THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE______________________________________________________________i_________________________________________ fte Oafe PMWMm4 m IngereoU COMPLAINTS AIRED AT COUNCIL MEETING Town Council oa Tuesday evening. Councillor H. T. Bower presided as Acting Mayor. Mayor Daniel and Councillor C, W. RU»y were absent. A communication was rocetved from Alexandra Hospital Trust ask- $2 00 for indigent patients instead oat that if this were done a grant of 75 cents per day would be avail­ able from the province in place of the 60 cents now paid. It was asked that the new rate be fixed as from January 1st, 1944. Thia was re­ ferred to the Finance Committee for a report at the next meeting. The Kiwanis Club wrote asking permission to use the Market Square for their annual carnival on Sept. 7, 8 and 9. This request was granted later by resolution. A letter from the Oxford Cheese Producers’ Association asked that the Town Council make an appoint­ ment of an official cheese weigher. The name $>f Chas. D. Harrison was suggested. This was done by resolu­ tion with the understanding that no financial liability would be assumed by the town. Councillor Preston raised the question of water service for Oxford Avenue residents and Councillor T. J. Morrison gave a full report of the meeting of council's committee with the Public Utilities Commission. The report stated that the entire group had agreed that the plan was not feasible at the present time, although all were sympathetic to the idea. The situation was gone into very fully and the mode of procedure ex­ plained. Councillor Preston again taking the floor stated that the residents of that district depended upon wells and some of these were not good. A num­ ber of residents of Oxford Avenue were present and submitted a sample of the well water that is being used. It did not look very palatable. One resident said that his well had a quantity of oil on the top of it each morning and that it was necessary for him to carry water from a dis­ tant neighbor’s well to bath his children. Councillor Preston said he felt that the cost seemed to be the mainobstacle and contended that if water service was supplied many working men’s homes would be erected in the area and the vacant lots would become profitable as tax paying properties. Councillor Morrison suggested that a petition be secured from the residents and then the council could put a by-law through its first two readings and have the matter submit­ ted to the. Municipal Board for their consideration. The delegation met the council after adjournment and discussed the matter fully. Councillor Watson asked if any­ thing was to be done about Smith's Pond. Councillor Murray replied that the pond was private property and that the owners would cut the weeds when the proper time arrived. Acting Mayor H. T. Bower read a letter outlining the proposed visit of the C.W.A.C. Pipe and Brass Bands here on August 18th. A parade will be held and an address of welcome given by Mayor DanicL The bands are to arrive here at 4 pjn. on Fri­ day, August 18th.A delegation of residents in the Smith pond district addressed the council on conditions there. S. V Shelton, R. A. Jewett and Fred G. Jones spoke on the matter. They pointed out that they were not an­ tagonistic to the owners in any way, but felt that seeing that the owner was no longer in the ice business that the town council might consider pur­chasing. the property for extending Ingersoll’s park system. If the dam is repaired and water allowed in the pond the place is a beauty spot, where in its present condition it is an eye-sore and weed seeds will soon be blowing across into the gar­ dens in the vicinity. The men stated that the neighborhood would be glad to co-operate with the owners in any way possible to restore the place to its original beauty.

Spectacular Flow Bacon To Britain There is a growing interest throughout Canada concerning the necessity for thoughtful considera­ tion of post-war conditions in agri­ culture and the many associated problems, including that pertinent problem Of employment for returned soldiers, war industries’ workers and others said Dr. E. S, Archibald, Dir­ ector. Dominion Experimental Farms Service, in an address at the recent annual convention of the Can­ adian Society of Technical Agricul­ turists at Toronto. Dr, Archibald re­ viewed at length what was being done and what was intended to be done in the program of post-war work in agriculture. Recognizing the necessity for co­ ordinating all' the reports and rec­ ommendations brought an from Dom­ inion, Provincial and other sources, the Dominion Government, he said, appointed a staff to do that work. Realizing the necessity for depart­ mental studies and the working out of detailed programs, even to the final estimate and blue-print stage, the aid of the various Departments of the Government in Ottawa has been requested. The Dominion De­ partment of Agriculture, for ex­ ample, has a special committee work­ ing out details in agricultural work* program. In the studies being made by the Committee, emphasis is laid on the development of such projects as would provide employment during the post-war period, and at the same time result in lasting benefit to agri­ culture. Those projects are being studied from the long term plan of development with flexibility in order to meet employment needs. The pro­ jects under consideration deal with improvement in agricultural produc­ tion and quality of products, con­ servation of land resources and rais­ ing the standing of living on the farms by improving economic oppor­ tunities in production and market­ ing, Needless to say, conference be­ tween Dominion and Provincial authorities is recognized as of first importance. The Committee should have the advantage of information from each of the Provinces as to their recommendations in reference to the projects being considered. Rev. W.

Despitc'the heavy volume of hog marketings, hog prices have re­ mained firm, as all surplus product is moving forward- at the direction of the Meat Board under the terms of the 1944 bacon agreement where­ by Canada undertook to deliver not less than 500 million lb. of Wiltshire bacon and cuts during 1944. By early June, purchases on this contract had exceeded 400 million lb. so at the moment it appears that not only will the minimum quantity be secured ia slightly over six months, but that total shipments In 1944 may well approach the mini­ mum commitment of 900 million lb, originally scheduled for both’ 1944 and 1945 together. At the present jtlme the United Kingdom is receiv­ ing from Canada approximately the same volume of bacon as her total average annual bacon imports from all countries .from 19£5 to 1939.

Mold flourishes in any dark, warm shut-in space and the kitchen breadbox is a favourite abode, with much l<4-» of good food as a result. Once each week wash it out with hot water and extra-soapy suds, scald with boiling water, and dry thor­ oughly. Leave it open to sun and air before closing it up again. To allow for proper ventilation, the bread­ box should have small openings such as nail holes at each end. As crusts and odd slices of bread are 1 most likely to attract mold, they , should be collected every few days and dried in the oven for crumbs. Remember to remove at once any bread that shows signs of mold, and wash and air the box to prevent mold spreading to other loaves. A group of French women who collaborated with the Nazis are shownhere after having been rounded up the morning of Bastille day. Theywere shorn of their hair and shamed In public for violations of rulesof the French resistance party in regard to conduct with tbe Germans. The women were paraded through the streets of Cherbourg in disgrace.A man in background holds a sign telling the populace that thesewomen are collaborationists. Then a lot of factors combined to bring about a change in eating habits. Cities grew larger—people, particularly women began to skip breakfast to make up the time they spent on street cars. The 20's had introduced the flat cheated flapper and an extra ounce of flesh was the gateway to social oblivion and get­ ting along on two meals a day helped preserve the much-too-thin figure. Dieting, without the advice of a phy­ sician, bcame the smart thing to do and bridge table conversation re­ volved around ways of getting along with almost no food and still sur­ viving. Fortunately for the race this and that more r.fteii we were doinglotmekes «ictual harm, Instead of cur energy from our food— se nature intended—we found it '-ary to report to medicinal formulae for the health-giving con­ stituent* we should have been get­ ting from our meals. But we did come to our senses We found that the time we saved by skipping breakfast didn't pay during the day. We found that if we ate a healthful breakfast of Canadian cereals, that we felt better! Work wasn’t something to drag ourselves through—we had some energy we could put into it. What was most important, we discovered that break­ fast need not be a time consuming meal. Breakfast food, with the health-giving properties odr systems needed, were available in ready-to- serve cereals which spared us the time and trouble of preparing them. And as we enjoyed those break­ fasts and became cereal-conscious another fact began to dawn on us. Cereals needn't be just breakfast foods. With the exception of bread we weren’t used to grain foods after the breakfast hour, so it took a little longer for that last fact to •ink in. When we did make the dis­covery w» realized what we hadtc-en rnfaedng. Now we use carealain pies, in cakes, in meat loaves andin candy. What important too, lathat they actually improve flavour.Dishe* made with cereal have a lift to them and in addition they fortify thos* foods with health giving qualities. Seeinee has been kind to us. Even the best lasting foods may pall if eaten daily. So science has taken our cereals and turned them into several different types of food—so that w« can rotate them for variety. We ean have them with wheat, rice or corn and enjoy them flaked, shredded or popped. If we get temporarily bored with one kind—we can switch to another just as good. We learned our lesson well, are not likely again to take chance* with our health whei^ there is no need for it—Kellogg Co. of Canada.

England, July 26, 1944 Dear Friends: Some time ago I was very sur­ prised and greatly pleased at the very swell fountain pen that 1 re­ ceived from you folks. It really is a beauty and it isn’t the pen’s fault for this poor writing. I have been awfully slow in getting this letter away as I’m not much on letter writing anyway. It certainly has come in handy as 1 had just broken the nib on my old pen. It is almost impossible to get a pen ■ over 4»ere too. It was most thoughtful of you all. The Ingersoll Cream Cheese Co. and The Kiwanis Club as well as the Lions have all sent me cigarettes so I am fairing very well. The fellows are getting scattered all around now so you don’t see them so often, some in Italy and now a lot in France. They are certainly doing a good job in both countries. When invasion started and the transport planes and gliders went over, it was a marvellous sight to witness. The planes go over now so thick that they will soon need traf­ fic lights. I’d sure hate to be on the other side with all the planes going over now. Hitler certainly has plenty to bother him now. The flying bombs of his are a bit of a nuisance but he certainly will never accomplish much with them.. It is very exciting to see them and hear the fighters after them. Any damage caused is only really helping to rebuild this country up better than ever. The mail fins been making very good time lately, five or six days, so that is nice. Letters are sure swell to get over here too. The country is very pretty at this time of year. They haven’t the quick growth we have at home but the Weather is much milder all the year. One day is hot here and the next wet and cold, it never stays the same for any length of time. The war certainly looks much bet­ ter now so if it keeps up it won’t be too lang before we shall be Can­ ada bound and it certainly will be an exciting day then. Once more I express my thanks to you all for the beautiful gift. The best of luck to you all from the boys over here. I remain, A87151—L/Cpl. R. K.

Because of the capabilityof today's Improved equipment to produce good photographs under a wide range of light conditions, andbecause no great difficulty is met in mastering the technique of photog­ raphy, the desire to express artisticfeelings by means of pictures is no longer limited by the refusal ofone's brain,®r lack of training, tocooperate with a paint brush. And by pictures, I do* not mean merelyphotographic records of places or people usually Interesting .only to those familiar with them, but pic­ tures evoking pleasure for all whobehold them, because of their uni­ versal appeal to ths senses, emo- ■ tions, or Imagination.With a camera In your hand, rea­ sonably good powers of observationare. virtually all you need to satisfy your desire for expression. These powers you may exercise by select­ing artistic pictures from the inex­haustible supply already composed for you by nature. It la a matter.ofseeing the picture and "then chews- Ing the camera viewpoint accord­ingly. Or you may direct your own composition to some extent bychanging the arrangement of mov­able objects. You are working with the same art factors as does the artist of penor pencil—forms, masses of light and dark areas, interesting lines, centers of Interest, balance. Andlike the artist you and your camera can achieve artistic results. Keep on wishing you could drawor paint, if you like, but don’t be stopped by your inability to do po.

Gordon McMaster of Brighton, Ontario, proudly displays an iced cake which he turned out at a cooking school operated by the Royal Canadian Army Service Corps in England. Army cooks must learn how to bake bread, buns, pies and other staples as well as more fancy products, and to bake under field service conditions far different from the modem kitchens of permanent Army camps.— (Canadian Army Overseas Photo.) Care of Milking Machines Few inventions have done more to reduce drudgery and save time on the farm than the milking machine. With its aid, milk production has been \maintained during these war years \ven though far fewer able- bodied Ven are available to milk cows. However, there is another side to the picture. Unless mechanical milkers are given proper care, bac­ teria grow in the machine and enor­ mous numbers may be added to the milk. Complaint* and rejections fol- i low, with trouble^or all concerned. This was particularly true during and after the first Great War, and as a result many farmers still have a strong prejudice against milking machine^ Since the last war a great deal of research has been done to develop simple yet effective methods of car­ ing for milking machines. The cul­ mination of these studies has been the development of a method by the Division of Bacteriology and Dairy Research, Science Service, Depart­ ment of Agriculture, Ottawa, which is the most nearly fool-proof of any tested there. In brief, the machines are given a suction rinse with clear cold or luke­ warm water immediately the last cow has been milked. The pail and pail-head are then cared for in the same manner as the other metal utensils, while the teat-cup assem­ bly is placed on a solution rack and filled with a weak solution of com­ mon lye. This remains in the tubes until just before the next milking when it is discarded. Daily dismant­ ling and brushing of the teat-cup assembly is not necessary, as the lye solution not only keeps down the growth of bacteria but also dissolves or removes any traces of milk solids left after the clear water rinse. This method thus maintains the mil­ king machine in excellent sanitary condition with a minimum expendi­ ture of time and effort. More de­ tails concerning this method are given in War-Time Pamphlet No. 54 entitled, “The Milking Machine,’’ copies of which may be obtained free by writing to Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa.

It’s Hot in China and Prices Go Higher A comparison in prices we pay in Canada for essentials with the Chin­ ese rates is rather interesting: "Authorities set a ceiling price on August 4th for ice at 12 Chinese dollars a pound (60 cents) as the city broiled in a heat wave. Other ceiling prices fixed for hot weather refreshers were: Ice cream, 60 Chinese dollars, (S3) a cup; lemon­ ade, S40 a bottle; iced milk, $50 ($2.50) a glass; ice-suckers, $18, (90 cents) a stick. A second-hand re­ frigerator was advertised for sale atWoj)00. ($32,500).” He was up before the orderly officer, charged with using insulting language to his sergeant. "Please, sir," he protested. "I was only answering a question.” "What question?” snapped the officer. "Well, sir, the sergeant said, ‘What do you think I am?’ And I told him.** 10 lb. 29* Head*1^ 59* Each I Ontario Yell**5* | CORN 35* 2 lb. 19* Fka. 19# «- 25, ^.1 6 , LOB LAW 5 "SPECIAL" 29* CALIFORNIA JUICY L EM O NS AVAILABLE IN PLENTIFUL SUPPLY ONTARIO No. 1 Grad* Stake TOMATOES - 6 qt B..k*t ONTARIO SELECTED QUALITY C A W1T A I>9 U P E S Graded an!

Thenhe stood very still reflecting. Theremight be a fight; re-opening the d?or a crack, he pushed out thekey "Splendid." John whispered. After a second or two Alfred ad­vanced close to the bed. "Sir, sir,Mr Leiter, sir," “Hallo, what's that'" Fergus Lei­ter sat up instantly wide-awake.Switching on his bedside light, hestared up into Alfred's face. “Sir, she's gone back on us. MissHannan.

He could safely leave Fergusto the Inspector. They were onthe floor, the Inspector was on thetop."That'S all right." John's longlegs straddled the two. Putting hisfoot on one of Fergus' clawinghands, he clipped the handcuffs onthe other."You wait until I get hold ofyou." Suffocating with rage, Fer­ gus was trying to get at Alfred, whostood there gravely staring. Well, itwas all over; would Mr. Wynter sayhe had done well? No, not over yet.John, walking out into the hall,stood and looked down on Odette'ssmall felt cap She was leaningagainst the wall, her head bowed. Pole Star House, not a blessed sign.

Thesound of a plane;.about fifteen milesoff. his trained ear calculated swift­ly. They would be flying level inless than five minutes. Two wouldprobably break formation to comenearer in. He would wait for that."Yes, sir." Alfred clicked downthe light with one hand and slippedthe other under the pillow. Shak­ ing in every limb, his icy, trem­bling fingers closed on the pocket­book. He tiptoed back to the door,opened it a crack and pushed thepocketbook Into a waiting hand.“Who's opening the door?" Gosh!that had been a near shave. Al­fred had forgotten that an opendoor would make a draft.“No one, sir," said Alfred. “It’sshut as tight as tight since you toldme. It must be the wind getting up” . — ."Stay where you arc. They recoming back, it's not too late. God!that girl shall suffer for this.” Yes,they were coming back; a greatbig swarm of angry bees. Over theheaving sqa the sound came louderand louder. Ah. yes, here theywere, two of them coming in nearerto pick up his deadly message, theexact location of the exact militaryobjective.. Leaning far out lhe win­dow, Fergus began to wave historch frorm side to side. Nearer,'nearer, Alfred was mad with ex­citement."Heil Hitler!" He said the wordsto an excited, penetrating whisper. He slipped his hands under her cape and heard her cry out as thehandcuffs slipped from her wrists. "We've got him. Now. then. Ijust want you to identify him." Atorrent of abuse poured from Fer­ gus’ white mouth when he saw her."Can you identify this man?"John asked quietly."Yes.” Odette spoke firmly, forhis touch had told her what her tor­tured heart had been afraid to be­lieve. He did love her. "His name is Fergus Leiter.""Tell us anything that you knowabout him, briefly.""He sent me down here to conveymessages to Germany by signalsto passing aircraft. I am only oneof scores of women whom he hasmade work tor him in the sameway by promising them indulgences for their relations who are prison-ers in Germany. I tried to conveya message tonight, but . . ."Odettedropped her face in her hands. "That’s enough,” he said. "Now,then, Inspector, take him away andI’ll see you in the morning. Keephim safe and let me have his suit­cases. Tnanks to Cummins we al­ready have his pocketbook." To Al­fred he said, "You have done well,my boy.” “Thank you. sir." Alfred’s starryeyes were fixed on the man who hadgiven him the chance of his life. And then, somehow, all the ex­citement died down. Alfred let themall out and they got into the car. Asecond car had arrived into whichFergus was hustled with the In­spector. "How they do arrange things,”thought Alfred as he tumbled intobis bed. Perhaps he would hearmore tomorrow. After Mr. Wynter had finished hiswhispered conversation and goneaway. Grace had decided to dress and go downstairs. Something oddwas on foot, and she had a prettyshrewd idea of what it was. Notthat she was going to say, but onething would be* quite sure—whenMr. Wynter and Miss Hannan cameback they would want something toeat."Good heavens, I never knewsuch a woman!" While Odette stooddrooping under the hall light. Johnhad a whispered colloquy with Grace in the kitchen.”1 felt that you'd be hungry, sir.It’s in the sitting room and I man­aged to get the fire going again.”“Well. Grace, I have no words!”John went back into the hall andtaking her by the arm, he ledOdette into,the sitting room. Abright fire and two chairs drawn upclose to it. A small table Just theright height for the two low chairs."Did you ever?" he said. "Yes, she’s wonderful” Odette'svoice was flat and weary.“Cheer up."‘‘I'm all right" Now that it was M us, Miss Hannan” all over, Odette's temporary riseof spirits had died down again. Itwas finished; done with. She wouldhave to begin again; somewhereelse where she was not known. She >bowed her face in her hands and wished she were dead.'"Come.” John held out his arms.She had suffered enough, that wasquite certain, and the suffering wasnot yet over. She still had to giveevidence before a closed court inLondon. However, he would makethat as easy as he could for her,and the fact that she was his prom­ised wife would go a long way to make it very easy indeed.“A filthy spy? No you don't wantme there."•Try.""Na" She buried her face In herhands again. He hated to see heryellow head abased."Don't.""Don't what? It's my tum now toask questions." Odette’s voice was hard."Don't hang you head; it’s notlike you.”"How can I ever hold it upagain?”"As my wife. Easily," said Johncheerfully. He stood and watchedthe misery an her face merge intoincredulity. "As your wife?” “Of course. Haven’t I asked youbefore? No, I believe I haven't.Business first, you know." Hecaught her to him tn she flung outher hands. "You don’t believe it?Nonsense, Odette, don’t pretend. w You knew jt all the time." ' No, no . " didn’t . . . notthat; not you» ..Je. You can’tmean it. John, you can’t.” "But I do.” He took her facebetween his hands. "Poor littledarling.” he said, “you have had aheck of a time. But it's over now.That brute . , . that slimy brute islocked up." "John . . .” She spoke after along pause. "What about Alan?" "Alan? Well personally, I thinkyou can rely on the Bed Cross. Don’t let’s think about Leiter now."He kissed her hair as he pushedher down into her chair.“John . .“Presently,” said John. "Foodfirst and kisses afterward . . .You’ve had a long evening, so dowhat you’re told and get somethingwarm inside you." A few days later the Cornish Riv­iera Express, steaming majestical­ly out of Paddington, carried withit John Wynter, Odette Hannan andAlfred Cummins. But a glorifiedAlfred Cummins, radiant in a blueserge suit, overcoat and a hardhat—number E. 9 Western Cir­cuit. "He makes me laugh." Odette, ina ridiculously shaped new hat, wasstanding making up her face infront of the mirror in her first-classcompartment. "He'll make a good many peoplelaugh on the other side of theirfaces before he’s finished with it,”said John tumultuously. For John was ridiculously happy. AU hadgone well in London, and they wereon their way back to Battle Point.Miss Hannan, so far from being aspy, had done valuable work byhelping to round up someone whowas a spy and a very dangerousone at that. Fergus Leiter wouldvery probably be shot; in any eventthere was not the remotest chanceof his ever being free again. So John was happy. And so wasOdette, bewflderingly so. For there had been a letter from Alan to hermother in Geneva and a good manyof thetfi were about to be trans­ferred to Switzerland, above theLake of Geneva. So aU was goldenand beautiful, and having finishedher running repairs as John laugh­ingly termed them, Odette sat downopposite her lover and leaned herface on her hantj, and gazed out atthe spring landscape as the longtrain- fled by it. Lovely gray stonebouses cuddled among trees; whocould believe there was a wart. [THE END! BANNER The W, A. has arranged to hold a church service here on Sunday at11 a.m. Rev; L.

The number of colonies also showed an increase with 449,650 col­ onies in 1943 as against 427,050 in 1942—an increase of 22.600 or 5.3 per cent. The greatest expansion took place in the Prairie Provinces, espec­ ially in Alberta where there were twice as many beekeepers in 1943 as in 1942. with 42,800 colonies as compared with 27.500 in 1942. Prospects for the 1944 crop are reasonably satisfactory. Winter-kill­ ing on the whole was not serious and losses have been made up of package bees, and a further expansion in the number of beekeepers and colonies. Indications are that the numbers of colonies have been increased by about 7 per cent. With favourable weather, an average or better than average crop may be expected.
