J. A. Walker. Members of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club had aa the guest speaker at their regular weekly supper meeting on Thursday evening last, at the Ingersoll Inn, Rev. J. A. Walker, minister of College Avenue United Church, Woodstock. Rev. Mr. Wal­ ker spent several years as a United Church missionary in China, and in his subject, “The Far East and the Near West," he related many per­ sonal stories and experiences with the people of China and Japan. Henry I- Stewart, president of I the dub, was in the chair and Ki- wanian Rev. R. Harold Parr, minis­ ter of Trinity United Church, in­ troduced the speaker. Rev. <Mr. Walker in opening his remarks, explained that be had chosen "The Far East and the Near West”s ns « subject for his talk as what once was regarded as the Far East, had noMr become the Ndar West, as modern means of commun- ication and transportation had placed China and Japan, separated from Canada and the United States by the vast Pacific Ocean, within a few hoprs’ flying distance. It was the speaker’s contention that after actual hostilities in this war ceased, there would be considerable time required before the entire world could settle down to a state of peace. Speaking of China, Rev. Mr. Walker mentioned the enormous population of the country and said that every fourth baby born into the world looked up into the face of a Chinete mother. There was hot the waste in either China or Japan that there is on this continent, and many in Canada and the United States waste more than the Chinese who subsists on rice and soup, has to eat. “China and Japan have much in common,’’ declared Rev. Mr. Wal­ ker, “both in their virility and abil­ ity to make something out of noth­ ing. The peoples of both countries were described as most industrious and the Japanese were said to be particularly capable of improving upon anything they set out to copy and had taken away the leadership of the silk industry from China and were beginning to turn out high quality porcelain and lacquers that were copied from Great Britain and the United States. It was the contention of the speaker that Japan lost the oppor­ tunity to be victorious when she was caught with over a million troops bogged down in China when the present war .broke. Had Japan been able to , assemble her forces in 1939 she could have made a lighten­ ing attack on the Phillipines and Dutch East Indies before they could have prepared to stem off an invasion. Great praise was voiced for the Christian leader of China, General Chiang Kai Shek and his great wife, as they had been able to hold together nearly one quarter of the world's population through a great period of trial and tribulation. Kiwanian Harold G. Hall ex­ pressed the thanks and appreciation of the club to the speaker for his interesting and informative talk.

She had tried the door and it was locked. Mr. Zurbrigg immediately called Robert D. Carr and both young men gained entry to the Lacey bathroom by breaking through a window. They found the prostrate form of Ronald Flood in a heap on the floor and the room filled with gas fumes. The gas hot water heater had gone out and the room filled with gas while Flood was taking a bath.

THURSDAY, MAY 31st, 1942 Busy Canadian BeeWithin a few weeks millions of new workers will be busy aiding the Canadian war effort; many of thJm are already here and many more will shortly arrive from the Southern States to assist in the job of food production. Normally the bees irt, Canada produce from 26 to 29 million pounds of honey each year, but they could double the output if necessary. Wax is another pro­ duct of the bee now in great demand for many pur­ poses. -With certain sources of supply eliminated or curtailed, the honey bee must endeavour to meet the emergency with greater production. The honey bee in doing an efficient production job of her own, also assists in increasing the yield of many’ other products. Farmers and gardeners are not a little worried over the possible shortage of seed. Most seed and vegetable plants cannot pro­ duce seed or vegetable without cross pollinixation. The methodical honey bee in her search for nectar distributes the life giving pollen from flower to flower. The rosy apple, jucy plum or luscious cherry would be practically unknown were it not for the visiting bee during blossom time. War production officials recognize the importance of the honey bee in war time economy and have granted certain priorities to the beekeeper who in turn should co-operate fully in providing for his bees the proper conditions that will enable them to work to their fullest capacity.

The memorandum points out that really goodplant housekeeping doesn’t mean only clearing up a mess; it means keeping the place from getting into a mess. Dust and dirt interfere with production, therefore, good plant housekeeping pays dividends. It is suggested that supervisors try having each worker keep six feet clear around his work place. In order to emphasize the importance of keeping the plant tidy, the Associations has forwarded along with the memo four coloured bulletins to be placed on factory bulletin boards. The posters read: “Un­ safe Footing Breaks Bones”; “Keep the place about you clean, and put oily waste, rubbish, or papers in the container provided for that purpose”; Clean Floors Prevent Falls”; and “Keep things tidy, order in the factory reduces hazards.” Miss Elva Goff of Ingersoll is spending a few days with Mrs. Wm.

MAN and MEN— by —Eveline A. LongIn his beautifully written book,“Flight to Arras”, Captain Antoinede Saint Exupery, famous flier and author, shows how, through the ex- egencies of perilous night flight, over enemy-held lines, he lost all fear for his frail and threatened body, and found himself, the real man in himself, the "Man” that is not the same as men. Only as we do realize that there is in us a being infinitely more important than our­ selves, our earthy selves, can we form an image of that ideal self which is the Creator's gift to us. Only as we learn, as did Saint Ex­ upery, the relative unimportance of these outward trappings that serve as a disguise for the inner “us”, shall we be able to start on our climb upwards. In another part of this infinitely beautiful piece of prose, he says “A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contem­ plates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral". Well, we are that rock pile, disintegrated and ugly, rough-surfaced and sharp­ cornered, devoid of form and wholly inadequate to express the beauty and solidarity of a cathedral, but the Artist, the soul, the spirit, the God­ head, call it what you will, can create, of it a noble and enduring monument, “man” himself as God saw him when He created him in His own imag;e. One has to see the heights before one can climb them, and man must be able to visualize himself as cap­ able of Godhead before he can be­ gin to make his way to it. He has to believe that he has in himself more than just instincts and intelligence, which enables him to rise above the beasts, but which alone are incap­ able of discovering to him his im­ mense possibilities in the realm of the infinite. We are, says Alexis Carroll, made up of a procession of phantoms in the midst of which strides an un­ knowable reality. That reality is us, the real potential divinity that sur­ vive* when we, like the rest of the phantoms, are disintegrated as far as the flesh and bones and blood are concerned. That substantial us, the much beclouded and beclodded us of the terrestial sphere is so ter­ ribly important until we realize as did Saint Exupery in his amazing flight, its utter and transitory unim­ portance, except for the fact that it carries within it the divinty that shapes our ends. And that divinity pleads above all for a chance to work its will, to lift up to-heights undreamed of, to make us "man” the divine, as apart from mere man, the super intelligent animal. with the Department of NationalDefence. We paid a visit to thisSchool recently and through thecourtesy of the School principal,Mr. Frank Wales, we gleaned aninsight into the Important job whichthia School is doing.It is not a big school as schoolsgo, in fact it occupies only a tinycorner of the huge Ford organiz­ ation, but since its inception in the fall of 1940 it has trained hundreds of Canadian aoldier-trascsmen in the skills required for maintaining fighting machines. The course is of only two weeks* duration but in that time the men, who of course have had some preliminary exper­ ience in motor mechanics and allied subjects, are expected to learn thoroughly the art of dismantling and re-assembling Universal car­ riers, artillery tractors, trucks, lor­ ries and ambulance. The men come to Windsor from all parte of Canada. In the cloak­ room you will see shoulder-badges of Military units representing just about every province in the Dom­ inion. Their ranks include officers, NjC.O’b and just plain soldiers. The School will accommodate about two- score at one time, with one-half the men working on Universal Carriers and the others on trucks and lor­ ries. There are six instructors on the staff who supervise their pupils’ work on parts, maintenance and re­ pair, and who give lectures during the course. Recently some additional men over and above normal quota were taken on at the request of the Department of National De­ fense. Lantern slides depicting various parts of the mechanized vehicle are used liberally in the lecture room. During the last two day* of the Ford course, the men are taken to the proving ground where they learn to drive every type of army vehicles. At the end of two weeks they leave the Ford school and pro­ ceed to Chrysler and General Mot­ ors plants where similar schools arc in operation for more specialized • study. The soldiers then return to their units where they become spec­ ialists in the care of their unit’s machines, 'while others will act as instructors. Entire cost of the course at the Ford School is borne by the Ford Motor Company. While in Windsor the men are quartered at St. Luke’s Barracks, though the Ford Company provides luncheon at ^»the plant. The entire set-up is a striking dem­ onstration of the co-operative spirit as between government and priv­ ate enterprise running all through Canada’s war machine.

Transportation companies are facing many prob­ lems and the public has been warned that consumers cannot expect to receive coal exactly as and when they happen to want it. Householders are urged to take delivery now for next fall and winter. 1 It is equally aa essential that householders have thair furnaces repaired during the summer months so that they will be ready for use when required. Word has been received here that Pte. Vernon Taylor, son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Taylor, King Street West, has made the supreme sacrifice being killed on May 3rd.

In the debate on the franchise for soldiers in the House of Commons, Ottawa, on May 14th, Mr. Don­ ald Sutherland, member for South Oxford, delivered an address in support of extending the franchise to all who enlist with the Canadian forces for over­ seas service.

FORD ARMY TRADES SCHOOL — by — Lieut. Bruce M. Pearce Hdqrs. M.D.l, London, Ont. This is a war on wheels and treads, a war employing armoured fighting machines on a scale un­ dreamed of a few years ago. Can­ ada already has one complete Arm­ oured Division overseas and another in the making, as well as an Army Tank Brigade in Britain. Canada’s industrial brains have already given convincing fighting machines of the highest calibre. Alert, muscular young Canadian sol­ diers by the thousands are being rapidly trained to operate those machines. Behind the men on the battlefield, hoWever, must stand an army of skilled artisan* who must know intimately intricate mach­ inery of every vehicle and how to effect repairs in a hurry. Just recently the Hon. J. L. Ral­ ston, Minister of National Defence, made this statement: “I do not know of any more important task in the modern army than the maintenance of vehicles.” Mr. Victor Sifton, Master-General of Ordnance, said in a radio address that “the scientific employment of machines is the goal at which we are aiming”. The First Canadian Base Ordnance Workshop now being readied for overseas, will be “the world’s largest garage and repair shop.” Realizing the vital importance of training armies of expert workmen to maintain the huge fleets of army vehicles in the field, the Department of National Defence has established such schools as the Army Trades School at Hamilton, the Mechanic's Training Centre at London, and countless classes in scores of tech­ nical and vocational schools right across the country.

Mr. Rennie was unable to state whether the work would be done by i contract or the engineers of the De­ partment of Transport. Inquiries are being made by interested parties in the work from outside of town a* to houses available in Tillsonburg for rent and boarding places. It will be the first airfield to be con­ structed in the County of Oxford. May Use Paper Bags For Fertilizers Due to the shortage in the avail­ able supplies of jute, as a result of war conditions, it .may be necessary next year to use paper bags entirely for fertilizers, G. S. Peart, Fertiliz­ ers Administrator, states today. During the present season mem­ bers of the. fertilizer trade have been unable to obtain as many jute bags for packing their product a* in other years and a* the war continues fewer jute bags will be likely available, Jute comes almost entirely from the Ben­ gal district of India. Fortunately Canada has generous supplies of pulpwood and therefore should be able to meet the needs of the fertilizer trade with paper bags said Mr. Peart. To High Post AUCTIONEERS . / ALEX.

The following interesting letter was received recently by the Kiwan- is Club. Dear Friends: You gentlemen of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club are certainly doing your best in making us chaps feel we have done something really worth while in joining up to fight for Can­ ada’s freedom. And in this camp, way back in the bush, your regular gifts of cigarettes and parcels have been more than welcome and The Ingersoll Tribune that you have so kindly kept coming over the pond has kept me in touch with all the happenings in my home town. The Y. M. C. A are doing very good work among us. They manage to get a movie out to us about once a week, and also stock a little can­ teen with chocolate, soft drinks, etc. I’ve been separated from the rest of the Ingersoll boys for quite sometime now, it’s almost a year since1 I’ve seen any of the chaps and that’s where the Tribune plays a big part, From their letters that are posted in the paper from time to time, I can keep track of what they are doing. Now once again let me thank you all for the great job you’ve done in making life pleasant for us chaps since we’ve been so far away from home. I remain. Yours sincerely Sig. J..E.

FOLDEN’S CORNERS New Order TightensControl On TiresOttawa—Retreaded and used tires,used tubes, and retreading services,as well as new tires and new tubes,are now under rigid control, accord­ing to an announcement by Hon. C.D. Howe, Minister of Munitions andSupply.Effective May 15, the new order is designed to conserve Canada’s rub­ ber supplies for war purposes, to prevent hoarding, and to keep essen­ tial vehicles, including farm trucks and implements, in operation as long as possible. The order tightens the previous control over new tires and new tubes. It sets up three classes of -eligible vehicles, “A”, “’B”, and “C”, on a sliding scale gauged accor­ ding to the usefulness of the vehicle to a country at war, and it rules cut the 1,000,000 or more motorists who are no longer able to buy even a used tube. When a dealer has two^pr more orders for a similar tire oh tube, and he cannot fill both orders, he must give preference to the owner of a vehicle in a higher class. 1 Owners of vehicles in Class "A” are permitted to buy new tires, new tubes, retreaded tires, retreading1 services, used tires or used tubes. In this class are such vehicles as cars used by physicians, cars belonging to clergymen who serve two or more congregations more than three mile? apart, cars used by clergymen ir. sparsely settled districts, trucks for road repairs, trucks for carrying farm products and foods, fire fight­ ers’ vehicles, police vehicles, and farm tractors and harvester com­ bines, other than automobile and trucks, for the operation of which tires and tubes are essential. Owners of vehicles in Class "B” are permitted to buy retreaded tires, retreading services, used tires and used tubes. In this class art- rural mail carriers, passenger cars or trailers used principally for the transportation of produce and sup­ plies to and from his farm by a per­ ron whose principal occupation is farming, and who owns no truck, and others.

JAPS IN NEW HOMES In the heart of the Canadian Rockies, far-removed from vital de­ fence sones of the Pacific Coast, British Columbia Japanese have been grouped into large "enemy alien” camps. Under surveillance they perform .road-building work on the proposed Edmonton to Vancouver highway. They live in camps set up by themselves; a group of Jape is here shown in front of a mesa tent in on* of th* camps. Judging by th* expmaiona on th*lr fscae they suffered few hardship*. Owners of vehicles in Class “C” may purchase only used tires and used tubes. Included in this class are vehicles usqd principally in the course of their duties by the fol- . lowing: Farm or food products in­ spectors, dentists or optometrists who serve more than one commun­ ity, scrap buyers, sheriffs or other law enforcement officers, servicemen who repair farm machinery, rural school teachers, rural undertakers and newspaper reporters.

You canachieve this effect In your pictures by observing a few simple rules. DO g r Y e O at U d w ep a t n h t t I o n g y e o t u a r f p e i e c l t i u n r g e s o ? f Do you want, when picturing land­ scapes, to give the Impression ofvast distance? It’s not at all hardto do—if you use a little common sense in choosing an appropriatecamera position, watch the fore­ ground, and work with the light Instead of against It..Take this week's illustration, for instance. As landscapes go, It’s not^ bad. In fact It conveys the Illusionof depth to an unusual degree . . . but not by chance. The photogra­pher, I dare say, planned it so. In the first place, you’ll note that Instead of taking a picture whenthe lake was devoid of life he waited until a canoe passed through the foreground. Or perhaps, he “planted”it there. Regardless, the appearance of the canoe In tho foreground im­ mediately accomplished two things:It added human interest to the pic­ ture, and gave us a basis of com­ parison for the other objects in thescene. Not content with that, however,the photographer very carefully chose a point of view behind somelow hanging trees so that a few branches hung down from above,and thus added another plane to the scene. In other words, he gave us something familiar and very near tolook at, and also something distant to see. Fortunately, too, there arethree tones or planes In the distantshore, and mountain beyond, which further emphasize the illusion ofdepth. And there, In a nutshell. Is thesecret of getting a feeling of depth in your pictures. Make sure that some familiar object—such as a tree,a barn, a house, a horse, a canoe, etc.—4s Included in the foregroundof your picture, along with “human Interest” when possible. Here’s one further tip which isn'tillustrated by the picture, but which is Important just the same. Watch fan-sidellghtlng. Objects and sceneswhich are pictured when the sun is shining upon them from the side appear to have a greater feeling ofroundness and depth than those plc-v tured with flat Illumination. 374 John van Guilder Miss Marjorie Fewster and Miss Ber­ tha Gilbert.Mr. and Mrs. Earl Sherk and MissEdith Case of Woodstock, spentSunday with Mrs. P.

TENSION OF THE TIMES There is no doubt that the man- in-the-street throughout Canada is often inclined now to judge precipit­ ously the conspicuous headlines printed in the press or the abridgedstatements broadcast in news sum­maries on radio programmes. Theresult is that just as often unjustand erroneous impressions are creat­ed about the leaders and legislatorsin this nation's congested capital,especially when precious time seemsto be used supposedly not so wiselyor nonchalantly in the very labor­ious process of getting bills through Parliament. As a matter of fact, it is true that day after day, night after night, leaders and legislators in the headquarters of this fighting democ­ racy have to face a never-ending onslaught of great waves of words CHAPTER Xn SYNOPSISHarley Longstreet, broker.

Stopes gave no defense. Hewas temporarily deranged.

Meanwhile the three part­ners had sold out their mine, arich one. and returned to the United States.'* “Maquinchao learned from De­Witt that they heard from him peri­odically, chiefly from Canada, al­though both maintained they hadnot been in communication withhim for six years." “Of course,” murmured Lane,“we have only the word of twodead men for this information. Dothe records contain any mention ofthe fate of Stope's daughter?” Ajos shook his head. "Only thatshe was taken away from the Mon­tevideo convent at the age of six.” "You can, if you will,” continuedLane, adjusting his cape, "do aneven greater service. Would you’ cable your government for a tele­photograph of Stopes’ fingerprints,to be followed by a telephotographof his face, if there is such a cam­era record, and a complete descrip­tion?

"Werethey Americans?" "I Aave forgotten to tell you theirnames were Harry Longstreet, JackDeWitt and William Crocket—" Lane's eyes were glittering.

"Inspector Thumm." said Lane,"Bruno will never convict Collinsof the DeWitt murder.” Thumm did not reply at once.When he spoke, it was almost dif­fidently. "I don't mean to pushyou, Mr. Lane, but for the thirdtime since I've known you you'vemade a positive itatement aboutthese crimes. How are you so sureCollins can't be convicted?” "That,” said Lane, "is a longstory. On the other band, we havereached the point where it is timefor me to prove as well as pose.

"Not one of them was for Jessthan fifteen thousand dollars, al­though the amounts varied. Theywere all cashed at the Colonia)Trust of Montreal." "More and more Interesting, In­spector. And how were the checkssigned—were they personal signa­tures of DeWitt or firm clicks?" "They seemed to be firm checks;they were signed by both DeWittand Longstreet. There’s no recordin the office of the reason for thesemi-annual checks; they were ap­plied fifty-fifty against the drawing­accounts of the two men. The taxrecords are all right, too—wechecked there.” “Did you investigate tills Crock­ett?" "Mr. Lane!” said Thumm re­proachfully. "The Canadian peoplemust think we're crazy, we'vehounded them so.

The diminutive wigmaker, his oldleather apron bound about his tinywaist, had trudged into the library bearing a large manila envelopewith a consular imprint.

Theyare significantly indicated to be thecontrary. Indeed these wars ofwords are definite signs of the ser­iousness and enthusiasm of these men along Parliament Hill. This is why there is no political regimenta­ tion so far in this war. This is why there have been situations where leaders or legislators have taken an unequivocal stand so far on some issues in this war. This is -why legislative compulsion is used so far only when voluntary co-operation is not forthcoming in this war. Though the man-in-the street may not be in a position to realize it fully, yet what these lead­ ers and legislators have done so far in this war are much more than im. perishable chapters in our .annals of Parliament and much more than mere memories of voices crying in the wilderness of debate. In other words, an experienced observer can detect, diagnose and disclose these symptoms and it is impellent to state now that they are undoubtedly distinct signs of the tension of the times, with a few typical verbal exchanges being offered here to show this prevalent tendency in this session. When the Hon. R. B. Hanson, Leader of the Official Conservative Opposition, asked a question con­ cerning statements made in a speech during a Quebec election, Premier King replied: "I have been trying to avoid political controversy and give my thought to the war effort of the country and l.do not intend to be drawn into any contro­ versy by the leader of the Opposi­ tion.” When workers struck in a plant on account of a man being demoted, the Hon Humphrey Mitchell, Min­ ister of Labor, made a caustic dec­ laration in Parliament when he stated: “J would like to say this. It would be just too bad if the men who go down to the sea in ships, in corvettes, went on strike because a man was demoted." When Arthur Slaght, Liberal, Parry Sound, was making a rousing and brilliant speech in Parliament in defence of Canada’s war record, he was interrupted by a loud re­ mark from another member who shouted: “The smashing of windows in Montreal doed. not look much like unity. "However, Mr. Slaght re­ plied immediately: “That is the sort of talk, which if indulged in on the floor of this House, will tear this country limb from limb.” When Howard Green, Conserva­ tive, Vancouver South, challenged a certain matter of defence, the Minister of National Defence, Hoh. J, L. Ralston, made a heated re­ mark to which the clever Mr. Green replied: “I think the minister is going a bit too far.” But the Minis­ ter of National Defence hurled back: "I think that my honourable friend is going a bit too far." When Karl Homuth, Conservative, Waterloo South, said on one occas­ ion in the House of Commons that some of the Conservatives had been spending a lot of time in Liberal ridings, trying to get a “Yes’* vote for the plebiscite because the Liber­ al Mepibers of Parliament did not "show the same enthusiasm", there were jeers and some Liberal back benchers yelled: "Nobody, wants you in a riding!" Mr. Homuth shot back quickly: “I would not go to yours anyway!” When a Meinbefli aroused the Prime Minister’s ire by setions inter­ preted as being in defiance of the rules of Parliament, especially since that Member had risen no less than 15 times to get the floor on one pretext or other. Premier Macken­ zie King said: “I wish to say to himthat haviAg regard to the extent to which he has interrupted the pro­ ceedings of this House in the last couple of days, he is beginning ser­ iously to infringe upon the privil­ eges of the House itself, and if he proceeds in rising end not obeying orders of the Speaker, I think steps will haw to be taken whereby the Speaker's orders shall be effectively carried out.” While it may not be realized ac­ curately by the man-in-tbe-street throughout this country yet Parlia­ ment reflects these days the ten­ sion of the times when an experien­ ced observer analyses the nature and extent of the verbal exchanges^ Indeed it does not take much theydays to start tempers flaring and#o stir bitter debate, with the ru^lt that generally there are no ymp- toms in Parliament of indiff>ei e*-------------------------< ------/--------- or nonchalance amongst the leaders or legislators whose ugly mood is merely part of the enthusiasm, ser­ iousness, and eagerness of the people's representatives in their efforts to avoid any bottlenecks or to remove any brakes in the speed of Canada’s war machine as it moves faster and faster.. Stories, that pretend to indicate that the leaders or legislators are not using their time wisely and that on occas­ ion these hearing or debates in Par­ liament have stopped the clock, arj not in accord with the real facts and they are actions calculated to hinder rather than help the war effort. In this nation of different races and different units of popula­ tion, widely separated in thought and distance one from the other, it is ahnost a miracle to what ex­ tent they have been welded all to­ gether into a greater unity of war effort than the man-in-the-street can imagine at this time. Therefore, the man-in-the-streetmust digest the news or stories about alleged protracted debates or hearings with a large grain of salt. They are indicative of the tension of the times ano they are definitely good sign* which will put the prvs- eiU^Parliament among the elect tn ynadian history and shed increa­ sing luster on its name when this war is over. And a veteran observer knows it.—(Reproduction Prohibit­ ed.) PRISONERS OF WAR Hon. J. ta Rateton, Minister of National Defence, has indicated that the number of war prisoners who have escaped from Canadian prison camps has been "remarkably small”, and out of the thousands confined here, only 80 had eeeeped, with merely one man managing to really get away and all the others being SAVE FOR CANADA’S W*AR CHEST Save real money on Greyhound’s low fares—then put the money you save in War Savings Certificates and Victory Bonds - - for your own good, for your country's good!

In fact, it is said that the new Government leader in the Sen­ ate has never attended a political conference of his party during the 12 year* of his membership in the Upper Chamber. INCREASING USEFULNESS OF SENATE It appears certain in well-inform­ ed circles in the nation's capital that the Upper Chamber might in­ crease its work and scope of useful­ ness in future. At least, this seems to be the plan of the acting Gov­ ernment leader in the Senate, tHon. J. H. King, who has been acting in that capacity since the deathf of the late Senator Raoul Dandurand. Moreover, the new leader holds that more and more opportunities in thia respect will exist, though most legislation must orignate in No Sunday Cricket In Woodstock Park The Woodstock Parks Board has ruled that there will be no Sunday cricket played at Southside Park this year.

Outpost hospitals across Canada's northern frontier must be maintained and travelling medical and dental clinics must still visit thousands of settlers in sparsely set­ tled regions. The "Good Citizenship" program of the Junior Red Cross with its 900,000 members in high schools and secondary schools must go on. While emphasis in Red Cross work at this time is on service to the men of Canada's armed forces and th* relief of civilian* and refugees in distress overseas, the peace-time activities of the organization are so vital that they must be continued. There are, for example, the increas­ ing number of Pint Aid posts along the main-travelled highways of On­ tario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and British Columbia which are saving many Uvea that would athewia* be lost through automobile accidents. There are the thousands of visits made and service* rendered to the soldier* of the present and the last war who are confined to militaryhospitals. Classes in home nursing and first aid and nutrition ar* training thous­ ands of women many of wham can use their new-found knowledge to advantage in war activities. In the M Red Cress outgo at hospitals 4t,- 236 patient* were treated last year and another 42,013 Mtiamta ware ( treated in travelling clinics. The Seaport Nursery at Halifax aided over 1,800 adults and children who arrived in Canada in 1941 while the Junior Red Cross Crippled Child- en's Fund provided medical care for 1M4 handicapped children. These, a few of the peace-time activities of the Red Cross, must be continued even in time of war. In asking the Canadian people to give 49,000,000 that its work may be carried on during the next year, the Red Cross has made provision for continuation of its vital home services as well as the services aris­ ing out of the war. Take Special Care'3 Of Farm Machinery There never was a time when there was such urgent necessity for conserving farm machinery and power. Farm machinery of all kinds is capable of a long useful life, if giv­ en proper care and repairs made when required, say the Agricultural Engineers of the Dominion Experi­ mental Farms. Here are a few helpful suggestions for maintaining the life and effic­ iency of farm tractors, electric mot­ ors and other power ynits.

Bailey King street The “Gymcanna” presented under the sponsorship of the Ingersoll Community, “Y” in St James’ Ang­ lican Church parish hall on Wednes­ day and Thursday evening* of last week was an exceptionally fine dis­ play of physical activities by boys and girls of the community who are taking instruction under James E. West, General Secretary of the Ing­ ersoll Community “Y”. Capacity crowds taxed the seating accommodation of the hall on both evenings and the show was carried through smoothly with very little delay beteween number*. Jack Fleischfer and Miss Muriel Parker acted as accompanists for the vari­ ous numbers and their playing is de­ serving of particular- mention. Max Poole, chairman of the Community “Y” Board of Directors, presided over the program and in­ troduced the numbers, the first of which was a parade by all the boys and girls taking part. Following in quick succession were drills and games by the Brownies; a march and free hand drill by pupils of Grade 6 at Victory Memorial School; tumbling by members of the Junior Leaders Corps; a dance by the Girl Guides; games by pupils of Grade 7 at Victory Memorial School; wand drill by pupils of Grade 8; dumbell drill by pupils of Grade 7; exhibi­ tion on spring board and horse by the intermediate leaders; tennis drill by intermediate girls; free hand drill by pupils of Grade 8; and the final number was a Military March by a Troop of Girl Guide*. An outstanding feature of the evening was the statue posing of Gerald Staples who made several poses representing figures in the athletic world. Gerald’^ body was completely covered with bronze paint and his exhibition drew a big hand from th© crowd. On Thursday evening, SergL Ev. Ettinger of Saskatoon, naw on active service with the R.C.A.F., who was a guest at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James E. West, put on a display of tumbling and spring board rolls. Sergt. Ettinger was a former pupil of Mr. West at Sas­ katoon and before enlisting worked himself up to the position of assist­ ant physical instructor at the Sas­ katoon YjM.C.A. He showed marked skill in his numbers and his most difficult acts were done with appar­ ent ease. During the intermission period, Rev. IL E. Merifield, rector of St. James’ Anglican Church, led a sing song. Mr. West addressed the audi­ ence outlining the work that is being done fqr the boys and girls and explaining that the proceeds from the “Gymcanna", were to be used in the purchase of equipment • SMART GLOVES • SMART PARASOLS • NEW SCARVES • DAINTY NECKWEAR • NEW HOSIERY • SILK GOWNS • SILK PYJAMAS • SILK SLIPS • CREPE SUPS • HAND BAGS • NEW SILKS • SMART WASH TIES - TAINS rises.

The process consists of preparing a marinade, or preservative mixture, made up of blending vinegar or lem­ on juice with olive, corn, or other vegetable oil in the proportion of one part vinegar to two or three parts oil. A little pepper or a dash of mustard may be added if desired. Place the meat in a covered earth­ enware di*h, not a metal dish on account of the acid, and thoroughly coat the beef with the marinade, which may be applied handily with a pastry brush. Rub well into the crevices of the meat. This process not only protects the meat from the air and helps to preserve it, but the acid makes it more tender and the oil improves the flavour. If the marinade is intended only for soften­ ing the fibres and making the meat more tender, the proportions of the mixture should be reversed, that is, two or three parts of vinegar to one part of oil.
