Lions Club Annual Report
North Oxford Auxiliary
Held Regular Meeting
The members of the North Oxford
Auxiliary of St. Paul’s Presbyterian
Church, Ingersoll, met at the home
of Mrs. Donald Sutherland, on Tues
day evening, July 2nd. Mrs. Leonard
presided and the devotions were tak
en by Mrs. Bruce McKay, Mrs. Arm
strong and Mrs. Knox. The secretary,
Mrs. Gordon, read the minutes of the
May and June meetings and Mrs.
Rose reported on the bale packed
recently at her home.
Mrs. Leonard reviewed the pro
gramme of the summer conference
held in Knox Church, Embro and
the topic from the study book, "Mov
ing Millions,’’ on the advancement of
Education in India, was read by Mias
Jean Sutherland. A favorite song,
“In the Garden," was sung by
Messrt. Roy Rose and John Suther
land, who also, during the social
period, when refreshments were ser
ved, gave the patriotic number,
^“There’ll Always Be An England.”
The August meeting will be at the
home of Mrs. Alex. Rose and in
charge of the junior members.
A financial repwt covering the first
full year’s activities of the Ingersoll
Lions Club has recently been pre
sented to its 35 members. A high
light of the report is that over 30
needy children have been afforded
expert eye examination, resulting in
the furnishing of glasses to 25 of
these, who, according to the examin
ing specialist, required them.
The club was also active in the
matter of relief, having dealt with
several worthy cases. Donations
were made to two local circles of the
King’s Daughters.
Since the inception of the club, it
has been one of its policies, when
asking the public for financial sup
port, to try to give it good enter
tainment value for the price asked.
Among the memorable occasions
sponsored by the Lions, might be
mentioned the London Male Choir
Concert, The Royal Visit Jamboree,
two outdor Band Concert Bingos, and
the Christmas Feather party.
The officers and directors of the
club appreciate the generous support
received from the public, and hope
to justify a continuance of thia con
fidence.

Necessity of Economy Is Impressed Upon
All Taxing Bodies In Canada
Responsibility is upon all governments, Dominion,
provincial and municipal to exercise every possible
economy in view of the unquestioned priority of the
war effort Hon. J. L. Ralston, as Minister of Finance
has emphasised.
“The drain the war effort will cause on the man
power, equipment and resources of the country makes
it vitally imperative that all governmental authorities
not only dominion—but, if I may go beyond federal
bounds—provincial and municipal as well—should
appraise, with a sense of national responsibility, the
justification for the dollars proposed to be spent on
normal activities,” he said. “Every such dollar must,
directly or indirectly, come out of the pockets of
the people. It ought almost to go without saying that
to provide the enormous sums which must be spent
by the Dominion this year for defence, the ordinary
expenditures of governments—all governments—in
Canada—must be decreased if they are not to restrict
the amount that can be devoted to the driving task of
defeating Nazism.
“In the federal field I have had the effective co
operation of my colleagues and their department
officers in achieving the economies I have reported.
The premiers or provincial treasurers of several of
■the provinces have discussed this problem with me,
and I have also had the opportunity of conferring
with a number, at least, of the mayore of our cities
and towns on the same subject. The attitude of them
all was so instantly and definitely co-operative as to
convince me that all that is necessary is that the
position be understood, to make certain that the
response of all governmental authorities will be just
a- unhesitating and just as re-assuring.
Glass Sandwiches
Present day safety-glass as used in automobiles
has rendered obsolete the proverb that people who
live in glass houses should not throw stones. Today
they may even fire bullets, for there is a glass that
will stand up to a stream of bullets from a sub-mach
ine gun.
Advancements in the use of sheets of plastic mat
erial as an interlayer between two sheets of glass,
making a sandwich, have revolutionized all previous
concepts of glass for cerjpin and specific uses. The
expansion in the motor car industry following the
last Great War provided a market sufficiently broad
to warrant further research into the somewhat
primitive types of safety-glass that had been used in
tanks and aeroplanes, says a writer in the current
issue of C-I-L Oval.
As research and experimentation continued, the
safety factor was becoming more and more important
in the automobile. Speed and style brought in the
turret-top and all-steel bodies, blow-out proof tires
and hydraulic brakes. Then came the 1939 cars off
the asesmbly line's fitted with windshields and windows
made with a new and perfect safety-glass. The secret
of the new glass is vinyl acetate plastic resin, that
owes much of its early development to research con
ducted by Canadian chemists at Sbawinigan Falls in
Quebec.
A sheet of this new plastic, which is the perfect
interlayer for laminated safety-glass, is so tough
that a large sheet of it has been used for the queer
sport of blanket-tossing and even professional base
ball pitchers has succeeded in cracking the glass but
have failed to shatter or pierce it.
30 Million Ton* of Salt
That is the world consumption of salt according to
a statistican who state's that this amount of coarse
salt would cover a square mile of land to a depth
of 30 feet and yet could be obtained by evaporation
from one-fifth of a cubic mile of sea water. It is an
astounding fact that in Canada alone at Windsor,
Ontario, there is enough salt to last the world, should
nil other sources fail, for close to 100,000 years.
That the Swiss are a hardy, courageous people is
well known. That courage, however, is being testedto the full at present surrounded as Zhey are by
"total war”; yet they are calmly preparing for the
future when peaceful relations shall once more prevail. It is eloquent of the spirit of th\se people that
instructions have been cabled to their representatives
in Toronto to "carry on” with the Swiss exhibit at"
the Canadian National Exhibition this year.
"There is every likelihood in my opinion that the
expenditure of $700 millions and more, for war pur
pose*, plus the very large amounts which the United
Kingdom is spending jn this country, will bring us
before very tang, to the point where everybody able
and willing to work and not needed for military ser
vice vyill find an opportunity for' productive employ
ment.”—Hon. J. L. Ralston in his budget speech.
Recognizing that fish oils with a vitamin content,
when fortified with vitamins A and D, can be a good
substitute for Cod Liver Oil, the Government at Ot
tawa, has moved to restrict export from Canada of
fish livers, fish oils, fish liver oils, and fresh visceral
oils. Export licenses will be withheld unless approved
by the Wartime Prices and Trade Board.
Not a cent of commission is being paid to the post*
masters, banks, financial institutions and commercial
organizations which are selling war savings certificates
and **r savings stamps to the public. Nor is there
any public expense involved in the work of citizens
who are organising and sustaining these projects both
at headquarters in Ottawa and others throughout the
Dominion.
Bath-Tub OceanEven though you may not have the opportunity togo mirf-bathing in the sea this summer you can Millenjoy the invigorating results at a salt bath rightin your own bathroom. Salt has always been recommended to tone up and strengthen the skin tissuesbecause it draws excess moisture from the body and
stimulates th* human ••‘j'tem. To take a salt bath at
home which will approximate a dip in the sea, it is
suggested that a third of a pound of salt, any grade,
be used for every gallon of water, and since the
average person uses from 15 to 30 gallons of water
for a hot bath, five pounds of salt will give you all
the benefits of a hot sea-water bath.

BRITISH INDUSTRIES— From Robert Williamson —IT WRITES IN FLAMEWar Invention That C«U StealLike Pastry
A new machine which "writes”
with flame has been designed and
made in Britain and is now at work
in a big motor factory engaged in
war production.
The “pencil” is an intensely hot
oxy-acetylene flame and the "paper”
is tough steel plate. Instead of
drawing lines, the flame cuts through
the metal as'easily as a housewife
cuts pastry.
A long, delicately balanced hori
zontal arm, which can be swung in
any direction, carries an electric mot
or driving a spindle. The spindle can
be set to traverse automatically the
grooves of a plate of the pattern
which is desired for the steel sheets
to be cut out.
Underneath the bench a similar
arm carrying the nozzle for the cut
ting flame traces the precise move
ment of the upper arm. Thus as the
specimen design is traced on top, so
the flame below cleaves the steel
with exact precision. So powerful is
the flame that it will cut through an
eight inch thickness of metal, or a
number of sheets can be clamped to
gether and cut out simultaneously.
The process can be applied to all
types of design such as circles, ovals,
rectangles, irregular shapes or tooth
ed wheels. It is also adaptable for
hand tracing directly from a draw
ing.
The principle is similar in effect
to a device invented some years ago
whereby a written announcement or
a drawing done on a sheet of paper
could be produced simultaneously in
facsimile on another piece of paper
in a different room or town, or even
on a screen.
44,000,000 BISCUITS A WEEK
From Eight of Britain* War Time
Planta
The capacity and resilience of
Britain's non-armament engineering
industries is strikingly instanced by
the war time activities of one of the
world's largest makers of bread and
biscuit machinery.
Maintaining their overseas busi
ness in spite of the war, they, have
already shipped big modem biscuit
manufacturing plants to Canada,
Australia and South Africa; and a
very big order has come from Chile,
a country which formerly gave most
of its engineering custom to Germ
any. -Of Lwo plants ordered from
Chile, one has already arrived there.
Biscuit manufacture has become
so automatic that dough fed into
one end of the equipment emerges at
the other end in the form of the fin
ished product, stacked ready for
packing and untouched by human
hands.
Ovens arc often 200 feet long,
heated by as many as 150 gas or oil
burners or electric elements. Often
as many as eight plants operate side
by side, producing 1,920 biscuits a
minute or 44,000,000 in a 48-hour
week. Many plants are capable of
rapid adjustment for producing
Army biscuits and the machinery will
stand up to the strain of trebling its
normal output in emergencies.
Britain is the home of the biscuit,
not only in the sense that the public's
taste sets a quality standard and
creates "fashions” to which the rest
of the world aspires, but also because
British engineers have achieved sup
remacy in perfecting machinery to
deal with the amazing increase in
demand which been a feature of the
evolution of eating habits in recent
years.
57 YEARS NON-STOP PAINT
WORK
Of Famous Bridge Now Holding
its Jubilee
The ^orth Bridge which celebrates
its SOthT'anniversary this year,' is a
glutton for paint. Forty-five painters
are regularly employed on the 135
acres of steelwork.
About three years are required to-
cover the whole fabric, and one
complete coat absorbs 120,000
pounds of paint Painting has been
in progress since 1883, before the
bridge was completed, and it is es
timated that well over 900 tons of
paint has been used so far.
The famous bridge, a monument to
British steel, was opened by King
Edward VII when Prince of Wales,
and provided a direct east coast all
rail route between London and
Scotland by spanning the Firth of
Forth.
The bridge cost £2,500,000 and
materials put into it included up
wards of 54,000 tons of steel, 6,-
500,000 rivets, 740,000 cubic feet of
granite masonry, 64,300 cubic yards
of concrete and 46,300 cubic yards
.of rubble masonry. The foundations
reach 91 feet below water level and
its extreme height is 361 feet above
Over 5,000 ChildrenWill Seek Refuge inCanada Before July 25From 5,000 to 5,500 British children, between the ages of 5 and 15
years inclusive, will be given refuge
here from war-troubled Europe, dur
ing the course of the month of July,
according to an announcement in the
House of Commons, Ottawa, by Hon.
T. A C re rar, Minister of Mines and
Resources. They will be placed in
good Canadian homes for the dura
tion of the war.
Offers to take these children in
and give them a comfortable borne
have been pouring in to the provincial
organizations set up for that pur
pose. The number of offers far ex
ceeds the demands for the present
time.
The children are to be sent to
Canada only with the full approval
of their parents or guardians. The
Dominion Government will use its
medical officers and its immigration
authorities overseas for examination
of the children before sailing It will
take charge of their reception at
Canadian ocean porta, and provide
transportation and care enroute to
provincial distribution centres. Wel
fare organizations in the provinces
will co-operate with the Dominion
Government in their placement Mid
after-supervision.
More than half of the initial con
tingent of children will be placed' in
Ontario and Quebec, the remainder
being distributeed in other provinces
on a pro rata population basis.
A communication from the Canad
ian High Commissioner states that
about 3,000 evacuees will arrive in
Canada about the middle of July
and a further 750 every five days
thereafter to July 25.
high water mark, or nearly as high
as St. Paul’s Cathedral.
Vast amounts of copper must
have collected by now on the bottom
of the Firth of Forth beneath the
bridge, because of the many people
crossing by train who throw a half
penny into the water “for luck.”
German warplanes have dropped
far more dangerous things into the
Forth, but the bridge has not been
damaged.
BRITAIN'S ELECTRIC MOTOR
'FLEET
Will Save 6,000,000 Gallons of
Petrol A Year
Six million gallons of petrol will
be saved in Britain next year by the
fleet of electric vehicles which will
then be operating. .
The 5,000 on British roads when
war broke out has now increased to
6,000 and the Electric Vehicle Asso
ciation of Great Britain estimate
that there will be 8,600 of them by
the end of the year, each vehicle* re
leasing approximately 700 gallons of
petrol in twelve months, or a total
annual saving of 6,020,000 gallons.
One London firm now has 300
electric milk delivery vans; another
in Bristol has 300 vans for milk,
groceries, coal and other goods. Big
London stores which have run elec
tric vehicles for years are increasing
their fleets and in the early hours
giant electric vans now creep silent
ly among London’s dust cans.
Australia, New Zealand, South
Africa and Trinidad are now all
showing an interest in electric ve
hicles, especially for short haulage
deliveries.
Former Bank Manager,
Arthur B. Ord, Dies
Many Ingersoll friends learned
with regret of the news of the. death
at Hamilton, Ontario, on Tuesday,
July 2nd, of Mr. Arthur Blagrave
Ord, for many years a resident of
Ingersoll. Mr. Ord, who was in his
86th year, was for a number of years
manager of the Ingersoll Branch of
the former Traders’ Bank, and while
here lived in the house formerly
owned by the late Emerson Reid,’ on
Oxford street. When ,Mr. Ord first
came to Ingersoll, the Traders’ Bank
was located in the building now oc
cupied by Mr. W. C. Dundas as a
grocery on King street west. It was
during the time Mr. Ord was manager
that the building, now occupied by
the Royal Bank at the corner of
King and Thames street, was built,
Mr. Ord remained here for a short
while after the new office was open
ed and was succeeded by Mr, Frank
Bain. He left here nearly thirty-five
years ago for Hamilton.
Mr. Ord was a member of St.
James' Anglican Church and had a
wide circle of friends, particularly
among the residents of the rural dis
tricts, for it was during his time as
manager of The Traders’ Bank here,
that several sub agencies were open
ed throughout the district.
Deceased was the eldest son of the
late Captain Lewis Ord. His wifo
predeceased hip»» several years ago.
Surviving is a daughter, (Dorothy),
Mrs. Menzel.
The funeral was held from his re
sidence, 9 Turner Avenue, Hamilton,
on Thursday afternoon lost. Service
was conducted at the house at 1
o’clock and interment was made in
Mount Pleasant Cemetery, Toronto.
"Sedentary“/work,” said the col
lege professor, “tends to lessen the
endurance.”
"In other words,” the student but-
ted in, "the more one site, the lew
one can stand.”
“Exacty,” retorted the professor,
"and if one lies a great deal ones
standing is lost completely.”

A STATEMENT ON FORD
WAR WORK IN CANADA
This Company is in the war to the full limit of its resources. Until the B^fish
Empire is victorious, until the battle for freedom of nations and liberty of
peoples is won, we have pledged all the vast manufacturingfacilities of
our Canadian and overseas affiliated companies to the service of the Empire.
We regard this to be our simple duty as a Canadian in
stitution, one of the industrial resources of the Dominion.
The 8,400 employees in our plants as well as our wide
spread dealer and service organization from coast to coast
are Canadian. The Company’s shareholders include a large
proportion of Canadian investors. No one individual,
family or company has a majority control of our shares.
For these reasons, aside from our deep feeling of loyalty
to the Empire and its high purposes, it is fitting that Ford
Motor Company of Canada, Limited should give whole
hearted support to the national war effort.
From the very beginning this has'been our course. Eveff1
before war was declared, in co-operation with officers of
the Department of National Defence, we laid in our plant
the groundwork of military production. Since conflict
became a reality we have given war orders precedence
over everything else. More than fifty per cent of offr pro
duction is in vehicles for military use and this percentage
is increasing rapidly. .
We are now engaged in supplying approximately 35,000
motorized vehicles of many types, of which 10,4)00 are for
the Canadian government and*.25,000 for offier Empiregovernments. /
We are constructing at our pwn expens/ a $700,000
to provide facilities for the building of
line gun carriers of which we have under*plant addituUniversal attaken to deliver fifty a week to the Canadian government
as soojp'xs production can be started. This addition will
also dhable us to increase production_of other types of
miliffiry vehicles. Our affiliated companies with plants in
So&h Africa. Australia. New Zealand, India and Malaya
<re similarly engaged in Empire service.
Beyond our manufacturing facilities we have been for*
tunately able to contribute skilled man-power. From our
Canadian and overseas organization, engineers and men
with special training in transport and other lines are
rendering valuable service.
Major adjustments in our business have been necessary
through loss of export trade and because of domestic taxa
tion. We have made these adjustments cheerfully. Our one
concern now is the successful prosecution of this war so
that people of all nations may again be able to work in
freedom and peace. ,

Wallace R. CampbellRe-Affirm« FordPosition In CanadaWindsor, Ctot., J»« 27 “At theoutbreak of war I assured the Canadian Government that Ford MotorCompany of Canada, Limited, would
make all its facilities availably for
the production of essential war tap-
pliss. We have done that. Last night
I re affirmed the Ford position In
Canada in a telegram to Hon. C. D.
Howe, Minister of Munitions and
Supply," said Wallace R. Campbell,,
president of the Canadian Ford or
ganization.
“All the facilities, resources, man
power and equipment of the Canad
ian Ford Company and the overseas
affiliated Ford companies in Austra
lia New Zealand, South Africa, In
dia and Malaya, are now making, and
have been making every possible
contribution to the defense of the
British Empire and the successful
prosecution of the war/’ said Mr.
Campbell.
On receiving reports of the debate
on Ford in the House of Commons
yesterday Mr. Campbell discussed the
matter with Henry Ford personally.
“Mr. Ford realizes fully that all
the industrial resources of a nation
at war automatically become avail
able in the defense of the country in
which they are located. In his state
ment to the press last night, Mr. Ford
said that Ford companies in the Brit
ish Empire are serving their people
as they should do,’’ Mr. Campbell
said.
Mr. Campbell explained that the
Canadian Ford plant is particularly
well-fitted for the production of the
mechanized motorized transport used
so extensively by modern armies.
“Even before war was declared, on
request of the Canadian Government,
we laid the ground work for military
production. Since beginning of
the war nothing has been left undone
to produce as quickly as possible
equipment specified by the Govern
ment
"More than 50 per cent of the
production in our Windsor plant con
sists of vehicles for military use.
This percentage is rapidly increasing.
We are supplying the British Empire
with a total of approximately 35,000
of these units. Of this total nearly
10,000 are for the Canadian govern-,
ment and 25,000 are for use by other
Empire countries such as South
Africa, Australia and India,” Mr.
Campbell said.
He also revealed that the Canadian
plant is being rapidly tooled for the
production of Universal machine gun
carriers. These will be supplied to
the*Canadian Government at the
rate of 50 a week when production
gets into full swing within the next
few months.
“We have a number of men with
special training and qualifications
useful to the Government in war
work. These men are working with
the Department of National Defence
in Ottawa and in England,” Mr.
Campbell revealed.
"At this time I believe the Canad
ian people, are interested in knowing
the extent of Ford military product
ion,” said Mr. Campbell, and he list
ed the various types of equipment
now being manufactured in the Can
adian Ford plant.
, Military vehicles made by Ford in
clude: Light two-wheel trucks, known
as 8-cwt. which are used for carrying
light stores, personnel or wireless
seta; 15-cwt. units, used as anti-tank
gun tractors, water tank carriers,
and to transport heavier loads, per
sonnel, etc.; 30-cwL four wheel
drive, used as load carriers; three-
ton units for heavy loads, for work
shops, for wrecking equipment, etc.;
four wheel drive gun tractors used to
haul artillery, ambulances, as well as
regular passenger can and station
wagons specially fitted and painted
for army purposes.
Fosd engineers in the Windsor
plant have contributed substantially
to th^e design of these army type ve-hiclesT“We have equipped our plant
with the additional tools and dies nec
essary for the production of these
vehicles and we have installed much
special machinery. We have more
than 7,000 men at work in our
plant," Mr. Campbell said.
"War orders take priority over all
the production in our plant,” said
Mr. Campbell.
As an indication of the dispatch
with which war orders are handled
by the Canadian Ford company, Mr,
Campbell revealed that on May 1 a
cable was received from an overseas
Empire country inquiring bow long
it .would take to ship them 8,000
trucks for military use. The imme
diate reply was a start would be
made in three weeks. The company
undertook to build and start shipping
those trucks at the rate of 100 a
day, the first 100 unite to be deliver
ed within three weeks and another
100 each day thereafter.
Credit Union Movement
Is Expanding Rapidly
Nine credit union charters Incor
porating the groups concerned, were
issued during June, Hon. P. M. Dc-
wan, Ontario Minister of Agriculture
anounced recently. These newly in
corporated credit unions have up
wards of 640 members and >31,000
in assets. They bring the number of
active credit unions in the province
to 24 with a total membership of
J,449 and with total assets of >1,-
688,909.13.
Most of the credit unions just in
corporated, have been operating as
unincorporated groups, following a
preliminary study and educational
period by their members on the aims
and objects of the credit union
movement. Charters were applied for
as soon as the regulations and stand
ard forms under the Credit Unions
Act. 1940, were approved.
A large number of organizations
have indicated they will be applying
for charters as soon as technicalities
connected with transferring the
assets of an unincorporated group to
a chartered company are completed,
Mr. Dewan states.
Credit union charter applications
require the signatures of twenty of
the prospective members together
with the usual witnessing and other
legal formalities, but so-called ‘office
incorporations' arc not permitted.
Applications for charters are made
on prescribed forms while standard
forms of by-laws in principle are
used by all credit unions operating in
the province. Similarly, standard
forms of annual returns and audited
statement giving receipts and dis

bursements, profit and lose and bal
ance sheet are used by all incorpor
ated credit unions.
The filing of certified annual returns
with the Department is compulsory.
In this way a check is maintained on
all operations.
Mr. Dewan warned that a limited
number of credit unions incorporated
some ten to fifteen years ago are in
serious danger of losing their char
ters unless the provisions of the new
Credit Unions Act, 1940, and Regu
lations thereunder are followed out
carefully.
