The' list of the charter members was read by District Governor Ever­ ett and those present took a bow. There were about a third of the origlhal number present on this occasion, still active in the club. The speaker, Reid Murdock, gave an address in which |ie stressed the capacity for service to a community as offered to a Lions Club member­ ship. They have the opportunity of assisting those in less fortunate cir­ cumstances. The speaker suggested that dangerous situations exist in the world today as an aftermath to war years. The cause of this was given as the result of irresponsible governments in Europe. The costs of war had been tremendous in money and lives of the nation’s best man­ hood. Mr. Murdock commended the local Lions on undertaking the new hospital project. Lionism teaches its members an obligation to the other fellow: It hurts to hear of people tearing down by conversation or sug­ gestion what OTias taken years of effort to build. -Mistakes are easy to make, but it requires a great deal of work to regain lost ground. The speaker reminded his hearers that we are all part of the Nation and there­ fore should not confine ourselves to just a local situation with its minor problems. The speaker was introduced by Lion Cliff Hines and a vote of thanks was expressed by Lion R. Miller. The thanks of the gathering to the ladies for their splendid banquet was expressed by Lion Wm.

Councillor Wurker reported on in­ vestigation of a complaint that had been presented in the form of a petition from residents of Bell, Mar- garet and Skye streets, regarding conditions at a service station in that vicinity. The complaint was based on dust, noise during the night and the unnecessary idling of motors on large trucks and transports and sounding of horns, which was said to be caus­ ing annoyance seven nights a week. Councillor Wurker had interview­ ed the owner who claimed to know nothing about the complaints until the petition had been presented. He had heard no complaints from the neighbors on any of the points. He intends to have a dust layer usecj as soon as available. He denied any loud talking or swearing. There had been some noise unloading cars, but this has been discontinued, and as for telling a driver to shut off his mqfor he felt that that could not be done. Councillor Wurker felt that the proprietor was doing all in his power ‘to have the situation as complained of remedied. Mayor Riley advised that the police committee keep in touch and adhere to the petitioners' desires an& also give the owner of the premises the opportunity to im­ prove conditions there. A by-law sponsored by Councillors Morrison and Healy, provided for the raising and collection of taxes for 1947. The rate was set at 45 mills on the dollar.

A Provincial Subsidy of one mill and a subsidy for education of $35,000, relieves the taxpaper to that extent.

Mayor Riley re­ minded the council that the Board of Education had reduced the amount of their requirements by $1500. He. pointed out that the increase in their allocation was caused by the fact that two new teachers will be en­ gaged in September of this year for the public schools and one for the Collegiate Institute. The* by-law was passed and num­ bered 1199. A resolution by Councillors Wur­ ker and Horton empowered and in­ structed Clerk Winlaw to engage im­ mediately a stenographer to assist in the clerk’s office at a salary satis­ factory to the Finance Committee.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20th, 1947 How To Work For Better World One does not begin to do his part in working for a better world merely by being born in a better part of this bad world, happy though the the circumstance may be for him. Citizenship in Canada, for instance, does not endow one, auto­ matically, with good citizenship. The conscious, personal acceptance of the re­ sponsibilities of citizenship, and a ceaseless striv­ ing for fitness in discharging them, are the duty of a good citizen; and the first requirement of a good society.. Through the co-operation of good citizens men can create an area of common good. By example and persuasion they should un­ ceasingly seek to extend the area of their com­ mon good until, in time, all men are attracted to it.Only by drawing men to their way of life can good citizens establish it firmly. Co-operation only can build a better world. Compulsion kills co­ operation and creates resistance which destroy ultimately the societies compulsion «nstructe.A basic faith in the principles by which the personalities of individuals grow, u the means of * achieving a sound social structure. F«edom is vital to co-operation in good government. Democ­ racy fosters freedom; but democracy itself can exist only in the co-operation of those who are, fit for it. Democracy is imperfect and impaired to the extent that it is necessary to employ compul­ sion to maintain government. The privileges of power wielded by either a government or privil­ eged citizens, to compel obedience to the will of a majority, are potentially destructive of the democratic rights of those who grant them. The true aim of democratic government is the establishment of laws which will foster the‘per­ sonal growth of individual citizens. All acts of government should be measured by that standard. Good citizens require little law and few overseers. The limit of good government is the least law necessary to create equality of opportunity, to impose equality of responsibility and to safeguard freedom. The way to begin on a better world is to 1 begin on responsible citizenship. An old resident in the person of Mrs. Archibald McGugan of Ingersoll, passed away in the Wood- stock General Hospital last Thursday evening. The deceased was in her 81st year.

DeaehmanI did not write this story- It came to me from a Western fanner, one I have known for years. He is right. No one group can be entrusted with special privileges. If this be done the members of the group will soon define their privilege as rights, the next step will be to in­ terfere with the righto of others. “There is no doubt about it—the lawlessness of the unions and their utter irresponsibility to-day is due to the labor legislation of the last dec­ ade. “Only four years ago the unions in this country were afraid to ask for a closed shop because they thought that no government would tolerate such a thing. To-day they are openly demanding a closed shop and the check-off. They have grown bold because they have learned that governments are afraid to refuse their demands. “Every unjust concession they obtain increases their contempt for the government that grants it. I am not blaming governments for this. Public opinion supported the unions in all their demands, governments merely bow to the popular will. There is an old saying that, “The people lose their freedom under good kings, regain it under bad ones.” The explanation is that if a king is good the people trust him with more power than should be given to any man. Such power once granted is sure to be abused, if not by the good kind, certainly by the bad one. This goes on until conditions become in­ tolerable and the people arise and deprive their ruler of his power to do evil. “How oft the sight of power to do ill deeds makes ill deeds done!” “The struggle for freedom must be fought anew by every generation. Those who lead us in the fight to­ day, become the tyrants of to-mor­ row, and must in their turn be de­ posed. The trade unions did a splen­ did job in breaking the power of the employers. But "today the unions are rich and powerful and they have be­ come the oppressors. Their power will have to be curbed. It is not neces­ sary to destroy them. Their work is not completed, they are still needed Puzzles Found in Rocks That the devil put fossils in the rocks to confuse mankind was a fantastic idea once held but modern science has done much to solve these rock puzzles. We know, after the past century of intensive Re­ search that fossil remains provide us with the means to study many forms of ancient life. Most fossils are the incomplete remains of the hard parts of organisms. Soft parts, except in unusual cases, are not saved. Sometimes it is simply the footprint or trail left by an animal of long ago or the im­ pression of a leaf, preserved for us in rock, that gives the clue to its identity. In the galleries of the Royal Ontario Museum, artists and scientists have combined their talents to help us visualize the lands and waters of the ancient world as they might have pppeared when teeming with living or­ ganisms. In the study cases we may learn that, although Canada is considered a “young” country today, she has a fossil history dating back millions of years. Fossils from Durham, Wiarton, St Marys, Thedford, Ottawa, as well as those from Toronto and many other Ontario sites, are defin­ itely of the “old” world type. Canadians Can Win Canadians are proud of their Barbara Ann Scott, winner of the World Championship Figure Skating Honors at Stockholm, over the week-end. This is fan honor fairly won in stiff competition, before exacting judges. Miss Scott has spent years in acquiring her skill on the ice. It has long been her dream ta_win the world's championship and she set her course in that direction, making all other interests subservient to that, which is the only way to attain success in any sphere. Every child should be encouraged to skate; the grace of movement and co-ordination of the facul­ ties developed thereby being a valuable aid irt character building. In peace, as in/war, Canadians are capable of riding to victory, and there is no reason why any influence, externally or internally, should prevent their doing so. On Monday evening, the masons of Ingersoll had the pleasure of re-opening their hall which for the past two months has been in the hands of carpenters and decorators. Past Masters’ Jewels were presented to the retiring Masters, Wor. Bro. R. B, Hutt of King Hiram Lodge No. 37, and Wor. Bro. H. R. Foster of St. John’s Lodge, No. 68. Two aprons were presented by Wor. Bro. A. Miller on behalf of Rt. Wor. Bro. R. Miller, P.G.J.W. of the Grand Lodge of Canada. One was worn by Wor. Bro. Ichobad Hall, W.M. King Hiram Lodge in 1813. The other vAs worn by his son, Wor. Ero. Elisha Hall, Jr., whff was W.M. in 1856. The gifts ’were received by Wor. Bro. R. J. M. Perkins, on behalf of King Hiram Lodge, and recorded by Bro. Rev. J. Pollock. At the conclusion of refreshments, Rt. Wor. Bro. George Naylor was presented with a handsome loving cup, while a bouquet of roses was given to Mrs. Naylor, 11 YEARS AGO Thursday, February 20th, 1936 PERSONALS Miss Alice Cook of Toronto, spent the week-end with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Cook, Charles street east. Mr. H. S. Bowman of the T.'$L Dunn Hardware, is in Toronto this week attending the Ontario Hardware Convention. Mr. Robert Richardson, Jr., of London, spent a few Mays recently with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Richardson, Charles street west. The businessmen’s volleyball series of 50 games has just been completed and the winners were treated to a turkey dinner at Audrey’s Coffee Shoppe on Monday evening. The two teams were managed or captained by W. R. Marshall and J. A. Turner, with the former winning the final game 2G-21. and will be needed as long as there are employers. “What we need is a labor code which will assure labor its rights but take away its privileges, a code that will assure to every man the right to w-ork for whoever is willing to hire him, the right to quit work if he so desires, the right to bargain collectively or individually as he sees fit, the right to join or to refrain from joining any trade union or association, the right to collect his full wages when earned, without having to pay toll, to anyone, afcainst his will. “The code should assure to the em­ ployer the right to hire and fire according to his needs, to bargin with his employer without government pressure, the right to enter and leave his own premises at will with­ out having to ask permission of any pickets. Employers and employees should be required to live up to their contracts. “Mass picketing should be forbid­ den. Picketing rights should be clear­ ly defined, pickets should be licensed and only enough licensed to do the lawful work of picketing. It should be an offence to join a picket line without a license. Nonstrikers should ’ be protected in their right to work. Municipalities that allow lawlessness in labor disputes should be held re­ sponsible for damages. Public offic­ ials whose duty it is to enforce the law should be held responsible for doing so. “Laws that encourage groups of employers and employees to get to­ gether and fix wages, hours and prices, which will be binding on other employees and employers should be repealed. Departments of Labor should be abolished, and Departments of Industrial Relations should be es­ tablished in their places. Too many labor departments have the idea that it is their duty to fight the battles of the trade unions. “In settling labor disputes there should be less conciliation and more consideration given to the economic factors. The objection to conciliation is that conciliation officers have no way of knowing what the final arbi­ ter, that is, the consumer, the real employer, will pay for the class of labor involved in the dispute, nor how many men he will employ at any given rate. “There is one simple test that should be applied to every clause in any labor code. It is this: “Does this clause deprive any citizen of hi* basic righto?” If it does it should be rejected O R O N T O S U R E. I STA RTED IT T H IS Y E A R !” Stores, Offices Scarce As Hen’s Teeth Trading in commercial real estate—after (two years' unexampled ’turnover—is stalling across Canada for lack of available properties, reports the construction editor of The Financial Post. This is despite the fact that nearly three times as much commercial construction was undertaken in 1946 as in 1945—$93 millions against >35.mil­ lions, including offices, stores, warehouses andhotels. Demand for most types and ages of building at preferred business locations probably wiil continueat an all-time high through most of 1947. But prices appear to have reached somewhere near peak for the immediate postwar period, though no Sharp decline is expected this year. On Sunday afternoon the members of the Hand­ ford Boys’ Class of Trinity United Church listened to an interesting debate, “Resolved that a Repub­ lican Government is Preferable to Constitutional Monarchy.” Those taking part were Clarence Cress, George Lockhart, Lcatham Judd, Robert Carr and Bertram Carr. The Collegiate “At Home” sponsored by the Athletic Society was held in the town hall on Fri­ day evening. Receiving the guests were Principal and Mrs. C. L. Bole, Miss Mary Green, president of the Girls’ Athletic Society and Mr. Alex. Fear- son, president of the Boys’ Athletic Society. Fred­ die Wurkcr and his orchestra provided the music. On Monday evening, Mr. Alex. Yule gave a very enlightening talk on “Taxation", at the meeting of the St. Paul’s Young People’s Society. Miss Irene Cole in charge of the Current Events intro­ duced the speaker and Messrs. Robert Paterson and Allan Gundry expressed the thanks of the society. Declaring that the humanitarian work of the Red Cross is needed “every bit as much in peace as it is in war,’’ His Excellency the Governor-Gen­ eral, the Viscount Alexander of Tunis, recently asked all Canadians to give their generous finan­ cial support to the appeal for $5,000,000 for peacetime work. The campaign opens across Can­ada on March 3.

Middlesex Seed and Export Entries other Write 13, 1947 The annual meeting of the Dere-ham and West Oxford Mutual FireInsuracne Company was held onTuesday at (Mount Elgin. There was a fair attendance of policy-holders, and interest was keen throughout. The auditor’s report for 1946 was presented by Ira M. Harris, and C. S. Williams reviewed the work of the Company in his directors’ report. Both of these reports emphasised the strong financial position of the com­ pany, with a total insurance in force of $4,781,883.51. Considerable discussion w m en­ tered into by those present, on the increasing fire hazards, vis. trucks and tractors on barn floors and electrical wiring that has out-lived its usefulness. The policy-holders were commend­ ed for their loyalty to the company and it was pointed out that only by prompt payment of premiums, exer­ cising care with fire around their buildings and prompt reporting of claims for damage, can the true spirit of mutual fire insurance be maintained.. The retiring directors, Messrs^ Harley McBeth and R. H. Mayberry were re-elected for three year terms. At the directors’ meeting follow­ ing, C. S. Williams was elected pra» side nt; Harley McBeth, vice-presi­ dent; Ira M. Harris and A. D. Robin­ son, auditors; Alex. Amos, secretary.

The nurse, return­ink, signalled for the sergeant to leave. He obeyed, but a glint of sternness narrowed his eyes. John­son could not lie, and he was as clumsy as a walrus on land whenhe attempted evasion. It has begun to snow again, afew big white flakes drove before a rising gale, whirling about likefeathers. O’Hara took no heed of (the m . He was Quartering the ground eagerly, like a bloodhoundon the scent, every nerve in his lithe, active body taut, every in. stinct alert. He was hunting for a clue, and the excitement of the Quest was like the flavor of vint­age wine. He had come a long way by dogteam, left the animals at the Cree hut, and broke trail afoot for hours. He had found the spotwhere Charlan and the girl had fallen, pushed aside a new snowblanket and confirmed Johnson's measurements in the ha rd ice crust below. To follow the trail was more difficult, but he chose* to leave the cabin until last. He traced, with Infinite pains, the third set offootprints, and. trusting again to Johnson’s notes came to the spotbelow the willows where the trail showed a swift slide to the ice of the frozen stream. O’Hara droppedto his knees here, examining every face, almost blinding him. Farther search would be fruitless. It was lucky that he had saved Oharlan'adeserted cabin until the last, for he oould take shelter there nowand pursue investigations at his leisure. Strong as ho was, ho had to battle with the tempest as heturned in the direction of the cabin, guided more by instinctthan by Bight He was in a white world that was turning gray, itwas all gray, and full of fantastic shadows and piercing, terriblecold, when he stumbled up the last drift and saw suddenly athing that brought him to a stand in sheer a m azem ent A lightshone keenly in the gathering gloom, the eternal twilight of the Arctic winter—a light In Gharlan’s deserted cabin! O’Hara stood staring at it Until now—save for one moment when he recalled the sensation of pre­monition—he had believed him­ self alone in the wilderness; yetsomeone must have been before him, and, in the sto rm , found shelter in the house. A thin cur- She started at that, but methie eyes bravely. "I was at my husband's funeral, m’sieur.”“You were aware your husband loved the nurse, and yet you eame—a long way just to attend his funeral, Mrs. GharlanT” Hie tonewas grave now, though It held an edge of disbelief. She raised her head proudly. "You’re wrong, M’sleu Police. I came north to visit—my child’s I grave!" As she spoke she lifted one hand with a poignant gesture' toward the window. Even in the whirl of snow it seemed to O’Harathat he saw that little black cross which he knew was there. But thewoman’s eyes were clear now as she added, coldly, "Of my hue­band—I will not talk of him; ho la dead!" There was a thrill In her voice, passion in it; for an instant she lost her marvelous self control Iand her face quivered in a new, unguarded loveliness. O’Hara, tn-1 defatlgable tracker of the barrens, jman cajled efficient, deadly and1 soulless, experienced the surge of • curiously foreign Impulse to spare her, to shield her even from inch of the ground; something In his predecessor's face had markedthis spot for him. "The key to the mystery’s here,unless old Johnson's made a mis­ take. I don't think he did. Ho!" He stopped, and dug his fingers In the snow, much us a dog digs for a bone. He had found some­ thing, a small object, and, after Infinite effort, he got it up out ofthe ice whole, stared at it dumbly for an instant — an instant thatgave him certainty of one thing. Johnson purposely bad shot up his own arm! O'Hara thrust his find carefully Into an inner pocket and beganto go over the ground inch by inch. He was transformed intothe passionless man of the law. Johnson had failed but O'HaraRegistered a vow that he would not! G rim ly , relentlessly hesearched but he found little more; a broken branch, a crevice in the smooth ice of the creek, wheresomeone might h ave stumbled badly, one place—fifty yards far­ther down—where the same foot, prints had tried to scramble up ahigh bank of snow and slipped back to the level Ice again, and here, where the snow was softer,there were two sets of prints, one of which was set in webs. Of thishe was certain, though Johnson had made no note of it. By this time It was snowing heavily, and thoug h he finally found the spot where the carefulretreat over the ice had become flight, he lost the trail in soft newdrifts. However, it was not diffi­ cult to reconstruct the rest of it.A dog trainimust have been wait­ing somewhere near; and the usual trail for such teams was scarcely twenty yards from the place where he finally lost thetracks. The person, woman or boy, who had made the smaller printsin the snow, must have had help near at hand, help that came overthe Ice of the river. No one but a Cree would have had the hardi­ hood to face alone and afoot the wilderness that lay betweeijthls place and the nearest settlemfiiia "If Nicky Creuse seems to be the only suspect bring him in." "O’Hara sm iled grimly. He turned back now upon his tracks. The wind, that had been risingsteadily for the last hour, was blowing a gale from the north­east, and the snow drove in bls tain was drawn across the window. Through its filmy folds he couldsee a lamp on the table. There isa strange fatality that draws amurderer back to the scene of bis crime, and O’Hara knew it. Some­thing keen and merciless leaped up in his stern eyes, and he felt quickly for the holster of hispistol, loosened it, and stro d e through the driving snow up tothe closed door of the cabin. The howling wind must have made hisfirst summons a puny sound, but he put his shoulder against thedoor and, using his full strength, broke the feeble fastenings. It banged open. At first the sudden rush of light blinded his eyes. Then he saw aface, w h ite and startled, wide eyes, a tremulous mouth. The wo­man he had seen sitting apartfrom the fiddlers at French Pete's! For a long moment they stared thus at each other, and he saw her trembling hands clasped close against her bosom as if to still a tumultuous beating of her heart:but she uttered no sojftad, and. after that first start oMferror, didnot blench. O’Hara tu rned and shut the door, finding a rusty bolt which, after some fumbling, held against the wind. A moment later ho had divested himself of theheavy coat which hid his uniform, shaken off the snow and ice andstood before the primitive stone fireplace than Gharlan had builtwhen the cabin was new. A few logs were b u rn ing there now under a smother of charred pa­pers. The sergeant stooped, picked up the tongs and tried to rescueone half burnt piece, but the flame was too quick for him and licked it up. He straightened up, facing the woman. All this while she had neither moved nor spoken,and her eyes met his steadily. "You've been burning papers hero!" he accused harshly. "You had no right to burn anything in this house!" “She caught her breath and her white face glowed with a suddenflush that made it beautiful. "I 5had a right. M’sieur Police," sher*h p 11 e d in a low voice. "I’m Gharlan’s wife." O’Hara nodd ed. He felt astrange tightening In his throat, but his words were sharp. "Iknow. You look the train north that night —after Charlan and Ninon Creuse were burled at the post.’-’ herself! But the merciless instinct of his kind made him thrust hishand Into his pocket and draw out a blood stained paper. "There’s his last letter to Ninon Creuse, the girl who lost her life because of coming through this frozen wilderness to nurse him inhis fever." Laure Gharlan turned deathly pale. She s carce ly seemed tobreathe, and her profile was like a white cameo against the flame­light on the hearth. For the brief­ est moment she faltered and shrank aw ay from the bloodstained letter. Then she seemed to nerve herself for the ordeal, putout an unsteady hand, took the paper and, moving to the fire, ' averted her face from O’Hara whllophe read IL O'Hara could see only the per­fect'arch of her brow and hair, its rich tints, and the supple graceof her slender figure—the figure of a girl rather than a woman.But he could see that her emotion was shaking her now from head to foot. Involuntarily he turnedaway and glanced^about the room that he had never seen before. It was a bare place, devoid of any womanly touch except thecurtain across the window. An old violin lay on a bench in the cor­ ner, and tlic sergeant suddenlyremembered th at-he had once hoard the dead man play wonder­fully well, with a touch that only Jove of music gives. There were a few worn books, well thumbed,on the shelf, and a woman’s coat and furs lay the heavy chairthat helped barricade the door In. to the only other room, the bed­ room of the cabin. It was closed,and against it were piled all the /miscellaneous articles in place. The door opened toward them andwas bolted, the fastening being reinforced by this strange bar­ricade. O'Hara stared at it in amaze­ ment, That a woman might shrinkfrom the cabin where her mur­ dered husband had spent his hours was not unnatural, but that she should come there alone, in this terrible weather, face thehardships and the horror of it, to barricade one room against her­ self, was a new and strange de.velopmenu He still was staring at it when he heard her voice again,tremulous and sweetA’ (To be continued) Rev.

There is a possibility that dele­ gates will be present from 37 other Teen Town groups in the district from Port Dover, Guelph, Dundas and Ingersoll. Plans for this conference were dis­ cussed at a special meeting of the Mayor, Reeve, Deputy Reeve and Town Clerk recently. The problem facing these young people is getting in touch with these organizations to invite delegates to the conference. There is no central bureau of information where the names of Teen Towns, or similar youth organizations are listed. There are 37 possible Teen Towns in the designated area, and the Paris Teen Town Council plan to contact all local papers, send letters to all the Town Clerks and to communicate with the radio stations in the area. A most interesting program has been planned for the conference. Discussion period will commence in the morning, carry through the afternoon with a banquet in the evening. The day will culmmate at a dance, when delegates will attend the regular Saturday night party sponsored by the Paris Teen Town. Topics for discussion will include, “Teen Towns”, with an exchange of ideas; "Youth’s Place in Community Life”, “Recreation Leadership.” Miss Evelyn Nichol, Teen Town Clerk, will be in charge of the cor­ respondence in this major undertak­ ing.—(From Paris Star.)

O T T A W AWEEK BY WEEK— By M. L. Schwarts — CUTTING COSTS There is one sure thing along Par­ liament Hill right now and that is the certainty that the Government is endeavouring to satisfy the demands of taxpayers for some relief in this session as member after member seems to have come here imbued with the determination that tages must be cut and cut properly. Jn- deed, there are observers who pre­ dict that, while in such matters as social security and others, cuts may be a most difficult task if not in- creased costs being in the making, yet departmental estimates may be reduced by a total amount reaching over nine figures. At least, wherever cuts are possible now, these are being made, and the whole govern­ ment service appears to be involved in order to ’reduce estimates this year. In this capital civil servants are talking about it and some of them are feeling these reductions already even if they discuss it in whispers. In the Department of Veterans’ Affairs for instance, severance no­ tices are said to have been received by employees due to this drive for economy in general and otherwise there are indications that possible tax reductions through lower expen­ ditures are definitely on the way. “I think I should go further and make one fact clear,” said in Par­ liament Rt. Hon. J. L. Ilsley, Min­ ister of Justice, in explaining the Continuation of Transitional Meas­ ures Act” to continue some wartime controls for a limited period only, “that the Government is not asking for any extension whatever of pow­ ers to legislate by orders in council. The extension that is being asked is not of powers but of measures.” In other words, he emphasized strongly that the so-called “omnibus” bill concerning controls of wartime in­ cluding commodity prices, rentals, etc., implied a voluntary action by the Government to give up its order in council authority as exercised over such controls during the war and letting Parliament act instead wherever necessary, with the propos­ al, involving a continuation of such controls for approximately a year. It would run until Dec. 31, 1947, if parliament would meet during Nov­ ember or December, 1947, though if Parliament would not meet then on the 60th«day after Parliament first MR. and MRS. GEO.

Healy, announced that during the absence from duty of Fire Chief Ellis, Captain Homer Fugard will be in charge of the Ing­ ersoll Fire Department. The chief is still off duty o^ing to the injury to his knee, sustained when he fell at the fire on Sunday, Feb. 9th. Assistant Fire Chief Henry Noe and Mrs. Noe are holidaying in Florida until April. meets during 1948 or on the 81stday of March, 1948, whichever dateis the earlier.“When I aay the Government isasking that these measures be con­tinued until that date, I mean con­ tinued subject to the power of re­ vocation at any time, In whole or in part, and I have no doubt that just as orders in council have been re­ scinded from time to time in the past so they will continue to be re­ scinded from time to time as the ne­ cessity for them ceases to exist but the period of the bill is the period I have mentioned," declared Mr. Ilsley. NUMEROUS QUESTIONS So far in this new session, obser­ vers have been struck with one cut­ standing feature and that is the large unusually large, number of questions being asked by members who are seeking information from the Government In fact at limes the number of such questions have surprised even veterans on Parlia­ ment Hill where such veterans are, as a rule, not easily surprised and the questions standing on the order paper are now most impressive. z A NATION'S HEALTH The National Council of Physical Fitness meeting in Ottawa has in­ cluded in its discussions the need for uniform interpretations of the Amateur Athletic Code as well as briefs presented by provincial or­ ganizations, involving amongst others consideration of the problems of in­ dustrial recreation. LABOR TROUBLES AHEAD? There is a feeling in Ottawa that the speeding up of decontrol and rising prices in essential commodi­ ties in 1947 may he followed by a wave of labor demands for. an appro­ priate increase in wages in order to avoid lowering the standard of liv­ ing of workers. With the complete removal of price ceilings on many commodities in everyday use, wages remaining at their present scales could be interpreted as imposing a cut on workers’ returns, and, it is hinted here, this may lead to new’ labor disputes on a widespread scale.
