Park Improvements For Race Meetings Genera] improvements are being made at Victoria Park under the joint action of the parks board and the Ingersoll Turf Club. Much of the work is preparatory to the opening of the racing season. The track is being widened and the condition of the turns improved. The turns are being gradually built up and while this will make for a great­ er degree of safety, there will be no sacrifice of speed when the racing events are held. An additional cut has been made in the southside hill and on the back- stretch the track has been widened approximately eight feet. The grader will be used in the levelling and If favorable weather continues it is probable the track will be available for training purposes by the end of this week. The work is being done by con­ tractor Thomas Smith of Vienna, whose heavy and high-powered equipment has attracted no little attention. The equipment consists of a large type bulldozer and a carry­ all scraper? The Turf Club will hold its first race meeting on Saturday, June 26. in connection with the Industrial Fair to be held in the park by the Kiwanis Club. The second race meet­ ing will be held in August. Rt. Wor. Bro. H. T. Bower Visits St. John’s Lodge St. John’s Lodge, No. 68, A. F. &A.M., was officially visited on Fri­day evening by Rt. Wor. Bro.

EARLY WREN SPENDS NIGHT IN LOCAL HOME When a resident on Qxford St. op­ened her door the other evening, a wren, perhaps attracted by the warmair, flew in.

But creature of the wild thatit was, it evidently decided that itpreferred the out-of-doors, north winds and all, to warm confinement,for next morning on the box lid be­ing opened hardly more than an inch,the tiny bunch of feathers shot out and through an open window, dis­appearing from view. This is said to be unusually early for wrens to appear in this disrict, asthey are seldom seen until May. A more serious situation as far ns health is concerned was stated by Dr. Powers to be that «*»nldren going !o and from s:hool who passed the dump, were making a habit of for­ aging among the garbage and pick­ ing up all manner of overiipe or partially rotted fruit.

Now, alongcome Canadian nutrition experts to declare that bright light is some­ times bad. too, for what goes into the Momach. They point particularly to that most valuable of al) food­ milk.

Ingersoll’s Garages Can Help To Make Driving Safer And Happier This* is the time to have the automobiles checked for the summer season of motoring. Although there are few cars placed in storage now for the winter months—a custom quite prevalent in the earlier years of the automotive era—the spring is a good time to have them checked over and repaired for safe and pleasant driving in the busy months ahead. The winter driving is hard on cars. Highways and streets, with their coatings of ice and snow, shake the cars up and cause loosenings which im­ pair the efficiency of the car and its safe opera­ tion. The severe weather conditions also have an unfavorable effect upon the vehicle. While cars should be maintained in a good driv­ ing condition at all times, for the safety of the oc­ cupants, pedestrians, and otljer motorists, the sum­ mer season, with its greatly increased traffic, pre­ sents an urgent reason why every vehicle should be checked over and placed in a satisfactory mechan­ ical condition. Cars which have' been driven throughout the winter should be given a good check-up to insure safer driving on the highways during the summer season. In Ingersoll, the motorists of the town and the district have a large number of well-equipped gar­ ages to serve them. Skilled mechanics in these gar­ ages are qualified to check and repair the cars for spring and summr driving. In view of the fact that some time may elapse before new cars will be pro­ duced in a sufficient quantity to meet the demand for them, as good care as possible should be taken of the cars now in use. Some of these are several years old, and under normal production conditions they would have been replaced by the owners some time ago. However, they can be kept in a satis­ factory condition for much continued use by hav­ ing them checked over carefully in the gardes of Ingersoll. For safe and happy driving during spring and summer, when there will be many vehicles on the highways and when the prevention of accidents depends to a large extent upon the mechanical con­ dition of the cars, we suggest a check-up now by the capable mechanics in the garages of Ingersoll, We Congratulate The Centreville Team On An Outstanding Season We congratulate the members of the Centreville hockey team on having reached the finals of the intermediate “B” group of the Ontario Rural Hockey Association. This team completed an out­ standing season last week when it lost the finalgame, in 10 minutes of overtime playing, for the O.R.H.A. championship. Manager Harry Connor deserves much credit for the success of this team. A former hockey player himself, he appreciates fully the value of good, clean sport. And he is a splendid example of a father enjoying recreation and fellowship with his sons, for no fewer than six of his sons have beenon the line-up of the team. Last year this team won the championship of South Oxford, in "A” and “B” groups, losing in the finals for the county title. This year the team, displaying keen hockey and good sportsmanship, went through to the county championship, and then continued into the final series of the O.R.H.A. As the members of the team put away their skates and hockey sticks until another season, we express to them on behalf of the citizens of Inger­ soll and the district the congratulations which are due to them for a splendid season of hockey. nWe hope that they will be back on the ice again next year and that the provincial championship will betheirs. Canada Should Receive More Space In Oversea# Newspapers We were interested in an article which appeared in the London Free Press several days ago, writ­ ten by its editor-in-chief. Arthur R. Ford, who is a member of the Canadian delegation at the United Nations’ conference on freedom of information at Geneva, Switzerland. Mr. Ford said in his article that he hadlnot been able to find a solitary news reference to Canada in the Swiss papers, the Eng­ lish papers published in Paris, nor the attenuated London, Eng,, papers which reach Geneva. “We have spent many precious francs trying to find out ■what is going on in the Dominion, but withoutavail,” Mr. Ford slates. Readers of The Tribune will be disappointed that Mr. Ford has foutjd such a scarcity of news abroad about the’Dominjon of Canada. There ara many events transpiring in Canada which should be of in­ terest to overseas people. Here in Canada, we have a very good overseas coverage by the press. It is possible perhaps that Canadians, as a result, are better informed on the events of the world from day to day. i While it is possible that the overseas paper# have a paper shortage problem to contend with, nevertheless it seems almost incredible that they cannot find some news from our Dominion worthy of inclusion in their papers. Can the part which Canada contributed in the recent war be eluding the memory of! the overseas editors already? And Vare they not cognizant of the contribution of food vand clothing which is pouring from Canada to their countries? Canada is one of the great nations of the world. The fact that people from overseas desire to emi­ grate to our shores is indicative of the esteem in which our land is held. While we do not presumeto inform the overseas editors upon what theyshould or should not include within their papers,we feel that some news about Canada should begiven to their readers. We think that better understanding among the people of the overseas countries can be achieved through th publication of news abouf Canada, about the part it is contributing to promoting peace, about the progress which it is making in agriculture, industry, education, sciuice, etc., and about its aid to the needy people in all of the war- stricken countries. On the other hand, no good can accrue to our Dominion from the publication of sensational news. It is our hope that Mr. Ford, as an ambassador of the daily and weekly press of Canada, may be able to interest the overseas editors before he re­ turns to his editorial office in the publication of interesting news about our Dominion of Canada. ler; president Mrs. (Dr.) Hoyt;I vice-president, Mrs, (Dr.) McKay;| secretary, Miss Edith Grant; treas­urer, Mrs. Macaulay.

Fund And Publicize Community The members of the Lions Club of Ingersoll de­ serve continued support in their efforts to assist the building fund for a new hospital in Ingersoll. Their radio program eabh Monday evening, "I.H.F. Calls,” is gaining in popularity, and as well as helping to augment the amount of money which the club will have for the hospital’s building, it is giving Ingersoll some good publicity. We hope that the demand for “l.H.F. bricks,” so necessary to prize winners, will increase. The money goes to a worthy cause, and some holders of the bricks each week are thrilled when they receive th valuable prizes awarded on the program. Hobby Show of Last Fall Results In Formation of Clubs Results of the hobby show held at the Ingersoll Community Recreational Centre last autumn are beginning to be apparent. Already, less than five months after the show, a stamp club, a camera club, and a shell-craft class have been organized. Added to that, a group of eight young people from the Jown recently received leadership certi­ ficates on/completion of a course in leathercraft at the- Y.M.C.A. in London. Three members of that group made a particularly good showing by receiving a rating of more than 90 per cent on their work. One received 05 per cent. This is all very gratifying to the sponsors, and to those interested in hobbies. Considerable talent in various arts and crafts has been displayed locally, and the formation of groups of people with a iliu- tual interest is likely to prove beneficial to all. What Others S a y: MRS. A. J. HARRIS CLAIMED BY DEATH The death of Matilda Foster, wi­dow of Alfred J. Harris, occurred onWednesday, April 14. The late Mrs.Harris who was in her 74th year,was born in North Oxford, where she resided until her marriage, when shemoved to West Zorra, residing therefor some years, followed by a resi­ dence of 14 years in Kingsville. Forthe past year she had lived on KingSt. West. She had been ill in a nurs­ ing home for six weeks.A member of the Baptist Church,she was held in high esteem by a wide circle of friends.Surviving is a daughter, Mrs. Ger­trude Roberts of Tillsonburg, a son,Orwell F. Harris of Ingersoll, aprandson, Ronald Roberts of Wind­sor, and a sister, Mrs. Charles Phil­lips of Weston. The late Mrs. George Sebbens, Canterbury St., was also asister.The funeral service, conducted by Rev. J. M. Ward, pastor of the Bap­tist Church, was held at the Keelerand Johnstone Funeral Home on Sat­urday afteiqjoon, and was very large­ ly attended. A profusion of floralofferings were tokens of esteemand sympathy. The pallbearers' who also acted asflower bearers, were Ronald Roberts,George Lashbrook, Archie Anderson, Roy Warren, Gordon Foster, James Nancekivell. Interment took placein the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery. Heart Research . . . We ought to be horrified at the toll that so-called “heart failure” takes. Of the 35,000,000people more than 45, in this country, one out of five has one of the many neart diseases, and a mil­ lion in this group will die of their affliction this yew.Nor are the young spared. Heart disease is the leading cause of death among children between the ages of 10 and 15. . . . Even among young adultsbetween the ages of 19 and 24 heart disease is thesecond highest cause of death. . . . In the face of such facts it is about time thatsomething was done about heart diseases. To besure, some research clinicians and physiologistshave devoted their lives to the study of diseases of the circulatory system. But there has been no suchorganized year-in-and-year-out effort in studyingthe heart and blood vessels as there has been in tuberculosis, cancer or infantile paralysis. Whatdiseases of the heartjneed is more systematic, morepersistent research, Jnore education to drive homewhat has been leanfied in the last generation, re­ spite the appalling record some heart diseases canbe cured. ... By letting the people know what canand what cannot be done to alleviate those who areafflicted by granting money for scientific research,there is no doubt that in 10 years the heartdi.-sEse record will make less alarming readingthan it does now.—New York Times. — Silence On The Farm Spring plowing time is here again. The fresh­rhubarb aroma of new-turned earth basking in the warm sun arouses nostalgic memories. But withthem comes a disturbing suspicion that farming’sgetting too comfortable. Who says it is? We’s looking at a late report onjeeps, now owned by 50,910 farmers. Lads in uni­form called’’em the world’s roughest riding ve­hicles, but farm owners say th»ir outstanding char­ acteristic for agricultural work is comfort.Even the Gl’s admitted riding beat walking, butthat’s not all. /Replying to questionnaires, somejeep farmers say they have “installed radios and now even brieg mamma and the kids along whiledoing what used to be lonely chores in the fields.Tut, tut and alack! What's to become of ourstrong, silent men of the soil if that sort of thing gets common? We can’t imagine Bobby Burnscomposing his ode to a field mouse with a jeepchugging and its radio blaring, “She’s Too Fat ForMe.” Mamma and the kids, indeed! One of farming’sgreater virtues is opportunity offered for escapefrom conversation. Broad fields. Warm sun. Sil­ence save for the swish of mule tail, creak of har­ ness, song of bird and hum of bee. Time and space for a man to commune with nature and savor hisown thoughts. One reason for a low farm divorce rate, we opine, is that when pop comes in for meals mamma is ready to talk and he’s in a mood to lis­ten. With such farm comfort ’tis national folly totamper.—Denver Post. Lost Talent . . , There is (much lost talent in music and all cultural fields largely because of a present-daytendency to substitute the role of spectator to thatof participant. This “spectator fixation” is a di­ rect product of our way of life and it is by nomeans confined to (music and cultural activities).In the realm of sport for example, lamentations of the prophets of Physical Fitness ascend to highheaven. The ghosts of the past rise to mock themwith nostalgic memories of the once numerous skating rinks, thronged with students, teachers,and professors, clerks, office managers and propri­etors, and they hear again the music of the bands and the ring of steel blades on the ice, and seeagain the graceful rhythmic sweep of the skaters;or they are reminded of the hundreds of snowshoe trails and well-beaten moccasin paths that pattern-''ed the wintry landscape, and the laughing crowdsthat swung along the snowy trails. Gone are most of the rinks or turned to other uses, and in theirstead we build bigger and better bleachers for big­ger and noisier crowds of "sports fans”. Gone, too,are most of the snowshoe trails, and the snowshoeshave long since been sent to the salvage depot.—Ethel Kinley in Winnipeg Free Press. In the realm of political organization there is noquick answer. But there is hope that morality can gradually be translated into law. We must pressforward vigorously to develop the sense of a worldcommunity which will make world government feasible.—Christian Science Monitor.

President, Mayor Mil- B £££i£^N A T IO N A L RAILWAYS • AIRLINES • STEAMSHIPS • HOTELS • EXPRESS • TELEGRAPHS THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE. THURSDAY. APRIL 22. 1948“ MY WEEK "— by —R. J. Deachmaa Freight rates have gowe up. It is regrettable but it cannot be nelped. Freight rates are a part of the cost of every commodity, a substan­ tial part They represent a good deal mor* >n final products than we are inclined to think. It is not alone the direct freight rate paid by the mer­ chant on the goods which he sells you over the counter, there is an ocean freight rate as well and when one goes up the other is iikcly to follow. Take the cost of agricultural implements, freight is a bigger item than appears on the surface. These different commodities which enter into the production of a binder must be assembled in the factory before it is built and these items plus the cost of the freight in its shipment to the farmer constitutes a rather sub­ stantial item. Freight rates, however, have not gone up in the last 25 years, except for certain minor adjustments made here and there. The farmer is get­ ting more for his wheat than he forpnerly received, the worker re­ ceives higher wages. Profits too have risen but mainly because of in­ creased volume of business rather than in increa sed production. We must face these facts. A war is a tre­ mendously shocking and disturbing thing, it upsets all our calculations. We were hardly over the effect of World War I before World War II was upon us and we sh^ll not be rid of the effects of World War II for a good many years even if we escape the fateful adventure of World War III. I read an item in a Book Review the LAYMEN S ASSOCIATIONMEETS AT THAMESFORDA meeting of the Laymen's Asso­ciation of the Deanery of Oxford, was held in St John’s Parish Hall,Thamesford, on Wednesday evening.April 14th. The chair was occupiedby Mr. Winter, president of theAssociation and 70 members werepresent from the various parishes of the Deanery.The meeting was opened byprayer, by the Rev. Carmen Queen, of St. James’ Church, Ingersoll.After routine business it was de­cided to hold a Deanery picnic again this year at Tillsonburg, and a com­mittee was appointed to make nec­essary arrangements.The speaker of the evening wastht Rev. Prof. Tallman of WesternUniversity, who was introduced by The Rev. Mr. Doidge of Tillsonburg.Professor Tailman gave a mostinteresting talk on the early history of the Anglican Church in Canada,and showed in a most interestingway how the early church spread, through the efforts of missionariesand Clergy, who partcically sacri­ficed their lives, in the effort to es­ tablish the church throughout Can­ ada, in the strenuous times of theearly development of Upper andLower Canada.At the conclusion of the address,the Rev. Archdeacon Townsend spoke briefly and most encouragingly< of the response to the Missionary Culling Dairy HerdIncreases ReturnsA profitable dairy herd cannot be maintained with poor producing cows, particularly with present high labor and feed costs. Nothing will reduce production costs and increase profit more than a rigid culling of the herd. Experiments have shown that al­ though there may be some superior dams in a mediocre or poor produc­ ing family line, the offspring of these dams will tend to revert to the aver­ age production of such family lines. It is particularly true in the selection of herd sires. A recent survey of 233 dairy farms in British Columbia disclosed that the cost of producing one pound of but­ terfat varied from 12.87 cents to 127.47 cents. Obviously the milking efficiency of these herds varied con­ siderably, and no doubt the farmer with low cost maintained the effic­ iency of his by getting rid of unprof­ itable producers. At the Dominion Experimental Station, Summerland, B.C., says S. R. Noble, a rigid culling procedure has been followed since 1924. Every decreased production materially thesire is immediately disposed of. Alldaughters from this sire are also cull­ed out. If the sire Index reveals in­creased production in the daughters,and replacements in the herd are urgently required, the daughters of the good family lines are retained. If further culling is possible, daughters from the lower producing dams in the good family lines are als» dis­ carded.This method of culling insures themaintenance of an efficient herd andgives good assurmice for the futurebreeding program. Although the fuchsia is known generally as a house or greenhouse plant, some varieties when grown in moderate temperature, such as New Zealand, become small trees. KING’S DAUGHTERSTO HOLD BANOUET' A joint meeting of representativesof the three Ingersoll Circles of theKing's Daughters was held at thehome of Mrs. W. L.

In order that a sire index may be ob­ tained as soon as possible, all daugh­ ters of herd sires are retained for at least one complete lactation. At the completion of the first five daugh­ ters’ lactations, a tentative sire index is calculated by comparing the dam­ daughter records. At the same time a chart is kept of each family line. At the present time there are at the station two good family lines and one mediocre family line. If a tentative sire index shows that herd sire has other day. It quoted Thoe. Masaryk as saying this: “If this old world were threatened with some great cosmic disaster we would be united in the effort to avoid it.” True, yet in the great cataclysm of war we concentrate upon the idea of win­ ning it rather than avoiding it and there are times when this seems the only possible thing to be done. What a tragedy!• • • I am highly delighted at times to see the bright flashes which come from British papers. A few days ago The Economist in commenting on a speech by the Rt. Hon. A. V. Alex­ ander. Minister of War in the Attlee Government had this to say: “His speech was disappointing:it gave little more than a para­phrase of the White Paper, and Licked the clarity of ideas and im­aginative sweep that a good Min­ister of Defence should command.Mr. Alexander in that position, istoo much like one of the battle­ships he has recently scrapped;solid, slow, old-fashioned, re­ liable but with too much weightabove the water-line for theBikini age. Indeed the! most cog­ ent charge against his exposition’ was that the new defence policyhas too much of the old look.” Ah, that’s a brigh.t statement. Criti­ cism, as sharp in this country, might ■make our House of Commons brighten up. There is always too much of a tendency to drift into a debate which becomes chronically boring, the members get weary of the House and go to their own rooms merely for the sake of getting away from it. All this does not mean that the Canadian House of Commons is al­ ways dreary, far from it. There are many hanpy moments when the light breaks through and we catch a glimpse of sunshine through the gloom. Fellow-Employee Honoured with Gifts Ernest McDonald, a valued em­ ployee of North American Cyana-mid. Limited, since 1929, was honor­ed by fellow employees at the firm’s lunch room at the noon! hour onWednesday last. In recognition of his long term of service, he was presented with a goldknife, bearing his monogram, and agold chain. The occasion marked in a formal manner Mr. McDonald’s retirement,which dates from the first of themonth. The presentation was made on be­half of the workmen’s committee bythe president, Ray Sadler, who reuil an appreciative address. The ad­ dress said,/Tit is a pleasant privilegeto convey t6 you a little token of ourregard and an' abundance of goodwishes.” Emphasis was placed upon themanner in which Mr. McDonald had discharged his duties during the many years he had been) connectedwith the firm arid of the pleasantrelationships tha(J had been establish­ed. iIt was stated ‘.‘no demands on yourtime, energy or’patience have been too heavy: you have accepted with good humor everything demanded ofyou and have ever given of your bestto satisfy all. We are vcrv glad you are not leaving town, as we maymeet you from time fro time and chatabout the job.” The gifts and the sentiments ex­ pressed in the address were acknowl­edged in appreciative terms by Mr.McDonald. Previously Mr. McDonald receiv­ed a pipe and a quantity of tobaccofrom the staffs of the office and thestorehouse. Mr. McDonald came to Ingersollfrom Niagara Falls in 1929 whenNorth American Cyanamid began op­erations here, and since that time he and Mrs. McDonald have made many friends in the town and the district mA . An Outstanding Year in Metropolitan’s History (6 1 O /I *7 w as one ycars ,n t^ie UstoryA Tc / of the Metropolitan Life Insurance I Company. “The Company’s financial position was excellent. In Canada and the United States more Metropolitan policy­ holders than ever before enjoyed the blessings of life insurance. Through investments, the Company played a bigger role than in any preceding year in helping to keep the wheels of industry turning ... to provide jobs and homes . , . and to maintain high standards of living. “However, the year was not without its problems. Insurance costs were higher because of lower interest rates, and because of the prevalent increase in the cost of goods and services,” a President Uferoy A. Lincoln reported these facts in his account of the Company's 1947 activities in a motion picture entitled “Pages From An Open Book.” Here are some other important facts about 1947 presented by Mr. Lincoln: —Payments to policyholders and beneficiaries totalled $671,000,000 — topping all records. —More than 2,300,000 people bought Metropolitan policies during the year. The total of Metropolitan policy- holders reached 32,384,000. —At the year-end, policyholders owned a total of $37,250,000,000 of Metrdpolitan protection — the greatest amount in the Company’s history. —Metropolitan will pay in 1948 somewhat more in dividends to policyholders than in 1947, although there will be downward adjustm^pts for certain classes of business. Mr. Lincoln also reported that last year a committee representing all State Insurance Departments completed, as required by law, a periodic examination of Metropolitan. In their conclusions, the examiners reported: “The examination of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company indicates that it is in a sound financial condition." “Policy claims are paid promptly, and fair and equit­ able treatment has been accorded the policyholders.” Metropolitan’s Annual Report for 1947, which is entitled ’’Pages From An Open |$fek,” contains much additional information about the Company’s operations.

To Construct NewFour-Lane Highway Route of a new four-lane con- trolied-access highway, planned for construction between Toronto andWindsor, probably will run midway between Ingersoll and Tillsonburg,, according to a tentative route indi­cated by J. D. Millard, deputy Min­ ister of Highways for Ontario. The construction of a super high­ way which would cpnnect Torontoand Windsor without intermediate stops was announced last week in the Ontario Legislature by High­ ways Minister George H. Doucett.Deputy Minister Millar indicated it is planned to build the new road about halfway between highways Nos. 2 and 3.(Highway No. 2 runs through Ingersoll, and No. 3 connects with Tillsonburg.)In outlining the program, Mr. Doucett said the roads will be built “if not in the immediate future cer­ tainly in the foreseeable future.”" The new highway is included in aprogram which will call for an ex­ penditure of $100,000,000 on roads in the near future. The tentative route, Mr. Millarsaid, will be approximately midway between highways 2 and 3 on the high ridge of land between theThames and Grand watercourses, slightly to the north of Brantford and about midway between London MURDER I WGSTFUL The Easter thank-offering meeting of the combined Missionary Societies of Trinity United Church was held in the Sunday schoolroom on Wednes­ day evening with a splendid attend­ ance of members and friends.

Kay Smith,daughter of Irene, explained1 the con-Idltlons to Johnny. When Irene saw(Johnny she called him Bart, and;ch,d. d him for having been away eqHong. Johnny had Moe find out all hecould about Irene's nurse, Karen. Kaa■ arked Johnny to go with her to meether Uncle Thomas at Northport. Kay already was at the boat­ house, standing in the open cock­pit of a „eedboat. The craft’s ma- hr .any hull gleamed in the late aiternoon sunlight. The surface of the harbor was glass-smooth. “Climb in," Kay said, smiling. She looked refreshed and bright, and gone was the expression that had flared in her eyes such a shorttime ago as she mentioned her father. Sliding beneath the steering wheel, Kay said. "Mind casting offthat rope?" The motor immediately took hold and settled into a deep, powerfulthrobbing. “All set.” Johnny said an instant later as he took a seat beside the girl’s trim figure. Kay fed gas to the motor and the stern of the craft settled down as the bow lifted. Then they were skimming out across the harbor, anda wide, smooth wave curled outward on either side of the boat. Her eyes were bright and shining.She's just a kid, thought Johnny. For all her money, there was some­ thing friendly and real about her. Just before they reached the har­bor outlet, Kay threw the wheel hard over andpthey went Into a. sharp sweep, Cutting back toward the Northport side. The boat heeledover so suddenly that Johnny found his arm across the girl’s shoulder as he steadied himself. He was aware of the warmness of her body be­neath the soft brushed wool of the material. . As she straightened the boat an even keel again she looked athim and smiled. Her face was warm, too, colored with a glow brought on by the rushing wind. Johnny regretted the fact thatthe Northport dock was rushing to­ ward them all too soon. Ashore, walking along the main street of the fashionable Long Is­land town, the day was hot and lifeless again, though the sun was already setting beyond the harbor. They went two short blocks, turneddown a side street, and then Kay Indicated a white-painted stone garage just ahead. They entered the open front doors of the garage. A contrivance built on roller skates shot out from beneath a nearby car and a grease-smearedface grinned up at them. “Hl. Kay!" As the well-built young fellow climbed to his feet, wiping his handson a piece of waste, Johnny recog­ nized the boy who had been on the beach with Kay earlier in the after­ noon. Ralph Dunkirk was big, san-dy-hai^d, and sweat was mingledwith the grease on his tanned face, as he noddea briefly to Johnny. “Hellp,” said Johnny. He knewInstantly that Ralph didn't like the Idea of his being with Kay. “Where’s Uncle Thomas?” the girl asked. i The boy nodded toward an officebuilt into a /front comer of the garage. "Waitin’ in there.""Long?" I“About five! minutes." “Are you coming over tonight. Ralph?" The bronzed young man gave thegirl a thoughtful, steady look. Then he said, "I dunno " Johnny saw color climb into KaySmith’s cheeks. Ralph didn’t look like a chap with whom it would pay to fool around. Johnny saw no rea- aon for getting Involved in a younglovers' quarrel. After all, his was only a platonic interest in Kay. Remembering the wuy he hadthrown against her In the speed­ boat. u Kay had turned the wheel sharply, he decided it was a nice sort of platonic interest. J, T. Smith was walking up anddown inside the garage office with hard, abrupt steps. He turned around sharply and stood watching johnny as be came into the smallroom. Then his head jerked once tn greeting and he held out his hand. “Glad to see you. Saxon." “I trust we didn't keep you wait­ing?* “Did Kay bring you over?" ' Johnny nodded."Where is she?” “Talking to Ralph Dunkirk. She will be along in a moment." Then the millionaire was saying, "It’s all right I’d rather see you alone, anyway. Besides I only have a moment. Kay thought I ought tosee you; otherwise I wouldn't have delayed at all." Johnny said, "Well, there isn’t much to talk about. My partner andI just got out here this afternoon. It’ll take time, you know." “Naturally." J. T. Smith’s words were as crispand sharp as his manner. He was an alert-looking man, with piercing dark eyes and skin that was too sal­low from lack of sufficient sunlight.He made Johnny think of the way a busy, money-making man should look.The millionaire went on: “We dis­ cussed details the other day in my office, Saxon. You write your own expenses on tills case. The thing is, I want my brother’s murderer un­covered. Also, I feel that you can do "RightI" The millionaire glancedat his watch. "So you see? I trust, even while you’re over here this eve­ ning, you haven’t left Irene com­ pletely alone. I’m terribly worriedabout her, Saxon. Nothing—nothing must happen to her. Of course, we have guards—three of them—sta­ tioned on the estate." Smith held out his hand, then Started abruptly for the door. "Youshould be able to reach me IqJKewYork tomorrow afternoon, if W s- sary. I should be back by then. Tell Kay I couldn’t wait for her." With that he was gone. As soon as Johnny heard the roar of J. T. Smith’s black Cadillac re­ cede down the street, he opened thedoor connecting with the garage and looked for Kay Smith. Both she and Ralph Dunkirk had momentarily disappeared. But com­ ing toward him was a mechanic. He was lathering his hands and arms with a paste soap and headed to­ward a wash sink nearby. The man said: "They took a walk down the streetBe right back I guess.”"Thanks,” Johnny said. The garage was quiet This must tion and support of the W.M.S. Miss Sparling held the undivided attention of her large audience as she related her eyewitness account of the des­truction, suffering and heroism caus­ ed by the freauent bombings of homes, churches, schools, and hospit­als by tne Japanese. The appreciation of the gathering was extended to 'Miss Sparling by Mrs. Facey, Appreciation was also extended to the members of Trinity Church for their generous contribu­ tions of good used clothing—30 large cartons—which were packed and shipped to Europe. The meeting was closed with a hymn and the Mizpah benediction, refreshments were served in the par­lors, and a social period was enjoyed by all. Music iers the province.

You’re familiar with writers, and the way they think, andthe things they do. That should fur­nish common ground between Irene and you.’’ He frowned again. ’’That is, if you can create some spark of/remembrance about her writing . . about that manuscript on which she was working.” Johnny asked, "You haven’t any idea wtyat it was, exactly, and where it might be located?” "No." J, T. Smith walked impa­ tiently up and down the room once,paused, and looked hard nt Johnny. “You would think the manuscript would have been in her desk or in her room. Those would be logicalplaces. But no one’s seen it. I feel that if you can find that story, talk to her about it. that it might be the basis for stirring her memory.” “By the way,” said Johnny, “what about your brother’s car. the one he was in at the time of the—” a “The car’s right here in the ga-i rage,” said the millionaire. “You can'look it over, but I doubt if it will do any good.” When Johnny's level, dark brows raised a trifle, Smith explained,"The police have seen it. They still insist the murder was committed by a person or persons who had rob­ bery as the single motive. But I’vehad a feeling all along there's more to It than that. That’s why I em- piojted you and let the police endof It drop. It’s your Job to find out what did happen that night two weeks ago. Another thing . . ." Johnny waited. Smith had pickedup his hat and paused for a last comment. "As I told you, I still feel that Irene's life might be in danger.I've tried to find out if anyone else was in the car with my brother and his wife that night We don’t know.” “You mean," Johnny prompted,’■someone they might have both known, and who could know aboutthe crime?" J. T. Smith said abruptly, “Yes; that’s what I mean." The frown wasdeep between his dark brows. “Let’s assume this third person— X— could have been along with them. He—or she—possibly knows the murdereror te the murderer, yet is perfectly safe as long as Irene remembers nothing about that night” Johnny nodded. “But if Irene does snap out of tt then X will no long­ er be an unknown quantity " be the fellow Johnny nad nearaworking on a smashed fender a little while ago.

The rear section, from what he could make out. was the repair department Johnny said, "I understand you have the Smith car here ... the one which was cracked up." “Yeah,” said the husky mechanic. He took a dirty towel from a hookand started wiping his arms. He raised his chin and Indicated a rear comer of the shop. “You’ll find ’er back there.” He joined the Investigator asJohnny started toward the back of the garage, pointed to a big gray­ colored sedan. “That's the job.” Johnny walked around the car.The front end was bashed in; the windshield had cracked, but not shattered. The two front wheels were toed in and one tire was flat. The mechanic said, “There’s only a slight drop-off there where she drove off the road in her excitement.Otherwise . ..” "You mean, Irene Smith?" “Yeah . . . Otherwise, she might have broken her neck. Lucky the cardidn’t go over." Johnny bad noticed that the sides and top of the car were undamaged.* He asked, "Do you know wherethat place is on Route 25-A where she drove off the highway?" “Sure. I’m the one who towed thiscrate in the next morning.” "Do you work on Sunday morn­ings?" "No, we’re closed Bundays." The fellow gave Johnny a curious look. He had a small pug nose and freck­les.

Belore and Prominent ThamesfordResident Passes Away Her many friends in Thamesford and the surrounding district were shocked to learn of the passing of Annie J. Rutherford, beloved wife of Dr. H. B. Atkinson, on Friday, April 10th. She was suddenly stricken while attending a church social and expired before medical aid could reach her. The late Mrs. Atkinson was born in Embro in 1884, and played a prominent part in the life of that community, and also in Thamesford, where she had resided since 19441* She was a member of the Methodist Church and choir, Embro, and later joined Knox United Church. In Thamesford she was a devoted mem­ ber of Westminster United Church, belonging to both the Women’s Association and the Missionary So­ ciety. A valued member of Rebekah Assembly, she was the first noble grand of West Zorra Lodge. The Women’s Institute also benefitted by Mrs. Atkinson’s interest, as she ser­ ved as president and director of the West Zorra Branch and also assisted . in organizing the Grace Patterson Branch in Thamesford. Her passing is a distinct loss to the community. The sympathy’ of a , large circle of friends is extended to: her husband and two sons, Dr. Anson Atkinson, Norwood. Ont., and Roy Atkinson, Montreal. A private funeral service at the t William Carrothers' Funeral Home,1 on Monday afternoon, preceded the | public service held at Knox United ; Church, Embro, at 2.45, which was ; attended by a very large number of relatives and friends. Rev. Roy I Connor, London, formerly of Em-1 bro, conducted the service, assisted by Rev. Stanley Johnston, Thames­ ford, and Rev. Glen Taylor, Embro. Peter Smith sang, “Jesus, Lover of My Soul”. The Women’s Missionary Society attended in a body. Mem~ bers of Zorra Rebekah Lodge acted as flower bearers, and the following ' neighbours were pallbearers: Thos. Brownlee, John F. McMurray, Wil­ liam Loughlin, Albert Quait, Wiiliam J. McKay, Frank Harris. Interment took place at North Embro Cemetery.

Minutes of the previous i meeting were read and adopted, fol- j lowing which President J. Priddle in-1 troduced the speaker. Past Provin­ cial Commander, Comrade Erie Bur­ gess.i Mr. Burgess spoke briefly of a meeting he attended in Ingersoll 17 years ago, and several of the mem­ bers present were at that meet­ ing. He pointed out that it was through the hard work and steady efforts of men like these, not only in Ingersoll, but throughout. Canada that the veterans of to-day enjoy such good things, as the present sy­ stem of pensions, medical treatment and help in many of their problems. Following this he answered several questions, relating to Legion work and organization. Special mention was made of the work organization and purpose of the Service Bureau. Mr. Burgess concluded his remarks on Legion topics, and was extended a vote of thanks by President Priddle. Following this, each of the guests were called upon for a few remarks. Comrade Chas.

A short general discussion follow­ ed when several points were jironed out and the meeting was closed by Past President Chas.

For a number ofyears she resided with her uncle andaunt, Rev, John Baikie and Miss Ella Baikie, at Miami, Man. On Mr.Baikie’s retirement from the activeministry in the Presbyterian Church, the family came to Ingersoll, resid­ing on Charles St. West.Miss Hossack’s life was devoted to the service of others.

Dr. Powers sug­ gested that the lot be cleaned up, all refuse cleared back from the road, ' no more dumping at the east side, , but built up in the north portion. He i also suggested a fence around the property with barb wire strands1J along the Jop and a gate locked ex- ] cept when properly supervised poss­ ibly eight hours a day. This would ’ keep the children out and put re- j spontibility for proffer placing of (loads on the supervisor. Dr. Powers I also said that there had been com- ' plaints from the neighbors regard- ■ ing the smoke nuisance and objected tto the drivers with garbage trucks i being overloaded and uncovered with • refuse spread over the streets en­ route to the dump. (Mayor Riley stated that a com- t mittee had been appointed to look I after the situation with Councillor ‘ Healy as chairman and the commit- , tee y working on certain plans, in- < eluding the building of a fence. It 1 was pointed out that the council’s 1 desire was to co-operate with the health unit and appreciated the man- < ner that the dump problem had been < brought before the members. Councillor Fred Wurker asked to (be relieved of his position represent- - ing the council on the Community ! Recreation Commission, and on mo- ' tion of Councillors Morrison and (Healy, his resignation was accepted j and Councillor Russell Nunn ap- I pointed in his stead. j Mayor Riley made the following j statement to the council regarding the possibility of having further ;representation on the Public Utili- • ties Commission from the Municipal Council. j As the council knows, the Mayor ■ is a member of the Public Utilities. . along with the two commissioners , elected by the people and the three 1 of us comprise the personnel of the Commission. During my 4 yeais as ' a member of the Public Utilities, I , have never gotten along very well with the other two members, when it came to putting through some­ thing I was sponsoring their two votes were nearly always against : me and I think we have the wrong : set-up on the Commission. I would like to see another member of the council a Commissioner along with . the Mayor. Upon making inquiries I find there are other municipalities of our size that have a larger mem­ bership on the Public Utilities and I definitely feel this would be a benefit to Ingersoll. I am asking our solicit­ or, Mr. Marshall if he will look into the Municipal law and find out what we can do, so it can be submitted to the council for your consideration. On motion of Councillor Ranger and Morrison, all street oiling peti- . tions are to be presented to the council by May 3rd. Only those , streets thpt are petitioned for will be treated this year.

Page 8 THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, APRIL 22,19 ISFARM TRACTORSCAN ORIGINATE FIRES THE TYPOGREMLIN WILLDO ALMOST ANYTHINGA lot has been written about the Gremlins, but oddly enough nobody has ever said a word about the Typo­ gremlin! We can’t understand that. We’ve known about Typogremllns for years. They’re awful. The Typogremlin delights in sneaking up on a galley while the editor’s back is turned «nd transpos­ ing the lines of type. Then he runs in front of the proofreader while he is reading the proof; this makes the proofreader blink just as he was about to read the transposed lines, and of course the misplaced lines get in the newspaper. Sometimes the Typogremlin per­ ches on a typesetting machine, grin­ ning very wickedly. When the oper­ ator comes to a name, the Typogrem­ lin leans forward, snickering, and joggles the operator’s elbow. Then it comes out like this: Tyrogrmelni. He never does this for names like Ayudhya or Dnepropetrovsk, but only for Smith, Jones and Brown. But that’s nothing. You know what the Typogremlin does some­ times? He makes another error in a line which has been corrected. So, if the first story says that Mr. Smith is a defective on the police force and the editor horrifiedly corrects it, the Typogremlin makes it read,-"Mr. Smith is a detective on the police farce.” Then the Typogremlin roars with laughter. The Typogremlin thinks the best fun however, is changing the eco- I nomic system of the district. He ! likes to sell a 24-pound bag of flour for either 11 cents or 11 dollars and 9 cents. He’d rather not sell it for $1.19 if he can avoid it. This makes ever so many people mad, and the Typogremlin is tickled pink. There is a minor species of Typo­ gremlins called the Slugremlin. He specializes in putting things in in­ stead of taking them out. He likes to put "ADD BIRTHS” on top of a story about Mrs. Smith becoming a mother for the seventh time. At the bottom he will put 'MORE MORE’. You can imagine how delighted he is when he succeeds. But the Slugremlin is only a sub­ species. The Typogremlin will do al­ most anything; usually does. —From the Atlanta Journal PEST CONTROL ASSISTS MAXIMUM PRODUCTION Maximum production of foods isnot only good business but in view of the world shortage is almost a humanitarian duty.

W.''-ft Caskey, solicitor to the Ontario fireY marshal's office emphasized the possible fire danger from farm trac-1 tors and trucks. Pointing out' thatautomotive engineers have designedtrucks and tractors so that the least possible fire hazard exists, so long as the equipment is kept in good run­ ning order, Mr. Caskey said that- "most fires originating from gasoline-4 driven vehicles can be traced to oneof the following:Poor Maintenance-Thc importantitems are mufflers, gasoline lines,carburetors and the ignition system. Trouble rarely comes suddenly andthere are usually warnings of defectswhich can be detected in advance. Improper refueling and imperfectfuel storage—small quantities ofgasoline if required should be car- ied in safety cans only, and motorshould be stopped, manifold andmuffler be reasonably cool and no smoking, while tank is being filled.Accumulations of dust, oil andcombustible material—A load of train passing the muffler too close may take fire, straw or chaff mayblow, to accumulate on the engine,clog the radiator, pile up on the muffler, buildup around the tractoror truck to provide di-^ ,-contact■with heated parts or get close enough for sparks to ignite. ’ Poor judment in operating the equipment, or unexpected accident— k Tractors and trucks being driven inand around farm buildings should beQkhandled with the same care and »frood judgment given to driving a , an(J SOCJal W(?JXjSar on a crowded highway.

That,however, belongs to a period morethan fifty years ago.About hal f a century ago. Mr.lonson occupied the front part ofthe building with his drugRRglpre. while the ovens in the rear contin­ued to be used by Fred Dutton, thenMr. Brooks, Mr. Wills and finallyMr. Scanlon, who sold out. in 1908 to Mr. Zurbrigg. Zurbrigg’s Bakery,therefore, will celebrate its fortiethanniversary in Ingersoll this year.During those early years thoush,the front part continued to be usedas a drug store, with Leo Law suc­ceeding Mr. lonson. Zurbrigg’s had a counter in McLeod and MacBain’sgrocery store, where they sold theirl bread and cakes, until 1936, when they took over the whole building. where their ovens were located. LeoLaw then moved to King street west.More recently, Zurbrigg’s have I added a building on the east side of |Oxford street to their establishment.Next to that is one of the few buildings on the main street not tohave shown any great change for agood many years.

A dose of the ’flu or a fever and your appetite leaves you at the mere sight of food. If you have a patient, take care of his diet. Doctors do not usually pre­ scribe a special diet but recommend the elimination of fried foods and spicey foods and the increased use of Vitamin-rich dishes. Build up with Bl. People who get too little thiamine (Vitamin Bl) have poor appetites: it aids digestion, steadies the nerves and keeps one on the up and up. Breakfast cereals (whole-grain ones) and enriched breads and yeast are important sources of Bl. Dried peas, beans, canned tomatoes, baked potatoes and citrus fruits add their bit. The yolks of 2 eggs provide as much as a med­ ium baked potato; one pint of milk as much as 3 eggs% Pork, liver and kindney are the best meat sources. TAKE A TIP 2 tablespoons granulated gelatin 1-4 to 1 cup sugar 1-2 cup cold water 3 cups boiling liquid (water, fruit juice or coffee)* Soak the gelatin in cold water,! pour boiling liquid on the gelatin and ' stir until dissolved. Add the sugar, stir to dissolve it, then add the re­ mainder of the liquid either hot or cold. If cold liquid is used, the mix­ ture will set more quickly. Pour into a cold, wet mould and chill.

If the patient is sleeping at meal time it may be better to let Him have a snack when he awakens. 2. Eat often and in small quan­ tities. Four or five light meals in­ stead of '.hree square ones are far better for convalescents. Avoid a.l highly seasoned foods and coarsb- textured vegetables, unless you sieve them. Fatty foods and rich desserts are out. Strong tea and coffee are not good for you. Weaken them with hot milk, 3. A good breakfast. That’s easier said than done, I know. Eat your own breakfast and the smell of it may interest a patient in toast and poached eggs—but don’t forget the orange juice and hot milk-coffee. 4. Change menus every day. You can make appetizing menus out of the smooth, easy-to-digest foods. Here are some suggestions: (1) Creamed Eggs bn Toast with Ba­ con. Applesauce Pudding and Cu­ stard Sauce. (2) Strained Cream of Celery Soup, Tomato Omelette. Sieved Peas, Orange Sherbet. (3) Baked Chicken in milk. Baked Pota­ toes, Orange and Grapefruit sections with Cherries and Jell-O.

C. I. STAFF ASCOMMERCIAL ASSISTANTPrincipal J. C. Herbert, princl- Ottawa. April 20 — New high marks in the number of poheyhokiera, amountof life insurance in force, and payments to policyholders were attained byMetropolitan Life Insurance Companvin Canada during 1947, Glen J. Spahn.in charge of the company’s Canadian operations, announced concurrentlywith the publishing of Metropolitan'sannual statement.The number of policyholders in < anadaat the end of 1947 was 2,340,000.showing that approximate!v one out ofhvc Canadians is a Metropolitanpolicyholder. The amount of life insurance that tbev held was$2,083,391,707 compared with$1,937,785,490 in 1946. The 1947 state­ment shows that 58% of thia totali» owned by Ordinary policyholders,31% by Industrial jwlicyholdera ami11% by Group policyholders. The amount of paid-for life insuranceissued during 1947 was $209,634,649, afigure which carried Metropolitan’s Canadian business in force beyondUie two-billion mark for the first timein its 75 years of operating in Canada. Payments to Canadian policyholdersand their beneficiaries last year amount­ed to $36,222,913 in death claims,matured policies, dividends and other payments. Payments were made at therate of $343.61 a minute of eachbusiness day, and of the total amount69% a as paid to living policyholders. In this connection, Mr. Sjmhnpointed out* that the total amount thatMetropolitan has paid to Canadians . since it entered Canada in 1872, plus :the amount now invested in Canada,exceeds the total premiums received !from Canadians by more than$306,000,000. J Metropolitan's total investments in jCanada at the end of 1947 amounted .to $4SO,3O3,977. Of this amount, 51% iis in Dominion of Canada Bonds. Since <the close of the war Metropolitan’s < new investments have gone increasingly «to help meet the needs of industry and ’the community, just as they were <doing before the war. At the end of 1947, Metropolitan’s (assets for its entire operations in ] Canada and the United States stood (at $8,548,422,601. These assets, ofwhich $3,876,921,624 were in Canadiah (and United States government bonds, )were held to assure fulfilment of robligations to policyholders, bene- |fkiarics, and others amounting to ($8,048,865,245, with general surplus funds amounting to $499,557,356 whichrepresented about six percent of thecompany’s obligations. Chiefly because of the decline in the rate of interest earned on investments, over i,oou,ouu pampmetsMetropolitan is revising dividend scales | safety were distributed. CLEN J. SPAIIN Second Vice-President in charge ofthe Canadian Head Office, whoreports that the total amount the.Metropolitan Life has paid to Canadians since it entered Canadain 187£, plus the amount now in*tested in Canada, exceeds thetotal premiums received from Cana­dians by more than £306,000,000. for Ordinary and Industrial policies.This involves a reduction in dividendsin many cases. In spite of this, however, the amount reserved for dividends topolicyholders payable in 1948 was$141,215,117 which is a new high totalfor the comjrany. This is due mainly to the increase in the amount ofbusiness in force. Of this amount,Ordinary policyholders will receive$64,907,117, Industrial policyholders $15,655,000, Group policyholders(excluding accident and* health)$22,725,000, and Accident and Healthpolicyholders $7,928,000. Including the declaration for 1948, Metropolitan willhave paid to policyholders in the formof dividends a total of $2,544,945,636. As Metropolitan’s business inCanada, as well as in the United States,has touched new high points, so thecompany’s efforts to improve health have continued at their peak. InCanada during 1947, a total of 234,835nursing visits was made to those in­sured under Metropolitan Industrial,Intermediate and Group policies. Inaddition, the company took part in54 Canadian health campaigns, andover 1,500,000 pamphlets on health and pal of the Ingersoll Collegiate In-stiute, informed The Tribune on Saturday morning that Miss Lillian Baker, B.A., of London, will Jointhe staff in September to assist in thecommercial deyartment and to teach junior English throughout the school. An anticipated increasedenrollment in the commercial de­ partment, Principal Herbert ex­ plained, necessitates the engage­ment of an assistant.Miss Baker is a graduate of theUniversity of Western Ontario inhonor English and French. Sha is also a graduate of the WesterveltBusiness College in London. MissBaker plans to take a summer course at the Ontario College of Educationin commercial subjects.For the past five years, Miss Baker has been on the staff of the Streets- ville High School, where she taughtEnglish and history throughout theschool. She has had considerable ex­ perience in directing dramatics at the Streetsville school.The commercial department of theIngersoll Collegiate Institute, which is headed by Miss E. Barber, hashad quite a demand for its gradu­ates, Principal Herbert states.

We Must Refuse To Hide Facts By Eva-Lis WuorioHorace said that knowledge ispower. By that I suppose he meanswe could fight fear and its allies withknowledge, and have power over our­selves.I thought of that when the Can­adian Cancer Society launched itscampaign to fight cancer with facts.Fears and suspicions gnawing theedges of your mind can be defeatedby clear facts. Alo, should there be reason for fear4 early knowledge ofthe truth can in case of illness liktecancer actually prevent death.We have been afraid of truth too long. There are many examples evenon national scales on the results offalsifying or hiding facts. We haven’t far to look to-day. Here is a point. Some 15,000Canadians died of cancer last year.Up to half of these deaths could have been prevented by early diag­ nosis and treatment. But for too longwe have shied away from the dreadword, cancer. It seemed better to letsuspicions lie dormant. We might tell the ancient Greekphilosopher today that there is notonly power in the clear light of knowledge—but also safety.

QUILTING AND POT LUCK SUPPER HELD BY GROUP 2 The April meeting of Group 2 oi St. Paul’s Ladies Aid was held in the church primary room on Thurs­ day, April 15th, with a good attend­ ance. Mrs. H. H. Turner gave the Bible reading and prayer which was followed by the comments by Mrs. J. Montgomery. The afternoon was FROZEN FRUIT PULP MAKES NEW DESSERT Recently a new frozen fruit des­ sert as creamy as ice cream and asflavourful as fresh fruit was demon­strated by the Horticultural Division, Dominion Department of Agricul­ ture. Consisting only of pulped fruitslightly diluted with water and withsugar and small amounts of gelatinand ascorbic acid added, the dessert is frozen while being mixed and aer­ated by a puddle beater. Althonghentirely free of butter-fat, it has thetexture of ice cream. Prepared 'in this fashion, mostfruits retain their natural colour,from the pastel shades of melon andgreengage to the ruddiness of rasp­ berries. The flavour varies front thebarely perceptible peach through thesubtle rhubarb to the raspberry,which/ tastes even richen than fresh picked berries. The tart black andred i currants are more pleasing tomany when served with meats ratherthan as dessert. The purpose of the Department ofAgriculture in perfecting this des­sert is to conserve food. tMuch fruitis wasted when a crop ripens rapidlyin warm, mugvy weather. By thisnew process the fruit can be pulpedand frozen immediately, and later sugared and stabilized by gelatin. Result of several years of researchby the Horticultural Division, thisproduct can now be manufactured commercially, as complete particu­lars of the formulas and processeshave been made available to thetrade by the Department. The policy of making its discov­eries available to industry is in linewith the Horticultural Division’s ear­ lier improvements in dehydrating apples and in fruit storage at lowand high temperatures. Under the direction of jf. B. Davis, Dominion Horticulturist, the Division synthe­tically created during the war themoist hot temperature of the juncle. to study the problem of feeding fruit to troops in semi-tropicalcountries.
