Looking Back— In the — Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario 48 YEARS AGO Thursday, January 18th, 1900 PERSONALS " MY WEEK'— by — R. J, Deachman THURSDAY, JANUARY 22nd, 1948 Veterans and D.V.A. Co-operate In Doing Good Job One chapter in Canada's recovery from war is recorded in a news despatch of a report issued by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs, revealing that up to the end of 1947, nearly one million veterans had been discharged. A large number of returned men and women were so situated and so constituted, that it was not necessary for them to seek assistance in re-habilitation. For many thous­ ands of others, such was not the case, and it was only right and wise that they should receive spec­ ial consideration in order ’that they might be able to fit into the post-war pattern of life. Otherwise the valuable service they had already rendered, as well as the country’s obligation to them, would have been incomplete. As the report shows, because of various forms of government assistance, many thousands of ex- service personnel have been established as home­ owners, business men, students and workers The whole report must convey a sense>of satisfaction to those assisted as well as to those assisting in their rehabilitation. That the veteran is finding his place in civilian life after years of regimented living, is evident by the fact that although 167,767 have received out- of-work allowances, since the D.V.A. was set in operation, only about 1,800 were drawing this type of assistance at the year's end. Those receiving educational assistance are giv­ ing a very good account of themselves, with failures amounting to only 13 per cent. If they continue to do as well, the picture for themselves and for the country too, should be bright. The work of adjustment has not been an altogether easy one, but it appears that everything possible has been done to consider the case of veterans. There is still much to be done, and it will be con­ tinued as long as is necessary. There will be some failures to make good but many of those would probably have come under any circumstances. However, as citizens of a democratic country, all have at least had an opportunity. Mr. and Mrs. John Sibbin left on Monday for a visit in Florida. Mrs. E. Hegler has returned home from visiting with friends in Avon. "All our $12 Beaver and Chinchilla Curl Cloth Overcoats, $10.00”—Jas. P.

The ladies of the King Street Church will hold an entertainment on Tuesday evening, 23rd inst., in the church arlours in the character of a conver­ sation and concert. The program will include choir music on the grafaphone, music by the choir, Miss Keating, Miss McKim, 'Miss Edith Wood and others. At a senior hockey game played last week, the East end defeated the West end 5-4. East end was captained by Geo. Bell; West end by P. My­ ers. At the dose of this game, the juniors came on the ice, the East end captained by Gerald White and the West end by W. Frezelle. The West end won 2-0. White rushed the West’s goal several times but could not score. Mr. J. Bobier, North Oxford, escaped serious injury while driving a load of wood in town this week. While on the bridge one of the front stakes gave way letting the wood down and Mr. Bobier with it. Fortunately he lit on the tongue between the horses and thus saved from being dragged be­ neath the ioad. The horses were stopped before reaching the C.P.R. tracks. “My young son 9 years of age said to me the other day: “At the rate wages are going up soon every­ body will be buying everything then production won’t be fast enough and there will be nothing to buy so prices will go up.” This is a letter which came to me from the father of the nine year old. He made this little speech to his father and his Dad gave him a quar­ ter to write it down. The chances are that eventually he will become a journalist and en­ ter the House of Commons—such ia the driving power of early influence. He has great wisdom for his years. He sees that there is something wrong. There is. The passion to buy runs ahead of our ability to pro­ duce. Yet we produce far more than we eyer did in any previous peace time period. Still there is not enough to supply the demand. How can we catch up. That is the great unans­ wered question. • • • The same mail brought me a let­ ter from a farmer in Western Can­ ada. I give you one paragraph of it: “Do I wish to stop inflation? I came to the conclusion that it would be the biggest mistake we ever made. In the first place it is a sign of prosperity, everybody working, and earning a good liv­ ing, and what strikes me most is that we have developed a huge • debt during the war, and if the government takes the golden op- Their Influence Will Remain During recent months several old-timers in the district, especially rural residents, have been taken by death. Most of them had spent their entire life here, and were either the children or grandchild™, of pioneers, who had helped to open this part of the country a hundred years ago or more. They were reared in homes in which a strong religious atmosphere prevailed, and where industry was a necessity. As familiar with crop failures, as with successes, they knew all about surmounting diffi­ culties. But they never wavered in their purpose to give of their best. They realized that freedom demanded it, and they were men and women of integrity. Like most people who live close to nature, they were little influenced by extremists in either re­ ligion or politics. The fundamentals fitted in with their surroundings, and stood the. test of time. Their interest in, and understanding of, politics was keen and genuine, often reflecting unfavour­ ably on urban dwellers in that respect. For that reason, political leaders seeking a secure constit­ uency very often chose a rural one. These men and women, some of whom have passed away within the past fortnight, have be­ queathed a rich inheritance to the country at large, and particularly to those who will carry on where they left off. Shoppers Would Appreciate Rest Privileges The town of St. Marys shows a nice consider­ ation for its shoppers by providing a waiting room in the council chamber, as well as providing shel­ ter for horses and cutters in a hotel barn and church shed. Proper rest rooms for shoppers is something that has been overlooked in the change- over from hotels to tourist lodges, and from the horse and buggy to the automobile. There was a time when ample accommodation was provided for the farmer and his wife in the many hotel waiting rooms; and for his herse, in the hotel barns, or sheds, which were once a part of every chureh property. Now that is changed,and a very ^finite need exists in Ingersoll for some place in’the business section, where shoppers, both rural axd urban, may rest, before starting the homeward journey, loaded down with bundles. At present, only three business places provide benches for that purpose. Of late years, it has not been necessary to offer any inducements, to shoppers. But those who do so may reap the' benefit when conditions are otherwise. On Tuesday afternoon, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Ross, King street,’Mary, their eldest daughter, was united to Mr. Bernett McGee of the firm of Sulevan and McGhee, Woodstock. The bride was attended by her sister, Miss Katie. Mr. J. B. Coverdill of the G.N.W. Telegraph Office, Woodstock, was best man. Lulu Ross, sister of' the bride, was mjKid of honor and the wedding march was playeff by Miss Geneva Straitch of Kin- tore, The marriage ceremony was performed by Rev. W. A. McKay of Chalmer’s Church, Wood- stock. The groom’s gift to the bride was a gold bracelet. Mr. and Mrs. 'McGhee will reside inJlroodstock. 15 YEARS AGO Thursday, Jan. 19th, 1933 On Saturday, January 14th, Rev. Joseph Wasson of Calvin Presbyterian Church, Toronto, united in marriage, Elizabeth, daughter of Mrs. McKay, 116 Bellsize Drive, Toronto, and the late Dr. Angus McKay of Ingersoll, and Lachlan MacTavish, only son of Dr. and Mrs. Newton McTavish of Ottawa. The annual vestry meeting of St. James’ Angli­ can Church/was held on Monday evening. The rector, Rev. W. E. V. McMillen, acted as chairman. Following Ire the officers: Rector’s Warden, E. A. Wilson; People’s Warden, C, W, Riley, Jr.; Miss­ ionary Secretary, Victor Shipton; Auditors, Charles Hovey, Victor Shipton; Delegates to Synod, F. A. Ackert, W. E. Cragg; Substitutes, F. S.

Newman and the Wardens; Gymnasium Committee, R. A. Stone, J. E. Gayfer, E. A. Wilson. The first meeting of the Ingersoll Collegiate Lit­ erary Society was held Friday, January 13th, in the town hall. The president, Donald Wilson, pre­ sided. To open the programme, the orchestra gave a number under the direction of Keith Geddie, followed by a piano solo by Doris Henderson. The minutes of the last meeting were read by Jack Pellow. Paul Bowman read the journal. Marjorie Bailey gave a vocal solo and Keith Geddie a violin solo. A humorous skit was put on by four boys, Jack Dunn, Donald Wilson, Paul Bowman and Del­ bert Woollin. Mr. Bole read the critic's report and the meeting was brought to a close. Winter Sky Is One of Beauty It was Henry Van Dyke who wrote, that one should be glad of life because among other things, it gfives a i chance, "to look up at the stars." A glance upward on these clear frosty nights is richly rewarded as the heavens present awe-inspiring beauty. Mars is particularly bright at present, and as it is unusually near Saturn and Regulus, the three present a striking spectacle. All the lesser "lamps of heaven", also are shin­ ing forth in all their glory to such an extent that the expression of Thomas Carlyle, "mon it is awful! when a friend drew his attention to the sky, can be readily understood. One does not need to be an astronomer to appreciate the sight. It is one that can make an appeal to all rbumans.(v ; In the opening games of the Church League on Thursday night last, the Anglicans trounced the Presbyterians 5-1. Bill Jordan opened the scoring *>y shooting the puck into his own net He made up for this by scoring the lone Presbyterian goal. For the Anglicans, Longfield with two and Pellow and Dinty Moore were the goal getters. The teams—Anglicans: Goal, Gilling; defence, Long- field, Moore; centre, Pellow; wings, Cook, Cox­ subs, Juett, Nunn, Wallace. Presbyterians—Goal, Lee; defence, Hamilton, Pullen; centre, Jordan; wings, Sutherland, Sutherland; subs, Simpson, Kerr, Cray. > The second game went to the Baptists over the Sacred Hearts, 4-3. For the Baptists, Elliott, Minty and Crane; the latter getting two goals. For Sacred Heart, Foster and Brasi with two. Sacred Heart- Goal, Fisher; defence, G.

Henderson. portunity to install a system of high taxation to help pay off some of the debt and keep the Canadian bonds at par, I am sure that it would be of more service to the Canadian people than a depress­ ion. I am certain no government can indulge in a system of price regulations without running into a lot of grief. The government has set the price of grain, and the first thing that appears is that live stock is out of line and a de­ cline in that line is in the mak­ ing.” He raises an interesting question. He slates it well. I doubt if it will ever be possible to establish a sy- estem of price regulation without running into a lot of grief. It is in the nature of things that eventually prices will be carried out of line. He is quite aware of that because he points it out in this con­ cluding paragraph. , Price controls are definitely poss­ ible in time of war and it is highly advisable in those times that they should be rigidly applied but thereia something to help them in a timelike that, something which goes farbeyond any law which can be en­ forced. There is the spirit of the people, definitely determined to obey that law and do everything possible, besides there is always the danger of price distortion, or wage distortion. Should I add to that profit distor­ tion? It is certainly less dangerous. There is powerful competition func­ tioning to prevent this. In the world as it is today, competition does not function against price increases in food production and in countries like the United States and Canada it does not function in wage rates.• • • I had an argument the other day. Is parliament getting better or worse? That's a difficult question to answer. I have watched it more or less for twenty years and I am in­ clined to think that it is worse not better, but I wouldn’t advise you to take the advice of anybody in regard to this. Different people read the record of the House of Commons, read it in different ways. Some feel that it should do one thing and some an- I other and I often wonder why no­ body suggests that parliament should make a careful study of a particular question with the object of finding out which is*the wiser way. I do not think you will ever suc­ ceed in doing this while you have a house of 245 members. Even that is to be increased, possibly increased twice, once through population growth, twice if Newfoundland comes into the Dominion. Better results might be achieved with a house of 100 members which was less set in its ways, less certain CANADA YEAR BOOKIS NOW AVAILABLE The 1947 Canada Year Book is now available for distribution by au­ thorization of the Hon. James A. MacKinnon, Minister of Trade and Commerce, and will be supplied to the public by the King’s Printer, Ottawa, at the price of $2.00 per copy. By special concession, teach­ ers, university students and minis­ ters of religion may obtain paper­ bound copies at $1.00 by applying to the Dominion Statistician, Domin­ ion Bureau of Statistics, Ottawa. Remittance should be made by money order or accepted cheque payable to the Receiver General of Canada. In addition to the regular statis­ tical and textual data, which has been carefully revised or brought up to date to reflect changing condi­ tions, the 1947 edition contains many special articles on a wide var­ of its own righteousness, more anx­ ious to find better ways of doing things. From time to time atrocious mis-statements are made in the House of Commons. They are rarely corrected. They may be met and answered in the newspapers—even that is not so common as it once was. One hundred men or women work­ ing together trying to solve some of our problems would eventually as Dryden once defined it, “deviate into right.” But there are 245 and they will work for party advantage as well as for public weal. Hope of real progress becomes a rathqr distant dream. What after all is the public good? The increase of the national income and its wise expenditure for the betterment of the people of Can­ ada. Incidentally, at this moment, when taxes are extremely high there is great need for a tight hand on the public purse. Jones—Is your wife economical? Bones—Very.

In that great repository of good things, "The Reader’s Digest”, 1 ran across a story the other day which had a great appeal to me. It is the story of ^Matchless Sam", the most courteous bus.driver in New York. So clearly Is this a recognized title that a passenger once sent him a cheque payable to "The Most Cour­ teous Bus Driver in New York.” His bank honored it without question. From one end of the drive to the other he is a cheery soul and keeps his guests happy—that’s the right word “guests"! At one stop a stout elderly Ne­ gress came running down a side street. Sam wagged a stern finger at her. “Don’t you know that you're not to run for my bus? It’s bad for your heart. I can see you coming. I’ll wait.” He says thank you when somebody pulls the cord for a stop. He says “Sorry you have to go so soon”, to those who are leaving the bus, he gives them a cheery note, “come again, good-bye.” This man is an Italian by birth, Salvatore Cascavilla. He has earned his honors and deserves his title. He has done good work. O God, I wish that Molo­ tov could get in his mind and heart and spirit, the feeling and thought of this New York bus driver. It might save the world from war, it might change the whole course of human events. Mankind is at the mercy of a few who hold, in their minds, the destiny of the human race.

PAUL’S GUILD PLAN YEAR’S WORK A meeting of the Presbyterian Guild was held Tuesday evening at the home of their leader, Mrs. R. B. Hutt, Oxford'^treet. and almost per­ fect attendance was recorded. The devotional period was presided over by the vice-president, Mrs. Anderson Thornton, the Scripture being read by Miss Roberta Gillies. Two articles were read by Ann Macdonald and Irma Hutt on topics of timely inter­ est. The business portion of the meeting was taken over by the pre­ sident, Mrs. Ken Ford. Discussion on the ways and means of planning for the financial program of the coming year took up the remainder of the business time. Money was voted to the Board of Managers of the Church. The meeting closed by the Mizpah Benediction. A very delicious lunch was served by the hostesses for the evening, Miss Roberta Gillies and Mrs. Jack McCutcheon. The next meeting is to be held at the home of Mrs. Harold Am, King street west. the home of Hugh and Christine Hacker, on Feb. 10. SALFORD SECOND LINE FARM FORUM MEETING Mr. and Mrs. Roy Mitchell were hosts on Monday evening to the members of the Salford Second Line Farm Forum. Owing to the storm, the attendance was not as large as usual. Following the broadcast, "Do we need a Nationl Marketing Act?” a discussion took place under the leadership of Roy Mitchell with Mrs. Murray McBeth acting as secretary. The Forum decided a national mar­ keting Act would be an improvement over a provincial one. It was felt that this would provide a more uniform grade and standard for goods and that a National Board would have control over products after they leave the province in which they were produced. Also, under such a system, products would' be sold un­ der the name of the Province in which they are grown and not chan­ ged as is the case at present. Plans were made for next week s meeting which will be a joint meeting of the Forums of the county held at the Recreation Centre, Woodstock .Fair Grounds. A new book has been published, “Maxims and Reflections” of the Rt. Hon. Winston S. Churchill. No doubt more will follow. Churchill and his work will be an endless subject for discussion far down the pages of his­ tory. A man by the name of Colin Coote made the selections for this volume and I think he touched on the one supreme thing which has made Churchill what he is: No one ever doubts his sincerity. In its com­ ments, The Manchester " writes as follows: “Listening to him strongly aware that wrong in his opinions, you have been listening to one who has been strenuously and honestly putting his mind before the House." That’s a fine statement. It should be the guiding thought of statesmen everywhere, not to hide honest con­ victions but to think, and study the problems of to-day and then present their opinions with all the power which comes naturally from well trained minds—plus the ability to state a case with clarity and precis­ ion. So this I apprehend to be true, we shall more and more place emph«ws on these two words: "pro­ found sincerity.” Guardian you arc right or SHOW HALL Guild has helped Representative: Walter M.

Wallace, from my point of view, has always been running on the wrong track. Somehow I have always coup­ led him in my mind with Dr. J. R. Mutchmor, Secretary of the Board of Evangelism and Social Service of the United Church of Canada. It may seem a strong combination but they are both evangelists of a slight­ ly different kind. The Evangelists, old style, have passed away, a dif­ ferent class has come into existence. Once, years ago I heard Billy Sunday and wrote in appreciation of him. He was a master artist on the plat­ form. He had the dramatic touch. I have heard many evangelists in my day but he is the one who sticks in my memory. I mentioned Dr. Mutchmor a mo­ ment ago.

Keep your carcontrol at all times. Don’t applyyour brakes suddenly and that greatbugbear of winter driving, the un­ predictable skid, can be avoided.Tills Is the advice of experts to On­tario motorists during the tempera­mental days of January. January Is a month of moods, theywarn. Sudden thaws are followedby quick freezes. Skies rain and snow alternately. The wise driver Isprepared for these changes and thehazards they present. Of the 1,453 accidents that oc­curred In January of last year, 1.093or approximately 75 per cent-took place on snowy or icy roads, accord­ing to a summary of accident sta­tistics compiled by the Motor Vehi­cles Branch of |he Department ofHighways- Thirteen of the accidentswere fatal, 351 resulted in injury,and damage to property happened in 729 cases. Accident records showthat people do make some allowan­ ces for road and weather conditions,but often not enough. Skids Can Be Avoided “Get into the habit of using se­cond gear whenever you have to slow down,” says a senior examinerof the Department of Highways, aman who has given thousands of under ♦driving tests to applicants for driv­ ing licenses.Pointing out that every year anew army of drivers have to learn how to drive on snow and ice, beotters this advice to novice*. "Keep your foot away from the clutch pedal until the combinationof gearing down and 'pumping' thebrake pedal has brought the car al­ most to a standstill, "If the car starts to skid aheadwhen the brakes arc applied the driver must release the brakes atonce. As soon as the wheels startturning again he may brake gently. Repeating this process of alternate­ly braking and releasing (common­ly known as ’pumping tire brakes’) will generally bring the car to asafe stop. If a car skids sidewayswhile you are driving, you should ’turn into the skid’—that is turnyour front wheels in the directionin which the rear end Is ^kidding." When approaching a curve al­most any driver has enough senseto slow down. It is even usual to beat centrifugal force by ’’gunning'’the car again as you come out of the curve itself. But motoristsshould be hesitant in doing this onsnowy or icy curves, the expert says"Generally speaking, on Ice or snow JBEACHVILLE I COOPER’S DRI-KILL For Cattle Lice 2 IB.

It* driver turned thefront wheels to the right also, and came out of the skid. ^rivers should not accelerate oncurves, unless the car begins to slipsideways then some gentle accelera­tion may help.” Watcli Street-Car Tracks In cities with street-car tracks,snow and Ice build up on both sidesof each track. There is great dan­ ger of getting one or both wheelsof a car caught in the ruts thatform there. By throwing the car out of control this causes a great manyaccidents. “When you have to cross or strad­dle the tracks, your front wheelsshould be turned at a sharp angle.” says the Department of Highwaysexpert. "If you do get caught in askid along car-tracks, you can come out of it safely if you turn sharplyIn the direction the car is skidding—the same procedure as with any other skid sideways.”Have your brakes equalized—that means having them fixed so that they will have the same pull. Then when the brakes are applied the carmay skid forward but will stay in a straight line. If the left brake gripsharder than the right the car willpivot toward the left into the path of oncoming traffic. A forward skidIs not so dangerous as a sidewise skid. In a sidewise skid the car mayin some cases turn completelyaround or it may make an about face and be headed in the oppositedirection to that in which it hadbeen travelling. Roads covered with snow and iceare always dangerous. One is just as likely to skid when starting a caras when stopping. New tires grip in.finitely better than old ones. But even with new tires, chains shouldi be used on ice or packed snow— they can reduce braking distance umuch as 40 or 50 per cent.

Old-Fashioned Custom Steamed puddings are a good old-fashioned custom, seldom encoun­ tered now-a-day*. They are easy tomix. The only possible difficulty is the two hour time needed for steam­ing. But this goes on when one Is in and out of the kitchen, and It’s asimple method of cooking, as no special supervision is needed. Justbe sure the water doesn't cook out of the steaming kettle.To steam puddings: Place a rack in the bottom of a good-sized kettle;or substitute several folds of news­ paper.

People are talking more about marmalade this winter. Homemade preserves are always the favourite sweet of the “toagt and jam crowd.” You can make marmalade with pride if you use some care. Since it will not be long before the favourite Seville oranges are in the fruit stores, here are recommen­ dations for a clear, sparkling marm­ alade with evenly distributed fruit. Wash and wipe the citrus fruit. Use a good sharp knife and cut Use measuring cup or scales for quantities in recipe. Do not double any marmalade recipe more than once. Let fruit and water stand over night. Give your undivided attention to mixtures while cooking. Cook until the jelly test is obtain­ ed—that is, until the syrup forms a sheet-like substance as the last few drops fall from the side of the stirr­ ing spoon.

SEVILLE ORANGE MARMALADE 12 peeled Seville (or sour) oranges 6 pints water 1-3 of peel from oranges Sugar Wash fruit, remove peel, discard two-thirds of peel, reserving the one-third free from blemish. With a knife remove any blemish that may be on the peel to be used. Cut this peel into thin slices. Place in a kettle and add 4 times the amount of water. Boil for 10 minutes, then drain. Repeat this process from 3 to 5 times, each time boiling for 5 minutes. Peel should be tender. The bitter taste may be removed by changing the water a sufficient num­ ber of times. After the peel has been removed, cut the .fruit pulp into small pieces, place in a kettle and add 6 pints of water. Boil until the pulp thoroughly disintegrates. Pour into a jelly bag and press until no more juice can be obtained. Strain this juice again through a clean bag without pressing. Pour juice into a kettle, add peel and bring to a boil. For each cup of mixture, add 3-4 cup sugar. Make in 2-cup lots for best results. Continue boiling until jelly test is obtained. Pour into sterilized jars and seal.

"He’s wanted tor the killing ofJacques Regnier,” O’Rourke con­tinued steadily. "That's no newsto yon. He disappeared the day after the murder, two days be­fore we eould get hero to in­ vestigate the erime. His staterwent with him. It was the middleof winter and we got no true trace of them. Now we have word.It’s going to go hard with himwhen we land him, as we will,the way things look; on the evi­dence and the fact of hta runningaway. It looks as If he might hang, MacLeod."“ Tie naght to me," muttered The MacLeod."He's In White Rock, with nis sister," O’Rourke said suddenly.Watching the trader to try andsurprise him into some confirma­ tion of his news. The source seem­ed fairly certain, but It was a longway to White Rock and they hadalready follow ed many futiletrails, misled by false rumors.Alexander MacLeod shrugged his shoulders.The Mountle sergeant took seat in front of the fire, tamping downfresh tobacco on the dotte) in blspipe while MacLeod stood erect- one shoulder and eyebrow savage­ly awry, glowering."I’ll commandeer supper and such supplies as I need, in theKing's name, for all of which I’llleave you a voucher on the R. C. M. P.”"You’re welcome to all orthem,” MacLeod replied sourly, "though there’s no reason 1 shouldsupply ye free with the means tohunt my kin. But you’ll have asun of good Scotch wl' me. ser­ geant? I ken you’re but doingyour duty. And you’ll stay thenight? ’Tta bad weather." "And may be worse," answeredO’Rourke. It was not like TheMacLeod to be so free with hisScotch, so pressing with bis hopes tor others’ comfort. Not withoutvery good reason. "That same dutykeeps me from your good liquor and sends me on."He got bls pipe going, wonder­ing, pondering. Even as Dick Byrne had done,. he liaened MacLeod to an olddog-fox. "I’d like to know," O’Rourketold himself, "just how much hehad/to do with his nephew’s get­away. The lad’s sister went with him. And he wants me to stopover night. He’s a bit too kind.I’ve got a hunch he was not as surprised to see me as he mighthave been. He’s got a lot to sayof what goes on In this neck of the woods and little there is hedoesn’t know. He might havesent some one ahead to White Rock to warn Will MacLeod ofpursuit. "It would no: be Peace RiverJack, tor he would be double­ crossing himself. That breedwould sell his sou) for the thou-sand-dollar reward. But theremight have been a leak. It’s dirtyweather, but the wind's shifting,at that. I might get a break. At any rate I’D try for one.” The spow stopped falling with­in an hour after O'Rourke hadset out on the trail to apprehendWill MacLeod tor murder. With­in another hour, on a steadilyfalling thermometer, a crust wasfalling so that he could glissadeover the surface at good speed.He toted a rifle and a pair ofbearpaw extra snowshoes torspecial circumstances. The weath­ er could not be depended upon formore than a few hours at a time. Three men upon the same trail. Dick Byrne, unconscious he wasfollowed. Kinocetl, swift in pur­suit. knowing the country as a wolf or moose might know it,the contours where one mightavoid the bitter wind; bent upon an errand fraught with villainyand greed. Then O'Rourke of theMounted, handicapped but stead­ fast, Nemesis of the Law; intentupon bringing in his man if hebad to follow him all the way to the North Pole. It was hard going.

Byrne staggered, head down against theblustering, bellowing rage thatwas so tremendous Mt almostcowed him. He was using up thelast of hta resistance and vitalityto get to the timber. Among the trees, well aleefrom the storm, there stood asardonic figure, watching Byrne's desperate progress. Peace RiverJack had overtaken, and wasawaiting the white man, through bls native knowledge of the ter­rain. He slid out his rifle fromits elkhide sheath against the frost, shook off a fur mitten, afterhe had pumped a cartridge intothe breech. A tffousand-dollarcartridge, stolen by old Mariefrom MacLeod for the undoing ofMacLeod. This wae a play that accorded well with the grim, sar­donic humor of Peace River Jack. He saw Byrne get inso shelter,select a birch, strip ^f its bark with the inflammable inner lining.HU mood let him wait, like acat with a mouse. He put hismitten on again, covered his ex­posed rifle, waited while Byrne skillfully made bis fire, startedhis supper, tea and rice with beefcubes, melted pemmican, Swedishbread. That got going. Now Byrneneeded a backlog, more fuel, sohis fire would last all night. Nottoo easy a job with a band-ax. A spurt of fire spat from thespruce.

The wind was over and the stare showed, brilliant as spear points piercing purple fab­rics. They seemed to bring eternity closed. He would know all aboutthat before those stars paled tothe next sun. Byrne told himself. Or he would know—nothing. The wood he fed changed toflaming gases, to carbon, to ashthat glowed briefly and faded.What had been living trees turnedto dust And he—a living man? Grudgingly he fed the fire an­ other precious stick. He wouldfight as long as be could. Thoughts came in sudden rushes, like flashbacks in an ill-assembled film. Why had Willgonf away?

It might be an honest man, or at least one tear­ful of MacLeod, anxious to get inbls favor. And the money wwMacLeod's. Dick Byrne had no one especial­ly to leave it to—unless it mighthelp Marion.

We've seen the town burnt down several times, but we’ve lived through It all and been ’appy”, such were the words of a woman from Essex who lived within 15 miles of London, and who had looked once in a while from the "chalk cliffs o’ Dover.” and who had not seen again the sweet and pleasant fields of Old England for nearly half a century. The best way to know a country Is to talk with people who hewed out a home in the “bush”; they are the archives and interpreters. "Are these real roses on your table, Mrs. Edwards?” "Yes, in­ deed.” The husband came forward and inhaled the perfume, and then said: “This is mother’s birthday and two of the boys sent real roses.” “I wish you many happy returns,” and so we fell into a chat about Engle­ hart. It seems Mr. James Louis Engle- | hart who was a Railway Commis­ sioner, gave his name to the town.1 It is said he was of Jewish national­ ity. A quiet prosperous Burg now thoroughly modern with wide streets, good stores, etc., excellent schools, and up-to-date hospital, two good doctors, Dr. Gibbon and his assist­ ant, Dr. Higgins. There are six churches, United, Presbyterian, Anglican, Catholic and Baptist and Jewish Synagogue. There is a barrel factory; only the staves are made here; unfortunately too many ban-els come back, for we have three bever­ age rooms, too many for a town of 1400. There are a number of plane- ing mills. I’ve noticed a MacMaster truck from Hamilton, Ont., come here and take away as much as 16,000 feet of dressed lumber at one clip. The town gets its water supply from two wells, 150 feet de&p, rightdown to springs in quick sandpit is good drinking water and nearly all the houses have modern plumbing and hydo. There is a good Masonic building, a modern hotel, a fire bri­ gade, an Orange Lodge, an Imperial bank, a splendid railway station, several taxis, a good bus service, excellent postal service, which needs a more modern Government build­ ing. We have also local and Federal police. The Northland Railway is a credit to the Ontario Government who owns it and runs it. The engines and cars are the best. The sen-ice rendered by their employees is full of courtesy and effectiveness. When you sit in the dining cars you imagine you are in a modern and up-to-date city res­ taurant, being waited on by clever and intelligent girls, and being ser­ ved with food, (no liquor), at very reasonable prices. I believe this rail­ way line which now runs from North Bayjright up to Moosonee, began atthe^pening of the 29th Century. Temagami is a tourist and sport n. Cobalt is the silver town. . eybury is a government town, ew Liskeard is a farming town; nglehart a railroad and farming own. Kirkland Lake with a popula­ tion of 23,000 is a gold town; Tim­ mins, also a gold town with a popula­ tion of 35,000; Iroquois Falls with . a pulp mill, produces 700 tons of I paper per day; Kapuskasing, another i pulp centre, quite near the C.N.R. Transcontinental, produces a train load of paper every day. If you look at the map you will see the Trans­ continental crosses at Cochrane, which is a lumber town. I believe when you get to Moosenee, you run into about 17 miles of shallow water before you reach James Bay. This land is flowing with streams and rivers, which flow north and lose themselves in the Arctic Sea. Before the railroad came in here, G. R. Booth, who became a millionaire, established his lumber camps in this Northland. South of the town of Englehart flows the White River. Mr. Booth floated his logs to the Temiskaming river and from there to the Ottawa river. No wonder -Mr. Booth was able to put a cheque for a $1000.90 under the plates of his large family on a Christmas morning. This country helped him make millions. Red and white pine trees abounded. They were from 80 to 100 feet high and would measure 4 feet across at the base. One tree has been known to yield 1000 feet of good lumber. In the old days when the work was done by horse teams, a team did well to bring out from the saw mills 1000 feet. It sold then for around $16 to 117 a thousand. With modem trans­ portation a truck can take away 16,000 or even 18,000, and lay it down in Winnipeg or Hamilton or Toronto, and to-day it will bring around $60.00 a thousand. To-day thousands of men are working in the bush cutting dertvn pulp wood. They are paid $4.50 per cord, and get a bonus of 50c extra for every 50 cords they cut A strong, willing worker can cut down about 3 cords a day and easily clear $10.00 a day. The Company deducts $1.25 a day for board and the men who cater for the meals say they cannot do it at that price, and the men in the bush threaten to strike If they are charged more; so the economic struggle is felt in the silences of the forest, where the beaver still builds his house, wherethe huge moose roams, where thedeer play with their fawns; but alsowhere the fierce timber wolves stillroam a-plenty and prey upon help-’ less deer. Pioneers tall me they canI see to-day where the deer lie down t at night sheltered by a wind-break I of trees, and sometimes they will (come across a deer still alive, with |the cords of its hind legs cut and > torn, so it cannot run and bound from its enemy the wolf. The Gov­ ernment gives a bounty of 125.00 and the pelt of a wolf will bring three or four dollars, but I am told that a hunter could not make a liv­ ing at wolf hunting, so wily is Mr. Wolf. I’ve talked with many people up here during the last three months, and it is the consensus of opinion that this Northland of New On­ tario and North West Quebec, which is just across the border, presents a wide field. It waits for more farm­ ers, more miners, more engineers, more fishermen. It’s a common say­ ing up here, despite the wonderful production of mine, plain and forest, “we’ve just scratched the surface so far.” Though it snows a lot, and though it drops away below zero, yet the sunshine is glorious, and a man can make a good home here, and never^be in want of the necessities of life.

The students showed their apprecia­ tion by singing the University’s Col­ lege Song, and by enthusiastic applause. The most important agency mental hygiene is the home, accord­ ing to Dr. Karl S. Bernhardt of the Department of Psychology, Univer­ sity of Toronto. Writing in the current issue of Health, official magazine of the Health League of Canada, Dr. Bern­ hardt says that if the home fails to provide the r ight kind of training for its children or the right kind of emotional atmosphere for its mem­ bers then it contributes to unhappi­ ness and poor mental health rather than the happiness and good mental health that should be its usual pro­ duct. “The good home is a force for mental health, the poor home is a menace as it makes it almost imposs­ ible for its members to be in good mental health,” he writes. “The good home provides the kind of train­ ing necessary for good adjustment, while the poor home gives training which leads to neurotic and evyn psychotic behavior.” Dr. Bernhardt describes a good home as one in which all its members feel at home—a place where the in­ dividual has a chance to grow and develop, where ’ he doesn’t feel cramped and hemmed-in. He feels he is accepted and understood. “The good home has an atmos­ phere of emotional security," he writes. “It is not merely a haven from the world but real part of the world in which mutual co-operation, for Scon'S SCRAP BOOK An exciting basketball game between the I.C.I. and Woodstock “Y” girls was played on Thursday evening at the Anglican gymnasium.

It requires this kind of an atmosphere for the individual to maintain his mental health.” The .writer states that the most important yean for the fostering and developing healthy attitudes and emotional habits are the yean of childhood. There are two important features of these years for mental health—the type of discipline and the character of the pattern^ of be­ haviour the child has to follow. In the good home the discipline is consistent and reasonable. The goal of the discipline is not just keep the child from being bad, but rather to help him develop self-discipline. , A child’s general attitudes are a reflection of those of his parents, according to Dr. Bernhardt who states that “if his parents evade their responsibilities, use twisted methods of thinking, have prejudices and intolerances, we can expect the child to reflect the same patterns.” Standards of truth and honesty are “caught not taught”, according to the writer who states further that in a good home the child is not ex­ pected to be perfect; he is never told that he should behave like some other child; nor is he put on display or talked about in his hearing. In the good home, the child is allowed to grow up and is not hindered by too much parental protection or domination. “The good home shows a blending of freedom and responsibility,” Dr. Bernhardt says. “Each individual member of the family has a measure of freedom, but must show a certain amount of responsibility along, with By R.
