Seagar, Archbishop of Huron of the appointment of Rev. Henry E. Merifield of Ingersoll, to be rector^of St. James* (Westmin­ ster), London. The apointment takes effect on April 1st and will replace Canon T. G. Wallace, who will re­ tire at that time. Rev. Mr. Merifield was ordained in 1926, a graduate of the Univer­ sity of Western Ontario and received his L.Th. Degree from Huron Col­ lege in 1926 and his B.D. and apolo­ getics from the University of West­ ern Ontario in 1936. He was lec­ turer for five year for apolegetics, comparative religion and Christian ethics at Huron College, resigning that post last Christmas. Mr. Merifield was rector at St. Mark’s Church, Windsor, and of Trinity Church, Brantford, and after successful pastorates in these par­ ishes, was appointed as curate-in- charge of St. James’, Ingersoll and became rector in July, 1938. At that time the church was heavily mort­ gaged and during his roctorate here the church has been entirely cleared of debt, there has been a splendid new organ and other fine gifts of church furniture installed and the bdilding completely renovated. The church here has some 32 separate units, a junior choir of some 40 voices who assist each Sunday, and more than 130 in the junior congre­ gation. There is also an outstanding beginners’ department in the Sunday School. The church organizations here are iff splendid condition and the entire parish is at the peak of its endeavors, aided and guided by the untiring spirit and energetic guid­ ance of its present rector. During the war years, some 250 members of the church volunteered for and saw active service in Canada antr overseas and parcels and gifts amounting to some $6,000 were sent out from the parish, together with personal letters sent regularly by the rector. In community enterprises and efforts, Mr. Merifield has always been most willing to give of his ser­ vices. He has been an active member of the Kiwanis Club and in Masonic circles and is a life member of the Othmar Grotto, Masonic Order. He has assisted in teaching in the local schools and is a member of the exe­ cutive of the Diocese of Huron and has served on several committees. He also served as the rural dean of Oxford. Outstanding in his parochial work however, is the record of the extremely large number of persons who have regularly called at the rectory over his years here for ad­ vice and guidance in problems. This, Mr. Merifield values as something of a real worthwhile effort. Rev. and Mrs. Merifield have two daughters, Donna and Joan, who are attending Victory Memorial School. Mr. Merifield has a brother, Rev. George Merifield, who is rector of Grace Episcopal Church, Mount Clemens, Michigan. As yet there is no announcement in regard to Mr. Merifield’s succes­ sor here.

A communication was received from the Citizens’ Advisory Com­ mittee, suggesting that the council secure another engineer for com­ parative figures on the sewerage project. .Ingersoll Rehabilitation Committee wrote asking for $200 and request­ ing confirmation of their request for $900 during 1946. Donald Mackenzie, secretary of the Ingersoll, North and West Ox­ ford Agricultural Society, requested the usual grant to that organization. Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce advised the council that they were prepared to provide $750 in 1946 to­ ward the cost of Town Planning if the town council would set aside a similar amount. A letter from the Ingersoll Branch of Canadian Legion outlined their plans for the erection of a memorial hall and asking that the council grant $5000 toward the building fund. In committee reports, it was rec- commended that the firm of Gorrie and Storrie, consulting engineers, be requested to visit Ingersoll with Dr. Berry to consult with the council on sewerage matters. In the report of Councillor Spay­ en, it was recommended that Coun­ cillor A. R. Horton and the mayor be representatives at directors* meet­ ings of the Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce and that $3000 be grant­ ed to the Canadian Legion for theirxbuilding fund with the suggestion | that the balance of $2000 be pro- ' vided by the 1947 council, to meet their request. A by-law to provide for the rais­ ing of monies for taxation was spon­ sored by Councillors Horton and Spaven. The tax rate was set at 40 mills on the dollar to raise the nec­ essary $124,262.64, for the carrying on of business as budgeted for in the estimates. A breakdown of the expenditures shows increases in grants for Rec­ reation Centre,, $1000; Rehabilita­ tion Committee, $700; Canadian Le­ gion, $3000; others, $600.

Wilker sang the number, "No One Ever Cared for Me Like Jesus,” with Mrs. B. G. Jenvey at the piano. As it was memorial day for Fran­ ces Willard,' founder of the W.C.T. U., Mrs. James Tattersall read a brief sketch of her life and Mrs. J. Ellery led- 4he-'znembers in repeating many statements made by Miss Wil­ lard, which were called "Golden Words of Wisdom.” Capt.

Tattersall and the treasurer, Mrs. B. Jenvey, gave their reports. A contribution is to be sent to the treasurer of the campaign held in December.

MARCH 7th, 1946 Money For Veterans Must Not Be Wasted Aside from the Department of Finance which is responsible for servicing the naitonal debt, by long odds the biggest' spender at Ottawa today is the new Department of Veterans* Affairs, states The Financial Post. Even last year, with the war not yet over and its biggest activity ahead, DVA was far in the lead in ordinary expenditures with a bill for over $81 millions compared with the $54.6 millions for Post Office and $20 millions f<A Na­ tional Revenue, the next in line. Military pensions. Veterans' Land Act and hospi­ tals, insurance, gratuities and other services for ex-service personnel all come under this department. Comments The Post editorially: “Parliament owes it to the hard-pressed taxpayer to make sure that all the new big spending of DVA is necessary, that its operations are wise. But Parliament’s re­ sponsibility in this case does not end with the tax­ payer. There is also the veteran, the youth of this country who sacrificed three, four and sometimes five years of normal life and who now have first claim on the new department at Ottawa. “Every dollar wasted by DVA, every hospital or veteran’s house or farm established in the wrong place, every unjustified pension paid out, directly affects the returned soldier, airman or sailor who needs help. Parliament must make doubly sure that those dollars entrusted to DVA are spent to the very best advantage. The country can afford no bungling, no waste, nothing but topmost efficiency in its handling of veterans’affairs.” Looking Back — In the — Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario 36 YEARS AGO Thursday, March 3 lit, 1910 Miss Jean Ross of Embrop* is visiting in town with friends.

A Town prows Up When one recalls that a few years ago Boards pf Trade and Chambers of Commerce of dozens of Canadian towns and cities were in hot competi­ tion with each other to induce new industries to settle in their communities, the report from Guelph, Ontario, that that city is doing nothing to attract a new automobile industry, comes in the “man-bites-dog" class of news. The chairman of the city’s industrial commission is quoted as say­ ing: “If we invite a factory as big as that we are inviting labor trouble. What we want is a flock of. of small industries.** This statement may sound like heresy to the enthusiastic local booster, who thinks of progress as a good in itself without regard to its direction or results, but those who believe that an ideal town should be something other than a place where one earns a living will find a good deal of com­ mon sense in Guelph’s attitude. They look on such places as Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Hamilton and Windsor as necessary growths, but they have no desire to live in them or to have their own towns emulating them. Like a person^ a town develops character through experience and observation. It learns that the good life is not dependent on material wealth" and a continual striving to be more prosperous than the neighbors. It reaches maturity when it can decide calmly that the loss of its own integrity is too great a price to pay for the chance of amassing greater wealth.—The Printed Word. Last Thursday evening some thirty friends of Mr. Gordon Hay gathered at the Mansion House and tendered him a farewell banquet prior to his removal to Montreal. Col. J. €. Hegler was toast­ master.

Urges Farmers To Order Help Now In view of the probability that it will still be dif­ ficult for farmers to secure experienced help this year, due in part to the expansion of peacetime activities in other industries, Hon. Humphrey Mit­ chell, Minister of Labour, is urging farmefs all over Canada to place their orders for farm help at once with the nearest local ofifice of the National Employment Service or nearest Agricultural Ser­ vice. By indicating particulars of their requirements to the local agencies dealing with farm labour, farmers will be able to^help the Department of Labour, the National Employment Service and ' themselves very considerably. Individual letters are being sent by the Minister of Labour to all farmers with reference to the shortage of farm labour during the war and the ^possibility of a dearth of experienced farm workers this season. The latter, urges farmers to employ labour that may be available now, and points out that not only will increased winter work help to reduce the farmers* labour requirements during thebusy spring and summer months, but will go a long way to ensure that the farmer will have efficient and steady help familiar with the particular oper­ ations of the farm at times when efficient help is most needed. 11 YEARS AGO Thursday, March 7th, 1935 Miss Honor Bright of Toronto, was a week-end guest of Miss Ruth Cuthbertson.

Healthy human brains, like healthy human' bodies, get hungry. Your children's minds «s well as their bodies simply must be fed. Your newspaper offers you and your whole family food for thought, men­ tal food for hungry minds. President William Lambert was in charge of the A.Y.P.A. meeting oin Monday evening, with Marion Jackson presiding at the piano. Jessie Clay­ ton read the Scripture lesson. Posters done by the members for the lecture to be given by Prof, An­ derson, were judged by Miss Betty Crawford, who was introduced by Alfred Wood. Winners: First and second were Wilfred Allen and Nellie Mit­ chell, who received A. Y. P. A. pins. We inevitably tend towards those of our better acquaintance. We seek their friendship because we are drawn towards them as having com­ mon likes and dislikes. In their com­ pany we are happy; our discourse is friendly; on common ground we have much to talk about But not all friendship is of this character. Most of us like variety and variety in friendship can come only by consorting with those of en­ tirely different character. Sometimes two characters complement each other, drawn on one another for something lacking in the makeup of ecch. The dominant person can find relaxation in the company of the gently disposed,- but not with one whose equal dominance might cause a clash of wills. The gentle person, knowing the strength that resides in the forthright, pushful character, finds that strain' helpful in acquir- *ng what he needs, or putting bluntly before the world, what he knows is right but lacks the force that would thrust itself forward tozset it right. How often do we see the gentle and self-effacing .woman married, and generally quite happily mar­ ried, to the vigorous and forceful male? And vice versa of course. The world shakes its sage head and won­ ders how he or she can put up with the brute or the shrew. It is usually because each recognizes needs and uses the strength exerted by the other. Zantippe was undoubtedly a famous scold but had she been the sweetly gentle and adoring wife, would the dreamer Socrates ever have reached his classes in time? Would his wisdom ever have reached further thar^ his own teaming brain? Strong-minded Zantippe saw that it did. It is pleasant to be with those of like tastes and dispositions, but it seldom induces fresh thought or gives impetus to vigorous thinking. . Opposition does that. To use one’s physical strength to do hard work makes muscle and the ability to do still harder work. The same rule applies to the mind. To test one’s thought against an opponent’s makes real thinking a necessity. It becomes easier with practice, enables one to listen, to an argument opposed to one’s own and lift from it what appears reasonable, while, if we are wise, eliting something not quite sound in oun own argument. So we bring the mind to be a more perfect comprehension of the whole argu­ ment. Debates for young people are ex­ cellent practice and should bq en­ couraged. They make for a quickness of the mind to seize on an error in logic, or a sure point of proof. Ar­ gument that clings tenaciously to its own line of thought and refuses to entertain another’s, is fatal to pro­ gression. One stands still mentally, with < head full of preconceived lotions and a heart full of harsh feeling towards the opporing party. No one feels happy-to be opposed all the time, but the spirit of fight which is dominant in most of us, and un­ happily displays itself too often in war, can be used to advantage in a verbal duel. It can, with the proper respect shown to another's right to his opinion, be inducive of instruct­ ion, amusement and a mind's en­ largement. To reduce argument to acriminous retort, and invective is, to say the least, poor sportsmanship. The rules of the game, here as else- where, must be observed to get any good of the contest.

In the last few months the world has found out the bitter truth: that victory isn’t enough; we’ve got to make it work. Famine is an ugly word. To die of sheer hunger must be one of the worst things that could befall ' a human being. To get a little weaker each day, to watch death come to your children and loved ones . . . this, indeed, must be the" dregs of human misery. In Europe there are a hundred million starved and half-starved people. Millions are homeless, thou- and forsaken, waiting for food, sands crippled, wounded, battered and forsaken, waiting for food. If ’ the people of Europe are to survive, we must send more food to them. Not next summer or after an­ other crop, but now—Death won’t fl This past week has seen 'the black cloud of famine lowering over the ‘ whole Continent The people of Britain were dis- ! mayed by the news that their already |i meagre rations were to be further 1 reduced, even lower than at any I time during the war. They, who I haven’t eaten any too well for six years, were told that their cooking fat- rations would -be reduced fur­ ther, and bread would return to its dark wartime, hue with a possibility of it being rationed. There would be less bacon, poul­ try and eggs. No more dried eggs would be available. (To British housewives dried eggs have been a lifesaver.) Meat would be kept the same, about 25 cents-worth a week, this includes 2% slices of bacon per week and one shell-egg a month. £ . jrjtflse- 'BttthSitredtictions are being 'made in order to allow more to go to the ravaged lands across the Chan- ► nel. Answering this recent desperate appeal for food for Europe, Canada will ship an additional 140 million bushels of wheat and tons of flour. We have already shipped 200 mil­ lion bushels overseas since August, 1945. This past week President Tru- . man took drastic steps to help a very wide-spread famine in Europe. The U.S.A, will eat dark bread this year, and they have been warned that foods will be scarce for months ahead. The President stated that, if necessary, meat rationing would be reimposed there. Australia has set a target for shipment to Britain of a million tons of wheat, eggs, dried fruit and meat, as fast as ships can take it. New South Wiles has already at dockside 45 million bushels of I, g wheat Flour mills are working at ;| IF ^eir maximum capacity. More than £ J? 800 branches of the Red Cross are gl working for a food-fo'r-Britain fund. jL * Every housewife in Canada is ur- |i | gently requested to watch all waste I" in her home.

In the meantime there is an urgent call from England for infants’ clothing.

Work on this project alone will keep us busy all through the spring and early autumn. Red Cross is at this time consoli­ dating its warehouse space, and ask­ ing workers throughout the province to send in their requisitions for materials and wool before March 10. “We have all had the satisfact­ ion”, Mrs. Knight concluded “that comes from working to help others.

The program committee were in charge of serving a very tasty lunch consisting of sandwiches and cookies. The president, Bud Bow­ man, was in charge of the meeting. After singing, “Jesus Loves Me”, Tommy T Jfer, the secretary, read the minutes. Nineteen boys answered the roll call. Membership fees were paid at this time. The attendance record prepared by Mrs. W.

Joyce, R. Muir, Mr. Rob­ erts, P. L. Smith, Ronald Billings, Orval Gardiner and Mr. Robertson of Halibury. President Howard Horton conduct­ ed the business. Keith Geddie led the sing-song assisted by Ross Big­ ham at the piano. Master/Ronald Billings pleased everyone with two piano selections. Mr. Percy Tuck, president of the Lions Club, addressed the gathering concerning the proposed hospital, .which the local Lions Club intends to build. The speaker praised the Y’s Men’s Club for their success in sponsoring the Community Centre. “This illus­ trates what can be done when' a group of citizens get and work to­ gether,” Mr Tuck remarked. “We have to become town centre , con­ scious and put every endeavour to place Ingersoll back on the map and to assure its former place as the sixth exporting town in Canada. Mr. Tuck commented that the pre­ sent trend is towards decentraliza­ tion of industry, and thus industral- ists are looking for places in which to establish their plants. “What can we offer them?”,’ the speaker en­ quired. Sewage, hospitals, schools and like items were the first factors to be considered by these manufac­ turers. The speaker stated that the Lions Club had been seeking a project which would be of most benefit to the town. A swimming pool had been considered, but it was decided that other matters deserved a more note­ worthy place. It was firest thought that a wing maght be added to the hospital, but this was found to be impractical, so it was decided to build an entire new hospital. This would be a $150,000 project of which the club itself plans to raise $30,000. The raising of the funds would be conducted over a period of two years. Mr. Tuck emphasized that every citizen of the town and sur­ rounding district would have to be­ come hospital conscious and that the committee would have to have their support in order to make the project a success. President Howard Horton express­ ed the thanks of all present to Mr. Tuck for his informative address. At this time the meeting was turned over to Gordon Pittock, chairman of the Community Centre project, who stated that the purpose of the meeting was to form the Ing­ ersoll Recreational Centre Company. R. G. Start was called upon to perform the necessary legal steps. Mr. Start read the clauses of the charter and explained certain of the contents. The general by-laws were read and the duties of the various officers pointed out. Other related factors including election of officers, members and members’ meetings, votes and voting, banking by-laws, and the appointment of an auditor were also discussed. The following were elected as offi­ cers of the Ingersoll Recreational Centre Company: President, Gordon Pittock; Vice-President, Louis, Mar­ tin; Secretary, Allin Deacon; Treas­ urer, Ross Bigham; General Man­ ager, William Garbutt; Directors, E.

SMITH LOANS *20 to *1,0 00 Young Celia Bartlett has come hometo Lathamtown and a family she hardlyknows. "Those Crazy Bartletts." peoplealways called them. Her parents, calledMa* Sue and Buzz by all their children,had led an unusual life. Celia had beenadopted by her aunt when a baby be­cause the Bartletts were trouping invaudeville and that was no place tor ababy. When they had retired to theLambert home, other children came• along—Pete, Honey and Susan. Celia Issow back among aU the crazy Bartletts,and she feels unwanted and terribly, lonely. lT.cn there is young, red-hairedRusty Randolph, a house guest, whomshe doesn't seem to like. She doesn’t, know why. either. I Celia laughed and said, “OfI course not This is too absurd fori words! Everybody walking on tip-'toe to keep from annoying a ser-i vant—goodnesll"i Rusty said, unexpectedly grave, "Don't take it too lightly. Therebe some reason—” He broke'off as she looked up at him. puz­ zled.“But what earthly reason couldthere be?" she asked.Rusty gave her a friendly littlepat .pn the shoulder and said, •*'There''Coulda't he, of course. Runalong and have your session withRuby Pearle. And yell If you needreinforcements! ”•TU do that" Celia told him,laughing, as she pushed the swing­ing door open.The kitchen was a big, old-fash­ ioned room. There was' an enor­ mous open fireplace, with signs thatonce upon a time the cooking forthe big house had been done insidethis fireplace.Before the fireplace, in an oldrocker that was cushioned with redand white checked gingham, satRuby Pearle, her snow "head-rag”emphasizing the black satin of her skin and the muddy brown of her “Please try not to hate me," he said quietly. She looked up at Celia and said,’ "without getting up, “Set and rest■yo’self,” motioning toward a chairthat was the mate to her own.She was smoking an old corncob pipe, and foj a full moment shestudied Celia before she spoke. Hervoice was Ipw-pitched, with an al­most liquid note. "You don’t knowwhat’s de matteh wid yo* mammy,does you?”Celia asked quickly, "What do - _y<u mean?”Rtibv Pearle nodded.T knowed you didn’t.” she saidQuietly, "Dat's how come I asked?ou to come in here so’s I could tell dot yo* mammy ain't to be wearied with nothing. Does you hear me?Nothing!"The last word came so sharply,and with a tone of such authority,that Celia bristled indignantly."I haven't the least idea what you’re talking about—”"I going to tell you,” Ruby Pearle Interrupted her calmly. "Idon’t want no mo' company herelessen it's going to be somebodywhat can make yo’ mammy laughand be happy, spite o' de pain."Celia shivered as though a cold wind had blown over her. Herhands clenched in her lap and shewaited, frightened by the old wom­an's tone and manner.'Yo' pappy know what all her,”" Ruby Pearle wenj oY. niter a little, t *but yo' mammy don't know yo’ BpappjAnow.

Hit’s»o he can be wid yo' mammy when ahi’s having one of dem bad times.” Celia was white and shaken, andRuby Pearle waited a moment for* her to pull herself together. Andthen Ruby Pearle said quietly,'Dese here mens what’s coming to- morrow, Miss Celia — does youknow ’em?”"No. Ruby Pearle. I’ve neverseen them,” answered Celia."Den us watches dem,” said Ruby Pearle grimly. ’Us watches’em clost And if dey wearies MissMa* Sue us makes ’em pull outenhere—quick-like! ”"Dat’s all I got to tell you. MissCelia,’’ she said flatly. “You ain’t to Jet yo* mammy know ’bout dis.I be watchin' you—you be careful.’’Celia stood up, hesitated a mo­ment and then turned and wentblindly out of the kitchen, not to­ward the front of the house, butthrough the kitchen door and out into the glory of the summer night.The house threw its rich blackshadow against the moonlight; agreat round silver moon spilled itslight extravagantly over the land­scape. But Celia had no eyes for the summer night. She had comeface to face with a thousand timesworse than sudden death; and itshook her so badly that greatwracking sobs tore through her.She did not know when Rusty Randolph came and sat beside her. She only knew that when, exhaust­ed at last with the shock of hergrief, she sat up, Rusty was theresmiling at her in the moonlight,offering her his handkerchief, andwith it the wordless comfort of his presence. ‘Please try not to hate me,” hesaid quietly. T know listening out­side keyholes is a scandalous thing,but I was a little uneasy aboutwhat action Ruby Pearle mighttake, and I thought I'd hang around in case you had to have protec­tion!"Celia lifted her tear-stained facefrom his handkerchief and lookedat him. In the moonlight that fil­tered through the thick-leaved branches above them she could scarcely more than guess at hisexpression but cried out sharply,'You listened?"Celia caught her breath and oncemore the tears came.•But it’s so cruel! So awful for Buzz to love her so much and notbe.able to do anything for her!”’You think his love doesn’t helpher? You think knowing how com­pletely he is hers, in every thoughtand action, doesn't make the paineasier to bear?” asked Rusty. 'Oh, I suppose—but she loveshim so much and she knows he’ssuffering a thousand deaths for ev­ery pain she endures. It’s—it’s aw­ful to love someone like that!”cried Celia wildly.Rusty looked at her and shook his head a little. 'I’m disappointed in you, Celia.You're not really their daughterafter all, are you? Don’t you sup­pose they’d rather have had thehappiness they’ve known, even ifit has to end like thic. than never to have known their kind of love?”he demanded almost sternly.She looked at him uneasily. “Youthink they've been happy enoughto make up for this?" Celia looked at him questioning-,ly. Rusty looked down at her and gave her a wry little smile, buthis eyes remained bleak. I'll have to tell you somethingOf my dad's story to make you un­derstand that, won’t I?" he said gently. "Well. I’m sure he wouldn’tmind. You see, he and Buzz werebosom pals. The fellows in theshow used to call Buzz the bestdressing-room comedian in thebusiness. No matter how dullthings got. Dad and Buzz could dig up something to laugh at. Wellwhen Buzz and Mary Sue weremarried, it left Dad sort of highand dry, and he was easy pickin’sfor—the lady wbp became mymother.” He was silent for a moment, his eyes on the wet blade of grass hewrs pulling to pir-es between hisrestless Angers Celia sat very still, her heartburning wtth pity tor him, yet knowing somebcw deep within herthat it helped him to talk aboutsomething that had rankled in hissoul for long years The moon had crept Higher now, ■<swinging; across the star-sprinkled sky so that she could see his face more clearly.He looked up at her and hisface was taut and set, his eyesdark pools of ugly memory.“He—shot himself, when I wasfifteen,” he said quietly, yet there was something very moving andalmost terrible in that quiet "I—saw him do it”She caught her breath on a littlegasp and her hand went out to him in a swift, impulsive littlegesture that seemed to comfort him.He caught her hand in both his ownand held it closely, as though justthe touch of her hand, warm and confiding and gentle, consoled him. Rusty still had tight hold ofCelia’s hand. Her heart went out tohim in his account of his father’ssuicide."It was supposed to be an acci­dent, of course,” he said, and there was something, a dry biting toneto his voice. "That was the wayshe wanted it to seem. A huntingaccident The gun was supposed tohave gone off as he climbed a fence on a hunt — only — I wasnot far behind him. He thoughthe was alone, poor old Dad.”Once again the voice that twistedher heart with pity broke off, andRusty looked down at her hand, still held between his own. One of his thumbs mored back and rorth slowly across the-back of herhand, a little gesture of which hewas quite unaware. Celia made no effort to concealher tears, and at last he rousedhimself from the flood of painfulmemories evoked by his words andlooked at her in bewilderment“Oh, Celia, you mustn’t — I've made you cry again, haven't I? I’mterribly sorry,” he said contritely.She smiled through her tearsand tried to steady her voice tosay, "It’s only lhat—I’m so terribly sorry for him — and for her, be­cause they both missed so much.”He nodded in understanding.“You see now why I say that whatBuzz and Mary Sue have, and havehad since the day they first saw each other, is worth all they'vegone through these last two or threeyears?”"Of course,” she told him sim­ply. He stood up suddenly and in the moonlight that filtered throughthe branches above their heads hesaid huskily, "And you see, too,why I want no part of this lovebusiness for myself, don't you? Imay have enough of her in me to torture the thing I loved, or wasfoolish enough to love me. So I'mplaying the lone wolf from here onout”Celia stood up, too, and faced .him, her head erect "I suppose it’s wrong for you tofeel that way," she said. “Ormaybe you’re right I wouldn'tknow. I fee] pretty much the sameway myself.”Rusty nodded, his face set "You've been hurt too, haven'tyou? Somebody you cared aboutdid you a dirty trick.*' His tonemade it a statement "The—man I loved—liked some­one else better," she admittedhuskily, and added hastily, "But ofcourse he didn't know I loved him.I mean we were not engaged—wehadn’t even talked about being in love. It was just that we had funtogether and we had the same am­bition and liked the same things. Ithink it might have been prettyswell If maybe — well, he's married now and that's that.” Rusty nodded. "And so you’refighting shy of the love bug, too."he said with a deliberate attemptat lightness, as though the emotion which they had just experienced to­gether had become unbearable. Cells tried desperately hard tolaugh. “Oh, I'm immune now.” shetold him, with an effort at light-nets that tried to match his own. “You little idiot!” he protestedalmost violently. "Don't you knowthat's when you’re most apt to gelhurt?- You've heard about the re-bouni thing, haven't you?" Now she managed the laugh, butIt wasn't very convincing.(TO BE CONTINUED) The Edmonton Journal tells us that a lake just east of Sexsmith, Alberta, was drained some years ago for the purpose of .making good agricultural land out of it The scheme wasn't a success, so now "Ducks Unlimited" will dam it up and return it to the use for which nature first intended it. In a simple matter like this planning does little harm. True, there was a waste of time and effort, but if, in this pro­ cess,—people grow wiser from ex­ perience, they will . not make the same liiistakes again. For this we ought to be thankful. Once upon a time it was proposed that Canada, the Argentine and the United States should get together, not^exactly to fix the price of wheat but to provide orderly marketing. These things usually start in a mild sort of way—their teeth grow as they get older and the big bad wolf emerges in the end. Well it was tried but right from the start, for some reason or other, something went wrong. Russia had to sell wheat and the price in British markets fell. Argentine did not seem very anxious to carry out her end of the bargain and we were left pretty well as we were, each playing the game as was thought best. Right now this is one of the things for which we ought to be profoundly grateful. Years after, in 1939, there came a war. It was a long war, it destroyed a great deal of the grain growing capacity of the continent of Europe. The task of providing the food of the world will be a stiff ontf for the next few years. It is not only a question of feeding Europe but the scarcity is quite marked in In­ dia, China and Japan. This story has its lesson; when groups of nations undertake to re­ strict their production or move in that direction in the hope of con­ trolling prices it has as large a measure of evil as when cartels, in other lines of production, do the same thing. We cannot read lectures to industry on the immortality of getting together to enhance prices when it is pretty clearly evident that if we had the chance we would be in it up to our ears. It is Jack of opportunity, not lack of inclination which prevents it. Cartels, restrictions^ controls and government buying and selling will never save us from anything, the sooner we get rid of them the bet­ ter. The^olution will come from ■breaking down barriers—not from erecting new ones. We shall be helped too by a recognition of the fact that we live in a market econ­ omy and the market, in the end, determines the price. The Winnipeg Grain Exchange has been closed, so far as wheat is concerned, for years. Whether or not it had a value in wartime may be arguable but over a period of years the open market On Thursday last, the Earl of Athlone presented the Military Cross, awarded to Capt. L. R. (Rusty) Smith, to Mrs. Smith, at an investi­ ture at Government House, Ottawa. The Late Capt Smith served with the R.C.A.C. and received fatal in­ juries in Italy. He was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd F, Smith, Bell street, who also attended the ceremony on Thursday with their son, Cpl. George F. Smith, R.C.A.F. Accompanying Mrs. Smith at the investiture was her three-year-old daughter, Linda, on whom (he medal was pinned immediately following the ceremony. While in Ottawa, Mrs. Smith and party were accorded every assist­ ance and courtesy possible by K. R. Daniel, M.P., for Oxford. gave us a fairer price than could otherwise have been secured. The thermometer is not responsible for extremes of either heat or cold it merely registers them. The Grain Exchange does not determine prices it records them. The trouble with other forms of marketing is that, with their acceptance, economic forces are no longer working in the open, the grower has no idea of the course of events. A free market measures real values, nothing else does.

Water-of the devotional, ■One of the chief aims of the National Film Board's Rural Circuits is to help solve the problems of Canadian farm women. As part of this program a new film, Kitchen Come True, is being shown in the rural areas of Canada to demon­ strate how the old-fashioned farm kitchen may be transformed into an attractive and convenient centre for housework. Kitchen Come True rshows that on many farms where the bams and agricultural machinery arp up-to-date and efficient, the housewife is still carrying on her domestic work with the methods and equipment of her grandmother. In this film the drawbacks of a typical old-style kitchen are pointed out, and ways of eliminating them are described in detail. Suggestions are given for the arrangement of furni­ ture to save steps, for the provision of adequate cupboard space and for getting rid of the common sources of dirt and catch-all for rubbish. Several of the improvements shown in this film depend on the availability of hydro power. Films on rural electrician such as Valley of The Tennessee, which the National* Film Board has also shown on all its Rural Circuits are consequently being distributed to encourage this first step towards better living con­ ditions on the farm. The ideas demonstrated in most of the films shown on the Rural Cir­ cuits, however, may be more easily adopted than these large scale plans. Canning methods, meal planning and the preparation of school lunches are among the subjects covered. Dis­ trict Home Economists frequently speak at showings of films connect­ ed with their special interests. Besides bringing information and new ideas to the individual house­ wife, the Rural Circuits are making a contribution to the social life of women in farming districts. Women’s Institutes in many communities are sponsoring the film showings, which have become a monthly feature of their programs. Special showings are also arranged on request for Home and School Associations and other organizations in which women play an important part Wifie—“What's the idea of pok­ ing a broom in the baby’s face this morning?” Husband—“I just wanted to get him used to kissing his grandfather.” from gold raitung.It h up to m to keep this shared ... 1.

THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MAR. 7, 1946 'O T T A W A WEEK BY WEEK — By Doan Wilien — HEIR-APPARENT TO THE THRONE CULLODEN CANADA AND CRISIS With urgent appeals 6f a desper­ ate need for more and more food being brought to the very doorstep of the Canadian Cabinet in Ottawa by representatives of foreign govern- m<mts as well as official spokesman of the Canadian Government, it is quite apparent, in simple, everyday language, that one of the most ser­ ious and most pressing problems facing the Federal Government at this time is to solve this without in­ troducing any drastic measures with­ in Canada itself since this country must answer these urgent appeals quickly because the extent of the actual degree of this greatest food crisis of modern times is not, per­ haps, known to a great many people of this country. This is no exagger­ ation and it is only possible to rea­ lize its full impact or shock by con­ versations with officials and others “on the spot” in this nation’s capi­ tal. Millions and millions of men, wo­ men and children are confronted .with a slow process of hunger and eventual illness or death on account of the scarcity of ordinary essen­ tials of food. It is not a case of feeding the masses of occupied countries but of providing such bare necessities of life to the people of friendly nations, including our own Motherland. In fact Britain’s posi­ tion would not be so bad, it is hinted in Ottawa, if she retained the food already shipped there and to be sent. However, Britain has already sent one and a quarter million tons of food to Europe and she has been playing her proper part in helping her less fortunate neighbours on the continent where devastation as well as dislocation caused by the war have created a most serious situation this being aggravated by repeated droughts or adverse weather condi­ tions, by a world-wide shortage of fertilizers, and by the worst possible shortages of cereals, wheat deficits and rice shortages in various sections of the world. Indeed, reports have been reaching Ottawa lately of strong complaints in Britain against the Government’s provisions of less •and less fata, bread, bacon, poultry, eta., including publie meetings ex­ pressing great anger at these sharp restrictions though the .war ended several months ago. .But, while the- anger of the masses in Bri tain may be expressed by protests at meetings in various parts of the country, yot in other lands such methods may not be followed, with the frank declaration that trouble may be caused by toleration of famine in other countries so that quick meas­ ures to alleviate the situation of the threatened world-wide food crisis must be taken without undue delay by various governments, including the Canadian Government For some time now it has been known in circles close to the Govern­ ment in this nation’s capital, that the Federal Cabinet has been consid­ ering ways and means to play its proper role in this tragic situation in order tb bring about a better­ ment of the severe shortages. Dis­ cussions have been long and at times quite difficult since it is held-that a proper balance must be found be­ tween supplying abroad all the food which Canada can produce and spare for export and maintaining a policy of satisfactory provisions of food for the masses in this country. The outcries which accompanied the re- introduction of meat rationing in Canada have, not been forgotten though there was no alternative at that time since it has now been dis­ closed that during the first three- month period following rationing Canada exported no less than 275,- 600,000 pounds of meat overseas, most of which went to the Mother­ land, as against 248,600,000 pounds in the corresponding period of 1944. Moreover, during the whole of 1945 Canada shipped 714,220,000 pounds of meat to Britain, though there had been an actual 15 per cent decline i nmeat production froin the preced­ ing year. Now, the aim is to ship about 794,233,000 pounds of meat in 1946. n cuunmui; portrait ox n.n-n. rrincess raizaoem. heir to the throne,taken by the nrtlrt-photographer, Cecil Beaton, at Buckingham Palace.Her Royal Highness is wearing a rose colored lace and tulle picturedress. embroidered In rose and gold with blue butterflies. of sleepChase's oiuy size Dr. Nerve 00 pills—GOcta. 180 pills—>1.50 NO OPTIMISM There have been persistent reports that Canada may be Enabled to pro­duce automobiles evA cheaper than the United States in Uje postwar per­iod, but inquiries il this capital bring forth the inrormation that, though production costa here may be lower than those prevailing, yet it is most unlikely that Canada would be able to produce cars as cheaply as the United States, with none other than Reconstruction Minister Howe backing up this view, explaining that Canadian automotive industry is op­ erating on a seven-months basis as compared with American industry on a twelve-month basis, adding that the United States plants turned out a greater unit volume of vehicles. INQUIRY IS SIGNIFICANT about 3u,G00 as compared with 4,000 in the year before World War II or the peak year of 1943 when the R.C.A.F, had a personnel of 206,000. It will cost now, in peacetime, an es­ timated >59,000,000 a year as com­ pared with >7,000,000 in the year before the war, Then again, it should also be noted that the R.C.A.F. will retain its own separate identity whenever one Minister may have charge of the army, navy and air forces in this country. IT IS SAID IN OTTAWA "There is too much concern ex­ pressed in our parliaments over pigs and horses and not enough over our children,” said Major Ian Eiseh- hardt, 'National Director of the Can­ adian Physical Fitness Programme, during an address in Ottawa ... “I am for a free and untrammelled world press,” declared Gordon Gray- don, Member of Parliament and a former Acting Leader of the Official Opposition in House of Commons, as he spoke to the Canadian Club in this capital. am not at all convinced that we can have permanent and I healthy international understanding without it” . . . Husbands' are all alike, they have different faces so that we can tell them apart. Our problem is not to keep them young but to make them act their age.” These words were stated in Ottawa by Byrne Hope Sanders, Director of Consumer Branch, Wartime Prices and Trade Board . . . “The young people of to-day have a far broader international outlook than the young people of yesterday,” emphasized Robert M. C. King, Premier of the Older Boys’ Parliament in Ottawa. “It will aid them in future world relationships and may be contribut­ ing factor to world peace,” he add­ ed .. . “England is bruised and bat­ tered—and oh, so hungry—” This was stated here by Mrs. W. B. Mac- Dermott in speaking her experiences, in Great Britain and indicating the great lack of food abroad.—(Repro­ duction Prohibited.) —/ r------------ We have often wondered why a man who has been taken in is so often apt to feel put out Pte.

'After feeding for a short time, the female June beetles will start bur­ rowing into the soil to deposit the large, white, oval eggs, principally in grass-covered soil, often exceeding one-quarter million per acre. In a period of about one month, or prin­ cipally during July, these eggs will hatch into white grubs which will continue to feed on crop roots until September but although these first year grubs will be very numer­ ous, they will not cause important injury in the area concerned until 1947. During that year the grubs will be In the second year of growth* in which they feed ravenously from May to October and cause severe losses to crops which may not be fully recognized until harvest time. This constitutes an outbreak of white grubs which occur every third year in infested-areas where white grubs and June beetles are economic pests. Since white grubs are most des. tractive during the second year stages’it is necessary to apply con­ trol precautions before the occurr­ ence of these stages, or during 1946. This is particularly important in the Niagara Peninsula to prevent a re­ currence during 1947 of the very devastating outbreak which occurred in the area during 1944. June beetles can readily be con­ trolled on foliage by applying ar­ senate of lead spray at the rate of 1 pound to 20 gallons of water applied about May 20th but the im­ mature stages or .white grubs are not so readily controlled. Literature and general information on white grabs and June beetles may be obtained from the Provincial Entom­ ologist, Guelph, Ontario, or the Do­ minion Entomologist, Dominion De­ partment of Agriculture, Ottawa.
