CARD OF T The family of t Shepherd ^ish to friends a nurses and Hospital, the kindne them durin and in thei ment NKS , late Normannd to their I ura, doctors, the Alexandra appreciation for sympathy shown Shepherd’s illness, t sad: bercave- It is an oft-proven statement that in life a man cannot remain station­ ary—he must march forward or slip behind. This saying is particularly true for the farmer. For unless he makes use of modernized equipment, his farm will not be aftle to stand up against the competition frofri neighbouring ‘go-ahead’ firms. I I Machinerjl for increased product­ ion, material for new buildings andextensions, mew Unproved imple­ ments and ciuinmAt, new livestock to build up ®e hdhl, adequate elec­ trical wiring,Imodjrn heating and ■water system* motors, pumps, milk­ ing machines-l-thjfc may mean the difference betweeuf success and fail­ ure.If such impi&vAents are on your farm they will tnAe money for you.It is true, of AA e, that they will also cost moneyjtftd that is why the first step for a U-ahead’ farmer Is often a visit to Wne Bank of Mon­ treal. A talk to Mr. Yule, manager of the local Bank of Montreal, will reveal how money wisely borrowed and invested can change an ordinary farm Into a profitable farm. Mr. Yule is well acquainted with the farmer’s needs and problems. He is anxious, to help you solve these problems. He will be glad to see you, and your visit will be a step in the right direction.

Following the formal meeting re­ freshments were served and a social time enjoyed, when several visitors gave short addresses. The next meeting will be Friend­ ship Night, when all offices will be filled by officers of various chapters in the district I Parole System Ot Province Explained By Chief Parole Officer There was a large attendance of members and guests at the regular meeting of the Ingersoll Lions Club on Monday evening at St. Charles Coffee Shop. President A. G. Murray was in charge of the meeting and en­ couraging reports were given by pro­ ject chairmen. The speaker of the evening was George Dix, Chief Parole Officer of Toronto, who gave a comprehensive , account of the parole system as it is | operated in Ontario. The history of reformatories was told in a manner that was readily understood. Follow­ ing the establishment of these insti­ tutions, it became apparent that there was a responsibility to the Stata. to return the inmate to a proper sphere upon their release. What was knBwn as conditionalrelease originate^ in Australia which allowed prisoner? with favorable rec­ ords to a form of freedom away from the institution on farms. This was followed by a complete pardon. The system was later adopted in Ire­ land, the United States and Canada. The Province of Ontario has °P®r’ ated under a parole system for 30 vears which is considered to be a model for other provinces. The speaker explained the intri­ cacies of the system of determinate and indeterminate sentences. In order for the parole board to grant release to a prisoner he must have work to go to after his determinate term, must report periodically and remain at a given place of residence. New developments are gradually making the system of more benefit to the society of the country. Last year of 247 young men who were paroled, only 17 «»ve trouble and were retunfcd to institutions. It is found that first offenders will often tell the cause of their appre­ hension and greatly assist in preven­ tive measures being put into force, tn the cities the cause of delinquents was stated to be broken homes, where the father leaves and the mother has to work to raise a family and boys have no fatherly advise. The lads seek other boys in similar circumstances and gather in gangs umd then older men with criminaltendencies persuade the boys to break the law and then take the rap as first offenders. A large percentage of these boys left school before the legal age, from 75 to 78 per cent never passed the Sth grade m public schools, and many were known to be truants. , The fact that there has been in­ sufficient places of recreation was stated by Mr. Dix to he a factor inI the downfall of a great many of | these first offenders. He paid tribute to the police and magistrates for I their co-operation with the paroleI board. Only of the older men who were released last year brokeI their parole, while of prisoners under | 19 years of age. only were re- I turned to institutions. II The habitual drunk was said to be the worst repeater at being impris- oned. The term of sentnee is usually only three months or less and near the cities they usually are not out long before being picked up and re­ sentenced. Mr. Dix said he hoped for some remedy to this situation when maybe alcoholics would be given an indeterminate sentence and result in a better chance of recovery from their alcoholism. In closing his address the speaker advised that Service Club members take nn interest in boys and girls who would likely become truants and try to give them some recreational responsibility, which would take their minds off ill-intent and keep them from becoming first offenders as law breakers. Great dividends can accrue from this work and the boys and girls will develop a sense of fair play. There is a challenge to all to provide recreational facilities to not just a selected few but to all the youth of the municipality. The speaker was introduced by Lion Willard Parkhill and an express­ ion of appreciation given by Lion W. Newell. During the dinner hour, Master Jimmie Miller rendered a number of comet solos with Jack Morgan at the piano which were greatlyI enjoyed.

Mother’s Day Services_ In Local Churches The observance of Mothers’ Day last Sunday was fittingly marked at the. church services.

W iJde >n(J p g Z Z u r .aSSigted h°S U M at Letter From Texas Describes Disaster Mists Hilda Simister is in receipt of a letter from a friend in Galveston, eleven miles distant from Texas City, scene of the recent disaster. It read*: “We have had somewhat of a ter­ rible nightmare, and are now realiz­ ing the reality of it all. Our hospi­ tal, (The John Seeley Memorial Hos­ pital), was all organized according to Army routine and discipline. I had never seen anything like it. Dr. Blocker and Miss Peterson, both army people, really did a marvellous job. Nurses on the reserve list, came on duty right away and their swing into action was wonderful. They said that medicines and procedures were all so new to them, not having nur­ sed lately. Drugs they had never used, also penicillin, just flowed like water all over the place. Of course there was a terrific amount of suffer­ ing, but as everyone remarked, there was no screaming, no hysteria, and very little confusion. The dead sil­ ence was uncanny, and almost hurt. The scattered families and those searching for the missing, were tragic. They are still finding parts of bodies in the ruins. Our student nurses were wonderful—all so will­ ing to do what they were told, and wanting to do so much more. Our operating rooms were on full steam, twenty-four hours a day for four days, and this was only one hospital! Ambulances were coming in for days. Now we are getting down to regu­ lar routine again, but Texas City is just a shambles. Our dog sensed dis­ aster before we did. She was not enthusiastic in her reception when I got home that morning, after night duty. She followed me around with her tail between her legs and looked so dejected, while" I was picking flow­ ers in the garden. Then she began running back and forth, between me and the back door, so as I saw what looked like a very black cloud, I went indoors. At 9.12 the first ex­ plosion came, and Cookie, (the dog> groaned and moaned. A second ex­ plosion and she actually howled. I turned on the radio and it was half an hour before “an explosion some­ where”, was .reported. In about-15 minutes it was located and all the traffic was rerouted down our street from Broadway, leaving it for am­ bulances. The sireps were sounding incessantly for 48 hours. It has been a terrible experience." MANY ATTEND ANNUAL HOSPITAL DAY TEA Despite the inclemency of the ’ weather, there was a splendid attend­ ance at the Annual Hospital Day Tea, held on Tuesday afternoon in St. James’ Parish Hall, under the auspices of the Women’s Auxiliary' to the Alexandra Hospital Trust. Mrs. James Baxter, president of the Auxiliary, and Mrs. R. L. Smith. Hospital Superintendent, welcomed the guests in the assembly room, where masses of spring blossoms were effectively used as decoration. Miss E. A. Seldon and Mrs. F. G. Rich invited the guests to the tea room, where Mesdames R. A. Wil­ liams, P. L. Smith. N. J. Daniel and Ernest MacDonald poured tea and coffee, at a table covered with a filet lace cloth and aglow with a centre­ piece of yellow daffodils, narcissi, jonquils and forsythia, flanked by yellow and green tapers. This arrangement was the subject of many complimentary remarks by those present. Tea room convener. Mrs. W. R. Veale. was assisted by Mesdames F. S. Newman. T. N. Dunn. P. E. Tuck and P. M. Dewan. Assisting In serv­ ing the guests were: Mesdames J. M. Wilson. J. H. Nancekivell, Ewan Wilson. C. C. Cornish, M. E. Jarrett. F. G. Jones, F. Jackson and T. Jack- son. Mesdames F. H. Adams and J. R.

W. Staples at the piano; and John Cook, accompanied by Miss Harrison. Altogether the tea was a great success and those responsible for it are to be congratulated.

THURSDAY, MAY 15th, 1947 Big Eight Society Has Fine Reqord of Service For many years one group in particular has been connected with the twenty-fourth of May celebrations in Ingersoll, the Big Eight Society having long taken the, lead in that respect. ' Organized in 1916 with the object of raising funds to send boxes of comforts to Ingersoll men serving overseas during World War No. 1, the Big Eight, as it is popularly called, was formed by a affiliation of the various fraternal societies in town. The new organization being composed of two representatives from each of the following: Sons of England, Independent Order of Odd Fel­ lows, Canadian Order of Foresters, Knights of Columbus, Ancient Order of United Workman, the Loyal Orange Lodge, Independent Order of Foresters and Ancient Oilier of Foresters. Some of those lodges have since ceased to function. Field days and sports events, as well as private contributions, supplied most of the funds in those days. A fine work was accomplished in keeping in touch with the service man, assisting their families at home, and in arranging for their reception on their return. Following the war, it was realized that such a well-run organization could fill a place in the peacetime activities of the town, for at that time it was the only men’s service club here. It has continued to function successfully ever since. Some of the projects either assisted or wholly undertaken by the Society include: Drinking foun­ tains. creation of Memorial Park from the bed of an unused millpond; grandstand at Victoria Park; new floor in the town hall; assistance to public health nurse, Christmas Cheer for shut-ins and needy families, hospital care for needy cases, as fwell as many other worthy undertakings. The biggest undertaking of the Society was the Old Boys’ Reunion of 1924, which was entirely planned and conducted by the members. The suc­ cess of the undertaking and the many expressions of appreciation from those attending, indicated the capable manner in which the affair was managed. Eventually, the lodge1, representatives withdrew as such, from the organization, and membership became open to anyone desiring to join. S. A. Gibson was the first president; George P. Bums, the secretary and M. J. Comiskey, treasurer. Other presidents were William Crellin and the late J. Ferris David. Mr. Gibson is again president, hav­ ing served in that office for twenty-five years al­ together. His name has thus become inseparably connected with the Big Eight. Squire Moyer is the present secretary, and T. Naftolin, the treasurer. One of the highlights of the societies’ activities . for some years past, has been the twenty-fourth of May celebration beginning with a grand costume ■ parade to Memorial Park where a full morning’s entertainment of games and races is provided free to all children. Last year over seven hundred child­ ren took part. Plans are going ahead for this year’s celebration which promises to be better than ever. Ingersoll has reason to be grateful to the Big Eight Society. Mr. Justus Miller, son of Mr. and Mrs. Austin Miller, Ingersoll, who for some time has been edi­ tor of the Canadian Countryman, has been appoint­ ed Assistant Commissioner of Agriculture for On­ tario. The Ingersoll citizens wish Mr. Miller all kinds of success. A quiet wedding took place at Woodstock on Saturday, April 28th, at the Chalmer’s Church manse, when Rev. D, Wallace united in marriage Miss Nora McMillan, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John McMillan, Ingersoll, and James Collens of Woodstock. The death occurred in West Oxford on Tuesday of Edward Phillips. Mr. Phillips had been ailing < for the^past two years but only confined to his bed for one'week and his death came as a great shock to his many friends. He was in his 47th year and had lived all his life in West Oxford, Besides his wife he is survived by three boys, Howard, Rus­ sell and Wilfred. , Mr. Thos. Winders received official notice from Ottawa, Thursday, May 3rd, stating that*Wr- son, Pte. T. C. Winders had been wounded in the ankle on April 26th and admitted to the Norfolk War Hospital, Norwich, England. It will be remem­ bered that Pte. Winders was wounded in Febru­ ary, 1916, and spent six months in hospital there. Pte. Winders has many friends in Ingersoll who will hope for his speedy recovery.

Fireworks Return For The Twenty-Fourth Celebration Old and young alike experience a thrill on seeing shop windows.once more filled with fireworks. It is a sight recalling pleasant memories for the old­ sters, with anticipation of fun for youngsters. For some years they were off the market, supplanted by fireworks of a wholly uppleasant nature, and it is good to see a return of the type connected with the gjjy and carefree abandon of a good time for all. A display of fireworks appeals to a somewhat simple—an almost primitive, strain in people—but quite harmless if properly used. The ohs, and ahs of exclamation as the graceful flashes of coloured light ascend, spiral in mid-air and then float to earth, indicate a sense of wonder that is refresh­ ing in the midst of so much sophistication and tak- ing-for-grantcd as is to be found now. No nature is spoiled by retaining a touch of the primitive, provided there is no crudity as well. Fireworks seem inseparably connected with thetwenty-fourth of/ May. ‘The day begins with them and ends with tpem, and the time in between is usually’filled with plenty of fun too. Few present day celebrants h^ve known it as the Queen); Birth- /day, but they know it as a jolly day, marking the beginning of summer’s festivities—a Queen of Days, recalling a Noble Queen. 11 YEARS AGO Thursday, May 14th, 1936 PERSONALS Miss Helen B, Wilson of Toronto, spent the week-end v^ith her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ewart G.

The Call of Home is a Strong One Following the First War, there was a steady flow of travellers from America to Europe, espec­ ially during the summer months. As well as usual tourists, there were those who were returning to their native land, eager to see kith and kin after the trials and separation of the war years. ‘ In many cases at that time, return to the home­ land meant returning to familiar scenes and modes of living, there were large areas of Europe un­ touched by the ravages of war then. Conditions are changed now although the urge to return home i« unchanged. With half of Europe a shambles; with gaping scars where once were treasured spots, heartaches and dismay are apt to meet ’returning wanderers, as they view the scenes ■ of their childhood. However, they are prepared for it They know that food will be scarce; accom­ modation inadequate and uncomfortable But they long to be there again; tA pay ^nbute to those who have struggled so galla'ntly and to renew The home of Mrs. Harry Morrow, Earl street, was the scene of a May tea under the auspices of the Evening Guild of St. James’ Anglican Church..

DeachmanT-----------------------------------------Speaking on a national broadcast on April 2nd, Mr. M. J. Coldwell made this statement: Exploitation under capitalism, takes many forms—all of them ugly. For examle, a recent article in the Toronto Star Weekly des­ cribed a successful invention of a new machine'for the production of ramie fibre cheaply. The author stated that Egytian mummies were wrapped in white cloth woven of ramie which has lasted four thousand years, and then quoted a textile manufacturer who remarked with a smile: “The trouble with ramie is that it’s too good. We’ll have to mix it with cotton so that at least every other thread .will wear out.” “That, of course, illustrates comletely private enterprise”, said Mr. Coldwell, “production for profit instead of socially controll­ ed and planned enterprise for use.” Consider for a moment the facte in regard to ramie on which Mr. Coldwell speaks so fluently. It reminds me of the razor blade the technocrats were going to make, it would last a lifetime, the Pogue Carburettor that was to give us a hundred miles to the gallon of gas, the brick yard which was to be built, some place or other, probably at Est- evan, to make bricks for the whole Dominion—do it with only a hand­ ful of men. These things come and go like ships in the night. THE MIRACLE PLANT The new mirage of Socialism is' ramie. It’s a fibre plant known for the last four or five thousand years. It grows in semitropical countries, in Indo-China, the Phillipines, and to some extent in South America. It has been tried in the United States with, I understand, indifferent re­ sults. It grows from three to eight feet high and produces about four tons of moist stems per acre. The problems is to remove the gum, which is an inherent part of the pro­ equal value at less cost. Industry ishighly competitive. If one manufac­turer didn’t take it, another would. -The only thing that might hold It upwould be the protests of the woolgrowers in Canada or the cottongrowers in the United States just as we shut out “oleo” because the far­ mers don’t want it and farmers have votes.KING USED RAMIE Mr. Coldwell pointe out tfat it was used as winding sheets for Egyptian King’s. There’s a reason. Kings, who could afford to build pyramids in which their bodies might find a resting place, could afford to spend, not money, nor gold, nor goods, but the lives of their slaves in making durable cloth in which they could be put to rest. Slaves cost little, pro­ duction of ramie involved a great deal of work. We have no slaves ex­ cept the machines and there are times when tasks arise too difficult for the machines to perform. Ramie fabrics will come if this is econom­ ically possible but we must remember that the tasks of modern industry is not in providing luxuries for kings, important as that may be, but to fur­ nish products for shop girls at prices within their capacity to buy. “Exploitation, under capitalism’’, says Mr. Coldwell takes many forms —all of them ugly.” I wonder what Mr. Coldwell means by that state­ ment? Are all these modern conven­ iences by which we are surrounded exhibits of ugliness. Would Mr. Cold­ well consider modern medical organ­ ization and even the Red Cross, both outgrowths of capitalism, as only more ugliness. What strange things are uttered, when men speak polit­ ically. There arc moments when Mr. Cold­ well annoys me. He makes excellent speeches. He has an attractive per­ sonality, a good radio voice. Why does he drop from Olympus to tell us a story about ramie? I wish he would leave trifles to lesser men, stick to the larger topics, strike out and reach for the stars. duct Today this work of stripping, removing the gutn and drying is done largely by ha®, the net product represents about 2%% of the green plant. So far no machine has been invented which does the work effect­ ively. There are other difficulties, the fibres are of varying lengths, this adds to the costs of spinning. We should never despair. Some man, some day, may do it.- Mr. Cold­ well may have his fingfcr on him now. When it comes industry will grab it if, it provides a product of CONSUMER BRANCH W.P.T.B.

JAMFS’ EVENING GUILD MET TUESDAY CHAOTIC CONDITIONS “The position in Europe today, two years after the war, is still chaotic,” said Hon. J. A. Glen, speaking on an amendment to the Canada Immigra­ tion Act. “Travel is difficult, and, in many cases, impossible. Frontier difficulties are extremely great, and the immigration authorities have found great difficulty in re-establish­ ing their inspections! facilities on the continent.” These words, spoken by an official spokesman for the Canadian govern­ ment, explain the current circum­ stances in few words but these are emphatically the correct picture of the situation. Furthermore, in regard to refugees concerning whom there has been so much talk throughout this country, it is officially reported that prior to the war, the interg-overnmental com­ mittee on refugees under its mandate dealt with persons who fled from their country of residence or citizen­ ship before the second world war for reasons of race, religion, nationality or political oppression. “During the second world war the mandate was extended to include additional dis­ placed persons,” said Mr. Glen, per­ sons who, as a result of the action of i ____ Ingersoll Turf ClubSPRING^ hor se-sRow S a t u r d a y , VICTORIA BARK Ingersojl Show Horses A E very Description Clydesdales, Pezcheroiis, Belgian; Jp Carriage and Roadsters Saddle, Hunters, Ponies DON'T MISS IT ! y 3 1 st Meet Your Friends at Ingersoll Horse Show on Saturday, May 31st Mrs. Max Sumner.

Interment was at the Dorchester Union Ceme­ the Nazi or Fascist regimes, were deported from or obliged to leave their country or nationality or for­ mer residence for forced labour or other causes; persons who have re­ sided in Germany or Austria, being of Jewish origin, or foreigners or stateless persons, victims of Nazi per­ secution. The mandate docs not in­ clude nationals of enemy countries, volkdeutsche, prisoners of war in allied hands, war criminals, traitors, persons who have assisted enemy for­ ces, and those who fled into Germany to avoid falling into allied'hands.” Since there has been considerable comment about Canada’s attitude toward immigrants and displaced persons, this official explanation is regarded as significant to avoid mis­ understanding of the whole problem facing this country at this time. WHISPERS OF DISCONTENT For sortie time now whispers have been heard backstage in Ottawa about charges that French-speaking Canadians have not only received an insufficient number of appointments to the Civil Service of Canada but that not enough such persons have occupied positions in the higher levels of this Civil Service, such as Deputy Ministers or similar posts. In fact, it is known that the Prime Minster has received a communication from an M.P. pertaining to such a charge. However, it is now coming into the open more and more with the dis­ closure that .the Quebec Legislature has indicated that it “deplores” the fact that French-Canadians arc not getting a fair deal in this respect. It is alleged that, with one-third of the population being French-Can­ adian. the number of appointments, especially in the higher posts of the Civil Service is not proportionally in tune. Then again, it is understood in Ottawa that the whole problem is “under serious consideration.” tery.

MORE DIVORCES With divorces involving a steadily rising number of applications to the committee of the Senate, reaching almost record figures this session, there is evidence that this breaking up of marirages in Canada is multi­ plying rather than disappearing in this post-war period, and instead of making divorces easier, there is a growing view that it might be a good point to tighten the bonds of marri­ age. prised by the aftermaths of the abol­ ition of the Excess Profits Taxes, JUST "FRONTS” Testifying before the Committee on Public Accounts of the House of Commons, Dr. E. H. Colman, Deputy Custodian of Enemy Property in the Secretary of State Department, de­ clared that he had been shown evi­ dence of “chains of companies” operating in such a way that “it was almost impossible to tell who was the ultimate holders of assets.” This evidence was shown in London and Washington, though Dr. Cole­ man said the same thing prevails in regard to assets of aliens held in Canada with assets of “belligerent enemies”, held in Canada amount­ ing to about $20,000,000 and others, including neutrals and "prescribed or occupied countries” having been valued at $300,000,000 or more. PERMANENT RESIDENTS The Minister of Labor, Hon. Hum­ phrey Mitchell, in giving figures on immigrants coming into Canada for work on farms and in sugar beet growing areas, has emphasized that these are coming in as permanent residents. He also indicated that, whereas a number of members of Parliament have made speeches urg­ ing immigration, yet, when the Gov­ ernment sets immigration in motion”, there are always some bbjections taken,” with Mr, Mitchell adding that “discretion and judgment” will be exercised in admitting immigrants into this country. ST. PAUL’S LADIES AID HELD BUSINESS MEETING The St. Paul’s Ladies Aid held a business meeting on Tuesday after­ noon. with the president. Mrs. R. Hutt in charge, who called the meet­ ing to order.

SANDICK Employee—“Did you hear—-the boss’s mind is gone completely?” Other employee—“I’m not sur­ prised—he’s been giving me a piece of it every day for ten years.” IMPORTANT IMPLICATIONS It is expected in usually well-in­ formed quarters that the abolition of the Excess Profits Tax at the end of the present calendar year may bring in its wake an increased production in Canada so that then will start a de­ cline of prices from the present higher and higher rise in prices which enter the everyday cost of living. This important interpretation is given to counteract the claim that the budget recently announced did not endeavour to help business in general since the socalled "invisible” or "hidden” taxes, high taxes of war­ time, have been continued, including taxes on jewellery, furs, leather goods, cosmetics, tobacco, etc., with these allegedy hurting business in these lines and keeping up the everyday costs which enter the nor­ mal lives of Canadians. However, as already mentioned, it is believed that it will be possible after the turn of 1947 and the Excess Profits Taxes disappear to produce more and to bring about a gradual decline of prices. At least, this is heard to be the interpretation or implication of the change and experts hold this opinion in Ottawa about its likely effects on business. Indeed, experts claim that the man-in-the-street across Canada may be pleasantly sur­ UNIVERSITY PROFESSORftro ADDRESS KIWIANIS llofessor H. E. Jenkin of the University of Western Ontario, will be the speaker at this week’s meet- Jng of th/ Ingersoll Kiwanis Club and his subject, “Jean Baptiste Up- To-Date”, should be an interesting one. Prof. Jenkin is the head of the University’s Summer School at Trois Pistoles, Quebec, and is well qualified to speak on the subject he has chosen. The meeting will be held this (Thursday) evening at the Coffee Shop at 6.15 o'clock. The finger-tinted and red-lipped blondes stood on the curb looking lor exictement. It came along in the form of a car of vdry ancient vin­ tage. The driver Batterect, proud ofany sort of conveyance in these days. The girls giggled and waved their hands frantically. "Hi there guy. Where did you get the Pierce Arrow?” The driver stopped short and looked the girls over. Then he flicked the ashes from his cigarette disdainfully. "How would you look if the paint were rubbed off? Rather fierce, I guess.” "You used to say that there was something about me you loved.” "Yes, Tom, but that’s all spent now." Friends and neighbours of Mr. Leonard Sandick, to the number of 25, met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alex^Robley, Thames street -•orth, on Tuesday evening and pre­ sented him with gifts in view of his intended departure from Ingersoll to reside in St. Marys. The address was read by I. W. Robbins, while Leon­ ard Minier, a life-long friend of Mr. Fandick, made the presentation, which included a club bag, walking stick and one year’s subscripfion to the Ingersoll Tribune. Mr. Sandick, although completely taken by surprise, thanked his friends for the gifts and for their kindness to him during his thirty- five years of residence in the neigh­ bourhood. The evening was enjoyably spent in card playing, after which refresh­ ments were served by the hostess and her assistants, Mesdames I. W. Rob­ bins, E. S. Allen and Clara Ball of Woodstock. BUTTER PRODUCTION STILL ON INCREASE Butter production in Ontario, des­ pite the back ■•rd weather, has In­ creased rapidly, says C. E. Lackner, Director of the Dairy Branch, On­ tario Departmen" of Agriculture, in his summary for April of the reports of ceamery instructors throughout the Province. “Indications are th?t when official 'figures for the mont*- are released, the increase will be close to 25 per cent above April, 1946”, Mr. Lack­ ner added. Up to the end of the month, the report states, o-erators were In the dark as to what prices would be with the anticipation removal of the but­ terfat subsidy on April 30. The last week of April saw a heavy disappear­ ance of butter, with everyone having couporfs purchasing their quota be­ fore the price increase. Entries in the butter quality com­ petitions sponsored bv the Ontario Creamery Association, siys Mr. Lack­ ver, are running ahead of last year, and it is ‘•xpected that the competi­ tions will start off with a record number of creameries entered Reports indicate the m" r acute shortage of qualified butt > -niters ever experienced has developed in the industry.

Gayle turned his back, a strangetightening in his throat. "It's a darned rotten job to run downa woman anyway," he muttered to himself, going into the outer room to stare out of the window. It grew late now, the wind waa singing overhead as the gale rose,and clouds were piling up in the north."More snow," Gayle prophe­ sied. Then, hearing a soft move­ment in the room, he turned sharply and found the woman standing there, looking gravely at him. “M'sleur Pelice," she said quietly, "I heard what you saidjust now—I couldn’t help it— about Jacques Duval. My patienthere Is halt delirious, m'sleur, has been so ever since he struck his head in a fall. If he accused Duval of—of killing Ninon Creuse and my husband, it Is a mistake.Duval’s innocent. I’ll prove that when the time comes.” " "You're sure, madame?” A thin ptame of smoke ascended. “I swear It. m'sleur, by all I hold most sacred’” Gayle stood looking at her; she lifted fearless eye® to his. “I ksowwhy you came, M’sleur Police," she went on In her low evenvoice. "You came for me.” Gayle nodded. "O’Hara wantsto clear you. He accuses Creuse and this man, Duval. If,you clear the half breed-------” She paled suddenly and her lips shook. "It would mean—itCreuse Is judged guilty--------?" "Death,” said Gayle. A voice from the inner room intercepted. "Have you eaten your supper yet, Gayle? You mustn’t make trouble around here. I’m trouble enough for Mrs. Gharlan," Lauro’s glance went back to theinner room and Gayle saw It. "By Jove,” he thought, "she loves him!" Her voice was calm when she spoke. "Supper's on the table,m’sieur. W ill you please sit down?" Ho obeyed hor awkwardly, forsomething in her look abashed him. She had hot food ami drinkfor him. and served simply. Gayle ate with an uncomfortable feeling that this was all a tragic mockery. Even at that thought he looked up and encountered the woman’sclear gaze. Innocent or not, she did not fear him! Thoroughlypuzzled he busied himself with his supper while she carried anothor cup of tea to O’Hara. "I try to keep you still,” she said to her patient. "Your head troubles you, I know It!” O’Hara nodded; his face waswhite now, the flush of fever bad left It and his eyes were haggard. Ke took the tea from her. "You must sleep, ni'sleur," she urged. "You’ve been in fever— you must sleep!” Something In her voice and hor touch seemed to weave a spell.O’Hara hah drained the cup of tea, and now he sank back. A subtle feeling of drowsiness creptover him, and his head sank back on his pillows. Laure came back to Gayle to pour moro hot tea for him. There was relief In her face. "He’s goingto sleep,” she said In a low voice. Gayle rose, taking the cup from her hands. "I’ll drink It by the days last week at the W.M.S. Con­ference in Aylmer.Mrs. E.

Are.” he geld, and moved to a chair there.A sudden gale had risen. It shook the little cabin and beatupon the door and windows, but not even the noise of the windseemed to rouse O'Hara ones he had fallen asleep. Gayle drank his tea beside the Are with a newsense of physical comfort. It was good to be indoors on such anight. The woman was clearing the table and he watched herstealthily. Her movemonte were slow but wonderfully graceful;* there waa harmony la them like the facile lilt of music. The fl re­ light made glory of her hair. Heseemed to hear again O'Hara's plea for her. "Good Lord, It’s a pity! Love at first eight, of course, and she’s guilty!" ,j| It was morning when O’Hara opened his eyes. A sudden sense of loers assailed him a deathly chllL The Are was out! He start­ ed up, gripping at the side of hiscot with his well hand. Thank God, his head was clear! He rose unsteadily to his feet, stretched Jiimsdf and straightened; he was better. He walked slimy to tn* door and looked Into the outerroom. Gayle still slept before a black hearth. Beyond was a de­serted room with only a spark of fire showing in the stove, there was no sign of a woman’s pres­ence! "Laure!” * Her name rose Involuntarily toO'Hara's lips. There waa no reply. He straightened himself again, forthe first time since his accident be felt physically fit; except for the broken arm he was well. Heglanced again at Gayle, and again looked about the room, scarcelyable to believe that she had gone. "Lou re!" he called entreatingly. Still no answer! A horriblesuspicion tore at his heart. With­ out a thought of Gayle now he rushed to the outside door of the little cabin and tore it open with his It® hand. In the snow out­side lif saw the tracks of her weba, and knew. He steadied himself and swept the vast sheet of snowwith hi* eyes. He could see far off the tops of the blue greenspruces, dwarfed by the snow. There was no living thing In sight. He went outside quickly. Gayle's dogs were in the shelter and yelp­ ed tor food as he approached. Shehad gone along and on foot! Gone? And he was just awake!She had drugged’ them both and mode her escape! A sickening dismay seized h!m.She had done this—like a guilty thing! His feet slipped on theice, he caught at a frozen willow and broke a bit of it In his one useful hand. He tore It to pieceswith hte teeth a^ ho went back to the cabin, Seized Gayle andshook him. The place was freez­ ing and the constable awoke,cufrsing. , "It’s cold as hell!" he growled, “Get up,” O'Hara ordered. “We must have been drugged. She's gone, been gone for hours, andthere's been a light mow since, it’ll be hard to trace her." Gayle leaped up. ‘‘There’ Itold you," he snapped, "she's gqllty!”O'Hara did not answer that; he waa trying to drag on his turn with one hand. Gayle arousedfully now, came to his aid. A« he did so he saw O’Hara's face, andput bls hand on hie shoulder. ' (To be continued) CULLODENMrs. May McEwen is spending afew days with her sister, Mr*. DavidBall of Bracebridge.
