An open meeting of the Ingersoll Horticultural Society was held on Thursday evening last in the Inger­ soll Community "Y” when members of the local organization were hosts to members of the Tavistock Hor­ ticultural Society who provided a most enjoyable and entertaining pro­ gram.

Following the program a social period was enjoyed, lunch being ser­ ved by members of the Ingersoll organization. As was advertised, the-first hour of the service at the Tabernacle on Sunday evening was full of gospel music, and again much credit is due to the untiring efforts of the orches­ tra. The service was made 4nore im­ pressive by the assistance of Mr. E. Mill, noted tenor gospel singer from London and his wife, who is a great musician. Beautiful solos such as “His love is better than gold,” were de­ lightfully rendered by the gifted ;singer and were greatly appreciated. He was ably assisted by his wife and I their wonderful message in music ! will not soon be forgotten. ”Swe4t Hour of Prayer,” a sawaphone solo was sweetly given by Mr. John An­ derson, who has’such unusual talent in being able to play a musical saw. During the musical part of the ser­ vice, two pianos were uset^ and twice Mm. Mill apd Mrs, Hawtin played two lovely piano duets. There was a good attendance and no one present could help believing more firmly that truly music hath charms. A brief, but very forceful message was well delivered by the pastor. He chose, for his text the words of i’aul, "Thanks be unto God for His Un­ speakable gift", 2 Cor. 9:15. Mr. Mill sang very feelingly the appro­ priate hymn, ’Ux>rd I'm Coming Home," when the usual altar call was again given. Bert McBeth of Ingersoll once again the Checker Champion of Ox^ ford County.

President Robert Wark was in charge and the gathering was featured by the presentation of a lovely silver serving piece to Y’s Man Max Poole in view of his approaching marriage. The presentation was made on behalf of the club members by past president -Joe. Foster.

Rogers, Harry Wateon and Jack Mayberry with Y’s Man Ewart A^ Bartley as accompanist were much enjoyed. Guest speaker for the meeting was Edward J- Dutton of Woodstock, whose subject was “Bird Instinct Ver­ sus Human Intelligence.’’ Mr. Dutton was introduced by Y’s Man Gordon Henry. The speaker discussed the economic value of birds to mankind and described the many different types. He related how he first came to take an interest in birds when a young lad. In those days there were practically no books with pictures of birds which could be used for refer­ ence in helping one to get the cor­ rect name of a particular bird-thus he named them himscH according (p their features and actions. He told how he continued to make the study of birds his hobby and had toured" Canada and the United States with W. E. Saunders and others in studying bird 4»fe. The speaker described the formation of the Wood- stock Bird Club eleven years ago with eleven members. This had in­ creased in membenship until at the present time there were 150 boys ranging in age from eight to thir- teen years. * Birds were dassified.in the follow- ^heme, “Courage,” by Mrs. W’illiam ing types, insect eaters, seed eaters, " " ... . >rhodent eaters, fish eaters and cami- r verous or flesh eaters. The s’peak- | er named the birds of each of these * type* that were native of Ontario. He said that if all bird life' were des­ troyed. mankind would starve in from two to three years, m pests would plague the earth and destroy crops and do other damage that would make human habitation’ impossible. He referred particularly to the Snow Bird that, comes down each winter from the north to get food. Each day this bird makes from 250 to 400 tripe to its nest to Led its young with insects. Figuring on an average of five-pair of these birds to *n acre they would consume aboffttwenty tons oV insects - in Ontario alone during the 120 days they are here each year,- Many people have * false impres­ sion of Hawks and Owl* Mr. Dut­ ton declared. These birds do not destroy or exterminate other ^bird life m many believe. He contend­ ed that man had done much in the destruction of bird life and had been responsible for th* extermination of the pasamger pigeon*. Th* most destructive bird was held to b*-4he Er<liMh Pheasant which *st*-bur na­ tive birds that are a benefit to man. An interesting story told by Mr. Dutton wa* of the fi*h eating bird* which he contended were to fish the same M doctor* ar* to humans Con­ trary to general opinion these ftoh eating girds only do away with dead, ' sick or injured fl*h *» wth healthy Quilts Donated For St Columba Bale The March meeting of the St. Col­ umba W. M. S. was held at the home of the president, Mrs. Donald McKay, who took charge of the meeting. After the singing of the opening hymn, Mrs. Alec. Woods led in prayer.

The business per­ iod was spent in arranging for the quilting of several quilts for the bale which were donated* by some of the members of the society.

I. War Saving* Gempeign by Dr. Mr&. H. H. MacBain again assisted the Guild as the fashion commen­ tator, speaking brilliantly about the general style trends and pointing out the high style points in the costumes as they were shown. She stressed the three main colour themes: the North American, in which the col­ ours are those of the West, the beige and pastels of the canyons, the bright Indian colours; the South American theme which uses the vivid colours of Peruvian pottery and takes,its softer shades from the cacti flowers; the British theme which stresses col­ ours named for parts of the Island, dear to British hearts, the .blues of the sky and sea, the greens of the fields, the pastels of the flowers, and the sands and browns of the beach and earth. Beige is probably the out- : standing basic colour for it is onewhich lends 4»elf to blending or contrasting with the vivid colours. The flag colours too, are extremely popular. Mrs. MaoBain emphasized that colours may be “matched, blen­ ded strategically or contrasted dram atically.” The designers are all striving to­ ward creating a -tall, lean silhouette, and the front fullness of the skirts is one of the most effective ways of doing this. The shirtwaist style is again basic, but it is a softer style, with a more gentle shoulder line. Bolero dresses with bound waistlines were especially new and a daring cape costume with vivid lining, caus­ ed comment. White reveres, frilly jabots and collars were reminsicent of the gay daridies of yester-yeai1. The coat* were of a dressmaker or casual style, extremely simple and depending for their smartness on the cut. Hate were decorative with sail­ ors and casuals still popular and worn absolutely level. Shoes, bags and gloves were smart complements to the various costumes. The two weddings were high points of the showing. The first, an informal one, was ai ranged by t)>e Walker Stores, and featured afternoon frocks .in* canyon pastels, with- accwmrie* of .the best'style. The formal wed­ ding, by the Ingersoll Housefurniab- ing Company, presented a regular story-book scene with the bride in a beautiful gown of white *ilk em­ broidered tulle • with short veil, and two bridesmaids in blue and pink embroidered tulle, made in similar design, wearing the very newest of picture hats and carrying a sheaf of roses.

Words of Inspiration - •‘You ask, what is our aim? 1 can answer in on? word. It is victory. ” Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.”—Winston Churchill. No Long Word* One of the results of having the Rt. Hon. Winston Churchill as Britain’s prime minister in time of war is the rapid rediscovery that the English language is cap­ able of expressing great thoughts and inspiring world-saving action. And few of Mr. Churchill’s yrords are long words. It might be argued that Mr. Churchill would be a great man even if his speeches were un­ readable. But this might pot be the fact for the mind which is capable of stripping thoughts to simple words is a'mind which can grasp great problems by casting away nonessential detail. The power of Mr. Churchill over the free peoples of the earth is the power of forthright honesty of purpose which prob­ ably would not be as great if he ever succumbed to the temptation, apparent elsewhere, to use words for concealment, rather than the expression, of thought. Squadrons of Another Spring They are moving, all the great whitebreasted geese from the green bayous of Louisiana, first the power­ ful ganders, siqjpwy and strong from, months of mar­ shalling their flocks in search of food, in testing ex­ cursions, in flights from those who would do them harm; and after the ganders the geese and their vig­ orous young, each one beating the air and exulting in the broad reaches of the sky. What discipline prepared them for this flight, what profound unconscious knowledge taught them the Jjour, the direction, the way, we cannot know; only that a summons went forth upon the air, or an earth impulse inaudible to any ears but theirs, bidding them spurn the ground, look not backward, spread sail­ broad vans of wing, and follow the beam. We may not see them as they pass far above us, their compass-arrow pointed for the islands of the north; but sometimes in the early dusk we shall hear their aplemn, eerie trumpets in the. sky, crying de­ fiance to danger, darkness and cold. Down through the ages that note has sopnded, and' will for many more; a challenge to each rising generation that de­ mands of it, again and again, as the years roll by, new strength, new courge, new confidence in life it­ self and the uncharted way. Bakery Products While the way to a man’s heart may still follow the traditional route, the modem young, miss relies a great deal upon the titbits turned out by the neigh- t borhood bakery to produce the.desired results. Baking is probably the oldest industry in which man has engaged. Evidences have been discovered,that lead us to -believe the custom dales as far back as the Jjjtone Age. Furthermore, the oldest form of baking appears to*be bread, much as we know, it today, the Egyptians having perfected that art over 1,500 years before the beginning of the Christian era. With the development of towns and cities the bak­ ing of bread ha« gradually passed from the home to the family buker. Modern bakery shops equipped . with intricate and costfy machinery have attained the r dignity of factories and transformed the simple art of baking into a leading industry, which in 1Q39 fur-: nished employment -for over 23,000 persons^ , With the shops baking on such a large scale, it is no longer necessary for the housewife to spend long hours in the kitchen in an effort to satisfy the demand­ ing appetib-s of a hungry family. It is so much easier, for the city housewife anyway to have her breads and pastries, roll* and cakes delivered to her door ip attractive and sanitary wrapper*. In 1939. there were over 3,000 establishment* in' Canada producing bread and other Bakery product*. The consumption of bread amounted to $51,666,000 pies, cakes, cookies and pastries $ 19,383,000 and bun* $4,277,000. it is interesting to note that'almost four million barrels of flour were'used in the making.

Over 200 At FederationOf Agriculture Meeting IRAQ'S FIRST CEMENT WORKS The first cement works to be built in Iraq has been shipped out there complete f^om a famous British steel works. It includes a large plant for crush­ ing the limestone, large mills for grinding the limestone and clay to the necessary degree of fineness, a rotary kiln, 300 feet long for burn­ ing the raw' materials, another large mill for making finishing cement, and an ingenious machine which auto­ matically packs the product in paper sacks. The works which will turn out 250 tons of cement a day will be able to increase the output, should the de­ mand warrant it, to 600 tons a day. By a unanimous vote more than 200 residents of the rural districts of Oxford in attendance at a meeting of the Oxford County Federation of Agriculture held in the City hall, WoodstocF, on March 19th, approved a plan to raise money for the worjj of the Federation orf a provincial and. Federal scale". The plan calls for payment of a farm fee of 1 cent per improved acre, or 1-5 of one mill on the assessment .t^lue. Speakers present outlined the need for |8,000 a year to-carry op work of the federation, z including establish­ ment of offices in Toronto and Ot- British pencil makers have set up a new record iby their foresight in lay­ ing away great quantities of Vir­ ginian red cedar wood during the last months of peace. These-stocks, with new deliveries from Kenya, are En­ abling Great Britain to ship more pencils overseas than she did before the war: the increase for the last quarter of 1940 was 60 per cent, up on the like period of 1939. The result, is that 70,000,000 pen­ cils a year, in 3,000 styles, are now going out to world markets from the British Isles. The finest of them, and the largest quantities 'are bought by South Africa for the use of the multitude of draughtsmen in . the drawing offices of the Union’s great mining centres. The dearest pencils exported cost 30/- a gross; the cheapest 5/6. Pen­ cils with “gadgets’, metal rings and rubbers and other novelties, go to the bazaars of India where the de­ mand is for cheapness. Lead hardness is determined by the proportion of China clay mixed with the graphite. Real gold is used for lettering the best; bronze, or sil­ ver, or aluminium for cheaper goods. Placed end to end, Britain's 70,- 000,000 pencils would extend to 773 miles. Chairman for -the meeting was J. E. Nephew, Woodstock, and on the platform with "him were tho follow­ ing: V. S.» Milburn, secretory of the Ontario federation; Harry Scott of Norwich, president of the Ontario federation; Warden R, F. MinersVof Tillsonburg; Erie'S: Kitchen, secre­ tary of the Concentrated Milk Pro­ ducers’ Association; Ralph Burton, secretary of the,Oxford County Fed­ eration; J. J. Poole, president of the county cheese producers’ group and vice-president of Che Ontario Cheese Producers’ Association; and W. J. McCorquodale of Ertibro*. Chief speaker of the .afternoon was V. S. Milburn, who gave a lengthy and explicit outline of the farm problem and the work of the federation. Mr. Milburn outlined the history of the Ontario federation leading up to the present time. He stressed the fact that to be successful and achieve its object it must have 'the backing of scores of local county organiza­ tions.An informal discussion followed Mr. Milburn’s address and a number of resolutions were introduced. Brief speeches were made by Ed. Bond and J. Lucas of the Middlesex County ; Federation. In a lengthy report of the educa­ tional program during winter months, secretary R. W. Burton outlined the meetings held and the program fol­ lowed. Oxford, he said, led in the number of discussion groups organ­ ized and reporting to the' central of­ fice in Toronto, nearly 50 how being active throughout the county.

Vessels are to be built in section* at ordinary steelworks inland and transported to these assembly yards on the coast or t<i waterside sites on the great rivers lor which a useful purpose has longjbcen sought. At least one-third of each ship will be dealt with outside the usual ship­ building centres. The vessels are of a standard design, specially adapted to working under the convoy system, with a carrying capacity of about 8,000 tons. Similar mass-production ships built during the last war are still in ser­ vice and change hands, when they- can. be ; bought, at up to £60,000 apiece. Since those days Britain has gained ' * great deal of experience in stand­ ardised shipbuilding and the new plan therefore offers no insurmount­ able problems to British shipbuild­ ers, Oil the contrary, quite outside Britain's existing shipbuilding facili­ ties, it points the way to the speedy construction of new: ships to meet Fthe menace of the U-boat and the bombing aeroplane.

At their regular meeting on* Thursday eyeningjast, members of the Ingersoll Ki wan is Club heard a §hort talk |>y Arthur L. Langford, Toronto, of the Sales Department of the Ontario Hydro Electric Power Commission and viewed the talking motion picture, “The Bright Path,’’ depicting the magnitude of the vast Ontario Hydro System. The club pre­ sident, \V. A. C. Forman, occupied the'chair ano there Was a good atten­ dance of the numbers os well as a number of visitors. Kiwanian Harold G. Hall, superin­ tendent of the Ingersoll Public UtiK ities Commission for the past twenty- five years introduced the speaker to the gathering and gave a detailed : account of the progress made by the itcal Commissoin during the , past I quarter century. | Mr. Hall quoted facts and figures I that were of much interest and showed the splendid financial posi­ tion of the Ingersoll Hydro depart­ ment at the present time. In 1915 Hie revenue in Ingersoll from Com­ mercial Power was $16,251.18 and in 1940, $35,052.08, when the con­ sumption was 3,388,15fi K.W. hours at an average cost of only 1.034c per KW. hour. In 1915 the revenue from Commercial Lighting was $’5,- 716.91. The consumption amounted to 139,428 KW. hours and the aver­ age cost was 4.1c per KW, hour as enue from Domestic Lighting was$5,480.52, The consumption thenwas 102,537 KW. hours and the Av­ erage cost 5.3c per KW. hour. In 1940 the revenue amounted to. $31,- 456.54, 2,420,232 KW. hours were consumed and the average cost was 1.29c per KW. hour. It w^g pointed out by the speaker that previous to the establishment of the Hydro System in Ingersoll Xhe rate charged for electricity was 8c per KW’. hour plus a monthly meter rental of 25c. In 1915 there were 497 domestic users as compared to 1462 at the present time and 136 flat rate water heater’s in use. There were 197 Commercial Light users in 1915 and in 1940 the number was 23'f'and there were 2 commercial water heater's under this" classifica­ tion. However in 1915 there were 52 Commercial Power user's as com­ pared to the .45 listed at the present time. The total monthly average oL power used in 1915 was 882 1LP., while last year the amount increased to an average of 2613.58 H.P. per month with a peak during the year of 2856 H.P. At the pre-ient time Mr. Hall point­ ed out that the valuation of the Ing­ ersoll plant was $208,134.81 and Ingersoll also had an equity in the Provincial Hydro System amounting to $18^,955.48 as against the value of the plant in 1915 which was $95,- 705.96. The depreciation reserve at that time was but $9,230.00 as oom- pared with $84,816.00 in 1940. There was an amount of $79,800.00 in De­ bentures outstanding in 1915. In 1940 this was $25,000.00 with a sink­ ing fund on hand to pay off the' de­ bentures whkh mature this year. HELD HERE FRIDAY The jury composed of P. T. Fleis­ cher, foreman* Thomas Hanlon, George Daniel, Walter Shelton and Leo Ranger, after considering the evidence at the inquest into the death of Mrs,’ George Russell, of Wood- stock, held in the Ingersoll Council Chamber, Friday evening, March 21, brought in the following verdict: “We, the jury empanelled to enquire into the death of Mrs. Susannah Russell, find that she-died of frac­ ture of the skull and injury to the brain within the confines of the vil­ lage of Beachville, having been struck by a/car driven by Mr. W.

The net profit for 1940 Mr. Hall said was $3,952.58 and the position of the Commission was most excellent and the rates enjoyed by Ingersoll were as low as the average to be found throughout tin; jy tfvmce. Following his introduction by Mr. Hull, Mr. Langford reviewed the his­ tory of hydro and spoke briefly of its. eost comparing it to-day with former years and declaring that the aim of the Provincial Commission was to re­ duce it until it would cost but 1c ’per KW. hour. Mr. Langford spoke of the develop- ments of hydro from 1906 until the date of the picture, "The Bright Path." The film depicted the magni­ tude of the Ontario Hydro system by showing through moviijp pictures, ’most of the forty-six generating stations throughout the province, maintenance at the huge generating plants and also maintenance at the pole lines which help to maintain the continuous hydro service which we all enjoy. The film, also coVeretjj con? struciion in the northern parts of Ontario, showing supplies being sent in to hydro -plants by aeroplane j>nd barge in the summer and by tractor train in the winter. New lines being driven- through* virgin forest were also shown, and how trees were cut down, stripped and put up again as pole*.

President Clifford J. Hines was in charge’and there was a good attendance of the club mem­ bers as well as several visitors. A number of matters of business were transacted and reports of com­ mittee chairman presented. Several club members volunteered the use of their cars and offered to assist in the collection of salvage in Ingersoll along with members of the other ser­ vice clubs. Lion W. S. Ashman, chairman of the Sight Conservation and Blind Work Committee, reported that two girls had been already examined and fitted with glasses this year and two cases ivere at present under obser­vation of the doctor. Treasurer W. W. Wilford presented an encourag­ ing report of the club’s financial standing. Secretary, Dr. J. M. Partlo read an interesting letter from one of the club's members now serving with the R.C.A.F. Thomas H. Wilson was received as a new meniber of the club by Presi- |dent Hines, who welcomed him on behalf of the menibers. The guest speaker was to have been Captj Rev. Charles D, Daniel, Padre at No. 11 Training Centre, but word . was received after the meeting got under way that it would be impossible for him to be present. Thomas -Rogers, of London, a guest at the meeting of Lion Fred C. Moore, who served as a Captain with the Royal Engineers in India during the last great war and at the present time on the engineering staff of New Idea Furnaces, -Limited, Ingersoll, was invited to address the meeting, Mr. Rogers was introduced by the club president and gave a very in­ teresting tnjk expressing his views on "Canada’s Position after War.” From experiences gained while serving in ■ various parts of the world, Mr. Rog­ ers forecast what he believed is pos­ sible for Canada in the years to come after this ghastly business of war is over. —s ' He believed that the position of ’ the British Isles as the work shop : the Empire would be changed and the present trend to decentralize in­ dustry would be carried still fur­ ther, particularly in regards to the establishment of British manufactur­ ing plants in Canada.’ Mr. Rogers told from personal ex­ periences how cotton manufacturing, paint manufacturing and steel in­ dustries had been started in India during the last Great War as these products could not be imposed in any great quantity. - As the result these industries had been greatly hurt in. England after the war because of the competition offered from India wliere the most of the natural products used were to be found. # The speaker said as much as he hated to admit it, it was a matter of fact the British Isles would nevet/ be able to recover the trade lost be­ cause of the present conflict and through the decefitraiization. of in­ dustry. However, other parts of the Empire” would benefit and England of the future would be a spiritual and cultural centre of the Empire in­ stead of the workshop. "All things point to Canada,” said Mr. Rogers, as being the first country of this vast British Commonweath of Nations, instead of continuing in a state of stagnation as aha did previous to the war, becailse of the ability of Jwr factories 'and farms to produce more USEDCARS 1938 CHEVROLET DELUXE SEDAN 2—1937 CHEVROLET DELUXE COACHES 1937 CHEVROLETMASTER COUPE 1938 FORD COACH, Trunk, Radio, Heater *1939 DODGE CUSTOM COUPE 1931 DODGE SEDAN 1929 FORD SEDAN 1928 FORD COACH 1939 CHEVROLET 1 TON DELIVERY 1937 CHEVROLET ftTON DELIVERY 1939 FORD Mi TON DELIVERY S1932 FORD B4 ft TON• > >100.00. 1937 CHEVROLET 2 TON TRUCK—Stoke M y.

TEMPTING WAYS TO SERVE EGGS When the composition of eggs is considered, it is apparent that at current prices this good food yields high returns in nutrition for money spent. Eggs served in any of the ways in which they may be cooked, are enjoyed by most persons, and there is a satisfaction in knowing that when eating eggs an appreciable contribution to the needs of the body is made. Eggs resemble meat and .poultry in composition, as all of these foods contain a percentage of the tissue building substances—proteins, and considerable fat. The yolk of eggs is rich in iron^JBggs also con­ tain other essential minerals and vitamins. The Consumer Section, Marketing Service, Dominion Department of Agriculture, suggests a few ways of including more eggs in the daily meals. Eggt in Noodle Ne»t» 2 cups narrow noodles 6 cups boiling water 2 teaspoons salt, 1-2 cup milk 1-4 teaspoon pepper 2 tablespoons melted butter 1 cup grated cheese 6 eggs Cook noodles in Water to which 1 teaspoons of salt has been added, until tender—about .15 minuy*s.

It is not aimed to transfer industries- from one place to.another, but rather to create new industrial centers throughout Can- ,ada where such , action is possible and where it can be distributed due to new development of resources, power, etc. It is understood in Ot­ tawa that this survey will include the tar-sands of’Athabasca where it is said that Canada has the largest oil reserves in the world. TOO MUCH INFORMATION WAR FACTS OF According to the story circulating along Parliament Hill now, the Gov­ ernment’s advisers Relieve that too much war information is being nought in Parliament, often super­ fluous in nature and consisting of the production of great volumes of information about the Canadian war effort. However, there is no sign that ‘this policy of giving informa­ tion about the progress of Che na­ tion’s war will be changed at the moment since the Government is placed in the delicate position be­ tween not desiring of being accused of refusing- information to Members of Parliament and at the same time not desiring to disclose any inform­ ation that might of value to the enemy?' SET-UP TO FIT WAR’S NEEDS FOR COMPULSORY MILITARY SERVICE As a result of a tense and heated debate in the House of Commons, it has become known in Ottawa that the four-months compulsory military training plan would not only be fully adequate to the present needs of home defence but by calling, out one age class at a time there would te a minimum disturbance to the_jn- dustrial supply of labor, with the Government emphasizing that this is a vital point in the set-up of the national resources mobilization jftheme in peifect tune with the re­ quirements abroad and the needs of the Canadian Army. • making ''Lend-Lease Bill” of the United States in so far as the legis­ lation may affect Canada’s war effort from the political, economic or psy­ chological angles, yet just as it was reported exclusively in this column over a year ago this momentous de­ velopment is bound to influence ex­ act delineations of the undertaking, with the rcactioif -behind the scenes along Parliament Hill being* that it will greatly accelerate the entire war effort and propagate beyond the original plans, particularly producing the effect of political dynamite even jp the highest circles. At one time, it appeared that such . gigantic aid . was nothing more or less than a false apparition, but to-day there is not' the slightest doubt that its poten­ tialities as well as practical infer­ ences are of a kind that cannot be foreseen even by the authorities in! the capital of Canada, though it is possible to report some remarkable influences along Parliament Hill as a direct result of this spectacular "Lend-Lease Bill.” Contrary to public opinion throughout this country, this "Lend- Lease Bill” docs not mean a bclter- medt of the exchange situation, nor nor does it mean that pleasure travel .to the United States will be allowed. Of course, the Canadian Government can now be eligible to borrow cer­ tain things in the United States, but for the present all signs in Ottawa indicate that this nation will con­ tinue to buy and to pay tor allarticles. This means that exchange will be needed now just as much as in the immediate past. Moreover, there will be no disposition in Ot­ tawa to relax any of the exchange regulations, particularly for pleasuie trav'el since this is classed as a luxury and the new way of life in Canada will aim to discourage all luxuries in order to make a supreme war effort. However, this "Lend-Lease Bill” will bring t£p/spectacular develop­ ments which the man-in-the-street may not learn from official reports but which nevertheless should pro­ duce favourable effects in this coun- SWALLOW PILLS If you feel alujfgiah, depressed,liverish or are inclined .to constipa­tion—just try thia treatment fortwo weeks: Take enahgh Kruschen,to cover a dime, in warm water everymorning.Nothing could bd easier to take,and Kruschen is n*t harsh, but is a mild, gentle laxative.Constipation is Caused mainly bylack of moisture ih the large intes­tine.

In the second place, the "Lend- Lease Bill” will allow President Roosevelt more power than any pre­ sident of the United States has pos­ sessed in the, entire history of this great nation. That was the real point of contention over this Bill. There was no isefious objection to aid the democracies >n the dispute over the "Lend-Lease Bill,” but the argu­ ments revolved over the greater per­ sonal powers that are granted in this enactment. As far as Canada is con­ cerned, a hint of the likely effects of this new personal power of the President can be obtained when it is remembered that President Roose­ velt, Prime Minister King, and the Canadian Minister to United States, Hon. Leighton McCarthy are all close, personal friends. Under the Consti­ tution of the United States, the F;"e- sident has two great personal pow­ ers that legislation cannot affect, namely, to conduct the foreign re­ lations of the country and to act as Commander in Chief of the Anned Forces of the nation. In other words, the President is the sole au­ thority to direct and to employ the forces in times of peace and war, with the result that his constitutional authority permits him to command the forces in whatever manner that he sees fitjinder the circumstances, such as to provide convoy by the Navy of merchant shipping. Further-! more, and of an equal importance, is MOMENTOUS REACTIONS IN OTTAWA TO U.

It must be remembered by all that the key­ note of the American foreign policy as disclosed in this latest legislation •is to uphold the Monroe Doctrine as promulgated by President Monroe to j the decision of the highest Court .of the Congress of the United States on 1 Justice, the Supreme Court of the December 2, 1823, with the principles 1 United States, that admits that the stated therein, being in essence » appropriate, to the situation of t day as they w'ere to any that gave frise to thi$ famous, historic, declar- i ation. Consequently, to avoid/any I misunderstanding in the world in ] general or mistrust in the Western i Hemisphere, including Canadt/in this , sphere, the Roosevelt-Hull Good ] Neighbour Policy forms an essential j part' of the* "Lend-Lease Bill” as a i primary objective, aiming to obtain j by force or persuasion a policy ] whereby all nations in tho New | World will be led progressively to- | wards piactical solidarity in the ec- - onomic, political and psychological j fields as expressed in . the Monroe , Doctrine and as implemented in the i Declaration of Lima, the Declaration < of Panama, and the Act of Havana. , It means' that there is no ^lesire to , change -the present' status or way of i life in the democracies of the West- | era Hemisphere, with United States < leading in the strategic struggle against the ideals of totalitarianism, , particularly in the economic or fin­ ancial Warfare. Since the losa of European .markets, trade dislocations or exchange difficulties have caused many ,problems in this Hemisphere <>n account of the war, United States must undertake new obligations. With this in mind, the United States can finanotehuge loans through the Export-Import Bank and the ■ Treas­ ury, which have a fund of $500,- OOd’.OOO for such venture*, or Uncle Sam can finance exchange stabiliz­ ation operations, such as those which have taken place In Argentina, Uru­ guay. Uhile, Veneiucla, Colombia, ete., without affecting the sover­ eignty or internal policies of these nations. In the case of Canada, such financial distance could be given in' the same manner. In fact United States is very much concerned w^th every economic reaction in Canada fa k -greater extent tten that of <-v«ry otter nation in the world te- . suae more te*Mwa has been done- ' between these- two countries since i 1927 than between any other two j /’resident alone is the constitutional representative of the nation iyith re­ gard to foreign powers. That d«is- ion was made in 1936, and it is bound to be used in the' "Lend- Lease Bill’s practical application in various directions, especially in any emergency. Finally, the statutory powers of the President have been greatly increased or implemented so that he could curtail or prohibit ex­ ports, requisition materials denied ex­ port, regulate foreign exchange, con­ trol shipping restrict the business of banks, regulate or close broadcasting stations, place, mandatory orders for materials with any .business, order any plant refusing orders .to comply with hij request, establish priorities for essential materials, suspend labor conditions, relating to government contracts, pnd ‘so forth. In’short, the President's personal powei-s have been raised to a very high point'of constitutional authority. While official announcertepts or reports may not disclose It, yet in usually well-informed circles along Parliament Hill ft is held* that the “Lend-tease Bill”- of the United Stales will bring spectacular results to Canada's war effort 'as well as to that of the other democracies, espec­ ially in view of the plenary powers of the President under thTa^historic enactment. —1 Reproduction Prohibited,) HAVE YOU ANY WOOL? Certain commodities increase manyfold in value in wartime, not only from a financial standpoint, but economically, as well. Wool is one of them—The millions of men and wom­ en in the defense forces need it in large quantities, their efficiency partly depending on bodily comfort. The North Atlantic and the North Sea are always cold, so that those who guard those areas require warm clothing summer and winter. Industrial workers on the factory front require warm clothing also, with a wear and tear far greater than the peacetime routine entails, more frequent renewals are neces­ sary. Civilian forces, ambulance drivers, fire-fighters, air-raid wardens, mech­ anical transport workers, all require wool clothing, as much of their work is done at night when chill winds blow and physical vitality is low. Bombing victims, elderly people and children, those deprived of their homes, require fresh supplies. It can be seen how really tremendous are the requirements for wool alone. Such being the case, it does not seem right that even the st particle should be wasted. Lite ..... cat, it seems to have nine lives, and can be reconditioned over and owr again to make useful artiejes. Faded, shrunken, moth-eaten woollen gar­ ments can be skillfully transformed into beautifully soft, warm blankets. Who could destroy, or carelessly use a piece of wool, knowing that it could be used to.make a warm cover­ ing for some one bereft of every­ thing? It has been reported that after one air-raid in a certain district in Eng­ land, twenty thousand blankets were required for the victims. That gives some ? >a of the tremendous quanti­ ties of supplies required, and in that case, the Canadian Red Cross Sup­ ply Depot was happily able to meet the need. The Norsworthy Chapter, I.O.D.E. collects wool for blankets. Please save all pieces of wool of any kind, knitted goods, hosiery, ends of yarn or textiles; all can be profitably util­ ized. Members of the Chapter will call for them.Linen, too, is urgently required for surgical dressings in military hos­ pitals. The more linen available for such purposes in Canada, means the release of greater quantities of com­ mercially prepared dressing for over­ seas use. Any kind or quality of linen is ac­ ceptable; coarse or’fine—the former may be placed between layers of the latter to make pads. So, donations of old linen will also be gratefully received by the Nors­ worthy Chapter. EBENEZER MOSSLEY The Mo*dey east side euchre clubwas defeated by the Dorchester clubon Monday evening.

All shoes, whether for men or wo­ men, should well-fitting but not too ‘ tight, he asserted. The wearer’s toes should not touch the end of the shoe, but should have freedom of movement. He recommended rub­ ber heels to absorb the shock in walk­ ing. The feet should be tended as care­ fully as the hands, said the speak- 'r | er, and in much the same way. They e should be washed each night, dried, and massaged, a drop of olive oil or some baby powder 'being used so that fingers will slip over them. Blisters should receive especial at­ tention, said the speaker,, because aIn adult life, h? declared, care of . broken blister is a potential focus of I sociaj and crokiftple ^me' the feet was of the first importance . , | <]ay visjiinp W1(b Mias J to general comfort and health. ’ In this connection he deplored the tend­ ency of women’s footwear to sacrifice comfort* for style. Usually, he de­ clared, women's shoes are too narrow, their soles are too thin, the toes too pointed’land the heels outrageously high.Narrowness in a shoe is conducive to bunions, corns,, and sometimes over-riding and hammer toes. Point­ edness in the toe draws the line of the foot outward and may cause flat feet. Excessively high heels cause an undue load, on the arches, which may brcAk down under the strain. He suggested that many women who at- infection and may lead to serious tumble. “By the jade Budda of Temple Shan Chi; honored friend of my heart,” said the Chinese business man, “1 have lent a tricky mandaiin In Canton Street 2,000 Mexican trade dollars, and he has not given me a receipt.
