You’ve often watched the teller stamp
your cheque. Every day, in every branch of
every bank in Canada, cheques are being
scrutinized, stamped and reeprded. During
the war years, this daily flow of cheques
through your bank has swollen to a torrent.
Deposit accounts are more numerous and
active than ever before. This increase re
flects the tremendous activity of Canadian
life and business. Production, purchases
and payrolls have all reached record levels.

T H EHello Homemakers I In these busytimes many of us have added the
“lunch box” to our daily tasks;
others find themselves preparing two
or three every day instead of one.
The lunch box is an important
responsibility-—on it depends to a
large extent the energy and effic
iency of the school child or war
worker. •
Therefore it must be made both
nourishing and attractive. Here are
a few suggestions to accompany a
thermos of soup, cocoa, tea or coffee,
on these chilly days.

I have several Tribunes put awayin my locker and when time permitsI read them over again, there isnothing like seeing the names andaddress of most of the folks oneknows and in a small town naturallythat interest is strengthened as youfeel you know almost everybody.Lately I have met a few Ingersollboys over here and they also tell methe news they know and vice-versa.It’s surprising what a small worldthis really is.Donald Shaddock.
The letter from Jim (Nip) Hen
derson speaks extensively of hockey
ns it pertains to Ingersoll and is
hoping to be able to participate here
next winter. He speaks optimistic
ally for the safety of Tommy Daniel
and of his having spent Christmas
with him. He says he feels sure that
both he and “Danny” will be home
for next winter’s hockey activities at
the Ingersoll Arena. “Just have the
feeling that “Danny” is safe and
know I'm right."
A letter received this week by the
Tribune speaks of the value of the
home town paper. In part the letter
follows:
“It is time I thanked you for the

We are in oneof the more intact houses and havea substantial basement in which tosleep. We have left the comfort ofelectric lights and running water inHolland."L/Corp.

On Friday evening, a most attractive and largely attended concert wasgiven at Trinity United Church, itbeing the Spring Festival, an annualprogram presented by the JuniorChoir, under the direction of MissRuth Cuthbertson, which proved adelight to hear.The setting was very lovely, alarge screen flanked by birch treescleverly painted, was placed at theback, while in front of the choirloft white lilies and forsythia addedbeauty to the completed plan. Much
credit is due Mrs. G. W. Colmer for
her artistry in designing and paint
ing the screen. Mrs. George Bartlett
as convener of the decorating com
mittee, assisted Mrs. Colmer in pro
ducing the effective background.
Rev. R, H. Parr opened the very
interesting program by introducing
Miss Cuthbertson and the pianist,
Mrs. O. B. Moffatt, also the little
girls who comprise the octette of
bell-ringers of Hamilton, fcho were
under the direction of Miss M. E.
Finlayson.
The program presented by the
Junior Choir in its annual appear
ance, has at all times brought out a
very large following of interested
friends,. which fact gives encourage
ment to those who sponsor the choir
activities. The display of the techni
cal ability and tonal resources of
such young singers is amazing and
their response, and might we add
their deportment, was also, indeed
worthy of favorable comment
The wee tots adding their bit to
the ensemble, were the fairies. They
were Brian Chamberlain as the
prince, Judy Beth Douglas as the
princess; David Muir as a shepherd
and Mary Kay Horton as the shep
herdess. They were all adorable and
looked much like, lovely models in
Royal Doulton.
An outstanding number always a
pleasure to hear was the piano and
organ offering of Mrs. O. B. Moffatt
nnd Mr. Harold Riddolls. It was in
deed beautifully presented. The
arrangement of “Swing Low, Sweet
Chariot”, by Mrs. Moffatt, was very
tuneful and congratulations are due
her for this added accomplishment
to that of a pianist.
The finale was certainly very
effective and attractive in its entir
ety. Twelve young ladies dressed as
angels, filled in the space behind the
screen and' through a hazy blue at
mosphere presented a beautiful pic
ture. Miss Mabel Clark was the guest
soloist in this number, contributing
he}- clear soprano voice to its
success.
We should ado our congratulations
to Miss Ethelwyn Daniel and Miss
Jean Daniel, guest conductor and
piano accompanist respectively, for
their clever performance in the
third number.
The pell Ringers of Hamilton,
appeared here two years ago and
made many friends for .their work
in their various numbersL—Xhey are
very young musicians and'TiitUtheir
numbers very well. It is an unusual
presentation and a pleasing one and
in their second visit to the church
received a kindly welcome.
Fallowing the concert, the choir
and assisting artists were entertainedT
in the schoolroom with refreshments
served by the choir mother, Mra.
Lloyd Brown and her committee.
The music committee is composed
of A. F. Carr, W. L. ThurteU; R. B.

JOHN IA1ATT HAITI 8l«U<* CaaaO.
Better use of Canada’s surplus
wildlife was discussed at a recent
wildlife conference held in Ottawa,
where it was emphasized that, in
reducing wildlife poulations in any
manner, wastefulness should be
avoided,
It was pointed out that at present
full use is made of very little of the
big game shot by hunters in Canada,
with the result that a large quantity
of the finest leather and meat is
left to rot in -the. woq^s. When ,a
deer or moose is killed, in many
cases only the head and a' few choice
cuts of meat are saved.
In addition there is a regrettable
waste of wildlife fatally wounded
but never recovered, caused .by poor
shooting, shooting beyond the proper
range and lack of a retriever. An
other, and one of* the most devastat
ing causes, of wastage of/wildlife, is
fire. With the approach of spring it
is an opportune time to remind all
who are interested in the preser
vation of wildlife that every possible
care should be taken in the use of
fire in the' woods or on open spaces.
In the not very distant future thefull use of all the natural resoudcea
may be necessary to provide the
maximun employment and support
the maximum human population in
Canada. The waste or wanton dea-
truction of any Of»thee resources
may have serious effect on Canada's
ability to rehabilitate successfully
her ex-Serviee men and women and
war workers. It is felt that now is
the time to develop methods of
avoiding waste and planning greater
conservation of these resource*,
among which wildlife, intelligently
managed, has a definite value to the
well-being of the Canadian people.
The importance of Canada’s wild
life resources in the postwar period
was stressed by many delegates
attending this conference. When It
ta remembered that more than
on more than half of the area it is1
still the chief crop, > it is quite
apparent that this resource is going
to provide an important item in
long-term development following the
war.
Wildlife values in respect to fur
trade, the tourist and sporting trade
are permanent, and renewable, if
managed wisely. No doubt many ex
Service men will find helpful and
gainful employment after the war in
such occupations as guides for ang
lers and hunters, outfitters, game
wardens, wildlife research workerrf
and conservationists. Many of those
engaged in other pursuits will wish
to find their relaxation, in hunting
and fishing—or just studying wild
creatures in their native haunts in
an atmosphere of peace, far removed
from the turmoil of war. Wildlife
can also be made ohe of Canada’s
chief tourist attractions,
which adds up to the* need for care
ful husbandry and intelligent man
agement of this important resource.
At the present time hundreds of
thousands of muskrats are being
trapped for their valuable pelts.
Most trappers realize that the dressed
carcass has a definite market value
as food. If proper methods of dress
ing and handling this important
source of wild meat supply were,
more generally known, the use ,of
the muskrat as a food might increase
rapidly. A leaflet containing more
than w dozen recipes for cooking
muskrat moat haj been issued by the
Department of Mines and Resources
at Ottawa, with the object of .in
creasing the consumption and redu
cing the enormous wastage of thia
palatable little "Marsh Rabbit”, as
it is sometimes called.'' •

Make-Up and Be Young IClever makeup tricks can keep theyears from catching up with anywoman. Here are some tips designedto camouflage tiny age marks:(1), If skin is dull or sallow, giveit a healthy glow by mixing a littlecream rouge with your foundationcream. (2) Keep face relaxed. Avoidany tendency to tighten or pursethe lips. If lips are thin, apply lipstick with a brush, carrying makeup carefully out to corners of mouth.(8) To disguise crevices of linesaround eyes, use a lighter foundationon this part of the face Also, use alighter powder or foundation atedges of mouth if corners tend todroop down. ,(4) Keep your skinyoung and fresh by daily whipped
cream lather, facials with your fav
ourite complexion soap; use skin
creams and lotions regularly. (5)
Brush hair faithfully a hundred
strokes a day; brighten it with one
or two professional tints or rinses at
a good beauty salon. (6) To avoid
the bracket that forms from nose
to mouth—don’t sing your favourite
song—whistle it! This puffs out
cheeks, gently exercises ’ facialmusles.
Thus you save precious momentaspent in dampening clothes, plus timeand electricity used in getting rid ofthe excess moisture. ‘Dry ironing*works well with sheets, aprons, pyjamas, slips and other flat pieces.
'Dry. Ironing’ Save* Time
Sit down to iron, is our tip to the
busy housewife who wants to save
time on ironing day. A comfortable
chair or stool while ironing prevents
that back-ache later. See that your
ironing board is covered with a thick,
resilient pad and neat-fitting cover
that can be removed for regular dip
pings in extra-soapy suds. A skimpy
covering leaves a shine on pressed
articles. Next, try ‘dry’ ironing
which simply means taking the
clothes off the line before they are
bone dry. Then fold lightly, cover
with a heavy-towel or rubber sheet
ing until time for them to be ironed.
Make Linoleum LastManufacturers tell us that wrongcare—not actual use—is the mostfrequent cause of linoleum wearingout; yet if waxed and cleaned properly, it will give you years of service. Wash linoleum with lukewarmwater and pure sunny-yellow barsoap. Rinse with clear cold water.Soap left to dry on linoleum, remember, takes off some of the surface. In yashing, wring out the mopor cloth, and wash and rinse a small
section of the floor at a time. Don’t
soak your floor covering—this weak
ens it After washing and rinsing,
wipe dry. Never use strong soap on
linoleum, the alkali makes it brittle
and faded. And don’t go after dirt
with scouring powders, you’ll scratch
the surface and make a lodging place
for dirt and grease. When the floor
is dry, apply a light coating of wax.
Dust linoleum daily with a dry mop,
never use an oiled mop as the oil is
harmful.

On Thursday evening friends andneighbours of Mrs. Robbins andClifton gathered at their home tospend a farewell evening wifi thembefore they move to their nlr homein the Salford district. Rev. lir.

Clifton thanked here.
Milk Stain* Can Be Stubborn
Next time the neighbour's child
upsets her glass of milk on your best
tablecloth, do give it prompt atten
tion. Professional laundries tell us
that among the stubbornest stains
they have to deal with on table linen
are milk stains . . . because once in
hot soapy water, something happens
to the protein and calcium in the
milk, and sets the stain. So instead
of consigning serviette or cloth to
the hamper unattended, do rinse out
the milk at once in cold water. Then
launder as usual in hot water and
extra-soapy suds.

Though the British Government
has not yet announced a definite
longterm agricultural policy for the
postwar years, almost from the be
ginning *bf the present war, agricul
tural organizations have sought
assurance of the position the Govern
ment would take with respect to'
post-war agricultural problems. At
the same time, there are indications
that the . British Government is defin
itely tending towards a position that
will prevent a decline in domestic
agriculture similar to that which
took place after the last war.
The British Minister of Agricul
ture in a recent speech took up a
position against self-sufficiency in
agricultural production. He indi
cated that British agriculture could
achieve the necessary adjustment and
efficiency that would enable the Uni
ted Kingdom to enjoy the advantages
of'an international’economic division'
of labour given a rising standard of
Jiving and favouarble trade condi
tions. He Mid “The area of our land
is limited, and we can never hope to
become self-sufficient as regards
food. Our soil is not suited to the
production of all we need of certain
commodities. For example,, we do
not wish to maintain any longer
than we need the terrific acreages of
wheat and potatoes that we are at
present growing. We are, after all,
primarily suited to the production
ofvlfre stock and live-stock products,
and the emphasis must be gradually
changed over to these -from crops
for direp human consumption.
“British agriculture could for a
time,” continued the Minister, ’’make
aif important contribution by enab
ling the country to conserve its for
eign exchange. However, in due
.course,, as British 'overseas financial
resources were increased and Brit
ish standards of living rateed, tfre
United Kingdom would be *bi» to
absorb not only the. food which coun-
tries-oVenyas wished to send Lr Brit
ain but. also the food which a healthy
and well-balanced home agriculture
should produce, and produce *ho
prices which would compare with
average world prices,”

Many city people, who don’t know
the situation on Ontario farms, have
been asking if these camps will really
be needed this year. Well here’s what
one fruit grower in Grimsby has to
say: “This year we are facing the
most serious shortage of farm labour
that this country has ever known.
Unless the High School girls and
boys help us again, as they have for
the past four years, weican't possibly
dolour share toward increased food
production.” As you mothers know,
High School girls and boys need to
be looked after. They need good
food, clean healthy living conditions
and someone who is concerned as to
whether they are happy or not in
their new work.
The National. Council of the
I Y.W.C.A. is, recruiting for camp
staff. They need women who would
enjoy a summer with young people
and who hj^ve had experience in
leadership. They’ need women who
can prepare wholesome, appetizing
meals. They need girls and young
women to do tffe housekeeping duties
and to assume general leadership in
camp. Al^ these positions are salaried
ones, and living accommodation and
one-way transportation are provided.
Here they are in a nut shrill Camp
Directors, Caxnp Cooks and Camp

<4 policyholder reports on
his lif e insurance company
This y ear , in -making its Annual Report to
31,000,000 policyholders, Metropolitan decided
to try som ething new.
We asked Bruce Barton, a policyholder, and a
well known writer, if he would write the report.
He agreed.
So he visited our Home Office, asked a host of
questions, looked into the facts and figures. Accord
ing to his report, the things he learned about the
Company confirm what the Examiners of the State
Insurance Department found. Following their most
recent official, examination of . the Company
had stated:
“From this examination, It becomes evident
Company is in strong financial condition, that H* affair*
are ably managed, and that tho business of the Company
is being operated in the interests of its policyholders.”
One out of every five persons in Canada and the
United States is a Metropolitan policyholder. If,
like Mr. Barton, you are one of this group, you’ll be
more than interested in the things he learned. Even
if you’re not a policyholder, you cannot help but
enjoy reading Mr. Barton’s account of what Metro-
itan did in 1944 for. the benefit of policyholders
nd public.
If you’d like a copy of this Annual Report to
Policyholders, send in the little coupon below. It’s
yours for the asking.

Helpachieved by Cardinal. Branch quotathere is $2,900 and already $3,200has been raised in a local plant, TheCanada Starch Company. Clinton, another small branch, exceeded its
$3,500 quota by $1,000 on the third
day of the campaign.
Mr. Dowie paid high tribute to the
co-operation of advertisers who this
year have been more generous than
ever in sponsoring newspaper, maga
zine and radio publicity for the Red
Cross campaign. There could be no
doubt that the excellent results
achieved to date were, in part, due
to this co-operation.
There is a job for every veteran.
Notwithstanding the circulation of
all stories or rumors to the contrary,
yet it can be disclosed that almost
every veteran, who is qualified and
applies for a suitable position in Can
ada’s Civil Service, is given a job.
This is the information given in Ottawa. There are now ten regionaloffices of the Civil Service acrossCanada and these co-operate closelywith National Selective Service, with
these regional offices having been
established about three years ago as <
a wartime measure and being located
at present in Vancouver, Edmonton,
Quebec, Calgary, Regina, Winnipeg.
Toronto, Montreal, St. John and
Halifax. Instead of clearing such
things through Ottawa, these reg
ional offices give special consider
ation to the returning veterans and
positions are filled much quicker by
communicating with local organiza
tions of veterans, informing them of
positions to be filled, finding out
what positions are wanted as well as
what persons are available so t’nat
the jobs and these persons aro
brought together as quickly a» pos
sible.
