Last Friday evening, the Y’s Men's Club met at the St Charles Coffee Shop. The business was con­ ducted by the president Bert Carr. Frank Cragg led the sing-song 'assisted by Ross Bigham at the piano. The boys’ work chairman, Gordon Pittock, presented a report on the hockey project and Jack Young, chairman of the world out­ look committee read a communica­ tion from Dr. A. J. Brace who ex­ pressed his thank* for the club’s donation to the China War Relief Fund. The president also drew the members’ attention to the need of blood donors for the Red Cross. The speaker of the evening was Mr. Nelson McEwen of the National Council of the YjMjC.A., Toronto. He related the history of the Y.M.C. A. and the part it has played in the development of boys' work. The organization was founded in June of 1844 in England. In 1851 it was im­ ported to Montreal and a club started in November of that year, and from here the idea was taken to Boston, Mass., where a club was formed in December of 1851. It has now spread to 52 countries of the world. There is a membership of two million people in North America alone. The YM.CA. founded organized boys’ work in 1873, organized boys’ camps in 1888 and organized play­ grounds at a later date. Since then communities have taken over the latter project The father and son movement was also begun by the Y.M.C.A. The National Council also imported the Boy Scopt Movement from England. The speaker said, “At one time people thought you were touched in the head if you did boys’ work. Not until Kiwanis, Kinsmen and other service clubs adopted the idea, did it become popular. “There is a dan­ ger of the exploitation of the boy for the glorification of the Club." “What is the definition of boys' works?" asked Mr. McEwen. It is not doing things for boys, not taking care of them, not giving them some­ thing, not amusing them, not taking them for hikes, swims, etc., but by wring the skills of a social engineer to help the boys be self-directing, self-respecting and self-controlled citizens. The procedure has a scientific bgsis. It is- not an easy job. A con­ tact has to be made with the boys and a group formed of the whole ‘gang’, with a suitable leader to work with them. Boy* who play to­ gether must be in the same group and pledge themselves to the same ideals, otherwise an individual doing so alone, would be wrongly influ­ enced on returning to the old 'gang* who had not taken on the same responsibilities of character maintainance or code of ethics. "iWhat are the thing* that really influence a boy’s character?’’ en­ quired the speaker. It has been found that the boy shapes his char- (Continued on page 4) Mrs. Kenneth White and Mina Mar­ garet Hollingshead were hostesses at their home on Carnegie street on Tuesday evening for the regular meeting of the Presbyterian Guild.

By tak­ ing the first game of the two out of three series by the same score, this gave them the South Oxford League championship. The Machine Co. took the lead in the first period, when after four minutes of play, Cole grabbed a loose puck near the Kintore net, and drove it home for the first score. A tripping penalty to Griffin of Kintore, produced no scoring as the blue and .whites ably held the fort After 11 minutes of play, Bowes put the blue and reds two goals up, when his shot glanced off McDonald’s pads. The period ended, Machine Co. 2, Kintore, 0. Shortly after the start of the sec­ ond period, Longfield and Brewer went to the sin fcfrl for tripping, and with this advantage, Kintore pressed hard and came close several times, but Noe held them off. At the nine minute mark, Bowes scored his sec­ ond goal with Kintore a man short, Jordan having been hlgh-sticked. Three minutes later, Bradfield scored to make it 4-0. The period ended this way. To'open the last period, Kintore were quickly rewarded with a goal, when Griffin skated in on Noe to score, immediately after the face­ off. D. McDonald was chased for holding, but again the locals failed to take advantage of it. Kintore cut the lead down to two, when Ken. Robson scored from close in after nine minutes of play. Beemer got the nod for sinking a butt-end into M. Robson’s ribs. , In the closing minutes of play, Jordan and D. McDonald started swinging, which precipitated a gen­ eral riot, with, payers from both teams and spectators joining in. Referee George Hayes imposed majors on Jordan and McDonald, but as the latter received a badly cut forehead, Ken. Robson was sub stituted for him. No further scoring resulted, the game ending Machine Co, 4, Kintore, 2, The teams: Kintore—Goal, B. McDonald; de­ fence, D. McDonald, Bright; centre, M. Robson; " wing*, , K.

MARCH 11, 1943 To Spite the Face How strange it is that in this year •f 1943, a group of Canadian work, ers in Ontario should decide to threaten the powers that be by announcing that if they cannot get as much beer as they require, when they require it, they will retaliate by refusing to buy Victory bonds and by selling those which they have already bought How everybody would laugh at a man who announ­ ced that because the city would not run a water main to his house, he was not going to save any more noney, and in addition, he was going to cancel his fire and life in­ surance policies. Yet there is little to choose between the attitude of this little group of workers and the man who wanted a water main. The attitude of these angry beer seekers appears to be developed by * feeling that when people buy Vic­ tory Bonds they are doing the coun­ try a favor. What they fail to grasp, is this. Sure, the Canadian men who put themselves up as targets for enemy bullets need all the fighting equipment we can supply through the purchase of bonds, but they do not get that equipment as a favor. When we buy bonds, we favor only ourselves. We put our savings where they are fully protected from loss, and we get three per cent interest, which is good profit in these days of reduced interest rates. These Ontario men might have just as well said, "If you won’t let us buy the ibeer we want, we will punish ourselves -further by ceasing to be concerned about our own fu­ ture, and by losing the money we have been making on the bonds we have already bought.’’ The Ingersoll Choral Society scored a great success when they made their initial public appearance in the town hall.

From — THE CANADIAN RED CROSS SOCIETY Words Should be Rationed Dogs make loud yappings when they fight?’ said thp old man of letters as he cleaned up his desk for the first and last time, "but wolves fight in silence, and a wolf can lick a dog any day of the week. That is why I am quitting writing and get­ ting a war job doing something use­ ful." This was a serious indictment of the value of words among the stri­ dent noises of the times. The man of letters was a wise old man and he was tired of words. He said he couldn’t understand how Goethe managed to get anything written with Napoleon around. “Sure,’’ he aded, ‘‘I know the sword of the United Nations is being used to cs- 'tablish the might of the pen and all that stuff, but in the meantime the pen is just a dog barking around the edges of the fight And look at the ancient Greeks! They were good at words, but, the Romans moved in. •n .them when Rome was still ig­ norant enough to be full of fight.'

Maybe it hasn't been total war for this coun­ try, in spite of^ill our b>$ state­ments, but it’s got to be total vJaP*if we are going to win.” "Sure! Just what I say,” agreed the old man. “Total war means everybody grabs a sword. No pens." "Doesn't the value of words de­ pend somewhat oh the words anu tow they are strung together?" sug- gested the editor. ‘(Words should be rationed and used carefully.

We all jknow that vitamins are a "must” in our wartime diet if we are to/have the necessary energy and vitality with which to tackle the jobs that lie ahead. Did you ever think of growing your own vita­ mins? No. Well, it cun be done, and you can get a big kick out of doing it, too! Winter is giving its last kick and spring is fast approaching. Take a look at that plot of (ground behind the house, one of these days and be­ gin. planning for that fine vegetable (or should we say vitamin) garden’. Flower gardens are definitely “out” for the duration, and os for leaving the backyard for the children to play in, it-just isn’t done anymore! Those same children will have a much more enjoyable time helping you plan your Victory garden. Beans, carrots, peas, tomatoes, cabbage, lettuce, swiss chard, all these vegetables can be grown in the average family backyard. They’ll have every bit as much vitamin con­ tent as the vegetables you buy, too. And what is more, you'll have the satisfaction of having grown them yourself, to say nothing of the Ex­ cellent exercise you will have in the fresh air, in preparing, plant­ ing and tending your garden. There’s a certain pride which can be gained in no other way in wat­ ching living things grow which you Have planted and cared for ^aursejf. And when you pass,your invi(eed guest the 7 cabbage or carrots find say: “J .grew these in our own gar­ den,” it will give you a glow of pride that is well -worth experien­ cing. Perhaps that backyard lot of yours has lain idle for years. After all, a piece of ground that produces nothing is.,something like a man who contributes nothing to the community |n which he Hyes. So, if you want to be truly patriotic in 1943, plant your own Vitamin Vic­ tory Garden, grow 'your own vita­ mins, experience the zest that work in the soil can bring, and eat the vitamin-laden fruits of your toil. We’ll bet you dollars to doughnuts that you get more thrill out of it than anything you've ever tried Plan that garden today!

Here are excerpts from actual letters: “I am a prisoner-of-war. I am safe and sound and not wounded. I need your help through the medium of the Red Cross to obtain what I need to eat, clothe myself and smoke.” * I am a prisoner-of-war. I am not wounded. Health and morale excel­ lent. They have put us in an or­ ganized camp. Thanks to Red Cross parcels two or three times per week, we eat enough to live. We do our own cooking. Keep smiling.” "It’s not going much better since 1 am in my real camp. We are eat­ ing more, thanks to the Red Cross.” "I am safe and sound. I am a prisoner-of-war but we are well enough. We have the Red Cross helping' us very much.” “The Red Cross are still faithful friends and deserve all the support they can get.” “The Red Cross parcels are what we make our meals on.” “These prison camps are not bad. The Red Cross sure is doing good work here.” "Our food is fair but it is the Red Cross food parcels which help us out Round about Christmas a a lot of Canadian parcels come in and they were the best we have had yet.” "Thank God.lor the Red Cross! It is a bit trying eating out of tin cans with one’s fingers.” 'As you know, I was taken in only shirt and un4erponte. All goes well thanks to -Red Cross parcels and other food parcels which the British share with us. It will be a great day when ours start coming through. They are vital.” “I’m in a German hospital (Eng­ lish staffed) nursing a broken right arm . , souvenir of Dieppe. Being well treated, thanks to Red Cross!” “It is with a prayer of thankful­ ness that I write these few words. I thank God that we have a Red Cross in this troubled world.

Pancakes—those good old-time favourites— will be featured on Shrove Tuesday, (March 10). in patriotic fashion. It used to be the style to serve pan­ cakes on this day dotted with “gobs” of butter and smothered inmaple syrup. Nowadays they areserved first of all for their nutritive value. Pancakes made of flour and milk are energy-giving; served withmeat, they substitute for the pro­ verbial potato; served with fruit, they glorify the dessert course. Here’s a trick worth knowing—asplendid way to hide leftovers. Put pieces of meat, finely diced veget­ ables or chopped fruit right in thepancake batter.Hurray! The syrup problem is solved. Instead of syrup, try using fruit juice thickened with corn­starch (1 tb. per cup of juice).Your second problem—waste of materia] and time—is solved if you use our tested recipes.S® just stir up the batter and your pancakes will be ready to serve in an amazingly short time—andwho doesn’t like them! used in above recipe instead ofsweet milk.

We’ve got to buy more War Savings stamps in order to help the war effort, and we’ve got to buy more Stamps in order to feather our own nests for the future. Forgetting patriotism en­ tirely, we are doing a good stroke of business for ourselves. “And what,” asks the sarcastic little woman who lives across the hall, “do we use for money?" There are a hundred substitutes for money, the handiest being WORK! Hold on, you . . . it’s not half so bad as it sounds. In the first place, we have accustomed our­ selves to think that we must avoid all kind of work except executive work for which we get paid. But there’s a kind of work that will help us to save money; to avoid paying somebody else to do it. Then, that money can be put into War Savings Stamps. Think more, plan better, use your imagination. Pit your wits against the needs of the day. Never say, “Oh, I can't be bothered!” This phrase has become practically a national slogan in Canada within the memory of living man. “Aren’t you going to turn off the light in your kitchen?" you ask the girl across the way. "Oh, I can’t be bothered,” she answers, comfortably inert on the chesterfield. She snaps on lights all over the place when she could see quite well without them. It’s a A.R.P. Ready At Ford Plant TJEADY far any emergency, flic A.R.P. organization at the great war plant of Ford of Canada at Windsor numbers approximatelyl.OTO men. They have been trained to fight incendiaries, render firstaid and to cope generally with eventualities should the Windsor in­dustrial area ever become the target for enemy bombers. Ford workersMike Delaney, left, and Charles Maitland, right demonstrate the equip­ ment provided. In the background is one of the 30 A.R.P. lockerslocated at strategic positions throughout the plant Each locker contains additional first aid supplies and sufficient of all equipmentto completely outfit five teams of three men eack habit. Of course, for reading, that’s a different matter. “Couldn’t you mend that pillow slip? . . . Couldn’t you wash Junior's play suit instead of sending it to the cleaners? Couldn’t you do your own nails and walk at least one way to town? “Oh,” says she, "I can’t be both­ ered!” She simply won’t realize that piling up pennies is worth while. She’s a fairly good housekeeper; that is, she serves appetizing meals when she can order exactly what she wants. I don’t know how she could manage when instead of buy­ ing a tin of prepared spaghetti, for example, she had to make her own. It never occurred to her that the money she had budgeted for raisins or mushrooms or fruit juice or something unavailable might be popped right into the Stamp box. I'm afraid that it didn’t occur to her to buy one package of cigarettes less each week and go to a movie less often. She, like too many of us wants to eat her cake and have it too. Perhaps she, like many of us, can't imagine that twenty-five cents will have any appreciable effect upon the progress of- the war. A ’Twenty-five cents might buy just enough ammunition to save a sol­ dier’s life. Try to imagine a boy holding on to his machine gun while a crowd of Germans are attacking. He has courage plus, and he shoots i well until—“I’m a goner,” he mut-j ters. "There’s no more ammunition.” | A War Savings Certificate might buy just the grenade that meant life instead of death to one of our boys. It’s difficult to see your money in these terms. You know only that it passes over a counter and you get a piece of paper in return. But you’re getting so much more than that! Listen to the story of the Devil’s Pail, those who feel that twenty-five cents is of little use. A certain girl made a compacts with the Devil. He promised to free her lover if she could fill a pail with water carried a spoonful at a time from the distant river, in the space of one night. The girl despaired. The task was impossible. But the villagers offered to help, with the result that by dawn the pail was overflowing. One spoonful of water would not have been very useful, but one multi­ plied by hundreds . . . See?

Many of them arc so incontrovertibly true that they have become mere platitudes to be re­ peated without much thought.

If so, we would do well to conjure them deeply and jno^ 'to re­ peat them glibly and parrot-wise. No greater truth was ever uttered than Plato’s, “From the love of the beautiful has sprung every good in heaven and earth.” For if one thinks of it, how is it possible to dispute it? He saw it in his day and knew that in as much as a man was aware of beauty of any sort, he was in that degree worshipping it and the Creator of it He knew beauty in goodness and truth and all virtue; he revelled in it in nature, in the perfect fitness of things there. He gave thought to matters concerning the people and the philosophy of his time and knew that beauty^ dwelt in the mind, able to follow an idea to its logical conclusion, and express it in words understood perfectly by those less endowed. He saw It in the art of those days, in the writing, in the theatre, in the idealized figures wrought in bronze and stone by un­ surpassed artists, in the public buildings, still an inspiration to modem architects, And he knew that in as much as any num saw and admired one or another of these beauties, in such degree was he a good man, a man inspired by the inspiration of another. He had been given an ideal and having his eye fixed on that ideal, he must of necessity walk towards it, failing perhaps, and probably, ever to reach it, but always aware in his soul of its existence. Tliis was truth as Plato saw it. and in truth there is , beauty, in beauty, truth.

An interesting talk on the Im­ perial Order of the Daughters of the Empire Badge was given by Mrs. W. J. Tune. A highlight of the meeting was a talk by Flying Officer Howard Yule who served twenty-two months over­ seas and who is now instructing at the Mahon Airport. He spoke chief­ ly about the Service Clubs in Eng­ land, Scotland, Cairo and Malta. Mrs. Roy Start expressed the thanks of the chapter to F. O.

With this view in mind the Hi-Y clubs were formed.

CANADIAN NURSES MUST REGISTER A nation-wide survey to determine the nurse-power in Canada, where it is, what it is, and the best use that can be made of it for the dur­ ation of the war, is being made under the auspices of the Canadian Medical Procurement and Assign­ ment Board, it was announced re­ cently. The Canadian Nurses Association, as one of the groups primarily con­ cerned with the health of the nation, is taking an active part and is lend­ ing every posable assistance in the survey which .will extend into every province and cover all health fields. At the same time National Select­ ive Service has announced that a registration of all graduate nurses, active and inactive, married and single, will be carried out on March 17, 18 and 19. The findings of the survey yill be correlated with the findings of the registration to be conducted by National Selective .Service, Since the outbreak of the war, in­ vestigations and studies have been carried out on a more limited scale. The present survey is a much more comprehensive one. It has been des­ cribed by the Minister of National Defence as: “a project of the ut­ most importance in the prosecution of the war." The analysis of the findings of the survey wil undoubtedly assist in sol­ ving some of the problems that are experienced naw in all fields in which nurses are employed. It wil) also make possible the formulation of more comprehensive plans to meet both the military and civilian needs and to ensure ah adequate supply of nurses to meet emer­ gencies. The latest figures made available show that there are approximately 22,000 registered nurses in Canada, and a total of 11,400 nurses in training.

Gordon Henry was inducted Dm- trict Governor and Ellis Hall, of the London Club, was inducted as Reg­ ional Director. Charles C. Johnson presented tho dignified induction ceremony. Ellis Hall, of the London club, drew the attention of all to the fine atendance record of Art Angood, who has not missed a meeting since the inception of the club four years ago. xThe speaker of the evening was Mr. Fred G. McAllister, interna­ tional president of Kiwanis Interna­ tional. He discussed the four free­ doms for which we are fighting, namely, freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want and freedom from fear. Two views of life exist today. Hitler’s ideas are prevailing on most of the European continent today and he would have them dominate the whole world. It is our duty to bridge together men of different classifications, then the chasms between citizen and citizen, community and community, country and country, and continent and con­ tinent, will be bridged as we weave the fabric of a Christian civilization. “We must now plan and prepare for the after-the-war period, to make a new world by building a bridge from the best of the past to the best of the future. Men can and do bridge the unbridgeable," the speaker said. The remainder of th evening was enjoyed in bowling at the London Life alleys, where the local teams carried off all the honours. treal, Quebec, Saint John, Truro,and Charlottetown. Experiencedmen have been assigned to these re­gional offices to appraise the equip­ ment needs of the farmers in tfaeir respective districts, with a view to obtaining the best possible distribu­ tion of the limited supplies of new machines available. Two Ways To Raise More Young Pigs Raise more pigs by stopping los­ ses urges the Agricultural Supplies Board. Many pigs can be added to this year’s much needed supply if farmers will do two things: Protect young pigs ■from anaemia and from crushing. Anaemia can be prevented by feeding iron. Without iron, many of the best pigs are lost and others weakened and thus more subject to attack by disease and parasites. Iron can be fed by placing on the tongue of each pig the amount of reduced iron sulphate (copperas) which can be easily held (not heaped) on a ten- cent piece. Iron feeding should be started a day or two after birth and should be fed once a week for three to four weeks. Crushing can be prevented by a guard rail in the farrowing pen. The guard rail may be made o£i poles, scantling (2” x 4”), or pipeh It should be placed eight inchew from the floor and eight inches from the sides of the pen, and must be strongly braced. A pig saved is a pig gained and will help to meet the British require­ ment for 675,000,000 pounds of bacon in 1943 and the increasing domestic demands. It is estimated that there is a steady market for 8,000,000 hogs this year, preferably of a weight 200 to 210 pounds. Tobacco Growers To Get Fertilizers According to information from G. S. Peart, administrator of fertilizers and pesticides, made public by W. Harold McPhillips. prices and supply representative of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board, tobacco growers in Norfolk, Oxford, Elgin, Brant and adjacent counties are limited to 80 per cent of their 1942 fertilizer sup­ plies. Mr. McPhillips said that any­ one who didn’t buy fertilizer in 1942 would have to get a permit from the administrator, Mr. Peart.

I.O.D.E.-Chapter Sponsors First Annual Dance A most successful and enjoyable dance was held at the Armouries on Friday evening, March 5th, at which the members of the Christina Ar­ mour McNaughton Chapter, I.O.D. E., were hostesses to their many guests from Ingersoll, Tilisonburg, Brantford, Wopdstock and London. Mrs. James Baxter, the Honorary Regent of the chapter, received with Mary Beck, Regent, Mrs. Allin Dea- edn and Edith Wilson, Vice-Regents. The rooms were gayly deeorated in red, white and blue. The flags from the three I.O.D.E. chapters of the town stood on guard beside, the orchestra. Dancing and (bridge were avail­ able, and the guests were completely at ease to enjoy both. The music, with which all were delighted, was furnished by Ted Pudney’s Orches­ tra from London. War Savings Stamps, nosegays of violets and cigarettes were the bridge and lucky spot dance prizes respectively. Lunch was served very informally, and the guests were free to leisurely partake of the delicious refreshments. A large part of the success of the affair is due to the convener, Mrs. Lefc.'oy Haycock and her committee, Margaret Elliott, Florence MacPhee and Mary Wild. Patrons and patronesses of the evening were the honourary mem­ bers of the chapter and their hus­ bands: Mr. and Mrs. James Baxter, Mr. and Mn. T.-N*. Dunn, Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Vaale and Mr. and Mn.

Left to mourn his passing are his widow, formerly Irene Taylor of Beachville; one daughter-, Mrs. Vic­ tor Cornell, ([Margaret), Detroit, and two grandchildren. The funeral was held on Tuesday afternoon from his late residence, where service was held at 2.3* o’clock. The death occurred at the Wood- stock General Hospital on Saturday of Harry H. Sutherland of Beach­ ville, a former esteemed resident ofIngersoll. Mr. Sutherland who was in his 57th year, had been ill only a short time. A son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Sutherland, Harry Suther­ land was born in Ingersoll. For many years he operated a repair garage on Thames street where the Ingersoll Auto Electric is now situ­ ated. Mr. Sutherland possessed a very fine singing voice and took a prominent part in the choir of St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church, as well as in other musical organizations.!In 1933 he moved to Detroit where* he operated the Cloverdale Top and Body Co., automobile repairs. In that city too, he carried on his mus­ ical interests and was a member of a well-known quartette. Three years ago, Mr. and Mrs. Sutherland returned to Canada and have been living in Beachville since that time.

Or perhaps you are one of the lucky ones who just mangged-to scrape through? In either case, you will want to be prepared for next winter when greater hardships loom unless you take immediate action. The shortage already has affected many communities .. . total stocks of dry wood are nearly exhausted ... In some places the small supply of green wood cut for next winter is being used now to meet the present emergency. Throughout most of Canada, fuel-wood is obtained not far from where it is consumed. Its production and distribution are the business of local citizens. The Dominion Government recognizes that the wood-fuel shortage is so serious that even with the full co-operation of everyone in affected com­ munities an adequate supply is not assured. Accordingly, it has been decided to stimulate the output of wood-fuel by assisting those normally engaged in its production and distribution. To this end, the following measures will be adopted: 1 A subsidy of $1.00 per cord will be paid to dealers on all commercial fuel-wood contracted for and cut on or before June 30, 1943, and held to thalers* account on that data. 2 The Cool Controller has been authorized to arrange in ills discretion for the payment of such portion of die transportation _ costs a*, he considers proper, ia respect of fuel-wood, particul­ arly in cases where dealers, to procure supplies, find it necessary to contract for fuel-wood at locations outside the arc* from . which ihey aurmallK-derive.th«6: supplies. In. order, to obtain. - any such reimbursement, dealers must obtain a permit from the Coal Controller pefore contracting for such supplies. 3 The Coal Controller .will repurchase from dealers at dealer's cost all commercial grades of fuel-wood on which a subsidy of $1 per cord has bfen paid and which are still in dealers* hands as at May 31, Ip44i 4 Assistance will be given in providing priorities for necessary equipment. 5 Farmers now on die farm, and who leave the farm temporarily in response to this appeal to engage in fuel-wood cutting, will be deemed by National Selective Service to be carrying out their regular occupation as farmers and will be given all the rights of deferment of military service* which such an occupa­ tion now carries. Such temporary absence should not, however, interfere with agricultural production. Municipal councils, farmers, fuel dealers, individual cHizons, service clubs, and all other groups In communities where wood-fuel is burned, are urged to begin al once a rapid survey of their local situation, and to toko immo- diate action to relieve the shortage. THE DEPARTMENT OF MUNITIONS AND SUPPLY Honourable C. 0. Have, Mfabtor JSiar!, Page 8 THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MARCH 11, 1943OTTAWAWEEK BY WEEK — By Dean Wil*on —- MONEY—AND MORE MONEY Now that the people of Canada have been told about their unpre­ cedented needs from a financial or budgetary angle for 1943-1944, money seems to be the main topic of conversation along Parliament Hill. Indeed, ever since the Hon. J. L. Daley, Minister of Finance, in­ troduced the War Appropriation Bill for 1943-1944, asking for the staggering sum of 33,890,000,000, there has been an impression in the capital that this bill will be debat­ ed and occupy the time of the House of Commons for quite a long time, particularly when it is remembered that last year’s bill was argued from March to June and this year the leader of the Official Opposition, Gordon Graydon, has asked for a breakdown of all the items which will involve an unbelievable amountof work and time as well as chances i for dispute. Moreover, though Can- ' ada's record-breaking war costs are increasing in tune with the quicker tempo of the struggle or the greater activities which are to follow, yet the Government’s financial needs in the coming year for certain non-war expenditures are estimated to be higher. As a matter of fact, Hon. J. L. Dsley has given to the House of Commons new estimates for the fiscal year 1943-1944, starting Apnl 1, which call for expenditures of 3610380,000 as against 3565,563,- 000 for this year. This indicates an increase of $45,317,000 in non-war expenditures for Canada in the next year over that of the previous year, with these non-war estimates show­ ing a rise in certain Departments or functions of the Government in Ottawa including the Civil Service Commission, Governor-General and Lieutenant-Governor’s Privy Council Office, Prime Minister’s Office, Roy­al Canadian (Mounted Police, Post Office, Finance, Pensions and Health, National War Services, Ex Health, National War Services, Ex­ 'Haw, he’s well again and doing a war job “My HUSBAND’S had a nervouf breakdown' — just worry.

NEW PLATFORM ERA Once again the Leader of the Progressive Conservative party in Parliament, Gordon Graydon, has come forth with the claim that cer­ tain policies of the Government were part of this party’s platform in the Winnipeg convention. On this occasion, he congratulated the Prime Minister on an alleged or supposed change of heart regarding labor pol­ icies and he reminded him that they were part of his party’s platform. When Premier King replied that he was considerably flattered at the ex­ tent to which the Winnipeg conven- iton had evidently drawn upon a book which he wrote some years ago, Hon. R. B. Hanson retorted: “It took you twenty-five years to put them into effect" But Premier King came back with the remark that “they have 'been going into effect, bit by bit" IMPORTANT QUESTION A question which has often been asked in whispers lately along Par­ liament Hill has been raised openly in Canada's Pariament. “Why is it that Lieut.-General McNaughton, Commander of the Canadian armed forces overseas, has not yet been promoted to the rank of a full gen­ eral?" demanded a member in the House of Commons. In reply, Hon. J. L. Ralston, Minister of National Defence, declared: “That involves a matter of policy regarding which the announcement will be made when a decision has been reached in respect to such a policy.” FROM AN OBSERVER’S NOTEBOOK Though money matters and other things are stressed in the headlines, yet, as part of the current cam­ paign which is being waged on many fronts to demonstrate that Canada's Parliament is not carrying on itf business with conspicuous speed in this session, there is much gossip in the capital as well os heavy publicity elsewhere regarding the episode in which the former (Minister of the King Cabinet, Hon. <P. J. A Cardin,created a sensation in Parliament and in the lobbies with his amazing challenge or suggestion to the Gov­ ernment for “withholding" opera­ tion of tile National Resources Mob­ ilization Act until a complete in­ vestigation has been made by a committee of the House of Commons. In other words, though this suggest­ ion or challenge in Parliament was thrown out by a one-sided vote of 195-15 and there was never any doubt that this would be the result, yet this move by the former Minis­ ter of Public Works from Quebec has been accompanied by such sen­ sational stories in the nation’s capi­ tal as that this action was a great surprise,- a source of tremendous embarrassment, a threat of an early dissolution, a hint of a general election soon, the start of serious defections in the ranks of the parly in power a^ a whole organization, and the complete break up of the traditionally strong Liberal party system in the Province of Quebec. It is true that well informed circles backstage along Parliament Hill did not look upon this event as just as little verbal scuffle in Par­ liament between Premier King and his former fellow Cabinet Minister, Hon. P. J. A. Cardin, who resigned from the Government last May on account of his opposition to con­ scription for overseas. Actually, it caused Premier King to deliver his most vigorous, most effective speech in a decade, and between the lines of his words there were strong hints of a showdown within the ranks of his own political party, with the sug­ gestion that there would bq.no wel­ come sign in this session for those elements amongst his supporters who planned to build a structure of isolation or to preach the isolation­ ist policy in Canada’s Parliament. “If we are going to have this ses­ sion opened with an effort to divide this country again to destroy the unity we now have,” declared Prem­ ier King to an intensely interested House of Commons, “the sooner the Government of this country knows it the better." At another point in his frank and historic declaration, he said with the obvious intention of directing his remarks to his own fol­ lowers: "And 1 want to say. to my honourable friends here that I look to them to show where they stand in their support of me. If we are 1 going to have a multitude of leaders in this country I want to know whether I have the support that will commend itself to the people of all Canada or whether I am among the number that cannot count their own following'.’’ This time Premier King did not seem to emit the soft answer which tumeth away the wroth. He spoke with obvious deep emotion, he point­ ed his finger st the-little isolationist blocs in Parliament to emphasize certain words; he showed his feel­ ings at one time when he turned suddenly right around as if to ad­ dress in particular his own follow­ ers; he looked down sharply again and again upon Hon. iP. J. A. Cardin who was sitting dose by on his left with the former Minister keeping his eyes down on his desk as if to avoid frequently, seeing the leader’s ex­ pressions as he charged the isola­ tionists with "personal ambitions and political aims” or “that nothing more unpatriotic could . possibly be expressed.” However, in face of all these early Sessional developments or stor­ ies, yet it is indicated in well-inform­ ed circles backstage along Parliament Hill that these events n&y turn out to be in time just part of the under­ hand, fastidious tendency of criti­ cal judgment of Premier King^which in fact, has become quite a favour­ ite sport since the start of tins war with this leader’s most difficult tasks in this war being often,,too often, made no easier by the inac­ curate interpretation of his motives or even of the policies themselves. Then again, it must be born in mind that a political friendship such as that of-Premier King and Hon. P. J. A. Cardin was not like that of Damon and IPythias. Even the course of true love never did run smooth so that differences of opinion can arise here and there. It has been the same experience In political life, though these may have produced no serious effects when the division bellrang for a slowdown. In fact, the King-Cardin episode has proven conclusively that Premier King’t- desperate effort to ktep-his people fully united in their war undertak­ ing has caused him to be regarded wjth profound affection by the rank and file of his own party so that amongst his own followers his pres­ tige is greater to-day than at the start of this war. Though Hon. Car­ din made a vigorous and all-out at­ tack to test Ms political strength in Parliament, yet it turned out to bo a complete failure, with his supreme effort being able to muster only a meagre ten Liberals and five south- ^SNAPSHOT GUILD Akic nirT IID i: A AA/f=FI/ Pictures from home mean a lot to men and women In Service.

And if you’re interested inother subjects, just look at the family itself. There's no end to thepossible pictures there. They range from pictures of Mother and Dad working around the house, as in ourillustration, to pictures of Sis in her new evening gown, or Uncle Henrywhen he comes visiting. Any one of those subjects would be sure tobring a big smile when he gets thesnapshot. Furthermore, you don’t have to bethe world’s best photographer to make the kind of snapshots the boyslike. What they actually are looking tor are the pictures you can makewith the old family camera. And they don’t want big enlargements—ordinary prints will be best. So get the “one a week” picture habit now. Your Service Man orWoman will appreciate it, and you’ll be using your camera to help keepmorale high.

THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MARCH 11, 1943‘ Home Town” Day in ServicesAs Weekly Papers Arrive “Home Town” day at army Train­ing Campa across Canadq i* Fri­ day—when the bulk of weeklypapers are passed out at noon mailparades to eager-eyed lads in uni­ form. A quick glance over the frontpage and then at the local columnis merely a foretaste of pleasure to be had that evening. Then it willremain the unswerving object of interest for an hour or two on bunk,in barracks or in a comfortable spot in some Auxiliary Service hut.It is then that the weary editor,short of sleep because of his struggle to keep community happen­ings as fully recorded as of old in spite of labor shortages shouldhave some magic means of looking over the shoulder of just one of hisArmy readers. His fatigue wouldmelt Ad vanish in the happy revel­ ation of the full warmth of apprec­ iation shown toward his endeavorwhich service men agree is a top­ ranker among vital morale build­ing agents. It also would be nice to havethere Mrs. Jones who dropped her washing long enough Monday totelephone the village newspaper that her youngest boy, Johnny, hadjust attained the rank of Corporal in his new field of duty abroad.She would see how mention of hisname and military advancement stillfurther inspired the will-to-be-thereof widely separated comrades inarms. Favorite week-end congregating spots in cities are reading cornersof Y-M.C.A., Legion, Knights ofColumbus, or Salvation Army es­ tablishments where weekly papersfrom everyone's hometown -arefound. In them every word dispellsshadows of loneliness, and forms an intimate and friendly link stretchingback from the now phase of duty tothings so close to the heart. Andprominence in thought of these things so frequently do much to keepfellows on wholesome paths duringIdle momenta in strange environ­ments. (Regular appearance of home-townsheets comes as the greatest boonto the fellows whose folks andfriends have been a bit on the care­ less aide in writing. Or, perhaps, the last letter fromhome neglected to mention thatAunt Jenny was able ( to pull through the pneumonia attackagain this winter. But someone hadbeen kind enough to remind the editor, and he didn’t forget."She isn't a real aunt of mine,you see, but rather one of thosesouls who make themselves an aunt to everyone,” this reader explainedto a newly-found pal in the adjoin­ing bunk. “You should see the swellsocks she knits for lads from home.It’s surely nice to kpow she’s backon her feet again.“It kind of nufkes you realize all the things we have to fight for whenyou think about what these ladiesare doing,” the other added by wayof agreement. Our paper just mentioned today about a womannext door drumming up a new groupto send razor blades to army chape. She’s doing so much Red* Cross andSunday School work now, you’dwonder how she w’ould , find timefor anything else.” “Take a look^at this while I stokeup the stove," invited a third ladon the upper bunk ns he extendedthat week’s cony of what he con­ sidered Ontario's brightest journal..“We’ve got a hum-dinger of a min­ister in our church at home who really stirs up a guy’s ambition,’’he explained. “Each week our paperprints something like this about hissermon the Sunday before. It's al­ most like being at church back homefor a few minutes reading it.” “This is my nine-year-old ladhere,” still another announced proudly, pointing to a name at thetop of a school report list. “Lastweek he had his name on the front page for being first in a Saturdaymorning salvage drive,” he boasted.“And here in this Scout column isthe name of a next-door youngsterwhose dad just reached Englandlast month. I’ll stick this clippingin a letter I'm sending him today.Here are some letters printed from other soldiers all over that I’m goingto stick in the same envelope. Justbefore he left we were saying we’d never seem too far from the homefolks as long as we could see ourpaper or things clipped from it,” Weekly references to recreational,entertainment, and athletic eventsin district military camps achievesurprisingly broad interest. Veryoften those from far-removed cen­ tres now have pals of former daysin training at the town whose news­paper they have just been shownfor the first time.. Thus, capableitaining camp contributors to col­umns in neighborhood weeklies mayhave their items scanned at incred­ ible distances by eyes seeking afamiliar name.Lively discussion groups, whichthrive on the luxury of the scoresof new friends which army lifebrings together, find fuel for newthought in weekly columns. Reference in an editorial to thenoble work being done by a clubof northern ten-year-old lads help­ing with chores of (mothers whose own sons are -in active servicequickly became a topic of generalconversation. It precipitated a two-hour talk around a hut stove in which ideas were exthanged aboutwhat could be done to develop morewholesome citizenship.Reports of municipal discussions and of how home utilities are main­tained in the face of restricted bud­gets and help shortages are followed closely.References to transportationproblems and consequent introduct­ ion of ingenious ideas to conservematerials desperately needed in pro­duction of war munitions also be­come the themes of interesting bunk-side conferences. Difficultiesin obtaining fuel, one of the un­pleasant sides of home life whichmany personal letters omit, make many a soldier a bit more carefulin easing the consumption of coalin banking up the hot stove for the nightSo the weekly editor, who neverforgets, is one of the most faithfulcorrespondents from back home— the ever-active liaison between sol­diers of freedom in the field and onthe home front. A Negro Baptist was exhorting:“Now breddern and sistem, comeup to do altar and have yo’ sins washed away.” All came up but oneman.“Why, Brudder Jones, don’t yo’ want yo’ sms washed away?”“I done had -----jrJ away!" “Where”’’Over at deroad.”“Ah, Brudderben washed;cleaned.” my sins washed church across de . Jones , yo' ain'tyo’ jes becq dry tiers.
