W. Riley presided over the regu­ lar meeting of the Municipal Coun­ cil on Monday evening. A great deal of business was transacted and some interesting discussions took place. Communications took up consider­ able time and included a request from the Ingersoll Branch Canadian Legion for a grant of $5000. to assist in their building program. The Board of Education submitted their estim- -ated requirements for the year. The estimates for the Collegiate Institute to be raised by taxation is $19,914.- 52 and for Public Schools $33,281.- 89. This is an increase over last year’s requirements of $18,661.41, or 5.09 mills of the tax rate. ' Ora Circle of the King’s Daughters requested permission to hold a Tag Day on April 19, which was later granted. The Alexandra Hospital Trust asked for a grant of $1785.75 to cover a deficit in 1946 for indigent patients. County Clerk L. Coles advised the mayor of a meeting of representa­ tives of Ingersoll, Woodstock and the County of Oxford to discuss en­ larging or building a new registry office. Mayor Riley and Councillor Nunn attended the meeting on Tues­ day to represent Ingersoll. L. H. Snider wrote regarding the continuation of the Citizens' Rehabil­ itation Committee and asked for an appropriation of $700 to cover the expense of operation in 1947. The executive of the Community Recreational Centre asked for a grant of $2000 to assist them in their project The Parks Board appropriation of one mill estimates for Park purposes. The Municipal Board gave approv­ al to the Oxford and Ingersoll Health Unit and also submitted a revised by-law fop the purpose of providing $15,000.00 to cover the preliminary costs of the proposed sewerage pro- , ject. This was given two readings and will be returned for ratification by the Board. The Public Library Board sub­ mitted their estimates for 1947 as $3400.00 A lengthy outline of the gas situ­ ation and a resolution of support by the council in their endeavour to keep a good supply of gas was sub­ mitted by the Dominion Natural Gas Company. It is expected that gas will be piped from the United States and it would be necessary to raise the tariff ten cents per thousanc cubic feet on the present rates, if and when the vtork is accomplished. A resolution supporting the company was introduced by Councillors Mor­ son and Nunn and after some discus­ sion a vote was taken with Council­ lors -Murray and Wurker voting against the resolution.Councillor Fred Wurker gave a very full and comprehensive report on police matters, and stated that he felt that much of the criticism of the workings of the police force in Ingersoll is entirely unwarranted. He stated that the absence of major crime in the town was sufficient evi­ dence on the surface to give credit to the police department as operated in Ingersoll. A resolutien by Councillors Mor­ rison and Nunn named Mayor Riley to attend a meeting of the executive of the Association of Ontario Mayors and Reeves at a conference with Hon. George A. Drew and his cab­ inet on February 14th. Town Solicitor Warwick R. Mar­ shall advised the members of council that according to the Provincial Statutes that the giving of grants for any purpose is definitely without authority. In only one case can a grant be given and that is as a mem­orial to members of £he forces in the recent war . This (however, must be only by permission lof the Depart­ ment of Municipal Affairs. Several members of the council very definitely stated following this advice that the town would have to cease the giving of graqts without first obtaining the necessary author­ ity from the department. At the weekly meeting of the Ki- wanis Club held at the Coffee Shop, on Thursday evening, the club re­ ceived its letters patent, issued by the Provincial Secretary, incorpor­ ating it under the Ontario Compan­ ies* Act. By this act of incorpor­ ation, the club will function as any other corporation, -with all members sharing equally any liability that might devolve on the organization. Arrangements for this change of status were supervised by Kiwanian Warwick R. Marshall, chairman of the education, laws and regulations committee, who conducted the for­ malities at Thursday night’s meeting. The previously-elected officers were re-elected, and will continue to serve under the new set-up. They are as follows: Immediate Past President — H. Grant Small. President—L. B. Hyde. Vice-President —Bernie Zurbrigg. Secretary—J. G. Montgomery. Treasurer—T. N. Dunn. Directors—Lloyd Brown> W. L. Thurtell, J. J. McArthur, FT G. Rich, F. H. Stone, J. C. Herbert and S. Wadsworth. F. Earl Johnston was appointed representative of Kiwanis Interna­ tional in this district in connection with organizing new clubs. Members were reminded by Pre­ sident Hyde that this week Kiwanis International celebrates its 32nd an­ niversary in honour of which, a beau­ tiful birthday cake adorned the head table, and was cut by the club’s old­ est member, Mr. George Sutherland, a charter member and past president. Music was supplied by Kiwanian Currie Wilson, assisted by members of the music committee. Guest speaker for this (Thurs­ day) evening’s meeting will be Mr. William Henderson of Waterloo, who will speak on Robbie Burns. Stormy weather on Wednesday evening of last week prevented a great many people from attending Open House activities at the Inger­ soll Collegiate Institute, but those who braved the elements were re­ warded with an evening of intensely interesting entertainment. Visitors were greeted at the en­ trance by the students who acted as guides, conducting them through the building; finally forming groups in the various classrooms, where they heard speeches delivered by Principal J. C. Herbert and Mr. J. M. Mal­ colm, chairman of the Board of Edu­ cation, over the public address sy­ stem of the school. A very pleasing musical pro­ gramme by the Glee Club, under Miss Lillian Dobson’s supervision, was also given over the sound sy­ stem. The guests were taken to the classrooms to see demonstrations in science, directed by Mr. John Cle­ ment; typing, directed by Miss Ethel Barber; arts and crafts, by Miss Jean Sutherland. In the gymnasium they saw basketball games by boys and girls: the former under Mr. CurrieWilson’s supervision, the lattJS^n- der Miss Sutherland. Educational pictures, featuring scenes and epi­ sodes in Canadian life, were shown on the screen, with the newly in­ stalled projector, by students of Form 9A. These were particularly in­ teresting, as was also the scene from the play “Macbeth”, given by stu­ dents of Forms 12 and 13, super­ vised by Miss Edna Kennedy. Altogether the 500 parents and friends who signed the visitors' book, were greatly pleased with all they saw. and expressed high praise foi the splendid work being done for the youth of Ingersoll by Mr. Herbert and his staff, as well as for the mem­ bers of the Board of Education, who have given much thought and atten­ tion to the equipment and mainten­ ance of the town’s schools. Mr. E. Janes, a well known highly esteemed resident of Inger­ soll, celebrated his 96th birthday on Wednesday, February 5th. He was the recipient of many beautiful cards and congratulatory messages during the day. He is still quite active and able to be around and meet his friends. He makes his home with his son, Mr. George F. Janes and Mrs. Janes, Wellington street. The Tribune joins in extending congratulations to (Mr. Janes on attaining his 96th birthday. INGERSOLL COLLEGIATE DEFEATS THAMESFORD 3-2 The first hockey game of the sea­ son for the boys of, the Collegiate, was an exhibition game played here on Tuesday with the team of the Tuesday with Thamesford Continua­ tion School team. The local team was on the short end of a 2-0 score when Mac Cooper scored on an assist from Bob Connor • and two more goals by Bartram on an assist from Beemer and by Maurice, assisted by Beho and Wadsworth, gave Inger­ soll the win a well-played game. The Ingersoll Collegiate line-up was: Goal—Leo Connor; sub, Martin Brooks; defence, Joe Kurtzman, Jewett, Bartram, Beemer; forwards, Tatulisi L. Kurtzman, Vanatter, Wadsworth, Maurice, Beno, Cooper, B. Connor, Barker, Collins, Arnott, Jarrett. Referee—J. Cryderman.

CARD OF T1 ' 'Mrs. Annie I the many kind 1 for the use of q and cards ant shown in her rec LEGION NOTES Ingersoll Branch 119 Canadian Legion has itemized ten points in their organization as facts for the enlightenment of the public. These are as follows: 1. A new hall for meeting pur­ poses is needed. 2. One likes to help those who help themselves. 3. Legion members are canvass­ ing for help. 4. The local branch has already built the foundation hnd purchased the steel for the first floor, using their own (funds. 5. The campaign for funds is registered under the War Charities Act, and receipts for donations can be used for income tax deductions. fl. Following the war of 1914- 18, there'were many veteran organ­ izations, which were unsettled with the result that unrest developed and poorly presented requests to govern­ ment failed in their objectives. 7. Some hardships were experien­ ced during the post war period. 8. Today the great nation-wide organization speaks for all ex-service personnel. 9. The membership of the Can­ adian Legion reaches into every walk of life in Canada. 10. The Ingersoll membership forms a true cross section of the population of the town. The Canadian Legion in their campaign for furids is being assisted by an executive committee of repre­ sentative citizens with S. L. Shelton LARGE CROWD WITNESSEDICE FELLIES PROGRAMME Thirty-five members of the Strat­ ford Skating ’Club presented the third Annual Ice Follies at the Ing­ ersoll Community Recreational Centre, on Friday evening, spon­ sored by the Ingersoll Y’s Men’s Club. One thousand spectators en­ joyed the demonstration of these figure-skating artists, whose grace and charm of movement held the audience almost spellbound. Young Wayne Graham, aged 6 years, received hearty applause for his solo performance, as did also Judy Boltz, II; Joan Morris, 13 and the Grosch Twins, 8. These young skaters appear to have a promising future in figure-skating. The Blue Danube Waltz, done by Mary Moss and Lenore Fraser, was highly entertaining for its skid, as well as for the comedy it contained. Earl Myer, manager of the show, has had considerable experience in his line and he has brought the Strat­ ford Club up to a high standard. The Y’s Men’s Club are to be congratulated for having brought a first-clasg entertainment of this type to Ingersoll. Mr. Ken Ford received numerous congratulations for man­ aging the arrangements so capably. Mechanized Equipment Cleared Snow Away BUTTERFLY FOUND IN INGERSOLL HOUSE Traffic along Thames street, be­ tween King and Charles street*, was considerably congested following last week's heavy snowfall. Snow piled on each side of the road left little space for parking, with the re­ sult that motorist* parked their cars almost in the centre of the road, creating a dangerous situation. The Board of Works, under chair­ man Russell Nunn, took the matter in hand arranging with the Thames Valley Construction Co., Beach- ville, to use their tractor road scoop and trucks, in conjunction with Ing­ ersoll’s street maintainer. At midnight on Sunday, work was begun on the east side of the street, and by six o’clock on Monday morn­ ing that side had been cleared. On Monday night work commenced at 8 o’clock, all vehicular traffic being excluded from the street. It was the scene of great activity as the scrapers of the maintainer pushed the snow to the middle of the road where it was gathered up by the powerful scoops and deposited in the trucks, to be carried away. With the scraping away of the snow a good deal of ice was exposed, requir­ ing further sanding. The job has been done well and satisfaction has been expressed generally. The north wind may blow, but surely and steadily spring is drawing nearer, with more than lengthening daylight as an indication. Recently, a butterfly was found fluttering on a sunny window of an Ingersoll house. The warmth of the sunshine had evidently induced him to leave his cosy cocoon ahead of schedule. Seed catalogues are also here so the furnace man and snow-shoveller can think of the lawn mower and the spade-as occupying his attention before very long. Those lucky enough to have any, might look over the sap buckets too, for time can move so quickly. INTERESTING ACTIVITIES AT THE PUBLIC LIBRARY extending On Monday COUPLE HONOURED ON FORTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF THEIR WEDDING Leo XL Gent, B.A., who left the position of principal of Dorchester Public School1 some years ago to study law at Osgoode Hall, and who practiced law with Macfarlane, Thompson, Littlejohn and Martin, Corporation Barristers and Solicitors, Toronto, and later with Vining, Dyer and Grant, Barristers, etc., 101 Dundas Street, London, until his en­ listment, retired from the Canadian Active Army, effective January 17, 1947, to resume the practice of law, under his own firm name at 110 Dundas Street, London, with branch offices at Dorchester and Belmont.

Progress Shown in Alexandra Hospital Trust Annual Meeting Reports The annual meeting of the Alex­ andra Hospital Trust was held in the Council Chamber on Tuesday even­ ing. The meeting was in charge of R. G. Start, chairman of the Trust. The superintendent’s report was presented by Mrs. L. M. Smith and showed that there had been 998 patients admitted during the yepr, including 213 births, with a total of 12,979 patient days recorded and 380 surgical operations of major and minor classification. There'were 1416 indigent patient days chargeable to Ingersoll. The average cost per patient day wa* $4.26 as compared with $4.39 in 1945. The year 1946 had been the most active year in the history of Alex­ andra Hospital. Special mention was made of the co-operation by the medical staff, the nurses and other employees, pressed to The interior of the Ingersoll Public Library presents a very attractive appearance since its recent renovat­ ing, the walls done in a soft .shade of green and the floors refinished. As a further measure to ensure quiet in the building, the entrance stairs and those parts of the floor most used have been covered with rubber floor covering. The library is increasingly becom­ ing the centre of various community cultural activities, throughout the week. evenings from 7 to 8 o’clock, Miss Jean Beattie conducts the Children's Art Class, which is open to all child­ ren interested in arts and crafts. On Wednesday evening at 7.30 o’clock, the Adult Art Class of which Mr. Harry Whitwell is president, meets. These meetings have had an added interest for the past four weeks, in the presence of Mr. James Kemp of London, who gives instruction and advice to the members. Some artists of real merit are being developed at these classes. The Book Club meets on the First Thursday of each month at 8.30 p.m. This (Thursday) evening, <Mrs. J. C. Herbert will review Stuart Cloete’s new book, “Against These Three.” Perhaps the Children's Story Hour, conducted by Miss 'Mollie Heenan, on Saturday morning, is the most popu­ lar and generally appreciated activ­ ity of all. When the Tribune reporter dropped in last Saturday morning, thirty-two children were grouped around Miss Heenan, eagerly listen­ ing to the story she was reading. The prevalence of colds had consid­ erably reduced the attendance to one-half of what it usually is. Devel­ oping in these young children a taste for good reading, is highly commend­ able. Altogether the Public Library, under the capable Librarian, Miss Betty Crawford, and her assistant Miss Heenan, is serving a highly useful purpose in the community. TUBERCULOSIS MASS SURVEY IN INGERSOLL Appreciation was ex- prea.„u - the Women’s Auxiliary and other societies of the town who had helped during the year and to the Lions Club for their activity in sponsoring the proposed new hospi­ tal and to the citizens generally who supported the project in the vote. The financial report was presented by Treasurer R. W. Green and show­ ed total earnings of $49,978 and operating expenses of $54,243. After providing for doubtful accounts, an operating deficit of $5,332.00 was shown and this is.compared with a deficit in 1945 of $7,133. Trustee Allan R. Horton presented a report on the progress of the new hospital project. Early in 1946 the County Council made a grant of $35,000. The Lions Club organized and co-operated with a special com­ mittee of the Trust which made a complete study of the situation in­ terviewing the Municipal Board and kept the special publicity committee informed fully prior to the vote of the ratepayers. Special thanks were extended to the members of the pub­ licity committee and the Chamber of Commerce for their co-operation and assistance in getting a good propor­ tion of the voters out to support the by-law. Sponsors of advertising were also extended the thanks( of the Trust. The fund is now assured of $220,000 and an active campaign is now in progress for raising an addi­ tional $150,000.Mr. L. G. Bridgman of London, has been appointed an architect and it is hoped that the preliminary sur­ vey will soon be completed. Plans will then be started with the hope that by the first of next year It will be possible to call for tenders and commence building opertions in 1948.By resolution Messrs. McConnack, Barker and Wesbrook of Woodstock, were re-appointed auditors. The Trust by resolution extended thanks to all who had .assisted the hospital in any way during 1946. The election of Trustees resulted as follows: Mrs. F. H. Adams, Mrs. James Baxter, W. E. Cragg, T. N. Dunn. R. W. Green, C. J. Hines, A. R. Horton, A. G. Murray, J. W. Nichols, R. G. Start, with these will be Mayor C. XV. Riley, a representa­ tive of the Medical Staff and Reeve Calder, representing Oxford County. In preparation for the mass X-ray survey, the County Health Unit is planning to do a patch test on ail elementary school children. This test consists only in applying a piece of adhesive on which is a little test substance to a well cleaned area of skin. The patch is removed in two days and the test read an another two days. A positive reaction indi­ cates previous contact with tuber­ culosis. These reactors will be X-rayed in the mass survey, but the remaining public and preschool chil­ dren will not be included in the survey. There will be no consent cards for this test but any parents not desir­ ing it done on their children will please notify the teacher by letter at once. Otherwise the test will be done on all children. There is definitely no danger involved in the test and we trust that all parents will co-operate to make the mass survey as complete as possible. The students in Ingersoll schools will be done on the day on February 17th. LOYAL LIVE WIRES HELD INTERESTING MEETING A very successful banquet was held in the Sunday School room of First Baptist Church, on Tuesday evening, when 27 teen-age boys of the congregation were guests of the Baptist Men’s Brotherhood, and had the privilege of hearing a fine ad­ dress delivered by Rev. Frank Patch, pastor of Wentworth Baptist Church. Hamilton. Mr. Patch gave a stirring talk which was enjoyed by old and young alike, choosing his theme from the message of St. Paul to Timothy: “Fight the Good Fight.” His re­ marks, which were interspersed with humour, were both inspiring and in­ structive.The pastor of the church, Rev. R. Murray Simmons, also delivered one of his fine talks on youth, which was greatly appreciated. The president of the Brotherhood, Mr. Gordon Edwards, presided, call­ ing on Mr. Dane Learn to introduce the guest speaker, and Mr. William Dowds, who expressed the thanks of the gathering.

Looking Back— In the — Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario 30 YEARS AGO Thursday,, February 1st, 1917 PERSONALS THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6th, 1947 Eggs For Britain Britain is said to be Canada’s best customer. The simplest ethics of good business require that the wishes of the customer should be considered. What is said to be the world's largest retail business was founded on that principle—the cus­ tomer is always right. . Every wise vendor will see that his customer gets what he wants, when he wants it and as he wants it. The British Food Ministry has indicated there is a good market in Britain for Canadian eggs. Huge numbers of Canadian eggs have been ship­ ped overseas in recent years, the demand is likely to continue indefinitely. Every section of Canada where egg production is practicable has an oppor­ tunity in this respect. And it is a situation in which the women of the country can assist. With­ out them it will fail. Fewer eggs are required for export during the summer months, when the British domestic pro- ■duction is heavy. But during the winter, an al­ most unlimited supply can be used, as, for various reasons, egg preserving is not practicable in Britain. Canadians, on the whole, are fortunately situa­ ted in that respect, as the majority of our houses have suitable storage facilities; so that without inconvenience, adequate requirements for the winter months can be preserved. Therefore, it behooves every Canadian woman who can do so, to assist in developing and retain­ ing this valuable market for some of the products of her country, by packing eggs during the season of surplus production, thereby making available during the winter, eggs for which Canada will be well paid, for the Englishman dearly loves an “egg for his tea.” We cannot afford to neglect such a promising business opportunity. Mrs. R. M. Morrow, her daughter, Miss Hattie and son, Frank, are spending the winter months in Florida. G. C. Coleridge of Detroit and Mrs. J. B. Col­ eridge and son Jim of Woodstock, spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. John Coleridge, Duke street Mrs. George H. Mason will receive for the first time since her marriage on Tuesday, February 6th and afterwards the first Tuesday of each month. The regular weekly meeting of the A.Y.P.A. of St. James’ Church, was well attended and a splen­ did paper was given by Miss Cadey. Rev. R. J. M. Perkins gave an address which was helpful and interesting. Mjss Slater rendered a very enjoyable solo. The president C. W. Riley, Jr., was in the chair. The death took place on Monday afternoon of Robert C. Marshall, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. William McKay, Noxon street, following an illness of ten days. Born in Ireland, Mr. Marshall came to^3anada when a young man and was a suc­ cessful former in West Oxford and West Zorra ■ He is survived by ten daughters and three sons.’ The death of Walter Patterson occurred at the Alexandra Hospital, early Tuesday morning, after an illness of many weeks. Born in Zorra Township, he was for some years a successful farmer in North Oxford, afterwards coming to d^ersoll where he conducted an implement businesss up to the time of his illness. He is survived by his widow and three children, also his father and brothers. Referee—R. Fewster. Bonspiel next Friday night..

These are worthy objects, and they lead one to do some thinking. In each case, money is requested, but actually money alone, is of little use. The starvation pangs of China cannot be assuaged by all the gold and silver in the world; nor can members of the Legion find much pleasure in dollar bills; unless they can be exchanged for food and building materials* The future peace of the world is said to depend upon conditions in China. No semblance of stabil­ ity can be expected in a country, ravaged by war, pestilence and famine. The inhabitants will grasp a straw offered by anyone, they will become vic­ tims of propagandists of every sort of ism, unless they are rescued from their present plight. More and more it is apparent that the world’s great need is not more money, but more goods. A dollar given to the Aid to China Fund will be of slight assistance if it will buy only one loaf of bread. The more loaves of bread that dollar wiil buy—the more useful it becomes. There is a limit to the world’s jackpot But there is. no limit to its productive capacity. For the sake of the starving people of China— for th,e sake of the veterans und all humanity— ourselves included, let us support our contribu­ tions, by working for the three p’s—production, prosperity und peace—They are inseparable.

Soil Conservation The problem of soil and moisture conservation requires constant attention. No farmer, whether his specialty is dairying, stock-raising or giain- growing, can afford to neglect it for a single season. In order to farm economically, it is neces­ sary to keep anleye on the profit and loss account of other thing* besides dollars and cents. When the soil derives benefit from only one- sixth of the rainfall, it is time to investigate the reason. Experts estimate that five-sixths of the rain water flows away, and like a thief, carries with it, top soil of tremendous value, to replace which, the owner pays good money for fertilizers. A more economical and altogether satisfactory method would be the planting of more trees, whose roots would retain the moisture, releasing it gradually, when required. A great deal of reforestry has been done, both by organizations and individual land owners. Per­ haps it is the efforts of the latter that are most valuable on the whole, and are most needed still. Unfortunately, tree-planting must be in the spring, at a time when farmers are extra busy. Some arrangement might be made whereby group* of school children could help in this respect. They have already done a great deal of fine work in planting school and municipal wood lots. But they might also commercialize their efforts by planting for private land owners. It would give practical experience in their agricultural course, and assist their community. Legitimate business would not suffer, for the field is unsuited to that The Provincial Forestry Service requests every­ one planning reforestry this yVar to send in their orders for young trees early, in order to avoid disappointment Miss Pauline Groves was hostess to the member!} of the Junior Music Club at her home on Canter­ bury street on Wednesday evening, at which there was a good attendance.

Page 6 THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, FEB. 6, 1947OUR GOOD NEIGHBORS— by — R. J. Deachman CHAPTER I It wn only a tig iOg egbia, but n served as an eating place anddance hall; and in those day*. French Pete waa reputed the beat eooh tn the North country. There W M • aavory odor of cooking fromthe kitchen, and a scrape of fid­dles from the far end by the door, Where th* voyageurs were dancing the Northern minuet while half adoaen throaty voices bawled songs of the trail. The woman in the corner, shewho sat with her back to them all. never once looked around. Shehad opened her heavy fur coat but the close lynx cap was still low down over brow and hair. O’Hara,who had been watching her curi­ ously, made out nothing but theeurre of her cheek; and by that he knew she was young. He knew,too, that she tried to eat. and failed; she thrust aside her cup of tea, and her hands clasped tight In her lap. Details like these could notescape Sergeant O'Hara of the Mounted, one of the keenest man.hunters who ever took the trail. •Tho best man I’ve got!** the chief had said of him, and meant it. Some individuals are born 'man­ hunters. O’Hara was one. Therewas in his makeup the element of recklessness, and the keen, swift,relentless instinct that holds its alm despite all befogging circum­ stance. He missed little even inthis long smoky room. His eyes went back now to thewoman opposite. He could not even glimpse her profile, but therewas something about her that bid for attention and made him in­ stinctively aware that things had happened since last he looked in her direction. Her attitude wasunchanged, the untasted tea still stood before her, but he knew thatshe was weeping silently and bit­ terly! The shouts of the dancers rosein odd confusion, a gale of wind blew the door open, and the smokylamps flared. The woman started and stared over her shoulder with wide frightened eyes, and Sergeant fast. He waa summoned; it waa duty to obey instantly, and—he was glad to go.

He flung away rarette, set his teeth hard. walked at such a pace that was grinningwith the sest of cold and exertion when he saluted the chief. Thelatter, who sat before a littered desk, looked up and nodded."Got a case for you, O’Hara. Looks like a double murder and,unfortunately, the trail is five days old — or more.” Aa he spoke. Inspector Mac­donald glanced at some notes be­ fore him and then went on, takinghis time to consult them and get his points carefully aligned. ”Inthe firat place Johnson bad the job but he's in the infirmary now.

The nurse persuaded the Cree tohelp her take care of him; when ha had recovered partially she had had to send for more food and medicine. The Cree added that Nicky Creuse Just had found outthat his sister waa nurse for Ghar- ian, and swore to kill him.“The account of those threats made Johnson turn aside and ac­ company the Cree; he had it in mind to get the girl away, if pos­ sible, and let the Indian do thoremainder of the nursing. Tho Cree declared that Nicky still wasat Churchill, and. aa far as wo can find out, that was the fact.** Macdonald pau se d, glancingdown again at his notes before he went on. "Johnson says that hoand the Cree mushed ahead fairly fast. It began to snow but there was no wind to cause drifting. They came through a bit of wood, spruce and balsam mostly — actalike a screen, you know — and found the open space about a hundred yards from Gharlan'scabin. Johnson says here: ‘Ground rolling, a rise, snow piled Uli it The woman started and stared over her shoulder with wide fright­ ened eyes. Mich. O’Hara of the Mounted eaught his breath involuntarily.Never had he seen a woman's face like hers before! BeautyT A poor word. Perhaps she had little claim to It as classic standards go, yet in her face, her eyes, there lurkedsomething deeper than beauty, something that stirred, made un­ easy, and threatened a man’s soul. _ O'Hara glimpsed only the coun- I tenance before she turned; glimp­ sed the fathomless eyes, the white oval of face, the wide tremulousmouth. He thrust aside his own cup. The hand which drew a lightedmatch to his cigarette performed that service automatically, un-watchcd. His glance did not lower. Second sight, instinct, the terrible,penetrating analysis of his official self, had him in their grip! That woman— • A voice spoke suddenly at his elbow. “The.chief wants you atonce. Sergeant!’* The summons! O’Hara knew what it meant; none better. He rose to follow on the heels of the messnger. As he buttoned hismackinaw his eyes did not waver from a chill, almost threateningscrutiny of the soft gray lynx cap opposite. That was all he saw, for the head beneath it was bowed. Ho flung the door open and strbde out into the bitter cold.Some unanalyzed instin c t had stayed the natural zest of the born manhunter. Something had passed between them in that one brief look which had thrown a shieldbetween her apparent sorrow and his own urge toward merciless in­ quisition. He could not force even bis searching gaze upon her. He had seen In her eyes a terrifledappeal for mercy such as one glimpses in the eyes of a huntedanimal, at bay and lost. And her face? Ho tried to thrust it out of bls mind. He never had let awoman turn him from his course. This one would not; rather shemight point an object for the at­ tention of the Mounties, he re­ flected -grimly. Such wom enbrought trouble with them like an •ura. The night was full of stars, the Bold white Northern stars. A bit­ ing wind drove in his face; hecould hear it singing in the wires over his head. Before him lightsgleamed in the windows Of the bar­ racks, behind him he still heard the scrape of fiddles. He walked make out how it happened. 'Any­ way, he’s out of it and I sent foryou. I’ll give you the facta as I gleaned them from his report; you can go over and question him yourself, later. .He's a good'man: I can’t see why he wanted to makesuch a damn fool of himself!" O'Hara sm iled involuntarily."Accidents will happen, sir." "Humph!" The so und wasscornful. Macdonald had small use for accidental stupidity. He laid the flat of his hand on John­son’s written report and swung around, his keen eyes on the ser­geant’s face. "Did you happen to know Gharlan, the fellow who got shot up by Nicky Creuse a month or so ago?" O'Hara nodded. "Gayle wastalking about that incident the other night,” he res pon ded. "Something about Nicky’s sister, wasn't it? I heard he didn’t want a worthless brute like Gharian fora brother-in-law. Was that it,sir?” X "The point is.” replica Mac­ donald dryly, "Gharlan was mar­ ried.” O’Hara suppressed an exclama­ tion of surprise and fell suddenlyinto an attitude of keen attention. Gayle had said something about Gharlan being a prince of cads! "Ninon Creuse bad been a good girl; she was a trained nurse andnever spared herself. She helped a lot of folks out in the wildest places. But Gharlan pursued her—fascinated her, perhaps. Be­ sides. she didn't know he wasmarried, at first. I should say she must have been pretty, in a soft girlish way, though I never saw her alive." The inspector perceived his sub­ ordinate’s involuntary start and smiled grimly. "She and Gharian both are deadnow; that’s tlfe crux of it. John­ son was out on the Hudson Bay trail, way up. There’d been astorm two days before and the snow was crusted. He came upona Cree Indian with a dog team, going to Gharlan's with a load of food and medicine. It seems thatNinon Ceruse, as a trained nurse, went straight there — a month before, you understand — to takecare of Gharian after her brother wounded him. Strange to say,Gharlan behaved well and refused to make any charge whateveragainst young Creuse. The Cree told Johnson that the wounded hid the cabin. Cree ahead with team of malamntes. The leader lifted his nose and howled. Theyswerved to one side, all of ’em acting queer. I came up and stumbled over • odles on the ice, a fresh sp.. .ing of snow, like a blanket, covering them.” Macdonald looked up sharply at O’Hara. "The Cree and Johnsonscraped off the snow and found Gharian and the nurse. Both hadbeen shot There was a pistol in Gharlan’s hand. Looks like a sui­cide pact, eh?" "Rather. The man,, bad as he was. was In love with a good' girl,I take it — and he already was married. But you called it , adouble mA-der, sir?” "That’/what, O’Hara, no doubt about it! It would be easy, too,if we didn’t know for certain that Nicky Creuse was at Churchillabout the time of the killing; that anyway he never would have killedhis sister intentionally. The Cree also has a first class alibi. Of course, there’s a bare chance thatNicky got there somehow, and that the girl was shot accidentallywhen she tried to save Gharian. There was a third person there, however, either at the tithe orjust afterwards, before snow fell over the frozen ice crust. Johnsonfound confusing-tracks, tried to follow them and lost the trail at the edge of a frozen creek. Thefugitive took to the ice. There were triple tracks from the cabinand a single track-Sack to it, zig­ zagging across the trail of Gharianand the girl. "The pistol In Gharlan's hand was a forty-five, he and the girl were killed with bullets from a twenty-five! It was murder. There may have been — probably was —a fight; two bullets had been fired from Gharlan's forty-five, but he was a dead shot and It seems un­likely he would have failed to bring down his assailant. "His previous wound was only half healed; the Cree doesn't think ho was fit to travel, yet he yards from the cabin — and they and tho nurse were a hundred went there afoot. It looks to moas if Nicky Creuse must have sent someone to bring his slater home, that there was an altercationwhen Gharian followed and triedto' bring her back, and, in tho quarrel, both were shot. There was a letter in the girl's pocket." (To be continued) ZENDA Mrs. M.

Jf USSEBP In one respect we are singularly fortunate . Canadians have the best neighbors of any country in the world. Despite their faults, and some­ times they are glaring, I wouldn’t trade the Americans, as neighbors, for any other people on earth. I write with restraint for deep down in my heart I hold by inheritance, a strong attachment for the Scots— in their own opinion, and in mine, they are God’s chosen people. Still the Americans are peculiar. Once an editor in the near South with whom I discussed national rela­ tions and other problems, told me that the Canadians were a more homogeneous people than the Amer­ icans. In startled wonder I asked him why. "It ja.” said he, “quite obvious. What do the people down here know about people in Kansas, Minnesota, Colorado or Oregon? In your coun­ try the wheat crop in the West is a vital factor in the prosperity of the East but what relationship exists between North Cafblina and North Dakota- Your foreign trade, per capita, is far larger than ours. It is hard to make world citizens out of Americans, you are naturally that way. We simply do not give a hoot for the outside world.” I was shocked but isn't it true? Though to complete the picture, in the general interest of Canada I would like to bring the Maritime Provinces closer to us. Sometimes I feel that Prince Edward Island looks cold standing out there in the Gulf all by herself, I would like to put an arm around her—bring her closer to the rest of us. Pardon this momen­ tary digression—the intention was good even if it did disrupt the se­ quence. To the American people the world has given a magnificent opportunity. The United States as it stands is the greatest creditor nation of the world. It has the power to exert a tremendous creative influence in hu­ man affairs. Her destiny is that of a great trading nation. Will she ac­ cept that role? If, in this,’the United States fails,, I fear that the fate that once more befell her will come again and that with renewed violence. It would be tragic if the nation which should be the most beloved should become the most disliked. Equally tragic is it, if out of perver­ sity, the United States continues to plan for new depressions with all their cursed tendency to pull others down. What the world needs now is a nation which is not afraid to ex­ change goods with other countries. The world is full of nations trying to expand their export trade—there is only one nation in the world which is in a position to buy and buy freely—that is the United States. The free entry of goods from other countries would reduce her own cost of production, it would expand the real earnings of the American people, lift her standard of living— act as a febrifuge in the heated veins of labor. True the United States would have to loan capital abroad but if reasonable care is ex­ ercised and if the world can be made free from wars for the next fifty years, as I hope it can, and the in­ terest rate is a reasonable one and the Americans are prepared to take goods in exchange for goods sent out and as interest on loans made, the result would be a rapid rebuild­ ing of the shattered nations, a gen­ eral increase in the standards of living.• • * But isn’t there one fly in the oint­ ment? Wouldn’t there be a danger to the United States in providing Russia for instance, with additional capital for the expansion of Russian industry and the improvement of the standard of living of Russian people. I doubt it, Russia is desperately poor, her standard of living incred­ ibly low. Why to-day does France stand fumbling on the verge of com­ munism, production low, the people hungry. Russia is a communistic nation and communism has an attraction for those who have aban­ doned hope. If Russia could raise her standard of living, if she could trade freely with the rest of the world then communism would change, it would become, in the long run, something of which the rest of the world need not be afraid. If Russian people could have closer contacts with the rest of the world much of her fear would disappear. If the Russians could see the type of products which we can produce in Canada and in the United States and which Britain and other nations can produce they would realize that after all capitalists were not the imps of iniquity they have been taught to believe, but only honest people trying to do a great deal more than they have done before and do it in a better way. • • * What are the chances of this? I confess at the moment they do not appear very clear. It may take an­ other depression to make the United States see that point of view, poss­ ibly two, of the soul seering kind, but sooner or later the American people moving forward with big hearts end generoua mind* will seethat their future lie* with theperity of the world and that onenation no matter how great, how powerful and how magificent it be, cannot live with happiness and contentment in a world which is tragic with misery, a world for which America could do so much, if it only would.

Paint and Furniture Stere & SONS WE, THE PEOPLE, SPEAK Confronted with an exceptionally heavy list of tasks, the newly opened session of Canada’s Parliament may bring surprising and dramatic de­ velopments following in the wake of the Speech from the Throne, tab­ ling of numerous governmental re­ ports and other not unexpected ac­ tivities, with national and interna­ tional issues providing fuel for fiery debates and countless questions. An impartial observer can adjudge from the initial reactions of mem­ bers, fresh from their own constitu­ encies and imbued with the passion­ ate as well as irritable feelings of the people whom they represent, that these representatives are in no mood to waste any time in this new 1947 gathering, nor are they in any frame of mind to curb their feelings on both national and international prob­ lems. They want to bring before public notice jn the House of Com­ mons their views on decontrol, immi­ gration, housing, social and econ­ omic reforms, labor codes, tax re­ ductions, budgetary provisions, na­ tional flag, civil liberties, and num­ erous other matters. They want to air “foreign” affairs, especially since Canada’s demand to offer argument on the German peace treaty had Been •refused by the Big Four Deputy For­ eign Ministers and it is understood here that wider participation by the Dominions in such treaty discMBon was favoured by this country. In short, even at this stage, it is evident that the newly opened ses­ sion will be one of the most active and dramatic gatherings seen in Ot­ tawa in a long time and it will be productive of surprises. At least, this is hinted backstage on Parliament Hill on account of the mood of many members in regard to certain prob­ lems or issues. NEW OFFERThe Federal Government's new offer of 1206,158,000 to the provin­ ces is not merely important because it involves an increase of a substan­ tial sort over the >181,000,000 pro­ posal in the budget or >68,000,000 more than the 1945 proposal but it is considered significant in Ottawa that Finance Minister Abbott empha­ sized “that’s our limit and that’s as far as the Dominion can reasonably and responsibly go”, though he did not claim that the Federal Govern­ ment had closed the door entirely on a new Dominion-Provincvial Confer­ ence, even if he could see “little or no good purpose” in calling such a gathering now. TIME ELEMENT The vital factor of time in arrang­ ing national defence measures in this atomic age was put quite bluntly by an American expert during an ad­ dress in Ottawa where his talk caused much comment. “In former times,” said Col. Leo A. Codd, ex­ ecutive vicepresident of the United States Army Ordinance Association,” nations had months, sometimes even a year or more in which to prepare after war had been declared. That is not the case to-day. No longer is it a question of months, weeks oi even days, but rather of hours and of minutes in the atomic era.” TO MEET DEMAND FOR FALL AND WINTER EGGS It may not he generally realized but Prime Minister Mackenzie King is now the dean of the House of Commons since he has been an M.P. for approximately thirty years. He was first elected iri* North Waterloo in 1908 and he represented this dis­ trict until 1911. Likewise, he has been the M.P. for Prince, P.E.I.. 1919-21; North York, 1921-25; Prince Albert, 1926-45, and Glen­ garry from 1945 up to the present time. I PRE-WAR AND POST-WAR Canada’s immediate poultry pro­ duction program depends on produ- ing eggs when the buyer wants them. This means production of increased quantities of eggs in the early fall and winter months—a stepping for­ ward of production rather than in­ creasing the total amount Canadian poultry producers responded to the demand for more eggs during the war years. Now they are advised to advance the peak season of egg prdouction by purchasing their chicks a month to two months earlier. Britain needs early fall and win­ ter eggs. By the producers co-oper­ ating with their hatcheries in order­ ing chicks for 1947 for delivery in February and March, more eggs in the fall will be made available for export. Boats will be available in the fall for shipping eggs to Britain. So as not to miss the boat, orders for chicks should be placed imme­ diately. Producers who do so will get the benefit of next fall’s higher market prices. Mrs. Percy Gill and Mrs. FredWilson spent Friday in Woodstock,and attended the WiM.S. Convention.Mr. and Mr*.

EVERYONE SHOPS AT WHITE’S Grandmother What Brings Quick Relief Dr. o£ Linseed 35£ Family size 3 “While the pre-war situation was unsatisfactory, in my opinion, the post-war position would, in the ab­ sence of new agreement become equally unsatisfactory, and, if times should get bad, might become worse,” said Canada’s Minister of Finance, Hon. Douglas Abbott, in referring to the taxation agreement being sought by the Federal Govern­ ment with the various Provincial Governments so that, it is interpre­ ted by observers in Ottawa, he has made it clear that* the central auth­ orities are now more anxious than ever to avoid the so-called “hopeless confusion” which existed, in the opinion of this spokesman for these central authorities, in the taxation fields prior to the war. In other words, this suggests that the Federal Government believes that agreement with the Provincial Governments would be essential now in this post-war period to avoid overlapping, uncertainty and the’ multiplicity of income as well as corporation taxes at a time when it is most advisable to curb such ill- effects oh the finacial front where many difficulties prior to the war had been blamed on these causes. With this objective in mind and en­ couraged by the progress made, a determined drive is expected here to reach agreement wiht the provinces even if these may meet setbacks from time to time. Indeed, somehow there seems to be a feeling in Ottawa that most of the difficulties and de­ lays were inevitable due to the wide differences in conditions, interests ! and outlooks of the various provin­ ces”, using again the words of a spokesman here. AIR ACCIDENTS There is no doubt that the reader has read headlines or heard news reports on the radio lately about “air accidents” and these have been “played up” considerably so that this publicity has created an impressive picture in the minds of the people across this country. However, at a meeting in this capital of the Can­ adian Flying Clubs Association, a famous racing and stunt flying pilot, Major A. S. S. “Speed” Chandler of Chicago, said that he did not con­ sider this a serious situation, though more publicity and prominence was given to this type of tragedy than to railway or other transportation mishaps. He had come to the meet­ ing on crutches since he had suffered a broken leg when he fell while alighting from a taxi in Chicago, though during his lengthy and hectic MS THE TRAPPER—a Conservationist Th. trapper, through the systen of registered trapline*, become* in .fleet a wild fur farmer and THE CARLING BREWERIES LIMITEDtfATtRLOO ANO WALKENVIUX, ONTARIO YOURS TO ENJOYYOURS TO PROTECT rFOX" by W.

The feeling of action Is strong In this picture even though It was madewhen motion had entirely ceased. The exposure used to make It, 1/50 of ■ aecond with an aperture of f/11, la roughly equivalent to the exposure of most box cameras. ONE of our friends, who’s anengineer, figured out the otherday that a sled, coasting down thehill behind our barn, attained aspeed of close to 60 miles per hour. He admitted that this was pure theory, since he had not allowed for friction. Even so, his figures provedinteresting. They point up the prob­lems a anapshooter lets himself infor when he tries to catch the kids coasting by at the foot of the bill A picture of this sort requires afast lens and a fast shutter. If you’refacing the sled head-on and shootwhen it's about 25 feet away, you'll need a shutter speed of at least 1/400 of a second. If you shoot froman angle, or when the sled is closer to you than 25 feet, you'll need an even faster shutter speed.So unless you’ve a cameraequipped for such speeds, you eitherhave to “pan” your shot or try to get it somewhere else. “Panning”— in which the camera I* swung with the action so as always to keep the subject centered in the viewfinder —was explained here some weeksago. Another trick, and a simplerone, is to get your coasting picturesnear the top of the hill. Here you tan shoot just as the sled com­ mences to pick up speed—cuttingyour shutter speed to 1/200 or evento 1/100, If head-on. Even so, a 1/100 speed may bebeyond the range of your camera.In that case, try a picture like to­ day’s. Although the sled has stoppedin this shot, the feeling of action remains. J And such a/picture easily can bemade with s box camera. If you’reready for It—camera loaded and set to shoot Quick wit on your parthelps to compensate for the lack ofa fast shutter. And helps get pic­ tures hard to beat with any type of equipment. John van Guilder.
