ing the brief stop here last week,
was Harry R. Cornell, Mutual street.
Queen Elizabeth asked him he said:
“To what unit do you belongT” to
which Mr. Cornell replied, "The 18th
Battalion, 5th Brigade, 2nd division.’’
She also enquired of him if all the
returned men on parade were from

presentation platform.
PICTURE OF PRINCESS
ELIZABETH PRESENTED
TO INGERSOLL SCHOOL
Official Presentation Cere
mony Held At Princess
Elizabeth School on Friday
Afternoon. Beautiful Photo
graph Was Gift From Her
Majesty.
It was most fitting that in the
same week King George VI and
Queen Elizabeth visited Ingersoll, a
beautiful photograph of Her Royal
Highness Princess Elizabeth, after
whom the former Ward School has
been named, was officially presented
to the pupils of the Princess Eliza
beth Public School, to be hung jn
the school.
The photograph was presented to
the school by Her Majesty Queen
Elizabeth, in reply to a request from
the Ingersoll Board of Education.
The local school, as far as it can be
ascertained, was the first to be named
after Her Royal Highness in Canada,
since she became heir apparent to
the British Throne.
Members of the Board of Educa
tion and parents of the pupils gath
ered at the school ^n Friday after
noon for the presentation ceremony
which was held in the kindergarten
room.
John P. Mayberry, principal of the
school, acted as chairman for the
short program. The pupils sang "0
Canada,” “For God and, King and
Right,” and “From Sea to Sea.”
The first two numbers were directed
by Miss Ruth A. Cuthbertson, sup
ervisor of music for the Ingersoll
Public Schools and Kindergarten
teacher at the Princess Elizabeth
School, while Miss Jean Borland led
the last selection. Mr. Mayberry ac
companied at the piano.
J. Ferris David, chairman of the
Board of Education, briefly address
ed the gathering, following which the
history of the school and the details
in connection with securing of the
royal picture was described by John
J. McLeod, secretary-treasurer of
the Board.
The photograph of Princess Eliz
abeth, which was suitably framed
along with the communications which
accompanied it and a card bearing
the date it was received by Tho
Ingersoll Board of Education, was
presented to Wesley Hislop, repre
senting the pupils of the school, by
Mr. R. A. Paterson, former Public
Schools Inspector for South Oxford.
Mr. Paterson was appointed inspect
or shortly following the completion
cf the school building and presented
a small picture of Her Royal High
ness to the school the day it was
officially christened, "Princess Eliza
beth Public School.” Mr. Paterson
urged the boys and girls to value the
photograph and guard it carefully as
it was rather out of the ordinary
for a school to have a picture of
the Princess after whom it was
named, presented by Her Majesty,the Queen. The young lad wh<? re
ceived the picture made a short
gracious speech of acceptance.
Gordon W. Daniels, chairman of
the Princess Elizabeth School Prop
erty. Committee, addressed a few
words to the gathering and requested
the principal to declare a holiday,
following the conclusion of the cere
mony by the singing of "God Save
the King.”

SCHOOL EXHIBITSATTRACTED MANYWork of Public School and
Collegiate Pupils Displayed
on Friday and Saturday at
Memorial School.
The annual exhibition of work
done by the students of the Home
Economics and General Shop Classes
at Victory Memorial Public School
and the Ingersoll Collegiate Institute
was displayed at Victory Memorial
Public School on Friday evening,
June 9th, from 7 to 10 o’clock, and
on Saturday afternoon, June 10th
from 2 until 5 o’clock.
The work was exhibited in the
kindergarten room, the home econ
omics room and the main hallway.
The number of articles were perhaps
not as large as in some former years,
but the work was all of a particu
larly high order and reflected credit
upon the teachers, Miss Marjorie F.
Nichol, of the Home Economic and
Johnston R. Cryderman, who has
charge of Manual Training and Gen
eral Shop Work.
There was a wide variety of ar
ticles made by the girls in the Home
Economics Classes while several large
pieces of fine furniture and a num
ber of small items were the work of
the boys. In one of the-tclass rooms
some art work and note books of the
pupils were also exhibited.
The exhibition was largely attend
ed and the many who viewed the
work marvelled at the quality of the
articles turned out by the pupils
and of the interest and attention they
apparently give to this departmenV'qf

HONS ROYAL JAMBOREE
MARRED BY WEATHER
Afternoon Program Was Fine
Success. Rain Interferred
With Band Concert and
Street Dance.
The Royal Jamboree sponsored by
the Ingersoll Lions Club to raise
funds to carry on welfare work, was
not the financial success that had
been hoped for. The parade and
afternoon program at Victoria Park
attracted several thousand people,
but a heavy storm about six o’clock
forced the cancellation of the Band
Concert at Memorial Park and rain
later in the evening caused the street
dance arranged for the market
square to be held in the town hall.
A box liftiosse game between two
Mohawk Indian teams from Brant
ford, proved a real attraction for the
afternoon. This was a keenly fought
battle and resulted in a 13 all tie.
The program was started shortly
after the Royal train drew away fioin
Ingersoll. The parade to the park at
tracted much attention. Taking part
in this were members of the Inger
soll Pipe Band, The Tillsonburg Citi
zens’ Ba ;d, The Ingersoll Collegiate
Institute Cadets, Members of “B”
Company Oxford Rifles and of the
Ingersoll Division of the Royal Can
adian Corps of Signals and a num
ber of ex-service men. Riders in fan- |
cy costumes on ponies and decor
ated bicycles. The prizes for the best
dressed pony ride rwent to Billie Mc
Farland and Tom Kirwin and for the
best decorated bicycle to Ross
Lcaper. The winners of the bicycle
race at the park were Donald Sivyer
and John Copeland and the prizes
for the pony race went to Leo Kir
win and Thos. Cornish. There were
many entries in the amateur contest
and the prize in this was awarded to
JVilliam Beacham of Putnam, who
played the electric guitar.
Tony Cryan and his well known or
chestra supplied the music for the
dancing in the evening and had the
weather been good this would have
been a big success as several hundred
were on hand when the rain started
to fall. A bingo booth was also set
up on the market sqpare and rain
interferred with this.
It is understood that the club will
not be financially in pocket from
their undertaking.

WILSON DISTRICT MASONSATTENDED CHURCH HEREMany Members of Craft Pres
ent For Annual Divine Ser
vice in the Trinity United
Church, Sunday Evening.
Fine Sermon by Rev. Charles
D. Daniel.
Despite the threatening clouds
and light showers, Masons from the
majority of the lodges in Wilson
District and other centres far and
near, gathered here on Sunday even
ing for thd Annual Masonic Chuich
Service of Wilson District, held in
Trinity United ,Church, wuieT the
auspices of King Hiram Lodge, No.
37, A. F. & A. M-, and St. John's
Lodge,' No. 68, A. F. & A. M.
The service was held in Ingersoll
this year, because of the fact, Rt.
Wor. Bro. Fred M. Smith, D.D.G.M.,
of Wilson District is a member of
the local lodges. The brethren assem
bled in the Masonic Hall at 6.30
o’clock and paraded to the church in
a body. Wor. Bro. R. Gilling of Wat
ford, a Past Master of St. John’s
Lodge acted as Director of Ceremon
ies and Parade Marshall. Rt. Wor.
Bro. Paul Kingston, Watford, D.D.G.
M. of Sarnia District, Very Wor. Bro.
George W, Poldon, Norwich, Grand
Steward, Very Wo. Bro. Earl Kitch-
ing, Woodstock, Grand Pursuivant
and a number of other past and pres
ent Grand Lodge Officers, were here
for the service. Lodges represented
included Simcoe, Norwich, Tillson
burg, Mt. Elgin, Woodstock, Prince
ton, Innerkip, Plattsvillc, Lakeside,
Embro, Thamesford, Dorchester,
London, Toronto and Watford.
The service at Trinity United
Church was in charge of the minister,
Bro. Rev. Charles D. Daniel, who
gave a very fine address to the breth
ren. He spoke on the subject,
"Strength Adorned with Beauty.”
Bro. Ewart. A. Bartley, musical dir
ector of the church, was at the organ
and directed the choir. His numbers
were Voluntary, "Jerusalem The
Golden.” Offertory, “Lullaby”,
Brahms; Posllude, "Hedge Roses,”
Schubert. The choir gave as an
anthem, “Glory To God," with the
quartette part taken by Mrs. Harold
Uren, Miss Mae Waters, Mr. L. M.
Sommer, Mr. J. P. Mayberry. Miss
Doris Shuttleworth, rendered in
splendid voice, the sqlo, "Tha Peni
tent.”
Wor. Bro. Dr. H. B. McKay District
Chaplain, read the Scripture lesson
from Romans 12:1-21.
Rev. Mr. Daniel took for his text,
part of the 22nd verse, of the 7t<i
chapter of 1st Kings, "On the top
of the pillars was lilywork.” In open
ing his sermon, he said that the Mas
onic Order was. recognized as the
greatest brotherhood of man for fra
ternal purposes in tAe world. It was
a beautiful system of morality, veiled
in allagory and illustrated by symbol.
During the course of his remarks
the speaker opened up for his hearers
something of tho grandeur that lies
behind one'of the symbols. He des
cribed building of King Solomon’s
temple as a work directed by God
and carried out by the co-operation
of man. It was a great and holy
temple, and on the top of the pillars
that supported the porchway or en
trance was lilywork. These pillars
were there for the purpose of
strength, Rev. Mr. Daniel pointed
out and this strength was crowned
with beauty.
"The world needs men today'who
have a very strong faith in God,”
declared Rev. Mr. Daniel, who ex
pressed the view that the establish
ment in the minds of men of a belief
in God will direct the trembling world
along a straight course. Rev. Mr-
Daniel held that we are living in an
age when so many want all the prizes
without paying the cost of having
them. “Free Masonry is not a relig
ion,” he declared, “nor does it take
the place of religion, and it will fail
in its purpose unless the members
find in it the achievement of the sacri
fice of the Man of Nazareth Himself.
The speaker in concluding his ad
dress threw out the challenge, “Let
us go forth as active and enthusiastic
champions of our fellows to emulate
the perfect life and work of our Sav
lour. To this perfect life I challenge
you as masons, to all of you who wor
ship here tonight, I issue tho same
challenge.”

Page 2 THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JUNE 15, 1939THE IN G ER SO LL T R IB U N EW. R. VEALEProprietor and EditorPHONES:—Tribune Office, IS - Residence, 442AMember ofThe Canadian Weekly Newspapers* AssociationTHURSDAY, JUNE 15th, 1939Ingersoll’* WelcomeIt was a welcome deep from the heart which themany thousands assembled here last Wednesday morning, June 7th, gave to Their Majesties. King GeorgeVI and Queen Elizabeth visited Ingersoll and the long
and eagerly anticipated event has passed into history.
The day was a beautiful one, even for June and con
sequently every feature of the welcome was seen at
its best. The King and Queen left the same impress
ion here as in the rest of Canada—a thoroughly hu
man and earnest young couple, the symbol of all that
is best of the British Monarchy.
The huge crowd, estimated at 20,000, gave a dem
onstration of loyalty that was almost overwhelming.
The cheering was tremendous as the Royal train
drew to a stop, but immediately Their Majesties
appeared there was a reverent silence as the large
assemblage bowed in homage to our most gracious
Sovereigns.
The King was the handsome, affable and courtly
gentleman he has been described, and the Queen
was truly lovely, radiant, gracious and charming, in
fact we fail to find adjectives to most fittingly pic
ture Her Majesty. To say that the Royal couple cap
tured the hearts of the people who saw them here,
is to express it mildly.The tumultuous demonstration in Ingersoll was just
a part of the spontaneous outbursts of rejoicing
that have been displayed all over Canada.
The long pent-up enthusiasm over* Their Majesties’
visit broke all bounds as the crowd gave vent to
expressions of loyalty and devotion to the reigning
Sovereign and His Consort. The King Emperor
and the Queen, heads of the greatest Empire that
the world has ever known, have demonstrated on
countless occasions that, though they have “walked
with kings, they have not lost the common touch.”
From the very beginning of their tour of more than
six thousand miles across the Dominion and back,
they have displayed a profound interest in the people,
and’ have delighted to meet them and mingle with
them.
The huge throng here, while it displayed its rejoic
ings in vociferous and prolonged cheering, preserved
an orderliness and a decorum that were a credit not
only to the town of Ingersoll but also to the Dom
inion. Nothing was wanting to make the welcome to
Qheir Majesties not only an outstanding event in the
history of Ingersoll but also a conspicuous feature
of the Royal Progress through the Dominion. The
enormous crowds of people in all directions, together
with the colorful decorations, presented a thrilling
and picturesque spectacle that will linger long in the
minds of those who witnessed it. Their Majesties
in stepping from the platform to talk with the vet
erans and shake hands, with them in a most cordial
manner, was greatly appreciated by the ex-service
men. As long as British Sovereigns retain the under
standing heart and the keen interest in their people
displayed by King George and Queen Elizabeth in
their progress through Canada, there will be no
question Its to the loyalty and devotion of their sub
jects to the Crown. Ingersoll throughout its history
has been an intensely patriotic town, but the visit of
the Royal Couple served to intensify this fervent
spirit.
The ciyic committee which was appointed to make
the arrangements for the notable demonstration,
andVall those who were responsible for seeing that
the ^details were carried out, deserve the highest
credit. It was an occasion that was unmarred by any
untoward incident s of any kind, and it has added
another notable chapter in the annals of Ingersoll.
Today** Fifth Story—-Baa*To a Canadian, bass is a fresh water fish, of whichthere are several varieties, but as a genus it is a member of the sea-perch family found in the Mediterranean and on the Atlantic coasts of Europe. It isa silvery, blue-backed fish, with a strong spinousdorsal fin, and grows to three feet in length. Thesesea-bass swim in shoals near the coast and oftenascend riven. On our Atlantic and Pacific coastssea-bass are caught, but the supply is small.However, what we mean when we talk about bassis a favorite fish caught in our lakes and rivers, andthe most highly prized is the small-mouthed BlackBass, the average size of which is 3 or 4 poundsIt has great fighting qualities that are a joy to theangler, and is in good supply in June and July. The
large-mouthed Black Bass is also popular.
The Grass or Calico Bass is a good pan fish avail
able during the summer months, but it is best in the
spring when the water is cold. The average weight
is around eight ounces.
The perch, allied to the bass, is a common little
fish found in the fresh waters of Canada and much
esteemed for food. The best known variety is th?
Pellow Perch, a cheap and palatable fish particularly
adapted for frying. It is in season during the sum
mer months and is caught in nets and by hook and
line. The average weight is about eight ounces.
In a great many waters of Canada which have
been depleted of bass, millions, of fingerling bass
have been placed in the w’ater and have thriven well.
In some places where at one time it was supposed that
the voracious pike had reduced the bass almost to

other foot and the bass are once again thriving in
large numbers.
Commercially there were 55,000 pounds of bass
caught and marketed last year, valued at $5,262.
No doubt there were many, many more pounds
caught by the holiday anglers of the country.

Flags
In May and June the people of Canada have seen
a blaze of color from coast to coast. During the tour
of Their Majesties across Canada, we are told, there
was not a village or hamlet but where some form ox
decoration was displayed.
* Banners and bunting have been flown from homes
and business and public places. Water craft and
land carrflrtT have heen decorated. The Union Jack
of course, predominated as it is the land flag of Can
ada as well as-of the Empire. Every British dominion
except Canada, however, has a distinctive flag of its
own, and all but the flag of Eire include the Union
Jack in the design.
Three ensigns were observed—the White, the Red
and the Blue. These originated when the British
fleets were divided into centre, van and rear. Each
division had its-'admiral, vice-admiral and rear-ad
miral, and in order that each flagship might be dis
tinguished, the three separate ensigns were designa
ted.The White Ensign bears the red cross of St.
George on a white field with the Union Jack in the
upper left hand corner.- None but ships of the Brit
ish or Dominion navies is permitted to use it, and
severe penalties are imposed when any other vessel
does so. The Blue Ensigp is confined to vessels in the
public service. The Red Ensign is for Jthe Mer
chant Marine.
Ships of the Royal Canadian navy fly the White
Ensign at the stern with the Canadian Blue Ensign
on the jack staff at the bow. It has Jthe Canadian
coat-of-arms on the fly. Canadian Government ships,
or ships of the Canadian Merchant Marine commanded
by Canadian or British reservists, fly at the stern
the Blue Ensign with the Canadian coat-of-arms on
the fly.
The Red Ensign was much jseen. on land these
* past two months, although it is not properly a land
flag. Sir John A. Macdonald first ordered the Red
Ensign to be used os'the Canadian flag and for many
years it was flown over all Canada’s public build-
„.ings. Late&rthe VniOn Jack was substituted. It is
improper to use the Unibn Jack as a marine "flag.

TheROYAL VISIT\ By 5. J. DORNAN, C.W.N.A. Ropresentatlveon th* Pre«* Pilot TrainFourth Release Covering the Visit ofTheir Majesties at the Pacific Coast,Return through Western Canada andNorthern and Western Ontario an opportunity to use the traintelephones. I was delighted to havea conversation on the telephonewith my wife and family at Alameda.Melville was illuminated and decorated in a real glorious manner andthe enthusiasm was so keen that thecrowds broke the police lines andvwarmed around the press train farinto the wee small hours of Sundaymorning, I am informed. The townwas a seething mass. There werepeople gathered at Melville from asfar north as Hudson Bay JunctionBefore dealing with the receptionof the Royal party at Victoria, I
wish to refer back to my notes
where I overlooked mention of
Kamloops, B.C., where the city and
surrounding community staged a
very splendid greeting for Their
Britannic Majesties. The station was
transformed by a galaxity of flags
and bunting, while the receiving
stand was brightly illuminated. It
was difficult to see or estimate the
number , of citizens gathered at this
point, owing to tho background
being in darkness, while the fore
ground was brightly lighted. I en
deavoured to make personal contact
with Ralph White, our esteemed
member, but it was impossible owing
to the huge, crowd. As the Pilot train
moved away, we tuned in the Royal
reception on the radio of the Press
Club car and it certainly was a
great demonstration of loyalty.
After, a delightful voyage from
Vancouver, the both steamers reach
ed Victoria, the capital city of BriU
ish Columbia, and the most westerly
point of the Royal tour. At Victoria
Their Majesties had crossed Canada
from coast to coast and had been
greeted by vociferous acclaim all
along the route. At Victoria the King
and Queen were as far from Ottawa,
the capital of Canada, as Otttawa is
from London, England. Having
arrived in Victoria about thirty min
utes ahead of the Royal Yacht, I
had just got located in the beautiful
C. P. R. Hotel, The Empress, when
the Royal steamer was entering the
harbour. Here was a sight and a
greeting which is beyond description.
The city and especially the Parlia
ment Buildings and the Empress
Hotel were silhouetted in bright
lights, while every type of steamer
nearby screamed a welcome on their
horns and whistles. Proceeded by
two desti’byers of the Royal Canad
ian Navy and followed by another
two, the entry-4<r Victoria was a real
naval greeting to Our Sailor King
anl his delightfully charming Queen.
The Royal party drove to Govern
ment House and were the guests of
th<^ Lieutenant Governor and Mrs.
llamber during their visit to the city.
Tuesday was a beautiful day;
weather and all functions were very
enjoyable. The picture at the steps
of the Parliament Buildings lent
much color to a historic occasion.
The Government lunch at the Em
press Hotel was a regal affair. Thehotel was bafticd in flowers, all pro
duced in the gardens of the C. P. R.
for the occasion. At this luncheon
His Majesty delivered a short ad
dress which was broadcast through
out most of the world by means of
the C.B.C. hookup. The most col
orful affair was the presentation of
The King’s Colors to the Royal Navy,
Pacific section. This took place on
Beacon Hill. Here is a natural beauty
spot which is surrounded by huge
hills and these hills were packed by
, 75,000 children and adults, while
the adjoining roads and buildings
were a mass of humanity, all waving
flags and cheering. His Majesty
dressed in His naval uniform as Ad
miral of the Fleet, left an impress
ion which will long live in the mem
ory of all who witnessed the cere
mony. The presentation was pre
ceded by a short religious service at
which the color was dedicated by
leading representatives of the ^Pro
testant and Catholic denominations.
After the presentation was complete
Their Majesties walked across the
road to a saluting stand and The
King stood at the salute, while the
Naval contingents f present marched
past. Her Majesty was dressed in a
light mauve colored ankle length
gown with large hat, .which was*in
matching color and turned up off
her^ace. She carried a large bouquet
of orchids. After the march past the
King inspected the guard and vet
erans and spent fifteen minutes talk
ing with a number of them.
Truly they came, they saw and
they conquered. Victoria took the
King and Queen to their hearts in
all sincerity. Resting at Government
House during the remainder of that
evening, Thejr Majesties witnessed a
most elaborate display of fireworks.
This display was augmented by a
very fine gesture from the shores of
the State of Washington, where our
American cousins held a fireworks
display. Departing from Victoria oq
Wednesday morning, the vicinity of
Ogden dock was thronged with
50,000 citizens desiring to catch a
last glimpse of their beloved Sover
eign and his charming Consort. The
Royal Steamer, “Prince Robert,” of
the Canadian National Steamships
line, made a record trip, owing to aslight delay of twenty-five minutes
in departure. Leaving Vancouver, the
Royal party drove to New Westmin
ster, where a glamorous welcome was
accorded. At Chilliwack in the
afternoon, the King and Queei>>re-
ceived another vociferous greeting.
At this beautiful little city there was
a short stop and His Worship, Mayor
Charles A. Barber and Mrs. Barber,
were presented to Their Majesties.
Mayor Barber then presented a num
ber of other prominent local citizens.
Travelling along the east bank of
the Fraser River towards Jasper
Park Lodge, in the beautiful National
Fark at Jasper, the Royal train made
a stop at Mount Robson on Thurs
day morning to view this, the highest
mountain, but naturae had draped
the huge peak in clouds and its ex
quisite grandeur could not be seen.
At Jasper, the famous beauty spot
in the rockies developed by the Can
adian National Railways, was to be
a rest day for Their Majesties and
suite, as well as the membrs on the
Pilot train. The King and Queen
were taken to Outlook Cabin on the
banks of the lake and here the Royal
Standard was hoisted for the first
time it ever flew over a log cabin. In
this log cabin,, Their Majesties were
alone to enjoy an experience they
seldom, if ever, get. Soon after the
arrival of Their Majesties at the cab
in, they decided to go out and after
a short drive they both walked miles
for exercise.
During the early afternoon The
King and Queen and some members
of their suite drove to Mount Edith
Cuvell. On this trip there were about
thirty of the Pilot train party, com
posed of writers and photographers
and it -was a most impressive sight.
I have never had such a deep emo
tion as when I walked to the foot
of the huge-glazier. All in all the day
at Jasper was an event of a life
time. On the way back to the Lodge
some of the press party and photo
graphers sawr a cow moose and-de
cided to get out and take pictures,
but their venture was short lived
for the monster charged at them
and they all ran ror safety. The
reason for the resentment of the
animal was discovered shortly. Sev
eral members of its family were
nearby and they were just infants.
Bear is plentiful around here but
harmless if not disturbed.
Edmonton weather was real
King’s type. As the train pulled into
the station it was evident that the
Alberta capital was in a gala attire.
One outstanding feature was Portage
Avenue, after to-day to be known as
King’s Way, had two miles of stands
erected on each side and it .was a
wonderful sight packed with 35,000
school children and another 50,000
adults. Qn Arrival of the -Pilot train,
1 was‘greeted by a regular avalanche
of Publishers of Alberta weekly
papers. Amongst those, I remember
were H. T. Halliwell of Coleman; R.
C. Jessup of MacLeod; H. T. Thun-
ell of Vikjng; Harry J. Ford of La
combe; W. H. Schierholtz of Rocky
Mountain House; Charlie Clark of
High River; Fred Turnbull of Red
Deer; W. H. Gooder of Didsbury;
Miss Hazel and Mrs. McCrea of
Hanna; Mrs. A. M. Moore of Strath
more; Mrs. F. J. Sleight of Camrose,
and C. W. Frederick of Grand
Prairie. During the evening the press
party were entertained at dinner by
the Edmonton Journal and Edmon
ton Bulletin. This was a very fine
respite for the writers after a/nectic
six hours of assignments.
Leaving Edmonton we next passed
through Biggar, Sask., where a very
fine display of loyalty was evident.
The pilot train made a very short
stop but the Royal train was given a
rousing reception. Their Majesties
commanded the train to stop in that'
vicinity and they went for a walk.
Watrous, the location of the new
50,000-watt C.B.C. station CKB was
a magnificent sight. The populace
from the surrounding communities
were gathered in thousands and gave
a glorious account of themselves by
prolonged cheering and waving of
flags. Here I met Jim McGowan and
his aide, Lew McKenzie, as well at
Leon Garratt, all connected with the
Watrous press.
Touchwood had a great display of
love and affection for their gracious
Sovereigns. The crowds lined along
the .railway and especially at the
station were jubilant
Melville, the focal point for many
communities, around, including the.
progressive city of Yorkton, was a
dense mass of humanity when the
press train arrived. Here we re
mained for the night and It gave us
to as far south as Oxbow and Es-tevan.
Sunday morning, by Royal com
mand, Their Majesties attended a
special service in the United Church
of Canada at Portage la Prairie.
Arriving in Winnipeg shortly after
11 a.m., I had a walk around the
Union Station and there found that
the soldier patients from Deer Lodge
Hospital had been brought to the
station by special order from Ottawa.
(This item was missed by some error
on the westward trip) and there
awaited Their Majesties arrival.
Only the patients *of the hospital
with the officials and a few provincial
dignitaries were present. While in
Winnipeg both trains were given at
tention, and when they left for the
long run to Sudbury, they were shin
ing and fully serviced. It is worthy
of mention that the railway men at
all points were well drilled in their
duties and not a moment was lost.
TIT BITS: The pilot train carries
25 members of the R.C.M.P. under
the command of Major (Superinten
dent) Kemp of Ottawa. We have, also
Inspector Canning of Scotland Yard.
Walter Scott Thompson, Chairman of
the Press Sub-committee, is along
and- it was he, with his world wide
experience, who planned this train
and all its details. There has not
been one hitch as yet and the heav
iest part of the trip is over. Walter
has with him his own picked staff of
assistants. Only three tickets were
available for the Canadian writers
to attend the much publicised gar
den party to be given in honor ox
Their Majesties, by Sir Ronald and
Lady Lindsay, at the British Embassy
in Washington, D.C. Twenty names
were placed in a hat in order to pick
those who were to attend and believe
it or not the C.W.N.A. was the first
name drawn. American writers
claim that at least 50,000 applica
tions were received for invitations to
this function. Only 1300 will be
present. It takes place on Thursday
afternoon.
At Ridditt, Man., on Sunday, we
witnessed a very lovely sight. Here
a large gathering was present and
all from some considerable distance.
Amongst this crowd ther£ were 150
pupils from Cecelia Jeffrey* Presby
terian Indian School, Along with
their teachers. I met a friend at this
point who is on the staff of this
school, Miss Valena Mahood. The
school had its band along and ren
dered several very pleasing select
ions. The school is located at Kee
watin, Ont.
Sioux Lookout had another large
gathering. At this point we were run
ning about one hour behind time.
Sudbury presented a wonderful
sight. 15,000 school children were
gathered together and greeted Their
Majesties’ with singing. In all there
were 100,000 persons in this city
gathered together from many points
in Northern Ontario. The crowd in
cluded 800 Mayors, Reeves and
Councillors from the communities
mentioned. While awaiting the Royal
party a little lad called Kenneth
Webster was asked his opinion of
the glorious sight he was witnessing
and his main impression was the mot
orcycle police, who were patrolling
the streets and later acted as es
corts for Their Majesties and party.
He, incidentally, said Hello to his
dad over the radio.
By special arrangement Their
Majesties and a select party were
taken down the International-Nickel
(Frood Mifie), to a depth of 2,800
feet. Dressed in oil skin covers, the
party spent nearly one hour in the
mine and vicinity. Some expressions
heard at Sudbury: “My, oh my,
isn’t she lovely; really more lovely
than I ever dreamed.” “I thought the
newspapers had gone nuts on the
Queen, but they only told half the
truth; she is indeed grand.’ And so
on and so on.
Toronto gave the King and Queen
another great acclaim; the thirty
minutes stop at the Queen City was
informal. However many thousands
of citizens made it a point to be in
the vicinity of the- Union Station to
greet Their Majesties. In spite of all
that the police could do the cro,wd
broke the lines and swarmed around
the Royal car and were rewarded
with a gracious reception by both of
Their Majesties,
En route to Toronto at a farming
community where the Royal train
halted to be serviced, a sturdy far
mer shouted, “Hi-ya, King,” to which
His Majesty replied, “I’m fine. How
are you?”
Guelph rendered a good account
of itself and community by turning
out in thousands; the scheduled stop
at this city was extended considerably as the King and Queen walkedabout amongst the veterans andtalked with' scores of them. PrimeMinister Mackenzie King did a magnanimous thing when he called especially for Col. George Drew, leader of the Conservative opposition inthe Ontario legislature, and had himagain presented to Their Majesties.Colonel Drew was taken by surpriseand the surprise was quite evidentin his manner, but he soon becamecool and collected and chatted withboth the King and Queen. Kitchener,Stratford, St. Marys, Glencoe and
London, were all repetitions of what
has been taking place throughout
western Ontario.
Wednesday we passed through
Ingersoll, after spending the night
at London. At this point, also at
Woodstock, Paris Junction, Brant
ford and Hamilton, the loyalty and
affection displayed for Their Majes
ties was colossal. As I bring this
story to a close as we approach
Niagara Falls, I have been deeply
impressed with the fervor and ex-
hileration which the loyal province
of Ontario has displayed towards our
Sovereigns.
Tit-bits: Her Majesty expressed
last evening a desire to bring her
two daughters to Canada to see this
beautiful country; she statea that
she would like to be along with them,
and she selected the month of June
for the visit. I stopped off the Royal
press train for a few hours in Tor
onto and while there I was the target
for numerous questions. »A1I I could
say, and it was said in all sincerity,
the entire-trip has been grand, glor
ious and triumphal one which will
long remain in the memory of tho
3,500,000. citizens who have already
seen Their Majesties this far. The
King has broken every known regula
tion which usually governs 'the ap
pearance of His Majesty,in public;
he has walked away from the guards
which were to protect his person and
that of his beloved and charming
Consort; he has shaken hands with
ten times as many of the ordinary
people as he has with those officially
presented to him; in fact, both Their
Majesties have completely won the
entire populace, of all parts, by
their very democratic yet aristocratic
bearing.
Niagara Falls: The reception here
was just like the falls, it was terrific;
the influx of visitors from the U.S.A- added to many thousands from
‘all this corner of Ontario, made a
great impression. At this point it
was my extremely good fortune to
meet Mr and Mrs. Sam Charters and
Mr. and Mrs. Clarence V. Charters,
all of Brampton, Ont. This chance
meeting with valued friends made
the visit here very pleasant in spite
of a most ridiculous display of police
precautions. The Brock Hotel
was taken over^by the police fully an
hour before Their Majesties and en
tourage arrived; it was utterly Im
possible to get ainything to eat,
either in or out of the hotel, and
guests and others were jostled and
ordered around as if they were non
British subjects. Precaution is bet
ter than cure, but the use of a little
judgment would make the problem
much easier for all concerned. Add
ed to the tremendous clamor of the
huge crow*d was the stupendous roar
of the falls as (the King and Queen
stepped out on the balcony of the
hotel. Later tonight the water falls
will be illuminated and this will be
a sight for those who have not prev
iously' enjoyed same. >It was notice
able that there were very; few flags
displayed on the American -side,
but this will be corrected later, I
fully expect. Now for the Unued
States.

ROY D. KERBY, TORONTOWAS KIWANIS SPEAKER“Better Relations With ThePublic,” Was Subject of Address By Public Relation*Manager of General Motors Product* of CanadaLimited.Member*' of the Ingersoll KiwanisClub heard a very fine address, byRoy D. Kerby, Toronto, public relations manager of General Motors
Products of Canada Limited, who
was the speaker at their regular
meeting on Thursday evening last at
the Ingersoll Inn. Kiwanian Dr. C.
A. Osborn, president of the Ingersoll
Club, occupied the chair and Dr. J.
M. Rogers, a former member of the
club and a friend of Mr. Kerby,
introduced him to the gathering.
The subject of Mr. Kerby's talk
was “Better Relations with the Pub
lic.” It was filled with many helpful
suggestions for his audience and his
remarks were listened to with the
greatest interest. He dealt with tiu
everyday thoughts with everyday
people and one of his main appeals
to all business men was to “play the
game.”
“If you are not public relations
minded you have no place in this or
any other service club,” said Mr.
Kerby at the outset of his talk. “A
quarter of a million members of ser
vice clubs attend meetings once u
week in the United .States and Can
ada, and they do not do this because
they merely want to see each other.
In a place the size of Ingersoll this
especially applies for you can quite
easily see and talk with each other
in business or in a friendly game of
bridge or spot. If you think seriously
on this question the most of you will
readily agree that you come together
at a time like this to hear a speaker-
tell you something you don’t know
or something that you possibly do
know and need to be reminded of.
Meetings these days are dealing ser
iously with the thought of public re-,
lations and I believe the year 1940
will go down in the annals of busi
ness history as a year of better pub
lic relations. Or I might* call it the
building of goodwill and if you look
back 1900 years ago gentlemen, you
will see that this is nothing new for
the greatest Exponent of good-will
was on this earth preaching His
gospel of ‘peace on earth, good-will
to men.’
“The trouble with many of us to
day is that we are so very much ab
sorbed with our family or our busi
ness affairs that we are entirely
forgetting the other fellow. I’ve been
in big business and in little business
and I really believe the average man
can be more happy in the latter, but
In all alike there must be good
public relations. And for the former
there should be monuments built,
for it was they who started big
business that made possible much of
the good living in this country today.
These are the “forgotten men” to
whom we owe much.”
The speaker went on to tel), of
vqj-ious periods of business history
dating from 1903 and from then on,
to 1918 he said was a period of or
ganization or construction. For the
next ten years there was a period
of production for the incessant de
mand of the buying public more than
equalled the production of that per
iod. Fropi that period came the period
of mass selling and’ the distribution
or merchandising of the materials
made, for good business creates a
circle of buying which lowers the
cost of goods and creates more busi
ness to create in turn more need for
production. The speaker felt that the
period from 1938 would be a period
of good-will. At one of these periods
there just wasn’t time to think much
about good-will relations in business,
that is in the tremendous selling
years, but when the depression came
public started to think/ They had
the time antf* they were being told
how—by press and by radio.
“Do not forget.” said the speaker
“that favorable public opinion is the
greatest asset a' business man can
possess. The great Lincoln knew this
when he said ‘give me the good-will
of the army and the greatest good
can be accomplished.’ When we think
of the great means of transporta
tion in this day and age—the tele
phone, the telegraph, the wonderful
radio, air mail and such like, we
must realize that overnight an im
pression, favorable or otherwise, can
be formed by the general public, tho
mass buyers. No matter what your
business might be therefore, you are
your own chief public relations offi
cer and as you handle the situation as
pertains to your own business so will
the people who work for you respond,
or fail to. Your employee then i*
your first consideration. Have him
be a good employee and a good pub
lic relations person. It’s the money
in the pockets of the consumer that
is going to keep you in or put you
out of business as they decide to
spend or keep that money. It isn’t

“Have confidence in your em
ployee and in the public then,” con
tinued the speaker, “for confidence is
the basis of all good business. And in
advertising tell the truth, sinceite
and. informative. Remember the story
of the satisfied customer. There’s
never been a substitute discovered
for word of mouth advertising which
follows the accepted trend of ad
vertising leading up to purchasing by
the customer. It’s the most potent
kind of advertising- you can find,
and this brings me to the thought of
the vast abuse of the telephone.
That instrument can be used to cre
ate more ill-will with disastrous re
sults than anything I know. If put
in the hands of unscrupulous people
it can soon become a menace to pub
lic relations and good business.
“There’s another person to remem
ber when you are in business, and
that is the commercial traveller Aow
elevated to the position of ‘ambassa-
do^of good-will’,’’ continued Mr.
Kerby. "When he comes to see you
don’t keep him waiting too long as I
know many, have been kept. Remem
ber he can do you.harm, or speak a
good, word for you. Have your sales
force or our business helpers smile
when dealing with the public in their
work for there's nothing like giving
wrinkles a rest once in a while,” said
the speaker.
“There are more companies em
ploying public relations men today
than was ever dreamed of in business,” said Mr. Kerby in closing. I
“Some firms and companies have,
even put up money to spend on re
search work to find out what the
public wants. The two largest ans
wers to this question that I recently
noted were, first- health and second,
the knowledge of how to get along
with people. This very answer con
vinces us that people really are gen
uine in this matter of trying to*
create better relations among men
and women. Remember, not to take
the long view is to be short-sighted.
It’s os foolish as not taking out any
life-insurance. Be a good public re
lations man—remember if you were
to go out fishing you wouldn’t take
strawberries to bait yjur fish hook
with. The future of 'business—-big
and little—is not going to be in the
hands of the man who has technical
education alone but will also be
swayed by the man who will study
the human elements, the one who will
remember that business is business
but men are men. To have faith in
business is to remember the golden
rule—remember to have love and
toleration for your friend and
brother.
Kiwanian Arthur E. Izzard ex
pressed the thanks of the gathering
to Mr. Kerby for this exceptionally
fine address.
There was a new attendant at theSpiritualist circle, and he had form
erly been employed in a big drapery
shop. The fact came to light when
a client reqested him to tell the
medium she wished to speak with a
Mr. Green. “Certainly, * madam,”
said the attendant “Can you give
me his Christian, name?”
“I’m afraid I have forgotten it
but he died quite a short time ago.”
The attendant cleared his throat
and approached the medium. “Please
show the lady some of the latest
shades of Green,” he said.

Leading Dairy Herds in Ontario,

contributed fine Holstein-Friesians,

of purebreds on display in "The

The widespread practice of im

breeding is a major objective of
leaders in dairying. The superior
economic worth of purebreds has
been one of the major factors in the
improvement of dairy cattle in North

The new weed killer has no fire

weed killers formerly in use, author

‘A spray in time saves nine.’
That’s why road officials are ready
to start at once in an effort to elim*

DRESSMAKER HADTO QUIT SEWINGHands Swolleh withRheumatismPity this poor dressmaker! Nine-tenths of her work consists of sewing—and she was not able to sew.Rheumatism in the hands was hertrouble, and she tried any number ofleniedie#. But nothing helped much—until she came to Kruschen.“Three-and-a-ha|f years ago,” shewrites, "I had a violent attack ofrheumatic pains. My feet and handswere swollen. The pain was terrible.I was really quite crippled andhelpless.
“I tried many remedies withoutsuccess. Then I started on Kruschen
Salts, and after one month, I could
stand up again. Then, I walked witha cane. In three months, I was quij.e
well again. As I a» a dressmaker,you can imagine what it meant to menot to be able to work my sewing
machine. What a treat to be able to
walk, to.work, and to be free frompain,”—(Mrs.) E. S.
The stabbing pains of rheumatismare often caused by needle-pointedcrystals of uric acid lodging in thejoints. Kruschen brings relief because it helps to dissolve those troubling crystals and to expel them fromthe system.

Pap' 6 THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JUNE 15, 1939INTO THESUNSETV B y JACKSON GREGORYstreamed, and that she was laughing.Men clumped along the sidewalk,most of them dusty and in highheeled boots with dragging spurs,with big hats, the brims pushedback, and with flapping, open vests.He stopped fascinated before awindow full of things to make hismouth water; some of them looked
almost too pretty to eat.Barry went in. At one side wasa counter, at the other a series of
small tabUs with low partitionsjutting out from the wall to sepa
rate them. He sat down and whena waiter came said, after drawing a
long breath:“I want a hunk of choc’late cakeand a hunk of the white cake that's
yellow inside and some sody water."He had disposed of perhaps half
of the chocolate cake and two-thirds of the white one, when hesaw the big blond man and the little girl come in; they went to atable next to his but were hidden,
when they sat down, by the partition. The waiter almost ran to
secvejhcm.
Barry wolfed down the rest of his
cake and caught the waiter’s eye.
“I didn't bring any real moneytilong,” he said, keeping his voicedown. “You can take the price outof this.”
He held a little pile of dust andfine grains of gold in his palm. In
stinctively he refrained from showing all he had.
The waiter looked startled. “Wait* shake,” he said, and departed.Barry, leaning out from his cubby
hole, saw him go out on the sidewalk and disappear; he was seeking
the proprietor.Presently a stocky, sandy haired
man with slate-blue eyes and aconstant blink, eame and stood overBarry and peered at what was inhis hand.“Two pieces o’ fancy cake an’sody?" he said. He scooped the
content* of Barry’s hand, into hi*
own. "All right, buddy; we’ll callit square this time,” he s?id.
And then Barry was conscious ofthe big blond man, the Judge, stand
ing up, towering over the parthron.Barry looked straight into a pairof bold, very dark brown eyes.
Second InstallmentSYNOPSISBarry H avert I leave* hl* Tex** hometo see th* country, meet* a man whohas just been shot who turn* out tobe a cousin of hl*. Jesse Conroy.Harry helps take care of his woundsand Jesse gives Barry his gun, a veryunusual one. When they part Barryleaves for home but tlnds the familyIs no longer there. When he Is leavinghe suddenly comes across a dead manwho turns out to be hl* brother Robert
He knew it was Robert the in-»tant he glimpsed the sprawlingform, even before he looked for anyface, and he knew too that he wasdead. So it was a burning-eyed,
btanched-faced, tragic boy whoburst in upon the Humphreys, saying thickly as they stared at him:
"He’s dead Robert, he’s dead.Somebody killed him. Who? I
want to know who? You tell me,Tex Humphreys!"
Molly went back with him andTex to where the body lay. a Mollywho was all melting black eyes
from which the tears streamed unceasingly.Tex sat a long while on his heels,then looked straight up into Barry'shardened face.“He rode off this way late yes-tiddy," he said, speaking softly and
drawlingly. ‘‘Somebody bushwhacked him. Stood right overyander, by that big tree. Shot him
clean through the haid.”He got up and moved about, look
ing for sign. ‘ Here’s where hestood, Barry. He was afoot; didn'thave any hoss. An’ Robert did;
he “was ridin’ my Coaly. My be*’hoss, my Mex saddle an' bridle—
all gone! Somebody might mebbethought he was wo’th killin' for that
outfit; somebody afoot that wanteda hoss real bad; somebody mebbethe law was after,”
"We c'n follow the tracks," »aidBarry. "We c’n see which way he
rode off."Tex agreed in all heartiness.They hastened back to Humphreys’
ranch for horses. They put in aClogged, determined day, and in the
end turned back little wiser thanwhen they started.
That night Barry shook his headat Tex Humphreys’ invitation to
;tay. and turned under the statstoward his own place.
He walked half the night before
he rolled exhausted into his blanketand slept. When he awoke he was
so still and sore that1 he couldscarcely stand; he had less use fora horse than ever before, and vowed
he would never fork another. Ina pink dawn with a chill mountain
wind blowing he breakfasted androlled his pack and went on.
It wasfelmost a day’s trip, northand west, to the spot where he hadwatched the two border crossbreeds engaged in their primitivegold-gleaning operations.
Down in the ravine he set hisrifle aside, pulled off his worn boots,
rolled up his overalls and went towork. He didn't have a pan as the
others had. but he did have bigstrong capable hands. He found asandy place between two big rocks,
scooped up a Jot of the wet sandand smeared it out thin and smooth
on top of the flatter boulder. Thenhe began picking through it, dis
turbing particles with a horny fingernail. seeking the soft reddishpellets.
Next morning he tried higher upstream. For hours he mounted,
trying in all sorts of places. Before noon he found a pothole underwater at the lower end of a pool.
He spent about two hours at thathole, thinking that he might as well
clean it out while he was at it; hecould find ^|^her next time. Thenfiguring that he must have about allthe gold he would need for thethings he wanted in town, he start
ed back cabinward. Hardly started,he stopped and. looked back, unde
cided. He’d want to get a lot ofshells for his new six-gun, a ter
rible lot of ’em; he wonderedwhether he had gold enough.
The next morning he set out. Itwas a long walk ,to Tylersville;Jesse had told him ft must be thirtyforty mile. '
Tylersville, a ragged and crooked
cow town, sprawled in what hadbeen once known. as CottonwoodFlats.
When a buckboard came dashingaround a far corner in an enormous
cloud of dust, he drew back againsta wall as though afraid of being
run down, even on a sidewalk.Then, seeing it close as it-shot onby. he was impressed by its ele
gance. Two sleek, beautiful, ma.tchedbays with floating silver manes
drew it; an imposing figure of aman drove it, a handsome big blondman
At his side was a little girl; shelooked very little indeed beside the
man’s imposing bulk, and 'Shout allthat Barry could make of her asshe went past was that she too wore
blue and that she had a big whitehat from which blue ribbons
"What is it, Al?” the Judge askedthe proprietor. “Doesn't happen tobe gold now, does it?"
Al whirled.about. "Hello, Judge,"he said. "I didn't see you and MissLucy."
"I reckon not.” The Judgesmiled after a fashion to warm aman. At least, so Barry thought.Al said hurriedly:
"I was jus’ goin’ to step out an’get it weighed so’s I could give thisyoung feller his change ”
“Sure,” smiled the Judge. "Sure.”
He extended his hand and Alsaid, “Shore, Judge,” and gave himthe gold. Scarcely glancing at it,
the Judge returned it to Barry.“Step right next door into the
General Hardware Store,” he said.“You can get it weighed there and
you'll get honest weight. I’ll payfor your lunch here."
“I’m obliged. Judge,” said Barry,"but I like to pay my own way."
The Judge laughed; Barry sawMiss Lucy’? bright eyes peeking outat him from behind the big man.
"It won’t, amount to much, Ireckon,” the Judge said, "and you
can pay me back. Go ahead intothe store; I’m dropping in theremyself in a minute."So Barry thanked him again and
took his hat and rifle and went out,conscious all the while of thoselively bright eyes of Miss. I.ucv’s.
“She is real pretty.” he thought.Something like Sister Lucy, too."
It was but a few steps to thestore As Barry stepped in hethought: “Judge huh? Why, he's
Judge Blue! Sure to be. And hecan tell me about Lucy and all mvfolks!" To the man behind the
counter he said. "I want to buysome things. The Judge told me

you. could weigh my gold for me."“I shore can if you ain’t got scmuch as to break my scales down,”the storekeeper admitted. “Whatdo you want to buy?"
“Some shells for my six-gun,"
said Barry. "This One." He un-holstered it and put it on the coun
ter “Forty-fives,” he said.
The storekeper reached for the
gun; he turned it over slowly in hishand, seeming to study it. .“Where’d you get this gun?” he
asked.“It's mine," said Barry. "Got any
shells for it?”"Seems like I’ve heard of a gunlike this before,” said the other,
still turning it over. "Don't knowwhat kind of wood this is; manza-
nita maybe, but it’s so bloody-reda man sort of remembers it. Where’d
you say you got it?""Didn’t say," answered Barry."Got any shells for it?""That gun belonged once to akiller, kid. They call him the La
redo Kid.”"What’s he look like?" asked
Barry.“Never saw him, an’ glad of it.You ain't him, are you?"
"No. And I guess there's otherguns like this. Let’s see your
shells.”He bolstered the slx-^un; he
meant to holster further discussionalong with It.
Just then the Judge came in.“Hello, Digby," he said. "I toldthis young man you could handle
his gold for him. Fix him up allright?”
"Evenin’, Judge," said Digby.“Let the Judge sec your gun. kid.”
"He says one like this belongedto the Laredo Kid,” said Barry, and
held it out for the Judge to look at.The Judge seemed interested; he
handled the heavy weapon just asthe storekeeper had done, then hand
ed it back without saying anything.
“I asked him where he got It at.”said Digby.
The Judge's lips twitched into asmile. “What did he say?” heasked of Digby though he wa* looking straight at Barry.“He didn't say,” snorted Digby,

right, all right," muttered Digby.“Pour out your dust, young feller,
an’ I’ll tell you how much.”
This time Barry emptied his
pouch on a piece of wrapping paper, making a small neat gold hill.
Digby jerked up his brows but saidnothing; he*did look sharply at theJudge. This time it was the'Judgewho spoke, briskly.
"Look here young fellow, I don’t
know where you got that—’’
“It’s mine all right," said Barry.
To Digby he said, “Are you goin'to weigh it?” _
‘‘But I am going to tell you some- vthing. The Judge’s voice was
compelling and Barry looked' intothat pair of bold, leaf-brown- eyes.“\ou went the right place when
you showed your'gold in the restaurant if you want word of it all
over town inside half an hour. Well,it’s your business and you look drybehind the ears.” He turned and
went out. merely saying over his ♦
shoulder from the door: "If you getin trouble it’s your doing, not mine.
But let me know. Ju*.t tell anybody you're a friend of mine. It ’might help.”
"Who’s he?” asked Barry of thestorekeeper. The other stared.
"Hell, don’t you know him? He’sJudge Parker Blue.” ->
m "Thought so,” nodded Barry."How much in money docs itweigh ?’’
"Four hundred fifty dollars,”
snorted the storekeeper. “Want totake it all out in ca'tridges, hub?”
"Give me the money," Barry toldhim. "Then I'll do some buyin'.'*

THUMB-SUCKING
* —By J. W. S. McCullough,—
M.D., D.P.H. of the
Health League of Canada
According to Dr. Earl Swinehart,
an American dentist, thumb-sucking
causes retarded growth,, unsound
sleep, tloss of appetite, inferiority
complex and crooked teeth in child
ren addicted to the practice. "These
findings,” says Dr. Swinehart, “are
based on a five years’ study of 38
boy and girl delinquents in this respect.”
He says that a cross-section of
"millions of American children habit
ually suck their thumbs.”
One thinks that the learhed essay
ist has based his indictment on too
slender grounds. Thirty-eight cases
are not sufficient upon* which to
risk such dogmatic conclusions.
One doubts >if thumb-sucking is
responsible for all the ills attributed
to it by the Baltimore dentist. At
any rate one awaits with interest
liny real proof of his assertions.
No doubt that thousands of child
ren suck their thumbs, and it is pos
sible as the doctor concludes, that
"deceit, resentment, and inferiority
complexes develop in such children
because they are continually har
assed by scolding, shaming and pun
ishment.” While this supposition is by
no means proven, one thinks that the
best treatment for such child habits
is to leave them severely alone. Too
much attention to any habit of a
child is liable to focus the little one’s
mind on the habit, and to perpetu
ate, rather than check it.
Mothers with thumb-sucking child
ren had better ignore, and have
everyone else in contact with the
child ignore the habit Experience
seems to indicate that habits in chil
dren disappear in inverse ratio to
the attention paid to them.

COUNTRY HOMES WANTEDFOR CITY CHILDRENNeighborhood Workers’ Association Anxious To PlaceCity Children In CountryFor Two Weeks’ HolidaysThis Summer.Twenty years ago an idea was bornin the minds of officials of the Neighborhood Workers’ Association ofToronto. In several rural news
papers a plea was made for country
people to extend their hospitality,
without remuneration, to one or more
children from the city during the
hot summer months. In that sum
mer sixty children enjoyed a holiday
such as they had never known be
fore. Hostesses were asked wherever
possible to receive two children at
the same time.
From that small beginning the idea
grew. They responded to the plea so
rapidly that within three years the
number of children being sent to the
country had reached 236. Hostesses
began to invite the same children
back year after year and often their
interest continued long after the children returned to the city.
Last summer, according to F. N.
Stapleford, General Secretary of the
Neighborhood Workers' Association,
1,159 children were sent away from
the city for two weeks or more.
“Credit for the splendid growth
of the plan is largely due,” says Mr.
Stapleford, “to the co-operation of
the rural newspapers, clergymen,
women’s organizations and the gen
erous people of rural Ontario.
"Their hospitality and kindness
have made dreams come true for
many boys and girls. Boys who
wanted more than anything in life
to live on fam s have had their
dreams realized. Children who were
pale and thin from long weary
months in the city, received new en
ergy and happiness. For a few
weeks they have enjoyed the right
ful heritage of every child—long,
sunny days, flowers, birds, trees, and
an expanse of blue sky.
“The job is by no means finished.
Each year brings its quota of needy
children. This summer there are at
least 1,200 youngsters who urgently
require brief respite from the
crowded city quarters in which they
live. Once again we must appeal
for the co-operation and interest of
rural dwellers,” Mr. Stapleford
states.
Regulations governing the country
home plan are simple. Homes must be
within a radius of 150 miles from
Toronto. Transportation is supplied
by the Neighborhood Workers’ Asso
ciation, and children are medically
examined before leaving town. In
vitations must be accompanied by a
reference from local clergyman or
a prominent member of the commun
ity, and should state the number of
children desired, and the ages and
sex preferred.
"Some small towns in the past
have pooled their resources. Women
with large homes have given the ac
commodation; woipen with time on
their hands have provided picnics
and other entertainment. Ministers
have been invaluable in interesting
members of their congregation in
the adoption of a community plan,’’
the General Secretary states.
All letters of invitation or inquiry
re the country home plan of vaca
tion for city children should be
addressed to the Neighborhood Work
ers Association, 22 Wellesley Street,
Toronto.
How To Produce
Clean Farm Milk
In the illustrated farmers’ ^bulletin,
"Producing Clean Milk” just issued
by tho Dominion Department of
Agriculture, the author, Dr. A. G.
Lochhead, Dominion Agricultural
Bacteriologist, states that to produce
the highest grade of milk, contamin
ation from all sides must naturally
be excluded as far as possible. Only
when care is paid to stable, animals,
utensils, and the method used by the
milker can the cleanest milk be
drawn, A producer intent upon
cleaning up his milk supply can best
commence by ensuring that his pails
are dean and scalded and that the
chance of dirt falling from the cow
into the pail is reduced to a mini
mum.
While other sources of bacteria
servo- to add to the germ-content of
the milk, yet in comparison with the
chief sources, namely badly or care
lessly cleaned pails and dirt from the
cow, they are of minor importance
and have undoubtedly been given
too much emphasis in the past.
It should not be assumed that the
advice is to neglect these so-called
minor sources. The point is simply
this: Care taken to prevent con
tamination from tho minor sources
is wasted unless at the same time
contamination from the main
sources is also prevented. Only when

the pail is sterilized and the cow is
clean, will the extra precautions
show results. Clean stable air, fresh
ly whitewashed walls, clean hands
and coat, and discarding the fore
milk will be of little avail if the
milker brings, in a dirty pail or loos
ens a piece of manure from the cow’s
flank into the milk. A clean pail,
a covered pail, and a clean cow are
the main factors in producing clean
milk.
The bulletin, which may be ob
tained post-free on request from the
Publicity and Extension Division,
Dominion Department of Agricul
ture, Ottawa, deals with all phases
in the production of clean milk and
contains pictures of the proper and
improper methods of milking and
sterilizing pails. nA
