THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNEThe Only Newspaper Published in Ingersoll
Ingersoll Fair Board
Showed Advancement
During Past Year
At the annual meeting of the Ing
ersoll, North and West Oxford
Agricultural Society, held on Satur
day afternoon, splendid reports were
presented. The financial statement
showed continued progress during
the year and it was also intimated
that there had been an increase in
exhibitors. Much more interest had
been manifested in the exhibition
than in previous years.
The financial statement showing a
fairly substantial surplus, was re
ceived with satisfaction, and was
adopted together with the auditors’
• report.
When the board for 1945 con-
- vened, Emerson Moulton, president,
who has served in that capacity for
many years, was re-elected.
During general discussion while
( the work of 1944 was being re
viewed, President Moulton was
■warmly congratulated on his ipitia-
five and untiring efforts. Apprccia-
• tion also was expressed of the ser
vices of secretary-treasurer Geo. F.
Janes and assistant secretary, Miss
Annie Moon.
The change in the finacial status
of the Society compared to that of
a few years ago, largely brought
about through adverse circumstances,
was regarded as most encouraging
and President Moulton was compli
mented for his leadership.
Reference was made by a number
of the members of the importance of
the Championship Holtein Show
held in conjunction with the Fair. It
was emphasized the show had been
a contributing factor to the success
achieved. It was stressed that fur
ther efforts should be made to have ■
the big Black and White Show held
in Ingersoll.
It was brought out during the
discussion that while the Fair last
year had been very successful, that
efforts should not be relaxed to make
the prize list more attractive to ex- 2hibitors and to continue to provide <
interesting entertainment for the j
spectators.
While there had been an increase 1
in exhibitors generally last year it ,
was mentioned that in some of the j
horse classes there had been a fall-’ ing off of entries despite the fact ‘
that the prizes had been increased. ,
This, it was explained, was evidently j
due to the fact that there had been j

A letter in appreciation of a pep
and pencil set from the Town of
Ingersoll to Sid Underwood, has
been received from LAC Douglas
M. Carr. His letter goes on to des
cribe conditions as he found them
at Christmas time in Holland, as fal
lows:
“Well Sid, another Christmas has
rolled by. It was much more pleas
ant too, than I had expected it would
be when we arrived here a few weeks
ago. We’ve made our home this time
in what used to be factory. We’ve
got the place cleaned up and glass
or cardboard in all the windows.
We entertained two hundred chil
dren of the village to a Christmas
party last Saturday afternoon. It
was really a big afternoon for them
and for once I saw youngsters over
here eat so much that they refused
to accept any more. We had a huge
decorated tree, and with toys and
games we bought in Belgium, and
and with the chocolate we saved

A memorial service for Pte. Cecil
Henderson, who made the supreme
sacrifice in Italy, Dec. 13th, 1944,
was held in the Pentecostal Taber
nacle, on Sunday, January 28th, at
11 a.m. Members of “D” Company,
Oxford Rifles, Canadian Legion and
Auxiliary attended.
After the opening exercises, the
paste*, Rev. R. Schwindt paid tribute
ta tly> deceased, who until the time
of his enlistment, had spent his life
time in Ingersoll. The pastor made
mention of the faithfulness of Pte.
Henderson in attending and taking
part in the services of the chujch,
having become a regular attendant
ut the Tabernacle over eight years
ago and on profession of faith was
baptized when Rev, P. H. Hawtin
was pastor. Mr. Schwindt said that
it was evident that Cecil Henderson
had won his way into the hearts of
many as everyone had the highest
praise for him. He was at all timeif
courteous, thoughtful, faithful, an
exemplary Christian character and a
gentleman in the truest sense of theword.
Excerpts from Pte. Henderson’s
last letter to th e pastor which in
cluded greetings to the members of
the assembly were read. Special men
tion was made of how the letters
received had on all occasions been a
real inspiration and blessing to the
recipient. The pastor stated further
that his faith was not fanatical, it
was practical.. He was not ashamed
of his religion and not only did he
“endure harness as a good soldier of
Jesus Christ’’, but also for King and
Country, and made the sacrifice not
grudgingly or even of necessity, but
willingly that Christian liberty might
be preserved. The pastor read a letter
of tribute from Rev. Hawtin who is
now in California.
After the tribute, a solo entitled,
“At th End of the Road”, was sung
by Mr, Percy James. Favorite num
bers of Pte. Henderson were sung
throughout the service. A chorus
entitled “Jesus Hold My Hand,” was
sung by John Cook and Percy James
with Mrs. Deacon as accompanist.
The text for the pastor’s address
was taken from 2 Timothy 4:7: “I
have fought a good fight, I have fin
ished my course, I have kept the
faith." In his sermon the pastor
pointed out.that the fight spoken of
in the text was the spiritual waifare
which God expects every true Chris
tian to wage against the powers of
darkness which assail the soul.
[—^After the address, Mr. John Cook

Rev. B. Bullock led the congregation

British chemists in the laboratories
of Imperial Chemical Industries
have evolved a new fibre. It is made
from ground-nuts, more popularly
known as monkey-nuts, and has the
soft, warm feeling of wool. The
material, known as Ardil, has been
ready for development since the be
ginning of the war but has been held
up.
It is hoped that Government
approval may soon be given for the
process to be developed in the Brit
ish textile industry.
Ardil is regarded not merely as a
substitute for wool, but as a com-
plementary fibre which may enable
lighter woollen fabrics to be made.
Added to cellulose, cotton, or rayon,
it gives the fabric a new resilience
and crease-resisting property besides
warmth.

BRITISH EQUIPMENT
Big overseas markets for modern
British agricultural equipment are
forecast for the postwar by Sir Miles
Thomas, leading motor industry ex
pert, writng in the London Financial
News. World agriculture as a whole,
writes Sir Miles, “is only at the be
ginning of mechanisation. During
the war the British industry has in
tensively developed the production of
agricultural equipment and statistics
clearly indicate that there is* ample
scope for further developments to
satisfy overseas needs.Machinery that is designed for
the relatively small British farms
should also stand a good chance in
competition on the Continent of Eur
ope, where the farming conditions
approximate more c' ' *’
the British Isles than they do to the
wide open spaces of the Americas.’’

UNTQLD NEED IN RUSSIA' IS INCENTIVE TO
‘ SEND Aliy
A plea 'to Ontario women to sup
port the winter clothing drive of the
Canadian Aid to Russia Fund was
expressed recently by Mrs. Albert
E. Matthews, wife of Ontario's lieu
tenant-governor, who has lent her
patronage to the drive.
“As the'call comes for Russian re
lief we know it’is to the Christian
countries the world looks for help,
and . that we Canadians should be
eager and ready to respond. In Rus
sia .there is untold need and for us
is the incentive' oDdecp 'gratitude
to that great people fi>F the inestim

have given 'the cause of freedom.

A Showing of Russian Movies <
Recently the Soviet Ambassador '
to Canada arranged a private show
ing of three Russian films. One was
a musical film, comparable superfic
ially to Hollywood’s many films of m
the “Stage Door” type; featured t
were two actors who hold the coveted j
title, “Honored Artists of the Re- 1
public.” The second was “No Greater <
Love”, a story of peasant partisans ‘
fighting behind the German-lines; it j
was a stark, realistic play and, like ;
most modern Russian movies, made 1
no attempt to glamorize or dramatize ’
essential motives and actions. (But it was the third—the news- <
reel—that gripped the audience in
tense concentration, for it showed '
actual pictures of the liberation of '
Tarnopol. For the first time I rea
lized what lay behind the official
bulletins which say, “There was
street fighting, and mopping-up oper
ations continue.” • These pictures
taken by cameramen who made no
attempt to stay in the safe areas,
showed what “mopping-up” a city
really means: The many kinds of
artillery used; the techniques of
getting entrance to a house and
occupying it. The most exciting
scene was taken from a window just
' across the street from a house which
! had been used as German head-
’ quarters. A Russian soldier managed
’ to get on to one of the balconies;
’ first he threw a grenade into the
? room, then with an efficient little
5 machine-gun, sprayed the room
through the window without expos-1
ing himself. Then he went through
l the window himself, followed| others, and they went systematically

Hello Homemakers! Liver and
similar meat specialties are due for
the spotlight. They are bargains in
health as well as economy. Usually
these pieces are cheaper than most
other meats since there is so much
less bone, gristle and shrinkage.
There is a fair supply of liver, sweet
breads, tripe and heart available.
Packed with health builders, liver
easily provides your daily need of
iron—the mineral which riutritionisis
agree is the hardest to get adequately
in the diet. Also they contain large
amounts of other minerals and pro
tein, and a wealth of vitamin A, and
Bl, as well as riboflavin and niacin.
“But what good is all this food
value unless eaten?” you may say.
To be really delicious, care should
be taken in the steps of preparation.
Take a Tip
1. Remove skin and tough fibres
by scalding and loosening with a
sharp knife.
2. Zestful seasonings are impor
tant. Marinating (letting stand in
tart seasoned liquid) in lemoq juice,
vinegar, tomato juice, or sour cream
enhances the delicate but distinctive
flavours.
3. Grinding makes pork liver
more acceptable for some tastes.
4. Making meat balls, stews, cas
seroles will add goodly amounts of
extra food values.
5. Too high heat toughens meat
organs. Cook slowly in moist heat—
braising, stewing, baking are recom
mended methods.
Tripe with Onions
Preparing Tripe—Tripe is usually
sold in the city markets already
cleaned. If not so obtainable, wash
well through several boiling waters,
then put in cold water and let soak
over night
Stewed with Onipm
2 pounds tripe.
2 onions
Salt and pepper
1 cup hot milk
Butter
Simmer the tripe and onions in
salted water for three or four hours.
Drain. Chop the cooked onions very
fine, place them in hot milk and
season wth salt, pepper and butter.
t*our this over the tripe and serve
at once.
Pork Liver with Rice
1 pound pork liver .
1-4 pound sliced bacon
1-2 cup rice
Declaring that the church hasan enormous part to play in postwar world reconstruction, the MostRev. Derwyn Trevor Owen, Archbishop of Toronto and primate ofCanada, arrives in Los Angeles,Calif., to attend the 50th anniififr-sary convention of the Episcopal
diocese of Los Angeles.
3 tbsps. chopped parsley
2 or 3 sliced carrots
2 sliced onions
Salt and pepper
Fry the liver with the bacon until
brown, then add the rice which has
been soaked in water for one-half
hour. Cover with hot water or stock,
add the parsley, carrots and onions,
wilt and pepper. Simmer slowly until
tender, about forty minutes.
Stewed Kidney*
3 cups veal or beef kidneys
2 bay leaves
1-2 lemon
Salt and pepper
2 tbsps. flour
2 tbsps. butter or other fat.
Split the kidneys and cut out the
hard white substances and fat from
the centre. Wash them well and soak
for three >r four hours in cold water,
changing the water as soon as it be-
■ comes cl< udy. Then put the kidneys
into u granite pan, add enough
water to cover them and heat slowly.
When just at the boiling-point, pour
oil the hot water and again just cover
then) with cold water, once more
heating slowly and again changing
the water when hot. Change the
water in this way three times, then
simmer (twenty minutes for small
kidneys; forty minutes for a beef
kidney.) Set away to cool. If the

The youngsterswere really thrilled. One little girlhad received a box of beads, and hermother who speaks some English,told me that her daughter had beenwanting beads for two years, butthat she had been unable to buythem for her in Holland.After dinner on Christmas Day,I walked into the village to see whatit looked like in daylight Your heartwould ache for these people. Of the
buildings left there are very few
that have not boarded-up windows, or
shell holes through the walls. Nearly
every wall is scarred and chipped
from shell fragments. Piles of rubble
are everywhere. Several white
crosses mark the spots along the
main street where brave Englishmen
fell and their helmets hang from
the crosses. On the other side of a
hedge and on the lawn of what must
have been a magnificent house, is a
cross with the words, "A German
Soldier.” The church is only a shell.
The steeple has been knocked off,
but enough of it remains to hold up
the face of one of the four clocks
that used to adorn it. The contrast
to the unlocked doors of a Roman
Catholic church, a sign now forbids
anyone to enter because of the dan
gerous condition of the building. The
village windmill is also out of order,
and its four big blades are still and.
silent. As J returned to camp, it was
interesting to watch the white vapor
trail of a home-bound plane changing
color in a beautiful winter sunset
sky.

RED CROSS WAR WORKREPORT FOR 1944In submitting this fifth annualreport, I would express sincereappreciation for the loyal co-operation of every Unit and Group, everyindividual worker, who assisted inany way during the year that ispassed. It was your effort, your fineknitting and sewing, that has madeour shipments to headquarters possible. Our special thanks to the warwork conveners in each group whohave done such splendid work indistributing and collecting the knitting and sewing, they have carried
on in good weather and some that
was extremely bad, and it has been
a great pleasure to meet them each
Friday afternoon at the Red Cross
rooms.
We would also thank all those who
have' donated various articles—beau
tiful quilts, lovely layettes, knitted
articles for the services and for
civilian use, toys and games, and
other things too numerous to men
tion. These all made a very valuable
and welcome addition to shipments
for overseas. Each month a complete
list of donors and articles donated
has appeared in the papers and have
been gratefully acknowledged by
Miss Coventry.
The Junior Red Cross is doing a
splendid work, as well as assisting
their own organization, they com
pleted several girls’ outfits, outfits
for younger boys nnd girls and other
articles. This work was shown at a
tea held in the Memorial School and
later brought to us for shipment to
headquarters.
The rooms are in use -Monday
through to Friday each week and to
every one who assists in any way,
cutting, giving out wool, inspect
ing and repairing and shipping, we
would express our deep appreciation.
The following ladies are in charge
Cutting, Mrs. Byron Jenvey and Mrs.
James Tattersall Wool; Mrs. A. P.
Gundry nnd Mrs. M. Turner; Ship
ping, Mrs. Austin Granger and Mrs.
E. Neill.
•Conforming to W.T.P.B. regula
tions, our purchases of w’ool and
materials had to be made from Head
quarters, locally we purchased pat
terns, notions, etc. Following the
new quota system,' only the articles
asked for were made and wool and
materials were made available when
quotas were accepted. All purchases
were approved for payment by the
Executive Committee and will be
contained in the report of the
Treasurer.
It is the subscriptions of the citi
zens of Ingersoll, through the War
Charities, and those from the Rural
Units, which have made our work
possible. We sincerely thank all for
their generous support and hope it
will be continued through the newyear.Delegates from this Branch attended the annual meeting and receivedmuch information that was both interesting and helpful. A special meeting for war work conveners washeld the day .preceding the annualmeeting, this was very informal anddifficulties and problems which seemed common to all Branches werethoroughly discussed and solutionsarrived at.Though figures are not very interesting in any report, we feel thatmany would like to know the numberof articles sent out by this Branchduring the year. Each month a detailed statement has appeared in theSentinel-Review and The Tribune,
bo this report will sum up the list
under a few headings:
Knitted wear for all Services,
2296 articles; Civilian Comforts,
3016 articles; Hospital Comforts,
273 articles; Greek Relief, 486
articles; blankets, quilts and knitted
afghans, 279; Comfort bags, (6), 72
articles; special articles for service
men, 32; special articles for Blood
Donors’ Clinic, 54; smocks to Alex
andra Hospital for Nurses’ Aides, 6.
To the Ingersoll Tribune nnd to
the Sentinel-Review, we would ex
press our sincere appreciation for
the space given each month to our
shipping reports and the lists of don
ations. In this way we have tried to
keep everyone informed of what the
Red Cross was doing in our locality.
To the business firms who have
been kind enough to keep us sup
plied with shipping cartons, our
tfflinks.
To Mrs. Byron Jenvey, our assist
ant war work convener, my personal
thanks for all the problems and re
sponsibilities she has shared with
me during the year.
The war is far from won, this fight
for freedom must still go on, and we
who fight on the horn* front mast
fight on too. To relax our efforts,
now that victory is in sight, might
be fatal. We must maintain and
continue our efforts with unflagging
zeal, the need is very great and will
only be met by each one of us doing
all we can to aid all those who are
suffering in defense of right and
freedom.
Respectfully submitted,
(Mrs. James) Ethel Malcolm
War Work Convener.

been gripped with the thought what
would they be like 20 years hence.
Would they grow up according to a
plan. He considered they deserved
the best that could be offered and
that the community w'ould expect
the best they could give.
In a broad sense he rapped indif
ferent members of all clubs who
were not gripped by responsibilities
to do something worthwhile and re
ferred to them as being Only “join
ers.” He emphasized the necessity of
the Christian spirit to overcome
crime and delinquency. He also
urged that work should be done for
prevention and that community life
be planned'so there would always beplenty to do.
The speaker said he -objected, to
children being tatored undsa^rivil-
eged as there alys were over-privil
eged ones. He suggested that where
tfork in this respect was-being done
that it be designated for worthy
children. It also was suggested by
the speaker that in,community plan
ning it should be on the principle of
greatest good for the greatest
number.
The speaker also suggested a
council qf social agencies to discuss
problem* thaj called for co-ordina
tion for efforts on the j>»rt of the
respective clubs. . ‘
Anfong further srugestlona were:
A community, camp, a community
playground, a community employed
boy’* club, a teen age canteen, a
community night once a year for the
families of* the boys and girls, a
juvenile court, expand the “Y”
work, obtain the beat school teachers
available and pay them accordingly,
pay’ .more attention to the children
of servicemen and the men returning
from the secyice*.
■“ In closing he .said, “we must not
do thing* for the youth of this com
munity, but with them. Don’t give
them anything for nothing. It would
be unfortunate if'this war were won
on the- battlefields and lost in the
communities.”
The appreciation of the gathering
was expressed to FO. Connell by, R-G Start.

Letters.to the
Editor
Ottawa, 25th January, 1945
The Editor,
“Ingersoll Tribune”,
Ingersoll, Ontario.
In a recent letter to your paper,
Eveline A. Long implies that a
change in our form of government,
the acceptance of the doctrine of
Karl Marx, would solve our problem
of unej^gloyment.
The1-greatest living authority on
unemployment's I presume, Sir Wil
liam Beveridge. In his recent book,
“Full Employment in a Free So
ciety”, he states very definitely that
the remedies for unemployment can
be applied and carried out as readily
in a capitalist economy as in a social
ist state.
I quote direct from page 206 of
the report: ' -

are neither socialism nor an alternative to. socialism: they are required and will work undercapitalism and under socialismalike, and whether the sector ofindustry conducted by privateenterprise is large or is small.”
So much for that. Mr. Beveridge
also points out something which I
think is becoming increasingly
obvious to even the meanest intelli
gence. The constant tendency of
labor to force up rates beyond the
capacity of the economy to bear
may compel some measure of re
straint upon wages. Mr. Beveridge
put it this way:
“Particular wage demands whichexceed what employers are ableto pay with their existing pricesand which force a raising ofprices, may bring gains to theworker* of the industry con-,cerned, but they will do so at theexpense of. all other workers.
whose real wages fall owing tothe rise in prices. I
After all the problems presented
by Eveline A. Long cannot be solved
by bringing up the doctrine* of Kart
Marx, nor can it be helped by ex
pressions of sympathy, no matter
how profound.
This is an economic problem, it
involves th study of hard, economic
facta. The passion for, a particular
Party with theoretical solutions,
which are practically impossible, ia
not the remedy which is likely to
receive the consideration of thought
ful people.

Bonspiel next Friday.
That the year f<*44 had been a“Red Letter Year” in the parish ofSt. James’ Anglican Church, was the
consensus of opinion of nearly 200
members of the congregation who
were in attendance at the 111th
annual vestry meeting held on Mon
day evening in the parish hall. The
meeting which was presided over by
the rector, Rev. H., E. Merifield,

ner hour and later in the evening F.
Heath Stone led in a jolly sing song,
and chorus, with Miss Parker presid
ing at the piano.
Mr. A. E. Izzard, Secretary-Treas
urer of the church gave a brief re
port of the activities of the various
organizations of the parish, which
had raised about $6,000 during the
year. Mr. Izzard also pointed out
that in the maintenance accounts
the receipts were over $13,000 with
a balance on hand. A canvas of the
parish is to be undertaken in an
effort to increase the number of
envelope holders to ensure more
sound financing In the report of mis
sions, it was shown that the sum of
$1,214 was remitted to the Synod.
The auditors’ report was given by
Mr. F. G. Rich.
Mr. William Street, the people's
warden, gave a detailed report on the
new equipment and articles of furn
iture given by members of the parish,
for which Mr. Roy Owen expressed
thanks to the congregation.
A special tribute to the work of
the Secretary-Treasurer, Mr, A. E.
Izzard, was expressed by Mr. W. F.
Newell.

The instructors for this Laputanbusiness were taken from the enlisted personnel—fine, kind-heartedmen for the most part Amongthem, however, were scattered afew asps. The title of instructorraised the sailor to temporary authority over the cadets who as commissioned officers would soon crackthe whip themselves. The opportunity was too good to be missed. Iwon’t way that Machinist’s MateBriggs, to whom I was assigned,abused the privilege. Rather helived on it.His welcoming blast was, “Inpeacetime you couldn’t get into theNavy.”I muttered something about going fishing In peacetime and per

“Don’t look like you're listenin’ tome.” he said sullenly.“I am.”"You’re all alike. You don’t wantto learn. I stand here and talk mybloody heart out. and I never founda cadet yet who listened. Jeez,when I think how the calyouber ofofficers has dropped lately, I wonder if we’ll pull through Well, itain't tor me to questfon.

It was hot

over my head."You don’t sound calm,” said
Briggs, and before I was quiteready he turned on the electricity."Hey!” I shouted.“Keep calm in there,” called,Briggs. "Remember the standardclimb is five hundred feet a minute. Watch your instrument”I looked at the instruments. Theyseemed to be watching me.

Coincldent with that crushing an
nouncement the light on the instrument panel went out, leaving me incomplete darkness. For a minuteI hung peacefully suspended andundisturbed between two worlds.Then for no reason an image ofthe hellfire-and-brimstone sign thatstood for years on a familiar roadat home issued up where the instrument pane) had been. I opened andclosed my eyes. It was pitcb-black,
but the image of that sign stayedand grew brighter and larger untilthe red painted message filled toeentire cockpit.THE WORLD IS COMING TO ANEND. ARE YOU READY?The letters flowed filmily over me.I felt a giddy detachment. It didn'tmatter any more. The flight thatwas not a flight didn't matter, andthe crash that was not a crashdidn't matter. According to scienceI waz whirling eight hundred feetunderground, but what the hell! Ifyou don’t understand your environment, go beyond it I picked up
the microphone and called to Briggsin a low, pulsing voice: “The worldis coming to an end. Axe youready?”
’111 be damned!" said Briggs."Tell Buck and Wilma.” I wenton."Buck who?” cucd Briggs, coming face to face with his first albatross."Buck Rogers in the twenty-fifthcentury," I blared.
Briggs quickly snapped off thepower and let me out. I started to -apologize ,fcr my poor showing, but marked,then I thought better of it I walked ’ “ *pff wijhout a word. Briggs juststood and stared. What he had witnessed would never be spoken ofwith Lindbergh's crossing or Amelia's feats, but he was well awareit had a significance of its own. Henever mentioned it again as long asI was there.When I got to the point where Icould keep the Instruments underthumb, Briggs took a deep breathand proceeded to explain the basicprinciples of the radio range.

impermanence. "There was a bigshake-up last winter."I was never taken behind thescene, but I imagine that when Roger went, he dragged a lot of bignames down with him.The day I had my radio check Iwas particularly alert. Even themost complex features of the rangestood out clearly in my mind. Itwas the insight that comes once in alifetime. Briggs gave me an easyproblem, and I sailed through thefirst part."Corpus Christi radio from Navyone-twenty. I have orientated myself in the southern N quadrant andam proceeding to intersect your

The White Paper on Britain’s
War Effort shows how the character
of British Feeding has changed;
there is less meat and bacon, eggs,
fish, sugar, fruit; more cheese, flour,
potatoes and milk (though the latter
is primarily a priority for cluld and
mother consumers). Meat was an
important source of protein (a body
building substance), but so are flour,
potatoes, cheese and milk. The most
important from the view point of the
daily work is the calorie (energy
unit) content. In the average con
sumption for the principal foodstuffs
before the war, and iff 1943 the sup
ply of calories has been maintained,
losses have been balanced by gains
(for example 1.200 calories less a
week in sugar have been replaced by
1,200 more in flour; -butter minus
1,180 has been replaced by margar
ine plus 560. cheese plus 110, liquid
and dried milk, plus 480; in fresh
meat and bacon 'minus 780 which
was replaced by frotatoes plus 780.)
Vitamins are provided by fresh veg
etables which, like potatoes and
bread are unrationed; vitamins A
and D are also added to wartime
margarine to make it the full equiv
alent of butter; Vitamin Bl is added
to the national (white flour) loaf to
make it the equivalent of whole meal
bread. Children obtain fruit juice
(vitamin C) and codliver oil (vita
mins A and D). Thus, although
changes in the diet have been neces-
__ sitated by war stringency, these have
‘‘Thjak been effected without detriment to

can only be achieved when imports
of meat and fruit regain (or exceed)
prewar quantities.

THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, FEB 1, 1945OTTAWAWEEK BY WEEK— By Dean Wilton —-Behind the present sudden blastof flurry in the Federal politicalarena there have been startling ear-to-the-ground reports in Ottawa ofpolitics in wartime. During the pastseveral weeks serious stories havebeen circulating backstage in thisnation’s capital that, in spite of persistent claims that army reinforcements overseas have been adequatelyfilled, yet great rising and fallingwaves of political oratory have beensweeping across the country eversince the reinforcement crisis of lastfall. Indeed, at the same time as thegrim, furious battles of bullets werebeing fought on the bitter cold warfronts abroad, tumultuous, undula-
tory war of words were being con
tinued here at home. It seemed only
logical that ballots would have to
settle the big persistent disputes in
this nation just as bullets would have
to decide the much bigger persever
ing issues in the world.
In this regard, it was said that
the trips overseas of no less than
topranking authorities were connect
ed possibly with the strenuous efforts
of the Government to solve the over- :
seas manpower issue or to counteract
any controversial criticisms of man
power policy. These included the
appointment of Lt.-Gen. Ernest San
som as inspector-general to survey [
and to co-ordinate such movements'
of re-iuforcemcnts overseas, the dis
cussions overseas of Air Mauhal |
Robert Leckie, Chief of Air Staff,
and the trip abroad for consultations
of Navy Minister Macdonald who has
not only acted as Air Minister until
recently, but who has had duties to
perform at times in the Defence Min
istry in helping Defence Minister
McNaughton when the latter was
arduously engaged in official work
as well ns political campaigning in
Grey North by-election contest.
Moreover, it was opined in some
circles on Parliament Hill that there
was a possible belief that a critical
attitude of the Government’s policy
on reinforcements might Fhave been
expected from opposing parties, particularly after several top-rankingmen of the Progressive-Conservativeparty, including the leader, Hon.John Bracken, had returned to Canada following the gathering of "onthe spot” information abroad.orally accepted that Canada had already overseas over 800,000 volunteers and 7,800 draftee desertenwere only a relatively small proportion, though there has been noattempt to minimize the importanceof such absenteeism from the armyat this time.

FEVERISH ACTIVITIESThe fervent tempo of Canada'swar exertion at this momentoustime can be seen by the man-in-thc-street in the disclosure of the increase of feverish activities in Ottawa where the pulse has been quickened to its highest point possible inthis war. This can be perceived inthe dreadful overcrowding in thecapital at this time and the report
that the Shelter Administrator here,
James A. Robertson, has been
allowed a relatively free hand short
of compulsory billeting in the des
perate attempt to find ways and
means of solving the capital's excess
ive accommodation shortage. In fact,
stories huve inferred that some of
the schemes which may possibly be
used to relieve the most unusual situ
ation may include shifting armed
service personnel elsewhere if these
are not absolutely essential in the
capital, forbidding new families from
moving into the nation’s capital, and
such other drastic measures. The
[extent of the changes in the capital
I of Canada can be seen in the dis-
'c’osure tht in 1939 the population in
CONFERENCE IS WANTEDAccording to a story heard inOttawa, it appears that there is ageneral desire across Canada for anearly Dominion-Provincial Conference, with one report stating thatpressure has been put forward forsuch 9 gathering to be held soon.However, it must be pointed outPremier King has already said thatno such conference should take placeuntil after the next general election.Then again, there has been on officialconfirmation of another report thatseveral Provincial Premiers had helda meeting lately for the purpose ofurging such a gathering, though this

I From time to time rumours gain
strong headway of one or another
article said to be about to be
[rationed and this spreads across the
'country with alarming alacrity,,
bringing the usual most undesirable
results and forcing the officials in
Ottawa to issue denials of these
false stories. This hns been the case
i which has caused the latest official
denial to be given in Ottawa about
the unfounded rumour that tea and
coffee would be restricted or rationed
severely shortly, with the indication
that there were in reality ample
supplies in ‘Canada of both of these
commodities to take care of all nor
mal needs. Another such rumour has
claimed that footwear would be
rationed in Canada but in this case
too there has been no known auth
ority in Ottawa for such a story. In
short, it has appeared to be nothing
but an absolutely unfounded rumour.
MAYORS MAKE REQUEST
Several members of the. Canadian
Federation of Mayors and Municipal
ities held a meeting in Ottawa lately
with Finance Minister Ilsley and
Reconstruction Minister Howe and
these mayors niude a number of im
portant requests, including a demand
that the city and province should be
allowed to put up the 10 per cent of
the capital for low rental housing]
projects under the Housing Act
where the Dohunion Government ■
contributes 90 per cent. The Minister
of Finance, Hon. J. L. Ilsley, refused]
to consent to thi« suggestion and he
said that the Federal Government]
would demand that this 10 per cent;
of the capital co«, must be private I
capital so that these corporations'
would not be wholly public. It was
Uilso disclosed at this meeting that
municipalities would have priority
in the purchase of A.R.P. equipment,
such as pumps, rubber coats, hoses,
etc., which are now owned by the
Federal Government.. The Ministers
assured the delegates that consider
ation would be given to the suggest
ion that the Canadian Federation of
Mayors and Municipalities should be
allowed representation at the next
Dominion-Provincial Conference and
that the question of the exemption
of crown properties from taxation as
well as taxation of the Canadian
National Railways should also be
dealt with at such a gathering.

ABSENTEE DRAFTEES

are being taken to round up as well

serter if he has been abent-for more
than. 21 days in Canada. An indica

BARN AND CONTENTS
DESTROYED BY FIRE
A large new bam and all contents,
owned by Ernest Sandick and Son of
North Oxford, was completely des
troyed by fire, Thursday morning..
The lack of wind and the assistance
of 14 hard-working neighbours re
sulted in saving the house, garage
and henhouse.
In addition to the loss of the buil
ding just built last year, losses in
clude 30 head of cattle, three
horses, a number of hogs ready for
market, a number of young hogs, all
grain,' hay and implements. The loss
is partially covered by insurance.
The fire was discovered by Mrs.
Sandick between 2 and 3 a.m." Four
teen neighbors responded to the

ATTENDED SERVICE
Attending the evensong service at
St. James’ Anglican Church on Sun
day last in a body, members of the
newly formed A.Y.P.A. of the parish,
listened to a splendid sermon by the
rector, Rev. H. E. Merifield, in which
he urged the young people to live up
to the splendid motto of the assoc
iation, “For Christ and the Church”,
and compare it with the diabolical
inspiration given to Hitler youth.
Jack Smith and Ken Johnston,
members of the A.Y.P.A., read the
lessons and during the offertory
Edwin Long, president of the society,
rendered the beautiful solo, “The
Publican.”

After the opening with the
National Anthem, Miss Fern Goodi
son gave tin explanation of the
show saying that with the shortage
of fabrics such as rayon, linen and
silk, we must make our old clothes
do by remaking them. Even though
there is no shortage of wool, there
is shortage of labor. Miss Goodison
went on to say that all the costumes
of the “review” were made over from
partly worn clothes, or outgrown
garments.
Miss Lorraine Redhead announced
the "high lights” of each outfit as the
girls modelled. Mildred Mansfielfl
modelled an attractive school jum
per with a detachable bib. Another
