Amoving Sand Undermined
Victoria Street Pavement
called
of the
to soil
timber
The major part of the evening
was taken up by the Town Council
on Monday, discussing difficulties
encountered in the sewerage project
on Victoria street All the council
lors were present with Mayor Riley
presiding and engineer R. V. Ander
son, a representative of the Bath
urst Construction Co., and Inspector
James Buchanan were in attendance
to explain the situation.
Inspector Buchanan was
upon to present an outline
trouble. He said that owing
conditions the extra cost of
that could not be reclaimed had in
creased by four times. Safety in
spectors from the Workmen’s Com-’
pensation Board, had been on the
job and advised complete shoring of
the trench and so far the contractors
had complied with their require
ments by a plan of close sheeting pil
ing.
The soil conditions have proven to
be of rimming sand and with the
digging of the trench 30 inches
wide, the sand caves in and* the con
crete ruadway is so far undermined
that until the 18 foot level is pass
ed, there is little hope of saving the
roadway,
ditch has increased from 58 centsper lineal foot to $20.00 per foot in i
one section.
Mr. Buchanan advised that the
road be broken up for the distance
necessary to overcome the difficulty
and the cost of timber could be re
duced to about $10 per foot and a
a new road could be “built at a cost
of $10 per foot or the same amount
that it was costing at the present
time for timler alone.
All the councillors asked for in
formation from the inspector and a
general discussion took place with
Engineer R. V. Anderson explaining
the situation from an engineering
viewpoint. With the costs for extras
running so high, he advised follow
ing the procedure as suggested by
Mr. Buchanan. The -workmen must
be protected and Ingersoll has a
clean sheet in this project as far as
accidents are concerned and which
each contractor is anxious to main
tain.
The cost of breaking up the road-1
The cost df shoring the
way for a distance of approximately
280 feet would carry the work to
the manhole at Victoria and Union
streets, after which it is expected the
soil condition will be different and
with less depth in the trench it will
be possible to carry on with only the
30 inch trench.
A resolution followed sponsored
by Councillors Morrison and Healy,
“That this council go op record of
approving the demolition of the full
width of pavement on Victoria street
where the depth of sewers and soil
conditions make it impractical or too
expensive to attempt to save the.
pavement by timber shoring or close
■ sheet piling.’/ The resolution passed
unanimously.
George Hutchison addressed the
council and asked for fulfillment of
an agreement to supply water to
lots on Evelyn street where build
ings are to be erected. The chairman
of the Fire, Water and Light Com
mittee, L. V. Healy, was instructed
to see that the necessary extensions
are provided.
Councillor Healy reported that the
knoll on Mutual street, near the
Canadian National Railway had been
removed as instructed by the Rail
way Board and the cost will be
shared on a co-operative basis.
On motion of Councillor Healy
and Wurfcer, the account for water
for the public open air rinks of
$12.96, was ordered paid.
Councillor R. Nunn advised the
council that the rewiring of the
municipal buildings had been com:pleted and while the cost had been
heavy, it was felt that the entire
work would now comply with the
regulations and will provide for
greater safety.
Regarding the possibility of more
houses being erected in Ingersoll the
council took definite steps to have
more houses for renting to ex-ser
vice men when Councillors Morrison
and Healy sponsored the resolution
“that the Corporation of the Town
of Ingersoll make forma! application
to Central Mortgage and Housing
Corporation for the construction of
rental housing under the Dominion
Government’s 1948 Rental Housing
Program.
MAN KILLED WHEN
TRAIN AND TRUCK
COLLIDE AT CROSSING'
Murray Reeder, 26, of 142 Oxford
street, Woodstock, brakeman on a
C.P.R. freight train, was instantly
killed at 3.15 p.m., on Monday, May

der on which he was riding. The

ing eastward to the siding at the
William Stone Sons plant, and col
lided with a truck driven by Ross

which was proceeding south on Mu
tual street. Reeder, who was on the
rear step of the tender, was thrown
off, the wheels of the tender passing
over his body. Cunningham received
minor injuries. The truck was dam

was called to the scene of the acci

CHILDREN’S ART
ON DISPLAY AT LIBRARY
Currently on display at the Inger
soll Public Library is a collection of
work done by the Children’s Art
Class, conducted every Monday even
ing by Miss Jean Beattie. This col
lection is found to be an interesting
one when it is realized that it repre
sents the work of children twelve
years of age and under. The young
artists clearly indicate a sense of
construction, form and color upon
which to develop any talent they may
possess. The action pictures are most
interesting.
Ingersoll artists work quietly,
seeking no publicity, but occasion
ally there is very definite evidence
that they are accomplishing some
thing worthwhile and what* is per
haps even more important they are
developing in the younger.generation
an appreciation of art that may
bring high credit to the town
some future date. Viewed in
spirit of vision this display is
couraging.

ON THE ALLEYS
The Oxford Dairy Intercity team
composed of A. Warham, W. Cham
berlain, H. Moggach, C. Chambers
and C. Todd and also the Tiger team
composed of H. Todd, A. Todd. W.
Ashman. T. Ponting and T. Todd,
motored down to Toronto last Satur
day, to compete in the C.B.A. tourn
ament. The wives of most of the men
bowlers also took in this trip which
was certainly enjoyed by all. Also
included in the number going to To
ronto, was the sponsor of the Oxford
Dairy team, >Mr. Sam Wadsworth,
who was right in there encouraging
the Ingersoll bowlers in their play,
but the Dairy boys rolled a team
score of 3,295, which was not good
enough to be in the prize money.
The Tiger teams were bowling a
little better, winning a 3,367 team
score, which may place them in the
prize money for a little of the cash
prizes. It is though that Albert War
ham and H. Moggach will be listed
in the prize money in the doubles
getting 1542 in the doubles. C.
Chambers may also be in the money
in the high aggregate contest as he
rolled a nice total of 2,362 for his
nine games in the three events.

Victoria Day Turns Our Thoughts
Towards The British Empire
Next Monday is Victoria Day, the anniversary
of the birthday of Queen Victoria, who reigned
from 1837 to 1901. Ab a public holiday, it is one
that is eagerly anticipated. The 24th of May is *
the first holiday of the year when we look forward
to outdoor activities.
Apart from being a holiday when we enjoy
sports, work in the garden, go fishing, or take off
the storm windows, the day has lost much of its
originial significance—the honoring of the birth
day anniversary of Queen Victoria. While there
are many people who were bom during the reign
of the beloved queen, there is a great number
whose only knowledge of her has been gained
from what they have heard and read.
Victoria Day, however, has its own special
significance, for it is the only public holiday in the
Dominion of Canada which turns our thoughts to
wards the British Empire. Prior to Victoria Day,
our schools observe Empire Day.
It is well for us to have such a holiday. While
we have earned the right to enjoy the status of
nationhood, we are still proud of our attachment
to the British Commonwealth of Nations. It is
not a boastful pride that we possess, but a humble
one which glories more in the freedom of the in
dividual than in the area of the land surface or
the might of a navy. It is pride in an Empire that
seeks to promote the ways of peace for all the
world, and which wishes to enjoy good-neighbor
relations with all nations. It is pride in an Empire
that has contributed greatly to the advance of
civilization.
We are not unconscious of a pride on Victoria
Day of an Empire that has fought beside other
great nations to thwart aggressors. And it is in
humble pride that our thoughts turn to the suf
fering endured by the people of Great Britain in
war, and even now, so that all the things which
are embodied in freedom might be preserved for •
the Empire and all the world.
Our Victoria Day thoughts dwell, too, upon our
beloved King and Queen. Seldom in history has
any empire been blest with their equal. Amid the
spotlight of the world, they stand out as the
leaders of our great Empire. They lead by ex
ample in gracious daily living, in the upholding
of the things which are right, and in the interest
they show in their subjects, whom they choose to
look upon as fellow citizens.
There is much to think about on this approach
ing Victoria Day. Our pride in our Empire and in
our Dominion of Canada can be best expressed by
resolving to maintain and further those ideals
which have made us great among nations;
Cadet Training Is Important
In Boys’ and Girls’ Education
' Congratulations are due to the staff of the Ing
ersoll Collegiate Institute and the members of the
Cadet Corps on the fine appearance which the lat
ter presented bn their annual church parade re
cently and on their inspection on Friday. There
was reflected in the splendid instruction which the
cadets receive and also a keenness of interest on
the part of the members of the corps in the train
ing.
Cadet training is an important part of a boy’s
education It gives him an insight into army life,
for which we hope none of the boys will ever be
q^Jed upon. We trust that somehow the affairs of
the world will be adjusted amicably so that there
shall never be another war.
The training which the cadets receive is invalu
able in sever?! ways. It teaches them discipline,which is an/ important part of anybody’s educa
tion. W’e do hot want our boys and girls to grow
into "yes” men and women, neither t do we want
them to be irresponsible and disregardfu! of estabt
lished laws and the rights of others. The training
also helps a boy or girl to develop a correct pos
ture. Too many people have developed a slouch
in both walking and sitting, which is not condu
cive to good health nor good appearances
A few years ago, before the recent war, there
was a hue and cry against cadet training. W« hope
that common sense will prevail now and that cadet
training will be strongly supported by the people
of Canada. On the military side of cadet training,
there is much in favor of it As much as we sin
cerely do not want another war, it is better far
to give our boys some elementary training so that
if one should come they would have some prepar
ation. On the far more valuable side there is the
important contribution which cadet training gives
to the boy or girl in health, in deportment and in
posture.
On behalf of the citizens of Ingersoll and the
district, we commend the members of the staff of
the Ingersoll Collegiate Institute on the splendid
work they are doing in cadet training. We also
congratulate the members of the corps on their
response to this trailing, which was so excellently
shown in the recent public appearances.
For Happy Holiday Motoring
Drive Carefully and Courteously
The coming week-end will be a busy one on the
highways. It will be the first week-end holiday of
the year, and many residents of Ingersoll and the
district will be taking "advantage of the long
Week-end to enjoy a motor trip. There will also be
many other motorists on the highways, whose in-
tention will be the same.Every motorist should drive carefully and cour
teously to avoid accidents. The fun of a holiday
trip is quickly spoiled when an accident occurs.
Accidents may result in a loss of life, in long
hospitalization, and in costly repairs to cars.
Cars should be in good mechanical condition for
a holiday trip. Motorists should assure themselves
that their brakes are working perfectly, and they
should drive their cars so that they hav^ them
under control all the time. Courteousness is also
an important factor in promoting safe driving.
We wish all who will be on the highways dur
ing the Victoria Day week-end safe and happy
motoring.

Bowling At Alleys Provides
Splendid Winter Recreation
Five-pin bowlers of the town and district are
completing an active season at the two local bow
ling centres. The closing of an enjoyable bowling
season is being featured by the various leagues
with banquets and the presentations of trophies.
Alley bowling has become a popular winter sea
son sport with many people, which is evidenced
by the large number of men and women bowling
regularly in scheduled games with the numerous
leagues at the local alleys. It is a splendid form
of recreation, particularly in the winter months.
Appreciation is due to the owners of the alleys
for their excellent managament, also for providing
the opportunity for so many residents of the town
and district to become participants in sports in
stead of spectators only. With the season of alley
bowling practically ocmpleted, especially for the
leagues, the bowlers will be turning to other
activities for the summer months, but they will
be looking forward to ah early beginning in the
fall of their league schedules. And before that
time, there will be many practice games, to be
come more proficient in scoring “strikes” and
"spares”, but not “blows!”

When Parents Abdicate
"Reachers in Detroit have been adjured to spankrebellious and obstreperous children and to pur
sue their arduous task of inculcating knowledgein the younger generation with the aid of the old-time woodshed tactics. Says Superintendent ArthurDondineau: "The teacher stands in the place of
the parent towards pupils during school hours”and thus exonerated a teacher who had administered some slight corporal punishmenut to a childdish ruffian who had pulled the blonde tresses of a
small girl in the seat in front.Superintendent Dondineau's difficulty lies inthe fact that the position of many parents towardstheir offspring today is not what it was when they
themselves were raised under papa’s barrel stave.If the modem teacher is to act “in loco parentis”he or she must do so on the assumption that to-

town by a farmer.
On Thursday afternoon as the
teachers were arranging the children
of the public school on the raised
seats of the amphitheatre on the
day’s parents are less given to physical chastise
ment of their children. It is, in fact, because papawithholds his hand so often that teacher is temptedto use his so frequently. And no one estimates the
obstacle confronting the teacher in this respect,
more fully than little Johnny.The Biblical injunction about laying on ofhands had reference to spiritual blessings andbenefits, but it could surely be argued that in
some mysterious wny benefits may be bestowedupon children through the laying on of hands, withsomething in them. At least, it was so in the p’ast.
Actually, today’s teacher stands, not so much
in the place of the parent, as in the place of thecommunity educator. It is better that way than towait until the policeman has to step into the picture at a later date when something more drastic
than the woodshed is the only remedy.—LondonFree Press.

In Joliet, III., it's illegal to try on more than six

We pass on this beef from a terrible-temperedfriend who just dropped in with two armloads of
parcels, a red face and a handful of change
clutched >n one sweaty palm. He dumped his parcels on a desk, pocketed his change and exploded:“Why do you have to do business in a drug
store over a barricade of lotions, tonics and soaps?Nowhere to put down your bundles! A hundredyards of counter and only 18 inches of it clear,
next to the cash register, and always occupied by
two little girls trying to decide what flavor of icecream they want. Do druggists expect us to buythe stuff on the counters just because we have to
fall over it to talk to a clerk? Couldn't eveh get
my change into my pocket short of dumping thisstuff on the floor.”He paused for a moment in bitter reverie.“Not just drugstores, either. Groceries, hard
wares. even the corner candy store—they all pilestock where it annoys me.”Then our friend gathered up his belongings andstalked off, still fuming.—Maclean’s Magazine.

His question trailed off. Neitherof them spoke, and the girl’s slim
fingers dug fiercely Into his arm as
she Involuntarily held onto him.
A little distance away, still un
seen in the darkness, someone was
moving toward them. Footsteps
made hushed scuffing sounds in the
The girl must have been holding
her breath, Johnny thought. Hesuspected that K?'was doing the
same thing himself. The footstepshad paused. Somewhere back from
the shore there was the sound of
crickets in the quiet, warm night.
Neither of them had ever felt so
alone in their life.
They crouched there on the
beach .trying, to hold their panic in,
lor what seemed an eternity.
Then the brilliant flashlight beam

A sharp voice said, "What’s goingon—” The tone of the man’s voice
changed and he exclaimed, “Oh, I
beg your pardon. Miss Kay—”
The light blinked out.

her feet, a sigh of relief escaping her

we went by way of the beach. I’d
like to find that guy, but he’ll hear
our motor."Again Johnny pointed out, "He’ll
be gone, don’t you worry.”
They cast off, and the outboardmade a lot of noise In the quiet
night. It was only a matter of mo
ments until they reached the south
shore. The guard cut the motor andthey drifted in, as he strained his
eyes to pick out a landing spot
Johnny had pointed out what he
thought was the logical spot wherethe rifleman must have been hidden.
Foliage and trees were particularly
heavy at that point, and there was
no beach.Low branches brushed against
them as they bumped the shore.
They climbed out, tying a line to a
tangled stump.
Steve used the flashlight sow, but
at the same time he^kept his right
hand close to the’ unsnapped gun
holster kt,-his hip. His eyes were
and hard. Johnny thought he’looked like a fellow with a lot of
nerve but not too many brains.

not even a path along the shore.They pushed branches aside as they
worked their way along.
From time to time, not far dls-itant, there came the sound of a
passing car along a roadway. John
ny motioned through the woods.
"What highway is beyond here?”
"That's 25-A. it follows the shore."
•Let’s go back there and see if a
car was parked.”
“Say, that’s an ideal" Steve
plowed through the woods andbrush. pointing the light beam ahead
of him.
Presently they emerged along the
highway. The road was winding and
not very wide. Johnny didn’t think
there would be room for a car to
park alongside the highway. Shoul
ders alongside the ribbon of cement
were too narrow.
Two cars passed them, the hum
of their motors quickly fading In
the night The highway swung down
through a little hollow, and there
was a circular area large enough to
accommodate a car.
Steve said, “That’d be about the
only place along here where a ja
lopy could park. Let> look.” ’
Johnny saw marks of tire tracks.
The ground was hard-packed, dry,and there was some dust. But not
enough to take a good impression
of tire treads.
However, directly in the middleof the indistinct tracks were one
or two fresh spots of oil that had-
dropped from an engln* pan. Some
one had parked here, and very re
cently. Though there was no clue as
to who that person might be, it sat
isfied a suspicion that had been running through Johnny Saxon’s mind;
the mysterious gunman had reached
his rendezvous by way of the high
way. the natural route by which he
could make a swift escape.
"Come on,” Johnny laid to the
guard. "Det's find that speedboat.”Returning through the woods,
Steve asked him, "I understand
you're out here workin' on the mys
tery around Martin Smith’s death."
"You might call It working.”
Johnny said.
The estate guard looked at him
as he held a tree branch aside. He
was again leading the way with thelight. His eyes were rather an ex
pressionless pate gray.
“What do you figure about her?"
he continued."Who?”

"So I fixed this for you." She placed

(To Im oocUnuedl
Profestor Harold J. Laski, once
chairman of the British Labor Party
Executive, who has been visiting re
cently in the United States comes
,but with some lurid pictures of war
yver in that country, one of the
most peaceful nations in the world.
Continental Europe was in dread
ful difficulties. The devastation of
the recent war had been greater
than that of any other war in hu
man history. There was fear of fur-
ther conflict, fear too that Europe
would collapse and Communist Rus
sia would march clear through to the
Atlantic.
America was aroused, the Mar-
rtiall Plan was proposed. The idea
was to pour money, which means
food and raw material into Western
Europe in order to get the wheels
of industry turning once more so
that hope might come to the nations
which had borne the real cost of the
war, its misery and its bloodshed.
Some time before that there was a
talk of a loan to Russia, it didn’t go
through. Russia would have accepted
the Marshall Plan and been a part
of it, was in fact entitled to it
Russia, however, declared her oppos
ition to this plan. Why should Rus
sia object to aid being given to the
other countries of Europe?

There is only one" reason, Russia
would profit by the breakdown of
ordered government in Western
Europe. It would leave her in su
preme command of the situation.
The return of prosperous epnditions
to Western Europe might hurt Rus
sia, the news might leak into Hussia
that Western Europe, ii-jler capital
ism with Arne?’’ •< aid, was doing
fairly That is the last thing
.kttssia wanted.
I have said the United States is
the most 'peaceful country in the
world. It has now awakened to the
fart that in the past it has been too
peaceful. It stayed out of World
War I until it was forced to get into
it and stayed out of World War II
until the attack upon Pearl Harbor,
a slap in the face which no nation
could accept. I doubt if there is a
single nation in the world more
anxious for peace, more determined
to avoid war, than the United
States.
The United States, however, has
learned—though Laski has not—that
war cannot be avoided by making up
your mind that you are not going
to fight. It cannot be avoided by re
fusing to recognize the signs of
coming war. The\ United States
watched Japan smash through China
and establish the puppet nation of
Manchukuo. With the resources
gained in that conflict Japan threw
herself against the United States. It
watched Mussolini' as he curried into
effect an unprovoked war on Abyss
inia. It is getting a bit sic& of that
sort of thing and by its conduct it
is now emphasizing the fact that
there is a limit to the Western
march of Communism. The United
States no longer intends .to close its
eyes to the realities of life, ,but war
will not be made by the United
States, war if it comes will be made
by Russia.
I have hopes that Russia will
avoid it. I think it may. We have
the authority of Mr. Laski that it
will. Here is one paragraph:
‘‘It comes as a surprise to most
Americans to be told that Russia
neither wants war nor is in a posi
tion to wage it. It is even more
susprising to be told that most
Europeans believe a settlement is
possible and as urgently desired
by Russians as by the common
people everywhere.”
Well and good—so far as it goes.
Every sane nation in the vy>rld
would welcome some sign or symbol
of the possibility df co-operative
action between Russia and the rest
of the continent of Europe. Can Mr.
Laski see a sign, one single little
thing that would indicate that this is
possible. Perhaps we should allow
something for Russian brusqueness
amPlntransigence. The United States
Juis been very patient. It tolerated
Emperor William. It stood for Hit
ler. The thoughtful people of Amer
ica probably recognize now that, In
the past, they waited too long. It
may be that Russia doesn’t ,w»nt war
but if men who want freedom can
act and will act in a way which
makes war more costly than any
thing else which could possibly de
velop than perhaps peace will come.
The simple proof that peace will be
more profitable than war, especially
wars of despots, would be a salutary
lesson to rulers who harbor the ideas
that world conquest is an easy read
to fame. By the way will Mr. Laski
toll us when any democracy has vol
untarily started a w«r of conquest.

Arrangements were made for an
other home and home series.
On Tuesdy evening the ladies’

For I. C. I. Trustees' Meeting
THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MAY 20,1948
R. W. Green, the chairman, presided over the May meeting of theIngersoll and District Collegiate
Institute Trustee Board, which washeld in the council chamber on Tuesday evening of last week. H. T.
Bower informed the members of theboard, that in accordance with a resolution passed previously, the insur
ance on the building had been increased from 142,000 to $72,000.The coverage, he said, had been divided among three local agents.
Secretary John J. iMcLeod reported that a cheque for $20,000, aportion of the provincial grant, had
been received and placed to thecredit of the board.An interesting report on inspect
ion of the industrial arts and craftsand hoi^e economics departmentswas read!The report dealt with var
ious phases of the work in these de
partments' with comment rangingfrom “gooti” to “very good.”Information was given by the sec
retary as to pupils ffrom this districtwho are attending other schools.Considerable information was con
tained in a detailed report for the
month of April given by Principal-3 J. C. Herbert of the Collegiate Institute. The enrollgient at the school
was given as 1045 boys and 128
girls, a total of 234, with 68 outsideof Ingersoll attending. The averagedaily attendance was given as 217,
or 93 per cent. The attendance atthe Thamesford Continuation Schoolwas given as 19 boys and 27 girls, a
total of 46 and a percentage of 93.5.Pirncipal Herbert reported that hehad made a survey of the entrance
pupils in the district. They number
approximately 97, exclusive of thosein East Nissouri who will be attending the Thamesford Continuation
School.Figures were given by Mr. 'Herbert on the attendance at the in
dustrial arts and crafts and homeeconomics classes, which includedthe following: Total pupil hours of
Ingersoll Collegiate, 5,211; totalpupil hours Memorial School. 2,498;total puqil hours Mount Elgin Continuation School, 1.461; total pupil
horrS-Enst Nissouri, 984.He said the figures would convey
an idea,of the use that is being made
of the industrial arts and crafts andhome economics departments.Mr. Herbert presented a carefully
prepared map of the surrounding district which he believed would behelpful to the board in dealing with
the matter of transportation forpupils. Pins were placed in the mapwhich defined the district from which
it was to be expected that the pupils would attend the Collegiate.Each section fo the district was veryplainly designated. Another larger
map was also exhibited.Attention was directed to thecadet inspection on the Princess
Elizabeth school grounds underfloodlights. He said that owing tothe limited space in the Recreation
Centre. It had been deemed advisable
to make the change to the PrincessElizabeth School grounds.
It was mentioned that grantsamounting to $119 had been received for the Cadet Corps. Principal
Herbert congratulated the pupils of
the Thamesford Continuation Schoolon their splendid records. He alsomentioned that he would like to have
teachers of the I.C.I. visit Londonand other schools in the district, ifapproval were given by the board.
He believed such visits would proveof mutual advantage.He referred to the matter of“farm leave” from the I.C.I and said
students could be granted this privilege if their services were actuallyrequired on farms. He said the situ
ation was not as serious as in formeryears. He felt, however, that in mostcases students lose a certain amountof work if these is an interruptionin their attendance.Mr. Herbert drew attention to theinspector's recommendation that
painting be done in the shopwork de-parment He mentioned that the roofof the Collegiate Institute neededrepairing.

ered the suggestion that the buildingbe properly appraised. ChairmanGreen said he considered the sug

Next to J. M. Wilson's' Hardwarewhere we left off last week, comes
the home of the “Only NewspaperPrinted in Ingersoll,” the IngersollTribune, of which W. R. Veale has
been proprietor and editor for thepast 35 years. Approximately 50years ago, the paper was known as
' The Oxford Tribune and Canada> Dairy Reporter, with B. B. Baillie,- editor and proprietor. Mr. BaillieI was suceeded by E. L. Smith, the
■ present editor succeeeding him.Next to the Tribune Office, for1 many years was A. J. Dyer's groc-1 ery. Following the death of Mr.
Dyer, John Lenihan occupied the1 building for a few years, where hecarried his usual line of Prunella
shoes and sudulike.After Mr. Lenihan gave up, thestore entered upon what might becalled its modern career, for it was
in the early twenties that it becamea dress shown, owned by a Mr. F.Stone of Toronto, and operated by
H. Sheet er. The latter eventually acquired the business and is its presentproprietor.
Right next door to Dyer’s, wasHogarth’s grocery. Suceeding Mr.Hogarth was a (Mr. Melville. After
that it was operated by two women,
whose names seem to have beenforgotten, unfortunately. Then following World War I, the Dominion
Stores opened up there and continued for severol years, till it movedfarther up the street. It is now
known as Stirling’s Meat Market,
operated by John and James Stirling.Sally's Dress Shop, owned by MaxCohen, comes next. Fifty years ago,
that, and the building next to it,where the Dominion Store now is,was occupied by John E. Boles’
Dry Goods, Millinery and House
furnishing Store. Mr. Boles was succeeded by R. D. Ramsay and then byW. W. Wilford. When Mr. Milford
moved to his present location acrossthe street it ceased to be a drygood store.
On the south side of Mr. Boles’
store, L. Q. Menhennick had a grocery. Then in later years, W<1L Bigham had his first restaurant there. It
is now occupied by W. M. Church-ouse, tailor. E. J. Chisholm, optician, is next to that, in the store, occupied for many years, by John
Christopher, liquor merchant, whowas followed by Russell Uren, W. H.McCreery, a Mr. Black, Hubert Hutt,
and Harold McKinley, all jewellers.Barraclough’s shoe store was nextto Mr. Christopher's. There areprobably few, if any, who remember
Mr. Barraclough. But there will bemany who can recall his daughters,Misses Gertrude and Clara, who carried on the business for many years,
following the death of their father.Mr. Barraclough was said V* be anexpert on shoes, and one reason for
his success in the business was thathe was particularly skilled in fitting.Just by‘looking at a foot he could
tell the size of shoe required. His
customers were sure of havipg footcomfort. That Mr Barraclough’s reputation extended beyond his home
town was indicated by the followingincident: A lady on\a trip to France,while sitting in a Paris park, got into
conversation with a man who broke
the ice by remarking\that he recognized her shoes as being of American manufacture as he\was an Am
erican shoe manufacturer himself.The lady replied that she\was a Canadian, and the conversation turnedto shoes, the manufactured stating
that he had one very good customer
in Canada, a Mr. Barraclough Thenthe lady, who happened to be MissElla Stinjgpn of Ingersoll, informed
him that the shoes she was thenwearing had been purchased at Mr.Barraclough’s.The business is now owned by
Neill Ltd., Peterborough, with L.McDonald as manager,

DRUGGIST-
INGERSOLL
About 20 members of the Kiwanis
Club of Woodstack, were present onThursday evening for an inter-clubmeeting with the local club-. Themeeting was held in the St. Charles
Coffee Shoppe. The visitors werewelcomed by the Ingersoll president,F. H. Stone, who presided. The
meeting was opened with the singing of grace, a toast to the Kingand the singing of“Gove Save TheKing.” The pianist was Jack Mor
gan.J. C. Herbert, the principal of theIngersoll Collegiate Institute, intro
duced two guests, Mervin Robertsand Eric Wadsworth, students ingrade 12 commercial forms, who
will be graduating this year. Theattendance records were received by' George Mason.Following an announcement given
bv President Stone, several of themembers decided to attend a meeting of the Kiwanis Club of Londonon Friday. H. G. Small spoke about
the plans for the club's industrialshow, which is to be held in Victoria. Park in June. H. I. Stewart early in
the meeting announced that Vice-
President W. L. Thurtell’s team wasleading President Stone’s team by21 points in the sale of tickets.
Later, after he had received ticket| money from several members, hetold the meeting that 510 sales hadbeen made, the vice-president’s team
leading with 257, and the president’steam having 253 sales.President Stone informed the clubthat the members of the Woodstock
Club are selling 200 tickets, the an
nouncement being received with.applause.R. C. McMurdo stated that themeeting this week will be a C.P.R.
night, with Frank Collins of Montreal, chairman of the industrial development department of the C.P.R.,as the speaker.
President Stone turned the meeting over to Archie Heaslip, theWoodstock president, who said the
intcr-club meetings promote a betterspirit between the clubs. He calledupon John Cummer, the Woodstockclub's chairman of inter-club relations, to preside.
Songs were sung under the leadership of Mr. McMurdo. The treasury
of the local club was enriched whenW. Brown of Woodstock, assessedeach member of his club 10 cents
“so that Ingersoll will have a new
main highway." Bob Knox of Wood-stock, sang two solos.
S. Suske introduced the speaker,Stanley Smith, who is in charge ofthe publicity department of radiostation CKOX. Mr. Smith is a graduate of the School of Practical
Science of the University of Toronto, as a civil engineer. He spentsix years in the army, including five
years overseas. Mr. Smith who spokeabout radio, said he would not givetoo much of the technical side of. it, but a general picture of radio in
Canada. There are, he said, two distinct systems, a network controlledby the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, the $2.50 annual license fee
receiving sets going to its mainten
ance, and private broadcasters, suchas CKOX. The latter station pays anannua) license fee o $300 to the
C.B.C., Mr. Smith said.
The speaker told the Kiwaniansthat the independent stationsthroughout Canada are necessary,
the local station acting as a vital influence in welding together the community. Mr. Smith said 90.7 percent of the Canadian homes have at
least one radio. In Oxford County,there are 13,990 homes, of which13,240 have radios, which is 94.6
per cent. More people in North Am
erica, he stated, have radios thanbathtubs and toothbrushes.
Mr. Smith spoke about amplitudemodulation and frequency modula
tion, more commonly known as A.M.and F.M. broadcasting. The A.M.system has been in use for 20 years,and one of its main faults is the in
ability to receive sounds in the
home with the same fidelity as theyare given in the studio. "We* have
reached the point on the standard
band,” he said, "where it is supersaturated with stations. There are1,225 of them, and for these thereare only 100 channels on the radio
dial, which have to be shared.”F.M. broadcasting is quite recent,and there are now eight F.M. broadcasting stations in Canada. F.M.,
said Mr. Smith, will eliminate congestion, provid e greater fidelity of
Radio
reception, and eliminate static and
fading. It jyill give the same coverage day and night. Last year therewere 10,000 <F.M. receiving sets
made in Canada.Mr. Smith informed the Kiwaniansthat CKOX was granted permission
last year for F.M. broadcasting. He
expected that the equipment will beinstalled apd in operation within acouple of months. CKOX beganbroadcasting last fall, and it now hasa staff of 16 persons. SMr. Smith explained the call let
ters, stating that “C” is reserved forCanadian stations, the second letter,“K”, is one of several from whichCanadian stations may choose, and
the “OX” letters are a part of thename, "Oxford.”"CKOX” said the speaker, “has
endeavoured to give the best inprograms, and in sponsoring localtalent.” He offered the local KiwanisClub the use of the station’s weekly
service club program, on June 9th
or 16th, to make announcementsabout the industrial show.
Following his address, Mr. Smith
answered several questions. He saidthere will be converters on the market soon to adapt A.M. receivers forthe reception of F.M. programs.
S. L. Shelton thanked Mr. Smith,for his interesting address. PresidentStone thanked the Woodstock Clubfor the delightful program. Inthanking the local club faJits hospitality, the Woodstock JMSstat,Mr. Heaslip, suggested the hplding
of a joint inter-club ladies' night.The meeting was closed with thesinging of "0 Canada.”
