There are 96 in the first form this year and the crowded condition requires more desks to accommodate the classes. There is an increase of County pupils this year of 24, a total of 79 taking courses here from North and West Oxford, West Zorra, East Nissouri, North Dorchester and Dereham Townships. Seven teachers of the staff took special courses and all members are now fully qualified. The usual grants were asked for the Athletic and Literary Societies, and as physi cal training is now compulsory some equipments was required for general use, but not for the use of teams, who may compete with other schools. It was suggested that a special evening for parents and pupils to attend on Vocational Guidance coidd be arranged and special speakers would give much valuable informa tion on this subject. The building is nice and clean and desks have been sanded in some rooms, but fault was expressed with the litter that has been left on thegrounds following softball g&nes, all manner of cigarette boxes and candy wrappers being dropped and no effort made to clean them up, with the re sult that in front of the Collegiate a very unsatisfactory appearance is created. Two of the Collegiate pupils were successful in winning scholarships, Miss Alice Ashman and Norman Cooper, and congratulations were ex tended to them. It is expected that field day will be held on September 24, with an area field meet here on October 3rd.

Gayfcr drug store have at tracted considerable attention of late. They are of the type that used to distinguish every apothecary’s store in the olden days. About 40 inches tall and in three sections, each section containing liquid of a dif ferent colour, they probably added an attractive touch to what in former days must have been a rather drab Widespread regret was occasioned in town on Tuesday morning when word was received of the sudden death of Cecil L. Bole Monday eve ning at his summer cottage, Birch Point, Balsam Lake. Although in ill-health for the past several years, he had recovered suf- ficently to accompany Mrs. Bole and her mother, Mrs. Faed, to the cottage early in July. The late Mr. Bole was born in Woodville, Ontario. He was a grad uate of the University of Toronto and of Queen’s University. Coming to Ingersoll 19 years ago from Wood stack, he joined the Collegiate In stitute staff as English and History specialist, assuming the principalship in 1930, and retaining that position until compelled to relinquish it four years ago on account of his health. A man of the highest integrity and a keen student, he had a fine influence on the young people under his guidance. He was a member of St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church, serving on the board of managers for some years. He was also a member of the Inger soll Kiwanis Club and the Victoria Club, Woodstock. The funeral was held on Wednes day, with interment at Woodville. The sympathy of a wide circle of friends goes out to Mrs. Bole and Mrs. Faed in their bereavement. On Wednesday afternoon at 1.30 a memorial service was held in-the assembly hall of the Collegiate In stitute, which was attended by the staff and students, as well as by a number of friends of the late Mr. Bole. The service was in charge of R. C. Brogden, assistant principal, who paid tribute to Mr. Bole’s many fine qualities. The psalm, “The Lord is My Shep herd,” was sung by the gathering, after which Rev. George W. Murdoch delivered a thoughtful address, tak ing his theme from the Shepherd Psalm, showing the faith of the shep herd to have been the guiding influ ence in the life just closed. One minute’s silence was observed. Lorna Young played for the singing. MRS. WILLIAM STOAKLEY HOSTESS TOW. A MEETING The opening meeting of Ingersoll Lions Club was held on Monday eve ning with President Joe Churchouse presiding. A very fine attendance of members was on hand to hear Robt. McDougall, of Woodstock, as guest speaker. The speaker chose as his subject, "Murder,” and gave in detail a res ume of three famous Canadian mur ders, He stated that this crime is be coming more fashionable in these days with a list of 16 murder trials scheduled to be tried at the fall assizes in Ontario this year. The first case cited was that of Thomas D’Arcy Magee, a member of Sir John A. MacDonald’s first cabi net, who after a two and a half hour speech in the House of Commons re tired to his room about 2 a.m. and while opening his door was shot in the head. Patrick Whalen was charged with the murder and his trial in Septem ber, 1886, was one of the most fam ous in Canadian history. An Irish man accused of the murder of another Irishman, was prosecuted by a lawyer named O’Reilly, and the accused was defended by Hon. John H. Cameron and Mathew Crooks Cameron. Magee was supposed to be a mem ber of a radical illegal group and for that reason had been trailed to his room and shot. Funds were raised for the defense of Whalen arid when they reached $2600 the treas urer absconded. Whalen was found guilty and sentenced to hang in 1889 after an appeal had been lost. This was the last public hanging to be held in Canada. The second murder case in the ad dress was that of the shooting of George Brown, one of the Fathers of Confederation and leader of the Reform Party. The editor of the Toronto Globe, he was accosted by a printer, who had been discharged and after an argument a scuffle en sued and a gun in the hands of James Bennett wounded Brown in the thigh. The wound wai not con- sidered serious, but after three weeks Brown died and Bennett was charged with his murder. In the trial, defense counsel brought out the fact that Mr. Brown had participated in a meeting of the Globe Company, contrary to his doc tors advise, and had delivered a two and a half hour speech. This was said to have contributed to his death. Bennett was found guilty and sentenced to hang in three weeks’ time, and when asked if he had any comment, suggested that the date should be earlier. The third case cited by Mr. Mc Dougall was that of the Donnellymurders in Biddulph Township when five people were murdered on Feb ruary 6, 1880. The township waA'settled by Irish folk with a majority of the Roman Catholic faith. A number of crimes were committed and the Donnelly family blamed. James and Judith Donnelly, both over 80, were charged with the burning of a barn, but be fore the case was heard, residents took the matter in their own hands and the home visited about midnight. Four of the occupants of the house were bludgeoned to death and only a boy escaped before the house was burned down. In the home about three miles dis tant of Will Donnelly another party met and when one of the brothers opened the door he was shot. Six people weqp charged with the murders but only went to trial and when the jury disagreed, a change of venue was made for the accused. In the fall assizes James Carroll was found not guilty and the others were allowed bail until the next court. They were never tried and the bail money not claimed and so the Bid dulph murderers were never punished as no convictions were registered. L. H. Snider introduced the speak er and a vote of thanks was expressed by George Baskett During the. meeting Mr. and Mrs. W. Beacham entertained the mem bers on the electric guitar and piano. NORMAN COOPER WINS SCHOLARSHIP Announcement is made by Prin cipal J. C. Herbert, of the Ingersoll Collegiate Institute, that Norman Cooper, son of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Cooper, 99 King street west, has been awarded a Dominion-Provincial Stu dent-Aid Scholarship. The scholarship, valued at $400. is awarded to students of high aca demic standing. Norman is believed to be the first Ingersoll student to receive the award. After three years of absence from school, during which time he was em ployed in town, he returned to the I.C.I. last year, and by also following extra-mural activities, he graduated from Upper School in June. He now plans to enroll in the en gineering course at University of Toronto. His friends in Ingersoll congratulate him on his achievement through determination and persei- verance. Mount Elgin — The September meeting of the Women's Association met at the home of Mrs. William Stoakley on Wednesday afternoon of last week, with a good attendance.

BOOMERANG ON DISPLAY The boomerang awarded to the Ingersoll Y’s Men’s Club for their outstanding boys’ work during 1946, and presented to the president, George Clifton, at the International Convention of Y’s (Men’s Clubs at Toledo, Ohio, last month, is on display in the window of the Preston T. Wal ker furniture store. Said to be 150 years old, the boomerang is made of Australian wood and is one of those used in warfare by the aborigines of that country. About 18 inches long by 2’i in width, it is slightly curved and so formed that when thrown, after striking its victim, it rebounds and may be caught by its owner to be used over and over again. The Australian aborigines are highly proficient in wielding the weapon, aiming to strike a vulner able spot such as the temple, where upon the blow can be deadly. It was presented by the Y’s Men’s Club of Melbourne, and held by the Vancouver Club before coming to Ingersoll. Its award was a signal honour to the local club. SPEAKER FROM BOLIVIA AT TRINITY UNITED CHURCH Trinity United Church was filled last Sunday evening when members of the Ingersoll Y’s Men’s Club and their families attended in large num bers to welcome Rev. Alberto Me- rubia, of La Pas, Bolivia, a minister of the Methodist Church who recently attended the International conven tion of Y's Men’s Clubs in Toledo, Ohio, and is at present visiting vari ous Y’s Men’s Clubs in Canada and the U.S.A. He delivered a most interesting address, in the course of which he compared conditions in South Amer ica with those in Canada. He con gratulated the Ingersoll club on its splendid work and also on its oppor tunities, as there are fewer restric tions in this country. He stressed the importance of Y’s Men’s work in offsetting post-war influences on youth. The sendee was in charge of Rev. C. D. Daniel, pastor of Trinity United. Gordon Henry, Ontario re gional director, introduced the speak er, mentioning his work as a minister, as well as his activities with the Y. M.C.A. and the Y’s Men’s Club in Bo livia. George Clifton, president of the Ingersoll club, read the Scripture. Following the service a reception was held in the Church parlours, when the Y’s men and their wives had an opportunity to meet the dis tinguished guest and to hear his in formal talk, describing his country and the customs of its people. From a lace-covered table centred with a beautiful bouquet of zinnias flanked by yellow tapers in crystal holders, refreshments were served by Mrs. Gordon Bisbee and Mrs. Frank Ferguson, assisted by Mes dames Bert Carr, Herman Lindsay, Jack Coles, Gordon Pittock, Kenneth Ford, M.

She also gave an account of the C.N.I.B. pic nic held in Woodstock, which was very fine. Mrs. Long and Miss M. McNaughton are to represent Inger soll on the Oxford County Board of display consisting of nothing but medicines of various types. The bottles in Mr. Gayfer’s window are particularly handsome ones, with a finely etched design on them. They have been in use, Mr. Gayfer states, for 75 years.

Interesting Tree Blooming’In Concession Street Garden A Tree of Heaven, in the garden of William Lambert, 94 Concession street, is attracting a good deal of interest at present. The tree ordin arily blooms every seventh year, but this" particular one, which came from the garden of the late J. B. Muir, is in bloom for the first time in the 19 years of its existence, several mov ings having disturbed its routine. The Chinese Sumac (Ailanthus), as it is sometimes called, and as the name implies, is a native of China, having first been brought to this con tinent in 1784. It grew freely from Central New York State westward, The following recent graduates from the Ingersoll Collegiate Insti tute whe will continue studies at other institutions are: Alice Ashman and Corinne Jones to University of Western Ontario; Dolores Desmond, to Brescia Hall; Norman Cooper and Donald Martyn, University of To ronto; William Warden, Assumption College; David Walsh, Huron Col- lege; Elaine Morrison and Jean Steele, St. Joseph's Hospital Training School, London; Reta Amos, Victoria Hospital, London; Marion Wilson, To ronto East General Hospital; Norine Heeney, Woodstock General Hospi tal. The following are attending Normal School: Audrey Baigent, Jean Barnes, Nancy Cumming, Lor raine Leaper, David Butler. but because of the worms it har boured it became unpopular and was considerably reduced in numbers until the advent to America of the English sparrow, which destroyed the worms. Mr. Lambert is justly proud of his tree, as it is said to be the only one to have bloomed in Ingersoll for many years, at least, and as it repre sents 15 years of careful tending on the part of its present owner. It is seen to the best advantage during the morning and early after noon. BACON, HAM, EXPORTS During the period of January 1 to July 31, 1947, about 157,009,000 pounds of bacon and hams and 2,000,000 pounds of pork offals were shipped to the United Kingdom under bulk purchase agreements. An ad ditional 8,000,000 pounds of bacon have been purchased and booked for early shipment, says the Current Re view of Agricultural Conditions in Canada. The product from about 50 per cent of the inspected hog slaugh ter during this period was directed for expert to the United Kingdom. SUPPLY APPOINTED FOR BAPTIST CHURCH Rev.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1947 Another Line Is the Scene of Battle It is a long time since controversy has raged in women’s fashion circles, as it is now doing, in what has been called “The Battle of the Hemline". For so long women have followed the dictates of fashion, enduring in times past such discomforts as whalebone stiffening, high collars, hobble skirts and bustles, to mention only a few, that it now must come as a jolt to the dictators to find their edicts are not being followed unanimously. Clothes are always designed with some consid eration for the mode of life of the wearer. As the mode changes so will the styles. Women have gone a long way since the last per iod of long skirts. They are never likely to return altogether to that type of living. So they must have clothes to fit in with the present-day picture of hopping on and off busses, in and out of cars, elbowing their way through crowds, working with ' machinery both in the home and factory, as well as doing a great deal of their laundry and all their own housework. For the majority of women, life is as strenuous now as it was during the war years, when utility styles were found satisfactory. In consideration of all that, long, full skirts seem decidedly out of place. Added '0 which is the fact that the average woman is more athletic now than she was 15 years ty;o. Her whole mode of deport ment has changed. Long strides and swinging arms were not the thing in the Victorian days, the fash ions of which are now being copied by designers. The two simply do not combine. On the other hand, a point in design worthy of consideration is form as a whole. Skirts are only part of a costume. With approximately two-fifths of the body above the waistline and three-fifths below, it throws the whole contour out of propor tion when a skirt dangles around the knees, and the legs present a stilt-like appearance from there down. The general effect is hardly human. While designers of women's clothes must aim at grace and beauty, the demand for something prac tical and comfortable cannot be ignored. All those requirements could be met with a hemline two or three inches longer than has prevailed, although anything more would spoil the w'hole thing and probably lead to reactions. It might be that de signers will have to go more slowly in future. Crimes Will Probably Receive Stiffer Penalties In recent weeks two cases have been reported of women in trusted positions having embezzled thdir employers out of thousands of dollars. These, in addition to the numbers of bank, and other, robberies present a disturbing picture. It looks as 'if some people are becoming increasingly bold in their desire to get what they want from others without regard to fairness or honesty. In times past, some thievery has been condoned by the public, when the act was committed by poor people in dire need of food or clothing. As a remedy for such cases, higher pay for workers was* consid< i ill that was necessary. The: were those who contended that crime was bred in. squalor; that all the poor were inherently honest and if lifted out of poverty they would be come model citizens. Unfortunately, present day criminals do not justify that view, for while it is true that crime is bred in squalor, it is in the squalor of the mind that it is bred—not necessarily in ones material surroundings. History is full of tales of men and women, living in utter poverty, whose achievements in science, art, music, literature, etc., have lifted them to pin nacles high above their surroundings, placing them with the immortals. Their ideals were not affected by environment. Nor have many of the criminals been affected by their surroundings either, for some of them have been brought up in comfortable homes, with the best of educational advantages. The likelihood is that none are underpaid for the-amount of work they do, although their incomes might not be sufficient to provide them with all the luxuries they desire, and which they aim to get bv foul means. The root of the trouble seems to lie in their sense of values — overestimating the things they covet, while minimizing the all-importance of honesty, thereby letting down miserably those who would help /them. They cannot complain if the penalty for crime becomes increasingly severe. A More Water Sources Must Be Sought The IngersJil Town Council recently received a communication from the village trustees of Beach- ville requesting information on whether we could supply them ^ith water, as an adequate (water sup ply is neededlin the village, especially for fire pro tection. The council referred the matter to the Public Utilities Commission the manager of which, E. A. Washbum, informed the Beachville trustees that as Ingersoll’s water supply is inadequate for its own needs, it'would not be possible to supply outside points. The cost of piping is another prohibitive con sideration at present. But the suggestion holds interesting possibilities for future consideration. The smaper communities recognize the need for public services. Possessing them they offer ideal living conditions for many people. Thamesford already has its own waterworks sys tem, giving an ample supply to the whole com munity. Beachville was one of the first villages in Ontario to instal hydro-electric power, largely owing to the leadership of the late A. W. Smith, a village trustee of vision. Installation of a waterworks system would be another progressive move. It is more than just a flight of fancy to envisage the day when the ten miles between Ingersoll andWoodstock will be considerably more thickly pop ulated than at present. Adequate water supplies will be absolutely essential. It might be profitable for all the communities concerned to view the sit uation in a spirit of cooperation.

The two are wide as the poles apart. This then is life as two men view it from different angles and from different places. Mr. Edwin L. James is a distin guished journalist on the staff of the New York Times. Mr. Zaslavsky is the editor of Pravda, the organ of the Communist Party in Moscow. There was an exchange of letters between them. Mr. James wrote: “We have our Constitution and Bill of Rights. We are not going to throw them overboard to please the Russians." When this appeared in Pravda it read as follows: “The American Constitution and Bill of Rights allow all United States citizens the right of lying and slan dering with no threat of punish ment” To which Mr, James very quietly and fittingly replied. “This is rather on the cheap side of propaganda. Surely you could have done better.” This will probably go down in his tory as one of the world’s great mas terpieces of under-statement. • • • Zaslavsky wrote caustically about capitalistic newspaper monoply: “What monopoly?”, Mr. James asked. “There are in the United States some 10,000 owners of news papers, daily and weekly. They are of every degree and shade of opinion. Added together, they represent a cross-section of American opinion, expressing all angles of opinion in our free country. Where is the mon opoly?” “But in your country, sir, all news papers must toe the line of the Polit buro. There is one newspaper con trol against our 10,000. Who has a monopoly?” Mr. James goes on to point out that the Government of Russia reposes on the foundation of the Communist party, numbering some three per cent of the population. So when we discuss freedom of the press we are as far off in our terms as when we call our Government a democracy and you call yours a democracy. The New York Times publishes all sides of every argument, even the anti- American speeches of Mr. Gromyko, but Mr. Zaslavsky prints what the Communist party wish to see him print.• • a '“Here is another point of differ The habit of saving has been the foundation of material success through the ages. The modern way to begin is to open a Savings Account at a bank that is prepared to give you friendly help with your financial Affairs. ” The Bank for You ” Mfe Encourage Savings Accounts Ingersoll Branch - Woodstock Branch J. R. Henley, - L. R. Lloyd, Mgr. ence,” says Mr. James: “I can quit The Times when I like and would probably be able to get a position on a newspaper of quite contrary ten dencies—one which, for exaniple, stuck to a party position through thick and thin. There is nothing to prevent my doing so. This is a free country. But you have to go on grinding out Communist propaganda or stop writing. There is no opposi tion paper to which you can go.” In Mr. Zaslavsky’s letter there ap pears thia sentence: “We stand for the WfSSdest freedom of the press." “All right,” says Mr. James, “I make a suggestion”: “An important factor in the Rus sian economy is the use of forced labor. You have millions working under duress. Since your Govern ment keeps it secret there is no pub lic knowledge of how many millions Moscow has toiling under such con ditions. There are not only war prisoners .... there are some mil lions of your own countrymen in re- eductional concentration camps. The number has been estimated anywhere from 8,000,000 to 14,000,000 .... And I have never seen an official denial of these allegations. “... Why not exercise your journ alistic freedom by giving" the world a picture of these concentration camps. If you will write such an article this newspaper will be glad to publish it and I would be willing to | apologize for calling you a phony.” I This leaves it up to Mr. Zaslavsky, I doesn’t it? Well, rather! Pills Dr. Kidney-! "RUFFED GROUSE" by T. M.

EARLY CHICKS NOWPAYING PRODUCERSPoultry raisers were urged early this year by Poultry Services, Do minion Department of Agriculture to buy or hatch chicks a month to two months earlier than usually so as to make eggs available in the fall and' winter for export to Great Britain. They are now benefiting by the pay off. Two cars of new crop eggs were offered to the Special Products Board on August 22, for shipment to Great Britain against the British egg con tract. This was a full month earlier that in 1946, and the 1947 early hatched pullets should enable pro ducers to continue egg deliveries throughout the fall and winter, when Britain wants them most, say of ficials of the Department. Anouncement has been made of ficially through the British Food Mis sion, that the agreement with Canada for the sale of eggs and egg products extending to the end of January, 1949, will not be affected by meas ures being taken by Britain to strengthen her economic position.

INCREASE PRICE OF EXPORT BACON On January 2. 1947, the Right Hon. J. G. Gardiner announced that an agreement had been reached with the United Kingdom Ministry of Food for an increase of $4 per hundred in the price to be paid for Canadian bacon with half of this increase or $2 to be effective in January and a further $2 increase on September 1, 1947. The $2 increase in January raised the price to the United King dom from $25 per hundred pounds for Grade A Wiltshires to $27. The increase which went into effect on* September 1 advanced the price of, Grade A Wiltshires to $29, The price of $29 remains effective until the end of 1948, In accordance with this statement the Meat Board an nounced that the price schedule for all grades and qualities of Wiltshire Sides would be increased by $2 a hundred, effective on product from hogs slaughtered on and after Mon day, September 1. The Meat Board further announced that domestic hog quotas, which have applied at all packing establishments in which hogs were graded for Do minion Government premiums, arc being abolished as of September 1, 1947. This, in effect, means there are no further restrictions on the slaughter of hogs or on the distri bution of pork for Canadian con sumption. Discontinue Government Assistance for Repatriation Hon. Humphrey Mitchell, Minister of Labour, announced a few days ago that the Government had decided to discontinue the provision for finan cial assistance which has been given to persons of the Japanese race de siring to leave Canada and go to Japan. Under this provision, the Government has provided free pas sage for Japanese from Canada to Japan together with a landing grant payable to persons who had no funds. The Minister stated that these provisions for financial assistance had been in effect since December, 1945, that approximately 4,000 Japanese had taken advantage of this offer and proceeded to Japan. After re view of the existing situation the Committee of Cabinet on Japanese Dispersal had decided to discontinue this provision for financial assistance at this time. According to a survey recently completed, 41,862,000 pounds of honey will be produced in Canada in 1947. This estimate includes both light and dark honey'and is based on the condition of the colonies dur ing the second and third weeks of August. Much larger crops are expect ed than in 1946 in all provinces, the greatest improvement being shown in Eastern Canada. Production by provinces is esti mated as follows: Prince Edward Island, 78,0001b.; Nova Scotia, 152,- 000 lb.; New Brunswick. 226,000 lb.; Quebec, 6,124,000 lb.; Ontario,13*598,000 lb.; Manitoba, 7.732,000 lb.; Saskatchewan, 5,802,000 lb.; Al berta, 6,820,000 lb.; and British Co lumbia, 1,330,000 Im y ander with Id again dale and otto, “It isthe others",alvert Hogg,solo, “In theby Mrs. Frank city director fornstitute, gave dress on publicity,n other branchesial evenings forlies, give assistancespeak louder thanick, organize a shiftfor a sick mother, r parcel containinges to be opened each “You seem to have read all the beest literature.

Her nerves were as taut aspiano wires, and when a figure appeared in the French window lead ing from the gallery, she sprangup with an eager cry, thinking itwas Lawrence again. Ttu» cry died in her throat—theinterloper was Curtis Corbin.“Stacy, to put it kindly," he Mid sarcastically, “is Inclined tobe a little too trusting. He admitted to me that he had told you of my desire for him to marryAline Cartier, and my reasons for it. it's quite possible that you repeated thia to her."Suddenly, the high, thin screamof a Negress rent the air!"Mlstah Corbin! Mlstah Corbin!Fiah!”Corbin jerked, as though being awakened roughly from a hypnotic spell. “What has happenednow? Those stupid servants?” He strode to the door, flung itopen.A trembling Negress stood there, her face almost white withpanic.“Mlstah Corbin, sir, theah’s a fiah in the zoo. sir. It growin*fas’." He swore vehemently and jerk ed a finger at Lotus. “Come along,I may need you." Then he plungeddown the stairs. One of the Negroes had connected the garden hose and was playing it on the fire through the bars and meshing of the boa's cage. Itseemed to have almost no effect,and Lotus guessed that the saw dust had been well soaked withkerosene. The smoke colling fromIt looked black and oily. The sight of the stream of waterappeared to throw Corbin into afrenzy. “Turn that off, you fool!" he shouted."You bloody fool!” Corbinswore. "Don't you realize there'sa million dollars worth of stuff in there? The fire and water willruin it if we don’t get it out!"Corbin shot him a venomous A week later Lotus Ames eat on the edge of the pool in ChloeDuval's patio and absentmindedlystroked the ears of one of Mam- Belle's numerous feline companions."Will you ever forgive me for deceiving you, Mamselle?"Chloe nodded understandlngly.“But of course, mon amt, eet ees your work, non?"“Yes, but wo did make use ofyon. Even that letter Valette Fon- deau wrote was at the price of alightened jail sentence."A little tinkling laugh answered her. "I thought eet sounded muchtoo friendly for Valette. You see,we quarreled last time we met, but she has a tempestuous nature,so I thought she might have forgotten eet. Non. I am not angry weetb you, rather am I sad atlosing you. You should do something weelh that golden voice of yours, ma cherle.""I’m afraid there won’t bemany opportunities to make use of it in this sort of work.""Eh, bien, perhaps you weel be using eet to seeng lullabies, then. convince me, she staged a littlescene in her room with him and stationed me behind the bathroom door, so that 1 overheardeverything. He wanted me to marry him immediately, and if ithadn’t been tor Mias Arnea, Iwould have.”Stu Lawrence had crimsoned tothe ears; the face he turned toLotus was abject. “Was that the scene I interrupted?"She almost felt sorry tor him."It was.” “Why didn’t you explain to me?”"If 1 remember correctly, you wouldn’t let me.”He swallowed uncomfortably.“Then I apologise most humbly.” They were now an hour out ofNew Orleans. The wheels had assumed a steady paca when Lotus and Stu Lawrence strolled into theclub car of the Washington-boundtrain. They pushed through the crowd and found stools at the small bar."Don’t tell mo you're going to have a creme do months on aeoltry duy like thia?” Lawrence "Fiah! Mistub Corbin! Mistub Corbin! Flab!"

The following look then tossea him a revolverhe surprisingly drew from ashoulder bolster beneath his coat. "All right you lily-livered coward,DU get it myself. You cover thesnake.” He grabbed Lotus' arm. "Come on. girl, you can help."“That God, it’s safe. Well Iguess that's all.” "Yes.

A moment later old Mr. Cartier and bls granddaughter appeared.They were followed by Stu Lawrence. Lotus gasped.

Starting Next Week in THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE First Estimates on Grain Crop The grain supply situation in Can ada for the 1947-48 crop year is less favourable than a year ago, says the Current Review of agricultural con ditions in Canada. The carry-over of wheat and coarse grains from the 1946-47 crop is again at a near min imum working level. Estimates of wheat production in the current year indicate a reduction of 15 per cent while a reduction of 19 per cent is anticipated for coarse grains. The earlier favourable outlook for good yields in Western Canada deterior ated in July when high temperatures and lack of rain extended over wide areas. This was folowed by insect and hail damage.' However, in On tario and Quebec, hot dry weather in August permitted ripening of fall- sown and early spring-sown grains. In the Maritimes, adequate rainfall and warm weather resulted in proa- pects for good yields. The 1947 Canadian wheat crop is estimated at 358,786,000 bushels, of which 336,000,000 bushels is the Western production, says the & view. Total coarse grain production is esti mated at 567,404,000 bushels. The total yield of oats is placed at 400,- 000,000 bushels, a reduction, of 27 per cent in both Eastern and West ern Canada. Barley production esti mated at 159,887,000 bushels is a reduction of three per cent from 1946. The rye crop is expected-to amount to 7,448,000 bushels, an in crease of 80 per cent Eastern Can ada’s coarse grain production is 27 per cent below 1946. In Western Canada, where about 75 per cent of the country’s coarse grain will .be produced this year, the reduction amounts to a total of 16 per centL Mrs. Percy Slaght opened her home on Tuesday afternoon of lastweek for the September meeting ofthe Women’s Association.

He said that a higher advance to farmers is possible because of the favourable prices received by the Ca nadian Wheat Board on sales to date, and because of the guarantees and other provisions contained in the United Kingdom wheat, contract ap plicable to the balance of the present crop, and also the 1948 and 1949 LATE SEASON CONTROLOF POTATO BLIGHT Purdj® new equipment DocME dentist fay B’impii opportunities So, H R time you need extra nqfiky, use Household’s idftpt, friendly money ser- gbe.

Britain has reimposed certain lim itations on the convertibility of ster ling held by non-sterling area coun tries, because of the heavy drain of convertibility on her dollar resources. The main significance of this change to Canadian exporters is that they can no longer expect to obtain pay ment in sterling for shipments to any country outside the sterling area. This represents a return to the posi tion as it was prior to the beginning of this year. The change dpes not in any way affect transactions in sterling be tween Canada and sterling-area countries. Canadian may, as in the past, accept payment in sterling for exports to the sterling area, and this currency may be converted into Ca nadian dollars through their bank in Canada. !E S D E O R R V DE IC AD E t0 serving C ^a n s Jbebflla property t* .

In light. and dark (Science Service News) The exceptionally heavy growth of vines and the presence of late blight will make potato digging both difficult and dangerous thia autumn and, unless early killing frosts occur, the chemical destruction of the vines will be a very necessary procedure. September is always the most dang erous month as the lower tempera tures and the more frequent rains provide ideal conditions for late blight infection and spread. The fre quent use of fungicides is most im portant during this critical period, states L. C. Callbeck, Assistant Plant Pathologist, Dominion Laboratory of Plant Pathology, Charlettetown, P. E. I. It is now generally realized that the frequent losses from storage rot are caused by digging the crops while the tops are still green or partially green, and infected with late blight. The tubers became contaminated with the late blight spores during digging operations and the disease developed in the storage cellars and produced the characteristic late blight tuber rot This infection of the tubers may be prevented if the crop is not dug until at least ten days following the complete death of the foliage and stems. There are now several chemicals on the market suitable for killing potato vines. These are sodium ar senite (Handy Killer), and nitro cresols and nitro phenols (Sinox Gen eral, Improved Dow—66, etc.). Po tatoes can" be dusted with aero-cy- anamid, two applications of 20 to 25 lb. per acre being necessary to kill the plants. The complete coverage of the plants by the chemical employed is the most important feature to con sider. The nozzles and boom should be adjusted to give maximum coverage, the pressure should be adequate to drive the spray well into the heavy vines, and in many cases it will be necessary to spray both ways of the rows. When vines are tall it is not always possible to cover the upper parts of the plants but a simple de vice may be employed to overcome this difficulty. A heavy wooden pole suspended under the tractor by a rope or chain will push the vines over so that the spray will cover even the very tall plants. This device makes it possible for the chemical to come LEVER-TYPE GREASE GUN DEVELOPS S.tlOO LBS. PRESSURE. ASSURING LUBRICATION TO EVERY PART OF YOUR VEHICLE.

New Era for Pacific Shipping Acquisition by Vancouver ship owners of 44 Canadian war-built “Park” ships opened up a new era in the deep-sea shipping industry of the Pacific coast. Prior to 1939, ocean-going shipping services from British Columbia were dominated by British and American interests. With the 'exception of two trans-Pacific passenger liners, the “Empress of Asia” and the “Empress of Russia”, there were no Canadian registered deep-sea vessels making Vancouver their home port. Fifty-two regular lines were oper ating from British Columbia ports in 1939, while today there are 110 •teamship lines registered in Van couver. Not all of these are operat ing, however, due to the wartime dislocation of steamship services.

AH provinces report that a^much larger percentage of their total chick pro duction in 1947 took place prior to late March or early April. Alberta showed an increase in hatchings of 29.9 per cent for the 1947 season to June, compared with 1946; Prince Edward Island, 20.5 per cent; British Columbia, 19.3 per cent; Nova Scotia, 14.5 per cent; Saskat chewan, 14 per cent; Manitoba, 12.6 per cent; Quebec, 9.8 per cent; New Brunswick, 2.7 per cent; and Ontario with the greatly predominating num ber of hatchings (21,760,758), 1.4 per cent increase. Reports of the commercial produc tion of turkey poults indicate that the season’s production in 1947 is slightly over three times that of 1946. The production for the month of June is about 150 per cent greater than in June, 1946. g Coming I Famous AILS September 21 >nd His A woman wrote to a daily paper from a very lonely rural spot: ‘‘My sister and I aren’t exactly lonely out here.
