He reviewed several resolutions considered at a meeting of the pro­ vincial executive recently. Some of the resolutions pfbposed that the toll of five cents per pound be re­ duced, but as each county receives one quarter of the tolls from, its area, it was felt better to leave the toll as it was.

WINTER PLUNGE COSTLYTO ‘HUMAN SEAL”Krikor Hekimian, the 24 year-oldArmenian-Canadian, who has beentermed “Tarzan of the Icefields” and the “Human Seal”, made his appear­ ance in Ingersoll as scheduled on Sat­ urday afternoon and took a dip in the icy waters of the Thames river, near the, Thames street bridge, be­ fore hundreds who lined both sides of the river bank. After his demon- tration he was placed under arrest and taken to the police office where he was released on >40 bail to appear in court on Tuesday morning. Mr. Hekimian appeared before Magistrate Hawkshaw on Tuesday morning in court which was held in the town hall in order to accommo­ date the large crowd of spectators. The swimmer faced three charges, “swifhming within the town limits between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m., “con­ trary to a town by-law of an ancient vintage,” “soliciting alms,” and “ob­ structing a police officer.” The accused at first pleaded not guilty but on the advice of his lawyer changed his plea in the charge of obstructing a police officer. On this charge the Magistrate imposed a fine of >10.00, plus >16.50 costs, amount­ ing-in all to >26.50. Tuesday night after 9 o’clock, Mr. Hekimian gave another demonstra­ tion of bathing in frigid water, by taking a dip in the Thames, in the same hole where he made his plunge on Saturday.

This appearance is being sponsored by the Ingersoll Business Men’s Association and de­ tails arc announced in an advertise­ ment elsewhere in this issue. S. A.

R. VEALEProprietor and EditorPHONES.—Tribune Office, 13 - Residence, «2AMember ofThe Canadian Weekly Newspapers’ AssociationTHURSDAY, JANUARY 26th, 1939Grimsby Independent Suspends Publication Last week’s issue of the Grimsby Independent carried this announcement: “With regret we are compelled to make the foregoing announcement. During the past year we have endeavored to increase our advertising patronage to a degree commensurate with financial success in this department. Every aim of this newspaper has been for the benefit of local business and the community in which we live, and if we have failed to be of service to the extent of de­ sired public confidence we have failed in our sincere purpose. The cost of producing a weekly newspaper today is considerable. The success of such an enter­ prise is based entirely upon the local patronage it receives. If that patronage does not extend to a certain point, it appears evident there is not a fav­ orable impression that the paper be continued. We will welcome the opportunity to again publish the Inde­ pendent at any time we can be assured of sufficient patronage to guarantee our efforts in such an under­ taking. Should a decision be reached within one month to resume publication, all subscriptions paid-in­ advance will be advanced the time of suspension. If not, a refund will be made, due notice of which will be sent to subscribers. We desire to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to all who have ex­ tended to us their advertising patronage, and solicit from them a continuance of business for our job printing department. We also wish to pay tribute to our entire staff, past and present, for their most loyal and efficient service and regret we are forced to make the decision to discontinue the paper at this time.” It would be regrettable indeed if our neighboring town of Grimsby were to find itself without a news- CJper. because the community could not hope to maintain its place among the live progressive towns of Ontario without a mouthpiece to keep it on the map. The cities are growing all over the province, pulling from their respective surrounding districts, and the towns must perforce strive all the harder to maintain their identity. They have what is to them a tremendous investment in street paving, sidewalks, sewers, sanitary water, supply, fire protection, schools, churches, electricity, gas, and scores of other sidelines that mean the comfort and convenience of their citizens, and the local paper is invaluable as a sponsor to see that all these interests are kept up to standard, as well as to foster a spirit of civic pride and co-opfration in community effort. Grimsby's overhead certainly has to be paid, either by the population as it stands today, or by the materially decreased population that will surely result if the publicity a local paper gives is lacking. To all of which in the most friendly spirit, I direct the earnest attention of not only Grimsby’s business and pro­ fessional interests, but of its citizens generally— Dunnville Chronicle. South American nation and form an alliance withone of the European dictators?In Latin America control of governments is asoften accomplished by revolution as by votes. TheUnited States recognises governments which havegained power by military mothoda. Suppose one ofthose South American revolutions should put thefriends of Hitler or Mussolini in the seat of power.What could be done about it?Those are questions to think about when we hearall the talk that is going around about building up anarmy and navy so that we can protect our coasts. It** Getting Warmer • This year, while all of Europe is experiencing the coldest Winter in 80 years, it is cheerful news which scientists bring us that the world is actually getting warmer. Many of us have suspected that for a long time. Who has not heard his grandfather or some other elderly person remark that “Winters ain’t like they used to be when I was a boy.” It was the fashion for a long time to dismiss such reminiscences with the philosophical comment. But now that research into changes in the climate has become more scientific, the men who study such things are beginning to agree that in the northern hemisphere, at least, the climate is getting warmer. The records of the United States Weather Bureau run back only to 1871, but local Records have been kept for more than a hundred years in numerous cities. Recent studies of such records show that Boston now has the kind of winters that Baltimore had a centry ago. The Winter of 1837-38 used to be spoken of by old New- Englanders as “eighteen-hundred-and-froze- to-death.” Temperatures got so low that the moisture remaining on the trees froze and burst the tree­ trunks with a noise like musket fire all over the woodlands. It is not likely that there will ever be another Winter so severe as that. And it is not likely that anyone now living will pick strawberries in January on the shores of Hudson’s Bay. But there is evidence that before the last Ice Age, out-of which the earth is still slowly emerging, tropi­ cal vegetation grew in Greenland, and we may be cothing back to that. SIR WILFRED GRENFELL— (By Dale Carnegie) •— Successful Indian Ranchers Blackfoot Indians living on the Peigan Reserve in the Pincher Creek region of Alberta have made good as ranchers and farmers, and are among the most prosperous and self-reliant of Canada’s Indian popu­ lation. The Department of Mines and Resources, which is charged with the administration of Indian Affairs, reports that this tribe has a herd of about 2,600 Shorthorn and Hereford cattle, as w’ell as about 2,000 horses, and 5,000 acres of their 9,000- acre resera^^tmder cultivation. Ranching operations on the Peigan Reserve are carried out by the Indians themselves on a co-opera­ tive basis. The cattle herd belongs to sixty-five individual owners who stage a grand round-up each summer, during which each owner’s brand is tallied, and as a precaution against mange the animals are put through dipping pens under the supervision of a Government inspector. The cattle are remarkably free of disease and are among the best range herds of beef cattle in southern Alberta. On the market the Indian cattle bring premium prices, and from sales of about 400 head yearly the owners derive an annual revenue of from $15,000 to $20,000 at present prices. The reserve is in the shortgrass country -and contains an ideal winter grazing range. The successful transformation of these Indian people from hunters to farmers and ranchers has been accomplished within two generations. Before the coming of the white men, these Indians subsisted mainly on the great.Buffalo herds, but with the ad­ vance of settlement and the depletion of game re­ sources that followed in its wake, they were left practically destitute. Fortunately their lands were suitable for agriculture and stock-raising, and it was only necessary for the Government of Canada to proyide stock and equipment and establish them as farmers and ranchers under the supervision of in­ structors. Systematic Saving, Sets Fine Example More and more people are finding that the only solution to the economic problems of the present day is the one they work out for themselves. Individual thrift—regular savings of small amounts out qf one's personal income—is proving once more one of the most fruitful sources of reserve funds to care for special expenditures. Banks report larger numbers of people are saving through Christmas Clubs this year. New York State has over half a million such accounts, with an average balance of over $41 each. “Savings for Christmas provides one more proof of our in­ stinct for thrift,” says Henry R. Kinsey, President of the Williamsburgh Savings Bank, Brooklyn. “It proves again that the spirit of individual initiative still lives. The teachers of Ontario are doing a great deal in educating the children, of this province in wise mon­ ey management. Many of them are giving lessons^ on tile meaning and use of money. Five hundred and twenty-one schools are teaching regular savings prac­ tically through the Penny Bank of Ontario. Forty- nine schools had 80% or over of their attendance bank each banking day in September and October. This is the record to date: In Ingersoll, 76% of the pupils at Memorial School and 66% of the pupils at the Princess Elizabeth School were regular depositors for the last period reported on. At the end of October, 1938, the amount on deposit with the Penny Bank of Ontario, by the pupils of the Ingersoll Public .Schools totalled $3,109.84 compared with $3,040.43 the previous year. THE D O CTO R Telia The Story by W. E. AUGHINBAUGH, M.D. One of the happiest men on earthis Doctor Grenfell, of Labrador. Hishair is grey, his eyes are tired, andhis hands are rough from frost-biteand arctic winds.He has been shipwrecked four dif­ ferent times among the icebergs, and has slept all night on the floating ice. He has been lost in the wilds of Labrador and almost frozen to death. He has been so hungry that he even ate the sealskin straps off his boots. He is past seventy, and he hasn't any money. But don’t feel sorry for Doctor Grenfell of Labrador. I don’t I envy him; for he has found about the only things that matters in the world—happiness and contentment. Forty-five years ago, Doctor Gren­ fell was graduated from Oxford and opened his office in the ultra-fashion­ able Mayfair section of London. His practice grew, he prospered, and he was apparently headed for big things in England; but he needed a rest. So he decided to spend a summer vacation among the fishermen of Labrador. Dr. Grenfell was astonished to find that there was not one physician to care for the thirty thousand fish­ ermen inhabiting this bleak and frosty coast. He did what he could for them that summer; and, in the autumn, he returned to London. But prescrib­ ing pills for his rich patients in fash­ ionable Mayfair seemed trifling and inconsequential. He had caught a vision. The north was calling him. So back he went and for forty-two years now, he has been sailing up and down the treacherous coasts of Labrador; and has rpade himself the test-loved physician in all the world. King George of England knighted him for. his unselfish and heroic ser­ vices. Doctor Grenfell recently talked to me for hours about his extraordinary experiences. Once he called to see an old woman who had fallen on the ice and crushed her leg. Infection had set in, and her leg had to be amputated. But the pious old woman, nurtured on the precepts of the Old Testament, refused to take chloro­ form. She believed God had sent her the pain and that it was her Christian duty to bear it. Nothing less than a load of dynamite could have changed her mind. So she had her five grown sons sit -on her and hold her down while Doctor Grenfell cut off her leg. She didn’t whimper; but the Doctor told me that the experience almost wrecked him. The most-exciting experience of Doctor Grenfell’s life occurred on Easter Sunday, in 1908. An emer­ gency call came from a man sixty miles away. The poor fellow was in agony, and would soon be dead un­ less he could be operated upon. So Doctor Grenfell harnessed his dogs and set out with his sled, racing against death. To save time he took a short cut across the floating ice in the bay. Suddenly the wind changed. The ice started drifting out to sea. The sit- uation was desperate. The dogsmade a mad dash for shore. ButIt was too late. The soft ice gaveway, and they plunged into the frigidwater. Doctor Grenfell grabbed hisknife and cut the dogs loose from the sled. The sled sank, but he and the dogs swam to a floating cake of ice. Doctor Grenfell lost all his warm clothes when the sled sank. The few clothes that he had on were of no use for they were soaking wet with ice water. A bitter wind was blow­ ing and night was coming, on He felt himself growing numb with cold. He felt drowsy. He knew he was freezing to death. There was only one way out. So he took his pocket knife and killed three of his dogs. Piling up the dead bodies of the dogs to act as a wind break, he wrapped their furry skins about his shivering body and lay down and slept all night on the ice pan that was rocking about in the sea. When morning came he took the bones of his dogs, tied them to­ gether to make a pole, tied his shirt to the end of the pole, and then waved it frantically, hour after hour, at the lonely cliffs on the shore. It seemed utterly hope­ less. Suddenly, he saw the flash of an oar in the bright morning sunlight A boat was fighting its way through the ice and he was saved. What an experience, and what a man! When I said as much to Doctor Grenfell, he protested. “Come now,” he said, “you mustn't try to make a martyr of me. It has all been jolly good fun, you know.” A Question Facing The United States . A- big question which the United States is facing is how fab she opght to go in undertaking to protect all of North and South ^America against the invasion of possible conquerors from Europe or the Far East. The United States is committed under the Monroe Doctrine to prevent the establishment of colonies or governments anywhere in the Americas by any foreign, power. They would certainly have to make a demonstration of armed force if the dictatorships of Europe, or Japan should try to gain a foothold by force in South America. But' the question is whether they are obligated to prevent them from gaining control of great areas or whole, nations by "peaceful penetration.” There are more than a million Germans now perm­ anently settled in Brazil. yhey are a unified group. In one large section of Brazil no language but Ger­ man is spoken. There is nothing to prevent them from becoming citizens, as many of them have done. There is another large Italian section of Brazil. New colonists from both those nations, are pouring into South America.What would be the position of the United State/ if they should gain control of the government of (a HORSES The horse has been called the noblest of the train of animals that serve man, and some there are who feel that if man is the noblest work of the Creator, then the horse ranks next. While no man appreciates the finest qualities of the horse more than I do, and as a country doctor I rode many of them, night and day, in all kinds of weather and never had them fail me, I feel that the average individual takes entirely too many liberties with the average horse. The horse is temperamental and expresses his likes or dislikes most emphatically by either kicking or biting. • As an interne I treated a mafi who undertook to become familiar with a large white horse by stroking its nose. Without any warning the animal reared up, reached out its head and bit the entire ear off that meddlesome man, and we had a hard time sav­ ing his life for the wound became infected and he hovered between life and death for several days be­ fore his condition improved. Since that experience I have never undertaken to pet any horse unless I knew’ all about his disposition. It is a common practice among women, men and children to approach horses standing at the curb and attempt to pat them. Nine out of ten of these gentle servants of man appreciate this mark of affection and welcome the attention shown, but there is always a chance that they may resent it Several years ago I was obliged to amputate a portion of the hand of a nine-year-old school girl who was bitten by the horse of a police officer, as she was offering it some candy. Within the past year there have been numerous * reports of accidents to pedestrians who stopped to stroke the noses of horses and who, in turn, were bitten by the. animals. One prominent dairy concern has had several un­ fortunate experiences in this connection and has been obliged to warn people against this habit Of course, legally the injured victim cannot bring any action for damages, but the serious part of the affair Heat in the fact that the human sufferer may be maimed for life or else die as the result of an infected wound, for the teethiand saliva of the average horse are anything but cleanly. So do not invite trouble by petting strange horses, no matter how gentle they may appear. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Ingersoll, Ontario, January 23rd, 1939 To The Editor, Ingersoll Tribune Dear Sir:— In view’ of the fact that the Inger­ soll Business Men’s Association has for two years endeavored to pro­ mote business and advance Ingersoll at a cost of approximately $1000.00 a year, it appears to me as presi- derfuof the Association that someone slipped on the part of better judg­ ment, when they arrested the prin­ cipal in one of the largest drawing cards put on in Ingersoll in some time, for swimming in the river, through the application of a by-law that is as obsolete as the one in the town by-laws that reads that one can be arrested for spitting on the side­ walks of the town. If the boy erred in not asking permission to go swimming he made a grave mistake. He was selling something that no other merchant would care to sell, while many are allowed to bother every householder selling wares that do conflict with merchants. Better to have him earn a living than col­ lect relief. . This incident has un­ doubtedly created a bad tgste for our town among the many who came for miles to see the feat and a feeling that Ingersoll is behind the times in more ways than in not having a garbage and sewerage sy­ stem. ’ Thank you for the space this has taken in your paper. Yours sincerely, ROBERT D. CARR, President, Ingersoll Businessmen's Association. TODAY and TOMORROW by Frank Barker Stockbridge SCIENCE ... discoveries One of the best ways I know to keep in touch with the progress of this world of ours is to read the re­ ports of the proceedings of the learned societies, most of which Ijold their annual meetings in the first month of the new year. At these meetings men of science report to their fellows the new dis­ coveries they have made in their laboratories during the year just ended. I used to go to many of these meetings, but lately I have been content to read the reports. My amazement at the progress of the human mind in discovering the secrets of the physical universe’never ceases- Man still Wows very little about the world in which he lives, but every year adds to our know­ ledge. The thing which makes science so interesting to me is that it is an un­ ceasing search for truth. Wc hear much about scientific “theories.” Real scientists look upon theories merely as workable explanations of things they do not feel sure about, which serve temporarily until one of them discovers the truth. Then all the theories go overboard in the face of facta. RELIGION.................................faith Whenever I am in the company of men of science I am always" im­ pressed by their deep religious spirit/ Men who pry deeply into the pro­ cesses of Nature seem to become which it is a part came into beingis not to challenge the truth of re­ligion, but to try to learn how theCreator of the universe brought itinto being.What science has already learnedindicates that new worlds, perhapswhole new universes, are constantlybeing created. We know little, yet,about conditions on these distantworlds, but more and more is beinglearned every year. When the great new 200 inch telescope, now being erected in California, gets into action, Man will be able to penetrate deeper into the secrets of creation than ever before. OURSELVES ... . worry While astronomers are scanning the heavens for new truths about the universe, biologists, chemists and physicists are exploring the mechan­ ism of the human body to learn the truth about how it works and what makes it go wrong at times. In my own time, since I began to study medicine fifty years ago, the know­ ledge which science has gained about ourselves has been simply tremen­ dous. There is still much to be learned. Nobody has yet found exactly what causes the common cold, or how to cure it. Men of science are still delving into the causes of cancer, the most dreadful of all the ills that flesh is heir to. Great strides have been made in curing cancer, how­ ever, and many diseases which were invariably fatal half a century ago are now definitely curable. I think the greatest step forward in our understanding of ourselves is the recognition that many of the ill­ nesses which used to puzzle physic­ ians have their origin in the mind. Worry is definitely known to cause stomach ulcers and some forms of heart disease. Now it has been discovered that tooth decay begin­ ning in middle age is often caused by nothing but mental and nervous strain. EDUCATION . . happiness The purpose of life is the pursuit of happiness. Too many people think “happiness” and “pleasure” mean the same thing, and too much of the training of the young is directed to­ ward enabling them to pursue pleas­ure rather than happinesl. Pleasure is material, happiness is spiritual. One can be happy without money, without more than a bare subsistence and the most meagre shelter. To achieve that sort of hap­ piness one must have been taught in infancy how to live with himself, and not to be dependent upon external surroundings and other people. One of the great achievements of modem science is the recognition that those who are truly happy not only have few ailments of their own, but are most useful to the rest of the world. The rules for achieving happiness arc simple and easily understood. You can find them all in the New Testament. I like to think, and honestly believe, that the reason as many men and women who are en­ gaged in scientific research always seem happy is that they have dis­ covered that the road to happiness is in selfless service to the rest of mankind.

Dagu* — Author of Sister Mary's Kitchen It won’t be many days before seed and nurserymen’s catalogs will be filling our mailboxes so now is a good time to make an inventory of your garden supplies.. Tools, fertil­ izers, sprays and dusting powders and seeds should be listed. Then you can study your catalogs with an eye out for what you especially need and place your orders early. If you keep a garden note book, / you will know’ exactly what vari­ eties of flowers and vegetables and how much of each you want to order. See about painting the garden furniture, too, so that when warm days invite you to spend every min- I ute out doors you won’t have to stay in fussing with paint. Look after the garden tools, painting wooden parts and covering the metal parts with a coat of heavy oil. Sharpen edged tools,, replace handles as needed and do any required repair­ ing.* • • • If you are planning to take ad­ vantage of the “January White Sales” it’s a good idea to do a little sober thinking about what you should know if you would be a wise buyer. First of all consider your needs. Sturdy muslin sheets for growing children, fine percale for guest­ rooms; towels for kitchen and bath­ room, bedspreads and pillow cases will be offered to you at bargain prices. Watch the sheet sizes and be sure that the tom length is at least 108 inches. You can find a few brands as long as 113 inches torn length which is worth remembering if you have extra long beds. A thread count of at least 64 threads to the inch in both the warp and filling directions is imperative if you expect satisfactory wear from a light weight muslin sheet. The width of the sheets of course. is determined by the width of the beds. Seventy- two inches is the standard width for single beds, 81 inches for three- quarter and 90 inches for double beds. The super-optimist knocked at the Aberdonian’s door. “The compli­ ments of the season, sir. I’m the fel­ low that empties the dustbins.” "The same to you, my man. I’m the fellow that fills them.” convinced, regardless of their prev­ ious beliefs, that there is somewhere v great First Cause, and that the universe is organized and operates on a well-ordered Divine plan. The essence of all religion is faith. So it was a distinctly religious ap­ proach to the problems of science which Dr. George D. Birkhoff, pres­ ident of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, made in his opening address at the Richmond convention. “In the daring effort of the scien­ tist to extend knowledge as far as possible,” he said, “there arises an aura *of faith. It is this spontan­ eous faith which furnishes the most powerful incentive and is the best guide to further progress.” He added that the transcendent import­ ance of love and goodwill in all human relations is shown by their mighty beneficent effect upon th* individual and society, When I hear seekers' of truth speaking in such words I recall the words of another great Teacher: “Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.” CREATION . . ignorance There is no field too wide, no sub­ ject too small, for the .tens of thou­ sands of scientific researchers who arp seeking for truth to investigate. -To explore the' mystery of how our Earth and the solar system of “A BANK WHERE SMALL ACCOUNTS ARE WELCOME.* Ingersoll Branch: A.

Bragg, widely-known life­ long resident of West Oxford town­ ship, passed away at Woodstock General Hospital on January l"th, after an illness of two weeks’ dura- ation. He had, however, been in failing health for the past two years. Mr. Bragg was born in the Fol- den’s district, and had spent practic­ ally his entire life there. He was u member of the Folden’s Corners’ Baptist Church, and a deacon there. Besides the widow* he is survived by two sons. Clarence, West Oxford; James at home; two daughters, Mrs. Go:don Daniels, Dereham Township; Mrs. David Adair, Ingersoll; also one brother, George, Woodstock.

Holden at the piano. The service was largely attended. The pallbearers .were Charles Har­ rison, Charles Alnftls, Robert Pullen, Burton Pullen, E. Barnett and B. Clifton. ’■ V ■ Reports presented at the annual ' meetin" of the Ingersoll Horticul- | tural Society held in the Community “Y" showed the past year to have been a most satisfactory one. 88 members were enrolled and a satis­ factory balance remained in the treasury, after all accounts had been paid.President E. S. Byerman occupied the chair and very concisely review­ ed the activities of the society dur­ ing the year. He stressed the irnport- anc^of the harmony and co-operative spirit that had prevailed and the success that had marked the several flower shows. In his opinion the so­ ciety had u very successful year. He urged that efforts be put forth for a still greater membership and for a continuance of the good work that had stimulated a deeper interest in | horticultural work in the town in the past few* years. IIn the course of his remarks, Treasuier A. F. Can* sounded a note of caution to the Society in regard to expenditures. He made it plain 1 that the Society should not be obli­ gated until they: were assured as to the money being available. Following discussion it was de­ cided to change the membership fee to fifty cents instead of one dollar as ir. the past, and to Abandon the coupon system. Officers for 1939 were elected as follows.

Kiwanian Joseph M. Wilson acted as chairman, the program being in charge of the com­ mittee of Kiwanis Education, Laws and Regulations. Three of the club members deliv­ ered brief addresses during the evening. The first speaker was Ki­ wanian F. Earl Johnston, whose topic was, “Looking Backward.” This speaker gave an outline of the his­ tory of Kiwanis International since its inauguration in 1915 up to the present tiipe. President, Kiwanian Dr. C. A. Os­ born spoke on the subject, “Looking Forward." In his remarks he outlined the program of policies which the club aims to pursue during the com­ ing year. This program will be in addition to the regular activities of the Ingersoll Club whose basic in­ terest in the past has been Child Welfare work. The suggestions of activities as offered by President Osborn, included the following:— 1. Development of a feeling of national unity through fostering mu­ tual understanding, appreciation and co-operation among the people of Canada as a whole. 2. Education and training in the duties and responsibilities of citizen­ ship to assure the perpetuation of freedom under the democratic form of government. 3. Emphasis on the benefits of international goodwill as exemplified by the understanding and friendli­ ness between the United States and Canada. 4. Co-operation in law observ­ ance and enforcement. 5. Initiation and support of con­ structive policies of conservation. 6. Increased assistance in public safety movements. 7. Equalization of educational advantages, especially . as between rural and urban areas. Kiwanian John J. McLeod was the third speaker. His topic was “Look­ ing Inward.” Mr. McLeod empha­ sized the importance of each individ­ ual member assuming some respon­ sibility for the club’s program. He pointed out that the achievements of the club will be governed solely by the actions and activities of the members. He urged each member to do his part in order that the pro. gram of the club for 1939 might be accomplished as had been outlined by President Osborn. During the evening, the Kiwanis quartette composed of Rev. Chas. D. Daniel, F. Earl Johnston, Royden G. Start and L. M. Sommer rendered several selections for the entertain­ ment of the members.

DEBATE CLUB NOTES— By Mary Crutcher — *The second debate of the seasonwas held by the I.C.I Debate Clubat four o’clock on Monday, before alarge and enthusiastic audience. Thepresident, Jessie Graham, opened themeeting and called for the minuteswhich were read by Dolly Stephen­ son. All four debaters are new mem­ bers this year and did exceedingly well in their first debate. The sub­ ject was, “The World is a Better Place to Live in Now, Than it Was in 1900.” Hazel Palmer, leader of the affirm­ ative, showed the advantages of our improved communication and the comforts of modern means of travel by road, rail, sea and air, comparing them with the hazardous horse-and- buggy and sail-boat days. Unhealthy factory conditions and long working hours of the last century have dis­ appeared as a result of appointment of inspectors by the government. Ruth Crandall, leading the nega­ tive, declared that life was prefer­ able before 1900. Religion and hu­ man sympathy have been pushed aside by modern.interests and pas­ times. The pleasant social life of pioneer communities is replaced by 1 selfish amusements practised in the stream-line manner. Moreover money was more evenly diveded before 1900 to the benefit and happiness of all. Margaret Wilson on the affirma­ tive, spoke mainly ^bout the conven­ iences and comforts of the modern home. Electricity, hydro, gas and all 1 kinds of labor-saving devices make 1 life easier and happier. Leotta Wilson in referring to pre- | sent war conditions, pointed out that i such horrible weapons as bombs, | tanks and war planes, were scarcely j known before 1900. With its terrible j destruction of life, property and mor­ ale, modern warfare has not even the heroism of the battle-field of old. The debaters were well matched and the judges, June Riley, Ronald Chambers and Jack Banberry, found the negative team the winners, while the general vote favored the affirmative. Confederation Life Shows Strong Financial Position The report and ‘balance sheet pre­ sented at the 67th annual meeting of the Confederation Life Associa­ tion were the strongest in the last 25 years, according to V. R. Smith, general manager. Stronger even then a year ago, the Association’s financial position offers policy-hold­ ers improved security. New business for 1938 was $50,- 267,236, the best for any year since 1931. New ordinary business showed a gain of more than $1,000,000 with increases in Ontario, Quebec, Alber­ ta, Prince Edward Island, United Kingdom, Jamaica and the Dominion Republic. Total business in force, excluding group pensions, group sickness and accident contracts and immediate an­ nuities, «reached $*421,526,682, an increase of $10,385,223 over last year.

Howard S, Wright, son of Mr. and iMrs. Harry Wright, 71 Charles ' street east, Ingersoll, who is Assist­ ant Instructor of the London Flying Club, had the longest flight in his 500 hours of flying last week. He brought his silver Porterfield plane to a two-point landing at Lambeth Airfield just 48 hours after he had been forced to land in a blinding snowstorm, 15 miles from Montreal. Under ordinary flying conditions, it would have taken 4 ‘a hours to make the trip, but when there is a snowstorm to buck and visibility leaches a mile with the light failing, it’s another matter. And when the engine freezes up it’s still another matter, that airmen can fully appre- e iate. Monday afternoon, last, Pilot How- for Montreal with a passenger, a Uni­ versity of Western Ontario student, (i ushing to his home in New Bruns- ; wick to be at the bedside of his lather, whose condition was grave, , To’ save hours. Commander Macken­ zie Dobson of the London bombing squadron, arranged for Wright to , fly th<? student down. ( All went well for about 400 of the 500 miles when they hit the storm, snow and a low ceiling. At 450 miles, travel was becoming increasingly difficult with visibility edging down to within a mile. At 5.15 the plane was 15 miles southeast of Montreal, within range of the beacon of St. Hubert- Airport, but Pilot Wright said he was uuable to see it. Tiivling low over the flat country­ side, he decided to take a chance, taxied his plane into* position and then swooped down to land in a wide field on the fringe of the little ham­ let of St. Constant. Once landed, a car was comman­ deered and the student rushed to ■Montreal to catch the 8 o'clock train I Aylmer made a field day of their HEDY LAMARR RUTH STARRETT When a leading magazine requested a committee of i known Mauties, glamorous Hedy Lamarr of the21 experts, cons stihg cf artists, newspaper columnists, I *’*-----“ — •------stage and movie producers and actors to select the | □..o,uu u.e uvuu.a, me Viennese wimost beautiful woman from a dozen internationally-1 brunette.

Despite the loss of time the stu­ dent arrived at the station an hour before the train left. Tuesday* when Pilot Wright en­ deavored to take off for London he found himself confronted with a 20- mile-an-hour wind, the coldest weath­ er he has ever experienced and to add to it all, the feed lines of his . .engine frozen. A call to St. Hubert I n ake such a score possible, brought out a “fire pot” or mechan­ ism that shrouds the engine, permit­ ting frozen parts to thaw and mech­ anics to work. At noon, last Wednesday, Wright took off in his two-seater from the forced landing, stopped to fuel at Kingston and landed at the Lambeth Airfield four hours and five minutes after he left St. Constant. From Oshawa to Dundas he bucked heavy snow storms, but was able to carry through without further mishap.A Airmen expect storms and weath­ er like that tlys time of year, but it was the loriWst trip I’ve ever taken from a point of time spent, but I suppose you have to expect such things now and again,” said Mr. Wright. teams: Aylmer (65)—Foy 20.

I became nimble on my feet. , Now, at 61—weighing 168—1 am cheerful, energetic, and alwaysready to play with my grandchild­ren.”—F.E.B. Many people grow old long beforetheir time because they neglect onevital need of health—the need for internal cleanliness. Eventually they r.dopt the healthy Kruschen habit.Then probably for the first time intheir lives, they start getting rid every day of waste matter from the system. The result is renewed hea!’u .and vigour. Ailments due to a clog­ged system vanish, youth returns, and life becomes really worth living.
