Kenneth Roy DANIEL LITTLE THEATRE GUILD GIVE FINE_PERFORMANCE Cast In “Mr. Pina Passes By,” Particularly Suited Their Parts. An amateur production of out­ standing merit, was the three-act comedy by A. A. Milne, “Mr. Pim Passes By,” presented in the Inger­ soll Town Hall on Thursday evening last, November 30th, by members of the Ingersoll Little Theatre Guild. The hall was well filled for the per­ formance with a number of members of the London Little Theatre group as guests. The play was directed by Mrs. C. K. Long, and the characters were all admirably suited for their respective parts. The stage setting for the sho.w was the morning-room at Morden House, in Buckinghamshire, Eng­ land, on a pleasant July, morning, and the three acts all took place in the same setting, and on the. same day, the second act being after lunch and the third a few seconds later. The cast included, Robert F. Wal­ ton, as George Marden, J.P.; Miss Marjorie Haffey, as Olivia Marden, his wife; Mary Haffey, as Dianali Marden, George’s niece; Mrs. G. Vin­ cent Wilson as Lady Marden, George's aunt; Jack Hutt as Brian Strange, a young painter who finally received George’s consent to marry Dianah; Jack Mayberry who played the part of Carraway Pim, an absent­ minded man who visited the Marden home to get a letter of recommenda­ tion from Mr. Marden, and Miss Jean Mackenzie as Anne the maid, in the Marden home. The production staff included— Stage manager, C. K. Long; proper­ tire, Misses Marjorie Kearney and Edith Wood; lighting, Hal. B. Stev­ ens; make-up, C. K. Long; business manager, Allister G. Murray; tickets, Mrs. George D. Beck; advertising, Mjss Jean MacKenzie. Mrs. George D. Beck spoke briefly preceding the presentation and ex­ tended a welcome to the many in'at­ tendance on behalf of the members of the Ingersoll Little Theatre Guild. She explained the woric that is being done by the local Little Theatre Group and invited any one intefested to attend the meetings which are held in the basement of the. Ingersoll Pub­ lic Library the first and third Thurs­ days of each month. The quests present from London paid a fine tribute to the woric of-the members of the east of the play at a short social period held in the town hall, following the performance.. evening. When none of the family could be found Provincial Constable Ben. Milligan and Jack Fulton were called to the -scene. They doubted that a fire that early in the evening would trap every member of the family and despite-the belief of on­ lookers that lives had been lost, started a search for the family and eventually located them. Inability to locate the family of Deloa Atkinson, occupant of the farm for the past three years, caused fears that six persons had perished in the fire. After midnight, more than four hours after the fire started, Provin­ cial Police finally located Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson and their four child­ ren at Springford, where a group of 46 were celebrating the 48th wed­ ding anniversary of Mrs. Atkinson’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Starkey. The house which was burned was of stone structure and was a large two-storey 10-room dwelling, and was one of the oldest houses in Middlesex County. All the contents even to the, clothing of the Atkinson family were Jost The fire-blackened walls still standing, are a ^mark­ able exaniple of pioneer home build­ ing. Stones gathered from the dis­ trict had evidently been split by a sledge hammer and then cemented together. The stones of all sizes and shapes and varying colon had been skilfully fitted together with a big chimney at either end. Mr. Atkinson said that when he moved in three or four yean ago, he was told the Lea family had lived there 65 yean and that the house had been standing for 60 yean prior to that. That would bring its age to 125 yean. Miss Ida Lea, now living at 371 Hale street, daughter of Henry Lea, who bought the house, doubted that her family had -lived there 65 yean, but said it was many yean; She said her father bought the houde from a Mrs. Beat- tie, who she believed was a member of the family that built it Anglican Women's Guild ,• Plan Annual Tea The regular meeting of the Wom­ en’s Guild of S t James* Anglican Church, was held in the assembly rooms of the parish hall on Thursday afternoon with a good attendance.

T.H.BAULAND, LONDON SPEAKER AT IIWAMS “Chnads A* Seen Through The Ey»-» of a Dutciunnu,” Wm Subject of Humorous andAmuaing Talk. Ladle* Were Present Aa Guests. Member- of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club .aid thfcir lady gaesta were en- jogmbly entertained at the weekly supper meeting of the club held on Thursday evening last when the guest speaker was T. H. Bauland of the Walkerside Dairies Limited, London. President Dr. C. A. Ogburn occu­ pied the chair and introduced the speaker to the gathering. A pro­ gram uf entertainment was provided in addition to the address of the speaker. Thfci included numbers by a quartette eumpouid of Kiwuniam Rev. Charles D. Daniel, F. Earl John- ston, F. Heath Stone and Royden G. Start, in costume, with Kiwsnian Laurie M. Sommer at the piano. L. M. Sommer gave rome vocal num­ bers with Ewart Bartley an accom­ panist, while Miss Muriel Parker played for the sing song which was led by Rev. C. D. DanieL The booster for the evening was Kiwan-ian James McArthur and Kiwanian1 W. A. McDougall gave his biography. The prize winners were Mrs. C. A. Osborn and Samuel L. Shelton. Mr. Bauland’s subject was “Can­ ada As Seen Through the Eyes of a Dutchman," and was a story of his | own life from the time he first de­ cided to come to Canada from Hol­ land to make his home. The talk was one of the most enjoyable given at the club meetings in some time, it was marked by its simplicity and brevity and was replete with much humor and amusing incidents which contained many lessons and moral truths. Mr. Bauland at the outset of his talk, said that when he was taking the oath of allegiance to the British cro.wn only a few short years ago in Canada, be was one among many for­ eigners who did not fully understand all that it meant—but he is sure he understands and appreciates it all today. One of a group of young Dutch friends, he had in Holland had given him the idea that be would be met at the gangplank by many pros­ pective employers bidding for his services, and •oon—very soon—he would be returning to his native land with much money very easily earned. “Well,” said the speaker, “there were no prospective employers rush­ ing onto the gangplank at Montreal where we landed to bid for my ser­ vices. There was not even one who could speak my language. I showed the conductor at' the train how much money I had and told him I .wanted to go west In Holland we had been shown so many picture* of cowboys peopling the country of Canada that I had even taken some riding lessons and shooting lessons to equip myself for this new country. The conductor gave me a ticket for the amount of money I bad and I went west—I got as far a« LOrdon.” His remarks were merely exper­ iences encountered since coming here and they were told in a way that held the attention of his audience. In concluding his remarks, Mr. Bauland said, “that he was happy to see his children sitting on the same school benches with your children, and 'saying (with them that beautiful and strong poem that we all know and love, ’Breathes there a man with soul so dead* who never to himself hath said, this is ray own, my native land.” Kiwanian Reg. A.* Stone ably ex­ pressed the thanks of. the gathering to the speaker. In his remarks,. Mr. Stone made it plain that there had been both a lesson and a moral to be found frm Mr. Bauland’s address and on behalf of the .club, he welcomed him as a citizen of Canada.

VEALE Proprietor ana Editor PHONES —Tribune Office. 13 - Residence, *UA - Member of — The Canadian Weekly Newspaper*’ Assncinlion THURSDAY. DECEMBER 7th, 1939 Canada and Greece Greece is one of the greqt imperial countries that have fallen far from their former greatness, a coun­ try that produced men of learning, philosophers poets, Btajesmen and warriors. Today,^Canadian school children are taught much ot what Grecian youth were taught many long centuries ago. But its modern history has been less fortunate. Subject to Turkish rule since the 15th century, Greece recovered its independence in 1830 and after a suc­ cession of rules of the Glucksburg dynasty, became a republic in 1924. However, it was again declared a kingdom in 1935 with a senate and a chamber of deputies, the latter elected for four years by man­ hood suffrage. In 193«, owing to political difficulties and the menace of communism, dictatorial powers were assumed by General Metaxas and his cabinet and parliamentary government suspended.During the Great War, Greece * delcared for the Allies against the Central Powers, supplying 150,000 soldiers and her territories much reduced in modern times were increased. She also received a mandate for the occupation and "administration of the town and district of Smyrna, but forces of the Angora Government, under Mustafa Kemal Pasha, recovered the mandated region in 1922. The Greek force* were annihilated, Smyrna evacuated and the Greek popula­ tion of Asia Minor which escaped massacre took refuge in Greece. By the Treaty of Lausanne of 1923, Eastern Thrace and the islands of Imbros and Tenedoi were retroceded to Turkey.. Greece is now composed of a continental portion, the southern part of the Balkan Peninsula, and of islands in the Aegean, Mediterranean and Ionian Seas. The surface is nearly all mountainous and the coasts deeply indented. The area is estimated at about 50,- 000 square miles and the population about six and a quarter million. Agriculture is the principal industry, and employs more than half the population, the most important product being tobacco which account* for nearly half the total exports of Greece. The country is rich in minerals and the chief industries arc smelting, textiles and shipbuilding.Greece purchases large quantities of Canadian wheat, the amount last year being about one and a half million bushels and in return receives consider­ able amounts of dried currants, figs, raisins and other prepared fruits, as well as wines, brandies and furs. The total trade between the two countries amounted last year to about $1,500,000. The Friendly Philosopher 1 knew whet the boy« is cornin’ to nowdays, **vs Uncle Gn >ct‘ry Potto the other day. They’re alius wantin’ to run off and play ball, when milkin’ is better <jaer*>s< I want my beys to home, where there 7- alh>* plenty of work to do. You can’t keep your boys to home that way, I saya. If you’d give ’em u to have * little fun now and then you'd find they'd ilkv tb.o fam better and git more work done, Or better still, make their work fun, 1 say*. For ,i-.stance, a little music in the cow barn will put any­ body in the mood for milkin’—even the cow*. Take your radio out there, I *aya, and you’ll git yourself more milk per rhumb* than you got per scol­ din’ before. And jest to be sure you don’t ever leave the boys strinded musically—use batteries built in layers. Uncle Greg took my advice. He installed a radio with layer-built batteries and he’s takin’ to milkin’ again himself. Canada’s Many Props In the first world war Canada was a house with one main prop—wheat. It was a sound prop and it strongly supported the Empire as well as the Dominion. We are fortunate to have that wheat prop today, but in a quarter century we have also developed other sup­ ports for our economy. As an indication of the in­ crease in our manfacturing, more than half the popu­ lation is now urban, according to the 1939 report of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. We are known the world over for the progress of our mining. This year we are producing eight and a half million bar­ rels of oil. Canada is no longer a house with only one prop. It is a house supported by many industries. All of them may be fully needed before this war is over. It is part of our job on behalf of civilization to keep them all strong. “Your stories of desperate encoun­ ters with tigers, Colonel, remind me of an adventure I had when I was a child,” remarked the quiet member of the club. “I ran away from my nurse (hav­ ing been frightened by an elephant, and suddenly found a full-grown lion glaring at me on my right, while on my left a leopard was snarling.” “By gad! How did you escape alive?"’ cried the Colonel. “Ran back to my nurse,” drawled the quiet man. “You see, I was on a visit to the zoo.” LOOKING BACK 23 YEARS From the File* of The Oxford Tribune, Ingersoll, Canada*Thursday, Dec. 7, 1916 — Frew — HEALTH LEAGUE of CANADA THE CONQUEST OF PNEUMONIA The American Public Health Asso­ ciation, meeting in Pittsburg, label* pneumonia as “public health enemy No. 3”, indicating that this affection comes third in the category of life destroyer* and being only exceeded in this respeet by heart disease and cancer. There are signs that pneu­ monia may be conquered at an early date. Heretofore, the use of serums, oxygen tents and careful nursing have been principal agencies in treatment. Last year that of dagenan or sul­ fapyridine was added with spectacu­ lar results. The mortality, in closely checked experiments, came down from 25 to 8 per cent. Last week the Mellon Institute of Pittsburg announ­ ced the development of another new anti-pneumonia drug known by the overpowering name <rf “hydroxyethy­ lapocupreine.” It is made from quin­ ine and is said to be more effective than dagenan, not causing the nau­ sea, vomiting and other nasty effects of the latter. Needless to say all these new drugs are .potentially dangerous in the hands of the inexperienced. They must be carefully used and applied in the proper dosage. They are em­ phatically not remedies to be sold to everyone over the drug counter. Another remedy for pneumonia appears under the head of a vaccine and Dr. Felton of the National Insti­ tute of Washington, D.C., says that | it constitutes a preventive of "great promise.” Ita effect* last only for about one year, but preliminary ex­ periments show it to be quite effect­ ive in preventing pneumonia. Perhaps when the coming winter is over, we shall be able to speak with more confidence regarding these new rem­ edies. BACTERIA IN MILK Mr. J. W. Clipsjiam, evidently- a layman of Sparrow Lake, Ontario, in the Globe and Mail of the 4th of November, provides one of the best letters on the subject uf milk that has appeared. Me remarks how funny it is that people who objaet to dead bacteria in pasteurized milk, swal­ low dead pig, dead chicken, dead oysters or dead sardines without a whimper. The opponents of pasteurization sny that thU process destroys the ‘life* of milk and at the same tune forget that all ‘life’ in milk is im­ purity, none of which is beneficial and some of Which may be dangerous. “Milk from a tuberculous cow,” he pointe out, “may be infected with tuberculous germs which may thus be transmitted to children for whom milk is indispensable. Similarly the Bang bacillus may infect the user of raw milk with undulant fever.” “But,” as he says, "the tale is but half told: The person who milk* the cow may be diseased; he may have septic sore throat, tuberculosis, diph­ theria or summer complaint He may have had typhoid fever or foe may be' a ‘carrier* of this disease. If the milk ha* not been pasteurized, it may be deadly! Finally this discerning writer says that the handling of milk by infected persons is not ideal. How do we know that the quart of milk left on ofar doorstep has not thus been contaminated?" We don’t know, but (where pasteurization is in force) we can drink it in safety. "Unless,” say* Mr. Oipsham, “you prefer to swallow your germs alive, you will choose only, and drink m safety, pasteurized milk.” Pay Debt Off Farm Urge* Mr. Gardiner, Give It a Chance “Give the old farm a chance,” urged Hon. J. G. Gardiner, Dominion Minister of Agriculture, in his ad­ dress at the annual dinner of the United Grain Growers Ltd., held at Winnipeg recently. Said Mr. Gar­ diner: "If you will now travel over the farms of Canada with me, I think you will all agree that at least 90 per cent of what is essential to life upon the farm was put there before the last war, excepting in the new areas settled just before that time. This would seem to indicate that the ®War-Time Foreign Exchange Problems War-time condition* hava brought In Foreign Exchange Control. Regulations promulgated in the Canada Gazette on September 15th affect fiearly all bushen, directly or indirectly, if in doubt as to procedure under the new regulations, consult any branch manager of the Bank. If he doesn't know the answer, he wfll find out from Head Office. Revisions of the regulations are being made from time to time as the situation demands. By keeping In touch with Imperial Bank officers you will be Informed as to the significance of these changes, and the steps necessary to conform with them. IMPERIAL BANK OF CANADA Head Office: TORONTO BIANCHIS THBOUQHOUT CANADA beginning of this war is a good time to make a complete inventory and determine upon ways and means of consolidating rather than expanding holdings and activities. “Allow me to draw the conclusion; The old farm has too often been used to finance a start in life for some member of the family rather than to consolidate the position of persons who are going to remain on the farm. “Give the old farm a chance. Clear it of debt and get reasonable equipment and good livestock on it. A debt-clear average farm secures a better living for anyone having it than most jobs which can be picked up around towns and cities. A farm mortgaged to the hilt is a millstone about the necks of persons who are growing old. Experience during the past eight years has proven that. There are too many men and women from fifty to sixty years of age left “alone on farms once occupied by children ,who have gone elsewhere and the old people have nothing left but the mortgage. "That is not the fault of the farm nor is it altogether the fault of the prices we have been getting. Farm­ ing must retain as working capital a larger share of the annual income during the next period of good crops and good prices than it did between 1914 an 1930. None of us are look­ ing for the prices for farm products during this war which we received during the last war. But we are look­ ing for sufficient to make up for the terrible licking we have taken during the past ten years. If we get it and if we have learned our lesson we will not expand but we will consoli­ date our holdings with every dollar we get hold of.” Teacher—“Now children, can you tell me what a grudge is?” Junior—“Yes, teacher. A grudge i* a place wjierc you keep motor can. To Make A Will Is Most Important Trust companies, executors, and other organizations concerned with the interpretation of the wills of de­ ceased persons and the administration of their estates repeatedly encounter puzzles in the documents in which are set forth the disposal of the deceased’s property. Sometimes the witnessing of the will is neglected. Frequently the names of persons to whom bequests are made are not correctly recorded. In other cases the language is so ambiguous that much difficulty is experienced in reaching a conclusion as to what the maker of the will intended. The situation is said to be getting better because much information is being disseminated as to the correct procedure in making wills, but there are still many cases so complicated that interpretation by the .courts has to be sought. There are dozens of such cases now under official scrutiny in Canada, some of which involve interesting points. There is one to be heard in a court not far from Ingersoll in which a woman made a will but also enclosed cash bequests in envelopes which she left in charge of a friend, for disposal after her death. One of the envelopes did not contain cash but only the name on the outside with the figures $1,000. None of the envelopes be­ quests were referred to in the will and the executors must leave it' to the court to decide what was the testator’s intention. In another Ontario case, the names of several heirs were wrong and also some institutions were incor­ rectly described. In the majority of such cases, the courts are able to make a satisfactory decision. In general, making of wills is a duty subject to manifold neglect. Many people shrink from the re­ sponsibility bectause they imagine it is an admission of impending death. Those who have had wide exper­ ience with regard to the entanglements and expensivelitigation that often is Aaracteristic in the allocation of a deceased person!/ property, where no will was made, or where tfie document was faulty, are strong in their recommendations that everyone ought to make a will and be sure thit the language is direct and specific. A regular meeting of the town council was held in the council chamber on Monday evening. The Mayor, W. J. Elliott was in the chair with Councillors Roger­ son, Comiskey, Bloor, Buchanan and Clear present. A resolution was put through recommending that the Water, Light and Sewer Commission erect an electric sign with the town name on it near the railway-tracks, the object being to advertise Ingersoll. The resigna­ tion of B. Butler, a* night constable, was accepted and Walter Holmes was engaged to fill his position. The presence of Brigadier Bettridge of Toronto, in the Army Citadel, Ingersoll, last Friday evening, was an incentive for members and non-membera of the Army, to attend and. hear the address given by this well-known Army worker. An organization has been formed which will be, known as The Three Thousand Club, its objective b6ing to put into effect a new contribution system, to be used for patriotic purposes.

Many people have been hangbig ’^>n to their dollars with the idea that they would need them for Christmas purchases. The trade of this year ought to come nearer to normal volume despite the warfPeople who buy their gifts early get the pick of the goods. The assortments are full, white those who delay buying will find that many of the attractive articles have been snapped up by early customers. There seems something positively wrong in the old-fashioned practice of delaying such purchases un­ til the week before the holiday jend then rushing into the stores in one grand jam. It is not possible to buy goods well under such conditions. The clerks cannot possibly wait on all-such customers when the stores arc so full. People must buy the stuff without getting much information about -it, and as a result they are of ten - disappointed in the purchases thus made so late in the season. It also seems inhuman treatment for store and postal employees to require them to lift such a moun­ tain of work in a few days or a week, when the great majority of people could just as well buy their Christmas stuff -early and get that business out of the way. The inevitable result of the Christmas rush' is that many store and postal workers become over­ tired, and the epidemic of colds and grip that so frequently comes along about New Years is probably due in part to fatigue incurred in the Christmas rush. If we have any money ahead, let us make the store and postal worker* happy by getting our purchases out of the way. We have only fourteen days left in which to shop before Christmas. Let us do our buying now—do not put it off another day—and do our part to relieve the terrible scramble and rush of last minute shopping. A meeting of the Ingersoll Collegiate Institute Lit­ erary Society was held on Friday, December 1st, at 3 o’click.

ANDREW’S NIGHTOBSERVED AT EMBRO The Scottish love of freedom b as inextinguishable as ever and is carrying the Scottish race into the present war whole-heartedly, Justice J. Keiiler MacKay told the Caledonia Society at the annual St. Andrew’s banquet in the Masonic Hall, Embro,last Thursday night. Justice MacKay was the guest speaker of the evening and built his address about two passions of the Scottish race, love of freedom and love of education. The speaker outlined the part played by those of Scottish birth and descent in the war of 1914-1913 and told the gathering that Scots are back of the empire to a similar ex­ tent in the present struggle for free­ dom. St. Andrew was the first martyr of the Christian Church and those who recognize him as their patron .saint are still willing to make the sacrifice for their ideals. Today the Scottish shores were the first again to suffer in the battle against tyranny. Justice MacKay told of exploits of Highland regiments down through history and said that their place in British history did not give them all credit due. The British army as at present constituted was in a high state of efficiency and in its fore are the Scottish regiments. The banquet . was presided over by Alex. H. McCorquodale, president of the Caledonia Society, who was toastmaster of the evening. The toast to Canada and the Empire was proposed by A. S. Rennie, M.P., and responded to by Lt-Col. Hon. Dr. D. M. Sutherland. Craig McKay, Crown Attorney for Oxford County,proposed the toajt to St Andrew and introduced Justice McKay. Among the artists in the musical program were R. J. Mountford, of Woodstock, and Mrs. Hugh McIntyre, CONSTIPATION FLATTENS YOU OUT • Don’t let the burden of constipa­ tion get you down I Millions havefound relief through u simple ch*oge in their breakfast.
