SPECIAL RALLY OF
EX-SERVICE MEN HELD
Oxford County Council
Approves Conscription
Theie was a large turnout of ex-
servKu men at the special rally held '
in the council chambers last week. ‘
The meeting was opened by Comrade
George Johnston, first vice-presidentCanadian Legion, B. E S. L., who ’
troduced the guest speaker, Capt.
secretary, Canadian Legion, Toronto. .
He explained, in a short address, ’
the object of the meeting, and in-
troduced the guest speaker, Capt. (Rev. R. E. Adye, Whitby.
The speaker told of the aims and
objects of the Legion, also of his own ,
part in the organization. He spoke ,
of the many problems that faced the (ex-service man, particularly those of
the newer fighting men of Canada
and the Empire. He explained that ,
the Canadian Legion was not only
for Canada but reminded his listeners-
that it was part of the largest organ
ization of fighting men throughout
the British Empire. Australia and
New Zealand, he said, by act of par
liament. have only one veterans’ or
ganization and that is the British
Empire Service League.
The Legion, the speaker continued,
has the confidence of the government
and city and town authorities
throughout this Dominion and only
as recently as June 11, several of the
Dominion command executive con
ferred with Prime Minister MacKen-
zie King and members of the cabinet
to look over the resolutions passed at
the convention held in Montreal in
May of this year.
Referring to the tragic death of
the Hon. Norman Rogers, the speak
er told how Mr. Rogers flew from
Ottawa to Montreal to represent the
Government at the convention and
also to have placed before him, docu
mentary evidence of affairs relative
to the welfare of the country. Capt.
Adye continued by telling his hearers
that Brig. George Foster, D.S.O.,
Major M. Grieg, V.C. (sergt.-at-
arms of the Dominion government),
Capt. Shields and many others of
the Legion, have been called to take
their stand in this conflict and are
members of this vast organization.
Referring to the strength of the
Legion, the speaker explained that
there , were some 1,100 branches in
Canada with nearly 200,000 members
and in the U.S.A. there were some
200 branches, all working for the
cause of the ex-service men.
Continuing, the speaker said: “We
must hang together. If we do not, we
will hang separately and Hitler will
do the hanging. The British Empire,
. the most abused, most condemned,
has now to stand alone and thank
God there will always be a Union Jack
flying. Eack. and every one of us
must stand four-square. We must be
loyal to our God, our country, our
selves and above all, to our King and
Empire.”
A hearty vote of thanks was
moved by Zone Commander W. W.
McGuire, Tillsonburg, seconded by
George Heenan, Ingersoll, and pres
ented to the speaker. There were
visitors from Tillsonburg, Woodstock,
Beachville and Thamesford present
at the gathering.
Oxford County Council at its
closing session of the June meeting
at Woodstock last week, went on
record indorsing the meisure taken
by the Dominion Government to con
script the country’s manpower for
home defence purposes.
In the resolution, the Government
is asked to pu.h its plan of conscript
ing manpower and wealth to the
fullest extent, giving speed and effi
cient leadership in Canada’s share of
winning the war.
The council also set aside $1,000
to be expended by a special com
mittee in matters pertaining to the
country’s war effort.

Dorchester—Excitement ran high
last week when it was learned that a
dozen lambs and a two-year-old ewe
had been killed on the farm of Wil
bert and Roy Ross, supposedly by
wolves or wild dogs. It was decided
to organize a hunt in search of the
thieves, so on Friday afternoon an
army of farmers of North Dorchester
numbering about 50 swept across two
square miles of country, northeast
of here. The hunters were armed to
the teeth with shot guns and rifles of
large and small bore. The only result
of the “blitzkrieg” across country
and two hours of back-breaking dig
ging along a likely hole was the un
earthing of a small hedgehog. Since
the sheep have been let out to pas
ture, a month ago, wolves or power
ful animals of similar nathre, have
been making nightly trifs to the
flock at the rear of the Ross farm.
Five animals were destroyed the first
night and since then eight liiore have
been destroyed. A watch ivas placed
on the flock for several nights, but on
those occasions the sheep were left
alone.
Provincial' Officers Bin. Milligan,
and John Falton, of the Rondon post,
organized land directed the hunt,
which was lover two square miles.
The hunteri, armed with shot guns,
started theis drive on the side roadi....... east of the Boss farm and
wardU wwintnh .mthee iiadeeaa ooxf
lives before them into
| rifles heid by other
members of the hunt! and by the
provincial officers at the west end
of the bush.. Hut the only animals
seen were rabbits Ind hedgehogs.
Toward the middle I of the hunt, a
’large hole was discovered in the
ground under a spading bush. A
shovel and axe weifo quickly pro
cured and hunters llid aside their
firearms to dig out the animal. In the
course of the operations which lasted
for two hours, a tree was felled and
a series of frenches were built be
fore a small hedgehog poked his head
up through one of the’ holes along
the tunnel. The ardor of the hunters
was considerably dampened/rom that
moment, though they continued to
drive the second mile of territory,
but with even less success. Several
farmers of the district claim they
have seen the marauding animals.
They describe them as being similar
to large Alastian dogs although they
have a very straight tail. According
to Provincial Officer Milligan the
tracks seen about the scene of the
sheep killings are those of wolves.
An organized band of farmers
have agreed to keep a watch on the
district over the week-end. If any
further signs are seen, a second hunt
may be formed in the near future.
The Animals may be in the large Dor
chester swamp, three quarters of a
mile (away from the territory search
ed. In this case it will be a difficult
job to find them.
Following the practice of the last
two seasons, the Kiwanis Club and
the Community “Y" are again co-op
erating to provide supervised play
ground activities for boys and girls
of all ages in Ingersoll. It was an
nounced last week that program
would commence officially on Tues
day, July 2nd, with registration at
Memorial Park headquarters, under
the direction of L. M. Sommer, “Y”
Secretary. Any boy or girl is eligible
for registration, which is carried on
solely for the purpose of grading
children according to age and ability
in the water.
As formerly, the swimming pro
gram will undoubtedly be the most
popular of the activities, and the
instruction for beginners and for
advanced swimmers will as last year
be a feature of the daily program.
More than 60 children passed tests
last summer, and it is expected that
this number will be greatly increased
this summer. ~ '
Management,
Commission, and the Fire Depart
ment have co-operated in supplying
equipment and facilities.
Any older boys or girls engaged
in the war effort or in full-time em
ployment are invited to volunteer
for assistance as leaders, supervisors,
and coaches and instructors, and they
should apply to Mr. Sommer at the
“Y” office for information and in
structions.

Salesmanship Needed To Salvage Tourism
There’s grave danger of Canada's 1300 millions
tourist trade being “sold down the river” by Nasi
propaganda, ignorance and misunderstanding among
our would-be visitors across the line.
A few weeks ago, everything pointed to a record in
flux. The barring of European travel opportunities
had released a quarter of a billion dollars of travel
money. Our U. S. friends were showing unusually
keen interest in the Canadian acene.
Now alarming stories are being heard of the effect
of war fears on prospective tourist guests. One tour
ist, en route to Canada for a customary six months
visit, was so distressed by what he saw and heard that
he took time at St. Louis to write urging that Canada
do something to offset the negative propaganda and
ignorance regarding Canada's position. He says:
“From Florida to St. Louis (1.300 miles) invar
iably people say: ‘Oh, you are hot going to Canada
this year, are you? They are at war.’ This distresses
me because I know how sorely Canada wants the
U. S. tourists now that her war effort is reported
to be costing her $2 millions a day.
“My experience indicates that Canada will fail
to get the U. S. tourists expected, because those
responsible for publicity have failed to get across
te U. S. tourists the fact that they are welcome,
as never before, war or no war.”
One specific suggestion made by this correspondent
is that Canada should arrange to make spot announce
ments through the day, extending our welcome to U.
S. tourists and counteracting the fears which U. S-
citizens have regarding Canada.
There is urgent need for some constructive public
ity in the United States. There is need, as well, for
co-ordinating our tourist effort on a nation-wide scale
in much the same manner as the War Savings Cam
paign is being put across.
In some communities this is being done by public-
spirited groups of younger men as for example in Win
nipeg where the Y'oung Men’s Section of the Board
of Trade has mapped out a programme to encourage
Americans to visit Canada and to urge Canadians to
“Be a Good Host to a Good Neighbor” when our
visitors do arrive.
The plan being developed in Winnipeg might well
be sponsored and developed by Boards of Trade,
service clubs and similiar organizations in every
community.
It should be backed by a vigorous, effective na
tional publicity campaign, headed if necessary by a
separate Minister of the Crown.At present the Canadian Travel Bureau is an Or
phan department along with other branches of the
Department of Transport, since Mr. Howe took over
the new Ministry’ of Munitions and Supply.
Above all, speed is the essence of the problem.
Most families here and in th U. S. ar now making
their plans for the rammer. .If the plans of 15 million
or more Americans do not include a visit to Canada,
this country stands to lose not only some $200 or
$300 millions of badly-needed U. S. dollars, but also
the chance to talk in friendly, informative fashion
about the terribly important issues at stake in the
present conflict.—The Financial Post,
“Total” War
New and tragic meaning has been given to the
phrase “total war” by the recent march of events.
Millions of Hollanders, their* homes in ruins, their
parents, friends, and children dead, now know what
“total” war means.
The citizens of Oslo, ground under the heel of
a barbaric conqueror, know'what “total” war means.
The heroic Belgians, their homeland overrun by the
tanks and flying columns of an implacable foe, know
what “total” war means.
Our own fighting men on land and sea and in the
air—face to face with the monster of force the twisted
mind of Hitler has created—they too know what
“total” war means.
We wonder if Canadians living peacefully, and
going about their accustomed tasks, appreciate the
gravity of Hie hour—how filled with destiny are the
days that lie immediately ahead?
This is indeed a /‘total” war. It is a war not of
armies, navies an</air forces alone. It is a war of
whole peopled; and* to wage it successfully it is im
perative that thl total resources of our nation be
directed to what must be our one consuming purpose
—to win the war.
. Today a means has been provided whereby every
one in Canada, regardless of 'his station, can do his
bit to further this great crusade.
War Savings Certificates now being offered by the
Dominion Government enable ■ the masses of Canad
ians who are still fortunate enough to be living in
the Dominion to make a direct and continuing con
tribution to Canada’s war effort.
To buy War Savings Certificates is an investmentin pStriotisHh—an investment in our own security and
freedom—an investment guarantee'd by Canada
herself.
It is our plain duty—yes, a privilege too—to buy
War Savings Certificates.
We too can serve by saving.
While the Government fully appreciates free will
money contributions by Canadain citizens) it is pointed
out by Finance Minister Ralston that it is preferable
pot to earmark the gift for a particular piece of
equipment. The donors should permit their contribu
tions to be added to the consolidated revenue fund.
The possibility of evacuating British children to
Canada is under the consideration of the govern
ment in Great Britain. Assurance of Canada’s full
co-operation In'Ybis matter has been given by Hon.
T. A. Crerar, Minister of Mines and Resources. The
plan may include Belgian and {French children.

BRITISH INDUSTRIES— From Robert Williamson —TREASURE CHESTS CROSSATLANTIC
Royal Silverware From Britain For
World’s Fair
A young man with a romantic mis
sion is on his way from Britain to
the United States. His luggage in
cludes treasure chests filled with
hand wrought silverware, sorqe of it
specially made to the order of King
George.
He is from the Worshipful Com
pany of Goldsmiths, one of the oldest
of the great Livery Companies of
London, which for the first time in
its six centuries is sending an emis
sary across the Atlantic as an envoy
for Britain’s artists and craftsmen
in gold and silver.
New York will be the first call,
where the content* of some of the
treasure chests will be set up in the
British Pavilion at the World’s
Fair. Among them will be the Cross,
alms dish and candesticks given re
cently by the King and the Royal
Family to the Chapel Royal of the
Savoy, London, for use by members
of the Royal Victorian Order who
worship there..
Some of the priceless antique
treasurers of the City Companies
which were at the Fair last year
will again be on view, but the Hall
of Honour will also have this year
fine examples of useful domestic
silver articles made by present day
craftsmen to the designs of contem
porary artists.
On his subsequent tour of the
States, the Goldsmiths* representa
tive will take the rest of his silver
' burden. He will be a travelling show
man of reproductions dating from the
days of Charles II and Queen Anne,
and of the most modern designs in
twentieth century silverware, some
of the most’fascinating being cigar
ette cases and cigar boxes which
are unopenable except by those who
know their secret yet simple device.
The young envoy, Mr. F. A. Rivett,
who is an expert in precious metals,
will lecture and show a film of the
silver industry in all its aspects.
WORLD'S SHOP COUNTER
Britain Seili £1,800,000 Worth of
Goods a Day
British industry supplied '.he world
with goods at the rate of £1,800,000
worth every day during April, achiev
ing the highest monthly export figure
for nearly ten years.
Cotton goods sent abroad were the
highest in value since October, 1937;
exports of woollens and other textiles
were the best since 1930; overseas
sales of pottery and glass were the
highest for ten /ear?; and those of
cutlery, hardware, electrical goods
and apparatus, and chemicals and
drugs were the greatest for 20 years.
Vehicles of many kinds, including
locomotives and ships, showed large
increase, and coal exports, were up
by £400,000. Beverages, tobacco and
certain kinds of food accounted for
a gain of £900,000.
The total export figures for April,
’he eighth month of the war, amount
ed to £48,300,000, against £41,456,-
000 the previous month and only
£35,149,000 in April, 1939. Added
to these are re-exports (goods made
for export from imported materials)
of £4,434,000, the best war time
total, which compares with £3,-
598,000 the month before and £4,-
580,000 in April, 1939.
In many industries the Govern
ment has specially allocated raw
materials at controlled price* when
manufacturers are producing for
overseas customers.

Moreover, says the Health League

more nutritious than cooked cabbage.
It is pointed out tod, that price

CANADA’S WAR EFFORTA Weekly Sumtnarv <*f Developments on the Home Front.Week of June 14th to 21»t.
This weak in the Canadian Parlia
ment was one of the most historic in
its record. The principal decisions
made both in Parliament and in the
departments of Government can be
summarized a»:
1. An act empowering the Gov
ernment to mobilize all the effective
resources of the nation, both human
and material, for the purpose of de
fence and security of Canada passed
both Houses of Parliament.
2. Notification given to Parlia
ment of the intention of the Govern

COMPLETE MOBILIZATION
Bill 43, which will rank with the
most important measures in Canada’s
history, empowers the Government
to mobilize. *A11 the effective resour
ces of the nation, both human and
material, for the defence and se
curity of Canada.” A short Act of
but six clauses and a preamble, it
was passed by both Houses of Par
liament on June 20th. Entitled “The
National Resources Mobilization Act,
1940,” its main provision is to en
able the Government to “Do and au
thorize such acts and things, and
make from time to time such orders
and regulations, requiring persons to
pliice themselves, their services and
thir property at the disposal” of
Canada. Clause three of the Act
contains a limitation of conscription
for service in the active forces to
Canada only and the territorial
waters thereof, while the time limit
of operation is definitely set as “The
continuation of the state of war now
existing.” The Prime Minister, in
presenting the Bill, explained that
these additional powers were necess
ary both for the purpose of assist
ance to Britain and for the defence
of Canada. The bill is intended “To
remove any doubt as to the power of
the Government, and the wijl of
Parliament that the whole material
resources of the country shall be
available whenever they?ire required
to meet the needs of the war.” Ser
vice in the overseas forces, the Prime
Minister declared, would remain on
the present voluntary basis of re
cruitment.
NEW DEPARTMENT
Department of National War Ser
vices'is a new branch of the Govern
ment to be set up at once, the Prime
Minister has announced. A Minister
will be placed in charge. The purpose
of the new department is not merely
to co-ordinate the activities of exist
ing voluntary war services. It will be
entrusted with the duty of directing
and mobilizing the activities of thou
sands of citizens wfio" are seeking
practical and useful outlets for their
enthusiasm and patriotism. Women’sorganisations, patriotic organizations,commercial organisations, and manyother groups of men and womenbanded together in the national interest are considered a vast field ofactivity for spontaneous service. The
object of the new department is to
help Canadians to help Caanda by
their free-will offerings generously
made and generously continued. The
Minister charged with the duties of
this department will be expected
immediately to establish a dominion
wide organization of voluntary ser
vice, which will be assisted by branch
committees in all parts of the coun
try-
MUNITIONS AND SUPPLY
Mr. H. R. McMillan of Vancouver
has been appointed Timber Con
troller. His duty will be to adminis
ter the timber resources of Canada
on behalf of the Government in the
manner best calculated to assist the
war effort. He will work closely with
the United Kingdom timber con
troller. Mr. McMillan is well known
throughout the country by virtue of
the magnitude of his operations from
British Columbia in the export and
interior lumber business.
Work is already proceeding on the
two large munition projects announ
ced last week. These are being devel
oped in association with the British
Government. One of these, an
$8,000,000 establishment, is a shell
filling plant which will come into
production about six months hence
and will employ 2,500 men. Con
struction work on the new explosives
plant which was to have been erected
jointly with the British and French
Governments has also begun. This
plant will employ upwards of 2,000
men and will be completed by the
British Goverment at a cost of
$12,000,000.
Substantial additions to the pro
jected capacity of shell plants now
in production have been ordered,
while machine tool manufacturers
have been instructed to increase the
capacity of their plants without de
lay. Other work.to augment the
output of the Dominion on essential
military supplies is going forward
rapidly. The nature and extent of
these works is not officially disclosed.
~FINANCE
Arrangements have been made for
the redemption on October 1st, 1940,
of Dominion of Canada registered
stock 1940-60. It is outstanding in
the amount of £19,300,000, against
which there is a sinking fund of £2,-
463,000, leaving a net amount of
£16,837,000 or $74,90»,000 at the
current rate of exchange. The ultim
ate effect of this operation, since it
involves the repatriation of a Can
adian security now held by British
investors, will be that Canadian dol
lars to the amount will be made
available to the United Kingdom for
the purchase of supplies in Canada.
LABOUR
By Order in Council, a set of ten
principles has been outlined to avert
labour troubles during the period of
the war. These demand fair and
reasonable standard of wages with
bonu?es where they should apply.
-Other points are: safeguards for pro
tection of health and safety of the
’workers; no .strikes or lockouts, but
the settlements of differences by ref
erence to the Government concilia
tion services or the Industrial Dis
putes Investigation Act; freedom of
union organization; freedom of nego
tiation with employers by representa
tives of such unions; scrupulous ob
servance of all agreements; no coer
cion or intimidation by workers to
induce others to join unions; suspen
sion of existing agreements necessi
tated by war demands, to be made
only by agreement between the par
ties concerned. The Order also sug
gests that where hours of work must
be extended additional shifts be es
tablished rather than thgamployment
of workers for long hours of over
time.
WITH THE FORCES
Official figures of the Department
of National Defence place the total
of men under arms and in uniform
in the Canadian forces at 113,593.
Of this number 26,087 are now sta
tioned outside Canada in Great Brit
ain, Iceland, the West Indies and
Newfoundland. In Canada 64,656

Experience,—hard-earned over *
long s-retch of years—used to be
necessary to successful jam and jelly
making. And even then the most ex
perienced jam and jelly makers
sometimes had failures. There was
the occasional batch of jam or jelly
that would not set, in spite of the
fact that it had been made success
fully by the same method time and
again! Such baffling results made
jam and jelly making an uncertain
undertaking at the best.
Now to-day—if you use modern
methods, and use them correctly—
you need not worry about your jellies
not setting or your jams being sy
rupy. With Certo, (bottled pectin),
you can control the amount of jelly
forming substance in your fruit
mixture.
One of the first tasks the June
bride will have to face is that of jam
and jelly making. But the blushing
bride will have no occasion to blush'
over the results of her preserving if
she uses the modern short-boil meth-,
od. She will, in fact, have become a
full fledged housekeeper and home-
maker when she has learned this
secret of perfect jams and jellies.
You can even make jams and
jellies out of fruits that could never
have been used by the old-fashioned
method, because they contained too
little of this jellying substance to jell
the juice.
With bottled pectin, the time taken
in making jam and jelly is consider
ably shortened. By the old-fashioned
method, aout 30 minutes* boiling was
required, whereas with bottled pectin
a short boil of 1 or 2 minutes is suf
ficient This very short boiling time
means more jam or jelly from the
same amount of fruit, with the fresh
flavour and color of the natural
freshly picked fruit
Bottled pectin Is so easy to use
and so popular with jelly makers
everywhere, that maybe you will
welcome a few hints on how to per
fect your use of it
1. Follow the manufacturer’s re
cipes exactly. These recipes are based
not upon one or two trials, but upon
hundreds of trial*. These recipes are
as trustworthy as it is possible to
make them.
2. Use only fully ripened fruit.
The recipes are made for use with
fruit of mellow ripeness because it
makes jam* and jellies of the finest
flavour, color and texture.
. Give jellies time to set They
start to set almost as soon as poured,
and continue to set more firmly. 'It
is best if the jelly does not set too
firmly during the first twenty-four
hours, as slow-setting jellies are al-
ways more tender in texture.

Progressing Favorably
The minor league baseball games,

have progressed according to sched
ule, despite the wet season, and
games have been close in all series,
not more than two runs separating
teams in any of the encounters.
Grant Charlton’s Cardinals and Lou
Martin’s Leafs appear to have the
edge in the juvenile-junior and ban
tam sections respectively, although
the others claim that now examina
tions are over they will put up a
better battle in the remaining game
of the series. wUp to Monday of this week, the
following was the standing in the

Chapter V
SYNOPSISJanet Phillipa flnda henwlf left outof thinrs when her wealthier friendsIn Bay City come home from theirDnlsblng achoote and colleges. PriscillaIrtish—At th« moment lute rested laJanet’s old friend Gordon Key — Ismaklnr herself disagreeable. Jim Phillipa. Janet’a brother, has brought herto the dance to which Gordon promised
tne kou pro ior "offered to give rich, red-headed HelenSanders lessons. She mistakes Jim fora club menial at the dance and Ignore*his Invitation to dance. She finds thatHoward l^elgh has falsified Jims position and hurries to explain
Jim was staring down into herlovely pointed face and it seemedto be wiped quite free of sophistication and affectation. He had not
until then realized that she wasvery young, much younger than herpose.
"You forgive me?”
"Certainlyl”
Again she laid her hand on hisarm and he learned that ecstasycan cut like a knife. "Will youdance the next dance with mef
she asked softly.“I’ll be delighted,” he stammered,“only I warn you I’m an awful dubon the dance floor. I'm no lady's
man/’“Perhaps that's why I like you
so much.”
Nothing in his experience hadprepared him for the rapturousemotions which surged through
him at the feel of her supple fragrant body Once when he bent hishead a little bronze curl brushedhis cheek, thrilling him from headto/oot He bad a wayward desire
to press his lips to the seductivehollow in the slender ivory columnof her throat
“You dance beautifully,” tnur-murej Miss Sanders when the
music ended.
He still did not trust himself tospeak. Howard Leigh was comingtoward them with a scowl and still
Jim said nothing.
"I’ll see you in the morning,”she asked, "for our first lesson?"
Jim swallowed hard. "Yes.” he
said unsteadily, although he knewthat the first lesson was behindenem.
It was not apparent on the surface that Janet Phillips no longer
occupied the same position in respect to her old crowd which shehad once held. She did not sufferfor lack of partners at the dancethat night
Gordon did not look happy. Inspite of his mother's persuasions,Gordon had never liked Priscilla.
Even when it was her whim tobe amiable, he never knew whatminute she might turn upon him.Janet understood the distressedpucker between his eyes and whyin spite of himself he glanced longingly at her from across Priscilla’ssleek blond head. When some onecut in on him he could not resistthe temptation to tap Janet’s partner on the shoulder.
"Hello, Gordon," said Janet
Gordon drew a breath of reliefas his arms closed about her. Itwas as if he had escaped unpredictable perils and rediscoveredsecurity.
Involuntarily Janet's voice tookon a soothing note.
“You mustn't feel conscience-stricken about me, /Gordon,” shesaid gently. J
"I feel terrible aoout letting youdown I” cried Gomon in a chokedvoice. \Janet still foun^ herself in the
anomalous position of defending,him from herself, “it isn’t asthough we were ever formally engaged, or as if you had jilted me
at the altar,”- she said kindly.
"I wouldn't have hurt you for theworld. My one consolation is thatyou’re too good for me," he saidwith a mournful smile.
It was Janet's cue to bolster uphis self-esteem by a denial of hisstatement, but she had a suddenvision of truth. "Yes," she said, “Iam.’’? »
She wished some one would cutin, but her friends were too tactful. She muttered an excuse when
the music stopped and escaped tothe dressing room.She arrived at the ballroom tofind that her partner for'the nextdance had looked everywhere forher before retiring in dudgeon to
the bar. Had Janet followed herinclination she would have huntedup Jim and asked him todtake herhome. She felt sure he was boredto death and eager for an excuse
to go, but at that moment a coupledrifted by her on the dance floor.Janet could scarcely believe hereyes. From the rapt expression onhis rugged face, her brother withMiss Helen Sanders in his armswas anything but bored.< “Oh, no!” cried Janeti She did not realize she had spoken
aloud until some one who had comeup behind her addressed her. “Shallwe finish this dance?”
She turned sharply. Tony Ryanstood at her elbow. Evidently hehad only that moment arrived. She
intended to make an excuse for notdancing with him. However, hegave her no chance, to do anythingof the kind. He merely put out hisarms and danced off with her as
if he believed any girl would feelflattered to be singled out by thefamous Tony Ryan.
Janet was glad when the musicended, glad when Priscilla came
skating across the room to asserther prior claim to the visitingcelebrity, glad when everybodycrowded around Tony Ryan so thatJanet was edged to the extreme rim
of the group and finally extricatedfrom it entirely by Ted Hugheswith whom she had the next dance.
The last dance of the evening
was the only one in which no cutins were allowed. Every one wassupposed to dance it with hisescort, but Janet had not seen Jimfor an hour. She had a notion hewas lurking outside with a ciga
rette. However, she made a circuitof the veranda without locatinghim. She was perched on the porchrailing staring somberly at the set
ting moon, when Tony Ryan againcame up behind her.
“Want to dance?” he asked.
“No," said Janet without turning
her head.
There was an interval of silencewhich Janet found trying. In theend it was she who broke what hadbegun to seem a contest betweentheir wills.
"It must be nice to return to theold home town in the role of conquering hero," she remarked in a
light, disdainful voice.He laughed. “It’s a complex, Isuppose. 1 could never convincemyself that I had outgrown ShantyTown until I came back here and
had the seal of approval put uponme by the elite of Bay City. Queer,isn't it?”She gave him a grudging glance.“That at least needn’t worry youany longer.” ,"I always get what I go after."he said quietlv
my idea of the most elegant thing
of its kind.”“It broke Mother’s heart to give
up the place,” said Janet icily. “It sone of the few times I ever sawher cry. Since then I’ve gone blocksout of my way not to pas* the
house. It isn’t pleasant to be reminded that the glories of yourpast are past.”
“If it would be painful, forget it"
"Don’t be ridiculous,” said Janet.“Paupers cannot afford sentiment/1
"That's settled then? Shall we fixa day to go out and look things
over? Tomorrow?"
* "If you like.”
"I’ll pick you up at two at your
home."
She gave him a curious glance.“Won’t you rattle around like amarble, alone in that huge place?"
He shook his head. “Of course I
shan’t live there long alone,” hesaid.
She stared. “You’re going to bemarried?”
"Naturally," he said, "one can'tselect a wife as quickly as a house.”
“You haven't selected one yeti”cried Janet in a dismayed voice.
He grinned. "All I know is thatshe'll have to be out of the topdrawer.”Janet decided she hated him."Locally you’ll find Priscilla Leigh
our highest priced article.” the remarked disdainfully.“So she's given me to understand.” said Tony Ryan.
So far as Berenice and Bill Carterwere concerned, the party at LouFletchei^j that same evening wasnot a success. They ran the radioand danced and made a great dealof noise. The people in the adjoiningapartment knocked on the wall, butno one paid any attention. They
were a quiet middle-aged coupleand did not belong to "The Bunch.”as Berenice's friends called them
selves.The Sheltons were middle-agedtoo. "But we don’t let it getausdown I" cried May, shrieking withlaughter when Guy draped atapestry from the wall about his
shoulders and pretended to be a bullfighter in •><•••'-»•
“Modest, aren’t you?”
“No, just sure of myself. There’s
a difference.”
“Who am I to take exception toyour pride in your accomplishments,” she inquired bitterly. “Youare on your way up, I am on my
way out."He stared at her curiously."Yes?”She shrugged her shoulders. ’’As . y__._ .........._M, .„uyou may know, a generation ago* when they were alone in their own r.my family was prominent locally, apartment.Now my mother works in a store Bill staIked lnt0 the drc5singand so shall I when I finish my room and began t0 hunt (or hi*

Members of the Ingersoll Kiwanis
Club were addressed by Mr. R. E.
Adamson, local apiarist at their- reg
ular weekly meeting held at the Ing- i
ersoll Inn on Thursday evening last. I
The speaker who is one of the dis- <
trict'a leading bee experts, gave a
very informative talk, speaking on |
the suject, “The Realm of the (IJoney Bee.” > |
Kiwanian Alex. Yule, president of I
the club, was chairman of the meet- j
ing and Mr. Adamson was introduced i
to the club .members by Kiwanian
George Sutherland. ,
Mr. Adamson’s talk was of partic
ular interest to the gathering in view
of the great value the honey industry
is likely to be to Canada in the fu
ture. He said that while we in this
country live in a democracy, the bee
lives in a co-operative commonwealth
and works for the. interest of the en
tire group. While there are only two
sex classes among human beings,
there are three with bees—the drone
or male, the queen or female and the
worker, unentire female. Each has
its own place and job of work to do
and if any fail, the whole community
of bees suffer. A colony or hive of
bees is a group that lives in one
house or in other words, one family.
The queen, mother of the whole col
ony, is the only one really spoken of
as an individual. The speaker went
on to explain how the queen com
mences to lay eggs at about Christ
mas time or at the first of the new
year, only laying a few at a time,
but increasing production as the sea
son goes on. The colony increases in
strength as the season goes on and
in June reaches the height of egg
laying. Some 2,000 to 3,000 eggs a
day are then being laid. The speaker
said that 90,000 eggs were required
to fill a cubic inch. The young bee,
when hatched, is so small that it can
hardly be seen in its cell but it
grows in about eight days until it
fills the small cell. The larvae de
velops so rapidly that, in compari
son, if a human baby grew at the
same rate, in one week it would
weigh a ton.
The speaker went on to explain
that nature has been very wonderful
in tfie life formation of bees. He
said the only use of the drone is
to mate with the queen. A good,
strong colony would comprise about
100,000 bees. By the first of Octo
ber usually, the queen entirely stops
laying eggs and so the population is
slowed down again until the warm
weather. Nature has given the bees
instinct to store honey and pollen
in the comb as they must keep
warm during the winter, the speaker
said. An interesting point here was
the story of the firm that once offer
ed a grand cash prize to anyone who
could produce actual assurance that
they were capable of making an ar
tificial comb honey. That offer is
still open, the speaker said.
Mr. Adamson said‘the life of the
honey bee is about 60 days for those
that hatch early in the spring and
those that hatch in the fall will live
through until spring again. The bee
gathers honey and pollen for its own
food. Plants produce nectar so that
the bees can fertilize them, for
while there are some flowers that can
be fertilized with the aid of the
wind, the use of the bees for the fer
tilizing of flowers is much more com
mon. The bees gather more honey
than they need for their- own use
and man has found it and found it
good for his own use too. The bee
gathers nectar from the flowers with
the tongue and it takes about 1,000
bees to carry home one ounce of
nectar. The ripening process of the
nectar takes place in the hive and
when we eat one pound of honey
we have eaten the work of a good,
many thousands of bees.
The speaker stressed here the food
value of honey. Honey, he said, is
a natural food and it has many
strong points because it is a pre
digested food, this work being done
by the bees. Honey is especially
good as a pick-up for fatigue and a
tablespoon or so diluted in a half
glass of water will be found very
beneficial to the tired person. The
speaker said there are some few per
sons who say they do not like honey,
but they are very few in number.
Honey has been found a great food
for children and is being moft and

and other cosmetics, for floor wax

nature has given the bee a weapon
with which to defend itself, the
sting, and a short temper that is
used at the smallest provocation, but
when the bee stings man or animal,
it loses its life, for it must die after
the sting is forced from its own
body.

mended by physicians and leading
hospitals. It is also being used more
extensively for sweetening purposes.
As a sweetener for tea or coffee
the speaker said he felt too much
could not be said. It is also very
pleasing on cereals. Whereas granu
lated sugar is just sweetener, honey
is a pre-digested food and therefore
of high food value. Honey is being
used today by many leading bakeries
and by housewives in canning and
preserving. Honey adds to the keep
ing qualities of baked goods as it has
the ability of absorbing moisture from
the air. It also adds flavor to baked
goods. In honey, the speaker said,
there is sugar, minerals, protein and
some moisture, although honey that
gets over 20 per cent, moisture will
not keep.
“I think part of the great amount
of cane sugar used by people in
Canada might well be transferred
to honey," said Mr. Adamson “and
so help to increase one of Canada’sown products, at the same’time in
creasing the health of the user. We
could do this by increasing only
slightly our use of honey. There are
today some 30,000 bee keepers in
Canada, keeping about half a mil
lion colonies of bees.”
The speaker said that last winter
was one of the most severe on bees with cream and sugar set of crystal,
that Ontario had ever known, when
some 50 per cent, loss was noted.
Many of the smaller beekeepers
were wiped out because of this, he
added.
In closing, Mr. Adamson told of
the many-’uses of beeswax, another
product of the bees. It is being used
today in the making of face creams
