For some time past it was felt thatmor£ space should be given to thejunior department which had long ago outgrown its quarters, and therector began plans accordingly. All the work, commenced early in theyear, has been done voluntarily, bymen of the parish, who worked in thg. evenings, while the Women’sAuxiliary supplied the necessary funds.

Authorized as Second Class Mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, APRIL 15,1948to find that they have disappeared with the house­cleaning debris.During the season of housecleaning, the man ofthe house is quick to acknowledge that the sover­eignity for that time at least, is held by the wo­man of the house. And this is as it should be, for few men could houseclean and arrange the furni­ ture to bring pleasure to themselves, let alone to their wives, who spend a far greater time in the house than they do. So until the hqusecleaning time is over, the men of Ingersoll and the district may expect hastily-prepared meals, being called upon to move the heavier pieces of furniture, rug-beating on their afternoons off work, and not enjoying the comfort of their favorite chair for the evening reading. It is not on the other hand, an easy time for the woman of the house, for housecleaning, as some men know who have tried it, is just plain hard work I THURSDAY, APRIL 15th, 1948 DUTY TO DO Knowest thou not, thou canst not movea step on this earth without finding someduty to be done, and that every man is useful to his kind, by the very fact of hisexistence?—Carlyle. 'The Oxford County Unit Appeals For Cancer Society Memberships The Oxford County Unit of the Ontario Branch of the Canadian Cancer Society is uniting with the provincial organization this month in its cam­ paign for 150,000 memberships of $1 or more to cany on its educational and service projects in Ontario. A month’s crusade against cancer was opened on April 1st. The appeal is presented in The Ingersoll Tribune this week through the inter­ ested sponsorship of local business people as well as by the Oxford County Unit. During the past two years, the Ontario Branch has provided more than 100/100 free cancer dress­ ings to needy patients and it has also arranged for the transportation of many patients to treatment clinics and hospitals. In 1947, more than 200,000 pieces of cancer literature were distributed, urging people to consult a docty immediately when cancer is suspected. This literature pointed out that treatment during the early stages can curb the disease before it becomes uncontrollable. There are units of the Cancer Society operat­ ing now in 20 Ontario centres. Nearly 15,000 Canadians died from cancer last year, according to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. Medical authorities believe that half of those deaths could have been prevented by early diagnosis and treat­ ment of the disease. Many people suspect that they have cancer and are afraid to have their fears con­ firmed by medical diagnosis because they do not know that cancer can be controlled, the society states. We hope that Ingersoll and the surrounding district will respond to this appeal with mahy memberships and a generous contribution of money to further the work of combating this dreaded disease. Contributions should be sent to the Oxford County Unit, 390 Dundas Street, Woodstock. Official receipts will be issued so that income-tax exemption may be claimed. While the /membership fee for one year is $1, it is hoped that the residents of the town and district will be as generous as they can in determining the amount of their contribution. The People Who Plan The Fall Fair Are Rendering Community Service Plans are progressing for one of the most attractive fall fair programs ever presented in Ing­ ersoll on October 8th and 9th, by the Ingersoll, North ami West Oxford Agricultural Society. The dates of the 1948 fair were set at a recent meet­ ing of the officers and directors of the society. The annual fall fair is an outstanding event in a community, and the Ingersoll trading area is fortunate to have a progressive group of men who are interested in arranging a program for the two days which will interest farmers and residents of the town alike. It is fitting that agriculture should predominate the fall fair. In their exhibits and their attendance at the fair, the farmers of the district have an in- centive^to strive for individual and community agricultural improvements. Ingersoll is in the midst of one of the best dairy farming districts in Can­ ada. The fair, with its extensive prize list, pres­ ents opportunities for the farmers to compete for prizes, and its exhibits show to the farmers of the district and those from a distance the advance­ mats that are being made in the breeding of live­ stock and in the marketing of farm products of the highest quality. The fair realizes the importance of the house­ wife on the farm. Many fall fairs have a women’s division, and the Ingersoll Fair has a group of women who are planning a section of the prize list which will be of interest to the women of the district. Of all the events which are held in Ingersoll during the year, it is probable that the fall fair is the one which more greatly commands the interest of the entire Ingersoll trading area. It is valuable to the people who are in business in Ingersoll. These people derive their trade from Ingersoll and the surrounding farming district, and anything which helps to bring greater interest to the centre of the trading area is of inestimable value to them. The officers and directors of the society are planning a diversified program for the two days of the fair. There will be entertainment and educa­ tional features at the fair to interest every person. And not only the boys and girls will anticipate the rides of the midway! % Several months will have passed away before it is fair time in Ingersoll, but it is timely to think about the fall fair now. Although the prize list will not be ready for distribution until the summer, the presnt is not too soon for one to decide to be an exhibitor at the Ingersoll Fair of 1948. And in thinking about the fair, appreciation is due to the group of men and women who spend freely of their time throughout the year in planning an out­ standing fall fair to the community. These people are renderin* an important service to the whole of the Ingersojf trading area.

This gives cause for generalrwatisfaction, for it is in the interests of all that it jfliould be completed as speedily as poss­ ible. The magnitude of this undertaking is be­ coming increasingly evident. It was never expected to be otherwise. But by its very magnitude, the need for it becomes more impressive, for the job has not become simplified with the passage of time—quite the reverse. That which might have been done somewhat easily 50 years ago, involves a veritable upheaval now. However, along with the upheaval, a worthwhile construction job is being done. As was to be expected in such an undertaking, difficulties have been encountered. But in the case of those skilled in their profession, the difficulties are being dealt with. They have never been considered insuperable by those in charge of the work.. In fact, prelim­ inary soundings had apprized the engineers of their presence, so the contract made provision for dealing with them. In this construction set-up, three contractors are engaged: one for construction of the disposal plant; two for the sewers. All working in close co-operation, are under the direction of the en­ gineering firm. Each firm represented has been engaged in other large contracts, and was highly recommended. Every assurance has been given that they will do a satisfactory job in Ingersoll, The Man of the House Loses HisSovereignty In Housecleaning Time This! is the busy season for the woman of the house - - it’s housecleaning*time! In the transition from winter to spring, the cleaning of the house for the spring and summer seasons is an important task. And although it is one which is usually aproached with forebodings of the great amount of work to b • done, secretly, we think, the woman of the hou^e finds enjoyment in removing the dust accumulated during the winter and in re­ arranging the furniture to her taste id the rooms. The housecleaning holds little appeal for the man of the house. He takes makeshift meals as a rule during its busy days, and when he cannot sit In his favorite chair to do his evening reading, he hopes that the d^ys of housecleaning will be ended soon. However, while he may display an attitude of dissatisfaction with the housecleaning days, he is inwardly proud of his wife in her homemaking work.Housecleaning is also a time when the rooms take on a new look. The man of the house returns Jn the evening to find a strangeness about them, and it is in this rearranging of the furniture and pictures that the housewife finds delight. Admit­ ting that the rearranging is an improvement, the man of the house, who is usually somewhat care­ less about the accumulation of papers and articles -rV.rh he wants to keep, may be toot so well pleased What Others Say Is This a Free Country? When a strange motorist drives into Alberta he must register with the provincial authorities within36 hours. Why he must do this has not been satis­factorily explained. Such a rule does not apply in the other provinces of Canada nor in the great ma­jority of the states across the line. As a special at­traction to tourists it is certainly not to be recom­ mended.It’s about time officials in some of the provincesof Canada grew up andrealized that they were not.administering a sovereign state but merely a part of a big. and what should be, a free country. Thereshould be no provincial barriers, petty or otherwise.In a world that is cursed with restrictions surely within our own boundaries we can set an example. A motorist who complies with registration in oneprovince should be acceptable without further redtape or restriction, to the others and the same should apply to states across the line, if we really want to encourage tourists.And there should be similar reciprocity in otherlines, too. It is grossly unfair and it is dangerous to try to precent a citizen trained in one provincefrom using that training in another, yet several ofour provinces are guilty of such a practice. More­ over some of them also, at one time or another,have tried to set up restrictions which would inter­fere with the free movement of goods, manufactorycd, processed or grown in another province. This sort of thing is all wrong. If we ever hopeto become a nation there should be no man maderestrictions from Cape Breton to Vancouver Island and all citizens and all business should have equal opportunity no matter where born or located.—Financial (Post. The Individual Counts In these days of large industrial and commercialorganizations, and equally large grouping of em­ ployees in various unions and guilds, the work ofthe single individual is often lost sight of, but in acomparatively undeveloped country there are yet many trails to be blazed.

J. 'Rutherford of Tillsonburg and sec­ onded by Derek Pite of Burford. Thefeeling of the meeting was recordedin a standing vote and about two- thirds of those attending stood infavor. None stood in opposition.A provisional board of 12 direct­ ors, three from each local, was chos­en. They are: Bruce Hill, John Bell­house, and Donald MacKenzie, Bur­ ford; Wilfred L.

N. M. Marshal), the president of theOntario Co-operative Company, andHarley Mayberry of Ingersoll each spoke briefly. Mr. Mayberry re-emphasized threepoints brought up: Management, fin­ance, and loyalty. “We have gone past the day when we should consignour products to the processors or dis­tributors and let them take out of them what they like and give us the rest,” he said.Of management, he said: “It hasbeen said that a manager costs you his salary, plus his mistakes.” Of fin­ance, he said: “Today farmers aregetting good prices and are prosper­ ous and think nothing of going outand paying $1,500 for a tractor sothat they nray produce bigger crops. Why should they hesitate to finance their own business from the begin­ning to the end?” Of loyalty, he ob­served: “Too many are ready to elect a board of directors and then sitback and criticize it. Every membershould feel the business belongs to him and he should take a pride in it and in its products.” I SERVICE IN AYLMER FOR MRS. W. HUGHES A pioneer resident of Aylmer.

Mos, who f came to Ingersoll recently from their home in Holland,, to live with their daughter, Mrs. W. R. Kemp, and Mr. ’ Kemp, at 258 Mutual street, until they find a dwelling of their own, ' told The Tribune in an interview that they are delighted to be able to shop 5 in the well-stocked stores of Inger- • soli. They crossed the Atlantic • aboard the S. S. “Nieuw Amster-1 dam”, of the Holland-American Line. ' Mrs. Mos spoke a few words in the , English language when she was visited by The Tribune and her daughter acted as a translator for her. Mr. Mos wap just beginning to learn the language of his adopted country. Mrs. Mos speaks the Hol­ land and German languages fluently. Both, however, understood much that was said during the visit of The Tri­ bune, as they became acquainted with the English language during the war when many Canadian soldiers were on active service in-Holland. Mrs. Kemp stated that English is taught in the schools of Holland. Mr. and Mrs. Mos said food is very scarce in Holland, even worse now than it was during the German occupation. They said that a pound of tea costs five guilders. A guilder, they explained, is worth about 50 cents in Canadian money, although the guilder is worth in value to the Hollander as much as a dollar to Canadians. Overalls, which would cost $5 in Ingersoll, sell in Holland for 17 guilders. There are no pre-war materials in Holland now, they said, and clothing is consequently made from poor material. The people are allowed 80 clothing coupons for one year, and to buy’ a man’s suit they have to give up 60 coupons. A pan of socks requires four ccywpn.-, and a spool of thread can be bought only with the same number of coupons. A man's suit, made in Holland, coats from 70 to 80 guilders, and if it is imported from Canada, ar. all-wool one, it will cost about 300 guilders. Only one coupon is allowea for shoes in a year and a half, which means that the Hollander who Can­ not make his shoes wear that long must go to the black market. Mr. and Mrs. Mos said the prices on the black market are terrible. “If you want to live, you have to buy on it," they remarked.. Women's shoes on ' the black market cost from 50 to 60 ' by Mrs. R.

In September, 1944, when the war in Holland started, the first shell to strike St. Ocdenrode hit the kitchen of the home of Mr. and Mrs. Mot. Their washing machine was des­ troyed, and 10 nice chickens— “something wonderful in Holland” —were killed. Accompanying Mr. and Mrs. Mos to Ingersoll was their son, John, who is 17 years old. He is an automobile mechanic, having completed four years at a mechanic’s school. He re­ ceived a diploma from the school be­ fore coming to Canada. Mr. and Mrs. Mos told The Tribune that each adult in Holland is allowed a quart of milk for seven days. They, with their son, were restricted to bringing $100 each in money from Holland, after paying for their ocean transportation. Mrs. Mos bought a bright-colored ker­ chief as a souvenir before leaving, for which she paid 30 guilders. Mrs. Petronella Mos, the mother of •'Mr. Mos, an only child, lives in St. Oedenrode. The parents of Mrs. Mos, Mr. and Mrs. Boudewyn Van Gelderen, live near Rotterdam. .She has one brother and two sisters, II. Van Gelderen and Mrs. N. Van de Steenhoven of Rotterdam, and Mrs. C. Van Nederloff of California. The Tribune was accompanied on the visit to the home of Mr. and Mrs.1 Kemp by Douglas Carr, who prior to the recent war made a round-the- world trip. Mr. Carr who served overseas with the R.C.A.F., spent some time in Nymegen, and Mr. and i Mrs. Mos and Mrs. Kemp enjoyed ’ some reminscences of his pre-war and wartime visits to their native country'.

HANDS AT WORK LEARNING AERO ENGINE AND AIRFRAME MECHANICS products are desired and purchased by people all over the world and the capacity to produce such goods largely determines the economicwelfare of every man, woman and child within her borders. Because the sale of every article produced in Ontario brings valuable dollars into this Province, we all are more assured of job security . . . and we and our children can have more of the better things in life. To produce such goods in sufficient quantities, skilledlabour is vital. That is why every single one of us should be glad that war Veteransare constantly being trained to provide the skilled hands so needed by industry.Veterans receive ON THE JOB training under expert instructors in our Ontario factories. This training, provided through the co-operation of thw Department of Veterans*Affairs, the Federal Department of Labour and the Ontario Department ofEducation, starts veterans off on the road to skilled craftsmanship. Taught touse their hands in general aero engine and airframe work, both on military and civilian aircraft, these veterans may qualify for a Department of Transport license, authorizing them to declare aircraft airworthy. In aircraft manufacturing plantsand on flying fields throughout Ontario, these newiy-akilled veterans will havethe opportunity to apply their talents and training.

He looked up at the girl. "What about that book or something she was supposed to be writing?" "None of us every knew anythingabout the book mother was writ­ ing,” said Kay. “We haven't been able even to find It Johnny's eyes were thoughtful."People with a real story, they wantto gel down on paper, are like that,” he explained. “It’s sort of a personal thing they don’t want people prying into.” Johnny said, "Who was that young fellow who was on the beach with you?” "Oh. him?” She smiled. "That'sRalph. Ralph Dunkirk. He lives overin Northport. I've known him a long time,” she said. "He works in his father's garage over in town," and the brief smile swept from her face. "Anything wrong in that?” asked Johnny Her change in manner puz- ^tled him. ' Kay said stiffly. "That’* wherethey look fathers car after the ac­cident. It's there now." "Of course." He held a lighter for her cigarette. "la Northport far?" "It’s quicker going right across the harbor. W« have a speedboat.

Your mother and father . . . they got along all right together?" He thought her unusual green eyesflickered. "Mother loved father in­ tensely. Jt was always that way.” She met his eyes and there was •omethlng taut about her manner. "You’ve noticed It, haven't you? You’ve noticed the way I act when I speak about father. Don’t say you haven't. I can tell I" The pitch ofher voice raised slightly. "Well, I'm not afraid to tell you. He’s dead now and I have ... no regrets I Mother never knew. She loved him the wayfew women ever love a man. Shetrusted him. And yet he was deceiv­ ing her all the time. Now do you un­ derstand. Mr. Saxon?” Kay’s o*es acre dark green with sudden fury."I despised him!” Johnny watched Kay disappear toward the butler’s pantry. Then, mounting the stairs to the secondfloor, he kept thinking of her re­ mark, "I despised him!” He was still thinking about it when he located the room. It was at the rear of the leftwing of the mansion. The hallway ended at a screened doorway that led out to a balcotiy. Glancing out, ’ Johnny could see numerous bed­rooms facing on this balcony. Johnny closed the hall door be­hind him and went into the bath­ room. Mo^was beneath the shower, hl* round, cherubic body red fromthe cold needle spray. Eyes closed, he had his face pushed up Into the cold blast and was slapping his chest like a baboon. Each slap wasaccompanied! with a yip. "A deaf Imute could And thia room,” callep out Johnny. Grinning. Moe stepped out of the tub and yknkcd a heavy turklshtowel from) a rack. "This sure is a swell place to work.” he said with pleasure. He rubbed himself vigor­ously. Though round and pudgylooking, he was solidly built. He nod­ ded beyond Johnny. "Have a drink.” On a bench in the large, tiledroom was a round silver tray con­ taining bottles and glasses. There was a tall square bottle and several bottles of beer."Homer brought It up," explainedMoe as Johnny poured himself a glass of beer. “You sure get service around here." Moe wrapped the large towelaround his midriff and led the wayback into the bedroom. "They’ve got everything in this house," he told Johnny. "All you have to do is flick the right switch.” He pointed to a boxlike affair buil^ into the front of a table between twin beds. The gadget was like the inter­office speaker systems used in busi­ ness houses. “Handy, huh?" said Moe. "Some day we'll install one at the office. It must be nice to havemoney." \ Wooden handles rattled within a roomy clothes closet somewhere inthe big room. Then Moe's voice,somewhat muffled within the closet, said. “Do you think it's an act?" Johnny stirred himself, shakingoff drowsiness, "What do you mean —act?""I mean ... with Irene?" “Of course not," said Johnny. ‘Then she's really got amnesia?"asked his partner, coming out of the closet. He was wearing pale blue shorts and an undershirt now, "There’s no question.” said John­ ny. "She’s been examined by one of the best doctors in New York.” “What did Irene tell you?" "Nothing. She doesn't know what it's all about. It's almost like a per­ son walking in their sleep . . . buttalking at the same time.” "Then she doesn't remember a thing about her husband being be fixing the chair for Irene Smith,but Immediately she reappeared with a magazine in her hand.

We’re being paid to find out exactly what happened, the night her husband Kay'* eyes were dark green with sodden fury. "I despised him!' Stephen Scott, of 22 King St, Till- sonburg, was suddenly stricken with a heart seizure on April 2nd. Up until the hour of his death, Mr. Scott was active, so that hi* death came as a great shock to his family and friends. Mr, Scott, son of Elizabeth and John Scott of Leeds, England, came to Canada with his family in 1879, at the age of 10, and settled in Till- sonburg. With the exception of a year and a half after his marriage, which was spent in Detroit, Mr. Scott had been a resident of Tillsonburg. In 1892, Mr. Scott was married to Susan Jane Baxter, who predeceased him in July, 1947. He is survived by two sons and five daughters, Kenneth ’ and Ewart Scott of Detroit, Mich., ’ Mrs. C. D. Rossiter, (Olive), of ’ Crampton, Miss Elsie Scott at home,J Mrs. S. Blease, (Ruth) of Hamilton, 1 Mrs. H. Swackhammer (Mary) of Hamilton, and Miss Grace Scott of Islington. He was predeceased by' two sons, Lieut. S. W. Scott, M.M., . who was killed in action in 1918, and Stanley, who died in infancy. Mr. Scott was a member of St. Paul's United Church and served on fts official Board for some pc :od of tintte. He was a member of the Anc­ ient Order, of Foresters, and for more than 20 years was the secretary of Court Fidelity, No. 7,820. At one time, he was a member of the town council, and- had always ta.ien an active interest in the municipal affairs of the town. At a very early age Mr. Scott be­ gan his trade with his uncle, the late John Smith. After he was married, he was a ship joiner at the Detroit Dry Docks for a year and a half. Re­ turning to Tillsonburg he worked with John Smith until the latter sold his planing mil) to West and Jackson. Then he took on the foremanship of the sash and door factory of the Till­ son Company for a few years, after which he started into business for himself. The many fine buildings which he erected in Tillsonburg and and the surrounding district, testify to his ability and workmanship. After retiring from his business, he served as a building inspector for the town. During his retirement, he en­ joyed acting in an advisory capacity to other contractors and builders. Mr. Scott was buried from the G. A. Barrie Funeral Home on Monday I afternoon. The many beautiful floral ' tributes, and the numerous messages of sympathy received by the family, testify to the high esteem in which | he was held as a Christian gentle- , man. The pallbearers were Charles ' Weeks, Fred Porter. Arthur Brutnp- i ton, D. F. Gibson, H. L. Pratt and H. I. Stewart, of Ingersoll. The flower bearers were G. H. Hollier. G. G. Hollier, Chris Ebert, George McQuiggan, W. G. Pow, W. J. Shear- I ing, Dr. Harold McDonald, L. Bax- I ter, Amos Mills. William. Middleton. Jesse Allin, Mr. Mullock, Henry Would* and William Hart.

Council adjourned to meet May 3rd, C A N A . S. FOSTER, Mono shot?” Moe carried some more clothes into the closet and hung them up. He came back, noted the whiskey which filled the bottom ofthe tumbler in Johnny’s hand, and helped himself to a similar drink from the tray. "Doesn’t she know that her husband was murdered thatnight?" "She doesn't even know she had a husband." he said. Moe stared. "In fact”— a smile flickered acrossJohnny’* face—“she thinks I'm someone named Bart.” "I’ll be darned!" said Moe. Then seized with a thought, he added quickly, "Now, if we can only find Johnny nodded. He got up and walked over to the windows again and stood there looking out toward the balcony. "But I don't thinkthere’s anyone named Bart. Other­wise, somebody around here would have heard the name in the past.” Then there was a sharp, Impatient knock at the hall door. Before John­ny Saxon could even start toward the door it burst open and the wirylittle man popped into the room. The fellow spying Johnny movedtoward him quickly. "Got any fen-,nies?” he demanded in/his shi'ill voice. Reaching into his pocket, a smile flickering across the corners of hismouth, Johnny pulled out somechange. Several pennies were in the palm of his hand. The old man’s hand darted out, picked up the coins. Examining themswiftly, he returned two and kept two. These he put into the pocket ofhis baggy jacket. rThanks,” he said hurriedly, andwent out of the room. Moe Martin stood looking thought­ fully at the door. Then he turned toJohnny. "That," he announced, "wasOrandpoppa Smith! Worth probably several million dollars. Yet he bumspennies, imagine!” Johnny said, "He collects things— including keys.” His eyes questioned. How’d you know about him?" Moe Martin said. "Hannah—she'sthe cook—was telling me about Grandpoppa. Hannah’s a good source of information.”Turning* back to the window. Johnny saw that Karen, the talldark-haired nurse, had come from the bedroom doorway directly across the courtlike space formed by the two rear wings of the house. At first he thought Karen might was murdered. For that, they’re paying plenty." "I guess we’d better get to workthen,” Moe said, disturbed. "I'm working right now." snapped Johnny. "I'm watching that nurse." "OK," said Moe, heading for the door, and it was obvious that hewas slightly mixed up by Johnny** remarks. ’ Johnny stood near the screened doors. He decided, finally, that the nurse, Karen, was not reading themagazine at all. instead, she was sitting there In the chair and watch­ ing this bedroom. She still held the magazine in her hands, but he knew from the angle at which she held it she could not possibly read the type. A moment later there was a soft chlme-like sound in the bedroom. Johnny moved across the room. There was a small, hand-carved writing desk near one of the twinbeds. The telephone handset restedatop the desk and was the same light tan color as the walls. “Yes?" said Johnny quietly, pick­ ing up the receiver. „ "This is Kay, Mr. Saxon," thegirl said. "Yes, Kay?" "Uncle Thomas phoned. He was delayed on the way out from New York, so now he’s continued rightinto Northport. He wants to know if you could meet him over there for afew moments?" "AU right," said Johnny. “I’ll meet you down at the boat­ house in ten minutes," She hung up. He reminded himself that "UncleThomas," as the girl called him, was footing the bills on this case. The least Johnny could do was rideacross the lake and keep the ap­ pointment. Before he left the room he glanced through the screened door*again. Karen, the nurse, was still seated outside the bedroom across the balcony. From this distance,Johnny could not tell whether her eyes were open or not. His guess wasthat they were. After Kay had called Johnny, ask­ing him to meet her at the boat­ house, he found Moe firmly en­ trenched in conversation with Han­nah, the cook. Johnny pulled him away from a thick peanut butter sandwich long enough to tell himwhat was going on. “And keep your eye* open, pal,” be admonished.

These changes in coming gradually, do not greatly impress the residents. But a glance backward of twenty-five years, leads one to realize that the town has changed considerably in appearance over a period of years. Former residents, on returning, state there is little to re­ mind them of the old Ingersoll. For that reason, it has been suggested that many of The Tribune's out-of- town readers might like to know who is occupying the various business lo­ cations in the town. They read ad­ vertisements in The Tribune (adver­ tisements can be a welcome sight to nostalgic eyes), but they do not know' where the advertisers are situated. Whereas, if they did know, the place might have a sentimental attachment for them, it might be where their business career began as a delivery boy: or where they purchased their first school books. The attachment might prove strong Mom,(Marg MISCE TO BUY S PAYING HIGH PRICEPoultry, junk, goose feathers, feather ticks,When you doxyour sing, we buy iron, will call any tiVictoria Strewphone 93.

SUNWORTHY WAI L PAPER LOWE BROS.INT -LAC ENAMELfence.A slight digression might be per­ mitted to relate an incident, recalled by an old-timer, who as a boy attend­ ed a circus there, one outstanding feature of which was to be the exhib­ it of what was said to be the largest snake in the world. W eeks- of adver­ tising aroused considerable interest in the reptile, on the part of the pub­ lic. People paid 10 cents and flocked into the tent to see it. It was a big snake, but it was made of wood. The spectators flocked out of that tent feeling badly duped. The new post office was erected in 1898, replacing that which had occu­ pied a situation on Thames St. South, later the office of the late D. G. Cuth­ bertson. The McKenney block was built to the south of the new post office on the remainder of the circus grounds. Next to the post office was Mr. Thurtell’s Post Office Drug Store, which he occupied until 1923, when it was occupied by George Bartlett’s men’s clothing store, as it still is. Next to Thurtell’s was W. H. Healy’s grocery, which the latter vacated about 1923 or shortly thereafter, when Mr. Thurtell occupied that site, and 'Mr. Healy’s son, L. V.

Ackct, the chairman, pre­ sided over the April meeting of the Ingersoll Public School Board which was held in the council chamber la«t week. All the members of the board were present The reports and sev­ eral communications were rckd by the secretary-treasurer, J. J. Mc­ Leod. Resignations were received from three teachers, Mrs. H. Lundy, Miss Jean Forrester nnu K. G. McLeod, and these were uc'rpted by the board with regret A letter from thi De­ partment of Education called atten­ tion to the observance of World Tiade Week throughout Canada from April 30th to May Sth. The co-operation of the Public ScHools was requested in a letter. An application was received front John Wilford for the position of attendance officer. Mr. Wilford was appointed to this position succeed­ ing the late John Humphrys, who held the position for four years. A report of the finance committee was adopted, authorizing the pay­ ment of a number of accounts. En­ rollment figures for March were pre­ sented by Principal A. G. Murray, as follows: Memorial School, 668; Princess Elizabeth School, 170; total. 838. The average daily attendances were: Memorial School, 630; Prin­ cess Elizabeth School, 159. Mr. Mur­ ray told the board that the pupils had lost less than one day each on ac­ count of illness during the month. Principal Murray announced that the two schools had contributed S2S5 for the Canadian Appeal for Europe. The school mag^zin?, “The Bugler”, he said had been published at a small profit. Speaking of the interest shown in it, Mr. Munav said he con-^ s’dered that the a irk is beneficial to the pupils in their educational train- ber of pupils, is necessary. He said “the present school buildings are bursting at the seams”, and he pre­ sented reasons why it will be neces­ sary to make plans for new build­ ings. At the present time, apart from the kindergarten, the average atten­ dance is 42 pupils per classroom, which Mr. Hyde said is excessive. While he has been acquainted with the accommodation problem for some time, Inspector Hyde said he had delayed in bringing it to the atten­ tion of the board on account of the subnormal conditions which have pre­ vailed since the war. There has been he said, no decrease in Inger­ soll's population. Many people who came here for wartime work have remained, and men who served over­ seas have returned, bringing with them their wives and families. He felt that four new classrooms will be required in five years. Another reason for increased ac­ commodation, explained Mr. Hyde, is that to obtain better efficiency the number in each classroom should be reduced to 35. Under the present situation, he said, it was impossible for a pupil to gain an extra year. He said this is important, as pupils of ability should be given an opportun­ ity. Most of the pupils, he remarked, are entering the high school at the age of 14 years. With a crowded classroom, he added, a teacher can­ not be expected to do extra work. “I do not see any way out of it,”Mr. Hyde told the board. “Something | girl, will have to be done within the next j how. four yearn.” His opinion was that the board will not be able to get by after September, 1949. From Information which he re­ ceived from the Ontario Department of Education relative to additions and new schools in other communi­ ties, Mr. Hyde sold a four-room ad­ dition would probably cost about 175,000. He asked the members of the board to give the matter of in­ creased accommodation their earnest consideration. Despite the overcrowded condi­ tions, Mr. Hyde said the teachers have been doing splendid work. He spoke appreciatively of all the mem­ bers of the staffs, expressing the hope that the present high standard of efficiency will be maintained. Following a discussion, the board passed a resolution favoring the in-' creasing of accommodation in “the j schools to relieve the present over-. crowded conditions. It was explain-1 ed that the cost to the taxpayers of providing increased accommodation ! will be materially decreased by a 1 grant from the provincial govern­ ment. The property committee of the I Princess Elizabeth Schoo), composed of A. J. McKenzie, C. A. Pellow and Walter Leaper, (chairman), was appointed as a new building com­ mittee. The boss returned from lunch in high fettle and called in the whole staff to listen to a couple of jokes he had picked up. Everybody but one girl laughed uproariously. “Whats the matter?” grumbled the boss. “Haven’t you got a sense of humour?” | “I don’t’ have to laugh”, said the 'I’m leaving on Friday, any- YOUR ORDERS are always appreciated at our ice Large choice of f ROOFING M ATERIALS BURLINGTI low in Sti Let them »ur wide range of PRE-FIT WINDOWS distinction to your home.

Outside activities at the school, he said, were delayed be­ cause of the muddy conditions of the grounds. Mr. Murray announced that “open house” will be held in the Memorial School on Friday, April 23rd, to which he extended an invitation to the members of the board. He also stated that preparations are being made for the annual Empire Day program, to be held on Wednesday. May 19 th. The board was informed by Prin­ cipal Murray that there will be prob­ ably 120 beginners for the kindergar­ ten department at the opening of the fall term in September. In view of this large number, he said it is important for him to know who they are .and which school they will be attending. It is the intention he said, toAend out registration forms to ob­ tain this information, also a form for proof of age. It was suggested that it would be advisable for the board to publish some advertisements in the press in connection with the large number of beginners anticipated for the fall term. Mr. Murray thought that if the present rooms will accommodate the beginners, some additional seats will be required. • The chairman, Mr. Ackert, agreed with Mr. Murray about the advertis­ ing regarding enrollment of begin­ ners in the fall. The board author­ ized Mr. Mtpftty to prepare the ad­ vertisements and place them in the newspapers. It was also suggested that any parents intending to have their children enter the kindergarten j classes in the fall should obtain the necessary forms from Principal Mur- | ray and return them to him filled in, accompanied by a proof of age.I Inspector L.

A. Bishop, V.C., C.B., D.S.O., M.C., D.F.C., E.D., LL.D.* chairman of the Army's Na­ tional Advisory Board, who announ­ ced the completion of Dominion wide campaign plans. The national ob­ jective will be $1,100,000 for main­ tenance, plus capital items. Actually, Air Marshal Bishop de­ clared, the Salvation Army is just reverting to its prewar policy of conducting its major financial appeal in the month of May. A government war measure directing that war ser­ vice campaigns should be held in the spring and home service campaigns in the fall was the prime reason for the Salvation Atony's change in lon-established policy. Another important reason for the change-over, the Air Marshal said, was to avoid conflict with the dates of Community Chest Campaigns. In i all larger and many of the small i centres throughout the country, I Community Chest appeals are made in October. This compelled the Salva­ tion Army to launch its appeal not later than September 15, and as organization of both campaigns pro­ gressed almost simultaneously, often the same people were approached to give time and effort as organizers and canvassers. This was detrimental, Air Marshal Bishop said, to both campaigns. The benefits to a synchronized 1 appeal from national publicity were obvious, Air Marshal Bishop said. He forecasted an unsurpassed response ■ on the part of Canadians to the 1948 Red Shield Appeal, and said that never before in its year’s operation in Canada had the Army’s n^eds been so urgent or its demands so multiplied.

SAIAHA WOOL PRODUCTION Total wool production in Canada in 1947 amounted to 14,090,000 pounds as compared with a revised estimate of 16,747,000 pounds for 1946. The decline in wool produc­ tion in 1947 reflects the decrease in sheep numbers. Shorn wool produc­ tion decreased in every province, and with fewer sheep available for slaughter, pulled wool also decreased by 1.4 million pounds..

FARM VALUE OF WOOL The farm value of shorn wool and farm cash income from sales of wool in Canada rose steadily from 1939 to 1944. Since 1945, however, the rapid decline in the number of sheep has resulted in less income from wool despite a gradual rise in farm prices. The average farm price of wool for Canada changed only fractionally during tFye last year from 28.0 cents per pound in 1946 to 28.2 cents per pound jn 1947. S. M.
