TURKEY BANQUET TENDERED CHOIR St. Patrick’s Tea Was Great Success MISSIONARY FROM BOLIVIA, SPEAKER AT BAPTIST CHURCH Isobel Hutson cy”, and laid the blame for misjudged youth at the home, which had chang­ ed from a place of spiritual guidance to one of pleasure and money-loving indulgence. He questioned the patri­ otism of some of the women who had sacrificed their desire for home life because of an opportunity to earn money. The youth of to-day needs companionship and leadership and that has become the responsibility of the community. The home has failed to provide the proper environment and the church to a great extent has also.failed to give successful guid­ ance to our youth. The school teachers were lauded for their efforts, not only in academic training but in vocational and re­ ligious guidance. A vote of thanks was expressed by International Counsellor Cliff Hines to the speaker. Membership prizes were presented by the visiting officers to President Al. Murray. Secretary’ Vic.

According to the preliminary esti­ mate, the value of the record to­ bacco crop of 1946 is placed at $47,730,01)0 and shows a 56 per cent increase over the value of the 1945 crop which was estimated at $30,620,000. The increase in value, says the report, is due to a substan­ tial increase in the quantity’ of the tobacco harvested as well as to an advance of about 2% cents per pound. The 1946 crop, including all types, is currently estimated at 134,667,000 pounds, or 46-per cent more than the 92,345,000 pound crop of 1945, and is the largest ever harvested in Canada.

Those who become Christians suffer many persecutions. The young people are eager to take part in the religious exercises and do it equally as well as Canadians. The Baptists have established ten churches in Bolivia which has a pop­ ulation of 3500,000. I SPRING IS HERE, BUT ... Although winter is supposed to be , off the calendar now, it would be just , as well for the bards to delay their 1 songs about the beautiful spring time. For as this paper goes to press, • the surrounding district is experien­ cing the worst storm of the year With a bitter north wind, accom­ panied by snow, the storm has raged since Tuesday morning. Country roads are badly blocked and train services disrupted. So far, hydro service has been maintained, but by the time this ink is dry, the situation, might have altered. Farmers who have made their way into town, declare the irony of the situation to be that, while the snow is piled on the roads, fields, where it would be of inestimable value, are practically bare. It seems that a pressing problem for agriculturists is to find some means of keeping the snow where it would do most good. Many cars are reported snowed-in on the highway between Ingersoll and London, abandoned by, their drivers, till the snow melts, which it is likely to do rapidly, when the sun shines again. The River Thames began its spring rampage early in the week,flooding the adjoining flats and iso­ lating residents on lower McKean-1 street, where a physician was forced to use a rowboat in order to reach a patient. Pemberton street between Carnegie and Charles street, is un­ der three feet of water at the time of writing. Whether the waters will rise or recede will depend upon the temperature. A sudden rise in that respect would create a serious situa­ tion. So although th cold wind is none too pleasant, let it be remem­ bered that a balmy breeze might be accompanied by danger at the pres­ ent time.

THURSDAY, MARCH 27, 1947 All Would Benefit By Larger School Area The subject of establishing a Larger High Schoo) Area in the district surrounding Ingersoll, ia being seriously considered. At the meeting held here last week, the idea was almost wholly approved by those present, although a few ex­ pressed fear that the interests of the smaller muni­ cipalities might be sacrificed for those of the larger. It should be just the‘reverse, for on the whole, the former would gain most. As conditions stand now, the large places have very good edu­ cational facilities. It is in the smaller ones that a low attendance of students, as well as a low assessment, makes it difficult to provide anything approaching the advantages enjoyed by students in the larger centres. Many students f rom rural areas now attend urban schools while their municipalities pay foi the upkeep of their own schools. That is uneconomical. By pooling resources, a building could be erected to accommodate all the students in the area, and all would enjoy the facilities of an up-to-date school. It would be only reasonable that such an insti­ tution should be located in the centre paying most towards its upkeep, and where rfie majority of the students reside. One thing is certain—Ingersoll will have a new Collegiate Institute in the not far distant future. If the neighboring municipalities wish to share the benefits, this would appear to be their oppor­ tunity. It is natural that such a suggestion might at first meet with disapproval from some quarters as the idea is a new one and causes a certain strain on sentiment, for the school house holds a large place in the affections of every community. But education has gone through many changes down through the ages, and the larger school area seems to be associated with the age which we are now approaching. An age that will be full of interest and satisfactory living if the opportun­ ities it offers are accepted. Chamber of Commerce Serves Community Well The Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce has made a wise choice in the selection of its new president, Robert D. Carr, who is well known in local bus­ iness circles. This is an important office for which Mr. Carr’s business experience should prove useful in the busy years lying ahead of our town. As successor to J. R. Henley, he inherits a posi­ tion that has been ably filled during the years when the Chamber of Commerce became roused from a long period of inactivity. A Chamber of Commerce is an organization whose roots are set in democracy. It concerns itself with the affairs of the people, for the people and by the people. Its membership should therefore, consist of represent­ atives from all walks of life—men interested in the commerce of the country in the broadest sense. It shdtild foster a community pride that will prove an incentive to all workers ftpm execu­ tives to operators, to make their own corner of the world 4 good place in which to live. Recognizing the fact that town planning is closely allied to commercial enterprise, the Inger­ soll Chamber of Commerce has made that one of its main interests. It is a matter that should con­ cern the whole town. Originality and novelty in planning has brought much profitable publicity to some municipalities. Ingersoll offers unique oppor­ tunities in that respect. Therefore the responsi­ bility of town re-planning, as it is in the local case, should not rest on a few. It should be widely and freely discussed, before a decision is reached. By considering a reduction in fees the Cham­ ber of Commerce is acting wisely. It is not in itself a money-making organization, nor should it be an exclusive one. The fees should be reason­ able enough to permit of anyone’s joining and thereby taking an active itnerest in the general welfarc^of the town. Protection Against Floods Needed Along Railway Tracks Floods in the British Isles are the first aftermath of the unusually heavy snowfall over most of the Northern hemisphere during the past winter. Other European/ countries are expecting serious floods also, and are acting accordingly. Ten years ago this Spring Ingersoll was visited by the worst flood in its history. It will not soon be forgotten, for the sight of advancing'waters, with little pro­tection against thAn, was a fearsome one indeed. The experiencejwas a blow to the town, with the loss of three dives and destruction of consid­ erable property, / including the Thames 'street bridge, the loss of which no one regretted, as it had long passed the safe stage. There is still danger from floods though, and some simple preventive measures applied now might be the means of saving lives and property later on, The river ft far too close to the'C.N.R. station and entrance drive. There is barely sufficient turning space fqr cars at any time. But at week-ends and holidays when the traffic is heavy, it is positively dangerous, and it is to the credit of careful drivers that some of them have not landed in the river before this. A nasty situ- . stlon might develop if the brakes of a car, filled with people, should suddenly refuse to work. While the waters encroach on the north bank of the river, there is land to spare on the south bank, It should not be difficult to cut away some of the latter to allow the water to spread jthere. Then a retaining wall could be built on the north bank to protect both the station and driveway and prevent their caving in unexpectedly, as they might easily do.

McCarty, Toronto; Miss Winnifred at home, and Mr. Charles R. Webb, Hamilton. The funeral was held from St. James’ Anglican Church on Sunday afternoon to the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery with Rev. C. K. Masters, rector of the church, con­ ducting the service. At the regular meeting of the Big Eight Society on Wednesday evening, the members were ad­ dressed by Ex-Mayor J. V. Buchanan.

COLLEGIATE BASKETBALLTEAM ENJOY BANQUET On Wednesday of last week, all the girls of the Collegiate Institute were wishing they were on the school team or at least had tried out for the team, because those who did enjoyed a most delightful banquet in the Home Economics Room complete with speeches, toasts, school yells and a most delicious dinner. This banquet officially concludes basketball for the Ingersoll Colleg­ iate Institute girls this year. XIC Home Economics Class catered for the banquet under Misa Fern Goodi­ son’s supervision. The convener, Agnes Stirling was assisted by Cecelia Gazzolo, Shirley Barnes, Viv­ ian Wisson and Louise Winlaw. Not only did they outdo themselves with the Virginia baked ham, chocolate cake, etc., but they were inspired by basketball’s and school colours, (blue and white), in table decor­ ations. At the head table the toastmis­ tress was Alice Ashman, who very capably handled the program. The opening toast to the King was' fol­ lowed by the singing of "God Save The King.” On the team's behalf, Marjorie Clark presented a pretty corsage to Mrs. Beth Clement, their coach. A clever toast to the school was proposed by Marian Wilson and replied to by Principal Herbert Accordian solos by Iris Miller were enjoyed by all present. The thanks of the team were ex­ pressed by Gloria Arnott to Miss Mary Johnston, Mr. M. Billings, the score keepers, timers and all who so willingly assisted them. Reta Ainos very ably proposed the toast to the team and Jean Barnes, the captain, responded. Miss Sutherland, who with Miss Goodison, arranged the banquet for the girls, spoke briefly. A vote of thanks to Misa Goodison and the IIC girls was expressed by Dorothy Barnes and endorsed by all. Agnes Stirling replied. The most enjoyable evening was brought to a close with school yells led. by Helen Matthews and Dorothy Barnes. kon k tjow HYDRO USERS I ’ • The wintertime power shortage in Southern Ontario has been relieved with the coming of spring and the longer hours of daylight. In the winter months the shorter and darker days create a maximum demand on your Hydro system. Conditions in this winter season are such that Hydro plants are loaded to the point where it becomes necessary to ask for the' co-operation of all Hydro users in saving electricity by every possible voluntary means. Ii.itibe spring ond summer season the urgency for cosu^rvation is not so great as in the fall and winter^^ The voluntary saving of .electricity in Jjomes, offices, theatres, stores, and in industry, greatly relieves this condition, ^ou r response was very helpful. To those wh<f so willingly co-operated during this emergency period, Hydro says, "Thank You.” / In many localities Hydro stations and lines are overloaded because of the delay in obtaining neces­ sary new ^jipinept Therefore, do not waste electricity—Hydro wisely at all times, W- WILLIAM MAHAR IS LAID TO REST The funeral of William Mahar, who died on Monday, March 17th, was held on Thursday from his late residence in Belmont. Mr. Maharwas born «ff**STnicoe but had spent practically all his life farming in the Dereham and South Dorchester areas, retiring in 1941. He was an adherent of Belmont United Church. Surviving are his widow, formerly Annie Smith; three daughters, Mes- dames Charlotte Lewis and Archie (Edna) Hare, both of Aylmer; Mrs. THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION OF ONTARIO Frank Goble, (Rubena), London, and a son, Harold of Ingersoll. The service was conducted by Rev. George Oliver, pastor of Bel­ mont United Church and was largely attended. There were many beauti­ ful floral tributes, indicating the high esteem in which the deceased was held. The pall bearers,were six grandsons: Russell, Harold and El­ mer Lewis, Max Goble, William Hare and Earl Boughner. Flower bearers were: James Jenkins, Sr., Mr. Hamlyn, Norman Porter and James Jenkins, Jr. Interment was in Dorchester Cemetery. It's one thing to call a man down, but quite another matter to keep him there. The captain stood upon the deck.

There ar<$ plenty of eggs on the market in1 spite of commitments to ship large quantities to Britain. In other coun­ tries where eggs have been a stan­ dard main dish, women have found it necessary to do without them, or use a substitute. Hostesses in Capetown, South Africa, have a simple solution. They serve one ostrich egg which provides a good meal for twelve or more people. The people of Cape­ town have only recently taken to eating ostrich eggs, but they have long been a favourite with African Bushmen and Hottentots ... If this should become a profitable commer­ cial venture, the ostrich will be trans­ ferred from the millinery store to the grocery!

Metropolitan recently asked Marquis James, noted historianand a Metropolitan policyholder, to write the Company's Annual Report to Policy- holders for 1946. Mr. James was unusually well equipped to do this because he had just finished, at the request of the Company, a three-year study of Metropolitan's operations from the time it was founded. The results ofthis study have been published by the Viking Press and The MacMillan Com­ pany of Canada under the title of “’TheMetropolitan Life, A Study in Business Growth," on sale at any bookstore.

ECKER HOME OFFICE: NEW YORK CANADIAN HEAD OFFICE: OTTAWA SOME FACTS ABOUT METROPOLITAN’S OPERATIONS IN CANADA Thue highlights of the Company's business tn the Dominion during 1946 will be of particular interut to Metropolitan's Canadian policyholders and their beneficiaries. Life Insurance in Force During the year, 250,000 Canadians bought new policies with Metropolitan, totalling $217,564,850. At the end of 1946, a total of $1,937,785,490 Metro­ politan protection was owned in Canada by 2.300,000 policyholders. Of this amount, 58% is owned by Ordinary policyholders, 32% by Industrial policy- holders and 10% by Group policyholders. Total Investments in Canada The Company's total investments in Canada amounted to $448,686,839 at the end of 1946, Of this amount, 54% is in Dominion of Canada Bonds. Other investments are provincial and municipal bonds; securities of railways, industrial plants and public utilities; and mortgages. Metropolitan is also participating in the housing programme of the Life insurance companies in Canada.

Deachman Have you read “The World of To-day’’? It is a school text book in the provinces of Alberta and Saskat­ chewan. It is a good book for its purpose. The object is to make good little socialists out of the boys and girls who read it, yet there is little direct mention of socialism in its 400 pages. It simply points to things evil and implies gently, oh, so gently that these things will perish, evil will pass away, under socialism! I read now from the text: "Only a small proportion of the world’s population exists in com­ fort and plenty. These facts, per­ haps, are the key to any study of the world as it is today.’” Then at the bottom of the samepage: “Let us imagine a man who lives in a large house in Winnipeg with his wife and three children. He is engaged in the grain bds- ness; he buys and sells hard wheat, the most valuable of all foods.” KINTOREOn Monday night the KintoreYoung Peoples’ Union held a com­munity box social.

No mention is made of the fact 'that this man bought his grain in the open market in Winnipeg, sold it in the markets of the world against the stout competition of the leading wheat producing nations. The government now makes a long term contract for the sale of wheat to the United Kingdom at SlJggb This morning’s news quotes the mar­ ket price for shipment to other coun­ tries at $2.72. That grain man may have been worth all he cost. In his day the farmers got the world price for shipment to other countries at $2.72. That grain man may have been worth all he cost. In his day tho farmers got the world price for their wheat, they are not getting it now.

An oil forYOUR motor identical to ihat specified by "Coming across the mountain ranges of British Columbia one sees hundreds of acres of dead timber, killed by fire or insects, yet highly useful as fuel, while on the prarie coal must be imported long distances to combat sub-zero temperatures.” To get this wood, a road and railway siding would have to be built. It involves a long railway haul. It is much wiser to burn coal, more econom­ ical, more comfortable. I trust none at the confiding teachers who have swallowed socialism will go into the business of shipping fire wood from British Columbia to Saskatchewan because a social­ ist author of a socialist book thought that thereby they would be bringing heaven nearer home. Canadian farmers have been selling wheat for domestic purposes at low prices. They have been selling it in Britain below the world level. Do the joint authors of this book want the farmers to give their surplus, if they have any, to China, or India? Are they in touch with a “sugar- daddy who will buy it and pay for it.

In 1932 Canada produced 480,000,000 bushels of wheat, yet millions of people in China never see wheat bread. Too true! There are 800,000,000 people in India and China. They increase at the rate of 5,000,000 a year. Every three years they add 15,000,000 to present pop­ ulation—2,000,000' *more than the present population of Canada, added every three years to these two coun­ tries.

I w'onder if the authors would agree with it if the people who did it were paid for it? Well, I turn to page 132 of “The World of Today" and this is what I find. The authors are describing what happened in the United States under the "New Deal”: “Farmers are invited to restrict their acreage of cotton, ..wheat, corn and other products. In compensation, they would receive a bonus for each acre withdrawn from production.” Now what is the difference be­ tween restricting the acreage of crops and letting them rot. Econom­ ically speaking the end product is the same. Under the ‘New Deal’ the farmers were paid to stop growing crops, to stop raising pigs. The next sentence of “The World of Today” lets the cat out of the bag. “Under this scheme the farmers buy­ ing power increased 8%.” The gov­ ernment, in that case, paid for the waste of the farmers. Corporations made profits. This is kept pretty closely before the em­ bryo socialists. “The members of the Supreme Court”, said Mr, Doo- ley, “road the morning papers.” This does nbt mean that the socialists study the facts. 1913 was the year before the opening of World War 1, August 1939 saw the outbreak of World War II. In 1913 manufactured products stood at 64.8%, basis 1926 equals 100. In August 1939 theystood at 72.6%, an increase of 11.2%. It was not a phenomenal advance in view of all the circum­ stances. There are two sides to life’s prob­ lems. Capital fills a necessary func­ tion, capitalists are like other people, no better, no worse. Youth must not start life filled full of hate given to it in the name pf education. Great God, isn’t there enough hate in the world without teaching it in the schools, paying for it out of taxes?

A long time ago a duel was fought between Alexander Shot and John S. Nott. Nott was shot and Shot was not In this case it is bet­ ter to be Shot than Nott. There was a rumor that Nott was not shot, but Shot was certain that he shot Nott, which proves either that the shot shot at Nott was not shot, or that Nott was shot notwithstanding. So that either the shot Shot shot shot Nott or the first report was wrong, and the shot Nott shot shot Shot. In other words, Shott was shot and Nott was not. All the same I think that the shot Shot shot shot not Shot but Nott.
