The president, Gordon Henry,
acted as master of ceremonies. Dr.

Mr. M. Walton, retiring principal
of Ingersoll Public Schools, was
guest of honor at a picnic supper
planned by members of his staff at
the home of Mrs. R. A. Jewett,
Thames street south, on Friday
evening, June 19th, Mr. Walton was
presented with a handsome gold
watch appropriately engraved as
coming from the teachers and ex-
teachera of Ingersoll Public Schools.
The presentation was made by
Miss Effie Bower, Assistant Princi
pal of Memorial School. "Mr. Wal
ton has been principal of Ingersoll
public schools for twenty-one years,”
Miss Bower stated, in making the
presentation. "He has seen many
teachers come and go—I think I am
the only’teacher on the present staff
who was here when Mr. Walton
came.” Miss Bower said she has the
unique distinction of teaching in
three schools in Ingersoll, under
three inspectors and t . _pals. "You were always kind and | es were empty, prohibition taws and

stated.
In replying, Mr. Walton thanked
the teachers graciously for their
gift. "I have always had a loyal and
co-opertive staff,” he said, "and 1
know that your gift will remind me
often of the happy days I spent
among you.”
Mrs. Walton, the recipient of a
lovely bouquet of roses and “carna
tions, spoke briefly,' thanking the
teachers and expressing the hope
that the teachers would feel free to
keep up their contacts with herself
and Mr. Walton.
Mr. J. W’. Hagan, inspector of
Public Schools for South Oxford,
who is retiring from his position this
year, spoke briefly, saying that he
and Mr. Walton had much in com

about the same time and retiring

In addition to members of the
regular staff, a number of guests
were present including some of the

full of cynical people as a result of
the breaking down of these.
The young people cannot under-
stand why people are slaughtering
each other. They were brought up
to loathe communism and now we
are blood brothers fighting together.
It is difficult to decide which is
right and wrong. There has been
a failure of moral and religious
standards everywhere. Germany
has tossed out the great work of
Luther. Millions of dollars have
been sent to Japan for religious pur
poses. Christianity is wondered to
be a veneer that nations can rid
themselves of it so easily.
We must get the right perspective
with regards to ourselves. This war
and the last are merely an evolution.
We are working for something high
er and better. This is the first
time that right and wrong have be
come a world issue. We must face
the issue. The world has become
too materialistic. It wrecked the
League of Nations and our Church
es. People wanted materialism not
spiritualism. Where should we go?

Hospital Tag Day
Was Well Supported
The Rose Tag Day, held on Satur
day, June 20th, by the Women’s
Auxiliary to the Alexandra Hospital
Trust, was most sueceasfuL The
amount realised exceeded that of
last year and the members are anx
ious to express their appreciation to
the people of Ingersoll and district
who through their whole-hearted co

are due to the industrial concerns,

the girls who tagged.
Many friends in Ingersoll were ’
grieved to learn of the sudden pass- (ing at Simcoe on Sunday morning, ,
June 21st, of a former Ingersoll boy '
in the person of Judge Arthur T.
Boles, County Judge of Norfolk for j
the past 28 years.
Judge Boles was born in Ingersoll, (October 4, 1869, a son of John and <Margaret Patterson Boles. He was ]
educated in the Ingersoll Public (Schools, the Collegiate Institute, j
and the University of Toronto. From Jthe latter institution he obtained the ,
degree of B.A. in 1893, graduating ]
with honors in political science. En- (tering as a student at law at Os- ,
goode Hall, he won scholarships.in
1894 and 1895, and the degree of
L.L.B. in 1895. He was connected
with the taw offices of M. Walsh,
K.C., Ingersoll, and C. J. Holman,
K.C., Toronto. In 1896 he was called
to the bar. He practiced taw at
Leamington for 18 years, previous
to going to Simcoe in March 1914,
as Judge of Norfolk County, suc
ceeding Judge James Robb, who was
retired.
In 1899 His Honor was married
to Detta E. Zeigler, daughter of the
late Enoch Zeigler, of Kitchener.
To this union was born one son,
Thomas Z. Boles, a barrister with
the Department of Munitions and
Supply, Ottawa, and two daughters,
Mrs. Douglas B. Hall, of Toronto,
and Mrs. Bailey Currin, of Delhi.
He was a member of the Leaming
ton Masonic Lodge and of Norfolk
Lodge, No. 10, AE. & A.M., of
which lodge he was made an honor
ary life member in 1940. He was
also formerly a member of the Odd
Fellows Lodge at Leamington.
Judge Boles was an outstanding
and respected citizen of Norfolk and
as a man of infinitely wide interests
was held in the highest esteem by
all sections and classes of the com
munity. Not only was he the leading
figure in the county’s patriotic and
civic undertakings, but his keen
legal mind was greatly admired
throughout the Canadian bar, of
which he was such a distinguished
and widely known member.
His Honor was a former president
of the Norfolk Golf and Country
Club, president of the Canadian
Patriotic Association which func
tioned during the last war; formerly
president of several victory Ioan
campaigns and was president of the
Norfolk War Memorial Committee
which was instrumental in raising
funds for the erection of the mem
orial tower in Simcoe.
In this war he has been chairman
of both victory loan campaigns and
only last week, was named chair
man of the Norfolk County National
War Finance Committee. He had
been chairman of the Norfolk War
Fund Association since its inception
in May, 1941, and was vice-presi
dent of the board of governors of
the Norfolk General Hospital Asso
ciation on which he had rendered
valuable service ever since its es
tablishment.
Besides his son and daughters, he
is survived by one brother, Frank
C. Boles, of Turner Valley, Al
berta, and one sister, Mr*. M. M.
Watson in Andover, England.
Elmer J. Chisholm, chahgnan of
the Ingersoll Board of Eolation,
presided over the gathering which
was was attended by the teachers
and pupils of the school. A picture
of Mr. Walton, which he presented
to the Board of Education at a ban
quet last week, was officially given
to the pupils of Victory Memorial
School to be hung in a suitable place
in the school as a tribute to the
faithful servAe rendered the com
munity by MJ, Walton. Trustee Gor
don W. chairman of the
School Property Commit- j 1
tee^Jtaade J the presentation of the ’
picture and it was received on be- 1
half of the pupils by Grace Walker ‘and Eleanor Bowes made a short 1
acknowledgement of the gift sayingthat the pupils of the school were 1
happy that the picture of their prin- 1
cipal was to be hung in a place of ,
honour where it would ever call to
mind the esteem in which a beloved
teacher was held by all who had
been privileged to attend the school
during the time Mr. Walton served
as principal.
Kenneth Ogden on behalf of the
boys and girls of Memorial School,
presented Mr. Walton with a beau
tiful walnut Tri-light floor tamp and
an address was read by Mary Cragg.
Mr. Walton was completely sur
prised by the gift and in acknow
ledging the graciousness of the
pupils said he felt highly honored
that after 21 years teaching his pic
ture was to be hung in a suitable
place at the school and that the
boys and girls had been so kind in
giving him such a fine remem
brance. He said that this would
likely be his last appearance before
such an assembly of pupils and he
expressed the wish that the boys
and girls would do well after they’
left school. He said he would like to
see them be good, honest, reliable
and* useful citizens and that they
would endeavour to live their lives
so that no one would be less good
as the result of coming under their
influence. He paid tribute to the
teaching staff of the school and said:
“You have a wonderful lot of
teachers. There have been many who
have served under me since I came
to Ingersoll in 1921 and there is
only one teacher, and that is Miss
Effie Bower, who was here when I
came,”
As Mr. Walton concluded his re-
‘ marks the children greeted him withJ loud cheers and the following pupils
representing the classes of Memorial1 School came to the front to shake
hands with Mr. Walton and extend-
“ ed the greetings of the ’ boys and I
' girls of their class. The room repre-

Health Insurance
The war has emphasized the need in Britain for
a greatly enlarged program of health education for
the nation the Very Rev. Peter Bryce, D.D., writes
in The Toronto Daily Star. The definite tendency
is toward the extension of health services for the
people, and with a much greater responsibility rest
ing upon the state.By order-in-council, the Canadian government in
February, 1942, appointed an advisbry committee to
investigate the question of health insurance, and it
is to be hoped that the opportunity will be used to
plan the framework of a really broad scheme within
the bounds of which it may be possible to attack the
basic health problems of oar Dominion.
In the past 25 years there have been many ad
vances in social service in Canada, including the
passing of the Workmen’s Compensation Act, which
became law in 1915, the Mothers’ Allowance Act,
. 1920, the Old Age Pensions Act, 1929, and the Un
employment Insurance Act, 1940. National Health
Insurance is another inevitable progressive measure
of public welfare.
Describing introduction and functioning of the
(Health Insurance Act in Great Britain, Dr. Bryce
says that in 1911, Mr. Lloyd George introduced the
outline of a National Health Insurance Act for Brit
ain. Despite violent opposition from various sources
the proposed measure becamcalaw in 1913. After
nearly 30 years of operation it is generally agreed
that the act works well, and that it is of distinct ad
vantage tg both the doctor and the insured person.
In general, the British Health Insurance Act pro
vides that every boy and girl entering industry be
comes an insured person under its provisions. A
, weekly deduction is made from his or her pay. The
employer adds an equal amount and the state makes
a contribution. In the case of manual workers they
remain insured whatever their wages become. Sal
aried workers continue on the list of insured while
their earnings are less than £420 per year. An in
sured person, under the provisions of the National
.Health Insurance Act, chooses a doctor from those
on the list, and nearly every family doctor has his
name written there. He takes his eard to the doctor
of his choice and from that moment he is entitled to
all the medical care which is within the competence
of that doctor to provide. He is supplied free of
charge with the drugs, he may need, and within lim
its, with the appliances he may-require. He may
call upon his doctor whether he is well or ill.

M. D. 1, Ready For Army Week
Plans for Army Week observance in Military Dis
trict No. 1, starting next Monday, June 29th, and
continuing to Sunday, July 5th, are now complete in
a majority of cities, towns and villages in the district,

tary celebration in the history of Western Ontario.
London, Windsor and other cities in the District

concerts and parties for the troops. In towns and
villages the Dominion Day holiday on July 1st will

services and Reserve Army parades.
Everywhere in the District, as throughout Can
ada, flags will be flown from public and private
buildings during the week, service emblems will be
displayed in homes and honour rolls in churches and
business houses.
Underlying the entire celebration is the desire to
honour the men who have left civilian life for the
duration to take their places in the fighting forces of
Canada's army. It is the citizens* opportunity to pay
tribute to the boys in khaki and judging from the
enthusiastic co-operation already given by Citizens’
committee* throughout Western Ontario, Army Week
will be marked by the greatest display of patrioticfervour seen in Military District No. 1 since the out
break of war. *
Citizens of Canada are requested to display flags
and bunting on their dwellings and places of busi
ness during Army Week, in a procltmation approved
by the Privy Council for Canada, Secretary of State
Norman A. McLarty, announced at Otteys. The
proclamation officially designates the period com
mencing Monday, June 29, and ending, Sunday, July
5, 1942, as "Army Week,” during which it is re
quested that all Canadians pay honor to the Can
adian Army.

quested “by way of expressing our pride and confi
dence in the men and women, who, as member* of
the Canadian Army, have offered their lives, if need
be, to defend their homes and country.”

6,000 GARAGESTanks are being assembled inBritain from parts made in 6,000little workshops, many of them garages with little to do now that private cars are virtually off the road.Together they make one great fac
tory which no air raid could put out
of action.
Planning the distribution of the
work caused many a headache be
fore production started. Each separ
ate part, down to the smallest nut,
has to arrive for assembly by train
or lorry from workshops miles
around at just the right moment for
the assembly shops, where as many
as twelve men may be required to
work together on the heavier of the
50,000 operations involved.
Mecause thousands of separate
operations are carried out in the
manufacturing of the parts, each
little workshop has its own gauges,
or measuring devices, precisely
checked up to the same standard of
exactitude so that any one part
picked from a collected heap by the
assemblers will fit to a hair's
breadth.
America is so impressed that her
aeroplane factories are following
Britain’s example by linking up in
like fashion the small engineering
plants of the United States.
TO SAVE THE WOUNDED
Sand was specially imported from
Libya for experiments on a new
portable vaporising machine for ad
ministering anaesthetics and artifi
cial respiration on the battlefield
and in air raids. One thousand of
the machines are to be mass-produ
ced in one of Britain’s largest motor
car factories.
The size and shape of a portable
gramophone , each of them weighs
only 30 lbs. and they will replace
the cumbersome gas cylinders at
present used. The Libyan sand was
used to test resistance to penetra
tion in sandstorms. The machines
are also completely vermin-proof.
In hot climates, where anaesthe
tics evaporate very rapidly, one. can
never be sure, with the usual meth
ods, how much the patient has ab
sorbed. The portable machine pro
vides complete control of dosage;
moreover, it enables one snaethetist
to take part in several operations.
The first 200 of the new mach
ines will go to Britain’s R.A.F.,
after which the fighting services and
the civil defence organisations will
each have their allocation.
ST. PIERRE AND MIQUELON
A new- postage stamp for St.
Pierre and Miquelon showing a fish
ing boat and a sextant is the latest
in the series issued for the Free
French Colonies.
Only a few weeks after General
• de Gaulle’s troops landed on the
islands, orders for the new issue
were placed with London printers
of stamps for Britain and her colon
ies. They had already printed the
stamps for all the other Free
French Colonies, and most of these
are now in use. ,
Designed by Edmund Dulac, fam
ous illustrator of French and English
books, w’ho was also responsible for
Britain's Coronation stamp, there
are separate issues in 14 different
colours for each colony. All of them
embody the traditional "ILF.” and
the Cross of Lorraines, emblem of
Free French, as well as the words,
"France Libre,” but there the simi
larity ends.
The Cameroon* stamp bears a
shield similiar to those of thick
leather borne by the native hunts
men of the Mandate; French Equa
torial Africa’s stamps depict the
Phoenix, symbol of France’s re
birth; while that of the French Establishments in India features’ the
lotus flower. For Oceania, the Tahi
tian tipairua, or double canoe, is
an emblem of local significance, as
is New Caledonia’s unique Kagu
bird. The air mail stamp show* an
aeroplane of such recent type that
it was not even under production
when the stamp was designed.
A new “fugitive” ink for cheques
and other documents which spreads
when tampered with by forgers, will
be developed by these London print
er* when peace returns. Successful
experiments had been made when war
broke out, but since then they have
been too busy on war work to de
velop their discovery.

Event* Planned For Every
Day Of Army Week
In the week from June 29 to July
5 the people of Canada are doing
honor to their army—the Gentlemen
in Khaki who have offered their
lives, if need be, in the defence of
their country, the men whose pres
ence in United Kingdom for the part
two years, like a fiat constantly shak
en iq the face of Hitler, have helped
discourage an(y attempt to invade
those islands.
The decision to hold Army wetfk
was the result of a demand by the
people themselves a spontaneous
urge to do tribute to the service
“second to none,”
The program has been so design
ed that each day emphasizes some
phase of army life. Monday, June
29, will be Soldiers’ Day. Special
entertainments are planned for the
soldiers. Gifts, parcels and letters
will be sent to men in the service.
Understanding between the army
and the civilian population will be
fostered on Tuesday, Civilian Day.
Attention will be focussed on the
question: "What am I doing as a
civilian to support the soldier in
this war?” Restaurants will be
asked to prepare meals according
to army diet sheeta,
Cooperation between the army
and the other armed services will be
emphasized on Wednesday, United
Services Day. Thursday will be
devoted to local events. On Friday
the important part played in the de
fence of Canada by the Reserve
Army will be4 spotlighted.
Tribute to our allies will be paid
on Saturday, United Nations Day.
Detachments of the forces of the
United States will be invited to
visit Canada and units of the Unit
ed Nations training in Canada will
take part in special programs.
Sunday will be a Day of Prayer.

I was indeed disappointed that I
could not come to Ingersoll last
Thursday night My thoughts often
carry me ibaek to my home, my bus
iness, my club and friends in Inger
soll and I hope the day is not too
far away when this hideous game of
war is over and our normal ”*

CONSCRIPTION POLICYThe Government’s conscriptionpolicy for overseas service is contained in these exact words of Premier Mackenzie King’s statement inParliament: “The Government doesnot believe that conscription foroverseas service is necessary at the
present time. Moreover, it may
never become necessary.” Then at
another point, he stated: “If the bill
is amended as proposed, it is not the
intention of the Government to re
sort to conscription for service over
seas.” In other words Premier Mac
kenzie King has cleared the air of
the Government’s policy on the con
scription issue.
One train more: Ten miles, toAmericus, Then a motor bus,
Ironburg wasn't a burg; it wasa tew scattered frame houses. Inneed of paint, grouped abort a general store. Jerry, suitcase In hand,was ths first passenger to descend.
He hurried through the doorway.
A blackened counter, with bar
rels of sugar, coffee and dried fruitin front of it; upon it, smoked hamsunder wire-net covers; behind it,shelves of canned food. One end acage surrounded and was labeled:
"POST OFFICE k PUBLICTELEPHONE.”
Nobody here."Hello." „ ,He turned. Carrying a mailsack,a girl was entering—and such a girlthat be marveled how be couldhave passed ber on the porch with
out stopping to look at ber.
Brown hair and eyes, mighty
pretty, but—what was especiallyastonishing in this rustic and oldfashioned frame—entirely modern.
Her hair was nicely dressed, inthe latest style. Her skirt wasshort—but not too short. Her stockings were the correct shade. Evi.
dently, there were radios and
movies within reach of Ironburg.
Jerry gasped. Angela Slinn? He
hoped notl
“Can I help you with that bag?”
She laughed, “Nope.” Not any
verbal “Thank you.” Easily she
flung the sack into the cage, wentaround the counter and confrontedhim. Mighty pretty.“WeU?”
“My name’s Glidden.”
She let the Introduction r—without acknowledgment Nor didshe tell him who she was. In fact,
she said nothing.Those little success books didn't
cover such emergencies as the
present “I’m here on a sort of
vacation,” Jerry explained, “and Ithought this store would be a goodplace to get a line on the best
hotel.""The best? There’s only one, andit’s got exactly six bedrooms with-
out bath.” She pointed out of the
window to a dejected hostelry across
the way, fallen into permanentmelancholia. “You couldn’t have
missed it"All very fine, but not business.He therefore said: "Thank you—
Miss Slinn."
She shot him a quick glance-no more."I haven't often beardname," be persisted.“No?"
"It doesn’t suit you.”
“Nothing does. X’m hard to
please."She turned ner back abruptly. ——--------She went into the cage, emptied caster, got
the sack of its scanty contents and »mart girl;
began to sort letters.
She seemed to have forgotten, not
him especially, but everything ex
cept this occupation. Yet rudeness
had no part in her manner; heraction simply announced that, thereJ»elng work to do, It must be done.
Glidden bad no recourse save togo; after all, what you couldn’tfind out about a village’s Inhabi
tants st that village's hotel must
be scarcely worth the seeking.
So, though he felt somewhat likea defeated candidate on the dayafter election, he picked up his suitcase and left. As, however, heclimbed the hotel steps, the charmof that store girl pulled him around.
Another person, on the point ofentering the store, stood looking athim in turn.

that
The peach Is Angela Silnn for sure,and here’s her boss. Rose Walker."
He tried to stroll nonchalantlyInto the darkened hotel office andas nonchalantly hire a room thatoverlooked the post office — he
meant the turnpike.• “And who's your friend Sunbonnet Sue glowering at you from thestore steps?” he Inquired, merely
by way of making talk.The proprietor craned a crosshatched neck. "Oh, that there?”he mumbled, pulling a droopedmustache that was white where itwasn't stained by tobacco juice."That there's Miss Angela Slinn.
••WHAT? That one?"It was a relief to find that thepretty girl hadn’t the ugly name.Host Hassler of the local hotel
smiled knowingly. ,
"You're vonderln’ about the oz-zer. I seen you cor.ie out o' herstore. Well, eflerybody likes the
looks o’ Rosie.”Jerry was wondering about MissWalker. He knew that his Interestought to center on this SUnn worn-•an, but he was quite content to hearwhatever his loquacious landlord
would tell of the younger person.
It had to do, more cr less, with
that ore mine which, at a distantand happier day. gave Ironburg its
name. Merrily launched by a firmof Philadelphia promoters, theBreak O’ Day Iron Companypeople around here seemed to likethe morning—started with a yieldplentiful and high grade. Then thePhiladelphians quietly unloaded,
and Phineas Walker, a rich manfor those times, used nearly aU hisfortune to buy in.
”1 can guess the answer,” said
Jerry.
Precisely. The quality of the ore
became useless for industrial pur
poses. The mine was flooded, too;a mysterious lake appeared, bottomless. folks said, without inlet oroutlet. Then the inevitable, a receivership with nothing to receiveexcept Walker’s beautifully en
graved stock certificates, and no
money to redeem them. Walkerdied of a broken heart.
"So your pretty postmistress tohis daughter?”

His guest pulled himself up short.What was the success maxim? "Theboss’ business is your business.”Especially when he's trying to fireyou! "What." asked Jerry, "about

"Oh. Angle just helped Rosie’tend store now an' then. Lived,rent tree, in a Walker shack outaround that old ore mine.”
“Does Mrs. Slinn—”

Of course there was not ot<chance Ln a thousand that thit

Nevertheless, there appeared tobe some mystery about her. Shewas a SUnn; Doncaster, whereJoseph had said he was bom, laynot.too far away, and, finally, shewas the sole clue to information ob
tainable.
Jerry must somehow find outmore about the dead man before hetook up the beneficiary’s trail. Forthis reason alone had he come to
Pennsylvania.
So the store was not long open1 next day before he entered it. Onlyits brown-eyed proprietor waspresent ,“Yes?” , . !“Good morning. I—I was locking for Miss Slinn,” stammered
Jerry, “and now they tell me she’s—she’s the other one.”-Not here.” a I

unexpected inheritance or just an

"Then you’d better ask Angie.”Jerry Inquired the way and
wished it took longer to tell.
“Can’t I sell you something?"Miss Walker demanded.What could he buy? He did wantto prolong this interview."I got in some first rale pepper
mint stick last night.”
She was laughing at him. He lefther and started out to pay a call onAngela Slinn.A cloudless day and peacefulThe empty turnpike ran between
woodlands where the oaks andbutton-woods were green, andwhere the blackbirds sang.
Jerry turned off along a designated bypath. It had been a road,but it was overgrown, and the trees
met above IL For an hour he followed It, then came out upon a landscape of an entirely new character.
Desolate, Hassler had used theright word—desolate evenunderthls
summer sun.
Between black hills spread a widetableland. Something over therethat looked like long abandoned
quarries. Here were the last ruinsat a few frame houses, too dilapidated to invite a rat.
No other token of human habitation save one distant hut scarcelybetter than these.
The other hut stood perhaps half
a mile off. beside a thick plantation of pines, the only trees thatcould take root here.
Angela’s house was rooted by tar
paper, and Its sides were made ot
laths and clay. How anybody couldinhabit it during the winter. Glidden couldn't surmise. It was aboutthirty feet long by twenty wide, hadno windows and contained, certainly, not more than one room.
A* Jerry walked across to it, nota sign of life was visible.
There was. as Hassler had said,a kitchen garden a round it—a rather ailing kitchen garden—and astovepipe issued from one wall andmounted skywardBut nobody was in the garden,
and no smoke rose from that im
provised chimney.There was a door, of sorts, on thefarther side. He tried it It evenhad some kind ot lock, and thelock was in use."Now then," said Jerry ironically,

DEFENCE OF PRICE
CONTROL PLAN
Faced with severe criticism of the
price control plan, Hon. J. L. llsley,
Minister of Finance, has come forth
with a strong defence of this plan.
“We have been amazed at the re
sponse of the Canadian people,” he
said. He pointed out that during the
first 26 months of the last world
war, price levels rose 15 per cent
and during the first 16 months of
this war price levels rose 15 per
cent. During the next 7 months of
the first world war price levels
jumped by 13 per cent, or 28 per
cent increase, but during the next
7 months of this war price levels
rose only 1 per cent due to the
price control plan. The Minister in
dicated that these figures speak for
themselves.
But it is now clear that the effortsof these internal enemies have failedbadly. To-day, as a result publicopinion in this country is morethoroughly and more absolutely inclined towards the affluence ofGreat Britain than ever before inthe history of Canada.
What are these powerful influ
ences?
While this country has been en
titled to complete legal autonomy
since the Statute of Westminster,
yet the influences in every direction
of Great Britain in the everyday life
of this nation have continued to be
quite marked and these influences
have brought numerous advantages
in recent years just as they have
for centuries.
First, one powerful influence has
been the fact that the practical form
of our democracy, the parliamentary
system of government, has followed
WHEAT CARRYOVER
REDUCED
It appears that Canada’s wheat
carryover will be reduced. Accord
ing to information disclosed by the
Minister of Trade and Commerce,
Hon. James A. MacKinnon, there
is every likelihood that the reduct
ion will reach the figure of about
100,000,000 bushels. “With a contin
uation of the present rate of dispos
ition for the balance of the crop
year,” Hon. J. A. MacKinnon said,
“there is every likelihood of a re
duction of about 100,000,000 bush
els in the Canadian wheat carry
over at July 31, 1942. as compared
with July 31, 1941.” At the same
time, he disclosed in the House of
Commons that Canada had con
tracted to sell Britain another 120,-
000,000 bushels of wheat and that
the outward movement of wheat was
above the deliveries of the previous
year. ,
has stood up just as well here as in
Great Britain through various poli
tical storms of war scandal, economic
crisis, and internal dissensions. Any
or all of these events have brought
disaster to democratic parliaments
in other countries such as Germany,
France, Italy, etc., where prior to
this war numerous political parties
and frequent changes of government
actually caused the democratic ^par
liaments in those lands to
longer respected by the people and
to be paralysed. This did not happen
in Great Britain and itjvill not hap
pen here. In fact, it is more likely
that strong team work in political
life during any real emergency
would result in Canada just as it
happened in Great Britain where
National Government came into ex
istence under the stress of war em
ergencies.
Second, another strong influence
has been* the fact of the stable econ
omic, industrial and financial rela
tionships between Canada and Great
Britain and these have grown spon
taneously ever since the arrival on
these shores of the first immigrants
from the British Isles who founded
these enterprises here or who start
ed the flow in this direction of
capital.
Third, a great influence has been Ithe fact that the people of Canada jand Great Gritain have been travelling on the same cultural road forcenturies. Indeed, every culturaldevelopment in the Motherland has 1been characterized by a somewhat ]similar reaction in this countrly andevidence of this fact can be foundin many places with this influencebeing especially emphatic in the institutions of learning.Fourth a tremendous influence hasbeen the fact that almost every progressive social movement in Great
Britain has found its counterpart in
Canada, and on the other hand, dis
ciples of the progressive movements
of other countries, such as Russia,
Germany, and others, have not been
successful in spreading their doc
trines in this country because the
masses looked up them as “foreign
influences”. Thus, it is no secret
that British labor movements have
been imitated in Canada and when
these British labor movements or in-
' terests turned their attention to the (
political as well as economic field,
a similar reaction followed in Can- ,‘ ada.
In digest, in face of all internal
controversies which are now over
casting the political heavens, yet
these aforementioned influences on
public opinion in this country are
much stronger and far more lasting
than any of these temporary distur
bances. These aforementioned influ
ences are not merely imbibed in the
national sentiment. They have al
ways been and still are of a prac
tical nature. In the crisis of the
American Revolution which started
in 1775, these influences in favour
of Great Britain disclosed them
selves in Canada. In the crisis of
the war of 1812, when even the
capital of Washington was burned,
these influences in favour of Great
Britain disclosed themselves in Can
ada. In the crisis of the Civil War
these influences in favour of Great
Britain disclosed themselves. In the
crisis of many heated border dis
putes, these influences in favour of
Great Britain diseased themselves.
In the crisis of the last .World War,
these influences in favour of Great
Britain disclosed themselves. To-day
in the crisis of the present World
War these same influences in favour
of Great Britain are not only dom
inant factors, but they are stronger
in themselves in Canada than ever
before in their power to affect,

is, obviously, the safest solution, as
it eliminates the extraordinarly pro
lific breeding capacity of the common
house fly. In this connection, it is
very generally conceded that Wil
son’s Fly Pads offer a rapid, safe,
sure and cleanly method of killing
all the flies. Just a few pads in the
right place, at the right time, will
do the trick. In war days, the keep

greatly aided by protecting health
and anything tost helps to exterm
inate flies, helps to do this.

against allowing flies to enter the

on food, drink and even little babies
sleeping in their cribs.
The importance of this cannot be
over-emphasized, but to destroy flies

WE, THE PEOPLE
Notwithstanding the headlines
which are currently reporting the
vigorous performances by the out
standing stars of all parties in the
great game of politics in Parliament,
yet an experienced observer must
inform the man-in-the-street that
these results of the session so far
are merely spectacular exploits and
from the standpoint of national in
terest nothing more.
To mention that any political is
sue alone, even on conscription, as
the dominant issue in this nation at
war is commonplace. To contend
that any political issue will finally
determine the fate and future of
this nation at war is to exaggerate.?
No political issue ^alone is of
major importance now because it is
recognized in well-informed circles
behind the scenes on Parliament Hill
that in any real national emergency
during this war, close team play
can be expected to be the very ess
ence of matters wholly political. It
cannot be otherwise before the ris
ing tide of public interest and en
thusiasm in this war. In other words,
public opinion is a much stronger in
fluence amongst the people in this
war than those proverbial dramatic
interludes in the theatre of politics
and this influence will shape the
course of thia country's more rigid
and more militant actions in this
war.
As a rule, an observer cannot
foretell or even guess at public opin
ion in wartime with any degree of
absolute certainty, but now the situ
ation is exceptional because there is
an overwhelmingly powerful reac
tion in favour of nothing short of
all-out help in every respect for
Great Britain above everything else,
wit^h the implicaton that the coming
weeks will unfold this fact in the
vital news from the nation’s capital
’Before the outbreak of this war
and since that time, extreme par
tisan* and professional as well as
amateur propagandists have tried
desperately to stimulate situations
where publie opinion in this country
would be disorganized and where
the people would be quarrelling
amongst themselves in regard to
helping Great Britain in wartime.

HONESTY IN •
THOUGHT
— by —
Eveline A. Long
It has always been considered a
a little daring and more than a little
impudent for a layman to criticize
the church, but when a minister of
the church feels impelled to risk
his livlihood and the scorn of his
fellows in holy orders, to state
freely what he has thought wrong,
it is perthaps not amiss for the lay
man to admit that his thoughts have
run along parallel lines.
The argument in A. H. Tyrer’s
book, "And a New Earth", concerns
itself mainly with the fact that we
are supposed to remain content with
what appeared to satisfy the clerics
of past ages; to accept without ques
tioning what to them appeared quite
feasible. If we, in all honesty, fail
to agree and positively say so, we
are, according to the dogma formu
lated in another era, damned to all
eternity.
Now the God who made these men
of past ages gave them only the
thoughts they could understand. He
limited His gifts of thought to the
extent of their knowledge and intel
ligence, that knowledge and intelli
gence being limited by the then
known scientific facts. As man pro
gressed and was able to delve
deeper into the divine intelligence,
he was permitted to draw from it
new truths, truths often strenuously
denied by the hidebound of that
generation, but gradually accepted
by all and sundry as self-evident
truth. This probing and finding and
proving on the part of science has
continued without ceasing. No man
would wish it otherwise. The search
ers are held in highest esteem as the
leaden of world thought, and no
one of any enlightenment desires to
hold fast to the old ideas, accepted
as truth by our remote ancestors,
but repudiated as false in the light
of fresh knowledge. The telescope
and the microscope have been the
keen instruments in the hands of
God’s instrument, man, to show us
truth as our ancestors could not
know it.
If then we are at one, when it
comes to allowing that scientific
truth to one generation is not the
same as truth in generations after;
that man, as he develops, discards
and adds by a process of trial and
error, why can ,we not see that the
same reasoning applies to matters
religious? We may not all be able
to agree as to the divine rightness
of the dogmas and the creeds, but
we surely do agree as to the div
ine rightness of goodness, that is if
we agree that honesty and truth
and selflessness are always good.
The feeling with many people, as
with this ex-Anglican minister, is
that essential goodness is all that
matters, and that an unquestioning
acceptance of all the creeds and
dogmas that make up the cumber
some machinery of organized relig
ion, is not to be expected of a rea
soning and honest individual. They
are not so accepted, so why pre
tend? What man really believes that
a just God would condemn to ever
lasting punishment the millions of
His creatures whose only fault was
that they had never heard of such
dogmas and creeds, or who, having
heard, were unable honestly to ac
cept them?
Religion means very different things
to different people, but like the au
thor, I fail to see how a blind belief
in a creed has ever made any man
one whit the better, his life one de
gree. th more useful, or brought him
one step the nearer to the God who
gave him the intelligence to doubt
