Large Crowds Attended
Ingersoll Fair 100th Anniversary
Perfect October weather prevailed
Thursday, Friday and Saturday of
last week for the one hundredth
anniversary of the Ingersoll Fair.
The first day was devoted to arrang
ing exhibits and judging in the
“Crystal Palace", where a fine dis
play of flowers, fruit, vegetables,
and grains was arranged, as well as
products of the culinary skill, needle
craft and art of women folk through
out the county; all of which was of
a particularly fine type, and which
must have added considerably to the
difficulty of making awards.
Compared with that of other
years, garden and field crops show
ing, was less impressive, except for
the roots. There were no mammoth
pumpkins this year, but considering
the difficulties of production during
the past season, the husbandmen of
Oxford County have no reason to be
sfahamed of their achievements. Quite
the reverse.
Highlight of the occasion was Fri
day afternoon’s ceremony when a
handsome cut limestone pylon with
steel flagstaff was unvtiled by Mrs.
J. H. Nancekivell and Miss Edna
Currie of the Ladies’ Committee.
This pylon, donated by the Provin
cial Department of Agriculture, con
tains a bronze plaque commemorat
ing the 100th anniversary of the
Fair.
A parade of floats by manufac
turers, Women’s Institutes $nd
others, led by the Ingersoll Y’s Men's
Boys’ and Girls’ Band, formed at the
Market Square at 1.30, proceeding
to the park along king and Hall '
Streets. The float arranged by the ,
Salford Women’s Institute, was par
ticularly appropriate, commemorat- ]ing as it did, the pioneer women of |
the county who contributed so much ;to its development and prosperity. ‘
On the float were Mesdames Fred (Gregg, Walter Wilson, Alfred Dick- j
out, Charles Wheeler, Cecil Wilson,
also Gwen Gregg and Margaret
Wheeler, all wearing costumes of a ’
by-gone day and surrounded by do- t
mestic articles used by our ancestors,
1 such as a churn, wool winder, spin-
t ning wheel, parlor organ, infants*
t cradle, rocking chairs, etc. The whole
. arrangement reflected great credit
- of its promoters.
> Children from the Ingersoll public
- schools paraded to the park and oc-
, cupied a space in front of the pylon
i during the unveiling ceremony.
Emerson Moulton, president of the
■ Fair Board, introduced Tory Gregg,
' Wingham, who acted as master of
i ceremonies, introducing the special
speaker, W*. C. Watson, Toronto,
Deputy Minister of Agriculture, who
substituted for Hon. Thomas Kenne
dy, who was unable to be present. In
his address, Mr. Watson congratu
lated the citizens of the community
as well as the Fair Board for the
fine record attained. He also re
minded them of their opportunities
and responsibilities if Oxford County
is to retain the important position it
already holds in the country’s econ
omic life.
Other speakers were His Worship
Mayor C. W. Riley, Rev. Charles D.
Daniel, S. A. Gibson, K. R. Daniel,
M.P., and T. R. Dent, M.L.A., each
of whom expressed pleasurd^on being
present at such an important gath
ering which was the result of the
' faith of those who in years gone by
had by their foresight and industry
laid the foundations of our present
prosperity.
Other events of the afternoon
were the Athletic Meet, sponsored
by the Big 8, Gentlemen’s Road Race
and Pony Race, Ayrshire and Jersey
Show, Light Horses and Saddle
Classes, and Baby Show.
On Saturday afternoon,
grounds were crowded again for the
big Holstein and Hog Show, Inger
soll Kiwanis Calf Club Achievement
results, Oxford County Champion
ship Calf Club Show, judging of
heavy horses and the horse races.
The attendance was very gratify
ing being about 5000 on Friday and
twice that number on Saturday.

MANY BABIES IN THE

Keen interest was in evidence as
42 mothers entered their children at
the baby show, an interesting feature
at the Ingersoll Fair last week. The
judges, Mesdames Murray Christie,
A. R. McCombs and G. Pittock faced
a difficult task as they weighed the

Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Wilson, Inger
soll; 2nd, to Jill , daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. William Moggach, Jr.,

yer’s so^Robert, 2nd; Mr. and Mrs.
Gordon States* daughter, Linda, 3rd;

PRIZE WINNING
COLTS PURCHASED BY
OTTAWA MAN
Following a very successful sea
son of prize-winning at various shows
and fairs throughout the district, A.
D. Robinson, R. R. 4, Ingersoll, has
disposed of his pair of Belgian co^s
to Mr. Pritchard, Ottawa. The
colts purchased by Mr. Robinson,
last spring at Lucknow, have been
entered at 19 shows at which they
were awarded 45 first prizes in all.
' A special music treat rewarded the
many Ingersoll citizens who attended
! the first of a series of concerts in
St. James’ Parish Hall, Ingersoll, on
! Thursday night, October 9th. The
! artists responsible for the excellent
and varied programme were a group
of young Canadians, Katharine Muir
Irwin, piano; Mary Morrison, so
prano; Bernard Bray, harmonica vir
tuoso, and Roger Swanson, violin.
These concerts brought to Inger
soll through the efforts of the mem
bers of the Ingersoll Collegiate, are
subsidized by the Department of
Education in order to give the stu
dents of smaller schools the same
opportunities of hearing good musical
performances that their fellow-stu
dents in larger cities have. Thus the
programme was especially designed
to interest them, consisting of good
yet well-known and popular select
ions from the great composers.
Tribute should be paid to Mrs.
Irwin for her fine work, not only in
^Tier own solos, but also in her sym
pathetic accompaniment of the other
artists throughout the programme.
Her Chopin group the “Fantasia Im
promptu” and the "Etude in E
Major” was one of the highlights of
the evening, and the Blue Danube
Waltz by Strauss made a brilliant
finale for the programme. Mrs. Irwin
delighted the older members of the
audience as well as the younger ones
with her rendition of “Prokofieff’s
Peter” and the “Wolf” on special
request.
Charming Miss Morrison conveyed
by her dramatic manner the meaning
of her songs to the audience even
when they* did not understand the
language. Her pure tones and
simple and sincere interpretations
were particularly effective in the re
ligious group, “Jesus Joy of Man’s ■
Desiring”, by Bach and "Panls An-
gelicus” by Franck.
■ Unusual interest was aroused by
the harmonica virtuoso, Bernard
Bray, who proved that the harmonica .
when played by an artist is a fine
musical instrument . Its musical re
sources were demonstrated effect
ively in association with the violin .
in Bach’s Double Concerto, origin
ally for two violins, and with the
voice in “Jesu Joy of Man’s Desir/
Ings.” Mr. Bray’s virtuosity made the
"Flight of the Bumblebee” by Rim
sky-Korsakoff and “Hora Stacatto”
by Dinicu one of the most popular
groups of the programme.
Mr. Swanson’s first solo number
was Handel’s "Sonata in A Major”,
a test of his true musicianship. His
singing time and technical skill were
shown to advantage in the melodious
Polish number “Hejre (Pretty)
Kati” by Hubay and his sympathetic
interpretation brought fresh beauty
to the ever popular "Waltz in A
Flat” by Brahms.
The audience’s* enthusiastic recep
tion of this great concert augurs well
for the success of the series* which
music lovers feel is an outstanding
addition to the cultural life of the
town. The following three concerts
will be held on October 30, Novem
ber 20, and January 29. While the
attendance was very gratifying to
those responsible for this concert
series, a limited number of tickets
for the remaining three concerts are
still available. These may be secured
by contacting any students of the
Collegiate or any member of the
staff. They are also on sale at Carr’s
Book Store.

An estimated 1500 or 1800 people
were on hand Thanksgiving morning
to witness Ingersoll’s second annual
soap-box derby, sponsored by three
Service Clubs in town, the Kiwanis,
Y’s Men and. Lions. Threatening skies
failed to dampen the enthusiasm of
either competitors or spectators, and
before the affair was over, the sun
appeared making conditions ideal.
Harry Lambert made a capable
master of ceremonies, while George
Clifton acted as commentator. The
judges were Gordon Warden, Ed.
Washburn, Michael Murray, Carl
Palmer. B. Zurbrigg. Starters, P, T.
Walker, Len Coles, J. C. Herbert.
Recorders, Ken Ford, John Lockhart,
Ray Rivers, Roy Bonner, Dr. G. H.
Emery was official photographer.
Prizes were awarded for the fast
est and also for the best car in each
class.
Winners were—Pee Wee, best car,
Lightning Bolt, driver, J. Geddie;
mechanic, H. Smith; fastest, Fire-
stone, J. Laarz and D. Mackenzie;
Bantam, best car, Ozark Ike, Bob
Simpson and Bill Turner; fastest,
Silver Arrow, Gordon and George
Rodwell. Midget, best car, Comet, D.
Longfleld and J. Hooper; fastest, Jet
Jet, C. and M. iMott.
In all there were 28 entries, all
of particularly good construction,
showing considerable improvement
over last year's entries.
The grand championship winners
were J; Laarz and D. Mackenzie,
with Firestone, which entitles them
to hold the Allan Horton Silver Cup
for a year. In addition, each received
a smaller silver cup from the Y’a
Men’s Club.
The committee in charfee regret
that the prizes with the exception of
the silver cups, did not arrive in time
for the race, however, as soon as
they arrive they will be placed for
display for a few days in Bartlett’s
window, after which they will be dis
tributed to the winners.
Needlework Display at Fair
Reflected Skill of Exhibitors
This might be the machine-age,
but the women in this district have
not lost the art of queens—that of
plying a deft needle, and of dis
playing great skill in doing so, as
was evidenced by the beautiful exhi
bit of needle and handwork of var
ious types on display in the Crystal
Palace at the Fair. Prize winners

Love of the Soil Made Pennsylvania
Dutch Good Farmers
Dr. C. E. Reaman, Professor of English at the
Ontario College of Agriculture, said in a recent
address that, “North American farmers owe much
to the Dutch who settled in Pennsylvania." He
credited them with having been responsible for the
adoption of the bank barn in America, as well as
having developed the use of fertilizer.
. These people are not to be confused with the
Pennsylvania Deutsch, who came from Germany.
In recent years, the former have preferred to be
Renown as Pennsylvania Hollanders, in order to
^eliminate any doubt as to their ancestry. Even
amongst the latter there is little similarity to the
present-day Germans, as they came to America
from the German States, before Prussia had be
gun its destructive propaganda; many of them
coming in order to escape Prussiahism.
Any person who has met these fine folk in
Pennsylvania (Penn’s Wobds), who has seen their
cultivated farms and their well-cared-for live
stock; who has experienced the comfort of their
homes, and their hospitality, wilt agree with Pro
fessor Reaman, that North America owes much to
them. Their kinsmen in our own Niagara District,
also in York and Waterloo Counties are for the
most part carrying on their traditional love of the
soil.
It has been stated that practically every member
of the present staff at O.A.C. can trace his ances
try to the Pennsylvania Dutch. They seem to have
a super-instinct when dealing with the soil, and
yet their methods do possess an element of sim
plicity or naturalness. They do not have to aban
don their farms because of unproductivity or soil
erosion; they apply fertilizer for the one and
practice crop rotation to prevent the other.
Farm gardens, orchards, woodlots and wells are
all recognized as part of the plan in good farm
ing. As the professor said: “they had something
that has lasted through the years". That some
thing has entitled them to be called the best farmers
in the world.
In Praise of Western Ontario’s
Young People
One of the oldest human habits seems to be
expression of disapproval of young people, by their
seniors. Older people constantly see things being
done that they would not have thought of doing.
They seldom reveal what their reactions might
have been if the thought had come to them.
It is a pleasure therefore, to record an exper
ience we had recently, which showed that some
young people could hold their own in good be
haviour with their elders of any age.
It was while waiting in the London station that
the impression was gained. Gathered there were
several hundred students from the University of
“Western Ontario, on their way to a freshmans*
dance at I ort Stanley. They stood about the sta
tion in groups, waiting for others to join them.
People in the station remarked on their good be
haviour. In no group was there any semblance
of rowdyism or vulgarity. In only one was there
there a suggestion of sophistication, and that
appeared to be all on the surface. The femininity
of the young ladies was noticeable as was also the
chivalry of the young men.
Now this was a scene in which, those who might
be called “average" Canadians took part. The
majority of those young people were from West
ern Ontario homes. Disparity of wealth did not
lead to segregation of any sort. As well as having
pursuit of an education in common, they were out
together for an evening of fun. Not all were
freshies, so their good behaviour could not have
been cynically attributed to their having to deport
themsdves circumspectly. They appeared as if
good manners came naturally to them. Such scenes
could probably be duplicated many times over, in
hundreds of communities.
In a few years’ time these young people will go
out to do their part in the world’s work. If they
retain the,happy combination of education and
refinement dispjayed on that recent evening, West
ern Ontario will have reason to be proud of them.
Autumn Is a Season of New Hopes
The season of ^ingathering for 1947 is about to
close. In a few/weeks the husbandman will have
garnered all the' fruits of his labours of recent
months. I
Crops are nJt what many would like to see
them. They are not up to what they have been
•when at their best. On the other hand, in most
cases, they are better than was expected, because
of the cold wet spring and late planting.
The coming winter brings a sense of uncer
tainty for many. Food, fuel and money are likely
to be less plentiful. ’Most people will be fortunate
if they break even by next spring.
Even at that, there is no need for pessimism, for
all around us, fon every' side are heartening signs.
The flapping colours with which the out-of-doors
is painted, are not proclaiming the end of life.
They merely betoken the passage from one season
to another. After a rest the trees will burst forth
to new life, perhaps even lovelier than before.
The good brown earth that has produced so much,
is merely resting to gain strength for a renewed
effort. Pastures, cropped closed by hungry cattle,
will, while blanketed with snow, send their roots
deep into the earth for ifourishment , to be in
readiness for the warm spring sun. Then new
THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, OCT, 16, 1947blades will shoot upward, to continue the functionfor another year.Thus, the wonderful cycle of the seasons rollson, giving us every reason for thankfulness for
the present and hope for the future.
The Growth of Instability
“The political life of our time has shown a pas
sion for quick returns. Since the century opened,
popular attention in France, Germany, England,
America has been increasingly focused on short-
run tangible objectives. Measures to bring specific
material benefits to the nation, or to whatever
groups or classes could secure control, have en
grossed the public interest, raising the political
temperature while they shortened the political
perspective; so that along with considerable
achievement there developed a growing instability.
A new and dangerous temper pervades public life
as the ability to envisage policy in the larger and
more permanent sense tended to disappear. The
kangaroo beat both the donkey and the elephant.

WILL AMERICA LEAD?— by —
R. J. Deachman
We have a problem before us, a
very great problem. The world, be
cause of war, lacks capacity to pro
duce. Canada, the United States
have advanced substantial loans to
encourage production, to get these
nations back on their feet. It's good
business as far as it goes, but we
wonder, quite naturally how long
the process of restablishment is
going to take and when the battered
nations will be in a position to pur
chase the products of other countries
and pay for them by exports which,
after all, is th enormal road to pros
perity. Over the longer period inter
national trade cannot be maintained
on borrowed money. Eventually pay
day comes.
There is one way out and a very
simple way, it would consist inbreaking down the barriers of world
trade so that these nations might
find a more ready market and being
able to sell more, would buy more,,
and the current of business flowing
Ithrough the normal channels of
trade would bring strength, and hope
and faith in the coming of a more
normal world.
This is the natural process of re
covery but it is quite obvious that
the process cannot start with the
poor nations. They will not be in
clined to lower the barriers to trade
if an example does not come from
higher up. That action should begin
in the United States. I have stated
that before, it has been stated again
again and again, leaders of thought
on the other side of the line realize
the nature of the problem and have
not been afraid to speak. Henry
Wallace, a gentleman with whom I
am n6t usually in accord, stated the
case very clearly in the February
10 issue of the New Republic. It
amounted to this: Isolated prosperity
is impossible. The United Slates
must seek a prosperous world, do
something to make it so. He pointed
out too that the United States must
also furnish its fair share of money
for setting the backward areas of
the world on the waj^to expanded
agricultural and industrial product
ion.
THE BROADER OUTLOOK
James Reston, one of the most
competent American writers, a Pu
litzer prize winner, put the case
before the people of America in a
recent issue of the New York Times.
It wan done with singular clarityand precision."If we want to keep our people
employed”, he wrote, “we must
increase our markets broad. The
other side is that unless other'
nations are more prosperous than
they were before this war, they
will neither be able to buy our
products nor defend their free
dom.
Unfortunately, the economic
position of most countries is in
finitely worse now than it was in
1939. Before the war their fac
tories had not been smashed and
their ability to produce and there
fore to sell their products was
normal. Now however, their pro
duction is low, their supply of
dollars is virtually exhausted and
most of their United States se
curities, which were a source of
purchasing power in the Nineteen
Twenties and Nineteen Thirties,
are gone . . .
“The flow of world trade,
therefore, which is greatly de
pendent on the economic foreign
policy of the United States, will
play a decisive part in the role
that these and other exporting
and importing countries like
Britain, Canada, Czechoslovakia,
Belgium and Australia can play
in world commerce and world
security.”
The United States is the only
country which can lead in a big way.
It should do it now. The haggling
process of tariff reduction, the idea
of lowering the rate on one item in
exchange for reductions in another
is not enough for present circum
stances. It does not go deep enough
to solve the problem. The thing is
for the United States to come out
for genuine tariff reduction, forget
for the moment what other nations
do, strike out by itself on new lines
and then await results. Such action
would break down barriers, remove
fear, open up the channels of trade.
Would this hurt the United States?
This is not a rational question. The
chances are if it is not done our
good neighbor will eventually head
the world into another depression.
That would not be a charming role
for the United States to play. It did
this once, there is no call for a re
peat performance. Is there any
danger to the American economy in
tariff reduction? Not the slightest,
they would be paid a thousand times
in their contribution to world pros-! perity.
It means a complete change of
front. The United States has at
times lowered tariffs and then put

Forming the background for the
bridal party were settings of all
white flowers. The chancel illumined
by the light of candelabrae was
banked with settings of white ’mums
and the guest pews, flanking the
white carpeted bridal aisle, were
marked with clusters of the same
flowers.
Entering the church on the arm
of her father, the bride wore an
original portrait gown of traditional
' satin fashioned with a moulded
basoue and sweeping circular skirt
which continued into a full length
train. The bodice was made with long
sheath tight sleeves and a deep oval
neckline encrusted with a wide
bertha. The only note of trimming
was an applique of entwined satin
leaves which encrusted the neckline
and edged the bertha. Spray of
matching leaves crested the chaplet
which caught her full length veil of
tulle illusion to her head. She car
ried a cascade bouquet of gardenias
with baby ’mums and stephanotis.

with entwined satin leaves which
accented the dropped shoulder line
and continued down the back of the
bodice to the waistline. Accenting
the waistline was a bustle bow of
looped satin cording caught with
satin roses. The bridesmaids, Miss
Nancy Kennedy and Miss Elizabeth
Gilchrist, both of Winnipeg, Miss
Joan Paterson and Miss Barbara
Ann Scott, both of Ottawa, and Miss
Marikay Tanney of Iroquois, On

demure satin bonnets, the brims
edged with satin leaves, and caught
at the back with a single satin rose.

BRITAIN’S FIRST
THEOLOGICAL COLLEGE
FOR WOMEN
Theology is another opening for
women of Britain for which new
training facilities will soon exist.
William Temple College is to be
opened near Chester in November,
in memory of Dr. William Temple,
the late Archbishop of Canterbury,
who was a keen supporter of the pro
ject to found the Church of England
Theological College for women. Di
ploma courses will be given on Christ
ian faith with particular reference to"
its bearing on the structure of so
ciety. They are planned for women
anxious to take up church, social or
educational work on lines that will
give them thorough grounding in the
teachings of the Christian religion.
FERTILIZER EXPANDING
BUSINESS
Production of chemical fertilizer
in Canada has expanded rapidly. Dol
lar value of the output in 1939 was
approximately 313,000,000. The
1946 production was valued at more
than 360,000,000. While some in
crease in prices is reflected in these
figures, production itself jumped by
over 200 per cent during the same
period. t
Since agriculturists have come to
realize the value of chemical fertil
izers in producing greater yields,
consumption has shown a general
climb upwards. In 1930, 164,950 tons
of mixed fertilizer were consumed.
This leaped to 232,926 tons in 1939.
Statistics for 1946 placed the con
sumption for that year at 642,497
tons. While these may seem to be
rather astronomical figures it should
be pointed out that from a fertilizer
consumption viewpoint, Canada still
lags far behind many European
countries. For example the small
country, Denmark is reported to
have used almost 800,0^) tons this
year.
THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, OCT. 16,1947CLEAN UP WEEDINFESTED AREAS BEACHVILLEMany late fall weeds should re
ceive attention at thiw time of the
year, -ays John D. MacLeod, Direct
or of the Crops, Seeds and Weeds
Branch, Ontario Department of Agri
culture. If left standing, seeds may
be distributed by various agencies,
including wind, water, animals, and
birds, thereby infesting new areas.
The wind carries some weed seeds
long distances in drifting soil, also
over frozen ground and snow. A re
cent experiment proved this fact
when it was found that six ounces
of surface soil taken from a spot
along a road fence contained the
following seeds: Stickweed, 330;
Wild (Mustard, 267; Hare’s Ear Mus
tard, 99; Stinkweed, 3; Black Bind
weed, ISO; Lamb’s Quarters, 15 and
Ragweed, 9. Another experiment
conducted some years ago showed
the presence of many seed weeds in
snow—thirty-two seeds of nine
species of weeds having been found
In two square feet of snow drift
Neglected fall weeds will spread
plant diseases, gather and hold snow,
clog,ditches and thus hinder the
flow of water, and are dangerous
from a Are standpoint and a source
of infestation to the entire commun
ity. Many fields throughout the
Province are infested with wild car-
rdt, toad flax and ragweed and should
be mown at this time, raked up and
burned and the infested area brought
into the crop rotation. Seeds of neg
lected weeds growing in vacant lots,
around buildings, fence lines and
on banks of rivers, small streams and
ditches, may be carried long dis-
ances by spring floods. By cleaning
up and burning all neglected weeds
at this time, farmers can improve
the appearance of their prdperty and
help to control weeds, not only on
their own farms but also on the
property of their neighbours.

Dr. Clifford Bronson, an interne. RoesMnoelng with Janet Harris. a nursetrom his hospital. He suggests that sheforget all about Dr. Eynon and theclinic and marry him. But Janet wasn'tready to five an answer Back at thehospital, old Mr. Hartighn. whose deathwas expected almost any day. tellsJanet be wants to make out his will andurges her to round up three witnessestor htm. Mr. Hartigan dies. Janet tasummoned to the office ol Dr. Farquhar. head of the hospital, to tell of thecircumstances surrounding the signingof the Hartigan will before Mr. Prentice.Hartlgan'a attorney.
week when Naomi Farquhar telephoned’ and told me that Dr.Stoneleigh, the famous pediatrician, was staying with them.And I couldn’t miss that."
She laughed at his bluntness.He looked surprised, then, suddenly realizing what he had justsaid, he colored in embarrassment. “1 mean—er—that is—I
did not mean—”"Never mind, I understand,
and I'd like very much to havedinner with you.”The cuisine was excellent, from
the thick onion soup to the mar-ron glace and the amber-coloredsherry. Afterward they just satand talked leisurely. Janet wasstartled to find that her companion liked books as much as she.“Dr. Stoneleigh has just re
turned from the Pediatriciansconvention; he says they’ve madewonderful progress along—Janet,
you’re not listening.”She turned sharply, “Yes, I
am—the wine made me sleepy,but I’m listening.”"I called you Janet,” he saidas though he made a discovery.“Yes, it sounded very nice.”
"1 think this ‘Dr. Eynon,' ‘Miss
"Oh yes, quite normal. I tookhis pulse too and it was regular.”
"Was he in the habit of taking
bromides or sedatives?"
"Occasionally he liked a mildsedative to make him sleep, buthe had had nothing that night.”
“You can prove that?"Dr. Farquhar shot Janet amild, amused wink."Of course,” she said. "Entries of that sort are always
made on the patient’s charts."“But you were the nurse onduty that night, were you not?You could have failed purposelyto enter it on the chart.”Janet flushed angrily. “I amafraid I don’t understand you. I
came on duty at ten o'clock.Most of the patients are asleepbefore then, and if they are going to take sedatives, they receive them around nine. If Mr.
Hartigan had asked for one later, I could have given it to him
and failed to enter it, as you say,but I don’t see what you are implying."Prentice smiled superciliously.•’Don’t you?”
"No, I don't. Besides, both Dr.Eynon and Dr. Bronson werewitnesses. I’m sure they wouldhave noticed it if Mr. Hartiganweren’t himself.”
"You were Mr. Hartigan’s pri
vate nurse, weren’t you?"
"Yes, when he came here aj ear ago. I was his nurse fori ■ first six months, but he need-i -<■ little personal attention andUie hospital stall was so depleted
that he relinquished me for regular duty."“Did he tell you much about
himself?”“He talked mostly about Oakhart, his country estate. He tookgreat pride in it; partly. I think,because Mrs. Hartigan had beenso fond of it. He said both theirsons had been killed in the firstWorld War and Oakhart still heldmemories of their childhood forhim.”
"Have you ever been to Oakhart?”
"No, I never have.""I see," he said slowly, andJanet wondered just what it was
he saw. "Well, Miss Harris.I’m going to ask you to be thereat three o’clock next Thursdayfor the reading of the will.", "But I’m on duty that day,
Mr. Prentice.”
Dr. Farquhar made a casualgesture with his big hand. “I’llsee that you’re released from
duty on Thursday, Miss Harris.”His eyes twinkled mysteriouslyas though he knew some secretabout her that whs amusing himvery much indeed.
She arose, an undefinable uneasiness urging her to leave theroom, to get away from his efficient-looking brief case and hisprobing questions.
"Will that be all then, Mr.Prentice?”
He nodded briskly, already dismissing her from his mind asthough she were a summons thathe had delivered and could forget.
"Yes," he said, "that will beall. But don’t forget Thursday,Miss Harris—it’s more important than you realize."After leaving Dr. Farquhar’soffice, Janet hurried on to theclinic.
Her mind was in a turmoil. Why
was it necessary for her to bepresent at the reading of thewill? She wasn’t even a witness.Also, there had been somethingpeculiar in Mr. Prentice’s atti
tude and the odd twinkle in Dr.Farquhar’s eyes. She gave uptrying to puzzle it out as shereached the office.
"Were you planning anythingfor this evening, Miss Harris?” |"Why no, Dr. Eynon, nothingspecial.” |

only two he would expect Janetto be on familiar terms with.She was grateful for Cliff’ssteadying hand beneath her elbow.Motioning to two vacant chairs,the lawyer seated himself at the
head of the table. With greatdeliberation he removed somepapers from his briefcase. Janetrecognized Mr. Hartigan’s spidery writing.“This is the original will,” Mr.Prentice explained. "It was myintention to put it in legal form,but Mr. Hartigan’s unexpectedlysudden death prevented it and

"It’s Richard. The middlepart is long and tongue-twisting—I’m Welsh, you know. Say it,Janet . . ,""Richard,” she ^said. .softly."You know, I never liked ituntil now.”
"You’re too pretty to take lifeso seriously."
Oakhart sprawled, a low English Tudor house of weatheredold brick, leaded windows gleam
ing in the afternoon sunlight, ablue-gray slate roof blending into the hazy spring sky.
Mr. Prentice met them in thedark, polished han. Throughglass doors leading to the living
room Janet saw that»all the furniture was covered with muslindust protectors. At the sight ofCliff, the lawyer raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Mr. Prentice, may I presentDr. Bronson? He was one ofthe witnesses of Mr. Hkttigan’swill," Janet explained. <
"Delighted, Mr. Bronson, butit really wasn’t needftary foryou to come."“He very kindly offered todrive me to Oakhart," Janetsaid. “It doesn’t matter if hehears the reading too, does it?”“No, of course not. not at all.
Mr. Prentice tried hard to soundaffable, but he was not convincing "As the house hasn’t been
in use for a year, I phoned aheadand had Mrs. Miles open the $len.There’s more warmth in there."He ushered them 'through apaneled cherry-wood door ofGothic design. Six people wereseated around the long, polishedrefectory table inside; a small
briquet fire flickered in the grate.Mr. Prentice gestured first atthe two .women and man and
sitting close together near thedoor. Janet recognized them as
the three she had seen at thechapel service. They all seemedcut from the same mold—long,
thin, supercilious faces withsmall, nervous dark eyes andtension written in very line oftheir angular bodies."Mr. Hartigan’s grandniece,Mrs. Augustine Gremont; her
husband, Mr. Gremont. and theirdaughter, Miss Gwendolyn Gremont.”His eyes shifted to a moon
glaze of a dying cod.
“Mr. Hartigan’s will,” he saidprecisely, “is going to come asa shock to some of you, I’mafraid—”
For a mere instant Mrs. Gremont appeared startled, thenshe quickly regained her smug
mask. She moved closer to thetable, sitting more erectly. Without turning her head, her eyes
swept over her sister, Abigail—pity and condescension were reflected in them . . ,
Mr. Prentice adjusted hispince-nez. His thin lips began tomove, his voice rising and fall
ing monotonously, without inflection, as though he were delivering a boring sermon for the one-hundredth time.
“ ‘I,Sean Bryan Hartigan, being offsound mind, do hereby de-
clare^his to be my last will andtestinnent, taking precedenceover any former wills . . ”
His voice droned on, readingthe legal tones that clever oldMr. Hartigan knew from experience were necessary. Janet sawthe three Gremonts leaning for
ward tensely. Mrs. Gremont’slong, scarlet - lacquered nailswere like talons grasping thetable edge, her eyes glitteredwith avarice.
" ‘To my grand niece, IreneHartigan Gremont, her husband,Justine Gremont, and their
daughter, Gwendolyn, I leave thesum of one dollar each. Theyare amply supplied with the
world’s goods and have no needof my money.”’
There was a loud, sucking intake of breath as Mrs. Gremontstood up.
I "There’s been some mistake!We are Mr. Hartigan’s nearest/relatives—he can’t have been inhis right mindl”Her brittle, cigarette-huskyvoice cracked gratingly. Mr.Prentice held up an admonishing hand . . .
"Please, Mrs. Gremont, let mefinish the will before you discussit.”
She sat down and he continued,"‘To my other grandniece, Abigail Hartigan, I leave an annuity of four hundred'dollars permonth. This will provide for herwhile she pursues her variousschemes for enlightening mankind, which, however well inten-tioned, I must confess I bavspever been able to understand.(TO BE CONTINUED*

FARM INVESTMENT
TOTALS BILLIONS
Capital investment in Canadian
farms in 1946 amounted to $5,922,-
347,000, more than 38 per cent above
the figure recorded by the 1941 cen
sus, according to the Quarterly Bul
letin of Agricultural Statistics for |
April-June, 1947. The investment in
cludes land and buildings, imple
ments and machinery — including
motor trucks and automobiles—and
livestock, including poultry and ani
mals on fur farms.
The estimated value of farm capi
tal in 1946 was almost ‘seven per
cent higher than the value for 1945,
but nearly 78 per cent of it can be
attributed to the enhanced value of
land and buildings. Higher prices
for livestock, which more than offset
a decrease in numbers, and substan
tial purchase of farm implements
during 1945 increased the value of
both these components of farm cap
ital in 1946.
FALL CARE OF PASTURES
Before the coming winter is far
advanced, says John D. MacLeod,
Director of the Crops, Seeds and
Weeds Branch, Ontario Department
of Agriculture, farmers faced with
feed shortages will be wishing for
the day when tne herd once more
goes out to pasture. Extra rye, or
pastures now may result in earlier
grazing next spr.ny, he adds.
A small acreage of fall rve, cr
fall wheat, seeded now for pasture
next spring, ca i be used very early,
while other pastures are firming up.
A good top growth on pastures in U.e
fall is from three to six inches, will
give added winter protection and
earlier spring grazing. A fall har
rowing stimulates growth, distributes
fertility and increases palatability.
A light top dressing with manure in
the fall is good insurance against
winter killing and makes for earlier
spring growth. Surface drainage this
fall will help the field to firm earlier
next spring. An early spring top
’dressing with a nitrogen fertilizer
will speed up growth.
Since this year it is imperative to
stretch the pasture season at both
ends, on account of the feed grain
shortage, these are timely hints for
Ontario farmers to follow.

FURNITURE
O ^fT^O IO ^S productive capacity is the measure of her future
prosperity. To assure this Province a prominent place in domestic and
foreign trade markets, skilled hands are needed. In training schools
and ON THE JOB, veterans are being taught how to make furniture—
urgently needed for homes that must be built here and abroad. They
know that higher wages, job security and better working conditions are
within easier reach of those who have mastered individual skills.
Through plans sponsored by the Department of Veterans* Affairs and
other agencies, hundreds of veterans have been given basic training in
various trades. They will become more proficient with further experience
and training ON THE JOB. Taught to use their bands in fashioning
wood products and in upholstering and finishing furniture, these craftsmen
of the future will have a share in Ontario’s progress—an important part
to play in her industrial development.

FAO WARNED ON
ON FOREIGN EXCHANGE
At the recent Conference of the
Food and Agriculture Organization
of the United Nations (FAO) held in
Geneva, Switzerland, Dr. J. F. Booth,
head of the Division of Economics,
Dominion Department of Agricul
ture, one of the Canadian delegates,
warned the Conference that the pro
blem of foreign exchange and its
effect upon exporting countries was
not a matter of concern only for
the distant future.
Lack of exchange—purchasing
power fibroad—by countries which
normally import fodstuffs was al
ready inducing farmers in export
producing countries to contemplate
reducing production because of the
fear of surpluses arising which could
not be marketed. While this fear of
surpluses had been foreseen as a
fairly distant problem, it had not
been expected that it would develop
until agricultural production in Euro
pean and other wartom countries
was back at least to pre-war capa
city. The lack of foreign purchasing
power by importing countries had
made the problem an immediate one.
Thus unless drastic steps are tak
en to enable importing nations to
purchase foodstuffs, the people of
I many countries will be unble to sup
plement their meagre home-grown
supplies while producers in export
ing countries will be unable to mar
ket their products abroad.

PREVENT SPREAD
A POULTRY DISEASES
To prevent the spreading of com
municable diseases, an Order in
Council has been issued, requiring
that every owner or operator of a
poultry processing plant, or poultry
killing plant, or the management of
establishments where live poultry are
received for any purpose, must clean
and disinfect all such crates received
at the plants. After each use as a
live-poultry crate, and before leav
ing the plant, all crates must be
thoroughly cleaned and dipped for
at least two minutes in a solution of
two percent formalin, or other
approved disinfectant. Unless this is
done, the crates must not be removed
from the plant. The expression
“Live-poultry Crate”, means any
crate, box, receptable or con
tainer used for conveying or
transporting live poultry. The words
“Approved Disinfectant” means a
pest control, product that is regis
tered under the Pest Control Pro
ducts Act and has a strenth of not

expects at least a 20 per cent, saving
in gasoline as a result of the system.

GAS TURBINES FOR
U. K. INDUSTRY
Gas turbines of immense power
operating generating stations, ships
and locomotives will be the outcome
of research now being carried out in
Britain. This was disclosed by Dr.
Roxbee Cox to press correspondents
who were visiting th’e National Gas
Turbine Establishment at Whetstone,
Leicester, of which he is director.
The work of the establishment ranges
from aircraft jet ongines to static
compressors yielding 40,000 h.p. Its
aim is to increase the knowledge of
the gas turbine in all its applications
and it was demonstrated that, al
though many technical ^problems re
main to be solved, the way is clear
for the application of these power
planta to ships, locomotives and in
dustry in general.
