Bro. T. C. Wardley of Elora, Chair
man of the Grand Lodge Committee
on Benevolence, was the proposer of
the toast to "Wilson District.” In
his remarks he paid tribute to the
many from this historic district,

the up-building of this Grand Jur
isdiction. The responders to this toast
were Rt. Wor. Bro. Gordon A. Smith,
Innerkip, the Immediate Past D.D.G.
M>, of Wilson District and Very
Wor. Bro. George W. Miller, Wood-
stock, a Past Grand Steward.
A glowing tribute was paid to the
Grand Master, by Rt. Wor. Bro.
Janies M. Malcolm of Ingersoll, a Past
D.D.G.M. of Toronto District "B"
and a personal friend of long stand
ing who introduced Most Worship
ful Brother Dunlop to the assem
blage as "A gentleman of the highest
type, whose kindly, gracious acts
has endeared him to the entire
, fraternity.”
i The Grand Master gave a most in
spirational address in which he urged
all members of the fraternity not to
be satisfied in going along thc low
level but to travel the high road.
He appealed to the brethren to al
ways think the best of the men about
them rather than the worst. He ad
vocated the reading of good books
and held that the greatest objective
in life should be to live a happy life.
M.W. Bro. Dunlop said, “I feel that
all Masons should be workers in their
church and should attend cHarch ser
vices regularly.” He held that there
was something in Masonary that
other organizations do not possess,
and it could not be classed as just
another organization because of its
antiquity. The Grand Master de
clared in concluding his remarks that,
"There is a greater need for Mas
onry in this troubled world than
there ever was before, and while it
may appear to have been defeated in
cne little place, it will never be de
feated in the .end.” .
Very Wor. Bro. Carl H. Kitching,
#Woodstocl£, extended the apprecia
tion of the gathering to the Grand
Master and on behalf of the Masons
of Wilson District, presented him
with a beautiful solid walnut uphol
stered occasional chair, with the
Masonic emblem, hand carved on the
back.
At this juncture the presentation
was made to Very Wor. Bro, Poldon
and he made a very gracious reply,
telling of his early experiences in the
Masonic Order.
Lovely old Stilton cheese were pre
sented to M.W. Bro. Dunlop, Rt.
Wor. Bro. Dixon and Rt. Wor. Bro.

The Canadian Pig
The pig has been aptly termed the “farm mort
gage lifter.” During the recent years of the de
pression, we are told by the Department of Agri
culture, the pig has been more than that. It has
been the means of rescue for many a farm and just
about the only source of profitable income for many
thousands of others.
Pig raising is practised quite generally throughout
the Dominion. Some sections quite naturally con
tribute to the commercial available supply more than
some others. The province of Ontario is the largest
‘producer, with Alberta a close second. During the
year 1937 about 4,000,000 hogs were marketed
through the regularly supervised channels of trade
and inspected packing houses. Of this volume
Eastern Canada contributed slightly over half while
the remainder originated in the Prairie Provinces.
Marketing during 1937 has been quoted because
in that year not only an all-time record of hog out
put in Canada was made, but of Canadian bacon ex
ported to Great Britain as well. Generous crops in
1936 encouraged an extension in pig breeding that
year which made itself felt very definitely in the
year following. Nature, however, played havoc with
crops during 1937 in many of the best producing
areas of Wester nCanada, forcing the liquidation
of breeding stock with a constant decline in mar
ketings during 1938. That year was the most profit
able one which the pig raiser has known for many a
day. However, indications are that the records es
tablished in 1937 will soon again be equalled if not
surpassed.
There are two chief markets upon which the pro
duct of the Canadian bacon pig is sold. One of them
is here at home and the other is Great Britain. The
people of Britain consume annually about a billion
poundQpf bacon. Of this tremendous amount Bnt-
ish production takes care of barely one-fourth. The
remainder must be supplied from Empire and foreign
sources. That is why Great Britain is the giehtest
bacon market in the world and other countries
struggle for a place in it. Denmark supplies approx
imately half of the British imports while Canada is
second in the running with about 22 per cent, a pro
portion equal to about 1,700,000 pigs.
The most important bacon product of the British
trade is the Wiltshire Side, a name derived from a
product of special excellence produced at one time
only in the county of Wiltshire, England, but which
has since become the standard cut and style of the
best in British bacon.
Pig improvement in the Dominion has been greatly
accelerated during the past fifteen years, but the
first efforts towards improvement took place over
half a century ago.
BreadSome years have passed since we have said verymuch about bread, the staff of life.In Canada for many years bread-making was forthe most part a domestic art. It is still a great arttoday, especially in the rural districts, but even inthe cities one may visit a home and enjoy the homemade bread we enjoyed in childhood days. But witnthe development of towns and cities the baking ofbread in the main passed from the domestic circle to
the family baker. Yet the charm of the domestic
loaf has apparently not lost its cunning for we aro
all familiar with shop signs that announce home
made bread and pies as mother used to make them.
The domestic baking of bread as the chief sup
plier of the family board continued for a long period
in Canada until,, as late as the beginning of the
present century, a new phase was marked. And
with the advent of mechanical power and automatic
processes, also the improvement in transportation,
the bread industry has made rapid progress within
the last decade.
The latest complete figures for a year are those of
1937 and it is noted that the bread and bakery pro
ducts industry ranked fifth in the number of exn-
ployees and seventh in the amount of salaries and
wages paid. There were 21,000 persons employed
and they got close to $20,000,000. The selling
value of the goods was $76,000,000.
The materials which go into the making of the
attractive products in the bakeshop window are
mainly produced in Canada. Bread of course, is the
chief commodity and that accounted for $55,000,000,
the flour being Canadian. Other materials are yeast,
shortening, sugar, malt, milk, nuts, cocoanut, frozen
eggs, oils such as corn, cotten-seed and soya bean.
Improving The Countryside
A provision of the Municipal Act which may be
overlooked by many townships is contained in section
513. This authorizes township councils to pass by
laws for granting a prize not exceeding ten dollars
for the best kept roadside, farm front and farm
house surroundings, in each school section in the
township, and for prescribing the conditions upon
which such prizes may be competed for and awarded.
A competition of this sort if properly managed may
be the means of a big improvement in the appear
ance of‘township roads. A bonus may also be granted,
by bylaw passed under section 511 (1) (c), not ex
ceeding twenty-five cents each, for planting on any
highway or within six feet thereof, ash, basswood,
beech, birch, butternut, cedar, cherry, chestnut, elm,
hickory, maple, oak, pine, sassafras, spruce, walnut or
whitewood trees. Such bonus to be payable at the
expiration of three years from date of planting if the
trees are then alive, healthy and in good form.

Bicycle Dangers
The returning popularity of the bicycle has served
to add in a very large measure to the traffic problem.
On town streets and rural highways young people—
and some not so young—on bicycles are giving mot
orists the cold shivers in practically every hour of
the twenty-four.
A cyclist riding alone and well over to the right is
not so much of a problem, in daylight. At night,
however, the unlighted bicycle is a real menace—
not only to the rider but to traffic generally. It seems
us that the authorities everywhere should be striv
ing to see that«<g|Rghted bicycles are kept off the
roads.
Another danger phase is that presented when two
or more bicyclists persist in riding abreast. On a
highly-travelled route, not long ago, we saw four
young men moving along in this fashion, taking up
most of the roadway and apparently quite oblivious
to the warning horns of passing motorists. . At one
period they forced a woman car driver to putter
along for some time, refusing to separate sufficiently
for her to get by. Finally another car approached
•with a determined man at the wheel and he finally
convinced the bicycle riders that it would be a good
thing to move over and let him pass.
Why bicyclists should take a sort of defiant atti- '
tude on the road is past reasoning. For their own
safety, if for no other reason, they should be made
to ride in single file and at the right edge of the high
way. If this rule were carefully adhered to there
would be fewer accidents and the nerves of motorists
would not be so much upset.

held in the Ingersoll Town Hall on
Thursday evening last. The hall was
attractively decorated and formed a
lovely setting for the affair. At the
head table places were arranged for
eight, and about the hall, were small
tables seating four. Many softly
shaded floor lamps about the large
room added much to the setting.
Lovely spring flowers graced the

Christian Education
"There seems to be q general agreement that the
time is ripe for a re-examination of the basic philos

Education is founded,” declared Rpv. Dr. Frank
Langford, Secretary of the Board of Christian Edu
cation of The United Church of Canada, speaking at
the trnnyal meeting of the Board held at the Wesley
a Building,- Toronto, recently.
- "We are urflfr fire from two extreme positions,”
he said. “First aye the left-wing moralists, and social
reformers, w'ho seem to advocate high moral conduct
and social ideals as purely human achievements,
without any reference to God as the author and
source of ^TT'iethics and all ideals.- Over against
these is a group who so emphasize the transcendence
of God, (His sovereignity; His absolute otherness, as
to leave little .or no room for education or any other
effort for htiman good. The Christian faith which
we hold recognizes the eternal tension\between the
aoncepts of Divine transcendence and human re
sponsibility, and yet it believes in both and strives
after a working synthesis of / all partial truths.
Through all the agencies of Christian Education,
from the nursery class to the Theological College, we
seek to make the human spirit sensitive to all the
many voices that speak of God and bid us love God
with all our hearts and our neighbour as ourselves.”

The Canadian Pig
The pig has been aptly termed the “farm mort
gage lifter.’’ During the recent years of the de
pression, we are told by the Department of Agri
culture, the pig has been more than that. It has
•been the means of rescue for many a farm and just
about the only source of profitable income for many
thousands of others.
Pig raising is practised quite generally throughout
the Dominion. Some sections quite naturally con
tribute to the commercial available supply more than
some others. The province of Ontario is the largest
producer, with Alberta a close second. During the
year 1937 about 4,000,000 hogs were marketed
through the regularly supervised channels of trade
and inspected packing houses. Of this volume
Eastern Canada contributed slightly over half while
the remainder originated in the Prairie Provinces.
Marketing during 1937 has been quoted because
in that year not only an all-time record of hog out
put in Canada was made, but of Canadian bacon ex
ported to Great Britain as well. Generous crops in
1936 encouraged an extension in pig breeding that
year which made itself felt very definitely in the
year following. Nature, however, played havoc with
crops during 1937 in many of the best producing
areas of Wester nCanada, forcing the liquidation
of breeding stock with a constant decline in mar
ketings during 1938. That year was the most profit
able one which the pig raiser has known for many a
day. ^However, indications are that the records es-
tablishw in 1937 will soon again be equalled if not
surpassed.
There are two chief markets upon which the’ pro
duct of the Canadian bacon pig is sold. One of them
is here at home and the other is Great Britain. The
people of Britain consume annually about a billion
pounds of bacon. Of this tremendous amount But-
ish production takes care of barely one-fourth. The
remainder must be supplied from Empire and foreign
sources. That is why Great Britain is the greatest
bacon market in the world and other countries
struggle for a place in it. Denmark supplies approx
imately half of* the British imports while Canada is
second in the running with about 22 per cent, a pro
portion equal to about 1,700,000 pigs.
The most important bacon product of the British
trade is the Wiltshire Side, a name derived from a
product of special excellence produced at one time
only in the county of Wiltshire, England, but which
has since become the standard cut and style of the
best in British bacon.
Pig improvement in the Dominion has been greatly
accelerated during the past fifteen years, but the
first efforts towards improvement took place over
half a century ago.

the bread industry has made rapid progress within

1937 and it is noted that the bread and bakery pro
ducts industry ranked fifth in the number of em
ployees and seventh in the amount of salaries and
wages paid. There were 21,000 persons employed
and they got close to $20,000,000. The selling
value of the goods was $76,000,000.
The materials which go into the making of the

After you have cleaned your lightwoodwork go over it with a coat ofwax, particularly around the doorswhere fingerprints are bound to col
lect. If you use one of the non-pol

and the wax will wash off whenever
you need to give a thorough clean

move spots from a waxed surface

Last week I went to a Sale—a
real country Auction and I came
home with some lovely old shells.
One has a delicate pink lining and
1 shall keep it to hold pansies and
other short-stemmed flowers. The
others I am taking to a florist to fill
with small plants that thrive in just
a little earth. So if you have any old
conch shells in your attic get them
out and clean them up and consider
their possibilities. The rage for Vic
torian things brings shells as well as
what-nots out of the garret.

New bird houses should be put up
well in advance of the arr ival of their
future tenants from the South. Orni
thologists tell us that even wrens
prefer weathered homes to brand
new ones.
Kitchen pots and pans can be kept
bright and shining if you follow a
few simple rules. Each material needs
special treatment to prolong its life
and beauty.
Glass baking dishes and glass
fiameware will remain clear if you
soak them first in warm water and
then scrape off the softened food
with a limber spatula. Polish with a
mild scouring powder, wash in hot
soap suds and rinse in scalding
water.
Enamelware must be handled care
fully because it chips and scratches
easily. Sudden changes in tempera
ture cause it to crack and chip too.
Soak in warm water and then polish
with fine scouring powder on a soft
cloth.
Aluminum will stand hard wear
and plenty of “elbow grease.” Scour
ring pads of steel wool containing a
scouring soap will keep aluminum
utensils bright and shining and help
you do the task quickly and easily.
Pans that have become discolored
after foods or water containing iron
or alkali have been cooked in them
should be treated with a solution of
vinegar and wajer. Allow two table
spoons of vinegar to a quart of water
and boil in the stained pan.

Rounded Out Fine Evening’s
Program.
One of the most enjoyable and
successful Ladies’ Nights arranged
by members of the Ingersoll Kiwanis
Club for their ladies and friends was
held in the Ingersoll Town Hall on
Thursday evening last. The hall was
attractively decorated and formed a
lovely setting for the affair. At the
head table places were arranged for
eight, and about the hall, were srtiall
tables seating four. Many sbftly
shaded floor lamps about the large
room added much to the setting.
Lovely spring flowers graced the
centres of some tables, while tall
yellow tapers in silver holders were
the centre pieces on others. Beautiful
rose corsages were provided for all
the ladies and the men were given
rose buttoniers.
Kiwanian Dr. C. A. Osborn, pre
sident of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club,
presided. He extended an official
welcome to the ladies and other
guests. A fine repast was provided
by the Ingersoll Inn, and hats and
novelties were given to all present.

violin, George Savage, piano aczor-
dian; George Fuller, drums; Walter

supper hour and also played for a
short period of dancing.
For the floor show and program,
Kiwanian Sam L. Shelton acted as
Master of Ceremonies. Kiwanian

sing-song with Kiwanian Lauric M-

Sommer, F. Earl Johnston, Rev. C.
D. Daniel and Royden G. Start, with
Miss Muriel Parker as accompanist.
Dance and song numbers by a trio
from London, Misses Ena Gooding,
Francis Sinclair and Nora Rooney,
were splendidly received. These in
cluded tap and toe numbers, a duet
number by Misses Sinclair and
Rooney and two numbers by the en
tire group, with Miss Parker as ac
companist. George Savage contribu
ted two piano accordian selections
and J. Everett Mires, Thaumatur-
gist, of London, entertained tho
gathering with two groups of sleight
of hand and mystic magic numbers.
The clever tricks of this artist kept
the audience laughing from the start
to the finish of his act, and howls
went forth when he snipped the
ends df the master of ceremonies’
tie. /By special request, Kiwanian
George H. Mason led the gathering
in singing, “Alouette” and Kiwanian
Harry Law of London, directed the
ladies in singing, “Let Me Call You
Sweetheart?’
Following the floor show, bridge
and Chinese checkers were played.
Kiwanian F. Heath Stone was the
winner at Chinese checkers, and
Miss Ruth A. Cuthbertson and Ki
wanian Al. Lawrence got the prizes
for high score at bridge. Mrs. H.
Grant Small was the winner of the
door prize.
The affair was well attended, and
the committees responsible for the
arrangements are to be congratulated
on staging such a fine “Ladies*
Night” entertainment.

MRS. COOK and Jier two
daughters live up to their
name. They have won nearly
eighty prizes for baking at the
Acton and Erin Fairs. “I really
believe,” says Mrs. Cook, “that
Robin Hood is the best flour.
I like it for cakes, cookies and
pies; and it makes such fine-
textured, beautiful white loaves
of bread. I do all my baking
with Robin Hood.”
It isn't by chance that more
Canadian women use Robin
Hood than any other flour.
Robin Hood is “the choice of
champions” because champions
are wise housewives who think
first of giving their families the
best in bread, cakes and pies.
And Robin Hood gives them
the best.

MRS. FRANK BOLESELECTED PRESIDENTLOCAL C.W.LAnnual Meeting Addressed byMrs. W. E. McMahon of La-Salette. Fine Program Provided by The Sacred Heart
Separate School Pupils.
The annual meeting of the Inger
soll subdivision of the Catholic Wo
men’s League of Canada was held
on Friday evening in the Sacred
Heart Hall with a record attendance.
The president, Miss L. Dolan, was in
charge and opened the meeting with
the League prayer. Prayers were
offered for recently deceased mem
bers and for the sick of the parish.
Rev. Father A. Fuerth addressed the
meeting, while Mrs. W. E. McMahon
of LaSalette, was the guest speaker
of the evening. Visitors were pres
ent from Tillsonburg and London,
making in all a very outstanding
meeting.
In her annual report-the* secre
tary, Mrs. F. House, reviewed the
activities of the local subdivision
recorded in the minutes of eight ex
ecutive, nine regular and two special
meetings. The treasurer, Miss Mary
Howe, reported a substantial cash
balance on hand. Reports of conven
ers of standing committees included
citizenship and organization, 115
members by Mrs. W. Kirwin; educa
tion, study clubs and national
scholarship by Miss Emma Pickard;
social welfare and child welfare by
I Mrs. Leo Kirwin; Sisters of Service
by Mrs. John Shearon; magazine by
Mrs. Frank Boles; lay retreats by
Mrs. M. McSherry; publicity by Mrs.
J. Kenny; propagation of the faith,
by Mrs. Frank Shannon.
Jack Warden was the efficient
chairman for the program presented
by the pupils nt the Sacred Heart
School. In introductory remarks he
said: "This evening's program is the
offering of the children of the Sac
red Heart School to those who have
been ever interested in our progress.
The yearly distribution of prizes
presented by the Catholic Women’s
League bears rich testimony to this
interest which has been unsl'nting in
appealing to our efforts and reward
ing our achievements. There are but
a few of the students on the pro
gram, but the music and the words
on their lips voice the gratitude of
all.”
The first number on the program
was a boys’ ensemble by Leo Val
lee, Bob. Warden, Charles Wheeler,
Jim Maurice, Bob. McDermott, John
Copeland and Jack McMillan, offer
ing “The Blacksmith,” by Mozart
and with Miss Helen Furlong as ac
companist. This was followed* by a
duet by Miss Mary Dunn and Miss
Grace Moyse, while Miss Anna Glet-
nak, a pupil of grade seven, sang a
song of the early Canadian voyageur,
“The Canoe Song.” This was fol
lowed by Tozer's “Ave Maria.” A
reading, “My Wild Irish Rose,” by
Miss Dorothy Duffy was fully appre
ciated as always and the girls’ double
trio, composed of the Misses Barbara
Desmond, Irene Fuller, Dolores Des
mond, "Celia Stevenson, Helen Fur
long and Corinne Valee, offered
Brahm’s “Lullaby,” and “Swing Low
Sweet Chariot." The numbers were'
unaccompanied, and the first was
given in two part arrangement, the
latter in three.part harmony. The
harmony in these numbers, as^well
as in the boys’ ensemble.. was perfect
and was a real credit to the trainers.
The concluding number on this part
of the program was the old sweet
favorite, “Mother Machree” by J.
Halter.
Mrs. W. Kirwin then introduced
the guest speaker, Mrs, MbMahon,
who talked on the duties of officers
of the Catholic Women’s League and
who very graciously answered the
various questions put before her
during the meeting. Mrs. McMahon
made a special appeal forTcontinued
and greater stfpport of the Byron
Chapel fund, for the hospital fund,
a fund created for the care and
guidance of wayward girls and for
the Sisters of Service, the home mis
sion order sponsored by the Catholic
Women’s League of Canada.
Rev. A. Fuerth congratulated the
members of the local subdivision on
their numerical strength and upon
the work of their organization since
its inception. Father Fuerth express
ed a wish that every woman in his
parish identify tierself with the
Catholic Women’s League, the only
national Catholic organization for
women in the Dominion of Canada.
Father Fuerth supplemented Mrs.
McMahon’s plea for generous sup
port of the Byron ahapel fund. The
reverent speaker dwelt on the won
derful work being done by the
medical and nursing staff of the
sanatorium. He told of the building
of the Catholic chapel, a gift of Sir
Phillip Pocock of London, and he

BAPTIST BROTHERHOODHELD FATHER ANDSON BANQUETFine Address Delivered byRev. S. M. Innman of London.The Men’s Brotherhood of theIngersoll Baptist Church held a
Father and Son Banquet in the Sun
day School room of the church on
Friday evening. About ninety were
in attendance and enjoyed the very
fine banquet supper and program.
The repast was prepared by a com
mittee representing the Ladies Aid
Society of which Mrs. John A. Bow
man was the chairman. The serving
was ably carried out by members of
the Sunday School class of which
Mrs. Al. Lawrence is the teacher.
The Brotherhood president, V. R.
Harrison, acted as toastmaster of the
evening and presided over the pro
gram which included the following
toasts: “The King,” “The Church,”
proposed by Frank Making t and re
sponded to by Rev. Geo. A. McLean,
minister of the congregation, “The
Fathers,” proposed by Sam Hamilton
nnd responded to by John A. Bow
man and “The Sons,” proposed by
Clarence Todd nnd responded to by
Bruce Borland.
His Worship, Mayor Alex. H. Ed
monds, spoke briefly, expressing best
wishes for the Brotherhood nnd a
male quartette composed of Messrs.
Making, Jones, Geddie and B. Bag
nall rendered a fine number. Rev.
G. A. McLean then introduced the
guest speaker, Rev. S. M. Innman,
pastor of the Talbot Street Baptist
Church, London, who gave an in
spiring address on the words of the
Apostle Paul, “Quit ye like men,”
which he said Dr. Moffatt rendered,
“Play the man.” Mr. Innman said
that these words were a challenge to
all men to, in the first place, play the
man, in the second place, play the
best man possible, and finally, play
the man that God wished you to play.
He said that this challenge accepted
made for most successful and the
happiest life possible. H. Barnett
in a few well chosen words moved a
hearty vote of thanks to the speaker
which passed with hearty and pro
longed applause.
During the supper hour the cus
tomary button-hole bouquet was pre
sented to two of the members of the
Brotherhood who had birthdays
since the last meeting, namely Mr.
D. Horseman and A. Weir, to S.
Whitford for his good work as chair
man of the social committee nnd to
R. Hamilton, who had four sons pre
sent.
Mrs. John A. Bowman and Mrs.
Al. Lawrence were extended votes
of thanks for themselves and the
committees which they convened and
they were presented with bouquets
of beautiful spring flowers.

her eyes.Marjorie passed her brother as hewas coming down the stairs, a kind oftriumph in his tread."Is Betty going?” she whispered as
she passed."I don’t dare ask," he grinned back.
"Leave it to Doc. Perhaps he canwork the trick!"But Betty was flying as fast as any
of then: to get ready. Here was achance to go %ut with a good-looking
young man and wear her new fur coatand her new gray hat. and Betty was
not the one to turn that down, even ifit was just a religious service in alittle old despised common chapel!
By common consent the doctor wentwith Betty.
It was a beautiful service. Therewas much singing and prayer, wonderful, tender prayer from both minister and people. There was a heartsearching talk from Gideon Reaver
pressing home the fact to each soulpresent that the Lord Jesus was bomand suffered and died just for him.And then after another tender brief-prayer Gideon called for his quartette,
and Ted calmly arose and led tlie wayto the front. .Marjorie as she walked
behind him marveled at his coolness,bis reverent attitude, as if he were ayoung priest going to perform his duty
at the altar. She found herself a littlenervous about Betty.
Bift Betty came, and her alto wasdeep and sweet.
Then they wju^iome with the memory of the lime chapel in its galagreenery, and the sweet songs, the-
tender looks on faces, the Christiantestimonies with which the meeting
bad closed, all a holy beautiful endingto a day that had been wonderful from
start to finish.Marjorie lay awake for a long timeand thought it over, step by step,thrilling anew at the memory. Therewas just one part she forgot to review,
and that was the interlude in whichEvan Brower figured.
And none the least among her memories was that of Gideon Reaver.Betty lav beside her, eyes staring
wide ahead at the blank wall of theroom in the darlmess. Betty was
thinking of the look on the doctor’sface when he had said, “Somethingreal about this place!” Wondering
about the doctor, thinking of all thefun he had made for them during the
afternoon and evening. Contrasting itwith a few experiences in her meagerpast that she had called "good titpes."
The next morning Marjorie became
aware of something strained in theatmosphere that hadn't been there theday before.
Finally she said to Betty, "Have Idone something wrong?”,
“Oh, mercy, no!” said Betty sharply. "It’s just seeing that high-and-
mlghty friend of yours, I suppose.Have you known him long?”‘"You mean Evan Brower? Oh., ves.

I’ve had other things to think aboutand settle. They had to come first before anything.”
“Well, haven’t you got them all settled ?’’
A gleam of something like joy flittedacross her face, but she shook herhead.
“Not all, yet.”“How long will it take?” There was
a trace of anger in his voice.“I’m not sure, but when I come home

That evening after the children were

Was Known As “Canada’s
Grand Old Man of Rail
roading.’*
The following item from the Van
couver “Daily Province” of March
20, has reference to the passing of
Thomas H. White, a brother of
Charles White, well-known Ingersoll
resident, who was manager of the
local branch of the Imperial Bank of
Canada for many years:
“Thomas Henry White, often
called “Canada’s grand old mun of
railroading”, died on Monday, Marcn
20th, at his home, 1676 West Six
teenth Street, at the age of 92. Mr.
White was born in St. Thomas, On
tario, graduated from Osgoode Hall,
Toronto in 1S7|JL but he never prac
tised law. Immediately after being
called to the Ontario bar he became
connected with construction Woik on
the Canadian Southern Railway.
“When that line was completed
he was associated with the double
tracking of the Great Western Rail
way, noA- a part of the Canadian
National. In 1S75 he came to British
Columbia as a member of the gov
ernment engineering staff occupied
with the first survey of the Canadian
Pacific. While still in his early thir
ties he became a senior engineer
locating what is now the Canadian
Pasific line through the Fraser
.Canyon.
“Climaxing the career of half a
century was his construction of what
is now the main line of the Canadian
National Railway through the
Rockies. He amazed the engineering
world by bringing a second railway
line through the Fraser Canyon to
Vancouver, with the same easy
grades as the first he had con
structed.
“One of his last feats before he
retired in 1922 was the construction
of the Canadian National terminal
< in Vancouver. It was he who trans
formed the mudflats of False Creek
into the valuable industrial area it
now is. The completion of the C. N.
R. branch line to the Okanagan
closed his career.
“Mr. White won international ac
claim from engineers all. over the
world for his survey work through
Yellowhead Pass and what is now
known as Jasper National Park when
he plotted a gentle grade that has
r.ot been duplicated by any other
transcontinental line.
“On January 27, 1938,' when he
celebrated his 90th birthday he re
ceived congratulations from all over
the continent. Among the messages
was one from S. J. Hungerford, pre
sident of the Canadian National
Railway^ from the Engineering In
stitute of Canada, of which he was a
life member, and from railway men
all over the world.
“Mr. White, who since his retire
ment lived at 1676 West Sixteenth
Street, is survived by a brother,
Charles White, living in Ingersoll,
Ontario; a cousin J. W. Mitchell in
Vancouver, and a nephew and a
niece.”

Time was whep the introduction of a new implement was a mem

Not in any period of the ninety years of Massey-Harris history
has such skill been employed in the designing and developing of
machines for the farm as there is today. The Company's engineers, in
their extensive field experiments, are constantly testing new ideas and

LEGION NOTES
Wv are sorry to hear about the
passing of an old comrade namely,
“Jock Stirling” of London. Jock was
known mainly through his en
deavor to help his comrades. Again
he was always on hand when the
veterans paraded, in fact he acted
as Sergt. Major only a short time
before his death. The veterans have
lost a great comrade.
We are all looking forward to the
Royal visit to Canada and we hope
that all ex-service men in this district
will be on hand the day Their Majes
ties arrive in Ingersoll. The visit will
be of great importance to two veter
ans, in town a& they will see their
“Colonel-in-Chief” again, as Her
Majesty is Cblonele-in-Chief to two
British regiments, namely The 42nd
Black Watch and the King’s Own
Yorkshire Light Infantry’.
Members of the local branch are
looking forward to a busy season, as
several important matters are being
dealt with.
