Dear Sir: I am inclosing a clipping from thp New York Times of February 19th, which may be of interest to some of the readers of your paper, i The gentlemtn in the picture re­ ceiving the certificates, i» Mr. C,Frank Crawford. As a boy, ^rank lived on Oxford street, above Ferris Corners, the part then known as Cork Hill. Ingersoll nursed him, the United States stole him, and New York has prized him. > Almost two score years ago, when Frank was President of the Printers’ Association in New York, he was very much disturbed by the law's delay In the settlement of disputes between printers and their customers, and among printers themselves. So he organised an Arbitration Association, whifh in a very short tinie accom­ plished noticeable reeulta. Fewer cases of printers’ disputes appeared in the Courts and some already in the Courts were withdrawn, so that people began to apeak of the Asso­ ciation i)nd Mr. Crawford, and ask: Who is Crawford! Others'of social consciousness be­ came interested and Mrs. Astor wrote to him', asking him to come and ex­ plain hl* theories to a number of guests gathered -In her home. When Frank reached there, he found jud­ ges, lawyers, doctor* end laymen, eager to hear him; and for two hour a, with his natural clarity and elo­ quence, he explained his theories and the manner in which he was en­ deavoring to put them into practice. At the end, he was very much com­ plimented,.and one outstanding Judge remarked that Crawford must be Irish, because of the boldness of his theories and the clarity of his explan-. | (Continued on page 5) The Ndutical Tea, sponsored by Group Two of'the Ladies Aid of St. Paul’s Presbvterian Church, and held in the Sunday School room of the church on Friday afternoon, was voted a real success. The decorations were unusually effective and carried out in every detail the nautical theme. The walls were decorated with anchors and life preservers and ship models were placed about the room.

Phillips, Elmer was High Scores At The u Duplicate Bridge Club The inquest into the death of Mrs, i Edna Lena Taylor, wife of Alonzo ; Taylor, at her home on the 9 th con- i cession of East Nissouri, on February 13th, was held on Friday afternoon, i February 21st, with the Chief Coron­ er for Oxford County, Dr. H. G. Fur­ long, of Ingersoll, presiding. Sixteen witnesses gave evidence and the ver­ dict of the jury was: “We, the jury, find that Mrs. Tay­ lor came to her death in the early hours of the morning of February 13, 1941, at her home on the ninth con­ cession of East Nissouri; her death .we consider was caused by potassium cyanide, which she admits in notes left by her was self-administered; we, the jury, in the evidence given by Mr. Taylor, consider that we cannot accept it as given but are willing to admit that his actions on the after­ noon and evening of the day before were indirectly responsible for the subsequent actions of Mrs. Taylor." In notes that were submitted sign­ ed by Mrs. Taylor, she stated in sub­ stance she had grown weary of being threatened with being thrown out of her home and was "going to end it alt” She said further in one of the notes "that she hoped that every time her husband raised a glass to his lips he would see her bruised face." Another note also was produced asking her husband to make certain distribution of her money. At one stage of the investigation a picture of Mrs. Taylor taken after death, was produced by Provincial Officer John Clark, Woodstock, which showed discoloration of her left eye and part of her face. As to this con­ dition the husband in hi* testimony denied any knowledge an to how she received it. Th jury was composed of Hugh C. Harris (foremaniwa^iayton Ironside, Harold Quinn, . Arnold Hogg and Bryant ,Tye. Dr. John Wittis, Lakeside testi­ fied to being called to the Taylor home on the morning of February 13, arriving there between 10.30 and 11 o’clock and he -believed Mr*. Tay­ lor was dead on his arrival, but death had taken place only a short time before. At that time, he said, her left eye was discolored. Quinton King, drover, St. Marys, R. R. 4, told of a trip he had made frvm Taylor’s home on February 12, about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, when be was accompanied by Taylor. They had gone to Kitchener where they had four bottles of ale, he said. They left about 7 p.m., going to New Hamburg where they had supper. From there they Went to Stratford, where they had two glasses of beer, went to a.restaurant and dined, and then went home. He let Taylor out at* the gate and said Taylor was all right when he got out of the truck, and that he was not intoxicated. Taylor himself testified that he had gone on the trip against the wishes of his wife. He said When he came home his wife ww angry and an ar­ gument followed, but disclaimed doing her any injury. In the morning at 8.30 when he went out of tlta- house quietly she waa lying on the couch and he believed she was asleep. About. 10.30 he returned to the bou*e and tried to arouse her and he then realized she ,-vras dying. He went to the home of Mrs. Gregory, Dickson’s Corner*—-The meeting of the Admiral McDougall < Chapter, was held at the home of I Mrs. (Dr.) Weir, Thameaford, with a s good attendance.

A new , flag was placed at the memuiial grounds, Dickson’s Corners. A gift was sent to a soldier, a son of one of our members, who left for over­ seas; flowers or fruit in Illness, and flowers in bereavement, and* Christ­ mas Cheer for shut-in*.

Calendars were also placed in the schools at Christmas. An oratorical contest was held in October, sponsored by the Chapter and-a collection received a generous response. A goodly sum was for­ warded to the Telegram’s Fund in the name of the pupils who took part in the contest. In the absence of Miss Rose, war convener, the report was read by Mrs. >R. J. Kerr, and showed a goodly amount of war work accomplished by the Chapter, Socks, helmets, sweaters, wristlcs, scarves, handkerchiefs, gowns, layettes, bin­ ders, and a large number of garm­ ents for the air raid victims, have been made and returned to the Red Cross, *lso a generous box of knitted goods and a box of garments for air raid victims was shipped via Provin­ cial Chapter, I.O.D.E., all of which shows that .the members have worked 'faithfully to help-win 4he vttCr.

Yule and Mrs, Yule, and all agreed that the dance was an outstandingly successful and enjoyable affair. The music for the evening was provided by the Oxford Rifles Or­ chestra, under the leadership of Har­ old Bingeman and their popularity was attested to by the fact that it was with regret the dancers stopped at two o’clock. Special numbers were enjoyed at various times with prizes for "spot” dances going to Mrs. Nor­ man Harper and Miss Louise Butler and for the birthday dance to Miss Janet Pearson. Delicious refreshments were pro­ vided by the Kiwanians* ladies and nerved by the Kiwanis Boy Scouts.

Mr. Bevin’s remark and the knowledge that com­ rades in the British Isles lend far, far more per per­ son than Canadians do, should help to raise Canada’s per capita lendings very quickly.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 27th, 1941 Heaven On Earth—Let’s Keep It! An elderly woman in Regina, Saskatchewan, last week signed a pledge to buy one War Savings Certi­ ficate every month. The' lady’s income is twenty dollars a month, a sum ■he realizes on a pension. To the canvasser who supplied the old lady with a pledge form, she said she could buy one certificate each month by doing without one meal each day. What strong motive lay behind the decision of this Canadian citizen in the west? Certainly it is highly unlikely that she was thinking of her own future. She has just about travelled her alloted ^»n of life. Could it be that by this subscription, one Canadian woman is making a thankoffering for the peace, free­ dom and resultant contentment which has been hers in this country in a democratic regime? And if this were true, could it not be an example for millions of her fellow-citizens to follow? Canada has had her depressions during the past 75 years. There have been inequalities which have caused suffering for many of her citizens' time and time again. The western farmer has put up with drought, hail and poor crops. ;Many have lost their homes in the wake of poor times. But generally •peaking life in Canada during the past seventy-five years has been heaven on earth. The Canadian citizen has been alble to think andZ ~ talk as he pleases. He has been able to write and en­ force laws for the protection-and the benefit of the masses. Labour enjoys the right of collective bar­ gaining. Labour has been able to employ the strike weapon without fear of opposition from an armed force. Injured workmen get compensation. Dependent widows receive allowances from the State. Elderly people, unable to work any longer get old age pen­ sions from the State. Canadian children benefit under one of the most inexpensive and efficient educational systems in the world. Canadians work where they p|ea.se.- Canadians have a standard of living unsurpassed on other .Continents. Thousands and thousands of factory hands ride to work in motor cars. The Can­ adian home without a radio receiving set is the ex­ ception rather than the rule. In scores of cities, in­ door plumbing, electric light, electric power for re­ frigerators, stoves, radios, are taken for granted.1 Electricity flows into thousands of farms for general use. And even thousands of those who have been forced to accept unemployment relief have not been forced to do without electricity and the radio. Is this not a heaven on earth? There will be many thousands in Canada who might answer "No.” But seek the answer from Englishmen, Frenchmen, Italians, Germans and almost every other-race in the World, and the answer would be '’heaven indeed.” For centuries our forefathers moved- exceedingly •low, *up through the eras of military tyrants, feudal lords, property barons, and more recently exploiters of the capitalistic system. But in Canada, the people have risen rapidly to a standard of living undreamed of only a hundred years ago. Most Canadians feel that there is much left to be done to make this’ country yet u happier one. The time has come however, when without abandoning hopes and plans for further progress, we can pause and look back-over the past seventy-five-yeara with a great measure of thankfulness. In a fighting spirit, then, we should decide to consolidate1 what we have gained. With a full knowledge that Hitler squints en­ viously in our direction and will, if he can, place his bloody feet on our shores, we fail those who have contributed to our present position, Jf we do not sacrifice every dollar we can spare to the effort being made against the de»poi|er Let's buy 'War Sav­ ings Certificates to the very limit of our resources. Accident Prevention- "Accident prevention work is much more important in war time than it was in peace time,” R. B. Morley, general manager of the Industrial Accident Preven­ tion Association, maintained the other day in a state­ ment which he said provided an answer to many queries centered on the question "What about acci­ dent prevention work in war time?” “Conservation of men and material ceases to be an economic problem and becomes one of patriotism,” the statement said. Mechanized war has placed indus­ trial plants in our first line of defence and they must operate at top efficiency. Accidents which we merely deplored in peace time must stop now. We cannot spare a skilled workman for even the few days that an injured finger would cost. “There is a new reason for safety today—a reason that ranks ahead of humanitarianism and economics. Safety will speed the job we have to do, will help our war effort and enforce our determination to retain our freedom and our way of life. Canada’s safety demands our personal safety—-dn the job, on the, highways, and in the home.” LOOKING BACK 25 YEARS From the Files of The Oxford Tribune, Ingersoll, Canada, Thursday, Feb. 24th, 1916 Pte.

Mtea Walker SILK OF GLASS Glass silk is now being sent over­ seas from Great .Britain in increasing quantities. The manufacturer ex­ ported 250 per cent, more of it last year than in 1939. It is used for saving heat Not less than seventy-five per cent of the heat created each year by mill­ ions of tons of fuel is wasted. This specially manufactured glass silk ia perhaps the most effecient material for stopping such wastage in dom­ estic equipment like boilers, pipes and stoves. In the last few months, this glass silk insulating material, which is un­ affected by temperatures up to 900 degrees Fahrenheit, has been shipped from Great Britain to South Africa and Calcutta in (he form of blank­ ets; as mattresses to East India (for railway locomotives) and to North­ west India (for insulating petrol wagons): in rigid sections to New Zealand, Trinidad and Portugal, and, in sheets, for separating the positive and negative plates of electric ac­ cumulators, to iOanada, New Zea­ land, Australia, and Eire. Various other glass silk products I have been recently depatched to 1 Arabia and the whole of the insulat­ ing material required for the new Bulawayo Hospital and Nurses’ Home, Rhodesia, will consist of Bri­ tish-made glass silk. THE QUEEN’S THISTLES Thistles plucked from the Queen’s birthplace have been used for the design of one of the new table ser­ vices on which British potters are now working overtime to meet the Dominions' demand. “Glamis Thistle" is rivalling fav- burites from over the Border like “Old Chelsea,” “Lowestoft Bouquet”, "English Posy”, “Old Leaf Spray” and “Rosetime." Canada is leading the Dominions’ demand for designs and colour schemes in the tradition of the home country. Tableware- is sent to Canada in large composite sets appropriate for the three meals of the day. Tureens are deep and so are "side dish” saucers which follow the Victorian, shapes. In 1939 Canada alone bought from Britain two and a half million dollars worth of such goods and since the begihning of last year the largest maker of them has in­ creased exports by 75 per cent, de­ spite a visit from Goering's Luft­ waffe. FOX TROTS “TRANSLATED” INTO TANGOES room and his consumption of elec­ tricity shows how much of it is need­ ed to keep this constant And they have a section of the Universe set up in miniature in their laboratory at Watford. An artificial sun is slotted in a vertical column and set at the appropriate altitudes of the changes of the seasons. A six- inch house model on a disc swung on pivots is orientated to season, lati­ tude, and time of day. So the heliodon, this ingenious in­ strument- showing the earth moving round the sun, tells the architect how the shadows will actually fall upon his finished house and show him where he may amend his design to get all the sunshine there may be. Plan For Hospital Care Toronto-—For the price of a post­ age stamp daily, employed persons in .Ontario may now .protect them- selv.es against possible hospitalization expenses in connection with illness affecting themselves or their depend­ ents. This was announced by C. J. Deck­ er, President of the Ontario Hospital Association, at a meeting at the Royal York Hotel when the Plan for Hospital Care was inaugurated. N. II. Saunders of Toronto, was ap­ pointed managing director of the Plan. Enrolment in the Plan for Hos- “There'll Always Be An England" is one of three favourites with which British music publishers are meeting a growing demand from the Domin­ ion*. The other two are “The Last Rose of Summer” and “I Hear You Calling Me." Australia in particular is asking for more and more sheet music from Gre'at Britain, the result of a visit paid to the Commonwealth last year by Peter Dawson «ndd Brian Law- rehce, both of whom have done much to popularise English ballads. To-day, British music publishers are exporting as fast as paper sup­ plies permit Exports to South Am- -erica are actually up by 300 per cent, since -the war began. The chief buyers are Argentina, Uru­ guay, Brazil and Chile. Nowadays Buenos Aires music­ lovers who want the latest thing in music are not sending to New York or Borton. They send fo London. Music is four times cheaper from Itondon than New York; and it cornea in half the time. It is the old favourite* that are in demand, mel­ odies like the “Grasshopper*a Dance” and the ballade of 25 years ago. Moreover, Bntwh musiciaru are adapting themselves to capture > ^market formerly held by Italy and Germany, and for Routh America they are “triinslating'’ their fox­ trots, and other dance music into tangoes. BRITAIN AFTER THE WAR Brttteh scientists are working hard for the day when the sound of the builder’s ‘hammer will succeed the thud of the bomb. At the Building Research Station, Watford, near London, they are looking ahead to peace time, when Britain will multiply by many times the Wh«h ate used to »p*nd oa building in « year.

"Similar community services in the United States have about 6,000,- 000 subscribers enrolled in 66 com­ munity and state-wide Plans,” he stated, “while that operated in Man­ itoba is now entering on its third successful year.” For les>than two cents a day, an employed worker will under the term* of the Plan’s contract, be entitled to standard hospital accommodation for a period of 21 days in any one year. For less than three and one-halfsrents a day, he may secure the same bene­ fit to all members of his family. Inaugurated by the Ontario Hos­ pital Association, the plan has the endorsation of the Ontario Medical Association and the Academy of Medicine, while Hon. Harold J. Kir­ by, Minister of Health for Ontario, has approved its schedule of rates and benefits. Specifically, the Plan guarantees its subscribers complete hospitaliza­ tion for 21 days in any year in re­ turn for a*subscription of 50 cents monthly for the individual, or |1.00 monthly for an entire family. Stand­ ard accommodation is provided. Participating hospitals will require no cash deposit on admittance of a subscriber or his dependent. The hospital bill will be rendered to and paid directly by the Plan. The bene- fits consist entirely of hospital ser­ vice and cash indemnity w not paid to the' subscriber. In addition to the routine services of the hospital, the subscriber will be entitled to: Use of operating room aa often as necessary. Anaesthesia material and equip­ ment. Routine laboratory service. AH ordinary drugs and medica­ tions. Dressings and plaster casts. One half the hospital charges for maternity cases, including delivery room service and ordinary nursery care of the baby. The subscriber will have free choice of hospitals and free choice of doct­ ors, it was stated. The Board of Administration, which serves on a voluntary basis, includes R. Fraser Arrnstrong.'King- ston; J. Clark Keith, Windsor; F. H. Holmes, St. Catherines; and C. J. Decker, Dr. G. Harvey Agnew, J. H. W. Bowe?; Dr. W. J. Dobbie and A. J. Swanson, all of Toronto.

A general review of the financial position of the municipalities of the province was given. It was pointed out that at the start of 1941 Ontario Municipalities definitely entered into an era of economy. The present fis­ cal position of these municipalities is the soundest that has been obtained in the past three decades. There are no municipalities bankrupt at the present time anj>29 of those in de­ benture difficulties in 1933 are now on cheir feet. The policy of pay-as-you-go spend­ ing was advocated under present conditions and approved methods of sound- financing was strongly urged. In addition to outlining the finan­ cial standing of the various munici­ palities in Ontario, specific mention. was made to the splendid financial position of the town of Ingersoll. The speaker said:—'‘Ingersoll is, one of those separated towns, of which there are seven in number in the province, the others Ueing Brock- ville, Smiths Falls, Trenton, St. Marys, Gnnonoque, and Prescott.

Ottawa—All the world admires a success story. Accordingly considerable publicity has been given to the escapes of Ger­ man prisoners of war interned in Canada or while in transit to camps. With two exceptions all of these men have been recaptured before they could get out of Canada. One of the two who crossed into the United Suites has since been returned and is behind barbed wire again. The other is being held by the American auth­ orities pending the disposal of his case. These have been the success stories among the prisoners of war in Can­ ada but against them the internment authorities are able to set attempts at escape involving some 150 prison­ ers, attempts which though cunningly planned have been frustrated. Colonel H. ktethem, Director of In­ ternment Operations, has made pub­ lic a few of the cases where ingen­ uity and alertness by the guards proved superior to the cunning of the prisoners. About six weeks ago, in a camp where some of the more dangerous Nazi are interned the authorities had a “hunch” that an escape was being planned. A quiet Ibut careful investi­ gation disclosed that a tunnel, 3 feet below the surface was being burrowed from a hut to a point beyond the barbed wire. The discov­ ery was made so quickly, that one of the prisoners was caught at work in the tunnel. In an officers' internment camp tunnelling on a grand scale was dis­ covered early in December. The sus­ picions of the guard were first aroused by the sound of tapping. It required some careful investigation to locate its position and when this was done the subsequent search led to the discovery of no less than three tunnels leading from three different rooms of the building. In one room the wallboard had been removed, a large stone taken out of the wall and the rubble carefully concealed. From another room the prisoners had suc­ ceeded in tunnelling through the wall, cutting through a series of iron bars with penknives made into saws by means of a file stolen from the car-* pentry shop and the work was well on its way to the final wall when discovered. The third tunnel led through heavy brickwork towards the upper loopholes of the building. The loopholes had been enlarged but the prisoners still had another stone wall obstacle to overcome. The tools used for this work had been made from iron taken from their beds temper­ ed in the heating Moves. 1-aat September an ingenious pris­ oner took the lock off a manhole cover and used the manhole to start a tunnel. He was caught when an observant guard noticed an old coat covering the opening into which the prisoner had been shovelling- the earth. Another imaginative prisoner tried to conceal the entrance to his tunnel with an artificial cover of newspapers and flour fashioned to represent a rock, but a vigilant Pro­ vost .policeman soon spotted that ar­tifice. A number of bold attempts at es­ cape through the barbed wire fences have been'made but none has been successful. The sentry’s challenge generally brought the prisoner to a shamefaced halt. Others, however, gave movie methods a try. One pris­ oner clung to the underside of a garbage truck but was caught at jhe gate where all vehicles leaving the camp are thoroughly inspected An­ other hid himself in a carton of dirty laundry but on reaching th^ compound, gate, the cartons were ex­ amined and he was quickly removed. Since that time laundry has been sent out in small bundles. Despite their vaunted efficiency, the Nazis have not done as good a job of guarding British prisoners of war. in Germany as Canadian* have done guarding Nazi prisoners of war in this country. There have been a number of escape* from Nazi intern- ment comp*. One of the mo»t spectac­ ular was that of Lo^ Cardigan who made his* way for more than 1P»» mile* through France and Spain aid finally back to England. This was an infinitely more difficult feat than slipping across the few miles which separate the location of the intern­ ment camps in Canada from the in-ternational boundary.

THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, FEB. 27, 1941John James MillerDied Sunday MorningJohn James Miller, a resident of Ingersoll for the past 57 years, passed away at his home 29 Carnegie street, shortly before noon, on Sun­ day, February 23rd, following an ill­ ness of about seven weeks’ duration. Deceased was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Luke Miller, and was born at Arkona, Ontario. He was in his 63rd year and came^with his parents to Ingersoll to make his home when but a small boy. For the past 35 years he had .been an employee of the Morrow, Screw & Nut Company Limited and was employed with that firm when taken ill in December. He was of quiet and unassuming nature and made for himself a large num­ ber of friends, who learned with sin­ cere regret of his passing. The late Mr. Miller played in the Ingersoll Citizens’ Band and other local musical organizations and was always willing to give of his talent in helping projects of this nature. He was married twice, his first wife predeceasing him in 1934. Be­ sides his widow he leaves to mourn his passing, one son, James W. Miller, two daughters, Mrs. Austin Noad and Mrs. Peter Paton; four grand­ children, two sisters, Airs. Harry Pet­ rie and Mrs. Milton V. Lucas, all of Ingersoll and two stop-daughters, Joan and Yvonne Dunham at home, to all^of whom the sympathy of their scores of friends is extended. - The funeral was held from his late residence, 29 Carnegie street, on Tuesday afternoon, where service was conducted at 2 o’clock by Rev. Phil­ lip H. Hawtin, pastor of the Ingersoll Gospel Tabernacle, assisted by Rev. R. Harold Parr, minister of Trinity United Church. The service was large­ ly attended and there was a profusion of lovely floral tributes, testifying to the esteem, in which deceased was held by a wide circle of friends.

This remark of the Judge wasltrue to fact, os Frank was as proud of his Irish ancestry as he was of his Can­ adian birth; as proud indeed as that excellent and sweet lady, Mrs. Mc- Cauhey, who lived next door to Frank on Cork Hill. For a score of years, Frank gave his heart’s best loyalty to the fulfill­ ment of his theories, and thus I see a certain smile on his face, as he re­ ceives the certificate, as though he realises that his pet child has now grown to maturity, with a nation­ wide reputation. Those who judge men on princi­ ples borrowed from the pessimistic philosophy of their own dark lives, assume that the ideal of devotion, and of loyalty, tt> a cause has per­ ished from the earth, but in his long years of labor for the altruistic prin­ ciples of arbitration, which he fos­ tered and supported, Frank Crawford stands today as a man disproving such an assumption.

Interesting Sermon At Gospel Tabernacle Great interest was evidenced at the Tabernacle last Sunday night, when the pastor, Rev. Philip H. Hawtin, took for his subject, “Will there al­ ways be an England?” Among many other proofs that Britain has a des­ tined part to play in the plan of God the speaker said that the greatest assurance we have that Britain would endure was the kindness of that Empire to the Jew. “The Scriptures clearly show that the English speak­ ing races will show kindness to the .Jew till Christ comes,” the speaker added. Mr. Mill of London, sang two beau­ tiful solo* and al*o a Gospel duet with his wife. Mrs. Mill and Mrs. Hawtin played a two piano duet for the offertory.

DORCHESTER ONTARIO » » » The Queen Give* HerName To Fund ForAir Raid VictimsDominion-Wide Organization Is Founded. The Queen, who. is repeatedly braving danger tp bring consolation to victims of air raids in Great Brit­ ain, has granted the use of her name to a fund-to be raised on a nation­ wide basis in Canada to assist those "in the 'front line” in Britain who have suffered from air raids. This will be known as the Queen’s Canadian Fund for Air Raid Victims. The Queen's Canadian Fund, or­ ganized with- Government authority, will serve as a national framework for local funds throughout the coun­ try, many.of which have started spon­ taneously. in recent weeks. The national appeal will be formally in­ augurated early in April. The Quten’s Canadian Fund, whose headquarters are at 231 St James St. 'West, Montreal, will operate in Great Britain through the Lord May­ or’s National Air Raid Distress Fund. It is supported by newspapers throughout Canada with a combined circulation of over 2,000,000 and will be operated through the newspapers j only, except insofar, as local organiz- lers desire to make their own arrange- | ments. Subscription lists will be I opened at all branches of the Royal I Trust Company and some of the daily newspapers and national week-enw newspapers will also collect funds in their own localities. The Fund has been organized by a small working committee consisting of: John G. McConnell, President, The Montreal Standard, (Chairman), Roger Ouimet, Advocate, (Vice- Chairman), Ross Clarkson, Assist­ ant General Manager, the Royal Trust Company, M. G. Ballantyne, Publisher, Flight-Lieut Hartland Molson, R.C.A.F. • The Queen’s Canadian Fund will in no case interfere with local ef­ forts, but will rather reinforce them with its supply of news and pictures. The Lord Mayor’s Fund in Great Britain to which the Queen’s Canad­ ian Fund will from time to time turn over; monies, is a national effort which anticipates and supplements any Government provision by prompt gifts of clothing and cdAh for immed­ iate necessities after air raids. Ur­ gent needs are relieved in a sympath­ etic spirit, and all relief is distri­ buted through civic authorities in different parts of the United King­ dom.

William J. Tune Pa*«e«'ABOUT SOME PEOPLE A Family Compact?—As usual, France still provides much that is puzzling. Even though he appears to’ be under the heel of the dictators, Marshal Petain is able to assert a cer­ tain amount of independence. He will not give up the French Fleet and for some reason Hitler does not appropriate it, as is his general cus­ tom when he wants anything. Per­ haps the reason lies in the fact that he might find himself confronted by a family compact. Family ties are strong in France, and as Generals de Gaulle and Weygand are cousins, with Marshal Petain also a family connection. Hitler might well hesi­ tate. Vichy Diplomacy takes on a dif­ ferent aspect when viewed in that light.• • • Furniture and a General—Another family relationship in military circles is of more interest locally. General A. G. L. McNaughton Officer Com­ manding the Canadian Corps in Great Britain, is the son of a former resi­ dent of Ingersoll. Hu mother was a Miss Armour, step-daughter of Mr. Crisp, whose furniture store was near the present site of the’McDoug­ all grocery, on King street west Many houses in town still contain furniture that came from Mr. Crisp’s. • V • Faithful Citizens—Much is heard of the fine work being done by our men in the Forces Overseas, but we hear less of those civilians from Can­ ada who also are in the front line in the Mother Country. A letter re­ ceived recently tells of two who are a credit to their country—there are many more. “I am often reminded of your country.” writes our corres-' pendent. “The Head Warden at the A.R.P. post to which I belong, is a Death shortly after 6.30 o'clockon Wednesday evening, February 19,removed an esteemed resident of Ingersoll, In the person of Marie Theresa Qumeah, dearly beloved wife of William J, Tune.

A daughter Of the late Mr. and Mrs. Peter Dumeah, she was «bom in Bay­ ham .Township,.south of Tillsonburg, and was in herx72i)d year. Previous to her marriage she had lived with her parents in Tillsonburg arid for the past 43 years had been a resi­ dent of Ingersoll. She was a member of the Church of the Sacred Heart, Ingersoll, and a past president of the Catholic Wo­ men’s League pf the parish. She was a very active worker in the affairs of ‘the society as long as her health permitted and had a wide circle of friends by, whom she was highly esteemed. Surviving besides her husband is one son, James W. Tune, Toronto; a sister, Mrs. Alex Hutchison, Jackson, Michigan; and two 'brothers, Charles Dumeah, Detroit Michigan and Jos­ eph Dumeah, Windsor, Ontario. The funeral was. held from the family residence on Saturday morn­ ing at 8 o’clock, to the Church of the Sacred Heart,. Ingersoll where req­ uiem high mass was celebrated at 8.30 o’clock, by Rev. Father .A. Fuerth, pastor of the church. The service was very largely attended, members of the Catholic Women’s League, of which deceased was a past president, attended in a body.

Even fractional change in the quantity of ingredients may affect the yield and quality of burley. Consequently, for best returns commerical plant foods should be used in accordance with the needs of the s crop-. A study of the cost of production of burley tobacco show that labour (including horse and man) is the'largest single item chargeable to production costs, being approximately sixty per cent. In comparison, the cost of fertilizer is less than ten per cent. The trend towards higher farm labour costs will1 naturally mean a lower margin of profit. Therefore, to maintain even a narrow margin of- profit, ways and means should Joe 'found to cut the cwt .of production in tobacco grow­ ing. More efficient* use^f commer­ cial fertilizer may assist inwhat con­ nection. Experiments qn methods of appli­ cation conducted by the Dominion Experimental Farm Service at Har­ row, Ontario, states R. J. Haslam, Assistant Superintendent, show that commercial fertilizer applied in bands at the time of transplanting with a fertilizer attachment,'on the tobacco planter save not only in the cost of one. operation but also in the quan­ tity of fertilizer. Seven hundred to eight hundred pounds applied in bands gave results equal to one thous­ and pounds applied broadcast or by the established row method. Tests also indicated that balance in the fertilizer mixture was highly im­ portant. Well-balanced fertilizers showed a profit of 12.50 to 53.00 for each dollar spent on fertilizers, while unbalanced mixture reduced margin of profit and invariably showed a loss. Cigarette burley responded most definitely to fertili­ zers well supplied with potash, parti­ cularly when following clovers and also when manure was being applied in liberal quantities. For burley to­ bacco on the sandy and gravelly loam soils a 4-8-10 fertilizer gave the .most consistent results, while on the more loamy or heavier soils a 2-12-10 was found to produce the most satisfactory returns. To assist further the efficiency of tobacco fertilization, many growers have seen the advantage of the rapid soil tests. These tests are a use­ ful guide in prescribing fo.r the needs of the tobacco crop, and are made without change by the Dominion Ex­ perimental Station, Harrow, Ontario. ming was in charge and after th$broadcast groups were formed forthe discussions.
