U. S. A.. J2.M' NATIONAL SALVAGEORGANIZER ADDRESSESKIWANIS CLUBJ. O. Laird of Windsor, ProvincialOrganizer for the National SalvageCampaign was the speaker at theregular weekly meeting of the Ing­ersoll Kiwanis Club held at the Ing­ersoll Inn on Thursday evening last.Kiwanian E. H. Albrough, chair­ man of the Local Salvage Commit­ tee, was chairman of the meeting and the speaker was introduced by Kiwanian Joseph M. Wilson. Repre­ sentatives of the Ingersoll Lions Club, the Ingersoll Y's Men's Club and the Canadian Legion who with the Kiwanis Club are in charge of the collection of salvage in Ingersoll, were present at the meeting. Lieutenant Donald Mackenzie, a member of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club and at the time of his enlist­ ment for active service, one of the Club’s directors, was a special guest. Lieutenant Mackenzie who recently returned to Canada from overseas to act ns an instructor, addressed a few words to the members and ex­ pressed his thanks and appreciation for the boxes sent him by the club | and other Ingersoll organizations • while he was overseas. He mentioned X that ’he had seen Kiwanian Capt. Charles D. Daniel before leaving England and Captain Daniel wished to be remembered to the club mem­ bers and his other friends in Inger- *>11 and district. The speaker of the evening, Mr. Laird, said that almost everything that was formerly thrown away now had some value and should be salvaged. Metals, rags, papers, rubber, fats and bones were mentioned as items that were most important, In re- ' . yards to the salvaging of glass and tin cans the speaker explained that tins were* not practical unless they eould be collected in sufficiently large enough quantities to make the collection worth while. Mr. Laird placed particular em­ phasis on the importance of salvag­ ing rubber and declared that it was necessary that anything that bad live rubber in it be turned in wjth the salvage collections, as there iwas a great scarcity of rubber until syn­ thetic rubber could be produced in sufficient quantities to take care of the need for the product for army vehicles and in the production of war necessities. The speaker also advocated the salvaging of all old guns and war relics from the last Great War and mentioned that old wire fencink was ^salvageable fo rthe metal it con­ tained. At the conclusion of Mr. Laird’s talk the thanks of the gathering was tendered to him by Kiwanian Alex. C. Wilson, Henry E. HingeCalled By DeathA well known and highly re­spected resident of North Dorches­ter, in the person of Henry (Harry)E. Hinge, passed away at his home,Lot six, Concession three, NorthDorchester, on Sunday evening. Mr.Hinge had been in failing health forthe past year and his condition hadbeen serious for ten days.The late Mr. Hinge who was inhis.65th year, was born in England, and came to this country as a young man and for 35 years had been engaged in farming in this district, where his genial and kindly manner had won for him scores of friends. He was a member of St. James’ Anglican Church. Left to mourn the passing of a dearly beloved husband and father, are his widow, two sons, Cyril of North Dorchester and Leslie of North Oxford, and two daughters, Mrs. Thomas Allison of Woodstock, and Mrs. Leslie Hadcock of De,re­ ham Township, to all of whom the sympathy of their many friends is extended.

Merifield, rector of St. James’ Ang­ lican Church, assisted by Rev. A. J. Waterman of Avon. The very large attendance at the sendee and the profusion of beautiful floral tokens, bore testimony to the high esteem in which the late Mr. Hinge was held. Interment was made in the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery, the pall­ bearers being Messrs. Alex. Rose, John Lee, James Jackson, Thomas Crosby, Allen George and Emmer­ son Crockett. Centipedes are beneficial. They eat only flies, live insects, roaches, and will not touch insect powders. The wren does not range far from its nest. One pair was obser­ ved for a day coming and going from the garden bearing insects to their young. In an hour they made from forty to seventy-one trips with an estimated total of six hundred insects for their young during the course of a day. Marion Leola Quinn Bride of Raymond Layton Salford — A quiet, but pretty spring wedding was solemnized at the United Church parsonage, on Saturday morning at 10 o’clock, when Marion Leola, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Quinn of Salford, was united in marriage to Raymond Ernest Layton, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Layton of Mount Elgin, the ceremony being' performed by Rev.

APPEAL MADE FORLOCAL BLOOD DONORSAn appeal has been made by theBlood Donor Clinic at Victoria Hos­pital in London, for volunteers fromIngersoll. Since the Canadian RedCross inaugurated • its Blood DonorService in January, 1940, thousandsof patriotic citizens have made vol­untary contributions of their blood.This vital gift of Canadian civilianshas saved and is saving many lives among the armed forces and the bombed ’civilians. Today with the tempo of the war rising, the need is greater than ever. The blood don­ ated here in Canada, is processed and shipped to locations where it may be required in the form of pooled and dried blood .serum. The procedure to be followed for those desiring to enlist as Voluntary Blood Donors is simple. Contact should be made with Dr. C. A. Os­ born, president of the Ingersoll Red Cross Society, or the names of: those wishing to become donors may be left at the office of the Ingersoll Tribune. After enlisting, and when your blood is required, you will be noti­ fied by telephone or otherwise, at least three days in advance of your appointment and the exact time and place of this appointment will be confirmed by post card. The Clinic at the Victoria Hospital, London, is open every Tuesday morning and transportation will be provided for donors if necessary. The actual taking of blood is painless and, if you are in average good health arid between the ages of 21 and 50, there is practically no possibility of ill effect. A local anaesthetic is 'Riven, the arm punc­ tured with a needle and 420 c.c. of your blood, (about five sevenths of a pint) taken. The procedure takes only about fifteen minutes and you will be pble to return to your work or home after a "Short interval. C. C. L. S.

THURSDAY, APRIL 9. 1942___________ Farmers’ Income Higher in 1941 Farmers’ cash income from the sale of farm pro­ ducts in 1941 was 18.5 per cent greater than in 1940, and the highest for any year since 1929, states the latest issue of the Current Review of Agricul­ tural Conditions in Canada. Increased production and better prices for live-stock and animal products have brought income from these sources to the highest levels on record. Although the income from ■field crops was the highest for any year since 1929 with the exception of 1939, the wheat situation con­ tinues to depress farm income in the Prairie Prov­ inces below the average level from 1926 to 1929. In 1941 the income of Western farmers was supple­ mented by the Dominion Government under the Wheat Acreage Reduction Policy, Prairie Farm Assistance Act, and in the form of special Prairie Farm Income payments. Milk Fat To Be Same As In 1941 As a means of conserving milk fat in Canada makers of ice cream and sherbet will not be allowed, on and after April 1, 1942, to manufacture these products in any one month in greater volume than was made in the corresponding month of 1941, states Order No. 38 of the Dairy Products Board just issued. The Order of the Board further states that the quantity of ice cream mix or sherbet mix to be sold for domestic or export use in any one month on and after April 1st shall not be greater than the quantity sold in the corresponding month of 1941 nor must the quantity of milk fat used in the manu­ facture of ice cream or sherbet be greater in any one month after April 1st than was used in the corres­ ponding month last year. Iron Vitally Necessary In Family Diet Everyone in the home needs iron, from the child­ ren to the pet canary. A nail in the canary’s drink­ ing water is alleged to bring back his interest in life and song, while iron in the family's diet prevents nutritional anaemia. Nutrition Services of the Department of Pensions and National Health advise that the following iron- rich foods be included in the week’s menu: liver, heart and kidney; whole grain cereals; dried fruits, such as prunes and raisins; dark green vegetables; potatoes cooked in their skins, and egg yolks. Liver, heart and kidney are not always popular foods but there are many good recipes available for disguising them and making them appetizing to look at as well to eat. A mixed grill of liver and kidney, a steak and kidney pudding, a baked stuffed heart, are all good ways of serving these iron-rich meats. Red currant jelly or a crisp green salad make excell­ ent accompaniments. It is well to remember that molasses, which is a popular sweetner, not only supplies heat and en­ ergy to the body, but also contains iron. Keep the Press Free Now when Canada is in such fearful peril of her life, it is difficult to consider anything besides the victory’ at arms upon which all else depends. But lovers of freedom must pay attention to the sharp changes taking place in the business of the free press. There will be less advertising this year, which means there will be fewer daily and weekly newspaper* and periodicals. Some of these will be only mildly misled; but alas! some sturdy editorial voices will be stilled, and the realm of the gods of misinformations, less hindered in their expansion, will extend farther in December than they now do in April. There will be less advertising because each day there are fewer things to advertise. Trade names must be protected, advice must be given on how to lengthen the life of articles'in the hands of the pub­ lic, direction must be promulgated on new methods of purveying necessary' merchandise, and institu­ tional advertising must be carried to help keep the wheels of war industry turning—but when all this is done there will still ibe less advertising than heretofore. This is a hard blow' to a business which has seen the downward trend in advertising rev­ enues continue for years, but the hardest blow would be a changed attitude of the Federal taxing author­ ities in regard to the allowance for advertising ex­ penditures of corporations. This would cause a new and sudden crisis on top of all the rest. It would put the issue of the freedom of the press clearly be­ fore the Canadian people. How are we to maintain our newspapers? Not by subsidising them—for then they would lose such precarious freedom as they now enjoy and we .might be as well off without them. Greatly increased Gov­ ernment advertising with the taxpayers’ money is subject to the same objection. The only guarantee of liberty for the press is that it have so many ^sources of advertising revenue that it be subservient tx» none. The Federal Administration doubtless has been looking at the problem of newspapers. This is a prob­ lem that goes deeper than business profit *»r business failure. Newspapers are an industry that bells »ub- seribera to advertiser*, hut they are also an institu­ tion by which our country rises in light or falls in darkness.—The Printed Word.

High taxes help to guard the country against unreasonable rises in the cost of living: They divert money from un­ necessary spending for peace-time goods to Government spending for essential war-time material Saving money, practised by thousands of thrifty depositors has a similar effect: It helps to keep prices from soaring by decreasing the demand for non-essential, peace-time commodities. Mr. and Mrs. Harold G. Hall spent Easter with Mrs. Bain in Woodstock. Mrs. T. A. King of Woodstock, spent Tuesday in Ingersoll.

To the half truths and misconcep­tions about raw and pasteurizedmilk, Frank Chamberlain replieswith a factual article in Health theofficial magazine of the HealthLeague of Canada.“Since Ontario pasteurized itsmilk by law,” states Mr. Chamber-lain, "there has been a striking re­duction in the incidence of diseaseknown to be connected with rawmilk.”Mr. Chamberlain quotes Dr. AlanBrown, physcian-in-chief of the Hos­ pital for Sick Children, as saying: “Scientific pasteurization* absolutely prevents the 15 to 20 per cent of bone, gland and abdominal tubercul­ osis in children which is of bovine origin, and in addition prevents all milk-borne epidemics. The prevent­ ion of these conditions alone would save many lives, numerous cripples and much money for the tax-payer each year.” , Besides tuberculosis, unpasteur­ ized milk spreads such epidemics as Typhoid, Paratyphoid, Scarlet Fever and Septic Sore Throat. The write/ cites an instance of epidemic septic sore throat, an epidemic which where an outbreak of 10,000 cases was traced to one raw milk supply. "Uniformed people oppose pas­ teurization because it supposedly damages milk, destroying calcium and vitamins—that it spoils the taste,” he'writes. He denies any truth to such statements. Pasteuriz­ ation does not alter the calcium content of milk. Vitamin C, which prevents scurvy, is said to be redu­ ced slightly by pasteurization. Vita­ min D which prevents rickets—is not affected at all. "But,” Mr. Chamberlain points out, "in any case there is not enough of either vitamin C or D in cow’s milk to Emerson Jeffery of Hamilton, spent Easter with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Jeffery.

You can. secure your requirements of vitamins by eating each day: 3 glasses of milk. 6 slices of vitamin-rich bread with butter. (Whole wheat bread, or white bread made with special flour or with special vitamin-rich yeast.) 1 serving of meat. 1 egg. 1 serving of potatoes. 1 serving of green-leaf or yellow vegetable. 1 glass of tomato, orange, or grapefruit juice. 1 serving of oatmeal porridge or whole wheat cereal. Cooking rules that retain a max­ imum vitamin content in foods are stated to be: Don’t overcook green vegetables, always pour boiling­ water on vegetables to start cooking and don't use too much of it; save your vegetable water for soups; never use soda.

"The gain is in improved health. The gain is in lives saved. The gain is—in_ healthy children who might have been crippled. The gain is in the re­ duction of the cost of sickness. “What Toronto and other cities have gained in public health through the pasteurization of milk is on rec­ ord in the offices of the Medical Of­ ficer of Health in those centres. What Ontario has achieved through its compulsory pasteurization law can be gained through the records of provincial hospitals throughout the province. When the public through education, loses its apathy and ignorance concerning the dis­ eases that come through milk-borne germs, the other eight provinces of the Dominion will speedily demand that their children, too, be pro­ tected.” Mrs, Harry Walker of Port Arthur was the guest of Mrs. Charles B. Scoff in, »Oxford street, for the week-end. Edith and Arthur Angood of Ingersoll, spent Thursday and Friday at the home of Geo. House, Mount Elgin.

When Sir Wilson Jameson, Chief Medical Officer of the British Min­ istry of Health, was in Canada re­ cently, he said "nutrition will win or lose this war.” A recent survey of food condi­ tions in Europe by the Inter-Allied information committee revealed that * famine and starvation are facing the occupied countries of Europe. These countries are being systematically pillaged by the Nazi* to provide food for the German people and their armies, the committee declared. The Greek government in London said the German pillaging program in Greece is resulting in an average of 900 deaths a day from starva­ tion. “One whole generation ap­ pears to be already doomed,” in Greece, said the report. The committee, basing its state­ ment on German official pronounce­ ments, artkies and news in the Ger- man-contt<olled pres* and evidence obtained from persona escaping from occupied territories, revealed that in France there are trains leaving for Germany every day, loaded with food, while the French go hungry. Ration* are most adequate in Cze­ choslovakia, where many of Ger­ many's vital war industries are lo­ cated. If the workers were not fed well, it would slow down Germany** vital flow of munitions. In Poland, dog meat bring* 11.78 a pound and cat* $4.45 each. “Ill- health, disease and death from star­ vation” are report* nunpant in German-dominated countries.

There are now in the Canadian armed forces at home and abroad about 15,000 to 16,000 U. S. citizens, including 9,000 to 10,000 in the army, 6,000 in the air force, and 42 in the navy.

In­ deed, the new mobilization orders, the numerous regulations to control commerce, industry, and the rela­ tions between capital and labor, the rationing of certain materials, and the restrictions of luxurious living have caused great changes in the life of the average Canadian, but what is sure to follow now wilf af­ fect much more every family in this I 8O’», each » VARIETIES LIBBY’S TOMATOCATCHUP LIBBY’S SWEET MIXED PICKLES - LIBBY'S PREPARED MUSTARD LIBBY’S HOMOGENIZED B Under normal circumstances, about 50 per cent of tin used in Canada is consumed in the production of tin­ plate.

CONSULT THE DIRECTORY country involving revolutionary changes in the way of. life such have never been witnessed before in the entire history of Canada. It has been no secret for a long time on Parliament Hill that there was no full satisfaction in this im­ portant matter of manpower and woman-power organization, includ­ ing inadequate plans for training, faulty distribution of services, wrong ideas about rehabilitation of persons in bad health, and no defin­ ite remedy for the shortage of farm labor in practically every part of the country. But as this nation moved closer and closer to the front lines of the war, it became obvious that objective selective service was necessary. Therefore, for many weeks it was an open secret in the nation’s capital that a “man-power” sub-committee of the Cabinet, con­ sisting of Hon. C. W. G. Gibson, and Hon. Louis St. Laurent, was studying carefully this serious prob­ lem, though it was known that the Labor Department, under the new Minister, Hon. Humphrey Mitchell, would be an important part of the machinery. The average Canadian must rea­ lize that there are actually eight objectives in the idea behind the priority of use of man-power and woman-power.’First, there is a de­ sire to mobilize gradually all poss­ ible human resources. Second, it is aimed gradually to replace men with women where this is possible. Third, there must be a balance between supply and demand of labor. Fourth, essential peace-time ser­ vices must be maintained. Fifth, full provision must be made against any possible enemy invasion. Sixth, armed forces must be created for overseas service. Seventh, war in­ dustries must obtain all necessary labor requirements. Eighth, food must be supplied to this nation as well as her Allies and the farmers’ labor problem must be solved with­ out much delay. While the Government's much, wider mobilization plan involves de­ licate issues in several directions, yet cMcntally and immediately there is no doubt that the farmer’s labor problem may prove to be the most serious of all, especially because somehow or other the average Can- dian, more so in urban centers, has failed utterly to realize that object­ ive selective service in this war must be planned for production of food upon which fully as much em­ phasis is placed as on the armed forces. In other words, it mut be recognized by the average Can­ adian and it must be done quickly, that, under present circumstances, a small nation like Canada with a pop­ ulation of about 11,500,000 and a tremendously big coast line of thou­ sands of miles to defend, together with the gigantic war obligation to feed herself as well as her Allies, cannot wait upon those who are ig­ norant of this problem, theorize, speculate, or fool with red tape. Objective selective service is something new in Canada, but this is aot so in the United States where already it is planned to mobilize sixty-nine million people or about half of the population, comprising ten million for the armed forces, twenty-four million in defense in­ dustries, ten million in Civilian De- fenae, five million in transportation and twenty million in farming- en­ terprises. In fact, the operation of the selective service system in that country in regard to the farmers’ labor problem provides an import­ ant experience for Canada’s guid­ ance since it is begin ing to appear as if the appeal to the farmers to raise more food than ever this year and the certainty of good prices will not necessarily cause a record pro- s sS. 1 B I S 15? 19? 10?

CJ eDrip Cried Tia ALL PRICES Effective Until SATURDAY NIGHT APRIL 11th, 1942 duction on account of the serious labor problem, with the farmers claiming that the trouble can be traced to the faulty operation of the selective service system. In actual practice, it has been discovered that deferment of -essen­ tial farm’ help as a matter of right has not worked out well, being de­ pendent upon the caprice of the local boards, and on the other hand, it is claimed that industry, not con­ scription, is chiefly responsible for the discontentment and faulty opera­ tion of the selective service law. It is estimated that $5 per cent of those leaving agricultural employ­ ment have entered industry and only 15 per cent have been taken into the armed forces. Higher wages are the inducements. Furthermore, an in- crease in farm wages, bringing them up to the level paid the unskilled worker in industry, might remove the discontentment or change the trend of labor movement, though at present it is impossible for farmers to meet the industrial scales. A cum- parison of farm wage rates with the average hourly pay scale of the unskilled worker in industry indi­ cates dearly that the factory hand could equal the daily farm wage by working only two to five hours. This is a bad condition, and if the United States as well as her Allie* are to have sufficient food, a prac­ tical remedy must be discovered. While Canada has adopted certain laws in an effort to avoid farm labor troubles in the new mobilistion or­ ders, yet the experience in actual practice of the United State* in re­ gard to selective service and farm labor cannot be ignored by Cana­ da, particularly because any poss­ ible discontentment of such a large and important section of the popu­ lation as represented by the farmers of this country if not a good thing for the public morale at a time when moral* must be kept at the highest 23c PACKAGE 65c 2 9c OXYDOL PACKAGE CLASSIC CLEANSER 2 in 1 SHOE POLISH 10c JAVEX Concentrated Jaoel CAMAY TOILET SOAP MAPLE Leaf Soap flakes 19c lOe«. 1 AfBettie ■ Save On Paper Supplies Let’t All Do Our Part . . .

If the objective selective plan of Canada is to succeed, the application of the law must be in tune with the spirit behind the regulation. There is no doubt on Parliament Hill that in time this will be accomplished,' though initial difficulties may arise as the way of life of the average person undergoes great revqlu. 4ionary changes which will affect temporarily every family through­ out Canada, producing more import­ ant news from the nation’* capital than it is generally expected-— (Reproduction Prohibited.) Mrs. John Moon Passes Away Suddenly A widely known and highly es­ teemed resident of Ingersoll in the person of Annie E. Moon, widow of the late John Moon, passed away suddenly at the family residence, 77 Catharine street, on Tuesday even­ ing, March 31st. Although she had been in failing health for the past five years and had been confined to her bed for a considerable period she had been up and around the house the day of her death and her passing that evening came quite un­ expectedly. The late Mrs. Moon who was in her 71st year, was bom aLMitchell, Ontario and for the past 54 yean had been a resident of Ingersoll, where her cheerful and ever-kindly nature had endeared her to scores of friends, who deeply regret her passing.

LongPage 4Fertilizer SubsidyIs Now Obtainable Can Still BuyBrand New Cars THE INGERSOLL, TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, APRIL 9, 1942In a sustained effort to increaseyields in crops vitally needed forthe production of war food, the Do­minion Government has set aside$1,000,000 to encourage Ontario andEastern Canada farmers to usechemical fertilisers on certain spec­ific “war crops." In other words,, thegovernment wil pay part of thefanners’ fertilizer bill as a subsidyon crops providing food forstock and poultry.The farmer must guaranteeany fertilizer obtained undersubsidy will be used only on tures; clover, alfalfa and grass crops; field corn for ensilage or husking; spring wheat, oats, barley and spring mixed grains for grain production; mangels and turnips for feeding live stock. The regulations provide penalties for use. of subsid­ ized fertilizer on crops other than the above war crops. Subsidies will be paid on pur­ chases of not less than one-quarter ton of any one kind or analysis of fertilizer and not more than five »ons to any one farmer who must bby for his own use and not for re­ sale.There are six different combin­ ations of fertilizers eligible for pur­ chase as well as fertilizer chemicals. The amount of subsidy is based on 40 cents per unit of nitrogen and 20 cents per unit each of phosphoric acid and potash. For example, a farmer buying a ton of fertilizer containing 2 per cent nitrogen, 12 per cent phosphoric acid and 6 per cept potash, will have $4.40 deduct­ ed from the net cash price by the vendor who will be reimbursed by the government. -The subsidy may be obtained only through fertilizer manufacturers, their agents or dealers. These deal­ ers have forms which must be filled out by them and signed by the pur­ chaser. Farmers who wish to take advan­ tage of the subsidy and who want further information should write E. K. Hampson, Provincial Supervisor of Subventions, Dept, of Agricul­ ture, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, or consult their nearest Agricultural Representative. Fertilizer dealers in each district also have cofries of the regulations. Toronto—So long as they are foressential transportation purposes,Canadian motorists can still buybrand new cars—yes, with four newtires on them—and get a gasolineration book, too.So declared Howard B. Moore,general manager of the Federationof Automobile Dealer Associationsof Canada, in a statement the otherday, following receipt of reportsfrom widespread sections of thecountry, indicating that erroneousstatements had gained momentum to the effect that all new cars had been “frozen” and that purchases of new vehicles had been banned. “The facts are,” said Mr. Moore, "that the motor vehicle controller has placed some 4,000 cars into what is termed an ‘official pool’, and none of these cars can be sold by dealers without permission from the Motor Vehicle Controller. Those cars are being held in stock for later release, on orders from the Controller, and only then, to those engaged in health and fire fighting services, maintenance of police ser­ vice and such essential purposes. But outside the ‘official pool' are thousands of other cars, manufac­ tured before the stopping of car production, which have only recently been delivered to show-rooms. These cars are for sale, without restrict­ ions. U. S. Government regulations "freezing” cars in United States are believed to have resulted in misin­ terpretation of the Canadian situa­ tion, -Mr. Moore said. There are sufficient new cars on the Canadian market today to sup­ ply the “necessary” requirements of purchasers for many months, it was learned. The cars are spread out in fair proportion in all parts of the Dominion, making them available in all areas. Car dealers of Canada, from the commencement of transportation problems, have been co-operating closely with the Motor Vehicle Con­ troller, and have assured him that precautions will be taken to see that cars are mAI only for “essential” transportation purposes.

He will use 'his car only for essential business. He will take every care of his tires, and use his car so as to extend the mileage over as long a period as possible. Essential war industries would suffer preatly if all cars were laid up." It was pointed out that there are thousands of high grade used cars, with good tires on them, in excell­ ent repair, available in markets across Canada. The supply is good particularly in urban centres, but dealers stated that shortly a heavy demand for used cars in ruarl areas would reduce the stock of used cars in cities and towns. So, if you want to buy a brand new car, for essential transporta­ tion, or trade in your present car for a better used car, there’s nothing to prevent you. Mr. Moore, in concluding his re­ marks, strongly endorsed the motor vehicle policy laid down by the fed­ eral government, and pledged the co-operation of car dealers across Canada. Wisdom is not always, or of nec­essity, the perogative of thosewhom the world calls wise. Manypeople, who attain to no particularwealth of thought, are very wise intheir handling of everyday prob­lems, sometimes much wispr thantheir so-called cleverer brethren,who may have absorbed much book­learning and yet have neglected thelessons that are learned only as one passes along the highway of life, such wisdom, the wisdom of the common run of people, is acquired by slow degrees and chiefly through experience. Man adds to his physical stature little by little and not by deliberate­ ly setting out to do so. He absorbs food of all sorts and this food makes eventually the bone and flesh, the muscle and sinew that add to his bodily stature. He grows by degree* and only by degrees, and any at­ tempt on his (body's part to upset that slow growth ends in disaster. A cell that multiplies too quickly, a gland that loses its delicate bal­ ance, a bone that greedily accretes to itself too much substance, each of these throws the whole body out of gear, to its ultimate doom. A wisdom, greater than the greatest of ours, ordains a slow growth, a slow accretion, a deliberately slow adding to man’s stature throughout his growing life. What is true of the body is equally true of the mind. Wisdom grows slowly. It is the outcome of man's absorption of lessons taught by experience, his own particularly all men’s in general, and only as he absorbs does his wisdom grow. It isn’t cleverness; it isn’t to be con­ fused with a love of learning; nor is it a readiness to grasp intricate problems, or a desire to shine in some particular field of arts or let­ ters, but simply an ability to ab­ sorb the food for thought, the com­ mon, everday variety of fare that falls to the lot of all men as they travel along life's road. Such food often is not pleasant, has a bitter or biting taste, but being absorbed, it serves its useful part and adds its little to the mind stature. We are by each experience the wiser, the nobler, for having taken it, even if not liking it. The slow growth of wisdom ac­ counts in part for so many of our mistakes. We are not grown suf­ ficiently, either spiritually or men­ tally, when some disorder overtakes us. We react violently, but that ex­ perience absorbed sets up a corres­ ponding immunity and we are that much belter able to meet success­ fully a like disorder the next time. So it is that the young are seldom wise, for their experience is limited to their years, and so it is, unfor­ tunately too, that the wisdom that comes with age is of less use to the man of years, for having lived out his life and become old, he is no longer liable to meet with the dis­ tempers of youth, the hot tempta­ tions of stirring young blood, that hates all things slow, that yearns for action, quick action, and bestows little thought on the wise words of warning that fall from the lips of those aged and ripe in wisdom. Russia’s famous Cossack cavalryare receiving a steady flow of vet-1erinary supplies for their horsesfrom Britain’s Royal Society for thePrevention of Cruelty to Animals.In response to a request fromthe Soviet Union for £40,000 worthof veterinary supplies, receivedthrough the British Government,the Society is now raising £100,000to meet this and the further needsof Russia's armies.Already a wide variety of sup­ plies have gone to the Soviet Veter­ inary Corps. They include two lots of acriflavine for dressing burns; quantities of Canada balsam for healing wounds; arekiolin hydrobro­ mide for the removal of tape worms; trypan blue to combat the trypan parasite which causes fever; and bis­ muth tribromphenate, a substitute for iodoform in surgical dressings. Cedar oil, used for microscope work, is very scarce, but Britain has bpen able to send small quantities of this too. In spite of mechanisation, Russia has more horses in the war than any other nation. Apart from the Cossack cavalry, used so effectively at so many points on their vast war front, supply trains, made up of wagons and sleighs and drawn by horses, are now playing an import­ ant part in the Russian advance. Between six and ten wedding rings of platinum will supply the electrodes for the sparking plugs of one aero engine, brides are therefore leaving the al­ tar with rings made of palladium, a metal named after the plant Pallas, from Pallas Athene the Greek god­ dess of knowledge whose image the ancients believed brought good fortune. British jewellers like the metal because it works quite as easily as platinum. In engagement rings it holds the stones securely and with its untarnishable brilliance brings out all their fire and colour. It is Tndt-ed proving ideal for all kinds of rings, and also, as it is about 40 per cent, lighter than platinum, for cigarette and vanity cases, brace­ lets and Other articles where light­ ness, strength and beauty are de­ sired. Pure palladium, like pure platin- ium, is too soft for jewellery work, so it is being toughened by the ad­ dition of small quantities of rhodium and ruthenium, two even more pre­ cious metals of the platinum grotfp. In this state it is called by the trade Ker ba palladium which goes to Britain chiefly from Canada, Kerba palladium costs £7,10.0 an ounce, as against £9.0.0 an ounce for jewellers' platinum, but, as it is so much lighter, it goes further. In value it is comparable with 18- curat gold, and it is much more de­ sirable because even in the alloy state it is precious metal through­ out.

It is made of a bright yellow rub­ berised material in two parts—com­ bined trousers and overshoes and a hood and coat, The coat sleeves are long enough to cover the hands, and slits in the trouser legs allow the limbs to be taken out easily massage. The hood is used as a car­ rier for the complete outfit, which weighs 3 lbs. 6 oz* It is to be worn in lifeboats or on rafts and its bright yellow collar shows up the shipwrecked to rescue ships and air­ craft. The inventor is Mr. Thomas Met­ calfe, O.B.E., who is Administrative Principal in charge of the life-sav­ ing appliances of the Ministry of Transport, The electric light fitting now used for life-saving waistcoats was also Mr. Metcalfe’s idea: the light is clipped to the collar strap, and the watertight battery, lasting for ten hours, is kept in a pocket. The Society of Arts has awarded Mr. Metcalfe a £50 prize for Tils shipwreck suit This prize has been given annually since 1926 for inven­ tions "advancing the science or practice of navigation": last year it went to the inventor of portable radio equipment for lifeboats. It is a bequest from Thomas Gray whose father wrote the well known rhymes for teaching seamen the rules of navigation, including the familiar "Green to Green, or Red to Red, Perfect safety—go ahead!” iected 100,000 tons of waste paperi for munitions. This record quantity was amassed by displaying to the public how the British industry turns the dustman's waste paper into ammunition for the guns: chewing it up by hot revolving knives, converting it into a thick liquid in huge containers which come out at last in long clean sheets of cardboard. One used envelope is transformed into a cartridge wad; 12 old letters become a box to hold cartridges; 6 books, a mortar shell container; 2 lbs, of waste paper make 448 wash- era for rifle grenades. Bren guns, Lewis guns, 2 inch mortars, Vickers guns, ‘Tommy’ guns and ordinary rifles are all now using in their ammunition the re­ sults of Britain’s record drive. AVON Mrs, B.

This was announced in a joint statement by Jackson Dodds. Chairman of the Central Council, and Mr. Justice P. H. Gordon, Chairman of the National Executive A the Canadian Red Cross Society. “The Canadian Red Cross Society needs urgently a minimum of $9,- DOO.OOO, in order to carry on its work for the current twelve months ,’mn the mitigation of human suffer- ‘ .ng,” the statement declared, con­ tinuing, “This ,is the first appeal since October, 1940, to the volun­ tary generosity of the Canadian people. “The Government of Canada re­ cently arranged to supply the funds needed by various War Service or­ ganizations, .but the Canadian Red Cross Society was necessarily ex­ cluded from that arrangement. The reason for this is that the Red Cross Society is International, its position rests upon the Conventions ■f Geneva ratified by Act of Parlia­ ment These require the Red Cross Society to be supported by voluntary subscription and it is only by main­ taining such support that the Can­ adian Red Cross Society can com­ mand the rights, privileges and im­ munities guaranteed under Interna­ tional Law. No belligerent govern- ment may finance the Canadian Red Cross Society; to do so would be to destroy the International status of the Society and even wipe out its immunity under fire. “Throughout the whole of the period since the October 1940 cam­ paign, the Canadian Red Cross So­ ciety has enjoyed unexampled co­ operation at the hands of the people < f Canada, the press, the radio and the motion picture industry. Thou- ’•ands of women in all parts of Can- / ula have worked faithfully and un- emittingly to supply the Red Cross Society with the materials that it needs to take care of the require­ ments of Canadian soldiers here and overseas, and to look after the seeds of the sick and the suffering among the bombed-out population •f Britain, and to prepare for what­ ever eventuality may befall Canada itself. “It is only through the Canadian Red Cross Society that any Canad­ ian can do anything for a Canadian, British, Australian or New Zealand prisoner-of-war. It is only through »he Canadian Red Cross Society’s In­ quiry Bureau and its facilities for international investigation that in­ formation may be obtained as to missing Canadian fighting men. It je only through the services of the Blood Donor branch of the Red Cross Society's work that those Can­ adians who are unable to fight, can supply blood to make good some of that shed by our fighting men over- .seas. The Red Cross is shipping 40,000 parcels to prisonent-of-war each week and ha* been asked to in­ crease these -.hipments to 80,000 per week. The cost of supplying prisonere-of-war parcels this year alone is more than 15,000,000. “The Red Cross Society needs ( now 19,000,000. With its campaignkrtarting on May 11th, it will pursue an intensive canvaaa in which it Mopes to reach every Canadian and to afford every citizen a patriotic . opportunity to give to a noble auae. "We realize that the time for preparation la short, and that every Branch and every Division of the Red Cross Society in Canada will require to work unremittingly—in some eases alnamt night and day— to be ready in time for the open- I ing of the drive. “Any more protracted period of preparation would conflict with the war financing needs of the Govern­ ment of Canada itself. The Red Cross Society is desirous of co-oper­ ating with the Government in every possible way. Therefore, the cam­ paign must begin on May 11th. The active canvass is designed to con­ clude on Saturday, May 23rd. Dur­ ing those two weeks the Society hopes to collect at least $9,000,000 in cash and pledges from the Can­ adian people. “We earnestly appeal to Canadians everywhere to prepare themselves now to answer the call and to fill this most urgent need.” ANNUAL REPORT OF DICKSON’S CORNERS’ LADIES AID SOCIETY The annual meeting of the Dick­ son’s Corners’ Ladies Aid was held on Wednesday afternoon, March 25th, at the home of Mrs. A.
