RECRUITING UNIT TO VISIT INGERSOLL The Royal Canadian Air Force has recently inaugurated what is called a “Mobile Recruiting Plan." Seventeen “mobile" units throughout Canada operate from their Recruit­ ing Centres and regularly visit cities and towns in the district for the pur­ pose of interviewing those who are interested in joining the R. C. A. F. Two chief factors prompted this move. The first of these was to ob­ tain a greatly increased number of potential airmen and skilled trades­ men; the other was to eliminate the necessity of prospective • recruits travelling long distances to an R.C.A. F. Recruiting Centre. Gearing of the air training centres •f Canada to high speed made it necessary to have on file a greatly augmented number of prospective recruits. These are divided into two ciasses: The Air crews, which include pilots and observers, air gunners and wireless operators, and tradesmen, including aero-engine mechanics, air- * frame mechanics, instrument mak­ ers, radio mechanics, cooks, fabric workers and other skilled tradesmen. Age limit requirements for pilots are 18 to 30 inclusive, and applicants must have Junior Matriculation or equivalent; observers, age 18 to 31 inclusive, Junior Matriculation; wire­ less operators, air gunners, 16 to 31 inclusive, two years high school. Married men are acceptable in the trades but not for air crews.at the present time. Age limit for trades­ men is 16 to 45 years, and qualifica­ tions are high school entrance and at least a working knowledge of the trade. All applicants presenting them­ selves for enlistment should be able to^>roduce proof of age, proof of education and two letters of refer­ ence frm parties, addressed to the R.C.A.F. Married applicants should have their marriage certificate and proof of age of all children. An interviewing officer will be at the council chamber in the town hsll m Ingersoll, bn Friday, January 17, between 12 noon and 8 p.m. Any young man interested in the Air. Force is invited to visit the Council Chamber while the recruiting officer is here. S E E T H ES E ! Fords, Chev's and Dodges INGERSOLL AUTO ELECTRIC FLEISCHER & JEWETT, Limiled Wednesday Half Holidays •> Commenced Yesterday - An announcement appears in this week’s issue of The Tribune over the signature of a number of Ingersoll’s merchants informing the public that they have agreed to conform with the grocers, butchers, barbers, beauty parlors, medical men'and dentists in observing the Wednesday half holi­ days for the months of January to November inclusive, excepting weeks in which public holidays occur. There is to be an exception however in the case of the clothing stores. These will not close in October, November or December. Every year for some time past there has been a general disagree­ ment among the merchants as to the months in which they will observe the Wednesday half holidays. This has been confusing to many of the coun­ try people who come here to shop and find only some of the stores open. The list of names in the ad­ vertisement have signed the agree­ ment to close as stated and it is un­ derstood that a number of other mer­ chants as well are planning to fall in line. A. W. Smith, Beachvilie Resident, Passe* Away The death occurred in Alexandra Hospital, IngersoJL.on Sunday even­ ing, January-ri^h,1941, of A. W.

FOR LAST TIME Meeting Held Monday Morn­ ing Was Followed By Gath­ ering of 1941 Council. In view of the fact that there will be no change in the personnel of the Council for the town of Inger­ soll in 1941 over that of last year, the usual formalities and partings were dispensed with at the last meet­ ing of the 1940 council held in the council chamber Monday morning at 10 o’clock.

J. G. MURRAY MAYOR OF INGERSOLL FOR 1941 Following is the text o£-the inaug­ ural address read by Mayor Dr. James Garfield Murray, at the inaug­ ural meeting of the Municipal Coun­ cil of the Corporation of the Tow^, of Ingersoll, for the year 1941, held in the council chamber of the town hall on Monday evening, January 6: Ingersoll, Ont., January 6, 1941 The Members of the 1941 Council and the CUtaens of IngersoU: Once more we enter upon a new year with the same faces around the council table. To the electors of Ingersoll are should like to express our appreciation of the confidence they have placed in w, in allowing us to serve them for another year and promise that we rfmll do it to the best of our ability. I want to thank the council members for their eo-ep- cration faring 1940 and ean only hope that we may enjoy the same happy aWriatsons during 1041- These are very trouMous days, when our beloved British Empire is fighting for her very exbteDce.

Our population has increased to the highest pon it has ever reached. To all new comVs to the town, we extend. a hearts welcome and hopethey may d«ci(B tcT make Ingersoll their ptraaanentrhomc. Some M our factories are running night and'day, giving employment to a gre*«/many men and women, bringing our relief problems down to the minimum. We feel that the greatest handicap to the program of our town is our sewerage bjstem, making it impoaa- ibis to procure new industries and preventing many people from coming here to live. We think that our first big project after we have won the war, must b« to install a modern and ■unitary sewerage system. This would be a good investment, paying big dividends in better health for our citterns and greater,growth to the town. ? Some of our streets are in bad condition and must receive attention this year. Any other work that we feel neeosaary, will be done, but nothing big will be attempted now. To all the cittasna of the town, we would wish a Happy «nd ircsprrnua New Your, and for ow Empire. *• wish greater sad greater mttwaM, kedinv to ultimate victory.Aammcttnlly itatonBtod- J.

In sixteen months, a peace-loving people of twelve millions has been transformed into a nation united in determination to pursue the war to a finish. A Canadian Army Corp awt its in the United King­ dom its call to the Front’Line. Canadian airmen have fought in the Battle of London. Canadian naval vessels are patrolling Great Brtiain’s life-line of the sea. Three Canadian contingents and one Australian contingent of graduates under the Empire Air Trail­ ing Plan have already arrived in Great Britain from Canada. The Canadian Navy which, at the outbreak of war, consisted of only 15 vessels, now has 120 naval craft. Within a year, 100 vessels will be added. Foodstuffs, ammunitions, guns, aircraft, motorised equipment with a great variety of other equipment, are, pouring across the Atlantic in every-increasing stream. And, in the economic field, Canada is contributing as she could not contribute in the Great War of 1914- 18. Economic activity in Canada is at a higher/level than ever recorded before. In the first ten months of 1940,it rose 19.4 per cent over the level for the cor­ responding period of 1939. Dominion Bureau of Statistics returns show the highest level of industrial employment in 20 years. War orders placed for Canadian account alone total more than $390,000,000. Fifty-five main airporta have been constructed. Canada is turning out guns, •hells, ammunition, (bombs, airplanes, components for tanks. Canada has become one of the great industrial nations of the world. Chief sources of her indus­ trial strength are her farm lands, her abundance of cheap electrical power, her forest wealth, her wealth of metals and minerals. Her mining and metallurgical industries have be­ come leading world producers of copper, nickel, lead and zinc—four of the most /tssh^tial war minerals—- and of asbestos and platinurtj. They produce • large quantifies of such other minerals1 essential to indus­ trial use as coal, petroleurfL natu/al gas, gypsum, salt, cobalt, mica, sulphur, selenhun/and cadmium as well aa cement, day products and other structural mater­ ials. Owing to its abundance of cheap electrical power, Canada is a leading producer of aluminum, the most essential of warplane metals. likewise, the Dominion is listed among the chief producers of gold and silver. Canada's 1940 production of gold alone is ..estimated at $200,000,000; and in providing credits for war purchases abroad, gold production b of prime consequence. , Canada’s total mineral production for 1940 is es­ timated at an all-time record of $500,000,000. Ten mine products, all of the greatest importance in national waf economy, contributed 90 per cent. They were coppet, nickel, lead, zinc, gold, silver, the plat­ inum metals, coal, petroleum and natural ga*. Canadian development of base metal production has provided a large reservoir of vital- war metab requiring the minimum of ocean shipping for deliv­ ery to the British armament industries. It conserves Empire foreign exchange by reducing the purchases of these metals which would otherwise have to be made from neutral countries. Because of low-production coats, it conserves the financial resources pf the Empire. ,. Thus, Canada drives ahead. Axis Invincibility: Exploded Legend Without wishful thinking it jm now possible to dis­ cern tangible evidences that the aggressive diplomacy of the Triple Axis, ba<<i on ioice and lacking a ■ingle guiding star of universal validity, is far from invincible. Consider the cumulative force of the fol­ lowing Axis reverses: Escape of the British Army from Flanders, Failure to destroy the Royal Air Fores.

They , have successfully carried through a colossal expansion of output in order to supply the Services with 20,000,- 000 pairs of boots during the year and in addition they have amply met the demand from civilians at home and overseas. The increase in output is estimated at 50 per cent. Hides have been ship­ ped to Britain from 60 overseas ports to meet it, a big proportion of thenr from the enormous cattle resources of the Empire, put at 40 per cent, of the world’s total livestock. South America has provided anoth­ er vast war-time reservoir. Argentina, with its 60,000,000 cattle on the hoof, has sent consignment after consignment of hide* of high quality thanks to the increasing care of ^Ar­ gentine cattle and to the scientific methods which have ibeen introduced into flaying proce^es. Uruguay, Col­ ombia and Brazil have all of them sent welcome cargoes across the At­ lantic too. Working tanners have speeded up production by intensifying their mechanical and scientific methods and the British Sole Leather Tanners’ Association has planned production in a practical way to prevent violent price fluctuations. The resulting output has not only allowed Britain to have 409,000 pairs of Service boots a week, but in the midst of tbe war British tanners are now export­ ing sole leather made to suit the clim­ ate* of many markets overseas. 25,000,000 BOTTLE CAPS Twenty-five million metallic bottle caps have been sent overseas by a single firm in England during the first twelve months of the war. IV is more than twice the number ex­ ported by them the year before. Of this total, 20,000,000 caps went to countries outside the British Commonwealth, among them Turkey, Costa Rica, Honduras, Peru, Venez­ uela, Ecuador and Chile. The bottle caps, which are gum­ med inside, are produced by auto­ matic stamping direct from the metal band, making them so flexible that they can be fixed tightly over any kind of bottle closure, effectively sealing it from either waste or pilfer­ ing. BRITAIN'S 1941 RAINBOW New fashion colours for next spring and summer have now been chosen by the British Colour Council and sent out by them to all the Do­ minions, the two Americas, Switzer­ land,'Sweden and Batavia. They give suggestion* for wool, knitwear, silk, layon and leather. A special range has been selected for millinery, including Harbour Blue in tribute to the Navy and the R. A. F. There are two new greys, Silver Cloud ami Smoke Grey: a new dress colour called Greenshadow; Rhythm Blue, an unusual peacock; Amethyst Cloud for summer frocks; Comman­ der Blue for shoe*; Dramatic Red for glove*. Othef names are Sweet Corn, French Wine, Grey Dawn, Col­ onial Brown, Nymph Green, Breton Blue and Gypsy Red. For th* first time a chart has been issued showing starred costume col­ ours in wool cloth with shoe and glove colours to harmonise. In ieeent months many congratutatione have reached the British Colour Council from, the Dominions and America, on the excellence of the colours sponsor­ ed for the fashion trade.

The so-called Old World is setting an example in strength and character tha£ could never b4 gained from'’speed-cars, . streqnvliifcd en­ gines,' automatic ‘stokers and refrig­ erators or th* many inventions with which we are wont to connnect civ­ ilization. We are learning that civil­ ization is of the spirit, and the spirit can never become mechanized. It is S spirit of th* British people that er fenri. most, for his most ily weapons are directed against that. It is our firm belief that as gregt courage and fortitude would be dis­ played by the people of this Contin­ ent under similar circumstances. I hey have it in them. For that reason it is <11 the more distressing to hear it said that one cannot work for the Red-Cross; that It is imposwbie to pleas^lhose In authority. Such gn admission for a Canadian woman to make! Shades of our pion­ eers! The women of Zorra, of Sel­ kirk, of Acadia, of Niagara! How glad they would have been if life had offered them no greater problem than that of mastering th* grafted toe, a mug-fitting helmet'or a cqm- forteble hospital gown.. C*n'-We’do less?

Heavy en­ gagements disrupt services, with tiansportation for only the most important supplies. It will readily be seen that even the slightest uneven­ ness, the smallest lump is apt to be­ come painful when endured for so long. ‘ One might sleep comfortably in their dwn bed in a badly-cut gown, in ill-fitting pyjamas. It is a differ­ ent matter for pain-racked bodies to do so. Everything possible must be done for their comfort. It is hardly, reasonable either to claim that most Red Cross equipment could be bet­ ter turned out by factories. Canadian factories are already working at cap­ acity, and the installation of mach­ inery for greater output wou)d en­ tail a tremendous outlay of money and materials. Nor would the prob-. faulty work. But don’t we all want just such opportunities. Let it be remembered, it is pos­ sible to satisfy the Red Cross. The thousands of articles shipped Over­ seas, as well as the quantities used m Canada, show that many workers can and do meet' the requirements. There is reason for community pride in the fact that- not a angle article - made in Ingersoll or the surround­ ing district has been returned from Headquarters.'It can be done.

I myself feel that without that ever- recurring and startling change in feminine headgear, this world, sad enough as it is, would lack its one big perennial joke. I like hats; these funny fantastic bits of felt or straw and wisps of this and that; 1 like the entrancing models in the hat-shops. I’ve never plucked up the courage to stand and staie as I'd delight to do, but I do slow up and saunter by and furtively gaze to iee what’s new in the hat­ world oi woman. I am fascinated by the calm docii.ty of the highly paint­ ed faces and the u-tonishingly curled eyelashes under the ridiculous bits of frippery.

Not that men have been at times backwards in coming forwards in the real of things satorial. How about the.gay cavaliers for instance, with their fine feathers and finer laces; and what forsooth about the once so fashionable top-hat? Was anything ever created for the female of the specie* that for utter ridicu­ lousness, equalled that piecq of male foppery? Could any small boy, any­ where, resist a desire to shy a sur­ reptitious snowball at that comical cylinder of shining smugness? Could any lad of any sense whatever, fail to Bee in it the depths, no the height*, of degradation to which his aspiring manhood might be brought, assum­ ing he lived long enough and was wealthy enough to sport this'visible, this all too visible, symbol of the haute monde? Why a hat, anyway? Is it intend­ ed as a protection against the ele­ ments?

The infant had been sick for sev­ eral days and.was being treated by its mother. A pill it was taking be­ came lodged in its windpipe. Two doctors were called and an emer­ gency operation was performed by making an incision in the throat to insert a tube so that it might breathe. It was immediately rushed to the hospital in a grave condition, com­ plications developed and the infant passed away Tuesday evening. It was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Rutherford who had only recently moved to Ingersoll from the Straf- fordville district. The sympathy of the community is extended to the parents in their sad bereavement > Richard H. Wilson of Folden’s Corners, Passes One of West Oxford Townships oldest residents, Richard Henry Wil­ son, dearly (beloved husband of Mar­ garet A. Arthur, passed away at his residence, Folden’s Corners, on Thurajjyzlnbrning, January 2nd. Al­ though he had been in poor health for several years, he was seriously ill only about a week. Deceased was born in West Oxford Township and was in his 85th year. He had been a lifelong resident of the Folden’s district. He was a member of the Folden’s United Church and served as an elder for many years. As long as his health permitted he was a regular attendant at church services. Deceased was highly esteemed and had a wide circle of friends. Besides his wiijow he is survived by two daughters, Mrs. W. N. Thorn­ ton, Woddstock, and Mrs. Ralph Fol- den, Folden’s Corners; one son, Lome Wilson, Folden’s (Jpmers; one sister, Sarah Smith, West Ox­ ford, and two brothers, R. A.

'Cumming of Salford, minister of the Folden’s United Church, assisted by Rev, H. A. Edwards of tne Salford Baptist Church. During the service, Mrs. Wesley Osmond sang a vocal solo, “No Night There’’, accompanied at the piano by Mrs. Harold Harrison. The funeral was-very largely at­ tended and the many lovely floral pipces were tribute of the esteem of a wide circle of fiends and ac­ quaintances.

Until quite recently the blood used was required to be froni* persons of the same blood type as that of the recipient, that is, if the latter’s blood was Of Type A, the blood of the donor must also be of Type A. Noj^ thanks, to researches made in the Connaught Laboratories, Tor­ onto, by the physiologist there, Dr. Charles Best, and his associates, a new and much simpler product is come into general use. This is the dried serum or plasma of the blood. Dr. Best has been sending this dried blood plasma overseas .for the.last year. Plans are now undeMvay for an extensive supply, and in order to facilitate the provision for this sup­ ply, blood is being called for from 2000 donors. Fluid blood, in what is known as blood banks, will keep only for about two weeks,. The plasma—the light colored fluid which rises' to the top of a collection of blood—is drawn off and-dried to a powder. This pow- der contains all-the requisites needed for transfusion. It keeps indefinitely and all that is necessary to make it teady for use is to add the 'proper amount 'of sterile water. The rttw product is convenient, readily trans­ ported' and the doctor using it may forget all he has learned about the form</r necessity of using blood only from a person with the same.type of blood ah the patient. Three months ago the Connaught laboratories obtained "a vacuum machine for making the powdered blood. This machine—the first of itskind in America—coat* >5000. By means of this machine the blood serum is rapidly separated from its contained water and dried in the frozen state. There will be no diffi­ culty in obtaining tbe-speeded 2000 donor*. The students of the Univer­ sity themselves will be able to pro­ vide a large number of donors. It is impossible to envisage th* import­ ance of this discovery to solditjy, sail­ ors and others who suffer from the consequences of war.—By John W. S. McCullough. MD, D.P.H. MOULDS IN FOOD Mould ^growth in foods is not usu­ ally dangerous. In many cases the formation of mould in food increases i s palaUbility. For example, soma kinds of cheese, such as Roquefort, Limburger, grie and Camembert, are are eaten only after extensive mould growth has taken place. The charac­ teristic flavour and smell of these cheeses are due to the substances formed by the particular tpecus of mould- What are moulds? They are groups ef- tiny plants. so small that the in­ dividual structures can be seen only with the aid of a microscope They develop from spore* which are sim­ ilar to the seeds of the higher plant* The spore is the reproductive ele­ ment of one of the lower organisms or plant*. The commoner .^moulds go by the names of Mueer, IVawdhum or As- pergtflus The white or slightly wool­ ly patches seen A the surface of meat m cold storage is due to a mould or fungus known as the spor- otrichum earn is. The spores or seeds of moulds are hard to kill; they can withstand un­ favourable conditions for days and when given favourable conditions buch as food, a temperature neither too hot nor too cold, moisture and in some cases oxygen, will live for a long ^me. Mould on top of jams, jellies and preserves is unsightly but not harm­ ful and the same is true of mould* on bread and other foods. Mould growth may be prevented by main­ taining foods at medium tempera­ tures, and by keeping them free from moisture. Home-made sausage may be kept from moulding by dip­ ping the sausage in melted fat. When cool, the fat forms an imper­ vious coating and resist, the growth of mould. At a recent White House confer­ ence on Children in Democracy, it was decided that; “School health supervision, health and safety educa­ tion should be made more effective, so as to protect the health of the child and to give him better under- | standing of the principle and prac­ tices of social and community hy­ giene.” It was also urged that the educa­ tion of teachers include study of the principles of child development, ac­ cording to a report issued by the Canadian School Journal. That these recommendations might apply to the Dominion as well as to the United States, is shown by the experience of one Canadian city whose Medical Officer of Health re­ cently asserted that of all deaths from tuberculosis in the past year, 34 per cent were among children of high school age. Most of the cases, he declared, were the result of either too vigorous indulgence in athletics, insufficient rest or “burning the candle at both ends.’’ , Educational and health authorities in the Dominion were reported today to be considering Jthe suggestion* out­ lined in the Washington conference. The evacuation of children from dangerous zones in the British Isles— that is, from the large industrial cities—was undertaken with yonsid- eiable trepidation lest a wide spread of contagious disease result. These fears have proved ground­ less, largely because of the precau­ tions taken bj^public health officers, and qf the consistent campaign of education on health and hygiene which has been carried on in Britain in recent years. It la noted with satisfaction that, while children removed from over populated areas have improved in health as a reeult of their new en­ vironments, rural children have in no way suffered as a result of contact with their city friends.

It is a scheme (to help the lads retain their fighting spirit and\o maintain their home attachments. On January 4, at 3.00 p.m., E.D.T. the Legion , began broadcasting through Wide World Broadcasting Foundation’s short-wave station WRUL^Bopton, a weekly half-hour program called “News from Home.’’ Carrying the sob-title “The Canad­ ian Legion’s Weekly Broadcast to <J1U ,„UK „ procure xooo*. Canada’s Fghting Men Overseas,’ the ^These foods supply very little of the program was the first of a series , being presented each Saturday after­ noon. They are made up of news 1 gathered from all parts of the Dom­ inion and featpre as well messages from parents, wives and sweethearts. Much of the news broadcast is of local interest, not sufficiently import­ ant to be cabled abroad by the Can­ adian Preas but important enough to interest the men. The Canadian Broadcasting Cor­ poration is co-operating with the Legion in making the programs possible by placing its studio and recording facilities at the Legn ion’s disposal. Discs of the broadcasts are prepared a few days in advance, shipped by air mail to Boston and short-waved from WRUL to England. The British Broadcasting Corporation has agreed, to rebroadcast them on long-wave so that the programs will be available to ordinary receiving sets throughout the British Isles and Iceland. Troops overseas have been notified • of the broadcasts and the military authorities are assisting the Legion in assuring that the maximum num­ ber of men will be able to hear them. The undertaking has the offic­ ial approval of the Department of Natio'nal Defence and the warmest support of Lieut;-General A. G. L. McNaugthon, Commander of the Canadian Corps in the Old Country.

SALADA T E A Fruits In The Diet (Science Service News) ■Fruits may be classed with veget­ ables and milk as protective foods. energy requirements of the body but have other valuable properties. They help to keep the human system functioning properly and correct de­ ficiencies of diets largely composed of meats and starchy foods. Fruits in general are similiar in chemical composition to vegetables and both are valuable sources of vit­ amin C, states J. T. Janson, Division of Chemistry, Science service, Dom­ inion Department of Agriculture. This vitamin is best known as the anti-scurvy vitamin, but recent re­ search indicates that deficiency of this vitamin is a factor in a number of human ailments. While the citrus fruits, oranges and grapefruit, and tomatoes, are recommended as the most reliable fri^ts to provide ade­ quate intake of vitamin C, other fruits, including black currants and strawberries, are excellent sources.. The vitamin C content of apples varies considerably in different var- i ieties, but this fruit is generally con­ sidered a fair source of vitamin C. It has been found that the tissue im­ mediately next to the peel has the highest content, so that there is an advantage in eating'apples unpeeled. Vitamin C is readily destroyed by oxidation or exposure to air. Modem commercial canning- practice retains most of the vitamin in canned fruits. Dried fruits generally have little vitamin C potency. Fruits are the chief source of the alkali salts of the organic acids, malic arid citric. These salts correct acid reactions in the body, caused by the consumption of proteins and starches, and have mild laxative properties. Recent biochemical research indi- Cates that pectin has valuable col­ loidal properties which assist the pro­ cesses of digestion. Fruits in general provide the best source of pectin, al­ though the amouqt and qqality varies considerably in different fruits. Pec- hn usually reaches its -maximum as. to- quantity and quality at maturity. Apples are notable Both for the qual­ ity and quantity dn pectin and are one of the best sources ofj^^aater- ial. Fruits stimulate the skin and kidneys and help to keep the natural processes of the body functioning properly. They should be served either raw or cooked at least once daily.
