' ' 1 Charles H. Morrison - Dies At Woodstock A well knowh resident of Oxford County, who was prominently identi­ fied in sports activities, particularly horse racing, Chas. Henry Morrison, passed away in Woodstock Hospital, early Sunday, February 19th. Mr. Morrison had been seriously ill for about ten days but had been in fail­ ing health for some time. He was 62 years of age. * “Charlie" Morrison, as he was- familiarly known, was a native of Woodstock, a son of the late City Clerk John Morrison and Mrs. Morri­ son. He ,was educated there and then entered railway work at London for a time. About 40 years ago he went to Ottawa as private secretary to the late Hon. James Sutherland, a former* minister of public works for Canada, in which position he remained for three years. He returned to Wood- stock and-has lived there practically ever since.

Walker’s Window for only $5.95- TAX RATE CUTONE HALF MILL Rates For 1939 Set At 41 Mills At Council Meeting Monday Night. The main business at the regular meeting of the town council held on Monday evening in the Council Chamber was the setting of the tax rate for 1939. A rate of 41 mills was struck, this is one half mil! lower than last year. Mayor Alex. H. Edmonds was in the chair and the members were all in attendance. There were no com­ munications, accounts or petitions to present to the meeting and according to Clerk Robert McNiven, this is the first time such a thing has occurred in his experience. Committee reports were also few in number and recommended the payment of accounts. Councillor Mor­ riscig enquired if it was the intention of the council to do anything about the collection and disposal of gar­ bage this year, to which question the Mayor replied that the matter was entirely up to the council, but his own opinion was that nothing should be attempted on the small vote in favor of the proposition last year. Other members of the council con­ curred in the opinion of the mayor. On motion of Councillors Murray and Clark, the report of the auditors was accepted and the clerk was auth­ orized to have the usual number printed. The by-law to authorize the levy­ ing and collecting of taxes for the town of Ingersoll for the year 1939 was introduced on motion of coun­ cillors Murray and Clark, and was considered in committee of the whole, with Councillor Morrison in the chair. The amount to be collected for all purposes for the year 1939 is $123,692.08 or a rate of 41 mills on an assessment of $3,023,602, which is a decrease of one half mill frdln last year. The by-law was carried With­ out amendment. Mayor Edmorfds in discussing this year's rate said it was good business on the part of every councillor that had resulted in the half mill decrease from last year. He said every councillor was to be congratulated on being able to run his committee on such little money. It was moved by Councillor Clark r.nd seconded by Councillor Morrison, that a committee be appointed to in­ vestigate the matter of purchasing a grader for the town. Mayor Ed­ monds named, the Board of Works to handle this matter when the reso­ lution was passed. On motion of Councillors Smith and Underwood, the Mayor was author­ ized to name a committee to arrange for the reception of their Majesties upon their forthcoming visit here in June. The personnel of this commit­ tee will be named by the Mayor at r.n early date. Mr. and Mrs. J.

FEBRUARY 23rd, 1939 Substitutes The scientists gives us the stories of substitutes in a way al’, his own. He is an adventurer just as much as was Cook or Magellan. He is urged to his task by the thrill of discovery and he works on and on and on. dominated by the desire to find something that will be of benefit to his fellow men. So, it is not unexpected to find that these hardworking adven­ turers preface the announcement of the records of their achievements with simple, easily remembered tales.In the year 1868, billiard players were alarmed at the prospect of a shortage of elephant tusks from Africa. Billiard balls were made from that ivory. To prote* the growing market for billiard balls and piano keys a manufacturer offered a prize of ten thousand dollars to anyone who could find a reliable ivory substitute. A young American printer, John Hyatt, found it. By treating cotton linters with nitric acid, Hyatt produced a cellulose nitrate solid which filled the bill. It was the world's first plastic. Young girls of today, practising their piano exer­ cises. touch with their fingers beautiful cream-white keys, but their mothers and grandmothers fingered keys that were yellow with age, for natural ivory became yellow very quickly. The first time you have a chance to examine an old spinet, look at the keys. What we call the white ones, will be brownish. The arrival of substitutes was not welcomed by all, (particularly by thu»c who are forever searching for gems. The Hindus prize the ruby above all other precious stones. It is said to bring its wearer, health, wealth, wisdom and happiness, and is the em­ blem of true love. It is called the most precious of the twelve stones God created when He made all creatures. By the Lord’s command the ruby was placed on Aaron’s neck. Synthetic rubies were first placed on the market in 1900 and synthetic sapphires about ten years later. Those which most perfectly reproduced the genuine were exported© the Orient where they were cut by natives and often sold to tourists as genuine ones. A zealous young missionary, with a sparse pocketbook, once purchased a ruby ring for his lady, and when he returned home to Toronto to marry her, presented the ring to her. She learned later on that it was an imitation, but like the true lady she was, she never told her husband that he had been gypped. Nowadays we have all sorts of substitutes for the expensive jewellery that at one time could only be purchased by the rich. They are very beautiful, which after all is the main object and, when a young girl can procure for a few cents what her mother had to ■pay as many dollars f*r, why not? The pleasure is hers just the same, and she is adorned just as much as her wealthy sister. Go into a ten-cent store and you will see baubles on display that a king’s ransom couldn’t have bought before synthetics arrived and yet a robber would not think it worth while to steal. The scientists have done much to put all people on a level. They are great socialists. How Long Is An Inch? Probably it is not of world-shaking importance from a practical, everyday point of view, but it does seem that the United States Congress might do some­ thing about the length of the inch. In the last session a bill was introduced to establish the legal length of the inch at the same as the British inch, which is four-millionths longer than the United States one. «ln nine million yards of goods* that would make a difference of a yard between Englisn measurements and thaU^the U. S. A., but what are a few millionths betwecuTtwo great nations? The status of the inch today is a good deal like the vfldth of a window which a green workman was asked to measure. The boss handed him a two-foot rule. The man reported that the window was as Ibng as the rule and a half a brick and the length of his thumb over. There is a law on the statute books of the United States which defines the length of the world-wide Unit of measurement,.the meter, in terms of inches, but it doesn't say how long an inch is. Working back­ ward from the legal definition of the meter, it comes out that an inch is .025340065 meters and then some. You can carry the division to infinity and you- never will come to an exact numeral. It would be difficult, to make a political issue out of the exact length of the inch, because nobody cares, much, except physicists and other scientific highbrows, and they haven't votes to count. Beyond The Dreams of Kings Perfumes from France, woolens from England, oranges from Florida and California, coffee from Brazil, laces from Switzerland, «motbr cars from Osh- awa, and Windsor, pineapple juice from Hawaii . . . Isn’t it marvelous how the intricate machine of commerce constantly gathers the necessities,* conven­ iences and luxuries of life from the four comers of the earth and puts them down right here in our home town?. Have you ever stoppfil to'think what ah important part* advertising plays in making aft this possible? Without advertising, no merchant could afford to risk a large investment in merchandise—and wait and wait till some chance customer happened in . . Without advertising^'ypu would be unaware of the *^ny lovely, useful, needful things assembled in the V res for your ^convenience . . . Without advertising, ending what youj^'anted at a price you could afford would be a matter oT luck or of patient plodding from store to store. Mass production and mass volume—through adver­ tising—have brought to the Canadian people an ease and comfort of living that would liave been be­ yond the wildest dream of kings of old. T HE DO CT O RTelia The Storyby W. E. AUGH1NBAUGH, M.D.DENTAL ANAESTHESIAA man’s genius cannot raise him from obscurity,no matter how brilliant it may be, unless it developsat the opportune time and is appreciated and recom­mended by men of advanced thought. Perhaps the life of no one man illustrates the truth­ fulness of this statement, so much as that Dr. Hor­ ace Wells, of Hartford, Conn., to whom mankind is indebted for the use of nitrous oxide gas to eliminate pain, while extracting teeth. Of course this gas was discovered in 1772 by Priestly, a chemist, but he nevbr dreamed of using it to allay pain. In 1828, Dr. Geradin, read a paper before the Academy of Medicine in Paris, suggesting its use in minor surgical operations, but no one ever ventured to employ it in surgery or dentistry. Indeed its only use was by popular entertainers, administering it to venturesome individuals selected from the audience in order to see them make fools of themselves. A man named Colton travelled about the country giving such demonstrations, and charged twenty-five cents admission to his performances. He also advertised to give private entertainments before ladies clubs and church organizations. Certain of its practical use in the field of surgery and dentistry. Dr. Horace Wells, before an audi­ ence of doctors and dentists, had a w’isdom tooth ex­ tracted December 11, 1844, by a Dr. Riggs, and when he regained consciousness remarked, "I did not so much as feel the prick of a pin.” Immediately he was subject to ridicule by cartoon­ ists and newspapers—so much so in fact that it was more than twenty years afterwards when the pro­ fessional men recognized it and began its extensive use. In the meantime, Dr. Wells, became the butt of ridicule, was refused recognition, looked upon as a charlatan, and belittled. » The public inflamed by the prejudiced reports spread about nitrous oxide gas and Dr. Wells, ignored its use, when it was suggested by surgeons and dentists, despite the fact that many major surgical operations were performed, without the patients feeling pain. Finally depressed and worn out by his struggles for recognition, Dr. Wells, aged 33, on January 22, 1848, committed suicide by slashing himself with a razor. His short life was tragic for himself and his family, but he gave to humanity—Anaesthesia—the greatest gift of science. To-day—-far too late to do him any good—monuments, paintings, statues and bronze plates in colleges commemorate his donation to man­ kind.

RESEARCH .... million*I had never quite realized the fullextent to which industry is employ­ing scientifically trained techniciansto improve their products and devisenew ones or new ways of using theold ones, until I saw a report the other day by the head of a great industrial corporation. Langhorne M. Williams, Jr., pre­ sident of the Freeport Sulphur Com­ pany, points out that there arc now more than 1.700 industrial research laboratories, employing 23,000 tech­ nicians, on which industry is spending 250 million dollars a year. These research workers are train­ ed men recruited from the great technical schools and, universities. This particular company has appoint­ ed one of its engineers, Donald B. Mason, as technical director for the purpose, among other things, of es­ tablishing and maintaining contacts with the universities so that the pick of the annual crop of technical graduates will find jobs waiting for them. “Research,” says Mr. Williams, is the most promising source of jobs as well as higher profits.” I know that in many chemical industries more than half the profits come from new products developed by research in the past ten years. • • • PROGRESS..........................freezing The world is what it is today be­ cause of scientific research which has laid the foundation for these bet­ ter quality and wider variety of use­ ful things which make life easier or more enjoyable. Not only have the great inventions of modern times come largely out of the industrial research laboratories, but new scientific principles are con­ stantly being discovered, opening new fields in which inventors can ex­ ercise their ingenuity. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology announced the other day that in its laboratory it had been dis­ covered that metal at a lemperature of 460 degrees below zero becomes a perfect conductor of electricity, eliminating all resistance and loss of power. Someone may find a way to freeze the high-lines and so reduce the cost of current to consumers to almost nothing. Assen Jordanoff, a young air pilot, has lately made experiments with freezing the gasoline in an airplane's tanks. It takes extremely low temperature but it eliminates the most dangerous hazard of flying, that of the plane catching fire after a crash. INVENTIONS . . - television Few people have any notion of the amount of time and money which it takes to bring a new invention of im­ portance to the point where it begins to make money for the ipvenlor and the people who have put money into it.' Right now the big broadcasting companies are announcing that they are about ready to begin commercial television broadcasting and put tele­ vision receiving sets on the market. We have been hearing about tele­ vision for nearly 20 years. The other day the original inventor of the basic principle on which the broad­ casting companies arc working told of the time and money it had cost. Philo T. Farnsworth of Philadel­ phia, when a boy of 14, tending a domestic generating plant on his family’s farm in the West, worked out the idea, but trying to put it into operation was, as he puts it, “like trying to build a locomotive on i a desert island.” He persuaded one business man after another to put up money for experiments until now, sixteen years later, more than a million dollars has been spent to bring television to perfection. SC IENCE...................................glass Besides all the industrial research which is going on, there art hundreds of scientific laboratories where the purpose of the research workers is to discover new scientific principles which may or may not have a prac­ tical commercial .yalue. Sooner or later, however, most of these addi­ tions to human knowledge become the basis of new inventions. Almost anyone can imagine uses for invisible glass. Dr. Katharine Blodgett, a research worker in the General Electric laboratories at Schenectady, discovered that by coat­ ing glass with chemicals so com­ pounded. that they could be spread in a film of the thickness of a mole­ cule, which is the smallest tangible part into which matter can be divid­ ed, the glass lost its power of reflect­ ing light At the same time it be­ came very much more transparent than before. . The only reason we see clear glass at aH is because it reflects light and Equal* Record Canada's track and field flag is being carried high this winter atindoor meets in United States by Bill Fritz, Queen's University mid­dle distance runner and Larry O'Connor, Toronto hurdler.

Dague - Author of Sister Mary’s Kitchen Every woman who does her own housework, even with help for heavy cleaning, has the problem of her hands always with her. And nothing is more conducive to an inferiority complex than the knowledge that one's hands proclaim their intimacy with the dish pan and the dust cloth. So first of all take care to protect your hands when you are doing cer­ tain household tasks. If you can wear rubber gloves wheir you wash dishes do so by all means. If you can't be sure to rinse off the soapy water and dry your hands thoroughly when the dishes are done. Then rub in a good hand lotion. When you dust protect your hands by wearing lambskin gloves treateu •<ith softening oils. If theSe"specially prepared gloves are not available in­ vest in some goatskin gloves such as fannert and men who work outdoors use and cream your hands before slipping on tht- gloves. In a short time these gloves will be well oiled, too.At night, massage a good oily I cieam into your hands and then put on loose light gloves. In order to keep the nails strong and healthy apply oil around the cuticle. This does much toward correcting brittle­ ness and keeps the nails from break­ ing. Nails that tfre ridged will be im­ proved by buffing. Paste polish is recommended today in place cf the powder we used when we buffed our nails so jnany years ago. Probably every woman who keeps her own house looks forward to a Utopian day when dishwashing will be no problem. But in the mean­ time w<j must learn to look upon dishwashing; as a part of a health crusade and give it the important place ■ in the scheme of efficient housekeeping that it deserves. Colds, influenza and other com­ municable diseases often make the rounds of an entire family because common carriers, such as, dishes that look dean upon casual inspection, are not washed clean in the scientific sense. Hot soapsuds is one of the most effective cleansing agents and is easily available, whether dishes are ♦ washed in a dishpan or in a modern dishwashing contrivance. Plenty of hot water for rinsing after a thbr- dugh sudsing leases silver an<| glass ware and china free from all com­ mon disease germs and clear and ''"Sparkling to look at. Dish cloths and dish mops and dish towels should Jie kept immaculatelyfresh. Clean clohis for washing and clean towels for wiping are necessary for each batch of dishes. More bacter­ ia lurks in the proverbial "dirty dish rag” and soiled towel than any housewife can ignore. "Henry,” said Mrs. Meekton, "I must give you credit for one thing. In all our married life you have never spoken an unkind word to me." “No, Henrietta,” agreed the grati­ fied husband. “What I am wondering,” added his wife, “is whether to give you credit for a lovely disposition or mere lack of courage.” images. Non-reflecting glass would | be quite invisible. The field is wide open for inventive genius to find practical, commercial applications of invisible glass.. DURABLE .... danger There is such a thing as an inven­ tion being too good to be commer­ cially valuable. If anyone could in­ vent a suit of clothes or a pair of shoes that would never show wear, it would not be long before the whole world would be clothed and garment ma-kers and shoe manufacturers would have to shut down except to supply the needs of the annual crop of human beings. An example of such an invention _ is the radio tube which lasts for 50,- 000 hours without wearing out. It is used in long-distance telephony. The ordinary tube in your radio re­ ceiving set has a life of about 1,000 hours. But what would you do with tubes that lasted 50,000 hours? How many hours a day do you run you radio? How often do you get a new cne? Manufacturers say it wouldn't pay them to make 50,000-hour tubes for domestic use, because styles change in radios so often, and few people could or would buy the ex­ pensive long lived tubes. To wear out one of them one would have to run his radio 24 hours a day for more than six years continuously. Long j before the six years were up most of us would want a more modern re­ ceiving set. Big Eight Will Hold Open Meeting The regular business meeting of the Big Eight Society was held in the I. O. O F. Hall on Wednesday evening last, with president J. Ferris David in the chair. There was a fdir attendance. Matters of routine busi­ ness were attended to and the re­ quest from the Ingersoll, North and West Oxford Agricultural Society for the Big Eight to take membership in the society and appoint a repre­ sentative on the directorate of the Fair Board w’as approved, and Vice- President, Joseph M. Wilson was named as the Big Eight Represent­ ative. . A report on the euchres sponsored by the Big Eight, was given by Fred Franks and the financial receipts were most encouraging. It was de­ cided to holt}' another euchre, in the I.O.O.F. Hall1, on Wednesday evening, March 1st, with the same committee in charge. A number of matters were dis­ cussed for objectives and the date of the annual celebration for child­ ren, usually held on May 24th, was not decided upon until the society are assured that May 24th will be a public holiday. It was decided to make the meet­ ing of the Big Eight on Wednesday. March 15th, an open one. All former members and friends of the society are invited to attend. A good pro­ gram of entertainment is to be pro­ vided and Rev. Charles D. Daniel, minister of Trinity United Church, has been secured as speaker for th- evening. Willis—"That phrenologist is wonderful.

Deceased was born in England and was in his 83rd year. He came to Canada about thirty-two years ago, and for the greater part of that time was a resident of Inger­ soll. He went to Brantford -about two years ago to make his home with j members of his family in that city, j While here he wasa member of the ; Ingersoll Corps of the Salvation j Army and for over 15 years played 1 in the local Citadel Band. His kind and unassuming manne^ had won foi him scores of friends and his passing has occasioned profoun<| regret. Left to mourn the passing of a be­ loved husband and father, are his J widow, three sons. William, Gvoh’c i and Alfred, all of Brantford, and | three daughters, Mrs Eli Neaves, Ingersoll; Mrs. Wm. Rodwell, I Guelph, and Mrs. Sam. Cheeseman, I Brantford, to all of whom sincere I sympathy is extended in their sad bereavement. The funeral was held from the re­ sidence of his son-in-law, Samuel Cheeseman. 43 Walnut Street. Biant- ford, on Wednesday afternoon last. A short private service was held at the house, followed by a public ser­ vice at the Salvation Army Citadel, conducted by Major Raymer, Brant­ ford and Major Rix of Ingersoll. Bandmaster J.

Men­ tion was made of the books as prize.;to the pupils for general proficiency,and for the spelling contest in which one pupil from each school took part,six in all. Mention was also made ofthe splendid program given on thecommencement night. In concludingher report Mrs. Sutherland said that with the expected visit of our Kingand Queen, the bonds of our. Empirewill be sfrengthenefl-s-we as daugh­ters of this empire, will join in thewelcome with all our hearts, remem- but for your first picture you shouldmake several "test” shots, with in­creased exposure each time. Threeshots, one with 10-second timing, onewith 30 seconds, and one with about2 minutes, will do. Have a print madefrom each negative, and you can geta good idea of the timing that willbe best for other •‘interior" pictures.Photo bulbs, when needed to ob­tain an even balance of lighting in aroom,'can be used in Bridge lamps with shades tipped up and moved about to direct light wherever neces­ sary. Of course such lights used for general illumination should not be placed where they will show In the daytime pictures. If windows are included in the pic­ ture, try this: keep the shades down for seven-eighths of the exposure. Then closrilhe camera shutter, being careful riot to move the camera; raise the shades, and open the cam­ era shutter for the remaining expo­ sure time. This trick keeps the win­ dows from recording too brightly onthe film. In arranging a room for a picture,it is wise to move any furniture .thatis quite near the camera, leaving an"open" foreground. This makes theroom seem more spacious. The pic­ ture should show more floor than celling, to avoid a top-heavy appear­ ance. Winter months are a splendid time to picture the rooms of your home. Take these pictures now, and you will find added value in them in later years.

They also have memory value, in the event furnishings are changed or the home is remodeled. Any camera is suitable for these pictures, if it can be set for a time exposure. The pictures can be taken either in the daytime, or at night. Before taking a picture by day­ light, have the room illuminated as evenly as possible. Illumination may be balanced, in some cases, by ad­ justing shades of windows that will be out of range of the camera. Photo lights of the amateur "flood" type are quite helpful in “evening up" the illumination. These bulbs are also valuable for taking night pictures of interiors. With the illumination adjusted, place the camera on a firm support, shutter set for "time.” Point it to­ ward the part of the room to be pic­ tured, set the lens for a small open­ ing such as f.16, and make the ex- ■ posure. The exposure time varies with the brightness of the room. With a boxcamera, or using lens opening f.16 on cameras so marked, exposure can beas short as 4 seconds on a bright,sunny day when the room has whitewalls and more than one window.With dark walls and only one -win-alow, exposure on a sunny day would<* be about 40 seconds. On a day of hazysun, leave the shutter open twice aslong, and on a very dull day, tentimes us long. These figures will aerve as a guide, Hon. Regents, 1 cur mind, out hearts.
