Prof. Edward G. Pleva of the University of Western On­ tario, London, Addressed -Club Meeting. c A most interesting talk on Green­ land was given at the regular weekly supper meeting of the Ingersoll Ki- wanis Club at the IngersolPlnn, on Thursday evening last at 6.15, by Professor Edward G. Pleva, a native of Czechoslovakia, now on the staff of the University of Western On­ tario, London. Kiwanian Henry I. Stewart, vice- president of the club, was in charge of the meeting and the speaker was introduced by Kiwanian Clifford A. Love. Prof. Pleva reviewed the attention that Greenland has received in the press since it was considered as a stepping stone for Germany to the Americas after Denmark came under German domination. The speaker said the island was the second largest in the world ranking second only to Australia. It had an area of about 750,000 square miels and was about the size of the Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. It was about 1600 miles long and varied in width from its southern tip do about a third of its length ’pt its widest part in the f north. On the island’s coast are re­ markable fjorded areas that stretch inland nearly 100 miles in some places. The surface of the country was described as a desert plateau, but the speaker pointed out that it was not the coldest country in the world des­ pite the fact that it was located in the Arctic circle. It was known that the temperature dropped to *as low as 65 degrees below zero but this was not to be compared to pointe in northern Siberia where records had shown the temperature as low as 93 degrees below zero. There were no agricultural possi­ bilities for the island, although cer­ tain vegetables were grown there during, the summer. The seal, and the pMar bear were the main sources of meat, but there were also some ■mailer animals such as goats, sheep, Arctic hare and latterly some cattle had been introduced on the island. Contrary to opinions of many people, Prof. Pleva declared, there were no forests in Greenland and the tallest trees, were only a few feet in heighth. The country was nearly 9 5 covered by ice and the popula­ tion numbered only about 16,000 natives and 500 Danes. Greenland was discovered by the Norse about1 the end of the 10th Century and be­ cause of the over population of Ice­ land,' people were induced to go thereto settle. It was not until 1721 ^/Hat the first modern settlement ap- 'peured on the island and in the 18th century convicts were sent out as colonists to the country. Prof. Pleva pointed out tiiat from the standpoint of the people of Can­ ada the Island of Greenland has be­ come important during the part year and we should do all we can to learn more about the country. He referred to the fact that the Governments of the United States and Canada will be stationing garrison* on the island during the coming summer in the. joint defence plan fdr the Western Hemisphere. The speaker also touched upon the fact that the people depended for supplier from other countries for their sustenance and now that they were cut off from Denmai*k, Canada and the United States would have te be responsible for the transporta­ tion of food to the island. This would be aaaurod beoouae of the fact that the United States' were planning to build airports on the island and would have to rend sup- ph«» to Greenland to take care of th* troops that would be stationed Mrs. Basil Wilson, West Oxford Township, was hostess Monday even­ ing to a well attended meeting of the Victoria Auxiliary of the W.M.S. of St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church, Ing­ ersoll. Mrs. H. H. Turner, the presi­ dent, opened the rneetng with a very inspiring devotional, service. Medita­ tion hymns were played by Mrs. C. L. Bole, after which Mrs. H. Hi Turner offered a beautiful prayer. Mrs. Roy Mayberry then conducted the devotional exercises assisted by Mrs. Basil Wilson giving the Bible reading. Miss Janet McKellar gave the topic, “God is Love," and a prayer given by Mrs. Howard Gray. Two lovely piano solos were played by Miss Marion Wilson and were much enjoyed. Miss Hazel Leth­ bridge then gave a reading, “General Board of Missions", taken from Glad Tidings. Miss Ethel Simpson fav­ ored u’ith a most beautiful hymn, “Garden of Prayer.” A lovely read-, ing, “Words of King George V", was given by Mrs. Turner. Miss Ethel Simpson then sang the theme song of Great Britain, “There’ll Al­ ways Be An England,” with the members of the.W.M.S. taking part in the chorus. ' Reports of the various Committees were given and the meeting closed by ringing “God Save the King” and repeating the Lord’s Prayer in unison. A social time was then spent and a dainty lunch served by Mrs. Basil Wilsoto, Miss Janet Mc- Kcllar, Miss Hazel Lethbridge, Mrs. Howard Gray and Mrs. Roy May- The next meeting will be held on June 2nd, at tjxrbome of Miss Edna Currie, when a full attendance is re­ quested as this will be the closing meeting of the Auxiliary until Fall.

The ceremony was performed' by the rector of the church, Rev. Mr. Bracken. The couple were attended by Miss ■ Adelaide Stockil, sister of the bride, and Morris Dixon, both of Toronto. FbllQwintf the ceremony, a re­ ception was held at the Old Mill for. the immediate relatives and friends.

Noad, first vice-president, presided for the 3Jay meeting of the Welcome Circle of the King's Daugh­ ters, held lasf Thursday afternoon at the home of Mrs, M. Walton, King vtreet east. The reading from "The Silver 'Cross,” was given by Mrs, Walton and a' reading, "Jesus, Our Example in our Work," by Mrs, W. J, Rowland. Mis* Edith Leigh contri­ buted very enjoyable vocal solo* with Mrs. Gordon .Manxer aa accompanist.

The regular monthly meeting of the Lady Dufferin Chapter, I.O.D.E., was held in the Armouries, on Mon­ day afternoon, May 5th, Mrs. C. K. Long, Regent of the Chapter, pre­ siding. After several items of busi­ ness had been attended to, Mrs. Long presented a very fine report of the Annual Provincial Meeting held in Hamilton Ryland New of Oak­ ville, is they. new president of the Provincial Chapter. Many very inter­ esting reports .were given and splen­ did addresses were on the program. One of these, by an English lady, now a resident of Canada, told of the enormous amount of work accom­ plished by the women of England. One of a committee of seven, headed by Lady Rending, selected by the Baptist Women’s'-.Union, she told of the splendid organization, covering every part of England. Their first project was the planning for evacu­ ation (this 5yas before the war be­ gan) V.A.D. services, salvage col­ lections and other wprk. More than 146,000 .women 'have enlisted for training in the various departments of war work to be done by women. In the salvage campaign, over 2000 | ton^of aluminum were brought in, but the most important part of the organization was the training of women from all walks of life to work together, forgetting differences of class and opinions in a common aim. Professor Kirkconnell of McMas­ ter University, wah the speaker at the banquet, having been given the first I.O.D.E. Bursary, he has always had an especial interest in the Order. He gave many unusual and interest­ ing facts—ten out of every 12 schol­ arships in the West go to foreign bom students, or those whose par­ ents are from a foreign country. Many times these students have to learn the English language before they can ever commence their stu­ dies. He also told of a Polish and an Icelandic Chapter of the I.OrD.E. doing a splendid' work id the West and North. The diaoipnd bracelet went to a gentleman in Sanlt Ste. Marie and from this draw the splendid sum of $13,395.00 was realized. All Chapters were requested to assist wherever possible, the welfare work of local organizations, especially in connection with child welfare, also to take some part in teaching the English language to foreign wortten. Children are taught in the schools and the men seem to find some in­ struction while at work but the wo­ men have little or no opportunity to oecome acquainted with our language unless such teaching is brought dir­ ectly to them. This report was very much en­ joyed by the members and their ap­ preciation was expressed to Mrs. Long. Several articles were received for the Red Cross from Mi*. Harvey, also a donation of two lovely crib com­ forters. Mrs. Harp«-r had .* fine re- , port for the war knitting and more wool wasjfistributed. Plans were made for the* annual ’ Empire Day Tea whicly will' be held in tffe Ar-, mouriee, thia will, be "of special in­ terest this year as it will be the For­ tieth Birthday of the Chapter.

Russell Hall was the commanding officer of the corps and to him, his platoon commanders and other offi­ cers a great deal of credit is due. The instructors, Mr. W. C. Wilson and Mr., G. W.

Hersec, Woodstock , officer commanding the Oxford Riffes and Major J. C. Herbert officer com­ manding “D" Company Oxford Rifles, the former Cadet Instructor at the Ingersoll Collegiate. A particularly fine display of phy­ sical training exercises and pyramid building was given in addition to the Company and platoon drill and exhibition by the signal corps. Major Aitken in addressing the boys said he was impressed with the work of the Corps. The discipline was particularly good and marching and drill would do credit to many military units. Medals were present­ ed to winners in the D.C.R.A. by the inspecting officer. Principal C. L. Bole congratulated the boys on the interest they had taken in the Cadet Corps this year and commended the work of the instructing officers. Major J. C.

They are not strangers to us. They are our own. They are our fathers, our sons, our brothers and our cousins. They belong to us as we belong to them. War or no war, we would be thinking of them; their problems would 'be our problems as would our problems be their problems. Because of our love for them we would be happy to help them. But now it’s war and as they are in the thick of it, it is up to us to help them all we can. Our prayers are always with them,' prayers that ask for nothing more than that they will be ‘spared and returned to us real soon. Prayers are powerful forces. So are guns and ships and planes. These guns and ships and planes are needed—our fathers, our sons, our brothers and our cousins need them badly. The speed with which they get them has every­ thing to do with when they will return home to us. We want them back and if our giving some guns and ships and planes will do the triek, we are going to give them all they want. So let’s be personal about this war. Let’s make it a family affair so that we can get our Canadian family together again. It’s too bad that we cannot each build a plane in our attic and send it overseas.Plane construction requires skill; it requires materials Individually, we possess neither the skill nor the' ma­ terials. As a nation we possess everything. Your government is asking you to invest five per cent of your current income in Wdr Savings Cerifi- cates. It is a loan. Your government is asking for the use*x4 your money so that your dad or your son or your brother or your cousin can do the job as he seea it and come home. Since loaning to the gov­ ernment all the money we can spare will help bring our family home, what are we wafting for? Gordon Chambers spent Suqpay with his sister, Mrs. Lemon in St. Thomas.

The present world struggle from an American viewpoint:— “This newspaper has repeatedly pointed out that the present world struggle is the physical manifesta­ tion of mental and spiritual conflict*. We have said many «times that defense is first of all a spiritual activity and that primary reliance must be placed in the weapons which are nqt carnal—in the power of right and justice. Daily it becomes clearer that those who perceive the true nature of the struggle are armed against the confusion and defeatism which menmerize* all who see only the material might of military machine#. Grounded in some measure on spir­ itual bases, they, are prepared to do whatever is necessary to defeat the evils of totalitarian oppres­ sion and aggression. Whatever is necessary may involve military action. Those closest to the evil tried appeasing it. And . many sincere pacifist* hoped it coudl be overcome by moral and spiritual resistance. One surrender after another—Manchuria, Ethiopia, Spain, Czechoslovakia —resulted? Gradually men found that it was neces­ sary to express the spritual qualities of justice, cour­ age and freedom in physical defense. Almost too late they took their David’s sling and stood to meet overwhelming odds. As the world-wide nature Of the struggle has developed, people, farther away, *uch a* the Yugoslav* and the Greeks, have had to take their stand. Today the United States faces the iieue squarely. For many months the American people have been building up their military pow.er. Now for perhaps the first time they see a situation in which’ if they are to -make effective their part in the defense of freedom they may have to use their navy and. air force to protect delivery of aid to those who resist aggrer^-.on. Various methods arc offered, zpeh a* the patrolling of sea lanes on the western side of the Atlantic, or the relieving of British ships npw guard' ing-Singapore. But more and more it appears that, actual convoying may be the only.sufficient answer. Secretaries Hull and Knox have just declared bluntly that ways must be found to insure delivery of aid to Britain. Mil^arjr-and ‘naval experts agree that convoying looks hkfe^the surest step. There is a wide belief that convoying’ mean’s open, hostilities. The American people should be told frankly that hos­ tilities are very likely to result whenever Berlin feels that the gain from them would offset the galviufliing of American effort* which would result. It is possible' that even the exchanging of shots between an American destroyer and a Nazi submar­ ine would not produce war in the familiar meaning of the word; There were plenty of similar exrhangea during ‘the "mm intervention" episode of the Span*' ieh eivil.war without Britain or France declaring war on Gentiany_of' Italy. War, might not come unless th? American people masted on’ declaring it Yetom.’ymf nrfte definitely rite’war than any Aep America ha* so far taken,^iiueh ** seizure o f shipv.repair of British or establishing of bear? in Greenland.

The true prevalence of rheumatic infections is unknown, because the malady is not, like scarlet fever, diphtheria, typhoid fever and oth­ ers, reportable. Rheumatic infection introduces us to heart disease which with the co­ incident blood vessel disease leads all others in the list of public killers. Rheumatic fever ranks high among the most severe diseases; it is not so amenable to prevention as syphilis and tuberculosis. So far we lag in our efforts to control this crippling disease. Begin in School* Our efforts in the control of rheu­ matism must begin in the schools. Examinations of children in schools has uncovered some appalling facts; 80 per cent of the total organic heart disease of school children has a rheumatic origin. This becomes an important problem when we consider that 3 out of every 100 children are sufferers. Rheumatic conditions seem to be more frequent among persons living in poor hygienic surroundings. The facts indicate that poverty, malnu­ trition and unhygienic surroundings are the most favourable for the de­ velopment of rheumatic infections. Growing Pain* Children in families living under the aforenamed conditions are apt to complain of “growing pains”; ' they fail to gain in weight, have un­ explained f^ver and' may exhibit functional heart murmurs. The first attacks occur between the ages ot 5 and 12, the peak coming at about 7. They are rare under 2 and un­ common after 40. Recurring Attack* A feature of rheumatism is its habit of recurrence; attacks are apt to be repeated with damaging results to the heart. Old Theory There is an old theory that cold and damp predispose the body to rheumatic fever. This is probably ex­ plained by the fact that there are •» more colds, grippe and tonsillitis in cold and damp climates. Prevention is the slogan in rheu- Vnatic fever. The child with growing pains, grippe, tonsillitis and sinus attacks should promptly be put to bed; he should remain in bed until well. Infected tonsils and other foci of infection should be removed. Children should be well fed, clothed ah cared for. It will pay handsomely to check the onset and course of rheumatic fever. ' The death* took place on Friday afternoon, of Thomas M.

From Ontario Department of Health When man realized that pestilence could not be satisfactorily explained as •manifestations of divine wrath, he began to associate filth with the causes of disease and stumbled, on the emential truth that the health of an individual was linked closely with the wholesomeneau of his envir- ontnent. The-«pring clean-up has thus a val­ ue about the aesthetic point of view in health to the family group and „ the community at large. Sanitation, as it is known today, goes back to Mosjis who more than 3,00fi years ago fcftmulated .a code which today is reco>iized as scientifically sound. An integral part of spring clean­ ing is the act of taking stock by the family and community grtiups of their positions in sanitation. Surface wells are a community as well as a family problem, because of the dis­ ease danger existent in pollution. I* the well property lined and ia it fit­ ted with * tight cover?

Know What You Sow Good Sound Advice After spending much time in pre­ paring a seed bed, many farmer* neglect the one operation in con­ nection with crop production over which they have the greatest con­ trol namely,-the seed which I* sown, states John D. MacLeod, Crops Seed* «nd Weeds Branch, Ont. Dept, of Agriculture,' Toronto. There is no "ekcuse ■ for , sowing “feed grain”, dr * “dirty grain’ in Ontario when over IK) seed cleaning plant* are conveniently locate! throughout the province and are prepared to give 24 hour service until seeding is over. Your Agricul­ tural Representative has a list of men who have good seed grain for sale, so write or see him at once, "Re­ member that to produce profitable crops of hikh quality, the best var­ ieties and the best seed of those varieties, properly cleaned, graded and ,treated for disease mu*t be sown" said Mr. MaoLeod. In pomting out the necessity for clean seed grain, Mr. Mio.L<u<1 re­ called 43 sample* of grain taken from 43 drill* in a township in thia province a few years ago. One wheat sample showed 209. weed seeds per pound amounting to 20,000 weed reeds per acre at the average rate of seeding. An oat sample showed 25.000 weed seeds being sown and a barley sample of 37,060 per acre. One farmer wto sowing 75,000 Catehfly seeds per acre and another 40.000 Twitch Gras* Seed*. One can easily see 'the folly of sowing grain that haa not been through a fan­ ning mill or seed cleaning plant, aaya Mr, MaoLeod. “Know what' you sow”.i» good business and sound advice at all timea A man revisted his old home, which he had had to sell to a rich man because the expenses were too heavy. “And how is my ancestor, the ghost, who used to walk up and down the stairs all night?*’ he asked.’ “Oh, ’im,” said the new owner, who had had the place modernized, **’E don't give us a wink of sleep, ringing for the lift!"

This committee has no intention to examine all contracts or expenditures since there are over 100,000 contracts, totalling well ovfer $700,000,000, and it .would re­ quire at least a full year to look in­ to them thoroughly.

Indeed, along Parliament Hill it is expected that the Hyde Park declar­ ation of complete co-ordination of United States-Canadian aid to Brit­ ain will be more important than even the famous Ogdensburg declar­ ation that established the historic and precedent-breaking permanent joint Board of defence for the two countries. In other words, it is not ruled out that sensational actions may be taken by high ranking Uni­ ted States officials in the coming weeks in order to provide effective and quick aid to shatter the nerves of the dictators, with Canada’s name being in these headlines.

' LONDON Several months prior to any offic­ ial announcement, it was reported ex­ clusively in this column again and again that there were hints behind the scenes along Parliament Hill that the annual budget of the Federal Government for this fiscal year would contain a most urprsnal and surpris­ ing story' of tins' country’s need of money required to carry on its work and how this money is to be obtained, particularly since this annual state­ ment of the business conditions of Canada would indicate a desperate effort by the fiscal experts and gov- crnmental leaders to foresee the pos­ sible outgo of mdney and the pros­ pective income so that ' the ever­ mounting outlays in this national emergency would not cause any. dir- . ect or indirect inequality or dispar­ ity of responsibility amongst the masses. In other words, it**is an un. usual problem in this budget, but. this is an unusual period of this na-' tion’s history as the merry-go-round of various tax collectors come and f go, with the rank and file of the par­ liamentary leaders being unable ac-, curately to foresee the prospeAs or ■promises of the future, even for several months. Therefore, whatever is contained in a budget at this time it is essen­ tial fop the mig-in-the-street to bear in mind the fact that in normal periods it is possible for the Govern­ ment in Ottawa to estimate, with a certain degree of accuracy, what re­ ceipts or disbursements are necessary to support the state, but it is im­ possible to engage in too much plan­ ning for the long distance future or to discuss tangible subjects' in this wartime emergency. Under such circumstances, no judgment could be passed' on any item .in the budget without careful consideration of this extremely important ■ qualification. Moreover, while all indications to date point to larger returns or rev-, en’ues than ever before obtained by any budget -in Canada's history, yet the expenditures 'are certain to reach a peak tn the next fiscal year never before reached, with the remark that the tax-paying public of Canada must be prepared tor the sound and conservative statement that much njore money may actually be spent by or on behalf of the Government than it would appear to be the case by the immediate official disclosures, This h a theory which is usually free from error or fallacy in evalu­ ating a Government’s statement of possible expenditures' during wartime and history has corroboivted it on a 'great many xwcaslons. Then again, critic* have proclaim­ ed that Canada’* prosecution of the 'war was only a lukewarm effort, but this is contradicted by the analysis of the proportional expenditures of the various self-governing sections of CHARM FLOOR WAX SILVER CREAM TINS' 2 9 * 2 2 * STEAK & ONIONS SHORTENING 2 MAYONNAISE LOBLAW’S SERVE BY SAVING Comfort Soap Toilet SOap.

In 1938-1939, the percentages of national income spent for war purposes indicated 2.4 f c for Austral­ ia, 1% for New Zealand, 1% for South Africa, and ' 7.2% for the United Kingdom, with Canada's fig­ ure being 9<<. In 19394940, these same statistics indicated the percen­ tages to be 7'1 for Australia, 3.7% for New Zealand, 1.1'4 for South Africa, and 22'4 for the UnitedKingdom, witl^ Canada’s mark bel’i 3‘«. In 1941-1942, it is 'estimatea the percentages of national income which will be spent for war will be 16’. for Australia, 15’. for New Zealand, I6f't for South Africa, and 50', for the United Kingdom, with Canada spending r» lews than 9»?,5"r for the same purposes. In other words, the facts show that Cana4« may have made a rather slow start but now its effort exceeds that of all other parte of the whole Common­wealth, being second only_Jto^the Motherland which is located in the actual theatre of war-and which can afford to spend on a scale in excess of Canada, having regard to its re­ sources and population. Another significant point worthy of careful consideration is the popu­ lar notion that sinister influences lurk about in the shadows of Par­ liament Hill and these often prevent “plucking the gooSc where the feath­ er* are thickest However this vet- «etan observer in the capital ha* FUR NECKPIECES or FUR JACKETS IN SILVER /O X * Our W U b .. and rnamre with ia never been able to discover Attaint to justify »uch an opinion dJng all the years of his nadra-gathenng ae- tiritic* in this nerve centre of the nation. It ia a popular opinion, but it is vague and ill-founded. This hat been true regardless what political in a budget is based on experts of various departments interpreting the will of the people, and then pro­ ceeding to advise what policies shall be enacted on the beau of “ability to pay” slogans in all directions. This means that the social aspects or the human effects of enactments form- the real background of the im­ petus or equity behind every bud gotry item, though the application of this principle is seldom publicized. When hundreds of thousands of Canadians are toiling over their bud- ’ getary problems or when some critics of the budget are condemning cer­ tain enactments, they should bear in mind that Canada's percentage of national income being .pc’nt on war purposes is larger than that of any other Dominion in the Common­ wealth, that the provisions are based* On expert advice, and that it is the result of * scheme of “ability to pay*' guiding the legislators. Indeed, the man-in-the-atreet should not forget that a quarter of all Canadians live in fa^rffie. whose total family income is Lft-* than $950 a year; that it is . the duty, of every citizen to co-oper­ ate with the state so tfiat the whole .economic life hf the nation ia not upaet in wartime; that though the public health budgets of towns and cities iii Canada are wholly made- 1 quate to give proper medical pro­ tection to their residents, averaging 50 cents a person when they should I be st IreaC double that amount, yet - the money,is spent freely and quickly I Ort war objectives; that while farmer- have endured am unequal and iaade i quate share of tiw national mevme apprehensions...

A recommendation in the report of the Board of- Works Committee, at the regular meeting of the Town Council Monday evening, presented by it* chairman, Councillor Archie W. Clark, rejected the application of J. J. Clark and Steve. Perrault for the operation of music boxes and pin games and ordered that their cheques be returned. This was finally approved with only Councillor George Preston objecting, but not until Councillor Preston aired his views on the matter and was ruled out of order by the mayor. All members were in attendance at the meeting and Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray occupied the chair. Min­ utes were read and confirmed. A communication was received from Edward Mott applying for the posi­ tion of caretaker of the municipal buildings at a salary of $25.00 per week; fireman at $10.40 per month, and offering to sleep in the fire hall nights for $10.00 per month.

Councillor Preston voiced object­ ion to the clause in the report of the Board of Works rejecting the granting off licenses for pin gamesand music-boxes to ,Mr. Clark and Mr. Perrault. Councillor Morrison suggested Councillor Preston was out of order in speaking without moving a resolution to amend the report. This was done by Councillor Preston but he could not get a sec­ onder, and when he started to ex­ press his opinions he was ruled out of order by the Mayor. The report was adopted with only Councillor Pres­ ton objecting. ■ A number of resolutions were passed approving the payment of accounts. A motion moved by Councillor Morrison and seconded by Councillor Bower, ordered that the council re­ vert back to order of business, “En­ quiries.” Mr. Morrison explained this was to give Mr, Preston the privilege of expressing his views.

KERR THANKS COUNCIL FOR GIFT The following letter written in England on March 24th, has been re­ ceived by the Town Council from Signalman W. G. Kerr: "Just a few lines of appreciation and thanks for this lovely gift of a Waterman Pen and Pencil Set, which the Town of Ingersoll sent me. I certainly am very grateful lor the gift and am using the pen at the present moment, and it really works to perfection. We are still having the usual air raids. We get a terrific hammering for several nights then things ease off a bit. No matter how many of these raids we have, they certainly cannot break' the spirit of the stout hearts of these English people. Tlje weather has been simply grand here the last week or so, but quite different from our good old Canadian climate, which 1 think I prefer. However, we are getting moi'e or less climatized by now and if we stay much longer we may be natur­ alized too. The one thing we have in mind is to put tliis fiend Hiter to shame and destruction and return, home again safely, it sounds like a large chore, but we have all the confidence in the .world, and with that we cer­ tainly will never lose.

It dore so with ono of the largest single unified voluntary organizations ever active in Canad­ ian history. From coast to coast, Canadians in an astonishing variety ■of occupations are giving their time and effort to make successful the vast drive to conserve essential ma­ terials necessary for war industry. “The speed *ith whWh our organ­ ization has l>een set up, and the in­ tensity (witlr Which' *it is attacking Waste on the Canadian home front,” says William Knightley, campaign supervisor, “is one of the amazing thing# of this .war. The response has been most encouraging. 1 am sure we are going all out on this important contribution to ultimate victory.” Mr, Knightley drew your report­ er’# attention to some of the groups. of Canadians involved. There are the municipal officer* who are giving material support to the drive by donating civic collect­ ion equipment and by making public sheds and yard* available for salvage depot*, and who are giving moral public support in the form of advice and leadership. There are many ser­ vice clubs, like the Kiwanis, the Lion*, the RoUriana There axe all the -women’s organizations in the Local Council of Women, the l.O.D. E., the Red Cross, the Catholic Wom­ en’s Guild and several Jewish phil­ anthropies. The Salvation Army is organized for salvage in many cities £nd small towns. The Chamber* of t ommerce and the Junior Boards of Trade are giving active. support. Even Canadian young people, tha Boy Scout*, Girt Gtodea, and groups in many rural and urban schools - are in the line of battle on waste, Nor does the rojFrail stop here. Numerous industries and busi- neases are behind the drive. The junk dealer* are organised into the Institute of Secondary Material*, es­ pecially for .the w*r effort, and be- *ide* giving freely of their time and experience to make the campaign * eucceaei, they hare made arrange­ ments to keep the prices of salvaged carded aluminum pot or pan, and rneea, in which Um prwe of adsma- are Eater donating the material* thus collected to the nearest salvage group Othto par not ic V asuseM jeta «taaapfiv Jhripfoq saenaq material* at a fair level.

If our efforts match the efforts of the British drive, it will all have been very worth­ while.” Questioned regarding the drive on waste material* in the Old Country, Mr. Knightley released some sur­ prising figures. During the past 16 months the British have saved enough waste paper to fill 40 cargo ships. The paper was valued at $35,600,000. More than 250,000 tons of metal* have been contributed, from homes, thousands of. ton* have been rescued from scrap heaps, and other thous­ ands of tons have come from in­ dustry in the form of obsolete .machinery. Tl|e total amount of all the iron and steel salvaged in Britum is the equivalent of 16.000 tanka. “What the citizens in arms in em­ battled Britain have done,” con­ cluded Mr, Knightley, “aurely we Canadiaju-'can do. We have the or­ ganization. We have the oportunity. All we need now is the vision and the willingness to stick to it. I am sure we have those things, too!’’ BARRISTERS BARRISTER.Mortgage* arranged Bank BulkSouth, Ing ROYDEN G. BARRISTER Stellie Office. Rolagereoll, PhiW PHYSICIANS • H. G.

He was a life member of King Hiram Lodge, No. 37, A.F. & A.M., Ingersoll, and was a member of the former Ingersoll Methodist Church, and held many offices in the giving of that congregation,. w After leaving Ingersoll he went to Buffalo where he became general manager of the Curtis Screw Com­ pany. He later started a Twist Drill Company in that city and before re­ turning to Canada was for a time engaged in the manufacture of a patented steering wheel.’ He wax associated with the Ruddy Company in Brantford and later with com Vaniea in Stratford and Toronto, where he had made his home for the past several years. Mr. Coulter wa's married twice, his first wife. May Dundass, prede­ ceased hint in March, 1920.

NDKERCHIEFS WALKER STORES LIMITED The Prime Minister of Canada: “What have tor long been ominous probabilities, are now .upon us as stem .realities. The area of conflict widens every day; its intensity in­ creases every day; losses on sea, in the air and on land will continue to mount; the scenes of terror and des­ truction which live in the memories of many lands free, beleaguered and invaded, will be repeated and re­ newed. In steadiness of heart, of hand and of vision we shall find our present strength and the path to vic­ tory. If we are depressed by the pic­ ture of to-day or to-morrow, we shall be unworthy of our allies and ourselves. Wars of endurance are not lost by the accidents of a day, or a week or a month. They are lost only by the steady disintegration of the moral fibre of a people. The stuff of which the peoples of the British commonwealth are made is not that kind of fibre. Let us therefore calmly and confidentilv continue to look atthe facts steadily and as a whole, not bowed down by the failure of to­ day, not unduly elated by the suc­ cess of to-morrow. Let me say that from now on . as never before, it is of the utmost im­ portance that we should view the whole struggle in perspective, and seek to preserve a true sense of pro­ portion. We must be prepared for the extension of fighting over wide and wider areas, for a rapidity ot movement at times, and in other places, not unlike what we have al­ ready witnessed in the Balkan cam­ paign; and for an intensity and fer­ ocity of warfare resulting in terrific destruction and in heavy losses of human life. Regardless of where the conflict may spread or how rapid may be the movement of forces, or how intensive and destructive the struggle may become in other parte •of the world, we must keep ever in our mind the truth that so long as Britain stands no reverse' will be de­ cisive. Britain is fighting with every ounce of her strength, every* fibre of her being. We, in Canada, will strive more earnestly then ever to do oar utmost on sea, in the air and on land; to work to produce, to man- i ufacture, as we have never worked • and produced or manufactured be- 1 fore. The news received recently of the landing in Britain of further contingents of Canadian troops,’ and airmen trained in the great common­ wealth plan, should increase our confidence in the ability of Canada to help effectively in the decisive struggle. For the world it is re­ newed evidence of Canada’s determ­ ination to spare neither her material resources nor her manhood in the battle for the world’s freedom.— House of Commons, April . 28, 1941. for Mother’s Day G I F T S HOSIERY GLOVES f l o w e r s SCARVES GERIE Hello Homemakers! If -you thrill to the marrow, at the skirl, of the pipes, you’ll be sure to feel that one of the best reasons for oatmeal on the menu, is that most stalwart Scotch men were raised on' this nutritious cereal. A good hearty breakfastVill satis­ fy and build up energy for the whole day. A well made hot cereal seems to “stick to the ribs”- and a toasted cereal bread make th? thought of a hard job easier. Oatmeal may be used for either. Yes, oatmeal is ah old-fhshioned cereal, but it’s not always' in a por­ ridge bowl,, nowadays. If you are up-to-date on nutrition you* know how important it is to have a supply of this whole grain cereal, always on hand. Use oatmeal and 'rolled oats in pancakes, cookies, bread, biscuits, Scotch meat cakes, puddings, etc., and don’t forget to bring porridge up to date by hobnobbing it with Australian raisins or maple syrup.• • • AH cereals are rich in carbohy­ drates which supply heat and energy. But since there is no tissue building value, we suggest adding milk—or cooking in milk.« • • Rule* for Taity and Digeitible Cereal*: (1) Allow enough water to swell and soften all the starch. (2) Cook cereal long enough to swell starch and sbfton the fibre present, so that starch may be ex­ posed to the action of heat and water.(3) Coarsely ground or unground grains require more time to cook than finely ground ones. (-1) Cereals may be boiled direct­ ly over the heat; steamed, as in a double boiler or coofeed, in a well­ cooker. The first method is quickest, but requires attention, to prevc.nt sticking, even »/ when 'stirred fre­ quently. However, today the modern electric range provides fast heat to bring the water to the boiling point quickly and then with the closed element turned “Off” the cereal cooks. An occasional stir and a tigh^ fitting cover is required. (5) For each cup of oatmeal use 4 to 5 cups of water. This makes four cups of porridge. If you prefer gruel, add more water, for mush, less water is used. (6) Taste differs in. the amount of salt needed, but a safe rule is 1 teaspoon for each ’quart of water used.
