.The regular meeting of the Big
Eight Stx iPty was well attended. Pre
sident S. A Gibbon occupied the
chair and Mr. C H. Sumner, president
of the 3 .-<W Club who supervised the
collection in Ingersoll of money for
all war charities during the last
Great War, outlined the methods
followed at that time. Mr. Sumner
described the work done by the 3000
Club and pointed out that only one
appeal was made each year and
everyone in town was canvassed.
Pledges m money were made and
this was paid at regular weekly or
monthly periods. From this method
about $25,000 was raised each year
*and was paid to the various organis
ations on a proportionate plan, that
looked after all war service chari
ties. By this means the public were
not troubled with canvassers visiting
their homes every few weeks.

mer, secretary of the Ingeroll Com
munity “Y” and Rev. C. D. Daniel ad

requesting the Mayor to call a gener-
al meeting of all citizens at a later
date to try and set up some kind of
an organization that would handle

An illustrated address on the people
and life in general at Fort Simp
son, N.W.T.. wit given at a meet
ing of the Men's Club of St, James’
Anglican Church, last Thursday
evening, by Rev. Harry G. Cook,
who for some years has been station
ed there, and is now vacationing
at the home of his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. H. G. Cook, Charles street east.
The address was illustrated with
slides and proved not only highly
informative, but intensely interest
ing to the large gathering.
The meeting was opened by com
munity singing led by William Slater.
William Freemantle gave two hum
orous readings. Fred Harvey sang,
“The Road to Mandalay,” with Jack
Morgan providing the piano accom
paniment. Mr. Morgan also gave a
piano solo, “Manhattan Serenade.”
• Among the highlights of Rev. Mr.
Cook’s talk and illustrations were
those concerning the Anglican Mis
sion at Fort Simpson, the description
of natives of the area, and reference
to abnormal growth of vegetables.
A wedding in the north was also
shown as an interesting epic, also
the new hospital just completed at
Fort Norman. It had been erected in
memory of the late Bishop Bomp*s.
This was shown as a fine modem
building.
The speaker mentioned the high
cost of freighting, the distance being
so great as Fort Simpson is located
1200 miles north of Edmonton and
good sum had been realized from
4 them.
Cook’s Corner*’ L. S.
Held May Meeting
Mr. and Mrs, Ed. Barnett opened
their home on Thursday evening last
to the Cook’s Comers’ Literary So
ciety, Miss Helen- Stover presided.
The Maple Leaf Forever was sung.
The secretary’s and treasurer's re
ports were adopted, The motto,
“Pride goeth before a fall," was
veyy ably taken by Miss Ruth Tur
ner. The topic consisted of seven
wonders of the world, which were
given by the various members, e.g.
“Eiffel Tower,” by Bruce Amos;
“Great Sphinx,” by David Barnett;
“Pyramids," by Ken. Foster; “Totem
^f^jles,’’ by Cecil Wheeler; “Old
■'.'faithful,” by Mrs. Cecil Wilson;
“Great Wail of China," by Leslie
Wheeler; “Magnetic Mountains," by
Jack Banbury. These all proved inter
esting and also very instructive.
The Journal was prepared and
read by Miss Margaret Wheeler.
Miss Ruth Turner then favored with,a vocal solo, accompanied at the,
piano by Mrs. Cecil Wilson. Bruce
Amos gave the critic’s report. God
Save the King was sung, after which

takes 15 days by boat after a 300
miles journey by rail. It was explain
ed that a bag of cement, costing $1
at Edmonton, cost $5 at Fort Nor
man, where the new hospital was
built.
It was explained that mail was
received in this far northern point
only ten times each year. For six
weeks in the spring and again in the
fall, owing to ice conditions, no mail
is received at all. The speaker told
how much the radio is appreciated
in the north. Mr, Cook explained
the temperature dropped as low as
65 degrees below zero, 50 below
being an average in the winter, with
a high of 90 degrees in the summer.
Some fine picture* of growing
vegetables were shown- Mr. Cook
said that he had grown cabbages
which weighed 22 pounds each. The
long hours of daylight in summer
grew vegetable* very rapidly and
abundantly. Potatoes were an es
pecially good crop, far exceeding the
Oxford County yield.
Ice was stored in the -winter to be
tised for summer drinking water.
/Thus a good supply of pure water
was ensured. He also said that
wood is burned for fuel, jack pine
'and spruce costing $10 per cord.
The speaker was thanked by Pre
sident Geo Tribe who also thanked
those who contributed to the pro
gramme.

Lady Nanton Speaks To Women
of Dominion
Speaking a* a mother with a heavy stake-in the
present war and as a woman who has lived actively
trough many of the phase? of Canada's growth to
nationhood, Lady Nanton of Winnipeg, speaking over
the national network of the C.B.C. recently, called
upon the women of the Dominion to enlist upon the
home front. Echoing the challenge of Queen Elisabeth,
she quoted Her Majesty’s recent words: “Christian
standards and value* are being challenged at all
points and a purely material conception of life offered
in their place. It is for you to take up this challenge.”
•*We are sure of the courage of our men on active
service,” Lady Nanton declared, “but that is not
enough. It must be supported by the equal devotion
of the men and women who remain at home—and
that will be inspired largely by the women. Today
the morale of our fighting forces, abroad and at home,
is largely in the hands of those women who, through
their homes, mould the attitudes of our men.”
Wife of the late Sir Augustus Nanton, whose name
is linked prominently with the opening up of the
West, Lady Nanton spoke of the pioneering days
which had revealed Canada’s potential strength, yet
which tested it severely. Turning to the present, she
added: “The things that can undermine our strength
on the home front, that can weaken our every effort,
are the intangible but evident things such as fear,
worry and confusion, loss of faith in the present and
in the future, the lessening of moral control.
“Many women today are haunted by a feeling of
helplessness. We are apt to think that nothing we
can do really counts. Yet every home in every village
is on the home front. In every one of those homes
is a woman. It is she who determines its spirit—the
atmosphere in which the family lives. Think of every
home in your community a vital centre where faith
and determination and the spirit of teamwork are
bom and cultivated and taken out into the world.”
To the womenfolk of men on active service Lady
Nanton had a special word: “I am one of a growing
army of Canadian women upon whom the future will
make special demand-. My eldest son is new over
seas with the Royal Canadian Air Force. For many
of us there will be separation, suspense and loss. Our
strength will be determined by the way we meet
these things.
“It is a great testing time for mothers who are
the centres of family life. We can either become .
nervous wreck? who demand that children tip-toe
and husbands consider us first, or we can become a
centre of power and comfort for all members of the
family. Think of the fears that settle like a black
cloud over our fives—fears for those we love, fear
of the unknown, fear for what the future may have
in store or us. The natural tendency is to stiffen
under strain. Then the time comes when we break.
Instead of stiffening, we need to learn to relax and
to go to God for strength. Then we can face what
ever the future holds without faltering.”
She suggested that there was cause for rejoicing
rather than complain in some of the seeming hard
ships that the war had brought. One of her daugh
ters in England had declared that last Christmas was
the finest in years because the blackout and other
war measures bad made it necessary for the family
to depend upon each other for their enjoyment in
stead of seeking outside sources of amusement
“We women can reinforce the fibre of the nation
by the moral firmness of our own lives,” Lady Nanton
insisted. “Our task is to keep the home ties firm,
to have the power to give ourselves unselfishly to
those nearest to us so that they may remain true to
their own highest principles."

Canada’s fighting men who have
enrolled tn ths Canadian Legion War
Services’ education program should
be able to “parles-vous" by the time
thia war is over.
Upwards of 4,000 men are attend
ing French classes in Canada and
England, and to facilitate their
efforts the Legion has issued a 00-
page handbook containing hundreds
of questions and answers they are
most likely to encounter in France.
The booklet, published in collabor
ation with the Canadian Association
for Adult Education, also contains
an extensive English-French vocabu
lary. A large supply of them have
already been shipped to Robert Eng
land; M.C., M.A., Legion’s Overseas

Tamte, May •—Out of every
dollar eubeeribwd to the Canadian
Red Crowe Society, 00 cento is being
used for actual war work, it was re
vealed yesterday ta a chart showing
the approximate disposition of the
15,000.000 received as a result of
the Society’s last campaign for
funds.
Peace-time services of the Society,
which do not Slacken at all during
and others have been sent to French
instructors for distrftiution in the
various Military Districts through
out Canada.
A statement released by national
headquarters of the C.LWJ. shows
that, of all courses of instruction
being given, the study of French is
most popular among the men. In the
Aldershot Area Command, in re
sponse to a questionnaire, 2,500 ap
plications were received from Eng
lish-speaking Canadians for classes in
the French language, and about 500
applications from French-Canadians
desiring to learn English.
Assistance to the Legion in ren
dering this service is being given by
Prof. A. Lloyd James, and by Prof.
Desseignet, head the Department
of French at the University of Read
ing, England. One hundred French-
speaking officers and men, drawn
from the 1st Canadian division, are
acting as group leaders.
The teaching of French, aside from
being of considerable cultural value,will contribute greatly to the military
efficiency of the men, especiallywhen they arrive in France and
become associated with the armedforces of our gallant allies. ■

Boys Are Needed For Farm Work '
With a tremendous shortage of farm help in the
offing, Ontario boys can do their bit on the “food
front” during the war, states Alex. Maclaren, direct
or of farm training for the Ontario Dept of Labor,
Toronto. "Farmers are going to be gasping for help,”
predicted Mr. Maclaren. "At the present time there is
a definite shortage of boys for farm work. Since
March 1st, I could have placed 150 more boys if I
had them.”
Mr. Maclaren said boys from 10 to 22 years of age
are needed for year round farm work at from 8120
to 8200 for year with board and washing included.
Boys wishing farm jobs should write him care of the
Dept of Labor, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, and
so should farmers who need help.
There are a number of high school boys who want
to do their bit on farms during the summer months.
Letters have been received From high school boys in
Toronto and Niagara Falls asking for jobs from June
15th till the end of August It is expected ’ that col
legiate lads from other centres will also apply during
the next few weeks.
To facilitate farm placing for (boys, the Department
has placed H. F. Irwin in Eastern Ontario and C. D.
Cowan in Western Ontario. They will interview farm
end and boys who are anxious to get together and
make sure the right boy goes to the right fanner.
Wages for summer months will likely range from
$10 to 815 with board.
Such is the fame' of Mr. Maclaren's work in On
tario, that applications from boys have been received
from Newfoundland and Vancouver. The Newfound
land lad is so anxious for a job in this province that
He says he will get here some way or other, Mr. Mac
laren relates, and it should be easy to obtain a good
job /or him. Over 140 lads have been placed on
farms since March 1st

The Long View
The publisher of one of Ontario's leading weekly
nwspapera relates that one.recent afternoon, when
he was worrying about the state of the world in gen
eral and the state of his own business in particular,
an old subscriber came to call. The latter was a man
in his late sixties, apparently in the best of health
and vigor; but evidently the trend of events or the
weather or both were preying on his spirits. After a
little gloomy talk he announced the purpose of his
visit, which was to renew his subscription.
Handing a dollar across the desk, he said: "You
know, John, when you get to my time of life, you
don’t know what may happen. So I’m only renew
ing for six months.”
After writing the receipt the publisher sat for a

The amazingly small amount used
for administration costs for peace
time and war work includes all ex
penses of branches, divisions and
national and overseas offices; salar
ies; warehouse, packing, shipping and.
overseas freight; division and nation
al workroom equipment; the “Des
patch,” official organ of the Society,
and miscellaneous expenditures in
conducting such a large enterprise.
About 81,000,000 wilbbe available
for further projects until another
campaign is required. This money, it
is explained, will come from the bal
ance of campaign funds in the hands
of the divisions.
Detailing all these items, Dr. Fred
W. Routley, National Commissioner,
referred to the 600-bed Taplow Hos
pital jand said, "A 300-bed hospital
was at first proposed, but our plans
were later enlarged to conform with
a government ruling that called for
a 600 or L200-bed institution. It
in of the hut type, made of brick,
steel and concrete. This fireproof hos-
pitel will be turned over to the Can
adian military authorities when
completed and will be operated and
’maintained ,by the Canadian Army
Medical Corps.
"The sum set aside for this hos-
pital covers construction, equipment,
accessories,, residences for nurses'
and doctors, as well as the sterilizing
plant and a research laboratory for
investigating and combating all
effects of new warfare”.
Dealing with the grants made by
the Canadian Red Cross for campaign
funds, Dr. Routley said, “We are
making the contribution to the Brit
ish Red .Cross because it was not
considered wise to have any sep
arate appeal in Canada for that or
ganization as in the last war. In
making this donation, the Canadian
Red Cross is right in line with the
Societies of other British dominions.”
Of the grant to the StiJohn Am
bulance Association, Dr. Routley
said, “At the beginning of the war,
the Canadian Red Cross agreed to
flnace the work of the St. John Am
bulance in training and examining
voluntary aid personnel for war
service.
“Then there is the grant to Can
adian Logion War Services. They
wfched to undertake a campaign last
fall. It was agreed they would assist
in our Red Cross appeal, and that we
would make, them a monthly payment
of 810,000 until they found it nec
essary to go to the people them
selves for funds.
“Regarding the money granted to
the Halifax hostel, it had been
brought to our attention that no ac
commodation had been made for the
thousands of sailors of naval unite
and merchant ships crowding into
that harbor. They slept in parks.
They were faced with the approach
of cold weather.
“The Canadian Red Cross inaug
urated a movement by its grant,
and the result was that funds were
contributed by the Province, the City
and private subscribers. The total
sum obtained to establish the hostel
amounted to 8100,000, and the
building was turned over to the Y.
M.C.A. to operate.”
Dr. Routley then dealt with the
Beaver Club in London. He said,
“Immediately on my arrival in Eng
land last November, members of our
Red Cross Advisory Committee
there, led by Mr. Ernest Cooper,
approached me and urged that the
Canadian Red Cross should act in
the establishment of a recreation
centre in London, similar to the
Beaver Hut of the last war.
“They pointed out that no provis
ion had been made for the accom
modation of Canadian soldiers on
leave in London. Mr. Cooper himself
regarded the situation as so urgent
that he himself made a contribution
of £10,000. A suitable building
was found just off Trafalgar Square.
A quick survey by a committee, un
der the chairmanship of Hon. Vincent
Massey, revealed that 8100,000
would equip this building and operate
it for one year.
“I cabled the Canadian Red Cross
in Toronto and the executive in
formed me that it would underwrite
the establishment of the Beaver
Club to the extent of 850,000. Im
mediately contributions were made
through the Canadian Red Cross by
Canadians in London. Lord Beaver
brook gave £5,000, and with other
smaller contributions the club was
established at a maximum cost to
the Canadian Red Cross, from funds
donated in Canada, of 822,000.
“We are not responsible for the
operation of the Beaver Club, which
has only day-time facilities. Since
that time we have established our
own Maple Leaf Cltib, which pro
vides overnight accommodation and
meals for the men of our Canadian
forces. It is proving such a necessity
that we must plan immediately to
establish another such club.”
A man was going along the road
holding his hands very rigidly in a
sort of bracket shape at a distance
of about a couple of feet ftom his
body. He caused considerable sur
prise to the passers-by and the ex
planation of his extraordinary con
duct was not discovered until' a
friend poked him violently in the
ribs. Then, as his arms fell to his
sides, he exclaimed fiercely. “You
silly ass! I was keeping the measure
ment of a wardrobe for an akove!”
An old gentleman noticed a school
boy paying rapt attention to a very
large and beautiful painting in a
London art gallery.
*Ah, my little man,” he said smil
ing, "you're admiring that splendid
work, I see. Tell me, what strikes
you most about it,”
“Coo, guT’nor!” the lad replied.
“What a grand jig-saw puzzle it'd
make!”

who spent many years in India, as
an official of the Y.W.C.A. In a
brief but very interesting way, she
lold of the beauty of the country,
the intense heat on the plains, often
reaching a temperature of 128 de
grees in the shade; of the constant
and heavy rainfall during three
months of the year; of travelling in
the hills, or mountains as we wou’d
call them. No other land presents
such contrasts, wealth and poverty,
education and ignorance, many gods
but no real God, breath-taking beau
ty and utmost ugliness. Millions of
people following diverse religions and
ways of living and out of all this
chaos the British-government is ex
pected to bring a united people, able
and willing to carry on their own
government.

SPRING MENUS
With the advance of Spring comes
a natural desire for the f od» which
appear on the market at this season,
■nd for meals which have a spring
time appetite appeal. The Consumer
Section, Marketing Service, Domin
ion Department of Agriculture, sug
gests the following dishes for inclus
ion in the menu at this time of the
year:
Eggs in Tomato Aspic
114 tablespoons gelatin

2 cups tomato juice
1 teaspoon onion juice
1 teaspoon sugar
1-2 teaspoon salt
6 devilled eggs

and salt. Heat to boiling point. Dis
solve gelatin in juice. Half-fill indiv

Among the first batch of volun
teers for the Canadian . Army was a
cowboy. When he appeared on the
range all eyes were upon him. Every
one was rudely shocked, for he
missed with every shot at 100 and
200 yards. But he scored a hull with
every shot at 500 yards. As he was
leaving the range, one of the onlook
ers asked him how he accounted for
his freak performance. “Well,” he
began, “way back home we never
bother to shoot at anything less than
500 yards. We just throw stones.”

That night a group of men rodeinto Turkey Gulch toward the lightof a campfire, carrying a prisonerwith them. On the other side of the
fire a man was being lifted to hisfeet. A ghostly figure, swatched inbandages, gaunt and hollow-eyed. Adead man risen.
“That’s the man.” said Lee Hollister. "Lawler didn’t have anythingto do with it”
There was a stir toward Slanty,but Lee had not finished. His voicewas low, but they heard it
"First I’ll take that knife you wereusing, back there in the Bonanzatunnel.”
The knife had been taken awayfrom Slanty, but someone producedit and handed it over. ' /"Open it.” /
Curly complied, showing twowicked looking blades. One cu themwas broken at the tip. Francisco was
helping Lee take a bit of foldedpaper from his pocket and openingit to show a triangular bit of metalCurly laid the scrap against thebroken blade.It fitted. Slanty moistened hislips.
"Slanty Gano, I accuse you of themurder of Matt Blair.”■A murmur ran through the grouplike a low growl, but Lee went on.“I. never believed that Matt committed .suicide. When I came back; - 1 found, that knife point, nearly hidden in a crack m the drawer of thedesk where Matt worked. -Lee swayed, .fighting weakness,but hl:, tired voice went on.“You shot Matt Blair as he layasleep in his chair, with everybodygone to the barbecue, and then you

When he hadgone I had just sense enough andtime enough to crawl away from theblast, taking a chunk of that orewith me.”He held out a rough, pale yellowish lump.
"Carnotite,” he said briefly. “Idon’t need to tell you that."“Yes,” Bradish admitted calmly,"I was after, the Bonanza, butyou’re wrong about my knowledge
of the methods that Lawler andGano used. It was purely a business matter. The gold pocket thatstarted the rush years ago wasfound on Matt’s claim, and we divided, according to agreement. Allthat I struck on my claim was a lotof rubble and then a vein of stuffthat cropped up all over. But wewere looking for gold and it didn'tmean anything to us. Years later,looking over some samples of radioactive ores, I remembered those deposits and suspected their value."Bradish talked crisply and directlynow, a man sure of himself and hismethods.
"And it never occurred to you togo to Matt Blair and offer to financehim on a partnership basis?”"Certainly notl” Bradish snappedit back impatiently. "Matt hadlived with the thing under his nosefor twenty-eight yean without waking up to it It was his property, butmy find.

He waved a friendly hand to themen outside and walked slowlyback. Virginia was beside him,wanting him to lean on her shoulder,Joey lingered for a moment, witha gulp of emotion, and then he wentout on tiptoe.

The End
Studies by officers of the Division
of .Entomology, Science Service, Do
minion Department of Agriculture,
have shown that only about 65 of
the 2,000 or more species of mos
quitoes that occur in various parts of
the world are present in Canada. It
is the female mosquito that bites;
the male sucks only plant juices. She
may drink twice her own weight of
blood and it takes her about ninety
seconds to become fully engorged.
Domestic and wild animals and birds
are attacked as well as man, but
some species prefer animals to than.
Some mosquitoes may live for sev
eral weeks or even months under
favorable conditions.
All mosquitoes pass their early life
stages in water, and because this is
bo, it is possible to control them by
eliminating the breeding places by
drainage or filling, or by applying an
oil film to the surface of the infested
water. Details of this procedure are
included in a circular on mosquito
control available on application to
Publicity and Extension Division,
Dominion Department of Agricul
ture, Ottawa.
Many preparations for personal
protection against mosquito, bites
have been recommended from time
to time. Among the most commonly
used are oil of citronella, spirits of
camphor, oil Of cedar and oil of
lavender. A mixture of oil of thyme,
one part, concentrated pyrethrum ex
tract, two parts, and castor oil or
olive oil, five parts has been found to
give satisfaction. A pamphlet deal
ing with this subject entitled, “Meth
ods of Proctecton from Mosquitoes,
Black-files and Similar Pests in the
Forest” is also available free "of
charge from the Publicity and Exten
sion Division.
By the way, playmates, I must tell
you the story of Smith and his wife
who -were sitting on the verandah at
a Hew Year’s dance. Suddenly a
young couple strolled through the
gloom and the young man started to
propose to the girt Mrs. Smith' w «*

As announced by the Minister of Finance, the Foreign Exchange Acquisi
tion Order, 1940, has been enacted by Order-in-Coundl under the authority
of the War Measures Act
Unless exempted by the Order, every resident of Canada who, on May
1st, 1940, has any foreign currency in his possession, ownership or control,
whether in Canada or outside Canada, is required forthwith to sell such
foreign currency to an Authorized Dealer (Le. a branch of a charteredbank) for payment in Canadian dollars at the official buying rate of'the
Foreign Exchange Control Board.
"Foreign currency”, for the purposes of the Order, means any cur
rency (excluding coin) other than Canadian currency and includes bank
notes, postal notes, money orders, cheques, travellers’ cheques, prepaid let
ters of credit, bank drafts and other similar instruments payable in any
currency other than Canadian currency, and also includes any amount in
foreign currency of which a resident *has a right to obtain payment by rea
son of a deposit, credit or balance of any kind at or with a bank^aaVfngs
bank, trust company, loan company, stockbroker, investment dealer orother similar depository.
The Order does not require the sale of any foreigiySecurities.
The Order does not affect any foreign currency deposit or "securities
of any non-resident of Canada and for greater^rtainty the Order ex
pressly declares that a non-resident visiting Canada for business or pleas
ure for a period or periods not exceeding six jnonths in the year continues
to be a non-resident for the purposes of,the Order unless such person
enters or has entered Canada with the intention of becoming a permanentresident. >
No resident is required to sel> any foreign currency if he satisfies
the Foreign Exchange Control Bofrd that he held such foreign currency
on May 1st, 1940, solely as trustee or agent for a non-resident and that
the non-resident’s interest therein had not been acquired from a residentsince September 15th, 1939, except in a manner approved by the Board.
Under certain conditions stipulated in Section 1 (b) of the Order,
a resident who is not a Canadian citizen may be granted exemption, but
only after application for exemption is approved by the Board.
No life insurance company incorporated in Canada is required by the
Order to sell any foreign currency which it needs for the purpose of carry
ing on its business outside Canada.
Further particulars may be obtained from branches of chartered
banks. Any resident who has any foreign currency in his possession,
ownership or control on May 1st, 1940, regardless of amount, should con
sult his bank at once in order to ascertain the extent to which he is
affected by the Order.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONTROL BOARD
Little Chats on
Farm Management
Success in Farming
There is a wide variation in the
type of farm business which is asso
ciated with financial success in farm
ing. A comparison between the 25
most successful and the 25 least suc
cessful farms in an economic study
made in the Counties of Kent,
lambton and Essex, Ontario, in 1939,
by the Etonomics Division, Dominion
Department of Agriculture, brings
out the point mentioned.
This area of Ontario is particu
larly well adapted to the production
of cash crops. However, only 14 of
the 26 most successful farms secured
the major portion of their income
from the sale of crops. Five of the
farmers were depending mainly on
beef cattle and hogs for their prin
cipal revenue. Three were speoialized
dairy farms. The remaining three
farms practised more diversified
farming with receipts from field
crops, live stock and live stock pro
ducts. Two of these three farmers
had substantial poultry enterprises.
These differences in organization
on successful farms demonstrate the
fact that no one type of farming can
be held up as a model for any area,
but rather that a variety of types of
organization, if accompanied by good
management and good farm prac
tices, can result in success.
In the case of the 25 least success
ful farms, 17 of these farmers were
dependent largely on crop sales for
their income. Three had receipts
largely from cattle and hogs, four
had a more general distribution of
income and one was specializing in
dairy cattle. Here again it appears
it was not necessarily the type of
farm organization* which led to the
unsatisfactory results on these farms,
but rather les* skilful operation and
management of-the -individual farms.
The successful farm operators
were growing larger acreages of such
high income crops as sugar beets,
beans, tobacco and tomatoes. They
were generally semiring higher yields
per acre and in the case of live
stock obtained larger returns per
unit of live stock maintained on the
farm.
"Mose, how came yo to name yo
little gal ’lectricity?”
“Well, you see, Sam, mah wife am
Dinah and ma name am Mose, an'
dynamos make Hectricity, so we jus’
named de little gal ’lectricity.”
To Stimulate Interest
In Ontario Floral Emblem
To stimulate interest in the On
tario Floral Emblem—the White
Trillium—the Ontario Horticultural
Association has announced a con
test for poems on this beautiful wild
flower.
The contest will be open to pupils
of Secondary Schools in Ontario, in
cluding Private secondary Schools.
Not more than two poems may be

The poem shall not exceed twenty-
four lines.
Each poem entered must be certi
fied to by the headmaster of the
school concerned, as being the orig
inal work of the pupil.
Poems shall be forwarded to reach’
J. A. Carroll, Secretary, Ontario Hor
ticultural Association, Parliament
Buildings, Toronto, Ontario, not later
than June 30th, 1940.
Poems should be submitted in
typed form; but if this is not possible
then in neat-pen ami ink handwrit
ing on one side of the paper only.
Three medals yrill be awarded by
the Ontario Horticultural Associa
tion, as follows: ’ 1st prize, Gold
Medal; 2nd prize, Silver Medal; 3rd
prize, Bronze Medal.
I T’S human nature to let your friends in on a.zgood dung. That’s why 1940 Pontiac owners
are advising so many of their friends to buy a
Pontiac.
Pontiac deserves this kind of friendship. To
day, there's a Pontiac for everyone—27 models
in 5 new series of Sixes and Eights—and priees
start with the. lowest! They're great big cars with
long wheelbases—wide-seated and roomy—with
power-packed engines that challenge the gaso
line economy of the smallest cars. And Pontiac is
engineered to cut repair and service bills almost
to a vanishing point. Visit your Pontiac dealer.

GALA PREMIERE MONDAY EVENING at 7.45 /.in.
TWO PERFORMANCES DAILY

For Every Performance
The regular meeting of the Inger
soll Kiwania Club held Thursday
evening last at the Ingeraol) Inn, was
addressed by Mr. R. W. Hopper, Tor
onto, executive secretary of ‘the On
tario Society for Crippled Children.
Kiwanian T. D. Maitland acted as
chairman of the meeting and the
speaker was introduced by Kiwanian
Dr. H. B. McKay.
Mr. Hopper gave an inteil.
talk, relating how many busy business- ,
men gave of their time and money
to help along the crippled children
in their community. He referred to
the personal enthusiasm and sacrifice
made by a Mr. Allen from the State
of Ohio, who saw the need for such
wdrk, following a disastrous train
wreck. Allen threw his money and
rl»fs effort into the work of first seeing
that a hospital was brought to the
little town where deaths followed the
wreck because of lack of equipment.
After the erection and equipment of
the hospital therd, Allen became in
terested in the general work of help
ing crippled children. He travelled
extensively for many years not only
in North America, but in England as
well, studying and appealing and or
ganizing in behalf of this work. As
a result an international society
for crippled children’s work was or
ganized, and even then Allen contin
ued on his great fight for crippled
and underprivileged children.
Mr. Hopper said that in 1920 Allen
caused a meeting to be held in Tol
edo. Canada was represented by a
man named Arthur Fitzgerald from
Windsor, and out of deference to
his presence the formation of a so
ciety . was given an international
name. A large number of such so
cieties are in evidence today as the
result of Allen's fine work.
In 1922 the Ontario Society for
Crippled Children was formed. Mean
while Mr. Allen’s work continued both
in America and in Canada, as well
as in England. Allen was honored
by one of the largest English uni
versities with an honorary degree of
Doctor of Social Science, the first
time such an honor had been con
ferred.
Mr. Hopper said that when Allen
bad passed on, other? in the United
States had taken up the work, and
had since contributed greatly to the
undertaking.
“Up to now, four world conferen
ces have been held and the work for
and with crippled children has been
put on a truly international basis.
We have now in Canada also what
is known as the Canadian Council for
Crippled Children,’* said the speaker.
"I think,” said Mr. Hopper, “that
there is not a town in Ontario to
day that has not a service club of
some kind. In some there are three
or four. These c}ubs, thrpugh active
committees,- are on the job continu
ally to help out in the great work in
some particular way. Naturally, we
look to the service clubs to see that
they do take up this, work and
through careful surveys locate for
us the crippled children of the right
age who are in need of attention.
The speaker said that the work,
which would cost at least $1,000,009
a year, was now being done for some-
where between $60,000 and $70,000
because of the fine generosity of the
doctors. The general financial set-up
with regard to indigent families or
those on the border-line was ex
plained and the financial burden up
on any club was not heavy when' one
considered the great results procured
for the money spent, the speaker
said.
He told of treatments and oper
ations for hair lips, hip deformities
1 and many other conditions, once they
had ibeen located. In borne cases a
definite age -limit for helpful treat-
quilted and refreshments wereserved. The June meeting will be
held at the home of Mra. W7 Easy ofCulloden.
There was a good attendance atboth the Sunday School and church
services on Sunday. /The pastor,Rev. Mr. White, gave an inq>iringaddress from Isaiah. Mr. Geo. Pear
son of Burgesxville, sang a solo,which was much appreciated. Next
Sunday will be Mother’s Day and aspecial program is being prepared
for the occasion.
me nt wa» set, thus giving greater
import to regular surveys that dis
abilities might be detected in time.
The speaker suggested that the local
club, as well as other clubs, keep a
photographic record o£ "before and
'ter** cases ns far as possible so that
>ture years a definite visual rec-
'o.u, xrfght be available. It waa point
ed out that artificial noses, ears,
eyes, legs, arms and other such helps
were being supplied with care and
exacting detail.
Mr. Hopper said that some 4,600
to 5,000 cases were being handled
each year through the medium of the
society in co-operation with the ser
vice clubs of which there were some
115 in the province.
"You can be proud of that record.
It will pay you all good dividends.
You have in this way a chance to
mould little bodies just as you would
have to mould character,’* said the
speaker.
In concluding, Mr. Hopper dealt
briefly with the many angles of the
work, such as regular weekly clinics
at the London War Memorial Hospi
tal for this district, vocational train
ing, educational matters, employment
matters, and the likelihood in some
future day of a training school for
crippled children. It was explained-
that those who have been helped
back to varying degrees of normalcy,
required particular education, and
handicapped children had to excel
in their chosen work to get positions
ahead of those who were not physic
ally retarded. These children appear
ed to accept their ta«k as a difficult
one, and in most cases set their
minds strongly to the task of mastery.
Thus they faced their handicaps
with more than normal fortitude, and
in turn developed stronger character.
The thanks of the gathering were
tendered to the speaker by Kiwanian
Henry I. Stewart.
