ASHMAN SPONSORED I Scottish Program Given MARION J. RODENHURST FINE ENTERTAINMENT ln St p*u1'*Churd’ WEDS GEORGE N. MILLER Many Attended The “Farmer* Day” Program and Dance On Friday Last In Ingersoll Town Hall. Wilfrid S. Ashman, local McCor­ mick-Deering International Harvester agent, in conjunction with the Inter­ national Harvester Company, enter­ tained the farmers of the Ingersoll district, their families and friends, in the Ingersoll Town Hall on Friday, January 26th. The afternoon entertainment open­ ed with a film showing the great part International trucks and industrial tractors do to keep the highways of Canada clear of snow during the win­ ter season. The second film shown was a comedy which greatly pleased the audience. Following the second film, Mr. S. B. Bedell, district repre­ sentative of the International Har­ vester Company, outlined briefly the new 1940 models of McCormick- Deering machinery and then introdu ced Alf. Dotby. Alf. and his stooge, “Tommy,” entertained the a'udience with very clever feats of magic and ventriloquism. Barney Siim, service manager at the London, Ontario branch of In­ ternational, gave a very educational talk on the new Farmall tractors, “A” “H”, and “M,” and at the end of the program helped many farmers with their tractor service problems. The third film was an educational one, showing the new improved fea­ tures such as, the lift-all, cultivision, cultivator gang shift, all available with ’the new farmalls, “A,” “H”, and “M.” The next picture was acomedy, showing the*actions of a city boy who thought he knew all about farming, but really knew nothing concerning farm work. The afternoon performance closed with a picture of the visit to Canada and United States of King George and Queen Elizabeth. The entertainment of the evening followed the same theme as the after­ noon and at its conclusion a dance was held with music provided by Ollie Moffatt and his orchestra of Ingersoll. A good time was had by the many who attended. Radio Inspector Is In Town Mr. A. G. E. Argue, of London, Radio Inspector for the Radio Divis­ ion of the Department of Transports, arrived in town this week, and -in speaking with The Tribune, stated thqt a canvass would be made of the homes of the town and district to as­ certain if all owners of radios had their licenses. He pointed out that »t is not the wish of the inspectors to bring people into court, but the law requires that a person must have a license to operate each radio and on checking up it has been found that there a rd still some that have no lic­ enses for 1939-1940, although they should have been obtained in April, 1939. The Scottish program presented on Wednesday evening, Jan. 24th, in St. Paul's Presbyterian, Church oy MacDuff Copeland and Kenneth Duff, was well attended. These artists ap­ pealed under the auspices of the evening group of the Ladies Aid Society. Rev. Dr. H. H. Turner, minister of the church, welcomed the audience and introduced the enter­ tainers. The program was spiced with variety. There were numbers to suit all and the applause that greet­ ed the performers indicated that their entertainment was enjoyed and appreciated. In fact it was claimed by many to be one of the best per­ formances staged in Ingersoll in many years. The artists were real versatile -entertainers, Mr. Copeland being one cf the organizers of an cn tertainment for the Canadian sol­ diers in the last Great War, that was graced by the presence of His Majesty, King George V.

R. VEALEProprietor ana EditorPWONES:—Tribune Office, 13 - Residence, Sad— Member of —The Canadian Weekly Newspaper*’ AssociationTHURSDAY, FEBRUARY 1st, 1940 Canadian Lime Lime is one of the common things that have a great deal to do with our Canadian life and progress. We produce more than half a million tons of it in a year. It is also known as caustic lime, quicklime or calci­ um oxide. It is snow white and strongly alkaline. In contact with water, for which it has great affinity, it increases in bulk, evolves much heat and changes to the hydrate. Unless kept in a dry pt we it will absorb moisture and catfbonic acid gas from the air and change to the carbonate. Lime, except fcr certain impurities, is entirely soluble in water, the impurities being silica, alumina and iron oxide. It is never found native but limestone may contain a very large percentage. For ordinary commercial uses, lime is obtained by heating limestone, shells, or other material composed of calcium carbonate, to a temperature high enough to drive off the carbonic acid gas. Owing to its property of hardening, by change to calcium car­ bonate, and its comparative cheapness, lime is the most important of building materials. In Canada lime is marketed principally as quick­ lime in the lump, pebble, crushed, and pulverized forms. Less than twenty per cent of the output is marketed in the hydrated state, which is a specially prepared slaked lime in the form of fine powder. In these various forms Canada's lime output finds a multitude of uses in chemical and metallurgical pro­ cesses and in construction, agriculture, and other industries. A new market for white, high calcium lime has been opened up recently as a result of the u«n of calcium carbonate filler in place of imported clay in newsprint and magazine paper. Canada possesses an abundance of limestone suit­ able for the production of lime, and lime is manufac­ tured in every province except Prince Edward Island. Saskatchewan’s production, however, is in­ termittent, and is very small. Ontario, the leading producer, supplies more than one-half of the total Canadian output. Because of their proximity to mines and pulp mills, considerable interest has been shown recently in deposits of wKigh-calcium limestone in the northern part of the province. Quebec, which is next in order, is the source of slightly more than one-quarter of the total output. Both high-caliium and dolomitic limes are produced in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Ontario and Manitoba, but only high-cal- cium is made in Quebec, Alberta, and British Col­ umbia. Urge* Ontario Farmers ToObtain Seed NowOntario farmers are urged by the provincial Min­ister of Agriculture, Hon. I* M De»:m, to r makearrangements immediately to obtain spring seed."The result of a provincial seed survey just completed by Agricultural Representatives, shows thereis plenty of good quality seed to meet the needs ofOntario farmers for spring planting. But thia is teo.i- tingent on farmer* arranging for their needs right away or at the earliest possible moment as there also is a keen demand for seed outside the province," said Mr. Dewan. “Farmers, in my opinion, would be well advised to get in touch with their agricultural representative, chairman of their field crop association or manager of seed cleaning plant to learn the nearest and best source of supply. If we are to increase production we must use better seed and, as a result of this sur­ vey, we know where this better seed is,” Mr. Dewan stated. The dissolution of Parliament has left the Ontario Legislature somewhat up in the air. Premier Hepburn was aiming to complete his budget after the Federal Government had announced its new taxation. Some of the predicted new taxes may not be imposed at present but people should not worry on that account because the levy will be made in due time. In the meantime the government will devote its attention to collecting Succession duties from old estates. LOOKING BACK 23 YEARS From the Files of The Oxford Tribune, Ingersoll, Canada, Thursday, February 1st, 1917 John J.

Bullet Proof Tyre A British Army lorry has just done a run of 50 miles after a marksman, dropping down on one knee, fired several shots from only a few yards range at one of its inflated pneumatic tyres. , The lorry returned from the run with the tyre’s efficiency unimpaired by the fusillade of bullets which had gone straight through it and into a pile of sandbags beyond. Britain, which gave the world the pneumatic tyre with the invention of John Boyd Dunlop just over fifty years ago, has now perfected an air-filled tyre which is bullet proof. The process is a closely guaid- ed secret and is the result of years of research. The tyres are not bullet proof in the sense that armour plate may be; although bullets will penetrate them, there is no immediate deflation, and they are so little affected that vehicles fitted with them can run at normal speeds to a place of safety for replace­ ment The new cars which are being built in unpreced­ ented numbers for the Army are being fitted with these tyres. More than 50 types of vehicle are being produced in Britain at a rate exceeding the pace of production achieved by any country in the world, and the bullet proof tyre is only one of many war trans­ port inventions which are making the mechanised Army the most efficient ever put into the field. Among special vehicles are those fitted as labora­ tories, wireless stations, laundries, workshops, offices and sterilising stations. E. J. Beaumont, County Clerk at Kitchener, re­ ceived word on Jan. 27th, of the death of his only son, Lieut. George J. Beaumont, who was accidentally wounded earlier in the week at a bombing instruct­ ion camp on the Somme front. He was in his 24th year and enlisted with the Queen’s Own Rifles in Toronto. LIbut. Beaumont was a grandson of Mis. Emma Wood, Skye street, Ingersoll. The following officers of Oak Lodge, No. 120, A. O.U.W., were installed on Frifcay night by Past Grand Master Workman, Bro.

The death of Walter Paterson occurred at Alex­ andra Hospital early Tuesday morning after an ill­ ness of many weeks. He is survived by a widow and three children, Archie, Bert and Earl. The death took place on Monday afternoon of Robert C. Marshall, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. William McKay, Noxon street. Britain's Fanners Free .66 Ships More than half Britain’s annual wartime requiie- ments of sugar will be supplied (this year by her Own sugar beet industry, thanks to la record 1939 crop, yielding 500,000 tons of white sugar. Besides providing each citizen with 23 pounds of sugar this will release 66 cargo steamers for import­ ing essential goods which cannot be produced in Britain. And the cargo space of 40 more ships whl be saved because of the cruder sugar extracted— molasses, for cattle food, from the home-grown beet. Thus, the taxpayer, who in the past has been called' upon to subsidise the industry, is now drawing ample dividends from his investment pearly 350,000 acres of beet were grown last year, compared with practically none during 1914-18, and to make sure of another record yield the Government* have guaranteed farmers a substantially increased price for the 1940 crop. The average yield of beet is about eight tons per acre and 6 14 tons of beet give one ton of sugar. Sugar beet pulp, left over after the sugar has been extracted, is another valuable by-product as it can be fed to all classes of stock in place of cereal meals. The beet tops, which are cul off in the field, are ex cellent for sheep. With a little grazing/ode acre of tops will feed 100 ewes for a week, and if not needed immediately, the tops can be converted into nutritious silage.

Britain’s Huge Rail Order £9,750.000 For Wagon*, Engine* and Equipment. Ten thousand goods wagons and 240 locomotives, together costing £8,000,000 are being 'built in Brit­ ain for use on sections of the Frencn railways operated by the Britisii army. About £1,750,000 worth of railroad and dockside equipment has also been ordered. The locomotives, which can be used in Britain after the war, will be of the latest tender type for heavy goods work on the London Midland and Scottish Railway, and are known to engineers, and to many schoolboys, as “2-8-0”, which refers to their two front bogie wheels and eight large wheels. The huge order for the B.E.F. wili not prevent British engineers from continuing to build for overseas cus­ tomers. “After negotiations with the Minis­ try of Supply we were able to agree on the amount of producing capacity to 'be devoted to munitions, the amount for B.E.F. locomotives, and the amount that was to be devoted to export trade," said Mr. R. S. Hud­ son, Secretary for the Department of Overseas Trade. “We sent telegrams to our representatives abroad telling them, ’You can now approach our customers in the important market* and say that if they will place orders at once for locomotives, we can guarantee delivery*." The enduraneq qualities of Brituh locomotives are famous throughout the world.

Students of the Ingeraoll Colleg­ iate Institute and the senoir grades of Victory Memorial Public School, were privileged to see talking pic­ tures tracing the development of the telephone from the early efforts of Alexander Graham Bell up to the present time. The films were shown in the Ingersoll Town Hall on Thura day afternoon, January 25th, through the courtesy of the Bell Telephone Company of Canada. The hall was filled to capacity and all present greatly enjoyed the pic tures. Arrangements for the tele­ phone Sound Mqtion Pictures show­ ing in Ingersoll was made through the efforts of Mr. Henry I.

At the conclusion of the pictures, the thanks of the gathering to Mr. Stewart and the Ingersoll Telephone Company, xas extended by Ronald Bigham, vice-president of the I.C.I. Literary Society. The pictures shown were “The Conquest of Time," which revealed the history af the telephone from Bell’s early efforts until the around-thc-world conversation of 1935. It was an interesting story of man’s triumph over space and time. “Far Speaking”, was a story of the development of the telephone from a*’“toy” to the present-day marvel of engineering science and universal service. In this reel was shown the problem of switching, the growth of exchanges and lines, and the devel­ opment of the vacuum tube., “Get­ ting Together." told another angls of the telephone development, and w*as presented in an amusing cartoon form. In this, an “imp” ex­ plored the telephone and found how it was made, then to music, the 274 parts of a dial hand set and mount­ ing marched together without pet- ceptible means.of locomotion to be­ come a complete instrunfeat “Grey Owl’s Strange Guests,” was a film that provided an absorbing story of the beaver’s life, habits, and point of view. It showed the extraordinary affection these animals had for the late “Grey Owl,” the soldier-natur­ alist who undertook the restoration and preservation of the beaver. “An Empire Link", was the title of the last reel. It traced the telephone were among British achievements in 1939. Orders have also been given for 58 locomotives for Turkey and big consignments of rolling stock fo«* Egypt and South Africa. Canadian Red Cross To Open Residential Club Toronto, Jan. 27—The Canadian Red Cross Society's first residential club for the accommodation of Can­ adian soldiers on'leave in London, England, will be opened within the next few days, it was announced to- day. It will provide overnjght accom­ modation, duj service and meals at “very modest" rates. Acting * on a report from its Lon­ don Advisory Committee, the Society recently authorized immediate estab­ lishment of such clubs to care for the Canadians, During the last war, the Society’s Maple Leaf Clubs provided 500,000 night’s lodging and over one million meals to Canadians on leave in Lon­ don, and this added to the comfort as well as the health of the men of the Canadian army. A report from London states that a similar club provided during the present war by the Victoria League in London, is already over-crowded and applicants are (being turned away. The buildings and equipment to be provided by the Canadian Red CroA will be operated by the Canadian Women’s Club in London, the Red Cross underwriting the net cost of this operation.

Hog Producers Can Hold British Markets In connection with the Canadian bacon to be supplied to the British Ministry of Food up to 5,600,000 pounds weekly, or such additional quantities as may be available for export up to the limit needed, the Agricultural Supplies Board urge­ producers to combine quality with economical production. If a high I standard of quality is maintained it I will mean that Canadian bacon will be assured of an established placeI on the British market after the wa»* is over. The Board..emphasizes that produ­ cers bear in mind that the sow and litter at farrowing and until weaning require special care. Suitable farrow­ ing quartern should be provided, par­ ticular attention being paid to see that they are dry and free ‘from drafts. Feeding should be carefully con sidered before and after farrowing, and sanitation is urged to avoid in­ ternal parasites and oth^j- diseases. The litter should be guarded agairuc exposure. Young pigs are inclined to be subject to anaemia unless pre­ cautions are taken to prevent it.

Payment of these debts on a monthly basis has been done for the first, time in the parish, it was pointed out. There had been expenditures of a rather large amount of money for very much needed repairs to toe buildings he stated. Mention was made of the fact there had been a substantial reduction on bank indebtedness and on the parish hall mortgages. Since 1937, the in­ debtedness to the church has been reduced some $2,000. In 1937^it war $8,728 and now it stands at $6,850. The various societies of the church made excellent contributions to the debt on the church. The sum of $12,000 was received from all sources during the past year, and each so­ ciety has a favorable balance qt> hand, it was pointed out. It was stated that there are 22 separate societies in the parish, no­ including eight gymnasium classes which meet during the week-days. In this regard, Rev. Mr. Merifield said he would earnestly draw the attention of the church to the physi­ cal, social, moral and religious phases of the church mid-week activity. “1 am fully aware that in Ingersoll the variety and number of inducements offered to the young people is, tj say the least, immense.

Anything which may upset or hinder these three time-honored institutions in their God-given work among the young . and old is detrimental to the well-being of the community. I therefore urge the parents to do /all within their power and persuasion < to return their children to the normal life to be had through the home, the school and the church.” Rev. Mr. Merifield added that in the town there are some 80 organ­ izations for less than 1,000 children and the net result is that when pres­ sure is put on the children to join these various organizations it is taking away from the help they coud be receiving from the church and is producing results that in a few years may react most unfavorably in the lives of the children. Continuing his address to the meeting, the rector asked for a greater spirit of friendliness among the members of the church and for the continued work of the committee of welcome at the church doors.

And when our nation is at war, nat­ urally the church is at war for her services enter into every experience of life. And for the time b^ing, we must be concerned with re-arranging our lives to assist our country In achieving her greatest war effort. “Now 1940 looms ahead. Not only must the regular activities of the church be kept going but in addition each individual and every organize tion must enhance insofar as it Is humanly possible our country’s war effort. The minds and hearts of our people must be concerned in war­ time with the deep matters as ir. peace time. Our cry at all timet must be to the sovereign and the gracious God who makes all thing; work together for the accomplish­ ment of His purpose, the God win. so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life; that there may be granted to us all such divine wisdom and understanding, such counsel and strength, that upholding that is right and allowing what is true, we may obey His holy will ana fulfill His divine purpose in all life and living.” VERSCHOYLE Misses Freda and Isabelle Sim­mons are visiting relatives in Wood-stock.
