This is good news for our over-worked and short- handed farmers, who while forced to meet heavy taxation, have been unable to bring their land up to full productivity because of the shortage of help. During the early years of the last century, when Canadian agriculture was in its infancy, it used to be said that Scots were the best settlers for virgin land; that their strong physiques, as well as their quality of perseverance, enabled them to do the heavy work of tree-felling and preparing the land for cultivation. But that once the land was cleared, the English and Irish settlers made the best cultivators. So the Canadian government of that time encouraged settlers from the British Isles to migrate to this country. They were sub­ sidized for doing so. In most cases they did a fine job. The tale of the conversion of this land from forest to cultivated fields is a dramatic one. Foot by foot the soil that had produced giant trees was made to produce food. Farther west the pioneers travelled, always breaking new soil, until Canada came to be known as the granary of the world. Then something happened, in which white collars seemed to figure. Many of the men and women who had every reason to be proud of themselves and of their jobs, did not pass on to their descendants a love for the soil nor recognition of the dignity in its cultiva­ tion which is absolutely essential in successful agriculture. Something which is Acquired by them­ selves—not through legislation. The result is well known. It has occasionally been called progress. Now literally, the fields are awaiting harvesters and this time they are to come from Holland. If they practice agriculture and dairying in this coun­ try, as efficiently as they have done in their own country, Canada will be the richer for their coming and they themselves will have everything to gain.

Rowland, King Hiram street, with a good attendance, the group leader, Mrs. A. Pittock, presiding. The meet­ ing opened wlih the hymn, "0. Little Town of Bethlehem", and Mrs. S. Pittock led in prayer. The Scripture reading was given by Mrs. C. Jeffery, followed by the hymn, "Hark the Herald Angels Sing." The secre­ tary’s report was given by Mrs. B. Hunt, and that of the treasurer, by Mrs.Wm. Butt Also at this time Mrs. Butt gave a detailed report of the proceeds of the bazaar and tea held recently by the Group. The success of the bazaar far exceeded the ex­ pectations of the Group and they wish to thank all those who patron­ ized this affair. It was decided to dispense with the December meeting, but all the members are urged to attend the Women’s Association meeting to be held in the church parlours on Dec. 9th, at which time there will be a gift exchange. Mrs. M. Sexsmith was appointed to take charge of the sale of metal sponges, which were distributed to the members. This part of the meet­ ing was closed with the hymn, "Joy to the World”, and the Mizpah bene­ diction in unison. A committee composed of Mrs. W. Lee, Mrs. L. Ranger, and Mrs. S. Whiteford, provided the following programme: Readings, by Mrs. S. Pittock, Mrs. F. Dodd, Mrs. H. A. Sivyer, Mrs. C. Smith; guitar select­ ions, Mrs. S. Whiteford. Mrs. L. Ran­ ger conducted an interesting contest, prizes going to Mrs. B. Hunt and Mrs. F. Dodd. Mrs. Rowland and her assistant* then served refreshments and a so­ cial period was enjoyed. The January meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. A. Pittock on the 27th. Hardships Imposed By Tariff Might Not Last Long Reactions to the recent tariff changes have been varied. Some pepole do not like them, and openly declare so. Others while not liking them, realize they are necessary, and that we must therefore make the best of a bad job and try to have the unpleasantness as short-lived as possible; which can be done if all will co-operate. Austerity as planned for Canada is vastly dif­ ferent from that which has been endured in the < British Isles for the past eight years. Here the situation might improve greatly within a matter of months. Spring comes early in British Columbia. While the East is still blanketed in snow in February, outdoor gardening can be done at the West Coast. With some organizing, the fruit and vegetable growers of B. C. should be able to supply the East with what has heretofore come from California and Texas. The rail journey would not be any longer, or only -Slightly so. Added to this is the fact that winter having come, spring will not be so very far behind. Everyone here who can do so, will probably garden with a will next year, in order to produce their own vegetables. Perhaps we shall miss the imported goods this winter. But it is not nearly time yet for us to feel ; sorry for ourselves. The regular meeting of the Ingersoll Collegiate) Institute Literary Society was held in the assemby room on Friday afternoon last with the president, Eugene Enright in charge. Mr. J. JRMcLeod, chairman of the Board of Education, was present and gave a short talk to the students.

YOU ALWAYS GET New Opportunities Offered By Occupations Nights Square pegs in round holes cause a good deal of trouble in life. Sometimes a young person to satisfy an ambitious parent or out of regard for tradition, is shunted into a career for which they are temper­ amentally unsuited, and for which they could never (be properly fitted. The result is that they go through life never doing their best, and deriving little or no pleasure from their work. It is then they are apt to become money-minded, looking forward to pay dajy for their only source of satisfaction. Labour unrest and strikes can spring from such a situation, whereas, if a girl or boy is able to learn from those qualified to give information on the subject, of the best outlet for their particular apti-4 tude, a life of contentment and usefulness is more likely to be theirs. It is with this object in view that Occupations K Nights are being introduced to Secondary Schools throughout the Province. Students and parents gain first-hand information from men and women who ' ' have succeeded in their respective careers, and they are given an opportunity to present their own prob- | Jems for discussion. Such a method of offering assistance can be of inestimable value to young people who with their parents, are largely responsible for its success,J , ----.---- Lessons To Be Learned From \ Our Torn-up I Street* The first season's work on Ingersoll’s new sew­ erage system is drawing to a close. Before long, weather conditions will call a halt to most outdoor work for the next few months. Torn-up streets, piles of earth, fearsome looking•nd sounding machines, make everyone realize the magnitude of tlje undertaking. None of those who advocated it, thought for a minute that it would be simple. They only differed from its oppon­ ent* in that they felt that it must be faced, and •Iso in their faith in the town’* ability to shoulder the burden. There are i probably few if any, living now, who opposed the project some yean ago when it was suggested. If they could see the present upheaval they would surely wish that it had been done P * , I x ' J ....■ J , y n.1.1. i I The Baptist Ladies’ Auxiliary met at the home of Mrs. B.

WALDIEPresident Said in part: The year 1947 ha* been for Cana­dian business a year of accomplishment,great activity, and crisis. Adjustmentfrom war work to peacetime occupa­tions has been completed though theheritage of the War will affect us for Business has been phenomenallyactive. Our gross national production is now at a record rate of around$12 billion. Industrial production ismore than 10 per cent above the highlevel of last year. Employment has never been higher nor unemploymentlower. Consumer buying, as measured by the value of retail sales, ha* beenrunning at higher levels this year thanin 1946. When, however, allowanceis made for the strong rise in retail prices, the volume of retail sales hasapparently been declining over recentmonths. To the spiral race between pricesand wages there is no end but disaster.It is elementary but important thatwhat is happening in Canada, as in other countries, is that we are tryingto crowd too much investment, toomuch consumption and too much export into the present. We are trying to rebuild inventories,repair war damage, and execute all the projects deferred in the war years.If we continue to attempt it we arebound to fail, and we may createserious damage. Unless were areunexpectedly great increases® outputper man-hour, we cannot p®duce allthat we are asking to con^ne, and build all the houses and fac®^ « ««•»do all the re-equipping of thSwe have planned, and at the ■ export enough to pay for ofland implement our underflthe United Kingdom and qflcountries. Virtually all oB from the United States havflgreatly. To meet the foreign excl**which has been rolling tfl!past fifteen months, the CMhas recently announced itfl Changes will no doubt bfl and modifications made buflresolve this crisis more, salemerge from it more quickly il----------understanding and willing co-operationon the part of the consumer and industry in carrying out the program. Unfavourable weather during thegrowing season resulted in lower farmproduction than in 1946. Heavy salesduring the first half of the year raisedthe farmer’s cash income about 16.5 per cent higher than it was in thefirst half of 1946. Owing to the reduction in the wheat crop, little more than 200 millionbushels will be available for exportand of this, 160 million bushels are earmarked for the United Kingdom.Poor crops and transportation diffi­culties make it unlikely that enoughcoarse grain will be moved from thePrairies to Eastern Canada to meetthe requirements of farmers specializingin livestock. This i* giving renewed force to the rise in food prices. Despite higher farm income thedrift of workers out of agricultural into other industpes continues, andnotwithstanding increased mechaniza­tion there still exists a definite shortage of farming personnel. The trade agreements do not containeverything that we might desire, but they do indicate that the UnitedStates contemplates taking a differentdirection in its tariff policy than it took after the first World War. The possibility of expanding tradeoffers to Canadian industry an oppor­ tunity to use its wartime experiencein efficient production and to test itsgreater competence in the markets of the world. Let us seize vigorously theopportunities which are offered. MR. W. G.

Plan To Conserve United States Dollars The Hon. Douglas Abbott, Min­ ister of Finance, recently announced the establishment of a separate div­ ision of his department which will deal specifically with the new import restrictions, applied as part of Can­ ada’s emergency plan to conserve United States dollars. K. W. Taylor, Assistant Deputy Minister of the department, is head­ ing the new division which is receiv­ ing applications for quotas from Can­ adian firms on those items on which partial restrictions have been im­ posed and is also dealing with border­ line cases where there are some un­ usual circumstances. In announcing the dollar-saving plan on November 17th, Mr. Abbott said that importation of some con­ sumer goods would be prohibited and that imports of other consumer goods would be restricted by the imposition of quotas. In the case of capital goods, possible restrictions depend on the recommendation of the Minister of Reconstruction and Supply. The list of items to be prohibited includes such good as jewellery, candy, novelties, typewriters, radios, refrigerators, washing machines and furniture. The import of motor ve­ hicles will also be prohibited tempor­ arily with the expectation of later placing this item on a quota basis. Goods which are to be restricted by import quotas include, in the fruit and vegetable category, such items as oranges, grapefruit, lemons, fruit juices , potatoes, apples and on­ ions. However, imports of almost all out-of-season fresh fruits and vegetables, and almost all kinds of canned goods are to be prohibited. No restrictions are applied to ban­ anas, raisins, figs and prunes. In textiles, no restrictions are placed on raw materials or yarns but almost all other textiles are to be placed on a quota basis. A third group of goods, including all leath­ ers, all kinds of footwear, gloves, leather garments and luggage, and a fourth group of miscellaneous items, such as clocks and watches, cutlery, games, toys and sporting goods, and smokers' supplies, will also be under quota.

When I lived at Grandma’s place we always had a bowl of soup before dinner was ser­ ved: it was ladled from a stock pot on the stove. To-day there is u great variety of soups from which we can choose one for the particular occas­ ion. If we wish the soup merely to create interest in the dinner, we will select one of the clear soups, either a bouillon or consomme. To discrim- intae between the latter you .will re member that the clear soup made from fresh lean beef is bouillon, while consomme, also a clear soup, is a combination of meats, fresh or cooked. On the other band, if we wish the soup to be the main item we will select one of the thick veg­ etable, fish or meat soups. A soup helps to make use of extra piece of bread toasted, diced or broken. Other varieties of accom- phniement are: salty crackers, tiny cornmeal muffins, French sticks, cheese bites and celery biscuits. By the way, to freshen bread and crack­ ers, soak in salted water. When they are puffed up, transfer to cookie sheet with egg lifter and bake in oven for 5 to 10 minutes. 8 carrots in strips1 bay leafPaprikaYou may also add:1-2 cup rice, pearl barley, or noodles, 1 cup tomatoes. Wipe the meat, cut the lean part into cubes. Cover with cold water, heat slowly to the simmering point Remove the scum as it forms. After simmering for 2 hours, add the veg­ etables and seasonings.| Simmer for at least 1 hour longer. We like our fair share of meat and vegetables. You may prefer to strain them out, for a clear, sparkling bouillon. TAKE A TIP CHARLES A. CRAIGPASSES IN HOSPITALThe death of Charles A. Craig, 47Charles street east, occurred onWednesday morning, December 3rd,at Alexandra Hospital, following aperiod of ill health, extending oyerfive years, and serious illness duringthe past three weeks.' Born on February, 12, 1873, inEast Zorra, Mr. Craig was widelyknown and esteemed having been engaged as a thresher for 34 years.Left to mourn his passing are his widow, formerly Hazel Couch; onedaughter, Mrs. Dorothy Aquin, Ing­ersoll and one brother Fred, in Lon­ don.The funeral will be held on Fridayafternoon from the Preston T.Walker Funeral Home where service will be held at 2 o’clock. 1. Vegetable water poured down the sink means food value wasted. Canned soups take on new zest with the addition of vegetable water, but remember to go easy on the salt if the vegetable has been salted. 2. If you have oversalted the soup, there is something you can do about it. Slice a raw potato and add it to the soup. Remove potato before serving. 3. The nutritive value of the out­ side leaves of cabbage is good even tough they are not attractive. Wash thoroughly and add to soup stock for flavour. Remove before serving. 4. A dash of chili sauce and a bouillon cube added to blended soups or dehydrated noodles soups makes u richer food. 5. Simmer soup. Do not boil.

He suggests that•he forget all about Dr. Eynon and theclinic and marry him. But Janetwasn't ready to give an answer. Baekat the hospital, old Nr. Hartlgun,whose death was expected almost anyday, telte Janet ho wants to make outhis will and urges her to round upthree witnesses for him. Nr. Hartlgandies and Janet is called upon to bepresent at the reading of Mr. Hartl-gan's will, at Oakhart, Mr. Hartlgan'scountry estate. She is elated at bear­ing she Is to Inherit Oakhart. Dr.Eynon proposes that they turn Oak­hart into a home for convalescent chil­dren and Janet agrees. She tells Cliffthat she Is going to marry Dr. Eynonand of their plans for Oakhart. Cliff,believing Dr. Eynon mercenary, ex­presses blttemesa at Janet's weddingplans. Abigail Hartlgan Joined themto aid with the children. To add toJanet's problems. Naomi Farquahar,who was In love with Dr. Eynon. came•ut to the home to assist, and afterher summer's work there, decided notto return to college, but tuy on atthe home. So had they all—Abby, the Mileses and herself, but on Rich­ard had fallen the responsibilityof establishing its medical repu­ tation. His perception had helpedbuild that. The case of Rodney Becker because of its rarity andhis parent’s social position hadreceived much publicity in news­papers all over the country.Richard had been quite correctin diagnosing the trouble not asrheumatic fever but as a ductthat normally closed in baby­ hood, but had failed in Rodney’scase; thereby putting a strainon the heart. The little boy had been flownto another city where an expertsurgeon had performed the oper­ ation. In a few weeks Rodneywould be able to run and play as other children; thereby re­leasing the terrible inner tensionthat Janet had feared might af­ fect him psychologically. After that, applications hadcome pouring in. Richard groan­ed as he wrote letters of refusal. "Janet, what am I going to tellthese distracted parents?” hesaid bitterly. "That we have only ten beds—nb more room?” "No more /noney, no more hands,” she added. "Their letters are so pitiful—if they were here I’m sure they’d be on their knees.” "I know how you feel. Rich­ard, but if we take any morethan ten patients they won’t re­ ceive proper care.”"You’re right, of course. But it gives me a wrench to think ofall these children. Lord, whyaren’t there more homes in Oak­hart—or more money so that we could build an addition.” The countryside was buriedunder two feet of firmly packed snow. Dozens of childishly con­structed forts and snow menstood guard under the gnarled scraggly apple trees and thetracks of sleds criss-crossed a gentle slope beyond the house.Almost a month had passedsince Christmas.It was good hearing theirvoices again, their gossip aboutthe big hospital, their teasing remarks. With Richard theywere friendly^ but deferential asthough his eight or nine years more experience entitled him to a place apart.After a time Abby brought in a tray of turkey sandwichesand was introduced all around. They liked the brusk, out-spok­en, moon-faced woman immedi­ately and were callfag her “Aunt Abby” before they;left.But the moment.with Richardthat Janet had hrfped for. was shattered. By the1 time the last"Merry Christmas” had floated across the cold air, they were both too tired to say anythingmore than goodnight."Janet, I want to talk to you.”She looked up from the analysisshe was making, suddenly anx­ ious. Richard's voice sounded too serious."What is it, Richard?” "I've been thinking of all theletters I've received since therecovery of little Rodney Becker. All those children that aren’t’getting the proper care—I can’tyget it off my mind.”"I know, it is upsetting. Butthe world is full of unfortunate children, Richard—we can’t help them alL""No, but we can help more than we are.” "How?”"By building a wing onto Oak­ hart.” "A wing I But, Richard, that takes money.”"I know it does—a good dealof it. It would put Oakhart on the basis of a regular hospital;it would mean about thirty pa­ tients instead of ten, additionalnurses, servants and cooks.”"Exactly. How would we fi­nance it?”He leaned forward resting hislarge hand on the white enamelexamination table. His eyes searched her face, but seemeduncertain of what they found."We could mortgage Oakhart."“Then you don't like the idea?”Deep lines of disappointmentformed around his mouth. "Yes, I do like the idea, but "But what? You must have some objection.”"I don’t think Mr. Hartiganwould like the idea of a mort­ gage.”His hands dropped to his sides."Well, it’s your property.” Scarlet crept over her face,lightening her hair to pale gold. “Don’t say that Richard. Wewent into this as a partnership.” The case of Rodney Becker, because of its rarity and hisparents* social position, had received much publicity in news­papers all ovex the country. "Of course, my dear, but le­ gally Oakhart is yours.”“And yours. In this state halfof what a wife has is her hus­ band’s.” She stared at him curi­ously. “Didn’t you know that,Richard?” His face had paled. “My Lord,what must they be saying aboutme at the hospital! And you, Janet, what must you havethought of me?”His embarrassment amused her. “I married you, didn’t I?”“Yes . . /•. he said slowly, "and I’m beginning to wonderwhy.”Because I love you and believein you, she wanted to say. “Be­ cause I thought we’d make agood team,” was what came out. “How much would it cost, Rich­ard?”"About fifteen thousand." "I’ll go in to see Mr. Prentice.He may think of something.” Janet entered Mr. Prentice’sluxurious offices with a feeling of trepidation."Ah, Mrs. Eynon—what can I do for you?”She remained standing, facinghim across a formidable ex­ panse of polished mahogany deskand a set of very dry-lookinglaw books."Mr. Prentice, how muchwould you say Oakhart wasworth?”He frowned. "About sixtythousand (dollars, including the land. But by the terms of Mr.Hartigan’s will it can’t be put up for sale for ten years.”"I realize that, but I was won­dering If it would be considereda good risk from the viewpointof a bank?” His thin, bloodless lips tight­ened into an even thinner line..."Are you in debt, Mrs. Ey­ non?”His eyes seemed to say, I knew Hartigan was making amistake when be left his placeto this incompetent young wo­ man. It’s easy to see she hasn’ta brain in her head. “Not yet—” Janet said slowly."Not yet?” Just what do youmean by that?”"My husband has a dream,Mr. Prentice—I’d like to make that dream come true if it’s pos­sible.”He stared at her as though she had suddenly announced that the world was coming to an end on a certain date, then motionedh|pr to a chair. As she talked, J. D. Prentice seemed to relax. Some of thelines in his thin face softened and his eyes were less severe.Janet realized suddenly that shewas talking to a man who was under a great strain of somesort. "I can’t alter the will’ he said now, "even though it’s possibleSean Hartigan might have ap­proved your plan. There’s no way you can borrow on the taxmoney either, I’m afraid.” "I won’t put a mortgage on Oakhart,” she said firmly. "Thatseems to strike at the very coreof the estate itself. I’m sure Mr. Hartigan wouldn’t like that.” He looked mildly pleased at that remark. "Suppose I driveout today and see Oakhart—Imay be able to suggest some­ thing.” The white, myriad-windowedfacade of Cosmopolitan H^pital loomed before Janet. She felt a strange nostalgic lump swell in her throat. It was absurd, shetold herself, to become senti­ mental about this great edificethat was running efficiently as awell-oiled machine, vet it was here that she had come to knowRichard and here that CliffBronson had more or less gone , out of her life. She moved down the corridorto bis office and knocked on the inner door. His "Come in” wasbored. . —1 "Janet!” ' * "In person—not a ghost.” _ "I’ve been so used to havingschool children troop in here allmorning that I thought you wereanother. I almost said, ’Say Ah’.” "If it’ll make you feel moreprofessional I’ll go through themotions,” "Haven’t you been doing anyoperations, Cliff?” i "Only a few since you left.They handed me a large slice ofyour , husband’s practice. Janet you don’t know how I hate himfor leaving here, aside from the fact that he took you with him.”"Your chance will come, Cliff.”“It had better come soon. I found a gray hair today—it wasa terrific shock, I can tell you.”He laughed at himself, then in­ stantly sobered. “How are thingswith you, Janet?”"About the same. There wasan evening when I thought some­thing might happen to change them, but Naomi appeared witha carload of internes, and thatended it.”“She’s an attractive infant,”remarked Cliff, “but I’m afraid she rather fancies herself as afemme fatale.”"In a way, Naomi is my rea­ son for coming in to see you.”“Oh, oh.” His eyes twinkled. "Do you need a reason, Janet? ”I’m afraid so, now. Anyway,she is the reason this time.”“Do I smell a plot?” "Not much of one. She’s in­vited herself to spend Sundaywith us. Dr. and Mrs. Farqubar are going to be out of town. Iwondered if you wouldn't drive her out and have Sunday din­ner with us?” "What am I supposed to bedoing — keeping Naomi awayfrom Richard?” (TO BE CONTINUED) Imperial BankAnnual Meeting An all-time high in deposits, a large increase in current loans, and a modest increase in profits, were features of the financial statement of Imperial Bank of Canada for the year ending October 31, 1947, pre­ sented to shareholders at the annual meeting in Toronto on November 26th, 1947. In his annual address to share­ holders, Mr. R. S. Waldie, President, noted the advanced rate of indus­ trialization in Canada, with exports at record peacetime levels and an ex­ traordinarily high rate of private investment. There has been a de­ cline in Federal government expen­ ditures not offset by the increased expenditures by provinces and mun­ icipalities. Consumer buying, in spite of rising incomes, has shown a resistance to higher prices, which with the progressive removals of price controls and subsidies, acceler­ ation in demand and the needs of Europe have risen rapidly. “What is happening in Canada, as in other countries,” he said, “is that we are trying to crowd too much invest­ ment, consumption and export into the present.” If this attempt were continued, we were bound to fail. “The difficulty of accomplishing our programs has been increased by the inadequate output per worker,” said Mr. Waldie. “Any change which increases average output will reduce the difficulty: Increase in the number of workers by immigration would also relieve the pressure. But relief must come by postponement of part of our program. If there is unwilling­ ness to postpone, it will be enforced by rising prices and costs. Both the economy and the individual will ben­ efit if those in position to do so post­ pone their projects and their buying to a most convenient season. The prudent businessman, he continued, should survey his inventory position carefully and make conservative de­ cisions. Referring to government measure­ ments to meet the foreign exchange crisis, Mr. Waldie said: "The gov­ ernment has chosen a course of act­ ion designed to limit imports, dampen down and postpone capital and con­ sumer buying while at the same time offering encouragement to gold pro­ ducers and obtaining a credit for emergency use.. Mr. Waldie noted the encourage­ ment being given to gold mines with a low profit margin but sug­ gested that any kind of incentive bonus must be supplemented by an aggressive campaign for obtaining miners; hard rock miners among European displaced persons should be brought to Canada with dispatch and in numbers. Mr. Waldie noted approvingly re­ cent provincial government measures to conserve forest resources, and re­ ferred to the definite shortage in farm personnel. Immigrants are badly needed to operate the exten­ sive Canadian economy to its best advantage,” he said, "If we. are to minimize the restrictive side of the government’s program, additional workers must be obtained particu­ larly for our export industries.” At the same time, employers, govern­ ment or private, must broaden the opportunities open to Canadians. “We can best help ourselves andtile peoples of the world.” said Mr. More, “by c-operating loyally with the government and by working harder, producing more, and reduc­ ing costs to enable us to complete effectively and hold our place in the markets of the world that are open to us.” St. James’ Choir Hold Social Hour At the close <?f the service of evensong at St. James* Anglican Churqh on Sunday, a very enjoyable social hour was spent when the choir members gathered in the ladies* assembly room to cordially wel­ come Mr. G. Strickland Thomp­ son, A.V.C3I., their new organist and choirmaster, and Mrs. Thompson. Delicious refreshments were served, from a prettily appointed table cov- cred with a lace cloth and centred with a charming arrangement, de­ picting the Christmas season. Mrs. C. J. Queen presided over the tea cups, and the social conveners, Misses Edyth Wood and Winnifred Webb were assisted by other mem­ bers of the choir in serving the guests. The rector, Rev. Carman J. Queen addressed the gathering and called upon the choir president, William •Lambert, who, on behalf of the choir welcomed Mr. and Mrs. Thompson into their midst. The rector's warden, Mr. C. K. Dykeman also gave a brief address as did Mr. C. W. Riley and Mr. Harold Smith. Mr. Thompson, on behalf of Mrs. Thompson and himself, made a most fitting reply, expressing thanks for the many kind remarks, with the wish for the hearty co-operation of the choir members.

Addressing B of M shareholders at their 130 annual meeting, Mr. Spin­ ney also pleaded for an immediate, selective immigration program and a reduction in government spending as possible aids to a more stable econ­ omy. Emphasizing the danger of the be­ lief held by some economic theorists that, by monetary manipulation and state control, a community could in­ definitely consume more than it is able or willing to produce, Mr. Spin­ ney said that now, “even the most ardent proponent of compensatory public spending would agree that we have arrived at one of those points ia • the economic cycle where old-fash­ ioned virtues of frugality are thor­ oughly consistent with the dictates of the most advanced economic theory. “The course now indicated is the difficult and more courageous route of remorseless elimination of luxuries of governmental expenditure which represent an unnecessary demand on the taxpayer and on our productive resources," Mr. Spinney said. Referring to the pressent high prices, Mr. Spinney said that recent developments emphasized for all in­ fluential groups in the community the urgent need of a sharpened sense of responsibility for the im­ plications of their own policies in relation to the behaviour of pgjges and living costs. “The upthrust in prices and costs”, he said, “is now everybody’s concern. It affects the housewife, ruefully contemplating the family budget. It enormously complicates the problem of providing urgently needed housing at prices that people can afford to pay. It reduces the real value of all accumulated savings in monetary form, eating away at the hard-won rewards of foresight and thrift.” While admitting that Canadians have been spared the hardships of violent inflation, Mr. Spinney said, “we have experienced enough of the consequences of a gradual deprecia­ tion of the internal purchasing power of our dollar to yearn for the advan­ tages of a dependable standard of value in terms of a stable level of prices.” Mr. Spinney then turned to a dis- cussioruof Canada’s unbalanced trad­ ing reAtionships, and suggested that the nreasures recently taken to meet the problem were a challenge to the good sense of Canadians. In view of what many other nations were suf­ fering, he remarked that the present restrictions scarcely deserved the dignity of the title “austerity”’. For Canadians to achieve their full destiny, he felt that a greater population was essential. Saying that countless people on the other side of the Atlantic regarded this country as a land of golden opportunity, Mr. Spinney said, “Canadians are at this moment helping to support, at a low level of existence, many of these people who could be and should be carving out a fuller life for themsel­ ves in this country in which there are fhr too many empty spaces. If ever .there was a time when Canada should 'press forward with an immigration program, that time is now,” he added. In his report, B. C. Gardner, gen­ eral manager, announced a new high of 1,600,000 B of M depositors. As further evidence of post-war activity, he also revealed that the bank had opened 28 branches and sub-agencies within the last year. There had been a relatively greater increase in bank staff, rising from 8,400 in 1946 to 8,900 at the end of the current fiscal year. A Mr. Gardner pointed out that Can­ ada's foreign trade reached a peace­ time high during the past year. The bank’s policy of working with long- established native banks in foreign markets had, he felt, proved helpful in providing customers with unex­ celled facilities in conducting their export and import trade. Pointing out that borrowing for capital purposes had increased Mr. Gardner emphasized the importance of maintaining in corporate struct- uers a reasonable relationship be­ tween equity capital and borrowed money. This he said, applied espec­ ially to concerns that had been ex­ panding rapidly and whose equity investment had become proportion­ ately small in relation to higher turnover and increased fixed assets. Many Attended I.C.I.Occupations Night Parents and students in large num­ bers, were present at the Ingersoll Collegiate Institute, Friday evening for Occupations Night. Sponsored by the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club, the Board of Education and the School Guidance Department, it was the first time such a gathering had been held here. Choosing the subjects in which they were most interested, the audi­ ence gathered in the various class­ rooms where talks on office work, (clerical and secretarial), chemistry, teaching law, baking, farming, motor mechanics, drafting, pharmacy, nur­ sing, hairdressing, machinist, dieti­ tian, veterinary, laboratory, techni­ cian, librarian, accounting, were given by George Lockhart, Allan Horton, Donald 'Mackenzie, L. B. Hyde, R. G. Start, Bernie Zurbrigg, Byron Jenvey, S. Shelton, H. Bower, J. E. Gayfer, Mrs. R. L. Smith, C. J. Hines, J. Knapp, Dr. Clifford Barker, R. Karn, Miss C. Crawford, F. G. Rich. The program was divided into two half-hour periods of nine subjects each, enabling people to hear two speakers discuss their respective occupations. Following each talk questions pertaining to the work were answered. On the blackboard of each classroom were diagrams outlin­ ing the various courses and theirpurpose.Prior to the lectures, short ad­dresses were given over the public address system by Principal J. C. Herbert, who explained the object of Occupations Night; J. J. McLeod, chairman of the Guidance Committee of the Kiwanis Club; and Currie Wil­ son, in charge of the Guidance De­ partment at the I. C.

The bazaar consisted of beauti­ fully decorated tables showing a colorful display of aprons, quilts, luncheon sets, crochet sets, pot hol­ ders, etc. Even the juniors werethrilled to see so many different* stuffed animals, and knitted doll clothes. A tempting display of home baking was soon disposed of.
