This terrible war has now entered the third phase of barbarism and destruction. First came the period of awakening when all free nations realized that a force of evil had duringa number of years been preparing to destroy the freedom enjoyed by all freedom-loving people.The second phase came when our Dominion, along with our Allies, endeavored to prepare for fullcombat with the enemy. All agencies for conflict were being produced to that end and now we are ready.This brings us to the third phase which calls for action by every individual citizen of Canada.The flower of our manhood are now serving in the Army, in the Navy, in the Air Force, blit that is not enough. We, ourselves, must do our full part.The task confronting us is difficult but the fact that it is difficult is a challenge so, “nothing matters now but Victory.” Do you remember the words of Prime MinisterWinston Churchill? “We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in Frgnce. We shall fight on the seas, and ocean. We shall fight on the beaches. We shall fight on the landing ground. We shall fight in the fields and streets.” Let us as loyal Canadians fight on the land, in our villages, in our towns and in our cities, not with shells and bombs and tanks, but with our individual effort and with our individual savings. Our dollarsbecome Victoiy Bonds. These Victory Bonds be­ come bombs to cany the message to Hitler. We, thedescendants of the pioneers of this country, of this fair Canada of ours, must resurrect the old heroic spirit of sacrifice, offering all that we are and all that we have so that this nation, “our Canada” may be preserved for ourselves and the generations that areto follow. Canada is worth living in.Canada is worth fighting for. Canada is worth lending to.Remember we are asked to lend our money to preserve our own and our nation’s freedom. NOTHING MATTERS NOW BUT VICTORY Dr. J. G. Murray, Mayor of Ingersoll. RALPH D. STEELE HEARD AT KIWANIS “The Canadian Changes His Out­look”, was the subject of an ad­dress by Ralph D. Steele, Cha tn am barrister, at the regular weeklymeeting of the Ingersoll Ki wan isClub at the St. Charles Hotel Coffee Shop on Thursday evening last at6.15. Club President Henry I. Stewartoccupied the chair and the clubmembership was increased by three when Public School Inspector L. B.Hyde was received as a new memberand two former members, James W. Hagan and Dr. L. W. Staples werewelcomed back. Kiwanian CliffordA. Love and members of his com­ mittee, Dr. C. A. Osborn and Alex.Yule introduced the members who were officially welcomed by Presi­dent H. I. Stewart.The guest speaker, Ralph D.Steele, was introduced to the gather­ing by Kiwanian Rev. H. E. Meri-field, a college friend.Mr, Steele in the course of his re­ marks, stressed the fact that Canad­ians should be proud of their his­ tory and traditions even though oursis a young country. Touching on thetremendous resources of Canada with its small population, the speakerheld that it was the duty of thepeople to see that people from other lands be given an opportuniay to be­come citizens of Canada and help inthe further development of the country.It was pointed out that the indus­trial nations have made greater pro­ gress in the past few years than theagricultural nations and that Can­ada had been woefully weak indus­ trially at the outbreak of the war, acondition which was rapidly beingremedied. It was the opinion of the speaker that if Canada is to be abalanced nation after the war, cap­able of standing on her own feet, the development of industry must becontinued along progressive lines. He urged his audience to drop anynegative standards of citizenship andco-operate by contributing the best efforts possible to secure the maxi­mum good for all.Kiwanian C. L. Bole expressed the thanks of the gathering to thespeaker for his fine talk. Mayors Appointed A* Chairmen of Local Board* individual communities will go along way toward accelerating Can­ ada’s war effort. Within one week all mayors and reeves in the 57 centres in WesternOntario, designated by the WartimePrices and Trade Board, have accept- jpd their appointment as chairmen ofy„ie new Wartime ration boards.W. Harold McPhillips, regional prices and -apply representative,in acknowledging appointments com­plimented the chairmen on their prompt action in assuming thia newresponsibility.Involving 600 citizens in Western Ontario, the ration board machineryis expected to roll by the first ofNovember. Chairmen are now giving consideration to selecton of theBoards, which will comprise fromfour to eight members. Panels ofrepresentative citizens will be for­ warded to Ottawa for final approvalby Mr. Donald Gordon. Committeeswill be announced within a few days.It is believed that the new sy­stem will make it possible for resi­dents in isolated districts to r.celve the same consideration of their ra­tioning problems as those who live.in metropolitan centres. This impressive undertaking by Regulation* Assure Fair Distribution W. Harold McPhillips, regional prices and supply representative of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board, announces a n£w move on the part of the Board to assure equitable distri­ bution of existing civilian commodi­ ties. Manufacturers and wholesalers through this latest development will give the same consideration to all customers. If a supplier has available in 1942 only 60 per cent of the goods distributed last year, his customer is entitled to a quota of 60 per cent of the purchases he made in 1941. Where manufacturers or wholesal­ ers can set aside a small back-log of any commodity, they wil hold these goods for retailers who need addition­ al supplies due to an increase in the population of their centre. Victory Loan Campaign Opened Here Monday The only figures available at press time on Wednesday in connection with the sale of the new Victory Bonds were those for the town of Ingersoll up until Tuesday night John G. Montgomery, secretary of the Local Committee, stated to The Tribune that the amount reported was within a few dollars of $27,UOO.

New Idea Furnaces Limited is the first local industry to report one hundred per cent of their employees subscribing to the new loan. A can­ raw of that firm was made early in the week .and the President apd Gen­ eral Manager of the company, Fred C. Moore, announced on Tuesday that every employee had subscribed for bonds under the pay roll deduct­ ion plan. Coffee Substitutes Under Surveillance Since the advent of rationing, War­ time Prices and Trade Board offic­ ials have kept close check on coffee substitutes. Residents are warned that the sales of any compound with coffee in it falls under the ration rules for substitutes containing cof­ fee, On the other hand, substitute* in which no coffee is used, meh os unblended chicory, are not rationed.

No oneshould seek to be labelled either,refusing to change that label, for the labelling of the individual is al­ways foolish. It should be restrictedto packaged goods or merchandise generally, never to the human being,where the equation is always liableto quick change. I was listening to the eveningbroadcast by the Canadian commen­tator, Wilson Woodside, when hewarned against the somewhat toogeneral tendency to minimize ourdisasters and to play up our minorvictories. He, as he says, is not a confirmed pessimist, and his studiedcentre-of-the-road policy of review­ing the daily war situation would confirm that opinion, so that whenhe warns against that attitude ofmind that must see things through rose-coloured glasses, he is doing usa service. It is only as we see con­ditions as they are, neither brighternor too awfully calamitous, that we are going to understand the necess­ity of doing our utmost to win thelast battle, that last battle which the too complacent are apt to see aseventually and inevitably turningthe tide in our favour. It is quite possible for the last battle to befought and won before we areaware that it is the last, and in thatevent it would not be won by us.Pessimists invariably take theview' that all is lost and what’s theuse of doing anything further about it. The optimist, on the other hand,happily carols, “God’s in His heaven,all’s right with the world so why worry.” He may be right about Godbeing in His heaven, but nothing iswell with the world unless He is in it too. Very often we haven’t caredto have Him here, for His presence isant to interfere with our selfishideas of well-being. Nothing the pessimist can sayabout the war is too gloomy at themoment, but the negative attitudeof the pessimist is all wrong. Hehas his use if he makes us sec *hevery seriousness of the situation, but it isn’t necessary to see, as hedoes, the hopelessness of trying to rectify it to learn from our mis­takes. We can wring victory fromdefeat, and it is there that the op­timist in us has his <uy. He knowsthat victory can be won, that effortm the right direction can bring about the state portrayed in hisfavourite aphorism, “All's rightwith the world.”We are. as a rule, and as indivi­ duals, neither wholly pessimist norwholly optimist We lean co theone or the other as the mood takesus, and that is as well. To be entirelypessimistic would be to create aworld of misanthropes, wherein everything must assume the funeralblackness of Milton’s Stygian cavesforlorn, a world blackout that wouldquickly end the world. On the other hand to dwell entirely in that unrealworld of the sublimated optimistwould be to live in a fool’s paradise, and no one lives there long withoutexperiencing a sickening deflation ofthe rosy balloon that Folds him aloft,to bring him back to earth with a sudden and uncomfortable thud.T« see clearly the truth of thepessimist’s grim warnings and vet to be able to nroflt by the elation ofthe optimist's happy expectations, isto be wholly able to »"eet whatevermay chance. A midd’e of the road -<-s«rse mav not carrv us to loftyheight*. but neither does It let usdown into the pit of despair. land.Gunner Bennett, a native of Eng­ land, has been in Canada since 1931and was a resident of the Ingersoll district for seven years previous tohis enlistment and at the time he signed up w®s employed on the farmof Harley McBeth, near Salford. Heenlisted at London on February 20, 1941, and trained at Guelph andSussex, New Brunswick, before being sent overseas in August 1941,He arrived in England September 1st last year and was overseas justone year. His unit operated the Bo- for anti aircraft guns and were sta­tioned on coastal air-craft defence. Gunner Bennett called at The Tri-Iftine office to express his apprecia­ tion for The Tribune which he re­ceived regularly while overseas. He asked that his thanks be extended tothe employees of the Morrow Screw & Nut Company Limited, The Ing­ersoll Cream Cheese Company, TheIngersoll Branch of the Canadian Legion, The'-Ingersoll Kiwanis Club and the ladies of the AnglicanChurch for gifts sent him while in England. He stated he enjoyed read­ing the news from home and whenhe finished reading The Tribune he passed the papers on to Bob. Clark of the 12th Field Unit of the R.C.A.,who formerly worked for Alfred Dkkout near Salford. Gunner Bennett spoke very high­ ly of the fine treatment he receivedwhile in a hospital in England and lauded the work of the Canadiannurses who are on the staff of the institution where he was confined.While overseas he visited his mother, Mrs. Lillian Hunt at Querns Lane,Cirencester, Gloucestershire. He stated that Captain Rev. Charles D.Daniel went over on the same boat as he did with the 3rd division but he did not see him after reachingEngland. The only Insetsoil boy he met overseas was Gunner CharlesKelly. Men Overseas Thank Kiwanis Club For Smokes Some of the proceeds from the recent Kiwanis Carnival will go to­wards the efforts of the club in «.hcirmany activities and means of help­ ing the men in the armed forcesboth at home and overseas.

Chishom, chairman of the WarService Committee of the club, fromthe boys who have received gifts from the club speak for themsekesas to the manner in which the thingssent are appreciated.Pte, James Deamude, at No. 10Basic Training Centre, Kitchener, writes; "Would you be kind enoughto give my thanks to the IngersollKiwanis Club for the most useful money belt that was presented tome by them.”A letter written by Corporal C. F. Hodgett from Somew^ere-in-Eng-land, “Kindly accept mymost sincere thanks for the three hundred cigarettes which I received.I appreciate them very much, alsoThe Tribune which I have been re­ ceiving pretty regular. I havenoticed several letters from someof the boys on this side of the water, which I am sure lets you know howmuch your gifts of cigarettes anddelivery of The Tribune are appre­ ciated through the efforts of ourfriends at home. Bombardier S. F. Chamberlain ina short note states: “Many thanks for the carton of cigarettes, that Ireceived. You sure sre doing agrand job of seeing that we have our smokes over here, and we cer­tainly appreciate them.” Signalman W. G. Kerr writes: “Words cannot express my apprec­iation to all who help to send u»cigarettes. The people of Ingersoll have been certainly grand to all thehome town boys,” and Lance Cor­poral D. p. Howe states on the back of an acknowledgment card. "Justa line to again thank you for yourkind gift of cigarettes, also for The Tribune. Both of them are verywelcome.

NOTES As the activities of the Collegiate get underway, the religious period* which were instituted last year nt the Collegiate, have been resumed. Rev. R. H. Parr, Thursday morning, pre­ sented the students with an inspir­ ing address, “Go Forward.” He im­ pressed upon them the fact that ex­ periences of the past are not ade­ quate to meet the needs of the fu­ ture. He .-•poke of the coming com­ mencement where students will be awarded for their efforts of last year—but stressed they should go ahead to new achievements and suc­ cesses to develop themselves in char­ acter and in mind. He quoted'Den- ton Massey’s truism that you cannct saw sawdust—you must saw new wood. It is not sufficient for the in­ dividual to rest on past laurels. Mi, Parr concluded with the thought that students should advance to higher spheres because they will be the coming generation and they will build the new world described in the scriptural passage, Rev. 21:1-9, from which he chose his theme.

CONCERT OPENS THEVICTORYLOAN DRIVEThe patriotic concert held onSunday evening which marked theopening of the Third Victoiy Loan,was very well attended. Rev. R. H.Parr acted as chairman for the fineprogram, the various phases of whichwere all of a most inspiring nature.Pte. Tom Bibby, M.M., who has just returned to his home in Wood- stock after taking part in the Dieppe raid, was an honoured guest on this occasion. Pte. Bibby answered ques­ tions submitted by the audience and through his answers presented a picture of the excellent and gallant work of our men in uniform. Pte. Bibby, a veteran of the first Great War, who enlisted three years ago, with the R.C.A.M.C., was the only medical orderly on one of the craft which lay off the coast of France for nine hours under heavy fire. He was reticent about his own part in the raid, but praised the work done by others. Mr. Parr urged upon the audience the necessity of supporting the Vic­ tory' Loan and so to provide the .material needed to help such gallant men as Pte. Bibby described. The musical portion of the pro- | gram included a comet solo by Mas­ ter Jimmy Miller; a beautiful vocal solo, "Lords of the Air," by Miss Marion Follick; "Land of Hope and Glory," sung by the Trinity United Church choir with Mrs. H. Uren as soloist. During the latter part of the program the church was nimineu while the organist, Mr. Ewart Bartley played “Abide with Me”, in mem­ ory of those who fell at Dieppe. Fol- Io*wing this, "Rule Britannia’’, was sung as the spotlight played on a beautiful silk Union Jack. P. H. Bartlett, county organizer for the Victory Loan, thanked all those who had given of their time without remuneration. Mrs. Bibby was introduced to the audience at this time. Dr. J. M. Rogers, chair­ man of the loan committee for Ing­ ersoll, spoke briefly, urging upon his hearers the magnitude of the job that must be done if we are to keep our country free. He commen­ ded the splendid work of the minis­ ters of the town in this connection and emphasized that “we simply have got to put this thing over.” The story of the commando dag­ ger which is the symbol of the Third Victory Loan was told by Mr. F. Earle Johnston, publicity chairman, who stated that he'felt the symbol to be a call to action. Mr. Johnston let the dagger tell its own story and it was a stirring one. It urged that the boys w<ho will use it in the raids that will come, will go with the knowledge of the faith and support of those at home and that these boys will never be let down through the lack of the tools of war. Special prayers were offered by Rev. H. H. Turner and Rev. H. E. Merifield during the program which concluded with the singing of the National Anthem and the benedict­ ion by Rev. R. H. Parr.

In this critical year of the war—when everything depends on an all-out effort—every dollar that Canadians can muster must be a fighting dollar. While they are fighting, they remain YOURdollars. But if you spend money oh things you can do without, you are withholding these needed dollars from the war effort. You arekeeping them out of the fight. Men are fighting and dying for freedom—giving their all that we may remain free. YOU are asked only to LEND your money toback them up. Victory Bonds are guaranteed by the full resources of the Domin­ ion of Canada. They yield a fair rate of interest They can readily be sold when you need the cash. After the war, you will be glad of this money you have saved and loaned to Canada. You can spend it THEN on the things youwant - NOTHING MATTERS NOW BUT VICTORY Buy the New VICTORY BONDS the church bazaar to be held early in December.

I. werecompleting their field day events,the boys listened to a ver}' interest­ ing talk by Bill Stone on “The Driv­ing and Maintenance of ArmyTrucks,” in which he described* a course in this pha?e of army workwhich he took recently at Woodstock.At the outset, he stated that as a rifleman in the infantry is taught totake care of his rifle because it ishis best friend, so the army driver is taught not only to drive his truckbut to care for it as well. Explain­ing the gears and relative speeds of each, he pointed out that brakes arealmost never used. Instead, an armydriver is taught to de-gear his truck,that is to change from the highergear to the lower, until his truckcomes almost to a standstill. Thedriver is taught to do this becausebrakes are ndt always dependable and are useless on a slippery sur­face. He 'described also the difficul­ties of night convoy driving. Because there is nothing to guide a driverexcept the slightly illuminated dif­ferential housing of the preceding truck, it requires intense concentra­tion to keep on the road.Concluding his talk. Bill declared the experience be gained in his fiveday course to be most valuable. $217.87 Raised On Scout Apple Day The local Boy Scouts and CubTroops held their annual Apple TagDay on Saturday, October 17th andwere successful in raising a total of $217.87 from the sale of apples.
