The artists were Mr. Bruce Sharpe, violinist of London, and the London Ladies* Choir. Mr. Sharpe’s contributions were of an exceptionally high order and re­ ceived loud and long applause after each rendition. He was accompanied at the piano by Mrs. Sharpe. The London Ladies’ Choir which is entering its 20th year of activity, as an organizaiton, gave two groups of songs that delighted the audience. The blending of the voices was noted to a marked degree and was brought out to greater advantage in the un­ accompanied numbers. Alec Pudwell, organist of St. Paul’s Church, con­ ducted the choir, and Mr. A. E. Harris was at the piano. Following the playing of Mr. Sharpe’s first group, Mrs. Sharpe was presented ■with a corsage of roses by little Sandra McHardy, on behalf of the Junior Choir. e Thametford—Over 50 local hun­ ters attended the weekly rabbit drive and were successful in get­ ting one red fox.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 10th,\ 1946 Socialists,Would Nationalize the Land The editor of the Canadian Statesman has warned more than once that Socialism would mean the nationalization of farmland in Canada. His warnings have been pooh-poohed by the CCF faithful, here in Durham County and elsewhere in Ontario who claimed he knew nothing about the doctrines and practices of socialism. We summon as our latest witness Tom Williams, the British Minister of Agriculture, who, accord­ ing to a Canadian Press cable, has warned the farmers of Britain that failure to co-operate in the Labor Government’s planned agricultural pro­ gram might mean nationalization of their land. He said the Labor (Socialism) Government’s policy is intended to ‘'ensure that land is properly farm­ ed, managed and equipped” and that it miijht be taken from fanners and land-owners “who fail to play their part” in a planned, agricultural economy. - On December 6th, 1943, M. J. Coldwell, national leader of the CCF said: “The CCF is a socialist movement in exactly the same manner as the labor parties of the British Commonwealth and the Anglo-Saxon world are socialist.” He has made other statements along the same line, intending to show that the CCF in Canada and the Labor Party in Britain are political bed-fellows, advocating the same fundamental policies. It is best to remember that socialism is social­ ism no matter where you find it. It is a political philosophy, predicted on fixed social and econ- ’ omic beliefs. If British socialists believe in nation­ alization of farm land, you can be sure that Can­ adian socialists or Russian socialists or Chinese socialists beleve in nationalization of land. The only difference may be that one group hesitates to ' admit it openly and frankly for fear it might em- barass the party at the polls.— (The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville.) The Two-Dollar Shirt Most Canadians are unlikely to agree with John T. Hackett, K.C., M.P., that all controls should forthwith be tossed out the most convenient Win­ dow in the privy council room. Most of us see some merit in a control which does not irk us but see no merit at all in a control which impinges on our way of life. Few are competent to take a look at the abstract principle. At the same time, one is reminded of what Sal­ mon P. Chase said to Horace Greeley in 1866: “The way to resumption is to resume.” That dic­ tum may yet be the only way to solve the problem. “Oh! what a tangled web we weave when first we practise” to control. In less poetic language, it it suggested that Donald Gordon has a bear by the tail. It is clearly evident, the Brookings Institution predicted as long ago as 1940, that the rigid price control has diminished seriously the supply of the cheaper essential goods available to the consumer. Continued rigid price control will not restore those goods to the market within measurable time and, meanwhile, Christinas shoppers found little to buy except high-priced junk. Orders, pronunoiamien- tos, directives, adjurations to the contrary not­ withstanding, the $2.00 men’s shirt will not be available in adequate quantity until it can be pro­ duced and marketed without loss by the makers and marketers.—The Printed Word. Our Big Civil Service Serious consideration should be given to demo­ bilising the war swollen civil service of the Domin­ ion Government, declares the Financial Post edi­ torially. “Before the war there were 44,000 people working for the Dominion Government and the annual payroll amounted to $88 millions. The year past those figures had risen to 150,000 people and $229 millions. That outlay is approximately half our prewar budget,7an utterly fantastic load for a country of only 12 millions to carry. Assum­ ing that the average civil servant support two de­ pendents this means that, exclusive of the armed services, every 25th worker .is on the Dominion Government payroll. Beware of Fires With winter’s mantle of snow blanketing the countryside we are confronted daily with news of deaths caused by fires. In many instances care­ lessness was the chief contributing cause. Coal oil being used to light the fire, overheated stove pipes, or defective chimneys have reaped their toll. Yet everyone is fully aware of the necessity of taking the utmose precaution to prevent such fires. It is just those few minutes when we forget or are careless that such accidents occur. We fought to make Christian civilization safe. Now, to be safe, we must fight to make civiliza­ tion Christian.—Picton Times. THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JAN. 10, 1946Looking Back— In the —Files of The Ingersoll TribuneIngersoll - Ontario 11 YEARS AGO Thursday, January 10th, 1935 Miss Marjorie Fuller, manager of the local Passmore Store, is in Toronto this week. Mrs. E. H. Fogarty of Fitchburg, Mass., is visit­ ing with relatives in Ingersoll and district. Mrs. F. N. Horton, Miss Helen Horton, Mr. and and Mrs. Gerald LeFaive and Miss Helen Elliott left Thursday by motor for Los Angeles, to spend the winter. Of Interest to Women The marriage of Florence Evelyn Hatch, R.N., of Rochester, N. Y., younger daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. C. Hatch, Canterbury street, Ingersoll, and Rayburn F. Smith of Rochester, was solemn­ ized in that city on New Year’s Day. A quiet wedding was solemnized at New St. Paul’s Church, Woodstock, on Saturday, December 22nd .when Grace, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Tarrant, Ingersoll, was united in marriage to Harry Wilson of Princeton. Rev. H. B. Ashby, rector of the church, performed the ceremony. The final meeting of the 1934 council was held in the council chamber on Monday morning. Mayor J. M. Wilson was in the chair and Council­ lors Samuel L. Shelton, Leo J. Kirwin, Harry Smart, Russell Morgan and John C. Weir were in attendance. Town Clerk Robert McNiven read the minutes of the last regular meeting. A quiet wedding was solemnized on Tuesday (New Year’s) afternoon at Trinity United Church parsonage, when Doris May, elder daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Foote', was united in marriage to. Gerald Waite LeFaive, youngest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. L. F. LeFaive. Rev. Dr. J. G. Miller, pastor of the church, officiated. cleaner behind the ktchen door, orunder the living room sofa when lt’»not in use? Stray brooms, mops and vacuums are among the causes of household accidents, we’re told, yet practically every second home across Canada lacks a regular broom closet for storing away such house­ hold implements. Such is the report of the Lever “Canadian Homes” Sur­ vey, which found vacuum cleaners and carpet sweepers lodged in clothef cupboards, cellarways, under the bed, in the linen closet ... in fact, every conceivable comer of the house. The broom closet is included as an essential part of recently de­ signed built-in-cupboards that are being fitted ipto present day kitch­ ens, both new anddfild. A narrow broom closet of proper height to ac­ commodate the ^vacuum cleaner is designed with nails fixed high on the walls to hold mops, brooms and brushes, which should be hung handle down, to avoid wear from weight resting on the bristles. Addi­ tional high shelves in the closet are conveniently arranged to take liquic • cleaners, soaps, furniture polish anc' so on. The practical argument for • the broom cupboard is that it saves : space and protects equipment. A further point is that wear and tear are saved the housewife, who need 1 no longer trundle the vacuum down- i stairs from the bathroom to the liv- i ing room, or up out of the sloping [ basement stairway every time she I uses it. constnU chsrM#r‘n t property; »’ 2S0 <«« .aslefW -“-1 4I*B "AfotBB *cre ** r-lnt *iU B ’PP„rt there Witt hForth'""0"’ R ne j “50 <e'1 recurnnS n .

To Clean and Preserve Linoleum CBy far the most popular floor rcovering in Canadian houesholds is slinoleum, reports the Lover “Can- tadian Homes” Surve/ And to help (the lady of the house keep linoleum * clean and in good repair, here arc < a few tips from experts on the sub- ] ject. Linoleum provides an excel- (lent wearing surface, they remind , her, with proper care. Not too much . water and the use of mild soap for , cleaning are recommended. Wipe ; off the linoleum with a cloth wrung , out of warm soapy water, tackling ] an area about a yard square at a , time. Then wipe each patch dry ar . you go along, using a second cloth wrung out of clear water. (No sloshing on of suds . . no leaving those wet splashes an hour or two to dry!) An occasional coating of shellac or varnish, or an application of floor wax aids in protecting the surface. Don’t use strong soaps or or harsh cleansers to remove grease or stains; these simply take the top off the floor finish, and encourage dirt and grime to make a permanent discoloration. Still another means of lengthening the life of your linol­ eum is to place small rugs at sink and worktable to absorb spilled liq­ uids and take extra wear. Finally say the experts, avoid chips and cracks by using smooth castors on chairs and tables. With linoleum doing duty in practically 90% q£ city kitchens, it is surprising to find it in only three out of four kitchens on farms, where, however, a higher use of linoleum in living and dining rooms somewhat compensates accord­ ing to the Lever Survey. The hardwood floor ranks next in popularity in all areas, with rugs preferred for city living rooms. Com­ plete carpeting from wall'-to wall shows a much lower figure, as alsc do painted floors.

Among the most palat­ able were red clover, fall rye, an al- sike-timothy mixture. Ladino clover alfalfa and brome grass. Timothy, Kentucky blue grass, reed canary | grass, and red fescue were not so satisfactory. •Doctor—“Ask the accident vic­ tim what his name is, so we can notify his family.” Nurse (a few minutes later)—“He says his family knows his name.” DRIED BEANS A total acreage of 96,400 sown to dried beans was recommended at the recently held Dominion-Provincial Agricultural Conference, of which Ontario will account for 81,500 acres, Quebec, 12,600, New Bruns­ wick, 1,200, British Columbia, 900, ■ and Alberta, 200 acres.

IMPROVE BACON MAINTAIN SUPPLY EBENEZER SCOTTS SCRAP BOOK r. j . scon Maintenance of supply and im­ provement of quality of bacon ship­ ped to the United Kingdom during 1946 will have an important effect upon Canada’s ability to retain a satisfactory share of the British market, says the Current Review of of Agricultural Conditions in Can­ ada. During the war yean, a hard cure for bacon was necessary for preservation under difficult condi­ tions of transportation and storage in the United Kingdom. Improve­ ment in th'ese conditions has made possible the use of a milder eure. Further modifications in cure are planned which, along with continued improvement in the quality of hogs marketed, will ensure Canada's abil­ ity to compete successfully with the product of any other country. Canadian farmers have been asked to maintain production close to six million hog* in 1946. This is the minimum number which would make possible the fulfilling of the 1946 contract with the United King­ dom for 450 million pounds of bac­ on, and at the same time provide supplies in a rationed domestic mar­ ket at a level which would prevent the development of a tendency to direct marketing* into irregulai channels.

Deachman Says the New York Times:"You can leave New York and be in London in 11 hours and 30 minutes, in Bombay in 30 hours, Chicago in 2 hours and 46 min­ utes, Miami in 3 hours and 40 minutes.”Now these are pleasant words but there’s a catch in them. A manliving in Canada, at this time of year, might feel it quite delightful to be able to get to Miami in 3 hours and 40 minutes, providing he had the money and time to stay there for a couple of weeks, basking in the sun, looking at the new styles in bathing suits. Bombay would probably provide less beauty—more heat and smells. We are likely to be plagued with this sort of stuff in the next few years. Practically everyone we meet will have been in London, Sydney, Hong Kong and what have you? One of the joys of travelling is in boasting where we have been. Im­ agine sitting down to lunch with a friend and remarking casually, “I was in Batavia last week", and then have him reply: “1 was in Batavia last February. “Evelyn”, my oldest daughter, is in Brazil to-day—that kid has been in almost every coun­ try in the world. Recall the Norwegian who lived in Mongolia—I mentioned him be­ fore. He tried to sell a Ford car to a Mongolian Chief, told him that with it, he could be in a place 500 miles away in ten hours. Said the Chief: “What would I do when I got there?” That question will never puzzle our ultra-modern tourists. To have been in certain places will be ‘ quite enough. In time, in the new ' age. we will get sick of running ' about. We will be content, at least, : to sit by the fire and listen to a ’ speech from M. J. ColdAll or the Hon. Humphrey MitchelM 1 Men’s At Hot TOWN COUNCIL (Continued from page 1) from the Lions Club and asked__ the council's backing in sponsorng a Junior A. baseball team and the use of Victoria Park ball diamond.

Dewan, former Minister of Agriculture, addressed the Y’s Men’s Club at their meeting held in 1 the Coffee Shop on Monday even- > ing. President Howard Horton con- , ducted the business and called for - committee reports. Jack Cole out- ) lined the work in connection with the “At Home’’ and George Clifton s reported on the “Ice Follies’’, both i of which are to be held in the near ■ future. It was annonunced that Lou • Martin was to be in charge of the i Boys’ Work with Y Secretary Bill- I ings as his assistant. : Guests at the meeting were Cpl. i John Lockhart, Capt Geo. Lockhart and Charles Osterbury, of the Com- ; munity Welfare Council of Ontario. : Mr. Osterberry later addressed the directors of the club at a later meet­ ing and presented some very helpful information and suggestions with re­ spect to the local Community Centre. Mr. Dewan chose as his subject, “Impressions Gathered from Public Life”. The speaker stated that there was too great a tendency to divert municipal governments of their pow­ ers and to confine their jurisdictions. These bodies should be left to do everything that can be done with efficiency, rather than having such services passed on to more distant centres, where larger organizations are required with increased costs of administration and service costs with a resultant increase of taxes. The speaker felt that this tendency towards centralization was taking place without the general public realizing it, and is being caused by their own acts and demands on the government. Mr. Dewan also felt that there should be more business in the gov­ ernment. That there appeared to be too much inefficiency and lack of punctuality. Too many memben tolerate and condole this condition, which ordinary businessmen would not stand for.

Following an illness of about twoweeks' duration, the death of EllaTruckle, dearly beloved wife of James Melvin Gaskin, occurred at the family residence, 120 Oxford street; on Sunffay afternoon. Mrs. Gaskin who was born at Till­ sonburg, was in her 59th year, and had been a lifelong resident of Till- j sonburg until about two years ago when she came to Ingersoll where her quiet and kindly manner had made for her a large circle of friends. She was a member of the Pentecostal Tabernacle here. Left to mourn her passing besides her husband are two sons, William in Delhi and Harry in Ingersoll; one daughter, Mrs. Albert Jeffries, Ing­ ersoll; four grandchildren, two sis­ ters, Mrs. Grace Miller and Mrs. Leo Luster, both in Tillsonburg and three brothers, Alvin Truckle in Brant­ ford, Fred in Windsor and Arnold in Welland. A short service was conducted at the late residence Tuesday evening and the funeral was held from the Ostrander and Sons Funeral Home Tillsonburg, on Wednesday after­ noon, at two o’clock, with interment made in the Tillsobnurg cemetery. OFFICERS ELECTED FOR ST. JAMES’ DISKING CLUB LAID TO REST THOMAS BURGE* HouseholdHints Mayor C. W. RileyPresents Aims inInaugural Address Children’s C lo thes January 7th, 1946 To the Members of Council and Citizens of Ingersoll. In presenting my inaugural ad­ dress I wish at the -outset to convey my appreciation to my colleagues of 1945 and the Citizens of Ingersollfor the kindly gesture of continuing my tenure of office by acclamation. I wish to assure all that it will be my definite purpose to endeavor to merit the continued confidence that has been reposed in me. I feel it is unnecessary to review in detail the work of the council in the past year, however I do feel I would be remiss in my duty if I did not pay tribute to all members of the 1945 council for their earnest consciencious work and the whole "hearted manner in which the various municipal problems were disposed of. It is fitting also that I express regret that members who have ably served in the council in 1945 and in previous years, will be absent dur­ ing the present year. I know I am voicing the sentiments of al! those associated with them, that they wili be missed not only for their-fnend- liness and co-operation but for the jwise counsel they were able to offer, gained through years of active ex­ perience. I also wish to extend to the new members on behalf of this council and the citizens of Ingersoll, a sin­ cere welcome and express the hope that wc may work together pleas­ antly and successfully in the best interests of the town of Ingersoll. Under our system of Democratic Government , I trust each member will be acuated by the thought that in all our deliberations and enact­ ments we should strive to carry out to the fullest extent the principles of democracy, the greatest good to the greatest number, at all times having due regard for our own individual responsibility and the welfare and advancement of the Town of Inger­ soll. The year 1945 I believe was marked by a progressive spirit on the part of the council and I re­ spectfully suggest that progress and service be our watchword for the year we have entered upon.

In view of the genera) interest in the town on benalf of softball and amateur sports, I trust this council will maintain a friendly and industrial expansion, I trust this council will readily give the necess­ ary assistance in advancing this pro­ ject in all its intial stages until it becomes a reality. With the return almost daily of brave men who have served heroic- interest in movements to provide ally overseas, their rehabilitation is a matter of deep concern and im­ portance. In this connection the council should be prepared to give all the assistance possible. Our street and sidewalk work will undoubtedly have to be continued— this is important, in some respects are not only to be desired but arc essential. I have the fullest confi­ dence that this matter, with the co-operation of the council, will be capably dealt with by the Board of Works. Through the joint action of the council and the Board of Education, a definite advancement was made in! 1945 in broadening the scope for greater recreational activities and inducements for boys and girls of Ingersoll.

They are the Canadian Army Occupation Force. It is the purpose of this article to set forth what they are doing, why and where they are doing it, under what condi­ tions and for how long. When the Allies decided Britain, Russia, France and United States would divide Germany into four sec­ tions for military occupation, Can­ ada was asked to provide one aug­ mented and self-sustaining division of troops to serve in the British section, under Montgomery. Canada was allotted a piece of Northwest Germany, roughly 80 miles square. It runs along the North Sea from Emden to Wilhelmshaven and inland to Bremen and Olden­ burg. Canada is committed to provide this force at least until March 31, 1946. But occupation, may well go much longer. As yet no Belgian or Dutch troops are used for this purpose. Possibly Canadians will be relieved of this duty by troops of these coun­ tries before Allied occupation of Germany is discontinued. The Can­ adian troops hope so—but specula­ tion is dangerous. The Canadian troops, under Major General “Chris” Vokes, are in that piece of Germany to see that the will of Field Marshal Mqntgomery is enforced. Their main problem is to ensure continued good order. There is a kind of German civilian Government aided by a German pol­ ice force. But it is up to occupation troops to see that the rules and reg­ ulations of civilian government anc police force are carried out The government and police force, of course, operate under supreme orders of the Allied Control Council Canadian troops are the only oc­ cupation troops in this area. They live in barracks, most of them in the city of Oldenburg. In day and night shifts they mount guard over power plants, bridges, important in­ dustries and offices, food distribu­ tion points, stations, hospitals. They are always armed. Canadian troops do not act as police. They do not patrol streets with rifles over their shoulders. Ger­ man police do these jobs. But if the the local police fail in their job, or if trouble is anticipated, a unit of Canadian troops rushes to the scene in strength. They do not go out alone. One or the most delicate problems is the care of the vast and tragic number of displaced persons. If these people feel their suffering too much they make trouble. And whether they make trouble with Ger­ man authorities or with Canadian troops it is all one parcel of grief to the Occupation Force. Displaced persons, lack of housing, food short­ age, epidemics—there is no lack of danger in such a combination. Another big task is proper dis­ tribution of food and fuel. Communi­ cations are still badly disrupted. Canadian troops don’t actually trans­ port these things but they see that they arrive where the need is great­ est. It is their task, too, to see to the clearance of blocked transport lines, delayed deliveries, storage con­fusion. Main trouble with the life of an occupation soldier is that it is dull. He is fed well, twice the calories of the civilian population he is caring for. But his food is not exciting. He is given education and sports programs to occupy his spare time. Concerts and other forms of enter­ tainments are laid on fairly regu­ larly. Leave is arranged to England, Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam. But— his job is dull. Still, reports that American troops are getting out of hand—-notably in France—do not seem to have par­ allel situations with Canadian troops. Authorities I talked to here this week—some just back-say there has been “no trouble.” Discipline is good, they say. There has been fraternization to some ex­ tent—for the biological urge is fundamental. But by apd large Can­ adian troops in Germany have cared for themselves and their duties in fine fashion. Army leave centres in continental cities and in England make it poss­ ible for the Canadian soldier to get along on his regular pay. Otherwise European prices are fantastic.

Meat Board ex­ ports of frozen beef, bone-in and boneless, amounted to 152,000,000 pounds during the first eleven month* of 1945. In addition there were 28,000,000 pounds booked for earlyshipment. This, says the Current Re­ view of Agricultural Conditions in Canada, represents the product from 391,000 head of cattle. During the same period, 850,000 pounds of ox­ tails were shipped to the United Kingdom. Beef is the principal in­ gredient of the canned meat being shipped to France, Belgium, Holland, UNRRA, and Military relief. From January to November, inclusive, 83 million pounds were shipped of which 12 million pounds represent November shipments. The Ukraine and Russia received almost one mil­ lion pounds. The Meat Board beef operations commenced in November of 1943. Since then, almost one-quarter of a billion pounds of beef have been handled in frozen or manufactured form. position to state his wishes and at backhand wait. Troops for this Occupation Force were chosen first of all by their own selection. After Germany fell, ques- tionaires were sent out asking over­ seas troops if they wanted to (a) go to the Pacific, (b) remain in Ger­ many, (c) get out of the Army. Not qjiite one-third of the required 25,000 volunteered to remain in Germany. The force was then built up by | officers and men with low point 1 scores, and by officers and men whose particular training or ability especially suited them to occupation work. Cooks, for example, were scarce. So many cooks with high point scores that would otherwise have brought them home were oblig­ ed to remain with the Occupatqn Force. Likewise, with trained offi­ cers, clerks, personnel speaking Ger­ many. But there is a gradual replac­ ing of *all personnel that want to come home, as soon as substitutes can be found for them, here or in England. It is wise to avoid speculation on . how long our troops will remain in i Germany. But for the anxious and i curious here arc some thoughts. The I Canadian Government once stated i that no soldier would be kept in I Germany xon the Occupation Force more than two years. On the other hand the expiary date of the present commitment is March 31. Army of­ ficials have three plans in their desk: (a) what to do if the force is moved out March 31; (b) what to do if it is to stay a year; (c) what to do if it is to stay longer than a year. The decision is not yet made. It is not a matter of Army policy but of Government policy. Indeed, it is international policy. In the mean­ time, Canadians are spending Christ­ mas in Germany. Maybe this story will remind us to give them a toast of good cheer and good luck. DOMINION Beans 2 for 27c Sone and Blackwell 9 ox.

Mr. Burge who was in his 84th year was born in Dereham Township and had spent his entire life the^e where he had made for himself scores of friends. He had not been in good health for over four months. Left to mourn the passing of a loved father are three sons, William and Ralph Burge, Detroit; Ira Burge of Ingersoll, and four daughters, Mrs. Anson Simmons, Aroville, Cali­ fornia; Mrs. Daniel Landgraf, Dear­ born, Mich.; Mrs. Ernest Dale, River­ side, Ontario; Mrs. John Vansickle Dearborn, Mich., to all of whom sin­ cere sympathy is extended.

"Now see here, young un, If he’dabeen primed to do ’way with Jed, gwould he a-brung him in?” I “I don’t know,” Rusty admitted. “If he knew Uqcle Jed was goingi—if he was seriously wounded— Is'he.

"Now, look-a-here,” Hank pro­tested.But Rusty shook her head. In'whom could you trust in suchdays as these? The hospital corridors weresmudged with the gray of dawnwhen a nurse came for Rusty. "Mr. Rowland is conscious,” shesaid, “and insists upon talking to you. Please be brief; he must savehis strength.”He looked so strange in-bed, theclerical collar of his hospital jacketpropping his withered chin. Rusty took his hand and leanedover. “You old he-goat, going outlike a tenderfoot to catch the —What did you sav?" at him It's most probable the manfigured Jed was a black marketrustler.”The secretary was satisfied.“Something similar to the affair on the Four D,” he remarked “We’reall getting pretty hair-trigger. Thatreminds me, it was Decker whotelephoned me. He asked me toconvey a message to you if I saw you. He’s coming in to take youhome, at your mother’s request, hesaid.”Decker called for Rusty at thehospital late that afternoon, afterpicking up her bags at Westmofe’s place.He was in a gay mood, insistingthey remain in the city for dinner.He deposited Hank with some old cronies, then took her to a diningroom on the roof of a hotel. As they dined, they watched ayoung spring storm come in, turn­ ing the world to greenish gold, sav­ing that gold to throw in jaggedlines against a purpling night. And perversely, Rusty thought of another storm and another man. . . During dinner, Decker remarked,“After we're married, we'll run inhere often. The trouble with usranchers, Small Fry, is we stick too close to the spread; our per­spective narrows down to weatherand cattle. That’s not living. A per­son needs to get out and meet all "Wrong?” chuckled Decker. “Why, Half-pint, this is fun! Weused to bemoan the lack of excite­ment” "I guess,” she sighed, “I prefermy excitement relayed by screenand radio.” But Decker was enjoying life. Shecould tell by the lilt in his voice,the way he handled the car, thequick gay smiles he sent her from time to time."What shall 'I bring you fromNew York?” he asked as he droveinto the Double R. “Diamonds, a fur coat—name it.

The Nopocoswould shelter her tor the rest ofher life.“Name ItJ’ he insisted."Empire State Building,” she re-pl|£d. "Oh, here we are. . . ." Her mother and Manny, Pedroand bls wife, Piney and the hands—all milled around, asking ques­tions.And then they dispersed, even Manuel going to his room—pro­pelled, rt was true, by his mother.“Mind if I stay a while?” Deckerasked Rusty.

Phone 1847 She reared back and smiled atthe nurse, who stood open-mouthedwith astonishment at the whisperedejaculations coming from the pa­ tient."He’H live,” she told the nurse. “He has a religious streak, andhe'd never risk meeting The BigBoss with words like that on hisUps. . . . Yes, Uncle, I hear you.” Later, Rusty left the hospital ina puzzled mood. In deference to Hank, she breakfasted in a smokylittle cafe, and over thin coffee anda thick omelet revealed a little of what her uncle had said.“He wasn’t altogether coherent He said one of Manny’s dogs pickedup a scent and led him to the oldmountain trail, the one that’s shale- filled. He said he saw fresh tracksof cattle and of two horses. As ourmen know they're never to go therebecause of falUng shale, he decid­ed to investigate further. He went out after supper last night, and ac­cording to his story, someone tooka shot at him from the shale bed.Now does that make sense?” Hank shook his head. "Sure don't. Miss Rusty. Isn’t a man couldah’isted himself up there withoutall hands spottin’ him in daylight,and he couldn’ta did It nighttime.Besides, him seeing tracks-why, we haven’t run cattle ’round theresince the sUde. 'Taln't safe.” “But you said he believed some­one was snaking calves out of the herds and driving them off.” “Him believin' ain't no sign it’sso. Besides, where'd they run them?"Rusty didn't know. “An' don't you go tryln’ to findout,” the old man warned. “Justrecollect that shcephorder gettin’buried down the Nopocos a stretch.Proves shale ain’t nothin’ to fool •round with. Now, what’s the docsay about your uncle?" Rusty smiled. "He says he’s tootough for just one bullet to finish off. They gave him a transfusionand may give another. He's suffer­ing more from jfcock than anything else. HeShe broke off as a man stopped at the doorway, looked in, thencame hurriedly to her table. It wasthe association secretary."What’s this I hear about your unde, Miss Rowland? We’ve hadno report of a raid. I wasn’t In;Doctor Westmore and I made a night of it on Clancy’s—” Rusty didn’t realize she had re­laxed in her chair, gone suddenlyso limp that both men looked ather anxiously. Not. she reasoned, that she actually thought Herb hadi had anything to do with this, yet—She explained briefly what had occurred.” .“A bogey-man,” supplied Hank,“and the bogey-man up and shot HOW TO PASTEURIZE DAIRY PRODUCTS kinds of people. Right?" Rusty supposed it was, yet the radio and the automobile had sonarrowed the distance betweenranches, and between ranches andtowns, she'd never felt the need ofanything more. "I’m going East next week, andwhen I return—” Decker left thatin the air. “Meanwhile, how wouldyou like to borrow a few of myhands for your roundup? I’ll haveSlim Jack pick up the best of thelot and ride over when you whis­tle."Hank made an able chaperon onthe drive home. His tongue loos­ ened by the "doggone hair-oil” hiscronies bad served him, he regaledthem with yams of the country’searly days. Decker turned on the car radioand the three of them sang as theysped through the misty prairienight. It was fun, it was pleasant,it was "home folks,” thought Rusty. It was good to be back with herown people. "Sleepy?” asked Decker, as theyturned off the main highway. She was. E..cept for a short nap on a hospital divan, she’d had norest. Decker rolled a car robe intoa head rest, tuckeiT another abouther, and muted the radio. She awakened once to becomedimly aware of Decker’s arm re­placing the rug roll, but was toodeeply steeped in sleep to do any­ thing. Then she awakened com­pletely a second time, conscious ofchill and silence. The driver’s seatbeside her was empty. “Hank,” she whispered. "Sh,” warned the old man be­hind her. and then, leaning close,“Deck figured he heered shootin’ and druv off the road ’n’ turned offthe lights. He's gone back afoot tolook ’round. I got me a gun here." Hie two of them sat waiting, lis­tening, every sense acutely alert. A few months previously, she hadsat on this same prairie withoutthought of fear, had spent thenight in company with a stranger. She marveled now at the foolhardi­ness of her conduct How quicklycrime could stain a countryside,how quickly fear be Implanted in its people! There — both she and Hankjumped. A car motor waa starting—a truck motor, a heavy double-decker, they estimated. A few moments later, they heardthe soft “squash” of Decker’s foot “Awake?” he asked unnecessar­ ily. as he slid in behind the wheel.“Not afraid, were you? Ran into atruck out there. The driver thoughthe’d heard something and waa playing it safe.”“It's wrong to live under this ten­sion.” Rusty said angrily. Musty same onto the divan beforethe fire in the living room.“What is it," she asked."Rusty, I bad Doctor Mason upfrom Bordcrville to handle mystock. I told him you were goingto need him.”“Deck!*’ “You can call Westmore and tellhim you won’t need him. I’m notgoing East leaving you with thatdoubtful character having the. runof the place. I owe that much toRalph.” “Deck. I couldn't refuse DoctorWestmore’s help now, not afterwhat he’s done for me.” "And why do you suppose he puthimself out, busy as you say he is,to ingratiate himself with youranchers? Brotherly love? Or free­dom of your ranges." Rusty arose. “I don’t like yourassumption that you own me andthe Double R. You’re not runningthis spread. You had no right tohire Doctor Mason, and I shallphone him first thing in the morn­ing and tell him so. I made abusiness arrangement with DoctorWestmore and I intend keeping ItHe's the best veterinarian we'veever had around here. That’s thetype I want handling my stock.” She had reached the door whenhe stopped her. "All right, if you won’t call West-more off, I shall. He’s not comingonto this place again, nor any other in my district if I have to put himin jail to keep him away. And Ican.”"How?” demanded Rusty defi­ antly."The night of the trouble on myranch, your Doctor Westmoretreated two wounded men. The sec­ond man was Slim Jack, the first an cx-Qilcago gangster who theauthorities believe is mixed up withthe black market rustlers operatinghere. Westmore reported only SlimJack’s wound to the sheriff's office and to the medical board. Givingaid to a wounded man without areport is a felony.” For a moment after Decker’sstartling assertion, Rusty stood per­ fectly still, storing at him. CouldIt be true that Herb Westmorehad given medical aid to a gang­ster as well as to Slim Jack on that night of the trouble at Deck­er’s ranch? And how did Deckerknow? She realized that the Informa­ tion fitted into place like the miss­ing piece of a jigsaw puzzle. It ex­plained some of the things she badoverheard on the phone that night It accounted for Herb’s harshorder to Adelaide not to answer thedoorbell. And it accounted forDecker's listening in on the hospi­tal extension phone until Herb and the men with him came in.ITO BK CONTINUED) | germs that may be contained therein will be destroyed, and in the case of milk and cream, of cooling to a tern- perature at which the growth of the surviving organisms will be restrain­ ed.

L imited THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JAN. 10, 1946WEEK BY WEEK REALISM IN OTTAWA It must be reported at this time that backstage in Ottawa there is no attempt to conceal the truth that the domestic problems in Canada must be solved just as much by in­ ternal co-operation as international co-operation must exist for the so­ lution of current problems on the world scene, if peace and plenty are to be the rewards of victory in World War II, with this being the spirit which has been brought into the meetings of the Dominion-Pro­ vincial Conferences in Ottawa where another such momentous gathering is starting the year’s initial weeks of 1946. In fact, whispers heard in this capital have insinuated that a definite settlement of this nation’s domestic issues resulting from these Dominion-Provincial discussions will result in a surprising degree of agreement, though the time and amount of unanimity may indicate some sharp differences of opinion which one estimate has hinted may be as much as $100,000,090 between the offers of the Federal Government and the wishes of the various Pro­ vincial Governments. However, it is emphasized in Ottawa that, while Provincial and Municipal needs have been curtailed j considerably wherever possible in the 1 last few years in order to free as much money as possible for the Fed­ eral Government's financial war re­ quirements, yet the outlays of the Federal Government in these crucial years, and the “pay as you go” policy during the war have been startling so that the drain on the average man and woman across Canada in taxation has been amaz­ ingly heavy. This may have been alright with the average man and woman when money was freely circu­ lated and earned in these past few “boom” years but plain . realism dictates that it may be an entirely different story when the “ ble'' 1TC CHECKED may burst in their faces and the “dance of the dollars” may become ’ an outdated tune, with initial feart ’ of unemployment having already j anrrpeared in some sections of thii country. These enormous outlays of the Federal Government can be rea lized when it is reported that in the first year after Confederaton, 1868 Canada’s total revenue was $13,687,- 928. per capita revenue $3.90, total expenditure $14,071,689, per capita expenditure $4.01, net debt at one of year $75,757,135, and net debt per capita $21.58. In the first yeai of World War II, 1939, Canada’s total revenue was $502,171,354, pei capita revenue $44.57', total expen diture $553,063,098 ,pcr capita ex penditure $49.09, net debt at enc of year $3,152,559,314, and net debt per capita $279,80, But in the latest official figures of such matters, it ii reported in Ottawa that Canada's total revenue in 1944 was 2,765,481,- 945, per capita revenue $240.34, to­ tal expenditure $5,322,717,737, pci capita expenditure $462.58, net debt at end of year $8,740,084,893 an6 u>t debt per capita $659.57. These Sgures are authentic and speall loudly. During the war years the financial | position of the provinces had shown 1 continuously improvemen t and the most important change in the finan­ cial framework of the provincia' revenue structure was the stabiliza- don of provincial revenues by the provisions of the Dominion-Provin­ cial Taxation Agreement Act, 1942 whereby each province agreed te vacate the personal income and cor­ poration tax fields during ’the war and^ti certain readjustment pcrioc’ thereafter in return for a Dominion subsidy equal to either, first, the province’s revenue from these sour ccs during fiscal year ended nearest Dec. 31, 1940, or second, the pro­ vince’s net debt scrvic e cost for same period, with a further provis­ ion of the Act guaranteeing provin- :cial gasoline tax revenues at the , 1940 level. This, in brief, everyday ■ language, was the basis of the wai 1 agreement. j Of course, the effects were tre- ; mendous. Indeed wherehs in 1939 j collections under the Income Wa-, j Tax Act, for fiscal year 1939 were 1 a total of $142,026,138, yet in the 1 latest official figures given out inOttawa such collections had reachedin 1944 a grand total of no lessthan $1,151,757,035.From these facts and others ob­tained in Ottawa, it is not difficultto observe why the Dominion-Pro­ vincial Conferences, another of which is starting off the 1946 year by meeting in this capital in Janu­ ary, are considered to be not only the most important gatherings of this sort but these meeting are evaluated by experts as absolutely of the greatest possible likely effect on the everyday lives of the men, women and children of this nation so that the success or failure of these meet­ ings may well decide the success or failure of Canada as a nation amongst nations since no nation, it is held, can accomplish its tasks on the international scene if it is un­ able to solves its own domestic prob- ». though it is most fortuntae that forecasts predict definite suc­ cess for these latest Dominion-Pro- cial meetings in Ottawa. RUMOURS IN CIRCULATION 1 ’ There are a number of rumours in 1 circulation and some of them have been spiked in Ottawa with official ’ or unofficial explanations. One ru- [ mour concerned the quality of coal ‘ and coke being sent to Canada but * the coal controller himself, E, J. Bruning, declared in Ottawa that I there was such a critical coal short­ age in United S tates that only about 67 per cent of normal imports came into Canada, though he took the occasion to stress that Canada was “getting a fair share of a fuel in short supply.” The only reason that the price seems high for such infer­ ior fuel was due, he emphasized, to the fact that, freight charges were the same regardless of the type of fuel being carried. Another rumour has claimed that coffee would be on the rationing list soon but unoffic­ ially it is pointed out in Ottawa that Canada has a year’s supply on hand so that there is no need for any such policy, with the dealers normally keepng about six or seven months’ supply on hand. Still another rumour has concerned sugar, but it is stated in Ottawa that sugar sup­ plies in this country depend not merely on conditions here but rather on world sugar supplies. It is re­ vealed that in 1939, the first year ol the war, sugar consumption in Can- ' ada was about 100 pounds a year ' per person, but now it is about 71 'pounds, with little likelihood of any ' increased supplies in 1946.

Instead of sugar plantations, the Japs had planted rice, cotton, etc., so that it will require some time before these areas get bac k into .sugar production, probably eighteen months or more, with one forecast being that sugar supplies may be more plentiful by spring of 1947. While sugar-beet production in Can­ ada has helped to an extent of about 16 to 20 per cent of the total, yet such increased supplies may not be obtained until close to the end of 1946. OUT-OF-WORK BENEFITS Out of an estimated 37,000 ex- servicemen who are still out of work after their discharge and who are seeking employment, no more than about 5,000 of theme- have drawn their “out-of-work" benefits during November, 1945. This has been re­ vealed in the capital where it has been reported that either on account of “false pride” or lack of know­ ledge of the provisions such benefits have not been taken advantage of by the m^n. A spokesman for the Government has urged that these men should not use up their gratui­ ties under such circumstances both in their own best interests as well as the nations 1 interests so that, while seeking employment and unable to get it, these “out-of-work" benefits should be accepted and used prop­ erly, these being provided and avail­ able for a maximum of one year during the 18 months following dis­ charge. It is >50 monthly for single men and >70 for married men with additional allowances for children. CULLODEN Mrs. T. J.

The week of next February 3 haa been set aside by the Health League of Canada as “Health Week’’—an observance dedicated to Canadian National, community and personal health. It is designed not only to draw attention to benefits which can be derived from good health, but also to point out that sickness, much of it preventable, today is costing Canada, directly and indirectly, an estimated billion dollars annually. This is an appalling sum for a country which appears destined to become one of the leading nations of the world. In promoting “Health Week” the Health League is seeking to draw the attention of all citizens to meth­ ods of disease prevention advocated by the various official health depart­ ments. The League also is seeking the co-operation of churches, schools and affiliated organizations, service clubs and other public-spirited or­ ganizations in spreading messages on health during that particular week.An outstanding feature of the “Week" will be the third annual “National Social Hygiene Day" which fails on the Wednesday, Feb­ ruary 6. This is an annual event sponsored by the League in co-oper­ ation with health departments. This “Day” will mark the opening of another season’s intensive anti- VD campaign, coinciding with a sim- lar observance in the United States. All co-operating publicity media will stress the serious problems created by the continued spread pi venereal diseases.

Inter- ment took place at the Sacred Heart Cemetery and the bearers were John Sheahan, James N. Henderson, Har­ old Duffy, Joseph Kirwin, Gordon Warden and John Williams. Lady Duiferin Chapter, I.O.D.E., met at the armouries on Jan. 7th, with a good attendance. Mrs. C. K. Long, the regent, presided. The sec­ retary’s and treasurer’s reports were read and adopted. Letters of thanks and appreciation were read from men of the navy and merchant mar­ ine who had received ditty bags sent for Christmas. Mrs. (Dr.) Branch of Rothsay, N.B., gave a splendid and interesting account of the work being done by the “Duke of Roth­ say Chapter, I.O.D.E." They have adopted six schools and have given a bursary of $200. At Lancaster Hospital, a concert is given every Thursday, putting on a quiz pro­ gramme, also musical numbers which are greatly enjoyed by the patients.

A vote of thanks to Mrs. Branch was given by Mrs. Baxter. A nominating committee named composed of Mesdames ker, Patterson and Thurtell to up slate of officers for 1946. An interesting article received from I.O.D.E. headquarters tells of the stupendous work done by the Order during the war: Comforts and amentities to British, Canadian and Allied seamen valued at a million dollars. Thousands of games and puzzles, millions of magazines and over a million new and donated books for seamen in hostels, hospi­ tals, the naval libraries and ships. To meet requests of Dutch, Polish, Norwegian and Greek seamen books have been translated in their qwn language and placed on the ships. 349 ships have been adopted and comforts supplied to them. A con­ stant flow of comforts have also been sent for sailors of the navy and seamen of the merchant navy. In Britain a letter received from a man on one of our corvettes reads: “Everything we have ever had given to us or done for us, seems to be’ connected with the I.O.D.E. in some way." Mrs. N. Daniel reported 17 articles of knitting brought in and Mrs. Richard Lose, 12 pieces of sewing. The meeting closed with the Natonal Anthem. HAMILTON SPEAKER TO ADDRESS KIWANIS Mr. R.
