Ashman gave a very interesting paper on “House­ cleaning,” her subject dealing not' only with the literal meaning of the word, but with the broader aspects of it—the housecleaning of the world. A piano solo of a medley of Scottish airs by Mrs. Charles Pear­ son, was much enjoyed. Among the messages of thanks which were read, was a cablegram from Sgt. Pilot Howard Carr. It was reported that 24 boxes had been sent to boys overseas in the month of March. The report of the sewing commit­ tee showed the following completed work: 2 pairs women’s pyjamas, 3 pairs boys’ pyjamas, 1 man's conval­ escent shirt, 3 girls’ skirts, .2 girls’ blouses, 21 hankies.

ROE—To all points in Canada, Newfoundland, or the British Isles, $1.50 per year in advance. To the United States, $2.00 per year in advance. THURSDAY, MAY 7th, 1942 Conscription is Not Enough Now that the plebiscite has given the Government full authority to do whatever may be necessary to put Canada’s total strength into the war, it is permissible to point out that the voters on the two sides of the questions were in reality voting on two different issues. The “No” vote was, in the mass, a protest against the introduction of conscription for overseas service, whether necessary or not. The “Yes” vote was a mandate to take every action conducive to vic­ tory, including conscription. Whether conscription is necessary now, and when it will have to be introduced, are matters that may safely be left to the Government’s military advisers. It is sufficient to point out that conscription, in itself, will not satisfy the members of all political parties who have supported the Government on this issue. Because the Government has had the support of its political opponents, it now is under a duty to pay heed to advice and criticism that will continue to be put forward. Canada’s war effort to date has been creditable, hut the desire of Canadians is that it should be amazing. They are impatient with red tape, they are annoyed by petty restrictions, but they are en­ thusiastically willing to accept serious privations and to make real sacrifices if they are called upon to do so. The power to make that call is now unquestionably in the hands of the Government. It is still the task of His Majesty's loyal opposition to see that the power is used wisely, quickly and effectively. Is the registration of manpower going to result in the transfer of civilians from non-essential occupations to jobs that will help to win the war? Is our agricul­ tural programme the best that can be designed to feed our own population and our allies? Is the Government prepared to override interprovincial squabbles oh such matters as developing electric power on the Ottawa River? Will the Government set an example to the people by relinquishing'its own con­ struction projects when they are competitive with the war in manpower and materials? These questions have not been answered by the plebiscite, but the plebiscite vote should be construed as a demand for the right answer.—The Printed Word.

Accidents Hold Up Production Ontario industrialists are fully aware that safe­ guarding Canada's manpower is an essential part of the nation’s wartime production. This was proved at the annual convention of the Industrial Accident Prevention Associations which was held recently in Toronto. The sessions were attended by thousands of industrial workers and executives. The dele­ gates rfumbered almost 4,000 from five provinces of Canada and from five states of the Union and rep­ resented 129 towns and cities. A feature of the convention was an exhibition of industrial safeguarding methods and equipment. It was largely attended and delegates were able to study at first-hand every latest device and equipment invented to make the factory and office a safer place to work in. The retiring president of the associations re­ viewed the work done by the ten divisions in .Ontario and said that in 1941 there were 113,822 accidents as compared with 81,1 IS in 1940. In view of the fact that work pressure had increased and many more untrained workers were in industry, this was a creditable result. He said that the total benefits awarded by the Workmen's Compensation Board in 1941 were $9,898,893 compared with $7,282,877 in 1940. One of the convention speakers, reminded the dele­ gates that “Winston Churchill said that this war must be won in the workshops of the democracies,” and he declared "No workshop which has a high accident rate can have a high production. So it be­ hooves us to analyze our accidents, eliminate the causes and thus permit our factories to get as clo*e as possible to 100 per cent efficiency." At th© final rally of the convention with over 1,800 persons present, a prominent United States industrialist declared that what Canadians and Amer­ icans need is "a cold shower to wake us up.” He Mid, “Wt’re going to win this war on three fronts, on the battle front, the home front and on the factory front. If we divide these frpnts we are destroyed.” Miut Have Good Seed For Quality Potatoes A farmer can have no assurance of a good mar­ ketable crop of high quality potatoes unless he uses good seed, states a bulletin on “Succestful Potatoproduction m Ontario,” i«sued by the Ontario De­ partment of Agriculture, Toronto. Thia bulletin can be obtained from county agricultural representatives or by writing the Statistics and Publications Branch, Ont Dept of Agriculture, Toronto. It >s only by the use of good seed that Ontario farmers can hope to regain market prestige in this province, officials state. There should be no waste of food products during wartime, they point out and diseased Med potatoes will produce a poor crop withresultant waste. Farmers who have not purchased their seed pota­ toes would do well to immediately consult their sgricultural rspreaentativs a* to sources of supply in their own or nearby counties. The marriage of Etta I. Heron, daughter of Mrs. H. Heron, of Avon, Ontario, and Dr. Leva* of Chi­ cago, took place on Saturday, April Sth, in Chicago. Mr. and Mrs. S. Greenaway received word on Sunday that their son, Pt*. Russell O. Greenaway had been wounded and was admitted to No. 22 Gen­ eral Hospital, Camieres, on April 27th, Mr. Justus Miller, son of Mr. and Mrs. Austin Miller, Ingersoll, who for some time has been editor of the Canadian Countryman, has been appointed assistant commissioner of agriculture for Ontario. A quiet wedding was solemnized on Saturday, April 28th, at Woodstock, when Rev. D. Waller Christie united in marriage, Miss Nora McMillan, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John McMillan, Ingersoll, and James Collens of Woodstock. Mr. Thomas Winders received official notice from Ottawa that his son, Pte. Thomas C. Winders had been wounded in the anklo on April 26th, and ad­ mitted to the Norfolk War Hospital, Norwich, Eng­ land. Pte. Winders was also wounded in February, 1916, and spent six months in the hospital at that time. The annua) meeting of the Ladies Aid of the Mosriey Methodist Church was held in the church basement when the following officers were elected: President, Mrs. Thos. Lane; Vice-President, Mrs. W. W. Scott; Secretary, Miss Maude Barr; Treasurer, Mrs. W. J. Coates; Pianist, Mrs, J, Bancroft and Auditors, Mrs. Steele and Mrs. H. N. Spence. The Banner Sunday School annual meeting re­ sulted in the following being elected to office: Supt T. J. Leslie; Assistant. B. B. Crawford; Secretary, C. Carson; Assistant, J. B, Brown; Treasurer, D.

Suther­ land, Mrs. T. J. Leslie. Good health has become a patri­otic duty, according to Canadianmddical experts who point out theloss of manpower and workinghours suffered by the countrythrough illness, malnutrition, andjust plain lack of exercise.One medical writer recommendsthat everyone take some exerciseeach day—the younger you .are, themore exercise you need. He warnsthat the legs and wind should bekept in condition and that the arms should be strengthened through ex­ ercise. Balanced foods is another recom­ mended way to good health, milk, eggs, vegetables and some fguit once a day arc indicated. For pure reasons of geography, over-indulgence of alcohol is dan­ gerous, since authorities point out that the climate of North America is a bad one for drinking. We live in the most high pressure area on earth—the area where climatic con­ ditions make for the greatest amount of physical and mental ac­ tivity. The temptation to over-in- dulge is further stimulated by the fact that our standard of living is higher than that elsewhere and funds for such purposes are more available. Plenty of sleep and rest are sometimes as important as exercise and authorities recommend that good sense be applied in determin­ ing each person’s individual routine for health. An extensive new rehabilitation scheme is to be introduced to par­ liament in the new session, accord­ ing to Hon, Ian Mackenzie, Minister of Pensions and National Health, who revealed the project in a re­ cent Vancouver speech, He stated that the scheme includ­ ed land settlement plans for thou­ sands of ex-servicemen and went much farther than re-establishment plans after, the last war. Mr. Mac­ kenzie also revealed that a system of health insurance was being thor­ oughly investigated. Rehabilitation^ measures will include unemployment insurance for ex-servicemen as well as for industrial workers compul­ sory reinstatement in former em­ ployment, vocational training for fit as well as disabled soldiers, comple- | tion at the government’s expense I of interrupted education courses and physical reconditioning of those handicapped by illness in obtaining employment. Warnings that we must expect epidemics of infectious diseases are being given b/ medical authorities, who point to the influenza epidemic of the last year of World War No. 1 as an example of what may be expected. _ Some medical writers suggest that enforcement of certain precaution­ ary measure, difficult to achieve in peacetime, become more feasible in wartime. In ordinary times, univer­ sal enforcement, they point out, falls by the wayside because of in­ difference, carelessness and lack' of a common spirit of co-operation. An example of this, they indicate, is smallpox vaccination. Nobody knows how large an unvaccinated population we have. Health boards try to enforce it with indifferent, success. Every once in a while, when smallpox breaks out in a cer­ tain community, we are shocked to find that a large proportion of the population is unprotected. The same situation applies to uni­ versal typhoid innoculation; and in its current program for Toxoid Week, the Health League of Canada is endeavouring to bring diphtheria under effective control. One medical writer , drawing at­ tention to this situation recommends that the medical departments of civilian defence groups make it a part of their program to tackle this problem, particularly in relation to smallpox, typhoid and tuberculosis, Meeting of Trinity Friendship Group The regular meeting of the Friendship Club of Trinity United Church was held in the Church par- — From — THE CANADIAN RED CROSS SOCIETY" On Thursday, May 3rd, the annual meeting of the Methodist Ladies Aid was held.

RED CROSS ONTARIO DIVISION TRIMS SIGHTS FOR $4,500,000 Toronto—Starting May 11th, the Canadian Red Cross will launch the most intensive drive for funds in its useful career. The amount sought is $9,000,000 and of this sum, ex­ actly half is the objective of the On­ tario Divisftm. The fiscal year just passed was outstanding in Red Cross history for the reason that in a year when its war activities had been greatly in­ creased, the Ontario Division was able to meet all calls upon it despite the fact that no general appeal for funds was made. The credit for this accomplishment ‘ rests with the various branches throughout the Piyvince, which, through their own fund raising efforts, have largely financed their local workrooms and contributed generously to the Div­ ision. The sum of $763,011 was contributed by the branches, proof positive that the public sympathy of the people of Ontario is loyally be­ hind the Red Cross. Worthy of note is this—the total cost of the salaried staff in the Ontario Division represents less than 2’a per cent, of the money received. Even for volunteer service organizations this is an unusual achievement. xPerhaps you would like to know­ how that 98c out of every dollar re­ ceived is spent. In 1941, over one million comforts were made by the women of the 462 Red Cross Bran­ ches in Ontario. Material was sup­ plied by the Red Cross, More than 7600 patients were cared for in the 30 outpost hospitals which serve sparsely-populated sec­ tions of the Province. At the four Blood Donor Clinics in operation in the past year, 31,747 donations were given. MoreSriinics are functioning now. This entails considerable expense in medical help, instruments and equipment. In co-operation with the Women’s Institutes of Ontario, the Red Cross made and shipped to Britain, 233.- 283 pounds of jam. Clasaes in nutrition were conducted through­ out the Province. Some 6,364 sixteen-ounce botilek of a specially fortified brand of Qxl Liver Oil were distributed to Ontar­ io school children. A bureau is maintained by Red Cross to gather information'on pris­ oners of war and missing men. and to advise relatives accordingly Since the beginning of the war, aoma 4,006 requests have been received by the Ontario Division from persons want­ ing information about their kin ser­ ving in the armed forces. The Ontario Division contributed over $136,000 for medical aid to Russia. Ontario Junior Red Cross mem­ bers played an important part in donating fourteen mobile kitchen units, five ambulances and one sta­ tion wagon to Britain. They were also in the van of the movement to assume financial responsibility for eight nurseries in England for bomb­ ed victims under five. Also they have joined in the giving of over 3,000 woollen blankets for use in Britain and in keeping a steady stream of clothing flowing to the mother country, Thousands of parcels packed with food are sent every week to British prisoners of war. Ontario Red Cross plays no small part in this work. , These are but a few of the things the Red Cross has done and is doing. Each day, new demands are made upon it. For almost two years it has managed to get by with­ out appealing to the general pub­ lic. Now the Red Cross needs money. It needs money to maintain its peacetime services. It needs money to help the bombed victims of Brit­ ain. Money to send comforts and food to our boys in German prison camps. Money to care for eur troops in"A(her lands. Money to provide nurses-, doctors and medical supplies at home and abroad. And who is going to attend to all this if not the Red Cross? Who is going to make it possible for the Red Cross to carry on but you and you and you? The Red Cross has never failed you. Don’t fail the Red Cross. THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MAY 7, 1942 Page 3Use Of Binder TwineIn Wool PenalizedA point that is worth every woolproducer noting', is not to use bindertwine or sisal string to tie woolfleeces after shearing. Use paperstring only. If paper string is notavailable the fleece should be leftuntied.The Canadian Wool Board Ltd.,has made a ruling that any wool tiedWith binder twine is subject to apepalty deduction of one cent perpound.The reason that wool tied .withbinder twine is penalized is becausetwine fibres get caught in the fleece and the strands of jute or sisal cause defects in the finished w’ool fabric. Moreover, fleeces tied with binder twine, slow up production and re­ duce the quality 'of wool products— and just now with difficulties in the way of getting normal supplies of wool from Australia and New Zea­ land. every fibre of Canadian wool is required. While it is true that some par­ ticles of paper string or twine mix with the wool in the fleece they are easily removed and have no effect on the final woven product. To use binder twine to tie the fleece is an expensive business— and what is equally as important it Just isn't playing ball with the fighting forces, for whom most of the wool is required.

P, J. A. Cardin, Hon. Louis, St. Laurent, and Hon. C. Power. However, officially there is satisfactory’ reaction on the removal of restraints of post commitments on war policy, and whereever or whenever contingencies shall arise, the results of the plebiscite will be a guide or chart. MAGNITUDE OF THE BUDGET Since the budget for this year is rather late in its introduction to Parliament by the Hon. J. L. Ilsley, Minister of Finance, it has aroused much speculation along Parliament Hill. Nevertheless, in face of all stories concerning this delay, yet it is due to no other reason than us magnitude calling for the record sum of more than $3,500,000,000 and entailing a great many problems on how to raise the money by equit­ able taxation with the British and United States budgets likely to in­ fluence the process of taxation in this country. COMPLAINTS and PRODUCTION As an answer to Complaints sometimes heard from the man-in- the-street that more and more pro­ duction should be forthcoming, it is pointed out in Ottawa that causes preventing it are often beyond con­ trol of officials or leaders of the Government, with a typical case being the mining district in Cape Breton. Though these collieries are capable of producing about 18,000 tons of coal each day, yet in the previous month they lost 61,795 tons in production by various causes, such as absenteeism, 26,411 tons; election day loss of time, 4,430 tons; fatal accidents, 3,925 tons; attend­ ance at funerals, 10,915 tons; leav­ ing work before end of shift, 2,329 tons; attendance at hockey games, 6,390 tons; observing military train, 1,760 tons; disputes, 6,635 tons. A TIMELY WARNING An impartial observer of the ac­ tivities along Parliament Hill, at this perilous time is forced to report that he is more deeply impressed by the greater degree of unity, by the more sober considerations, and by the better perceptions of the dangers in this war on the part of the leaders of all political parties in the nation's capital than by the ex­ tent of realization or knowledge of these facts on the part of the great mass df the people. After more than two and a half years of war, the overwhelming majority of the people, in sharp contrast to their leaders, still seem unable to, evaluate properly the great need of national unity being in practical and working condition or the great danger of disunity in this 'extremely critical period. This is why capital ant| labor relations in this war had to be regulated firmly by law. This Is why in stark realism n Federal election was held in war­ time. This is why war enquiries on different matters were found to be necessary from time to time. This is why economic or industrial disputes in wartime have arisen in various sections and between various sec­ tions of the country. This is why a plebiscite was advisable. In other words, any factor of disunity really exposes the people to the grave pos­ sibility of evil infection from the venom of enemy propaganda which always works on the theory that if you “divide” your opponents then you can “dominate” them. Of course, these leaders in Ot­ tawa represent the intelligentsia, the political economy experts, and the diplomats of this nation, perhaps persons knowing facta that enable them to be in a better position to pas* judgment on events and neces­ sities of this war, but this does not counterbalance the indications that the receptive ability or understand­ ing of the great masses is only very limited. This does not mean that the Government is to blame for the state of affairs. This does not mean that there is inertia since the contrary has been shown clearly by the people themselves in the consistent expressions of positive feelings and sentiments in favour of following any course necessary to win this war. However, in directing the BftBfis towards the goal of victory, the outstanding fleet matt be born in mind that enemy propagandamethods are aiming persistently to“divide" in order to “dominate'*,encouraging disunity in their oppon­ents' ranks and spreading lies aboutthis country, our allies, and the warsituation in general.One of their latest and most"popular^’, if this word can be used,lies is that one or other of the alliesis not doing as much as the othersand that one or another of the al­lies wants the other nations "to pull their chestnuts out of the fite.” Thus, it is reported that an English- speaking orator on one occasion broadcasted from Berlin to the New World that “whether you like it or not, yet it is true that the United States is more and more being dom­ inated by Britain”, and only a day later the same speaker, addressing himself to the British people, stated that “whether you like it or not, yet Britain is becoming more and more a colony of the United States.” By such false propaganda and lies, the enemy is attempting to arouse un­ warranted feelings of disunity be­ tween the allies or amongst the masses. In this current enemy propa­ ganda offensive directed towards the New World in effort to “divide” and to ’.‘dominate”, there is a definite objective now to create elements of confusion, uncertainty, and doubt amongst the masses here so the abso­ lutely false impressions may come into existence that Britain is not doing enough or that Britain is only concerned about her own defence, retaining at home a tremendous army for this purpose. Of course, these are enemy inspired lies and entirely out of tune with the real facts. Indeed these are malicious lib­ els against gallant people of Britain who fought bravely to keep the seven seas open, who fought against odds to keep the enemy busy in* the air, and who fought wherever feas­ ible on land, aiming to keep the enemy at bay until other democra­ cies could get organized for the struggle. In France, at the outbreak of hos­ tilities, Britain sent immediately a huge expeditionary force which fought with remarkable courage un­ til the last minute. If France had not surrendered, Britain would have continued to fight without limita­ tions or reservation. In Greece, the British losses were twice as large as those of the Australians and New Zealanders. In Crete, it was the same story. The number of British ships sunk in this war by enemy action or com­ bat is large, with the great majority of these ships being constructed in Britain and the officers or men who manned them and who died in action being from the British Isles, Out of the huge force of men who are guarding day and night the British Isles, a large proportion of them are not regular soldiers, but so-called “home guards", that is members of the civilian population who not only work but often work very long hours and in their spare time, they engage in extensive training in order to protect their homes and to hblp the regular forces in guarding Britain's coasts, which extend 3000 miles, and the 90,090 square miles of territory. Further­ more, in face of the huge war sup­ plies sent to Britain from the Uni­ ted States and Canada, yet it is a fact that in critical stages of this war Britain in turn has shipped tre­ mendous quantities of such supplies to other nations, especially Russia, with the latter acknowledging offic­ ially. that the huge supplies of Brit­ ish tanks, airoplanes, etc., had much to do in stopping the Germans. This was done by Britain in addition to the activities of the R.A.F. which forced a division of the German air forces. It is a fact that Britain is shipping steadily huge war supplies to Rus­ sia to the maximum possible extent. It is a fact that British soldiers are fighting gallantly or are pre­ paring to fight on many fronts to their maximum capacity. It is a fact that the British Navy is fighting, guarding and doing all in its max­ imum power to keep open all the sea lanes of the world. It is * fact that the RAF, is developing to its max­ imum ability one of the most strik­ ing, most active, most heroic, and most effective fighting machines in the world. These are facts. Stories to the contrary are lies. Britain h&s ' done, is doing and will do her max­ imum under the circumstances to win this war, without limitations whatever being made as to extent of her own sacrifices in her own Wood, in her own money, in her own materials, or in any of her own worldly poeaessiona Therefor*, unfortunately at an axtremely critical time tn this war, when Canada need* moat of alt a united front amongst it* people era M p RED RIVERgl^CEREAL 1 B MQBWWSJLEADERSHIPkts attributed to .<[cust omer conf idence* JUNKET I FRY’S Cooking I WERESERVE RENNET POWDERS1 ieAuorted Pkc. 11' CHOCOLATE » 9 c STORES CLOSE WED. 1230 Noen I ALU PRICES□HMctive untiliTniqht, may CLARK’S VEAL H A M &. _ TONGUE’^ 1 3 QUAKER QUIX TOASTED WHEAT FLAKES 2 S-OZ.

Fortunately, the lead­ ers of all political parties on Parlia­ ment Hill, usually adroit persons as well as politicians, are not victims of this kind of vicious propaganda and they are devoting their energies to all-important matters of war, with internal strife or political disaenion in the capital itself decreasing rap­ idly as the war effort is increasing. —(Reproduction Prohibited,) CULLODEN Flight Lieutenant and Mrs, HughMcClintock of Windsor, were reeentivisitors with the former's purenlsJMr. and Mrs. Edwin McClintock’/ and with Mrs. McClLttack’s parent/Mr. and Mrs. Robert - ■*Lorne. \ Mrs. Mervin Few«<Jack and Grant.

DONALD BUCHANANWEDS MARJORIE EASTMANThe following item from theToronto Daily Star will be of inter­est to the many friends of Mr. Bu­chanan in Ingersoll.Soft candlelight fell on banks ofrosebuds on the altar of the Churchof St John the Evangelist Hamil­ton, for the wedding Thursday even­ing, April 30th, of Marjorie RuthEastman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.Ivan Eastman, and Donald ClarkBuchanan, son of Mr. and Mrs. J.Verne Buchanan, St. Catharines. Rev. A, T. F. Holmes officiated and E. H. Crickmore played an organ prelude as guests arrived and for processionals. The bride was beautiful in shell pink lace and tulle gown, a finger­ tip veil in the same delicate pink, with halo created of rows of cach­ ing. The gown was fashioned with modified leg-o’-mutton sleeves end­ ing in bands of lace, the neckline square, the picturesque skirt of tier upon tier of tulle inset with lace motifs. A cascade of white gar­ denias and shell-pink carnations completed the bridal ensemble. Two attendants for the bride in turquoise sheer gowns, fashioned with full monk sleeves and wearing tiny shell-pink halo chapeaux with veils at back, were Mrs. Carl Mundy, sister of the bride, matron of honor, and Mary Lennard of Dundas, as bridesmaid. Immediately preceding the bride was her youngest sister, Barbara Eastman, in shell-pink gown that was a miniature of the bride's and wearing a shell-pink Juliet cap, carrying a basket of rose petals. Graham Buchanan of Toronto, brother of the groom, was best man, and ushering the guests were Peter Williams and Blake Haycock of Ingersoll. Mrs. Frank Locke sang.

Ontario Red Cross Launches Community Doctor Emergency Plan Toronto—Big city doctor—coun­ try doctor—and now community doctor. He is an innovation of the Ontario Division of the Red Cross in consultation with the Ontario Medical Association and the Depart­ ment of Health. His purpose is to give medical service to the people of isolated rural communities whose regular medical advisers have en­ listed or are serving in some other wartime capacity. Over 25 per­ cent of Ontario doctors have “joined up” or are connected with war ser­ vices. The people most affected by this are the residents of remote rural communities. The new plan will ' be worked on a pre-payment basis, each family making a voluntary subscription. The Community Doctor is assured a reasonable standard of living, a minimum income of $4,000, being guaranteed by the Ontario Division of the Red Cross. To apply against this are dues from subscribers, fees from private practise from residents who are non-subscribers, and muni­ cipal grant*. The doctor's duties are understood to include pre-natal care, infant welfare care, immuniza­ tion, school health, as well a* the usual attention to municipal sanita­tion, Unlike the municipal doctor plan, a patient is free to choose his own “family physician." No one need support the project who prefers to get medical help elsewhere, Munici­ pal politics and disgruntled taxpayers are eliminated. Stationed at Desbarats, 30 mile* cast of the Canadian Soo, Dr, Wil­ fred T. Cumming, graduate of Edin. burgh University, is the l^rst Com­ munity Doctor. Until just previous to Pearl Harbour, he was attached to the Scottish Mission in Manchuria. His new duties include the render­ ing of medical service to four rural munkipaliti<-« in the District of Al- goma. Consideration is also being given to the posting of Community Doctors at Lion's Head in the Bruce Peninsula, and Roseau in Muskoka District. The Canadian Red Cross is appeal­ ing to the public for 000,000. It need* this money to carry on its vital servtaee. Don't fail the Red Croat it has never failed yoa. ^SNAPSHOT GUILD TAKE CARE OF YOUR CAMERA Don't take the chance of misting fine snapshot* Ilka this because of acamera In need of repair.

But it’s doubly important bow. For justas there is a scarcity of so many other new goods, there is a scarcity in some types of newcameras. And that means we’ve all got to take care of our present cameras and make them serve usat long as we possibly can..Keeping a earners operating smoothly isn't difficult If you'll makea habit of taking care of it. One of the greatest enemies of any camera is dirt, so clean your camera regu­larly, inside and out. For that you’ll find a soft brush a big help, or youcan actually blow the dirt out with a small rubber syringe—kind the druggist sella. Clean the Jenswith soft coemetic lent tiasuhs. or the kind that camera shop* sell forthe purpose, or it yon prefer you can use a soft, clean listless cloth.

The pictures were presented by Nr. Matthews, representative of the Ford Motor Co. The films, four one-reelers, lasted approximately fifty minutes. One film, proved to be of such excep­ tional merit that it has been used by the Dominion Government in the "Carry on Canada” series. The first reel showed the mighty British fleet in action guarding the life-lines of the Empire. The sec­ ond film contrasted the war mach­ ine that the German people had built by forced labour to our own growing fighting force being built willingly by free workmen. Boxing and wrestling was the topic of the next reel, and there were incidents which were most exciting. The last film, entitled, “Tools for the Job”, showed Canada’s war effort in her various Ford plants, and the many implements of war being produced for the Empire.

Constable Cowan had tried the doors of the dairy around four o’clock and everything seemed in order at that time. Ernest Moyer, a driver for Wilson’s Dairy, passed the building on his way to work at 4.00 a.m. and Mr, Payne Avalked on to the men about 4.20 just as they had the safe outside the side door on the side of the building facing Mill street. Mr. Payne came to work from his home on Charles street east via Carroll and King streets, in order to feed the horses before load­ ing his wagon. As he turned on to Mill street he saw in the darkness a car at the rear door of the dairy but took it for that of E. G. Bartram of Bartram’s Dairy who has his milk pasteurized at the Ingersoll Dairy and usually loads-up at the same time as the other drivers. When about fifteen feet away from the car he observed four men trying to load the dairy safe in the back of a car and immediately called out "What the h ... . are you doing?” With this, two men darted in the lane at the rear of the dairy and two others ran down Mill street and and turned between the residences of Mrs. C. Procunier and Thomas McVea. Mr. Payne turned his flash­ light on the front of the car to get the license number and as he did this two of the men jumped in the car at the other side and drove it away at a high rate of speed along Mill street He immediately called the police and summoned the owner of the dairy, Louis J. Martin. As he was making the call the car came east on King street and as it turned north on Mill street the horn was sounded apparently to call the other men that w’qre missed when the car was first driven away. Mr. Payne saw only four men but the fact that he heard sounds as though someone was walking over tin, leads him to believe that there may have been a fifth who acted as a look-out man and made a get-away through the new tin can salvage dump on Mill street when he called out at the four attempting to load the safe. Constable Cowan arrived at the daily about 4.40 and Mr, Martin reached the place about 4.45. An investigation showed that entry hadbeen gained through a small door on Mill street, through which milk for the dairy is unloaded. The safe was at the front of the building in the dairy bar in plain View of any person passing the dairy on King street. It was rolled on its wheels to the rear side door where the at­ tempt was made to load it in the back of the car. It is believed the robbers were amateurs at the game and had no idea of the weight of the safe which was over half a ton, until they got it on the ground outside the dairy door and found it too heavy to lift. A check-up on the license number of the ear showed it to have been i stolen in Toronto Sunday night. All . that was found missing in the I dairy was 80c out of the till and | Mr. Martin states that there was practically no money in the __ I but some of the dairy records and[ tickets. j Mrs. McVea reports that she| heard men talking at the side of her I house and one remarked, "We can’t ' get through here there’s a fence,” I The police are working on the Plans for a salvage campaign to retrieve tens of thousands of tons of scrapmetal from Canadian farms are presented to Hon.

Ono of the best ways to avoid waste is to serve well-cooked, appetizing foods "eye-appeal” so there will be noth­ ing left on the plate. For example, a roast of lamb carefully cooked, so that it does not dry out, will be eaten to the last scrap. Dry, taste­ less lamb, on the other hand, may sit around for days because it lacks appetite appeal.

Long Man reaches maturity with a set of lineaments that has been be­ queathed to him from generations of ancestors.# He may like them, (the human ego being what it is, he gen­ erally does) or he may at times sur­ mise that the Greeks, in the era of their artistic glory, would not have wholly approved of his profile, but willy nilly, he must accept them and make the best of them. At all events, youth adds a beauty all its own; it lends lustre to the eyes, colour to the lips and cheeks and a vividness to the expression that is in itself be­ guiling. But the beauty of youth is fleet­ ing, as all the poets reiterate in doleful rhyme. Brightness and col­ our and the eagerness that looks so confidently from young eyes are all sapped by the years, and the disap­ pointments and sorrows the years in­ evitably bring. Yet there is another beauty, a beauty that is truly fade­ less, a beauty that grows with the yer s the beauty of life itself, and that beauty, etched in lines and fur­ rows, in sunken cheeks and sallower skin, is a permanent thing; it carries on into a new world where age means* nothing. Alexis Carrel says something of the kind in one of his finely writ­ ten books, when he steps aside from his role of famous scientist to philosophize on man and does it PROTECTION FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY A sm A al t l t s h e e c t u io p n p e o r f l e t f h t e fo p u a r r ts p a r ir o s o m o f i h s a s n h d o s w m n a a k t e u sh p o p r e t r w ri o g r h k t . of T r h ep o a u i s r a s n d on s o th f e r m ep o l t a o c r e m of e n a t n p a a r r m ts y f t o r r u c a k ll . types of vehicles are stored here.

D U N N i beautifully. He thinks that thebeauty of age is rare, much rarer than the beauty of youth, that de­ pends alone on the natural harmony of the lineaments. Perhaps, too, we must search more closely for beauty in an old face. It doesn’t, as a rule, strike one as suddenly, as full in the face as does the glowing, pulsat­ ing beauty of young things, but, once seen and understood, it is un­ forgettable. It is something to have lived long and to have grown beau­ tiful, for that beauty is the beauty of understanding, of suffering, of conquering, of self-giving, of self­ denying. It is the hall-mark of life lived, not life simply endured. It shines from eyes lined and dimmed of-their lustre, where “the years like birds have stooped to drink, and left their foot-prints on the margin.’’ It shines from the soul within, for it is the soul of such a one we see, the soul that has struggled from its hidden depths to come nearer to the surface, ready to emerge in all its glory, like the butterfly from its dull cocoon, when its Maker calls softly, ’’Come." A woman who did not understand the language of business went into the Bank of England to consult someone about her Ioan holding. The clerk to whom she talked hap­ pened to be rather a grave person. He inquired: “Is it a case of conver­ sion or redemption, madam?” "Conversion Redemption?” fal­ tered the woman. “Er—pardon me, is this the bank of England or the Church of England?” One of the largest repair depots for army vehicles in Canada is the Central Mechanization Depot at London Ont., of which some aspects are shown in the above layout. BRITISH INDUSTRIES — From Robert Williamaon — PLANE BRAKES OF POWDER Brakes of bombing and fighting aircraft, which have to be tougher than any others, are being made in Britain from metal powders. This process, a comparatively re­ cent development in metallurgy or­ iginally discovered by an English­ man, enables the bronze friction plates for the disc-like brakes, with which many planes arc now pro­ vided, to stand up to the tremen­ dous friction involved in bringing to a standstill a mass of some 40,000 lbs. traveling at a velocity of 100 miles an hour, when in a moment or so the brake assembly may well reach a temperature of about 900 deg. Fahr. Motorists know how easy it is to burn out their brake linings under conditions much less strenuous than these; while on other forms of sur­ face transport, such as trains, there are many wheels to each of which brakes can be supplied simultan- euousjy. But the aeroplane, as at present designed, has only two wheels to which brake assemblies can be attached. In the case of a bomber, the brakes on each wheel have to kill about 6,000,000 foot­ pounds of energy in a few seconds. Odd though it may seem that metal powders can provide mater­ ials capable of standing up to such conditions, they do »o. The bronze is produced by mixing proportions of the component metals in fine powder form, which are then pressed in powerful hydraulic press­ es into the desired shape and size. The slabs thus produced are now passed into furnacea wWre the heat is so controlled that the mass is sin­ tered, that la, the low melting point component roelta and alloys with the high melting point component The heat treatment » such that •’ perfect an alloy is formed as if the part had been produced from tart metal; moreover, the use of powders gives infinitely greater control over the properties of the resulting metal part and allows it to be bonded direct on to steel backing. This reinforces the strength of the part and the whole assembly is capable of standing up to the tremendous strains involved in bringing a heavy aeroplane..quickly and safely to rest INVISIBLE TANKS Tanks are now being carried by' “invisible” routes to Britain’s ports on special wagons in trainlaads of 21 at a time. Production is is so arranged that batches of them are ready at night when they are4^adcd on trains and sent to the ports by special routes so as to arrive there in the dark. The result is that very few people in Britain have an ink­ ling of this "invisible” traffic. The new "rectank”, or flat wag­ on which two heavy Valentines can be carried, is a special feature of these tank trains. Where there is not a loading dock a ramp is used, but the tanks can, if necess­ ary, climb aboard themselves. Worked out by the railway oper­ ations expert in conjunction with the War Office, these “rectanks” allow the full width of the railway gauge to be used so that with the larger tanks there are only inches to spare. BRITAIN’S FACTORIES DODGE BOMBS A new method of factory layout which has reduced output delays from bomb damage by as much as 60 per cent, has been elvolved by British scientists and engineers. Called the “production lattice”, factories engaged on similar work are not dispersed all over the coun­ try but are grouped close enough together to provide swift intercom­ munication. If there are, say, four processes in each factory, the bomb­ ing of No. 1 process in one works means that Nos. 2, 3 and 4 processes there can still be supplied from an­ other factory; while if a No. 2 pro­ cess la put out of action the No. 1 output can go through No. 2 pro­ We , May 10th SEN D H ER From on JA M E S B A X T E R — FLORIST — •Member F.T.D.A., Flowers Wired Anywhere PHONES—GREENHOUSES, 339 STORE, 446W were Sunday visitors with Mr. andMrs. Roy Ferguson.

To stop output completely, the enemy must put out of action the same process in each factory, and the mathematical odds against this are immense. In fact, because of these odds, the more accurate the bombing the greater the relative advantage of the "lattice”, or criss­ cross of production lines. Under the dispersal system, fac­ tories are badly placed to assist each other and whenever one process is put out of action the whole out­ put of the factory stops until this has been remedied. With the “lat­ tice” principle, however, practical examples have shown that in severe attacks up to one-half the output rate for a given section of industry may be saved.

IWILLIAMSTONESONSLTD The office telephone was out of order, and a workman was sent to carry out repairs. After a time, the workman suggested that the occu­ pier of the office should call up an acquaintance in order to test the working of the instrument. The man called for the telephone number of hi» own home. When th. connec­ tion was made, he spoke into the transmitter: "Mari*I” There follow­ ed a few conds of waiting, and he repeated his call In a peremptory tone, “Maria!” The storm that had been gathering broke at this mom­ ent The telephone wires were struck by lightning and the man was hurled violently under hi* desk. Presently he crawled forth in a dazed condition, and regarded the repair man plaintively. "That’s her!” he declared. “The telephone works fine."
