THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE Hm Only Newspaper Published in Ingersoll INGERSOLL, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JAN. 29, 1948 Single Copy - 6 Cento - 12 00 Per Annum U.S.A., M.60 J. Hartley Fowler Addressed Joint Meeting of Service Clubs Annual Meeting of United Church Held Dorchester—The annual meeting The Ingersoll Kiwanis Club held a joint meeting with’ the Y’s Men’s Club and the Y. Board, on Thursday evening, in St. Paul’s Presbyterian Sunday School rooms, at which J. Hartley Fowler, World Service Sec retory of the Y.M.C.A. in Canada, spoke on the combined subjects, “The Crisis in Palestine”, and "In- "that wonderful little country.” He visited the sight of the former vil lage of Lidice, destroyed by the Hun, In all these places he found the Communist influence strong, and he expressed the conviction that if these countries, all sick physically, morally, mentally and economically are to be healed by democracy, it of Dorchester United Church was held Wednesday evening, Jan. 21st. All reports of the year's work show ed progress. The following were elected to the Board of Stewards for three years: C. E. Barr, Jos. Hunt, W. A. Barr, M. Longfield, B. R. Barr. Members of the church made this meeting an opportunity to record side Europe To-Day.” Having re cently returned from an 18,000 mile trip through Europe and the Near East, Mr. Fowler was well qualified to speak on the subject. He held the close attention of his audience as he described his plane trip from Toronto to Cairo, where he began his visits to various Y.M.C.A. posts. “Palestine", stated the speaker, “is the most troubled spot in the world,” where more history has been made than in any other country.” Of the conflict between Arabs and Jews, he took a very serious view, as each one is bitterly opposed to the other by tradition, with the Arabs considering themselves the rightful owners and desirous of keeping the the Jews in a minority; while the Jews, who claim to have done more for the development of the country and weary of wandering about the world, seek to establish themselves there and to make it their'homeland. Mr. Fowler considers the position of mediator in the partition of Pales tine as the most responsible oneXn the world at present, as from the de cision reached peace or conflict may ensue. One favourable aspect, he feels, is the fact that Russia has ex pressed agreement with Britain and the United States on the plan of partition. In spite of the many tragedies of the past, there is hope for the fu ture, as expressed by the speaker, in the fact that a common belief in the Diety, gives both factions a founda tion on which to build for the future, for believing in one God, the way is open for them to work for one world. This thought was also pres ented to him in Athens where he went from Palestine, and while standing on Mar's Hill, he recalled the world view expressed in the same place by St. Paul that God had made of on<^ blood all men. In Greece, Mr. Fowler found great poverty and want. Six years of war had left the soil impoverished and the people too physically weakened to restore it to productivity. He met many interesting people in Greece, W’ho, led by their King and Queen are attempting to ease the lot of the afflicted and to give leadership in the rebuilding of the country. He men tioned the high esteem in which the Canadian Ambassador, Col. LeFleche and his staff are held in Greece. Czechoslovakia , which he also visited, Mr. Fowler described as < must be presented to them as offer ing more than any other remedy, to cure their ills. Three fears over shadow these people, according to Mr. Fowler’s observations: first, the fear of a third world war; second, fear of regimentation by Russia; third, fear of the competitive mili tary power of the United States. Lacking faith in themselves and also a purpose in life, they are apt to drift unless guided in a definite re building plan, which will require not only one Marshall Plan, but mttfiy, with assurance of friendship and sympathy from the Western World, an important part of which will be educating youth in the spirit of goodwill. In conclusion, the speaker de clared: “we have something better than Communism to offer these people. Let us in our family, com munity, business and national life, apply democratic principals to prove to them that it is better. Gordon B. Henry, Regional Dir ector of Y’s Men’s Clubs, introduced the speaker, and R. A. Stone, presi dent of the Ingersoll "Y” Board, expressed the thanks of the gather ing, on whose behalf he presented Mr. Fowler with a gift of Ingersollcheese.

HARRY TITTENSOR PASSES IN CALIFORNIA The death of a former well known and esteemed resident of Ingersoll, in the person of Mrs. Harry Titten sor, occurred on Monday at Los Angeles, California, following a long illness.

Skiiers report that during the past few weeks, conditions have been ideal for this thrilling sport, so that practically every afternoon and even ing groups of young people are to be seen on the numerous hills on each side of the town. Some of them drive by car to more distant pdints to enjoy the steeper hills, west of Embro and also those south of Woodstock. But for the average skiier the hills near Ingersoll, pro vide all the thrills—and spills to be desired. The season for skiing in this dis trict is short, for although there may be considerable snow for several weeks yet unless low temperatures prevail for a longer than usual per iod, the snow is not likely to be suf ficiently hard for good skiing. For that reason anyone desiring to try the sport is advised to do so soon, for a sudden change in weather conditions might end the pleasure for this year. in their irreparable loss.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 29th 1948 Diversity of Views ExpressedAt Farm Forums A few conclusions reported from Farm Forums in Western Ontario, in discussing the topic, “The World Is Our Market”, present food for interest ing thought. Tremendous faitn in governments to right all the wrongs of life, and ta set us on the road to contentment is evident in such conclus ions as “The producer should be protected by Gov ernment aid if prices failed to prove satisfactory”, and also that of another group claiming that sen ding food overseas, “should be the responsibility of the Government, and that the farmer should be assured prevailing prices for his markets.” That suggests Communism, and would also lead to higher taxes. Another group with an appreciation of freedom to be expected of those who live m the out of doors, came out against Communism by stating that “feeding the starving of Europe was preferable to neglecting them and thus leaving them as possible ground for the seeds of Commun ism." The spirit of the true husbandman, as well as of the Good Samaritan, was exemplified in those who felt that “moral obligation transcended potential gain, and that the average farmer would be will ing to cut profits to aid the hungry'.” One assumes it wold be the hungry of any nation who would thus be aided. In some others, the quality of charity was mod erated by a desire to provide for their own needs first, for they claimed that “while surplus food cer tainly should be directed to starving nations, nev ertheless, it should be ensured that the farmer is not deprived of his rightful profit.” One is rather mystified by the statement, “it would be unwise to throw the American market open to the Canadian producer, as it was consider ed this step would result in higher prices to the domestic customer.” To advocate a restricted mar ket for the country’s products is something new. It appears to be in direct contradiction to the general policy of all industry’, and renders futile all efforts of trade missions. Who can the cus tomer be in this case, and is the same consider ation to be given in all matters of buying and selling? It can readily be seen from the foregoing that there are numerous ways of looking at the subject, and that various human traits influence the decision of those who discussed it. An observer reaches conclusions also; one of which is that those who participate in these forums may be deeply grateful to 'the democratic form of government that permits their taking part in them. They may well do all in their power to co operate with and uphold that form of government. Another, is that the supply of food can never be stabilized until there is stability of weather, which 'appears a long way off—rainmakers notwithstand- • ing. Stabilized taxation with an adjustable scale of government expenditures to meet prevailing con ditions might help more than crop or market control. Fire Precautions Are Necessary Days are lengthening, and accordingly, the cold is strengthening. The business of tending fires occupies a good deal of time and attention, for it is poor economy both from a health standpoint and in maintaining property, to allow frost to enter a building. But while fires must be tended, great care is also necessary in order to avoid fire. The record of people, especially children, being bumd to death in their homes is a tragic one, and of all too frequent occurrence. Parents leave their children alone at home, overheated stove pipes start a fire, and the consequences may lead to tragedy. It is of the utmost importance that all pipes and chimneys should be carefully and frequently examined in order that there may not be any danger of fire.. Ingersoll is fortunate in having a well-trained fire department, with up-to-date equipment. Be cause of that, and also of the fact that in recent years, the town has not had any serious fire, the insurance rate is low. However, that is no excuse for complacency, In fact it suggests the need for eternal vigilance on the part of all householders and property owners, in order to maintain that enviable record. A conflagration in the centre of the town would be a crushing bleyw. That whirh occurred in 1872 left its mark on the community for many years thereafter. Our comeback from another might take even longer, and would absorb the years, which it is hoped may be spent in extending the industrial important of the town. This is a mat ter in which everyone is concerned, and it calls for attention from f everyone. 4-------a--------- ! Numbers on Buildings in Business SectionAre Suggested It has been noted that very few of the buildings in the business section^of Thames street are,num bered. In that section there are many residential apartments, all with street entrances. To say that they are over a certain store, does not fully define their location for there might be an apart ment entrance on each side of the store building. As one business man remarked, when in search of a certain place, to which he had been directed, “there was a tithe when one knew -where practic ably every person in town lived. But conditions have changed during the past fifty years.” It did not take people long to recognize the convenience of having the houses in town num bered, and it Is probable that numbers on build ings in the business section would be found equally convenient THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JAN. 29, 1948Looking Back — In the — Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario 48 YEARS AGO Thursday, January 26th, 1900 PERSONALS Miss McDonald has left for Toronto to attend school.

Deachma* this, for, according to all precedent,it will not happen. I only say Itmight happen if ye decided to hold on to our money until the Canadian dollar woud buy as much as it did in 1926.• • • I was in Montreal yesterday. It’s a fine old city and it’s different. There is no other city quite like it. 1 said to a taxi driver: “This city needs many things.” He gave a good answer: “Above everything else”, he said, “this city needs honest men.” I did not pass an opinion on his judgment, he knows more about Montreal than I do. THEN AND NOW When I came home I looked back at an item I had written about Mon treal almost exactly three years ago. Here it is: No taxi-cabs were in sight when I came out of the office of my friend, so I walked along the narrow canyon of St. James St I looked for pirates and buccan eers, but it was not a good day for either. I examined the wails of the stately buildings. Some It’s worth while now and then to contemplate, in all aeriousnesa, how little we know. I have before me a booklet print ed in 1944. It was published by “Barron’s” one of the most thought ful and competent American finan cial journals. Broadly, its implica tions were that serious inflation after the war was not at all probable. It states the case in this fashion: “Economic students for some time past have generally stressed the inflationary gap as threaten ing higher prices.” “The gap” represents the dif ference in the amount of money being put in the pockets of citizens by government expenditures during a war and the quantity of goods available to meet current demands. In war we expect a heavy increase in the production of armaments, a decline in the production of civilian goods. In war the gap can be closed by heavy taxation, plus heavy sales of government bonds to everybody * except the commercial banks. This was the pattern of finance in every democratic country. What happened The production of civilian goods has been higher than anybody thought possible. Pri vate savings have grown at highest rate in history, the effect of the in crease of savings is practically the same as the payment of taxes and the purchase of bonds. place or other there must be a weesmall tiny crack in the foundationstones of wealth and opulence. Nothing doingl To all outward appearances they hadn't heard that Mr. Douglas of Saskatche wan was going to nationalize, or rather provincialize, the indus- triea of Saskatchewan. fie will start with a fish filleting plantanw a woollen mill. I’ll bet youdollars to holes in doughnuts that 8t. James Street knows that this is to be done, but it isn’t worry ing. It will still be a centre of finance when industry in Saskat chewan goes back to “rolling its own.” The inflation did not become ser ious until after the war. At least it was not so great during war-time as might have been expected. This increase in savings reflected, in the United States and in Canada, a vigorous determination to win the war plus a desire to have a nest egg left over in case post-war inflation ended in post-war depression. After the war there was a heavy demand for goods, the savings pro vided purchasing power and there fore a heavy volume of production and employment right up to the present- We have found out through the experience of war that our cap acity to produce and now I write of both Canada and the United States, is far beyond our previous concept ions.• • • Now’ we are confronted by a new problem. Prices, since the war, have advanced sharply, employment is still high, spending is high and the problem is how to bring down the in flation balloon without puncturing it.In Canada and the United States we are now inflation conscious. That is we see the difficulty. We are su premely anxious to provide a soft spot on which to fall. We try to place all the responsibility for everything that happens upon the govern ment. Condemnation of our own con duct is not a popular pastime but the people have within their power the capacity to strike a sharp blow at high prices.• • • There is a shift in spending power, the volume of passenger traffic on the railways has fallen off, the lower priced hotels are getting a larger share of the business, people are be ginning to discriminate. Men no lon ger want to pay $10 for a new hat. I looked at mine this morning and de cided that rather than pay $10 for a new hat I could wear the old one for many years. $50 is too much for an ordinary suit, as for shirts they are beyond the far horizon. The old ones are going to last a good deal longer. This curtailed expenditure will in time have its effect. It is hu manly possible, if we act with wis dom, that the inflation balloon may be landed without an explosion.

Appreciation was also ex pressed for the Board’s interest in the upkeep of the building and for the newly surfaced floors, as well as for the excellent service rendered by the caretaker, William Rodwell, Miss Crawford expressed pleasure over the co-operation shown by the Collegiate Institute in the use of the Library, with hope for a contifbance of this close association. She added that this is one feature of community life urged by the Canadian Youth Council. Miss Helen Furlong has replaced Miss Molly Heenan, who did such valuable work in the children’s de partment during the past three years. Thanks were also expressed to the JIress for giving space to Library activities and book reports. Three hundred new members joined the library in 1947, A total of 44,642 books were circulated. Adult fiction circulated dropped slightly, but more non-fiction circu lated to make up for it, while the number of children’s books circulated was practically the same. Approxim ately 2600 books were used for ref erence purposes in the library and 1100 periodicals and pamphlets cir culated. The Librarian gave four book talks at the Collegiate Institute last year, as well as a talk on the way Mte-e a library, to each of the three sections of the first form. As a result of the latter. 30 new members were en rolled. The Library has been opened at the noon hour one day a week, in order to accommodate rural students who must leave town by bus promptly at four o'clock. From 20 to 30 stu dents take advantage of this service. Miss Crawford gave a talk on the librarian’s profession at the recent Vocational Guidance Night. Thirteen classrooms in the public schools and seven rural teachers borrowed col lections. totalling approximately 4000 books. Other interests centering around the library are: The Book Club, of which Mrs. L. W. Porter is president, holding nine meetings during the year; art exhibits, nine belonging to the circuit operated by the London Public Library, and two of local work ■. the art club, and the children’s art ejasses, both of which met weekly from autumn to spring. From all the foregoing it will be readily seen that the Ingersoll Public Library has a strong educational in fluence on both the adults and youth of the community. Members of the Library Board and •Miss Crawford are to be commended for making such a valuable service available to all. Fine CongregationsAt Special Services Large congregations attended the services at St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church on Sunday .At 11 a.m. the Very Rev. C. H. MacDonald, moder ator of the Presbyterian Church in Canada, was the guest speaker. He delivered a powerful sermon based on the text, “What must I do to be saved?”, the words of the Philippian jailor to Paul and Silas, after their release from the prison following an earthquake and the safety of all the prisoners was assured. The choir rendered the anthem, ‘“0 For a Closer Walk with God”, with Harry Edmonds taking the baritone solo parts. The junior choir rendered a number during the offer tory and a duet, *'My Faith Looks Up To Thee”, was sung by Mrs. A. G. Murray and Mrs. Robt. Wark. Carl Edmonds presided at the organ and conducted the choirs. Following the morning service, Rev. MacDonald attended the Sun day School session and delivered a short address to the pupils and pro nounced the benediction. At the evening service, Rev. Jos. Muchan, missionary to Jhansi, India, was the guest speaker and he out lined in a very interesting manner some of the systems of worship and modes of living in that great country. Following the service a film of moving pictures was shown, with Mrs. Muchan giving a commentary of the scenes as thrown on the screen. She also demonstrated the mode of dress used by her in India and explained the different castes and their religious systems. A splen did congregation attended for this Service and enjoyed the pictures immensely. During the evening service the choir sang the anthem, “By Cool Siloam.” Carl Edmonds presided at the organ, and during the service Rev. Murdoch expressed appreciation to Mr. Edmonds for his splendid service to the church during his term as organist and choirleader for the past two years.

DUNN HARDWARE YQUR^r^-DEftLER W EALTH The farm, the forest, the mine and the seas are the fundamental sources of Canada’s wealth. It takes con structive effort to make them pay. Obstructive and destructive effort does not add to wealth. Efonomic systems may try to control the wealth after it is created and some may even try to rob the producer and creator of the reward for his effort. What we need is production and creation of more wealth. There are too many poor in the world—not too many rich. Liver is liver, no matter what kind you buy Calves liver, pork, iamb or beel liver, all have similar food values They contain vitamins Bl, and B2,in addition to other vitamins andvaluable minerals. But let’s notget too dietetic about It; for in spiteof the fact that liver is “good foryou,** it can be made into dishesthat taste good. On Its Own "And don’t sneak It on the family." remarked the chef. “Liver isan independent meat and it canstand on its own. It is not a goodplan to grind it up with beef for ameat loaf. The men do not like tohave something put over on them.But they will eat a good piece ofliver if it is prepared in a nice dishlike liver saute with onions, broiledliver with bacon and mushrooms, orliver Creole style. Of course, likeall strong-flavored meats, it mustbe carefully prepared and cooked.Enough fat is needed to make ittaste right*’If the liver is to be sliced, gel thebutcher to do it; about >4 inch thickis right Delicate and TenderCalves' liver may be cooked as is,for it comes from an immature animal. and is delicate in flavor andtender, without tough veins. Butpork, lamb and beef liver all needspecial preparation before cookingto remove the strong taste and todiscard the tough veins and outer skin.To do this, put the sliced liver ina shallow bowl so the pieces are notpiled together. Cover with boilingwater, let stand a minute and drain.Then pull off the outer skin, and cutout the tough veins. The liver, nomattcr.what kind, is then ready tobe made into any one of the manyappetizing dishes. Using Left-Over Liver If any conked liver is left overit may be put through the chopper,mixed with a little fried onion,chopped hard cooked egg. andenough cold gravy or tomato catsupi to bold it together, and be used asa sandwich filling. Or make it intoliver terrapin.I To do this, dice cooked liver ofany kind Add 1 or 2 sliced hardI evoked eggs, a tew .sliced stuffedolives. ly in a liquid just below the boiling point Cut in: To distribute a solid mixture in small pieces evenly through a dry mixture, using a cut ting motion. Fold: To combine, using a mo tion beginning down through the mixture, continuing across the bot tom of the bowl and ending with an upward and over motion. Infuse: To steep without boiling. Knead: To roll and press firmly with the heel of the hand. Marinate: To mix with ttij^oil and acid mixture and chill. Mask—To cover completely, as with sauce. Truss—To fasten tightly. THE QUESTION BOX Miss R. MeV. asks: How do you achieve success in making a light sponge cake? Answer—Here are the rules to follow: Use level measurements. Use cake or all-purpose flour and sift once before measuring and three times afterwards. Use a spatula or blunt-edged knife for cutting and folding in the well- beaten egg whites. (A spoon will flatten the egg whites and make the cake heavy.) Do not overmix the batter—fold only until egg white particles arc the size of peanuts. Do not grease sponge cake tin. Bake in slow oven (not more than 300 degrees.) Never attempt to remove sponge cake from the pan until it is cold, but keep it inverted over a rack after taking from the oven. Mr-. T. B. asks: If a layer cake is not done in the time and at the exact temperature specified, would it be better next time Ho leave it in lon ger at the heat stated or should the cake be baked at a higher temper ature for the specified time? Answer: If following a reliable tested recine, always use the temper ature specified. The length of time for baking at that temperature may vary anywhere from 5 to 15 min utes. If the cake does not appear to be baked in the length of time given in the recipe, leave it in the oven a few minutes longer. When the cake shrinks away a little from the sides of the pan and is firm and springy on top, it is safe to take it out of the oven. Do not increase the tem perature as this may cause uneven rising or cracking. Fr ee Get Your Copy of the NEW FARM ACCOUNT BOOK at Your Local Post O ffice You’ll like this NEW Farm Account Book.

DEPARTMENT OF NATIONAL REVENUE (Taxation Division) Hello Homemakers and Class mates! We certainly appreciate the letters from Home Science students as we recall school days—as a mat ter of fact we really never have fin ished studying. They say, there is nothing new under the sun, but there -is a lot to be gained from ex perience and research. Not so long ago. there were only 5 vitamins, now we have heard of about 18, You ask what useful purpose do vitamins serve? Vitamins are often referred to as protective foods, because their presence is indispensable to good health and normal growth. The max imum benefit cannot be derived from the building foods if vitamins are absent. Vitamins not only maintain a healthy and active condition of all parts of the body, but also dir ectly assist in resisting disease. Each vitamin has a special function. Vitamin A defends the body against infections, particularly the eye, ear and respiratory tract. V itamin B helps to maintain a strong, active digestive system and so prevents indigestion and constipation. Vitamin C protects the skin, teeth and bones. Vitamin D is instrumental in the formation and protection of hard bones and teeth. Vitamin B-2 helps to prevent ner vous and digestive disturbances. It is good, to remember that the fresher the/food, the mort valuable is the vitamin content. The potency of the vitamins is reduced when the food in which they are present is cooked or stored. Exceptions to this are cannedjbod and pressure cooked food, because in both instances, the method of preserving is air-tight and the cooking time is reduced to a minimum. MUGGS AND SKEETER COOKERY TERMS AND DEFINITIONS Baste: To ladle water, dripping or other liquid over food while bak ing or roasting.

Dick was sure his timehad come. His fingers got numb again,white at the ends before he had finished. The wound was notbleeding any more, but he had lost too much blood. The fire wasnot giving out enough heat. Ho could prolong the agony a little or be prodigal with the wood, ina final gesture. It would not be a bard death. He was getting sleepy anyhow. If ho flung on the last of thefuel he could coil up in his blankets and, by the time the firehad died down, he would be un conscious. dying down also, in his slumber. traders, English, French, Scotchfor the most part, with whom the young squaws had mated, wereof a superior race. He did know that the results of these unions almost inevitably brought out theworst traits of either side and eliminated the best. The ipalebreeds stole and lied and drank, they had no regard for the ritesof their mothers, they felt them selves despised by the comradesand compatriots of their fathers. The Old Order was changing. Nipegosls reveled in memories. Hisheroes were ghosts. His race was vanishing, his own race almostrun. He was glad enough to live now in a white man's lodge. The cabin he bad taken over had once been the store at White Rock.It was well enough built of logs with a dirt roof and consisted ofone large room th^t wqs roughly floored with planks. It had two windows, now screened by frost.There was a chimney and a big drum stove of cast iron, left behind in the disgusted exodus of the prospectors and the trader. It burned wood of all shapes and through scores of years, inherited, some of It. Skulls of bear and bison painted with various devices, old baskets whose patterns were runes. Rattles, war clubs and tomahawks with which to fight the evilspirits. Medicine drums, caraq£ spears and wands of ceremony', decorated with tufts of feathers.Wooden bowls carved in weird de signs. Plumed bonnets, madksthat represented totem birds and beasts, set with teeth carved from cachalot Ivory, eyed withshell nacre brought from the Big Salt Water to the west. Emptyshells of terrapin, antlers, curious ly twisted growth of trees, medi cine bags, herbs, skins of martenand ermine. Mats and blankets. A totem pole, carved and painted, that reached to the roof — thefamily tree of Nipegosls. An hour before, an Indian haddriven his dog sled swiftly through the deserted street of White Rockand left with the Conjuror the hind quarters of a freshly killed moose. It was tribute as muchas kindly service. He spoke brief ly and vanished in the growing MOUNT ELGIN A th ird thought struggledthrough his tiring mind. MacLeod had relied upon him to keep thismission secret. What about the sealed message to Nipegosls?Would it be delivered, still seal ed? But then it might no too late. He must keep faith with MacLeod,aside from the money. The frost seemed to have gotinto his brain. It too was getting numb. The skeleton hands were about his heart •gain. He couldlight them- off With the rest of the wood, go to sleep comfortable. But—what about, the letter to Nipegosls? There was only one thing to do —destroy It, at the last minute.And that was now. Something*stirred in him. His manhood,, getting its back againstthe wall,1 for support in a Idst stand. There was not one chance in a million of his survival, save by magic or by miracle. But hecould still tight for a while, fignt off the growing sluggishness ofhis blood, the stupidity in his brain, and feed the fire carefully, play the game to the last card. When the last stick was burn ing through he would burn theletter—and go to sleep. The numbness was mounting Inhis limbs, laying siege to the body, but his wound b?gan tothrob in pulsing beats of pain. The frost was getting into it. Well, it would help him to keepawake. Ho pushed the unburned endsof faggots Into the central ring of etnbers. There were five sticksleft, each about the thickness of his wrist, less than halt the length •t his arm, a feeble barricadeagainst the inevitable end. NIPEGOSIS no longer lived asdid his fathers, nor as he himself had oncel lived. The tribes had dwindled, they bad blended withthe white man who had taken away their land and who nowbound them by his own laws in stead of their own tribal statutes,made in wisdom and understand ing of their natures. Hut there w$s something left,and the leaveh of it was with Nlpegosis. Thej^ did not Interfere with him. He was free to go and come, the tribesmen were per mitted to kill at will the gamethat was still plentiful. So long as they did not break the whiteman’s laws, as set forth by the white warriors who came mountedand scarlet-coated tn summer, by sled and afoot in winter, fur-parkaed, there was not much trouble. Nipegosls no longer dreamed,as he bad when younger, of mak ing magic and calling the warriorsto war against otber tribes, dr against the 'whites. He was veryold Md very wise, was Nipegosls, He could still make magic, still hear the spirits, whisper whenhe crossed the border of their kingdom in bls trances. He oould•oretall the future, though he did not care to go far, for ft madehis heart heavy. Soon there would bo no more of his race. Ono thing that saddened him greatly was the half-breeds. Hispride of race would not permit him to think that the trappers and “Old Nipegosls wsorts and sizes, and threw out a radiant heat that was comfortingto the old bones of Nipegosls. There were odds and ends of furnishings, including a counter and shelves. Firewood was piledhigh—short logs, chunks, split-up roots and pine knots. The tribesmen of Nipegosls had done this against the long winter for theirConjuror. They did not treat him as it had'been tbe custom to treat other elders who could no longerprovide for themselves. Old Nipegosls was a wizard still. They hud seen wonderfulthings he had performed—and heard of more. They still regarded him with an inherent super stitious awe. The breeds might jeer at him, but the bloods knewmisfortune would overtake them it they neglected Nipegosls. He had no disciples. He was the last Conjuror of his tribe. He was very old and he had littlestrength. His head, projecting from the blanket that envelopedhim, was bald and looked like the head of a turtle with its prom inent nose, beady, filmy eyes andskin like water-soaked and sun- dried leather. His hand shook as he filled and lit his pipe. After the exertion of putting a chunk in the stove he sat exhausted,trembling. Old,, very old. and very wise.The success of his magic came a great deal from his long knowledge of the ways of men and of Nature. It is possible that inbls trances his subconscious mind worked out various problems and announced prophecies based uponobservation long stored, released by the state of swoon, with thevital functions very low but the subnormal brain alert. Many of his predictions had come trne, more and more ashis yearn advanced. Magic is tho secret of the unknown and, with out question, Nipegosls had ways and means of obtaining know ledge that others could not guess.Add such matters to bls own in nate wisdom and he producedwizardry. There were few occasions nowupon which to practice ft. few to witness it, even when the remnants of the tribe made White Rock their headquarters in spring, summer and fall. But the room was stocked with the parapher nalia of his profession, gathered is a wizard stllL**dusk. Marion MacLeod did notsee him, busy in the cabin she and her broth£> occupied. WillMacLeod was out after game him self, to feed his dogs. ; Marlon set out food for him on tho back of their stove against/his return, ate her own supper, filled a pall with broth for Nipe- gosls, took a lantern and went tothe wizard's house, close-wrapped against the bitter cold. She had been calling on Nipegosls at leastonce a day since their arrival. A trader’s niece, born to listen to It,she could speak his tongue well enough, as could her brother; though Nipegosls sometimes usedwords and strung phrases she could not understand, scraps of a dying tongue already discardedby tho present generation. She knew nothing of the moosequarters. The wind had filled in the light trail of runners and rpaws with drift. Light showed dimly through tho ice-glazed windows of tho Conjuror's house. His two lamps were of stone, with animal fat for fueland elder pitch for wicks. Through a chink or two the fire glared from the stove. The place smelledlike a museum. A blanket had been thrown overtho meat by tbe hunter at the re quest of Nipegosls. He did notcare to have it known that he had had a visitor, that he bad received news. Such knowledgemight be turned to power and, while there might be none topractice ft upon, old custom swung him to secrecy. What he thought of the white girl, of her brother, he did not reveal. He did not show what hemight know about their affaire nor even their identities. Undoubtedly he knew a great deal, one way and another. Will MacLeod approved of his sister’s visits. Ho had a reasonfor that. If Nipegosls opened up he might help him a great deal in the matter that had made himchoose White Rock for a hiding place, provided he could win thewizard's gratitude or friendship. It was certain that Nipegoslswould not be ungrateful, would not care to remain under an obligation so long as he was normal, but Will MacLeod wanted something Nipegosls might well eoS- slder far too great.

XidANADA is heavily "in the red" in present trading with the U.S. dollar area. In our total trade with the world we are in a good position but not in that part which is done with U.S. dollar countries. Other countries with whom we do business cannot pay us in full, either in cash or in goods, for the things they buy from us. This situation is made more serious than ever before because so many countries, our regular customers, have not recovered from the war. It may be some time yet before they get on their feet sufficiently to help put things right. Meantime, we must find ways and means of balancing our own books and reducing our U.S. dollar deficit. There are two things we can do at the moment... cut down unnecessary purchases from the U.S. dollar area and increase our production of goods that can be sold to those countries to balance accounts. It's an emergency and should be treated as such. _ TO KEEP OUR INDUSTRIES HUMMING...OUR LIVING ST) OIL WE CAN I OUR SPEI OR TRIM YOU LRD -■ H r HIGH, WE NEED PETROLEUi COAL, COTTON, S# ,x AND SIMILAR ESsriTTI |Y FOR THESE DING ON IMPC Sings ; -. a FEL IAL THINGS THINGS IF WE CURTAIL »TED NON-ESSENTIALS IT LEAST FOR AWHILE IADIAN CAN HELP: 3.
