Booklet Will Tell of Ingersoll's Advantages Poster-shows were a popular type of stage entertainment in Ingersoll at one time. Choruses and tableaus extolled and displayed the many products* manufactured in the town. One in particular, consisted of a group of children, each one holding some locally-manufactured article, and singing a song, composed by the late Colonel Hegler, set to the tune of “Maryland” which ran: “We are a lot of little girls, dressed in our best and all in curls. Our eyes are bright, our hands are full, of goods all made in Ingersoll.” Indicat­ ing the variety of the town’s manufactures at that time, and the extent of their distribution, the song went on: “There’s some to ,eat, and some to wear, They’re sold abroad; sold everywhere. So, when to buy these goods you go, just tell them that we told you so.” Enumerating some of them, the young choristers sang: “We manufacture milk and cheese; we can our pumpkins, corn and peas. We kill our hogs, oh, how they squeal! we grind our oats to make oatmeal. We make pianos, reapers, mowers; we have the swellest kind of stores. So when, etc. All of which indicates that the town's indus­ tries have changed considerably through the years. There are no poster shows now to advertise them. Even at the Ingersoll Fair, only a feeble attempt is made to do so. But the Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce reco­ gnizes the need for advertising, and to fill that need, material is being collected for a booklet, to set forth the many advantages offered by the town, some of which are: Excellent rail and highway facilities; proximity to one of Canada’s richest agricultural districts; healthy climate, low insur­ ance rates, first-class educational facilities; good shops, all of which are important considerations to business executives when selecting a location, but which, unfortunately have been outweighed during recent years, by the lack of sewerage, a service which is all-important in any present-day munici­ pality. Now with a vision that sees beyond the tempor­ ary disorder on our streets, the C. of C. is preparing for the day when they can offer to all I enquirers information that they will be proud to impart—^like the little girls in the chorus.

J J E K A L B ^ ’ makes SEED CORN Their Busine Middle of the Road Is Good For People As Well As For Cattle At a recent* meeting of Holstein-Friesian cattle breeders, G. M. Clemons, secretary-manager of the Holstein-Friesian Association of Canada, cautioned against what he called cattle-breeding extremes”, stating that “the history of cattle shows that breeding for some^ extreme-characteristic leads eventually to a deterioration in the stock.” The third generation of his family to fill the position of secretary of the association, Mr. Clemons is well-qualified to advise on the subject. He advises the middle of the road policy in raising cattle. Probably a philosophy useful in cattle-raising could be advantageously applied in many other ways—especially if it calls for the middle of the road policyA The animal that quietly chews its quid, day in and day out, faithfully performing its function, in relation to the extent to which Nature nourishes it; flicking the flies off its back with the tail Nature gave it for the purpose, and not complaining because the performance must be repeated times without number—such an ani­ mal must provide food for considerable philoso­ phizing. It is well to heed the advice of the philos­ opher in that case. The world has passed through a grilling exper­ ience in recent years. Many lessons are to, be learned therefrom, even though it would be the height of folly to adopt wartime conditions as a way of life. War is not an expression of sanity, whereas peacetime living ought to be. Regimen­ tation, price controls, controlled output have their place in a war-time economy. But in peacetime, as in cattle-raising, by trudging along the middle of the road, we are more likely to reach the desired end of comfort and contentment. The Missionary Auxiliary of St. Paul’s Church held their regular monthly meeting on Tuesday afternoon last. The following officers were re- eleted for the the ensuing year: Hon.

C^nltj a museum piece Individual Effort Could Dispose of ' Garbage Problem For some time,, past, it has been evident that garbage disposal'conditions in Ingersoll have not been satisfactory. Closing the rat-infested dump on Mutual street did not put an end to the trouble, for the rats could easily find plenty of food on private pijemises—which they apparently do. Health measures are futile, as long as decayed food is allowed to/lie about uncovered, as it does in too many case* around town. Municipal gar­ bage collection appears to offer the most satisfac­ tory solution, when co-operation from house­ holders is lacking. But unfortunately at the pres­ ent time, it would be more costly than the com­ munity could afford. However, there is nothing to prevent cleanliness on the part of individuals themselves. It is they who will benefit by careful disposal of their garbage. So it would be nice if the citizens of Ingersoll would recognize their rights and priv­ ileges as individuals, and put an end to the garbage disposal problem without the necessity of com­ pulsion beyond i that exerted by their own sense «f decency. J. Verne Buchanan was elected as mayor of Ingersoll for the year 1937 at the polls on Mon­ day, defeating 'his two opponents, Fred H. Adams and James E. Fergusson. Mr. Buchanan is a former mayor, having served the town as chief magistrate in 1917-18-19. Miss Jean Coventry, Bell street, was hostess to the Women’s Music Club at their regular meeting last Wednesday. The president, Mrs. George Beck, was in charge. During the afternoon, Miss Monica Harris, bride-elect, was presented .with a cup and saucer from the club, Mrs. W. J. Tune makingthe presentation. Surplus In Treasury Gives Assurance An acceptable Christmas gift has been presented to Ingersoll citizens in the form of a snrplus of approximately three thousand dollars in the town’s treasury. With high taxes facing the ratepayers for some time to come, it is reassuring to know that those entrusted with managing the town's affair* are not engaged in a spending orgy, but The regular meeting of the Sacred Heart Young People was held on Monday evening with Rev. Father McMahon addressing the gathering. An interesting part of the meeting was an amateur program with the following taking part: Anthony McCowell, Mary Bole, Tom Comiskey, Mary Fos­ ter, Margaret Tailant, Douglas Copeland, Ed. Haduck, Joseph Foster, Bill Maurice, Ralph John­ son, Marjorie Haffey. The Collegiate Rugby Dance was held on Fri­ day night in the town hall, with Ken Steele and his orchestra providing the music. Prizes were won in the “Mystery Man's Dance,” by Margaret Hargan and Brock Owen; “Birthday Illumination”, by Margaret Johnson and Mr. N. S. Harper and in the “Lucky Spot”, by Margaret Counter and Sidney Bagnall. The floor show consisted of num­ bers by the original I.C.I. quartette. Jack May­ berry, Howard Carr, Alex. Pearson and Bill Rogers, accompanied at the piano by Jack Morgan and a display of tap dancing by Elizabeth Mason.

It is indeed a wonderful help to elderly people in these difficult times, and she and all the friends I know who received theae gifts, have appreciated them very much. Hoping you will spend a very happy Christmas and again thanking you, I remain, yours sincerely, F. Saunders. Dear Madame—This is a short note to thank you most sincerely for the splendid parcel I have received through the mayor of the borough— Southgate. All the contents are in perfect condition. I am an old-age pensioner, living alone, and all the goods will be a most welcome addi­ tion to my rations, which are very meagre, but even so, better than many a poor creature gets on the Continent. The kindly thought •which has prompted you to do such a gracious act, will be remembered gratefully for all time. With renewed thanks, Yours most sincerely, (Mrs.) Alice J. Taylor.

Here you see a Buick, unchallenged style leader of the year, bared to its bones, to show the meticulouscare for your comfort and safety that goes along with beauty and thrilling power. Here are not just one of two "comfort features"— but no less than nine im|»ortant steps Buick engi­ neers take to make your ride smoother, yourhandling surer, your car-control more perfect. Begin with the tires, to most folks the starting point of riding comfort. Buick's are standard-size casings, available any­ where. But here—and only here—they're mounted on Safety-Ride rims which are 20« to 33* wider than usual. This gives softness by permitting 5-pound-/«uwtire pressures. It also makes sidewalls vertical, rather than rounded—hence giving* bracing action against side thrust. And it puts more rubber on the road— more traction under all circumstances and measurably greater mileage.Look at front-end "geometry"—wheels carefully and precisely angled to "give" with the bumps, bank on curves, provide sure control with least effort. Notice springs — all four of them gentle coils of tempered steel that give each wheel its own cushionof the softest type known.

She a.<k» him to drive out andhave Sunday dinner with them. "No, keeping her away fromme. I’m sure she doesn't carefor me and I want to avoid ascene with her. Richard is veryfond of Dr. and Mrs. Farquharand I’m sure they’ve no idea ofthe way Naomi is acting. In themorning when she’s teaching thechildren I’m in the laboratory, but I’m afraid a whole day ofNaomi and Richard fawning overeach other is more than I cantake."To her surprise, Cliff frowned."I think you’re being unfair.From what I can gather, the in­fatuation is all on Naomi's side.But if it will mean being withyouyJanet, I’ll come, of course." When she returned, it u-as tofind Mr. Prentice's tonneav.edtown car at the entrance to Oak­hart. As she walked by it shewas startled to see a thin, white-,faced, little boy peering from 1 the back seat. He was almostlost in the heavy folds of asteamer rug.■■Well,” she said, "who are you?""Jonathan Prentice,” he saidseriously."You are? Is Mr. Prenticeyour grandfather?" Before the child could reply,the liveried chauffeur turnedstiffly in the front scat. "Mr.Prentice is Jonathan's father,ma'am."

"Is that all? Maybe I could fixit up with Dad, Cliff—he couldhave you transferred to anotherdepartment."His face reddened. "No, thanks, Naomi, this is my ownprivate battle.”"But it’s silly to waste yourlife doing something you don’tlike." "Maybe it’s silly," Richardsaid, "but a great many peopledo it. Seriously though, Bronson,why don’t you have a talk withWindell?” "I had one talk with him be­fore you left the hospital—thatwas enough.”His eyes blazcdj andLhe beganto concentrate on Mrs. Miles’ ap­ ple pie. Janet knew he was re­membering the scene in the op­ slam.Janet's heart began to poundwith fear.They stood there in the halllistening, the three of them —Janet, Naomi and Cliff.Abby came out of the playroomand hurried past them; they werehardly aware of her. Janet’spulse was throbbing in herthroat; she put out her hand^"Cliff, I’m afraid, I'm afflM "Easy, Janet," His fingerstightened on her arm. He pickedup his coat. "I’ll go outside andsee if I can help." He lookedaway from her to hide the un­ easy premonition inthis eyes.They followed him uncertainlyinto the kitchen. One of the smallleaded panes was lying in frag­ments on the floor and alreadysnorw was drifting through thegaping hole. Mrs. Miles came in from thecottage, her gray hair so pow­dered with flakes that it re­sembled an old-fashioned wig. "Ithought I heard a shot,” she said, and stared at them, a ques­tion in her eyes. ’I hate to break up what I can tell is a highly scientific dis­cussion, Naomi, but we'll have to be leaving soon." aware.She ignored him and stared atthe child. He was very delicatein appearance, his skin so thinand clear that the veins at his temples were a deep blue. Hecouldn’t be more than nine, yetMr. Prentice was easily sixty.It was all very strange, some­how Janet had never thought of Mr. Prpntice as having a familyof any sort.As she turned, Richard andthe lawyer appeared at the frontdoor. Mr. Prentice hurried over to the car and stared anxiouslyat the child. "Not too cold, areyou, son?”The youngster shot him a wansmile and shook his head.“I didn’t even know you hada child, Mr. Prentice,” Janetsaid."Yes,” he said, "Jonathan Ismy entire family — he's all Ihave." Snow began to fall before noonon Sunday. Not the gentle, slowfall of a temporary, quick-melt­ing coating, but the thick, swirl­ ing hard-driven kind that swift­ly formed a new layer over thetwo-foot-deep 'crust surroundingOakhart.Janet wondered, even hoped, that it might keep Naomi in thecity—but promptly at twelve she and Cliff arrived. Naomi was ex­cited. "Isn't this weather thrilling! If CJiff hadn’t had chains we’dnever have marie it—we passeddozens of stalled cars.”It was plain’that Cliff didn’tshare her enthusiasm, he even seemed worried, an unusualemotion for him. "If it keeps up we may haveto ski back," he said half jok­ingly."We can always put you up,"Janet said politely, though thethought of Naomi and Cliff beingsnowbound at Oakhart appalledher. Naomi smiled a little secretly,but didn't reply; instead shespun ajround in a circle until her1 dark hair stood out like a shim­s' mering fan."Cliff, come and see my school­room—it’s about the prettiestone a teacher could have."Cliff followed her obediently into the playroom."How is your work going at the Hospital?" Richard said."Much aaaiust nur will. I’m ae­ rating room and was still halfblaming Richard for the senior surgeon's criticism which fol­lowed. Hastily her mind soughtto introduce a new topic of con­versation.They sat around the den after dinner, desultorily making con­versation. Several times Janetsaw Cliff's eyes stray to the win­ dows and the ominously grayskies and dizzily whirling snow.She knew he longed to leave andwas only staying because of hispromise to her. Once when she caught him he flushed painfullyand stared across the room towhere Naomi was discussing oneof her new theories about childpschology with Richard. At last he got to his feet. "I hate to break up what I cantell is a highly scientific discus­ sion, Naomi, but we’ll have to beleaving soon and I’d like to seeDr. Eynon’s laboratory beforewe go." Richard seemed surprised andpleased and the two disappearedinto the lab. Janet felt uneasy. What was Cliff up to now? He had shownno interest in the alterations atOakhart when she had wantedto show them to him a monthor so ago, yet he looked very de­ termined as Richard led him outof the room. She and Naomi didn't attemptto talk. There was a little leftto say when they saw each othernearly] every morning. Theyeach iclectecl a magazine andbegan to read.Fifteen minutes later the twomen returned. There were grimwhite lines around Richard’smouth and Cliff looked sullen. "Come on, Naomi, we’ve gotto be leaving — it’s been verynice, Janet,”"I’m glad you came, Cliff,make It again soon . . ."Her voice trailed off—a queer,muffled explosion had come fromsomewhere outside. They allstood silent, waiting . . ,It came again, louder, andthis time it was followed by thebrittle tinkle of breaking glassin the kitchen. Richard’s face turned red withanger, his mouth tightened."Someone,” he muttered, "seemsto have forgotten that the hunt­ing season is over.” He dashed into the kitchenand they heard the back duvr "Someone broke me winaow."*Jar.ct explained. “Richard hasgone outside to investigate. Mrs.Miles, please go in and stay withthe children — we’ll be rightback.”Richard and Abby had preced­ed them, their floundering steps making a blurred, indistinct pat­tern in the new layer of snow. ’The trail led around the house,away from the kitchen.They trudged along in single file and just as they turned thecomer near the children’s sunroom, another shot rang out. Itwas followed by a shout fromRichard, muffled and angry . . . “Put down that gun, you fool!You’re going to do some realdamage.” It relieved Janet so to hearhis voice that she almost smiled.The man must be crazy, shethought. What would anyone beshooting at in a snowstorm? Then a new fear seized her—not crazy,but foolish, childish! Not re­sponsible. . . ; "Richard!Richard!”shecalledfrantically, but, the storm dead­ened her words as though a blanket had been tossed over herhead. They almost collided with Ab­by. She was standing stolidly un­der an apple tree and slowly be­ ginning to look like one of thechildren’s snow statues; herhomely face was red with cold.It’s my poor brother. William,"she said through stiffening lips. Their eyes followed her pointingfinger.Richard was standing about forty yards away, and beyondhim, a large figure in hip bootsand a well-padded hunting jack­et was menacingly waving arifle. His wild, dark face was not threatening, however; instead,he scowled and smiled alternate­ly like a child guarding a newtoy. “You leave me alone!" heshouted, “this is my gun.""You’re going to hurt some­ one," Richard said gently.You ve already broken a win­dow." Abby moved forward a fewstops. "Let mo talk to him.
