School Opening Has Been Delayed A serious emergency exists at the present time, with respect to a short­ age of farm labour. Due to enlist­ ments, the speeding up of industrial production, and because of other factors existing as a result of the War, the Ontario Government is appealing to the public for .assistance- in harvesting the 1940 crop. As experienced farm help is not available in sufficient quantities to assist appreciably, the Ontario Gov­ ernment has decided to help meet this problem by delaying the re-opening of primary schools until September 15th, and of secondary schools until October 1st, thereby making avail able for farm help thousands of teen­ aged boys. In the rural areas this will permit the boys to help on their own farm*! in urban Ontario it will re­ lease for farm help many youths, who while inexperienced, are anxious and willing to aid in this emergency. An organization has been establish­ ed to enlist these young people in this patriotic effort. All farmers needing help, and all young people desiring to volunteer, are requestedto communicate with the Department of Labour, Queen’s Park, Toronto. The younger boys can perform a U3e. ful service in many phases of farm activity while the older ones should, to a certain extent, be able to take the places of young men who have left the farms to serve their coun.lry, or £aye taken on other duties in eomrecftcrti with Canada’s war effort. increased AttendancewAt Ki-Y Playground*Although the average weather has been cooler Inis summer, good atten­ dances have been recorded at the Ki- Y Playgrounds at Memorial Park and progress has been made in water skills with many tests pas*ed. Fol­ lowing is a list of those who have been successful in qualifying for the Grade I certificate issued by the Na­ tional Council Y.M.C.A. This test includes bobbing for object on bot­ tom of pool, 15 ft. under-water glide, 20 ft. back flutter kick, standing front dive, and 40 yards overarm stroke: Eleanor Cade, Ralph Williams, Bob. Jewett, John Thompson, Marion Forman, Mary Crane, Ruth Collins, Dorothy Bleakley, Red Payne, Sally Fleet, Beth Jewett, Goldie .Reith, Marion Cornish, Molly Heenan, Char­ lie Grainger, David Walsh, Bob. Chaiton, Doug. Hanley, Connie Bearss, Cosette Daniel, Keith Pettitt, Bob. Williamson. These and many others have also partly qualified for more difficult grades leading up to life saving tests. More than 190 different boys and girls havq registered for beginners* swimming classes, and many have been attending regularly and will pass their tests before the playgrounds close down for the season. Any who 'are anxious to complete their testa should see the supervisors at once, as the time is limited. Parents should co-operate in urging their children to pass, as the very fact of successfully passing creates confidence and fur­ ther progress is made much more ■ easily. Many of those taught to swim last year arc now well advanced sntfmmers. i. If the demand warrants, and at­ tendance keeps up, the pools will be kept open all of next week. More than 450 children registered this year, an increase over last sea­ son; but cooler weather has limited the aggregate attendance.

Urges Co-ordinatedAgricultural EffortA plea to put first things first was made by Dr. G. H. S. Barton, Deputy Minister of Agricuture, speaking at the opening session of the Dominion- Provincial Agricultural Conference held in Ottawa July 18th to 20th. Dr. Barton said that it wa., para­ mount to have the immediate atten- lion and concerted action in every government in Canada, “if we are to get the results we hope for aad really must have.” He referred to the previous confer­ ence between the Dominion and Provinces held last September and said he felt that the conclusions reached then had been sound and in most instances, results had been satisfactory. “The task of shaping a program then had not been easy for many rea­ sons. Had it been possible to shape a concerted program for increased production the task would have been easy. It was expected and caused dis­ appointment when it could not be given at that time.” Dr. Barton spoke of the need par­ ticularly during war time for com­ plete co-ordination of action between all governments and he stressed the need for simple plans and simple methods.

VEALEProprietor and EditorfHONESTribune Office, 13 - Residence, 5M— Member ef —The Canadian Weekly Newspaper*’ Aeeociation LOOKING BACK 23 YEARSFrom the Files of Ths Oxford Tribuna,IngvD-vil, Canada, Thursday, August 9th, 1917 BRITISH INDUSTRIES—. From Robert Williamson —THi RSDAY, AUGUST Sth, 1940 National Registration On A-. :< 19, 20. and 21, a great army of Canad­ ian people—all those, male or female, over the age of 16—will move out to the point«M>i registration and fill in the cards containing a number of questions. Why is this registration taking place? Canada is at war. It must put forth the utmost possible effort to accomplish its purpose. That purpose is the defeat of the enemy. In order to do this, we must marshal the full forces of the nation—all the human, moral, material and spiritual forces of Canada. Totalitarian war makes a still greater demand. Modern war involves far more than the fighting fo» ces —it goes beyond the lines. It involves home defence. It calls for the strengthening of the moral and spirit­ ual forces of the nation, and also an increase not only in the production of war materials but an increase in general production as welt We not only have to produce more so far as war material* are concerned, but we must produce pro­ ducts for export because it is necessary that many ,war materials must be purchased abroad, and the na­ tion must accumulate the foreign exchange necessary for these purchases. There can be no slacking. We need more planes, tanks, ammunition. To produce them we need more men, women, materials, money. The nation must produce more, spend less—and be frank about it— pay more taxes. Then it is necessary that our young men should be trained for home defence. They will be called up at an early date for a brief period of intensive military training. In war conditions the strength of the army in the field must be maintained, but the strength of the army of workers at home must also be increased. It is, therefore, only natural that more and more women ought to be drawn into the army of production in order to strengthen the nation in this time of conflict The women of Canada a* well as the men must help. Women can do their part by filling in the registration card with care and by encouraging others to do the same. National registration day should produce a clear record of the woman power of the nation as well as that of the man power. Remember you have a date with your country on August 19, 20, or 21. Do not neglect it There are penalties involving fipe and imprisonment, but no one should be penalized for neglect. If you are absent from home on that day, register at the nearest point of registration. The Registrar will forward your answers to the proper designation. Registration means simply, organization for greater effort—for victory. Register early. To answer the questions takes only a few minutes' work if you come prepared to answer. Read the questions that appear in the advertisement in The Ingersoll Tribune and know the answers'you have to make before you go to register. Answer the questions definitely, especially 14 and 17. These deal with the question of your present em­ ployment and capacity for other work. Your answers may be helpful to you as the demand for labour in­ creases. National production for war purposes means demand for more men and women. Many young Canadians arc already on active ser­ vice. Some of these will give their all for their country. The least that those at home over 16 years of age can do, is to be prompt in responding to the call for National Registration and register early. P.

Miss Esther Sutherland, the energetic librarian at Beachville, has installed an ice cream parlor in the Beachville library. Mr. Gordon Adam was seriously hurt on Friday last on the farm of Clarence Scott, West Oxford, while assisting with the hay. Quebec and France Those who have been surprised at the absence of commotion in Quebec over the collapse of France and the subsequent deterioration of that distressed coun­ try's relationships with Britain must have been ex­ tremely ill-informed about the real character of the ancient province. The people of Quebec are Canad­ ians. That is the essential point to remember. For the . culture and racial memories of Old France they have a nostalgic regard. When dreadful things happen to Frenchmen they deeply feel the pain within themsel­ ves. Yet they are Canadians, living on the banks of the St. Lawrence and the North Riv/r and the Rouge and die St. Maurice. The mountains they love are the Laurentians and the .rounded bld volcanoes rising out of the river plain, \ The disappearance of France as a great nation horrified them as it horrified Canadians of every racial origin. But, as in every’ other part of Canada, the terrible blow served only to strengthen the resolve of the people of Quebec. Cultural bonds did not bind them them to Britain, but the stark fact was that Britain had become their only hope, a< it had become the only hope of other Canadians, and of all the peoples of the Americas. Canada has’never been so closely united as in this present’ hour. The British Commonwealth has never been s6 single of purpose. The little known and kindly people whose trees dip into the waters of the St-’Francis and who see narrow fields climb the lower flanks of Mount Bruno are partners in the merged determination of this grim time. The Canadians of Quebec will be partners in the days and months ahead, and they will be partners in victory when the lights are turned up again around the world. Miss Sadie McGhee is spending her holidays at the home of her grandfather, Mr. H. C.'Ross, William street. Dr. and Mrs. W. -A.

Mrs. McClure and little daugther Catharine, and Misses Mae and Helen Enright of Denver, are spend­ ing some months with Mr. and Mrs. James Enright. H. Clark of the Merchants Bank staff, left on Fri­ day last for Montreal, where he will spend two weeks’ vacation. The barn owned by Wm. English on King street east, was destroyed by fire on Friday evening last. The loss is heavy as Mr. English lost several valuable prize winning chickens in the fire. A public exhibition of the canning of vegetables and fruit will be given in the town hall on the after­ noon of Tuesday, August 14th by Miss Foote of the Ontario Department of Agriculture. The agitation> to exempt farm laborers from mil­ itary duty is growing. While school boys and students already sent out to aid farmers, have evinced a wil­ lingness to work, their lack of training leaves much to be deaired. With a late harvest in prospect, farm­ ers are sadly in need of experienced help. The “Sinclair Trophy’’ donated by V. A. Sinclair, M-P.P., Tillsonburg, was" brought to Ingersoll on Friday evening last, when a rink skipped by C. H. Sumner, defeated a Tillsonburg rink 27 to125 shots. The Ingersoll players were R. B. Hutt, W. J. Elliott, E. Lee and C. H._ Sumner, skip. In pie list of casualties appearing this week the name of Lieut Wilford McKay was reported as miss­ ing. He is a son of the late Dr. Angus McKay and went overseas with a special draft of officers from the 168th Battalion. BRITAIN’S VAST COALRESERVESNow Bolos Shipped A<ro.» AtlanticCargoes from the vast supplies ofBritish coal which have accumulatedas a result of the submission ofFrance have already been shipped JoSouth America and Portugal. Further inquiries are now being [ negotiated, and within the next few 1 weeks the export of coal from Great Britain will rapidly increase. Canada, as well as South America and Portugal, will have more plenti­ ful supplies at cheaper prices. The British coal industry, which is aiming at an annual production of 286,000,000 tons, . or 40 millions more than in peace-time, had a re­ spectable surplus as the result of Germany's invasion of Scandanavia. It was at fast hoped that some of this would be available for Britain’s customers overseas, but when the Germans marched into Holland, Bel­ gium and Northern France, all avail­ able supplies were rushed to France, whore coalfields had been seized by the enemy. The subsequent submission of France, however, together with the entry of Italy into the war, virtually put a stop to all shipments of coal to Europe outside Spain and Portu­ gal, and there is now a respectable volume of suitable coal piling up at the British ports of shipment. Countries which were obliged to go elsewhere for supplies while Brit­ ain was assisting her late ally, again have a wide choice of cheap fuel, probably better than at any time since the commencement of hostili­ ties in Europe.

Within the British Commonweath, three Border Leicester rams, three. Cheviot rams and three Wensleydale rams have gone to India. Kenya has taken a Large White sow and the Fed. crated Malay States have purchased a bo/riDand gilt of the Middle White breed. Laige White and Middle Whitesows have also gone to Palestine.Two Large White boars have beenbought by Sweden; a Berkshire anda Middle White bear by Japan. Astallion, as well as 'bulls, pigs andsheep have all been recently shippedto South America.The stallion, a thoroughbred siredby the historic Blandford, has beenshipped to the Republic of Colombia,a country which has always been welldisposed towards English stock; the Colombians have also taken a bull of the South Devon breed, which won the championship at the South Devon Cattle Society’s show in April this year, and a bull of the Red Polf breed. Both of there are fine big beasts admirably adapted to the pro­ duction of good quality beef cattle. Another famous English beef breed, the Hereford, is represented by two bulls which have been shipped to Ur- uquay. Chile has taken a Large White boar, a ram and three ewes of the Hampshire Down breed. The latter, which have just arrived,.have already delighted the buyers who declare that there are no better animals of their type in all Chile. Breeders in both hemispheres, it is felt, are fortunate in the maintenance from Great Brit­ ain, the worlds .principal source of pedigree livestock, of the supply re­ quired for the infusion of new blood into their herds. SAVILE ROW DRESSES THE AMERICAS World's Smartest Tailors Shipping 1,000 Suits a Month One thousand suits from London’s Savile Row are crossing the Atlantic every month in spite of the war; be- because of it, indeed. Most of Hiem are going to Ameri­ cans who used to come to England once a year. Their measurements, mailed to London with their order, vary very slightly. Americans, Sav­ ile Row reports, are growing rather stouter. In fact the only losses of weight noted since war began are in officers back from Dunflirk. Many of them have lost a stone. After paying duty, each suit costs its American wearer between £20 and £30. The wearer usually leaves, the choice of material to his London tailor; and one of them orders as many as> twenty suits at a time. Smart Argentine men are also fol­ lowing London fashions and a weal­ thy citizen of Buenos Aire* has in­creased the export of EngJUh *uilaand shoes to the Argentine by sug­gesting to his'London tailor that^ forevery Argentine patron who visitedEngland, there were twenty Argen­tines who would buy suit* and shoesfrom Mayfair if Mayfair would cometo them.So to-day the well-dressed Argen­tine has the new season patternsrent to him with minute measurementdirections, and in this way the beat London tailors are dressing Buenos Aires in suits of English cut. There is only one difference: the Argentine prefers silk linings. Similarly one famous London shoe­ maker is sending two of his skilled workers to U.S.A, and South America to create wooden models of his clients* feet from which in Mayfair they now build on each personal last shoes and boots that are scientifically exact. KING’S PIGEONS FOR POSTAL SERVICE Four Young One* Each Carry 35,000 Word* On Thin Film Pigeons from the King’s loft at Sandringham have been added to a pigeon post organised to operate in the event of a national emergency in Great Britain. The pigeon post was inaugurated in July last year by the Duchess of Kent when she visited Fort Dunlop and released the first flock of pigeons from their baskets. On the eve of the outbreak of war a pair of blue checks arrived from Mr. E. W. Steele, the King's pigeon keeper. They are long distance birds, four or five years old, of the stock winch has won the big races from Lerwick in Shetland and Bordeaux. To-day they have four young ones less than a month old, all at present being trained by Mr. Harry Collins, a fancier who has charge of the loft of fifty birds. Two of the Royal birds, ail blue checks like their parents, are being trained to fly thirty miles away to the Company’* war-time headquar­ ters. The other two will make the return journey. “They will do almost a mile a min­ ute, except in a side wind,” said Mr. Collins. “They can’t fly at night. I have never known any homers train­ ed for night flyingv They come down to sleep and they will go two days without food.” In addition to the pigeon loft at ENJOY ITS GENUINE headquarters, lofts are being opened up in other parts of the country for the service, which is tho only organ­ ized civilian pigeon post in Great Britain. By reducing message? to facsimile^ in a special thin film the birds can take 35,009 words in an aluminum carrier fixed to their legs. Each cen­ tre has apparatus for reducing the messages Snd for magnifying them to a readable script when received. The young man had been reading knightly romances, and he grew dis- satified with the prerent unrumantic state of the world. He believed it his duty to infuse some romance into the daily round. On a very rainy day he sallied forth to perform some knightly errand. He beheld a very smart girl just stepping on to the muddy pavement from a car. Has­ tening forward^ he spread his over­ coat under her dainty feet. She looked at him in surprise. "Of all the •darned idiots!” she exclaimed.

HEALTH LEAGUE of CANADA Writing in the current issue of “Health-”, official organ of the Health League of Canada, the Editor points out the need for the work now being ,done by voluntary health organiza­ tions under responsible leadership. Such work does not, he intimates, overlap that of Provincial or Federal health authorities. Without the efforts of such societies, Governments would be heavily hampered, it was pointed out. More than this, the voluntary associations, which offer the private citizen an opportunity to participate in a movement of national import-, ance, are a feature peculiar to dem­ ocracy. The fact that such associa­ tions are suppressed under dictator­ ships is one of the reasons for the decline in popular living standards in authoritarian states.

LIMITEDHEAD OFFICE. TORONTO citizens to achieve worthy aims is a rational procedure resulting from the development, of .public opinion which should precede government action. Frequently by such means pioneer work is made possible which would otherwise be difficult of achieve­ ment,” says the editor of "Etealth.” Over-enthusiasm in the matter of sun-bathing is sure to spoil a holiday from the start, an article in-the cur­ rent issue of “Health,” official organ of the Health League of Canada, suggest. “Half-cooked arms and legs may make the most determined vacationist miserable," says Charles E. Plewman, writer of the article in question,” and a bad dose of sunburn is likely to follow too reckless exposure to the hot rays before the delicate skin has been acclimatised.” Sitting directly in the sunshine with uncovered head, may bring on a crippling sunstroke, “Health” also warns, and the consequences of such a stroke may be far-reaching. Exposure to sun-rays should be only brief during the earlier days of the holiday, and it should take 16 days for a child’s skin to tan with safety. « Control of Weeds In Lawns By Chemicals Most of the weeds in lawns have broad leaves. Another characteristic is that the growing tip of the stem is exposed. Grass, on the other hand, has narrow leaves and the growing tip of the stem is protected by a sheath or covering. This difference between most weeds and grass makes the former more susceptible to injury from chemicals than the latter. The value of a number of different chemicals for the control of weeds in lawns is 'being determined at the Central Exprimental Farm, Ottawa, states Geo. Knowles, Field Husban­ dry Division, Dominion Experimental Farms Service. The results of pre­ liminary tests indicate that fertilizers, such as calcium and ammonium sul­ phate, which are caustic in nature, qffer considerable promise as her­ bicides. . When either cyanamid or ammon­ium sulphate is used to control weeds in lawns, they should be applied in the form of a fine dusVand be dis­ tributed very uniformly at the rate of about 5 to 6 pounds per 1000 square feet of lawn. It is essential that these dusts be applied with a blower type of duster in order to get the uniform coverage. When cyana- mid or ammonium sulphate dust is applied unevenly there is a marked injury to the grass on the areaa which receive too heavy an applica­ tion. This treatment, bums the top growth of broud-leafed weeds. The grass is. also scorched but recovers in about ten days. A second or third application should be made when a regrowth of weeds appear. In addition-to reducing the stand of weeds the application of cyana­ mid or ammonium sulphate on a lawn in the form of fine dust stimulates a more vigorous growth of grass and improves its general, appearance. A Sunday School teacher was try­ ing to impress on her pupils the need for missionaries in the East, and told the story of a poor native who broke his arm and was taken to a hospital, where he learned for the first time about the Christian relig­ ion. “Very soon,” she concluded, “he was well and returned to his home. Now, how could he learn more about religion?” There was silence for a moment, then one bright child volunteered, “Please, he could break his other arm.” D U N L O P 'F O R T ' GIVES YOU 2000 TEETH TO GRIP THE ROAD FOR GREATER SAFETY You pay no more for Dlinlop Supremacy.

Farmers Advised To Add Extra Ewes To Sheep Flocks With the greatly increased demand for (Wool, due to the war, it would seem to be good business for the farmers of Canada to make imme­ diate prepartions for supplying as great a proportion as possible of the war time requirements, the Domin­ ion-Provincial Agricultural Confer­ ence held in Ottawa July 18 to 20, was told by A. A. MacMillan, Pro­ duction Service Dominion Depart­ ment of Agriculture. There is no assurance as to the future level of food prices, he ■•aid, but it is certain, however, that there will be a con­ tinued demand for a greatly in­ creased volume of wool during the period of the war and it is obvious that increase-i production of wool will automuctically result in an ad­ vance in the output of lamb. It would appear safe and good in­ surance for those already keeping sheep to add a few extra ewes to their flocks in the fall of this year, stated Mr. MacMillan. In the ease of fanners who are not now keeping sheep but who have the facilities of feed and housing, the^ present time seems to be opportune to be able to contribute to the present need for wool by keeping a few sheep. Considerable difficulty may be anticipated in connection with the purchase of suitable breeding ewes and plans should be made not later than September to purchase well grown, healthy ewe lambs which could be bred not later than the coming fall. It was pointed out to the Confer­ ence that even in peace time con­ sumption of wool in Canada is three to four times in advance of the coun-< try’s production. The normal annual output of wool in the Dominion is about 18,000,000 lb., greasy basis. Prof. H. R. Kemp, Economic Ad­ viser to the War Time Prices and Trade Board told the Conference that many of Canada’s agricultural prob­ lems arise from the existence of sur- Tfluses; in wool there a deficit, he said.

Wheat threshing started in thisdistrict last week but the heavy rainsduring the week-end has put a stopto it. Wheat is reported yielding fair,but the grain is considerably shrunk. Many attribute it to the continuedwet weather the early part of thei=eason. Oat harvest was in fullswing the latter part of last week,but the heavy rain on Sunday andMonday has held up this work also for a few days. The rainstorm pn.Sunday evening , was - accompaniedby a strong, wind which put the oatsdown bad in many cases. This grain.will now' have to be cut one way.

The use of oil cans for food is con­ sidered to be very dangerous prac-, tice since they a nr made of Terne plate, a plating which is almost wholly lead, and very small amounts of lead are poisonous. Cans made expressly for foods are entirely different and can be bought at a nominal price from hardware stores and mail order houses. Years of research have gone into the manu­ facture of cans for canning food, ■with the result that the inside plating is lead free. This is done to make it impossible for foods to become con­ taminated with lead, and no cans should be used for fruits, vegetables, meats or fish other than those made as food cans. Oil cans are not food cans and should not be used for any food product GE R T OY t A h L * T D ir O es M yo IN u I n O ee N d right now .,. take month* to pay for them on th* easiest terms in town.

Phons 322 Malta Is Well DefendedBy Race of FightersAlthough the British Navy w themain bulwark of strength againstattacks on Malta, th* island of 265.-000 people has bred a race of ngi.t-ers with formidable army units of itsawn.Principally agricultural workers,the Maltese have no need of physical culture campaigns to keep them fit. The healthy lives they lead keep them in splendid physical condition, and their characteristic* — stocky build, broad shoulders, deep chest* and short legs—make them ideal fighting men. The business of fighting has, in fact, become almost a part of their lives, for they have had to defend their propeities and liberties since the days when the corsairs and pir­ atical bands ravaged the islands and lands in the Central and Western Mediterranean. The years which have elapsed since the first British connections with Malta at the beginning of the blockade of the beleagured French garrison of Valletta in 1798, have seen no less of war than the two preceding centuries. During those 140 years the Mal­ tose have served in the British Army in Spain, Sicily, Corsica, Italy, Egypt, the Sudan, in Crete and in Cyprus, in South Africa and India, and during the Great War of 1911-1918 there were men from Malta on every battlefront and at every Naval en­ gagement. As Italy was then an ally of Brit­ ain, the Malta home units were not called upon for active service. But they were ready, as they are now. It is not strange, therefore, that the Maltese have rallied to the Brit­ ish fighting forces with u spirit which is second to none in the Common­ wealth of Nations. The rush of vol­ unteers was enormous, so much bo that it was found possible to send a contingent for service overseas with­ out in any way weakening the defen­ sive strength of Malta. Today the island is a fortress pack­ ed with fighting men. It has the Roy­ al Malta Artillery, with a Heavy Regiment for a Coastal Defence and an efficient series of anti-aircraft batteries manned by both Regular soldiers and Territorials. Already this unit has successfully repulsed Italian air attacks on the Island and caused losses. A second fighting unit is the Kings Own Malta Regiment, a force composed of two battalions. There are also the Malta Section of the Royal Engineers, the Maltese Artisan Section of the Royal Army Ordinance Corps, and Malta’s, own voluntary force to combat any at­ tempted invasion by parachute troops. Both of the main fighting units have tradition behind them. The Ar­ tillery can trace its direct ancestry through the Royal Malta Fencible Artillery of 1861 back to the earliest embodiment of Maltese troops under British officers effected by Colonel Thomas Green (afterwards Lord Lynedoch), when he arrived to take charge of the land operations against the French in Valletta towards the end of the 1798-1800 blockade. The Maltese Light Infantry, raised in 1800, were the first regular corps of Maltese paid troops on the British strength. It became known as the Royal Malta Artillery 89 years later on the formation of the Royal (now the King’s Own) Malta Regiment. The birth of this Infantry unit pro­ vided a typical example of the spirit of Malta. Organisation began on May 1, 1889, and (before the end of that year it was up to strength and a fully equipped force. It continued as a Militia unit until shortly after the last war, when it was disbanded. It had two battalions, all the officers being Maltese with the exception, of an English adjutant. He was retained with a few colleagues and non-commissioned officers to form the nucleus of a new Regiment should the necessity arise. The decision again to recruit it to foil Territorial Army strength was made in 1932, when Cojonel E. J. Vella, a Maltese who was second in command of the old Militia Regiment, became Commanding Officer of the 1st Battalion. The 2nd Battalion was formed about twelve months ago. All the officers for both the Artill­ ery and the Infantry, are trained at Army centres and schools in Eng­ land. In training the new Territorial force they had the assistance of'offl. cers of the historic Royal Irish FuriL ier*. In addition to its Home Defence organisation, Malta sends hundreds I Navy—the fine seamen> send men> by way of1 training ig effort forone small island! of recruits into the Roya Maltese are exceptionally—and recently began V into the Royal Air Foretrecruiting depots antschools in England. in fact, a grand figfitii wsonwMr Chai les Greenfield of HamiUsroent the week-end in Ingersoll.M>*» Jean Gall is visiting her sis­ter, Mrs. McCullough and Dr. Mc­Cullough, at New Liskeard.Mr, and Mrs. H.

FUR R IERS 529 Dundai St. Woodstock Women’s Institute Makes 7 Tons Strawberry Jam For Wounded Soldier* Will Be Shipped To Britain For Can- , adian Boy* in Hospital—Red Cross Supplies Cans—60 Tons Objective. For Season—Currants and Rasp­ berries Next. Wounded Canadian soldiers in British hospitals this winter are going to send fervent prayers of thanks to 2000 members of the Ontario Wom­ en’s Institutes who have already ' made almost seven tons of strawberry jam for their hospital breakfasts. Before the snow flies it is confidently expected that 30,000 cans supplied by the Red Cross to the W. I., will be filled with currant, raspberry, 'plum, peach and grape jam to the imposing total of sixty tons. British children who have been evacuated from the larger cities and towns to the country will also get a share of this Canadian jam, states Miss Mary Clark, Sup. of Women’s Institutes, Ontario Department of Agriculture, who is supervising this important war-time activity originat­ ed by the Norfolk County Institutes and enthusiastically backed by the Hon. P. M. Dewan, Ontario Minister of Agriculture. Reports from 65 W. I. branches show 13,584 pounds of strawberry jam have been made to date and final reports will total over »even ton*. |Canning ha* been done in the fruitdistrict*, in homes, church kitchens,community kitchens and in canningfactarie- The fruit and sugar have :all been donated to or purchased bythe Women's Institutes.Jam is being made by the W. I. inthe following Southern Ontario coun­ties: Essex, Kent, Lambton, Elgin,Middlesex, Norfolk, Oxford, Haldi-mand, Brant, Welland, Lincoln, Wentworth, Halton, Peel, South York, Durham, Hastings and Prince Edward. Currant* and raspberries are next an the list and donations will be gladly received from fruit grower* and others. Just get in touch with your nearest Women's Institute Branch if you want to provide some good Ontario jam for the boys who have fought for you. It is just an­ other way, and a very good way, of showing your appreciation. The Wo­ men’s Institutes will do tho work. Norfolk County W. I. has been out­ standing in this work to date, Port Dover putting up 325 cans and Sim­ coe 326. Jordan has prepared 152 cans, Waterdowa 305 and Stoney Creek 105 cans of four pounds each. Colonie* Give Freely To Help Britain Win “As the first stick (i. e. weapon) from Basutoland is now being sent, I, Seiso Griffith, Paramount Chief of Basutoland, on behalf of the Chiefs, sub-chiefs and Basuto nation, desire to reiterate our expression of unswerving loyalty to His Majesty the King and his Government, and to express the hope that our small con­ tribution, which is made with sin­ cerity and is entirely voluntary, may be of assistance in this great struggle, in which the British Empire is en­ gaged against Germany. His Majes­ ty’s Government is justly fighting this war and God will be with u«.” And with this inspiring message, the Basuto chief sent a gift of ap­ proximately $25,000 from his native community. • The gift was typical of the -spirit of encouragement and assistance that courses through the great col­ onial empire. Cash sums exceeding in all three millions sterling have been sent to Great Britain. But the story does not end there. Gifts have been made in war materials foodstuffs, even cattle. So far, nine motor ambulances, costing over £500 apiece, have been given to the British Red Cross by people in the Colonies. Two of them were given by the Chinese commun­ ity in Trinidad, two by Toe H in Bermuda two more by the Gold Coast and three,, specially for the R.A.F., by Hindus in Salisbury, S. Rhodesia. The people of Mauritius have, in addition to their cash contribution of £14,000, imposed a special duty on their sugar exports to provide the funds for a warplane for Britain. Children of Jamaica saved up their pocket-money and send £100, all in pennies, as a birthday present to Princess Elizabeth for her favorite war charity. The island of Grenada made a gift of 80,000 lbs, of cocoa for the fight­ ing forces, and Trinidad is sending grape fruit for the same purpose. In Jamaica they are planning gifts of rum, preserves, cigars and citrus fruit for the Allied Armies. Bermuda will be sending all her surplus potato crop free to the Mother Country. Recently Bermudi­ ans sent one of the strangest, though, by no means least acceptable war • gifts—1,500 tons of scrap metal col­ lected in the Colony.

Among war gifts from the G’ld Coast and Nigeria have been 40 head­ loads of foodstuffs for the serving forces and contributions of money down to as little as 3d a month. In East Africa native chiefs have given rice, maize, beans and potatoes, specially grown on a communal •basis as a war contribution from their tribes. One Chief contributed 94 head-of cattle and another 100 bulls. This was in accordance with the age-old African custom of supplying the lighting men with meat. But, in this war money js more needed than meat, so with the Chief’s approval, the cattle were sold. The 100 bulls rea­ lized £300. In South Rhodesia, one old Afri­ can, a cousin of the late King Loben- gula, drove up his whole herd of 60 cattle to the District Commissioner'* office and stated they were to be sent to "George”, meaning King George, to help pay for the war. He was with difficulty persuaded to make a more modest sacrifice. Others sent gifts of money. One leading East African sent £2. He had just been reading in “Mein Kampf” that it was a crime to edu­ cate Africans.

Bill’*On the twentieth of August Tony Ryan planned to give a housewarm­ing at the old Radcliffe mansion.He sent out elaborately engravedinvitations. “At home from four tosix,” they read. Janet turned overher key to him the afternoon be­ fore. Her job was finished. She hadeven filled every available vase wjthflowers.*T hope everything is satisfac­tory," she stammered.“Sure,” he acknowledged absently. Her heart seethed with rebellion.It meant nothing to him, the gra­cious old home into which had goneso many of her dreams. It wasmerely something for which he hadpaid out checks. He was handing her a check at that moment, a verygenerous one. She yearned to tearit up and fling the pieces in his face."I included your services for to­morrow," he said carelessly."Tomorrow?” He grinned. "I’ve done a lot ofweird things in my time, but I'venever yet been the host at an after- " Please be on hand early," he said, “to help me receive or what­ever they call it, and for Pete's sakekeep an eye on the refreshments.I’ve engaged the best caterer in town, but he's already asked me adozen questions I don’t know howto answer.” Janet was thinking about Tony the next afternoon while she dressedfor the party and her cheeks burned.He infuriated her to the point oftears. He had all along. Her grayeyes were mutinous when she facedthem in the mirror. She was wear­ing flowered pink and white chiffonShe had bought it with the moneyshe earned renovating the old Radcliffe house. With Tony Ryan'smoney, she reminded herself, mak­ing a face at the glass. Her motherhad selected the frock and it wasadorable. She received a small square florist box from Tony Ryan shortly before she was ready to start thatafternoon. There was a card enclosed across which he had scrawled,-Will tend a car for you. Tony. Janetmade another face. She did not wanthim to do the gracious thing in herbehalf. She never had wanted tobe compelled to think better of him.She was frowning when. she camedownstairs to wait for the car. Toher astonishment she found old MrJacoby posed on the front stoop inan ancient frock coat apd/stripedgray trousers, wearing a white daisyin his buttonhole. /“Ready?" he inquired ip an eagervoice. “Maybe you’d better look meover. It’s many a year ajnee I’vebeen to a party.”Janet could not believe her ears.“You're going to the tea!”"The boy wouldn't take no foran answer.” said Mr. Jacoby proudly. “We've grown to' be pretty goodpals, you know. I and Tony. Hecomes by every now and then totalk to me. Says he has to hearfrom my trick knee before he makesany plans for the day. Reckon he. knows I get tolerable lonesome with no pne to yarn to. Reckon he’s gota heart as big as ail outdoors, thatTony." -cJanet shook her head- M’ve givenup trying to<figuye Tony Ryan out”’At that moment a new and veryglittering closed car drove up to thegate. Deke in a resplendent chauf­feur's uniform was at the wheel. Hegot out and with a flourish usheredJanet and Mr. Jacoby into the car.It was a crisp blue and gold Au­gust afternoon. The lawn at the oldhouse flashed like emeralds as theydrove in.Tony Ryan in* immaculate whlft-s “I'm tflannels was standing in the door- Priscilla, way with Stephen Hill. "Hi. Mr.JacoBy. how’s the boy?” cried Tony.He came forward And wrung MrJacoby’s hand.Shortly after more guests began to-dribble in. Janet stood betweenTony and Steve Hill just inside the•front parlor. Priscilla and her crowdiwere late in arrivingIt was then Janet that the guests presented a curiousassortment. Dcke had driven up notonce, but twice, with the closed car.He brought first a little, dried-upold lady with a bright inquisitiveface. •"How are you, Mrs. Delanceyl”cried Tony Ryan. "Sure it’s swell tosee you!" -Mrs. Delancey patted his arm."One of my oldest and best friends, Mrs. Kate Delancey,” saidTony to Janet.“Pleased to meetcha, love," mur­mured the old Irishwoman.Janet could not see the guestwhom Horace was admitting, butshe recognized Priscilla’s triumphantvoice."Tony," she was saying, "thehouse is gorgeous! Darling, I can’t think of a lovelier time to announceour engagement."Something inside Janet seemed tobe tearing itself loose from theroots. It was no news that Priscillaand Tony were going to be married.Janet had understood as much fromthe first. Yet to hear their engage­ment put into words in a formal an­nouncement was something she feltincapable of facing.Janet and Stephen Hill withoutconspicuous success attempted tounite the various cliques. Janet wentover and chatted with the Earl ofJersey for whom she was achievingan affection. Tony was talking toRufe when Janet with Mrs. Delan­cey clinging to her arm approachedMrs. Henry Leigh.“This is one of Tony's oldestfriends," said Janet. “I thoughtyou’d like the privilege of takingher in to tea."Mrs. Leigh coldly surveyed theawful spectacle of the old Irishwo­man’s hat. "Sorry,” murmured Pris­cilla’s mother loftily. “I’m not hav­ing tea till later.”Kate Delancey’s Celtic temperrose to the bait. “Faith,” quoth she,“I canremember, Jennie, when you’dhave fainted all over your father’sbutcher shop if some one had of­fered ye tea in the middle of theafternoon."Mrs. Leigh turned purple andJanet, suppressing a grin, took Mrs.Delancey in to tea . herself. *Tonyjoined them in the dining room.Like a majestic ship Mrs. HenryLeigh approached the tea table heard.” she said in a choked voice,“I am not wearing my heart awayfor Gordon Key or any other man."Tony grinned. He had drawnsomething out of his pocket. Hekept idly juggling it back and forthin his hand. “Love isn’t that important," con­tinued Janet compressing her lips.“You sound disillusioned.”"I ami" cried Janet with a littlesob.He tossed up the shining objectin one hand and caught it in theother, “you think life's a matter oidollars tnd cents?" he inquired."Yes,” said Janet. “All that glit­ters may not be gold, but it's theonly glitter that doesn’t rub off."“In that case," murmured TonyRyan, "maybe you'd like to marryme for my money.”She could not speak. She couldnot even get her breath.He smiled at her. “Catch," hesaid.He tossed the glittering object ather. Her hand closed on it involun­tarily. It was a superb diamondmagnificently set in a platinum bandwith emeralds."I’ve got a house," said Tony.“It's a nice house, but it needs amistress. In a way, it's more yourhouse than anyone’s.”She was staring at the ring, thering which he had bought for Pris­cilla before she walked out on him,*or so Janet told herself.“I've heard of trial marriages,"said Tony Ryan. "Shall we have atry at being engaged?" He grinned. “It might come out even."“Why not?” she demanded, andslipped the diamond onto her fin­ger. » Miss Helen Sanders and herfather arrived the next morning ateleven-forty. Jim met the train.Helen, lovelier than ever in a sheerblack traveling dress with peach-colored accessories, flung herself in­to his arms while her father stoodabout on one foot and then theother waiting for her raptures tosubside."I’ve got the old flivver here."said Jim.

W. Beaton, national •ecretary of the war services com­ mittee. The total cost of these build­ ings in Canada, in addition to the cost of establishing hostels, red tri­ angle clubs and Y.M.C.A. military facilities in permanent buildings has exceeded $<>0,000, Major Beaton added. The possibility of greatly extended activity as a result of national regis­ tration and the changed military situ­ation was discussal, by Major Beaton who declareu that the building of ad-tditional huts may be necessary as more thousands of young Canadians go into training. At the present time modern, specially designed huts are in operation at Macauley Camp, B.C., Camp Shilo, Man., Camff Borden, Camp Barriefield, and Petawawa, Ontario, nnd Valcartier, Quebec. Each hut can accommodate a battal­ ion of men for a meal and is equipped with concert, movie or lecture halls, quiet rooms for reading and writing, and chapels for chaplains ana head­ quarters established for athletic and sports programs of the various camps. • • • Services of the Canadian Y.M C. A. to sailors of the British and Can­ adian navies, as well as to men of the mercantile marine, has been greatly augmented since the first of the year, according to reports from the war services committee of the asso­ ciation.

In some of the factories of The Canadian National Institute for the Blind there are blind workmen en­ gaged on producation of materials needed in the war, and in some of the soldiers' camps, there are blind men working in refreshment stands. There are blind women knitting socks, scarves, helmets and sweaters for the use of soldiers and sailors on active service. The blind men and women are doing what they can to aid the war effort, but, of course, not all blind workers can be employed on war work, and there are many who are unable to work, but who, war or no war, must live and must be_ supplied with the services which make life tolerable for them. For many years the exhibit of The Canadian National Institute for the Blind has been one of the most inter­ esting features at the Canadian Na­ tional Exhibition This year, when the management of the great nation­ al show show decided that the fair could be held as usual, The Canadian National Institute for Ufe Blind was’ notified that the usual space in the Engineering Building had been allot­ ted to it. So, when the C.N.E. opens its gates on August 23, the east end of the Engineering Building will once more be occupied by the dis­ plays and demonstrations which the public have found so fascinating in former years. It is the aim of the Institute to ^present to the public as comprehen­ sive a picture of all the activities of blind people as it is possible to por­ tray fey working demonstrations and displays of manufactured articles. Visitors to the “Village of the Blind” at the C.N.E. will have an opportun­ ity to see blind men and women em­ ployed in the making of brooms, bas­ kets, mops, aprons, dresses, mats and all the products which bear the name “Blindcraft.'' There will be a display of Braille books and Talking Book machinas and Braille writing. Blind musicians and blind stenographers will demonstrate their skill and some blind workers who are employed in ordinary industrial plants, will oper­ ate the machines at which they earn their living. At* all times during the progress of the C.N.E., members of the staff of The Canadian National Institute for the Blind will be on hand to give any information desired to interested visitors. The C.N.I.B. exhibit is un­ usual, illuminating, educational; de­ signed to give the general public some idea of how greatly work for the blind has progressed in Canada during.the past quarter of a century; it is one of the things well worth see­ ing at the Canadian National Exhi­ bition, August 23-September 7.

The children enjoyed paddling and the older ones took advantage of the '■rater for swimming. Sports and scrambles were the order of the day, tapped by a tug-of-war between the ladies and gents, the ladies proving easy winners. The committee in charge were complimented for the arrangements made for the comfort of all. Britain Wants All Cheese It Can Get Since it is definitely known that the British Ministry of Food wants all the Canadian cheese it is possible to get, some of the inducements to encourage cneese production were outlined to the Dominion-Provincial Agricultural Conference held in Ot­ tawa, July 18 to 20, by Joseph Bur­ gess, Dairy Products Division, Dom­ inion Department of Agriculture. There could be a general increase in milk production to help the output of cheese in Canada, he said, by sup­ plementary feeding of green feed when pastures are short through the use of coarse grains now fed to other farm animab; prohibiting the export of cattle and cheese factories re­ maining open later in the season. The present agreement with the British. Ministry of Fqod in respect to cheese is for the export of 78,- 400,000 lb. of Canadian chedder cheese manufactured up to the end of November, 1940, but more than this will be gladly accepted, accord­ ing to intimations from the Ministry received by the Dairy Products Board, which arranges for the export of the cheese. No intimation has been received from Great Britain that Canadian butter is wanted. Indications are that the production of creamery butter will be ample for Canadian require­ ments.

Proper cooking is essential, of course, to retain every' bit of the delicate flavor of the chick­ en. A moderate cooking temperature for broiling, frying and for roasting is the secret of tender, juicy chicken, beautifully browned. The flavours of bacon fat and but­ ter are particularly geod companions of chicken, and are well worth com­ bining. Here are the cooking methods sug­ gested by the Consumer Section, Marking Service, Dominion De­ partment of Agriculture: Broiled Chicken Select broilers weighing I Mi to 2 pounds. Split down the back, clean and sprinkle with salt Pre-heat broiler rack for 10 minutes. Place broilers, skin side down, on greased broiler rack, about 3 inches from heat. Brush with butter and broil 15 to 20 minutes. Turn. Brush skin side with butter and broil about 15 minutes longer, until birds are nicely browned and tender. Oven-Cooked Broiler* Select broilers weighing 1 ‘a *to 2 pounds. Split down the back, clean and sprinkle with salt. Place on a greased rack in shallow baking pan, skin side down. Brush with butter and cook in a, moderate oven, 350 de­ grees Fahrenheit, for 25 minutes. Turn and cook for 20 minutes, or un­ til birds are tender.

She is the examination vessel of the Royal Canadian Navy and to dis­ obey her warning to stop would bring a hail of shrieking steel from the ever-ready muzzles of coastal bat­ teries concealed among the pleasant green foliage of the shoreline. In many ways; it is a monotonous job for the crew of the little craft,' lying at anchor day in and day out while fog lifts and falls and the fret­ ful winds of the North Atlantic moan through the rigging and pluck at the special signal flag of the ex­ amination service that flies from the mast. But often it is an extremely busy job; when ship after ship comes up from beyond the horizon', some­ times at the rate of more than one an hour. Each new-comer reaching the range of the signal lamp aboard the examination vessel is greeted by a : series of'winks and blinks that in­ forms him. he is to stand by to re­ ceive an examining officer. Occas­ ionally, by accident or design, in­ coming vessels have ignored the sig­ nals, only to receive a much more pointed order in the shape of a light shell across the bow from a coastal gun crew that has been sitting with itchy^ trigger fingers ever since war began. When the incoming vessel hoves to, the boarding party leaves tho examination craft in a small boat and rows to the side of the visitor. For the next few minutes the board­ ing officer is closeted with the ship’s officers while papers are produced and carefully inspected. If everything is in good order, the boarding officer returns to the ex» amination, vessel and the "O.K.” sig­ nal starts its rounds. Within a few moments every officer in charge of the defences of the port knows who the visitor is and all about him. It is then, and only then, that the anti­ submarine gates are swung open and the visiting vessel is allowed to pass into the sheltered harboufr. Despite the grim necessities of war, courtesy characterizes the ex­ amination process. It is a brand of politeness that is at all times associat­ ed with naval men.

SHADOWS See that the shadows are properly Illuminated In your summer snapshotsof people. Here, a bright, sunlit sidewalk reflects light up under the hatbrim, and helps gldfe shadow detail. AS l i S g U ht M in M g E o R n s a u p n p n r y o a d c a h y e s s , b o e u c t o d m oo e r ^ more and more contrasty. The sun­ shine Is brighter, the blue sky does not reflect as much light as a graywinter sky — and in consequence, shadows tend to appear stronger and blacker in your pictures. Of course, Jn some pictures you want strong black shadows to cre­ate a desired pictorial effect But in most pictures—and especially snapshots of people—you want de­tail in all the features. Certainlyyou do not desire deep shadows around the eyes, nose, and lower lip—for these make a person al­ most unrecognizable.To avoid such shadows, or get detail in them, there are several methods. The simplest is to placeyour subject in open shade—not under tree*—facing the clear sky. Then give about double the average"sunshine” exposure—say 1/25 sec­ ond at f/8 lens opening, on average speed film on a bright sunny day. A second method is to use reflec­tors, or place your subject where there are natural reflecting objects. For example, in the picture above,a light-colored concrete .sidewalk £ reflects quite a bit of light up underlighting on sunny days become^ the subject’s bat brim. Excellent reflectors'can be madereadily. A white card, or one cov­ ered with crumpled tinfoil, serves nicely for small areas. A whitesheet also will do. Backlighting is another device—really a variation of the "open shade” method.

G. Murray in thechair. There were no communica­tion* but a number of accounts were read. The Finance, Board of Works, Po­ lice and Indigent, Fire, Water and Light, Direct Relief and Market Com­ mittees presented reports. These recommended the payment of ac­ counts and authorized several cheques that had been issued since the last meeting. All committee re­ ports were adopted as read. Mayor Murray commented upon the fact that the account of the town from the Oxford Children’s Aid So­ ciety was about forty dollars lower for .last month than on former occas­ ions. On motion of Councillors Clark and Morrison, the mover introduced a by-law to regulate the use of lo­ comotive ‘bells and whistles by trains passing through the town, between the hours of 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. The by-law which was given two readings and passed in committee of the whole provides for a penalty of $10 and cos£ for the first offence and 325.00 and cost for each subsequent offence for the unnecessary sound­ ing of whistles and bells between the hours of 11 p.m. and 6 a.m., and for the sounding of whistles between those hours at crossings that are pro­ tected by gates or wig wag signals. Mayor Murray mentioned that there had been several complaints about the whistling of trains at nights and that was the reason for the introducing of the by-law. Coun- .cillor Clark said there had been cases drawn to his attention where whistles had been blown for a min­ute and a half to two minutes straight, and this was very disturbing late at night. Councillor Morrison said he did not believe that those in charge of trains would particularly “ingle out Ingersoll as a place to blow their whistle and that they would not blow the whistles unless as a safety measure. After some further1 discussion the by-law was passed and it will be forwarded to the Board of Railway Commissioners of Canada for final approval before given its third reading and finally adopted. Councillor Morrison drew attention to the fact that there was no stop sign at the comer of Dufferin street, where it entered Thames street south and expressed the belief that one should be placed there as a safety measure because of the amount of traffic to the hospital. Councillor. Underwood, chairman of the police committee, said that he , appreciatedJhe suggestion and would see to it that a stop 'sigh was placed there. Councillor George Prestom again introduced the matter of getting lower gas rates for the town and en­ quired if anything hafl been heard as yet from Brantford regarding the information the Brantford delegates promised to secure for Ingersoll. Clerk McNiven informed Mr. Pres­ ton that nothing had been heard as yet and Mayor Murray explained that he had tried on several occasions to get the information necessary but had' been unsuccessful. There was considerable discussion on this mat­ ter and a committee composed of: George Preston, Archie Clark, -K. R, Daniel and W. R. Marshall, Xvas named by the mayor to visit Brant­ ford and secure such information as possible to get from facts and fig. ures that were collected several yearsago. Councillor Morrison enquired in regards to a request from the officials : of the Crumlin Air Field requesting the town to paint the standpipe in U checker board color of black and white as its silver color was danger­ ous to fliers when in this vicinity, travelling at a low altitude. Mayor Murray replied that the matter had been considered and passed at a meeting of the Ingersoll Public Utili­ ties -Commission on Tuesday after­ noon.
