CELEBRATED50th ANNIVERSARYLAST WEDNESDAY of PARKS BOARD MAKE PLANS TO TAKE CARE OF PICNICS Although no definite action has been taken it had been learned that suggested improvements at Memor­ ial Park are a new bridge over the water course and a picnic shelter. Both proposed structures are ap­ parently looked upon as being neces­ sary and it is understood they are likely to receive full consideration by the parks board. A picnic shelter would serve a very important purpose. For many years the park has been the scene of numerous gatherings each year, including many family reunions and picnics sponsored by various organ­ izations. It has frequently happened that unfavorable weather has interferred with the events and a shelter such as has been proposed would proride protection from adverse weather for the crowds that use Ingersoll’s park for picnics and reunions.

The cutting of the fiftieth anni­ versary cake by Charles Milton, of the Children’s Aid Society, president of- the Board of Directors 3 marked the conclusion of 50 years of endeavor and success in Oxford ’ County. The anniversary banquet r was held in Knox Presbyterian Church, Woodstock, Wednesday night 1 last, to which about 200 men and • women interested in the .work of the ' society attended. B. W. HeLse, Dep­ uty Minister of Public Welfare for Ontario, was the guest speaker. ' In the capacity audience which was representative of practically all service organizations of the county as well as Children's Aid Society officials of all the surrounding counties, the interest taken by members of almost every profession in the work of the society was ex­ emplified by the large attendance of doctors, ministers, farmers, politic­ ians, retail merchants and repre­ sentatives of practically every pro­ fession, men and women alike. Centered in the anniversary cele­ bration activities and seated at the head table was Miss Mary Pyper, the only remaining member of the first board or directors of the local so­ ciety which organized in 1901. Des­ pite the fact that 44 years have elapsed since her first appointment to the board, Miss Pyper still de­ rives a great deal of pleasure out of her interest in the work of the So­ ciety which she helped to make strong and she enjoyed every mo­ ment of the celebration of the com­ pletion of 50 years’ service to the ' community* by an organization which she herself helped to pioneer.' Mrs. E. J. Canfield reviewed thehistory of the Oxford County, ' Woodstock and Ingersoll Society and , commented on its activities and ac- ' complishmcnta during the past 50 j years. •R. G. Clowes, superintendent of . the local society, in brief comment, expressed his appreciation to the board as well as members of the J councils. He added that “You’re here to-night as representatives. , Thi* is not an open meeting. This 1 group of ,people not only represent j social service groups but a good representation of our people." • The toast to the King was sponsored 1 by A. S. Rennie of Tilteonburg. (Musical entertainment for the ’ evening consisted of vocal solos byMrs, IX L. Deeks, wife of Rev. D. 1 L. Deeks, of Woodstock, and by W. ' A. Calder, K.C., iBoth artists were accompanied by D. W, Harrison at the piano. Mrs. Deeks sang “The ’ Holy City", accompanied by illus­ trated lantern slides in color and ' Mr. Calder sang two spirited and humorous songs. A welcome wim extended to visit­ ing guest* by Clark Murray of 1 Woodstock, and Mr. I* C. Ecker, a ' former superintnedent of the so- c ciety from 1924-1935, made a suit­ able response. " Dr. J. G. Murray and Mr*. Jas. 1 Baxter are members of the Board, of ‘ Directors and quite a number of * Ingersoll organizations were re pre- ‘ tented st the anni^ersafy banquet ' Three more British ,war brides who have come to Jngersoll to re­ side were honored Friday evening at a miscellaneous showar arranged by the Gandian Legion and Ladies’ Auxiliary and friends at'the Legion club rooms.

Possibly the fact that more of us are putting our shoulders to the wheel and have helped in putting the last Victory Loan over the top is acting as a tonic. Well, it is more blessed to give, isn't it? A letter from a reader seems to bear out the above idea. In part it reads: “Our I.O.D.E. having sponsored a Bridge Marathon (proceeds for war work) have met with such success that I am of the opinion we have been cutting down too much on «o- cial events. So I am wondering if Icould have a party for several ofour neighbours to honour a friendwho is leaving our town. Couldyou suggest an economical,menu or,even better, what form could myparty take?”One of the most pleasant waysto entertain is a progressive dinner,especially when your guests live inthe immediate vicinity. Suggest tothe hostesses that food be chosen so that no one will have to labour over her stove until the guests arrive. Serve each course at a different home and plan to play bridge at the last home. Maybe one of your group has a large living room es­ pecially suited for bridge or bingo. Here is a suggested menu with every item capable of being pre­ pared in advance. House No. 1—Tomato juice, jel­ lied ahlad with cheese biscuits. House No. 2—Creamed ham, po­ tato patties, braised celery. House No. 3—Trifle, coffee.

Mayor’ Riley reported on the splendid reception given himself and Councillor Bower by the Woodstock City Council and Mayor Burston on May 14th. A resolution by Councillors Morri­ son and Nunn instructed the clerk to write the Woodstock City Council thanking His Worship Mayor Bur­ ston and the aldermen for their very Courteous reception of Mayor Riley and Councillor Bqwer at their regu­ lar meeting on May 14th. On resolution of Councillor Mor­ rison and Nunn, the Public Utilities Committee were, empowered to erect a caution light in the centre of the street at the arena to be used at times when there is a crowd con­ vened there, it being felt there is a great hazard in crossing that street. The Y’s Men’s Club wrote request­ ing cancellation of their business assessment at the arena. The club has the building on lease for a five year period and because of their work the request was granted on res­ olution or Councillors Bower and Nunn. The council went into committee of the whole to discuss tenders for the resurfacing of Bell street and and King street west from Whiting street west to the C.P.R. tracks. The tender of theJCowland Construction Co. LimlteiiTof London, wns given consideration and the price quoted was shown to be based on a unit basis of materials.

The King street job will cost approximately $4,000. The work will be proceeded with as soon as the necessary permission is obtained from the Department of Public Affairs at Toronto to spend this amount of money. The necessary bylaws will then be passed and the contract signed.

In fact, it can be recalled that not so long ago an official spokesman of the Federal Govern­ ment had emphasized in strong terms that, even after the end of the war in European area, the danger of a runaway price rise would not neces­ sarily disappear almost overnight since well-informed quarters aiong Parliament Hill recognize that con­ sumers in this country ^vould most likely seek to purchase ma^.y articles that they were unable to get prev­ iously and they would have plenty GEORGE Monday, May 28th, 8.30 P.M # special network of Ontario Stations including CKPC Brantford Wednesday, May 30th, 11.30 a special network of Ontario State CHOC Hamil Friday, June 1st, 11.30 F special network of Ontario Stal CFRB ToroM Thursday, Maj Friday, June 51st, 8.(X it, 10.45, CBL To: ^PROG RESSIVE 1 ^ CONSERVATIVE U 4+h of money for such purposes so that.there would be a bad combinationof war-inflated1 prices and war-crea­ted shortages unless the FederalGovernment stepped into the pic­ture. In short, it is recognized back- stage along Parliament Hill, when such action -is necessary, that the authorities will act in such a way to avoid any repetition price inflation and subsequent collapse which fol'- lowed the last World War I in Can­ ada as well as the United States and United Kingdom. There is no doubt that effective price control will be maintained in this country until the need for it has disappeared com­ pletely. This should be bom in mind by the men and women across Canada interpreting th? back­ ground of policy in the gradual elimination or relaxation of certain controls and war taxes as announced in Ottawa from time to time since the end of the war in Europe. RETURN OF FIGHTING MEN As it is to be expected, there is great interest and tremendous con­ cern in this nation’s capital about the return from abroad of Canada’s gallant fighting men and the general plan is now known in Ottawa, re­ vealing that troops who have volun­ teered and who have been accepted for service in the Far East, getting top priority and the m$n, who have served longest from the viewpoint of time, coming next However, it must be stated that, in the last men­ tioned instance, there is no guaran­ tee of an absolute kind that time alone will determine the man’s re­ turn since priorities of other sorts exist, such as a* married man receiv­ ing priority over a single man with the same time. Another most inter­ ring development in this return of Canada's service men is that it is known that requests have been made in Ottawa that Canadian lib­ erated prisoners of war should be returned to this country .without any undue delay because these men have suffered considerably various forms of hardships in Europe in the last few months, particularly in Ger­ many. during which time these men were moved from camp to camp un­ der extremely trying conditions. WITHOUT PROPER PUBLICITY It has not been properly publi­ cized but it has been whispered for sometime behind the scenes in this capital that preparations have been made in’detail so that whatever government will be returned topower after June 11, will be able tosummon a Dominion-Provincial Con­ference as soon as possible. More­over, the urgent need for such agathering of Canada’s politicalleaders in the central and provincialfields is growing steadily, especiallysince the close of the Europeanwar. Indeed, a hint of this urgencycame out backstage in Ottawa wjienit was learned 4hat Premier Du­plessis of Quebec was most desirous of obtaining an abrogation of the Federal-Provincial agreement cov­ ering,income and corporation tax collections which were enacted as u war measure in 1942, granting to the Federal Government exclusive right to make these collections and allowing compensation to Queoec of $20,000,000 a year for this loss of revenue. Then again, it is reported that Premier Duplessis has gone so far as to say that this wartime agreement had “put the province in a critical financial position." In other words, this case and others suggest that the need for a Dominion-Pro­ vincial Conference is becoming most urgent and this may -mean that such a gathering may be an initial major responsibility of whatever govern­ ment will be returned to power in Ottawa on June 11. « PROXX VOTING The sudden end of the war in Europe has brought one of the first, big headaches to the men running the official electoral machinery in Ottawa where it is learned the "proxy system” of voting where-by next-o-kin of prisoners of war may cast ballots for these men is prov­ ing troublesome. Many prisoners of war have been liberated and these men can vote themselves so that there is no need for the “proxy sy­ stem” in these cases, involving a waste of time and money in the creation of the “proxy system” and an extra load of work for officials in checking the rapid changes on such lists.

There is no attempt to underestimate an opinion that radi­ cal moves may be involved in time since there will be a great many men and women coming out of the armed services as well as war work in the coming weeks or months. In­ deed, the magnitude of the move­ ments can be calculated somewhat when it is reported that at about this time last year official informa­ tion stated that no leas than 5,016,- 000 persons were in the armed ser­ vices or otherwise employed in Canada compared with 3,693,000 in the first year of World War. 11 in 1939, with of this number, 1,8953^0 having duties connected with the' prosecution of the war. Moreover, the latest figures released in the cap­ ital had shown that only a short time ago in f«46 a total of 675,000 men and women were employed on the manufacture of war equipment Finally, it'should b,e added that it has been considered along Parlia­ ment Hill that the employment of more workers to the number of 900,000 after this war than had been employed in Canada in 1939 .would provide a high rate of em- p loyment' in this country. These facts indicate the size of the job undertaken by the officials in trans­ ferring workers from wartime to peace-time employment in Canada during .the coming weeks or months. NO RECOMMENDATION With the ' Governor-General, the Earl of Athlone and Princess Alice due to depart from this country early this simtaier, it is suggested along Parliament Hill that no ac­ tion may be takhn -'by the Federal ^eminent to, state the name of the w* Governor GeneraT- until after Uk general election. . Then again, thete have been storiee that a Can­ adian may be flamed but predictions are -being made in-well-informed quarters ih Ottawa that it will most likely be a. Britisher rather than a Canadian, though such tendencies have been shown in Australia and South Africa where natives were named. Meanwhile, the Earl of Athlone, brother of Dowager Queen Mary and who has been nway from Britain for about five yeari. hepes to leave this country in the summer of IMi, his term of office ending on Jane 21, 1941, and this" to only a few days after the general election on June 11. Real Social Security or Rationed Scarcity ? To tbe_political and economic reactionary, Social Security is something to be used as a bribe to win votes — a sop to soothe unrest. Social makeshifts of that kind are actually offered to-day as political substitutes for sound, economic planning for the post-war reconstruction of Canada, * To the State Socialist, on the other hand, Social Security is a bookish theory seeking to prove that poverty would be much more endurable if only it were much more general. The Progressive Conservative Party is pledged to provide, without delay, a uniform and comprehensive social security programme for all Canadians, including: And now, listen for a moment to John Bracken, the forthright leader of the Progressive Conservative Party:-— "The State here in Canada, unlike in Germany, is the servant of the people, not its master. Finance, and economic mechanisms associated with it, must likewise be regarded as the servants, not the masters, of our economy. 1 k under­ writing of prosperity Ah ) social security is a proper functi State.n [VExtended unemployment insurance coverage.

Social Security must prosperity—because the degree to which social services may be provided is deter­ mined by the size of the national income. We are pledged to maintain that income at a high prosperous level. It is against this background of plenty for all, that the Progressive Conservatives see Social Security. Where any of these social services are administered provincially, we shall provide grants large enough to ensure adequate standards of social security for all Canadians. Compare thte positive and complete programme with the makeshift ex­ pedients of other parties. No other party can equal or even approach John Bracken’s guarantee of security for all Canadians. It’s rational security—NOT rationed scarcity.

Hale hadand Mias Lanef Life.”don Dakins andy visitors with Nearly two thousand years ago the visiting of the sick was included as one of the virtues to bo practised by, those who would be the Lord’s disciples. , On Juno 3rd, many people throughout Canada, the United States and Great Britain will carry out the Master’s injunct­ ions by making a special effort to visit and help bring joy and fellow­ ship to as many shut-ins as possible. Unless we have experienced illness ourselves, little do we realize what it means to be deprived of the op­ portunity to enjoy “God’s great out- of-doors.” In hospitals, sanatoria, homes and many out-of*,he-way places millions of people know all too vividly the meaning of the words "shut-in." To encourage more thought of these folk, the first Sun­ day of June is annually set aside to remind the public of its obligation of visiting or in other ways remem­ bering those who are prevented through illness or other disability from enjoying the pleasures of the outside world. Let us make the shut-ins’ lot a hap­ pier one by planning now to visit at least two sick folk, one a civilian and the other a disabled veteran, on June 3rd, or to remember them with a letter, card or gift, anything that will tend to dispel that feeling of being useless and forgotten. A shortcar ride in the afternoon, too/ for those who are able to enjoy dne would be to many a greatly appre­ ciated treat. There is an old Scottish proverb that may well have been written by a shut-in: “Nae man can be happy without a friend.” There are many calls on our time these days, but there is perhaps no way in which we can follow in His sups with lew effort or with greater immediate re­ ward of gratitude than in being a friend to the shut-ins.
