St. Paul’s Church' Held Annual Meeting Members and adherents of St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church, attend ing the annual meeting on Wednes day evening, heard very gratifying reports of the various organizations, all of which indicated satisfactory progress as having taken place dur ing the past year. The pastor of the church, Rev. George W. Murdoch, conducted the devotions and Mr. Gordon Pittock, chairman of the Board of Managers, presided over the business proceedings. The treasurer’s report, presented by Mr. J. G.

Borrowman, C. A. Love. , Auditors—J. J. McArthur, J. M. Eskimo Craft on Display at Library An exhibit of unusual interest at the Public Library, shows examples of Canadian Eskimo Crafts. In a land of ice and snow during most of the year, with veqy little vegetation of any kind, it is quite amazing to see what is made by its native inhab itants. Certain sterling qualities are evidently possessed by those people, with so little of wordly wealth, for the fine work done indicates re sourcefulness, patience and dexter ity. They have not facilities of machine shop or factory, and yet in the models of the Umiak and Kayak are shown boats strong enough to carry several people and to with stand Arctic currents, the formei used in travelling along the coast the latter,.^ one-man boat used in hunting. The Eskimo has no elaborate fish ing tackle, but from walrus tuflks he fashions an ivory sinker, smiled and weighted to perform the requirements perfecthr. In the collection it also a horn spoon, stone lamps for burning whale \>il, arrows, stone dish, chipped stone)scraper, soapstone vessel, beautifully shaped; all cast ing light on the habits and traits of a group of our fellow Canadians, in which they show to great advantage. Thia exhibit which is circulated among small libraries, by the Art Gallery and Museum of London, is part of a lang’er exhibit at the Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto. It will be in Ingersoll till February 1st, and should be found interesting by a great many people.

Group "B" ’hoopla’ clash of the season. Tillson burg displayed a smooth passing game which left the I.C.I. squad on the short end of a 34-10 score at the final whistle. Richards for the visit ors counted for 12 points, while "fatulis tallied most for the Ingersoll Cagers. Teams were as follows: Tillsonburg High School—J. Stro bel, A. Walsh, D. Bennett, T.

The Oxford County-Ingersoll Health Unit became a reality on January 1, 1947, as a result of arrangements made by the Ingersoll Town Council with the County Coun cil of Oxford whereby the public health requirements of Ingersoll will now be looked after by the newly formed Oxford County-Ingersoll Health Unit The formation of the new Unit results in the dissolution of the Ing ersoll Board of Health, its work now being done by the Oxford County- Ingersoll Board of Health, which is composed of five members as fol lows: One from Ingersoll, three from the County and one provincial repre sentative. The Ingersoll public health nurse will continue in the same capacity as an employee of the newly formed Unit, but the work of the other public heath workers has been assumed by the former em ployees of the Oxford County Health Unit, which means 'that all duties pertaining to Medical Health Offi cer will be assumed by the County M.O.H. and those of the sanitary inspector by the County sanitary in spectors. This accounts for the appearance in Ingersoll of the county sanitary inspectors who are engaged in a sanitary survey of the Town that the Unit may have knowledge of the problems confronting them. Any matters pertaining to public health should now be referred to the central office in the Court House, Woodstock, phone 690 or to your local nurse, Miss McNaughton. From time to time, through the courtesy of the Tribune, the Board hopes to keep the people of Ingersoll informed as to the programme and progress of the Unit, whose success depends on a continuance of the very fine support always given the health department by the people of Ingersoll.

HEARD HOME-TOWN CHOIR ON RADIO Mr. Harold Smith, manager of Loblaw’s, had a pleasant experience while listening to the radio last Sun day afternoon, when on the B.B.C. general overseas programme, he heard a choir from his home town in Northern Ireland. Before coming to Canada, Mr. Smith sang in that choir, in St. Patrick’s Parish Church, Newry, County Down, and it afforded him extreme pleasure to hear the familiar voice of his former rector, Rev. Furness, as he announced the hymns; and the playing of the organ ist, Miss Flora Allen, as well as the singing of many of his friends who are still in thd choir. Since coming to Ingersoll, Mr. Smith has been a valued member of the choir of St. James’ Anglican Church. During recent years, the radio has carried a great deal of news to sad den the heart, so it is nice that with the return of peace, these overseas broadcasts are bringing messages from various places in the British Isles, describing well-loved, familiar scenes, such as Even Song in a par ish church, to people far from their native land. rOn next Sunday’s programme, there will‘be service from a church in Stirling, Scotland. MAGAZINE EDITOR ADDRESSES LIONS CLUB RECEPTION HELD FOR POLISH VETERANS The Catholic Women’s League, assisted by the Holy Name Society and the Blessed Virgin’s Sodality of the Church of the Sacred Heart, entertained the veteraris of the parish, as well as the Polish veterans, at a reception in the Sacred Heart Hall on Tuesday evening.

Mr. Fred McDermott, of the local National Employment Service office, introduced (Mr. W. Gumiela of Ottawa, official interpreter of the N.E.S., who addressed the Polish veterans in their own language, ex plaining that Mr. McDermott would adjust any difficulties that might arise between the Polish veterans and their employers. He also urged the veterans to learn the’ English language as soon as possible, as most difficulties arise from misunderstand ings. Mr. McDermott thanked the farm ers for bringing the men to the hall and at the request of .Mrs. Shand asked Mr. Gumiela to ask the guest* to sing some of their native songs. These were greatly enjoyed. Mr. (McDermott and Mr. Gumiela expect to visit the farmers employ ing these veterans during the com ing week.

There was a very large attendance at the regular meeting of the' Inger soll Lions Club on 'Monday evening with President A. G. Murray presid ing. During the evening, Jack Park hill contributed several piano acdor- dian selections which were much appreciated. The speaker of the evening was International Councillor, Charles W. Carter, editor of the Lions News, a publication of interest to Lions in Canada. Mr. Carter told of the activ- ties of his home club at Bowman- ille and outlined the progress of groups or clubs as a social medium. He stated that it is known that there was a woman’s club in Athens as early ase100 A,D. and also cited dates in early British history where groups had gathered regularly to discuss problems. This was said by the speaker to have been the Jot.i- dation for the many splendid Service Clubs in existence to-day. People have gotten away from the system of “dog eat dog”, and have turned to a desire to give service and assistance to those in less fortunate circumstances. The work among the teen age groups pro.vides a very large field for service and makes an opportunity for a better Canada and; a better world. In closing the speaker reminded the Lions that the future is waiting for service and advised that the sacrifices of the past could be of great assistance in making the effort worthwhile. The speaker was introduced by Lion Cliff Hines and a vote of appre ciation was given by Lion Jack Shut tleworth. Two new members were inducted into the club and C. K. Hoag repre senting the Canadian Legion ad^ dressed the gathering briefly, out lining the plans for a new Legon Hall. Arrangements are being made for members to attend a zone meeting in Guelph and for the annual charter night of the club.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 30th, 1947 Canadian Towns Concerned With Imminent World Decisions In March and April Canadian government representatives will sit around a table in Europe with negotiators from sixteen other nations. They will make decisions which will affect employment and world trade for many years. These meetings will be held thousands of miles away from Canada in an atmosphere heavy with the clash of gigantic interests. In such an environment, it is possible that matters of prime importance to many small towns and village® in Canada may be overlooked. Numerous small municipalities in Canada, which perform the important function of serving the people in the surrounding rural areas as social and trading centres, depend for their existence and growth on the pay-roll and taxes provided by local manufacturing Industrie* To live, these in dustries must not only compete successfully with industries in other towns operating under Can adian conditions, but must also compete with goods made in other countries under conditions entirely different to those existing in Canada. Mayors and civic officials well know that it is not the workers in other countries, making goods to be shipped into and sold in Canada, who wear out the doorsteps of our local retailers, subscribe to the local newspaper, queue up at local movies, live in houses built by local bricklayers and car penters, or call in the local doctor to ensure happy landings for new Canadians. It is gainfully employed Canadians who ensure the activity of Canadian towns. Bowmanville has industries which may be affected by decisions made at the international trade conferences. No doubt the manufacturers have already put their views on trading agree ments and tariffs before Ottawa. However, our Town Council seized with the importance of this gathering in Europe passed a resolution at its in augural meeting to be forwarded to the Minister of Finance telling him how important our indus tries are to Bowmanville and its citizens, and asked that great care be taken that no agreements be reached which will reduce the employment po tential of our local industries. Man lives in a community where he can earn his daily bread and that of his children. When this is no longer poss ible he moves elsewhere. What applies to Bowmanville undoubtedly applies to other similarly situated municipalities in Canada. For example, Canada’s textile industry operates 617 manufacturing establishments in 183 villages, towns and cities. It is essentially a small town, small unit industry. If it should be adversely affected by decisions made at meetings in Europe, these municipalities for years to come will be ad versely affected. It would appear that other civic officials throughout Canada should take immediate action because communities and industries must live together, one is dependent on the other, both have common interests—(The Canadian States man, Bowmanville.) Ernest Cody, just turned 17, youngest son of Postmaster E. J. Cody of Embro, has joined the British Navy and leaves this week for Halifax. S. A. Gibson of Ingersoll, had a splendid lot of birds at the recent Clinton Poultry Show and was successful in winning nineteen first and nine second prizes. At the inaugural meeting of the 1917 County Council of Oxford Countqy, R. A. Webber, reeve of East Zorra, was selected Warden after five votes. On Monday night at the Mason Arena, the local junitfs defeated Tillsonburg in an OH.A. fixture. The visitors scored their only goal in the first per iod while the local boys piled up eleven in the last period. Two rinks of Ingersoll curlers went to London last Friday to compete in the District Cup Compe tition. Both were defeated. The rinks: N. Allison, J. Walley, K. Rae and J. Anderson, sto;. G. M. McKay, A. E. Wilson, M. J. ComiskeT” and C. Rogers, skip. Mrs. H. G. Hall held her post-nuptial reception at her home, comer of Albert and Francis streets. Mrs. J. J.

Dur ing that week an effort will be made to awaken in our Canadian people a consciousness of the value of good health, personal, communal and national, and to develop that awareness of the value of good health into vigorous action to secure better habits and standards of health by persona! be haviour and by legislation. Elfe is a series of lessons and their application. When we cease to learn, we cease to live, in the full sense of the word; and if we cannot apply the lessons learned, we are unfit to live. Probably those people who value good health most, are those who have, for a time at least, been deprived of it. But by such a method, humanity consigns itsejf to a hard school, with, an appallingly high rate of casualties—for instance, sixteen people in Canada die from tuberculosis each day of the year. Other preventable diseases also claim great numbers of lives that should be allowed to complete the pormal span. In the programme arranged by the Health League, a mo|e intelligent and economical course is offered to Canadians. They may have the benefitof scientific ^research findings in immunization, pasteurization, mental health, social hygiene and sanitation. The latest methods of applying those findings are available to all, and are in keeping with human progress. To ignore them is to take a step backwards. < Although one particular week has been chosen for emphasis on healthful living, it should be con sidered at all times—every week should be health week. Life is precious - - To value it is human, and it should be lived in the best way possible; which is the .healthy way, for, “The First Wealth is Health.” The young people of St. Paul’s Church held “An Evening with Bums”, which was one of the most entertaining programs ever held by the society. Taking part on the program were R. A. Paterson, paper, “Life and Work of Burns”; H. C. Ross re cited “Tam O’Shanter”; Mrs. Gordon Paterson feang, “Ye Banks and Braes”; Miss Nestle Murray sang “I’m Glad My Heart’s My Ain.” The presi dent, Walter Winlaw occupied the chair. The annual At Home of the Literary Society of the Collegiate Institute was greatly enjoyed by the large attendance of students, relatives and friends. Those/taking part on the program were: Garnett Francis, president's address; Misses Ethel Rogers and Edith Elliott, piano duet; Mrs. Jos. Janes, vocal solo; R. B. Hutt, address; Miss Helen Watterworth, violin solo; Miss M. Wilson, vocal Psolo; Miss A.

Several factors contribute to the icy condition of the street, some of which are beyond control. For a time the sidewalks wefe in a treacherous condition, and it was feared there would be many falls and serious injuries, resulting. However, .enquiries reveal that such ha t not been the case, so credit is due to the timely action of the Board of Works in having a thorough job of sanding dona.

L. Schwarts — MORE SPEED When it is considered that the last session was opened on March 14 and prorogued only on August 30 and that, in face of a last minute rush, there were still bills which could not be passed, it is clear why stories are heard now on Parliament Hill that greater speed may «be witnessed tn this new third session of the 20th Parliament, though there is much work ahead and observers predict that debates may be “hot” on a large number of outstanding issues on the agenda. CONSOLIDATION AND , REDUCTION The widespread consolidation of activities of the three armed forces of Canada, it is reported in Ottawa, .will allow the National Defence De partment to bring about a “substan tial reduction” in the civilian per sonnel, ineluding Civil Service, so that cuts in the 1947-1948 estimates may be impressive, with one report indicating that the Department would probably save about 150,000,000 on the 1946-1947 estimates of $440,- 000.000 for the three services. In addition, it is revealed in Ot tawa that provision has been .made for about $13,000,000 fos. military research in the current year and this means that Canada will be spending about one-twentieth of her defence expenditures on research, this being almost the same proportion as the United States with whom Canada works in close co-operation as well aa with the United Kingdom. others of top-ranking position in thegovernmental service, includingsome salaries boosted to $17,500, such aa the Deputy Minister of Fin ance and President of National Ro earch Council, the Civil Service Association in Ottawa has called on the Federal Government to carry out these increase? "all down the line.” “The spirit of the Gordon Report recommendation obviously does not propose wage increases restricted to a few officials,” said R. H Tabel, president of the aforementioned Civil Service Association. The Gon- don Report was given by a Royal Commission on Administrative Class ifications in the public service with respect to salaries. URGE LIFTING OF TAXES A 14-man delegation, headed by George S. Hougham, general man ager. Canadian Retail Federation and including representatives from other bodies, such as retail Mer chants* Association of Canada, Re tail Furriers’ Guild of Canada, and the Canadian Importers and Trader^’ Association, have presented a brief to Finance Minister Douglas Abbott in Ottawa, urging the Canadian Government to consider lifting of all taxes at the retail level, includ ing special excise taxes applied to certain commodities in the 1942 amendments to the Warr Revenue Act on the ground that these wi?re dis criminatory. They argued that the continuation of such taxes was in- terferring with production. ft was also alleged that the term “luxury” is relative being "concerned not so much with the intrinsic value of the merchandise as with the income of the individual purchasing it” ST. COLUMBA W.M.S. MET AT MRS. E. KERR’S PREDICTS END OF LEGISLATION Canada's Deputy Minister of Lab our. Arthur MacNamara, has stated in this capital that a “substantial meas ure” of agreement has been reached between the Federal and Provincial Governments for new legislation on labour matters to replace PC1003, the wartime legislation on labour of the Federal Government, with the fore cast being made by this top-ranking official that present legislation will continue only for a few more months and making this statement in refer ence to proposals for a national labour code forVlanada. SUBSIDIES AND COSTS It appears now in Ottawa that it is a question of a relatively short time when the Canadian Government will drop all or almost all subsidies of a certain type so that observers expect that merchandising costs in some lines may go up considerably in this country. Last fall the Can adian Government ’had dropped sub sidies in some degree and reports of further action along this road has been anticipatetd here for a long time, especially recalling that a spokesman had declared that “sub sidies cannot be justified in normal peace-time economy.” At their peak, these subsidies had cost the Can adian Government an annual sum of $130,000,000 this occurring in 1945. However, it was argued that, with out these subsidy payments, taxpay ers would have been compelled to pay more in the end through higher prices. The regular monthly meeting of the St. Columba W.M.S. was held on Thursday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Erwood Kerr. The hymn, “Standing at the Portal of the Opening Year”, was sung with Mrs. Oliver Smith at the piano and the new president, Mrs. Arthur Hutchi son, presiding over the meeting. Prayer was offered by Rev. C. E. Taylor and Mrs. Emin Hossack read the Scripture lesson The minutes of the last meeting and the treasurer’s report were read and approved. Each member responded to the roll call by the paying of fees. An impressive installation service was conducted by Rev. Taylor when the officers for 1947 pledged themselves to their work. Mrs. Wm. Patience, Mrs. Wm. Matheson and Mrs. Geo. Kerr were appointed delegate's to the annual meeting of the Oxford Presbyterial to be held in Woodstock on January 31st. Mrs. Arthur Seldon favoured with two pleasing solos, “Abide with Me”, and “The Ninetw and Nine.’” Rev. Taylor broughtM New Year’s message to the meeting, basing his remarks on “Ring out the old, ring in the new ring out the false, ring in the true.” The first chapter of the study book, “India at the Threshold” was ably given by 'Mrs. Oliver Smith and Mrs. R. J. Kerr gave an appro priate selected reading. The meet ing was closed with a hymn and prayer by the president. A. W. BURCHELL HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED TO LONDON BRANCH AWAITING BREAK ft is believed in Ottawa unoffic ially that the meat supply situation in various-sections of this country is changing for the better, though by no means entirely satisfactory. There seems to be a reasonable amount of beef available in many parts ofrthe country and this is also true of lamb, with pork-products being in poor supply. Moreover, behind the supply picture there is speculation that shortages may be caused in many sections by the possible unwillingness of producers to send their cattle to market be cause they are hopeful of somethnig happening which will give them greater returns. At least, this latter explanation is heard in mightly loud whispers now-a-d^ys even along Parliament Hill where a general im provement in meat supplies appears to be the dominant opinion at the -present time. I Mr. A. W. Burchell, for the. past ten years accountant at the iocal branch of the Bank of Montreal, leaves on the first of February for London, for duty nt the main office of the bank. Since coming to Inger soll. Mr. Burchell has taken part in various activities connected with the life of the town. He served as both rector’s and people’s warden of St. James’ Anglican Church, and is a member of the Board of Managers. He is also on the executive of the Ingersoll Boy Scout Association, afid for a number of years has acted as secretary-treasurer of the Ingersoll Branch of the Upper Canada Bible Society, as well as being an honorary members of the officers* mess of “D” Company, Oxford Rifles. Both Mr. and Mrs. Burchell have many friends who will regret their departure from town. Mrs. Burchell and family will remain in Ingersoll for a month or so.

A serving of potatoes every day is demanded by food rules for good health. Some people follow this rule without giving it a thought But not everyone is quite that en thusiastic about our good friend the potato which puts it up to the cook to do a spot of luring, with a dif ferent presentation of the valued vegetable as bait There are some who have boasted that they need not serve potatoes twice the same way in a whole calendar year. I do not approve too much of that procedure myself, looking at the queston from the dietetic point of view. There are some ways to serve potatoes which make them much more valuable, nutritionally, than other ways can ever do—and so these should be featured. It is well established that the best part of the vegetable lies just beneath the akin too closely allied to that for us to hope to do *any peeling in the raw state without cutting away very valuable constituents. So, of course, our best practice is to cook the potato, skin and all—which ■ means, for the most part, steaming or boil ing or baking. The last method is su preme favourite, both from the en joyment and the nutritional point ofview. But there are other factors to be considered besides the straight ques-I tion of what is the one best thing to I do with a food product. Potatoes can I be substituted for many expensive or hard-to-get foods? For example, mashed potatoes can be used to thicken soups instead of flour and bacon fat; to thicken sauces instead of flour and butter; to substitute for crumbs in poultry dressing; in pan cake batter for flavour; in yeast mix ture for good texture; add to ome lettes to make more of this dish; in dumplings (cooked or raw); also in many supper dishes as potato-fish pie, scalloped potatoes with saus ages, split weiners filled with mashed potatoes, potato souffle, pigs in ’taters, potatoes in half shell, potato celery and nut loaf and vegetable plates. GRATED POTATO SOUP 6 cups soup stock or consomme Thin slice of garlic One medium onion (minced) ■ 6 potatoes (grated.) Heat stock to boiling and add re maining ingredients. Simmer 20 minutes or until vegetables are ten der. Season with salt and pepper. Serves 8. SCALLOPED POTATOES 6 medium potatoes Salt and pepper 2 tbsps. flour 4 tbsps. butter Milk Pare potatoes and cut into thin slices. Place in a greased baking dish in 3 layers 1 inch deep, sprinkling each layer with salt, pepper and flour and dotting with butter. Add milk until it can be seen between slices of potato, cover and bake in electric oven (350' degs.F.) until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, 1 to 114 hours. Remove cover for the last 15 minutes to brown. Serve from baking dish. Serves 6. POTATOES WITH SAVORY SAUCE 4 potatoes 2 small onions cut into rings 4 tbsps. fat 2 tbsps. flour 1 cup milk 2 tsps, salt 1-4 tap. pepper 2 tbsps, chili sauce Grated cheese Pare potatoes and cut into long matchlike strips. Cook them in boil ing salted water until tender. Drain and place in a warm serving dish. Brown onion rings in fat, add flour and blend; add milk, salt, pepper chili sauce and cook, stirring con stantly until thickened. Pour over hot cooked potatoes and sprinkle with grated cheese. Serves four. BEYOND THE LAW by Sgt. Michael O'Hara, of the Mounted, a bom man hunter, fell in love with the wom an he had pursued into Arctic wilds as a murderess.
