BOARD OF EDUCATION STRIKE YEAR’S ESTIMATE Renew of library Work Presented at Annual Meeting At a recent meeting of the Public Librarj Board a review of last year’s work was presented. The high spot of 1943 was, of course, the redecor­ ation of the Library and the fresh, bright appearance has been much ap­ preciated. The circulation of books in 1943 rose a little over the preceding year to a total of 42,410. The increase was in the number of non-fiction books borrowed and in the juvenile circulation. This last may have been due to the fact that more books were loaned to the schools for supplemen­ tary reading. About 800 periodi­ cals were borrowed by the public. Nine hundred and forty-two bookswere added to the shelves. Follow­ ing the Board’s suggestion that a special effort be made to learn the wishes of the public in adding books, an excellent idea of the general read­ ing taste has been obtained. Also, several special sections of the Lib­ rary have been built up with a wider range of books—machine shop work, aircraft construction, etc. Special books were also added on economics,music and art. There were 251 new members in 1943. The first forms of the Collegiate had their annual talk on Librarj’. methods, this time paying a visit tothe Library in classes. The arrange-1 ment of books was explained and the I use of the card catalogue, and suit-1 able books for supplementary reading were displayed. The card catalogue was extended to include a complete author and title index and a title index of juv­ enile books. The story hour, held for eight months of the year had a total at­ tendance of 760. In the spring the librarians visited the library conference in London. There were discussions of library publicity, the keeping of ■ historical records, county library,-«vork and boys’ and girls' books— Ingersoll continues to be a mem­ ber of the Oxford County Library Association, which is increasingly active and good use is made of the quarterly distribution of books. Here are some of the types of in­ formation asked for in any couple of days at the Library—designs for em­ broidery, recipes, Bible pictures, electric welding, books on banking, post war plans, Russia, short plays, material for debates, plans for houses, books on personality, book­ reviews, famous paintings. The most general requests in 1943 were for the book, "The Robe”, by Lloyd Douglas, books on Russia, books on aviation, good mysteries. During the month of February the members of the Food Industries of Canada will conduct a campaign for the sale of War Savings Stamps. There are more than 40,000 retail food outlet*, restaurants and hotels in Canada and the objeetvie of the campaign is set at a sale of $2,000,000 worth of stamps. The slogan of the campaign is “Hasten Their Victorious Home Coming” and each merchant has been asked to set a quota for the month and their endeavour will be to ex­ ceed the amount set early in the month. A feature of the campaign will be the offering of a “Book of the Year”, a special book that will take care of stamp purchases each week ending in January. 1945. Filling the book will give the investor a savings of at least $24.00 which will yield a re­ turn of $30.00 at maturity. The little book of the year is de­ signed to fit any handbag or pocket and will serve as a constant re­ minder of it as an implied pledge to continue to make weekly purchases of War Savings Stamps. The campaign of the Retail Food Merchants and their suppliers has the entire endorsation of Minister Finance Ilsley who looks upon the effort as a real contribution to War Finance.

It was found that the board will require $35,350 for public school purposes, $29,555 to be aaised by taxation and $32,000 for Collegiate purposes, of which $17,851 is to be raised by taxation. These amount* are $325.00 higher - than last /ear.

Splendid reports were presented by the different organizations of the church, showing that each had had a very successful year. Mr. A. E. Izz- ard, the secretary-treasurer of the church presented a splendid report and also read the minutes of the last annual meeting, all of which were adopted as read. Mr. Rawlings gave the wardens’ report. Community singing was led by Mr. F. Heath Stone, with Miss Muriel Parker acompanying bn the piano. The most important feature of the evening was the announcement by the rector of a gift to the church by anonymous donors, of a magni­ ficent pipe organ, which deeply touched the hearts of those prosent, as (his .will fill a long-felt want in the musical portion of the services. The following officers were elected for 1944: Rector’s Warden—J. A. Rawlings. People’s Warden—William Street. Secretary-Treasurer—A. E. Izzard. Auditors—F. G. Rich, V. Shipton, J. R. Henley.

The meeting was brought to a close by the benediction by the rector. Two members of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club who are serving with the Canadian Army overseas, have written interesting letters to their fellow-members, expressing thanks for Christmas parcels. Lieut. W. Currie Wilson who is with the Essex Scottish, says in part: “I appreciate the thoughtfulness of all the fellows. My best wishes to all members of the Club for every success in your club projects in 1944.” Captain Warwick R. Marshall who is at Headquarters, Canadian Rein­ forcement Units, writes: “As you can imagine, everyone here is work­ ing very hard for the “ultimate blow.” There are truly interesting and trying day* ahead for all of us over here, I have not seen Don Mac­ kenzie for some time, but have seen Currie Wilson within the past month and had a letter from George Lockhart quite recently. We are going to try to arrange another get- together shortly if possible . . .The other day at noon I was sitting in the mess hall after dinner and it was announced that through the courtesy of the Canadian Legion, some people from Woodstock, Inger­ soll district would speak to boys over here. To my surprise the first voice I heard was A. F. Carr’s and it was very clear, and although he was speaking to his son I sort of felt the message was for me too. It was grand to hear his voice. I also heard Mr. Murray, Mrs. Mole, Mrs. Ron Palmer and others on the broadcast and all voices were A-l. It is those little things that count so much when one is away.” Former North Oxford Reeve Died Friday Andrew Dunn, 84, PassedAway Following a Stroke. He—“What is that ttnsling She—"I’m trying to swallow tbs line, you’re throwing.”. The regular meeting of the Lion* Club waa held on Monday evening at the St. Charles* Coffee Shop, with a good attendance of members. Guests of the club included members of the Kiwanis Club and the Y's men. George Baskett presided and daring the evening a male quartette com­ posed of Harry Watson, C. H. Kipp, Howard Young and Frank Fulton sang a number of selections. President Gordon Pittock of the Y’s men and George Sutherland and C. A. Love of the Kiwanis Club, ex­ pressed the thanks of their clubs for the hospitality of the Lions. Lion Frank Leake introduced the speaker of the evening, W. A. (Billy) Fry of Dunnville, a close associate of Lion Leake for a period covering nearly half a century. In opening his address, Mr. Fry stated that to come to Ingersoll was like coming home. This had been the only place he had ever lived apart from his home town of Dunnville and having married an Ingersoll girl he felt he had an extra claim on Ingersoll. He came here in 1890 and was closely associated in musical circles both in choir and band work. His address interspersed with a wealth of stories, many dealing with his activities as an editor of a weekly newspaper. After working two years as a grocery clerk, he began his career as a printer’s devil and after two years decided he would like to move. At the age of 19 he made this decis­ ion and advertised himself as a printer and cornet player. At this time the A.O.F. in Ingersoll were getting a brass band organized with the late E. L. Smith as secretary, who also was foreman in the Inger­ soll Chronicle office. The dual role as advertised by young Fry. appealed to Mr. Smith who persuaded Geo. Gurnett, the proprietor of the Chron­ icle, that they needed an extra printer. For a little over five year, Mr. Fry continued in Ingersoll and then got married and returned to Dunnville, where he started a paper of his own in 1896. He cited some of the difficulties and trials of a weekly editor as he had experienced them as well as the troubles that Could be avoided or be put up with as editor. Police Court proceedings were said to have been difficult to cope with and he also told some amusing incidents arisingfrom typographical errors. He stressed the importance of the weekly newspaper to a community and the great responsibility of giving news to a vast crowd. The speaker said that he took a great pride in his paper, the Dunnville Chronicle, the name of which had been grounded in his associations here with the Ingersoll Chronicle. As a member of the Lions Club in Dunn­ ville, he stated that he held an added link to his associations with Ingersoll and the Lions here. Lion John Borland expressed the thanks of the club to the speaker. In closing the meeting, President George Baskett announced the names of five - new members to the local 'club, who will be officially ini­ tiated at the next regular meeting.

"What do you want here?” asked Satan. "I want to collect from several of my customers who died before I did," was his response. "How do you know that they’re here?" asked Satan. ’ “Well, they told me to eome here every time I tried to collect.” David Clark, of Cook's School, won the West Oxford 'Oratorical Contest award in a hotly contested event in West Oxford Township Schools held at Folden’s last Wednesday night. There were seven contestants and all accredited themselves in a marvel­ lous manner. David’s subject was “The Rabbit”, and his teacher is Mrs. Grace Summers. Second place was given to Shirley Howard, of Five Points, who spoke on tho subject "How can we all help in the war effort”. Her teacher is Miss Ruth Hawkins. Third place went to Jim Mutcrer, of Dunn’s School, who I spoke on the subject, "The Ashphalt Industry of Trinidad”. ’His teacher is Mrs. Mildred Batten. The other contestants and their teachers were: Arlene Harvey, of Centreville, who spoke on "Henry Hudson", teacher, Miss Helen S.

Council adjourned to meet at the Township Hall, Beachville, on Tues­ day, February 1, 1944, at 1.30 o'clock p.m.—F. J. Gurry, clerk. The threat to the personal libertyof all Canadians, inherent in theplans of the socialists for the nation­alization of Canadian industry, wasemphasized by Morris W. Wilson, President of The Royal Bank ofCanada, at the bank’s annual meet­ing.Mr. Wilson reviewed the tremen­dous role Canada had played in this mightiest war of all time and themanner in which workmen and en­terprisers alike had co-operated .init. “Despite this fact,” he said, “weare being told by all the publicitymethods revolutionary partisans candevise, that in order to win thepeace we must change our entireeconomic system and launch outinto new and untried paths, under new and inexperienced leaders.The theorists and visionaries whopreach these doctrines of an econ­omic revolution may be thoroughlyhonest and sincere. But the factremains that the principles they ad­vocate can only lead, as a final andinevitable result, to a completelyregimented economy, and on thispoint I cannot do better than quotethe Editor of the London Economist,a well-known writer of liberal views:.A wholly planned economy"is incompatible with any degree of“political freedom. The possibility "of a man’s earning his living in his“own way, without let or hindrance,"is the essential condition of there"being any freedom of discussion,“any freedom to oppose. If more“than a fraction of the electorate“come to depend for their livelihood"upon the temporary masters of the“mechanism of the State—that is,“upon the politicians—then democ-“racy is at an end.””1 am more convinced than everthat the menace of socialistic teach­ing is one which closely affects every­one in Canada in both his businessand private life."These advocates of a new orderhave an astounding scheme, whichwill result in nothing less than com­ plete regimentation of Canada. Asyou know, one of their principalobjectives, and the first plank intheir platform, is to nationalize the banks. HEALTH LEAGUE of CANADA CLEARINGAUCTION SALE— OF —Farm Stock, Implement* and Feed TUESDAY, FEB. lat, at 1 p.m. fails to occupy fields of activity Intowhich it later finds that public opin­ion has forced the Government toenter.”Mr. Wilson saw ne reason forapproaching the post-war era withany defeatist attitude and declared that the same energy, initiative andselflessness which had developed inthe war years, could be used forconstructive purposes after thepeace.In all plans for the rehabilitationof devastated countries the United States and Canada would be lookedto as leaders, he said. POST-WAR REHABILITATION The inaugural meeting of the; West Oxford Council was held in the Township Hall, Beachville, on Jan­ uary 10, 1944, commencing at 11 o’clock a.m. After taking and subscribing the necessary oath of office, the follow­ ing members took their seats: Reeve Charles M. Swartz and Councillors Fred C. Shelton, John G. Masson, W. B. Blancher and Percy M. Sage. The minutes of the last meeting and of nomination proceedings were read and confirmed.

As mentioned prev­ iously it is not only the liaison offi­ cer that must co-operate with the Branch to ensure proper food sup­ plies, but the housewife as well. To­ day we will consider the methods in which you as a consumer can help your retailer in these difficult times. The Consumer Branch asks you to follow these few points carefully in your every day activities, not only when you are shopping but during your every day activities. 1. Join with your retail store operator (retailer), in the fight against rising living costs. Know his ceiling prices by keeping track of ! them in your Wartime Prices and Trade Board “Blue Book”. 2. Help your dealer to help you. Don’t ask for extra service unless it is absolutely necessary. For ex­ ample: Don’t ask for delivery of those parcels which you yourself can carry. 3. Give your household appli­ ances the proper care they deserve. Keep them clean and oiled. Learn to make minor repairs yourself. This will save overhaul and replace­ ment expense and will also help your dealer. 4. Buy only what you need and avoid placing an undue strain on your retail store operator’s stocks. He is curtailed to 60 per cent of his 1941 purchases. 5. Know what ration coupons are valid and avoid asking your store operator unnecessary questions. Know also the value of the cou­ pons—this will save time for every­ one. 6. Shop early in the day and early in the week, thus avoiding “peak loads”. Your retail store epert ator is having difficulties getting experienced labour and this will help him to give you and your neighbours his best service. 7. Do-not make any unnecessary demands on him. Remember these are difficult days for him too. This co-operation among you as a consumer and the retailers will help in a large measure to hold the line against inflation. AVON Rev. A. J.

Avtex SOCIALIST MENACE "Naturally, we are interested inpreserving our business, in which somany shareholders have invested,and to which so many depositors haveentrusted their savings. But evenmore as citizens than as business­men, we deplore the rise of thiscreed, because we firmly believe thatI implementation of the socialist .planwould ruin this generation and setCanada back centuries.“It is as a citizen as well as abanker that I put before you somefurther considerations to which Ihope you will give your earnestthought.“The course of the socialist partyin Canada has been charted for usin several books which make clearthat nothing short of complete soc­ialization of the means of product­ion and finance will satisfy the party.That means domination of everyphase of economic life, 'including,agriculture, labour and capital.Therefore, l?ccftU8'; wc foil intoone or other of the classes, it meansdomination of every individual."What would the socialists achieve by nationalization of the banks?Their book on social planning saysthat they will form one board ofdirectors for the national bank mon­opoly instead of the ten boardswhich now operate the competitivechartered banks."Socialistic literature suggeststhat access to the books of the bankand a consequent rupture of theconfidential relationship that nowexists between bank and depositor,would be of inestimable value indetermining taxation policies. But would this appeal to the depositor?“Furthermore, as we are organ­ized today, a prospective borrowermay go from one’bank to another ifhe fails’to convince the first bankerof his probity, ability and prospects;under the socialistic system, unlessthe prospective borrower could con­vince the state bank of the sound­ness of the project for which hesought to borrow money, and also that the transaction to be financedwas in harmony with socialist partyobjectives, he would be turned downand would have no other bank tolook to for a loan. Do you thinkthat such a system would assure theborrower of as fair treatment as he now receives?"I believe the answer to thesetwo questions, affecting depositorsand borrowers, is a positive ’No.’On the contrary, history'and exper­ience lead us to expect that such* agovernment monopoly of bankingwould' lead to favouritism of partyadherents. At the same time, weshould witness a spread of that ster­ility of ideas and enterprise whichtends to accompany every .humanactivity that finds itself in appositionof unchallengeable power.’' PRIVATE BANKING BEST Mr. Wilson suggested that it. wasnot simply due to chance thaf bank­ing the world over had continued inprivate hands, but that the people and the Governments had consideredit advisable from every point of viewthat banking should be free of pol­itical and partisan influences. He re­minded his audience that .Canadianbanks were already effectively con­trolled by the Bank of Canada andthat further intervention by the Gov­ernment in the banking businesswould, in his belief, be superfluousand would not be welcomed by themajority who deal with the banks.Mr. Wilson again urgecfo4)usinessto speak up on its own behalf. “Bus- in ess will have only itself to blameIf, through inaction, It vacates or young people supplied the program, turned to 1Mrs. George Corliss has returned Mr. anhome from Toronto where she baa Maniatea.

Dobson, Vice-Presidentand General Manager, in reviewingthe bank's Balance Sheet said thatthe volume of business passingthrough the bank’s books had been unprecedented during the past year.Total assets now exceeded $1,500,-000,000, an all-time high in thehistory of the bank. He reviewed at length the partplayed by the banks in assisting thecountry’s war financing. ’There appears to be a miscon­ception in the minds of some peoplethat the banks purchase a substan­tial portion of the Governmentpublic issues and increase theirearnings in this manlier. This isnot the case. During 1943 two Vic­tory Loans were issued, realizing$2,692,000,0OQ. the 4th VictoryLoan floated in May last was pur­chased by 2,660,000 subscribers andthe 5th Victory Loan in October byover 3,000,0fl'J. In neither loan didthe banks Buy bonds for their ownaccount. While there is naturallysome change in the holdings of theorigins/ subscribers, relatively onlyan unimportant amount found itsway Into the banks. "In common with the other banks,w< have done everything possible toniake these Victory Loans a suc­cess. Managers have encouragedcustomers to subscribe or to in­crease their subscriptions. All de­positors considered capable of sub­scribing for an amount of $50 ormore have been written to and ad­vertisements have been inserted inthe press urging depositors to sub­ scribe to the full extent of theirability." EARNINGS MODEST Despite the tremendous increasein the business of the bank, earningswere modest, said Mr. Dobson. “I think that any fair-minded personwill agree that the $2,100,000 paidto shareholders last year was a verymodest amount to be paid to the pro­prietors of the bank, when we con-,sider the size of the organization'and the tremendous amount of busi­ ness it is necessary to handle inorder to.earn that amount Any othertype of business working with assetsof one and a half billion dollarswould have been able to earn forshareholders a considerably largerreturn. If we consider this yield inrelation to our two main earningassets, loans and investments, we find that the dividend paid to our share­holders was less than l/5th of onecent on the dollar on the totp£ ofthese two items, a very trifling hand­ling charge, to say the least. I havenever heard the claim made thatCanadian banks are not efficientlyrun, therefore the answer must bethat the profit in banking is small.” Mr. Dobson reported that the pro­gress made by the bank’s South American branches had been partic­ularly gratifying and that its foreignbranches were in a position to be ofpractical aid in promoting post-wartrade. The General-Manager remarkedon the efficient manner in whichthe bank’s staff had dealt with tre­mendously Increased business andprovided new wartime services des­pite enlistments, and paid tribute tothe enthusiasm and ability of themany young women iVho have joinedthe bank since the war began. 2,123 ENLISTMENTS “The voluntary response of ourstaff to our country’s call has beenmagnificent,” said Mr. Dobson,'“andthere are now 2,123 men in thearmed forces. Of this number 2,000were employed in Canada, which isequivalent to 69 vl of our Canadianstaff-of military age at the outbreakof war. “To these men the bank pays aportion of the difference betweentheir bank salary and service pay.They retain their membership inthe Pension Fund Society, and thebank pays their group insurance pre­miums. We shall welcome them whenthe time comes for them to returnto their duties in the bank. “Unhappily the number of casual­ties has doubled since I last reportedto you; 67 of our young men havenow given their lives in the cause.Their names, which we hold in'hon-our, appear in the printed record ofthis meeting), and we extend ourheartfelt sympathy to their families.” turned to her home hero. *' and Mrs. Ivan Warren ofi. , , . ■ ware Sunday visitors atthe home of Mr. P.
