Red Cross is an efficient international organiza
tion, with leading industrialists, financiers, newspaper
men and members of other professions on its execu
tive committees. It is operated in a businesslike way,
with every action passing under the scrutiny of theee
voluntary active executives. Its administrative per
sonnel has been trained by experience, and by the
very fact that this personnel functions during peace
time as an efficient, competent organization.
It enlists voluntary assistance for every purpose.
The offices maintained overseas during the last World
War were manned by volunteers, who operated num
erous services such as Prisoners of War Department,
preparation of casualty lists, notification to relatives
of men arriving in hospitals, and the supplying of
these men with any needs, and countless other func
tions apart from its primary duty of co-operating with
the Army Medical Corps.
Through the efforts of the Canadian Red Cross
Society, $9,073,485 was raised for its purposes, in
addition to $6,250,000 for the Britsh Red CroiS.
Supplies totalling a value of approximately $20,000,-
000 were sent overseas, in addition to the funds
which were devoted to financing hospitals, equipping
and manning them, purchasing and operating ambu
lance units, etc. The finest hospital in France, accord
ing to army medical authorities, was the Red Cross
z hospital built and equipped by Canada at Vincennes,
near Paris.
The record of the last war was accomplished only
by the goodwill of the Canadian people, the willing
ness of other organizations to co-operate with the
Red Cross and eliminate confusion, overlapping and
duplication, and the generosity of donations from
rich and poor. The Red Cross again faces a similar
task. And this time it faces this duty with the added
•responsibility of a peace time program which has
become an important fac t* in Canadian life and
must be continued.
The Red Cross is a permanent organization of na
tional societies with more than 15,000,000 adult mem
bers in 65 countries. It first came into existence
when a conference of representatives of 16 nations
met in October, 1863, in -Geneva, and there laid down
the uniform fundamental bases which have governed
the organization ever since. A short and simple draft
was accepted which provided for the formation of na
tional committees in each country,-to act as auxiliar
ies of the army medical services of their respective
governments. The summoning of this conference had
followed the publication of a book entitled, “A Sou-
*venir of Solferino”, by Henri Dunant, after he had
visited the battlefield of Solferino and seen wounded
and dying men lying unattended. He outlined his
ideal of “some international principle formulated in
terms of a convention and recognized as inviolable,
which, once agreed upon and ratified, should serve as
the basis for activity of societies for the relief of
the wounded in different countries in Europe.” With
this object in view, M. Gustave Moynier, president of
the Genevese Societe d’Utilite Publique, summoned
the meeting of the 16 nations.
Because the first conference was composed of
persons unable to give practical effect to their recom
mendations, a second conference was held in 1864—
this time a diplomatic conference of accredited gov
ernment representatives. The result was the signing
of. the famous Geneva Convention, the spirit of which
has been faithfully upheld in the subsequent confer
ences of 1906 and 1929. This conference also laid
down the established basis that a red cross on a white
ground should be used not only by the medical services
of the various armies, but also by duly recognized
relief societies constituted at this time as auxiliaries
to the medical services, and that these services were
to be known as Red Cross Societies. Their emblem
was to be recognized as the sole neutral insignia dur
ing war, the nation pledged and to by free fromattack. /
Among the 12 principles of the Red (Cross, and to
which the governments have Subscribed'themselves in
so far as their acceptance is concerned, are that
these societies “must be recognized by the government
as auxiliary to the army medical corps”; must adopt
as emblem a red cross on a white ground; must be
open to all nations without any distinction, particu
larly as regards sex, religion or political opinion;
must be pledged to prepare themselves in peace time
for wartime work, and “must be so formed as not to
exclude any appropriate branch of medical work m
connection with.the fighting services.”

Thanksgiving Day
Monday, October 9th was Thanksgiving Day. It is
as old as recorded history.
The aboriginal inhabitants of North America, like
the Israelites of old, did not confine their public
thanksgiving for bounteous crops within the limits of
one day. While the Israelites observed three obligatory
festivals, the Indians of North America held many
public ceremonies in connection with the fruita of the
earth. .
Besides the main thanksgiving in the late fall or -
early winter, there were ceremonies of gratitude for
the rising of the maple sap, the ripening of fruits
and berries, and for the planting and reaping of corn,
culminating ir the one general grateful appeal to the
Almighty, The Huron and Iroquoian nations had at
lea’t six major thanksgiving ceremonies throughout
the year—seven days when the cprn was planted;
seven days when the corn turned grein; four days
when thv corn was harvested; the great mid-winter
fexdval of general thanksgiving, and the earlier maple
sap undUhc strawberry fcstivalH.
The great autumn thanksgiving festival was con
ducted with much ceremonial, particularly by the Iro
quois. Certain elected officiab ware placed in charge.
They levied contributions of food from each wigwam,
fixed the dates of ceremonies, and approved of the
orators to open the festival with an appeal to the
Great Spu:t and a prayer of gratitude tv the threestated goddewes—Coin. Bean and Squa»h. ThvObjibwaye celebrated their “midewjwm”’ in the season of ripening fruits and later for all benefits in thelate fall, while the Indians in British Columbia heldtheir great feast of thanksgiving on the coming ofthe saliiK-n,
With the arrival of the white man to Canada, the
unbroken chain of thanksgiving was continued by the
early French colonists according to Christian observ
ances and principles. In later years, with the increass
of the population ami the Confederation of the prov
inces, the Dominion parliament set aside a certain day
in each year for the thanksgiving festival of the
people of Canada.
Fire Prevention Week
Tbe word “fire” can have a friendly, or an ominous
meaning. It connotes heat and comfort or, what is
of serious import to every Canadian . . destruction.
And, last year, fire destroyed or damaged property
with a value of $25,899,180. In the same 12 months,
263 persons lost their lives in fires.
In themselves, those statistics are significant, but
their significance is of little vaue unless they im
press on every man, woman, and child in this country
the need for reducing this ghastly toll.
Thi- week, therefore, recognised as “Fire Preven
tion Week,” it is timely to dwell on this subject, and,
by a little self-analysis, to discover how every indiv
idual can do something to reduce this sheer, wanton
waste of national property, and lives.
There is a reason for the majority of fires . . .
carelessness. It may be a cigarette, dropped thought
lessly, oily rags left uncovered in a basement; gaso
lene used without regard to the oangcra associated
with improper handling . . these arts just a few of
the common causes.
For years, insurance companies, through their
regional associations, have spent small fortunes try
ing to educate the public to the dangers of fire.
They have regular staffs of qualified inspectors, trav
elling the length and breadth of the land helping to
spot fire hazards so that they may be eliminated; their
representatives collaborate with municipalities to bring
fire fighting equipment to the peak of efficiency;
they inspect water systems to see that adequate sup
plies are available and that pressures are sufficient;
they contribute, in manifold .ways, to the improvement
of methods wfliich will reduce losses; their laboratories
test thousands and thousands of articles to assure
their safety . . . but commendable though this work
be, it cannot achieve the expected objective until
there is more co-operation by the individual Canadian.
This co-operation may only mean having £n inspec
tion of the house og. factory, instructing members of
the household or workers in the use of a fire exting
uisher; a periodical check up in the home or plant to
see that ordinary and sensible rules are observed.
If this were done Canada’s fire loss which when
all is said and done comes out of the pockets of Can
adians, would soon show a sizeable decrease to the
general benefit.

| HEALTH LEAGUE ofCANADADECREASED DYING FROM
TUBERCULOSIS
To-day the average white person
at ages up to 25, has about one
chance in 30 of eventually dying of
tuberculosis. Barely 20 years ago
the cKances were twice as great This
is the encouraging information given
by one of the great insurance com
panies operating in the United States
and Canada. This change is due to
the unremitting efforts of anti-tub
erculosis societies,4 physicians and
philanthropic people working on this
continent
As is the case with many affections
the chances of eventually dying of
tuberculosis for males of any age
are substantially, greater than for
the average female of the same age.
The chances of an eventual death for
the newly-born males are 35 in
1,000 while for females they are
but 25 in 1000 . For both sexes the
chances increase slightly as the chid
grows older and reach a maximum of
37 in 1,000 at about 15 for the boy
and 26 in the 1,000 at about 10 for
the girl.
At age 35, out of every 1,000, 32
will eventually succumb to tubercul
osis, while for females at the same
age this disease ;will eventually claim
18 out of every 1,000. Tuberculosis
still has an attraction for persons of
middle age for at age 50 the figures
for males and females arc 23 and 13
respectively.
The foregoing marks a distinct ad
vance over conditions prevailing in
1920 when 65 out of every 1,000
newly-born inales and 58 out of
1,000 new-born females were doom
ed to’die. In 1937 the correspon
ding figures are 35 and 25. Practic
ally the same rates of improvement
are noted for the older ages for each
sex. All these figures are for white
people and, while statistics are not
the most alluring sort of literature,
their publication should help in con
vincing the public that consistent
progress has been made in the period
against the White Plague.
More than 80 per cent of hospital
patients in six Canadian Provinces
are given the protection of milk
pasteurization.
Results of a survey now being
made by the Health League of Can
ada were announced recently at Tor
onto for the benefit of delegates to
the American Hospital Association,
at whose convention here the Health
League has two educational exhibits,
including one exclusively on pasteur
ization.
The six Provinces on which data
is complete, with the percentage of
patients served'only pasteurized milk
are: Ontario 98%; Manitoba 85%;
Nova Scotia 74%; Saskatchewan
71%; New Brunswick 70%; British
Columbia 54%. Theee six Provinces
have a total of 476 hospitals, with a
bed accommodation of 34,355. The
total number of beds in the hospitals
serving pasteurized milk is 28,424 or
82 per cent.
“Those new people across the
road seem very devoted,” said Mrs.
Jopes wistfully to the newspaper
which hid her husband.
A rustle of the sheet was all the
reply that she got, but she was used
to that.
"Every time he goes out he kisses
her, and goes on throwing kisses all

Edward, why don’t you do that?”
“Me!” snorted the man behind
the news. "J don’t know her!”

Making of Vinegar NotEasy ProcessFrom the dawn of civilisation vinegar has played a notable part in thehuman diet. It may be prepared
from practically any fruit juice. The
primary step is fermentation of the
sugars in the juice to alcohol which,
in turn, is converted into vinegar by
acetie acid bacteria. In some coun
tries, certain kinds of vinegar
through extensive use have become
what E0ght be called national vine
gars, because they are made largely
from national beverages. For in
stance, in England the term “vine
gar” means vinegar made from beer,
in France and Italy, that made from
wine, and in North America, that
made from cider.
Cider vinegar is formed by the
action of acetic acid bacteria on prop
erly fermented apple juice. Essen
tially, vinegar is a dilute solution of
acetic acid, but, since it is the pro
duct of definite biological fermenta
tion of sound fruit juice, it contains
many flavours and other substances
in addition to those produced during
fermentation and storage.
The manufacture of quality eider
vinegar in commercial quantities is
not easy, states C. C. Strachan, Do
mi ninon Experimental Station, Sum
merland, B.C. The enitre process
must be carefully and scientifically
controlled throughout and vinegar
made without this control is apt to
be lower in acid than desirable and
of inferior flavour. Cider vinegar
properly made is equal in quality to
malt or any other type of vinegar.
The Canadian Food and Drug Act
lays down the law that all types of
vinegar must have an acetic acid
strength greater than 3.5 per cent.
Most vinegars on the market are well
above - the legal minimum, usually
having an acetic acid content of 4.5
to 5 per cent.
The business man returned from
lunch and rang for his office boy.
“Anyone call while I was out?” he
asked.
“Yes, sir, a gentleman called,’
replied the boy.
“Who was it?”
“Wouldn’t give his name, sir.”
“Well, can you describe him. Was
he tall or short?”
“Both, sir. He was tall and wanted
to borrow ten dollars.
“IT ALL DEPENDS'*
Up to now I have never fallen to
the columnist’s lowest level—that ofasking my readers to "simplify my
work by asking them to write to me
—but something occurred recently
that causes a change in policy. It
was a very simple something. Most
stirring things are simple. My wife
discovered a prayer written by Rob
ert Louis Stevenson that has captiv
ated us both. It has captivated, too,
many of the friends to whom we
have read it I am sure you .will like
it. And now I want to know from
some Stevenson expert if it comes
from one of R. L.’s books as a prayer
uttered by one of the characters or
whether it represented a bit of his
vagrant work. Perhaps someone will
tell me. Here is the prayer:
“We thank Thee for this
place in which we dwell; for the
love which unites us; for the peace
accorded us this day; for the hope
with which we expect the morrow;for the health, the work, the food
and the bright skies that make ourlives delightful ... for our friends
in all parts of the earth. Give uscourage, and gaiety and a quiet
mind; spare to us our friends;
soften to us our enemies; bless us,if it may be, in all our innocent
endeavours; if it may not, give usstrength to encounter that which
is to be, that we be brave inperil, constant in tribulation, tem
perate in wrath; and in allchanges of fortune and down tothe gates of death, loyal and lov
ing one to another.”
Just why a layman should shy off
prayers or scriptural quotations I
don’t really know, but the fact re
mains that many writers do. They
leave that sort of thing to ministers
who, after all, were the original
scriveners. Stevenson, evidently, was
different. And I am very glad that
ho was. There is a1 serenity about that
little prayer that is somehow very
satisfying in days like these when
perhaps our greatest need is serenity.
As a study for would-be writers
it makes an excellent example. There
is a completeness about the thought
expressed that many an editorial
writer 'today would—or should be
ready to give one of his ears for;
and its expression, like any example
of “RJkS.” you choose, has the
smooth surface o! wull-poliAcd
brass. Good writing* if you believe
the Stevenson legends, like practical
ly anything else you do calls' for con
stant practice, hard work and an in
finite capacity for polishing and im
proving what you have done.
Which sententious utterance leads
to a «fcort dissertation upon the in
evitable way history baa of repeating
ItaaM. But history, I am afraid, hasn’t
fitavanson faculty of polishing
and polishing until it improves itself.To say that history repeats itself has trite as running into a Montrealneighbour on the Bund in Shanghaiand exclaiming, "It’s a small world,isn’t it?”But the fact ia Inewapable. History
does repeat itself. A study of Eng
lish newspapers of the years between
1811 and 1815 shows that Napoleon
Boneparte had—for its day—as effi
cient a propaganda department as
ever a mentally and physically twist
ed Goebbels could organize under
present conditions. The tyrant’s mind
repeats itself. In that day events
were twisted to suggest to the rest of
the world that the British were re
sponsible for the chaotic conditions of
Europe. English naval captains were
accused of tactics as unfair as the
stupid suggestion from Berlin that
the “Athenia” was torpedoed by the
British in order to enlist American
sympathy.
Back in those days, too, the con
voy system—developed again in 1917
to defeat the submarine warfare, and
within two weeks of the outbreak of
the present war—was in use. Big,
slow-sailing, comfortable East India-
men were convoyed as they wallowed
their way across the Bay of Biscay
filled with British manufactured
goods for Bombay and, even more
carefully as they made their way
homewards again laden with precious
cargoes of tea. And a hard job for
the escort ships it must have been,
too. There .were no cables, no wire
less and rendezvous had to be plan
ned months ahead. Escort ships were
smart sailing frigates or heavier
armed ships of the line. Of course
the enemy was not the slinking, evil-
breathed jackal that befouls the
clean seas today.
In those days, sleek, beautiful
cuttera or easily-handled luggers
preyed upon peaceful merchantmen
and won their prizes by smart sea
manship. They put prize crews
aboard the ships they captured and
sailed them to French ports. Which
may, for all we know, have been the
real introduction of tea into France.
Today history repeats itself'but there
is deterioration, not improvement in
the repetition. Today a submarine,
lurking in the depths and giving its^
prey not even a sporting chance at
escape, sinks without warning and
destroys cargoes of food for which
good, kindly, bewildered German citi
zens are starving.
A few days ago a British warship
intercepted and detained a merchant
vessel that carried, amongst other
things, 2,000 lbs. of coffee consigned
to Adolf Hitler. He had planned to
lay in a sufficient supply before war
broke out but delay in the shipment
has reduced him to the level of the
ordinary, taxpaying German who ha*
not tasted real coffee or tea for these
two years.
To those of us who find a cup of
tea a welcome interlude in the mor
ning or afternoon either as a social
occasion or because we find it lessens
fatigue, the plight of the German
is hard to imagine. We do not know
what it is to try to give a tea party
at which we have to serve substitute
tea, substitute bread made from
wood pulp, substitute butter that
also grew in a forest, sandwich
spreads that contain wood pulp.
They do. They knew it before war
broke out. For two years substi
tutes have played a big part in the
German housewife’s economy.
But rfe, because history repeats
itself, because the British Navy—as
it has always done—will keep the
seas free, will be able to stop for a
cup of tea ;when the day’s work be
comes tiring and we need a lift. We
will be able to do as England was al
ready doing before the war and in-
• • • teeth kept bright
and attractive with
the heip of WRIGLEY'S
crease production of munitions, es
sentials and even luxuries by keeping
efficiency at a high level. A few
weeks ago Sir Theodore Chambers, a
noted British financier and housing
expert, told reporters at Quebec that
“Tea, thrift and housing will win the
war.” Sir Theodore claimed that
British studies of fatigue had demon
strated that a pause for tea in mid
morning and mid-afternoon material
ly increased the production and im
proved the health of the workers.
To this rest-pause he added the im
portance of proper housing as devel
oped in garden cities in the Old
Country, “Thrift,” he said, “was a
third vital factor.
It is becoming harder and harder
to find a situation in which the title
of this column, “It All Depends”,
is not applicable. Take this question
of history repeating itself. The finger
would seem to point to a successful
outcome of the huge task set for
themselves by England and France.
But, it all depends. It depends on
you and me. We must all do our bit
to see that history repeats itself on
our side of the page.

a lot of extra baiting.
Out on the prairie at Carberry,Manitoba, where this happened,
Mrs. Fred Gamble and her daughterproved the wisdom and economy of
baking with Robin Hood Flour.
“We used a bag of Robin HoodFlour every two weeks," says Mrs.
Gamble, “and it made our work
much easier besides giving us better
bread and more loaves to the bag.
The men certainly appreciated thenutritious quality and flavor of our
bread for we bad a hard time fillingthem up.”
“Robin Hood Flour is so mucheasier and so much more depend
able to work with,” confided Mrs.
Gamble. “Why, when using RobinHood Flour, I can mix my dough
until it's almost sticky but other
flours mixed this way would give
you dough so soft it wouldn't rise
properly. Robin Hood just takes
up the extra water and expands intomore loaves.”
Scores of other women agree
with Mrs. Gamble on this point andthe reason is this: Robin Hood Flour
is richer in that bread-making sub
stance called gluten. Because RobinHood is superior in its quality and
quantity of gluten, it absorbs more
liquid—bakes more loaves. And, of
course, the lightness and flavor of
the bread is improved too!
Sincerely,
Give Robin Hood a trial in your
own baiting of bread, cakes and pies
and you will be as enthusiastic
about it as Mrs. Gamble.

The long hitter drove too soon
from the tee, while an elderly bow-
legged member was still playing his
second. The drive passed between
the latter’s legs. ‘4Bir,” he bellowed,
when they met later, “that’s not golf,
confound you.”
"I know, replied the long hitter,
modestly, but it’s jolly fine croquet.”

Any of These Hazards Can Cause a Fire that
WZILSON'S fourteen points dur
ing the/last Great War arc
engraved in history. Hitler’s recent
sixteen fantastic points will also be
referred to many times by histor
ians in the future. There are an
other 31 points, however, of which
little is heard even though they
have a serious bearing on the daily
life of every householder in Can
ada. They represent possible fire
hazards in the home whicfiflH this
season of the year, call for appro
priate action by everyone living in,
<or owning a home.
Last year, Canada’s total fire
loss was $25,899,199 in 44,000 fires.
Of this total 33,044 were in dwell
ings with a loss of $6,089,663.
Most of these fires could have
been avoided by reasonable care
and foresight according to the
Canadian Underwriters’ Associa
tion'which is circulating the above
drawing calling attention of house
holders to the danger of fires in
their own homes.
Careful inspection of homes
would reveal just how many of
these 31 points detailed in the
next column require immediate
attention, it is stated, and the time
spent in checking them will bring
freedom from worry to say nothing
about the loss, suffering and in
convenience caused by fires in
dwellings. So, the Association ad
vises, “if everyone would take
prompt steps to reduce the fire
hazards in their own homes, Can
ada's loss this winter would be
materially reduced."
31 POINTS
1. Chimney poorly constructedand without flue lining.
2. Rubbish in attic.3. No fire stops.4. Soot in chimney.
5. Aerial not properly groundedand no lightning arrestor.6. Combustible roof exposed tochimney sparks. ,7. Non-automatic electric ironleft attached.

Frank McKirfnon Stark, who died
in San Francisco, 12 years ago;
and of my daughter, Florence

“They wait for me!” I said it in my
dreaming,
Then fell a hush beyond the hush of
night;
And, fairer far than Southern waters
gleaming,
A Presence passed in soft celestial
light.
“They wait for me!” I said it in my
weeping,
For nevermore they cometh o’er the
sea;
“They wait for me!” A glorious vigil
keeping
Beyond the stars they waiteth there
for me.• V W
“And now I wait awhile—
Until the shadows flee,
They wait for me.”

Norsworthy Chapter, I.O.D.E., re
ports that blankets and children’s
warm clothing valued at $70.00 and
donated by the members and other
citizens of Ingersoll, have been pack
ed into a large wooden box and pre
pared for shipment to England on
Tuesday. The clothing consisted of
various articles for school boys and
girs between the ages of six and
twelve years as well as a few infant
garments. The C. P. R. will carry
these goods to the port of Montreal
and thence to Great Britain free of
charge.
This contribution has been made
in response to Lady Reading's ap
peal to the Imperial Order Daughters
of the Empire in Canada for the
needs of the British school children
evacuated from the large cities of
Britain because of the war. Many
citizens of Ingersoll, not members of
the Order, have taken advantage of
this opportunity of lending assist
ance to these unfortunate children
and the Chapter members express !
their thanks to these individuals who
have so generously contributed to

GIVE US NEWS
There has never been a news
paper printed that satisfied
everybody. But there ia a very
simple method by which better
newspapers can be produced
and that is for those who
subscribe to them to take an
individual interest in teeing
that they get more local and
personal news. Not that the
subscriber is expected to be
come a reporter when he
becomes a subscriber, but be
cause the newspaper stands as
the exponent of all that Is good
for the community and because
civic pride should, therefore,
lead to encouragement of such
an institution. If the subscriber
has visitors, if he has been on
a visit or if he or she is going
on one, the neighbors are sure
to be interested in knowing
about it. Tell them through
the columns of the Ingersoll
Tribune. Every little item of
a local or pernonnl nature helps
just that much to make a still
better newspaper and getting
it to the editor requires very
little exertion on the part of
anyone. That is how the
subscriber can help make The
Tribune more interesting, and
subscribers are invited to start
doing so nt once.

"W HA T A LIFE"
A -severe electrical storm passedover this district early Sunday morn
ing accompanied by a heavy rain,the latter, being badly needed. Many
of the residents of the village whowere not awake during the earlypart of the storm, were suddenly
aroused from their slumbers whenthe lightning struck a large tree in
front of J. W. Hunt’s house. This isthe second time in a few years thatthis same tree was struck. A tree
just north of the village was also reported badly riddled with a bolt oflightning.
A fowl supper was held in the
United Church on Monday evening,Oct. 2nd, in connection with the50th anniversary of the church.
Special services were held on theSunday previous, when Rev. £>. N.Oliver of Muskegon, Mich., was the
guest speaker. To commemorate theoccasion a birthday cake was madeand donated to the supper by Mrs. S.
J. Dundas. The decorating of therake was artistically done by Mrs.Ellen Skinner and this, with the 50
candles which were around the three-'torey cake, made an attractive spoton. the centre of the three long sup
per tables. Mrs. Vivian Woods, president of the Women's Association,
under whose auspices the eveningwas sponsored called on the following ladies who were in some way con
nected with the church when it wasbuilt 50 years ago. The candles were,
lit by Mrs. S. J. Dundas, Mrs. JohnTalbot, Mr*. E. A. McCann and Mrs.F. Hunter; Mrs. John Hunt cut thecake, after which Mrs. W. Williamsfanned the candles out. Mrs. Monk
and Mrs. McFarlane were asked totake the bow, as both were in thevicinity at that time also. Following
the supper which was attended byabout 400, all adjourned to theauditorium where a splendid varied
program was given by the Six Cousins of Elmira, who were introduced
to their audience by the pastor ofthe Dorchester church, Rev. J. W.Taylor. The two hours of entertain
ment provided by these six men wasmuch enjoyed by all. - Proceeds forthe evening amounted to about $160.
Special services were also held onSunday last, Oct. 8th, to completethis special occasion and beautiful
fall weather again prevailed andthough the attendance was not aalarge as the former Sunday, the services were very successful. At11 a.m., Rev. J. Waters of London,gave a splendid address. Special mus
ic was furnished by the choir duringthe day which included anthems,
and solos by Frank Rickard, MissHargreaves and Mrs. Cuthbert. Thechoir was under the leadership of
Miss G. Hargreaves with Miss HattieRath at the organ, and Miss EvelynMorris accompanist on the piano.
Large baskets of fall flowers andferns were effectively used ns decor
ations in the church. The inspiringaddress at 7.30 p.m., was given byRev. J. W. Hunt of London.
Mr. Frank Muter spent the weekend and holiday at his home at Hamilton.

“Elinor?"“Yes.”“But why with Anne?"“Anne loves her. And it will giveher time to think.”
“But where will you go. Vicky?"
Elinor threw herself into a chair,and the rose and silver of her gownand the deeper rose of the chair’sback seemed to mock the whitenessof her face. "How much is she mychild? You’ve been with her sinceshe was five. You’ve taken my place.And Francis did that, not I."“He did it because you said youhated being tied down."But there was more to it thanthat Vicky had not told the wholestory. Of how Francis Ordway hadcome home late one^iight from Bal

means to get money to pay them.Now she was at her wits’ end, andin spite of her resentment of Vicky’sinterference in her affairs, it seemedas if Vicky after all was the only
stable thing in her world.Suddenly they heard the big caroutside.In another moment Francis en-
“What will Anne say? She won’tlet you go, Vicky.”“She will when I tell her.”“What will you tell her?”“That her mother needs her."“You think,” Francis asked tensely, “that it isn't too late?”She spoke with a certain sereneconfidence.“Sometimes life works out ourproblems for us.”
“What a fatalist you arel”She smiled wistfully. "Perhaps itisn't fatalism. Perhaps it is faith.And don’t worry about Anne. She'sa strong little thing, with all her
softness.”She saw his face quivering withdeep emotion. "I worship her,” hesaid. “She’s the one lovely thing inthis rotten world.”She had no words for that, atWshe left him standing by the fire,bis eyes on the dying flames.Meanwhile the man in the meadow had not found sleep under thestars.It had been an enchanting adven
ture with that child in the moonlight A rare moment to tuck awayin one’s memory. And that was allYet if things had been different hewould have tried to see her again—to savor once more her exquisite
ness.He had not thought there wassuch a girl in this modern world.She had recalled to his mind thepainting of Bouguerean that he hadseen in a Baltimore gallery of a
young maiden with a lamb in herarms. “Innocence” was the name inthe catalogue. Well, she was like
beyond that to the lighted hall Andas he looked a woman came withinhis line of vision. She was ascending the stairs.
He saw her—first her head, thenthe whiteness of her neck and arms,
then rosy and shining as the dawn,her pink and silver gown. She wasvery beautiful, with an almoststartling beauty like the splendidladies in Romney’s paintings or Sir
Joshua’s. But her beauty left Charlescold. Such goddesses belonged inportrait galleries to be hung onwalls! He had a feeling that thewoman was Anne’s another. Yetthere was nothing in common be
tween the golden-lightcd lovelinessof the daughter and the dark brilliance of the other.
She stood now in the open doorof the darkened room. She seemedto hesitate, then entered and waslost in the gloom A shaft of moonlight striking through the shadowsshone on a shimmering heap ofwhiteness that seemed to catch and
hold the light in a pool of radiance.And it was toward this pool of radiance that a hand came presently outof the darkness—a white hand anda bare and slender arm.
Then all at once the hand waswithdrawn, and where there hadbeen that shimmering heap wasempty space! And in the long andlighted hall a flash of pink and silver
as a tall figure went flying toward aroom at the far end.Charles wondered a bit as hemade his way down the hill. Therehad been an air of mystery about the
woman’s movements. But one’s imagination plays tricks at times. Andthere was undoubtedly a perfectlycommonplace solution to the scene.When he returned to his camp
his fire was dying, little spirals ofwood smoke scenting acridly the airabout him. How Margot had lovedthat acrid scent I"I shall never forget this, Car!,"
she had said on their honeymoon."I shall never forget" And now shehad forgotten. It was he who wouldremember those other nights under
tercd. He stopped on the threshold
and looked his surprise. “Not in bedyet?” he asked."I have been" Vicky said, “but Ismelled smoke and came down.”
Elinor said, “It was the fireplace.”•‘I’ll go upstairs now," said Vicky."I'm tired.”Francis stopped her with a motion of his hand. “No. Sit down,Vicky.

"Ffom me?” %“From both of us—if you will

“You know as well as I. It’s good/enough for you and me, perhaps
We’ve made our beds and we’vegot to lie on them. But it isn’t good\enough for Anne. And besides,there’s Garry.”“What’s the matter with Garry?”
"Nothing—as Garry. But a lot as “Anne’s husband?’Vicky spoke. "You can ‘ trustAnne. And may I say somethingabout your plan for sending heraway?"
"Of course."I think if Anne goes at all. sheshould go with her mother.”They stared at her. T. ~__ . , , ., ,3With me?" Elinor asked, amazed. w>Lkn? ®«mess of his, of"Do you mean," Funds' demand- cou rlt That wl” *”

seasonal change, is one of the most
delightful times of the year to be out
doors. And it is a time rich in picture
material—a perfect season to load
up your camera, climb in the car or
put on hiking boots, and go afield
with an eye alert for picture chances.
Look for these picture opportuni

farms . . . wherever there Is rural
activity. Watch the skies for cloud
formations that will add glory to
your landscape shots. As leaves begin to fall, and bonfires are burning,
look for atmospheric effects — sun
bursts slanting through trees andsmoke—for these too will make fine
pictures.
If your camera can be loaded withfull-color film, by all means plan totake advantage of the brilliant col
ors as leaves begin to change and
assume their autumnal hues. Andlook for colorfilming opportunities
in the orchards where bright-colored
fruit hangs against the green oftrees. It you go on group hikes at
this ideal hiking season, see that

THE NEW 1940FORDS ATTRACTEDMUCH ATTENDON1940 Standard and DeLuxeFord V-8 Tudors WereShown For First Time OnFriday At McVittie & Shel
ton Limited, Ingersoll’s Ford
Sales and Service Garage.
Hundreds visited the show room of
McVittie and Shelton Limited, Ing
ersoll’s Ford Sales and Service on
Friday and Saturday last, to see the
first showing of the New 1940 Model
Fords. Two cars were on display, a
black finished standard Tudor and a
DeLuxe Model Tudor finished in
green. These cars presented notable
advances in styling, comfort, con
venience and safety. They were
greatly admired by all who viewed
them.
The new cars are big, substantial
and powerful in appearance. Body
lines are pleasingly streamlined.
Front end designs are distinctively
modern, with low radiator grilles,
long hoods and deeply rounded
fenders. The trimly tailored interiors
are big and roomy, with plenty of
seat room, leg room, elbow room and
shoulder room.
Four Ford V-8 and five Deluxe
body types comprise the two lines. A
new business coupe as well as a
Fordor sedan, Tudor sedan and coupe
are available in both. There is also
a Deluxe convertible coupe .with au
tomatic top as standard equipment.
Three color choices are available in
the Ford V-8, six in the Deluxe line.
An important new feature of the
cars is a finger-tip gear-shift mounted
on the steering column under the
two-spoke steering wheel. This pro
vides room for driver and passengers
in the front compartment. There is
also a new controlled ventilation
system. New Sealed Beam Headlamps
are used on all types, providing
greatly increased driving vision at
night
An improved spring suspension with
a longer, more flexible front spring,
and a torsion bar-ride stabilizer pro
vide an exceptionally comfortable
steady ride. The ride-stabilizer also
contributes to firmer, easier steer
ing. Front and rear springs of De
luxe cars are equipped with metal
covers. Large double-acting hydrau
lic shock absorbers with self-sealing
construction are fitted on all cars.
Comfort features are emphasized
throughout the design,
built for restful riding. Front seat
backs are of new resilient type.
Cushions have a new "floating"
.edge. Driver’s seats are adjustable
two ways—they rise, as they are
move<| forward. Bodies are scientific
ally soundproofed, shutting out
road noises. An "easy-shift” trans
mission, permitting speeds to be
changed quietly; new design curved
disc wheels also contribute to quiet
ness. All models have quick-stopping
hydraulic brakes.
The interiors of the cars appear
in new decorative schemes, A pleas
ing color treatment in maroon and
sand duotone distinguishes the inter
iors of the Deluxe types. The same
thorough attention to detail marks
the interiors of the Ford V-8. In
Deluxe cars, window and door
frames are finished in dark mahog
any, hardware - in antique bronze,
with striped mohair or broadcloth
upholstery in sand.
In the Ford V-8, door and, window mouldings are in bleached wal
nut finish, handles are chr/me-plat-
ed, with knobs in sarld colored
plastic. Upholstery is in taupe.
Instrument panels harmonize with
the interior styling. Gauges arc
grouped in front of the distinctive
steering wheel. A grille for installa
tion of radio speaker, glove compart
ment with lock, two aril trays and a
cigar lighter are provided on the
panel. Deluxe cars have a cluck in
the glove compartment door.
Other equipment supplied without
extra cost on Jboth.the Ford V-8 and
the Deluxe Ford V-8 includes: front
and rear bumpers and four bumper
guards; spare wheel, tire and tube;
twin electric air horns; dual wind
shield wipers with single control;

FOR PROFIT... PeedSHUR-GAINFEEDSWITH YOUR OWN GRAINS
Complete “balance” is essential for best results with
• POULTRY OHOGS • CATTLE
•
It is necessary to feed different proportions of proteins, carbohy
drates, minerals and vitamins to poultry, hogs and cattle in their
various stages of growth and production. The making up of balanced
feeds, using home-grown grains, fodder, along with the many other
high protein, mineral and vitamin materials is a study in itself. You
can do it most successfully with SHUR-GAIN CONCENTRATES.
They are ideal to use in the balancing of grains for feeding pur
poses. Being a member of the Sbur-Gein Feed Service, we are in a
position to advise and mix concentrates with your own grains in
the proper proportions to get most satisfactory results. 9321
