T. BowerThe following historical sketch of the town of Ingersoll was given by Harry T. Bower, on Friday morning, during the program offic­ ially opening the new Ingersoll studios of radio station CKOX: “Friends of the radio audience, I want to talk to you for a few min­ utes in keeping with this, the first broadcast of the Oxford Broadcast­ ing Co. from its Ingersoll studio, on some of the outstanding inci­ dents of Ingersoll’s early history. “Ingersoll had its birth in the year 1793—155 years ago. At that time the nearest settlement to the east was Burford, and to the west Delaware. All these settlements were connected by an Indian high­ way- easily traced at that time be­ cause the trail had been used by many generations of moccasined feet as the Attawandaronk or neu­ tral Indians carried on their trade with other neighboring tribes be­ tween the Niagara Frontier and the Straights of Mackinaw. This road ran through miles and miles of tall giant trees, elms, maples, beach, oak, pine and walnut, and the Indians called it the road of the tall trees which name is still used west of London—the Longwoods Road. “The founder of this tow’n was Thomas Ingersoll. The settlement was first called Oxford on La Tranch and later Oxford on Thames, and still later changed to Ingersoll. Mr. Ingersoll, an Amer­ ican citizen- through his friendship with Governor John Graves Simcoe and Thayendanega, or more famil­ iarly known to our students of Can­ adian history as Joseph Brant, got to know of this wonderful fertile land- and soon obtained a contract from the British Crown whereby he and his company were granted 6,600 acres in Oxford for settle­ ment, one side of the holding touching the Thames river. “Guided by Brant’s Indians, Ingersoll arrived here in the summer of 1793, bringing with him such men as Gideeon Boswick- Chas. Wil­ liams, Seth Hamlin- Abel Kelson, Ichabod Hall and many others, followed rfiortly by the Burdicks, Merritts, Wonhams, Carrols, Cur- tices and so on, all eager to get their allotment of land and to begin the tremendous task of carving out homes for themselves in the un­ broken forests of the Thames Valley. “Settlement land progress was slow at first- at least during the next 10 to 15 years. The survey of Oxford was not completed until 1796-7. Possibly the next outstand­ ing event m the lives of these mighty empire builders was the first church service held here, in the log home of a settler, and con­ ducted by Rev. Nathan Bangs on August 1, 1801, under the auspices of the M. E. Church. According to the account written by Rev. Mr. Bangs, he was welcomed here by the |vhole community of settlers and all the Indians. “The next event of importance was the founding of a Masonic Ldtfge in June, 1803, by Jas. Bur­ dick, Enoch Burdick, Samuel Can- field, Robt. Sweet, Ariel Lowsley, Ham. Lawrence, Asokie Lewis, Joel Piper, Thos. Horner, Wm. Turner, and others. This event was import­ ant from a historical point of view because this lodge has preserved its minutes and records, and these records are authentic sources of information to-day. “In the year 1804, Oxford had a distinguished visitor in the person (Continued on page 3)T Convention Highlights Given by Vic. Brooks The Lions Club of Ingersoll commenced its fall dinner meetings on Monday evening in the St. Charles Coffee Shoppe, with a large attendance.

The acting tail twister, Carl Pal­ mer, collected fines from a num­ ber of latecomers to the meeting.

He complimented the host and hos­ tess, Mr. and Mrs. Gus Morello, on the improvements made to the Coffee Shoppe during the summer months. Secretary Vic. Brooks read a number of communications. Pre­ sident Hawkins proposed a toast to the King, and “God Save The King”, was sung. L. H. Snider, K.C., announced that the local Y.M.C.A. board is commencing a campaign for funds. “In C. Hamilton Gosse”, he said, “we have a real, live, well-trained secretary, and through him we hope to make the “Y” of real benefit to the boys and girls.” A number of Lions volunteered to assist in the campaign. Clifton Smith, the treasurer, gave the members some informa­ tion about their annual dues. Stan­ ley Moon spoke about the arrange­ ments for alley bowling and he was asked to take charge of the club’s teams. '*** V. G.

Lion Brooks gave the club an in­ teresting account of the annual convention of the International Association of Lions Clubs, which was held in New York City and which was attended by Mrs. Brooks and himself, also by Mr. and Mrs. Moon. Lion and Mrs. Brooks travel­ led by motor from Paris with Bill Phipps, the district governor. “We really had a lovely trip-,” Lion Brooks said and he told ihe Lions about the scenery, especially in the mountains which they had en­ joyed. The convention was held in Mad­ ison Square Garden. Lion Brooks told about the programs arranged for New York State and Oklahoma nights, the former presenting a program composed of more than 22 numbers. He also told the Lions about the immense parade featuring the convention. The convention delegates who included about 200 from Canada, were taken on a harbor boat ride and entertained at a basenall game- Lion Brooks recounted a visit which he had wth Dr. Edgar B. Birchall, who showed him through his ear and eye infirmary. An article about Dr. Birchall ap­ peared in the Coronet magazine a short time ago. Walter Fisher was elected first vice-president at the convention and Lion Brooks announced that the Canadian Lions are preparing to take an outstanding part in next year’s convention to be held in Madison Square Gardpn again. Lion Brooks also told the club that this year’s convention furnished splendid entertainment for the ladiej, including a style show. President Hawkins thanked Secre­ tary Brooks for his interesting re­ port of the conventon and the meeting was closed with the sing­ ing of “The Maple Leaf Forever.” ST.

So,let’s make this school term a safety-first one,with no children absent from school because oftraffic accidents.Ingersoll District Keeps Hold OnCheese and Takes Tobacco PrizesIngersoll, well known throughout Canada as acheese centre for many decades, came into prom­inence recently through one of its district resi­dents, John W. Todd, of R. R. 1, Ingersoll. Tothis town, which upon the mention of its nameimmediately starts one thinking about cheese andcontented dairy herds in lush pastures on thesurrounding farms. Mr. Todd brought the hon­or of winning no leas than three first prizes intobacco at the Canadian National Exhibition inToronto! Already known widely for the cheeseit exports, some of it bearing the name of thetown, and as a busy industrial centre, the Inger­soll district has proved that it can also producechampionship tobacco. And to show that the dis­ trict is not losing its hold upon its long-time asso­ ciation with cheese, W. R. Pigram of Thames- ford, went to the C.N. E. and brought home with him the silver cup for the best factory cheese shown there. His exhibit of cheddar cheese won for him the top marks in two cheese sections. We congratulate these two men on the honors they have brought to the Ingersoll district. It's something to munch trophy-winning cheese and waft upwards from a well-seasoned pipe the aroma of first-prize tobacco all from our own district! LOOKING BACKIn the Files ofThe Ingersoll TribuneIngersoll - Ontario We Wish Much Success To The Boys’ And Girls’ Band and Its New Leader We wish the members of the Boys’ and Girls’ Band much success under their new leader. The Ingersoll Y's Men’s Club is performing a fine community 'activity in the sponsoring of this band. Among the many projects which service clubs throughout the country undertake, each of which is a distinct benefit to the club’s commuu- munity, there are few which do more for a boy and a girl than one which gives them an oppor­ tunity to be members of a band. The band is to be congratulated on its show­ ing at the Canadian National Exhibition. While it did not win its class, the marks which it re­ ceived were sufficiently high to afford the leader, who has since resigned, and the boys and girls cause for considerable gratification. Next year we hope to see the band return to the C.N.E. and capture the first place. The new leader is an associate of Martin Boundy, now of London, and formerly of Tillson- burg. Mr. Boundy has gone far in the musical world, although he is still a young man. He has conducted prize-winning bands and choirs, and three of his hands in London were first-prize winners at the C.N.E. this year. From his asso­ ciation with Mr. Boundy, we are confident that the Boys’ and Girls’ Band will benefit greatly from the leadership of its new bandmaster. And the band is fortunate, too, to have Mr. Boundy to assist Joseph George, the new leader, in hiswork here. We hope that during the fall and winter months the band will present some programs for the enjoyment of the citizens. Perhaps the band could arrange to parade in the downtown district on a Saturday evening, when there are many people in town from the surrounding district and many local citizens are also downtown. There is something about a band on parade that makes one want to dash to see it. We commend the Y’s Men’s Club on the work it is doing on behalf of the band. Through this year-round activity for the boys and girls, it is providing them with enjoyment now in being band members and it is helping to build up in each a musical foundation that will be appre­ ciated greatly as long as they live. In wishing the new bandmaster much success and happiness m his leadership here, we hope that his efforts will be rewarded by a large membership of boys and girls. Make This Term An Accident Free One For Ingersoll's Boys and Girls With the schools of the town reopened and the teachers and pupils settling down to the business of imparting and acquiring an education, it is again a pleasure to see the boys and girls on their way to and from the schools. The sight of the happy children, with their laughter and chat­ ter, is like a tonic to grown-ups, who catch someof their radiant gladness. There is a responsibility upon motorists to­ wards these children. They should be very care­ ful not to injure one of them. Motorists should have their cars under such control that they can atop them quickly when they are in the vicinity of the schools, or at a crossing which is used by numbers of the children. All the responsibility for the safety of the children cannot be shelved off on. the motorists. The parents should caution their children to be careful in crossing the streets, and about watch­ ing the traffic signals. The children themselves must guard their own safety . They should re­ frain from darting across a street without look­ ing for traffic and they should heed well thecautioning that is given to them by their parents and their teachers. The children who ride bicycles to school must be just a littla*«nore alert than those who walk. The bicycle riders should keep well over to the right side of the street, and for thehr own safety, ft is important that they obey the traffic signals just as the motorists do. i The people of Ingertsoll "hope there will not be any boy or girl missihg from the happy groups that pass along the streets on their way to and from school because of accidents. If the boys and girls will do their best all the time to protect their own safety, we are confident the motor­ ists will use just a little more carefulness and courteounesa to make sure that they are never 2 Press Secretaries Can Help Their Groups With Prompt Reports Activities have been resumed by the churches and the community organizations following the summer holiday months. It is the desire of The Ingersoll Tribune to publish each week the re­ ports of the meetings ivhich are held by the groups. Practically evdfy group is engaged in some worth-while work, and it is helpful to it to have reports of its meetings and activities re­ ported in The Tribune. With so many groups to secure reports from, it would require a large staff to obtain them for each issue of the paper. The organizations can help themselves to secure publicity by co-op­ erating with The Tribune in the appointment of capable press secretaries, who would see that the reports are furnished regularly. Reports should be received by The Tribune as soon as possible after the meetings are held. While the paper goes to press on Wednesdays and is delivered at the post office and the stores on Thursday mornings, it is not possible to handle a large amount of copy on Tuesdays. When there is too much copy for the staff of The Tribune to handle, or when it arrives too late, it, unfortunately, must either be held over for the next week or thrown away. The co-operation of press secretaries in sen­ ding their reports to The Tribune office the next day after a meeting will be greatly appreciated. This will help the publisher and the staff of The Tribune to present to the readers of the Ingersoll trading area an interesting newspaper. J Press secretaries in the districts where The Tribune is served by its correspondents should give their reports to these people as soon as possible also. The assistance of the press secretaries in hav­ ing their reports arrive at The Tribune office promptly is necessary during the busy fall and winter months. These reports, while they need not be typewritten, should be written on one side of the paper only. Names should be written correctly, with the proper initials, and unusual names should be printed, to eliminate the possi­ bility of mistakes occurring in the published reports. With the help of the press secretaries and the continued loyal support of The Tribune’s fine staff of district correspondents, as complete coverage of the happenings in the Ingersoll trad­ ing area will be given to the readers each week throughout the activity-full months of fall and winter. 48 YEARS AGOThursday, Sept. 7th, 1900The jewelry and optical businesswhich has been carried on for sev­eral years by Mr. Wm.

Margaret What Others Say: Sees Danger To Press, Freedom Arthur Hayes Sulzberger, publisher of TheNew York Times, contends that the freedom of the British people is threatened because they arcinadequately informed. The vitality of the Brit­ ish press, he says, is an essential to the continu­ance of the democratic way of life in the United States. In his opinion a loss of freedom in Brit­ain would be reflected quickly in curtailed libertyin the U.S. To this end, he proposes to give up a percen­tage of The Times’ newsprint if other Americanpublishers will do the same—and if the Britishgovernment will allocate the dollars.This latter consideration may prove the stumb­ling block to the Sulzberger plan to assist thepress of Britain in its task of preserving democ­ racy, of keeping an enlightened people abreastof world developments. British papers have des­cribed his proposal as a “generous offer’’ but seelittle chance of the Labor Government granting the dollar currency. One editor commented thatthere would* be little chance even if the govern­ment had the dollars to grantThe government’s doling out of dollars for newsprint is a muzzle on the press, inasmuch asit restricts the volume of news that rtiay beprinted. It is a tragic situation, born of necess­ity to economize. But the greater danger lies inthe fact^that complete government control ofthe press is but one easy step further.As Socialism fastens itself upon a nation, regi­mentation becomes more and more necessary,even to regimenation of thought Criticism ofthe Government is outlawed—a free and out­spoken press loses its freedom and its free voice.Herein lies the ultimate peril that The Timespublisher sees: herein is the basis for the Lon­don editor's caustic observation.It is difficult to ■ see how dollar-short Britaincan finance the importation of more newsprintTo divert dollars to newsprint is to rob Peter tobenefit Paul. True, there are sacrifices that Brit­ons doubtless could make to assure a more virilepress. But the urgent needs of the moment maytend to obscure the menace—may dismiss theposaiblity of a government-dominated press as aremote and hypothetical issue—London FreePress. ‘on Friday to complete his studies at Trinity College.

There were several log houses in the vil­ lage itself and a post office had been established in a cobblestone building still standing on the east side of our market square. Envel­ opes and stamps had not been thought of yet, but the mail went through. It cost 7d to send a letter from York to Oxford and the post­ master recorded the amount of postage with a pen in the upper right-hand corner of the package. "Our first school was a log building situated on the northern limit of the present Memorial school grounds, which at that time was the frontage on King street. “Mr. Ingersoll was married more than once- and among the members of his family was a daughter, Laura, who spent her girlhood days 'in this community. She no doubt attended the old log school. On growing to womanhood she met Lieut. Secord, as he and his men marched over the Thames Valley road. Their friendship was the be­ ginning of a romance that culmin- 1 ated in their marriage and her re- ! moval to live on the Niagara Fron- ; tier. The part she was able to play in the war of 1812-14, which 1 earned for her the title of the • Canadian Heroine- should make citizens of -this place proud that ' Ingersoll was the home town dur- ' ing her girlhood of this bravo wo- , man. Why the citizens of this town j have never seen fit to erect a suit­ able memorial on our school ! grounds or other public place in - her memory, is a question I cannot answer. ’ “As the war of 1812 loomed on the horizon, the famous Oxford • Rifles were formed, consisting of ' two flank companies. A private re­ ceived 6d per day. This battalion, * under command of our own Major Ariel Lowsley and Thomas Homer, t joined Brock and marched over r the road of the tall trees and cap- 5 tured Detroit. They also took part C in the Battle of Fort Erie and Mai- tcolm’^ Mills. The Americans getting i reinforcements came back across - the frontier and sent along raiders ! to burn and destroy.

An occasion long to be remem­bered was enjoyed by about 50friends and relatives of the lateLevi German and his wife, Georg­ina, who went to their reward many'years ago. The homestead is nowoccupied by their granddaughterand husband, Mr. and Mrs. HaroldKipp.The occasion was planned by Mr. and Mrs. Kipp, assisted by relatives and friends, all contributing to a sumptuous feast of the good things that temp^'the appetite. The' reception and reunion were held in honor of P. M. German of Garden Grove, Calif., and his grandson, I. F. German, employed as an engineer at the technical and research division of the Texas Oil Company of New York City. After the bountiful repast was enjoyed by a crowd of hungry peo­ ple, the rest of the day was spent in happy conversation on the topics of the day and the occasion that brought them together. The celebration then reached its climax with a short program of music and speeches. Fred L. German, acting as mas­ ter of ceremonies and in his happy and capable way, introduced his brother, P. M. German, who took as his subject, "The unity of man­ kind as God’s created beings, and the, necessity for mankind follow­ ing out to completion God's work of redemption through His Son, Jesus Christ, which should be the tie that binds the lives of all hu­ manity together.” Mr. German '•1- so called on the following guests: Irvine F. German, Stanley Galpm, Bruce Thornton, John H. Germah, Spencer German, and the host, Mr. Kipp, who responded happiiy in expressing their pleasure in meet­ ing together. Not ony the honoured guests from California and New York, but as well their loved ones and friends assembled. No small item of the programme was the music of the day rendered by Mrs. Bruce Thornton and Irvine F. German- which captivated and thrilled those who had the privilege of hearing them. Mr. I. F. German was a guest in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Kipp and to bring his visit to a -fitting climax, they arranged an auto trip to Niagara Falls, landing him in Hamilton.

Starke, the pro­duction manager of the OxfordBroadcasting Company’s radte­station CKOX, as the anouncer,the station’s Ingersoll ktudios at180 Thames St. South, were offic­ially opened on Friday morning.Mr. Starke told the listening audi­ence that CKOX will now serve thepeople of Ingersoll and districtwith their own studio. Mayor C. W. Riley, who declared the studios officially opened, said he was very pleased that CKOX has opened a studio in Ingersoll. “From a publicity standpoint,’’ he he said, “it is very valuable.” Harry T. Bower presented an in­ teresting historical sketch of the Town of Ingersoll. Following his address, Leigh H. Snider, K.C., the secretary of the Ingersoll Cham­ ber of Commerce, spoke, “I con­ sider it a privilege, in the absence of our president, R. A. Stone, to extend the congratulations of the Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce to radio station CKOX on the occasion of the official opening of the Ing­ ersoll studio,” said Mr. Snider. “The Ingersoll Chamber of Com­ merce realizes, as do our citizens, that aggressive leadership and pro­ motion by radio and newspaper play an important part in communitywelfare and prosperity. Ingersoll,which is a large and thriving townwith a population of well over6,000 persons, should now be re­ceiving the consideration and pub­licity which its size and import­ance warrant.”Also present in the ^tudio forthe opening, as well as radio andpress representatives, was R. G.Start* K.C., chairman of the Alex­ andra Hospital Trust. Following the opening addresses, announcer Starke gave a number of news items of interest to the town and district. The opening program was interspersed with musical selections from the station’s Woodstock studio. GOLD-FILLED MEDAL W. S. Munro of Embro, won a gold-filled medal at the C.N.E. horse show on Thursday with his entry in the model harness horse class. The Embro horse was judged for conformation and other points. Munro also placed second in the I agriculturalist Canadian-bred har­ ness horse event. The season just closed was a bet­ter one than 1947, W. W. Wilford,who allocates pionic dates for Mem­orial Park, told The Ingersoll Tri­bune last week. He said apprecia­tion for the improvement^ effectedin the park was shown in the largernumber of picnics held in it thisyear. There were many picnicsfrom outside centres as well as localgroups. In addition, he said, a largenumber of family picnics, not rec­ orded in the books, were held. Lewis J. Martin, the chairman of the Parks Board, speaking of the improvements made in the local parks this year, said new mowing equipment with a rolling apparatus had been purchased, which greatly assisted in the maintenance of a better appearance for the parks. The board, he said also, had consid­ erable expense in enlarging the race track in Victoria Park to the regulation size. In addition, num­ erous improvements were made toboth parks. ............. wp winners, taxing prizes m l—’ w,n ner amon« I TXIh1Ue DbrrBai‘nn OoIf aann aaddUul,tt elephant| the Clydesdale classes.

G. Murray informed'the members of the Ingersoll Pub­lic School Board, at their Septem­ber meeting on Wednesday even­ing last, that of 66 entrance 'can­didates from Victory MemorialSchool 62 were successful. He saidthe standing compared very favor­ably with the rest of the province. The average age of pupils writ­ ing the entranc^examinations, ac­ cording to statistics, is 14 to 14 1-2 years, Mr. Murray told the board. This means that a long time is re­ quired before pupils ,who go to col­ leges and universities, complete their courses. Better results might be obtained, he thought, if there were fewer pupils in the rooms of the Public Schools, making it pos­ sible to give them more advance­ ment- He felt that in some cases the pupils might do grades three and four in one year, and if this were done it would tend to reduce the time spent in the schools. Regarding the increased enroll­ ment, Mr. Murray said, “If our schools were bulging at the seams list year, they are now beyond that stage.” He told the board that there is definite overcrowding m some of the rooms, and he hoped that seats which had been on or­ der for some time, would arrive soon. Principal Murray said the provid­ ing of books and supplies by the board would do much to raise the standard of the work. There would be, however, a tendency to increase the organization work. He said that efforts are being made to im­ press upon the boys and girls the importance of taking good care of their books and supplies. The materials supplied to the pu­ pils were all of good quality. He also' said that both schools are suitable for good work, and he be­ lieved that more would be accom­ plished under the changed condi­ tions. Principal Murray compli­ mented the caretakers of both schools and the members of the board on the keeping of the schools tidy and clean. John Wilford, the attendance of­ ficer, in his monthly report said there had been no home calls. ’Three work permits were issued, [ and other applications received hadnot yet been dealt with.Miss Ruth Cuthbertson, in a let­ter, requested that her resignationas kindergarten director and super­visor of music be accepted to takeeffect on January 1, 1949. On aresolution, the resignation was ac­cepted with regretThe chairman, Trustee C. A. Ack- ert, expressed appreciation for the splendid service of Miss Cuthbert­ son, whose marriage to Gordon Tingle.took place recently. In con­ nection with her work in the local schools for many years, Mr. Ackert said that Mrs. Tingle was born and raised in Ingersoll, and that the i services which she has rendered to the schools have been most import­ ant “I think,” he said, “we all realize that we are losing a good teacher who has been very valuable to this community.” On a resolution, the teachers’ committee was authorized to adver­ tise for a supervisor of music to conform to the present conditions in the two schools. The report of the finance com­ mittee, authorizing the payment of a number of accounts, was adopted. The secretary-treasurer, J. J. Mc­ Leod, told the members • of the | board aboiit the efforts he had made to obtain delivery of the much-needed desks for the schools. He was hopeful that they would ar­ rive by the end of the week. Reports were given by the com­ mittee chairmen on the improve­ ments which were made in the schools during the summer holi­ days. In committee of the whole, the board ^discussed, the non-resident tuition" fees, and later the following report was adopted: "The cost of education has continuously increas­ ed during the past number of years, and after careful consideration of all the facts we find it necessary to recommend to this board that the cost of tuition of non-resident pu­ pils be increased to $6 per family per month, commencing on Septem­ ber 1, 1948.” _______________ On a resolution, it was decided to do away with the kindergarten fees formerly paid by all pupils. IMM UNIZATIO N Making Sinners Profit (By Joseph Lister Rutledge) It is rather strange the way so many of us try to make the essent­ ial thing that we all set out to do, into a sin, as if there were not sins enough in the world. We’ll all ad­ mit that we want to better our­ selves. We work so that our work will bring a return. We study our job so that it will bring a better re­ turn. That is the essential opera­ tion of the growth of profits. If we didn’t want them, we would never move from one job to another, to better ourselves. We would be sat­ isfied with any return our effort brought us. More than that, we would be content to have our sons follow in our satisfied footsteps. Our desire that our sons should go farther than we have gone, live bet­ ter and achieve more is, in essence, the profit motive. Then why do we insist that pro­ fits are wrong? We do so because we refuse to make a distinction be­ tween prices and profits, and be­ cause we will not recognize that the consumer always sets the pro­ fit. He sets it because of the sim­ ple fact that there can be no profit until the sale is made. When pric­ es go up it is because we, as con­ sumers, clamor too much for scarce commodities. We can send prices and profits down any time that we say we don’t want the goods. Mean­ while we are only blaming one an­ other because a natural law con­ tinues to work. Butter is a nice case in point. It is a sore point and it promises to become sorer. Well, let us have the grim satisfaction of knowing that it is largely our own fault We tried to make sinners of men who were no more sinners than you and I. the men who distributed butter. Left to themselves, they would have stored butter and made a pro­ fit, and we woyki all have paid fair­ ly high prices. But the profits wouldn't have been any consider­ able part of it, because these men intended continuing to do business with you and me. Instead we set about making them sinners, and circumscribing them with restrict- tions and ceilings, until they were right off the market. Now, what have we accomplish­ ed? We’ve taken out of the mark­ et the business men, who, in their own interests, must make a profit which could be defended by an un­ biased jury as a proper rental for the experience and capital and ef­ fort involved. We replace them with a guy who works in the black market, has no experience, but has some dubious capital and a low cunning masquerading as effort. He plays on our private weakness and selfishness to accumulate a profit that nothing could justify, and thumbs his nose at public opinion. Well, it’s our choice. When we make a sin of so universal a thing as profit, we help sinners to fat profits. SOFTBALL FANS AID PLAYER WITH EXPENSES Jack Rickard, 26-year-old centre fielder for the Harrietsville softball team, is convinced the ball fans of Dorchester and district are “good sports.” When the R.C.A.F. veteran from R. R. 1, Mossley, broke his leg in a play-off game at Dorchester early last week, fans contributed $124 on the spot to pay his medical expenses. The collection froih the crowd of 450 exceeded the gate receipts by almost $26. Rickard was playing in the fourth game of a best three-out-of five semi-final play-off series for the North Dorchester Softball Associa­ tion championship between Har- ‘rietsville and Belmont. When he attempted to slide into second base in the fifth inning his foot caught and other players near-by said they could hear the snap as his leg broke cleanly below the knee. Dr. Helen Doan from Harriets­ ville was called and Rickard was taken to Victoria Hospital by the R. A. Logan and Son ambulance. Rickard was admitted to hospi­ tal and his leg set by’ Dr. Doan. He was discharged the following day. Rickard’s team, Harrietsville, was eliminated from the play-offs on Friday evening by Belmonte DIPHTHERIA SMALLPOX Not too early to immunize If your baby is six months or over he should be protected against Diphtheria and Whooping Cough.

Frank Fulton,rers’ Supplies, Fuel, Feed Wallace Bros., THAMES uu Building Supplies and EMBRO USE OF NITROGEN AS FERTILIZER Canadian consumption of nitro­ gen fertilizer has increased from some 11,000 tons in 1040 to about 27,000 tons in 1947. On a popula­ tion and crop acreage basis Canada still uses relatively little nitrogen as compared with some countries. About 90 per cent of it is used as an ingredient of mixed fertilzers and five per cent for side dressing, mainly for leafy vegetable crops. The estimated tonnage of nitrogen tilizer purposes used in the trade year ended July 1, 1948, was 127,- 318 tons. With the exception of 40,250 tons of ammonium phosphate, about 90 per cent of the total wasused in the five Eastern provinces and ten per cent in the "Western provinces of Manitoba, Saskatche­ wan, Alberta and British Columbia. Some 36,000 tons were used in the Prairie Provinces mainly for grow­ ing sugar beets and grain— principally registered and certified seed grain. The demand for 11-48 ammonium phosphate in the Prair­ ies has increased rapidly and there is still a shortage of this fertilizer for that part of Canada, as well as drill attachment^ for applying it The principal families of plants are distributed worldwide. Acreage of tobacco grown in Canada in 1948, according to the first estimate of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, is eight per cent smaller than the record acre­ age harvested last aesaon. The acre­ age planted this year is currently estimated at 116,374 acres while the harvested acreage in 1947 was 125,267. The acreage of all types, with the exception of cigar to- bahco, shows"'a reduction from last The preliminary estimate of pro­ duction of tobacco, however, shows a substantial increase over the quantity harvested in 1947, and is estimated at 126,681,000 pounds, compared with the 1947 harvest of 106,688,000 pounds. The average yield of tobacco, including all types, in 1948 is set at 1,098 r—per acre compared with 852 pounds per acre in 1947. BIG RYE, FLAX CROPS The combined output of fall and spring rye for Canada from the 1948 crop is estimated by the Do­ minion Bureau of. Statistics at mid­ August to be 26.3 million bushels, nearly double that of 1947. The Canadian rye crop as currently es­ timated is,exceeded only by the 1922 crop which reached 32.4 mil­ lion bushels. A near-record 1948 Canadian flaxseed crop of 18 million bushels from 1.9 million seededwicrea is also forecast Last year the outturn was 12.2 million bushels, while the largest flaxseed crop previously harvested in Canada was one of 26.1 million bushels in 1912.

We had two orthree cold days, they stopped sing­ing—I missed them. This morningthey awakened me—at half pastfour. They .were in full song and I thought of what I had said before and was sorry for it. I feel now that they are more numerous than ever. I was happy and went to sleep again with the song of the birds, sounding in my ears. Some time ago I pointed out the very obvious fact that if we pro­ duced less we would get less. If we have been working 44 hours a week and decide to have a 40-hour week production will decline, we shall have four hours more of idleness. If the people want to work 40 hours instead of 44 and are content to take less all will be well but if some of us work 40 hours instead of 44 and take the difference out of our neighbors;—it won’t be cricket, will it? A few days ago i received a let­ ter from a man in Hamilton, On­ tario:“I want to thank you for your articles,’’ he wrote. “They are in­ teresting and informative. I’m pret­ ty busy and do not have time to read they as carefully as 1 might, but I get the gist of them just the same. I’m criclosing two articles on the subject which you dealt with lately, the issue of more produc­ tion.” One is from The Hamilton Re­ view, the other is from Machinery, an English magazine. The former publication makes this statement: “Good management gets results with the co-operation of other peo­ ple. Strikes and work stoppages, lockouts and walkouts, do not keep production flowing steadily, do not get the most economic product, and do not tend to keep men and ma­ chines working to produce the best operating results.” The English magazine after com­ menting on American aid to Eu­ rope gives this statement from the Chancellor of the Exchequer: “Time is the essence of the prob­ lem, we cannot afford to waste a moment of it.”“This is perfectly true,” so states this British editor, “but he might well have added that unless we pro­ duce goods in greater volume and with greater efficiency none of these expedients will serve to solve our problems.” So now, as never before,in world history people are conscious of the fact that a higher standard of liv­ ing can come only from an in­ creased volume of production. It’s true here as elsewhere. Last week’s issue of Saturday Night contained a sketch of T. C. Douglas, premier of Saskatchewan. It was an interesting story, written by Wallace Hunt. It dealt mainly with the “quibs” of Mr. Douglas, a brilliant man who has made a col­ lection of smart answers to inter­ ruptions which may come to a speaker upon a public platform. I doubt if there is any man in Cana­ da who has as large a supply of this particular form of repartee. Let me give you an example. Some one quizzed him the other day about the high cost of govern­ ment in Saskatchewan, expenses had moved up from $17 million in', 1936 to $52 million, the estimate for 1^49. Mr. Douglas promptly re­ plied: “It takes more money to run a boat that is going some place than.one that is tied at the dock.”* * • The reply gives no answer to the question. The object of the reply is to draw attention away from the immediate subject under discussion and to embarrass the questioner by avoidance of a direct answer. Is it effective? Is it the sort of answer you would like to receive if you asked a question? Does it win friends and influence people or WINS WITH B-A Canada’s foremost DUCTS HAROLD WILSON W SILVER CUP SPEE AT DETROIT M OAT RACE DAY USING B Harold Wilson raced classic, Sept. 6, and in years. WILSON SAYS: *7n speedboat racing where the engine is pushed and punished to the limit, the right fuels and lubricants are of prime importance. For years I have used British American Petroleum Products in speed* boat racing. They have the superb quality to 'take it' when the going is toughest., This same superb quality makes Peerless Ethyl Gaso* line and Peerless Motor Oil champions on the highways."

There are times when some of us seem anxious to see money spent even if it is wasted but it happens, in the nature of things—there comes a time when people wish they had the money they spent in the days of the boom. Many strange items cross my desk. People write who have ques­ tions to ask, stories to tell and— rarely—faults to find. This one came from a well-known civil en­ gineer. an Irishman who has a hap­ py grin for everybody, friend and foe—if he has a foe.

MIXED FERTILIZERS In the trade year 1946-47 a total of 657,282 tons of all fertilizers was used in Canada according to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. Of this total, 561,464 tons were mixtures. It is interesting that of the tqtal tonnage of m&ed fertiliz­ ers used, 60 per cent "was of two grades; 176,747 tons of 2-12-6 grade and 164,986 tonsllof 4-8-10 grade. The 2-12-6 is by far the most popular fertilizer for grain and farm crops and the 4-8-10 is the potato and garden crop fertil­ izer. Other countries may be using more nitrogen for these crops, but so far Canada has not found this to be necessary. xThere\ is now/Relatively little organic \ltrogefi used for fertil­ izer purpose^/7 Small amounts are -supplied in some tobacco fertilizers, and a relatively small tonnage of bone meal tankage and blood is sold mainly to florists and for use in backyard gardens. Canadian exports of nitrogen under International Emergency Food Council allocations during the year ended June 30, 1948, are estimated at 132,422 tons as com­ pared with the total domestic com- sumption of 27,000 top*.

IMPRISON BEETLE I A stowaway, more troublesome than most, was in the liner, “Aqui- tania” when she berthed at South­ ampton recently^—but this extra passenger was in a test-tube. A Colorado beetle was found near the bridge by the quarter­ master when the ship was 800 miles from England. The ship’s doctor placed it in a test-tube and pre­ sented it to the captain, and then down with hoses. A wireless message was sent to Southampton and when the “Aqui tania” docked, an expert from the Ministry of Agriculture came a- board and confirmed that the beetle was a Colorado. It is to remain the property of the ship as a specimen to be ex­ hibited to passengers. The Colorado beetle is a menace to crops, and its entrance into a country would be fatal to a goodharvest.

I “May it also serve to remind us of those whose graves are not here. Many have not the privilege of honoring the graves of their par­ ents,” and the speaker said that loved ones of some are buried in other parts of Canada. Some whom the service honored lie in Flander’s fields, in the tulip beds og Holland, in the sands of the desert, or in some unmarked grave. “We honor the, graves of those out of sight but not out of mind,’, Rev.

The observance of the annual decoration service will mean very little unless it makes for greater, living, and the speaker also said that deaths of loved ones make for very little unless they inspire bet­ ter living. “Let our flowers and our observance of this day pledge ourselves to show our gratitude to them,” said Rev. Mr. Ward. Before the singing of the closing hymn, Rev. Mr. Daniel expressed pleasure on the large attendance. He extended a welcome to Mayor Riley and Mr. Daniel, M.P., and he tendered thanks on behalf of the Legion to the three bands for their spendid assistance. After the last hymn, “O God, Our Help In Ages Past," Rev. Mr. Daniel pronounced the benediction. The color party, the bands and the Legion then paraded back to the Market Square for dismissal.

HUNT RELATIVES TO CLAIM ESTATE Chicago, 111.—Relatives of Mary Peak who are probaly the descen­ dants of her brothers and sisters, are Being hunted in Western On­ tario, Province of Canada, to claim an estate of about $25,000 left by a relative of whom they obviously never heard.Walter C. Cox, probate geneal­ ogist, 208 S. LaSalle St, Chicago, who specializes in tracing missing relatives to settle estates, is direct­ ing the search with scant clues as to their whereabouts in the area. “Mary Peak is understood," Mr. Cox said, “to have been born in Western Ontario in about 1872, the daughter of William and Isa­ bella Peak who came to Canada from Ireland.. “It appears obvious that the children or grandchildren of her brothers or sisters, if any, would have first claim to the estate, but if there are none living then other relatives would suceed to inheri­ tance. ” L* “Sandpaper” was known to the Chinese as early as the 13th cen­ tury, when they used a natural gum to make bits of crushed seashells stick to the parchment/ The X-ray is used in detection of fraud in painting, as it shows un­derpainting not visible on the sur­face.
