Merifield Will Address Kiwaniann In compliance with the request of the^Sfinister of Finance, the Inger- ■sbll Krwanis Club meeting to-night, (Thursday), will have a Victory Loan program. Rev. H. E. Merifield wUl deliver the address for the occas­ ion and the members are looking forward to a very ‘' interesting Dear Howard— Your lovely Christmas parcel sent (around Dec. 21st, has arrived this week and I want to assure you bow pleased I was. Its contents were all so appropriate and so useful and that book of English ideas I find very interesting and illuminating. Well, it is a long time since I have seen you and your folks, although I sort of feel I hear from you quite often, for the Tnbune keeps coming along, sometimes very slowly, and sometimes faster. Really our mail de­ livery is a very sore spot with the troops over here. I know your dad swings a good party stick, but for a number of reasons, the Army is tak­ ing a very poor view of Liberal Ad­ ministration and many of us who have always been staunch Liberals feel that there are a few things that need pepping up or looking into. Naturally, there are so many things I can’t say from here, but there is one thing we are facing and that is the genera] voice of the soldier doesn't seem to be very liberally in­ clined these days. There are so many things in administration, per­ sonnel, etc., I’m afraid they will have Tillaonbarg—Mrs. James Apple­ yard, a native of this town, died at London, Thursday last. She was the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Archibald Pow and had lived in Lon­ don 20 years. Surviving are her hus­ band, London; two brothers, Archi­ bald Pow, Ridge town; William G. Pow, Tillson burg, and two sisters, Mrs. C. J. Cunningham, Hamilton and Mis* Jessie Pow, London. Port Stanley—Fishing tugs have been averaging a ton of fish per tug and the catch is only considered fair. Off Long Point the fish appear to be more plentiful, the lifts amount­ ing to six or seven tons per tug. Price of freshly caught lake pickerel and perch is lower than at any time last year. Otterville—Sam Yet prevented a robber from stealing >100 worth of cigarettes, by striking him over the back of the neck with the blunt side| of a meat cleaver. (REGIONAL MEETING OF LIBRARY ASSOCIATION Col. Ralston’s visit to us was most advantageous. I had a good conver­ sation with him and we tried to out­ line a few things. I believe he has tried to effect some things since he has gone home, whether«it wasn't as easy as he thought it would be, or too many difficulties have been in the way, I don’t know, or maybe we expect action too fast. Just to men­ tion one thing alone, auxiliary ser­ vices and supplies have been a big problem. There has been too much E.F.I. and N.A.AJF.I., (that is Brit­ ish), and not enough Canadian. I think the general feeling is there has been too much toddying to British preference or Imperialism and not enough real Canadian management, one symbol alone, too many “V” cigarettes, which are about as rank and rotten as you will find any­ where and not enough Canadian ones. However, I think since Col. Ralston went back, things are changing, we still look for many more. But enough of this, these, or many of them willjhave to be settled later. The big job now is to beat “Jerry” this year. Certainly we know the Can­ adian people are doing a marvellous job and I can say the boys here are doing a real job. But all are getting tired, wc want , to see it over and get home. How- . ever with the Tribune and such kindnesses as your box, it helps to make life so much more liveable. Gratefully, Chas. D.

The Ingersoll Tribune lob Printing Department " Phone 13 Dunnvillc, April 21—On Sept. 4, 1896. the first edition of the Dunn- ville Chronicle made its appearance with W. A. Fry as the publisher and editor. At that time there were two other papers firmly established in Dunnville, the Gazette and the Re­ form Press. “Old Bill” Fry lived to see the day, however, when his “baby” was the lone survivor in the journalistic field in this town. William Alexander Fry, in his 72nd year, laid down his pen on March 29, 1-944, and on Fri­ day, April 21, he wrote “30” to a career that has made him interna­ tionally known 'both in the newspaper and sports world. W, A. Fry was bom in Dunnville on Sept. 7, 1872, a son of the late Dr. and Mrs. J. S. Fry, and prac­ tically all his life was spent here. As a boy he started in the newspaper business at the now defunct Dunn­ ville Gazette, later moving to Inger­ soll to work on the Chronicle there. While at Ingersoll he met and mar­ ried Mias Pearl Campbell, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Homer Campbell, and the same year re­ turned to Dunnville, where he foun­ ded his own paper, the Chronicle. He-was stricken rather suddenly on Sunday, Mepch 19, and in spite of his own doctor and two special­ ists he graddaily weakened until his passing on Friday of this week. He was taken to the Hamilton General J Hospital, April 13, and while there was given t,wo blood transfusions. For a short time he appeared to- be responding, but on Friday morning he started to fail, and the end came. shortly after 1 p.m. Surviving are his widow, one daughter, Marjorie C., and one son,'I William C., at home; one brother, i Harry of Dunnville; one sister, Mrs. I Robert Haarmeyer of Scranton, Pa.;, and a granddaughter, Miss Adrienne Wheaton of Toronto. L / Mr. Fry’s activities were numewus and Varied, but in spite of thesJKe found time to be friend to everyone with whom he came in contact, and it is safe to say that no man will be missed rtore in Haldimand Cotmty than he. The masthead of his paper carries the slogan: “For the cause that lacks assistance; ’gainst the wrongs that need resistance; for the future in the distance, and the good that we can do,” and this was truly his creed through life. Mr. Fry was a frequent visitor to Ingersoll during the past few years and had many friends here who will mourn his passing. He addressed the Lions Club here since the nefw year on his early day experiences. Death came to Mrs. Angus Minty on Thursday night last, following a lengthy illness, at Victoria Hospital, where she had been undergoing treatment for the past eleven weeks. The late Mrs. Minty, who was bornat Fullerton, was 40 year* of age, and had spent the greater part of her life in Woodstock, and for 16 years had made her home in Inger­ soll where her quiet and unassuming manner had won for her many friends and her passing is deeply re­ gretted. Since last November the family had resided in Ayhner. Left to mourn the passing of a be­ loved wife and mother are her hus­ band and little son Gerald. Also sur­ viving are her father, Richard Kel- lington, Woodstock, and four sisters, Mrs. Wm. Maycock, Mrs. Chas. Rid­ dell, Mrs. F/ank Smith and Miss Georgina Kellington, all of Wood- stock. The funeral was held from the Fred S. Newman Funeral Home, on Sunday afternoon, with service at two o’clock, conducted by Rev. R. H. Parr, of Trinity United £hurch. The large attendance at the service and the profusion of beautiful floral tokens, were testimony of the high esteem in which deceased was held. Interment was made soli Rural Cemetery, were John Musclow, Fidele Tondreau, James Scott, Stanley Whiteford and Gail Rine. at the Inger- Pall bearers Percy Carter, Tillsonburg; Noted Authority Gave Lecture on Bird Life EBENEZER Sponsored by the Evening Group of the Ladies’ Aid of St. Paul's Presbyterian Church, an extremely interesting illustrated lecture on birds and other wild life, was given in the church last Friday evening. The speaker was Mr. Hugh Halliday of The Toronto Star , one of the country's best-known authorities on bird life and* he was introduced to the large ydience by Dr. H. H. Turner. ^The coloured slides, all photo­ graphs in natural colour, were re­ markable and clearly showed Mr. Hallliday's knowledge of his subject and his care and patience in obtain-: ing the pictures. Through these pic­ tures and his address, * the speaker presented an interesting story of the appearance, habits and habitat of many of the birds with which the people of southern Ontario are more or less familiar. Mr. Halliday empha­ sized the valuable service birds Ten­ der to man in the killing of des­ tructive insects and stated that binds of prey such as hawks and eagles attack chickens and other farm birds only when starving. Members of the Boys’ Mission Band of the church had on display a large number of fine bird houses which they sold at the end of the evening. Preceding the lecture. Mrs. L. W. Staples played several delight­ful piano nun^bers. 1 TABLE ONLY—Pattern Hats including prettytaffeta and Milan straws-jtrimmed with flow-era and ribbon.

There are five vacancies for every three available, although 31,- 060 person* m> listed are no* en­ gaged in essential work. A large number of the 1944 engineering and science graduate* have already been spoken for by Army, Navy and Air Force. As close as can be reckoned by the responsible department, there should be at least 8,000,000 bushels of apples for fresh consumption in Can­ ada for 1944-46, or about 35 pounds per head of population, against an average ef 26 pound* in the two years just before the war. The pros­ pect is given as good for a healthy demand at or cloee to ceiling prices for best varieties and packs. There were short crop* in 1940, 1941, 1942, but the near normal crop now pre­ dicted for 1944 is estimated at about 12,885,000 bushels. Canadians farms showed fine in­ creases in all types of livestock, the official survey of December 1, 1943, showed. Cattle on farms were up by 672,500 head or 7.6 per cent..

The recommendations are most interesting in view of the fact ’ that the National Housing Act will j come before Parliament. The committee recommends the building of 188,000 new farm homes as never Victory buy i of self-denial is too great.I Are you prepared to put EVERY SINGLE DOLLAR YOU CAN ®AVE into Victory bonds? Into timated cost of 9282,000,000, with 9,400 being built annually. The com* mittee was moved, it is certain, by the important changes brought about by the war in farm population which has been decreasing steadily. Housing, it would appear, is con­ sidered a dominant factor in getting people back into agriculture, partic­ ularly young people now in the armed forces, who will be making their first start in working life after the war. To get a proper perspective of the situation you must know that at the time of the first census in 1871, over 80 per cent of/Canada’s population were farmers. By 1941 this had dropped to only 46 per cent. Between August 31, 1939 and January 31, 1943, over 480,000 men and boys left their farms, some into the forces, others into industry. It Ts interesting to note, too, a shift in fanning is slowly taking place. During the ’30’s both Ontario and Nova Scotia showed 20 per cent decreases in their farm populations. New Brunswick and Saskatchewan re­ ported 10 per cent fewer farmers; while Prince Edward Island, Mani­ toba and British Columbia indicated 5 per cent decline& Only in Quebec and Manitoba did the numbers of farmers increase and by less than 10 per cent. There have been further losses in the last three years. Then take abandoned farms, ris­ ing in number from 32,800 in 1931 to 52,500 in 1941 (and, of course, higher today), all reflecting the flight from the farm. Farm values over the same period decreased from an aver­ age of 87,200 in 1931 to 86,700 in 1941, njainly on land and buildings, for there has definitely been an in­ crease in value of implements, machinery and livestock. The Report makes no forecast as to future growth of Canadian farm population, but does visualise a great increase in mixed farming. The rec­ ommendations, based on careful study and analysis, would seem to prove one thing, farming must be made more attractive and housing is one of the prime considerations. In addition the Report recommends be­ sides the homes, erection of farm laborers’ cottage and community centres, and the donation by the Federal Government of electrical, plumbing, heating and refrigeration equipment to farm housing projects in return for the labor of installation. Other factors of importance in attracting farmers back to the soil are land settlement schemes, pro­ duction and price policies designed to keep up farm prices, immigration policy, and the scope of farm amen­ ities program, plus the extension of rural facilities such as electrification, schools, etc. Notes from the Services: More than 2,000 British airmen trained in Canada married Canadian girls . . .

First, in the past almost six billion dollars were subscribed in Victory Loan campaigns. Second, a recent report has revealed that savings deposits in the chartered banks of Canada have reached a new high sum of $2,123,- 000,000. Third, in the last year alone farm mortgage debts in the three Prairie Provinces were reduced by about 14 per cent. Fourth, during this war various debts in general have been reduced, including obliga­ tions due to several farm implement companies having been reduced about i 90 per cent, debts of municipalities by about $175,000,000, bonded debts of business corporations by about $225,000,000; etc. W ill You Help PASS THE AMMUNITION Ingersoll - Ontario INDIANS IN ARMED FORCES No less than 2,383 Indians out of a total, population of 118,370 have joiqgd the Canadian armed forces in this war.

D.<Howe, has stated that Canada had imported a totaj of 28.1.08,485 tons of coa] from. Great Britain and the United States in the past year.

Here’s a thought that might pay dividends to every Ontario farmer. Pasturing is the most efficient and the most economical method of feeding farm animals for meat or milk production.Why? Well, here are four good reasons—1st, because the feed is well balanced and highly nutritious; 2nd, because animals get it when it is fresh and at its best both in pal- atability and in nutritive value; 3rd, because there’s no labour cost for harvesting and feeding; and finally, because there’s little or no waste of feed. It pays to push the pastures, es­ pecially trhen labour is scarce and when meat and milk are in demand. This year meat and milk products are urgently needed, prices are rea­ sonably good and labor certainly is scarce.. So this is the year to push the pastures, and right now is the time to get ready for the push. How do you go about pushing? Well, top dreasing with either man­ ure or commercial fertilizer will help to thicken the pasture and promote vigorous growth. On good land no other crop will give better returns for fertilizer used. This year the government is helping to pay for some of the mopt needed fertilizers. If you’re not sure how the fertilizer subvention works, your Agricultural Representative or fertilizer dealer can tell you. But be sure to get your fertilizer early—the supply may run put. Everybody's 'busy making plans for the coming season and nobody will go far wrong to figure pastures in with the general plan. Actually they are your best bet. Push the pastures and produce the food that will help to win the war. Good far­ ming means ^ood feeding and’ in these times good feeding means good fighting. Then don’t forget there’s another year coming when you will still need good pastures. Very likely you will be seeding down u field or two this year. If you are, get good seed of ALEX.

It urged parents to have children immunised for diphtheria, smallpox, and whooping cough before the schools close and the young people take to the playgrounds and summer camps. Toronto will have its annual Tox­ oid Week, starting on April 23. This •event, sponsored by the Health League in co-operation with the city health authorities, has been a big factor in reducing incidence of diph­ theria—killer of childhood.

In that case the increase is theresult of greater production, the store of goods produced is larger and, the individual, shares in the new found prosperity no matter what his line of work has been..

I am thoroughly convinced that they are just as capable of doing the job as others who have tried it. There is another alternative; demolish the whole conception—prove that the basis of this argument is unsound— a difficult task indeed!

By holding the telephone at that distance, 100 per cent efficiency is obtained, whereas at one-inch away from the lips effic­ iency is only 60 per cent. There is a scientific reason why we do-not hear what our voices sound like to others, the speaker pointed out. Just above, the larynx, where the vocal sounds originate, there is a tiny tube leading from the throat passage to the middle ear. This tube, and the bones of the head, carry the voice sounds to the middle ear. The sound originating in the throat is much louder in volume and lower in pitch than the moulded voice that proceeds out of the mouth. Thus a person's voice—as he hears it —lacks many of the qualities of the voice that have been moulded by the lips, tongue, teeth and Jaws and the resonators in the nose, mouth and C.O.O.F. TREATED TO DOT MAPLE SUGAR PARTY If the British Army had been as voice-conscious 90 years ago as it is today, the blunder which started the charge of the Light Brigade might not have happened, Mr. Spencer said. The men in our armed forces now are taught to speak clearly and distinctly, he said. Winston Churchill has that great, hut self-taught ability to convey pre­ cisely what he thinks by the way he enunciates a word or phrase. When the Prime Minister snarls “Nazi", we help him chew the word because he sums up for us in his utterance of that word all the loathing, the hatred and contempt we feel for the works of Hitler and his gang. Mr. Spencer addressed the students of the Ingersoll High School in the afternoon. At Thursday night’s meeting. W. L. McBride, manager of the Bell Telephone Company, Woodstock, was a guest. W. Willis was the technician. The meeting was, presided over by A. E. Izzard. The speaker was introduced by H. I. Stewart, local manager of the Telephone Company and the thanks of the club were expressed by T. N. Dunn. An interesting feature was the recording of a song number, espec­ ially given for Kiwanians, by Harold Wilson and Alan Horton. Put Victory First BUY VICTORY BONDS NOW C.O.O.F. lodge members and their ladies were guests at an old time “Sugaring Off” party on Tuesday evening, in their lodge rooms. D-D.G.M. Glen Topham and Charles Holmes, financial secretary, both of the local lodge, were the hosts who supplied the necessary maple pro­ ducts of their own manufacture. During the preparation of this, a lively game of carpebball was played when members and ladies took part >with Wm. Vyse and Hector McLeod as captains, the former team win­ ning with a smalf njargin. Several tables of euchre were also played. At the conclusion, tables were well arranged, when an abundance of maple syrup was sugared off which was greatly enjoyed by all. Added to this, the ladies supplied home-made biscuits to complete -a perfect social. Noble Grand James Sutherland oc­ cupied the chair and extended a welcome and hoped that all had en­ joyed this splendid event. A vote of thanks was then exten­ ded to Messrs. Topham and Holmes for the qplendid refreshments sup­ plied by them. After this the hosts thanked the gathering for their appreciation. Mr. Topham gave a short history of the early making of maple syrup when the white people first came to America. The method the Indians used at that time was to make a sup­ ply tank for sap by cutting a log and chopping a hollow in the centre whkh held the sap,. There being no kettle or pans in those days, they simply cut the end of the maple limbs and conducted sap to tank by using bark slabs. The sap was then evaporated by building a large fire near the trough to heat stones. When hot these stones were put into sap tank. After cooling down, sap was reheated and in time was reduced to excellent syrup and sugar. Others who gave short speeches were James Fergusson, John E. Bor­ land, Harry Cade, Wm. Crellin, and Clarence Todd, who is chairman of the social committee, all expressing pleasure at being in attendance at such a splendid function. Radio music was supplied by Clarence Todd. Center of a vast war effort, Longue Pointe, Que., Ordnance Depot, shown above, is one of the key supply depots of the United Nations.

In 1943. 1,326 cases containing cigar­ ettes, tobacco, books, vitamins and games were also sent out. Among shipments despatched were valuable drugs for China, hospital comforts and supplies to Newfoundland; goods and clothing to British and Canadian prisoners in Japan and food and drugs to the value of $5-66,194 direct to Greece by International Red Cross ships. It is interesting to note that during the year, for different organ­ izations, Red Cross has shipped 161,000,000 cigarettes and 7,000 lbs. of tobacco. Mrs. EL P.

Why? Is it possible when we think of death and agony in those terns we can really rejoice* If we can, are we not ghouls? But of course we can’t and don’t. The destruction that our bombs do is registered in our minds as destruct­ ion of so much material, of houses, shops, railways, factories, all empty of human beings like ourselves, who would be torn and mangled and bur­ ied in the debris. It is better so. The idea that we must be made to hate so that we can glory in slaughter is a vicious one, an idea born of the frenzy that war causes in some diseased minds. It is better to have the mind focused on some nobility that comes out of the struggle, the unending courage, the humour and the sublimity of self­ sacrifice that are exhibited by the men who must do our fighting for us, who take their lives in their hands every time they fly to drop the bombs. They at least make no boast of the numbers they have killed or rendered derelict. They don’t talk of war and death, though they walk hand in hand with him and look him fearlessly in the eye. They are im­ personal in their outlook and so should we be, knowing that war comes from a series of errors of judgment and that when it comes it must be fought and we suffer the consequences. Jo feel that it is necessary to enlarge on the misery we deal the enemy and to rejoice mightily as the misery pyramids, is to believe that to cause suffering to others is to ease our own. It may be so, but if it is, it is a sad reflection on our men­ tality. We cannot help that suffer­ ing, but surely we don’t have to re­ joice in it, and yet that is what is implied when over the radio we hear the announcer gloatingly giving the number of tons dropped, comparing it with the numbers that fell on Lon­ don or Coventry, and joyously estim­ ating the number of victims killed or rendered homeless. If misery likes company, perhaps the people nf .London and Coventry do rejoice, that what was done to tbem is being done tenfold to the people of the Reich, but I don’t be­ lieve it. Do you suppose it eases the wound made in a mother's heart here when she loses a son, to know that another woman in an enemy country has suffered a similar loss.

Locke who has beenvisiting in the community, left onSaturday for her home in Calgary. bit She is the more likely to under­ stand that other woman’s suffering and to curse with her the folly that leads to the taking of their loved ones. It isn’t possible to estimate the number of dead after such raids as we have inflicted on German cities and we are wiser not to wish to hear. The Archbithop was right in that and the sooner the newscasts eliminate their seeming heartless gloating the better. It doesn’t help us to win the war. There are other ways ot bol­ stering our morale if it needs it and one good -way would be to show us that everything is being done to pre­ vent such an upheaval occur!ng again and conclusively proving to us that after the war u> over we are really going to have a more equitable world, both here at home and abroad.

Here is a list which should see you through the most trying journey: Three clean face cloths, an antiseptic mouth wash, toothpaste and tooth brush, shampoo, manicure set, several boxes of face tissues, pair of tweezers, cleansing cream (large jar), half a dozen cakes of your favourite whip­ ped cream lather beauty soap, bottle of astringent—and' don't forget that handy bottle of peroxide or iodine to take care of the unexpected cut or sore. BUY TbartelTs TODAY! g Stere Any girl can stretch her clothes budget attractively if she takes to dyeing or tinting! Yes, it's easy to change last year’s dress or blouse in­ to something new and different if the right directions are followed. Garments to be dyed must be boiled, so do not attempt to dye delicate fabrics. However, any material can be successfully tinted because tint­ ing, though not as permanent as dye­ ing, does not require boiling. To dye or tint, first wash your garment thoroughly in gentle fine fabric suds, rinse, and while still wet and free from folds—immerse in the dye bowl. Use a large enough vessel and enough solution so that the fabric is not crowded. If you are dyeing, boil garment three to eight minutes, depending on the depth of colour you want.
