The weather conditions prevented many from attending -with the result that an estimated attendance of little more than 1000 were on hand to see the splendid exhibition. There was a full entry in all classes with over 100 horses being shown. The Ingersoll Y’s Men’s Boys’ and Girls’ Band was in atten­ dance and provided spirited musical numbers throughout the afternoon. The general consensus of opinion was to the effect that the Ingersoll Turf Club set a new high standard | for exhibitions. The work of Torry Gregg, of radio station CKNX, Wingham, as master of ceremonies, was an outstanding feature. He had the happy knack of knowing the ex­ hibitors and in making his announce­ ments, gave decided satisfaction. In commenting on the show, Presi­ dent Burton Harris expressed satis­ faction with the proceedings and said he realized the weather condi­ tions kept a great number of sup­ porters from attending. A number of the horses that were entered did not show as transportation in the cold was not favorable. The judging was done by-Mr. Joseph Slattery of Toronto, in the saddle and hunter class; by Mr. Wm. Lowry of Acton, in the heavy horse classes and by Mr. Hugh Darrow of Hickson, in the light division. The work of the judges was said to be highly satis­ factory. Deserving of special mention was the driving of Mrs. Wallace Munro of Embro, who has not taken any active part in exhibitions of this kind for the past three years, because of illness. Entered in the lady’s driving class, she displayed real ability as a driver, taking first prize. During the afternoon Mayor Chas. W. Riley gave a brief address of welcome and K. R. Daniel, M.P., also? spoke expressing congratula­ tions to the Turf Club for their fine exhibition and capable way the affair was arranged.

The matter was brought to a climax b'yh resolution by Councillors Watson and Spaven, to the effect “that the Mayor and Town Clerk be authorized to sign an agreement with Mr. House of Wartime Housing Limited, to build veterans' houses in the town of Ingersoll.

THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1946 Waste Not, Want Not The staff of life is growing weak with the tre­ mendous burdens imposed upon it. Bread, which we have accepted so casually, nibbling at what we liked, rejecting that part which seemed at all hard—is not as plentiful as formerly. Life in the Victorian age had many commendable features and also many that were not. Superficiality crept in amongst many good manners. It is the former that could be eliminated. One of the worst super­ ficialities of that age was that which required people to leave some food on their plates—not to appear too ravenously hungry, as if hunger were not a natural, healthy state, with no shame at­ tached. The code of manners that would waste food was a decidedly shallow one, and not in keeping with human intelligence. Now that people are dying’of hunger, it is noth­ ing short of criminal to waste food—clean plates are fashionable. A former wealthy business man of Ingersoll, ■used to warn his family “never waste food for something will eat it.” Those were not the words of some one who held a restricted view. They were of one who could deal with big projects—a man of vision, whose interests were varied and who was known for his business acumen; yet he knew the value of small things, and realized the guilt laid upon those failing to recognize the pur­ pose of the Creator in placing foot! upon the earth. Whether one recognizes Divine Providence or not, the relentless action of the law of cause and effect must surely make us realize that waste or destruction of food can only bring a fearful re­ tribution. One slice of bread a day wasted in each Canadian home would mean the loss of 1200 ninety-eight pound bags of flour. ____. Freedom Is For Normal LivingResistance to authority is all too prevalent. The right to freedom is apt to be grossly exaggerated. With dictionaries within reach of everyone, it is surprising that its meaning should not be clearly understood. Freedom and license get terribly mixed up in people’s minds, even though their meanings are poles apart. Freedom is claimed as the undisputed right of everyone. But it must be borne in mind that free­ dom which allows one person to make life miser­ able for another, while at the same time offering the victim no opportunity for protection, freedom which violates natural laws—is not human, but is suggestive of the brute realm. Everyone desires freedom to live the normal life—and no normal persons should have to ask what constitutes that Looking Back — In the — Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario 36 YEARS AGOThursday, June 9th, 1910 PERSONALS Mr. and Mrs. Jas.

Car Check-up is a Safety Measure The co-operation of car drivers with the police in the check-up taking place in connection with the safety campaign, reflects favourably on the majority of drivers.. Police report that in many cases drivers have requested the test, and during one period of one and one half hours, when thirty cars were tested locally, twenty-seven were found to be in good condition; three required only minor adjustments, It is usually the case with the enforcement of rules and regulations. Those who try to abide by them do not find them irksome; while those who object, are apt to be those who find some personal whim is affected. They are not prepared to meet the re­ quirements of well thought but and carefully set standards. Laws should not be intended to be despotic— the word law is derived from the Icelandic lag, which indicates “due place or reasonableness, a rule of conduct." It is the voter's duty to see that they confoim to those requirements. Our highways are becoming crowded already, giving some indication of what they will be like durin? the peak months of summer traffic. Any car lacking every device for safety is a menace on the road, and therefore should not be there. Those drivers who display unwillingness to put their cars in order* for safe driving; who are un­ willing to keep" themselves fit for safe driving should not have licenses. The opening game in the town league took place on Tuesday evening and judging by the article of ball that was put up, the lovers of base­ ball in town will see some good games this sea­ son. Messrs. S. A. Gibson and J. Garfield Gibson gave good satisfaction as umpires. A very pretty wedding was solemnized on Wed­ nesday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ransom Harris, King street west, when their sixth daugh­ ter Edna Mae, was united in marriage to Mr. Ir­ vin Butler, youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. William Butler of Dereham Centre. The death occurred at St. Joseph's Hospital, London, on Monday, of Mrs. Fleet, wife of Reeve S. M. Fleet, following a long illness. Deceased was held in the highest esteem and the announcement of her passing has occasioned deep regret. Besides her husband she is survived by three sons and two daughters. Ingersoll has lost one of its most important businessmen by death in the person of Mr. Wm. Watterworth, who died suddenly at his residence, Oxford street last Friday evening about 7.15, the news coming as a shock to our citizens, as it was only Thursday that he was down town. Besides the widow he leaves to mourn his loss three sons and two daughters. Promoters of Turf Club Show Deserve 'JHigh Praise ‘ Congratulations are extended to Mr, Burton Harris, president of the Ingersoll Turf Club and his executives for the very fine show presented at Victoria Park on Saturday. Many months of plan­ ning and careful thought were necessary to pro­ vide such a show, and strong leadership was necessary to its success. This was amply supplied by Mr. Harris and the officers. The'horse has been a good friend to man, play­ ing as important a part in the early development of Canada, as the airplane is doing to-day in open­ ing up remote regions. In this motorized age there is still, a place for * the horse—restricted though it might be. But it is chiefly the finest type that is needed. The old nag is no longer useful. For this reason, shows to encourage the development/Of good breeding have an important place in the country's economy. They derve a purpose beyond that of just providing a good time. ; The distance travelled by some of the entries at Saturday’s show, i ndicates the interest aroused, giving the community a reputation that extends far. With better weather conditions the attendance *would probably have been very much greater. As ft was, it was equal to that of any other event held at Victoria Park in recent years. The Ingersoll Turf Club is off to a good start. Ingersoll’s Cadet Corps this year is the largest since its organization .and much interest is taken in its success. The officers of the Corps are Cap*. C. Cornish and Lieutenants Henderson and Dakin. Non commisioned officers are 1, Orderly Sergeant J. E. Mitchell; 2, Section Commanders, Color Ser­ geant, Boulding, Sergt. Waring, Sergt. G. Harris imd Corp. Barton; 3, Corps. J. Enright, E. Moyer and H. Bowes; Bugler, A. Nicol; Drummer, C. Ross. The death occurred on Wednesday at the fam­ ily residence, Albert street, of one of Ingersoll's esteemed pioneers in the person of Mr. Charles Cragg in his 82nd year, following an illness of long duration. Besides his widow he is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Peter McDonald, Woodstock; four sons, Wiliam E., of Ingersoll; Dr. C. J., of Detroit; H. II., of Crown Point, Ind., and Arthur C., of St, Paul, Minn., also one sister, Mrs. Poole McDonald, Woodstock. 11 YEARS AGO Thursday, June 6th, 1935 Col. and Mrs. John Hay of Los Angeles, are visiting at the home of the former’s niece, Mrs. J.

The score was 4-3. * Ingersoll’s “B” Intermediates made their first home appearance at Victoria!

Embro Caledonia Society’s GenerosityIs Appreciated Appreciation of the fine record of the Ingersoll Pipe Band over a long period of years, was re­ cently given tangible expression in a donation of fifty dollars by the Caledonia Society-6f Embro. The Ingersoll Pipe Band has. served the commun­ ity well. For years it was our only band, and assisted generously on ipany occasions whenever requested to do so. Now under the sponsorship of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club, it is well organized, with several new members. The generous donation made by the Embro Society will help towards the upkeep of equipment, uniforms, Instruments, Mr. Louis Condos who operates a pool room and tobacco store on Thames street, left last Friday for Grece where he plans spending about three months with relatives.

Cook, Charles street, Ingersoll was giventhe degree of t,Th., and presented with the C. H. Waller Memorial Prize for New Testament Greek. He also gave the valedictory address for the students. - THE HUNT FORHAPPINESS— by —Eveline A. LongThere is not much difference inthe feeling aroused by happiness. It is the same for all. But there’s a vast difference between the causes'of the emotion that suffuses us with a feeling of well-being. It is aroused by many things, the satisfaction of the senses, both those of our lower natures and those on the mental and spiritual levels. The satisfaction that arises from either can give one a comfortable and completed sensation, but the higher the animal, the greater the need for both. The gen­ eral run of domestic animal is happy if well fed and housed. The higher intellect of the dog demands, besides, the companionship of the humans he loves to make his satis­ faction complete. Without that, no matter how well cared for he may be, hewuffers and at times dies. The cat, that creature of Sabaritic de­ sires, is generally satisfied to lie snug and warm, irrespective of his host’s affection. A comfortable knee is comfort enough, no matter whose it may be. There are people who are happy with much the same circum­ scribed ideas, but fortunately they are few. Most of us require much more to complete us. ■ Power and the exercise of power is one man’s need. He feels unsatis­ fied until he can pull the strings that make the figures dance. Money and its ever increasing accumulation is another mttn’s meat and seldom does he cry, “Hold; enough.” Security and ease is the goal of the majority. Happiness, they think, comes with the attainment of these, and as Se­ curity is the will-o-the-wisp, pursued but seldom captured in this inse­ cure world, millions remain with an ever present sense of worry to mar their happiness. The artist, musician or painter, craves the power to exe­ cute in his own particular medium the perfection he dimly envisages. And as perfection is never reached by imperfect man, the artist is ever in pursuit of his happiness, realizing it a little here and there, but quickly acknowledging to himself his failure to achieve the ultimate. The scien­ tist pursues his quest eternally, for his goal is far beyond more human knowledge and his happiness is more ' In the search than in his findings. I His ultimate is in the realm of the infinite; his time too short to ex-1 despair must be the lot of millionsof parents, East and West alike,where hunger stalks and cold pene­trates ill-protected little bodies.Nature offers its bounties ofbeauty to delight all mankindand to . a few, moments of supremehappiness, or days and nights ofmagic hours, as a result of being one with nature, of enjoying all it offers in vagaries and beneficiencea. Such a one was W. H. Hudson, the naturalist and fine prose writer, or Walt Whitman, that great and bois­ terous lover of all nature, including man himself. The pursuit of economic security, shorter and shorter hours of labour, mort and more money for less phys­ ical expenditure, a multiplicity of organized pleasures, these are ways by which we seek happiness. But they fail. The millionaire has them all in abundance, but being a millionaire alone fails to satisfy his hunger for happiness. Happiness lies deeper than surface amenities. It is of the soul as .well as of the body and it is more likely to come unsought than if too much pursued; to be near at hand, like Materlinck’s "Blue Bird” than to be flying far afield. SECOND CONVICTION SENDS R. WILLSIE TO JAIL After having been re-instated in his former positon and given a chance to make good after a former conviction, Robert Willsie was again found guilty of theft, when he appeared in police court for the sec­ ond time on Wednesday of last week. Willsie, an employee of the l Oxford Dairy, some weeks ago broke into the garage of Odell and Allen, and stole a truck belonging to the Dairy. After his appearance in court on that charge, it was decided to give him another chance, and Sam­ uel Wadsworth, proprietor of the Oxford Dairy, gave him a job at $20 a week. After working for three weeks, he again yielded to'tempta­ tion, stealing money from the cash pouches of two salesmen at the dairy. He then left for his home in Windsor, being arrested on his way there, with $8 of the stolen money­ left. Magistrate Groom in sentencing him to 18 months’ imprisonment, ex­ pressed the opinion that the accused this time deserved a stiff sentence. | plore any but a tiny piece of the course. RENARD BEWARE!

Ah, no, she is no longer young. It was in 1918 I knew her. It was during the war, the first Great War. I was stationed in the little town of Ares-Gironde in south-western France. They were fine people, the citizens of France in those days and we were very happy. After I came home I ex­ changed a few postcards with some of them but you know how it is with these things—they do do not passout of mind—they are in the back pigeon-holes of mem­ ory. They come to the front again only when something stirs the embers of the past. “A few days ago I received a letter. It was from Andree, the young woman I knew. She won­ dered if I were still alive. She told me the gossip. She was not married.’ She had aArpted a little girl of five whom she called “Pepee.” I replied and asked as delicately as I could, for Andree was a sensitive girl, if there was anything I could do for her.” I read the letter. It was in excel­ lent English, with only here and there a word oddly used—for few ! write in another language, as in their own. “Do you know what you can do for me? Enquire about the means to send you money, through a bank perhaps, nnd then I’ll tell you what we need most. ‘Pepee” this is my little girl’s name, no her real name is Andree, though, if meanwhile you will send a parcel to “Pepee”, she will be very pleased. Could you easily find: 2 onlinary exercise bonks 2 writing pencils, (ordinary) 1 yard of elastic (white) 1 reel of white cotton wA few sewing needles 1 tin of jam or marmalade A few sweets A soap. All these things are so very scarce here that when “Pepee” wants to write, or to sew for her doll, I often have to refuse her. Yon can have no idea what life is here, especially in this part of France.” Then she thought of “Pepee’s” family: “They were so poor, mother, father, four brothers, almost clothesless. My grandparents left many things but during all these years I had so many miseries everything has gone. So if you have clothes that are no use for you, you could send them. Oh, they won’t be difficult to please, anything would do.” Not a word for herself in this, all for others. Despite the fact that in all these years she had “so many miseries”—no one else is blamed. “So far as our material con­ ditions are concerned, we are worse than ever, but we need not complain, we deserved all that happened. I believe that, in poli­ tics, a nation can never avoid the consequences of its faults, and ours were numerous.” Had these things happened in Can­ ada we would have blamed the gov­ ernment, the business man, the banks. Never would we blame our­ selves. So I hold, For France, an abiding hope. When people accept responsibility for their mistakes they have a reserve of power, a strength which will bring them tri­ umph in the end. , Miss Sue Whelan »g, “The Lord’s cause.” after the ceremony c Sunday School room esent from Avon, Lon- , Ingersoll, Dorchester, ONE-QU ROUND m 12 in afte lower athe i une 15th.is time ofet demand leat is prac-s good busi-order extra.

Mrs. T. Hanlon, • president, introduced the speaker of the evening. Dr. C. A. Osborn, who gave a fine talk on the Prevention and Early Cure of Cancer, urging upon his hearers the need for fre­ quent examinations when cancer in its early stages, may be detected, and successfully treated. Mr. J. R. Skillings of Drumbo, a Red Cross representative, presented films from the National Film Board of Canada, entitled “You Are the Switchman.” This timely picture compared the in­ dividual with a railway switchman regulating the switches according to the signs appearing. Any sign of ; trouble in the body should be investi- | gated and dealt with. The pictures showed the results obtained by proper treatment, of cancer-infected areas. They also showed the tragic results of neglect. 1 The film, “A Four-Point Safety Home,” showed, the many simple causes of serious accidents, when improperly adjusted stepladders, slip­ pery floors, scalding water or matches within reach of small children, pro­ jecting handles of cooking utensils on a stove, hammers, could all have grave consequences. Miss J. M. McNaughton on behalf of all present, thanked Dr. Osborn and Mr. Skillings for their contribu­ tion to the worthy cause of cancer prevention. Chev. and Ol|>e».

I have read recently, with sur­prise, that the question of a forty-hour week may shortly come up fordiscussion in Alberta. I am a stock-man, of what might be termed a mixed farmer, and a veteran of two wars. Last fall we came within a few hours of a serious tie-up in the pack­ ing houses, and a settlement was reached by a reduction in working hours. I have little or no knowledge of union shops, closed shops, master agreements, or check-offs, but I have very definite ideas on a forty-hour week. Strangely enough, I am in favor of a forty-hour week or even less, providing of course, that all our citizens will enjoy these shorter hours. With this in mind, I would like to direct a few questions to em­ ployers, labor union members, and even to the ordinary man in the street. Are you in favor of making any provision to give the farmers a forty-hour week? Will any one of you produce or invent a cow that can be persuaded to take a milking holiday from Fri­ day afternoon at five o’clock until Monday morning at eight o'clock? Will any one of you produce or invent u pig that will not squeal, and will be perfectly content to do without being fed all day Saturday or Sunday? What about the hay or grain that is ready to harvest—will somo one arrange to have the rain held back on Saturday or Sunday? What about our boys, who after years of overseas service, have re­ turned to our mixed farming areas to an eighty-hour .week? Are they to be paid for forty hours only, or are they to be paid time and a half for the other forty hours? If so, who is going to pay them, and from what source is the money coming? Will a forty-hour week on the farm mean 2 shifts? Will 2 shifts mean a fifty percent increase in the fanners’ costs? If so, will you city boys agree to pay the farmers prices to cover this increased cost? Will you pay 60c a pound for good beef, 60c a pound for butter, 70c a pound for bacon, 60c for eggs, 15c a loaf for bread, 15c for milk, $2 for a chicken, and guarantee to take all the farmer’s produce at these prices? If a forty-hour week is granted on the grounds that it will increase em­ ployment, will those getting the ben­ efit of these short hours, agree to legislation being passed imposing penalties on anyone taking on addi­ tional work? HYDROHOME ECOHOMtSTHello Homemakers! Many folks tell us “Desserts are my worst prob­ lem.” It is no wonder with fruit scarce, sugar low in supply and little fat and cornstarch. But if women with electric and wood stoves have difficulty thinking up desserts, the two-element-plate cooks are really up against it. They have to eliminate all those tempting oven-baked pud­ dings and rely on top stove desserts exclusively. Yet when you stop to think ser­ iously about it and study cook books, you discover that the situation is not hopeless after all. Puddings, good ones too, can be made on top of the electric plate. To-day we list a number of dessert ideas, hot and cold, off the top ele­ ments. Add these to the ones have already collected and dessert problem will disappear. the. in is stay-Mac-parentsthe doc-ting. Hishe will soon ended the fun- orth on Thurs-S.

For a hot, hearty dessert make double boiler cottage pudding, cooking vegetables or other food in the boiling water underneath. Leftover puddings may also be heated in double boiler at the same time other foods are being cooked. 2. Steamed butter puddings cook more quickly in individual greased custard cups than casseroles. If you have not a steamer, put carrot puddings in condensed soup tins, cover with wax paper and set in a saucepan containing two inches of water and steam. To reheat, cut two servings off and heat in a sieve. Serve with top milk. 3. Stew rhubarb, add a few raisins for variety. Serve with graham crackers, plain or put together with date filling. 4. Make milk puddings and custards in advance and let cool while cooking first course. For example: Maple Rennet, Hon­ ey Junket, Chocolate Meringue Custard, Rhubarb Custard and other flavoured custards, Cottage Cheese Pudding, Bread and Milk Pudding, Barley Pudding, Corn­ meal Pudding, Lemon Rice Pud­ ding. Vanilla Crumb Pudding and Farina Pudding. 5. Quick Fruit Shortcake: Drain juice from leftover canned fruit. Thicken with cornstarch, 1 tsp, in 1 tbsp, cold water for 1-2 cup juice. Add fruit and heat slightly. Pour over slices of sponge cake (bought) or drop cakes. 6. Top-of-stove scones may be made successfully to sene with stewed prunes, figs or rhubarb. 7. Cook rice, serve hot with canned fruit first time, with the remain­ der make a rice custard next day. Make custard in double-boiler, add rice, reheat and pour into serving dishes. 8. Bavarian sponges require a small amount of heat. The gelatine may be dissolved in a dipper over the tea kettle and the dessert finished at the kitchen table according to recipe. 9. Pancakes require a short cook­ ing time. Serve with synthetic fruit syrup or raisin sauce when sugar quota is low. 10.

Fruit dumplings can be made on top of stove this way: Cook fruit in a little syrup. Add 1 beaten egg, 1 tsp. sugar and enough milk to moisten to 1 cup prepared bis­ cuit mix.

If the costs of pro- cessing are increased by the adoption of a forty-hour week, who is going to stand the increased cost? Who is there to stand it except the pro­ ducer? Why are we farmeds so dumb that we sit still and see this developing right under our noses? Why are our so-called farm papers not put­ ting this situation more clearly be­ fore the farmers? Are the farmers going to speak up, or are they again going to leave it to the usual dog-fight be­ tween the processors and the profes­ sional labor leaders? How many millions will it cost the producers if the processors stop arbritrating and grant labor’s demands in full this year? Will labor’s requests include not only a fortyhour week, but a substantial crease in pay, as it did in 1945? Will somebody tell me if the flour mills, the dairies, and the packing houses are making too much profit, and is the government taking sub­ stantial taxes thereon? Is agricul­ ture, directly and indirectly, paying a goodly portion of the Canadian tax bill?

As one who has seen something of the suffering in Europe I am worried as I realize that we will find our­ selves in the soup, unless farmers, industrialists, businessmen, employ­ ers, labor leaders, in fact all of us cut a lot of this nonsense, and wake up to the fact that work, and work only on the part of all, is the basic solution for prosperity and happi­ ness. —(Reprinted from a letter in the Edmonton Journal, written by H.

Her eyes wereenormous and she had lost her ap-petite completely. “Oh, Celia,you're not going away? I thoughtyou were going to live here! You won't get to see Yippee’s kittens,and Tiger Lil's babies are just be­ginning to know you and—oh,Celia!”Celia put an arm about the child,and Honey said quickly, “Gosh, Celia, I’m going to miss you! Doyou have to go?”Before Celia could answer AuntJudith said pleasantly, “But ofcourse she must go on with hercareer! After all, if she's not going to be married, she must have someinterest in life, and since she hasa real talent for the stage—” Honey asked swiftly, a tone ofuneasiness thick in her voice, “Areyou going too, Aunt Judith?*’Aunt Judith looked at her grave­ly. “Not if you want me to stay,Honey,” she said gently. "Oh, I do. Aunt Judith! I do—ever so much! Gosh! You scaredme! But maybe Celia won't want to be alone in New York—”"I’ve already made arrange­ments for Celia to stay at a verygoo,’ hotel there—the Barbizon,"answered Aunt Judith efficiently.“It’s like a studio club, really—forgirls who are studying for careers.I know Celia's going to love it. Andof course, she has scads of friendsthere who will welcome her back.”Rusty said tight-lipped, “Do youwant to go back. Celia?”She looked up at him."Because,” stated Rusty flatly,“it sounds a little as, though youwere being railroaded, and you don’t have to be pushed around ifyou don't want to be!”Aunt Judith decided to resentthat."And just who is pushing heraround. Mr. Randolph?” she de­manded haughtily. Rusty met her eyes straightly.“The Mallorys. for a while—andthen when she gave him the brush-off, you started! And I'm sayingthat just because she has decidedshe doesn't want to marry Mal­lory—and a darned good thing, too.for he'd have made her the mostmiserable soul that ever lived—thatdoesn't mean she has to race off to New York or anywhere els§!”Aunt Judith decided to go on oe- mg resentful, tnough there was aghost o( a twinkle carefully hiddenin her eyes."My dear young man," she saidin her frostiest tone, "no one hasthe slightest intention of forcing Celia to do anything that shedoesn't want to do. I merelythought that, being a spinster my­self and knowing a tyt, about whatit means to reach my age with nospecial interest in life. I thought itwould be nice if Celia had acareer, to compensate her for notbeing married.""You sound as though Celia wereforty-seven and long in the toothand with no hope of ever marry­ ing. For Pete's sake, she’s the lov-liest thing that ever lived, and anyman with an ounce of brains wouldgo completely off his nut at the veryhope of marrying her!” explodedRusty furiously.Bugs and Doc stared at him fora moment, and then at each other.After which they went on with theirdinner.Aunt Jiffiith said politely, asthough she and Rusty were alone in the room, “And what chance, ’may I ask, has she to meet mar­riageable young men here?”Rusty said grimly, "She metMallory here!”"And what did it get her?" AuntJudith pounced on that. "No,Rusty, I think it’s much the bestfor her to go back to New York andresume her studies, and have anopportunity to meet marriageableyoung men.”Celia said mildly, leaning an el­bow on the table, her chin in herp.-’m. “Would anybody care tohear a word from me on the sub­ject f what I do with my life?” The gentleness, the very mild­ness of her words silenced the oth­ers, and they looked nt her withinterest. Rusty was flushed andangry, his eyes blazing; Aunt Ju­dith was composed, neat, perfect­ly herself; Honey was puzzled,looking from one to the other; Docand Bugs were giving their atten­tion to the platter of fried chickenbefore them; Susan was clingingto Celia's arm, her face white andfrightened, her eyes enormous.Aunt Judith said sweetly, sur­prised, “Why, my dear, I thoughtyou were simply mad to be an ac­tress!”Celia surveyed her coolly, " 'Sim­ply mad' is exactly the rightword.” she admitted wryly. "I'vea little talent. I'm fairly nice look­ing, I can walk across the stage without falling flat on my face, andI don't suffer from stage frightmore than any other stagestruckkid. But there are millions justlike me, and I see no reason whyI should waste money on dramatic lessons, and shoe leather on mak­ing the rounds of agencies, lookingfor work and taking it from people Rustly looked down at her for a long moment and then his arms wentabout her and drew her close. The Ingersoll Kiwanis Calf Club met on Tuesday evening, May 28th, at the farm of Mr. Alfred Dickout, R. R. No. 1,. Salford. President David Dewan presided, and there were nineteen members in attend­ ance. Secretary Monte Town read the minutes ?f the previous meeting. It was decided that the next meeting would be held on Thursday evening, the 27th of June, 1946, at the farm of Jim Reddick, Beachville. Mr. Geo. Bell, Assistant Agricul­ tural Representative, then took over the meeting and outlined and demon­ strated the essential points to look for when judging a mature Holstein cow. A class of four mature Hol­ stein cows was then judged by the members.

"Beginning tomorrow morn­ing, I'd like to go with Honey andlearn to build ships!"There was a pause and thenRusty cried, “Hooray for you,sweet!’’ and realized too late thelittle endearment. He was scarletwith confusion beneath the amused,quizzical glance Aunt Judith shotat him.Honey glowed with delight. Su­san whooped with joy. It was allvery gay and happy, and RubyPearle, who hadn't laughed since the day they had brought home heradored mistress and master, thrusther head into the room and seemedto take comfort in the delight ap­parent there.When dinner was over. Rusty overtook Celia in the hall and saideagerly, “There's a moon, a realharvest moon. Get your coat andlet's walk down to the orchard."Celia’s heart sat up and yippedwith delight, but as she we;.t to gether coat, she told it to shush andbehave itself.Outside in the warm, golden moonlight, as they walked downthrough the orchard and climbedthe old stile that crossed the “rat­tlesnake” fence, Rusty moved be­side her in silence. But once theywere settled on the stile he saidawkwardly, "Maybe I should apol­ogize for lashing cut at ^our auntlike that. She's a swell person andI’m crazy about her, but I couldn'tquite stand the way she was plan­ ning for you.”He looked at her anxiously, andadded before she could speak,“Look here, you're not sheddingany tears about Mallory, are you?”Celia laughed outright and looked .up at him swiftly. “Who’s Mal­lory?” she asked lightly, and addedmore seriously, "The only thingthat bothers me about him is thatI was fool enough to think I want­ed to marry him.”“Oh, well, you were getting overa busted love affair,” said Rusty casually, and as she gave a littlestart, he grinned and said casu­ally, “I suspected it, of course.Mallory caught you on the rebound.He's good-looking and attractive,with a line as smooth as butterand honey melted in the sun. Also, he’s got the glamour of a great for-,tunc behind him. 'Most any girl*could have been fooled.”Ce’ia said instantly. “Then youdon’t despise me for thinking Iwanted to marry him?” “Despise you?" Rusty repeated,frowT.ing. “For Pete’s sake. Celia,do you mean you still don’t knowthat I'm crazy about you? ThatI love you?”Celia caught her breath and wasvery still there in the yellow moon­ light, her face lifted to his. hereyes searching, probing, alprostfearful,“Oh. Rusty—you don’t!” shewhispered, afraid to believe it lestthe discovery that it was not so bemore than she could endure.“Celia. I do!" he told her. andthen he made a little awkward ges­ture and said humbly, "I can’tblame ydu for doubting me, sweetI sounded off like a fool that nighthere when I told you about mydad. That was enough to keep anyJrl from ever giving a man an­other thought.""Was that why you said it—so Iwouldn't fall in love with you?”Celia asked quickly. He looked at her sharply. “Itwas in the hope that I could stopfalling in love with you. You werefor Mallory, I thought,’ he con­fessed. “I stopped and thought ofal] the things Mallory could do foryou—money and jewels and socialposition and all that. And here Iwas. with my mustering-out pay. afew dollars compensation—and Ican’t even offer you a home, orguarantee that you'll be fed." "And you let things like that mat­ter to you. Rusty?" she asked. "Well, take a look at the record,sweet," Rusty insisted. "There wasMallory, with all his money and the things it could do for you, and therewas me, with nothing.""Rusty, let's stop raking up thepast,” she told him unsteadily."I’ve been a fool—but now I knowthe truth. I don't expect you tobelieve me right away, but if you'llgive me time. I’ll prove to you that—I love you! That this time it’sreal, and this time it's for keeps!I couldn't be wrong three times ina row!”Rusty looked down at her for a long moment, and then his armswent about her and drew her close,and held her so, and his mouthsought and found her own. . . ,There was a blessed interval ofecstasy and a silence that had noneed for words while their heartsbeat in exquisite rhythm. And thenshe drew herself a little away fromhim and said uncertainly, “There’ssomething you must know, Rusty.” Rusty looked at her uneasily."If it’s that you've changed yourmin'’ about loving me—” he be­gan,"Oh, ddrling, no!” she answeredswiftly, and melted into his arms again, for a long and lovely kiss.But then she drew away again,, andsaid uncomfortably, "I can't start out, Musty, with secrets uctweerus."Rusty waited, tense and still andafraid. Celia said swiftly, her voiceshaken. “Darling — you wereframed!"Rusty stared at her in bewilder­ment."Framed? 1 don’t get it,” he pro­tested."You were framed by Aunt Ju­dith.” she told him. “By Aunt Ju­dith and me. She did it deliberate­ly- I—well I guess I just saw whatshe was doing and sort of—helpedher a little—Or maybe a lot!” Rusty stared at her. his browsdrawn together in a puzzled frown.“I’m pretty dumb, sweet. I guessyou’d better pul it in words of onesyllable,” he suggested finally.“Tonight when Aunt Judith start­ed talking about sending me backto New York to go on with mycareer"—she grimaced a little atthe word—"that was all a frame-up t sort of smoke you out! She—well, she’s known ever since shecame that I was in love with you,only I hadn't had sense enough torealize it until the night of thestorm. No, darling—wait, let mefinish! She thought you liked me alot, but I told her how you feltabout being married and all that.She said that all men felt like thatuntil they met the right girl. Andthat sometimes they had to have abit of—of pushing in the right di­rection, to be able to get their eyes open. So she gave you a little pushby making you think I was goingaway.” Rusty grinned. "Bless Aunt Ju­dith!” he said happily.Celia asked eagerly, "You’re—not angry?" "Angry? I’m tickled silly!” hetold her frankly. "I guess I need­ed a bit of a push—maybe a goodswift kick for being afraid to offeryou what little I have, which isn'tanything at all but my heart andall that's in it for the rest of mylife—if you’ll have it!" For a long, long moment she justlooked straight into his eyes whilethe tears welled into hers, andspilled over her flushed, enchantedface. Then Rusty's arms gatheredher close and he said huskily. "Darling, don't cry. Please don'tcry!" "I'm crying, Rusty, because 1love you so much and because weare going to be so happy here. Youdon’t mind staying here and being the head of a houseful of women?”she asked with sudden anxiety."Not if you’re one of the wom­en,” said Rusty, and smiled at herwarmly, and kissed her with suchardor that there could never be any doubt in her mind as to thestrength and the depth and thewonder of his love.

Strikes are springing up here and there, a har­ vest of Dragon’s Teeth, an after­ math of war. One might almost won­ der, at the moment, who governs in the United States—the people or John L. Lewis. The farmers of Canada are pro­ testing against conditions in agricul­ ture, few returned men are going back to the farms. They are less hopeful of the future there, prefer life in the cities. Parliament squab­ bles about the way of doing things, rather than about getting things done. A Dominion-Provincial Conference has just broken up because of inabil­ ity to agree about anything except the need for action. The United Nations makes progress slowly. Rus­ sia, unfamiliar with our ways, wants her own way "at every turn, sulks when displeased. We wonder how long it will be before the Treaty of Peace is signed, petulantly ask if the drawing up of the Peace Treaty is going to take as much time as the winning of the war. Is that enough? One might go on son. A. P. McKessock, Assessor of East Nissouri and S. J.

ROOSEVELT The Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada has just completed its annual meeting In Ottawa under the Chairmanship of Dr. J. Clarence Webster of Shediac, New Brunswick. The meeting * lasted for three days, May 15th, 16th and 17th, and mem­ bers of the Board were welcomed by the Minister of Mines and Resources, the Honourable J. A. Glen. The Board is an honourary body of well- recognized historians who assist and advise the National Parks Bureau in the work of restoring preserving and administering national historic parks and sites in Canada. During the war the work of ac­ quiring and commemorating these national historic places was greatly curtailed, but plans are now under way for the carrying out of many of the Board’s recommendations for post-war development. These include a monument to be erected at Cam­ pobello Island, New Brunswick, to the memory of the late President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, a monu­ ment to Lucy Maud Montgomery, author of “Ann of Green Gables”, and to Father Jacques Marquette, the discoverer of the Mississippi River. Among tablets to be erected will be one in the Parliament Build­ ings at Victoria, British Columbia, to Sir James Douglas, the “father" of British Columbia, and at New Westminster, also in British Colum­ bia, to Judge Howey, a distinguished historian and latterly chairman of> the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada. Other members attending the. Board Meeting in Ottawa were Pro-' fessor Walter N. Sage of Vancouver, t THE OTHER SIDE John L, Lewis is not the Prcsi-- dent of the United States. He repre­ sents a small minority of the people. Temporarily the voters may be in­ different. Democracy is a strange creed. The compass, under certain conditions, may vary but as a rule it swings to the North. In the midst of the worst crisis of American history, Abraham Lincoln was able to console himself and the nation by these simple words: “This too will pass.” Farm conditions will adjust We hear now of people leaving the farms, this, in time, will alter the British Columbia, Professor M.

YOU ALWAYS GET 8 Bell Street - Phone 147 Prompt Delivery Service The Only Remedy for Hunger is FOOD! h* The most efficient way in which we can send in­ creased bulk shipments of WHEAT, MEAT, CHEESE and EGGS to needy coun­ tries is through the Cana­ dian government food Boards. These increased bulk shipments can only be made providing we reduce our own consump­ tion. Here are five im­ portant ways by which we can make quantities of able for export: balance of population. If it proves \ Ja serious movement, farm land will fall in price. Conditions in the cities may become less pleasant as popu­ lation increases. The price of farm products will rise in relation to the other products, the farm will become a more pleasant place to live. There is something to be gained from row­ ing against the current rather than with it, at least it strengthens the muscles of the arms. FAILURE AND SUCCESS The Dominion-Provincial Confer­ ence failed but, in the end, those who differed will return to settle their differences or find another way of doing things. We have amazing ability for developing new equip­ ment. The binder seemed at one time to be the ultimate in farm machines. It’s out of date now, wash­ ed up, soon it will be a museum curiosity. We improve mechanisms, our minds improve more slowly. In time the nations will settle down. Even the greatest of the fakirs must get tired walking, in bare feet, over hot needles or making a boy disappear from the end of a high pole. There is in the world to­ day a more genuine desire for peace than ever before. Tortured countries seek peace, rather than war. Russia has a world of her own to exploit. Insolatlonism is not now as strong in the United States as it once was. The graves of this war are' fresh in our memefry, Let us keep them green so that we may never forget Let us remember that when Pandora’s box was opened and Montgomery. Wm. Reeves claiming that he is assessed for 10 acres more than he should be. G. A. Lees, Treasurer Canadian Executive Board of the Free Metho­ dist Church, appealing against the assessment on 19 acres, north part lot 23, concession 1, as this property is to be used os a religious camp grounds. The claim of the CjN.R. was con­ sidered as being one of re-allocation rather than adjustment as there would be no reduction in total assessment nor in total acreage as per the C.N.R. claim. Mrs. E. Pullin's request was granted but the claim of Wm. Reeves was rejected, as no proof of claim was supplied.

EA ST THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1946 Page 7 WEEK BY WEEK— By D**n Wil.o* — CRISIS AND CONFUSION Behind the numerous stories which are circulating about the current world food crisis which is not expect­ ed to be limited to 1946, according to well-informed quarters in Ottawa, extending at least until after summer harvest of 1947, there is a story here which hints that the Canadian Government would be .willing to con­ sider on its merits any other steps which may be taken to give further assistance, though foresight in the form of a conservation policy has allowed Canada to export more wheat alone to starving nations during 1945-46 than was actually harvested in 1945, with the Canadian system enabling wheat, cheese and bacon to be shipped to the extent of 70 per cent Moreover, it is also strongly hinted in some quarters that it is not being done only in a spirit of charity since there is already a “suggestion” for example, that Britain may have a “permanent interest” in purchasing meat from Canada, though, of course, at this time, there can be no commitment for Britain to make such exclusive purchases here. Likewise, there is a story that charity in the distribution of food may be a thing of the past within the year possibly and world shipments of food may be on a distinct commercial basis.

This is to say that in any case where a buyer and a seller had a firm con­ tract as of April 13 for future deliv­ ery of farm machinery at prices lower than the new maximum price the buyer has the ordinary protect­ ion of the law against any variation in the contract price, though if both buyer and seller agree the price might be adjusted within the limits of the revised maximum price.

Some of the points brought out show that changing the basis of representation in Parliament, which now is founded on 65 into the population of Quebec formula, may be accomplished by a petition to the British Parliament for amending the British North Am­ erica Act of 1867; since this is in rea­ lity an affair concerning the central Parliament such a petition does not need the consent of the various pro­ vincial legislatures; the resolution does not need the unanimous approv­ al of Parliament; the previous amendment to put off redistribution during the war received passage throtigh the British Parliament in approximately ten days. Under the proposed plan, the rep­ resentation in the next Parliament would be as following, present rep­ resentation being given in brackets; Prince Edward Island, 4 (4); New Brunswick, 10 (10); Quebec, 73, (65); Ontario, 83, (82); Manitoba, 16 (17); Saskatchewan, 20 (21); Alberta, 17 (17); British Columbia, 18 (16); Yukon, 1 (1); total, 255 (245).

Mr. King has served from Dec. 29, 1921 to June 28, 1926; from Sept. 25, 1926 to Aug. 7, 1930, and from Oct. 23, 1935 to the present. 7-MAN APPEAL BOARD A report tabled in the Senate in Ottawa has recommended the crea- tion of a seven-man appeal board to hear and to decide any appeal made by a Canadian taxpayer from an assessment under the Income War Tax Act and the Excess Profits Tax Act. This report was the first of three to be made by a special committee of the Senate, this estab­ lished in the fall of 1945, in order to look into the provisions and oper­ ations of the Income War Tax Act and the Excess Profits Tax Act.

Len and his sweet music makers are in Ingersoll for only one night, Saturday, June 8th, at the Recreational Centre, a musical stand en route to Jasper Park Lodge where they are slated to handle the band-stand chores during the holiday months. The Hopkins’ unit got the choice Jasper Park assignment over a number of strong contenders in the musical world, thus piling up yet an­ other success for the hand .which has taken Canada’s Capital City by storm. You’ll see and hear them all, from svelte Maestro Hopkins, himself, to pretty Edith Dunn, the little girl with the come-hither voice who first attracted attention some years ago on a “Stars of To-morrow” broad­ cast from an Ottawa radio station. Ten men and a girl. The brass section capable of blowing both hot and sweet, the smooth melody of the sax section, the talented rhythme boys, and the “Mellodeens”, the band’s melodic trio. For the bobby-soxers in the audi­ ence Len offers Quebec’s Vai Le­ beau, who “sold” songs in night eftibs and on the air going overseas with Canada's army several years ago. Vai’s out of uniform now and still selling on the melody market, this time as a member of Canada’s top group of music manufacturers. The smooth trumpet of "Spider” Weekes is calculated to set feet a-tappin’, heads a-waggin', and hearts a-throbbin” and he is ably supported by trumpeters Les Lucas and Don Douglas, the former a vet­ eran of World War II with prisoner- of-war time behind him, the latter a youngster of 18 who promises to be one of the nation’s foremost horn- tooters. For those who pine for the low hioan of the sax there are three young men ready to dish up a treat in the best Hopkins manner. Doug. Gall, Norm Bigras and Everett Blackstock can “moan” with the best of them. On the drums its Keith Bedford, an Ottawa boy recently discharged from overseas service; on the bass, Ray ’ONeill, who can be called upon to “sub” for crooner Lebeau on a moment’s notice; at the piano, the man who does much of the arrang­ ing and orchestration, Wilf Steabner, the only Westerner in the group.

Len wont so far as to enroll at the Chi­ cago YMCA College back in the early ’30s, but the urge to lead a band got the better of him and since 1938 when he moved into Ottawa’s Chateau Laurier, his “PT” work has been confined to the occasional hand-ball game or swim at the “Y.” Leader Len still looks the part though, and could probably still do five miles around the track even after a full night on the band stand. “When you proposed did you get down on your knees?” “No. But since I’ve been married she’s majle me get down on ’em right i along.” Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pi .ML GOOD APPETITE...

During the post 60 years as Canadian agri­ culture increased in extent and com­ plexity, there has been a correspon­ ding expansion and intensification of the work. Scientific principles and techniques, not known in 1886, now receive routine application in the so­ lution of farm problems, and for cu­ mulative* evidence of Canada's world leadership in agriculture and other spheres the-contribution of Canadian farmers during the recent war is an encouraging epic in itself.

The president closed the meeting withthe benediction.—(M.C.) Practically unknown to the general public, the 2nd of June is neverthe­ less one of the most important dates in the history of Canada. That date marks the 60th anni­ versary of the founding of the Dom­ inion Experimental Farms. When on June 2, 1886, the Governor General of Canada gave assent to an ‘Act Respecting Experimental Farm Sta­ tions", no apparent public interest was aroused. Agriculture in Eastern Canada was in a somewhat primitive state and in Western Canada all that vast area now known as the Prairie Provinces— Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta—was to all intents and purposes virgin land where the buf­ falo grazed on the native grasses. In the East, the value of good seed and suitable varieties was but little understood; systematic rota­ tions were very little followed; good cultural methods were neither stud­ ied nor practised; the use of fertil­ izers was not understood or system­ atically followed; the advantage of surface tillage to preserve moisture on the one hand, and of under­ drainage on the other, had not been called to the attention of the far­ mer; the uses of leguminous plants to increase fertility were unknown; the necessity of careful breeding, feeding, housing and management of live stock was little recognized—in short, agricultural education and practice were in their infancy. Yet, on June 2, 1886, while little general public concern jwas evinced over the condition of agriculture, at the same time agriculture was even then recognized as Canada’s basic industry. It is so today. No invest­ ment made by the people of Canada has returned more abundant divi­ dends than that which they received from the Dominion Experimental Farms and the other services of the Dominion Department of Agricul­ ture. While the development of early wheat and other grains may be re­ garded as the most spectacular ac­ complishments of the Farms, it does not by any means embrace all that has been done for the benefit of Canadian agriculture and Canada. It may be true that no other natural product has exercised such vitalizing influence upon the economic life of the Dominion. It has been the most powerful factor in attracting popu­ lation and capital to the Dominion in bringing extensive virgin areas of land under cultivation, in widening^ the market for domestic manufacture-1 ing, mining, and other industries, | and in building up export trade. I The discovery of Marquis wheat I by the late Sir .Charles Saunders, i Dominion Cerealist,. at Ottawa in 1904 has been regarded as the most revolutionary event in North Amer­ ican agriculture.
