Only Newspaper Published in Ingersoll INGERSOLL, ONTARIO,, THURSDAY, FEB. 26, 1948 Single Copy - 6 Cents - <2.00 Per Annum ■ U.S.A., $2. $0 Bell Singers Gave Fine Program To Capacity Audience The fourth- and final concert of the series sponsored by the Provin­ cial Department of Education in con­ junction with the Ingersoll Collegiate Institute was held on Friday even­ ing in Trinity United Church, which was packed with an audience eager to hear the Leslie Bell Singers of Toronto, well known in concert and radio programs. This choir of young women, who were making their first appear­ ance in Ingersoll, fulfilled the high­ est expectations of their audience. Under the capable direction of Dr. Leslie Bell, they presented a pro­ gram full of interest and variety, in which several novel features were evident, such as the number of voices; more than are usually found in a women’s choir, giving it a depth and richness of tone. The singers’ positions being changed for several numbers; and also the grouping of different voices choir, were innovations which achieved a pleasing effect. Outstanding also was the spirit of harmony existing between conductor and singers, indicating skilled leader­ ship leavened by sufficient informal­ ity to achieve co-Operation at its best. It was not long before this pleasant spirit spread to the audi­ ence the whole assemblage becoming one huge group of people enjoying an evening of music together. The program was divided into three parts. In the first part, Music of the Masters, the most outstanding were Gounod’s “Ave Maria", and a choral rhapsody from “The Mikado.” In the second, consisting of folk songs of North America, hearty applause was given to the negro spir­ itual, “Couldn’t Hear Nobody Pray", and “Jesous Ahatonhia”, adapted from the Huron Indians." Music for the radio was included ih the third group with such numbers as “Dry Bones", “Annie Laurie", and a fantasy from “Oklahoma", being most impressive—the latter number especially bringing forth tremendous applause, which, was generously re- spon3e<rio with several encores. Principal J. C. Herbert of the Ing­ ersoll Collegiate Institute, addressed the audience, and expressed apprecia­ tion of the splendid turnout and for the support given the whole series. He introduced Major Brian McCool, Assistant Director of Music for the Ontario Department of Education, who also expressed pleasure in the large audience. He explained the aim of the department in sponsoring the series of concerts, which was to en­ courage an appreciation of good music; to give young artists an opportunity to perform in public and to give people in small communities an opportunity to share some of the advantages enjoyed in larger centres. because of having indicated an in­ terest in good music, Ingersoll had been favoured by having this partic­ ularly good choir. Major McCool ex­ pressed the hope that other young musicians might be encouraged by what has been accomplished. It is a safe prophesy that the Leslie Bell Singers may feel assured of a hearty welcome when next they come to Ing­ ersoll.

Herbert also in a few appropriate remarks, thanked the Music Club for their assistance in promoting the concerts. Harley R. McBeth Elected Insurance Company President The annual general meeting of the policy holders of the Derehnm and West Oxford Mutual Fire Insurance Company, was held on Tuesday, February 17th, in the Community Hall, Mount Elgin. Reports submitted were highly sat­ isfactory and gave every indication of the company’s affairs being in a ] strong position. Insurance in force at the end or 1947 was $3,941,665, an increase of $139,185.20 over/ 1946. Re-insurance for other companies totals $2,853,766.75. Comparatively light losses, valued at $10,819.03, were met, towards which the sum of $3,975.14 was re­ ceived for re-insurance on losses, making the net outlay, $6,843.89. This low figure on losses was attained by co-operation on the part of the policy holders, who were commended therefore, and also urged to exercise vigilance in eliminating all fire haz­ ards around their property. Following the general meeting, the board of directors met, with the re­ tiring president, C. S. Williams of Mount Elgin, in the chair. Harley R. McBeth was elected president for 1948; W. O. Harris, vice-president, and the following as directors: S. E. Allin, R. H. Mayberry, John W. Smith, C. S. Williams. A. D. Robin­ son and Ira M. Harris were re­ appointed auditors, with Alex. Amos continuing as secretary-treasurer. A pleasant social time was enjoyed . at the close of the meeting when re­ freshments were served by Mesdames Jams Hurd, H. E. Freeman and Har- ’ old Mohr. This proved so enjoyable : that it was proposed to make it a i regular feature of all future annual meetings. Chamber of Commerce Held Annual Meeting The annual meeting of the Inger­ soll Chamber of Commerce, was held on Tuesday evening in St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church Sunday School Hall. President Robt. Carr was in charge of the meeting. A sumptuous dinner was served by the Ladies Aid of the church under the convenersihp of Mrs. Robt. Hutt, assisted by mem­ bers of the Guild. Acting Mayor Thos. J. Morrison, gave a short address of appreciation to the Chamber of Commerce for their co-operation with the council and for helpful suggestions for the betterment of the community. The election of directors was con­ ducted and during the counting of the votes by Messrs. A. J. Kennedy and Gordon Tingle, other business was proceeded with. Secretary Snider gave a very full and comprehensive resume of the activities of the Cham­ ber and J. R. Henley presented the treasurer’s report. An interesting report on Town Planning was presented by S. L. Shelton. He gave information gleaned from a recent two-day con­ vention in London, and pointed out the advantages to be derived from a program of town planning. Indus­ trial growth and possibilities for •broadening out will benefit by the project and many small towns are taking the initial steps to put plan­ ning into operation. Mr. Shelton sug­ gested that Ingersoll Council should put into effect by-laws to create zoning and restrictive building as a start toward town planning locally and presented a resolution asking the council to take immediate action in passing such by-laws. The resolution was seconded by J. R. Henley and passed by the meeting. A vote of thanks to the ladies of the church was given by John W. Miller and graciously accepted by Mrs. Hutt on behalf of the Ladies Aid.The result of the election of dir­ ectors was as follows: For one year, P. M. Dewan, J. R. Henley, A. E. Izzard, R. G. Start and E. A. Wilson; for two years, Robert Carr, R. A. Stone, R. W. Green, G. B. Henry and L. A. Westcott. The guest speaker of the evening, Mr. A. Conacher of Hamilton, sec­ retary of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade, was introduced by R. G. Start, K.C., who took for his subject, "The Positive Outlook in the World To-Day.” a In opening his address, Mr. Coff- acher suggested that everything an individual sees is not what it appears to be, another person viewing the same situation getting another view­ point entirely. The Chamber of Commerce has a task to create co­ operation and community interest and provide an opportunity for the business man to share his experience and ability to make a better com­ munity to live in. He pointed out that the casting of a vote does not end the responsibility of an elector, but should continue to pass on advice to the elected representative. The Chamber of Commerce provides the avenue for these suggestions to be passed on to the legislators. The need of the democratic coun­ tries to-day, the speaker suggested, was production, not a series of strikes. The latter only brings on retrogression in place of advance­ ment. Labor management or gov­ ernment have never always been right, neither have they been always | wrong, but with mutual accord pro- 1 gress can become an accomplished fact. The country has become a nation of specialists in practice and not sufficient time is given to human thought with the result that educa­ tional progress has been retarded. Mr. Conacher recommended as a cue for world strife that we become part of the large world family, politically and religiously. He predicted that in twenty-five years time southwestern Ontario’s population will have grown to ten million people of thought and action.Gordon Henry expressed the appreciation of the gathering to Mr. Conacher for his address. Parks Board Ready For Busy Year The organization meeting of Ing­ ersoll Parks Board for 1948 was held on Tuesday, February 17th. L. J. Martin was elected as chairman and A. J. McKenzie as secretary. Other officers are: Chairman of Allocation Committee, W. W. Wilford; Chair­ man Victoria Park, Jas. N. Hender­ son; Chairman Dr. Carroll Memorial Park, S. H. Underwood; Chairman Trees Committee, H. I. Stewart It was decided that the Parks Board will meet the third Tuesday of each month. H. I. Stewart gave a re­ port on what had been accomplished in town regarding trees. It was pointed out that any citizen desiring the removal of a tree or trimming that the committee should be advised before work is started. In making reservation for pic­ nics, reunions, etc., all arrangements should be made through W. W. Wil­ ford. The Memorial Park has had in­ creased demands each year and it was felt that 1948 will see the park in even greater demand. Diocese of Huron Secretary Speaker At St. James’ Church Ven. Archdeacon Townsend of Lon­ don, secretary of the Diocese of Huron, delivered the sermon at St. James’ Anglican Church on Sunday morning. The rector, Rev. Carman J. Queen, had charge of the service. Speaking on the theme, “In His Steps,” Archdeacon Townsend com­ bined a Lenten and missionary mes­ sage, in which he pointed out the similarity between the command for service given to the disciples and the requirements for Christian living to­ day. Archdeacon Townsend has many friends in Ingersoll who enjoy his visits to St. James’ Church. The choir under the direction of G. Strickland Thompson, A.V.C.M., choirmaster, rendered the anthem, “Send Out Thy Light.” At the evening service, members of the Evening Guild of the Parish, attended the service in a body, when, the rector delivered a most impress­ ive sermon. Next Sunday, Very Rev. G. N. Luxton, Deacon of St. Paul’s Cathe­ dral, London, will occupy the pulpit both morning and evening, while the rector, Rev. Carman J. Queen will be at St. Paul’s Cathedral. Mount Elgin Milk Products Company Annual Meeting Mt.

HENRY JUDD PICKED PANSIES IN GARDEN ON FEBRUARY 23 Snow and ice are cold reminders that winter, having come, is still here. But there are other signs that spring is not far behind. Henry Judd, King street west, picked pansies in his garden on Monday, February 23. Another citizen reporta having seen a flock of wild ducks flying over the town last Friday; while a third per­ son saw two crows during a walk in the country on Sunday. Now who can report the first run of sap? EX MODERATOR SPEAKER TRINITY UNITED CHURCH A large congregation attended Trinity United Church on Sunday morning, when the special speaker was Rev. Jesse H. Arnup, D.D., for­ mer moderator of the United Church of Canada, and now head of its Overseas Missionary Enterprise. Introduced by the pastor of the church. Rev. C. D. Daniel, Dr. Arnup gave a very interesting account of the Church Conference at Whitby last summer, which he termed, “an international conference that did not break down.” Representatives from 40 countries attended the conference each one reporting on conditions in their own country, in regard to Chris­ tian work. Dr. Arnup explained the purpose of the conference to be to foster a spirit of fellowship and to realize the possibility and need of a universal church; to receive reports on how the churches in those coun­ tries had survived the war; and to plan for the position to be occupied y the Church in the New World. Reports on conditions in certain countries seriously affected by the war .were mentioned by Dr. Arnup, giving his hearers a very comprehen­ sive idea of the relationship existing between themselves and the Chris­ tians of other countries, and of the opportunities for all working to­ gether in the future. At the evening service, conduct­ ed by the pastor, a rpligious talking picture, “Beyond Our Own,” replaced the usual sermon. This picture re­ lated incidents in the lives of two brothers, one a doctor, the other a lawyer. Certain circumstances led the former to forego a successful career at home, and to go to China as a missionary. The other brother pur­ suing his legal practice met with mis­ fortune, which threatened to wreck his life, until on going to visit his brother in China, he found the ans­ wer to his quest for worthwhile liv­ ing. At the morning service, Donald Young sang, “When Children Pray”, and in the evening, Mrs. R. Bradfield sang, “Hear My Supplication." GIRLS’ MISSION BAN& MAKE PLANS FOR TEA The Mary Slessor Mission Band of St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church held its regular meeting Friday, February 20th, in the ladies’ parlours, with the president, Isabella Hutson, in the chair. Jean Hoag gave the Scripture reading. The members enjoyed two delightful piano solos by Barbara Smith. The girls practised songs for thp tea which they plan to hold in the near future. The meeting closed with the Lord’s Prayer. Refreshments were provided by Miss Cuthbert.* The next meeting will be on March 5th. Public School Rooms Becoming Crowded A meeting of the public school board was held in the council cham­ ber on Monday evening with Chair­ man C. A. Ackert presiding and al! members present. Teh report of Principal A. G. Mur­ ray was presented and gave a thor­ ough picture of activities at the schools. The average daily attendance at Victory Memorial and Princess Elizabeth Schools is 770 of a total enrollment of 838 and was considered quite satisfactory. Usual amount of sickness among pupils during the month was reported, and no supply teachers have been necessary in Feb­ ruary. The Oxford County and Ingersoll Health Unit administered vaccination and toxoids on Monday at the schools. Mr. Murray spoke very highly of the benefits from "The outdoor rinks, four solid weeks of good ice had been en­ joyed without a single day missed. Student teachers have had some radical service from the normal schools at Hamilton and London. Mr. Murray announced that the Memorial Bugler will be issued in March and Open House will be o!>- served the latter part of April, while arrangements have been made for the annual Empire Day Concert on Wednesday. May 19th. at the Com­ munity Centre. He also advised the board of some necessary equipment and improvements which includes extra chairs for the music room, im­ proved lighting in the schools and some painting. Principal Murray advised the board that an increasing number of dogs congregate on the school grounds. They apparently follow their young masters to the door of the school and then get into groups and do damage to the property and create a nuisance and a menace to the children on the grounds. Princi­ pal Murray also advised the board of the increasing need for more accom­ modation. It is possible that in Sep­ tember an extra room will be needed and it is a certainty that two grades will have.to be assigned to one room. An effort will be made to ascertain the number of beginners that will be starting school life in Septembei. Indications point to the necessity of an increased staff in 1949. Two kin­ dergarten classes will be necessary at Princess Elizabeth School and will in the course of events call for a building program. The establishment of an oportun- ity class was advised by Mr. Murray, where pupils who are not able to make the same progress as their class mates may have a specially trained teacher and they will be able to acquire an education much easier than otherwise. A resolution was passed sponsored by Trustees Pellow and Leaper, that in view of the increased attendant in the kindergarten and limited space available, each year, parents present birth certificates with regis­ trations of new pupils. After considerable discussion it’ was moved by Trustees Henry and Leaper that the Public School Board approve of a voluntary collection for the Canadian Appeal for Children, through the public schools. It was pointed out that the funds will pro­ vide the means for children in Euro­ pean countries to get education that has been denied them through the war years. The board went into committee of the whole to complete their estimates for 1948 and the following require­ ments will be presented to the town council for their aprovnl: Total amount of expenditures. *14,921: es­ timated receipts $23,085, leaving $41,836 to be raised by taxation. INGERSOLL GUIDES AND SCOUTS ON THE AIR Many people in Ingersoll listened with interest to a radio program on Tuesday evening, February 17, from Station CKOX, Woodstock, in which a group of Boy Scouts and Girl Guides from Ingersoll took part. This was the first time they had broadcast as a group. A. E. Izzard, president of the Ing­ ersoll Boy Scout Local Association, and George Lockhart, secretary, both spoke briefly on the Scout movement Others on the program and introdu­ ced by Mr. Izzard were: Brownie, Beth Tunney; Guide, Betty Jones; Cubs, James Thaine, Barry Rout­ ledge, Ralph Shipton; Seouts, George Rodwell, William Montgomery; Rov­ ers, Tom Staples, John Hutson. These girls and boys representing troops, packs and crews, gave their respective messages relating to the work being carried on in the many lands where Guides and Scouts are preparing for citizenship. Consider­ able praise was expressed for the capable manner in which the young people conducted the program- ------------THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNEThe Only Newspaper Printed in IngersollIssued Every Thursday Morning— Office ef Publication —115 Thames Street - Ingersoll.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1948 Concert Series Ends First Season Very Successfully The first series of concerts sponsored by the Provincial Department of Education has ended, and if its success in Ingersoll is indicative of that throughout the Province, its promoters may feel gratified by the results. Undertaken primarily to i encourage an appreciation of good music in young people, by supplementing the musical program of the schools, and to make good music available to communities situated off the beaten track of most concert tours, the concerts have fully justified that aim. It would be unwise to claim that every concert presented has been wholly acceptable to each audi­ ence, for a great variety of tastes must have been represented in those audiences. But it is safe to assume that each artist has been able to make some appeal to at least a part of his audience, and the appeal in some cases might have important results. Educators and those connected with youth train­ ing claim that while an instinct for sport appears naturally in young people; a taste for music, and art generally, must in the majority of cases, be developed. The quality of the taste will depend upon the type of music the^hear. There are ample opportunities for satisfying the taste for sport; but few in music. Recognizing the influence of good music in character development, the Department of Educa­ tion has wisely undertaken this cultural feature of education. An added benefit is the opportunity it ■ gives to our own Canadian artists, who too often have to leave their country in order to gain reco­ gnition, while Canadian audiences pay high prices for imported talent, which on the whole is not any better than what can be developed in Canada. Climax of the series presented in Ingersoll, was the appearance of the Leslie Bell Singers last Fri­ day evening. That in itself justified the undertak­ ing as far as this town was concerned for the in- , spiration, as well as the sheer pleasure, provided by that group of young women singing in unison, under perfect direction, while yet displaying a charming sense of individuality in each artist, will probably prove an incentive to many other young people to form musical groups. I This community has reason for gratitude to Major Brian McCool, Assistant Director of Music for the Ontario Department of Education, and in charge of music ih Secondary Schools, who has given considerable thought to arranging suitable concerts for each community. Much credit is also due to Principal J. C. Herbert and the staff of the Ingersoll Collegiate Institute for their untiring efforts in promoting the concerts locally. Town Planning Calls For United Interest All over Western Ontario, town planners are J active. One hundred and twenty-five of them met in London last week to hear the views of experts on the subject and to share ideas with each other. One outstanding impression gained from reports of the meeting is that there is a tremendous amount of planning to be done. Hon. Dana Porter, Minister of Planning and Development for the Province of Ontario, informed the gathering that the population of the Province is likely to be in­ creased by one million people within the next ten years. That alone would be sufficient reason for the need of planning. Added to that is the fact that in some cases town planning is long overdue. So that any effort made now in that connection, is simply to make up for lost time. In far too many municipalities the only town planning dgne by their founders was to define the corporation limits and mark off streets, From there on they "just grew”, with each property owner carrying out their own ideas, and giving little heed to appearance or needs of the town, as a whole. In Stratford there was) the fine example of preserving the natural beauty of the riverside area. Now the general feeling seems to be that the day for hit and miss methods is over. They do not fit in well with a mechanical age. In Ingersoll there are problems aplenty for a town planner, although more than one planner is needed here, for every citizen should consider it as part of their responsibility to take an interest in any pew plans being made for the town. Even though 'the work would of necessity, be directed by an expert, his work is more likely to be satis­ factory if it is guided by public opinion. Will The D.P’s. Open Our Eyes? The Financial Post says that, “by hundreds of thousands} of D.P’s. in scattered camps throughout the U.S.A, and British Zones of Germany, Canadaand the* United States are seen as beckoning meccas, where a person can find self-respect in work.” They are eager for the opportunity to be­ come citizens of this country and to have a share in its development. Many have arrived already and have found Work in the mines as well as in other industries. Lack of mine-workers has been one of Canada’s post-war problems. It looks as if the European DJP’s are going to make a valuable con­ tribution towards solving it The country will belong to the people who work for it The men who develop its natural resources will in; the course of time, rightfully consider it theirs. They will not be content to rake chestnuts out of the fire in order to pay increased unemploy­ ment insurance for those who are finnicky about what they do; who are not willing to adapt their talents to their country’s nqed. This is a situation in which actions will mean more than words. The Noxon Company are preparing a very beau­ tiful and extensive exhibit of the agricultural im­ plements for the Paris World’s Fair. The display will be on display at the store opposite ths Mac- Murray House and next to the Royal Old Hotel Building, Saturday next.

"MY WEEK"R. J. Deaohmaa HELP BY ORDERINGFERTILIZER NOWDo you remember my article No.354A. It dealt with the chaps who borrowed books from me and did not return them. I’m glad I wrote that story. To b good many people it was highly amusing. It was amusing and interesting because it reflected an experience of many others. Then I received some excellent and helpful suggestions which I hope may inspire my readers to keep watch over their books as the shepherds kept watch over their flock by night. This one comes from a prominent business man of Toronto: “I consider that you are , just as careless as the other (people when you do not keep , track of where your books go. fMy method is to forward-date | a memo to come to my desk at j some time in the future, remind- ■ ing myself that so-and-so got a , loan of a book, so I am on his tail , if it is not returned. But that is a business man and (business men are thoughtful and precise and definite, they have to be. The writers, preachers, school­ teachers and even some lawyers are more or less indefinite no matter what you do with them. It is the life they lead—that is what gets them down, they are busy at one thing and then are called away to do something else and at times, I know this—my father was a teacher—they are fed up with the petty worries of life and can’t look after essential things. Then from Sault Ste. Marie comes a letter which contains this helpful suggestion, its value due to my Scotch ancestry. “Once,” he writes, “I knew a canny Scot who used to paste the price in front of his books , and with it a little note which read as follows: If thou are borrowed by a friend Right welcome shall he be To read—to study—not to lend— But to return to me. Not that imparted wisdom Doth diminish learning's store. But books, I've found if often lent Return to me no more.” Then last night a man called me up and said: “Have you, by any chance, a copy of the "Decamerone^"- I reco­ gnized his voice, but I said very sol­ emnly: “No I haven’t, that’s one of of the wicked books and it's ages since I have had a wicked book in my library, if 1 ever had any they have been borrowed by some one such as you and have returned to me no more.” Then he gave me a bright chuckle and said: “I read your story and it was bright with the thing we call human appeal. There wasn’t a soul who read that item who didn’t know what it meant for almost every man at times loans books and seldom gets them back.” Ah well these are the lighter things of life and just at the moment we have many things which are not so light but another day we shall re­ turn to the things which promote laughter for hearty laughter is one of the greatest things of life. Canada used about 325,000 tonsof fertilizers in 1939 and the estim­ated requirements for 1948 are700,000 tons. This striking increase in the use of fertilizers since 1939 has been stimulated by demands for increased food and agricultural sup­ plies from countries suffering from the after-affects of war. Because of shortages of building materials and the dfficult labour con­ ditions during this period, the fertil­ izer industry has not appreciably in­ creased its production capacity to keep pace with this greatly increased demand. Although the production capacity of the plants may be suffic­ ient to handle estimated require­ ments this year, there are other ob­ stacles which slow up production such as box-car shortages and limited storage space. With the shortage of box-cars there is not a steady flow of fertilizer material into the plants. This has already held up potash and ■ phosphate deliveries but the sit- ‘ uation has improved recently. Since the business is mostly seasonable, I being of only a few months’ duration, I storage is an additional problem. To offset these difficulties and . assure having fertilizers when they are needed, it would be advisable for dealers and farmers to take early deliveries. This would ease storage problems and allow plants to work at full’capacity. ‘Strike oh weird musician thy ’ harp strung with Apollo’s golden hairs, but know thy sweetest sounds are discords all, compared with childhood’s happy laugh, the laugh that lights the eyes with life and fills the heart with joy.” Where does that come from? I don’t know, I loaned the book in which it appeared long, long ago, it hasn’t come back. ETC CH •rS E ia D k On IMPERIAL BANKSavings Accounts future sue* SJJ-M In your past money wisely. 2.

Lindsay MOULDERS OF CANADA UNLIM ITED* BREWING COMPANY LIMITED THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, FEB 26,1948 I I 't | I .C .I. Notes |On Wednesday afternoon, Febru­ary 18th, Grades XII and XIII of theI. C..I. presented their Literary pro­ gramme to a large and appreciative student body as well as many par­ ents and friends in the town hall. The recently formed orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Currie Wilson, pre­ sented several pleasing selections prior to the opening of the meeting. The meeting was opened by Principal J. C. Herbert with the singing of “O Canada.” The Junior Boys’ WOSSA Public Speaking Contest was then held, after which the following pro­ gram was presented. The Senior Boys’ Chorus, known as “The Rambling Rangers” offered “Pass the Biscuits, Mirandy”, and^ a hilarous version of “Too Fat Polka.” The numbers brought gales of laughter from the audience as the chorus ably acted each number. Members included: Jim Williams, Jim Waring, Gordon Hinge, Dick Flenniken, Morley Hammond, Jim Muterer, Babe Morello, Mac Mead- ’ ows, Jack McDougall, Don Kerr, Bob Foster. A carefully-prepared radio broad­ cast of I.C.I. happenings was given by Bernice Martin, Dorothy Callan­ der and Viola McCorquodale. The girls made many humorous refer­ ences to students and teachers and their contribution to the program proved very popular with the audi­ ence. One of the afternoon’s highlights was the presentation of a play, “Father Goes On a Diet”, directed by Miss Kennedy. The cast included: Father, Jim Williams; mother, Doro­ thy Barnes; daughter, Virginia Har­ ris; son. Gordon Hinge; colored maid, Marge Clark; messenger, Dick Flenniken; female Job’s qpmforter, Marian Wilson. Jim Williams, in the role of the father, was possibly out­ standing in a well-chosen cast, but the entire play showed that neither time nor effort had been spared to make it a decided success. A brief report on athletic news was given in a unique manner by Mar­ garet Iloran of Grade XIII. Concluding the program was a skit which might have taken place in the immigration office in Ottawa. Jack McDougall took the part of an official who interviewed applicants for admission to Canada. Applicants were required to demonstrate their own particular talent and each mem­ ber of the cast proved superior in his or her role. The cast in order of 'appearance and number given by each was as follows: Polish girl, /Lorna Young, Prelude in C Sharp7Minor by Rachmaninoff; Irish colleen, Phyllis Cohen, “Toora-loora-loora”; Russians, Bob Jewdtt, Don Kerr, Bob Foster, Babe Morello, “Volga Boat Song”; Highlanders, Mildred Mans­ field, Kay Wade. Bernice Martin, Highland Fling; Mac Meadows, "Road To The Isles’”, on bagpipes;Hawaiians, Ruth Daniel, Helen Mat­thews, “Pagan Love Song”; NegroJim Waring, “Boogie-woogie” num­ber; Chinese, Gordon Hinge, “RicketyRickshaw Man”; Georgian, JackParkhill, accordion solo; chorus, stu­ dents of XII and XIII; school song, words composed by Miss Kennedy, under direction of Mr. Wilson, with costumes by Janet Newman. The program concluded with the singing of the National Anthem. Judging from comments overheard at the program's conclusion, this was one of the most successful Literary meetings held in several years and those present are indebted to Grades XII and XIII and their teachers, Miss Kennedy and Mr. Wilson, for a most entertaining afternoon. Results of the January competition of the Dominion of Canada Rifle Association competition have just been received. The average of the I.C.I. Cadet Corps team was 89.6. The following were members taking part in the competition: Bob Jewett, Frank Beemer, Jack McDougall, Tom Maurice, Eric Wadsworth, Babe Mor­ ello, Dick Flenniken, Carman Mott, Ken Barrow, Doug. Lockhart, Mor­ ley Hammond. Members of the Cadet Corps are competing for their recre­ ational shooting badges. Several have already qualified for the green badge for which five targets all Averaging over 75% must be scored. At the present tim» a large number of sen­ iors are qualifying for the red badge, for which ten targets all averaging over 90% must be scored. Later in the month a further competition for the Ontario Rifle Association is to be fired by a picked team of the ten best shots in the school.

ROGERS CLAIMED BY DEATH The death of Edward D. Rogers, a resident of West Oxford Township for the past 20 years, occurred on Wednesday, February 25th, at his home, Lot 22, Concession 3, West Oxford Township.

He had lived at Oregon, Ill., Chicago and in South Dakota, having been engaged as a book-keeper for the Rock Island Railroad, for many­ years prior to coming to this district to reside. He had been ill for six months and seriously ill for two weeks. He was a member of King Hiram Lodge, A. F. and A.M., Ing­ ersoll.

For more than half of the Woodstock where the Red Cross Nu­ tritionist is giving splendid leader­ ship. The average rural child has a long and strenuous day. He rises early, has a few chores to do, and then a drive or walk to school. After seven or eight hours away from home, more chores before a hot meal. All this requires energy’ and the right food to supply that energy. Building material is essential for growth if strong bodies are to result. We must also supply children with the foods ntfeessary to keep the various organs functioning, and resistant to disease. In communities where lunch plans children attending rural schools in Ontario the noon hour means a lunch carried from home in lunch kit, honey pail or paper bag. In winter weather, cold sand­ wiches make a cheerless meal. That kind of meal, added to a hurried breakfast and a iong walk in the wind, does not give exactly the sort of foundation needed for a good | day’s work! But it is a tact that for I 200 days out of every year, the child! attends school and eats his mid-day | meal there. All told, one-fifth of the (meals eaten in a year are eaten at ' school. | ‘ Surely then, the mid-day meal is of prime importance. Should it not be planned to meet definite educational objectives. Some school areas have done this; one particular section to be commended is the township north of TO CELEBRATE BIRTHDAY ON 29th Congratulations are extended to Miss Allie Hurris, Harris street, who on Sunday, February 29th, will cele­ brate her first birthday in four years.

Theirunele, Alexander had Dick Bryne de­liver a message to Nipegosis who livedat White Rock. Dick was seriouslywounded by Kinoceti. Marlon learnedfrom Nipegosis that some friend wasdying on the trail. Bill and Martonfound Dick and took him to their cot­tage. They learned that the Mountywould soon be there and Bill left tohide In a cave. Wlrtn the Mounty ar­rived he believed that the unconsciousDick waa Bin. and stayed to watchhim. “But first the Mounted Mau takes MacLeod, the nephew of theman who calls himself The Mac­ Leod, who will be humbled when the nephew bangs. Then 1 am • minded to talk with the sister, if the Mounted Man does not take her along. In that case It Is wisest not to Interfere. If you kill one of those red-coated devils they send another, and yet another. "So. although she would amuse me, we will not be foolish about that In the school they sent me to they had a tale of a dog who crossed a bridge and stopped to look at his reflection. He had a bone in his mouth, a good bone, but he dropped it into the water and tried to get the other one.which, of course, had vanished. He lost the substance tor the shadow. "I, too, have heard that story, said one of the breeds tipsily. “Then you should know what 1 am talking about.” "What Is this affair which will make us all rich?” asked another. "My friends,’’ said Kinoceti. emptying the bdttle. “You know that white miners found the gold at White Rock which the Indians knew long ago was there. We did not take it because it would havebeen taken away again immediate­ ly. So the white miners built the camp and got a lot of gold for atime. "Then-there was no more gold. The white rock reef had ended. “No one goes to White Rock for gold any more. No white man. But there Is a man named Sigonay—you know him, my friends?” "An old fool who takes a young squaw," said one ol mem. "She would not have gone to him' if 'lie bad not tempted her,” Kinoceti returned. "She Is very£oung and looks well to the eye,’’. He spolA* complacently, with a self-conscious smirk. His clothes were worn, but they were thoseof a dandy. “He has bought her many things from LaRoche, the trader at Thir­ ty Mile. Dresses, shawls, ribbons, perfume, rings. And, because he was on old tool and she was a young wife. It was not hard for her to wheedle out of him how he paid for these things. With white rock that was heavy and speckled with gold, as a trout Is speckled. "But he would not tell her where he got it until he knew he was dying of lung fever. That was last week. He is dead now. He will buy her no more gifts. Buthe told her where the white rock came from. And she told me.” “Where? At White Rock Camp? You said it was the same place where this young MacLeod stays.” "At White Rock, yes. Justwhere, I do not know. Sigonay told his squaw to ask Nipegosis. Sigonay was the son of a niece<4 Nipegosis. So maybe Nipo- gosis ,will tell his squaw, when she adks him, after she Is throughher month of mourning. In the meantime we will ask Nipegosis. 1 think it Is likely that Nipegosis told Sigonay whore to look for it, where to find the lode the whitemen lot':. Such things happen Inrock, ijhey call them faults." ”1 kpow that," broke in theprevious Interrupter. “I know,what faults are In rock. And I know also it is foolish to ask Nlpe- ' gosis where it Is. He might have told the son of his niece becauseof the blood between them, but he will not tell us.” “He'll tell me,” said Kinoceti.“I am not afraid of Nipegosis. He' does not care for gold. He la too old. He has not long to live, yet, like all men. he treasures what he has left of life. He will barterthat, with us, for the white rock. He can still saffer.”“Nipegosis is a wizard. You are crazy. He will cast a spell on us,” jald Sunl, the full-blood, energet­ ically. "They say he can change a man to stone, turn him into abeast, kill him with cramps, make him blind.”“They say?” laughed KlnocetL pain like another man. 1 tell you," he boasted, “Nipegosis will tell— and gladly. If you are not cowards.If you are, I will do this thing alone.** They did not like id And Kino* ceti did not want to' handle it alone. He would have to be drunk when he did it and be had more bottles of caribou stowed away for such an occasion. The full-blood bad walked tothe mouth of the cave. Now he called to them, pointing across the They crouched, their sight likeeagles, watching the progress of a sled on the far side of the river, beneath them, evidently makingfor the cavee. They speculated on it, a little drunk, but sharp enough tor observation, comparingnotes and comments. “It is Will MacLeod," said Kluo- ceti, dually. “I do not know what has happened, but his sister is not with him. He travels alone— and he travels fast.** “He saw the Mounted Man com­ing," said one of them. "He had time to harness his dogs. The Mounted Man 'would be on snow- were evil. He bunkered down In the mouth of the cave, watching Will MacLeod’s dogs, tiring now,laboring through slushy snow to­ ward the river. He though of Alexander Mac­ Leod. who would have employed him to string snowshoes at a fifth of what MacLeod would sell them for. Of the knowledge of the lost gold reef he would win from Nipe­gosis. Of the fools working bkek in the cave who thought be would share It with them. But, most ofall, he thought of MaMgg MacLeod. He remembered the time when she had looked at him as If he were dirt—through him, as if hehad been glass. Once in the store at Bison Crossing. He had swag­ gered in. resplendent, barbaric. It had been the day before a Saint’s Day, and the place was packed. He had gone deliberately to the counter where Marlon was helping and bought thing after thing he did not need. He gathered thearticles together at the last, paid tor them. "Do not wrap them." he hadsaid in his best school English. “They are for you.” Mrs. Joseph Morello entertained at a charmingly arranged shower on Thursday evening of last week, at the “Y”, for iMiss Doris Fleming, in honour of her approaching marriage. Forty guests were present The guest of honour’s chair was arranged in a pretty setting of pink and white streamers and pink and blue confetti-filled balloons. The laden gift table was surmounted with a white wedding bell and streamers. Misses Barbara Fleming, Iris Miller and Doreen Lemp assisted in un­ wrapping the many beaiitiful gifts, after which Miss Fleming in a grac- "If you are cowards, I will do this thine alone." The Happy-Go-Lucky euchre club met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Crane, Mt. Elgin, on Friday even­ ing, the occasion being their 30th wedding anniversary. The club sur­ prised them by holding a mock wed­ ding and remarrying the happy couple. The bride, dressed becom­ ingly in a lace table cloth nnd be­ decked with paper flowers was escort­ ed up the aisle by her bridesmaid, Laura MacKay. Two tiny flower girls, Patsy Elliott and Arlene Daw­ son carried the train. Donald Mac­ Kay supported the groom. The ser­ vice was read by James Elliott and he charged $1.95 and a bag of spuds. | jous little speech thanked her friends After the happy couple had been i for their kind remembrances and very well sprinkled with confetti, an ’ address was read by Mrs. E. Hoare and a lamp was presented by Mrs. R. Elliott. The recipients kindly expressed their thanks to their friends. The winners Ladies' high, hands, Mrs. R. Hawes; men’s lone hands, Hany Reeves; low, Jack Fraser. The hostess, assisted by Mrs. A. MacKay. Helen Reeves and Thelma Gardham, served a bountiful lunch to the twenty-seven guests, during which some men found to their sur­ prise and sorrow that some very de­ licious looking tarts contained only batten. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. Crane, R. R. 1, Thamesford.--(Contributed,) at euchre were:— Helen Reeves; lone Elliott; low, Mrs. S.high, James Elliot'.; good wishes. The remainder of the evening was spent in a social way, with cards and music. The hostess was assisted in serving refreshments by Misses Fleming, Miller and Lemp. MABEL flATH BRIDE OF WILFORD GEORGE They play tricks. But they feel snoes, no norse." Kinoceti did not agree. ‘'The police are too smart,’* he said. “They lost sight of him afterthe killing. Now they will have sent out one of their best. He would not be such a fool as to letyoung MacLeod see him first. No, something has frightened him. He may have been warned." “I saw Red Deer trail to White Rock two days ago,” a breed sug­ gested. “That is not news,” f snarled Kinoceti. "Red Deer came from the north and west. He took moosemeat to Nipegosis. It is that old fox, Alec MacLeod.” Three men, now, had styled TheMacLeod a fox. Two white men and a breed. Their agreement was likely to be correct None of themwere fools. Kinoceti's Judgment was almost as swift at that of O'Rourke. Almost as true. Buthe did not stay to analyze it very far. “He leave his sister behind,” herepeated. "Perhaps to throw dust in the eyes of the Mounted Man. I am going to White Rock. You— three of you—may come With me.One stays to watch youn$ Mac­ Leod. He comes to hole-in here al the caves. Rub out those ashes, get rid of the bonce and meat. Heknows the trail. He must not be made suspicious. He*s worth a thousand dollars. You, Sun!,” howent on to the full-blood, remain behind. Watch him. Trail him if he leaves. Do not let him go toofar. The reward says 'Alive or dead,' but they would rather have him alive. And It Is only I, Kin­ oceti, who may collect that re­ward." “Does not the Mounted Man get some of It?” “They are not permitted. Theywork for the wage of a clerk, for glory and a medal,” scoffed Kino­ceti. “Clean up the cave. Young MacLeod will be here inside of half and hour. We will not lose sight of him, but now we go to White Rock. Perhaps we may clear up the matter of the gold before the Mounted Man arrives. "Then wo can tell him whereto find young MacLeod, and, once on that scent, ho will think of noother. They are good hounds, these Mounties; they stay on thetrail they are started on." Ho waa idle while the others worked. Ho had in him the dual­ ities of a leader, though his causes If she had hit him across the face with a whip, If she had been the one who made the scar hebore, he could not have felt It more plainly. He felt it now. He had been drinking a little. “Do you think 1 am a squaw?"she had asked him, and turned away. She had not told her brother, her uncle, nor any of thewhite trappers, who would have thrashed Kinoceti for hie preaump* tion, thrust him out of BisonCrossing forever. But her look rankled like a festering wound. Now, he was going to play even. He had waited a long time for the chance, played desperately to get it. He waa going to make the most of It, glut bis Indian nature, warped by crossbreeding, withrevenge. As Will MacLeod crossed StoneyRiver, its ice already treacherous under the Chinook, three men with Kinoceti, slid through the leaf7 less brush like lizards, took thetrail for White Rock. The blood remained behind. It suited him well enough. To keep an eye on this fugitive from white man's Justice was one thing, to beard Nipegosis in the Conjuror's own house was quite another. He erased himself from the landscape.He had meat. It was getting warm. He would watch this thou­ sand dollar refugee. And if Nlpe- gosis destroyed the rest, as he thought surely would happen, he,Sunl, whom many of his tribe thought foolish, would collect the reward and live happily ever after­ward—at least, as long as the thousand dollars held out. He might even aspire to the lats bride of Sigonay, might get from Nipegosis the secret of the lostlode. Kinoceti led bls three hench­ men Into White Rock in late'after- noon. He had been strongly tempted to steal Wil] MacLeod'ssled and dogs, but he fought off the impulse. He requoted AEsop’sfable to himself. “Do not trade the shadow for the substance.” So the white men had taught him. On the way they stopped at oneof his caches of caribou. Kinoceti Uked it, but it was his “medicine.** helpers were befuddled when theysot to White Boek. Ho himself waa merely charted with deviltry. Mrs. R. C. Brogden Hostess To Group Three Trinity United Church W. A. The marriage of Mabel Kathleen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Rath, Putnam, to Wilford H.

STATEMENT O F Respective Functions of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario and the Municipal Hydro Commissions, with Particular Reference to the Present Emergency. In view of the apparent public misunderstanding of the respective functions of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of the Province and the Municipal Hydro Commissions in the municipalities, this statement is made to clarify the situation. The function of the Provincial Commission is to generate or buy electric power and to sell electric power to Municipal Commissions and directly to rural consumers and to certain industries. The function of each Municipal Commission is to sell to its consumers within the municipality the electric power purchased from the Provincial Commission. send a box of food to the rector ofSt Peter's Church, Dorchester, Eng­ land. for distribution.

In practice, the Provincial Commission and the Municipal Commis0ons endeavour to co-operate with each other in the public interest. ir By reason of lack of rainfall last summer and autumn and by Tack of thaws during the present winter, there has been a substantial depletion of the storage of water necessary to maintain a high level of continuous genera­ tion. The resulting loss of production of electric power has taken place in Ontario and elsewhere where power has been purchased both under contract and in excess of contract Commitments by the Provincial Commission. This loss of production of electric energy has become so serious that certain of those who had contracts to supply the Provincial Commission with electric power have been compelled not only to withdraw the electric power they had been supplying in excess of contract commitments, but as well have been compelled to reduce delivery below con­ tract requirements by a further reduction of 8,000,000 kilowatt-hours per week. As long ago as December 15th, the Provincial Commission notified the Municipal Commissions and indicated to its direct consumers that, in addition to cuts already being applied to direct consumers, it was evident that, unless additional voluntary savings could be obtained,the Commission would be obliged to order the municipalities to reduce their loads from time to time by as much as 15 per cent or more. This notification was given for the ex­ press purpose of obtaining greater conservation of power and to enable each Municipal Commission to plan in advance the most equitable allocation of power wMiin the municipality. The Provincial Commission received notification that the most recent cut of power purchased under contract would be effective on Monday, Febiary 16th. I* order to make an equitable reduction of power delivery to all Municipal Commissions, it was neceuary for the Provincial Commission to compute for each Municipal Commission the amount of reduction it would be called upon to absorb, after taking into account the amount of conservation already effected by each Municipal Commission since October, 1947. To enable the Provincial Commission to complete the necessary computations^nd to notify the majority of Municipal Commissions of the amount of reduc­ tion each would have to absorb by Wednesday', February 18th, it was necessary that a substantial reduction be placed in effect as of Monday, February 16th, so that there would be no risk of an actual power stoppage in de­ liveries by the Provincial Commission To cttcomplish this, the Provincial Commission requested the Municipal Commissions of Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton,london, Windsor and Peterborough to reduce their takings of electric power by specific amounts during specked tpies, and also requested these Municipal Commissions to, in the mean­ time, treat the request confidentially and naf to give It to the press prior to the notification to all municipalities on Monday. This was done to avoid sfatemedH appearing which might have the effect of creating quite erroneous impressions of the amount of reduction Wcessary in each1 particular municipality throughout the Province. In relation to the reduction of power, each Municipal Commission was faced with entirely different considera­ tions as to how available power would be allocated within each municipality. For this reason, it was not feasible for the Provincial Commission by a general statement to indicate to the consumers in any particular municipality the allocation of available power that would be made by the Municipal Commissions. The Provincial Commission Is delivering to the Municipal Commissions and to its direct consumers all the elec, trie power it is able to generate or buy. It is the function of each Municipal Commission*to determine not only the allocation of power among its con­ sumers, but also what public explanation may be desirable in relation thereto.
