On Tuesday evening, Ingersoll music-lover* had the wonderful priv­ ilege of hearing the Canadian Choir of Brantford, under the direction of Frederick Lord, famous as a con­ ductor of choral presentations. Since its inception, this choir has had a tri­ umphant aeries of successes, and has no superior on this continent. Dr. Cecil Osborn, president of the local Red Cross Society, introduced Mr. Lord and his singers to the large audience which assembled to hear them. From the rise of the curtain everyone in the auditorium eqjoyed to the fullest the very fine program, A. S. Rennie, M.P. Y’a Men’s Speaker The Ingersoll Y’s Men’s Club were privileged to have as guest speaker at their regular meeting, Wednes­ day evening last, at the Ingersoll Inn, Mr. A. S. Rennie of Tilteonbwrg. who was recently re-elected us Men - ber of Parliament for the riding of Oxford. The meeting was presided over by Robert Wark, vice-president of the Club, and was well attended. Y’s Man Bert Car introduced Mr. Rennie to the gathering. The speaker gave a very entertaining talk. He explained that he returned from Ottawa only that afternoon and that there was great activity in Canada's capital city due to war time measures. He touched upon in its varied numbers. Outstanding was the work of the accompanist, Miss Alice Monture, at the piano. She was superb, and had she played a solo the program in its entirety would have left nothing to be desired. The interpretative ability of the singers was perfect and they ob­ served the most minute details in their execution. The Part-Song, “I Love Thee,” by Greig, sung by the ladies, was exquisitely done. The solo of Mr. Burwell Evans, “A Spirit Flower”, was also very fine. His voice, tenor, is one of remarkable purity. In responding to an encore, sang the beautiful “1 Love Life.” Messrs. W. Acland and Frederick Lewis in their duet, “The Two Beg­ gars,” by Lane Wilson, earned a merited encore, and responded with “Two Fools.” The very lovely “Venetian Gondola Song,” by Lucantoni, was sung by Miss Norma Papple and Hugh Mar­ tin. They received unstinted applause and as an encore sang Victor Her­ bert's beautiful “Thine Alone.” A pleasing variatidh were the violin numbers of Mrs. Lord. The work of the choir in their part songs, displayed to advantage the excellence of the organization and the skill of the director in obtaining pleasing and beautiful tonal effects. The local Red Cross Society were instrumental in bringing the choir to Ingersoll. During the war this organ­ ization are giving their services free for patriotic purposes. A box of beautiful flowers was presented to Mrs. Lord.

R. VEALSProprietor ana EditorPHONES;—Tribune Office, IS - Residence, 5M — Member of — The Canadian Weekly Newspaper*’ Awwciation THURSDAY, MAY 2nd, IMO Canada’* New War-Time Parliament Caned*** new war-time parliament, fresh from the people, is to meet on May 16 for its first session. It is refreshing to realize that after all, we still have a parliament and that those who have charges to make or investigations to demand against doing* or mis­ doings of the goverment in regard to war, still have the fullest opportunity. Whether the official Opposi­ tion or the other oppositions will now endeavor to establish their pre-election allegation* or whether they will regard the verdict of the people as- washing everything up and start anew, remains to be seen. But whatever turn the Opposition takes, it is fairly certain that there will be at least four major subjects before the House, the investigation of war contracts; Aberhart’s application for a bank charter; the new war budget presented by Finance Minister Ralston and the problem of heavier taxation; and a review by Parliament of the Defense of Canada Regulations under the War Measures Act. As a change from a war subject, the application «f Premier Aberhart for a bank charter will likely prove to be one of the most interesting events of the session. Frustrated at every turn by the courts of Canada and the Privy Council in his attempt to set up a new system of trading and credit, Aberhart is reported to be seeking the establishment of a provin­ cial bank to accomplish what he couldn’t do legally under the constitution. It has been boasted in Alber­ ta that through first hi* “treasury branches’’ and then his marketing boards, and now his bank, he is trying to do mechanically what he cannot do by legislation. There will be some who will say that so long as Alberta is not asking—or is not given—a charter which differs from all othera granted under the Bank Act, there’s nothing the matter with him getting a charter. That looks plausible on its face, but there are other considerations which will arire at Ottawa. Before Aberhart sought a bank charter, he tried to drive the federal system of banking out of Alberta by heavy taxation. His intention to put the banks out of Adberta was clearly understood and his at­ tempted $2,000,000 a year tax was evidence of it. The Supreme Court threw out the legislation and the Privy Council sustained the Supreme Court. The Alberta premier was shown to have invaded the field reserved by the federal authorities by the Briti ti North American Act. Now if Mr. Aberhart gets a bank charter even if it is in the same form as the Bank Act prescribes for the other banks—there will undoubtedly be a feeling if he is not tied down beforehand by a hard and fast prohibition, he will tax the chartered banks and leave his own banks untaxed—thus putting his own bank in a preferred position and the other banks under a handicap in doing business. Thus if Alberta people trust him, he may achieve indirectly exactly what the Supreme Court and the Privy Coun­ cil stopped him from doing. Of course, what he wants, as indicated in the Alberta Banking Powers Act passed at his last session, is a different kind of charter. He wants his own ministers to be directors of the Alberta Bank. Direct­ ors must be shareholders under the Dominion Bank Act Moreover, they must hold their chares in their own right and not as trustees for somebody else. Thia provision was included in the Bank Act to keep banking out of the hands of fly-by-night promoters. And there are bound to be some at Ottawa who ■will point back to the fact that Aberhart once entered into an agreement with a promotor—J. J. Sousa— to turn the charter over to him in the event that his government did not feel like operating the bank itself. Another factor that will enter into the discussions at Ottawa is tihe point that banks and bank directors can be sued; all their directors can be sued and all assets held in case of trouble. But if the government is the bank,'it cannot be sued except by its own con­ sent. Moreover, Mr. Aberhart’s government is a defaulter, and giving a bank charter to a defaulter would be something new in Canadian practice. What Parliament will do for Mr. Aberhart remains a matter of conjecture us yet, but eventual action is bound to be influenced by tb# waning popularity of Mr. Aberhart among his own/people. While the recent election left him with a majority of 17, in 11 of these seats, an additional thousand votes or so for the Independent's would have put the Aberhart gov­ ernment out There is also an indication in the Al­ berta prera that in these circumstances Mr. Aberhart is going to be a bit circumspect about "sticking out his neck too freely.” thereby conserve foreign exchange.“Some of the above rewmns apply to the immediatepresent and otheis to ths future, but it can be stateddefinitely that no in-ticatton haa yet been tfven thatBritain will at any time require greater quantities of bacon from Canada than are provided for in the present contract. ' “What this means to the Canadian producer of hogs and bacon may be estimated only after examining the Canadian situation. The present contract of 5,600,000 pounds of bacon and ham weekly uses the product of about 48,000 Canadian hogs. The Can­ adian domestic trade consume* the product of about 40,000 hogs weekly. On the average therefore, Can­ adian packers can sell the product of leas than 90,000 hops each week. From November 4 to April 4 weekly marketings of hogs in Canada averaged more than 96,000. During this period there has been accumulated in storage the product of about 280,000 hogs. Accordfbg to present estimates thia amount is sufficient to make up any possible deficiency of ex­ ports which may result from short hog marketings during the summer months. With current marketings exceeding the amount required for export and dom­ estic use, it is apparent that greater quantities of pork products will be offered for sale in the domestic market. The pressure of increased supplies on the domestic market will in all probability result in lower prices for the products. Experience indicates that lower prices will increase consumption, consequently it may be possible to market the whole Canadian production. If prices to Canadian consumers decline, there will be some decline in hog prices. What that decline may be cannot be forecast until experience demonstrates what reduction in price will put into -consumption the additional quantity necessary to clear our markets. x"With regard to the more distant future, there seems to be no possibility of making any definite prediction at the present time. It may be assumed that if the war continues for a long period Britain will call upon Canada for greater supplies of bacon and many other food products. However, since the duration and course of the war cannot be predicted, it is equally impossible to predict when an increased demand for bacon may come from the British Gov­ ernment.” LOOKING BACK 23 YEARS From the Files of The Oxford Tribune,' Ingersoll, Canada, Thursday, May 3rd, 1917 Mrs. Vernon Meek received Friday afternoon for the first time since her marriage.

NEW SERVICEFROM OTTAWA Bacon Board Issues Statement on Situation Re Export of Bacon The following statement on the Bacon Export Sit- a nation was issued by the Bacon Board on April 17th: "Great Britain will not require any early addition­ al shipments of bacon from Canada to replace supplies which'have been ent off by the German invasion of Denmark. This fact hre been made clear and definite by an exchange of cables between Canada and Brit­ ain within , the part week. It comes as a surprise to many Canadians who had assumed without question that there would be an immediate call for increased bacon exports from Canada. "The reason* for this situation are as follows: first, excessive amounts of bacon in storage in Great Britaip and with the approach of summer weather British authorities regard it as imperative to use up stored produces before authorising increased imports. Second, production of bacon in Great Britain and Ireland continue* at higher than expected level*. Third, problems of shipping continue to present dif­ ficulties. Bacon must be handled in refrigerated space. Ships so equipped ore nrtjwnierou, and in view of their speed and construction are often’required for other purposes. Finally, ft Is the apparent intention of the British authorities to restore bacon rationing at an early date and thereby restrict consumption. One purposr at the rationing undoubtedly is to re­ quire British civilian* to eat home produced food and Mrs. M. Barrow has received the sad new* of the death of her son, Pte. Archie Barrow, who was killed in action on April 9th. This is the first death in B Company of the 168th from IngeraolL Robert Richardson who for some time has been driver of the firt brigade, has resigned. Mr. Charles Foster has been appointed as driver and commenced his duties Tuesday, May 1st, 1917. Mr. and Mrs. Alex. H. Edmonds and son Alex., of Strathroy, spent Sunday.and Monday the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Edmonds, Holcroft street.

Mis* Nora Nagle of Salford, creditably completed the second course in the Ingersoll Business College. Miss Pera Horsman has returned after visiting friends in S t Thomas. Mia* Louise- O’Dell of London, is visiting her par­ ents here. Mrs. J. Tall ant was visiting friends in Woodstock on Friday. Miss Monica Harris is visiting in Toronto. CANADA’S WAR ECONOMY Canada entero the seventh month of war well equipped to rtand the economic strain. In the coming fiscal yesr, it is expected that the war will cost Canada around >500,000,090. Heavy a* this burden will be, it amount* to only about 12 per cent of Canada’* national income, estimated at >4,100,000,000. Compare the figures for Great Britain and Germany. Britain's ,war expenditure now calls for about 29 per cent of the estimat­ ed national income. Which means that unless Germany can increase her national income (which is improbable), she cannot largely increase her war expenditure without making heavy inroads on a standard of living already below that of the Allied countries. Here are a few figures from the Dominion Bureau of Statistics to show how business conditions in Can­ ada are improving: For the first two months of 1940, index of physical volume of business showed, a gain of 20 per cent over the corresponding period of 1939. Index of mineral production rose 13 per cent. Index of operations in manufactur­ ing plants up 30 per cent Output of steel ingots up 97 per cent of automobiles nearly 22 per cent. Exports, exclusive of gold, rose 26 per cent. Imports gained 69 per cent Estimated number of wage-earners unemployed declined 21 per cent. W£R DOES NOT CAUSE MENTAL DISEASE Ottawa—The allegedly .widespread belief that mental diseases are a common hazard of war, specially for men in active service, is effectively refuted by Dr. J. P. S. Cathcart, Chief Neuropsychiatrist of the De­ partment of pensions and National Health and International authority on neuroses, in an article for the July issue of the "National Health Re­ view.” Dr. Cathcart charged this belief as unfounded and arising from ignor­ ance fostered by ill-advised propa­ ganda. The entinent authority quotes figures showing that in the last war, out of 619,000 enlisted in the Canad­ ian Army, there came to light during service of an average of two years or more, a total qf only 1,750 mental cases of all types, including defect­ ives. He states that, when this figure is compared with the admission inci­ dence of mental disease in a similar age group of the male population of Canada for a similar period of two years, it is proven that there was no increase urtder war conditions. Psychiatry has made great -strides since the last war, declared Dr. Cathcart, and had justified public in­ terest in it However no soldier need have his patriotism and enthus­ iasm dampened by fear of mental disease. This fear arises out of mis­ conceptions and faulty interpreta­ tions to the public of findings of psychiatrists in connection with armed conflicts. VETERAN RECALLS' MESSAGE SMUGGLED AS PRISONER, 1917 A recent prem report concerning invisible ink methods used by Ger­ man prisoners in Canadian Interment camps to smuggle out secret mes­ sages brought back memories of the, last war to W. 'Proctor, of Toronto. Proctor was a member of the Royal Scots Greys and the First Royal Dragoons in the last war. In . 1917 he was made prisoner by the Germans and interned at Hameln-on- Weser. During his interment he wrote his wife, at that time Miss Girven, his fiancee. Still plainly vis­ ible at the top of tihe first page of an otherwise innocent letter, which bears the approval stamp of the Ger­ man censor, is the cryptic message: "THINGS ARE ROTTEN HERE WE HAVE NO FOOD." Proctor had used milk as an invisible ink. Sub­ mitted to heat by his fiancee the message had been plainly revealed. This letter has been a prixe pos­ session of the Proctors ever since. He was prompted upon reading re­ ports of similar endeavors by present- day prisoners, to send it along to Lieuti-Coloned H, Stothem, Assist- ■nt Director of Interment Operations and Director* of the Prisoners of War information Bureau. DENMARK TRADE PROHIBITED Trading with Enemy Regulations apply to any are* which is occupied' by a Power with which Qtnada is at war. At the present time Denmark is in German occupation and commer­ cial, financial or other intercourse or dealings with persons or concerns in Denmark are prohibited. This dots not apply to Iceland or to the Good Seed PotatoesAre Still AvailableSeed potatoes which are not goodenough to qualify a* certified seed might be very dear, even a* a gift. When a potato grower figures fain labour coat* for planting, cultivating, ■praying and harvesting, and hl* out­ lay for fertilizer and spray materials, depreciation on machinery, market­ ing costa, and other item*, then it becomes very evident that success or failure of the whole season’* oper­ ation* may depend largely upon the quality of the seed he is planting, weather conditions during tfae grow­ ing period, and the marketing situa­ tion following harvest. The weather hazards he is aware of. He must, of course, take the weagier as it comes, but he can arrange hi* cultural prac­ tices for either wet or dry seasons or both. The decision he makes about seed, however, must rest with himself, and it is a most important decision to make, for it may mean not only the difference between a good yield and a poor yield, but may make all the difference in the world as to the disposition of the crop, due to quality or marketability. All good seed potato dealers now recommend only the planting of cer- | tified seed for the logical reason that they are convinced that certified seed is improved seed and more grow, ers are asking for it. The dealers like to have a constant and depend­ able supply of well graded, healthy vigorous seed potatoes for their trade and they know that certified seed has been selected, grown and rogued for diseases under supervis­ ion, and is inspected and passed up­ on by an unbiased third party of sound integrity who is just as an­ xious as the dealers are that the seed purchasers are fully satisfied. Furthermore, the field reports of the inspectors arc available, and can be relied upon, which is better, in their opinion, than having to depend upon the grower’s own interpretation of the quality of potatoes he may have for sale. Another important point is that the dealer know* that the table potatoes produced from certified seed are going to be more readily saleable at harvest, and that will aid his table stock business very mater­ ially.

New Invention Permit* Smaller Portable Radio* Is the day coming when a man can carry a radio set in his pocket? That time is still in the future but it is not a wild dream. Science has taken the first big step by inventing a new type of radio “B” battery much smaller than anything we have seen—a “B” battery with a service life as long as conventional batteries twice the size. The result is that Canadian radio manufacturers are- bringing out port­ able sets this Spring which are much lighter and smaller than the 1939 models. In all round cell batteries, engin­ eers state that about 40% of the space is non-productive of electrical energy. The battle In the laborator­ ies has been to invent a battery which has the minimum of waste space and the maximum of power. The problem has been solved by having flat cells instead of round or square cells of the can type and by wrapping each tiny cell in a thin rubber seal instead of the usual thick asphalt In these new, small batteries for portable seta, 95% of the volume is energy-producing. This theory of minimum size and maximum power opens up entirely new field* in radio. There ultra-small "B” batteries are being used in vacuum tube type hearing aids for deaf people—they bring appreciably nearer the day when radio set* of reasonable power will be no longer than a hook from your library.

McCorkell, D.S.O., Windsor, Lieu­ tenant-Governor of the Western Div­ ision of the Ontario-Quebec Maritime District of Kiwanis International on his official visit to the local club. Kiwanian Alox. Yule, president of the club, occupied the chair and Major McCorkell was introduced by Kiwanian F. Earl Johnston, a Past District Lieutenant-Governor of the Western Division. In opening his address, the speaker paid tribute to the work of the Ing­ ersoll Club and he congratulated the members on the spirit of co-operation they always had shown in all under­ takings for the benefit of the com­ munity. This was a good foundation and would always pay larger divi­ dend* in any future undertakings he declared. "Because I know in the Ingersoll Club you are practising the spirit of co-operation as shown on your re­ ports and your meeting here, I am giving you a Job much desired and Heeded at the present time. Many commentators, some speakers and paiticularly the citizens in the street are asking why military commanders and heads of governmental affairs are not doing this or doing that in con­ nection with the prosecution of the war. I well remember that this was was carried to such an extreme in an open, public manner during the last war, that officers driven by the ranks of the citizens at home in re­ gard to why things were not run differently, frequently acceeded to the demands and frequently found that frightful and costly mistakes were made. I ask you to remember that when you are talking about war and about things in connection with the handling of any phase of war ac­ tivities, you are not talking about bread and butter that you might buy by the pound, but of your sons, and brothers, your human flesh. "And so I am asking you, as a club, to carry the spirit of co-operation which exists in your club, out into* your community, and give your assistance to the task of helping to guide and control and put a stop to this sometimes extravagant talk and feverish desire on the part of many, citizens to have things run in the way they would wish them. In other words, I ask you to help control, by your advice and example, persons who do set out to interfere in things that are not their business. Do not forget that we are in the midst of a big struggle. We want the privileges we have enjoyed in the Dominion of Canada to continue. We want the happiness, peace and contentment to which we are accustomed in this country, to continue.

The Ontario Feed Board, through the Ontario Department of Agricul­ ture, has issued a 20 page handbook on "The Feeding and Management of Dairy Cattle,” that can be obtained free of charge by Ontario farmers from the Agricultural Representative in his county or by writing direct to the Statistics and Publications Branch, Ont. Dept, ofr'Agriculture, Toronto. It would also be advisable to ask for the large convenient placard on Dairy Cattle Rations, which can be hung in a convenient spot in the barn near the feed bin. This placard con­ tains suggested meal mixtures as well as rules and recommendations for dairy cows in milk. It is pointed out by the Hon. P. M. Dewan, Ont. Minister of Agri­ culture, that agricultural war-time efforts irt*Ontario are not confined to increased swine production, but in- . elude cheese and powdered milk, i To step-up production of these pro­ ducts, dairy cattle must be fed wisely! and the farmer must know feed vahies and their uses if he is to profit. The handbook on “Feeding and Management of Dairy Cattle”, is just off the press and contains valuable war-time feeding information for the farmer on every one of its pages, dealing as it does with the important fundamentals of feeding dairy cattle.

TRUCKS - SALES and SERVICE ThamM Street Ph»» 122 Ingnnnll Locals Truck Drivers Knights of Road ’(From Lindsay Post, April 12,1 1940)1 "The truck driver,” somebody in ’ Detroit so trutRTully says if you’re‘ Us, “is the knight of the highway." . Certainly he is! Anybody who drives 'automobiles very much, knows that The truck driver, as a rule, will not hog any more of the road than the dimensions of his vehicle require. Give him the hum and he commonly moves over to let you pass. If he sees that the passing is none too good, he will oven blink his lights by way of warning, the New York Sun declares. Also, as the correspondent from Detroit so truthfully says, if you're in trouble on the road the first per­ son who will stop and volunteer assistance is likely to be the driver of the truck. If you’re polite to him, and look appropriately inept and helpless, he may even offer to change a tire for you. In that case, it is well for the recipient of the favor to remember the old knightly motto, “Noblesse oblige.” The proper way of referring to -this precept is not by repeating it, but by forking over no* less than one buck, in the. coinage, or the paper money, of the republic. Not because the truck driver would- ask you for any such mercenary re­ turn, but simply for the sake of matching generosity with aprecia- tion. Time was when a lot of motorists didn’t think so highly of truck driv­ ers, but those days have gone. Truck drivers and those who employ them have learned that it is intelligent to be courteous to other users of the highway. Would that driverZ and operators of buses were equallyconsiderate! Nor is it alone in respect of his devoir on the road that your truck driver appears at his knightly best. He is also the flower—maybe a wild flower, but a flower none the less—of chivalry in respect of the homage due to Indies fair. Observe, the next time you pause for refresh­ ments at the sign <xf "Eata”, uponwhom the prettiest* waitress invari­ ably lavishes her warmest smiles. Not on yon varlet in snappy sport clothes, we warrant you, or even on yon servitor in the haughty livery affected by chauffeur^ of private i cars. The favored Sir Knight in that , rendevous will prove, nine times out t of ten, to be the truckiest looking | driver there. A pretty spring wedding was sol­ emnized at the Chudleigh House, corner of Dundas and Beverley streets, Toronto, on Sunday after­ noon, April 21st, at 3 o’clock, when Rev.

Tiny particlesof dust which can only be seenthrough a microscope are dangerous to health as they lodge in air cells of the lungs. In the Ford foundry at Windsor, Ontario, it might be ex­pected that men would have to work m a smoky, dusty atmosphere as they handle molten metals and work constantly with moulding sands.But like all Ford factories the inter­ior of the Windsor foundry is re­ markably clean, the air fresh and free of dangerous quantities of dustA $60,000 dust exhaust and venti­lation system is operated to suck up dust ay fast «□ it k liberated and 'usupply the foundry workers with30 000 cubic feet of fresh, washed air every minute. To make certainthat this dust control system oper­ates properly, an ingenious deviceis used which enables engineers toactually count the microscopic dust particles in the air. Samples aretaken at regular intervals rightwhere the men in the foundry work;thus the dust count is always kept well below the margin of safety. Above is an interior shotof thefoun- •dry, showing exhuu-t hoods andfresh air inlets near workers.

Uren was hostess forthe closing meeting of the SeniorMusic Club. Her aaatatanta ware Mrs. E. Deamuds, Mrs. A. O. Parker, Mias M. Hatty and Mtah H. Waring. Ths past season ha* been very auc- ceeafuL Tbe fine attendance at each meeting was a tribute to the pro­ gram committee, Mr*. W. J. Tune and Mrs. A. P. Deacon, for their abil­ ity to present original and well-plan­ ned program^ of exceptional merit and high educational value. The program for this meeting was a study of the opera, “Madame But­ terfly,” composed by Puccini. Many composers of Europe and America have tried to express in their writ­ ings the fascinating atmosphere of the East, but no Occidental can truly duplicate that ancient lure, he can only suggest it. Puccini made a spec­ ial study of genuine Japanese music, consulting Japanese authorities as to local color—thus the music of tMad- ame Butterfly” has stood for the music of the Orient to many people. It is colored by the elusive and picturesque idiom of Eastern music— as charming and exquisite as the delicate cameos of scenery, the Jap­ anese depict on porcelain and lacquer. The little heroine, Butterfly, is the personification of Japanese art, graceful, dainty and refined. Events leading to the production of “Madame Butterfly”, were related by Mrs. A. P. Deacon. The plot was built upon a story written by the late John Luther Long of Philadel­ phia, which was later dramatized by David Belasco. Puccini saw the stage production and realized its operatic possibilities. In 1902 he began work on the opera. After several perform­ ances in Europe it was given in the Metropolitan, New York, in 1906, and is now a part of the repertory of every Opera-house. With Mrs. V. Meek as narrator, and Mrs. A. P. Deacon as pianist, with vocal music interspersed, this tale of life in the Flowery Kingdom was unfolded. The story is quietly dramatic, simple and direct, its pathos tenderly echoed in the music. The opera is in three acts. In the first there is shown the wedding cele­ bration of Butterfly, a little Japanese girl, and an American Naval Officer, Lieutenant Pinkerton. The music in this act is genuinely Japanese, its melodies are characterized by the simplicity of age, without harmony and little embellishment, Mrs. A. Seldon sang “Love and Fancy,” Pink­ erton’s song. Pinkerton has only a passing fascination for this little girl who is “like a garland of fresh flowers,” but Butterfly is deeply in love with her American husband. The second act displays the loyal faith of Madame Butterfly as she awaits the return of Pinkerton from America. Three years have passed and she has had no word from her husband. While others doubt, Butter­ fly sings of the fine day when the great ship shall be seen upon the horizon and her lover will return to her and their little son, Trouble. The well-known aria, “One Fine Day," was sung by Mrs. W. J. Tune. In this act the music reaches its greatest height, reflecting the poetic imagery of the mind of Butterfly. At last, the “Abra­ ham Lincoln,” Pinkerton’s ship, comes in to the harbour. Madame Butter­ fly prepares to greet her lord by dec­ orating the room with blossoms. The country is radiant with azalias, lilies, camellias, peonies, wistaria, chrys­ anthemum and everywhere is the cherry blossom. , Butterfly excitedly calls her maid, Susuki to help her* pick flowers and more flowers. “Flower Duet”, was sung by Mrs. P. T. Walker and Mrs. H. F. Uren. The second act closes on a note of happy expectancy. The third act is filled with tragedy. Pinkerton’s American wife is with ,hini and Butterfly now realizes she is (ieserted. The exotic beauty of Ori- 'ental melody is gone and a slow- treading sombre theme is played de­ picting the remorse of Pinkerton, the futile sympathy of his wife, the utter despair and anguish of Butterfly.

There is a moment of silence, Butterflies dies by her own hand, knowing her child will be cared for by Pinkerton. In the last few bars, the Japanese atmosphere is again established by expressive unison chords. The melody is a reminiscence of Butterfly’s ec­ static visions of the Emperor making a prince of her child. Puccini in this way seems to say that the dream will come true but to make the elevation possible poor little Butterfly mu«t die. Puccini 1858-1924 was unquestion­ ably the foremost composer of the early twentieth century, outranking all his contemporaries in inventive­ ness dramatic feeling and technique. Potato Diseases Can Be Abolished Potato growers who may have found some Bacterial Ring Rot in their crops last year should not be discouraged with the thought that the disease is on the farm to stay, for, with little more than ordinary care a complete clean-up can be made and produce crops made com­ pletely free of the trouble in future. The best procedure is to dispose completely of all the potatoes on the place, then spray with bluestone at the rate of one pound to ten gal­ lons of water storage and barrels in which the potatoes have been in con­ tact.' Next, thoroughly disinfect the potato machinery, sacks, and other containers with a strong formalin solution. This should be done before any new seed is brought to the farm. Once the clean-up has been completed, special care should be taken not to reintroduce tbe disease. This .involves special care to ensure that the seed originates from a'pro­ perty free of the disease. Obviously the best seed for the table stock grower is certified seed, but for the seed grower the founda­ tion certified seed is to be preferred. No potatoes in which even n trace of Bacterial Ring Rot is found are cer­ tified. The Plant Protection Division, Dominion Department of Agricul­ ture standards for seed potato cer­ tification definitely reject for seed purposes all potatoes in which any trace of the disease is found, either in the field or in the crop. There is still a fair supply of certified seed available but it is mttfing fast and supplies should be reserved without delay. Certified seed may be obtained from all seed houses and see potato dealers, or from the growers direct. The plant protection Division, Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, will gladly send any further information in this re­ gard on request A small crowd had collected to sec the departure of the bride and bride­ groom, When an old villager, passing along the road, met a friend and asked him: “What’s goin* on ’ere, Joe?” By way of reply, he received this bit of philosophy: “It’s a man givin’ away 'alf his dinner to get the other 'alf cooked!” •S&F F U R S IN ARCTIC VAU^aPff^ COLP STORAGE WM. 1LLBURY Spring Tips For Motorists 1. This is the season when the motorist changes from light oil and grease to the heavier grades for warm weather driving. It is obvi­ ous necessity to all experienced oper­ ators of motor vehicles. 2. To prevent over heating of the motor,’ you car's cooling system needs attention. Drain your anti­ freeze, have your garageman pour a can of rust and corrosion preven­ tive into the radiator, when it is filled with fresh water. (Now is the time to rust-proof radiators for summer driving. Your garageman can add this preventive in two minutes time at small cost*"L The car battery should be re­ charged or changed. Winter driving is hard on batteries.' The new high- power horns, double tail lights, and the various electrical units on the dashboard all act as drains on ' the battery. 4. Night driving • is responsible for about 60% of fatal accidents involving motor vehicles. With in­ creased night traffic on the high­ ways now starting it is important that your headlights (are checked for correct focussing, and that the re­ flectors are cleaned. Worn-out or dim headlight bulbs should be re­ placed with the new ones of Can­ adian manufacture. . 5. Make sure the windshield wiper is operating properly. 6. Make bore you hav$ a good flashlight in your car, equipped with fresh dated batteries. It is handy for changing tire* at night, roadride repairs in the dark, etc. 7. Check th* brakes. Even with good brakes, a car travelling at 40 miles per hour cannot be stopped In less than 115 feet. To ensure proper cheek you should have your garage­ man “Poll the wheels.” 8. To guard against the hazard of blow-outs, every tire Should be taken off and carefully .inspected.

Few outside the British Isles rea­ lize the great part Northern Ireland is playing in Britain’s wartime in­ dustry, including the production of “peaceful” goods for export all over the world. The famous Irish linen industry, for example, is now manu­ facturing solely for overseas cus­ tomers. Mention of shipbuilding is usually associated with thought s of Tyne­ side, Merseyside and Clydeside, (which produced the “Queen Mary”) yet much of Britain’s mercantile prestige was bom on an Irish mud­ bank, in Belfast Lough. Ships have been built at Belfast since 1636, and the world’s greatest yard is now Harland and Wolffs, at Queens Island. The word “island” was used because the earliest ship­ yards were little more than a water­ bound patch of mud. After 200 years of minor developments, Edward James Harland, a very determined Briton, arrived in 1858 and began large-scale expansion works. Har­ land's difficulties in reclaiming land and carving a harbour and extended shipyards from the mudbanks were so great that he was advised to give it up. “I have mounted a restive horse and I will ride it into the stable,” was his reply, and his faith in hinr- self and in the inherited skill of the Ulstermen working under him was justified. Although passenger and merchant shipping is Belfast’s spec­ iality, it has also turned its hands to work successfully for the Admiralty, whose confidence it enjoys to-day. * They’re So ConvenientSALADA’*TBJ? BAGS 'If boat “Awarua” from England on its 14,000 miles journey to New Zealand. Her voyage marks the real begin­ ning of a direct air mail service be­ tween Britain and New Zealand. This aircraft and a sister ship are the two flying boats which will be used for the flight across the Tasman Sea, forming a complete service be­ tween Britain and the Empire coun­ tries as soon as the weather permits the resumption of the Britain to Newfoundland passage. Foreign routes are also about to be extended. The service between Britain and Lisborn (Portugal) is ready to operate within three weeks of receiving the written permission of the Spanish Government, and additional services to the Balkans are also contemplated. St. James* Guild Held Business Meeting A business meeting of the Wom­ en's Guild of St. James* Anglican Church was held in the assembly room of the parish hall on Thursday afternoon, with the president, Mrs, C. W. Riley conducting the devotion­ al exercises and presiding for the business session. After the various reports were presented, a consider­ able amount of business was taken care of and plans were made to hold a cooking sale and rummage sale ia May. Refreshments were served by Mrs. P. T. Fleiscner and a social time was enjoyed at the close of the business. IN S U R A N C E Protect Yourself Adequately with BRITAIN CELEBRATES FIRST POSTAGE STAMP With Export of 40,000,000 To World's Collectors A new issue of postage stamps on May 6 is expected to bring to Brit­ ain about £250,000 worth of foreign currency. Collectors all over the world are creating an export demand for sets of these stamps, to be issued by the Post Office to commemorate the centenary of the famous Penny Black, which gave Britain the dis­ tinction of producing -in 1840 the world’s first adhesive postage stamp. "It will be an event of commercial aS well as historic importance, and 1 will probably rarfk as the most sought after issue ever presented”, said a member of a London firm who are the biggest and oldest retail stamp deal­ ers in the world] "At a low estimate I expect that 8,000,000 sets will be bought by collectors overseas. This represents 40,000,000 little bits of paper with face values ranging from one halfpenny to twopence half­ penny. And of the £250,000 worth which will go abroad I expect more than £50,000 worth will be bought by Americans, for there are probably over 9,000,000 collectors in the U. S.A.” The design and size of the new stamps are being kept secret, but it is thought that Britain will this time depart from traditional types and produce something more picturesque. London is the social, as well as the commercial, centre of the stamp world and the Royal Philatelic Society. , is arranging a special centenary eZ hibition. The King a keen collector, is among those loaning valuable specimens. Sir John Wilson, the So­ ciety's president, is also Keeper of King’s collection. The original die and proofs of the Penny Black will be on view. By midsummer four hundred tons of coal an hour will be coming up from a new colliery about to be opened at Comrie in Fifeshirc, to meet the overseas demand for Brit­ ish coal. Borings were begun by the Fife Coal Company seven years ago in a virgin area and the new pit is ex­ pected to be the biggest in the Brit­ ish Isles. It is the most up-to-date colliery anywhere. Instead of bringing the coal up in tubs, it will be loaded into a special cage at the pit bottom and wound up one shaft. Below the surface, the mine cars will be hauled by Diesel locomotives, and by combining the cutting and loading operations into one shift, it is hoped to reduce the number of shifts from three to two a day, which will be safer for the men and cheaper for the owners. At the pit-head, they are now put­ ting up baths, a canteen, a first aid room, lockers and a park for the men’s bicycles. Mr. and Mrs. H. Cummings Presented With Gift Neighbors and friends gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Cummings, Victoria street, and pre­ sented them with a beautiful silver flower basket filled with cyt flowers, prior to their departure from Inger­ soll. Mr. and Mrs. Cummings have been esteemed residents of Ingersoll for quite a number of years and are leaving this week to make their home in London. They have many friends here who will learn with regret of their removal from town and will wi’h them much happiness in their new home. WORLD’S LONGEST AIR ROUTE Britain To Operate Record Service of 17,853 Miles The longest commercial air service in the world, a continuous route of 17,853 miles, will be operated by British organizations by the end of May, directly the Newfoundland base is free from ice and able to accept the North Atlantic air link. Meanwhile Britain’s great war­ plane industry is to be made ready to be turned over to civil aviation as soon as peace comes. Firms produc­ ing large military typed. of aircraft have been instructed to keep con­ stantly in mind the possibility of civil variants and the Air Minister proposed to set up a strong' civil aviation advisory committee to plan for the future while Britain is still Empire air services are carrying on without interruption by the war and have now come under the uni-< fled control of the newly established British Airways Corporation.
