Reports were presented by all committees. These merely recom mended the payment of accounts and were approved as read. Under enquiries, Councillor Stan ley J. Smith asked the Town Clerk as to the hours the polls will be open for voting on Tuesday next, August 11th. Clerk Robert McNiven replied that the hours for voting were 8 a.m to 7 p.m. standard time, or to be more specific the voting hours would be 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern War Time, the time on which Ingersoll was operating at the present A number of accounts were pass ed for payment on motions by mem bers of committees which they con cerned. Councillor Archie W. Clark asked the Mayor if it would be possible to get some government assistance to wards building houses in Ingersoll for some of the men now employed at the local munitions plants. He said he understood that over 40 were coming up here every day by bus from Tillsonburg who would pre fer to live here if they could secure a suitable home. Mayor Murray replied that the Government was continuing the plan adopted a few years ago of giving financial assistance to any person desiring to build their own home but at the present time there was difficulty in getting materials for construction purposes. There was considerable discussion on this matter but nothing de finite was decided upon at the meeting. Speaking in connection with the matter of cleaning the streets, Coun cillor Smith said he believed the council should get the old rotary broom repaired and the street could be cleaned in the evenings through the business section as was the cus tom several yeans ago. He also sug gested that some of the sidewalks were badly in need of repair. Counsellor Clark, chairman of the Board of Works in reply to Coun cillor Smith outlined the plan fol lowed in cleaning the streets and de clared that Ingersoll streets were much cleaner than those in either, Tillsonburg or Woodstock and he’ felt that they were cleaned more often and kept cleaner than was the case some years ago. He said that he had built and repaired more side walks since he had been chairman of the Board of Works than was done in a period of years previously and he cited the new sidewalks that had been built since he had taken over the chairmanship of the committee. The matter of the numbei of times catch basins are cleaned, came up for discussion and it was pointed out that with the amount of help the town had to do the work a good job was being done. In regards to an enquiry about the containers that at one time were on the main streets for the disposition of papers, Councillor Clark explained they were at present stored in the burns. They had been taken off the streets because of the small amount of paper that was placed in them was not worth the time required to make collections from them.

P. Jewett, administrator of book and writing papers, Wartime Prices and Trade Bo^rd, declared recently. Not only did Mr. JeWett say that, with some ex ceptions, advertisers d6 not realize the duty and opportunity facing them, but he added, quoting Hugh Mackenzie, director of simplfied practice, “it is dangerous to discontinue advertising at this time." In this connection Mr. Jewett pointed out that there appears to be a growing misunderstanding on the part of advertisers, publishers and other users of printing paper, that there is a shortage of printing paper in Canada. “There is no such thing,” Mr. Jewett said. “Because of the drive for the salvage of waste paper," Mr. Jewett explained, “many patriotic citi zens believe that it is also necessary to restrict the use of printing paper. This is not the case. In both materials and mill capacity Canada is well able to supply normal requirements, and to do so '•without any impairment of the war effort so long as waste paper is made available for the manufacture of paper for war needs. “The chief war demand,” Mr. Jewett said, “is for paper board and shipping cases. These are not made from the same materials or by the same mills that produce printing paper. The mills that produce printing paper cannot easily be converted to making paper board or cartons. Therefore, a drop in the use of fine printing papers can add nothing to the supply of cartons.” War Savings Certificates Now Sold Locally v It has always been possible to purchase War Sav ings Stamps locally but on Saturday, August first, ■ War Savings Certificates went on sale at all char tered bank branches and post offices in this district This was the first time, citizens were able to put down their money and receive a registered Certifi cate without going through the process of mailing the money or War Savings Stamps to Ottawa and then waiting several days for the receipt of the Certifi cate. From now on the staff of the branch postmas ters and the bank managers throughout the country will be an important new section of the great sales staff for War Savings Certificates in Canada. There were several good reasons which prompted the National War Finance "Committee to make War Savings Certificates available immediately on de mand It is generally accepted that the easier it is for a customer to buy any given article, the greater will be the volume of sales for that article. For example, theunan who is shopping around for a birthday pres ent at the last hour, is not as likely to make the present a War Savings Certificate if he must wait days for the gifts, as he will be when he is able to walk into any bank Or post office and pick it up im mediately. The over fte counter sale of the Certificate comes at an opportune time. Publicity attending the in auguration of this departure should do much to compensate for the ill-founded decisions of some citi zens here and there who judged the demands of the new budget too hurriedly and concluded that they no longer would be able to buy Certificates. Sugar Allotment Set For Thresher Gangs One half pound of sugar will be allowed for every six extra meals served to thresher gangs, fruit pick ers and other harvesters, according to an announce ment made by the regional Prices and Supply Repre sentative of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. United States tourist* are also advised that U, S, Sugar coupons will not be honored in Canadian grocery stores. Application for temporary ration •ardi may be secured at the border by United States citizens entering Canada and submitted to the near est Wartime Prices and Trade Board office, where * ration card will be provided. Residents of Western Ontario are warned that lost ration card* mean that the unfortunate will be without sugar until the permanent card* are issued in September. Only exceptional circumstances would warrant ihuitag a new card. , Ice Cream Frozen By Price Board lee cream cones art frozen in more ways than one which will be good news to kiddies and adult* alike, n has been announced at the regional headquarters •f the Wartime Price* and Trade Board that ice cream cones are exempt from the new taxation. There have been some complaint* that merchant* have been adding an extra eent to the price of i« eream cone* which is contrary to the regulation*, also that they are serving only single dip cones. Merchant* who served double dip cone* during the tantric period must give the same portion at the present time it is pointed out by the Board.

It is hoped, the Agriculture Depart ment states, that in the interests of food production for the year, that this figure can be increased up to 60 ay per cent during the coining year. The use of fertilizers on pastures and fall wheat is particularly rec ommended thia coming fall. Every farmer is advised to begin now to investigate the possibility of increas ing his feed crops through the use of fertilizer. Through the co-operation of the fertilizer manufacturers and their agents, the amount of the subven tion will be deducted from the price of the fertilizers at the time of the sale to the farmer. The extension, of the policy will go into effect imme diately and farmers should ask sell ing agents from whom they purchase their fertilizers for the full detail* regarding the subvention policy.

The Provincial departments of agrriculture will continue to co operate with the Dominion Depart ment in a supervisory capacity through loeal administrative office*. The procedure in obtaining the ben efit of this assistance will be through the co-operation of the fertilizer manufacturers and their agent*, and will be the same as in the spring of 1942. The purpose of extending the pol icy is to assist in the production of increased supplies of meat, dairy and poultry products to meet the large commitment* and increasing demands of the United Kingdom by providing subventions for fertilizers applied to certain feed crops. It is emphasized that the only fertilizers eligible for the subvention are the kinds and analyses recommended for use on the following feed crops: Pastures, hay, grain, ensilage and green-feed crops, mangels and tur nips. The recommendations in this respect are those of the National Agronomic Committee, which oper Two office boys were discussing business. “Have you got a goodjob?” asked one.“Yes,” came the prompt reply.

FLOODLIT WOUNDS New surgical instruments which “floodlight” the interior of the body are being used by some Army sur geons in the Middle East. Equipped with a set of these unbreakable lum inous instrument*, medico* can per form field operations under a tree or a lean-to shelter, without worry ing about aircraft overhead and with better lighting in the wound than in an operating theatre. Made of a transparent plastic material like glass which transmits light round comers, does not con duct heat and can be thrown on the ground without breaking, the instru ments arc made in about 30 differ ent shapes, to suit any kind of wound or operation. Even where there are two right-angled bends in the trans parent instrument, the light rays travel down to the frosted tip and flood the wound with a cold, shad owless light, however inaccessible the place may be. Blood does not easily congeal on the instrument, as it does with ordinary lighting ap paratus. About 30 different instruments are available, but there are three or four dual-purpose models which are quite sufficient for ordinary diag nostic and surgical work in the field. A set of these, together with a small electric accumulator, costs about £12 and many surgeons in the fighting services have bought them out of their own pockets, so useful have they proved in action. Some of Britain’s greatest surgeons are now using these instruments for wounds which cannot be seen into by ordinary operating theatre light ing. Similar instruments have been made in other countries for some years past, but they had the disad vantage of losing their shape in ster ilising. The new instruments how ever are made of methyl methacry late plastic specially developed by British chemists, which will stand any amount of boiling without losing shape. WAR'S MOST VERSATILE PLANE Hawker Hurricanes have now got auxiliary fuel tanks under the wings to let them fly further into Europe. The Hurricane is the most versa tile aircraft of the war. In the Battle of Britain it wa* a fighter with eight machine guns. Then it was given twelve machine gun* or, alternative ly, four 20 millimeter cannon. It became a bomber with machine guns and two 250 lb. bombs. It has taken off from ship decks. It has been catapulted. And it has been adapted for work under a blazing sun and for fighting over Russia’s snows, "AUSTERITY BUSES The first of a fleet of “austerity” buses has just been completed in Britain and will soon be operating ina Midlands area.

It can seat more than 40 ond it ha* room for many more standing pass enger* than the usual single-decker rigid chassis type. Fittings are kept to eesentials and anything approaching luxury has been severely cut out. The width of the bus exceeds the regulation limit of 7 ft. 6fin. by an xtra six inches and thefoverall length is 33 ft. 6 ins. It is the first lane that buses of this type have been permitted for passenger transport on Bitish roads, and now a number of thehe are on the way. BRITAIN'S 3,000 PIG CLUBS Eighty new pig clubs are being formed in Britain each week. The pigs are kept mainly on waste food stuff* and surplus vegetables, and the 3.000th club was registered by the Small Pig Keepers' Council a few weeks ago, * About 9,000 tons ol bacon or pork, or 80,000,000 4 ounce ration*, are being produced each year by these amateur pigkeepers, and a good half of this goes into the pool for the general public. The rest is the reward of the pig dub members, who are allowed for their households the meat from two pigs a year, representing * 3 lb. joint of meat each week.

LIMITED WMM— THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, AUGUST 6,1942.....t"'~ in. .l " 1 " -iOTTAWAWEEK BY WEEK— by Doan Wilson — SIMILARITY OF HISTORIC SESSIONS While the session of Parliament, which started on January 21, is an unusually long one, yet it is not a record since several other sessions > have lasted that long, especially the historic assembly of 1917 which met and deliberated under rather simi lar conditions of war. At that time, Parliament was in a long and bitter rebate on conscription legislation which was finally passed and which was followed by the, formation of th* Union Government and an elect ion in December, with these activi ties initially forcing the session to last from early in the year to late summer in somewhat similar cir cumstances as the unusually long session of 1942. This remarable similarity of these' two historic ses sions is recalled by veteran obser vers. PUBLICITY REPORT IS CONFIDENTIAL It is indicated in Ottawa that it is impossible for the Government to disclose the Vining Report on Can adian publicity in the United States, that this secrecy has caused much disturbance amongst those elements who want to know in detail how Canada’s war effort is being publi cized in the United States and who do not favor secrecy on such mat ters. However, it is pointed out in Ottawa that the Vining Report was never intended for the public but rather for the Government only and that the information would never have been obtained, perhaps, from certain sources if it was known by L*ese sources that this information would be made public. C.B.C. ISSUE IS ENLIVENED Ever since the radio committee of the House of Commons revealed its findings and recommendations re garding the management or opera tion of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, it has been known in Well-informed sources in the nation's capital that appropriate changes would be forthcoming in time but it is not expected that a drastic or radical alteration of the whole set up would be made quickly since there was no unanimity of opinion amongst the members of the special radio committee. POLITICAL LINES AND COMMUNISM Notwithstanding all other indica tions, yet backstage along Parlia ment Hill it is reported that party “whips” will not likely have much influence in discussions or votes on removing the ban on the Communist Party in Canada owing to certain conditions and representatives were allowed to act as they desire on this subject. WAR, SECRECY AND CANADA’S SECURITY It must be revealed now that the man-in-the-street throughout Can ada cannot possibly understand or appreciate thoroughly the exact doings along Parliament Hill in re gard to the extremely important controversy over what can or can not be disclosed on account of war secrecy if there is only an off-hand interpretation of the headlines. Such a casual interpretation or Asumed indifference and nonchalance is in clined to create the impression that something may be wrong, concealed, unknown, mysterious, insidious, un derhand, or surreptitious. In reality,' these essential censorship rules are only being enforced to keep inform ation not from Canadians but rather from the enemy and these laws, cus toms, traditions, restrictions, and taboos of wartime secrecy are only being applied so that the man-in-the- street may be less likely to swing from the pinnacle of hope to the depth of despair in accordance with good or bad news of temporary hap penings on the various war fronts. The man-in-the-street in Canada must bear in mind that war secrecy is the first intrinsic and indispensable constituent principle of a nation’s discipline in war. Therefore,it is important in the highest degreethat the tonality and essence of thecontroversy on parliament Hill over i war secrecy should be interpreted t calmly without any perturbation r and without any prejudice which . might produce judgments, opinions ! or impressions on current war events i or actions without just grounds or L without sufficient knowledge of the actual facts. Two sensational events have* brought forth bitter and bivious controversies over war secrecy and these disputatious differences have . produced the most dramatic features , of the present long session. One highly dramatic event occurr ed when Premier Mackenzie King declined to table in the House of Commons a letter which he had re ceived from LieuL-Col. George Drew wherein the report of the Hong Kong inquiry was criticized. Hon. R. H. Hanson, leader of the Conser vative Party Opposition, denied that all the hearings should have been secret and he did not believe that many documenta relating to the trial should be secret, even alleging that a secret order-in-council had been passed. Mr. M. J. Coldwell, leader the CjC.F. Party, said in part that there were criticisms in the Drew letter that Parliament ought to know “in order that this Parliament may be guided in future in regard to the dispatch, not of 2,000 men, but of many more thousands of men over seas.’* Mr. J. H. Blackmore, leader of the Social Credit Party, said amongst other things that there were revelations in the Drew letter “that should certainly be aired somewhere.” , However, Premier King denied , that a secret order-in-council had ( been passed and he stated that the Drew letter could not be tabled, basing this decision on the legal j opinion of George A. Campbell, K. , C., counsel for. the Hung Kong in- ( quiry. “I have not interfered with , the censorship at any time and do < not intend to do so at this time,” (said Premier King, adding later athat the House of Commons would ] “not wish to be privy to the viola- t tion of any undertaking which exist- , MORE WOOL IS NEEDED CO-OPERATE IN ONTARIO’S EFFORT TO PRODUCE MORE W OOL HELP INCREASE THE SIZE AND NUMBER OF ONTARIO SHEEP FLOCKS PRODUCING more wool to clothe Canada’s fighting forces and her civil population is a vital task which deserves the earnest consider ation of every Ontario farmer. A brief study of the wool production of North America and of world conditions occasioned by the war reveals an alarming situation that “ ' 1 .................... forthright speaking. Narth Ameritm WmI Ptedadha W41 Canada —................ 19,200,000 lbs. United States ...... 455,000,000 lbs. Total ......................... 474,200,000 lbs. DEFICIT ...

You can see that with shipping space at a premium and with every merchantman a target for enemy submarines, the situation is indeed critical. More wool must be produced at home and it’s up to Ontario fanners to help produce it. The Ontario Department of Agriculture is working to effect an increase of 25% in this province. To do this, all present flocks faust be kept, and in addition, 110,000 ewe lambs from the 1942 crop must be kept on the farm. If every Eresent flock owner kept three ewes from this crop, most of the increase would c obtained. But since many sheep owners cannot accommodate any more animals, the Department is asking Ontario farmers to ihublish IjQOO new flocks which will absorb all surplus ewe lamb- Your Agriofltural Representative will be able to put you in touch with men who have lambs for sale or men who wish to purchase them. In establishing 1,000 new flocks, it is intended that expansion take place by counties in proportion to the present sheej) population. You will see what expansion must be accomplished in y ty in rhe lists below.

DEWAN MINISTER DEPUTT MINISTER ONTARIO DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE ■ ed in Britain and -Ohnada.”The other spectacular and sensa-, tionally dramatic episode happenedi when the Hon. J. L. Ralston, Min-i ister of National Defence, and* Hon. Angus Macdonald, Minister of 1 National Defence for Naval Ser- i vices, rebuked a member for dis- i closing three sinkings in the St. ; Lawrence. “I do suggest,” said Hon. J. L. Ralston in part, “that the course, which was suggested to him on Fri day, namely, that he communicate • with the Minister of National De fence for Naval Services, and ascer tain from him whether it was thought to be in the public interest to refer publicity to this matter, would have been a much wiser course.** Then at another point he continued: “We must not, I sub mit, mix up the idea of members of the public or people in the locality having knowledge of such an inci dent and the placing of it on rec ord in Hansard or publishing it in a newspaper whence it is immediately transmitted by friends of the Ger man Government to Germany and it is announced over the German radio. No one suggests that you could pos sibly keep these matters secret from those in the locality but it is a dif ferent matter to make them public so that they can be transmitted to Germany.” “I am very glad to say,” stated Hon. Angus Macdonald, “that the nawspapers of this country have ob served with great care the suggest ions made! He had recalled that he had announced rules at an earlier date about sinkings in the St. Law rence and which subsequently were followed by more explicit orders issued by the censors, indicating that Britain had discontinued announcing the sinkings of ships for good reas ons, though at the start of this war such announcements had been made. “In the first place,” continued Hon. Angus Macdonald, “any imme diate announcement of sinkings will prevent the next-of-kin of casual ties from being informed before the announcement is made. The result is that every person who has a friend or relative on those ships sailing the seas is in anxiety until he gets a letter from that friend. Conse quently, it is only common decency and Christianity to wait for some time, inform the next-of-kin of cas ualties, and when the announce ment of the sinking is made, to say that this has been done, then every one who has not been notified knows that his relatives or friend is nothb mauves or rnend is notinvolved. And then there is another reason, the main reason, of course, which is that announcements of this sort are likely to give useful inform ation to the enemy. That is the chief reason why some secrecy has to be maintained. And the way in which announcements of this sort may beof use to the enemy are many and varied. If he does not get the in formation from us, he has to work it out for himself. He has to separ ate rumor from fact He has to judge the reliability of his informa tion and in a hundred ways he may remain uncertain. But when we in this country, and particularly in this House, give him the information on a platter, then the thing is settled and he does not need any more to enquire as to the accuracy of the matter.” “But if this sort of thing is to go on,” continued the Minister, bring ing up the serious question about the rights and privileges of the House of Commons, “if any honour able member can stand up and by innuendo, by question, or by state ment, jeopardize the whole security system of this country, then 1 am afraid it will be necessary for some one to say that statements of that kind will either not be allowed to be made, or if made, will nat become part of the record of this House.” In other words, war aeerecy on 1 L O B L A W S PRICES EFFECTIVEUntil ciuaiitg «<*». niMiL JUNKETRENNETROWDENS *** 11* MONARCH BrandBO® x-ib. nogCUBES - - Z l* —— vwvnn o Mssornco £ Sandwich Spreadic « . « nr t •a r 1 f- 2 - 2 7 * ___-__ 2 -2 S «.

The contrary is true. The Government is willing to hold secret sessions when such sit tings are necessary to discuss any or all phases of the war, though a con trary impression has sometimes been created when the Government emphasized that the need must be proven first privately to the proper Minister, particularly since excess ive numbers of secret sessions may produce wrong impressions. Again and again, this has been reiterated on Parliament Hill whenever the battle over what can or cannot be disclosed on account of war secrecy provoked great excitement or furious passion among the legislators, with this controversy being one of the highlights of the long session..— (Re production Prohibited.)

Vitamins arc vital importance in everything iw e eat, so it’s your business to see that vitamins arc given priority on your home-fro •; menus. According to nutrition experts, plenty of people are not getting their share of these mysterious elements that give us health and strength, because they do not eat the right foods. Without a proper supply of vital vitamins your health soon suffers and even if we had enough to eat so that we were never actually hungry, we would become nervous easily, our teeth would tend to decay, our skin become lifeless, and we would drag through our work feeling tired and depressed all the time.At this time of year, vitaminsabound in almost everything we eat,but wise marketing and careful meal planning will guarantee us enough of the essential vitamins the year round. Meat organs and the colourful vegetables contain more vitamins than fat pieces of meat and colourless vegetables.

The John White Co., Ltd. WOODSTOCK - ONT. Department of Agriculture Opens Sheep Campaign 1,000 new Bocks objective for this year, state* live stock official for Ontario. Canada is facing a serious wool shortage. Fanners from coast to coast are being asked to increase sheep production, as one million more sheep are required for 1843, agricultural officials state. • Ontario farmers have done an ex cellent job in producing wartime foods such as cheese, pork, eggs and condensed milk and are now being asked to increase the sheep popula tion of the province by 25 per cent The Ontario campaign now get ting under way, is under the per sonal direction of W. P. Watson, Live Stock Branch, Ontario Depart ment of Agriculture. Mr. Watson states that the present sheep popu lation is approximately 440,000 and 25 per cent increase will require the retention og 110,000 ewe lambs. Total sheep marketings hut year were approximately 250,000 heads with about half the marketings being males. “This means,” said Mr. Watson, “that most of the 1842 ewe lamb crop must be salvaged for breeding purpose*. “There are 36,000 Ontario farmers keeping sheep. If each of these men retain three ewe lambs in addition to those required for replacement, the necessary increase will be attained. However, a great many flock, owners ar* already keeping all . they can properly accommodate, so new flocks must be established. Our objective sfor 1842 is 1,000 new flocks”, said Mr. Watson. “They should be es- tablished in counties moat suitable for sheep raising. Counties have been divided into Categories A, B and C, according to present sneep population.” Counties in “A” eatogory-wbere over 5.000 lambs were marketed lastyear—will ta t0 three new flock* p«r township. They include Bruce, Carleton, Dufferin, Durham, Grey, Hastings. Huron, Lambton, Lanark, Manitoulin. Mid- ^*ex. Ontario, Rainy River, Ren- borough, Waterloo and Wentworth. All other counties not included in above categories will be asked to establish one new flock in each township.

The one figure turned andbent above the lock, the other tooka step back, looking down. Glidden held his breath. He held it because of Twombley’snext action. The broker stretchedout his right arm toward thatbowed head above which, as itsowner leaned forward, the rear flapof the sunbonnet flopped, leavingthe neck exposed. Jerry could seeTwombley’s fist open, the fingersspread wide. Lately Glidden had likened Angela to a wolf. The broker'sstealthily advancing arm. above itspotential victim's turned head, resembled a venomous snake. Jerrywatched the two, fascinated. The fingers closed. Slowly, Ex-p- 'r tally.

"11 that guy doesn't really try it, I've got to keep quiet and sistill. But if he goes to it. it'll up to me to yell and tackle him.'' The arm stole nearer; the fingerscrooked. Jerry crouched like arunner on the line. Twombley, however, changed hismind—or it was changed for him.His intended prey stood erect andfaced quickly about. The threatening arm fell. So nearly simultaneously did these things happen thatJerry couldn't tell which happenedfirst. The shanty's door opened, andthe ill-paired couple went in. Shouldhe, Jerry demanded of his judgment, have warned the woman inorder that she mighrTje on herguard in the future? Should hewarn her now? He had. be reasoned. no liking for her, of course;he was quite clearly convinced thatshe was engaged in some nefarious plot affecting his own interests. "But a woman's a woman, after all.” he said. "If I butted in. I'd give my show away. Still, ought Ito?"What followed raised no furtherfear of the unfair attack being resumed. Atiptoe Jerry ran acrossthe bare land and through thekitchen garden. He put an eyeto the keyhole—darkness. An ear—apd he heard: "Don't tempt me any more.

He peeped around its trunk till he observed thebroker fully started on a leisurely stroll in the direction of the jturnpike. Then/ having skirted the cliff , edge, Jerry made what haste hecould along a course parallel to that idistant highway. He must aban- |don the detour through the woods;it was too roundabout. He preferred to reach Ironburgahead of his hotelmate, so that thelatter would suppose the announcedwalk to and from Americus had ended at a normal hour. To be sure. Angle might havetold of his appearance at the store, ■ but there was chance enough thather mysterious dislike of Tworn-*bley had withheld this information; | therefore, as soon as Jerry thought jthis hurry had given him sufficient jleeway, he struck across country ■to the pike and hurried on to thevillage.

He crossed the road. Shadows filled the store. It wasa relief that the place should seemagain untended, especially as, atthe center of the counter, under asmoky swinging lamp, lay a sheet of ordinary note paper bearing his name: the expected message fromTroy.

Appreciation of TheObvious— by —Eveline A. Leng Many of the obvious things of life are obvious simply because they have been always with us. We know we have had them only when we are deprived of them, and so value them at their true worth when they are no more. It is so with all we possess as inhabitants of the earth. We breathe freely and deeply of air, untainted by human agency, and then know that we have robbed ourselves of what was once a prop erty common to us all. We know what we were supposed to have, but what is now ours only as we are able to live by lake or mountain, far enough removed from man and his genius for contaminating and alter ing what the Creator so freely gave. In such surroundings we breathe deeply and feel alive and wonder if that "live” feeling was what made the founders of this continent so keen to do and to enjoy, so able to accomplish the arduous work that settlement of a new country entails, so ready to enjoy the simple amuse ments and relaxations of their little spare time. We've gained tremendously through our inventiveness: we have added immeasureably to our poss essions, but how much we have lost. Isn’t it true that we have lost to a great extent the joy in work well | could clothe her family warmly andwell? She couldn’t count her dressesby the score perhaps, but she didscore a triumph every time herloom turned out a fine piece ofcloth and her hands dyed it and sew ed it patiently, stitch by stitch, into the finished garment That kind of joy, we are knowing leas and less and we sense the joy only as we have lost it Perhaps Ghandi wasn't only hopingfi to defeat Brit ish imperialism when he re-introdu ced the hand-loom to the village people of India. Maybe he knew that they would acquire some por tion of the joy of achievement of which the machine is surely robbing this age. We cannot go back and learn to recreate with our own hands. That joy is denied us, but joy of some sort we must have. We seek it fev erishly. We no longer sing and play, but listen to others, often to our petulant dissatisfaction, over the radio. We don’t even play games but take a vicarious enjoyment from seeing professionals do it for us. We have forgotten the (Immense satisfaction of walking and taking in a view slowly and completely. Instead we skim by, glimpsing a rapidly disappearing panorama and in so doing, cover with dust what done? Does the mechanic, turning out, with the aid of marvellous machines, his thousands of little gadgets, feel the keen satisfaction that his forefather experienced when he had produced by the exercise of his own skill and patience, one sim ilar piece? He doesn’t; he cannot, for it is no longer the work of his hands. The machine has defeated him, robbed him of the God-given joy ’anyone feels in producing some thing entirely his own. That joy our forbears knew. They toiled ceaselessly and watched the thing grew from formlessness to beauty. They wrought after years of patient toil a beautiful gate that still stands, a pattern in black lace, at the en trance to church or estate. The-- carved exquisite fretting* and lovely designs that find their place in an cient cathedral and barpnial halL They loved their work; they saw it grow; they gave to it all they had of skill and patience; they trans ferred their love of beauty, their love of the simple, natural things of the Out-doors to other media, and made beauty grow there too. The artist and the artisan were one and the same person. And not only so was it in the realm of things beautiful. Must it not have been a supreme satifaction for the housewife of other days to know that the clothes her family wore, the linens and woollens they used, were all the work of her busy hands; that given the wool from the backs of her husband's sheep, she little beauty we, in our thoughtless ness and stylishness, are leaving for other generations to enjoy. When our forests have gone and our streams are dried up and our abundant wild life has disappeared, we shall know that the obvious beauty of another day was ap preciated; it was destroyed. Only as the obvious, the freely given, the common possessions of us all, are no more, shall we know their worth and understand what we have lost.

The place selected for the execution was the middle of a trestle bridge spaning a river. The first noose was insecurely tied, and the prisoner dropped to the river. He swam to shore and made good his escape. As they were adjusting the rope for the remaining prisoner, the latter drawled: “Say, pards, make sure of the knot this time, will yer, ’cause I can’t awim.” A Canadian private and Britishcorporal entered a “pub” some where in England and each ordered a beer. Before drinking hib, thecorporal went out to buy a paper.The barmaid, a pretty wench, purred her lips invitingly and leaned.overthe bar towards the shy young Canadian. Putting her face against his, she whispered: "Now’s your chance, Canada.” The private looked around the empty room. “By golly, so it is,” he said, and promptly drank the cor poral's beer.
