Municipal Election* Will Be Suspended For Length of War Premier Hepburn has announced the suspension of municipal elections in Ontario after January 1, 1040, for a two-year period or “{or the duration of the war if that be longer.” Hon. Eric Cross, minister of mun- icipal affairs, has issued a supple­ mentary statement, explaining the new policy. He says it will effect important savings to municipalities and at the same time he urged elect­ ors to be sure to place in office at .the coming elections, representatives of the highest possible calibre. “This will accomplish enormous savings in election costs,” Mr. Cross' statement said, “and will eliminate the annual disturbance of municipal contests. It will create a moratorium on municipal politics for the dura­ tion of the war. “This announcement is made so that, at the approaching municipal elections, the electors may place in office strong and efficient councils who can direct the full resources of their communities towards the prose­ cution of the war.” The minister of municipal affairs says necessary legislation is being prepared and will be introduced at the next session of the Ontario Leg­ islature. Mr. Cross also points out that sim­ ilar legislature was passed in Brit­ ain during the first Great War and is again before the British House of Commons. He said the decision will not apply until 1941 to municipalities where the two-year plan was already in operation and the terras of the mayor and counicl still has a year to run. Dougku M.

VEALEProprietor and Editor PHONES:—Tribune Office. 13 - Residence, 4 42 A <— Member of — The Canadian Weekly Newspaper*’ Association THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2nd. 1939 Science and Humanity In the current issue of “Health” the editor, Dr. Gordon Batea, General Director of the Health League of Canada, contributes the following: “With the onset of war one is beset by a variety of conflicting emotions—horror, patriotic enthusiasm, fear lest what civilisation has achieved through many centuries may be lost, fervor to hold the ideals we have striven for, dismay that in spite of all we thought we had achieved his reversion to the brute must happen. “Particularly in the field of health conservation most of us who have striven that life may be longerwonder whether our work has been worthwhile. Why should we work to save life—only to have it thrown away? And in the strew and strain of what may be the most terrible war of history shall we take heed that when the war is ended those gains we have made in peace-time may be held? Science has made great strides during the last cen­ tury and the application of science to the needs of preventive medicine has meant that great achieve­ ments have been possible. One after another the great plagues of humanity have been brought under control Fewer infants die in infancy, smallpox, ty­ phoid, the plague have almost disappeared. Diptheria has been brought under control. The tuberculosij rate has been eut in two in a brief few years. The incidence of the sinister venereal diseases has fallen— and it would seem that no longer will syphilis be named the Captain of the Men of Death. And yet all is not well. Pure science will not solve all of our problems. There needs be something else. Faith, unselfishness, charity, love for one’s fel­ lows are not borne of science,' for science brings knowledge only of things. In spite of the science greed, intolerance and cruelty may thrive. Because of these war has come upon a startled world—and until they are no loiter of this earth these vices will plague us and theje will still be wars. It is fitting that huinanity always mounting up­ ward towards the stars should now amid the roar of guns dealing death to saint and sinner alike on thebattlefield take stock of the morrow, strive now that this thing may never happen again. Perhaps the thought is vain—expressed on the threshold of every other war—and yet in spite of wars humanity has accomplished something—as evidenced by a great in­crease in the average length of life in spite of the Hitlers and Napoleons. Why grow these foul fruits amid so gorgeous a harvest born of the great thoughts of men? How may they be destroyed ere they reach even loath­ some infancy? That is the problem of mankind now unless it may reach solution all else is futile. There is right and there is wrong. There is good and bad, moral and immoral. And that which is good and right and moral is that which is for humanity, which is self­ less. And by influence on, the future of humanity should every act be judged. This should be the theme and the reason of our education—and our religion. And until it becomes part of the warp and woof of our daily thoughts and of our body politic the world will continue to be tor­tured by the wickedness of madmen who use their fellow men as dupes for mankind's destruction. An Opportunity To Co-Operatela connection with the marketing of the 19B9 cropof Canadian Apples the foHowing statement hasbeen made by Boa. Jama* G. Gardiner, DominionMinister of Agriculture: “We have been notified that as a result of condi­ tions brought about by the war, the normal quantity of apple* will not be imported into Great Britain from Canada this year. Of * crop of not more than 15,000,000 bushels about 50 per cent, is usall'y ex­ ported. It is nor proposed to dispose of half of the usual export in Canach as fresh fruit and to dryand ean the remainder. “The Government of Canada has already announ­ ced its plan to purchase and process a substantia] por­ tion of the apple crop, and also proposes through the Dominion Department of Agriculture to carry on a national merchandising and advertising campaign for the purpose of informing the public regarding the availability of this excellent fruit and of stimulating home consumption. The grading regulations have been so amended that only the better quality apqleswill be available as fresh fruit. “In this connection, it is believed that everyone In Canada, and particularly the housewife, will be will­ ing to co-operate to bring about a larger consumption of this excellent Canadian fruit during the next few months. This would solve the problem.

To his astonishment all but one reacted; they were suffering from bovine tub^ ercuiosis. The non-reacting cow was, on the advice of the veterinary, slaughtered along with the reactors. She waa found to be riddled with tuberculosis. Think what such a circumstance means! It means that if the uddera I of the cows involved are affected with tuberculosis, the users of the milk, particularly if children, are almost certain to be infected. The use of the tuberculin test inthe herds of the country is.a not­ able precaution against tuberculosis. While it is a matter of considerable loss to the cattle-owner of reacting cattle, involving as it does, the des­ truction of these with but small com­ pensation, it is of high value as a protection against the bovine type oftuberculosis. But since tuberculosis is but one of many infections carried by milk,the public must look in other direct­ ions for protection against such milk- borne affections as undulent fever,septic sore throat, typhoid feyer, scarlet fever, diphtheria and n dozen or so others. The one universalpreventive of 'milk borne disease is pasteurization. Pasteurization of milk, if properly carried out, des­ troys the germs of every known milk-borne disease. If the community where thereader lives Is not provided with a public supply of pasteurized milk, the householder may pasteurize his own supply using a double boiler. The milk is heated to 145 degrees F. kept at this temperature for 80minutes and then rapidly cooled to 40 degrees F, and so kept until used. Milk properly pasteurized and kept at low temperature will keep sweet and pure for an indefinite period. HEALTH LEAGUE of CANADA Price Increases Have Been Within Reason It is impossible to prevent a rise in living cost during a war, and Canadians are beginning to exper­ ience some of the inevitable effects when the entire resources of the country are being mobilized formilitary effort. However, the rise in the prices of commodities so far have not been such as to create fear that the situation will get out of hand. In the case of dairy products and eggs the price to date has not been more than the seasonally advance of the past few years. In primary produces such as wheat, bacon, beef and potatoes, the increoM? do rtot put the prices of these commodities into wartime brackets. They were low to begin with and it might be expected that they would go up with any advance in the normal standard. Indeed, producers fear that they will not keep pace with the enhanced prices of consumer goods. Some increases relate to articles, on which war taxes have been levied, tea, coffee, cigarettes and domestic lighting and heating. The extension of the eight per cent, sales tax to such commodities as ‘smoked meats, f almon and other canned fish and pickled meals, which previously were exempt from that levy, will tend to make the householder's bills more formidable. Then there is the wartime in­ crease in maritime nsurance the arbitrary dis­count on Canadian money in the United States which will contribute something to produce higher prices for goods to consumers. There is widespread confidence that increases inliving costs cannot become eo disconcerting as they proved in the Great War. At that time, profiteers seemed to have the upper hand and were .not timid about taking advantage of conditions. Exposures of the kind of impositions that the public suffered on that occasion gave enlightenment that will prove an advantage now. People will not subrfiib to exorbi­ tant prices for necessities unless they have good rea­ son to believe that they are justified by a legitimate situation. There undoubtedly will be plenty of un­ principled individuals and concerns who will attempt to profit unduly because of war, but they will meet with more intelligent resistance this time. Public opinion can be’readily roused today against unjustified increases in living costa. This io a war in which everybody is expected to make sacrifices for the gen­ eral welfare and anyone taking advantage of the oc­ casion to charge excessive prices is going to encoun­ ter critical investigation of motives. Since the campaign opened on Oct 19th, many contributions have been made to the Red, Cross. The one mill on tirff dollar voted by the council netted $2,200. The amount raised has been something over$8,000.00. The regular monthly meeting of the Women's hos­ pital Trust was held on Monday afternoon at the home of Mrs. John E.

STRONG AND HELPFUL MODERN, EXPERIENCED BANKING SERVICE.,. the outcome of jwn' iucc&ful opmttioa .... ... hi ■■■. iim Ever strong and trustworthy, through 122 years of Canada’s history, the Bank of Montreal has contributed much to this country’s financial security. To the individual depositor the Bank has mean: complete safety for personal savings. To the farmer it has been a strong, usefill ally and a reliable counsel on con­ ditions. To industry it has been a source of financial power and a help in avoiding unwarranted speculation. For Government —national, provincial and local—a depend­ able financial collaborator. All Canadians, whatever their station in life, working for a greater and still greater Canada, know they can place full confi­ dence in an institution which has never changed in character, yet has constantly modernized its services. In 1817 we pio- neered along sound, helpful lines. The year 1939 finds us still pioneering along sound, helpful lines. BANK OF MONTREAL E STABLISH ED 1817 Ingersoll Branch: A. YULE, Manager Beachvillc (Sub-Agency): Open Tuesday and Friday Dairy Farmers Tell Present Position If the general public of Canada has an idea that because of a compar­ atively small increase in the price of batter and other dairy products since the war began that the dairy fanner is profiteering, it is entirely wrong. As a matter of fact he is really in a worse position now than he was before the outbreak of hos­ tilities, the Agricultural Supplies Committee [was told on October 18th by Hon. F. C. Biggs, of Dundas, Ont., who headed a delegation of members of the Standing Committee of the Dairy Catttle Breeds Commit­ tee. The delegation came to explain the position with which dairy pro­ ducers are now confronted as a result of conditions due to the war. He said that the price of manufactured milk in his district is now $1.28 per 100 pounds, while the coat of production an shown in surveys carried out be­ fore the outbreak of the war was $1.92. Prior 'to the start of the war the prices of dairy products were un­reasonably low. The advances which occurred between September 1st and *O6tober 16th in butter and cheese represent about 13 per cent The cost of feeds and,concentrates for dairy cattle has, however, increased from 20 to 40 per cent Mr. Biggsexplained the delegation represented several thousand dairy products in Canada who ore members of Associa­ tions of the four principal dairy breeds of cattle—Holstein-Friesian, Ayrshire, Jersey and Guerney. If an adequate supply of dairy products is to be maintained, he said, certain factors concerning the prevailing prices of feed-stutfs for livestock inrelation to the prices paid for milk and cream to dairy producers would have to be taken into consideration.He urged the diversion of more milk for cheese. The war, Mr. Biggs explained, has vitally affected the cost supply and efficiency of farm labour. Due to en- listments in the Military forces and the drift from farms to manufactur­ ing centres, the situation in regard to farm help has been aggravated. Another factor is that the war hascaused an advance in the -price of farm machinery, farm implements and material". The farmer moat bearauned of the cost of production if an adequate supply of dairy pro­ ducts is to be assured, and the stand­ ard ejf pure bred herds maintained. Thu support of . the Dairy Cattle Breeds Committee in any war efforts to help food production pro pledged. Dr. G. S. H. Barton, Deputy Min­ister, Dominion Department of Agri­ culture, said the representations made by the delegation were appre­ ciated. There w m no doubt but that Aden* eeed to produce crop* for enn- the prices of farm products had been low prior to the start of the war. He explained that it was not yet known just what foodstuffs are re­ quired by Great Britain, nor the quantities that will be needed but it is known that Canadian bacon and cheese will be wanted in substantial quantities. He outlined some of the problems and considerations that have to be dealt with as a result of the war in its relation to food pro­ ducts and their .production. A. M. Shaw, chairman, of the Agri­ cultural Supplies Committee, assured the delegation that their presentation would receive due consideration. Urge Farmer* To Advance Seed Output Because substantial quantities of Canada’s seed requirements are im­ ported from overseas and may be interfered with by the war, the Agri­ cultural Supplies Committee'has set up a special unit to take charge of seed supplies. This unit, the Seed Supply Committee, is composed of officials engaged in the direction of seed control and seed production in the Dominion. Its duties are to en­ sure adequate supplies of seed; to buy and distribute stocks, if necess­ ary, and to maintain maximum pro­ duction of crops, in all parts of Can­ ada, The Seed Committee will also LOANS *50 t. *50 0 Now made here by Central Finance Ma &ida*4M ■i No longer need you go to the Central Finance office inorder to get a Household loan.

While always promoting the use of good seed, the Committee will facilitate the export of surplus seed to the United Kingdom and the allies. For most of its needs, the country is in a fortunate position, states the Committee. There is an ample supply of almost every essential sort of gar­ den and field seeds for the spring of 1940. After that, if war is prolonged, it will be necessary to provide suf­ sumption and crops for seed in 1941. Therefore, the Committee is urging all the skilled farmers who are grow­ ers of Registered and Certified seed to increase the output of seed of the highest quality. This can be done by storing larger quantities of seed this year. The Seed Committee has form­ ulated plans for its individual mem­ bers to follow in the course of their official duties, and progress is beingmade along several lines.

M. Douglas AND SONS CERTIFICATES PRESENTEDINGERSOLL MUSIC PUPILS Students of St. Joseph's Con­ vent School of Music Given Diplomas At Convocation of Western Ontario Conserva­ tory of Music. Pupils of the St. Joseph's Convent School of Music, Ingersoll, were among the more than 350 students from all parts of Western Ontario who received their certificates at tn impressive ceremony in Convocation Hall of the University of Western Ontario, London, last week, that marked the emergence of the West­ ern Ontario Conservatory of Music as a full-fledged affiliate tn the Uni­ versity of Western Ontario. The ceremonies were attended by a capacity audience which included dignitaries of education, business and music in Western Ontario, and the evening was further disting­ uished by the presence of Reginald Stewart, Toronto, pianist-conductor, whose group of piano solos was the musical highlight of the program. The several speakers stressed the importance of this first convocation as a milestone in the cultural pro­ gress of London and district, bt was pointed out that only a year ago the London conservatory was almost non­ existent, and that the convocation was the culmination of 12 months’ arduous work on the part of West­ ern officials and of Harvey Robb, who assumed the principalship of the conservatory when the music school became a part of the University of Western Ontario. Edward E. Reid, president of the conservatory and convocation chair­ man, remarked that the conserva­ tory like its parent body had a modest beginning. “But”, he added, “a moderate beginning on the right basis is highly important, and we feel we have made a good start.” Following the colorful procession­ al, the convocation was opened by Rev. Dr. P. S. Dobson, principal of Alma College. Then the candidates— ranging from tiny tots not much higher than a piano stool, to adults who were awarded diplomas creating them associates of the Western On­ tario ’ Conservatory of Music—filed across the stage to be greeted by Dr. • FA VoAxy, WL edsHtAel rIIn JJp A vr*e»sl Ui.d —e nt, an—d —o-t--h--e-r I convocation officials. Candidates were presented by Dr, Fox, E. W. G. Quantz, Prof. M. E. Bassett, Prof. W. E. Collin, Dr. D, J. Wilson, Dr. S. F. Maine, E. A. Miller, and, Uhose "in absentia,” by Rt. Rev. A. P. Mahoney. The 350-odd certificate winners were pupils of more than 300 teach­ ers in London and many Western Ontario centres, and this fact was stressed by Dr. Fox as evidence of the far-reaching influence of the conservators’. Affiliation had been granted only after careful consideration on the part of the university senate. Dr. Fox said, and each pupil could feel that he bore Western’s stamp of approval. The conservatory would have to overcome the same inertia that had besdt the universiy in its early days, the president added, but it would succeed with the suport of the citi­ zens of Western Ontario. Those from Ingersoll receiving di­ plomas were: Grace Moyse, Jack Fleischer, Dorothy Duffy, Helen Fur­ long. Dolores Desmond, Marguerite Nancekivell, Corrine Jones, Lorr­ aine Leeper, Billy Warden, Babe Morello, Patricia Nadalin, Ethel Crut­ cher and Marco Gasparotto.

Winter use of farm tractors has been in­ creased in many areas by the adopt­ ion of track type tractors or farm tractor tires on wheel type tractors. The increasing winter use hasbrought out the need for special care and servicing during a period when ordinary farm power units are laidup, states G N. Denike, Dominion Experimental Station, Swift Cui- ren, Sask.Tractors with improved cooling sy­ stems and thermostatic control as well as reduced motor and chassis vibration may be filled .wih a good grade of anti-freeze solution to pro­ tect the power plant against thedangers of sudden temperature or load changes throughout the freezing seasons. Cold weather tractor operation demands the same motor care as cold weather car or truck operation. Light weight crankcase oil, S.A.E. lOw or 20w is essential to proper motor lubrication. Light weight gear grease in transmission and differen­ tial is equally important. The change-over to winter lubri­ cants in motor transmission, differ­ ential and pressure gun should take place as soon as the temperature normally reaches freezing. Light lub­ricants of good quality will withstand relatively high temperature better than the heavier lubricants will with­stand lower temperatures. An eariy change-over of lubricants in the tractor which is liable to be run dur­ ing the winter will reduce mainten­ ance costs by thorough lubrication at all times and by flushing out the accumulation of normal summer wear which remains suspended in the heavy summer lubricants. Storage in shop or shed where the temperature may be kept above freezing will help greatly to reduce motor wear as well as prove very convenient. Tractors, whether housed or not, should be given a warm-up period of from 5 to 20 minutes before putting under load during adverse weather. Lower temperatures increase this warm-up period while warm storage will reduce it. Many long haul jobs which were formerly rushed to completion dur­ ing the busy fall season may be ex­ tended through the winter to make better year-round use of the' farm tractor. When weather and travel conditions become impossible fortractor use the machine will be in suitable condition for careful over­ haul. This should be done each year to ensure double-free use in these seasons when delays are most costy. If the tractor is not to be used during cold weather, careful storage in a convenient place for overhaul is highly important. Rubber tired tractors should be blocked up withthe weight off 'the wheels; use of agood rubber pajnt after cleaning will help preserve the tires; tire valves should be turned to the top where they may be conveniently checked for air pressure before the blocks are removed in the spring; if only water is used in the tires as weight, it should be drained before freeing weather, and a quart of pure-anti- freeze solution placed in the tube to prevent damage front that portion ui the water which cannot be thoroughly drained out. Thorough .washing and cleaning down all parts of the motor and chassis before storage, together with fresh grease in all bearings will helpprevent the rusting and coating of essential parts. Fresh paint on all worn or scratched surfaces will pre­ serve the finish and improve the value of the whole machine. Cars Collide A light truck of the Dominion Natural Gas Company driven byGeorge Llewellen and an automobile driven by Elaworth Cousiss, Inger­ soll, were in collision at the corner ofOxford and Charles streets, on Fri­ day last. The truck was travelling east on Charles street and the car west The accident occurred when Cousins turned to the left to go on to Oxford street. Both machines were damaged. “My dear, look here," said Mr. Simkins, as he stood on deck with his wife and pointed to a tug drawingseveral _ barges. "Such is life. The tug is like the man, Working and toil- dpgr, while the barges, like wotaen, 'll knofw,” intertrupted Mrs. Sim­ kins, acidly. "The tug does alt the blowing, while the barges bear all the burden." She—“Don’t you think that in­ fatuation is absurd?" He—“Yea. Just two silly.’’ are they saying about the new Xords? "WHAT A GRAND NEW RIDE I North, East, West... telegrams and letters have been pouring in since the introduction of the big, roomy l*>40 Ford cars. And through them all runs the same refrain: "Congratulations on the grand new ride. You’ve really got something there!’' O f course, there’s praise for all the 22 Ford improve­ ments—Finger-Tip Gearshift; Controlled Ventilation, Sealed-Beam Headlamps—and the rest. There’s enthu­ siastic comment on increased roominess (four inches more usable inside length in Sedans). But the biggest news is the R IDE 1 Cold words can’t describe it. You can say that it’s a combination of softer springs and improved shock absorbers—of a new torsion bar ride-stabilizer—of added room and increa&d quiet—of deep, soft "Floating Edge" Seat Cushions. But there’s only one way to know how skilfully all those things have been blended into serene and soothing comfort. That's to feel it for yourself! Borrow a new Ford V-8 from any Ford dealer. Let those eight s-m-o-o-c-h cylinders whisk you away from the boulevards into the backwoods. Turn the wheel over to some one else and ride the roughest roads in the rear seat. There’s an experience! You’ll find yourself measuring comfort for the first rime in terms of the noises you can’t hear, the bumps you can't feel. It’ll open your eyes—if it doesn’t lull you to sleep!

Evening Guild SponsoredHallowe’en EntertainmentA hiost enjoyable time was had oftFrida)’ evening at the Hallowe'enmasquerade party held under theauspices of the Evening Guild of St. James' Anglican Church, in the parish hall assembly room. So suc­ cessful was the program that the Guild members were requested to sponsor similar programs from time to time during the winter. The hall was prettily decorated in | orange and black Dancing and' games were enjoyed. Jack Firth wasi at the piano and directed the or-,I ehesra, and Arthur Nunn acted asI master of ceremonies.

H* tells Vicky,Anne’s companion, while recuperatingfrom an Injury at Anne's house, thathe believes he saw Elinor take thepearls. Accused by Vicky. Elinor ad­mits her guilt. Vicky promises to getth* pearls from the pawnbroker whereElin yr has taken them and persuade*Francis not to Investigate. Elinor had written: "I am goingaway—tonight—with David. I can'tface Francis, so I'm not comingback. The pawn ticket* and the keyare in my de»k. Some day I'll sendyou the money. You will look after Anne, Vicky? I'm not sorry—exceptabout Anne. I love her.” Vicky stood in the middle of thefloor and wondered what had hap­pened For Elinor had not gone.She was in her room at that very moment. Then why had she writtenthat letter? The next morning Elinor madeher explanation "David wouldn'tgo," she said, “when it came to the final decision He says that he want*to take me hqpcstly. and that I musttell Francis. So I came back andnow I've got to face it" "You mean you're going through with it?”“Yes." "But—Anne?” "She will have to know.” "Have you thought what it willdo to her?" Vicky demanded “She must take her turn." saidElinor darkly, “at finding the worldas it is But I don't want to thinkof Anne. I want to think of myself.What did Francis sav about thepearls?" "He is leaving everything to me.I am going to Baltimore this morn­ing " “Does he suspect?" to Anne. "I'm afraid ” Anne demanded. "Of what?” "Of you." "Of me?” “Yes. When you came to me inthat moonlit meadow, it did some­thing to me.” Color flamed in her cheek*. "Ifyou really meant that, it would benice.” "Nice? Isn’t there a bigger wordfor it than that?" "What word?” "Heavenly.” Vicky interposed, “Am 1 supposedto be listening?” “Of course.” "Then I might suggest that thisis rather strong wine for Anne’slittle head ” Charles laughed and Anne laugh­ed with him. It was all very light­hearted and on the surface butAnne, dressing that night for din­ ner, looked starry-eyed into hermirror. Did he, she wondered, meanit? But he couldn't He was married. She did not see him alone again,but when the next morning he hadgone she found a note on herdresser: “This is my real good-bye, mydear. I shall not see you again.I am tarred with a brush whichmust not smirch you. But at nightwhen I sleep under the stars Ishall look up and see you shining,too far away for me to reach, but■giving always a lovely light” With her heart beating Wfldly shewent to bed. What did it matter, she asked herself, if he were mar­ried? He would worship afar offLike Dante and Beatrice It wouldbe wonderful to think of Charlesas Dante. To Anne, dressing for a ride onthe morning after Charles* depar­ture. was broutrht a message frJmher mother She was to come atonce to the library. Hurrying down, she found both of her parents waiting. She kissedher father, then her mother "Whydid you get up so early, darling?" “Make up my mind?" "Yes. Whether you will live withme until I get my divorce? Or gowith your father? He insists uponmy staying here until everything issettled." To Anne it seemed in that mo­ment as if her father and motherhad receded from the foreground ofher life where she had always placedthem, to some dark region whereher mind could not follow. She murmured unsteadily, "I loveyou both and now I’ve got to giveyou up." Her father said sharply, “Give usup?" “Yes. When I go with Vicky Ishan't come back. I shan’t comeback—ever.” As she went away Elinor and Francis stared at each other. Thiswas what they had donel This wastheir punishment: that the daughterwhom they adored would have noneof them. Yet when the moment of separa­tion came, Anne wept in Francis’arms and clung to her mother."Can’t we all go back," she waited,“iust as we were? Can’t we?" And Francis said. “Can't we.Elinor?” "No. Not even for her sake.” So Anne said farewell to all thehappy things whg£ had belonged to her girlhood ana went by motorto the Eastern Shore. There, tn along low rumbling farmhouse, livedVicky’s parents with their threedaughters. There were two sons;older than Vicky, married, withfarms of their own and with chil­dren growing up about them. Whenthey were all assembled at theHewitt homestead. John Hewitt,the father, seemed a patriarchamong them. It was a warm and comfortablehousehold Mrs. Hewitt, plump andpretty, loved her family and livedfor it. Of old Maryland stock, shecarried on the tradition of expert housekeeping and epicurean cook­ery. Her three daughters—Lettice.Lois and Mary-Lee—were neitherplump nor pretty. They had, indeed, "How can 1 tell?" There was ahint of impatience in Vicky's voice."I. told him nothing.” Elinor made an unexpected apol­ogy. “I don’t know what made medo iL But I was driven.” Vicky said inexorably, "If you gowith David, what then?" “1 want happiness.” Elinor roseand moved about restlessly. “I wanthappiness and I am going to haveit” Vicky flamed, "Perhaps you callit happiness to spoil the life of achild like Anne. But I am not here to criticize you. All I ask is thatyou take time to think what youare doing." “I don’t want to think. I am go­ing to tell everything to Francis to­night. And that will be the endof it.” "It will not be the end. It willbe the beginning.” "The beginning of what?" "Of chaos for all of us.” But Elinor would not listeif, andwhen Vicky left at last fo/Balti­more it was with fear clutching ather heart She hated thfe whole “thing, for she had had no experi- "I’ve been up ail night.” encc with pawnshops but,\having WM lighting sb cigaretteaccomplished her errand, she re- r«nd trembled.

Masquerade PartyAt Sacred Heart HallAn evening of fun and dancingwm held on Wednesday last at theSacred Heart Hall. It was rated asone of the C. Y. O.'s moat successfulsocials where young and old alike joined in the many dances and par­ aded in their eoatumes. In attendance were three "ghosts*’ who received their gueata and made weird moans and rattled their chains in welcome. During thc grand march a wonderful array of costumes were displayed before the judges who decided that Monica O'Meara was the best dressed lady and Jack Warden the best dresaed man.

Pupils W ill Be Passed On Principal’s Recommen­ dation. Annual departmental middle school written examinations will be discontinued in Ontario, Hon. Dr. L. J. Simpson, minister of education, announced this week. Middle School certificates will be iuued on the rec­ ommendations of principals and teachers of secondary schools. The department ofll education will issue high school graduation certificates to those who have completed the work prescribed for the grades of the middle school. The action has been taken with the concurrence of the universities. It is expected the universities and other institution* of higher learning will provide for the admission of applicants who are unable to obtain middle school certificate* by special test* or by the acceptance of teach­ er's report* "or by such other mean* as circumstances warrant.” The minister announced the pro­ vision* under which certain upper school pupils have been granted cer­ tificates of standing on the recom­ mendation of the principal* and teachers of secondary schools will be withdrawn beginning with the school year 1940-41, but that the recommendations of principals and teachers will be accepted with re­ spect to the work of the present school year. r SYRlfii n ------------ii D E L IC IO U S | H U O R X i Masonic Funeral For William H. Byerlay The funeral of William Henry By­ erlay was held from the family resi­ dence, 140 Benson street on Friday afternoon, with a large attendance. Service was conducted at the house at 2.00 o'clock by Rev. Robert D. Gdtherie of London, and a vocal solo, “Jesus Understands,” was ren­ dered by Howard Ryan of London. The Masonic service at the house and graveside was held under the auspices of King Hiram Lodge No. 37, A. F. and A. M., of which de­ ceased was a member. Wor. Bro. Joseph A. Watmough was in charge. Interment was made in the Baptist Cemdtery at Courtland and there were many lovely floral tributes a* evidence of esteem from Mr. Byer- lay’s wide circle of friends. The pall bearers were members of the Mas­ onic Order. H. T. Bower, Dr. H. B. “The special revising board, which has performed a most valuable service in reviewing cases of failure, will continue in existence and will give consideration, as in the past, to borderline cases and to cases in which, by reasons of illness or other special circumstances, such consid­ eration is warranted,” he said. Dr. Simpson indicated that at present a certificate of middle school standing is’required by only a rela­ tively small percentage of those candidates who complete the work of thc middle school, and that the large expense involved in the con­ duct of the middle school examina­ tions is scarcely warranted. - He further expressed his satisfac­ tion with the operation of the sy­ stem of recommendation and his belief that the recommendations of principals and teachers of schools for middle school standing would operate successfully. By reason, however, of the suspen­ sion of the middle school examin­ ations, it was considered desirable that all upper school candidates should be required to' pass a depart­ mental examination before proceed­ ing to the universities, normal schools or other institutions. The mainten­ ance of the upper school examination will make it possible ' to introduce such measures as may be required to preserve adequate standards of scholarship throughout the second­ ary schools of the province.
