RILEY YOUNG CORNETIST CARRIED OFF HONOURS AT BRANTFORD Ingersoll’s young cornetist, John Petrie, son of Mr. i and Mrs. Gordon Petrie, King -treat west, has again distinguished himself in the world of music. On Friday and Saturday last he competed in the Brantford Music Festival and was successful in mak­ ing splendid marks. In the cornet solo class for under 12 years, he took first place playing, "Just a Wearyin’ For You.” In the class for 16 and under, he was also first on his rendition of “Orchids.” The class for those under 18 years had nine competitors and a play-off for first and second place and John again came through with the highest marks for both trials. That gave him first prize on his playing of “Morning Glory.” For those under 21 years of age, John played. “White Velvet’” and came off with first hon- S there as .well. His mother, Mrs. Ion Petrie, played his accom­ paniment for each of his test pieces. For the final session of the Fes­ tival which has just been revived after being, discontinued during the war years, John was chosen to rep­ resent the comet section and his presentation was very well received. John Petrie will not be 12 years old until next year. He has made won­ derful strides as a cornetist and his solo work has been exceptionally fine for a lad of such tender years. He has been a member of the Y’s Men’s Boys' Band since its incept­ ion and is a pupil of the band leader Mr. A. C. Robinson, to whom much credit is due for his advancement. MRS. E. A.

Looking Back — In the — Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 29th, 1945 Nomination Interest in Ingersoll The nomination meeting held here on Friday for the municipal officers did not have as large a number of electors present as the occasion war­ ranted. The town hall with only about a third of <he seating capacity occupied, was the scene of the occasion. Three men were nominated for the posi­ tion of Chief Magistrate, twenty-nine for coun­ cillors, one for public utilities commissioner and four for three seats on the Board of Education. The activities of the 19-J'S council were re­ ported by the mayor and individual chairmen of council committees. The general consensus of opinion seemed to be that they did a good job dur­ ing the year. It is regrettable that at least three of this year’s council have decided to retire. Their experience would be of untold value in the formulation of plans for the biggest project that Ingersoll has ever undertaken—a sewerage system for the town. Among those who were nominated for council are a lot of men who could be valuable councillors with wide business ability, a few .with council ex­ perience. e Following precedent that has prevailed for a number of years here, Mayor Chas. W. Riley was given an acclamation for the mayoralty for a second term. The position has been merited on the service Mayor Riley has given during 1945. He has given unstintingly of his time and promoted worthy projects with the co-operation of his council. On Monday next, it -will be the duty of the voters to elect four members for 1946 council, the three high men will serve for two year terms and the fourth for one year. It is necessary that those who have the franchise use it. Remember you are electing a board of directors for your corporation with an assessed value of over three million dollars. Be careful how you vote, but be sure to cast your ballot at the polls on Monday. The polls will be open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Oxford Farms in'History The history of farms in Ontario and Quebec 'has recently been brought before the public by means of the Weekly Newspaper Association. "Andy” Clark, who broadcasts every Sunday morning over the Canadian network of the CBC, has been naming farm lands that have been in the same family for over 100 years. On Sunday last he mentioned that this data had been passed on to the historical society for record. Among the farms cited was the Ross farm on the 12th conces­ sion of East Nissouri. This fine old farm is situated two miles east of Kintore and three miles south of Lakeside. It was purchased in the first instance /by the late Hugh Ross in 1828 and is now occupied 'by James Ross which leaves this acreage in the same name for 117 years. On Monday morning the Tribune representative in speaking to Mr. Emerson Moulton of Dereham, was advised that the fourth concession of Dereham, about five miles south of Ingersoll, has a number of farms on that road that have all been in the same families for over 100 years. He named the farm where he lives as one of them. Others named were the Bell farm, the Little, the Phillips, Row- som and Swartout farms, all being in the same cat­ egory. The Moulton farm was taken over as Crown lands and has passed down through the years and is still in the Moulton family. We would be glad to learn more about these old homesteads and would like to share their historical lore with our readers. Other Oxford farms aroutvd Ingersoll we feol sure have been passed down from generation to generation and we invite present occupiers to send in the information. Oxford County has many historical sites that should be known to the younger ' generation and what better medium can be found 'than the Weekly Newspapers and their radio broad­ cast each week. 28 YEARS AGO Thursday, November 29th, 1917 Mrs. Wesley Spencer and baby left on Tuesday for their new home in Stratford.

Showing of Films Aiding Rural Health Country, doctors and District Nurses have found 'National Film Board progranfs a useful means of spreading information on public health in farming areas. They frequently accompany the Board’s field representatives to Rural Circuit film showings and speak on how suggestions in the films for Improving or maintaining health should be applied locally. At these showings, health officers also have an opportunity to answer questions on par­ ticular problems and distribute printed material from the provincial Departments of Public Health. Several films are used to draw attention to common sources of danger such as infected milk and water, and to show what precautions should be taken against them. Films on properly balanced diets to build resistance against disease are also shown as part of a preventive campaign. Whole-hearted support has been given by the Board to fight against tuberculosis,- diphtheria and V.D. Films are used both to impress audiences The November meeting of the Ora Circle of King’s Daughters was jheld at the home of Miss Marjorie Adams on Thursday evening, November 22nd, with the leader, Mrs. R.

NATIONAL CLOTHING DRIVE MARKED SUCCESS The local chairman for the recent National Clothing Collection, Dr. E. J. Chisholm, has received acknow­ ledgement of the work done by Ing­ ersoll’s committee. The letter also states that the drive started out to give five million and ended up with twelve million pounds of serviceable used clothing, This was vitally needed for our suffering allies over­ seas. They aimed to secure 706 local community chairmen and committees and ended with 1996. The communication is ended with the thought that the job has been well and nobly done. It was an ex­ pression of compassion, a great wave of sympathy in the spirit of the Good Samaritan.1 ri Page4 THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, NOV. 29, 1945To the Electorsof theTown of Ingersoll Bank 01 MontrealIssues PopularFinancial Report DORCHESTER I take this opportunity of the confidence you have ing me Mayor for 1946 by W.

Strong Financial Position ofCanadians Reflected in Rec­ ord Deposits in 1,400,000 Accounts. Montreal-Striking evidence of the modern trend in banking methods is contained in this year’s annual re­ port of the Bank of Montreal which —issued in the form of a well-illus­ trated, easily-understood financial story—is lifted out of the class of the conventional 'bank statement. Departing from all precedent, the Bank of Montreal tells its 1945 story with illustrations which interpret the financial developments of the past year in terms of people, and in simple statements which take the de­ tails of the report out of the terms of the banker and put them into the language of the man in the street. The story is one of record de­ posits, all-time high resources and a breakdown showing just how the bank contributes to the economic life of Canada through its services to well over a million customers. In the old “asseta”_column—now appropriately labelled “Resources which the Bank of Montreal has to meet its obligations”—are explan­ ations, in simple language of the various items pf the balance sheet— cash, money, investment, stocks, call loans, quick assets, resources and liabilities. Featured in the report is the fact that the Bank of Montreal has more than one billion dollars invested in government bonds and other/ high­ grade securities which have already market and, therefore, are described in bank parlance as “liquid re­ sources.’’ Heavy War Financing Investments of this kind account for $1,117,604,000 of the bank’s re­ sources, almost two-thirds of the en­ tire total assets of the bank. The total of these investments indicates now heavily the bank has shared in the financing of the government’s war effort. Other “liquid resources” include cash of $161,907,000, money wnich other banks owe the Bank of Mon­ treal totalling $124,06^,000, and call loans—loans payable on demand— of $60,417,000. Noteworthy is the fact that stocks of industrial and other companies total only $333,993 of the bank’s assets, which works out to 1/33 of one per cent. Total resources are given as $1,715,934,000, which is a new peak in the 128-year-old history of the bank. The “liabilities” of the bank—now described simply as “What the Bank of Montreal owes to others” are highlighted by deposits of $1,613,- 428,000, another new high in Bank of Montreal operation which reflect general prosperity of the country These deposits represent the savings and current accounts of business firms, manufacturers, merchants, farmers, fishermen and private citi­ zens, and the statement shows that these deposits have risen by some $200,000,000 during the last year.

In other words it is felt in well-informed circles along Parliament Hill that the Canadian plans of reconstruction should be properly balanced in regard to stab­ ilizing unemployment in this coun­ try through public projects as well as private enterprises so that both may be timed in the right manner. Since a high level of income and employment is being sought in Can­ ada at this time, “courage and vigor” should characterise the efforts in providing jobs for job­ seekers by public projects as well as private enterprise, with this being the exact expression used by a sen­ ior member of the Federal Cabinet in Ottawa in discussing postwar pro­ grammes of public works. This means, it is claimed, that, if private enterprise cannot provide such jobs now, it is time to bring in the aid of public works in order to give such employment. required and the latter would prob­ably have to study the penal systemsin other countries, such as the UnitedStates and Great Britain, as well as Canada before suggesting suitable changes to aid the Canadian penal system. Indeed, the Minister himself confessed that there was need for improvement in the Canadian system, especially for those Canadians who have “fallen by the wayside.” GREAT COMPLIMENT FOR PROGRAMME “The Canadian rehabilitation pro­ gramme is the most complete of any yet formed by Allied countries. It is not charity—it teaches self-service and it is designed to help a veteran help himself. “These were the .words stated by an official rehabilitation liaison officer in Ottawa who was a counsellor with the armed forces personnel prior to his discharge. After explaining the workings of the Canadian government legislation for rehabilitation and the official pro­ gramme designed to rehabilitate men and women into the economic as well a social life, he criticized those in Canada who took, isolated individual cases of misbehaviour since leaving the armed forces, stressing in no uncertain language that these were very few in number in comparison with those who had accomplished a splendid job of rehabilitation. did not have to apologize for ques­tioning government expenditures anddespite technicalities the representa­tives of the people were entitled toknow what was going on, Mr. Cald­well also disputed the. Government’sstand with, among other arguments,stating: “I declare that that author­ity is derived from the people,”The Government was answerable to the elected representatives of people, he claimed, and not to Crown or its representatives.

A short musical program ' krill be presented and lunch served. St Peter’s church choir will hold a sacred concert on Sunday evening, Dec. 9th, at 7.30 o’clock—(W.) The Minister for Air, Hon. Colin Gibson, has indicated in Ottawa that a special committee will start reviewing over eight thousand appli­ cations already received for enlist­ ment in Canada’s permanent air force and this operation will com­ mence about the 1st of December, insinuating at the same time that a recruiting campaign may be made early in the new year of 1946 and inferring that there were plenty of chances for men in the R.C.A.F., especially for younger men, though the R.C.A.F. was definitely ready to offer, first of all, the chances for openings to those men who have ser­ ved in World War II. In addition, Aid Cadet Corps are expected to provide substantial numbers of pros­ pects. These facts were explained in Ottawa by the Minister whose an­ nouncement was accompanied by the disclosure that during the last war the air force of this country had at one time a peak of no less than about 215,000 in uniform and 17,000 civilian employees or members of staff. Now Canada plans to create an air force for the postwar period of 20,000 men, though prior to World War II it had only about 4,000 men. B a n k : o r M o n t r e a l In view of the nationwide wave of violent crimes sweeping across this country like a wild fire, it can be reported that the Government has disclosed in Ottawa that it plans to establish a commission to exam­ ine some of the penal reforms' sug­ gested by a Royal Commission in the year 1939, though such action awaited only the end of the war and it would have been taken earlier if conditions *had permitted. In fact, a Bill to amend the Penitentiaries Act has already (been presented in Parliament with the Minister of rent, the enda- n war BARRIS Justice, Hon.

RECOGNIZED REACTION Following the great events which have occured since he left Ottawa, including his longest absence .from any session since 1919, the careful joint declaration of policy on atomic energy for war as well as peace by United States, Britain and Canada, and the visit to this capital by Prime Minister Attlee, Premier King’s re- turn has been marked by strong re­ actions in Ottawa that something concrete has been accomplished and far-reaching decisions have been made during recent weeks in order to bring about some settlement of present world disturbances which seem to continue as an aftermath of World War II. Indeed, it is common talk on Parliament Hill that coming weeks may be crucial weeks in form­ ulating world policies and importantnews may be imminent. S.' E.

There are predictions in the capi­ tal that the heated dispute started by Finance Minister Ilsley as spokesman for the Government, when he de­ clared that the government derived its authority from the Crown and it was not delegated to it by Parlia­ ment, thougrh he admitted thit the government was responsible to Par­ liament, will not die a natural death and it will be heard about for a long time to come, especially since this declaration was hotly disputed by the leader of the Official Opposition, Hon. John Bracken and the leader of the C.C.F., M. J. Coldwell, with the latter two protesting loudly agains tthis viewpoint when a request was production of corre*. changed between officials of the Crown; Mr. Ilsley, usually ealm, dis­ closed great anger and delivered his lecture at times, in * shout as he nngued that the time of Parliament was taken up with “an apparent attempt to govern rather thgn legis­ late” on frequent occasions.
