And so in our lives today”, said the speaker, “we feel we are so few in number against the great forces of evil arrayed against us, but no mat­ ter how small is our gifts or talents God will bless it and make it worthy of His service.” The charge to the new minister was given by Rev.

It was pointed out that a num­ ber of people have home interests which seem somewhat unimportant to themselves, but which, if display­ ed, would create considerable inter­ est in others, and it was urged upon all hobbyists that they do not place themselves n the position of feeling that they “have/better at home.” While numerous entries have been received, those in charge have an­ nounced that there is still room for others and ask that entries be made as early as possible to insure that the exhibits may be displayed to the greatest advantage. The next meeting for all interested in this project will be held on Tues­ day evening, November 4, at 8 o’clock at the “Y.” I. C. I.

Members of the Lions Club*heard a very interesting historical address on “What the Cheese Industry Means to Ingersoll”, by Secretary Victor Brooks, at their meeting on Monday evening at St Charles Coffee Shop, During the evening, Mrs. A. G. Murray sang two groups of solos which were highly appreciated. Pre­ sident Joe Churchouse inducted Bruce Denstedt as a member of the club. In his address, Mr. Brooks out­ lined the history of cheese making. The cheddar cheese, the best known and most largely produced, derives its name from the village of Ched­ dar, in Somersetshire. The first cheese factory in Canada was opened by Harvey Farrington in Norwich Township, Oxford County in 1864. The following year four more were opened in the county to be followed by a factory in Que­ bec. By 1867 there were 200 cheese factories in Ontario and the industry spread to other provinces. In 1893, the Guelph Dairy School was opened and a Canadian cheese won over others at the World’s Fair, while in 1897 the first refrigeration space was provided in Atlantic steamships. The industry is now regarded as a highly necessary business and gov­ ernment has made compulsory grad­ ing of cheese for export. Prior to 1860, the industry was practically non-existent here, apart rom the small amounts made by farmers for their own use. When the factory system was introduced by Farrington, the whole industry expanded. In the years before the factory system was in operation in Oxford, a farmer named Hiram Ranney, of Salford, hauled his milk to Hamilton by horse drawn wagon. Large cheese were produced as a matter of interest and Mr. Ranney made one of 1200 lbs. in his farm dairy. Andes Smith made one of 4000 lbs. at his factory near Nor­ wich, which was exhibited at the New York Fair, and James Ireland man­ ufactured 35 large cheese in the Gal­ loway factory, 11 of them weighing 5500 lbs., and the remainder 1000 lbs. and under. In the spring of 1866, the Ingersoll Cheese Company, after due consid­ eration, set about making.arrange­ ments to manufacture the largest cheese the world ever saw. The first'business was to build a house 16 x 18 feet expressly for It, and after getting the hoop and platform ready, the operation of collecting the milk and the curd was commenced. The milk was collected at the West Oxford, Salford and Ingersoll factor­ ies, and was at these three factories made and pressed into small cneese about 70 lbs. each. By the direction and management of Robt. Facey, these small cheese were all taken to the Ingersoll factory and milled over and put into (the large hoop taking care that nothing but first quality of curd was put in the large hoop. 35 tons of milk were used in making the curd for this 3*4 ton cheese. It was 6 ft. 10 in. in diameter "and 3 ft. high. An unusual excitement was creat­ ed on the afternoon of Sept. 6th, 1866, by the removal of the Mam­ moth Cheese mounted on a car, drawn by 12 powerful gray horses and preceded by the Ingersoll Band, passed through the streets of Ing­ ersoll on its way to the great Western Railway Station to be ship­ ped to the New York State Fair at Saratoga. It was also shown at Buf­ falo, Toronto, Hamilton and London. After being shown in these five places it was sold to a Liverpool, England firm and arrived there in good condition. A larger cheese was made at Perth in 1893, weighing 22,000 lbs. or 11 tons. This cheese measured 28 ft in circumference by 6 ft, in height and was the largest cheese made in the world. The total quantity of milk used in making this cheese was 207,- 200 lbs. Equal for one day to the milk from 10,000 cows. It was en­ cased in the mould of steel in which it was pressed. After being shown at the World’s Fair at Chicago it was sold to Sir Thomas Lipton and taken to England. Following the address, a fine show­ ing of the manufacture of cheese was thrown on the screen by John Hunsberger, of the William Stone Sons Limited. Harrielsville Junior Farmers SOFTBALL LEAGUE Sponsor Fine Flowing Match ELECT 1948 OFFICERS Keen interest is being shown in the forthcoming musical concert to be held at the St. James’ Parish Hall this (Thursday) evening.

Entrusted with the sale of these poppies arid wreaths made by disabled veterans at Vetcraft shops in Montreal and Toronto, the Canadian Le;gion will have thousands of volunteer workers on the streets soliciting sales. In 1946 these workers sold more than 4,500,000 popies and this year the total is expected to be increased. The monies received from the sale of the poppies and wreaths is used solely to take care of indigent veterans, widows and orphans of deceased veterans. No profit whatsoever is kept aside for any other phase of Legion work. All veterans benefit by the sales whether they are Legion members or not. In 1946 the Legion Dominion Service Bureau obtained $246,710.24 in retroactive pensions alone, representing 1181 “lost cases” that had in the majority applied to the government for a pension and beeh turned down. Exceeding last year’s fig­ ures the Bureau, to the end of September this year, has obtained $292,067.48 in retroactive pen­ sions for 1152 applicants. When figured in a sum total for the rest of the applicants’ lives this will run into millions of dollars.

Doless McRabbit, our authority on the control and management of women, hails Princess Eliz­ abeth’s decision as a sign of. the return of domes­ tic bliss and tranquility in the British Common­ wealth, with some reservations regarding Canada. “North American women whose appeaser hus­ bands provide them with'more luxury and receive less obedience than any other husbands on earth, are the unhappiest women in the world,’’ said Do­ less as he warmed to his theme. ‘\Most of the women on this continent have too much to enjoy and too little to do. They have got completely out of control, and ninety per cent of the husbands don’t know how to keep them in line. “How to manage a wife, for her own good, and the good of the family, ought to be taught in spec­ ial classes for boys in schools, as it is no longer exemplified in the homes. “All over North America men are shining their own shoes, chopping their own kindling, carrying in the water and wood, and many of them are get­ ting their own breakfasts. , “Only primitive men permit matriarchy. Where men progress they rule. It is time to re-assert male dominance for the benefit of the family and society. Besides, it’s a lot easier for a man when his wife does as she’s told. Mine docs,” Doless said as he went out.—By John Atkins. October’s Pockets In October the man of the temperate zone can put his coat on again and get some work done. During the warmer weather he has been frustrated by the lack of pockets. His shirt has only one pocket—two at the most—and there are only four or five trouser pockets. No man can hope to carry much equipment in so few pockets. His pipe is almost always missing and has to be hunted down before"hny work can be done. Then his tobacco pouch is missing. No! here it is in this hip pocket. Well, where are those spectacles? Left them in the car—probably along with the key ring and the card case and that list of things to get at the hardware store. In October a man can cany his working kit •with him. October brings out the waistcoat, which has four pockets and even in rare specimens of waistcoats a fifth pocket on the inside, an excell­ ent place to carry money and lose it forever. Then there is the jacket. A jacket is not reliable in summer. It is eventually remembered to be hanging on the back of a| chair in another room or in the garden at Aunt jsadie’s, October's jacket is much more likely to bo nearby when a man needs to go through its pockets. Besides there are the/topcoat pockets for really bulky pieces of luggage. In October, contentedly laden with his belong­ ings, a man becomes almost as efficient as a wo­ man. Women scorn pockets. They carry handbags and assert that men look funny scratching-through twenty and more pockets for the theatre tickets. Women prefer to lose everything in one place.— The Printed Word. Work and Thrive • ’ To be healthy and happy, people must be fully occupied. The Department of National Health and Welfare emphasizes this fact in urging every­ one to take up bobbies to occupy their spare time, if their normal work does not absorb them en­ tirely. “Man may still, in rare instances, earn hia bread by the sweat of his brow, but actually onlya small percentage of people use their full physical and mental capacities in their daily labour,” says a departmental bulletin.

Still we are not as sure of ourselves—-nor are others so sure of us. Think back to the days of the sickle, the scythe and the cradle—to the days of small industries,' when demand was limited and prices low. Compare these conditions with the life of to-day and ask yourself if, in the things which matter, we are not Letter, happier, richer than we were 1 think we* are—do you? If we are not the reason rests with us and not .with the conditions which surround us. It took real genius to invent the knotter of a binder. A man named Appleby did the trick.

Bowman in Bowman Co., and will carry on the business at the corner of Thames and Charles streets, having-associated with him E. H. Albrough and A. P. Barker. It’s hard to say just when man came to this earth. This we do know: In the early stages of his existence he was a stupid fellow, he didn’t amount to much. In time he devel­ oped a brain, then he made better weapons—that may or may not prove his intelligence! In time pew implements made work easier, a steel plow was better than a bent stick. Nearly all agricultural progress took place in the last hundred years. Men now living remember those simple farm implements, the cradle and the scythe. In fact a few years ago there was a cradle on almost every farm in the Province of On­ tario. Now cradles are museum pieces, they serve as relics of a past when men, especially fanners, earned their bread by the sweat of theirbacks. The reaper started it all. Its first existence is recorded at Staunton, Virginia, U.S.A., in July, 1831. This was the first break from the primitive farm implements. Progress was slow. It was nine years after its first dem­ onstration that young Cyrus Hall McCormick made his first sale. It consisted of two reapers for which he received $100 each. In 1847 he built his first factory in Chicago. He employed 33 men the first year and turned out 500 reapers. From then on progress was rapid. Production in 1870 was up to 10,000 machines. This was the beginning of new life for the farmer—progress came from industry. Industry made progress possible. Agriculture became a part of the machine age. Agriculture ceased to be a heavy back-breaking task. Although the farmer still finds it difficult to take two weeks holiday with pay, his lot is, in many ways more comfortable than that of the average industrial worker. While this process has been going on, the farmer's home has been transformed. Electric power is now available on many farms. We are blessed, in Canada, with abundance •of water power. The cost lies in distribution. As time goes on the farm is modernized—so too is the farm home. Why was the progress of agricul­ ture so long delayed. The task may have been more difficult. It may have been easier to invent a steam engine than a milking machine. Other indus­ tries had more capital. This gave them greater opportunities to search for better ways of doing things.

JOSEPH J, JOHNSONCLAIMED BY DEATHOne of Ingersoll’s oldest residents,Joseph J. Johnson, passed away onWednesday evening of last week at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Geo. Tarrant, Cathcart street. In his 94th year, he had been in failing health for the past six weeks. Mr. Johnson was born in Lanca­ shire, England, but had come to Can­ ada many years ago. For a long period he was engaged in farming in the Ingersoll district and for the past 80 yean since his retirement he had resided in Ingersoll. A wide circle of friends is left both in the town and in the district to mourn his passing. Mr. Johnson is survived by three sons, Edward, Cannon and George, and one daughter, Mrs. George Tar­ rant, all of Ingersoll, and one brother, George Johnson, of Rola, North Dakota. Rev. C. D. Daniel of Trinity Uni­ ted Church, conducted the funeral service which was held on Saturday afternoon at 1.30 o’clock, from the Preston T. Walker Funeral Home. The many lovely flowers and the large attendance at the service were testimony to the esteem in which Mr. Johnson was held. The pallbearers were all grandsons of the deceased, Patrick, Ralph, William, Howard, Charles and Lloyd Johnson, and the afloWers bearers, also grandsons were Robert, Joseph, Roy and Leslie John­ son.

Mr. Hartlgan dies and sanetla called upon to be present at thereadme of Mr Hartlcan s wiU. at Oak­hart. Mr. Hartlgan * country estate. ” ’To my grandnephew, Wil-Ham Hartigan, I leave a similarannuity of four hundred dollarsper month. As he is incompe­tent to manage his own affairs,this sum will compensate anyperson or institution caring for him.“’To Mr. and Mrs. CalebMiles, I leave one hundred dol­lars per month and the privilegeof occupying the caretaker’s cot­tage at Oakhart so long as bothor one of them shall live, in re­turn for which they are expectedto care for the grounds of Oak­hart and perform such dutiesas they have in the past." ‘To Janet Harris, my devotednurse and the only person whohas treated me humanely in thepast year, I leave my estate ofOakhart, including the land, thehouse and the contents thereof.With this I leave fifteen thou­sand dollars to be spent on tax­es and upkeep during, the next ten years. If, at the end of thattime, she has not grown to love Oakhart as I have loved it, she isfree to sell it, but I hope and be­lieve she will not." 'The remainder of my es­tate, consisting of stocks, bondsand other securities, I wish to be divided equally among the fol­lowing charities’.”Mr. Prentice’s dry voice wenton naming the various organiza­tions and the enormous sums willed them, but his words bare­ly penetrated the ears of those at the table.Janet was numb with surprise.Her mind whirled, the tableseemed to tilt precariously, un­ lit her arm was sharply pinched.She turned to meet Cliff’s laugh­ing eyes. "Congratulations.” hewhispered. "You’re an heiress,Janet.” His words seemed unreal. Theywere like the sound coming froma talking picture, amusing, en­ tertaining, but momentary, hav­ing no deeper meaning. She smiled at him uncertainly. Mr. Prentice was studying thefaces around the table. As hereached Janet she thought his eyes held a bitter humor. “Well,Miss Harris, I hope you arepleasantly surprised by your good fortune."“It’s so unexpected I don’tknow what to think.”Mrs. Gremont stood up again; the muscles at the comers ofher mouth twitched spasmodi­cally. “Are you trying to make us believe that you didn’t knowabout this, Miss Harris?" Janet flushed. "I can assureyou it comes as a complete sur­prise.”"My granduncle must have been ill when he made out theterms of his will. After all, he died two daysJ later—I’m surehe didn’t know what he waswriting.” Abigail Hartigan put out a re­straining hand. "Don’t make ascene, Irene; what do you care, you never liked Oakhart any­way.”Irene Gremont turned on herangrily.. “Abby, it isn’t right forit to be turned over to a strang­er while I get nothing.” “But you don’t need money—Uncle knew that.""You seem to miss the pointentirely. You’re my sister andhe left you something, didn'the?” “Yes, but there’s a great dif­ ference in our circumstances.I must say I am very grateful to him.” “He was out of his mind! I’llhave the will broken!"Mr. Prentice eyed her dis­tastefully. ”I’ve had much ex­perience in these matters, Mrs.Gremont, and I can assure youthat the will is in order. Dr.Bronson here was one of the witnesses. He can give you hisopinion on Mr. Hartigan's men­tal condition.” Cliff stood i'o. “By every medi­cal stand Mr. Hartigan wastn absolute command of his fac- ulties at the time of writing thewin.” “Naturally you would aaythat.”Cliff was astounded. "Why?""It’s quite obvious that you’reinterested in the girl — MisaWhat’s-her-name,” she gesturedto Janet. “Naturally you'd stick together."Cliff’s lips set in a thin,straight line. Janet knew it wastaking all his self-control notto teU Mrs. Gremont what he thought of her.“Miss Harris and I are notengaged. Like you, Mrs. Gre­mont. I am fortunate in havingan outside income, but, unlikeyou, accumulating wealth is notmy object in life."Irene Gremont turned Uvidwith anger. "I will not stay here and be insulted! Come, Justine. . . Gwendolyn!”Her‘taloned hand swept her purse from the table as she leftthe room. When the others had gone,Janet was Still white with dis­gust.“I’m afraid we’ve made anenemy, Cliff.” He took her hand. "It was my Cliff needed something to wake him up?"By the way, Cliff, you nevertold me if Dr. Winded congratu­lated you on the operation?"“Well — it wasn’t quite whatI’d expected, Janet. He saidthe work was professional, buthe didn't think my attitude wasserious enough.” "Perhaps he saw you wink at me.”"He couldn’t have,” he laugh­ed. "I winked on the side awayfrom him. Oh, Windell is a regu­ lar old kill-joy—he doesn’t haveany fun himself and he doesn'twant anyone else to.”"Well, a hospital isn’t exactlya place for fun. Richard said that a doctor always has a dead­ly opponent at his elbow."He was staring at her pecu­liarly, "Richard?""Dr. Eynon." "I didn't know you called himRichard.”“I didn’t until recently. We had dinner together last Mon­day, and the formality of Miss Harris and Dr. Eynon was toomuch for us.""Well, that’s enlightening news! So you're dating Eynon CUff took Janet's hand and they walked down to Clear Biver. fault, Janet—1 should have Kept quiet; she rubbed me the wrongway."Mr. Prentice, fastening hisbrief case smiled thinly. "There’ssomething about the reading ofa will that releases inhibitionsto the surface. I’ve seen it hap­pen often."“But Mrs. Gremopt sounded,well—almost threatening,” Jan­et said, “Perhapfe she intendsfighting the will.”"She has no grounds. MissHarris. Mr. Hartigan knew whathe was doing. I disapproved when I read it, but now I’m in­clined to feel he was justified.” From J. D. Prentice this washigh praise.For a- moment the lawyerlooked almost friendly. "Well, Imust be leaving now. I’ll let you know when you can take posses­sion — there'll be papers to sign,of course. Mrs. Miles has thekeys if you care to look around." To the right of the house wasa formal garden kept by Mr. Miles, but to the left the twistedoak gave way to an orchard ex­tending to the river. Here theair was saturated with the hon­eyed fragrance of pedt, apple and cherry and throBoing withthe hum of bees.Cliff took Janet's hand andthey walked down the lane oftrees to Clear River. The watersparkled for a width of a hun­dred feet before waving fields of grain took over. "What will you do with it all?”“I dont know, I’m still in adaze.”He slipped his arm around herwaist drawing her closer to him. "It’s too fine a day to worry­look at me, Lovely."She did so, staring deep intohis dark boyish eyes."Janet. I’m in love with you—I think that entitles me to akiss.” She had known Cliff for over ayear; she had kissed him be­fore. His lips upon hers now were warm and seeking, but hesighed when he released her. . . ."Janet, you kiss me exactlyas though I were a small boywho had bumped his head andhad to be soothed.” f e laughed, “it’s just yourimagination, Cliff." But he hadcome so close to guessing. Whydid she feel almost maternalwith him? Was it because as Richard Eynon had said that now—tne wonder man!" “Cliff, don't be childish.”"Where did you go?” K“The Maison Mourney.”“Lord, that dingy, dull oldhouse—not even an orchestra! What did you do all evening?”“We talked."“Talked! What about?""Oh, please, Cliff, it wasn’tthat important.”He asked her no more ques­tions, but the afternoon was spoiled. In spite of all her ef­forts at conversation, even flat­tery in small doses, his mouthdrooped petulantly and his eyeswere distrustful. As they drove back to the hos­pital, Cliff was silent. Janet’sirritation increased. He had beenhelpful today; she hadn’t wantedto face those strangers aloneand Cliff defended her, but this unfounded jealousy was absurd. “I jflon’t suppose you and Ey­non /got around to discussingme/did you?" he said sudden­ ly.“You, Cliff? Why, no, wedidn’t.""I thought you might have per­suaded him to ?all off his repri­mand. It seems strange hehasn’t said anything about the operation—I know he and Win­dell had their heads together.”"Perhaps he felt he wasn’t ex­perienced or old enough to criti­cize you, Cliff." “He’s thirty-four—eight yearsolder than I am, and he’s been a resident physician at Cosmo­politan Hospital for three years.”"Well, if you asked him he'dprobably tell you—he might justhappen to approve of your per­formance." *She bit back the retort thatrose to her lips. She certainly.had no intention of repeating herconversation with Richard Ey­ non. It was evident that Dr. Win­dell had tried to make matters clear and Cliff had failed to un­derstand.She knew he had planned tak­ ing her out for dinner tonight,but he rather sullenly reminded her, she pleaded a headache andthey separated at the hospitalsteps. Janet walked to the balustradeand stared off over the city."Tired, Janet?"She jerked in surprise andspun around. "Richard! I didn't see you there."

Bank of Montreal Completes 30 Years on Second Century of Operation. Ontario’s oldest banking instit­ ution will be 130 years old next Monday. Oldest in Canada, as'well as in Ontario, the Bank of Montreal, although organized in Quebec, had two branches in this province within eight months of its foundation—one at York and another at Kingston— and, today, the bank has substan­ tially more offices in Ontario than in any other province of the Dominion. It was in 1817 that the first regular stage-coach run began be­ tween Kingston and York. That same historic year saw the founding of Canada’s first permanent bank— the B. of M., as millions of Can­ adians now call it The date was November 3, and thus next Monday Will mark the bank’s 130th anni­ versary. In all the intervening years the Bank of Montreal has opened for business on every single banking day—an impressive proof of how closely and continuously the bank’s work has been woven into the vast progress of the country since col­ onial days. PIONEER DAYS A good account of early times has come down from James Croilf a British settler who later became a Bank of Montreal shareholder for the extraordinary span of 60 years. “When I began farming in On­ tario,” Mr. Croil’s recollections be­ gin, “we had neither mowing nor reaping nor threshing machines, and the women had no sewing machines- the postage on a letter from Ontario to Halifax was two shillings three­ pence . . . There was no money in circulation in those days . . . Every­ thing was done by barter . . Mr. Croil wrote those words refer­ ring to Canadian conditions at a time a good deal later in the nineteenth century than 1817. It can be im­ agined how difficult life was in that even more primitive day. When the Montreal Bank, as it was then known, first opened its doors, the population of Canada' was just about half a million. Trade was carried on principally by, barter, and to a lesser extent by the use of Am­ erican, British, French, Spanish and Portuguese money. CANADA’S FIRST MONEY At the very outset the young bank issued its own bills in small denomin­ ations and, later, copper tokens. This money, indeed, was the first real Canadian currency. The innovation did much to stabilize and speed up commerce and industry, which had hitherto been subject to the varying rates of exchange of the several cur­ rencies in use. This was but one aspect of the bank's major contribution to the Canadian economy. That conaribu- tion amounted to nothing less than ending the chaos in which business was transacted and organizing the first domestic financial system of Canada. So well did the bank succeed that this system has since evolved without ever losing its stabilty, no matter how critical the times or, how rapid the country’s growth. Thus, through more than a century and a quarter, the Canadian economy has survived two major wars and several minor ones, as well as periodic depressions and civil unrest. It has expanded many times since 1817 and has won world recognition for its rare com­ bination of dynamic growth and steadiness)------------------/—-------------------------- Much of the nation’s economic strength derives from another prin­ ciple which the bank introduced in Canada. This was the branch-banking system. Within a fortnight of the opening of the first office in Mon­ treal, an agency was started in Quebec City. In the following year the Bank of Montreal opened a branch at York—the Queen City’s first bank—and another at the garri­ son town of Kingston. SPREADING BRANCHES As ths years passed, the bank spread its branches all over Canada. During the early 1840’s, it opened branches at Bytown, now Ottawa, at St. Thomas, Belleville, St. Cathar­ ines, Brockville, Hamilton and Ron­ don. In the opening of the West which the Bank of Montreal facilitated by placing its resources behind Canda’s first transcontinental railway, the Canadian Pacific, its branches went hand in hand with the pioneers and were established at key posits from coast to coast at an early tfate. The bank contributed vitally to many phases of home-front activity in both world wars. In peace as well as war, the strength, swift progress and high standard of living of the young country can be attributed in a unique degree to the policies of its oldest bank. And the Bank of Mon­ treal has grown with the country, i The bank began with a capital of $250,000 and a staff of seven. At the present time its capital and reserves amount to $18,000,000. Its resources are close to the two-billion mark, and its staff numbers more than 8,000. It has over 500 branches, including offices in Newfoundland, New York, London, Chicago and San Francisco. Its depositors number more than 1,500,000—about one out of every five bank depositors in the nation. Thus, the bank that nine colonial merchants started in such a modest way 130 years ago, has become, indeed, an integral part of the life of the nation. LOCAL BRANCH HAS LONG HISTORY For nearly 80 of its 130 years, the tBank of Montreal has been repre- F sented here in Ingersoll. Established^ less than a year after Confederation, on March 1, 1868, the history of the bank is closely interwoven with that of this town. OriginaUy a branch of the Merchants Bnnl^of Canada, long ago merged with the Bank of Montreal, the office opened when Ingersoll was becoming famous as the headquarters of Canada’s cheese industry. Established in premises now known as the St. Charles Hotel, the office two years later moved to the Hugill Building on Thames street south. Then, in 1907, in order to keep pace with the town’s rapid growth, and to meet the ever-increasing demands for banking facilities, the bank built its present quarters on the corner of Charles and Thames streets./ A branch of the Bank was opened at Beachville in October, 1914, and has been feerving the residents of that district continuously since that date. In charge of the local office since May of this year, Cedric E. Shaw succeeded Alexander Yule, manager here for 17 years, following Mr. Yule’s retirement on pension from the Bank’s service. A popular and well-known figure here, Mr. Yule has been away on an extended holiday since retiring last May, but is returning to Ingersoll for the winter. SCHOOL BOARD ADVISEDON NEW HIGH SCHOOL AREA At the regular meeting of the Board of Education held on Tuesday evening of last week, report of the Principals of the Public Schools and Collegiate Institute, gave details of activities in their schools. Principal Murray stated that good use is being made of the projector and films on safety methods have been shown re­ cently. He also reported that the safety patrol of students is proving very satisfactory. Principal Herbert of the Colleg­ iate Institute spoke in terms of praise of the recent concert pul on under auspices of the school and the Department of Education and highly commended the splendid assistance and co-operation being given by Miss Betty Crawford, librarian of the public library, in her addresses to pupils at the Collegiate on current fiction and suitable reading material. Trustees Grimes announced that the annual Commencement Exer­ cises will be held for the Collegiate Institute on November 7th, and for the Public and Separate Schools on Nov. 14th. Prise Hate are being pre­pared and in line with previousyears. A letter from the Department of I' I' ion gave the board the fol­ lowing information, regarding the new High School area: “Since the former Ingersoll High School district was dissolved and the new larger district established, this means that the present Board of Education will dissolve as of December 31, 1947. The new public school board should be elected at the time of your regu­ lar municipal elections this fall. “At the last regular meeting in 1947 of the appointing bodies, the high school board members should be appointed. The town of Ingersoll shall appoint three members, one of whom will lytire each year . The municipal councils in the county shall each appoint one member for a term of two years. The county council, the Ingersoll Public School Board and the Ingersoll Separate School Board may appoint one mem­ ber for a term of one year. r "The present board will continue in office and function until Dec. 31, 1947. The new boards will function as of January 1, 1947.

The building on the right was the first head office of the bank, which served as headquarters for the Bank of Montreal from 1819 to 1848. This was the first building especially constructed for banking purposes in Canada. Today a post office stands on this site, while adjacent to it, facing historic Place d’Armes, is situated the bank’s present head office building, completed and occupied in 1848.

Sleeping arrangements had been arranged for those who wished to stay over night, the ladies being■ taken to local farm homes and the men sleeping on straw mattresses in the^camp. Mr. M. A.
