Only Newspaper PpMi.h.4 in I n ^r w l l INGERSOLL ONTARIO, THURSDAY, SEPT. 30, 1943 Yearly -■ Canada, 11 JO ■ U.S.A, (2,00RUSSELL I. KELLY, HP.ADDRESSEDGAIHERING On Friday evening. Mr. Russell T. Kelly, M.P., of Hamilton, addressed a gathering of workers of the local blood donors clinic. The meeting was held at the St. Charles Coffee Shop and was sponsored by the Y’s Men’s Club, who are endeavoring to maintain a supply of donors for this clinic. President Gordon Pittock conduct­ ed the business. A clarinet solo, “Kiss Me Again”, was rendered by Ron Bigham. Rev. R. B. Cumming led the sing song in a capable man­ ner. Ross Bigham accompanied at the piano for selections. Mr. Kelly, who is chairman of the publicity committee of the On­ tario Red Cross Blood Donor Clinics, gave an interesting talk on the his­ tory of the clinics, the work that is being done and the need for more blood donors. The first clinic was opened at Tor­ onto three years ago. At first the establishment of other clinics did not take place very rapidly, but there are now 28 permanent clinics and 7 mobile units operating in On­ tario. Where 100 donors are received each week a permanent clinic is formed. Mr. Kelly considered the most important thing was that the lives of wounded servicemen or bombed civilians could be sav^d by the use of the blood scrums administered in transfusions. The most pleasure and satisfaction could be derived from talking to any one of these whose life had been saved by this means and to hear them express their ap­ preciation. The speaker requested everyone to stand before a mirror and ask -one­ self, “How much personal sacrifice have 1 gone through with the lust four years?” He fell it would be small in comparison with the sacri­ fices and self denials of our ^oldiers and the lot of the people of Great Britain. This blood donor service afforded everyone an opportunity to be of servirf? The need for more donors is ur­ gent at the present time as we are behind in our quota and with the establishing of another front in Eur­ ope, the need will be even greater. Mr. Kelly said: “Peopkdin this coun­ try are not as war-conscious as we should be.” If each one realized his responsibility there would be a lot more accomplished,” he continued. “Could there be any greater joy than to have . some Ingersoll man come homeland say the blood of some one of these .clinics saved my life.” ' Mr. Kelly praised the work that has been done iby this clinic, saying, “No word could be written or said which could express the indebtedness to the medical men, nurses and others who •offer their sendees in the clinics.” Ho also thanked the club for their support and said he would appreciate the continued co-opera­ tion of all in connection with the blood donor clinics. Dr. Jack Rowsom introduced Mr. Kelly to the gathering and Y’sman Frank Cragg expressed their appre­ ciation.

The first meeting of the Junior Committee of the Catholic Women’s League was held at the home of the convener, Miss Helen Foster, on Thursday night, with a pleasing at­ tendance. The meeting opened with prayer. Miss Dorothy Duffy read the minutes of a preliminary meeting held two weeks ago, at which Mrs. P. M. Dewan was hostess. Mrs. John Williams, president of the C.W.L., was present to help outline the work for this new committee which is to be Red Cross work and war work in general for the duration.

Thrilled With WorkIn Women’* Divisionof the R.C.A.F.The following are excerpt* froma letter to the Staff of one of the“Labs” in Victoria Hospital, LondonOnt. It wm writterf by a London girlwho recently joined the Women’*Division of tho RjC'.A.F., through the London Recruiting Centre. This letter, according to R.C.A.F. Offic­ ials, should prove most interesting to those contemplating enlisting in this important branch of the Ser­ vice. It very clearly gives an idea of the fascinating experiences many of these girls encounter; moreover the loyalty and devotion for the Women’s Division is typical. (A few extracts of a purely personal nature have been deleted from this letter— otherwise it is published here ver­ batim.) Hello Gang: I am feeling quite benevolent to­ day hence, this letter. I learned I have been recommended for promo­ tion so for the time being I am ig­ noring the fact that I have not heard from you for some time. I am getting along like a house on fire with my work. It is simply perfect. I have ordered equipment for blood chemistry so it should be here soon and then I will feel more at home. I had quite an experience the other day. The M. O. (Medical Officer), came in and asked me to. make 50 blood agar plates for some cultures he wants. You can imagine how much I knew about it, but I got out a text book and went to work. In the first place, I had never taken a venus blood. The recipe called for some 50 c.c. of .blood so I found a likely looking victim and went to work. All I could find was a 75 c.c. syringe and it looked like something a horse doctor would use. I put the tourniquet on and found to my hor­ ror that he had huge rubbery veins that rolled all over. 1 managed to tie one in a knot (mentally of course) and thenXried to stick the needle in it. The needle was about as big around as a fountain pen, but after exerting considerable force, I managed to get it in and, believe it or not, 1 struck blood right off the bat. It took me all day to make the darn stuff and pour the plates. I made the culture and when the M. O. looked at it he said it was one of the best plates he had ever seen. He interned in bacteriology at Royal Vic too! I always knew I was in the wrong department. Seriously though, kids, I really am getting some wonderful experiences. If I ever have to look for a job in civilian life, at least I will have something to back me up. Of course, you know by now what I think of P.E.I. Phooey. However it does have its points, lots of lob­ sters and nice beaches. I quite often buy a lobster in town and eat it in bed. You just crack open the shell and eat everything soft. They weigh about a pound each and cost 40c. Sa}’ Lillian, the girl who sleeps next to me is a member of your sor­ ority. She is awfully nice. All the girls around me are grand and we have a lot of fun. I can never get over the fact of ho w •like college the whole thing is. After what I have seen, if I ever hear anyone say one detrimental word about the .W.D.’s, God help them. I have never seen a group of girls who are as careful of their morals or deportment in gen­ eral as these girls are. All I hope is that when the war is over I will be kept on the permanent force. Noth­ ing I could say speaks louder than that fact, Do write soon because I am think­ ing of you constantly and I am simply starving for gossip, etc. Re­ member me to everybody and lots of love to all.” The young lady who wrote this letter had been, for several years, a Laborator}' Assistant at Victoria Hospital. R.C.A.F. Officials claimshe speaks most eloquently for the type of girt joining the Women’s Division. The public will realize, from this, the feelings of these pat­ riotic young women. Tho remark­ able entusiasm they show is out­ standing and speaks volumes for the high calibre and morals of the Wo­ men’s Division of the R.C.A.F. There are openings at present fot Laboratory Assistants and many equally fascinating trades. Young women who have the necessary ex­ perience will be enlisted directly in thetrj trade and will receive extra trades pay. Due to a recent change in policy trades pay in the Women's Division is now the same as for airmen. Ration Coupon Due Dates Ration coupons now valid include: Sugar coupons, numbers one to 16.

The magistrate eyed the prisoner sternly. “You maintain that you threw your wife out of the second-story window through forgetfulnessU* ha stated “That’s ‘right", Your Honour,” re­ turned the prisoner. “We used to live on the ground floor, and I forgot we'd moved up.” Canadians Are Proud of Growing Navy The other day ‘‘maritime history was made” as one newspaper put it when in shipyards from coast to coast no less than one dozen ships were launched, all in one day. Ships launched included H.M.C.S. “MICMAC”, Tribal Class destroyer, frigates, minesweepers, corvettes, patrol vessels and tugs, cargo ships. About the same time the Hon.Angus L. Macdonald, Minister of I Defence, Naval Services, announced that his Department was negotiating! with Britain for the acquisition of j two cruisers and is even considering! aircraft carriers too. It was announced that the Royal Canadian Navy personnel totals 70,000, all ranks, including 3,700 women. At home in England Prime Minis­ ter Churchill stated that there had been no sinkings in the North Atlan­ tic (where convoying operations are handled by Canadian warships) in the past FOUR MONTHS. w About 1,000 Canadian naval rat­ ings are to be used in Commando landings in addition to the five hun­ dred on such craft now, some of whom took part in the taking *of Sicily. All these things that reduced to Canada’s naval strength and prowess —and equally inspiring facts can be found about the growth of her mer­ chant fleet—make one to think of the men who man the naval vessels and the men who work the cargo ships.

The workmen certainly endured many hazardous[and hard experiences before theI road was completed. “We Sail at| Midnight," was a very fine film, de- I picting the many detailed arrange­ ments necessary for the successfulconvoying of goods overseas, underpresent conditions, of which thq en­ emy submarine is but one. The thirdfilm was “Community Singing,"when the audience joined with irbunch of cowboys gathered aroundthe camp fire, in singing a numberof their favourite songs accompanied by their guitars. The last picture,“Freedom of Aberfeldy,’’ showed thereal spirit of hospitality of the people in this small town in thehighlands of Scotland, shown to Can­ adian, American and Australianboys in the various branches of theservice, when they land on the otherside.

The cost of living in this country has been going up rather sharply in cer­ tain directions in face of the fact that so far the increase along the whole line has been only 18.03 per cent, with one illustration of the rapid rise in certain directions being the report that since the start of this war food had risen no less than 34 per cent. In fact, the gradual in­ crease in the cost of living in World War II has been steady and contin­ uous, though strenuous efforts have been made by the authorities in or­ der to keep it down as much as poss­ ible, rising over seven points when 1940 ended, over fourteen points at the close of 1941, and about seven­ teen points at the end of 1942 invol­ ving right now an increase of 18.03 per cent as compared with the figure at the beginning of this war. CHANGE OF CONDITIONS While it must be admitted that it has been true that the farm income in Canada derived from the market­ ing of products had raised the farm purchasing power greatly this year when some of the benefits of the un­ usual 1942 crops were returned in money, reaching its highest peak since 1929 at June 30, 1943, yet it must be pointed out at this time ' that this had been attributed mainly to the unusual demands for farm products on account of the war con­ ditions and the unusual supplies ob­ tained by the great work of the BARRISTERS PATERSON, START and MAR-SHALL, Barristers ind Solicitors.

However, the same unusually good crop con­ ditions of 1942 have not existed in 1943 in various sections in Canada and one report has estimated that the total crops throughout this nation in 1943 may even be only about two-thirds of the 1942 yield so that farm purchasing power in Canada, it is expected in some quar­ ters, may suffer ill-effect# to some extent in the near' future. RISING REVENUE One of the busiest branches of the public service on the home front in Canada is the Department of Nat­ ional Revenue and the reasons for these great wartime activities can be found between the lines in the announcements of the Minister of the Department, Hon. Colin Gibson, with the latest announcement show­ ing that from the start of this fiscal year, that is April 1, 1943, until the end of August, 1943, the revenues obtained from customs, excise and income tax reached the huge total of no less than $1,036,031,600 or a net increase of no less than $159,- 069,927 since during the same per­ iod of last year this total had been $876,961,673. POPULAR POLICY The great importance with which the Government now regards the task of building better bodies for all Canadians is reflected in the moves contemplated in the act to create the council for the purposes of promoting national fitness. This act grew out of the recommendation originally made by the social se­ curity committee and it followed along the principles of some other countries which have had physical fitness ns a national aim for a long time. When the Minister of Pensions and National Health, Hon. Ian Mac­ kenzie, had explained this act, he stated that such a council will be set up with all provinces represen­ ted on this body and a tenth man will be an appointee of the Federal Government. Though the headquar­ ters will be in Ottawa, yet the act­ ual carrying out of this ambitious plan will be by the provinces, with the exact amount which each prov­ ince will get being a sum which will bear the same proportion to the sum of §225,000 as the population of such province at the last decennial census bears to the population of Canada as a whole. It is considered in Ottawa to be an important move in an effort to improve the health of the people of Canada. LIABLE FOR TAXES InAanswer to complaints which had been made that Canada’s orig­ inal inhabitants, the Indians should not be subject to income tax, it has been stated in Ottawa that an In­ dian was not liable to income tax unless he entered a profession such as a white man might do. Hence, working outside of the reserve, he or she would be liable to the same taxes which others pay.— (Reproduc­ tion Prohibited.)

All realize that the war may bring surprises—but the tide is turning in our favour. Chemists and engineers, producing things needed for war, are making discoveries which will mean comforts and con­ veniences for all of us when peace comes. New methods of making things, new processes, new materials, now being filed away in blue prints and formulae, will bring us many new and useful articles. Many things not available now will be replaced by better models and designs. You may have plans for a new hdfhe, remodelling your present horns? new home furnishings. If you are you will need new and improV ment and machinery. Now, while you are thinking and plan­ ning, you can do something to insure that your plans can,/be carried out.

WHAT IS A VICTORY BOND? A VICTORY BOND is the promise of the Dominion of Canada to repay in cash the face value of the Bond on the date of maturity with half-yearly interest until that time. A Victory Bond is the safest investment in Canada backedby the entire resources of the Dominion. Canada has been issuing bonds for 75 years, and has never failed to pay every dollar of prinajxd and interest when due.

Because of the wide range of container sizes and the variationin buying habits across the country it was necessary to put the system into opera­ tion and then make adjustments on the basis of experience. Now that preserves rationing has been in effect for several weeks, it is possible to made some increases in coupon values. The new schedule is announced below and is effective September 30th. The new doubled ration allowances for molasses, extracted and comb honey willenable consumers in areas where consumption of then* products Is heavy, to buy more and still leave enough for districts where the total demand is light. The increased ration allowances for cpm, cane and blinded table syrups and maplesyrup are adjusted to bring coupon values more cfosely in*o line with the great variety of container sizes now in Use. * ONE "D” COUPON IS GOOD FOR TMo Jams, Jellies, Mamalades, Maple Batter, Apple Batter or Honey Batter - - - 6 FLUID 0Z.

Food may become the cause of illness when kept at the temperature of an ordinary kitchen for five hours. This is not what is com­ monly and erronously called pto­ maine poison but is due to harmful substances produced by bacteria. You cannot always tell whether the food is harmful by appearance or odor as there may be no apparent change. The toxic effects may be produced in cooked as well as fresh food and once formed no subsequent cooking will make the food safe to eat. Foods that are likely to spoil when adequate refrigeration is not available are meat, milk, eggs and products made with these Z foods, such as cottage cheese, cream] fillings for pies and cakes. You may avoid food poisoning by remembering and practising these few simple rules:' Store perishable foods at a tem­ perature of 40* F. Do not leave food in the kitchen for any length of time without re­ frigeration. Warm food or frozen food that has been defrosted should not be wrapped, in wax paper when put in the refrigerator. The paper holds tiie heat inside the food long enough for the bacteria to grow.

Speaking of the “widespread concern” over juvenile delinquency, the Premier said, “It will be our purpose to make sure that children of Ontario have a real understanding of discipline and re­ sponsibility.” The Ontario Premier added to his remarks, criticism of the “unsatis­ factory conditions in the Province in regard to liquor sale and express­ ed the hope that "before long pro­ posals may be placed before the Do­ minion Government which will result in a considerable improvement of the general situation.” Digest of Premier Drew’s Radio Address Of Interest to Women Slips that Fail to Stay Put If your slips persist in “riding up” and making you uncomfortable, it’s probably because they are of the wrong material or because they are not fitted to your body. To correct this choose slips in a slick fabric like rayon taffeta ot crepe. Avoid satins and knits as they cling to the body and tend to ride up. Also avoid bias-cut slips or slips with bias insets, and make certain your slip is long enough. If making the slip yourself, insure its lasting fit by making sure it is pre-shrunk. Before cutting the material, dip it in gentle suds that are safe for anything in water alone, dry thor­ oughly, and iron.Other things to look for when buying slips are firmly woven fab­ rics and strong, close evenly stitch­ ed seams, preferably pinked bound, or French. Some fabrics are made to appear sturdier than they are by the use of starchy filler which comes out in the wash and leaves the material looking sleazy. Its a good idea too, to try on a slip be­ fore buying. Its yolk should be comfortably loose with properly finished edges. Long slips should be adjusted at the hem rather than at the shoulders because, if a slip fils properly, lowering or raising shoul­ der straps will throw the garment out of line. With only five weeks in office, the George Drew Government gave an excellent account of its stewardship to the people of Ontario, in a prov­ ince-wide radio address delivered by the Premier on Friday last. Ontario’s first Agriculture Com­ mittee of Inquiry is now at work and similar government committees are being appointed to inquire into fuel, mining, labor, forestry and other problems, Premier George Drew announced. As a prelude to practical reme­ dies for agriculture in the Province, Premier Drew said the committee with Archibald Leitch of Guelph as chairman is “conducting an inquiry and will make recommendations from time to time on every phase of agriculture in this Province.” The committee would be requested to go beyond the ordinary details of actual farming and make recommen­ dations on farm education and other similar subjects. Premier Drew replied to critics who had said his Government would be limited in its efforts to give a strong administration “because we have not a clear majority.” “It has also been said that we must make compromises to obtain support" he said. “Let me remove any doubts on that score. We will govern the Province and introduce legislation just as we would have done if we possessed a large major­ ity. It will be for the members of the Legislature to decide whether they intend to support that legisla­ tion or not. We have ho thought of temporizing and we are quite pre­ pared to face the consequences of standing by what we said we would do.” At the first Cabinet meeting, he pointed out, that he had fulfilled his election promise to cancel timber contracts which disposed of vast Onions peeled this way never cause areas that had not been developed * tears anj neither does the onion od- in accordance with agreements.

WRITE FOR PRIZE LIST Perfume Bottle Salvage Everyone, at some time or an­ other, has had a perfume bottle, per­ haps one with an atomizer top, that she would like very much to use again. The seemirfg impossibility of removing the old odour completely, however, usually dissuades a woman from filling the bottle with new and different contents Here is a solution to the problem for those interested. First, swish a few teaspoons of vinegar around in the empty bottle. Then stand the bottle, neck down, in a pan of rich “grease-dissolving” suds to which a teaspoon of soda has been added. Boil the bottle in this manner for about twenty min­ utes, then, remove, let the water evaporate, and all ^trace of - the old perfume odour Will be completely gon. Wall Cleaner An effective and inexpensive cleaner for painted walls can be made as follows: To one gallon of boiling water, add about five cents worth of borax, a small box of handy ammonia and a cake of sunny yellow, all-pure ban soap cut into small pieces, Boif a few minltes while stirring all together and let­ ting the soap dissolve thoroughly. Stir occasionally while cooling and you will have quite a batch of jelly which can be kept for future use. For cleaning, dip up a small amount on a clean, damp cloth and wash a small spape at a time. Rub out with a. clean, damp cloth and dry. Emerson Moulton, .‘Wife (reading from paper)— “Here’s an old hen they’ve fcund with two hearta." Husband-—"Yeah!

WILFORD INGERSOLL A WEEKLY EDITOIt LOOKS AT O t ta w a far A* wwUy nrmpapw, of Ccnorfa •— By Jim Greenblat — This column, which goes out to far and hindermost reaches of Can­ ada, feels it cannot over-emphasize the appeal to the “small investor" to think of the contribution he or she is going to. or should, make to the forthcoming Fifth Victory Loan. Everywhere, in all the towns and villages—they tell me at headquar­ ters here—great preparations are being made by local committees to top local objectives. You know- the fellows—your banker, your baker, your merchant, your school teacher, your farm community leader, your ordinary guy working behind the counter, will be appealing to you to “Speed Victory.” The hundreds of releases which go through this" office from army, navy and airforce, telling in piecemeal of the epic deeds, the sacrifices of your boys over there impels me to keep this subject “hot” before you and to try and convey the idea of the tremen­ dous urgency of sending your spare dollars to strengthen muscles of our war effort. Our producers in Canada will be a fundamental of any post-war economics, national and interna­ tional. The coal miner, the farmer, the fisherman, the fruit grower, have a job ahead. This was pointed out in Ottawa in speeches before clubs made this week by a disting­ uished visitor, Willianj Mabanc, M.P., parliamentary secretary to the British Minister of Food,- Lord Woolton. He emphasized that our task to produce food stuffs will be one of the greatest in History,' be­cause Europe right now is in a“state of nutritional exhaustion.”He was sure our post war problemwould not be surpluses, but maybeshortages in such things at ve pro­duce in this country; meat*, dairyproducts, fata and oils. Anotherinteresting point he made—and Imust boil these down to space—thatout of every >10 worth of foodbought in Britain $9.50 is con­trolled. Price stabilization is funda­mental to the British system of food control.• • • A former weekly newspaper man, now associate editor of publications for the Boy Scouts Association of Canada, Bert Mortlock, came to this office the other day and mentioned a little thing he’d like a "plug” on nationally. That’s “Apple Day” car­ ried out by the Scouts in communi­ ties across the country at various dates next month. A hundred thous­ and strong, the Boy Scouts seek to raise money for summer camp equipment, a hundred and one other activities. It’s not a little thing, but a big one. These are the boys whom we’ll depend on to “Carry On, Can­ ada” when the still visionary days of peace come; our future citizens, workers, business men, statesmen. Sure, the folks aren’t going to turn the Scouts down on Apple Day in any community. Items you may have missed: Total of all grains marketed during the 1942-43 crop year was 486,823,292 bushels, an increase of 192,968,720 over the previous' crop year . . . Christmas trees supply will be short owing to transportation and man­ power exigencies. Even the type of twine used for binding them is in short supply. Maybe folks will have to improvise as in other things. Don’t start construction of a dwell­ ing or other project without a li­ cense, warns Munitions Minister Howe. Because of the scarcity of materials a policy of drastic cur­ tailment is now- in effect . .

One of the greatest of all dis­ coveries in bacteria killing drugs, pencillin, a miracle for war wounds, and which will also be invaluable in peacetime, is to be produced in Tor­ onto and Montreal in Dominion government financed plants, employ­ ing 250 men and women. The initial contract is for 26 billion units, largest single order for medical supplies placed by Munitions depart­ ment. The plants will be in operation by February, 1944 and by mid-April a weekly average production of 500 million units is expected. Pencillin has certain qualities superior to sulfa drugs. It is produced through growth of a mould, similiar to that you’ll find on cheese. When you hear of billions of units, don’t think there will be enough right away to serve all humanity. I am told that in dif- lEial fett' m u styield the utmost wflavviw?qu ality is of supreme importanceSALADAficult cases it takes between two and three million units of pencillin, so figure it out that way. amount income tax alone accounted for 8121,490,570 and this is an "up” of over 25r millions. Interesting note to farmers : A ton of timothy hay contains about 18 pounds of nitrogen, 6’,i pounds of phosphoric acid, and around 30 lbs. of potash. This is rather more than would be returned to the land by a ton of ordinary green farm­ yard manure. If no fertilizers were applied, continuous crops of timothy would rapidly deplete the soil, the same is true in a general way of other grasses, the Department of Agriculture states. Where docs the national coffer get its filling? Part of it is from excise and income tax. During the month of August just past, for in­ stance, the "take" was 8201,615,800 as compared with $160,392,837 in the same month last year, which is about a 2 0 increase.
