Ow • « CM. - M to *™. -U.SJL, »l.«0 Says Outlook for Ontario Poultrymen Besf in 25 Years J. B, Sftiith, 293 Thames St.South, attended the baby chickconvention and Turkey Federation meetings in St. Louis, Mo., fromJuly 13th to 16th. The meetingswere held in the Kiel Auditorium, and Mr. Smith, who is the super­visor of the feed department ofWilliam Stone Sons, Limited, toldThe Ingersoll Tribune that about15,000 were in attendance on Wed­nesday, July 14th. .Mr. Smith accompanied weinBros., of Exeter, (Lakeview Hatch­ ery.) to St. Louis, there being fourcarloads in the party, including Dr.J. S. Glover, who is in charge ofpoultry disease research at the On­tario Veterinary College, Guelph.Meetings in connection with thehuge convention, with representa­tives in attendance from many centres in Canada and the UnitedStates, were held in large halls ofthe auditorium, Mr. Smith said. The basement was completely filled,with exhibits of feed, incubators,equipment, vaccines, tonics, litterbrooders, state associations, breed­ers, dressed fowl, etc. There were more than 500 exhibits, and some ofthem were exceptionally good, tneIngersoll visitor reports. At one ofthe large feed manufacturersbooths a photographer worked fur­ iously taking individual shots ol as many visitors as possible.“The weather was just right ac­ cording to the local people,’ saidMr. Smith, “but we thought wewould die outside of our air-condi­ tioned hotel rooms and the KielAuditorium. We were told that the weather was usually hot in August.“Some of the party," added Mr.Smith, "found the air-conditioning excellent for comfort, but splendid also for catching colds.“One of the Canadians was out in the sun too long and left forhome early,” Mr. Smith said.“Enroute to St. Louis, we visitedseveral poultry plants, hatcheries,and turkey ranches. At Warsaw, Ind., we called at the Leghorn farmof Creighton Bros., where therewere 66,000 laying hens. They were housed in fair-sized buildings, whichwere scattered about. The incubatorroom, killing and freezing unit, egg room, and office were contained ina building the size of a small pack­ coming up. Recent rains have putthe corn and the soybean crops inthe above-average class. We sawthousands of acres of corn out in tassel.”Mr. Smith, in an interview with The Tribune, said: “It will takefrom 18 months to two years forthe U. S. poultrymen and farmers to get back into chickens. Our poul­try market in the United States is J. B. SMITH good for at least one and a half years. Lower grain prices in Chi­cago will mean that our prices willsag accordingly. “The broiler business is comingback in the United States, but theyare not able to buy enough chicksfrom the hatcheries. They wouldbuy Canadian baby chicks, but mostof the hatcheries are closed. “Eggs in the United States willbe 31 per dozen come fall. Wagesare $2.50 per hour for skilled labor,and $2 per hour for common orordinary labor. People are happy—they make it and spend it. To-mor­row never enters their mind, accord­ing to people connected with the United States’ and the state depart­ments of agriculture.” Concluding his .report of poultry conditions, Mr. Smith said: “Theing plant.“Down in Kentucky, we spenthalf a day with Mr. Lantz, who operates a turkey breeding farm inFlorida and a turkey growing ranchin Kentucky. He also uses his build­ings for broilers in. the off season.We saw 15,000 on range, 10,000 in the plant, and several thousands inbatteries or in the incubators. Hewas most anxious to buy 5,000 tur­key poults and chicks per week fromWein Bros.”Continuing, Mr. Smith told TheTribune that the Ontario visitorsgathered the following information from various sources: “Newcastledisease is not as serious a problemas we are led to believe. A new vaccine will establish immunity forlife, if done at four to five weeksof age. It has often broken out andcleared up with a loss of two percent., which is of only minor econ­omic importance. You can live withit and get by, or you can slaughterall the birds and start over again.“We saw few. if any, chickens onthe ordinary farm, and very fewdairy’ cattle. The farmers are grow­ing grain and getting to town earlyfor the show or the ball game. According to reliable reports fromState officials, milk dealers delivermilk to many Middle West dirtfarmers. High grain prices havecreated this type of farming.Grain prices are expected to dropwhen harvesting gets under way.There is a tremendous crop of grain outlook for the Ontario poultrymenhas not loked as good in 25 years. Next year will be a great poultryand turkey year for Ontario.” Among the entertainment fea­tures of the trip, there -was a cruiseon the Mississippi, the convention taking over the “River Boat”, aa million-dollar boat which wasbuilt in England. Powered byDiesel engines, it is used on theMississipppi for twice-daily cruises. It has four decks, two of which areair-conditioned. One deck forms alarge dance floor, where a top-name band played for the conventionparty. The top deck is for strollingand sightseeing. As the boat cruises along the river, a spotlightis turned ou the beautiful homes,with their landscaped grounds forthe enjoyment of the passengers.The trip down and back, he said,requires three hours. Mr. Smith saw the St. Louis Car­dinals play the Philadelphia Phillies,with “Dutch” Leonard as the^ win­ning pitcher. Brecheen, he' saidpitched well for St. Louis, except for a home-run ball which he threwto Ennis, who sent it into the stand.“There was the game!” he said. Of the prices of meals, Mr. Smithsaid that an ordinary 90-cent dinnerhere, with roast beef or roast ham, costs from $3.50 to $3.75 downthere. A meat sandwich costs 50cents with higher prices on mostfood products looked for.

Burnett, 220 Whiting Street, on Saturday afternoon, July24th, when thpir daughter, AnniePearl, became the bride of Douglas Clarence Winter, son of Mr. andMrs. George Winter of Woodstock.A profusion of summer flowers dec­orated the home for the ceremony,which took place at two o’clock,with Rev, C.

Visitors to Ontario during the period April 1, 1947, to March 31,1948, surpassed all previous rec­ords with more than one milliontourist automobiles entering from the United States. This exceeded by 100,000 the previous high mark of 1946. Eighteen million persons entered Ontario from the United States, in­ cluding persons travelling by alocalbus and on foot. Although many ofthese made visits of relatively short duration, their expenditures helpedmaterially to swell the flow ofbadly-needed foreign currency andwere an important factor in theeconomic life of many border com­munities. A preliminary estimate of thevalue of Ontario’s tourist industryin 1947 indicates that the province derived approximately 147 milliondollars from foreign visitors, anincrease of about 20 million over the preceding year. This figure doesnot include revenes from inter­provincial travel. All classes of foreign visitors toOntario showed an increase, withthe exception of rail travellers,which declined by 12.6 per cent.Admissions by boat increased by24.3 per cent, by bus 14.1 per cent, and by aeroplane 8.3 percent. The 1947 tourist picture showedone unfavourable feature. Our ownpeople have spent a tremendouslyincreased amount on travel outside Canada. Although this is not prim­arily a problem for .provincial gov­ernment, it is cause for some con­ cern since provincial policies intourist matters have reflected thecountry’s pressing need for foreignexchange in the post-war period.During 1947 Canadians travellingabroad (principally in the United States), expended 167 million dol­lars, leaving a net balance in ournational tourist account of about 75 million.These figures on Ontario’s touristtravel are taken from the Report of the Minister of Travel and Publicityfor the year ending March 31, 1948.

Coming about the middle of the summer season, it is one of the roost popular of holidays. Always on a Monday, it is looked forward to for enjoyable week-end trips by many families. The traffic will be heavy on the highways dur­ ing the coming week-end, for in addition to family week-end trips there will be many tourists on them also, as well as those who are going to vaca­ tion resorts to begin their annual holidays, or re­ turning from them. Motorists should drive carefully this week-end in order to prevent accidents and thus keep the holiday week-end a happy time for everybody. Cars should be checked over before they begin the trips, to make sure that thpy are in good mechan­ ical condition. The motorists should not only exer­ cise carefulness about their own vehicles, but they should drive at all times so that they can be pre­ pared if they meet a reckless driver. In short, they should have their cars under control all the time. Combined with careful driving should be cour­ tesy. It is a strange thing that so many of us for­ get the common courtesies which we extend about the home, where we work, and as pedestrians, when we take our place behind the steering wfleel of a car. If we practised more courtesy in our driving, we would do much to eliminate accidents and we would help to make driving much more pleasant for ourselves and al! the drivers we meet. Instead of waiting for the other driver to be courteous, we mighty set an example ourselves. We hope that the Civic Holiday week-end will be an enjoyable one for all of the Ingersoll and district people who will be travelling on the high­ ways. Despite all the traffic rules and the safety guides on the highways, an accident can happen in a second that may have fatal result?, or severe injuries, or one that may prove financially disas­ trous to the vehicle owners.

Ingersoll Has Cause To Be Proud Of Its Boys* and Girls* Sports Activities The citizens of Ingersoll have just cause to be proud of the recreational activities which are carried on within the community for the boys and girls. Few communities of the size of our town have so extensive a program. Throughout the summer, there are ball games, swimming lessons, camp outings, etc. Jointly, the Y.M.C.A. board and the Kiwanis Club conduct swimming classes in the pool in Memorial Park, and there are also supervised playground activities. The Y’s Men’s Club, the Lions Club, and factory organizations sponsor baseball for the boys. The service clubs and lod­ ges give support to the Boy Scouts and the Wolf Cubs, and these groups have their camp outings. Provision is made so that it is possible also for boys who do not belong to the Cubs to go to camp for a day at a time. The girls, including the Girl Guides, also enjoy camping trips. And for both boys and girls the Y’s Men's Club sponsors a band. For some time there has been a recreational 1 director in the town, known as the Y.M.C.A. secre­ tary.- He has given leadership to sports for the boys and. girls in the summer in the parks and in the gymnasium in the winter. Soon the boys and girls of Ingersoll and the > district will be swimming in one of the most mod­ ern swimmirn^pools in the province. And at this pool there will be an opportunity for the very email children to enjoy the water in the wadingpooh It is not surprising that Ingersoll and district Is so free from the problem of juvenile delin- ■ quency. Public-spirited men and women of the ' community, in donating large sums of money and their time, realize that boys and girls must be active, and they have provided in Ingersoll the kind of activities which start boys and girls along the road to good citizenship. Practically all the <jitizens of the community have a share in the program which continues throughout the year, from summertime swimming and baseball to skating, hockey and gymnasium sports in the winter, for by supporting the money-raising events they help to assure the continuance of the work ■o excellently carried on by the community organ­ izations. x And while we are proud of what is being done in our community for the boys and girls, weshould not allow eurselves to become complacent.We should give encouragement to the men andwomen who are doing the work, and show by our interest that we desire to have it continued and expanded.In working for the welfare of our boys an«T girls, we should realize that they are our commun­ ity’s most important asset. The Ingersoll of to­ morrow depends upon the kind of a beginning we give to the boys and girls of to-day. Local Committee Working To Provide More Houses For Ingersoll Ingersoll, like practically every community in Canada, is confronted with the housing problem. There are not enough houses for the people who make their living in Ingersoll and who want to establish their homes here. The housing shortage seriously affects the obtaining of new industries and the expanding of industries already located here. The mayor and the members of the town coun­ cil, together with the officials of the Chamber of Commerce, have been spending much time in seeking to find ways to secure more houses for Ingersoll. So far, their efforts have not warranted them much hopefulness for the alleviating of the shortage of houses. In view of the high cost of building materials and the present rates of pay in the construction industry, it is almost impossible to build houses so that they can be rented for monthly amounts which the average wage earner can pay. It would be folly to construct a number of houses in our town and expect to rent them to people beyond .their ability. A committee composed of the mayor and the president of the Chamber of Commerce is working on the local housing problem. These men have al­ ready spent a good deal of time in trying to find a way to overcome the housing Shortage. The work which they are doing for the community as- a whole is deserving of appreciation. We are con­ fident that if there is any method by which low- rental houses can be constructed here, they will discover it. And if they are so fortunate, we can be sure that many other communities will be at their doorsteps seeking similiar help to overcome their own housing shortages. We wish the local committee success as it con­ tinues its energetic work towards providing houses for Ingersoll which can be rented at moderate amounts. As it is a community problem, we sug­ gest that any citizen who can help the committee should do so. What Others Say : Miss Vesta Chambers is spending her holidays in St. Thomas. Hon. Thos.

We’d Better Keep Capitalism When fanners demand subsidies and price pro­tection, they are inviting communism, which al­ways begins by promising something for nothing—and ends by taking your freedom.When manufacturers charge all the traffic will bear they are attacking capitalism, the very ess­ence of which is a steadily rising standard of liv­ing based upon greater and greater vahies. For­ tunately, most manufacturers realize this, a"ndhave been struggling to keep values as high uscosts will permit.When workmen demand higher wages without out agreeing to higher production, they are deny­ing capitalism. The high standard of living whichonly capitalism creates is based upon paying a man in accordance to his worth. Greater wages with­out greater production bring high costs. Highcosts breed depression, and that's what the com­ munists count on, to soften up this country for them. Before we tell other peoples to resist com­munism, we’d better resist its siren lure of some­ thing for nothing ourselves. Capitalism has given you and everyone herethe standard of living that is the envy.of the world because Canadians and Americans were willing to work for what they got. They delivered value and then rightfully demanded they be paidfov it. We’d better get back to that system quickly—the only one in history that has workedsuccessfully for the betterment of all mankind.—Aylmer Express. Anti-Fly Campaign The Simcoe Board of Trade should have sup­port of all citizens in its campaign to exterminate flies,_ mosquitoes and other pests from our com­munity. Simcoe is being used as a test town inthis campaign which will feature the use of a DDT fog applied to residences and places ofbusiness. It will be a preliminary to a nation-widecampaign to rid communities of such pests, which is being sponsored by the Canadian Junior Cham­ber of Commerce. Simcoe should lend itself well to the experi­ment. Due to the low-lying nature of our com­ munity and the exceptional humidity that fre­quently prevails in * summer, we probably have more than our share of flies and mosquitoes. Cer­ tainly the common house fly and other types offlics become a real nuisance in the summer andearly fall months. There is no question that the fly is a carrier of disease, since it frequents placeswhere garbage and refuse have been depositedand it must carry many germs into the home andplaces of business. Direct contact with humanpersons must result in spread of disease. Manvpeople are of the opinion that infantile paralysis may result from the activities of flies. Healthexperts agree that flies carry the germs of typhoidfever and dysentery. The fly has become a menace to public health,as well as being a nuisance. The mosquito is onlvslightly less noxious. If they can be eliminated by the careful application of a DDT spray, it willbe a great boon to the entire community.—SimcoeReformer.

Speedtraps and general police persecution are again growing rankly. Particularly poisonous is the sub­urban municipality which seta out to speed-traptourists and city commuters. This is not defending excessive speed. It is acomplaint against the misuse of authority to im­pose what amounts to extra taxation by a very dubious method, which is susceptible to many de­moralizing abuses. ,>o«*ted and timed traffic lights do atar better job of controlling speed than the speedtrap system.—Delhi News-Record.

PROMOTION RESULTS INGERSOLL PUBLIC SCHOOLS Canadian Pacific Air Canadian Pacific Air Lines has been granted permission for regular passenger and cargo flights on the two trans-Pacific routes shown in the above map, adding a total of 14,420 route miles to Canada’s international air services. Now on order for the routes are pressurized four-engined Canadiar planes, with a capacity of 40 passengers and three tons'of cargo, mail or express. They will be manned by experienced trans-ocean C.P.A. pilots—Canadian. Pacific inaugurated wartime transatlantic bomber de­ livery flights in 1940 and many of its pilots later flew four years with the Ferry Command and have since returned to the company. Oper­ ational and servicing headquarters will be nt Vancouver with the C.P.A.*s domestic overhaul work, now being carried out there, being trans­ ferred to Edmonton.

Miller united in marriage Annie Edith Duke, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. D. Duke, John street, Ingersoll, to John George Totten, son of Mr. and Mrs. George W. Totten of West Zorra. Previous to her marriage the bride was on the staff of the Inger­ soll Cream Cheese Company. The introduction of smaller sized tractors has made possible greater mechanization of the smaller farms, and the development of equipment which can be mounted on the trac­ tor has made thq^Hrotor suitable for row-crop Lines To Fly Pacific icnced in trans-Pacific travel since 1886, al­ ready has an extensive traffic organization in the countries the new flights will serve, which places it in a position to start operations with a minimum of delay and with no wasteful expen­ diture of Canadian dollars abroad. Regular flights will probably start by next Summer; it is felt that an early start is essential if the Dominion’s position in the field of Oriental trade, as well as international air transport, is to be developed and maintained. From Van­ couver to Sydney, by way of Honolulu, Canton Island and Fiji is 7,865 miles, and the Great Circle route Vancouver-Kodiak-Shemya Island- Tokyo-Shanghai-Hong Kong is 6.555 miles. New Zealand will be served with a branch ser­ vice joining the through Vancouver-Sydney route at Fiji. 4 THE INGERSOLL^RIBUNE, THURSDAY, JULY 29,1948MEMBERS POURCEMENT FOR FLOORThe regular meeting of the In­gersoll Branch of the Canadian Le­gion of the British Empire ServiceLeague was dispensed with onTuesday evening last, when themembers gathered at their newhome on^Thames St North.

An up-to- date detailed map shows the condition of roads and byways and locates points of scenic and historical interest. yukea in single file don't take up much room on the road and don't impede traffic, say veteran wheelmen.Experienced cyclists do not ride abreast when there are cars on th' road because this is a nuisance tomotorists and dangerous for the riders. People who hang onto trucks and streetcars, they state firmly, are not real cyclists — they are just characters who are tired of living.

Cycle and Enjoy Better Health, Fuller Life Say Wheelmen People who ride bicycles for the love of it—in races and on tours— are still rare In Canada where cus­ tom so far seems to decree a family car as the only acceptable form of personal transport. But recent waves of immigrants from Britain and Europe have added reinforcements to the cycling fraternity. Organized cyclists say that their sport has definite values that peo­ ple often forget in the hurried ex­ istence of modern city life. Perhaps the man who thinks he must have a car to go some place or see some­ thing should take a second look at what his old "wheel" has to offer. If you want to see 100 miles or so of country over a week-end you don't need a shiny new car, accord­ ing to D M. Swift, secretary of the Canadian Wheelmen’s Association. "On a bike you need not be con­ fined to heavily travelled highways; you can go anywhere and stop any­ where. either to look at something, or just for lunch. You can escape the din of city traffic and thesmoke, and plot your course through out-of-the-way, untravel­ led lanes. The cos*, is negligible andtravelling with a group of compan­ions at 15 to 20 miles per hour givesan opportunity to see the country you pass through—an opportunitylost to the speeding motorists.** "If more people used bicycles fortheir Sunday afternoon jaunts therewould not be so many cars clutter­ing up the roads and causing traf­fic jams and accidents,” comments Mr. Swift "That is, if they cycledin a properly disciplined way whenon the public highway. And if youngpeople and school children organiz­ed cycling clubs they could trainthemselves in safe riding habits, anduse their weekends for tours of edu­ cational and recreational value. Pro­moting such clubs would do a lot todiscourage juvenile delinquency" Mr. Swift points out that a manriding a bike takes up less roadspace than a man driving a car."Even when a car is standing still It takes up quite a bit of space,"says this veteran wheelman. "And,in addition, it needs lots of spacefor starting and stopping. From the cyclist’s point of view, the driver Isthe big loser. He is crapped into acar, getting no exercise, no air, no sunshine—Just plenty of worry andexpense.” " MY WEEK " — by — R. J. Deachman The Ottawa Journal has a story this morning which is worth record­ing. Trygve Lie was giving a fare­ well party to Gromyko, Russian Representative. Present were HenryWallace. Gromyko and a represent­ ative from Canada. Somehow or other they started a discussion onthe best varieties of apples. Mr. Wallace asked the Canadian Repre­ sentative. what was the favoriteCanadian apple. After some th*ought he replied. “Mackintosh Reds andNorthern Spies,” What a shocking statement that must have been for Mr. Gromyko, yet the story statesthat he laughed heartily. I wonder if that is the first time he ever laughed? But that’s not the end of the story. Everybody knows why a Mac­ kintosh Red got its name, its coloris red and it was introduced by a man named Mackintosh. But howdid we come to have an apple called“Spy”? There is no other meaning to the word spy, except the onecommonly attached to it—but how could an apple be a spy. The subject is intriguing. Where is the expertwho can search through pomological history and give us any reasonable explanation of its strange cognomen—in plain English, why was this apple called “Spy"? R. B. Hanson, who was the Conservative leader in the House ofCommons from 1940 to 1943 died recently. There never was the slightest question about his politics. He was basically and essentially aConservative, a Inri fighter for the cause he represented. Once I wrotea story in which Mr. Hanson had apart. It was the discussion of a political issue. Not once in my life have I found it necessary to make apersonal attack upon any man be­ cause of his political views. I have, however, laughed in print at the ex­traordinary attitudes held by some Common Sense and Sportsmanship Secret of Safe.Mileage Record Says Canadian Distance Champion One lean, weather-beaten Cana­dian, C. Basil Raynham, of Weston,Ont., has pedalled 225,000 miles, theequivalent of nine times around theworld, without one accident duringthe past 18 years. Many motorists who have hadunhappy encounters with some ofthe less responsible members of thecycling fraternity will marvel thatanybody could live so long."It’s easy," smiles Mr. Raynham,"It’s just a case of obeying all the traffic laws that apply to motor­ists besides a few others that areaimed especially at cyclists.” For example, the law requiresthat cyclists obey traffic signalswhether they are riding or pushingtheir bikes. Mr. Raynham not onlycomplies with this regulation to theletter but adds, “When turning leftor crossing at a busy intersection,I always get off my bike and walk.This safety habit only takes a couple of moments but it may savea life-time.” TeeA-age cyclists are targets forcriticism by this veteran of the open road. The youths often en­danger their own Ilves and menaceothers by stunting and racing onbusy thoroughfares. And they Ignore many important things like handsignals and keeping well over tothe right side of the road. Courtesyand sportsmanship, Mr. Raynham . emphasizes, are the chief charac­teristics of the safe, civilized cyclist.I The highwav code exhorts cyclists to ride in single file. Mr. Rayn'- amstates that bicycle clubs when ontour adhere strictly ot this rule andadds, “A fellow who doesn’t und.-r- stand that the safety of the otherriders in the party depends oneveryone’s actions as individuals issimply too dangerous to have around. Road rules must be ad­hered to by everyone in a party forthe safety and pleasure of every­one." The only other Canadian to comenear Mr. Raynham’s cycling recordis one-armed, 63-year-old GusHogben of Hamilton, Ont. Mr. Hog-ben’s mileage totals 203.494 miles.They are the only Canadians toeam a cycling honor rating on the cycle mileage charts Issued in Eng­land.Among the tours made by Mr.Raynham are nine round trips toNorth Bay and Sault Ste. Marie. 13to Montreal, 14 to Ottawa, four toQuebec City and numerous tripssouth of the border to the states ofNew York, Virginia, North and South Carolina—all starting from Weston. This experienced touring cyclist,who Is living proof that safetyhabits pay off, points out that evenIf all rules were obeyed at all timesby an riders accidents would not beentirely eliminated. Motorists, and pedestrians arc not entirely blame­less, The motorist who opens his offdoor when parked at the curb canthrow the most careful cyclist. Thenotorlst who chances direction Be a Live Cyclist— Not a Dead Statistic! Figures compiled by the ac­ cident recording-division ofthe Ontario Department of Highways show that in the16 year period 1931-1946, there were 15,335 collisionsbetween motor vehicles and bicycles. These resulted in death to 595 and Injuries to14,722. Eight other cyclists were killed in this period inaccidents that did not involve motor vehicles; 354 were in­jured in similar accidents. Last year, 669 car-bicyclecollisions were responsible for the death of 31 and injuriesto 634 persons. suddenly without a signal can dthe same. The pedestrian steppingheedlessly onto a road can createas serious a hazard os the heedlesscyclist plunging from a driveway. "Safety.” comments Mr. Raynha: ,"Is a mutual proposition and motor- st, pedestrian and cyclist must all co-operate to reduce to a minim i accidents that threaten all three.” W A TC H - ■ ■ Z THURSDAY'^ LONDpW FREE PRESS FOR OUR F1JLL AD.

Once or twice I dealt with Mr. Hanson in this way and sent him copies of my stories. One dayI met him when I was on my way up to the House of Commons, he shook hands with me thanked mefor sending him the articles and said he enjoyed them immensely. “Iwish”, he said, “I could speak like you write. It was a happy article with a sense of humor and I find itextremely difficult to introduce hu­ mor into politics.” I valued that re­mark quite highly. How could we fail to be good friends after that?• • • He was a prominent lawyer, and at ordinary times well dressed andwell groomed, but he loved to tendhis garden and cut the grass, then his clothes fitted his job, they cov­ered him,, that was all. A rjtzy car stopped at the curb close to the lawn—“What do you get for mow­ing lawns?” asked the lady who was driving the car. "The lady who lives here lets me live with her that’s allI get out of it”• • •• There was a threat of a railwaystrike a few weeks ago. It was set­ tled as everybody expected it would be. No one has ever yet devised away of settling a strike upon any basis of reason provided the strengthof the union is such that it maystop the whole economic machinery of the nation. The only thing whichstands between the people of Can­ ada and starvation is the wisdom of those who control the most powerfulof all monopolies, the railway and the miners* unions. There is, how­ever, an economic law and if we let this economic law’ function it will prevent, in t<e long run, any groupno matter how powerful, from destroying the economic life of J.he country."Wages and salaries are a part of costs, as costs, increase, prices rise, the result is that the share going toeach group remains fairly constant over a long period of time. Real wages constitute a fixed proportionof total production. The only thing is to increase freight rates to a point which will enable the railwaysto meet the increased wage paymeit then in course of time prices rise throughout the whole nation, the cost of living is increased and what the workers gain in wages they losein the cost of living but it makes them happy and who wants to denythem their little joke. The joke willnot last, some day prices will fall, we will have a depression and prob­ably fifty or sixty thousand railway men will be unemployed—the joke will be on them. They, in the end.must pay. GIRLS’ and BOYS’ BANDGAVE OUTDOOR CONCERT The opening concert for the sea­ son of the Ingersoll Ys Men’s Girls’and Boys’ Band was held at Mem­ orial Park on Sunday evening. The splendid program was enjoyed bya large crowd from the town and district who showed genuine appre­ciation of the fine talent of thisgroup of young musicians. The program was varied and wellbalanced and included cornet solos numbers by Jimmie Miller, which were very well received. WORLD SEED SUPPLIES At the recent annual meeting ofthe Canadian Seed Growers* Asso­ciation* Mr. W. H. Youngman of the United States Department of Agri­culture gave an address on theworld seed situation. Grass seeds, he said, were^rtwabundant in the world, but Applies of fodder and root seed generally, were small and there would con­tinue to be an active demand forthese seeds fo$ several years to come. He saw no reason to thinkthere would not be good movements of seed between different countriesof Europe. Seed growers and seed merchants in Europe were efficient and experienced and most of themhad an international reputation. The demand from Europe for cer­eal seed would not equal that of a year ago, because European crops were quite abundant compared withthe shortages of a year ago arising from drought and adverse winter conditions. Polish Immigrants Have Made Good Permanent residence will now be granted by the Canadian Govern­ment to the mapority of the 4,50(\ Poilsh veteran immigrants who were brought to Canada in 194j6 and1947 for work in agriculture, the Minister of Labour announced re­ cently.When these veterans volunteered for Canadian farm jobs, they under­took to remain in. agriculture fortwo years, and the arrangement provided that they were to completethis two-year period before being allowed to apply for permanent residence, the Minister explained.So satisfactory has been the conduct of most of these immigrants, that the Canadian Government has de­cided to shorten this waiting period before they were allowed to take this first step towards their citizen­ship. All those who have co-operatde in the operaiton of the scheme andwho can satisfy the requirementsof the Immigration Act will now be granted "permanent landings”, touse the technical description. The granting of "permanent lan­ dings” will in no way relieve theveteran of his responsibility to his undertaking with respect to farm employment, it was emphasized.However, by obtaining "permanent landings”, they will acquire theright to apply for the immigrationof their close relatives.

Amateur andmarket gardeners alike are quick to adopt new varieties, that can besown earlier and harvested earlier, extending the cropping season; that will grow in regions where thegrowing season is too short for the older varieties; that have great­ er resistance to drought and dis­ease; that offer improved yield andquality; that are more suitable forcanning or freezing. The Division of Horticulture,Central Experimental Farm, Domin­ ion Department of Agriculture, hasoriginated and introduced about 40new varieties and strains of veget­ ables. Some of them—Dorinny corn,Delcrow cucumber, Ruby rhubarb,No. 11 Yellow Globe Danvers onions —already are accepted as stand­ard varieties. Of the new vegetables gaining popularity Pacer beans matureabout alweek before standard var­ ieties, but require u lot of sunshine. Strider beans are a little slowermaturing than Pacer, but are a better general purpose bean. They are stringless. Eden asparagus isearly, a good producer and excel­ lent for freezing. Alton peas are succeeding in On­tario’s canning area. They are high yielding and ready for cann­ing in 55 to 58 days. Smallton peashave high, quality, yield fairly well and are considered one of the bestfor freezing. Amateur gardeners have wel­ comed the Laxall pea. Although itis a smaller plant than the popular commercial varieties, it has a goodyield. It has high resistance to rootrot under field conditions and with­ stands drought remarkably well.

CHAPTER XISYNOPSIS:—John Saxon, privats ln-veatlcator. and hix partner Mo« ww«hlrod by J. T. Smith to suard Iran*.wMow of hli murdered brother. Irenewai sufferlnK from amneela and need-ed protection. Whll. Kay, daufht.r ofIrena, and John were on a boat tripthey were shot at but eacaprt InJujT-Irrne'a acreara was heart by John,who rushed Into her room to find IrenaIn a faint. He thought be saw aehid'w leaving the building. l**®r.bca nc a commotion in the yard hew-t i>wn and fMind Moe bolding theGreat Dane. Moe explained that thedog had heard a nolle and startedafter It but found nothing wrong. The way the fellow looked at him. Johnny decided that he, himself,was classed among the nonessentials. Too, Steve was probably figuring his own salary in comparison withJohnny's. Or perhaps he just didn’t like private investigators. Regardless of the man's confidencethat no strangers were on the es­ tate, Johnny felt a certain amount of nervous tension within himself.He had seen a figure moving on thebalcony a while ago . . . He said, “You'll be near the house an night?" “Yes, I’m on duty all night." He gave Johnny a curious half smile.“Why, is something worrying-you?” "I don't like to have strangers taking pot shots at me. Besides I'd like to get a little sleep." "You know," said the husky guard, “I been thinking about you and MissKay almost gettin' shot out on the harbor tonight. I’ll bet it was some kid hunting in the woods. Alter ducks, maybe." Johnny said, “Then he should learn to be a better sportsman. He is supposed to pick me off on thewing.” He didn’t remind the fellow that duck hunters seldom use si­ lenced rifles. Returning in the direction of the house, Johnny decided to use themain entrance. He wanted to see Moe Martin a moment — alone, if possible—before joining the others. As he entered the main front hall, he beard the faint tinkle of glasses from the direction of the butler'spantry. The door leading back therefrom the wide center hall was open. Johnny cut toward the library. Borne of the lights had been turned off in the huge room. It was dimand quiet, the air still heavy with lingering heat. No one was in theroom. But from beyond the screened doors across the wide room he beard a soft murmur of voices. Johnny’ssteps were soundless on the deep- piled carpeting as he strolled to­ward one of the doors, standing there in the shadows, feeling a slight breath of air coming through the screen, he heard Nick Walker. Theusual heartiness was missing from the big fellow's voice. Now it was low and serious, and — Johnnyftiought—a little bit thick. "Listen. Nancy," Walker was say- log. "you're still carrying the torchfar that guy. Don't tell me I I've known it for years. Again, I’m ask­ing you—" "Nick . . . pleasel" It was. Nancy England speaking.It occurred to Johnny that the wo­ man was shaken and upset about something. He could almost feel thetremor in her voice. "I’ve listened long enough!" NickWalker cut in. "And waited, tool Look, why does It always have to Johnny kept standing, deep in theshadows, while he watched the two figure, of Nick Walker and Nancy England on the terrace. He could teUthat they were both pretty angry. "Nick Walker, you don't know what you're saying 1 You're Impos­sible!" The two figures stood there In the darkness, their eyes straining ateach other, their bodies taut with emotion and tension. "I’m not impossible. I’m tellingyou what's been tied up Inside of me for months and months. I could teU you a whole lot of other things .. “Nick, I refuse to listen to you any longer. Good night I" “Now look, Nancy . , ..*» -"I said, good nlghtl" - '. "Aw, Nan . . The heavily built man swayed alittle as the woman again angrily pushed away from him. This time, he didn’t try to take her in his arms.He stood there quietly looking at her against the background of the night. He said in a voice that hadabruptly changed somewhat, that was more calm: “All right, maybe I am talking toomuch. But I know what Im saying, impression that she was exertlni a terrific control of emotions that, ■ moment ago, bad been st feverpitch. ffben, for an Instant, she did look at him directly. “What was wrong upstairs a while ago? Nick said youwere looking through the hallways." Johnny shrugged and made anoffhand gesture. “It was nothing, really. Irene—your sister—became a little upset over something. But Kay stayed with her and it was all right."He became absorbed lighting a cig­ arette, added casually, “I would have called you instead of Kay, but youweren't down here.” There was no hesitation as she explained, "I took a stroll down theroad. Nick met me when I came back. He told me." Her gaze touched his again, moved on. The peculiarway in which she never let her face show her thoughts was disturbing. "There was something really wrong?" “No ... nothing," Johnny lied. Her explanation aroused his curi­ osity. Either she or Nick Walker was lying. Walker had said she wuwaiting on the terrace while he fixed The station waton disappeared along the estate road,siuhlng white streaks through the darkness. The mans words became muffled. Johnny stepped closer to the door in order to hear whet wu said. Indoing so, he saw the outline of the two figures standing near the edge The big^portsman faced Nancy England, his arms around her. From the waist upward her body archedbackward and away from him. Her hands were pressed against his one side. "Nick .. . don't I” she was saying. Bhe sounded miserable. ■‘Nancy,” the man said angrily, "I thought after it was all over, you'd Changel Doni think I didn’t haveeverything figured out. But I was willing to wait That's the way I felt... about things ... about youI knew that some day, somehow, thlriKS would be different. Hewouldn't be around." "Nick I” Nancy’s voice was horror- ■trlck.cn. "You speak as though you’dalmost wish it would happen I" "AU right, dammit!" Walker's ... lota of times!" Johnny Saxon beard the woman’s ■harp gup. “Nick Walker, you don’t honey, aont forget that. He gaveyou a sweet run-around, and per­ haps you had a few Ideas, toolThink It overt Good nlghtl" With that, Nick Walker turned away and stalked off the terrace,moving In the direction of the cir­ cular driveway. Johnny hesitated a moment long­er, ready to step quickly back into the library if Nancy England started his way. He wu Intensely absorbed in what had just happened. Nowhe wondered it the woman would run after Nick Walker or breakdown into tears. Bhe did neither. Instead, she stood there rigid and silent and watching the man’s figure disappeartoward his station wagon. She wu still standing like that, motionless, when the car started up. Johnnyheard gravel spatter like buckshot beneath the fenders u Nick Walker impatiently fed gu to the motor.The station wagon disappeared along the estate road, headlights siuhlng white streaks through thedarkness. Moving quickly, Johnny steppedacross the room, then appeared tobe entering the library ns Nancy came in from the terrace. “Well," he called out cheerfully, “there you are. But where's Walk­ er and Moe? I wu to have a drinkwith them." "Nick said to tell you good night,"she said. “He had to leave. Yourpartner is fixing a drink." Johnny decided that her controlwas nothing less than amazing. Ob­viously she had been headed toward the center hall. Bhe would have come face to face with him tn thedirect light from the one bridge lamp turned on In the room. Yet, without a break In her step she selected a chair and sat down.Her movement wu casual. Bhe had wisely chosen a part of the roomthat left her face In shadows. "I hadn't realized it wu getting so late," said Johnny. He tried topick a chair that directly faced her. “It's almost midnight.** “And quiet. Is it always thisquiet? I've never lived in the ooun- try." “Bometlmes the stiUneu almostdrirtte you mad. That is why i spend most of my time in the city. U it weren't tor my sister, I wouldnot be out here now.". She bad a way of talking withoutlooking at him directly. He had tbs a arms. That left both or tnem tem­ porarily alone and with no othermembers of the household. This fact, combined with the unusual conversation Johnny had just over­heard, set up a new trend of thoughtin his mind. Ho was covertly watching herhands twist a small lace handker­ chief. It expressed the tenseness that wu within her. He wished there was some way he could learn more aboutthe strained situation between her and Nick Walker. And he wished her face, startling white in the vague light of the big room, weren’tso much like a set mask. It hauntedhim. And suddenly, a feeling of dreadshot through him. This weird, over­ stuffed house and the people in it— with an ugly murder tn the back­ground—wasn't a nice thing to be around. There were so many burled facts he had to find out—so manyuncertalntlM he had to clear up.What would finally awaken Irene's sleeping mind? Why did she thinkJohnny wu Bart? There wu a lot Nancy could teU him. Bhe wu perhaps the strang-est of the bunch. Johnny thought he bad neverbeen mixed up with so many darkcurrents in bls life. Mentally, Johnny hitched up blsbelt and soberly regarded the strange Nancy England. I He said abruptly, “Do you mind if I call you Nancy?" He saw her hands stop worryingthe lace handkerchief. •'Wny ... no, of course not." “It seems much more sociable." “Yes, it does." "After all. Ill he staying here awhile." Ha decided it wu exactly the mg to learn. She smiled a Uttle now. That Is, half of her face smiled. Theaffected part of her features did not. Obviously aware of this, of theweird expression it gave her, shewent around with that dead-pan look. And, he thought, with some­ thing that had died a little inside side Park, Woodstock, at a smallfamily gathering in honour of Mr.Frank Smith’s birthday.■Mr. Floyd Little visited friendsin Springford and Otterville onSunday.Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Dale of Ing­ersoll, visited on Sunday with Mr.and Mrs. Naboth Daniel.- Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Axford andMargaret visited on Sunday withMr. and Mrs. George Bycroft andEvelyn of Cold Stream.

It was decided to hold the nextannual reunion in (Memorial Park. Born in London, he was thefourth son of Sir Robert Walpole,afterwards created Earl of Oxford. His life throughout was easy, andin 1727 he went to Eton, where, hesaid, “1 was a blockhead, and push­ed up above my parts.” . . . The“Grand Tour," which was made byJohn Evelyn early in the 17th cen­tury and by Lord Burlington earlyin the 18th, had become, a recogniz­ ed part of an English gentleman'seducation when it came to Wal­pole’s turn. It was one of the fac­ tors that made for civilization inthe 18th century.............Horace Walpole himself had al­ ways looked forward to making theGrand Tour. Even when he was atEton, his reading of Virgil stirredhis imagination so much that hefound himself “transported fromArcadia to the gardens of Italy”;and in 1737 he wrote to his friendMontagu expressed regret that he could not accompany him and LordConway abroad. . . .His chance came in March, 1739, when he set out for France andItaly with his bosom friend, Thom­as Gray. They went first to Paris, and then to Rheims, where theyspent three months learningFrench. They continued their jour­ ney over the Alps (“such uncouthrocks”) to Florence, where theyarrived at Christmas. ... In Paris, he and Gray seem to have takentheir sightseeing seriously, but inFlorence where he stayed 15 months, there is little evidence ofit. . . . But in another letter he ex­plains that he tries to avoid fatigu­ ing his friends with long accountsof places and sights alread suffic­iently described in travel books. He does, however, give accounts ofthings which seemed to him un­hackneyed and unusual.From Florence the tourists madea flying visit to Rome and Naples. During thrir brief stay at Naplesthey explored the buried city ofHerculaneum, which had been dis­ covered by chance some 18 monthspreviously. In a fery interestingletter describing this novelty, as it then was, Horace evinces rathermore of the eager curiosity charac­teristic of earlier travellers thanwas his wont in later life. He saysof the objects that had recently been unearthed that they were keptin the "King’s apartments . . . and'tis difficult to see them—but we shall.” He also makes the follow­ing observations, very acyte for ayoung man of only 23."There might certainly be collectedgreat light from this reservoir ofantiquities, if a man of learning had the inspection of it; if he di­rected the working, and wouldmake a journal of the discoveries. . . . Besides scrutinizing this verycarefully. I should be inclined tosearch for the remains of the othertowns that were partners with thisin the general run.' 'Tis certainlyan advantage to the learned world,that this has been laid up so long.Most of the discoveries in Rome were made in a barbarous age,where they only ransacked theruins in quest of treasure, and hud no regard to the form anil being ofthe building; or to any\ circum­stances that might give light into its use and history.” \Apart from sightseeing, heseems to have done some djollect- ing: “I am far gone in medals,lamps, idols, prints, &c., and allthe small commodities to the pur­ chase of which I can attain.” Re­turning to England in the autumnof 1741, Walpole spent his time al­ ternately at his father’s houses inArlington Street and at Houghtonin Norfolk.—From “Men of Taste," by Martin S.

In good weather, spraying every two weeksis sufficient. The name of the ma­terial is nicotine sulphate and itmay be bought at any seed or drugstore.

The rign* are vested, maintained and1 repaired by the operation of ZO sign shops throughout the province. Moat of the caution type signs are treated with material that reflect* thecar headlight* and make* the signs clearly discernible at night. Posts that‘ mark the edge of road at dangerona turn* or ditches are also reflectorixed. White line* that warn the motorist when he must stay in hl* own lineof traffic and when he may safely pass are used extensively on Ontario's highways at curves and hills. The rule is: never cross over a solid lineunless a broken line runs parallel to it on your side of the road—and then only if oncoming traffic Is far enough away. Broken lines alonemay be crossed if oncoming traffic warrants such a move. SIGNS HELP KEEP HOLIDAY TRAFFIC MOVING SAFELY ON ONTARIO ROADS Down corough the ages signs haveplayed a vital role in guiding and protecting mrm on his journey*.Signs in the heavens charted hisships* courses. Signs chipped in trees marked his crude trails. Signshewn In rock told the story of his travels.Signs have Increased In impor­ tance with the growth of civiliza­tion. Today, one of their Impor­tant uses is to help make motor Vehicle travel safe and simple. Offi­cials of the Department of High­ ways of Ontario estimate that thereare over 300.000 signs in constant use throughout the vast network ofhighways In the province. Twentysign shops, established in strategic centres, keep them at peak effi­ciency. with repairs and replace­ments effected wherever and when­ever necessary.All highway signs, even those not strictly of a cautionary type, contribute to safe driving by per­mitting the motorist to give fullattention to his driving Instead of worrying whether or not he Is onthe right road and going the right direction. Visiting motorists In par­ticular appreciate the distinct mark­ ings of this province's highwaysthat enable them to travel to theirdestination without confusion and loss of time. To Illustrate, let's follow theroute of Mr. and Mrs. John Aver­age. American tourists along one of Ontario's main highways. Highwaynumber signs, in the form ofshields surmounted by the King’s crown, posted at frequent Intervalsalong the way, reassure the travel­ lers that they are on the right road.At intersections, these signs display an arrow or arrows that clearly Hand signals are safety m niurn and matters of common courtesy thatshould not be neglected by the motorist. Above, left to right, are comet signals for: left-hand turn; stopping; right-hand turn. designate direction. As they cometo a cross road in the vicinity of a community, they notice a group of“Anger board" signs, each bearing the name of a city, town or villageand the distance to each, with a "finger" pointing the proper route. Mr. Average is pleased that he can proceed at a reasonable speedwithout undue worry about suddenturns or twists in the road; for all of these are indicated within a safedistance by curved arrows that show approximately the degree of twistor tum. His speed is governed by highway signs that give the legalmaximum speed. He is protected atIntersections by large stop signs and (or) signal lights, and at railwaycrossings by warning signs 500 feet from the railway. His driving conduct on black highways Is governed by White linespainted on the road. These tell himclearly when he can safely pass the car ahead. He may not cross asolid white line but he may crossa broken white line where the break occurs on his side of the road andif the way 13 clear. Mr. Average finds that his nightdriving is greatly facilitated be­ cause most of the caution signs arelit up by his headlights. A specialreflecting material used by the Department of Highways makes thesigns clearly visible after dark. Posts that mark the edge of theroad at a dangerous turn or ditch are also reffectorized. Ontario’s highway signs are not alien to Mr. Average. They aremuch the same in design andcolour to those he is accustomed ‘o OBEY THE RULE OF WHITE LINES “When visibility is reduced toabout 25 ear lengths, a solid whiteline 13 painted in the centre of the road. This white line must not becrossed,” says the Hon. George H.Doucett, Ontario Minister of High­ ways. "Properly observed, the whiteline provides protection for drivers, travelling in either direction oncurves and hills." Broken white lines indicate thelanes of the highway, varying in number with the capacity of theroadway to carry single or multipletraffic streams. When there is no oncoming traffic to interfere, cammay pas* normally. On more heavily travelled high­ways, double centre lines are paint­ed. A driver's behaviour is govern­ ed by the line on the near side. Thatis, when a broken and a solid line are together as on hills or carves,a motorist may pass another carwhere the broken line 13 on his own side of the road—provided the high­way ahead is clear of oncoming traffic for a safe distance. If, how­ever, the solid or barrier line is onhis side, the driver must remain onhis side of tills solid line. at home. Mr. Average finds on the ■whole that motoring in Ontario is \as pleasant and safe as engineering \ skill can make it. He knows that Xa great deal of experimental workis done before a sign is posted. Andhe appreciates the time, effort and money that Is contributed towardshis motoring pleasures. "Signs and signals are great aidsto safe driving,” says Hon. George H. Doucett, Minister of Highways."They warn motorists of hazardsahead but they are of little use un­ less seen and obeyed.” HARRIETSVILLEThe Mission Band meeting washeld on Tuesday evening of lastweek at the home of Mrs. Alf.

Richard Dimbleby recently sethimself the ambitious task of map­ping out his own travel guide toBritain, and bearing in mind theoverseas visitor who might expect to find a depressed community withnothing to offer but a stroh round battlefields, he broadcast his itiner­ary in the BBC’s North Americanseries "Off the Record.”“The surprise would be to findmusic and the other arts boomingas they have never boomed before,”he said, “the villages lying as un­touched and unchanged as they have been for centuries, the main high­ways smooth and well repaired, thehotels intent on doing their very best for visitors, and a programmeof national and international eventsthat has never been excelled.”But Dingleby’s imaginary tourwas to the small out-of-the-wayplaces, the real Britain. His start­ing point, he said, was St. George’sChapel, Windsor Castle, “which I believe to be the most beautifulbuilding in the land;. There stand­ing the nave under the pillars so tall and white and slender that theymake you feel tiny, we’d see thetombs of our kings and queens, and up in the choirof the 600-yca Knight of thesor we’d nwvawest to an o bury where lu .see womenloom, itself 1 weaving cibeauty andenshire to _______ __ Father's port which in a few bitterdays less than seven years ago wassmashed with fire, _..2 I ___12 bring out the City Engineer toshow the rebuilding plans whichare going to create a new and finer city in the ruins of the old. As.housing is one of our great domes­tic problems I should take you toLaunceston, a small town in Corn­wall where a complete new estateis being built—Cornish Unit Houses, the best looking of all the prefab­ricated dwellings and constructedentirely of waste matter from the china clay pits that was once left torot in huge heaps on the skyline.”Dimbleby would visit the Scilly Isles to meet a young farmer inHoly Vale on island of St. Marys,who had a plan to convert all the dairy cattle of the inlands into anew and first cjgta tuberculin testedScilly breed .fo be sent overseas. And from this westernmost point ofEngland to Douglas in the Isie ofMan with a radar controlled harbourso perfected that it is the only har­ bour in the world that could not beshut by fog. Then Barrow in Fur­ness, its great shipbuilding yards fully recovered from the slump ofthe ’thirties where he would intro­duce an old riveter John Sidawaywho had helped to build 130 Britishships. At this stage Dimbleby wouldcall a momentary halt in the 25,000mountainous acres of the National Trust lands in the Lake Districtwhere you would meet the only pro­fessional mountain guide in Eng­ land, the volunteer mountain ser­vice, the great-great-grandson ofthe poet William Wordsworth who lived, died and was buried in thevillage churchyard of Grasmere andLake Windermere, where the Gov­ ernment is now pulling down thefactory which built flying boatsduring the war. ‘And turning southagain”, said Dimbleby, “I wouldshow you the new Cathedral ofCoventry rising above the worstbattered of all provincial cities, and the mighty Cathedral that is grow­ing above the great city of Liver­pool, second oply to St. Peter’s in the whole world. Then we wouldcross England to an ordinary privatehouse on the south eastern edge of London to a large room shutteredand silent, and left just as it whs8 years ago when it was the con­ trol room from which our pursuitplans were directed in the Battle ofBritain—the room in which Alliedvictory was ensured when our wholeexistence seemed to hang in the balance.” SUMMER I NEEDS Damaak Tab!
