Rennie, Liberal Candi­ date for Oxford Riding, Also Addressed Meeting. The March meeting of the Wom­ en’s Liberal Club of Ingersoll and district, was held on Wednesday afternoon in the Liberal rooms, with Mrs. C. R. Widdifleld, Stratford, pre­ sident of the Ontario Women’s Lib­ eral Association, and Mr. A. S. Ren­ nie as guest speaker*. The meeting was opened by the president, Mrs. J. A. Mackenzie of Beachville, with the singing of “0 Canada.” Mrs. Verne Meek, the secretary, then read the minutes of the last meeting, follow­ ing which Mrs. J. A. Mackenzie intro­ duced Mrs. Widdifleld, recalling as she did so, some of the benefits which have come to Canada as a result of Liberal administration: 1, Polish and courtesy, long lacking, introduced in­ to political life by Sir Wilfrid Laur­ ier; opening up of the Canadian West; Imperial preference tariff; British West India preferential tariff; penny postage under Sir William Mulock’s administration in Sir Wil­ frid Lamer's cabinet, brought the postal department out of debt and made it a source of profit to the country; during South African war, Laurier sent three divisions of volun­ teer troops, only after parliament, as representatives of the people had voted in favor of sending them; a sy­ stem of selective immigration by which we may refuse to admit people who by reason of health or mentality should not be brought into the country; beginning pf Canadian navy, operating under Canadian auth­ ority and co-operating with British navy; in 1897 Sir Wilfrid Laurier’s visit to England, at the lime of Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee, did much to cement friendship be­ tween Great Britain and Canada; in 1900 Sir Wm. Mulock and Mackenzie King founded department of labour in Dominion- Government; Macken­ zie King is the only political head in the world to-day who is at the head of his country’s government after 21 years of continuous service* and he has always had the approval of the British Government; Halibut Treaty signed only by Hon. Ernest Lapointe on behalf of Canada, and Chas. Evan Hughes, on behalf of United States, gave Canada the status of a nation; 1926 establishment of Canadian Le­ gation at Washington; women reco­ gnized by Privy Council as persona, when Carine Wilson was called to Red Chamber and appointed first wo­ man senate; some thirty trade pacts beneficial for Canada, have been signed during past five years, from just one of which Canada’s trade has increased in first 12 months by $48,000,000; their Majesties visit to Canada.last year brought about by the efforts of Mackenzie King, estab­ lished new friendships and strength­ ened old ones; the Empire Air Train­ ing Scheme and other war efforts. Mrs. C. R. Widdifleld in her ad­ dress, gave a review of the history of the Liberal Government, stressing the importance to the. Canadian con­ sumer of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. She compared benefits to the Canadian consumer from the working of this board, with the strain and stress occasioned in the last war because of the unnecessary rise in commodity prices-'due to hoarding and profiteering by some citizens, thus causing others to struggle for years to pay off debts caused by these high prices. To-day prices have in­ creased but 8%, barely enough to cover the increased cost in convoying the commodities. She also commended the Mackenzie King Government for increasing the scale of.allowances to soldiers’ de­ pendents. During the last war, the wives received an allowance, but the children were looked after by a char­ itable war organization. But since the present war began the Mackenzie King Government has increased the scale of allowance giving $35 per month to the wife and $12 per month for each child. Provision has also been made for the mothers. To date, 44,000 applications for allowances for soldiers’ dependents have been filed and 37,000 families, including 65,000 dependents are now receiving monthly cheques. Mr. Rennie spoke of the splendid leadership given by Mackenzie King during his 41 years as leader and of the qualities which fit him for this position of leadership: his wealth of experience, his steadiness, his stabil­ ity, his courtesy, his tactfulness and his sound judgment He stated that a country in which the majority of, people owned their own homes and took pride in them, was likely to be the happiest country and spoke a t considerable length upon the Boosing Act and the Home Improvements Act by -which the King Government has helped people to own their own homes. In Tfll*onburx and its neighborhood alone, $195,000 have been spent to equip and remodel homes. Mr. Rennie also commended the Mackenzie King Government upon its war record and upon the efficient manner in wtnch they transfetred the country from a peace-time to a war­ time basis with a minimum of distur- Isnce in everyday living. He stated that it would be folly to take the machinery of government out of the hands of the men who had fashioned it a d place -it in the hands of new and untried men. Let us return the present efficient and experienced government to power and bend all of - ui power to the successful prose­ cution of the war. A short but enjoyable musical programme was then offered with Miss Helen Furlong and Miss Grace Moyse contributing piano duets and Miss Patricia Nadalin giving violin solos. Miss Belle Rose, in a delightful and charming manner, offered a sin­ cere and very hearty vote of thanks to the guest speakers and the other assisting artists. A copy of the reso­ lution sent to Mackenzie King endor­ sing the war effort of his administra­ tion and assuring him of confidence in hi* government and his reply of appreciation, were read. The meeting closed with the singing of the Nation­ al Anthem. T SERVICES TO TROOPS PASS MILLION MARK MOSSLEY Edward A. Buchanan Taken By Death Death at an early hour on Thurs­ day morning last, removed a lifelong resident of Ingersoll, in the person of Edgar A. Buchanan. Deceased who was in his 70th year, was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Buchanan and was born and raised in Ingersoll. For many years he was employed in the former Evans Bros. Piano Factory and for a time worked with F P. Leake, before re­ tiring about ten years ago. He was unmarried. By his kindly and unas­ suming disposition he made for him­ self many friends. He was an adher­ ent of St, Paul’s Presbyterian Church and was most faithful in his attend­ ance at services. The deceased was a member of St. John’s Lodge, No. 68, A.F. & A.M., for many years and was also a member and Senior Woodward of Court Marquis-of Jubrne, No. 6157, Ancient Order of Foresters. Mr. Buchanan had enjoyed good health until the early part of this year. He was taken to Alexandra Hospital on January 15th and his death occurred there about 3 a.m., on March 14th. Surviving are two nephews, Lome Cook, Skye street, Ingersoll, and Le- Roy M. Cook of Moncton, New Bruns­ wick. The funeral was held from the new Fred S. Newman Funeral Home, comer King and Duke streets, on Saturday afternoon, under Masonic auspices. Service was conducted at 2 o’clock by Rev. Dr. H. H. Turner, minister of St Paul’s Presbyterian Church. There was a large attend­ ance at the funeral and the beautiful floral tributes testified to the esteem in which deceased was held. The Masonic service was in charge of Wor. Bro. James* W. Dean, Worship­ ful Master of St. John’s Lodge, No. 68, of which deceased was a member. Temporary entombment was made in the Ingersoll Mausoleum, the pall bearers being members of the Mas­ onic Order, Wor. Bro. Stanley Web­ ster, Bros. Arthur W. Huntley, Lloyd Sitter, Alfred Hillary, Ewart G. Wil­ son and W. W. Wilford. According to the report for the firat six months of war work with Canadian airmen, soldiers and sail­ ors, free services to Canada’s Rroop* have already exceeded the million mark in the "Y” buildings across Canada, in the numerous “Y” huts, centres and “corners” operated from Victoria to Halifax, and on transport ships and in training camps in Eng­ land. Of this impressive total, 918,- 177 recorded attendances have been made in the training centres in Can­ ada, with program including shower baths and swims, physical games and training, Sunday socials and teas, cheery fireside services, wholesome dance pronuns, educational classes, quiet periods of meditation in the good night services, chapels turned over to the Chaplains, and * hundred and one little personal services by secretaries and volunteer workers, both men and women. The men ex­ pect, accept, and use these facilities to the full, and the same high stand­ ard established by the “Y”, in its previous war experiences will again contribute towards the splendid morale so characteristic of Canadian troops. In the February report issued to John A. Tory, chairman of the National Y.M.C.A. War Services Committee, J. W. Beaton, Secretary for War-Services, indicates the open­ ing of new centres at Victoria, Rock- cliffe, Westmount, P. Q., and Three Rivers, with assignment of “Y” offi­ cers to R.C.A.F. centres at Camp Borden and Trenton, where commit­ tees of the Air Force are assisted in organizing and carrying on their own program. Chapels have been built at Barriefield and Montreal, and a new Red and Blue Triangle Hut operated jointly by the Y.M.C.A. and the Y. W.C.A., in St. John, N.B., has beenset up to provide a homy spot where women may meet their army folk. Since opening late in December, this unusual "Y” centre has served 4,628 women and 18,045 men. One of the last official acts of His Excellency the late Lord Tweedsmuir, was to open the Y.M.C.A. Hostel in Halifax, designed primarily to serve sailors, but open to all branches of the force. Attendances here to Febru­ ary 29th were recorded as 43,755. Accommodation for several hundred men is provided here, and a full in­ formation bureau for men on shore leave and for others, has been estab­ lished.

Residence, 5W — Member of —- The Canadian Weekly Newspapers’ Association THURSDAY, MARCH Jlat, 1940 “It All Depends" Haw you ever been astonished? Really astonished, I mean. So often wc use this word and that without paying particular attention to their real meanings. For inMance we sometimes call things “astonishing” just hveauae they happen to be a little outside of our customary orbit. This time, though, I use the word astonish advised­ ly. 1 wa* astonished the other day to hear a woman, whose opinions I have long valued, state quite earn­ estly that she thinks men are more patient than women. To be fair 1 should point out that this was not an unprovoked statement. It was an unexpected and really astonishing agreement with me. Until then 1 had not been sure, myself, that I really believed myself when I claimed that men are more patient than women. Now,1 astonished to And that she agrees with me, I’m sure I’m right—but a whole new avenue of speculation has opened up. It is only natural, having satisfied oneself upon one point of male supeQority, to be magnanimous in one’s own mind and look for some little thing in which the distaff side is superior. But this, I warn you, is dangerous, That is what I did. And I discovered—once again I was astonished —that instead of the “litfle things’’ I had complacently envisioned, the measure of women’s superiority is so groat as to be dazzling and so close as to be aston­ ishing when the discovery is made. Women are better organizers than men! Which means that they would probably run our businesses, public utilities, armies, navies, air-forces, and parliaments better than we do. Wait a minute! It all depends upon the kind of women you are talking about I mean housewives. Not clubwomen, not the few women members of parliament I have met; housewives! Your outstanding business man is no more capable of organizing his business as efficiently as a real housewife organizes her house than he would be of running the house itself. Unless of course, you let him clutter up his house the way he clutters up his pay-roll with a load of deadwood to sub-divide and resub-divide his organization until eventually he needs a special sub-divider or sub-dividers. (What business has only learned to do in recent years, years so recent that it still pats itself on the back for its astuteneM-y-the utilization of waste pro­ ducts—every housewife has been doing from time immemorial. Do you know any business man—I speak of big business—who, from year to year can lay his hands at the first smell of Spring, or Winter, or Summer, on the material or commodity that annu­ ally is required at that particular season? The answer is “no.” Of course the material will turn up because storemen and perpetual inventories will take care of it for him. But what housewife needs a perpetual inventory or has a stores department. Yet every housewife, quite undismayed, regularly produce ski-pants, socks, heavy underwear, bathing suits, shotls, skates, tennis rackets--a thousand and one things the minute they are sought. More than that, should there be a demand for a fancy dress costume for the skating carnival or high school dance, Mother knows just where the “remant of blue silk left from Barbara’s last year’s evening dress” or “that piece of taffeta from the dress I wore to the wedding in 1932” is and what to do with it. And in the commissariat department Mother can give your big business man "cards and spades” and still have a comfortable margin. For comparison let’s liken the serving of meals to the production of goods. At borne, if Uncle John, Aunt Mary and their two children drop in unexpectedly at supper time, what happens? Nothing, apparently! Four extra places are set at the table, sufficient food for eight magically appears when only four had been expected —and unfortunately, everyone takes this piece of super-organization for granted. Give a business man a sudden double-order and see what happens! The comparison is astonishing, isn’t it? —Selected. arom and the other (a the remarkable enterprise shown tn recent years by the manufacturers of these flour produet*.

R. JONES M.n.a.r lBV«r«oll Bruch Calves* Stomachs The ramifications of war are an interesting: study, apart from their seriousness. Here is. one which eeems strange until the reason behind it is known. Under the War Measures Act an Order-in-Council has been passed, at the instance of the Minister of Agriculture, to prohibit the export of the stomachs of calves. • / The reason for thiyis quite definite. Poland used to be a leading source of calves’ stomachs, and since the conquest of that ^country by Germany and Rus­ sia, the supply has beeh cut off to Canadian buyers, Rennet is manufactured from calve*’ stomachs and it is a coagulating agent used in the manufacture of cheese. The making of cheese is an important Canadian industry. As a consequence it is now necessary to conserve the Canadian supply of calves’ stomachs, in order to make rennet for our own'cheese makers. So the export of such stomachs is prohibited. A very interest­ ing lesson in Canadian national economy. -Our imports of rennet are over 100,000 pounds in a year, tfie principal supplier to Canada being Den­ mark. We get a comparatively small quantity from the United States. The annual meeting of the Women’s Auxiliary to the Alexandra Hospital Trust, was held at the home of Mrs. E. A.

Anderson Coulter; secre­ tary-treasurer, George Naylor. Members of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club, the Ingersoll Y’s Men’s Club and the Board of Directors of the Ingersoll Community “Y”, held a joint supper meeting on Wednesday evening last at the Ingersoll Inn. The guest speaker was R. 8. Hosk- ing, B.A., B.D., Toronto, general sec­ retary of the Y.M.C.A in Canada, who spoke on the subject, “Signifi­ cant Boys’ Work.” W. A. C. Forman, vice-president of the Kiwanis Club, and a member of the board of directors of the Com­ munity “Y”, occupied the chair for the opening part of the meeting. Later, Alex. Yule, President of the Kiwanis Club assumed the chairman­ ship of the meeting. Rev. Charles D. Daniel, a member of both the Kiwanis and Y’s Men's Clubs, introduced Mr. Hooking to the. gathering. He pointed out that the speaker had resigned his position as Judge of the Family Relations Court in Toronto, to assume his present duties and previously be had been assistant to Judge Mott, the Judge of the Toronto Juvenile Court. Mr. Hosking’s subject, "Significant Boys’ Work,” proved most interest­ ing to his audience. In opening his remarks, he stated, "It has been said that civilization moves forward on the feet of little children, but it was not until after 1910 that the public thought they believed this, and still there appear to be some who don’t believe it yet” He urged members of all service clubs not to neglect the children of their communities during the period of the war. He said, “They need your help now more than they did in time of peace.” "Let us remember that unless we maintain our churches, our homes, our schools, our children's work we will not maintain our morale and without that there can be no success,” he added. “War will be lost or won by th© citizens of our country as well as by the soldiers in the fighting lines. Keep this in mind, too, when you are inclined to grow a little im­ patient with the many additional taxes during the war years and with the calls for donations to different or­ ganizations and their work.” The speaker went on to say.that the problem of getting into trouble appears to be one for the boy, far more so than for the girl, illustrating this to the extent of using the figures 95% per cent, boys compared to four and one-half per cent, for girls out of some 70,000. This might be ac­ counted for in various ways, the speaker said, and one was that girls were more conservative than boys, the tatter having -a desire to be chal­ lenged by the unknown, which re­ sulted very often in getting them into trouble. Responsibility for this might rest with the parents, but it could not all rest with them, especial­ ly in cases where they were not qualified or fitted for such responsi­ bility and the speaker said it was not that service clubs and Y M. C. A. groups and boartjs were “busy-bod­ ies” but rather they were honestly trying to do good and help out where parental guidance was neglected. ’T want to make it clear,” contin­ ued Mr. Hosking, "that I do not be­ lieve the boys of today are any worse than the boys of yesterday. I have dealt personally with thousands, from coast to coast, in Y. M. C. 'A. work alone, and in many cases I find them a lot better t than the boys ofseveral years ago. ' When I think of the frustrations resulting from un­ employment and the tack of oppor­ tunity for marriage which the youth of today must necessarily undergo, I marvel that we havn’t more prob­ lems and more delinquents than wehave. I am humble, when I think* that I am not one of the group myself. I take off my hat to thia generation. They are having a tough time of it. L. R. LLOYD Wo^ttock BRANCHES THROUGHOUT CANADA Mr. Honking referred to the fact that the Y.M.C.A. was the oldest working agency in the Dominion of Canada for boys’ camps, the first one of which came into being about 1890. He urged that service clubs and youth training agencies endeavor to arouse the interest of the young folks in their training problems, and, not allow them to rule these pro­ grams entirely because of their lack of experience,.but to direct them as efforts eminating from the group it­ self was better than that which was merely placed in their hands without any effort. "Try to instil into the minds of these young folks who need the train­ ing of parents and leaders that if they need not be disciplined there must of necessity be pain. Do not allow them to get the idea that if they need discipline, it will be ac­ companied by a lot of fun and pleasure, and let us remember than underneath and above all, we do, in the Y.M.C.A. work, try to teach them some of the Christian things of life” -Y’s-, man Dr. J. W. Rowsom, ex­ pressed the thanks of the gathering to the speaker for his fine address. During the meeting, vocal numbers were contributed by the Y’s men’s quartette composed of Sidney Bag­ nall, Bert Bagnall, Jack Mayberry, and L. M. Sommer, with Ewart H. Bartley at the piano. Through the courtesy of Kiwanian C. H. Love, moving pictures were shown of the activities of boys and girls who were members of the classes sponsored by the Ki-Y Play­ grounds Committee. These included activities at the park, swimming, field day, summer sports and skating and hockey on the outdoor rinks at Mem­ orial School and Princess Elizabeth School this winter. The supervision of these activities, it was pointed out, has been carried out under the joint sponsorship of the Community “Y”, and the IngersAlL Ki wan is Club.

The name itself indicates that, as do the kindred products of vermicelli and spaghetti. We forgot what was due to sunny Italy, however, when we began to call one of these similar products noodles. Once upon a time Italy was the one and only pro­ ducer of macaroni and that deticinous dish, .associated particularly with Naples, made a strong appeal to the fastidious appetites of travellers who made their way into the Mediterranean and visited Italian ports. They ate it with relish. Some young Englishmen, after a trip to Italy in the 1700's were so enthusiastic over it that they formed a Macaroni Club, and no leas a person that Charles James Fox the great English Statesman, was one of its members. (But the glory of macaroni has largely departed from Italy; it is now made in many other countries. Canadian macaroni is notable. Owing largely to two things the Canadian product has captured leadership in the British market One of these is that Canadian hard wheat is the best for the manufacture of msc- "Don’t let the highways down!" is a slogan appear­ ing on the Canadian horizon, as the huge cost of the war suggests economy in ordinary peace time activi, ties. In the forefront with those who see that tourist traffic from the United States must be sought with renewed vigor, in these days when tourist rev­ enue is so badly needed to offset that war cost, is Hon. T. B. McQuesten, Ontario Minister of Highways. Addressing members of the Ontario Motor League last week, he tasked the League to prets upon the federal authorities the absolute need of moderate ex­ penditures on highway development for the mainten­ ance of Canada's profitable tourist trade. The Minister said the roads must be kept in good shape and free from dust if the Dominion hoped to attract the cream of the tourist traffic from acrons the border. There has been a heavy increase in the number of marriages since the declaration of war, but as if to keep pace, the divorce toll has also been big. Accord­ ing to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, 2,022 div­ orces were granted ini939, as compared with 1,885 tn 1938 and 1,870 in 1937.SMALL LIFE SPAN OF AVERAGE CANADIAN Life span of the average Canadian lias been increased in the last 100 years from 30 to 60 years. Dr. Gor­ don Bates, General Director of the Health League of Canada, claimed in a recent address given in Toronto. He outlined a glowing future for preventive medicine. Although it is still a new field, men likt^-Pasteur and Lister made such strides in checking the spread of disease that the mortality rate has been greatly decreased, he said. The idea of prevention is coming to the fore as its possibilities are made known, Dr Bates declared. "It is becoming ^realized more and more than any incipient disease neglected may result in serious disease, and while the doctor formerly thought than when he treated disease after it occurred, his duty was ended, he is beginning to interpret hta duties in a new way.” The ancient Chinese paid their doc­ tors only when they were well, and Dr. Bates suggested that Canadians might well adopt the same principle. What would state medicine mean to citizens? Would there be too many doctors, and bow would they be paid J These are questions that are perplex­ ing the medical practice and the lay­ men today. But medical practice must change—illness is an expensive lux­ ury, costing Canada one billion dol­ lars annually. Dr. Bates suggested a reorganization along preventive lines, with health departments receiving more than their present grant of seven million annually. Canada’s present system of medi­ cal practice, he stated, follows the Robin Hood method, with the poor being given treatment by excellent physicians, only at the cost of their self-respect. The rich pay well for good service, but the middle class are In the most unfortunate position of all, being expected to pay although they really,cannot afford to do so. In England thirty yean ago, medical care was made readily available to everyone through the institution of Health Insurance. Under this system a large group of the population con- tributed to a general fund from which the doctor was paid a definite amount per patient per year, whether his patient was well or sick. There are not too many physicians in Canada, declared Dr. Bates. Ac­ cording to the findings of the Can­ adian National Committee for Men­ tal Hygiene, Canada needs 15,000 doctors, 5,000 more than the present number. Whatever trend medicine may take, the essential quality for greatness remains unchanged—a doc­ tor must still be prepared «x> give all that is in him toward the physical and mental betterment of his fellow men, Dr. Bates said. CANADA’S HEALTH SERVICES DURING WAR-TIME There must be no slackening of effort in Canada's health services during war-time if the Dominion is to make her best contribution to­ ward winning the war, warned Dr- Gordon Bates, General Director of the Health League of Canada, m a statement issued recently. He was commenting on a recent report of health conditions in Germany. Maintenance of the home front, keeping up all importan health servi­ ces, and raising the health standards of the Canadian people are essential factors in the winning of the war, Dr. Bates declared. He called attention to recent offi­ cial statistics concerning health con­ ditions in Germany, where, due to curtailment of health services and the exile of many leading doctors and health authorities, an astonishing de­ terioration of health is now evident. The statistics are published in a little book, "Heil Hunger”, written by Dr. Martin Gumpert, former head of the City Clinic for Skin and Venereal Diseases in Berlin, now a refugee in New York. "There are 700,000 German work­ ers constantly out of action because of sickness,*” Dr. Gumpert reports. "Eighty thousand more persons died annually in Hitler Germany than in pre-Hitler Germany. The proportion of young men fit for the army drop­ ped from 75 per cent in 1935 to 55 per cent in 1938. Reasons for the German debility are: tack of food, lack of rest, lack of medical care, spending money for munitions in­ stead of health services.” Number of mothers tyho died in childbirth jumped from 5,000 in 1933 to 8,000 in 1938 according to the report. Germany now has a million and a half cases of tuberculosis, more than one-fourth of them ad­ vanced cases. According to Nazi medical theory, best cure for the dis­ ease is "hard, compulsory labor.” Number of lunatics in German hos­ pitals rose from 185,000 in 1923 to 346,000 in 1936, the report shows. Confirmation of Germany's rapid de­ terioration in health was given re­ cently by Erica Mann, daughter of the author, Thomas Mann. Miss Mann said that diphtheria, infantile paralysis, scarlet fever and such diseases have increased rapidly in the years of Hitler’s regime. "Canada could quite easily make Germany's mistake and cut down its health services,” Dr. Bates point­ ed out. "Such a move would be fatal. It would do more than any­ thing I know to help lose the war. The health of a nation in peace-time is important, but in war-time it is doubly vital. Municipalities and pro­ vinces should be urged to make cer­ tain that there be no let-up in meas­ ures to improve health conditions in Canada. G-M Car Production Shown Unimpaired By War Order* Oihawa, March 14—The product­ ion of passenger and commercial vehicles by General.Motors of Canada is proceeding unimpaired by the ac­ ceptance of war orders, it is revealed in an official statement issued by Harry J. Carmichael, Vice-President and General Manager of the Com­ pany. "In the interests of accuracy,” said Mr. Carmichael, "and because of ill- founded reports which always circu­ late in war-time, it is advisable at the present time to emphasize that the production facilities of General Motors of Canada are more than ade­ quate to fill all orders for private and commercial motor vehicles, in addition to war orders which Gen­ eral Motors, in. common with targe industrial concerns, has received from the Dominion Government and other friendly Powers. “Contrary to reports which have even, in some instances, found their way into public print,” added Mr. Carmichael, “this Company is per­ fectly able to make its full contri­ bution to Canada’s war effort without altering its customary production schedules.” The TruS^ Company is never out of town - on, business or away for the Winter on holi­ day.

Doepite the inclement weather and slippery roads, there was a fair turn­ out at the public meeting in the Ing­ ersoll Town Hall, on Wednesday evenng, March 18th, when Canada’s Minister of Natonal Defence, Hon. Norman McLeod Rogers, epoke in the interests of A S. Renne, Tillsonburg, Liberal candidate for the riding of Oxford in the forthcoming Federal Election. Mr. C. H. Sumner, of Ingersoll, presided as chairman of the meeting. With him on the platform were the the candidate, A. S. Rennie and Mrs. Rennie, Tillsonburg; Mrs. J. A. Mackenzie, president of the Ingersoll District Women's Liberal Associa­ tion; Mias E. A. Seldon, Ingersoll; Mrs. C. R. Widdifield, Stratford, Pre­ sident of the Ontario Liberal Wom­ en’s Association; Ex-Mayor J. V. Bu­ chanan and John N. Fairbairn, Inger­ soll; Robert A. MacDougall, Wood- stock; Thomas Pratt, Platteville and Kenneth Marshall, Norwich, a form­ er Warden of Oxford County. Vocal numbers by Miss Margaret Copeland of Ingersoll, accompanied by Miss Mary Crowley, were splen­ didly received, a lovely bouquet was presented to Miss Copeland by Billy Warden, son of Mr and Mrs. A. Gor­ don Warden. Mrs. Widdifield was the first speaker of the evening. She was in­ ti educed by Mrs. J. A. Mackenzie. She u.gcd the return of the govern­ ment of Rt. Hon W. L. MackenzieKing and appealed to the‘electors of Ingersoll and Oxford County to get behind the Liberal candidate, Mr. Rennie. As a result of the war measuies of the King Government she ‘aid economic dislocation had been avoided and the consumer had been protected again a rise in prices, for the present at least. “If you wish your government to continue a maximum effort with a minimum of expense, vote Liberal and go for­ ward with Mackenzie King,” said the speaker, in concluding her remarks. Mrs. Widdifield was presented with a Jxiuquet of flowers by little Miss Iso- bel McKay, daughter eof Dr H. B. and Mrs. McKay, Ingersoll. The candidate, A. S. Rennie, who has represented the riding of South Oxford, and Oxford, in the House of Commons in the last two parliaments, briefly reviewed the achievements of the Mackenzie King Government, He mentioned the value of the Govern­ ment action in helping the individual home owner through the Home Im­ provements Act and the National Housing Act, which had also served j as a stimulus to business and indus- , try. He cited cases where he had , helped take men from . Oxford , County, who served in the last war, . to Westminster Hospital, London, for (treatment and mentioned the policies , that had been formulated by the De- partment of Pensions and National , Health, under Hon. Mr. Powers, to , help the soldiers of the last war who were now becoming partly disabled , and asked to have their cases con- , stdered for pensions. Mr. Rennie in- j troduced Hon. Normtn Rogers to the Audience. Mr. Sumner extended a welcome to Hon. Mr. Rogers, and as he rose to speak, Miss E. A. Seldon, on behalf of the Oxford Liberal Association, read an address complimenting him on the manner in .which he had filled the positon of Minister of National Defence. He was then presented with an Oxford made Stilton Cheese by Lome Murray, son of Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray and Mrs. Murray, Inger­ soll. , The Minister of National Defence, acknowledged the gift of the stilton cheese and said it was a pleasure to make his first public appearance in Oxford County to speak'*on behalf of Mr. A. S. Rennie, who had been his neighbor in the House of Commons. “Mr. Rennie has won his place in the House of Com­ mons by his character and by his quietecompetence. You know bow in­ dustrious he has been, and you will be doing Oxford and Canada a ser-‘ vice if you return him as your mem­ ber on March 26th,” said Hon. Mr. Rogers. The Minister of National Defence briefly reviewed Canada’s War effort and defended the actions of the King Government since Canada's entry in­ to the war on September 10th . He ,said that as early as August, 1939, a precautionary mobilization had been ordered, coastal defences had been manned and the ships of the Can­ adian Navy made ready for action. Canada had 45,000 men under arms when war was declared, he said, and the government announced at that time that it would not be content with just home defence but would come to the aid of Britain as was done twenty-five years ago.

He mentioned that Great Britain herself was not pre­ pared in the full meaning of the word, when she declared war against Germany. . “We organized a supply board, composed of non-partisan business men, to handle the purchasing of supplies.

Hon. Mr. Rogers appealed to the public to realize that this war differ­ ed vastly from any previous war in which Canada had been engaged. In­ formation had been forwarded from the Government of the United King­ dom he said, emphasising the fact that we should proceed steadily, slowly but surely, and that the war was not going to be won by emotional appeals. He warned his hearers about pay­ ing too much attention to catch phrases of the National Government, and added that he believed the kind of leadership that was needed at this time was the kind of leadership offer­ ed by Rt Hon.

The regular mooting of the Inger­ soll Board of Health was held on Fri­ day evening, with the chairman, By­ ron G. Jenvey presiding. Ail mem­ bers with the exeception of Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray were in attend­ ance Several matters were discussed, including the annual spring clean-up of the town and citizens are asked to give this matter their attention before May 1st, The securing of other quarters other than the council chamber for the holding of the regular weekly child welfare conferences was given some consideration. The Board will endeavor to see if more suitable ■luarters can be secured and their findings will be presented at the next regular meeting. The matter of providing public dental services for the town was broached, but in as much as this is now being handled to some extent through the efforts of the Kiwanis Club, in cooperation with the Public Health nurse and the local dentists, the matter was not discussed to any extent. The report of Sanitary Inspector John Wilford, dealt with a number of complaints investigated and his recent inspection of all dairies and restaurants. These were reported in good order. The milk tests as made by the government laboratory, were most satisfactory as regards butter fat content, cleanliness and perfect pasteurization. Mr. Wilford’s report was adopted on motion of P. T. Fleischer and James N. Henderson. A number of accounts for the Public Health Nurse department were ordered paid on motion of James N. Henderson and Dr. H. G. Furlong, M.O.H., while accounts of the Board of Health were ordered paid on motion of P. T. Fleischer and Janies N. Henderson. Miss J. Marion McNaughton, Pub­ lic Health Nurse, presented her re­ port for the period of January 1st to March 13th, as follows: "During this period there has been an epidemic of chickenpox, with cases in all tfiie schools including the collegiate. At present there are 13 cases isolated in their homes. "Five classes in home nursing were completed. Fifty-three received .certificates for attendance al 75 per cent, of the meetings.

The report of Miss McNaughtori* was adopted on motion of J. N. Hen- erson and P. T. Fleischer. Mrs. R. E, Adamson, Hostess To Group 1, Trinity W. A. The regular meeting of Group No. 1, of the W. A. of Trinity United Church, was held on Thursday after­ noon at the home of Mra. R. E. Ad­ amson, King street east. The meeting opened with a hymn and prayer by Rev. R. A. Fancy, followed by a Bible reading by Mrs. B. L. ScoU. Mrs. H. F. Harris and Mrs. Jan Tat­ tersail contributed a pleasing vocal duet, accompanied by Mrs. D. A. Bonesteel. A most interesting ad­ dress was given by Rev. F. A. Facey, Which was thoroughly enjoyed. A humoroua reading was given by Mra. aid Underwood. The meeting was closed with the Mizpah Benediction, after which de­ licious refreshments were served by the hostess assisted by Ml*.

Soils which are strongly acid are likely to be lacking in lime for the best growth of certain erope. On the other hand, a alight degree of acidity ie favorable for certain farm and garden crops such as oate, rye, turnips, potatoes, tobacco, beans onions, sweet corn and strawberries. Other crops such o wheat, barley, tomatoes, soybeans, mangels, and corn, thrive best when the reaction is nearer neutral. Still, other crops prefer slightly alkaline reaction of soil-alfalfa, clovers and asparagus. If the soil is nearly neutral or alka­ line in reaction, it is likely to have an abundance of lime for most crops. Soil acidity tends to tie-up avail­ able phosphates in forms that are not available to growing crops, hence it is of great importance that soil re­ action favorable to the growing crop should be maintained if fertilizers are to render maximum help. While the presence of sheep sorrel on the land and repeated failures to get catches of alfalfa or cloven may be taken as evidence of lime-defleien- (ATFLLI SPJ j HEW CATELLIC____L_++; cy, the safest procedure to determfaa whether or not land requires lime ie to have the roil tested. Applying lime where it is not need­ ed is a wasteful practice and may ac­ tually harm the soil and crops.

There is only one decision to be made by the Canadian people on March 26th • • . It is this: to unknown, unnamed politicians ... to a make­ shift cabinet with Dr. Manion as the self-appointed leader? Or ... Shall our country’s war effort/be continued vigorously and faithfully by tne known and proven administration of Mackenzie King? . That is the question YOU m£st answer. Up a Blind AlleyVor-6ut in the Open! It is time for plain speaking, pr. Manion’s pretence of offering "national” government is sheer poet­ ical deceit. Because: even if be u«re elected to office, Dr. Manion could not organize or lead a truly national gqr- emment. The parliamentary groufe which might follow him would fail to represent all Canada. It would notrepresent the’ people of the national- Liberal party. - It would not represent the people k^f die C.C.F. party. It would not represent the people of the historic Conservative party which Dr.Manion has now scuttled. Do not be deceived 1 Dr. Manion cannot give you National Government. The best he might give you would be government by unknown followers. He invites you to follow him up a Mind alley—to vote for a government erf his own imagination—answerableto some undisclosed political group. £nzie King offers you something y in the open... the most truly al government Canada has ever known. His parliamentary followers represent the people of every province m Canada — every section of our country—every economic, social and racial group. There is not an area of ' this country... not a single classification '■ of our people...without proper repre- ' sentation in the Mackenzie King following. Mackenzie King’s cabinet ministers are well known to you. They are broadly experienced men, eager and able to continue the sort of admin­ istration which brought progress to Canada in times of peace and national pride to Canadians since the outbreak of war. The Mackenzie King administration is answerable to the people of Canada The Responsibility is Now Yours Canada is facing the greatest crisis in ker history. It is YOUR responsibility to say how she is to deal withthis crisis. Therefore: when you go to the polk on March 26th you should cowdder only what is best for Canada—what is best for the Empire and our allies —what is the sure, direct road to Victory and Peace.

Through the years the Implement maker has, with quality of product and genuinely helpful service, won the high regard and goodwill of the users of his product.There are few /tinners who do not value sincerely the service of the implement company. Lack of understanding of some of the problems of the industry may give rise on -occasion to criticisms that seek to detract from or disparage the part that the implement Maker plays. In the light of the facts, however, misunderstandings' vanish ana a better appreciation results. \ Formers* Equipment Investment Greatly Reduced *|ost of the discussions on prices of implements, compar­ ing them with those of years ago, for instance, fail to fcqe cognizance of the improvement In methods that have taken place, resulting in the use of different machines from those of a quarter-of-a-century ago. The One-Way Disc Seeder has displaced, to a serious exteat, so far as the manufacturer is concerned, several otherijnachines, and it does so because It cuts the cost of tillage and seeding by from 40% to 50%. The small combine has spread the use of this method of harvesting until the sale of them now almost equals that of tenders.
