NAGLE THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE LEGION TO SPONSOR RAISING FUNDS FOR BRITISH VAR VICTIMS Service Club* and Other Local Organization* Are To Co­ operate. A well attended meeting of repre­ sentatives of the Service Clubs and other organizations .of the town was held on Sunday afternoon in the new Canadian Legion building on Water street. The chairman of the gathering was the president of the Ingersoll Branch of the Legion, Fred Funnel!, and the purpose of the gath­ ering was explained as for raising money for the British War Victims Fund to supplement the $700.00 contribution voted by the Ingersoll War Charitie* last week. The organizations represented at the meeting included the Canadian Legion, the Town Council, the Inger­ soll War Charities, the Kiwanis Club, the Lions Club, the, Y’s Men’s Club, the Big Eight Society, the Ingersoll Pipe Band, Knights of Columbus, Ox­ ford Rifles Regiment and the Little „ Theatre Guild. A committee .was formed to draft plans and supervise the collection of funds. The Legion president, Fred Funnel!, was named as chairman, and Thomas J. Steele as secretary. The treasurer is R. W. Green; Fin­ ance Committee, S. A. Gibson, R. W. Green, Fred Funnell and Wm, ” Chaiton; press reporters, F. Appleby and Win. E. Challon. The meeting was unanimously the -opinion that contributions to this fund should not in any way affect regular donatons to the Ingersoll War Charitiesaand the press was re­ quested to ase the public to continue to give all possible financial support to the War Charities as that organiz­ ation had already made a substan­ tial contribution to the British War Victim* Fund. It was decided not to make a drive for contributions but to raise money by collection of junk, as auction sale, variety program concert and bingo game. The com­ mittees named to handle these var­ ious affairs were:Auction Sale—Sam. Douglas, Rob­ ert Wark, James Copeland. Concert—S. H. Underwood, How­ ard S- (Aseltine, Squire E -,— — - Alex.’ Collins. * _ Bingo game—John Brown, Major J* C. Herbert, Clifford Hines. It is expected that the Kiwanis Club will supervise the collection and sale of junk. Duplicate Bridge Club High Scores The Duplicate Bridge Club met on Monday evening at the Ingersoll Inn.

Wheeler Rev. R. Harold Parr Opens Ministry Here Dr. C. A. Osborn Returned A» President of Red Cross Society NOTICE Dorchettoi—For some weeks now, the topic of conversation among the residents of the village and district, and especially hunters, was the wolves which had been sighted, a number of times east of this village. One had been captured alive early in the fall and kept chained up for some time at the farm of Ray Ross. It was later killed when it began to get too ferocious to keep with safety. Since that time several drives-have been held to get some of the ones remaining at large and in all six have now been killed. County Treasurer John McLarty handed cheques totalling $60 bounty to Randolph Hunt and Roy Ross of Dorchester district There was talkof the bounty of the fifth j>elt going to the Red Cross. The wolves were killed at differ­ ent times during the past ’ few inonths.Though some suffers doubted that a pack of wolves was living so close, the Department of Game and Fisheries at Toronto^ has examined the pelts and pronouheed them brush wolves and authorized payment of the bounty. The Ontario Government will reimburse the county fqr 40 per cent of the money paid. Ro?s, Hunt, Angus Sutherland, Ed. Hum­ phrey of Dorchester, Roy Cl*rke of Uniondale and Alfred Besrti of Till- sonburg, are among the men who got in shots at the animals. Ross said that other men also got in shots at at least one of the animals which was killed. . The pack of wolves first put in an appearance around the Ross farm about four months ago. Sheep and fowl have fallen prey to them. The Government allowed the pelts to be letained by the men but slit each ani­ mal’s'nose so bounty cannot again be claimed on them. The farmers who live in the viciftj ity of where the wolves are.roaming, hope the remaining ones will soon be killed ns quite a number of them have already suffered losses. Ingersoll War Charitie* Budget Donation* WVVGj HUW* VMoyer and S’ A ’ Gibson in the chair. Represen­ tatives of ths Navy League of Can­ ada, and local delegations soliciting help for the Greek War Relief Fund and the British Bomb Victims Fund were present to u k support for these worthy objectives from the War Charities. A considerable time was spent in discussing and arriving at a budget for the disbursemerit of moneyk col­ lected, to the various organizations for their war work. It was finally decided to adopt , the following bud­ get based on the net receipts from the $25,009.00 pledged for the year by local citizens during the War Charities Canvass of the town last October: Canadian Red Cross Society-40 Y.M.C.A. War Services—18%. Salvation Army War Service*— 11%. . Canadian Legion War Services— b%, with a maximum of $1,000.00. Knight* of Columbus Army Hut* Fund—3% with a maximum of $600. LO.D.E. for XVar WoA—4% with a maximum of $800.00. Reserved for other War Charities —19%. This include* $700.00 to British Bomb Victim* Fund; $300.00 to Greek Wqr Relief and $500.00 to Navy League of 'Canada, which amounts were pawed at the meeting. ' Members of the Norsworthy Chap­ ter, I.O.DJB., are preparing to do ’ their full share towards supplying' comforts to the air raid victims in England. A number of garments, in- ’ eluding children’s dresses, pyjamas, jackets, ladies nightgowns and boys* knitted suits, have been purchased and were on display on Monday afternoon at the home of. Mrs. H. B. McKay, where the chapter held its first meeting of the new year. Supplementing these will be a num­ ber of children’s dresses being com­ pleted in the chapter’s Avorkroom and which will be ready for ship­ ment at an early date. (During the business session,' the regent, Mrs. R. G. Start, was in the cliair and one new member was wel­ comed, into the order. ..Letters of thaifics were received from the Missionary Circle of the King’s Daughters and the Welcome Circle of the King’s Daughters, for contributions given them toward* the Christmas Cheer baskets, and a $5 donation sent to iNasik hospital, In­ dia, was acknowledged in a letter which expressed deep gratitude for the continuance of the chapter's sup­ port. An interesting letter from provin­ cial headquarters was read, stressing every branch of war work. There is the need for even greater activity in a very pressing demand for blankets and warm clothing, for children and adult refugees, and field comforts are urgently needed, particularly scarves, at this time. j Donations of $5 each were, voted toward thp Lucy Morrison memorial fund and the Service Centre fund. The latter fund is to bemused to pro­ vide recreational and canteen' quar­ ters for the large group of men sta­ tioned near Truro, N. S. Total war work for November and December was reported by Mrs. L. A. Westcott.

A three-piece reconditioned rood suite, consisting of two chairs and a settee, was donated to the Woodstock training camp and some of the mem­ bers acted as hostesses at one of .the khaki dances. A special feature of the meeting was the topic given by Mrs. A. >-E. Lawrence, a most interesting study of Libya, so much in the news of the ; world today. __ A nominating committee was ap- , pointed to bring in a slate of officer* for 1941 at the February meeting. . A letter from Lieut Donald Macken- 1 zie was read in ^acknowledgement of , the parcel received from the chapter at Christmas. Assisting the hoatesa at the tea hour were Mrs. Dalton Smith, Mrs. L W’. Porter, Mrs. Charles Hoag and Mr*. R. G. Start. The Cook’s Corners’ Literary So- cety and a large number from the surrounding communities, gathered at Mr. and Mrs. Harry Wheeler’s, in honor of their son’s recent marriage. Mr. Ken. Foster and Miss Ruth Tur­ ner had charge of the evening and Mr. Basil Wilson was asked to be chairman. A splendid program as follows, was much enjoyed: "O Canada,” was sung, with Miss Ina Banbury at the piano. A “motto”, was given by Mr. Jack Banbury. Mias Marion Wilson contributed a piano solo. A “motto” was given by Mr. Bruce Amos. A very interesting journal was written and read by Miss Gladys Metherall. Mrs. Cecil Howard favored with a medley of fine piano numbers. A little couple, Barbara Bowman and Lome Groves sang a duet very sweetly. Misses Shirley Clark, Doro­ thy Bowman and Noreen Heeney sang a trio with Miss Helen Stover as accompanist. Mr. Ken. Foster and Miss Ruth Turner presented a "quiz” and a musical contest. The singing of. God Save the King, completed this part of the program. A number of young girls then brought in the many beautiful and useful gifts in baskets decorated in pink and white, to the bride and gloom who were seated in chairs decorated in the same shades. Cecil, on behalf of himself and his bride, thanked their friends in a few well ehosen words. A “sing song” waa enjoyed by all with Mr. George Mc­ Neal ut the piano, and' ended with “They are Jolly Good Fellows,” A lovely lunch was served, after which, with many hearty good wishes to Cecil and Marguerite, the crowd dispersed in the “wee sms’ hour*” Good sized congregations were pre­ sent both Sunday morning and even­ ing in Trinity United Church to wel­ come Rev. R. Harold Parr, who was recently appointed a? minister of the congregation during the absence of Captain the Rev. Charles D. Dan­ iel on active service. His morning subject was, “The Three Hills of the New Testament,” and in the evening, "The Four Figures of Jewis." Rev. Mr. Parr, Mrs. Parr, lheir daughter June, aged 14 and son Don­ ald, 11, moved to Ingersoll last week from Niagara Falls, where Rev.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 16th, 1941 “This Is Our Pledge” President Roosevelt recently addressed the Con­ gress of the United States on "'the state of the Un­ ion.” He also addressed it on the state of the world. It was a lucid, masterly, realistic summary, following closely the lines of his recent memorable "fireside chat” on the question of defense. It may well be taken that Mr. Roosevelt has sounded ■ the death knell of short-sighted isolationism in his country, an isolationism which, however, sincere, was tantamount to the aggressors’ own game. In calling for an immediate, swift and driving in­ crease in armament production, the President re­ stated the necessity of making the United States a veritable arsenal of democracy. And he was directly practical when he told the Congress he would ask “for greatly increased new appropriations and auth­ orizations to carry on what we have begun.” That Mr. Roosevelt proposes to urge to the full his plan for supplying armaments and equipment to. Brit­ tain, the Empire and their allies, not on a "cash-on- the-line” basis, but by a "payment-in-kind” agree­ ment, is immensely heartening. It indicates not only a sound business sense but a statesmanlike vision. "Let us say to the democracies: ‘We Americans are vitally concerned in your defense of freedom. We are putting forth our energies, our resources, and our oganizing powers to give you the strenth.to regain and maintain a free world. We shall send you, in ever- increasing numbers, ships, planes, tanks, guns. This is our purpose and our pledge.” Thus spoke the President of our great neighbor Republic in terms unequivocal and unmistakable. These words will be received with grateful jubilation in London and in every capital of the Empire. They will serve to strengthen the resolve of Greece and of every other freedom-loving land. They will strike a heavy and telling blow at Axis morale. The early endorsation and fulfilment of that pledge could well swing the balance of war decisively in favor of Britain and her allies, and so hasten the dawning of the day in which right shall triumph and a secure and just peace be established. That the Congress will see fit to implement the President's momentous plan will be the earnest wish of all who appreciate the jeopardy >n which freedom now stands.—Brantford Expositor. Side by Side •It was both generous and just of the British Broad­casting Corporation. recently to render a tribute inone of its programs to the gallantry ofthose American citizens who are seeing the war through in Britain. The British pedple, in the midst of their fiery ordeal, have been quick to recognize the comparable courage of the hundreds of American citizens, who have resolved that bombs shall not remove them from the British Isles. How many there are of these is not exactly known. The American Embassy in London points out that American citizens are not compelled to register their presence there, but affords as a very rough estimate that there are more than 2,000 Americans whose firm intention is to stay in Britain for “the duration." Many Americans actually are bearing artrts or pil­ oting planes or otherwise aiding the fighting forces. Some are business men; son;® are newspaper corres­ pondents who have worked with undaunted devotion to duty even amidst great danger. All of these Americans are exhibting the valorous attitude of Dorothy Dickson, the singer and dancer, who, when a reporter asked her whether she had thought of leaving Britain on account of the bombs, replied, “No, not for a single moment.” In courage, as in everything else, the Anglo-Saxon peoples stand side by side.—The Christian Science 'Monitor. LOOKING BACK 23 YEARS From the Files of The Oxford Tribune, Ingersoll, Canada, Thursday, January 10, 1918 Mfas Gretta Craik of Crampton, has been confined to her home during the past week through illness.

He had been over eight months in France. Jean Moyer of Mt. Elgin, is visiting relatives in Woodstock. Miss Vera Bongard of Crampton, was the guest of Miss Mildred Morris of Dorchester, this week. Newton Chambers, of Sajford, has secured an hon­ orable discharge from the Army. Miss Florent House of Mount Elgin, spent a few days with relatives in Delhi. Mr. and Mrs. Brown of Toronto, were holiday guests.of the former’s suffer, Mrs. T. N. Dunn. CORONARY THROMBOSIS CANADIAN LEGIONWAR SERVICES LEGION SENDING VOICE OF CANADA TO OLD COUNTRY Coronary thrombosis is far from being immediately fatal. Indeed the majority of patients, both public ward and private, are able to return to work following an attack, and re­ main in good health for many years. Drs. Masters and Dack, well- known clinicians of New York, have made a masterly analysis and re­ port upon the subject which goes far in proving that the results, in a large series of cases, are most hope­ ful. Thus for example, in 75 cases in private practice, 62 per cent, of them returned to their usual rou­ tine of life or wofik, 1 per cent re­ sumed light work and only 8 per cent were completely disabled. A larger series of 415 patients, 185 private and 230 public ward cases who had sustained coronary occlusion and had survived the acute attack, made an excellent showing. There were 842 males and 73 fe­ males. Of these 75 per cent, had suf­ fered one attack, 22 per cent a sec­ ond attack and the remainder a third or 4th attack when first seen. All types of occupation and all strata of society were represented. More than 50 per cent of the ward patients were manual labourers while but 11 per cent of the private patients were so employed. More than half the patients re­ turned to work on full time. Half of this group resumed work within 3 months of discharge from the hos­ pital, three-fourths within six months and nine-tenths within a year. The professional and white collar classes resumed work more frequent­ ly than did persons engaged in other occupations. The younger the patient the like­ lier he will be able to work. The percentage in women was about the samg as men. The worst feature in coronary thrombosis is the number of at­ tacks? Thus it will be seen from the foregoing analysis that coronary thrombosis cases present a far from discouraging picture. Participants in Rehabilitation Benefits To Assist in Collecting Re-Establishment Data Assembling of information to assist in re-establish- _ ment of soldiers in civil life will be sought in con­ junction with the payment of the recently authorized, grant to dischatged soldiers who have completed 183 dayh on active jervice.

CABBAGES end STRAWBERRIES SOURCE of VITAMIN C The old scourge of seamen-, sol­ diers and explorers, namely scurvy, which was caused by lack of fresh fittits, vegetables and fresh food generally and for, which lime-juice (really lemon-juice) was a specific, "is now readily prevented by the use of- either cabbage or stiawberriea. Of strawberries from three to five ounces (say 30 berries), or about 1 to 4 ounces of cabbage daily will suffice to prevent scurvy. Many other foods, such for example aa spinach, turnips or potatoes do equally well. On his first great voyage of dis­ covery, Captain Cook, the celebrated navigator, insisted that hi* sailors should use soups made from wild celery and other plants. He set the example by-eating wild celery him­ self and those of his crew who de­ murred were given the rope’s end. The saving agent in fresh foods, fruits and vegetables is ascorbic acid. Both strawberries and cabbage are amply supplied with this acid. The berries have from 36 to 65 milli­ grams (one-one thousandth of a gram) of ascorbic acid in each 100 gram* of the fruit (a gram is a little over 15 grains.) In cabbage the pro­ portion runs from 48 to 181 mill!-! grams to the 100 grams A common way in which to pro­ vide vitamin C for children is to give Ottawa—The Canadian Legion is helping to make radio history by in­ stituting the first regular Canadian broadcast service to th* British Isles. Up to now this DorniitiV has been heard but seldom onJjtSe dials of British radios because of ths lack of short-wave broadcasting facilities. Only through the use of the expen­ sive trans-Atlantic beam system, cable or United States short-wave stations has it been possible—on special occasions of historic import­ ance—for Canada to'. broadcast to the Mother Country or other parte of the Empire and the world. Under a new sAeme ’ that wentinto operation Janlary 4, the. voice of Canada now goes to the Old Country every Saturday at 3 pm., ED.T. It is in the form of half- hour programs entitled, “jJews from Home,” designed especially for the Canadian forces overseas. Conceived by the Canadian Legion War Services as a means of helping to maintain the morale and fighting spirit of the troops, the regular weekly broadcasts feature the voices of mothers, wives and sweethearts who send messages of love and greetings. Included in the broadcast are budgets of news of particular interest to the men. The idea is to present a cross-section view of the Dominion through homely, "neigh­ bourhood” news stories from all parte of the country, and to show that the country is unified and solid­ ly behind the Empire in its struggle for freedom. Recorded in Canada through co­ operation of the Canadian Broad­ casting Corporation, the programs are sent in disc form by air mail to short-wave station WRUL, Boston, owned and operated by the Wide World Broadcasting Foundation, New York. From there they are short-waved to the B.B.C. which re­ broadcaste them on . the long-wave band so that all persons with ordin­ ary, receiving seta may hear them in Great Britafti. The expense involvedis nominal Ace WRUL is a non-com- mere ial station operated for the pub­ lic weal and not as a profit-making enterprise. Families of the men Overseas, those taking part in the broadcasts, or interested listeners may hear the "News from Home” broadcasts by tuning in to WRUL on the 25-meter band. Reception in Canada is re­ ported to be quite satisfactory. SIXTEEN LEGION JMEN NOW SERVING TROOPS STATIONED OVERSEAS Ottawa —- Canadian. Legion ' War Services now has 12 supervisors worinng among unite of the 1st and 2nd Canadian Division overseas, ac­ cording to information released by Lieut.-Col. E. A. Olver, D.S.O., 'act­ ing general manager of the Legion organization. Col. Olver, announcing the arrival in England of J. A. McD. Chalies, of St. Catharines, Ont, who has been attached to the oversea* staff, said that four additional Legion supervis­ ors are expected to leave for the Old Country at an early date. Their arrival will bring the total C.L.W.S. supervisors to 16.

It has been equipped with cots, bedding and blankets. Personnel of the Legion War Ser­ vices are in charge of the operation of the hostel which, if necessary, will be equipped later on with light refreshments facilities. Sleeping conditions in Halifax for service men on leave have been acute for many months and even the operation of the Armouries by the Legion as a hostel will not over­ come the situation entirely, though it will ease it considerably. The Armouries is the second es­ tablishment in Halifax being oper­ ated by the Legion for men on active service. Some weeks ago a building in the downtown section of the city was purchased for use as an educa­ tion and todal centre for the troops. Its acquisition was to offset some of the congestion caused by the large number of men enrolling as student* under the Legion’s education pro­ gram. One floor of the 30-roons building has been divided into classes, reading rooms and library. The rest of the structure is being used for social purposes such a* games, entertainment, concert par­ ties and sing-song*. Elsewhere throughout the Atlantic Command, which is heavily populated by the forces, the Legion fa operating six recreation huts for members of the Actvie Army., It ha*. in addition- two recreation centres in Militia Training Campa and two dry can­ teens for troops in Newfoundland. “You don’t make very good mune with that instrument,” said a by­ stander to the man with the ba*a drum as the band ceased to play.

' "Mr. Roberts, no stranger to Can­ ada, has expressed keen gratification at the prospect of his new duties here. No assignment could have made him happier at this time than the opportunity to take a hand in our all-important task.” Mr. Roberts, a native of Virginia, and a graduate of the Virginia Poly­ technic Institute, gained his first business experience with Westing­ house in East Pittsburgh, and was ac­ tive in this company’s first operations in the automobile starting and light­ ing equipment field. During the World War he was an officer in the United States Signal Corps. ‘ Returning to Westinghouse after the war, he remained with that company until 1920. In 1922 he joined General Motors Corporation with the Chevrolet Div­ ision, and almost immediately his abilities jvere directed to the work of plant construction and manage­ ment, in which he handled many and varied assignments. In, 1925 he con­ structed and started the operation of the important General Motors plant in the city of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Mr. Roberts’ most recent assign­ ment was the construction and man­ agement of the plant at Linden, New jAsey, with a capacity of 140,000 cars per year. From ths impressive achievement he comes direct to his new' duties as Vice-President and General Manager at Oshawa.

Useful Farm GuidesAccount Book and Map .The use of farm accounts and records has always been associated with good farm management, but- to-day under war conditions, with fixed selling prices for some farm products and rising production ex­ penses farm accounts and records should prove particularly useful. Farm accounts form a permanent record of the business transactions involved in the yearly operation of the farm. Such a record is of great assistance > in making plans for the future, and, if the ’ facts disclosed from a study of these buSine’s rec­ ords are not forgotten or .overlooked, many errors of judgement may be avoided in the future, states H. D. Mitchell, Field Husbandry Division, Dominion Experimental Farm Ser­ vice. It is now particularly advisable that production be maintained at as uniform rate as possible throughoutI the year and this may call for changes in winter feeding and man- ' agement of live stock. Therefore, feed records should be kept as this inay be the means of effecting econ­ omies in the purchase of feeds and the use of substitute feeds as their prices fluctuate. < A map of the farm used in con­ junction with a crop record makes a very useful guide in planning future crop production; This map should show the crops grown in the differ­ ent fields each year as well as the yields and other related data, such as rates and dates of seeding also rates of manuring or fertilizer. Such a record would show the effects of the application of fertilizer or lime on the different fields and would ‘lead to a more definite program of soil management. The changes that have already occurred and those that are likely to follow the war make it imperative that the most skilful farm manage­ ment be used in the future. Farm­ ers cannot start too soon to keep permanent records of their business. Brown had become the father of a bouncing boy and was very proud of the fact “A letter for Mr. Brown,” called the postman one morning ’.’Senior or junior?” asked the fond father.

Hagerman of Toronto, Described Work Being Done By Navy League For Can­ adian Soldiers. President Kiwanian W.A.C. For­ man was in charge of the regular weekly meeting of the Ingersoll Ki- wanis Club held on Thursday even­ ing, at 6.15 o’clock, in the Ingersoll Inn. There was an attendance of S2.26 per cent of the member* as well as several visitors who gathered to hear an address by Mr. J. P. Hagerman of Toronto, representing the Navy League of Canada. The speaker was introduced by Kiwanian Roy W. Green. Mr. Hager­ man at the outset of his remarks complimented the children of the Ingersoll schools for the contribu­ tions they had made to the Navy League during the Navy League Week in December. The contributions from the Ingersoll Public Schools he said amounted to $207.63 and from the Collegiate Institute, $15.00. It was such generous donations as these from various communities through­ out Canada that made the work of the Navy League possible. He declared that ninety per cent of the work of the Navy League is done by voluntary effort and the ad­ ministration costs of these operations are exceedingly small. In December the Navy League distributed over one million pieces of patriotic liter­ ature in the schools of Ontario. As the result nearly half a million pupils signed patriotic testimonials of ap­ preciation and loyalty to Their Majesties, the King and Queen. Some 300,000 pupils shared their savings to help the Navy League give Christmas Cheer to thousands of sailors and their dependents, and inuny gave up their own Christmas parties for this purpose. As the result of the generous don­ ations received, the Navy League were able to ship recently to our sailoft on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts: 10,000 "ditty bags” filled with lovely gifts for sailors, at an average cost of over $5.00 per bag; 600,000 cigarettes that were tax and duty free; 40,000 chocolate bars, 40,000 packages of chewing gum, 10,000 pounds of plum pudding, scores of thousands of knitted gar­ ments and scores - of thousands of magazines. At Christmas the speaker said the Navy League had provided Christmas Cheer by the way of a full week of entertainment and dinners for thou­ sands of sailors wh<J had shore leave at Ocean ports, as well as for depen­ dents of British and Canadian sailors lost at sea. Mr. Hagerman reviewed the work that is going on in nearly every community in Canada to help the Navy League ■ and other patriotic organizations. This, he declared, is a kind of work that Hitler and his kind can never understand. He paid tribute to the work that is being done by Service Clubs and uiged thA members of the Kiwani.i Club to give-leadership to the youth in their community upon who must fall the responsibility of tomorrow in the ijp-adjustment period that will follow the war. During .1940, through the efforts of the Navy League, more than 5000 'teen-age boys received the advantages of training in seamanship and clean, manly citizenship in the Navy League Cadet Corps. AJnifomfa, full equipment, instruction, ship’s quarters, qualified office* and all other requirements wereg provided- free to the boys and more than 1,000 well-trained cadets and ex-cadets went into active service in His /Majesty's forces on the sea, on land and in the air. The thanks of the club were ex­ tended to Mr. Hagerman by Kiwan­ ian Henry I. Stewart, vice-president of the club.

Hewouldn't be satisfied otherwise and neither would I.” O»ha«ra, January 9—Drafted by the Dominion Government for a key post in the war-time mobilization of Canadian industry, Harry J. Car­ michael today resigned as Vice-Pre­ sident and General Manager of Gen­ eral Motors of Canada. He will leave at once for Ottawa. From command of four large auto­ motive factory plants in Oshawa, Windsr, St. Catharines and Regina, scene in recent months of one of the most conspicuous of Canada’s industrial war achievements, Mr. Car­ michael, as the ‘^Knudsen of Canada" steps into a sphere as wide as the whole industry of the Dominion. His duties and responsibilities are ex­ pected to be made public by Ottawa.* Announcing Mr. Carmichael's res­ ignation, R. S. McLaughlin, the Pre- sidefit of General Motors of Canada, voiced his pride in that the Com­ pany is thus able to place itself fur­ ther at the disposal of the Govern-' ment in the war effort to which so many substantial contributions have already been made. !‘We are making a very great sacrifice,” he said. "But this appoint­ ment may well be of supreme con­ sequence in our country’s all-out effort. I have always considered Harry Carmichael one of the most efficient executives in Canada and one of the most modest,” The General Motors chief cited recent requirements made on the Company as proof of this. Orders from Great Britain and the Domin- • ions for • munitions and war equip­ ment of various kinds had already been received by General Motors in Canada to the amount of over sixty million dollars, he said, and deliver­ ies were expedited beyond official expectations. As he turns over this task to others, Mr. Carmichael leaves the G. M. factories geared to an out­ put of 300 military vehicles per day, soon to be*increased to 400 per day; not to mention a rapidly rising cap­ acity for munitions of various types including large orders for machine guns. Mr. Carmichael began his business career in 1908 with Sargent & Com­ pany in New Haven, Conn., and in 1912 joined the McKinnon Industries at St. Catharines, Ont. Shortly after this organization was acquired by General Motors Corporation, Mr. Carmichael wa* appointed President and General Manager on March 1, 1929. He tMis made Vice-President and General Manager' of General Motor* of Canada, Limited, on March J, 1936, retaining his execu­ tive responsibility at St. Catharines Until today when his last official act was to name W. T. Wecker as his successor .in the post of President and General Manager at McKinnon Industries. Best known in St. Catharine*, where it was said that “no citizen has given himself to superabundant­ ly to the public or the service of others,” Mr. Carmichael has wide business affiliations in the banking, transport, mining and other fields in addition to his automotive associa­ tions. HeTs a director of the Bank of 'Toronto and several manufacturing companies; a. member of the execu­ tive of the Canadian Manufacturers Association; a member of the Amer­ ican Management Association, Mr. Carmichael is a forceful per­ sonality. Cool, quiet-spoken, friendly, he is still in his forties and < looks .wore the trained athlete than the busineaa executive. He is a sports lover, "pal” of juvenile players, ac­ tive in every community enterprise. He vriuCborn in New Haven, when his father, a British engineer, wa* em­ ployed there.

To Fill War Orders Increase Necessary In Milk Production During the year commencing April 1, 1941, Canada has been asked to supply the British Ministry of Food with 112,000,000 lb. of cheddar cheese and as much more as can be made available at a price of 14.4 cents per pound f.a.s. ship or f.o.b. car Montreal, also 1,000,000 cases of evaporated milk (48 one-pound tins to the case) at $3.73 per case f.a.s. Canadian seaport. In ti* 12 months ending March 31, 1941, Ship­ ments of cheese from Canada to. Britain will, it is expected, total ap­ proximately 97,000,000 lb. According to J. F. Singleton, Associate Direc­ tor Dairy Products Division, Domin­ ion Department of Agriculture, and Chairman Dairy Products Board, it will be necessary, in order to meet British orders for - cheese, evapor­ ated milk and take wire of the dom­ estic requirements for butter and other dairy products, to increase milk production in Canada by about 650,- 000,000 lb. The increased cheese production must naturally come from .Ontario and Quebec, where more than 90 per cent of all Canadian cheese is made. The greater- part of the increase in butter production should be in the three Prairie Pro­ vince?, where for several years but­ ter has been produced in sufficient quantities as to allow a considerable proportion to be available for export to the Eastern Provinces and British Columbia. To obtain the essential increase in milk production’ in 1941 it wjll bp- necessary either to add to the num- ber of milk, cows, which at June 1, 1940, was 3,894,000 throughout the Dominion or to advance the product­ ion of milk by at least 4.5 per cent over. 1939. Dr. E. S. Archibald, Director, Do­ minion Experimental Farms, says that one of the most economical ways for farmers to improve the milk production of their cows is to improve the carrying capacity of pastures. Recognizing the importance of pasture improvement and its bear­ ing on wartime economy of product-' ion, the Agricultural Supplies Board has issued * special pamphlet No. 13 entitled “Pasture Improvement for Cheaper Production”, which can be obtained free by writing to Publicity and Extension Division, Dominion Department <xt-Agriculture Zantippe, the Scold— By Eveline A. Long — In my recollection of old Greek history, Socrates stands out as the typical example of the philosopher, whilst his wife, Zantippe is, is all the world, the prime example of the shrewish scold. While it may be that these two famous people were exact­ ly as the books have portrayed them, it is much more likely that neither was as exaggeratedly typical of such cliaracters as they appear, for shrew­ ish Zantippe has also been presented as the capable and thrifty housewife and Socrates, in spite of his learning had his failings, one of which appears to have been a habit of procrastin­ ation. It may be that Zantippe, in her anxiety to have' Socrates appear at his best before all men, berated her poor husband unmercifully, not so much that she loved to scold as that she hated him to offend and thus seem less great than she knew him to be. This being so, the scold I does not loom perhaps as quite so dreadful a person or so much the hor-I nble example as we have been led ' to suppose. At all events, Socrates without his Zantippe must have been much like roast beef without mus­ tard, for although mustard, as Bot­ tom the weaver so'exquisitely puts it, “hath made my eyes to water ere now,” it does add zest to the flavour of the meal. This scold undoubtedly pushed her beloved into action when he would much rather have sat, like Ferdinand, the Bull of Walt Disney’s cartoon, sniffing at the flowers and idly contemplating the beauties of nature around him. However, her urging, her continual nagging, drove him to do his duty to his own gen­ eration so that his School of Thought became world-famous. It has handed down to us the learning and philos­ ophy that have become the corner- Ernest M McNallyBuried At Kintore The funeral of Ernest M- Mc­ Nally was held from his late resi­ dence, Oxford Lane, on Thursday afternoon, January 9th, where ate impressive service was conducted at 1.30 o’clock, by Rev.

John E. Borland and Mrs. Fred Thornton, sang as a duet, “Jeaaa Saviour, Pilot Me.” Interment was made in the Kintore Cemetery, the pall bearers being Messrs.

Qobson, General Manager, -Reports Unprecedent­ ed Business Activity But Peak Not Yet Reached Somc of the factors having a vital bearing on the extent and effective- ■ess of Canada’s War Effort were dealt with extensively by Morris W. Wilson, President and Managing Director, at the Seventy-Second Annual Meeting of The Royal Bank of Canada in Montreal. Mr. Wilson drew attention to the fact that tran­ sition of Canada from peace-timeto war-time economy had been made without financial disturbance or strain, and remarked on the essen­ tial soundness of Canada’s financial position at the present time. Mr Wilson, however, warned that ia the year ahead the financial prob­ lem would be more difficult and called for drastic retrenchment by the public and • by governments in arder that the maximum effort might be devoted to war purposes. “There is little evidence of re­ striction of even extravagant expen­ ditures on the part of the public as a whole, except insofar as this lineof action has been made necessary bythe incidence of taxation," he said.“Unless the public are prepared tosave a very large proportion of theincreased wages «ind salaries whichare being distributed, there are threealternatives before us: (1) (2) (3) The Government must furtherdrastically increase taxation, or A system of forced savings must be adopted, orThe well known inflationaryspiral will steadily gain head-. way.“Nor am I sure that Federal, Pro­vincial and Municipal authorities have Eliminated from ther budgets■II unnecessary expenditures andpostponed all capital outlays that canpossibly be deferred, as they should do in war time." goods. Full use of increased purchas­ ing power .would mean that insteadof the demand for ordinary goodsbeing reduced, it would be greatlyincreased, and to that extent wouldstultify our war effort. But war de­mands are inexorable, and if thosewho use the bulk of non-military pro­duction will not reduce their, de­mands, the only way the situationcan be adjusted is by a rise in theprice level proceeding faster than in­ creases in wages. “This seems to me to be a com­pelling argument for a compulsorysaving plan if the people as a wholedo not respond to the present .appeal of the War Savings-Committee; oth­ erwise those wh6 are too weak or tooselfish to face the issue will have wasted a part of the benefits whichwould have accrued to the thrifty aswell as to themselves." WAGES Mr. Wilson remarked with satis­faction that Canada has been largely free of labour disputes since thebeginning of the war and, “it isessential that neither strikes nor lockouts should be allowed to inter­fere with production." He favouredthe Government plan for a standardwage scale, supplemented by bonusesto meet any rise in the cost of liv­ing, the bonuses to apply evenly ona per capita basis and not as a per­centage of existing wage rates. He felt that workers would accept theirshartf of sacrifices if equal sacrificesare made by salaried employees, executives and capital. SIROIS REPORT Referring to the conference of Provincial Premiers to be convenedshortly, Mr. Wilson said, “the mainprinciples laid down in the SiroisReport can be said to commendthemselves -----* j:-----------*~observers.” of common sacrifice, a better planof Government cannot be found, Igreatly fear that it will not be found when peace returns."In conclusion, Mr. Wilson spokeof the “terrible confirmation" during 1940 of his statement made a yearago,'that "the very existence of theEmpire is at stoke" in this war. “I fear that at times we are inclinedto forget the bloody tyranny withinGermany itself, the steady extermin­ation of the defenceless Poles, thesenseless slaughter of 30,000 civiliansin Rotterdam, the invasions of Nor­ way, Denmark, Holland, Belgium fol­lowing solemn undertakings to re­ spect their neutrality, and the wan­ton destruction of historic buildingsand chur.ch**, sacred not only to the whole English-speaking world, butassociated with the finest traditionsof all humanity, These are thingswhich we must not forget if we areto retain a proper appreciation ofwhat we are fighting' against. The new world order proposed by Hitleris one In which truth and honourhave nd meaning, law has no force,human dignity no place; a corruptand corrupting tyranny, the qualifi- to most dispassionate“If, in the exaltation TAXATION Mr. Wilson expressed the opinionthat "a considerably larger propor­tion of our costs should be met bytaxation than has been indicated by any plans so far discussed. It sepmsauite clear that at the present tempo•f business our national income is in­ creasing at a much greater rate thanthe aggregate of all taxes." Dae to present business activityProvinces and Municipalities havehad the problem of unemploymentautomatically solved for them and for the same reason their revenue*have become increasingly buoyant. “I trust this’situation will result indefinite tax reductions by them in•rdef to cushion the effect* of —greatly increased Federal taxation," - said Mr. Wilson. While admitting that no perfect sehemc.v of taxing profits or income. had ’ever been "devised, Mr. Wilsonexpressed the opinion that present •orporation taxes arc not designedto produce either the maximum re- ^--- ......turns or to spread the incidence of cations, for leadership of which em--jtaxation fairly over industry a* a brace the basest traits of man." whole,' "I. advocate nothing that- wouldtend to reduce total Federal* corpor­ation taxes, but 1 am afraid that the Excess Profits Tax is going to bearunfairly on companies that duringthe period of the depression have been far from prosperous, a* .com­pared with those that have all alonggiven a reasonable return to *hare- bolder*.“Before leaving the quertion ofwar taxes, J should like to say that1 think the personal income tax hasbeen raised to the full extent that is economically desirable.” WAR SAVINGS Mr. Wilson considered the.present *efforts to expand sale* of War Sav­ ings Certificates by far the most im­portant feature of Government fin­ance. s“Thl* is not because of the sumsinvolved. The great bulk of our warfinancing must as usual be by way■f bond issues.

G. Dobson,General Manager, .stated that. Can­adian business was experiencing un­ precedented ‘activity and that thepeak had not yet been ■ reached.Extending thanks of Directors and Executive* te the bank’s 7,000 em-ployee*, Mr. Dobson said: “Four hundred and forty-six member* of our staff have enlisted for militaryservice, aqd one hundred and fifty­eight more have been accepted andare subject to call. Lfcave of absencehas been granted to all those whohave enlisted, and. positions will beavailable to them when they return.'Married men are being ' paid the difference between three-quartersof- salary and army pay, and singlemen the difference between two-third* of salary and army pay."The employee* of our £wo Lon­don office* dre performing theirdaily work amidst the death and des­truction of modern warfare, and are eatrying on in the characteristicBritish way..

Registered Seed Mean* Good Crops At a time when increased product­ ion and lower production costs are of such importance, careful considera­ tion should be given to the part I which seed can and does play in achieving these ends. The careful live stock breeder does not use hap­ hazard methods in selecting breed­ ing stock. He uses only animal* of known value to improve his herd. These principles, if followed in the case of seed grain, will re ft It in in­ creased yields and a correspondingly lower -cost, say* Dr. J. A. Clark, Superintendent, Dominion Experi-’ mental Station, Charlottetown, P.E. I. What advantage has registered seed to offer the grower? To begin with, only varieties of proven merit are accepted for registation, thus the fanner who uses registered seed may rest assured he has a good var­ iety. Purity of variety is of primary importance in registered seed pro­ duction* and a very high standard of purity must be maintained before a field will pass inspection. Seed borne diseases, such as smut, may cause severe losses each year but much of this loss can be avoided by the use of registered seed. A field, to be accepted for registration, must be practically free of smut. In the case of loose and covered smut of oats, covered smut of bar­ ley, and bunt of wheat, infection may take place after th crop is har­ vested, but this possibility is relative­ ly ea»y to guard against. Weed seeds, so prevalent in much of the seed grain commonly used, must be removed from registered seed before it can be sealed and offered for sale. Germination of registered seed also must be uniformly high. Registered, seed is the highest grade of seed grain obtainable. The cost of such seed is naturally some- w^at higher than that* of .commercial grade*, but- the resulting improve­ ment in yield, freedom from disease, and higher market value, will more than repay the slight additional cost. Special Army Course Opens At Ford Plant Windsor—Intensive training in ser­ vicing, maintenance and operation of military vehicles is being provided for groups of Canadian soldier* by Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited. Groups of officers and other ranks receive expert instruction for two weeks in this course which is being conducted in the company’* service school at the Windsor Ford plant.

Under the auspices of the j^P.U.of Westminster Chunch^jBF Toll Bros, of London, ptaflmtfed their travelogue, “Hiking ‘Through South Toronto—In various parts of On­ tario, women who put their names on •‘Ditty Bags” filled by them with Christmas gifts and distributed to sailors, are beginning to receive most appreciative letters. In one case all the men on a Canadian ship signed the acknowledgement. In an­ other, the lad who was cheered at Christmas, said the bag arrived w jbnhe was down to his last cigarette* The number of cigarettes fur- chased by the Navy League, Ontario Division, was in excess of three quarters of a million. In addition the Navy League donated tens of thous­ ands of chocolate bars, plum’ pud­ dings and other treat* beside innnutn- erable knitted'^arments and maga­ zines. This work for the sailors was made possible by the wonderful co-opera­ tion of Ontario Schools. Some of the most remote scttlemeAa in the Pro­ vince were among th* thousands ofplaces that responded’to the appeal made with the approval of the De­ partment of Education. Word has just been received at the Toronto Headquarters of some striking ex> amples of the goodwill of Ontario children. None was more appreciated than the story of a country school back of Kenora, where the boys and girls had been saving pennies for a Christmas tree. Most of the children belonged to foreign-born families., They were so impressed with the the story of the Navy League and what it was doing that they decided to forego the Christmas tree and do­ nate their fund to the League’s Christmas project, Kenora Rotarians heard of the self-sacrifice and the result was that after all the boys and girls had an even belter Christ­ mas tree than they had Originally planned. They all now believe there really is a Santa Claw. An interesting revelation in con­ nection with the. story fnun Kenora was that during'“Navy Week,” the children constructed a miniature fleet and most prominent among their ship models were copies of British war­ ships they had seen' picture* in the newspaper* as among sea losses of Oxford Deanery Sunday School By Post .
