W. Riley’To the Members of Counciland Citizens of Ingersoll:It is fitting in presenting my in­augural address that my first expres­sion should be grateful appreciationto the electors of Ingersoll who sodecisively voted that I continue inoffice for a third term.This fine tribute, I can assure you,is highly valued, and is one I believethat likewise must be regarded ashighly significant in relation to thework of the council during the yearjust closed. I also desire to heartily congratu­ late members of the 1946 council who have returned to office and at the same time extend a most cordial welcome to the new members who are just enterting upon their muni­ cipal experience. I wish to assure them that it will be a pleasure foi me as I believe it also will be for the other members to accord them all possible assistance. The council of the past year had much of more than usual importance to engage their attention. New pro­ jects of vital interest to th<$ town of Ingersoll were launched and from time to time were fully and carefully considered ' in their varied aspects. Discussion, as was to be expected was keen but I realize that in the main these matters were considered with a progressive spirit and from the viewpoint of the expenditures in­ volved and what they would mean to the future development of the town. Of these the sewerage project was undoubtedly the most outstanding and I feel that the splendid vote the by-law was accorded was in keeping with the policy of this council which was clearly defined from the time the matter was first taken up in a defin­ ite way and of the need for such an undertaking. The hospital by-law also was an­ other matter of vital interest and in connection with which’ unhesitating support was given by council. I am sure that in this as well as the sew­ erage by-law the council has reason to feel proud of their action and the outlook for future development of the town. Another forward step taken by council was in regard to housing ac­ commodation for veterans which has $ Inaugural Addressresulted in the erection of some 35houses in Kensington Park. Thiswork has been continued satisfactor­ily with the result that much willhave been done to relieve the housingsituation for veterans.1 would remind council that whilethe results for 1946 appear to behighly gratifying that what has beendone will have tendency to intensifyresponsibility for the coming years.The sewerage undertaking muststill be regarded as requiring closeattention of council and no effortshould be spared to see, once it hat been commenced, that all phases of the work are carried out in the most satisfactory manner. Despite the progress of the past year, this council’ must continue to look to the future; we must be ever vigilant of the town’s welfare and keep in touch with all movements in this direction. I am conscious of the fact that the further development of the Princes* Elizabeth school property should re­ ceive consideration. When this work has been completed the grounds will not only be available for athletic sports during the summer and winter for those interested in all section* of the town, but in addition to being a playgrounds, it will be a beauty spot for those on the north side. Street work will likely be anothei matter to engage the attention oi council. This must be considered important as I feel the municipality has a direct responsibility in this connection and that investments that have already been made in perman­ ent work should be fully protected by repairs when needed. In all cases however, the element of economy should be considered when consistent with good business principal. May 1 express the hope that in all our deliberations we may be actuated oy a spirit of friendliness and co­ operation, having regard at all times for the welfare of the town and re­ sponsibility to the trust and confi­ dence resposed in us by the electors. In conclusion I wish to express to members of council and all citizen* my sincere New Year’s greetings coupled with the hope that at the end of 1947 success may be apparent in many respects. CHAS. W.

Latest EquipmentFeatures New BakeryKeeping up with the developmentof the town, Zurbrigg’s Bakery hasopened a fine new building on Ox­ford street, at the rear of theirThames street store and bakery.In this new building, equippedwith all the latest devices, such asoil-heated ovens, electric mixers andchoppers, ample storage and work­ing space, good light and ventila­tion, all the cakes, cookies, biscuits,pies and tarts will be made, while the bakery attached to the store will turn out bread and buns. The new building marks another step in the steady progress of the business established in 1908 by the late Mr. S. G. Zurbrigg. Saying that he liked bread and butter, and he liked them good, Mr. Zurbrigg en­ deavoured to give his customers the best too. His products soon establish­ ed for themselves a place on the tables of an ever-extending area, until now Zurbrigg’s delivery trucks serve eight routes within a radius of fifteen miles about Ingersoll. Baking is a strong trait in the Zur­ brigg family. Before coming to Ing­ ersoll Mf. Zurbrigg was in the same business in Markham, with his two brothers, Alvin and Harry. They now operate bakeries in Listowel and Stratford respectively. For some years >Mr, Zurbrigg had a section of McLeod and MacBain’s grocery store, where his goods were sold, in addition to the regular deliv­ ery routes. As quarters became cramped, he took over Law’s drug store at the rear of which the bakery was situated. That is still used for retail purposes. Three years ago an auxiliary bak­ ery was opened on King street east, where sweet goods were made. The new building with its greatly im­ proved facilities, will supplant that. Mr. S. G. Zurbrigg took his son Mr. Bernie Zurbrigg, into partner­ ship in 1939, the firm becoming S. G. Zurbrigg and Son. Since the death of the founder in May, 1944, it has been known as Zurbrigg’s Bakery, Limited, "with Mr. Bernie Zurbrigg as president and manager. He is also president of the Western Ontario section of the Ontario Bakers’ Asso­ ciation.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 9th, 1947 creased intercourse between people of variousnations. It sweeps away the last vestige of Col­onialism.People coming to our country to reside andwishing to become citizens, will follow the sameform of procedure as formerly. Perhaps the mostnoticeable feature of the Act is its relation to Can­adians living abroad, and their children born out­side Canada. From now on the Immigration Actwill have to recognize those children as Canadians*and no longer will children of Canadian-born mis­sionaries returning to this country, be put off thetrain at the point of entry because of being for­eign-born.One fact remains unchanged. A Canadian citi­zen is still heir of a priceless heritage, bought with the sweat and blood; the brains and brawn of a noble army of forerunners—people whose faith is sublime - - their courage indomitable, with a deep love of country. Of greatest importance to Canada’s future, is not so much the Canadian Citizenship Act, fine as it is, but the way Canadian citizens act. MR. FINES AND THENEW FINANCE— by —R. J. Deachman Ontario Red Cross History Ably Recorded Figures are sometimes confusing because of being awesome—they can be like the trees that obstruct a view of the woods. So it is in perusing an account of the work of the Ontario Division of the Canadian Red Cross Society, as related in the book, “History of Ontario Red Cross 1914-1946”: Statistics on the quantities of comforts supplied during the war years; of the numbers of people assisted; of the corps of workers; of the centers where help and supplies were sent; all leave one almost bewildered, because of the magnitude and , scope of the work. Looking Back — In the — Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario I have before me a report on theoperations of the Saskatchewan Gov­ernment It’s a somewhat detacheddocument, it doesn’t strew theground with either praise or blame.It makes rather interesting reading.I like especially its tribute to theHon. Mr. C. M. Fines, ProvincialTreasurer.It seems that Mr. Fines is a bit of a genius and has done rather well in statesmanship. “He is", so says the story, “a man with a head for figures who from boyhood has been a wiz­ ard at mathematics. Sometimes just for fun, he used to pit himself against the adding machines in the Department of Education to see which was the faster. Often as not Mr. Fines won.” He is evidently a fast man. ""'---------------------------------------ROYAL COMMISSIONON MILKBy direction of the Commissioner. Tht Honourable Mr. JusticeDalton Wells, hearings for the Corfral Western Ontario area will beheld in the Couyty Council Chamber, the County Buildings, RidoutStreet, London/for four dayf^r longer if necessary, commencing at10:30 a.m., Monday, 13th January, 1947.

Keith, Secretary, Room 252, Osgoode Hall, Toronto. 30 YEARS AGO Thursday, January 4th, 1917 But the tale unfolded in this book by Major E. H. A. Watson, Field-Secretary since 1939, is one of a thrilling drama, enacted by citizens of this Province, both at home and in distant parts of the world. The Ontario Division came into being, as a unit, in 1919, after the Canadian Society had proved its worth during the war of 1914-18, it being felt that separate Provincial Societies might function more satisfactorily during the post-war years in help­ ing with both ex-servicemen’s problems and those of civilians, especially in the newly-settled sections of the country. Such a view was amply justified •when the Ontario Division rendered such signal service to victims of the Haileybury-Englehart fire of 1922; the Port Arthur and Fort William fires of ’30; The Thames Valley flood of '37; the Kent County flood and the polio epidemic of ’38; the Rainy River District fire of ’39. Outpost hospitals and nursing services saved many lives, and gave comfort to thousands of afflicted people. Those services with those of public health, high­ way first aid posts, visiting homemakers, home nur­ sing, nutritional guidance and the organizing of Junior Red Cross Societies, indicate a recognition of the broad field of opportunity, and that it is the responsibility of all sections of each community. With such a comprehensive set-up the Red Cross was ready to meet the needs of war again in 1939, constantly extending the scope of activities to in­ clude every type of war relief. The tale unfolded in the book, is one about the faithful men and women enlisted under the Red Cross banner— some on the battlefields, some in distributing de­ pots, in warehouses, canteens, hospitals, some equally as faithful, engaged in less spectacular, though highly important work, in their homes, on the back concessions; all contributing to Canada’s war effort. Each individual will see his war work recorded. This great organization is happily once again geared to peace-time activity, and the future record is likely to make as interesting reading as the present volume which is heartily recommended to all.

Wonderful Cars Should Have Wonderful Drivers ••Whut will cars be like to-morrow'.'” asks The Financial Post, replying with the predictions of Mr. Harold T. Youngren, vice-president and dir­ ector of engineering of the Ford Motor Company. To-morrow’s car will be more comfortable than ever. As the Financial Post remarks: “the automo­ bile is more and more becoming a room on wheels.” Wonderful things are promised both in mechan­ ism and fittings. Some cars will have rear engines; others will have the engines in front. Seats will be wider; upholstery and springs will be most luxurious. All that engineering and inventive genius can do, will be done to make automobiles super. One thing those experts cannot work on is the drivers of those wonderful cars, and one wonders what they will be like. Will they try to keep pace with all that science is offering, or will they con­ tinue their dizzy careers of carelessness, speeding on wet roads, cutting in, driving against lights and careening around corners on one wheel? No machine can do jts best unless it is intelli­ gently operated—one might almost add, affection­ ately operated, for unlesS the operator holds it iq high regard, he will never bring it to full success. Technicians are doing their best on the cars. It is up to every driver to do his best with himsetf, and to aim to be a first-class,driver. 11 YEARS AGO Thursday, January 9th 1936 PERSONALS Mrs. E. H. Fogarty of Fitchburg, Mass., is visit­ ing at the home of Mr. ffnd Mrs. T. N. Dunn. Miss Doreen Fleury of Brampton, spent a few days last week at the home of Mrs Hubert Hutt, Earl street. Rev.

The refreshments were in charge of Mrs. J. Daly and those receiving were Miss Doreen Fluery of Bramp­ ton and Mr. W. R. Marshall and Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Stone of Ingersoll.' The New Citizenship Act The Canadian Citizenship Act has been inaug­ urated. For the average person life will go on very much as usual. The change is primarily tech­ nical, and will be noticed chiefly in documents. In times past, it was only at census-taking, or when travelling with a passport, that most Can­ adians by birth realized they were not officially designated as Canadian citizens. For those pur­ poses they were called British subjects. Under the new Act. we shall continue to be British subjects— not subservient to any one part of the Empire, but a partner in the glorious whole: The Act is a sort of “tidying up” on many points developed over a period of time; especially as pro­ gress in transportation facilities has led to in- The uptown C.P.R. office was closed last week and business in the future will be carried on at the station. Ralph Bower who has been employed as telegraph operator, will have charge of the tele­ graph service at the depot and the express and ticket business will be taken over by station agent, F. E. Johnston. Mr. George Sutherland who has been in charge of the uptown office for a period of over 40 years, has been superannuated by the company. About 25 members of Princess Louise pircle, Companions of the Forest, journeyed to Woodstock on Thursday evening and held a joint installation of officers with D.D. Companion Fleischer presid­ ing. The following officers were installed: Chief, Comp. Todd; Sub Chief, Comp. Anthony; Financial Secretary, Comp. Cable; Treasurer, Comp. Owen; Recording Secretary, Comp. Elford; R. Guide, Comp. Payne; L. Guide, Comp. Rine; Guards, Comps. Powell and Wilson; Chaplain, Comp. Ab­ bott Treasurer Fines on Shoes The C.C.F. Government started a shoe factory. It hasn’t been profit­ able. The Saskatchewan Government have a number of other industries which have not been profitable. This is not surprising. Most people in Canada were aware of the fact that the manufacturing business requires ability and experience. It is highly important that those who are in it should have a very definite interest in the business. The Scotch have a phrase for this: “The eye of the master fattens the cattle.” It is much the same in business, the man who has his money in a. plant watches it carefully. A government which hires men to run a business and wants the workers to vote for it, is not likely to make profits in business. There is $100,000 invested in the plant. It employs according to Mr. Fines, fifty men. No reports have been made on the operations of the plant, at least not up to date but Mr. Fines has an observation to make, it is very interesting, here it is: “Suppose the Shoe Factory at the end of a year shows a loss on the books of $15,000. Is that a loss? I think not. We have em­ ployed 50 people, representing 50 families, in a brand new business, the first; of its kind in the Prov­ ince. Had we not started the fac­ tory half the present employees might have been on relief. We might have paid these 25 fami­ lies or more, some $18,000 in re­ lief. So, you seethe Shoe Factory instead of being a loss—really shows a profit of $3,000 to the Province as a whole.” When Lo«*e* Are Profitable which the factory was started. Didn’t he and his confreres have the idea that they would be able to com­ pete quite successfully with factories in the East and that the people of Saskatchewan might thereby get cheaper shoes? The man who can process fhey would reduce the total capital available for other purposes. Mr. Fihes should seek a better alter­ native investment for the capital now devoted to this purpose. They Have a Value Here is where the mathematics of Mr. Fines comes into play. It seems there is an investment of $100,00*) in this plant. If there is a lossXf $15,000, then that loss must !■• charged up against the plant so tkzt 15*/'r of the capital of the industry I is already gone. If that plan is sue-1 ccssful, in the opinion of Mr. Fines, will he apply it to all his manufac­ turing operations. Unfortunately if j the same thing happens with all the plants they will have lost all their capital in seven years. So by that form of mathematics the Prov- vince will gain. He might be right at that! ■Mr. Fines is now making the ex­ planation that this factory employed ! certain men and to that extent there j was a gain. Does Mr. Fines mean to ; tell us that this was the object for turn so quickly is more than a mathematician, he is a genius, but what hapens if all his ventures turn out the same way? The only possible conclusion is that genius is unprofit­ able—to the tax payer. Heads I W in-Tails Also Did Mr. Fines, tell those who put up the money that this was a remedy for unemployment and not to be taken seriously as a business proposi­ tion? Was there unemployment in Saskatchewan in this period? It was a time when employment was at a very high level. What right would Mr. Fines have to charge the unem­ ployment to one of his business in­ stitutions—were they the cause of it. Should not every tub stand on its own bottom. What would happen if this were generally applicable to a government that had a large number of industries. Would it be profitable for them to go ahead solving their problem of unemployment by cieat­ ing unprofitable factories? By this While the full facts are not yet available in regard to these indus­ tries nevertheless they have served a purpose. The Government in this brief effort has learned that it may safely start an industry such as a printing press to which it contributes a great deal of money for printing political literature. It can run an in­ dustry where it has the power over the purchases of the people and can therefore compel them to contribute i to its support. It may successfully run a monopoly. In that case there is no i competition, the public has to take ! what is offered. At the moment there is approximaely $3,000,000 of Sas­ katchewan money invested in Gov­ ernment industries in the Province. They are not likely to pay substantial ■ dividends but if the new government which thought to wax fat and prosper from its business activities has learn­ ed its lesson, it will be good for the province—perhaps cheap at the price. "SNOWY OWL" by T. M. Shortl, Ornithologist. The above Ultutration show* the enowy owl in hi* eouthern ■utroundlnga. Down from the icy wastes of the Arctic, the SnowyOwl glides into a farmyard. Driven from his northern home by the periodic scarcity of lemmings, his favourite rodent food, the valuable bird seeks rats, mice and otherdespoilers of food and grain. Thus the snowy owl earns protection from us by helping to conserve our food supplies. ♦ "The people of Canada can perform a usefulservice to birds by providing food and shelter . . . when their food becomes temporarily inaccessible." * SSJS0T?.b?“r<iS>,,?BVAT,OM AMD h up ros otm CARLING’S THE CARLING BREWERIES LIMITEDWATERLOO AND WAUCERVlLLF.

Thiswas partially due to diversion toother dairy products but can also beattributed to some decline in milkproduction in the cheese areas ofOntario and Quebec.Under the present contract, theBritish Ministry of Food has agreedto buy 125 million pounds of cheese for the year ending March 31, 1948, at a price of 20 cents per pound f.o.b. factory shipping point or grad­ ing station shipping point and has at the same time indicated a willingness to extend the contract until March 31, 1949, at a price to be determined at a later date. The domestic market will require at least 55 million pounds of cheese per year for the next two years and in addition approximately 3 million pounds have been allocated for ex­ port to other countries. This means that there is a market for at least 183 million pounds of cheese in 1947 and 1948. In addition to the contract price of 20 cents per pound f.o.b. factory shipping point or grading station shipping point for cheese, the Do­ minion government pays a quality premium of 1 or 2 cents per pound on h!j»h grade cheese and under the tinue to pay the producers’ subsidy present Order in Council will con- of 30 cents per 100 pounds of milk used in the manufacture of cheddar cheese until April 30, 1947. Ontario also paid a bonus of 2 cents per pound on all cheddar cheese manu-1 NEED MORE BUTTERTO MAINTAIN RATIONProduction of creamery butter in1946 totalled 270 million pounds, adecrease of 8 per cent from 1946,while dairy butter production wasestimated at 55 million pounds. Thisproduction of 325 million poundswas not sufficient to maintain a 6-ounce ration in 1946 and may notprovide sufficient stocks to meet a6-ounce ration in the first 4 monthsof 1947. Dairy butter production hasbecome relatively stabilized atapproximately 55 million poundswhich means that creamery butterproduction would have to total 296million pounds in 1947 if the 6-ounceration is to be maintained from domestic productin. On the basis of a per capita con­ sumption of 32 pounds per annum (1940-42 average) it has been estim­ ated that the butter requirements in Canada would total 345 million pounds of creamery and 53 million pounds of dairy butter or approxi­ mately 80 million pounds higher than 1946 production. Each pound change in the per capita rate represents approximately 12% million pounds of butter per annum. A producer’s subsidy of 10 cents per pound of butterfat used in the manufacture of creamery butter is payable under the present Order in Council until April 30, 1947. TIMOTHY SEED OUTLOOK factured in the province during the. prevailing for While the production of timothy seed in -Canada in 1946 at 930,- 000 pounds was about 400,000 less than in 1945, there is however, a sufficient supply available to meet all | requirements.

FIRE DESTROYS SERVICE STATION Culloden—Fire destroyed the Cul­ loden Service Station, owned by Rob­ ert Lover, on New Year’s eve. The Tillsonburg Fire Department was called at 5.35 and remained at tha fire for about an hour and a half. The loss is estimated’ by Mr. Lover at $8,000 which is partially covered by insurance. The fire started as coke was being put into the stove. The coke exploded and the flames went up to the low ceiling in that part of the service station and then into a room overhead. Mr. Lover and Lome McEwen, who operated the service station for him, used fire extinguishers in a futile attempt to combat the spreading fire. Neighbors worked with the firemen from Tfll- sonbuj< in fighting the fire. MILLER Z MOTOR M OS Your dkneral M^ers Dealer Cher, a Old^P- Cher.

But look at it an­other way. Women the worldover long for romance. A good­looking, suave, sophisticated guylike me is the answer to theirprayers. Isn’t that something inmy favor? I was the dreamcome true for dozens of womenwho never knew an evening ofromance in their lives.” “And Sally Alliston was one of them." Her lips were full, in­viting, as she deliberately swayed toward him. “And—andSally Alliston didn’t mind.” “Little Sally." His voice wasaffectionate. “I knew all alongthat you weren’t really angrywith me." “I know, darling. I could nev­er be angry with you.” "By force of habit, his armswent around her, and then shewas pressed close to him,pressed close and looking up athim with adoring eyes. He touched her hair, the sweetcurve of her cheek and laughed.“Sweet Sally.”As he kissed her she wondered —wondered about Mike and Hel­en and Dronda, wondered about Jimmy and herself.Then she stopped wondering,and extricated herself quitecoolly from his arms. “Jimmy,darling, we'll be late for theshow." “Hang the show! Let’s gosomewhere and talk."“But Dronda. . . .”“Funny,” he said in an oddvoice, “I suddenly don’t care a hoot about what Dronda says.Sally. . . “But I wouldn’t think of miss­ing the show for anything I” The Romantic Blitzkrieg, inan evening gown that showed herfigure to its best advantage, smiled at Mike gaily from thedressing-table. “I received your message."“Naturally, otherwise youwould not be here. I suppose Jimmy told you about us?” “Yes. I was rather surprised.” “And you don’t approve,either?” He crossed his ’«--s negligent­ly. “I have no right to pass judg­ment on you.” “But you’re a friend of his,ain’t you—I mean aren’t you?Some day I’m going to murderthat word 'ain’t.* And a friendhas rights.” “I’ve been wondering, lately,if Jimmy is anyone’s friend.”“He isn’t.” . “You say that, you who aregoing to marry him?” “Maybe I’m not going to mar­ry him, Mike.” He couldn’t hide his ('amaze-ment. “But — but Jimmy toldme it was all settled.” “I’ve been doing some think­ ing, Mike. Lots of it, ever sincehe barged into me backstageand kissed me. A guy like Jim­my isn’t much good. He breakstoo many hearts, too many nice hearts. Sally’s, for instance.” “Her heart is all right," hesaid stoutly."Is it? I hope so. She’s a nicekid. You should have seen the way she came to help him.” “Yet you went on using Jim­my. Those stories! I supposeyou know that he’s finished in­sofar as the Comet Airlines isconcerned? If there's one thing Mr. Perkin dislikes it’s a fool.” “I had to use somebody,chum. Tony Wyndham doesn’tlike it if you don’t take his sug­ gestions. And Jimmy camealong, made to order. If I hadto hurt somebody, why nothim?” “You don’t love him, do yoh?"“No." “You aren’t going to marryhim, are you?" Before he got his answer, BillBurke opened the door and roared, “On stage, Dronda.Knock them dead!"The "ordinary girl” became,suddenly, a ghttering star. She rose, patted Mike on the shoul­der, and went swaying out togreet her pubHc. Then the orchestra struck a ■chord and she was singing, sing­ing the way she had that eveningthat seemed so long ago to Sally. Helen’s hand hurt as she dug itit into Sally’s arm.“Gee, she’s good!”“My future wife," braggedJimmy.Sally flung him a swift look.Jimmy had eyes for no one butDronda, and those eyes weregleaming with triumph, posses­sion. Unaccountably, she re­membered the way Mike’s eyeshad looked just a short hour be­fore in the dark. She smiledquietly to herself, as thunderousapplause rocked the auditorium.Did Jimmy really know his owntnind? Suddenly she had thefeeling that her hope would be­come a reality. “Darling, stop fidgeting!"whispered Helen fiercely. “Darling” did. just as Drondastepped closer to the footlights. “Ladies and gentlemen — no,don’t(get excited, I’m not goingto make a long speech. I justwanted to say that this is thehappiest evening of my life. To­morrow I leave for Hollywoodand a career in motion pic­tures. ..." She smiled and waited for and louder as they ran up theaisle.Helen, looking at them flee,felt like crying — while Drondalaughed at Bill Burke, happierthan he had ever been In all hislife, keep right on taking bows.But his bowing stopped whenhe went backstage to find him­self confronted by a cold MikeWhite. The burly captaincaught him by the lapels of hiscoat and pulled him close.“Get out there and say thewhole thing is a lie,” Mr. Burke.”“How dare you!""Did you have to twist a knifein his heart?"Dronda, attracted by the com­motion, came scurrying backand clouted Mike solidly on thejaw. "You take your hands offhim, chum!”Mike was beside himself with rage. “By heaven, if you weren’ta lady!” “But I am a lady, so there.Do you think if I wasn’t a ladyI’d have done that to Jimmy? You bet I wouldn’t have. I’dhave let him get away with it. And all his life he’d have goneon breaking people’s hearts. “Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. William Burke!” more cheers to subside.“And tomorrow I am to bemarried.” Jimmy stiffened in his chair.“But she can’t be,” Helen shot out, unable to keep the secret.“She can’t. . . .” “Shut up!” growled Jimmy. “Yes, ladies and gentlemen,tomorrow I am to be married.I think you all know the gentle­man; his pictures have ap­ peared in the papers and he,more than anyone else, is re­sponsible for tiie Hollywood ex­pedition." More cheers, but not quite soenthusiastic as before. It was as though the audience resented thefact that some ordinary man wasgoing to get The Romantic Blitz-krieg for a wife.“May I introduce him toyou?” Jimmy started to his feet as the audience howled back a loudand boisterous “No!" Dronda laughed. “Ladies andgentlemen, Mr. William Burke!” Jimmy was halfway up the aisle before he really understoodwhat was happening. He stoppedand stared as Bill Burke camebriskly out onto the stage,stopped and stared while hissenses swam, while his wholeworld shook and spun. "Dronda!” he shouted hoarse­ ly.The Romantic Blitzkrieglooked down at him and laughed. It was the coldest laugh Sallyhad ever heard, and a chill ran through her. Suddenly all heranger with Jimmy left her; sud­denly she was out of her seatand running toward him, a sym­pathetic cry bursting from herthroat. “Dronda!" Jimmy’s, voice rang out. "You—you can’t dothis to me!” “Holy smoke!" shouted a sol­dier. “It’s that airplane guy!” A long, loud hoot sweptthrough the crowd. Jimmywhirled to face them, his face red-purple with fury and indig­nation; them, even as Sallyreached him, the face seemed to cave in. Suddenly he was justa kid, a frightened, humiliatedkid. “Jimmy. let’s get out of here!” “Sally. 1-1. . . . ’’ “Yes, Jimmy, I know." The hooting became louder Well, you listen to me. Love ain’ta game. It’s serious. And anyguy who thinks it is a game de­serves to get it in the neck theway Jimmy did. You all right,Bill?” “You’ve broken him, do youhear?” whispered Mike, horri­ fied. "Didn't you sec his face?”"Yeah, and I also saw Sallylead him out. Tell me, Mike,what happened to you?”The sudden switch confounded him. “To me? I don't count.What counts is. . . .” “That's where you’re wrong,Mike. You do count. You’re ahuman being and every hu­man being counts. Why don'tyou go after her?”“Why?” he asked wearily.“You might be surprised,chum. Hey, I got a show to do!”She turned and dashed backonto the stage. Bill Burke, for­giving, patted Mike’s shoulderconfidentially. “Dronda secs alot, Mike. Maybe you will be sur­prised.” “Maybe not,” he growled. | "Sally," he whispered finally,“I was wrong about you. You'reswell.” “Yes, Jimmy, I’m swell. Youshould have known that a longtime ago.”"I—I wasn’t myself, I guess.I never could resist a prettyface. You know, it’s like theother pasture always being greener. But I never stopped lik­ing you, Sally, never stopped lik­ing you very much.” "My pet, do you remember acertain conversation we had atyour room one day?” He caught her to him, the moonlight causing the remainsof his tears to glisten. “Sally,I’m not a fool any more. Yourloyalty brought me to my senses.You were the only one to comerunning to help me. They wereall hooting and laughing, but notyou. Sally, I know this soundsawful, but could - we start allover again? Could we, Sally? I swear I won't let you down.”“I know you wouldn’t, Jimmy.You’d be afraid to. Dronda did a good job. You won’t be quiteso happy-go-lucky and confidentagain.”“Sally, let's talk about our­selves. To hell with Dronda. To hell with her!” “Such language, my pet."(TO BE CONTINUED) Mrs. Nellie Keys.

RECORD PACK FRUITS, VEGETABLES IN 1946 In n recent address on the outlook for 1947 to the Ontario Canned Foods Association convention at Ni­ agara Falls, F. J. Perry. Chief Can­ ning Inspector, Fruit and Vegetable Division, Dominion Department of Agriculture, said that the figures of the estimated total pack of canned fruits and vegetables clearly indi­ cated that the 1946 pack of some of the commodities was a record, and that if there were another bumper pack in 1947 it would bring about a return to normal supply. In another year, said Mr. Perry, canners would be looking for ex­ ports. At the present time, exports were on a quota basis and would so remain for some time until there was assurance of a reasonably fair supply for the domestic market. Over and above the present quota for export, it was hoped that 75,000 cases of Choice Qualitly tomatoes nnd 500,000 cases of Fancy nnd Choice Quality tomato juice would be ob­ tained for Great Britain. Probably the supply for juice would be met but there was likely to be a consid­ erable falling down on the canned tomatoes, due to the poor quality of the pack, because much of it was graded Standard. Great Britain would also like to obtain a further supply of 50,000 cases of peaches and 50,000 cases of plums. There was no set-aside for these particular lots. If their requests could not be met. every effort should be made to ship at least a fair quantity of peaches, because, undoubtedly in years to SALFORD New Year’s guests of Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Baskette were Mr. and Mrs.George Connor of Aylmer and Mr.and Mrs. Archie Gregg.
