Appreciation to Lions
On Calls”
Programme
R. G. Start, K.C., the chairman
of the Alexandra Hospital* Trust,
addressed the citizens of Ingersoll
and the district on Monday even
ing during the "I.H.F. Galls” pro
gram from radio staton CFPL,
London. His address was as fol
lows:
"This program is in support of
one of the biggest projects ever
undertaken in Ingersoll. Four years
ago the Lions Club of Ingersoll
announced as its principal under
taking henceforth the raising of
money to assist in the construction
of a new hospital in Ingersoll. This
announcement served to set into
full motion all other agencies in
the planning and financing of the
new hospital.
“Today the plans are completed
for a sixty bed hospital to serve
an area to include the adjoining
portions of six townships as well
as the Town of Ingersoll.
"To construct this building,
$430,000.00 has been either paid,
promised. or otherwise arranged
but according to the tenders which
are now in, the cost of construct
ion may exceed this amount, per
haps by a substantial figure and
we must now raise the balance or
cut down on the capacity and
completeness of the building as
planned. I am not in a position to
make any further statement in
this connection tonight, but we can
say that nothing would be permitted
to delay the commencement of con
struction, which we hope will be
gin within the month.
"I am here tonight to say a word
of appreciation to the Lions Club
and the "I.H.F” program which it
sponsors. This service club, not a
large club in terms of membership,
has already raised and paid over
to this new hospital building fund
$8,500.00 and has pledged another
$3,500.00, making the total contri
bution $12,000. This, I suggest,
is an astonishing achievement, and
one which the whole community can
well applaud.
“Someone might zay that this
sum is only a smal1 fraction of the
total sun^ required. Might I point
out that this is ‘found’ money to
-the building fund, ‘extra’ money
which would r.ot be recovered in
any other way.
"Not only has the I.H.F. program
and the other a:u7ities of this serv
ice club supported us financially,
but have served also to keep this
big undertaking continually before
the public and to such an' extent
that our building committee has
had little to worry about in so far
as publicity is concerned.
“This program was launched a
little more than six months ago and
immediately captured the general
public's interest and support and
now as it enters the fall months, I
suggest that it will v receive even
wider support.
“In their desire to share in pro
viding for the citizens of Ingersoll
and surrounding community, hos
pital facilities equal to those avail
able in other centres, members of
the LionsClub of Ingersoll have set
for themselves a high goal and you
can help them win this objective,
and at the same time, have a lot of
fun, if during this fall and winter,
when the familiar voices of Bob
Reinhardt and Jack liman are
heard every Monday evening at
9:30, you are seated by your radio
and with your I.H.F. brick close at
hand.”

Our Nation Prepares To Give
Thanks For a Bountiful Harvest
Next Monday, a public holiday, is appointed
by our government as a day of national thanks
giving. The selection of the day, after the com
pletion of the harvest is fitting. While basically
the day celebrates the harvesting of the crops,
it has also come to be looked upon as a day of
general thanksgiving. The farmer, on Thanksgiv
ing Day, gives thanks for his bountiful crops,
and the town or city resident is thankful for
many things he has enjoyed during the past 12
months.
Thanksgiving Day is a family day, when the
housewife calls her family to the dinner table
to enjoy a feast that is second only to that of
Christinas Day—the next public holiday. It is a
day of thankfulness when everyone is imbued
with a feeling of appreciation for good crops, the
ability to earn a living, for good health, and for
the freedom which is a right of every citizen of
Canada.
The appointment of- a Monday for Thanksgiv
ing Day links the celebration closely to the
church in its Sunday services. Thanksgiving or
harvest services in the churches are inspiring in
their beauty. Not all of the churches observe
them on Thanksgiving Sunday, but the services
on Thanksgiving Sunday are always appropriate
to the purpose of the national holiday following
bn the next day—the giving of thanks to God
for blessings received during the year.
Apart from the giving of thanks at this Thanks
giving season, we have much that we can medi
tate upon. In the midst of plenty, there are
nations in which there are shortages of food, of
clothing and of fuel to warm their homes. And
there are nations where people, living in fear,
would find it hard to comprehend fully the great
freedom which we enjoy.
We should be humble in our Thanksgiving
celebrations. In the enjoyment of this national
hbliday, we ought to be concerned in our think
ing about a more just distribution of the harvests
of the world, about the right of every person to
have the same freedom that is ours, and about
the graveness of the situation in Europe. We
ought to combine with out prayers of thankful
ness, petitions for guidance from the Lord of the
Harvest in the establishment of a way of peace
upon this earth of ours.
The “Y” Helps To Develop Healthy
Boys and Girls In Ingersoll
The campaign which was .begun on Monday
to raise funds for the Ingersoll Y.M.-Y.W.C.A.
is now well under way. The officials of the "Y”
are asking the citizens for *7,500, which is not
a very large sum in comparison .to the activities
and services planned for the “Y.” It is hoped that
the campaign will close on Saturday evening with '
the quota oversubscribed.
The "¥” has budgeted its expenses for the
next 12 months, and the appeal covers this bud
get, as well as paying for repairs and improve
ments to the building. It has been some time
apparently since the building has had much
money spent on it, and now it needs attention in
the way of needed repairs and in improvements
* which will affect its appearance and its useful-
Ingersoll Is fortunate to have a "Y.” Appre
ciation Is due to the citizens of this town who
instituted the "Y” here and who have carried it
on. Much of the cost of the maintenance of the
“Y” has bebn shouldered by a few. Ingersoll is
not only fortunate to have a "Y”, but also to
have js trained leader here on a full-time basis.
The fact that all this is not a recent innovation
to our town shows conclusively that there are
citizens who are concerned about the welfare of
the boys and girls. They provided opportunities
for them to enjoy recreational and social
activities.
In the campaign now being conducted to assure
the continuance of the "Y” program for an
other year, it is planned to call at every home.
Teams of canvassers all volunteers, are visiting
the citizens to explain the value of the “Y” to *
Ingersoll and to ask them to help in keeping it
available for the boys and girls.
Jt is a campaign in which all the citizens^should be glad to share. The “Y" b helping to
build healthy boys and girls, and these form
Ingersoll’s most Important asset Instead of try
ing to start boys and ' girls on the right road
after they have appeared in juvenile court, the
«y»» with its active program, starts them out
right so that they will not end up in juvenile
courts. It is to the credit of the "Y”, the local
Mrvice clubs, the churches, Sunday Shools, other
organizations and interested citizens that Inger
soll has been singularly free of juvenile delta-
tnMncj.' Wo wish the “Y” officials and all the can-waMtn much success in their work this week,
JFe hope that the citizens will co-operate wi®
THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, OCT, 7, 1948
them in giving them as few return calls as poss
ible as the people who are doing the canvassing
are giving their time and service to the "Y”
campaign tree of any charge. And we also hope
that the citizens of Ingersoll will sho4r that they
appreciate what the "Y" has done and is plann
ing to do in the community by contributing as
generously as they can. They can be sure that
if the quota is oversubscribed the money will be
wisely spent in extending the activities of the
"Y.”
The Mellow Month of October Brings
Sunny Days and Scenic Grandeur
This is the mellow month of October. It is the
month when the autumn season brings much to
delight us. While we cannot predict what Oc
tober in this year of 1948 may bring, it is usu
ally filled with many sunny days. There is an
urge to get,out into the country, away from the
highways, to enjoy the beauty of the sunshine
on the grandeur of nature’s coloring of the trees
and shrubs.
October is the month when storm windows go
go on, and then furnaces are made ready. And
there is something about 'the tang of wood
smoke coming from chimneys on cool October
evenigs that fills one with delight
In October, the farmer finishes his harvesting.
His corn is* blown into the silos, or it is left in
the fields in the tall shocks to be taken into the
bam in the winter as it is needed to feed the
cattle.
October presents a scene of leave-taking from
outdoor activities and the preparation for indoor
warmth in winter. And while the man of the
house struggles - with storm windows and stove
pipes, he cannot be oblivious to the mellowness
Hof October days and the autumnal shades of the
•foliage.
The Bumps Are Coming Out
Of Our Streets Fast These Days
The bumps are coming out of Ingersoll’s streets
fast these days, and there are happy smiles about
it on the faces of Ingersollites. Those extremely
rough middle strips of the streets, where the
trenches were dug for the installation of the
sewerage system, are being filled in and covered
with smooth asphalt. The contractors are filling
in the holes on the streets also. In just a short
time now the work should be completed, and
then visitors to our town will not be prompted to
make a donation as the beginning of a fund to
give us better streets. While the sewerage job
was in progress, Ingersoll’s citizens had rough
riding over them and "rough riding” from their
out-of-town friends when they came for visits.
What Others S a y:
Right, Left, Right, Left
A correspondent wants to know what we meanby right, rightist, left, and leftist Despite theconstant use of these' words in the press, hewrites he has not found a single acquaintancewho. could define them for him.This is not altogether surprising. A definitionis not quite as simple a matter as it was whenthe terms came into use to describe the conservatives who sat to the right of the presiding offi
cer in a European legislaive chamber end theradicals who sat to his left Today we have the
spectacle of extreme rightists or fascists who insome respects seem closer to extreme leftists orcommunists than either is to the moderate conservatives or progressives just right or left ofcentre.
The issue is further complicated by the word"liberal." In the classic English sense it is used
of one who stresses individual rights and laissez-faire capitalism and who today is somewhere toright of centre. In the new American sense it isused of one who stresses social justice and acontrolled economy and who today is somewhereto left of centre. In the fullest and truest senseit may mean one at the centre who balances thefreedom of the individual (R) against the requirements of society (L), -rights (R) against
duties (L), stability (R) against change (L),special privilege (R) against forced equality (L).
To- the reactionary and revolutionary alike thecentre'position is a milksop one, blowing neitherhot nor cold. To the individual who tries to hold it.
however, it requires the toughest, clearest kindof thinking, the courage to espouse values either
to the right or left when the whole tide of cur-rent emotion is running the other way. Theright, in. general, looks to the past The left, ingeneral, looks to the future. The liberal -centre'.both reads history and dreams\dreams. It is thehinge, between yesterday and tomorrow. It putsits faith, in today—Christian Science Monitor.
Health and Our Emotions
For some years now the medical fraternity
have known that our emotions and mental re
actions can affect most of the organs of the
. body. They have been telling us that anger, fearhatred, jealousy, etc., can affect our metabolism
—that ds the chemical changes in our protoplasmic cells which provide energy for our vital processes and new material to repair that whichwears out. These thought processes, they alsotell us. can affect the digestive juices the beating
of .the heart, our breathing, elmination. and evenouP skin surfaces.
We know much of this from common experience. If we “blow our top” we have a headache,
or heartburn, or some other discomfort. If weseethe Inwardly because the boss has given us asharp Order or gnaw our fingernails in despair
because someone else is going out with our bestgirl or fellow, we usually pay for it physically.
Centuries ago. the wise Solomon said of man,"As he thtaketh in his heart, so is he.” Manifestly, if we would avoid many ills and physicalaggravations, we would be wise to refrain fromgiving way to violent emotions. We have beentaught this from childhood, but we don’t alwaysremember. It is often a temptation to "get mad”
over some trifle, to "bawl out”. somebody whodispleases us, to get excited over political argu
ments. to burst into tears, or allow ourselves tobe frightened. For our health’s sake, it is bestto curb these tendencies.—The Arizona Republic.
Don’t Bite Off Too Much
Every conscientious Canadian farmer wants toimprove the profit picture of his farm, rendermore useful service to his community and thusto the world at large. As a citizen and farmerhe must be searching constantly for superiormethods to fulfill his dual function more effectively. But in neither ease is it possible to enactall improvements at once. The man who attemptsto Institute every known improvement in a singleyear often fails to do a thorough and effective
job with any of them. In many eases ha becomesdisheartened, disillusioned and finally sinks into
the category of a "wash-out.” A smart farmerwill take a step nt a time instead of attempting toleap to the top of the ladder in one jump. Theold saying “don’t bite off more than you can
chew,’’ still holds good.—The Leamington Post

Dates of the fall and winter con- i
cert series sponsored by the Inger- :
soil Collegiate Institute and the
music branch of the Department of (Education have been released by <
Principal J. C. Herbert of the Col- ,
legiate Institute.
The first concert will be given on ■
Friday evening, October 15th, and j
will feature Mary McDonald, pian
ist; Donna Grescoe, violinist; Earl
Dick, tenor, and Doria Swan, so
prano.
Donna Grescoe is an outstanding
violinist from Winnipeg, who, at
the age of 10, won a $5,000 schol
arship to the American Conserva
tory of Music in Chicago and went
there to study. At the annual mus
ty festival in Winnipeg in 1942, she
received the highest rating the
judges had ever given. In the fall
of 1946 she made her debut in her
home city of Winnipeg and played
before an audience of 4,500. Since
then she has played at Town Hall
in New York and at Carnegie Hall,
where she has been widely acclaim
ed by music critics. For the sec
ond consecutive year now, she has
won the violin scholarship to the
Berkshire Festivals by Serge Kous-
zevitsky and the Boston Symphony
Orchestra in open competition with
violinists from all parts of North
■ and South America.
i Miss Grescoe will be ably sup
ported by Mary McDonald, pianist,
and lyric soprano, who has been ac-
I claimed by such musicians as Andre
; Kostelanetz, eminent conductor,
, and Frank LaForge, world renown
ed teacher and arranger, for her
dual talent
g Earl Dick, tenor, who is in his
. final year of the Senior School,
Royal Conservatory of Music, and
j Doris Swan, who has won awards in
r the Kiwanis Festival of Toronto,
will perform in the first concert.
The second concert on Monday,
November 1st, will feature John
Coveart, pianist; Betty Ann Fisch-
er, violinist} -----, ___prano, and Mary Oxl4y, cellist.
This is an exceptionally well-bal
anced group of very promising art
ists who have performed on the air
and on the public platform.
Carl Tapscott and his male quar
tet, accompanied by Mary Syme,
concert pianist, will give the fourth
concert on Friday, December 3rd.
This quartet should provide a very
pleasing program for music lovers I
in Ingersoll and district.
The final concert of the season
will be presented by the Leslie Bell I
Choir. This internationally famous]
choir was heard in Ingersoll last
year, and that it has consented to I
return is a tribute to its reception I
on its first appearance in Ingersoll
last season. A definite date has not
been set for this concert, but it is
expected to take place some time in I
January.
Owing to limited accommodation,
season ticket holders will be given
priority in attendance at these con
certs. In view of the success of the
concert series last year, those who
wish to be certain of accommoda
tion should purchase season tickets
at an early date.

“Many young people
are filled with fear and
are not opened,
‘.‘What a wonderful thing it would
be if their eyes were opened so
that they could see the resources
within themselves.
The speaker said the “Y" is
opening the. eyes of the young
people concerning their own bod
ies, so that they can go through
life healthy and strong. It is open
ing their eyes to mental alertness,
and he said that mental discipline
is absolutely necessary.
•Mr. Hosking also hoped that the
eyes of young people would be
opened as to spirit - - “the greatest
need of our society today.”
Science, he said has no answers
concerning the true values of life.
The Y.M.C.A.. he told the gather
ing and a listening radio audience
over station CKOX, has ever work
ed towards bringing the eyes of
the young people wide open to
spiritual things.
The speaker said he would like
to see the eyes of young people
opened to the truth that love is
greater than hate. Positive emo
tions he said, elevate the mind. The
great need of young people, Mr.
Hosking said, is to see their purpose
in life. God has a mission for
everybody, he added.
Canvassers in the local cam
paign, stated the speaker, should
approach the people with confi
dence and courage. “Get your
chests up before you go in,” he
said. The “Y” board will spend
every dollar it receives wisely, and

MISS ROMA ACK£RT
PASSES IN HAMILTON
The remains of Miss Roma Ack-
ert, who passed away in Hamilton
on Sunday evening, September
26th, were laid to rest in the Inger
soll Rural Cemetery on Thursday
morning. Rev. C. J. Queen, the
rector of St. James’ Anglican
Church, conducted the service at
the graveside.
Miss Ackert had been in failing
health for some time- She was
born in Ingersoll, a daughter of the
late Mr. and Mrs. John Ackert.
Formerly on the office staff of the
Noxon Company, she had been a
resident in Hamilton for more
than 40 years, where for many
years she was in the office of the
Dominion Glass Company. She was
widely known and esteemed in
’ Hamilton and Ingersoll.
Surviving Miss Ackert are four
brothers, Harry of Rochester, N.
‘Y., Bert of Vancouver, and F. A.
and Clare H. of Ingersoll. A sis
ter, Mrs. J. Gibbons lives in Cold
water, Mich.
Prior to the burial service here,
a funeral service was held at the
Marlatt Funeral Home in Hamilton
on Wednesday evening.
HONOR MEMBER
LEAVING FOR ENGLAND
The September meeting of the
Women’s Auxiliary of St John’s
Anglican Church, Thamesforw, was
held at the home of Mhw Mary
Patterson. The meeting, which was
well attended, was in charge of
Mrs. F. Halton, the acting president
in the absence of Mrs. Alfred Cole.
After the usual business was
dealt with, including the setting of
a date for the bazaar early in De
cember, a presentation was made
to one of the members, Mrs.
Sharpe, who has since sailed for
England. Mrs. Sharpe received a
lovely silk umbrella. After spend
ing two years in Thamesford, she
is returning to<inake her home in
England. x
Delicious refreshments were serv
ed at the close of the meeting,
when a cake inscribed with “Bon
Voyage” was enjoyed.
On Thursday morning, Septem
ber 23rd, a one-minute silence was
observed in respect to the memory
of Stephen Brady, a former student
of the I.C.L from 1942-47. Steve
was a very, popular student and he
participated in all school activities,
especially sports.
Ian Grills, field secretary for Ox
ford, Brant, and Norfolk Counties
from the Institute for the Blind,
talked to the students about the
prevention of blindness. He stated
that the blind weren’t asking for
sympathy but only a chance to re
habilitate themselves. A large num
ber of the girls helped with the tag
day.
We wish to congratulate the win
ners in the field day sports and
hope they bring home some laurels
from the Inter-School Track Meet
in Tillsonburg.
Our Glee Club is holding regular
practices every Wednesday and Fri
day. Miss Dobson states there are
60 to 70 students attending the
practices and that the club will be
in “fine voice’’ by the time com
mencement comes.
Fire drijl was held for the third
time and was clocked under 40 sec
onds, for 280 students, which is
good time. It is expected that with
a few more practices the time will
be under 30. But the $64 question
around the school is will Fire Chief
Ellis give us a half holiday for fire
drill, or will we get a holiday for
the Ingersoll Fair at the same
time, or will we get a holiday -at
all?
Thirty fine-and-fit (I mean brok
en down) boys were out to the first
rugby practice of the season. There
were eight holdovers from last
year’s senior team, tfee rL£t being
players with junior experience.
Mr. Wilson put them through var
ious exercises, of which the worst
was running—everybody for the
next few days felt stiff. It is not
known who Ingersoll will be against
this year, but this will be announc
ed at a later date. The team this
year will not be as strong as last
year’s, but we’re out to win what
we can!
We have high hopes of getting
the Literary Society going so that
the initiation of the first formers
will stark The seniors are racking
their brains to think up some fiend
ish deVices to put them through.

mer vacations, was held at the
home of Mrs. F. G. Jones, 291

Mrs. P. M. Dewan, president, ex

ness of purpose which prevailed in
the organization and of the keen

members.
Interesting reports were given by
the officers and chairmen of com

actively alert and successfully
carrying the work of the Auxiliary.

ber when she spoke of the great
loss sustained by the Auxiliary in
the death of this beloved member.
The members rose and stood in rev
erent silence in memory of Mrs.
Wilson.
A letter from the Opportunity
Shop of the I.O.D.E., informing the
, members that the shop has been re-
i opened and asking for donations of
good usable merchandise, was read.
' The present purpose of the Oppor-
tunity Shop is identical with that
j of the Auxiliary, namely, to raise
money for furnishings for the new
hospital and its success should be
of vital interest to every member.
The president urged the members
to give hearty co-operdtion.
Mrs. P. M. Dewan, president and
■ Mrs. F. G. Rich were appointed

had visited the patients in the hos-
1 pital in Juhe, at the request of
’ Mrs. John Nancekivell, chairman
’ of committee on hospital visitation,
: and had distributed flowers.
In the absence of Mrs. F. T.
J Manning, chairihan of the Library
Committee, the president reported
' that Mrs. .Manning had collected
‘ twenty-eight of the newer novels,
all in good condition for the hos-' pital library. She is eager to re-
‘ ceive many more books.

'worthy cause.

| rollment 6f 871 for September,
1 with 700 at Victory Memorial

i b^th School. The average daily at-
' tendance, he said was 779—625 at
i Victory Memorial School and 154
I at Princess Elizabeth School. TheI principal (told the board that 490
I days were' lost through llness, the
total lost days being 1,54714.
Mr. Murray said this year’s field
day was successful, in spite of hav
ing run into bad weather for the
first time in seven years.. There
i were 1,612 entries in the events,
with 629 taking part. The teaching

great deal of credit for the field

B. Hyde and others. "We look upon

ligious instruction given by the

mencement program will be held on

have in our Public Schools.” A pro
gram of music, public speaking,
and folk dances is being arranged.
"Mr. Luther, A.T.C.M., the new
supervisor of music, is arranging
the musical part of the program.

■ the providing of books and sup
plies for the pupils is working out
satisfactorily. He said extension
courses are being offered in Ing
ersoll by the University of Wcst-
■ ern Ontario for teachers and other' citizens. The new seats, Mr. Mur-
■ ray reported, have arrived and are
’ satisfactory, and he said that the
■ yard of the Memorial School is in
: much better condition since the
excess soil was removed.
Mr. Murray said that the major-
ity of families have now paid the
out-of-town tuition fees for Sep-
ember. Chairman Ackert thanked
Mr. Murray for his report.
L. B. Hyde, the Public School in
spector, discussed with the board's
members the addition of four
rooms for the Princess Elizabeth
School. He said it appears that a
kindergarten room is also required.
Mr. Hyde stated that he had inter
viewed the Department of Educa
tion about the approval of an ex
penditure of $78,200 for the con
struction of four rooms.
The inspector told the trustees
that the present school costs in
Ingersoll are 55.6 per cent of what
the department will pay in grants.
There was considerable discuss
ion about the construction of an
addition to the Princess Elizabeth
School. It was felt that this should
be
for every grade. Factors in favor $85,000.00
of this were presented as increased
population from new sub-divisions,
and traffic hazards for children
coming from the northern part of
the town to Victory Memorial
School. It wag felt that the citizens
in that section of the town are
entitled to have a complete schooL
Mr. Hyde said the construction of
a five-room addition would mean a
debenture issue of $50,000, plus
the carrying charges.
The possibility of having an
auditorium or assembly room in the
kindergarten was considered im
practical and too costly, but it was
thought that such a room could be'
provided in the basement.
Mr. Hyde was requested by the
board to ask the Ontario Depart
ment of Education for approval of
the construction of a five-room ad-
complete school with a room dition, at an approximate cost of
