PASSED AWAY MONDAY IN HIS 84th YEAR Frederick William Cope, 163Charles St. East, passed away onMonday in Alexandra Hospital, inhis 84th year. He had been in fail­ing health since January, and ser­iously ill for four weeks.Mr. Cope was born in Pyris. Ont.For n number of years he was anengineer in Northern Ontario. Hehad been living retired in Ingersollfor the past 10 years. He was amember of Trinity United Church.A nephew, Charles Waterhouse,•nd a niece, Miss Viola Cope, bothlive in Ingersoll.

Inter­ment was in the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery. town progress and to have our com­munity a happier and better placein which to live.“Wo all recognize that swimmingis a splendid exercise and a form ofrecreation for both young and old,"Mr. Stone said. “Through the fa­cilities provided and the course ofinstructions for beginners, the chil­dren of our town will have the op­portunity of acquiring the necessaryknowledge of how to be at home inthe water, and in this way avoidhazards to which the inexperiencedare subjected, and yet at the sametime enjoy the pleasure of swim­ming and bathing whenever andwherever they have the opportunityof indulging in this healthy andwholesome recreation."I believe there is a further fea­ture of the importance to’ our com­munity in having the facilities of these pools made available. Weknow that children and young people are full of energy and the desireto do things. We know, too, that if the right outlets are not availablefor these desires, it is not difficult tofind the wrong outlets.“Is it not, therefore, a grandthing.” continued tMr. Stone, “thatour young people are being providedwith a place where they can givevent to their energies in a clean,healthy, body-building recreation ofswimming and bathing. To me. itis a form of practical Christianityat its best. “1 realize I have stressed whatthese new pools mean to childrenand young people, as after all thereis nothing finer or more satisfyingthan bringing joy to our children.However. I would be remiss if I didnot point out that the facilities ofthe pools are available for all ages,and all are welcome. They are forthe entire community to participatein and enjoy. Of E. A. Wilson and familv. “whoare responsible for the building ofthe swimming pools.” Mr. Stonesaid that Mr. Wilson, in his youngerdays, took part in many forms ofsport and since has been a lover anda supporter of all types of good,clean sport. “Somewhere around 1928 or1930,” said Mr. Stone, “he revived the Y.M.C.A,, and that organizationhas been actively supported by himto date. Prior to the war, this gen­tleman started dreaming of building a swimming pool. No doubt the wardelayed the actual construction, butthe last couple of years those of usclose to him did know that he wasvisiting various swimming pools inthe United States and Ontario, se­curing data to complete and equipa modern swimming pool.“As a result, we have in Ingersolla most modern swimming pool, fullyequipped with the latest devices forsafety and a credit to our commun­ity.“The late Mrs. Wilson, whom weloved for her thoughtfulness andkindness,” said Mr. Stone, “wasequally a partner and as enthusias­tic regarding the building and plan­ning of this swimming pool. WhenMr. Wilson would visit her in hos­pital in Toronto, where she under­went an operation and was recup­erating from it. Mrs. Wilson neverfailed upon each visit of asking how the swimming pool was comingalong, and if the water was in it.“The very great tragedy is thatshe was not permitted to witness the(Continued on page 3) Camp Improvements Valued at $75,000 During the 10-day camp of the Free Methodist Church of WesternOntario at Thamesford, 150 fami­lies lived in cottages and manyothers attended the programs eachday.

English Girl Guides Thank Local Company A short time ago the members ofthe First Ingersoll Girl Guide Com­pany sent a parcel of new and usedclothing to the Second St. Mary-Cray Girl Guide Company in Kent. England. The captain of the localcompany, Mrs. J. E. Cunningham, has received letters of appreciationfor it. also a picture of the parcel’srecipients.In the picture, the English Guid­ers. in uniform, and with theirleaders and several of the mothers,are shown standing behind a tableon which the articles in the parcelare displayed. Several of them areseen holding articles of the chil­dren’s wearing apparel, also a wool­len afghan.In a letter of thanks for the par­cel, the leader of the company. EthelR. Clark, of St. Mary Cray. Kent, who signs her Guide name. “Tanoa.”the Indian word for silver birch,says. “Thank you so very much forthe lovely box of clothes you sentover for the children here. Thedresses were awfully pretty, and Iwished I was a bit smaller so Icould have one of them. I asked the Second St. Mary Gray Guidesto distribute the clothes, so they in­vited some of their mothers andaunties to one of their meetings, and every garment soon found anowner. A kind gentleman came along at my request and took aphotograph of the Guides, showingthe garments, and the mothers. Iam sending this to you and hope youwill like it.“The same kind gentleman (whois a member of the Orpington His­toric and Record Society, to which I belong) made a number of copiesof the photograph to be sold by the Guides, the proceeds to go into theircompany funds, so you see your good turn has had a double result.“The mothers were all delighted with the clothes, and one of themhas written a letter to you. whichI am enclosing. I hope you will bepleased with the result of your goodturn for English children and thatyou will go ahead and find lota moreexciting and useful things to do.Good Guiding and good camping toyou all. May you all enjoy it as longor longer than I have (31 years)."The mother, Mrs. E, Smith, ofOrpington. Kent, whose letter wasenclosed, wrote: “I would just liketo say how kind of you to sendclothing for distribution. I am vervpleased to say I was one of manvmother* that received some of theuseful clothing, for which I am vervgrateful I have four children,three girls and one boy. Two of the.girls are in the Girl Guides, theother one being too young at pres­ent to join, as she is only six years.' I will say once again, thank you wrymuch.” \The Ingersoll Guides.

It attracts visitorsfrom many parts of the United States, and its exhibits come from almost every country in the wbrld.-— The C.N.E. presents agricultural, industrial, manufacturing, food, home craft, art, and many other exhibits. It also presents entertainment on a lavish scale. It brings outstanding bands for the enjoyment of its visitors, as well as other groups of musicians.

By Showing Interest In Our Fall Fair We Can Help To Make It A Greater One Preparations are being made by the officers of the Ingersoll, North and West Oxford Agricultural Society for its annual fall fair. Both the men’s and the women’s groups of the society are holding meetings to plan it. The prize list is being revised, with the members of the groups checking the num­ erous sections carefully to see that it presents many opportunities for the showing of exhibits, and that its prize money in each event is compar­ able to other fairs and within the budget of the society. With the fall fair to be held on October 8th and Sth, it is time for the residents of Ingersoll and the surrounding district to be thinking about the ex­ hibits whidi they will show at the fair. The suc­ cess of the fair will not depend alone upon the .work of the society’s members, but rather upon the extent of the support it receives from all the resi­ dents of the Ingersoll trading area. Most of us will agree that we would not like to be without an annual fall fair. Perhaps some think that Ingersoll should have a larger fair. We can best continue the fall fairs and help to make them larger by showing that we are interested in them. The fall fair helps to promote better agricultur­ al methods. In the competing for prizes, the farm­ ers are encouraged to grow better products of the soil and to breed better livestock. The fall fair servos the Ingersoll trading centre, and there are few events during a year in Ingersoll that attract as many people of the surrounding district to it as the fair does. The business people? in realizing the value of the fair to the trading centre, can do much to help in making it a success by working with the society’s members and by having displays at it. By beginning to get ready for the fair now, with the making of plans to show exhibits at it and by assisting in any way possible with its preparation, the residents of the Ingersoll .trading area can help to make the 1948 fair one of the most successful ones ever held in Ingersoll. More News Items About Lower Prices Would Help Defeat Inflation It seems that almost every day there are headlines in the press about the mounting prices of commodities used in the home, particularly food, and also of impending shortages. These are alarming to the housewife, whose chief task each day is the providing of three meals for her family. The housewife has to stretch her purse to feed her family and give variety to the table. She has to balance the family income, more stationary than the fluctuating prices, with the mounting costs of things which the home requires for daily living. The announcements of rising prices and short­ ages are followed immediately by a buying spree, when extra supplies go into lockers and when profiteers anticipate huge gains by storing great quantities of food against the day when the sup­ ply will be short and the prices high. It was reas­ suring recently, during all the .commotion about butter, to have Hon. J. G. Gardener an­ nounce that a butter shortage will not be felt befort next February. That takes us over the Christmas feasting season, and possibly some way will be found to provide additional supplies, or substitutes, by the time Candlemas Day rolls around. And there was a heartening news item for the housewives .in The London Free Press on Friday morning, which reported a further drop in the prices of fresh vegetables and fruits on the Lon­ don market, also that meat prices remained sta­ tionary, failing to show a steady increase expect­ ed by dealers. Perhaps if more items like these were featured in the press a downward trend in prices generally would result. If the housewives, who want prices within range of their spending ability, were as well or­ ganized as the groups who are interested in the higher prices for their individual products, a great levelling influence would be exerted against inflation. And the day when the housewives are organized may be not too far off, as alread small groups are expressing opinions. We need more items about the lowering prices, which are the best weapon against the vicious circle of rising prices and the inevitable inflation. We need more careful appraisal of’ announce­ ments concerning shortages and of so-called “facts” about commodities. Our greatest need is for good, solid thinking so that we are not led willy-nilly by the nose. 48 YEARS AGO Thursday, August 30, 1900 PERSONALS Mr. and Mrs. T. W.

All Of Us Should Take Precautions To Prevent Losses Through Thefts In view of the recent thefts from three local stores, the business people and the citizens gener­ ally would do well tto take some precautions to safeguard their possessions. The thefts which oc­ curred in the stores appear to have been the work of thieves who are possessed of unusual daring. It is a different type of thief who-steals from a store in daylight, during working hours, from the kind that breaks in and goes off with loot in the night. The fact that there are people of this kind car­ rying on such brazen activities should serve also as a warning to car owners. Too many owners of cars leave them unlocked when they have articles of value in them. And, despite all the warnings that have been given by the police, there are still car owners who park them and leave their keys in them. No matter how large a police force we might have, it would be unable to cope with the type thieves who visited Ingersoll recently. Ultimately, we believe, they will be caught, but in the mean­ time they may make many hauls in numerous com­ munities. The police force needs the assistance of the citi­ zens in the prevention of thefts and the apprehend­ ing of thieves. It-4«o needs the co-operation of the citizens in all of its activities. The police officers are servants of the citizens, endeavoring to en­ force the laws which their parliamentary represent­atives enact. An appeal has been made U the citizens to noti­ fy the police of anyone having been seen with the missing articles from the local stores. Any citizen who can give helpful information to the police will ' be rendering a use£il service. The citizens can help also by making it more . difficult for such thieving to occur in the community. We should be mindful of the fact that when articles are stol­ en, even though the thieves are later arrested there is a very good chance that the missing articles nor their value will ever be recovered. It will be a good thing for all of us to reflect on the recent thefts and take some precautions to prevent similar stealing from our businessplaces, our homes, and our cars. Warning To Municipalities In an address to a Galt service club the other day, Mayor Robert McCallum of Toronto spoke afew truths and gave a timely warning to those incharge of municipal affairs and to the civic elec­tors throughout Ontario.Mayor McCallum warned that the day of nuis­ance taxes is not far off. He said that everyone knows the federal and provincial governments are over-taxing to create surpluses. That is unfairto municipalities. Municipal governments cannotraise property taxes much more because the homeowner and the businessman cannot afford to pay any more money than they are now doing. Townsand cities cannot go elsewhere for their money.Toronto’s mayor, a keen student of municipal finance, said, and rightly so, that the decision ofthe provincial governmbnt to assume the theatreamusement tax has not brought any relief to towns and cities who find that instead there hasbeen an increase in indigent hospital charges al-. most across the whole of Ontario. The amuse­ ment tax has been diverted to relief of only capi-tai expenditures. Towns and cities get assistancefrom the government for indigent cases, but where a person is employable and on relief forcause the municipality doesn't get any govern­ment help. Mayor McCallum is right in his con­ tention that the entire cost of such cases shouldbe borne by the province. The mayor hit another nail on the head. He came right out and advocated that the provincialgovernment pay the full cost of education insteadof a portion as at present The cost per pupil ispegged at $200 in high schools and, as in the caseof Aylmer and many others, cost of education ex­ceeds that figure and the municipalities involved derive no provincial assistance on the amountover the peg. Finally, Mayor McCallum cautions taxpayers that they must take a greater interest in theircivic governffient He does not single out Toron­to. There is a general lack of interest in mosttowns and cities. It js time the people take hold,vote and watch carefully the administrations oftheir communities; In Aylmqr, for instance,-oneseldom sees any spectators at a meeting of thetown council. The last session was an exception but only because there was a feeling there mightbe a "bombshell” exploded because the services of a policeman were dispensed with. Every meet­ing should see a full spectators’ gallery. It wouldkeep the mayor and aidermen on their toes and they would know the people arc behind them.—Aylmer Express.

It proves that first offenders in a great state prison are not so far removed from young peopleoutside prison.

Mr. Lawson congratulated Ingersoll on the lady superintendentit has for Alexandra Hospital, Mrs.Smith, and he also congratulatedthe citizens on the attention they aregiving to the hospital. He spoke ofChe hospital’s cleanliness and, also lts orderliness.Mr. Lawson recalled that it was35 years ago since he had been inthe local hospital, when he visiteda patient—E. A. Wilson.“It is always a special pleasureand one that has happily fallen tomy lot on several recent occasions,to participate in the dedication ofa new undertaking designed forcommunity benefit and enjoyment,”said the lieutenant-governor. “Thedevelopment of friendly activities,whether they be of an economit,educational or recreational nature,is always a matter for congratula­tion.“The spectacle of citizens of allranks and positions joining togetherin a common pursuit of those thingswhich promote fuller and moreagreeable living is pleasant and re­ assuring. For pride in one’s owncommunity, the endeavor to extend to all its members an opportunity forspiritual and physical betterment —this is the very spirit that mostserves to make a nation happy andprosperous.“I am glad, indeed, to know thatevidences of this friendly spirit areby no means wanting in this Ontarioof ours or in this Ingersoll of yours.”Mr. Lawson said."The progressive and energeticcharacter of the people, acting to­gether for mutual welfare, is that which makes so many Ontario com­munities shining models of self-im­ provement in our far-flung experi­ment in democracy. And I see throughout our province so manyindications and I am glad to know that your pleasant and enterprisingtown is not least among the exem­plars of this spirit.“It is similarly cheering to ob­serve so many community enter­prises that have sprung from thepatriotic and generous impulses ofindividual townsmen.“This splendid outdoor swimming PHONE 165 HARDWARE Battery Repairs Radiator and McLeod; Aquatic Bottomley’sNorma Cliff.

He is aman who, born in the Motherland,and educated in a province of Can­ada. other than the one where henow resides, brought to your com­munity a dynamic personality, amind of unusual quality and aheart filled with warm feeling forhis fellow men.“These virtues, which on the onehand have made him a distinguish­ed success in the industrial life ofthis country, and on the other apatron of undertakings aimed atbetter social living, he has devoteda part of his time over the courseof an exceedingly active career tothe upbuilding and welfare of hisadopted community.“I scarcely need to remind a ga­thering of his fellow townspeopleof the manner in which Mr. Wilsonhas demonstrated his genius forconstructive business enterprise.The many companies with which heis associated are evidence of hiscreative, organizing and adminis­trative skill—skill that .has broughtoffers of many high-ranking posi­tions which might well have tornhim from this community,” said thespeaker.“I will therefore confine myselfto pointing out what seems to meto be certain rather significant as­pects of Mr. Wilson’s career. Forthey have a direct bearing on thepresent occasion and the purposefor which we are met.“One is the fact to which I havealready referred—that Mr. Wilson,who might have filled high posts inother parts of Canada, has chosento remain a resident of the com­munity with which he has establish­ed so many ties. The other is thathe is not a mere passive member ofthat community, content merely toenjoy its pleasant environment andits communal advantages. Havingachieved a capacity to confer bene­fits, he has regarded that capacityas n trust, an obligation to giveleadership and’ practical assistancein the things that promote com­ munity welfare. Not only has he, on several oc­casions, renounced all thought ofmoving his own place of residenceor the head office of his Ingersollcompanies to a larger city, but he has spared no pains or effort infurthering the interests of hisbusiness and of his employees, andhe has striven to maintain withoutinterruption those opportunities foremployment >hich he has built un.having, during the depressionyears, operated his plants w-ithoutprofits to himself or to his share­holders so that his employees wouldnot be thrown out of work. Hourshave meant nothing to Ernie Wil­son. I have seen him working earlyin the morning and again I haveseen him late at night. -As I havesaid, he never spared himself. “All of these things are evidencethat Mr. Wilson has never consider­ed money as the sole object in life,either within the range of his bus­iness operations or m his generalrelations with others. The satisfac­tion of achievement has given Er­ nie Wilson his place. I do not needto enlarge further upon the facts which further support this impres­sion. You know of his service, with­ out remuneration, as director ofone of the Crown companies during the war, of his recent gift of a pipeorgan to a local church, and of the many instances in which he has giv­en of his means to support com­ munity and other causes;” said thelieutenant-governor of Ontario. “He is evidently, too. a man whobelieves that ’all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy,’ as is wit­nessed by his own keen enthusiasmfor speedboat racing and the cap­ture of’ many prizes both in thiscountry and across the border byhis Canadian-built speedboats. Andsince he believes in recreation forhimself, he believes in it for others.This swimming pool is an indica­tion of that belief, a testimony tothe fact that his generous and prac­tical spirit does not stop short atbelief, but insists on giving it tang­ible expression. “The fact that we have in Can­ada business men of the kind sosplendidly typified by Mr. Wilson —men who have built businesses,creating wealth from which many benefit, and who, themselves shar­ing in the results of this creative process, regard their means as con­ferring a personal obligation to serve their fellows in unselfishways—that fact is proof that our system of free individual enterpriseand a sense of public trust, under which we have achieved, so much,is capable of carrying us on to stillgreater things, and- of making Ca­nada, jwith all its thriving, progres­ sive communities such as yours, anexample t<^ the world. “May I mention here the untime­ly passing of Mrs. Wilson—a goodwife—a wonderful mother— and asplendid citizen. “We are all so thankful that shelived long enough to see what mav be termed a divine inspiration al­most completed. Mrs. Wilson hadthe satisfaction of seeing her am­bition realized. It was this ambitionto do something more to furtherbenefit and give more pleasure tothe peonle she loved and amongwhom she lived. The sincere sym­pathy of everyone here tonight is/extended to Mr. Wilson and to hisfamilv in the irrenarable loss thatthey have sustained. “Now in a democracy such as Ca­nada,” continued Mr. Lawson, “thefuture of the nation's life depend*on the political Intelligence and thecharacter of the people a* a whole.A man is not only a farmer, a ma­chinist. a clerk, a merchant, or aphysician—a woman is not only ahousewife, a stenographer, or a teacher. They are all. citizens witha responsible share in our nationaldestiny. “It makes no difference whetherone is an employee or an employer.It makes no difference Whether thework Is on a farm, in a factory, in* an office, or in » mine.

Ford, served refresh­ments in the banquet hall of StPaul's Presbyterian Church to thevisiting swimmers and their coach­es. Mr. Wilson expressed apprecia­tion to the visitors for the out­standing program they had present­ed in the swimming pool.The main pool is 100 feet longby 50 feet. 1JP 1-2 feet deep underthe one-metre and three-metre div­ing platforms, and three and a halffeet deep at the shallow end. It isurrounded by a 12-foot concretewalk. There is also a wading poolfor children. 30 feet by 50 feet.The pool conforms to all officialrequirements for competitive watergames, and it can he used for rac­ing or competitive diving.The water is 30 per cent, clearerthan drinking water, and it ischanged twice a day.There is a bathhouse of concreteblock construction, fitted with mod­ern horseshoe counters and fluor­escent lighting. tors essential to success are thesame for everyone In every place.“Resourcefulness. intelligence,alertness, honesty, right motives,and activity, are all necessary toaccomplishment. These do not varywith location, nor are they limitedto special persons. Therefore, justas much as we each make them ourown and use them, our success be­comes assured.“The Canadian democracy mustsurvive in a world where freedomhas been blotted out in many coun­tries and is threatened in all; andfor such Survival, our people must’be politically mature and culturallyawake.“In Canada, it is the right of men—rich or poor—to be treated asmen. In Canada, it is the right ofmen to make the laws by whichthey shall be governed. In Canada,it is the right of men to work where 1they will and at what they will. In Canada, it is the right of woman­kind to the serenity and to the - sanctity of the home. In Canada, it : is the right of children to play and to swim in safety under peacefulheavens. It is the right of old men i and of old women to the tranquilityof their sunset. In Canada, it is 1 the right of all of us to worship inbur own way the -God in whom we 'believe,'Uk Lawson said in con­clusion.Mr. Daniel. Oxford’s M.P.. thank­ed Hon. Mr. Lawson for his address. ’“To my recollection,” he said, “thisis the first time that our town has ■been honored with the visit of a 1 lieutenant-governor of Ontario. We 1 appreciate your coming here to as- *sist Mr. Wilson in the opening ofthe pool,” He said Mr. Lawson is lthe same genial, easy-to-meet gen- 1 tleman that he was before he was Invested with the robes of his highoffice. ’ I The chairman. Mr. Stone, thank- !ed the ladies for the splendid ban- ‘quet, to which Mrs. Buchanan re- !sponded. The program was closed 1 with the singing of “0 Canada.” af- 1 ter which many in the gathering ‘were introduced to Mr. and Mrs. ’Lawson. More than 2,500 people were as- * sembled at the pool for the official (opening. They were seated on .bleachers surrounding the pool, and .•they stood inside and outside the jfence, as well as on the roof of thebathhouse. The program was op- ,cned with a selection by the Y’s jMen’s Boys’ and Girls’ Band, underthe baton of Jim Miller. The play­ing of “God Save the King” follow- ,ed.! F. H. Stone, the president of theKiwanis Club of Ingersoll, presided, iHe thanked Mr. Wilson for “pro- (viding for you and me and our chil­dren this magnificent swimming 1pool for our enjoyment." He said ,Mr. Wilson had obtained one ofthe best contractors in Canada, andthat the job was completed in 14weeks, which is a record for thecompletion of a swimming pool inCanada. “As a result,” Mr. Stonesaid, “our swimmers will get sixweeks of swimming this summer.(The pool was built by the McCabe-Schwenger Construction Company.Limited.)Lieutenant-Governor Lawson saidhe had known Mr. Wilson for about40 years. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, hestated, have been energetic andambitious to make Ingersoll a bet­ter place in which to live. (After a train had gone by. dur­ing which time he paused in his ad­ dress, Mr. Lawson turned to MayorRiley and asked him to grant \the school children a half holiday onthe first fine day in September af­ ter the opening of school. After thaapplause, he said, “That holidayhas been granted, boys and girls.”)The W’ilsons, said the speaker, have always taken a part in thecommunity’s welfare. While en­joying keen delight in their activ­ities, they have forbidden undue publicity for themselves, Mr. Law-son said. Many people, having achieved success, have used theirfunds for selfish purposes. Mr.and Mrs. Wilson, he remarked, al­ways considered that their resourc­ es were held in trust for others. Mr. Wilson lived in Montreal. StCatharines, and Detroit before com­ing to Ingersoll. He appreciatedthe fact that swimming has untoldnatural benefits, and years ago,said Mf. Lawson, he hoped that In­gersoll would have a good swim­ ming pool. “The official opening might betermed the lifelong dream of a wo­man who is no longer with us. Shedied without seeing the completionof her vision—hundreds of boysand girls laughing and swimmingand bathing is the pool." Mr. Lawson assured Mr. Wilson of the community’s gratefulness,and he assured him also of its great grief. He then declared the Wil­son Memorial Pool to be officially opened.Mr. Stone introduced Harold Wil­son. the son of Mr. Wilson, who. hesaid, had a great deal to do withmaking the pool what it is.Rev. C. J. Queen, the rector ofSt. James’ Anglican Church and thepresident of the Ingersoll Minister­ial Association, dedicated the poolto the glory of God and in lovingmemory of Mrs. E. A. Wilson, Heread the 46th Psalm and followedit with a prayer of dedication andthe benediction.Mr. Wilson, invited to address the crowd, managed only two sent­ences, “IXam ■ven pleased to see somany pedole ./here. This is thegreatest day'bf my life.”Three cheers and a tiger wereled by Mr. Stone in honor of Mr.Wilson. The opening ceremony was broadcast over radio station CFPL.London.Swimming and lifesaving certifi­cate* were presented to a numberof boys and girls, who earned theseawards since the unofficial opening of the pool.Mr. Stone presented a lovelybouquet of roses to Mrs. Lawson,who, in reply, said she was veryhappy to be present on the mo­mentous occasion. Three cheersand a tiger were given again, inhonor of Mr. and Mrs. Lawson.Gus Ryder, of Toronto, thecoach of the Lake Shore SwimmingClub, then took over the micro­phone to present an aquatic pro­gram of swimming and lifesavingby youthful members of the club.Mr. Stone expressed thanks to Mr.Ryder and Mr. Bradley for the do- nation of trophies for the new pool.“The pool fulfills every dream ofa swimming conch.” said Mr. Ry­der. “We need at least 60 of thesepools throughout Ontario.”Jimmy Thompson of the Hamil­ Boys !
