfort of living and at thesame time permit the admission of light rays which. - the common window glass now in common use posi­ tively shuts out Electrical refrigerators in kitchens provided with modem machinery to wash and dry dishes and silver­ ware, will also do much to reduce illness from un­ clean dishes and tainted foods. With sanitary bath and toilet equipment and the lessening of street noises, there can be no question but that the men and women of the future will live longer, better, and with more comfort than those of today. TODAY and 'TOMORROWby Frank Barker StockbridgeTAXATION ... growingNobody has yet discovered a wayto make taxes painless. Politiciansmake a great point of tolling thepublic that the taxes which theylevy do not come out of the “littleman’s” pocket, but are paid by the. rich and the great corporations.Nothing could be further from the truth. We all pay taxes, whether we know it or not, and the poorer we are the higher the proportion of our income goes into taxes. Some sorts of taxes everybody will agree are necessary. Nobody objects much to taxation to main­ tain schools, hospitals and public services such as water supply, paved roads, police and fire departments. Governments must collect money fiom everybody to maintain an army and navy for national defense. But the tendency of both the Federal government and the Pro­ vincial governments and govern­ ments of municipalities is to impose heavier and heavier taxes for things which we could get along without. I saw a careful estimate recently, made by disinterested experts, that more than a fifth of all the money that passes through the hands* of everybody goes for taxes, of one sort or another. That means that you and I w’ork more than ten weeks every year for national, state and local governments. I think that is too high a price to pay for what we get. Many other people are beginning to ask what they get for their tax money. I think a change has got to come. GASOLINE diversion z One highly improper use of the taxing power, which many provinces and states have adopted, is to tax the gasoline consumed by motorists and then use the funds for other purposes than highway improve­ ment and maintenance. The gas tax is one of the easiest and surest to collect^'" Drivors pay it willingly because they want roads built bettor and kept bettor. When the money goes to pay for other things they have a right to be sore. My notion is that no special taxes should be collected except for special purposes, and that any public official who diverts them to other purposes should go to jail. There are far too many politicians out of jail who ought to be behind bars, anyway. One of the weaknesses of our democratic form of govern­ ment is that we have become too tolerant of political graft and cor­ ruption.• • ■ LOUISIANA reduction I take off my hat to the people of Louisiana. When the question was put to them at the November elect­ ion whether a tax which was hurt­ ing a big industry should be re- . duced or continued they voted tort to one to reduce it. That is plain common sense; and when such questions are put up to the people generally they show more common sense than the politicians give them credit for. Some years ago the state imposed a tax of $2 per ton on sulphur ex­ tracted by the Freqport Sulphur Co, fr.om a ^Louisiana mine. At the same time the state, started a drive to get industries to locate in Louisiana. The sulphur company showed offic­ ials that the $2 tax would drive them out of the state, for competing sul­ phur mines in Texas only paid a $1.03 tax. Louisiana production of sulphur was falling off while? that of Texas was increasing. , The legislature saw the point, voted to lower the sulphur tax, and to clinch it submitted the new tax rate, same as Texas pays, to the people a constitutional amend­ ment. Result: the sulphur people are spending half a million dollars on expanding' their plant and put­ ting hundreds of people to work, which is worth more to Louisiana than the added tax would come to. • • • GOVERNMENT . . . danger. No government,is a good govern­ ment unless*it does just as little governing as is necessary to enable the people who live under it to gov­ ern their own lives and affairs. Think that over. There has been growing up in the world, particularly in Europe the idea of Government as an impersonal, paternal institution whose function is to take care of everybody and relieve the individuals who live un­ der it of their personal reponsibit- ities. In a very real sense,’ any govern- , ment is the enemy of the people. Unless it is constantly watched, crit­ icized and rebuked by the people, even the government of a democ­ racy tends to become oppressive.When the people accept every actof government without questionthey are in danger of losing theirliberty. For all history provesthat once men are given power overothers they begin to seek and seizemore and more power.“AS A WOMAN SEES IT”— By Arabella —LET YOUR YEAS BE YES It is said that our language has undergone a constant change since ita beginning, with new words being added and others discarded. Not onlyi that, but the status of words is changed with time so that those of 10|W degree become exalted. All that is part of the process of life and is accepted as such. But when a perfectly good word is discarded for a sound resembling a grunt, it seems deplorable. A story has been told, not a very elegant one, that Satan was once seen running along the road, carry­ ing an Englishman in one hand, an Irishman in the other, and a Scotch­ man in his mouth. Someone saw him and asked him if he was going home. As he could not reply other­ wise, he simply muttered, “uhu.” That is supposed to have been the origin of an expression now used by ninetyvnine out of a hundred child­ ren. Education is a long and costly process, but it hardly seems unrea­ sonable to expect a little refinement to be included with it. Much time and attention are also given to en­ couraging neatness in dress, which is all to the goojj. But it will be a misfortune if we descend to sloven­ liness of speech, for it will curtail cur ability to think, and if we can­ not thnk, we shall have little cause for satisfaction in life. It is not enough to say that children will learn better as they grow’ oluer. “Yes,” is as easy to learn as "uhu”, | so why saddle them with a make­ shift? There is a vast difference oc­ tween simplicity of speech and crudeness. ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE SHUT-INS A great deal of time and talent were expended in arranging the various Christmas concerts in town, and it seems a pity that they should so soon be over, and to a certain extent, forgotten. So we make the suggestion that they be repeated for the benefit of those who a're unable to go out to see them. At Westminster Hospital in Lon­ don, there are ex-service men still suffering from physical and mental scars of war, men who in four years gave a life’s energy, so that they are cur care now, and depend on us for a little diversion from the routine of institutional life. They would form a very apprecia-. tive audience for any group of en­ tertainers, and the performers .would find a well-equipped hall with every­ thing to add to their comfort, such as raised platform, stage lights, dressing rooms, etc. Owing to the/ difficulty of trans­ portation, it might not be feasible for a number of people to go, but two or three cars could carry suffi­ cient talent to give pleasure for an evening or a Sunday afternoon, to some whose only home for the past twenty years has been-a hospital.

He stood in the vestry fingering his collar and wondering if his hair was tidy. He noticed there was no mirror on the wall. “Could you get me a glass?” he whispered to the verger. “I’ll do my best,” said the verger. The young man waited patiently. Presently the verger returned with something under his coat. The choir boys wAtehed the scene interestedly. “I nianaged to get a whole bottle,” said the verger, “by using your name.” “Here’s one name on the commit­ tee that I never heard of.” “Oh, that’s probably the person who actually does the work.” THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JAN. 12, 1939 Page 3CONSTIPATIONISA TRAITOR • Constipation sours you on the world and turns the world against you.

She bad taken Jacobalxiut with her a good deal this pastweek, not merely as an escort, but also because he displayed such patheticeagerness to comfort and to protect her.

Hazel felt old Jacob’s Ixmyfingers upon her arm and heard him mutter some scriptural phrase ofthanksgiving. "I'm going to tell you the wholetruth and I want you to print it.

Taylor, manager of ourlocal Dominion store, announced inan exclusive interview with The Ing­ersoll Tribune, plans that DominionStores Limited have completed fora Chain-wide store staff contest.In a letter accompanying an illus­trated portfolio, announcing thecontest, Mr. J. W. Horsey, President of Dominion Stores Limited, said: “On January 3rd, we are launching the biggest contest in our history! Fifteen store managers and their wives will visit the New York World’s Fair at our expense to see the wonders of the world of Tomor­ row, and to have the time of their lives. Besides these grand prizes, there are cash awards for the stuff of each of the 15 winning stores, and for the entire staff, (Manager in­ cluded) of 50 other stores. No “rule of thumb" or mechanical method of adjudging contestants will be followed, but a human, sym­ pathetic, and intelligent considera­ tion of "people” and “perform­ ances” will be the criterion.” The first 15 prizes of trips to the New York World’s Fair available to the Company’s store managers, have caused much favorable contr n;ent among the Retail trade as well as among employees of Dominion Stores since the first prizes, offering as they do free trips with all expen­ ses paid to the winning managers’ wives as well, represent a great de­ parture from the usual procedure of prize distribution. The 15 fortunate store managers and their wives will visit the Can­ adian Building and will see won­ ders front every corner of the Globe—novel entertainments, beau­ ty, color, music, television, and at­ tendance at famous radio broadcasts are among the many features which will thrill these special Canadian visitors. All their expenses will be paid, luxury trains and fine hotel accommodations will add to their pleasures. In addition to paid ex­ penses and the extra week’s holidays, the 15 winners will receive extra spending money. 65 of the Company’s stores will share in the many prizes ranging ftom $25.00 to $100.00 in cash. Those managers who, for any reason, do not take the trip, will get the extra holiday and the cash equivalent of the trip. The final judges of the contest are J. W. Horsey, President; I. W. Burdick, Merchandising Manager; K. L. Carter, of McDonald, Currie and Company, Chartered Account­ ants; A. B. Watt, Montreal Man­ ager; J. E. Hendricks, Chief Super­ intendent, Francois Faure, Director. Onion Syrup For Colds If you are anywhere around '40! the term “onion* syrup” will'mean something to you. When you were a child, your mother made it by fvreswing sugared sliced onions be­ tween two dinner plates, with a flat­ iron on them. You had to take it in a big tablespoon two or three limes a day. It was for your cold and it certainly did the business. For thousands of years onion syrup has been a panacea for a bad cold. It is one of the universal folk medi­ cines that have persisted into this day of science. And now science has surrendered. The scientists say that onions contain some chemicals which relieve the irritation and in some way kill the bugs that cause bad colds. Mother knew best.

Theso facts, shown in a population study of 19 countries made by the Statistic­ ians of the Metropolitan Life Insur­ ance Company reveal that the United States is not in such-a fav­ orable position. Girls bom in the United States today will not reproduce their own numbers in the next generation if present conditions continue. In fact, according to prevailing mortality and fertility, 100 girls boro today will in the course of time have only 95 daughters and 90 granddaughters, and this in time will inevitably lead to a dwindling population. This is a long way from the conditions pre­ vailing in the early years of the United States. If the conditions of fertility and mortality than prevail­ ing had continued unchanged, 100 new born girls would in the course of time have had 223 daughters and 497 granddaughters. That an excess of births over deaths is still shown in the present conditions is .due to a relative excess in the pro­ portion of women in childbearing ages today, which results from high birth rates in the past. This excess, however, is a temporary condition which is gradually disappearing. The net rcp^oductivity of Sweden and Norway touches the lowest levels of any of the nations studied, while contrary to generaTTielief, -the rate for France is more favorable than that for England and Wales.
