With it” he toldthe audience, "we will have a place to put industries. We can sell thistown—all we need is a good com­munity spirit"Mr. Wurker said there was anincrease in the police estimates this year to take care of putting uptraffic signs, and he said the peoplehave been very co-operative to­wards these signs.

On a t _ ored by J. V. Buchanan, the mayorwas granted all the time he requir­ed for his address. Mayor C. W. Riley congratulat­ed the audience on the splendid at­tendance. The citizens of Inger­soll have beenyear, he said. - ------ ----- they have put up with, in the wayof dust and rough roads. “Since I have been your mayor, I have tried to put Ingersoll on amodern basis. I have tried to put Ingersoll forward,” the mayor said.Mr. Riley said all councils in thepast have not borne a share of the running expenses, some of which,in his opinion, was false economy. “I have always tried to upholdthe dignity of the Town of Inger-\ soil,” said Mayor Riley. “I tell out-/ aide groups that we have a goodtown, and that it is a good place toshop.” The mayor said Ingersoll needs aggressive councils for thefuture. The town, he told the au­dience, must be sold to industriesand more people must be broughthere to live, to help to retire the indebtedness.The mayor tolti the meeting. about the installation of the sewer­age system for the Wartime houses. A delegation went to Toronto tohave the sewers installed at a 50-50cost to the town and the crown company. Mr. Riley said there wasan agreement whereby sewers would be installed in the subdivis­ion as soon as the town had a sys­tem. However, he said, the sys­ tem was installed at an estimatedcost of $16,000, with the town pay­ ing $8,000 and furnishing the pipe.“We are tapping a new territory,”,he said. “The town has got to ex­ pand in order to pay off the obliga­tions it has assumed.” The mayor also spoke about theincreased asssessment this year,which, he said, does not state that the taxes will go up. The higherassessment, he explained, will as­ sist the town with the new highschool area. When the tax rate isstruck, the increased assessment will be taken into consideration, he added.The selling of the town’s bondswas reviewed by the mayor. “Wehave done well on them,” he said,reading favorable press financialreports of the sale of $310,000 in bonds.Mayor Riley said he had askedDr. A. E. Berry, director of the sanitary engineering division of theOntario Department of Health, tomake an inspection and submit areport on Ingersoll’s sewerage sys­tem. Of the report, which is pub­ lished in The Ingersoll Tribune this -week, Mr. Riley said, “I don’t seeanything in it that is detrimental towhat is going on. You are entitledto that information, because it isyour money which is being spent”The mayor presented statisticsto show how favorably Ingersollstands with other municipalities, in which projects, similar to the sewersystem here are under way. The‘ per capita debt bf Ingersoll, withthe sewerage system and the hos­pital bonds, is $168, while Delhi has a per capita debt of $200. “Itis nice to make a comparison,” hesaid, "so people will not be think­ing that we are put into the hole t°o badly.” The mayor said it mustbe remembered that , the seweragesystem project was voted on by the people.Councillor X. J. Morrison, the chairman of the finance committee,said he is completing 13 years onthe council, for which he has a rec­ ord of attendance at every meet­ing. “Our committee,” said Mr.Morrison, "has tried to do yourbusiness just as if w» were doing itfor ourselves.”Councillor Leo Ranger, chairmanof the Board of Works, said it hasbeen a strenuous year, and an ex­pensive one. "Men have gone totheir graves trying to put the meas­ure through that we put throughthis year,” he said. Mr. Ranger thought the .disposal plant shouldbe put on a paying basis.Councillor L. V. Healy, chairmanof the fire, water, and light com­mittee, said the fire losses have been practically nil, - only $623.83until November 15th, which hecredited to an. efficient fire brigade. There were about 53 fire calls dur­ing the year. Six new hydrantswere installed, making a total of 102.Ingersoll is suffering from grow­ ing pains, said Mr. Healy. The va­lue of building permits issued upto November 15th was >256.910. He said there is fine harmony inthe Fire Department, and he alsosaid that its equipment is second to very tolerant this•‘We know what Councillor Frank Kerr, the chair­man of the health and welfare com­mittee, expressed appreciation tothe citizens.Councillor Russell Nunn, the chairman of the public buildingsand grounds committee, reportedthat the old scale shed was torndown last week, after having beencondemned. A new stoker and a blower were installed in the townall furnace. The wiring in thehall was condemned, and it had to be replaced. "It was a good thingthat we did,” Mr. Nunn said, “ashazardous conditions were discov­ered." The firemen’s recreationroom was paipted, and a showerwas installed for them. About thebuilding, Mr. Nunn said, "Some­thing has to be done, or it is going to fall down."The chairman, Mr. Marshall, al­lotted 15 minutes to the audience for the asking of questions. L.Pickard inquired about the propos­ed enlargement of the Public Util­ ities Commission, which is to bevoted upon on Monday. The mayorreplied that the citizens will vote on the increasing of the commis­sion to five from three members.At present there are two electedmembers and the mayor. "I feel,"the mayor said, “that we shouldhave a larger commission. Thework has been very heavy thisyear.” George Preston asked about thecement around the tile in the flatsleading to the disposal plant. Thisinvolved a discussion, in which thechairman had to intervene at times.Mr. Preston maintained that therewas no four inches of cementaround the tile in the first place. Frank Cottercll endorsed Mr. Pres­ton’s statements. The mayor re­plied to Mr. Preston, stating that sufficient cement for four incheswas put in the trench at first. "We know that it didn’t go aruundright,” he told the meeting. Thefour inches that were put back inthe trench, he said, were definitelypaid for by the contractor. On theengineer's recommendation, thiswas increased to six inches, and thetown paid for the extra two inches.The town’s consulting engineer,R. V. Anderson, also replied to the questions, stating that the tile isencased in six to eight inches of ce­ment, which will stand any kind of. rough usage from the Thames Riv- (Continued on page 7) Third Concert to be Presented Friday , The third in a series . of niusicalconcerts sponsored by.the Music* Branch of the Department of Edu­cation and the Ingersoll CollegiateInstitute will be presented in-theparish hall of St James’ AnglicanChurch on Friday evening.Guest artists for this occasionwill be Mary Syme, pianist; EvelynPasen, soprano, and the Commo­ dores Quartet, composed of How­ard Riddick, first tenor, 'DonaldParrish, bass, John Ringham, ‘bari­ tone. and Carl Tapscott, leader.

Vote On Monday To Help Keep The Right of The Secret Ballot Monday will be election day in Ingersoll, as well as in some of the municipalities which make up the Ingersoll trading area. It Is the day when the electors go to the polls to vote for the people whom they wish to have as the officials of their municipalities for the following year, and when they may be asked to give their assent or dis­ sent to questions of importance in their common- ,ity.,Election days in our country are free of any intimidation. . We do not live in a dictatorship land, where the voters cannot express their opin­ ions for fear of their personal safety. Our elect­ ions are secret, and we can vote in whatever way we choose. Our best reason for safeguarding the system of democracy which gives us the right of the secret ballot to elect our representatives is found in those countries where we have seen that right taken away. If anything, a fear of ever ap­ proaching such a condition, through disregard to our rights, would be a healthy one for us to ac­ quire, since it would cause us to use to the full­ est measure every right that is a part of the greatness of democracy. ’ Every citizen who is entitled to vote in a mun­ icipal election shoud take the time on Monday to visit his or her polling place. In making use of •he secret ballot, the electors are helping to choose the people who will manage the affairs jf their community for the next year, and they are helping to make the democratic system stronger in their land.

Christmas Seals Provide Practical Way To Yuletide Spirit of Giving A reminder that Christmas is not far away was received by many residents of the town and district recently in the form of the annual mailing of Christmas seals. They arrived in time to decorate the Christmas gift parcels and envel­ opes. The seals were sent out by the Oxford County Tuberculosis Association, which has a lo­ cal commmittee in Ingersoll.Christmas seals have been used for many years as a means of obtaining money for the combating of the dreaded disease of tuberculosis. And it is due to the splendid response of the residents in communities like ours that a great advance has been made in restoring to good health many of the people who have been afflicted with tub­ erculosis.We know today that tuberculosis can be cured, particularly when its presence is detected in early stages. The Oxford County Tuberculosis Association uses the money which it receives from the Christmas seals to conduct free chest X-ray clinics, and already 27.000 people in the county have attended these clinics. The associa­ tion has also given patch tests to 7,000 school children. It has three chest X-ray clinics in the county, in Ingersoll, Woodstock, and Tillsonburg. The sum of $8,000 is needed to carry on this program by the Oxford Association. W'te hope that every citizen who received Christmas seals through the mail will respond generously to this appeal. The seals are attract­ ive, showing a little boy hopefully sitting in front of a cheery fireplace where his stockings are hanging for the Christmas Eve visit of Santa Claus. They will give a Christmas touch to let­ ters and gift parcels. In supporting the Christmas seal appeal, we are carrying out the traditional gift-giving theme of Christmas in one of the most practical ways. We are helping to provide the greatest gift that . we can possess - - - good health. With the co­ operation of medical science and the buying of Christmas seals, tuberculosis has become a con­ quered disease. We commend to the citizens of the town and district the generous purchasing of the seals. Those who did not receive a quantity through the mail may obtain them from the local committee of the county association. Contributions of any size will be welcomed, and these will be acknow­ ledged for income-tax purposes. And in buying the seals, or in contributing, let us not close our eyes to the possibility that the service which is provided free of charge for the early detection of tuberculosis may some day be greatly appre­ ciated by ourselves, for none of us has any assurance of immunity to tuberculosis. Attractive Displays Make Enjoyable Window-Shopping In Ingersoll Window-shopping, always a popular pastime, is enjoyed more at this season than any other time of the year. Now the windows of the Ingersoll stores are brightly decorated for the Christmas season. In them, the window-shoppers out for an evening stroll or as they pass them^ during the day, see many suggestions for suitable Christ­ mas gifts. They also see articles which they need in their homes, perhaps something which they have been looking for, or a new gadget which x’ould make housekeeping easier. We think that the merchants of Ingersoll have some very attractive window displays for the Christmas season. Their windows are always interesting, but just now they have the added decorations appropriate to Christmas. The mer­ chants and their staff members spend a great deal of time in arranging their window displays, and we think they merit a word of appreciation for this work. Not only are the window displays attractive to window-hoppers, bat they also help to give our town a progressive appearance. To obtain suggestions for the Christmas gift list, we suggest a window-shopping trip to the Ingersoll business district. This, of course, should be followed as soon as possible by a shopping visit to the stores before the desired articles are all sold. What Others S a y : Merchants Must Be On Alert To Combat Cunning Shoplifters Shoplifting has beconfe rather prevalent in Ingersoll of late. In a few instances, the mer­ chants have been fortunate to recover the articles stolen from their stores, and in a more recent case a merchant received payment, with the assistance of the local police, for a stolen article. Too often, however, the merchant is unable to trace either the shoplifter or the stolen goods. ■ The local police officers warn the merchants of the community to be on the alert all the time for shoplifters. The police are ready to co-oper­ ate with the merchants in apprenhending the shoplifters, j?ut unless they are notified imme­ diately they are severely handicapped in begin­ ning an investigation. Years ago, _the merchants kept more of their goods in show cases, where it was not in easy reach of shoplifters. Modern merchandising, with articles displayed so that shoppers may in­ spect them carefully, has been developed to its present status, no doubt, because of keener com­ petition. The shoplifters represent a very small percen­ tage of the shopping public. Some of them are practiced thieves, who study the layouts of the stores they plan to work in. Some of them work in pairs, with one of them engaging the merchant or clerk in conversation while the other surreptitiously steals the articles. It is against such cunning thieves that the merchants must be on guard. The exeperience* of several visiting shoplifters to Ingersoll recently should convince them and others that this is a good town to stay away from. They have found that the local merchants are on the alert. They have also found that Inger­ soll has a very efficient police department, which co-operates with the merchants and the citizens, and one which is trained and equipped to facili­ tate their quick apprehension. We commend the merchants and the police on the success with which they have matched the efforts of several shoplifters recently. While we hope that these instances will serve as a les­ son to other shoplifters, we also think that the suggestion of the local police for greater alert­ ness on the part of merchants and prompt notifi­ cation to them is a timely one. Royal Heir Typifies Hope For Future Birth of a baby is a great event in any family. Congratulations to the proud parents are alwaysin order. The first child seems to call forth spec­ially enthusiastic acclaim. So the arrival of a son and heir to the Duke of Edinburgh and PrincessElizabeth is a particularly happy occasion.All babies are miracles, and they all betoken a a faith in the future which overshadows allspoken pessimism. The new arrival is in a sensea symbol of Britain’s hope in the future. There is less glamor in the prospects of theinfant heir than there was in the case of his great­great-grandfather, who became Edward VII. As Winstqp Churchill pointed out to the boys atHarrow, “Rule Britannia” has been re-written.The British monarch no longer rules over “the greatest empire that has been."But it is still a splendid heritage, and theyoung prince typifies the Britain that may still be—possibly a Britain greater than the Britainof his ancestors because it has been freed to agreat extent from the idea of domination overwhat Kipling called “lesser breeds without thelaw.” It is idle to speculate about the future whichthe young man faces. Even in comparatively lesstroubled times fortune has played strange tricks on prospective hrira. Neither the father nor thegrandfather of .the new arrival expected in thenormal coun^ of events to succeed to the throne. But the world-wide interest in the marriage ofPrincess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburghand in The arrival of their first child shows that Britain’s Royal Family still has a great hold onthe interest and imagination of a great manypeople, not only in the British Commonwealth,but throughout'.'the world.Political philosophers may be seeking a substi­ tute for the mystical tie of the British Crown,but it is to be hoped that the child born to Philipand Elizabeth will, during his lifetime, see Brit­ ain make a great recovery and rise again, as shehas done so many times in the past from the seaof troubles which n<fw besets her.—London FreePress. On Turning Out a Newspaper The man who-picks up the local newspaper,says the Altona. Echo, a Manitoba weekly, glances through it, sniffs and,says, “Nothing in it," is byno means a rare bird. He lives in every town.As a rule he screens all the editions very care­ fully looking fof errprs, of which we have to ad­mit there are quite a number, and if he findsone—much to his satisfaction—he will be care­ful to broadcast it as much as possible. This isactually- doing the newspaper a good turn forconsequently more people will begin reading thepaper more carefully even if only for the pleas­ure of finding mistakes. Others prefer - to borrow a newspaper, thussaving a few cents. We wonder how a personliae that would run a newspaper. It is odd, but true, that’the general run of mankind cherishillusions that there is no easier job than runninga newspaper. As a matter of fact, we submit that it is one of the hardest. Some people clingto the idea that turning out a newspaper costsnothing. This is an entirely wronjf conception.Think of all the labor that goes into preparingthe copy, meagre though it may be. An unco­ operative public is one of the banes of the news­paper business. If people came halfway andaided the local correspondents in their efforts to make the paper a newsy, inlormative publica­tion, both parties would derive much more satis­faction out of it.Once the copy has been prepared then the realtask begins; setting the type, running the press, making up the forms, doing the hundred andone things around the office—until finally thepaper is ready and mailed to the various sub­scribers. Getting out a newspaper, regardless of howsmall it is, means everlasting vigilance, judgment, discretion and acquaintance with everybody,mechanical skill, a thick head, muscular legs, thepatience of Job, the wisdom of Solomon and thefaculty of smiling when /ou don’t feel a bit likesmiling.—St. Marys Joun al-Argus.

Prices and wages have continued their upwardprogress. Gross production in Canada, which wa* valued at $13^i billion in 1947, is likely to exceed $15 billion in 1948. EXTERNAL TRADE Twelve months ago we were in the midst of a crisis in trade and exchange. To meet that crisis, and after the greater part of our foreignexchange reserves had been used up, the Canadian Government imposeddrastic emergency restrictions on imports of merchandise and quotaswere designed particularly to cut down our imports from the United States. Not only has this been accomplished over the past twelvemonths but we have also had welcome evidence of the improve­ment of production in the United Kingdom and other Common­wealth countries in the form of substantial increases in our imports from those areas.Much ny>re important in meeting the exchange crisis than thesesignificant shifts in imports has been the great rise in our exports tothe United States. Increased prices for paper and base metals and the removal of the embargo on cattle exports have ail played their partsin bringing about the change. The striking result has been that inSeptember we achieved a moderate credit balance in our mer­chandise trade with the United States. • COMMONWEALTH MARKETS Another sector of our trade is also subject to drastic change. Bciore the war, preferential tariffs gave us access to Commonwealth nsttket*and many branch plants were established in Canada to take adMtitageof the opportunities offered. While not large in total, theserparketswere of great importance for some of our manufacturing taSustries.Whatever the future of the British preference, it is unlikciffihat our pre-war overseas markets for manufactured products wiU Le main­tained, without serious modification. It is vital therefore, that we should try to enlarge our markets in the United States, as wellas in other countries, not only for food and materials but formanufactured goods as well. Efforts in that dircctk^fhave alreadyproduced encouraging results. PRICES AND COSTS There have been some faint signs that the gnat rise in prices maybe drawing to an end but they are by no means condftsivc. Temporarysurpluses have appeared in a number of consumer*? lines, particularly in the United States. World crops of better than normal size havebrought a few realized or prospective declines iff agricultural prices.So far such surpluses have soon been dispersed *dd there has been no contagious price decline. Some slight easing ol food prices has takenplace and it may extend farther. It would bfifaelcome relief to theconsumer. It is to be hope<%that the Government, in the presentcircumstances, will not continue longer than absolutely neces­ sary the restrictions on imports which Ore limiting the supplySOME ^pHIEVEMEfTTS For the first time in years there have beeojubst.intia! discoveries of new resources. The opening of the Uduc and Redwater oilfields inAlberta will have advantages agtl early results in our foreign exchangeposition. 3 It is also worthy of note iliat immigralkm has again been flowingto this country in substantial volume. Mare than 100,000 immigrantswill probably enter Canada in 1948. Thef are a welcome addition to our workink force. BANKINfl OPERATIONSIn all this activity, the chattered biiks have played their part. With the rise in incomes and jjusinessgictivity, bank deposits have risen throughout the year. Mopth by fl non th the "inactive” noticedeposits, which represent genuinqsavinffRnther than spending deposits,have increased. Current loans tp the poblic are tending to increase asare also other loans. In contriit, gojKrnnient borrowings from the Banks arc tending to decrease. Bonkingresources are thus being drawntoward the financing of business aqd a«Sy from the financing of govern­ment. Higher prices, as well as gmatcfvolumc of business, have neces­sitated greater working Capital op Ae part of primary producers,manufacturers, and wholesale and crfail distributors, and the banking system has been able to supply it.' , SOME GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS The high level of business activity should promote prudence ratherthan overconfidence and indiscretion. The final stages of a boom are usually marked by difficulty in financing projects which firms havealready begun and in which they have invested their own capital. Thisis a time in which to exercise care that the financing of project* at thepresent day level of costs are fully assured before buxines* firms commit themselves to them. Any firm whose working slocks are higher thanare required to service' their sales is taking unwarranted risk* at thepresent level of prices.In many respects Canadians find themselves in a very fortunate position. Great resources, an intelligent population with practicalcapacity, stable democratic institutions, and goxl relations with ourneighbours afford great opportunities. Let us make the most of them never forgetting that this takes courage, tolerance and good aense. Believing also, as we do in enlightened free enterprise which hasbeen responsible for the greatest progress the world has ever known and the highest standard of living and happiness man has ever achieved,it behooves every indivi-hi-dAo d , utmost to uphold that system and be prepared to fight for it if necessary if we arc to keep faith withour heritage. The consequences of any other form of governmentunder which our cherished rights of individual freedom and liberty would be replaced by a form of totalitarianism or dictatorship are tooawful to contemplate. “HOBOS’ HANGOUT” SOCIAL FOR A.Y.P.A. tne iownsniji The m--e-m--b--e-r~s -o-f -St. -J-a-—mes’ -C--h-u-rch will hear any - A.Y.P.A. really outdil| themselves. . in rlr/»uaincp im n«. tramna nn.

Watson asked why thecontractors were allowed to go a-head and put in the sewer when itwas not rightMr. Anderson, going to themicrophone, explained that there were four outfits working last No­vember, in wet weather, and therewas only one inspector. “I couldn’tbe every place at one ” v -. said. “The line was quickly.”"We condemned it and issuedthree letters refusing to accept it,but it was too late in the season todo anyhing,” said Mr. Anderson.The work was done this past* sum­ mer, and the line Jias now beentested with pressure. "I know itml stand,” the engineer said. Mr.jBderson told the meeting that it\\» a difficult thing for any town "toJJackie a project as large as this,'and he spoke of the amiable rela­tions with the contractors. He toldthe audience that the contractorswere rigidly held to their tenders. The chairman, Mr. Marshall, announced that three minutes eachwould be given to the nominees toaddress the audience. Dr. Murray, nominated for mayor, said he feltit was an honor to be proposed forthat office. W. C. Watson said heI did not think h<T would stand for I| the office of mayor."I have already announced thatI am going to be a candidate forthe office of mayor,” Mayor Riley told the audience. “I have tried tohelp make Ingersoll a better placeto live in, and to do the greatestgood for the greatest number.” L.V. Healy announced that he wouldqualify for the council. ThomasMorrison said, “I intend to run forcouncil. I would like to remain because I am deeply intrenched inthe sewerage project;” RussellNunn said. "I have decided to stay with the ship. 1 have been on thecouncil for four years.”L. H. Snider, K.C., said he feltthere should be a lively interesttaken by every public-spirited citi­zen in municipal affairs. "I think. that the reason more don’t offertheir services is. because they are subjected to undue criticism. I donot see anything to be gained bygoing into the past and digging up and throwing mud around. To mymind, the big issue is how to workfor the future and bring the taxrafc down. We can do it by bring­ing in new industries and getting more people to live here, to sharethe burden. We have got to goout and sell our town. I am hear­ tily in favor of the idea of a townmanager.”George Preston said if there isno criticism, one gets no place. Hecriticized the council for asking theI citizens to sign up for sewer con-j nections when men here would doit at a lower cost. Michael Murray I said he did not intend to stand for |election. S. J. Smith said he wasundecided. Lloyd Brown congrat­ ulated the council on the wsrk ithas done this year.Glen Tonham said he would not say whether or not he would stand."I like the town, and I expect tolive and die here.” He was not agreed on the taxing of the church­es for the sewer connections, feel­ ing that this cost should be distrib­ uted over the whole town. "Ourtown.” he said, “would not be worth living in without the church­es.” X. E. Pembleton said he had nointention, of seeking any publicoffice. Robert Wark also said hewas not seeking an office. Mayor Riley was given threeminutes to reply to the speakers. He said the town had never forcedanybody to have the sewer connec­tions made by the contractors. C. A. Love, representing thePublic Utilities Commission, re­ gretted a lack of interest in thatbody, also that it was "shoved tothe far end of the meeting.” Mr.Love, who said he has been a mem­ber for eight years, did not think Ingersoll needs a five-man commis­sion. The increase he said 'will costanother $750, adding that threemen have been able to do the workin a practical way. Mr. Love reported increased con­sumers for hydro services, and hestated that the P.U.C. has -provided service for the sew'erage system.Two secondary extensions ' were made to serve new domestic con­sumers. Capital expenditures dur­ing the year included . a total of $7,730. Mr. Love said the commis­sion is free of debenture debt, and'he Xelt that it will show a 'largeroperating surplus at the .end of1948 than for 1947.Improvements have been madeduring the year to the waterworksdepartment, Mr. Love reported. Aconsiderable number of jiew con­sumers have been added. A newdeep well near the old -punlphoiujt on King St. West was put into op­eration, but the water has a sul­ phur taste.' Arrangements, fie said,have n«rw been made for the in­stallation of a. new pump of larger capacity in the old pumphouse. Incase that the springs are not ableto supply additional water, said. Mr1.Love, it is planned to aerate thewater from the new deep well so that it can be used in an emergdn- time,” helaid very THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, DEC. 2,1 ^g e 7 ARTIFICIALFLAVOURINGS ASSORTED 2-OZ.

Buchanan congratulated i the Ratepayers’ Association on an «awakened interest, "making this i grand meeting.” He condemnedthe association for one of the things that make men decide not toaccept public office, the casting of innuendoes. "I want them to purgesome of the members who cast as­persions,” said Mr. Buchanan. “I feel that for four years, Mr.Mayor, you have neglected yourcheese business for Ingersoll, whilethe rest of us tended to our ownbusiness.” Mr. Buchanan toldMayor Riley, He said the councilis not responsible for the seweragesysteirt and the hospital costs, as itonly did what the people asked itto do. Mr. Buchanan asked themeeting to tender a vote of thanksto the mayor and the council."They have done their best forthis corporation.” Hearty applause greeted Mr. Buchanan’s requestMr. Buchanan warned that Ing­ ersoll should undertake no morecapital expenditures, with an in­debtedness of one million dollars now, for a few years, unless thereis an absolute necessity.

Report Ontario Department of Health SANITARY ENGINEERING DIVISION Municipality Ingersoll. Date of inspection November 10 and 11, 1948. Re Municipal Sewerage System. Field Inspection by E. W. Johnston.Report by E. W. Johnston This inspection was made as a review of progress, and in reference to additional costs involved in the construction of the new sanitary sewerage system for Ingersoll. GENERAL The proposal for the construction of a sewer system and sewage disposal plant endorsement of the tax payers of the -town by a vote before the project wasthis, the municipal authorities retained the services of a firm of consulting engineers to bring in a report and prepare plans fot the work. , , __-rApplication was subsequently made to the Department for approval of the construction of thesvstem. Preliminary approval was made by the Department under date of July 31st, 1947 for the expenditure of $700,000.00. Construction work was started on August Uth, 1947.Under date of August 25th, the Department issued a mandatory order. This was necessary to expedite the work since a regular money by-law was not voted on.Under date of April 16th, 1948, the Department issued an approval certificate covering the worK for which the preliminary approval had been granted. STATUS OF WORK At this time the work on the system was nearing completion. Some construction work was going on in connection with a wartime housing project. There was still some work to do at the sew­ age disposal plant One of the two sewage pumping stations was ready for operationas soon asthe electric wiring was connected.. The work of installing the pumping equipment at the other ac­tion was under way. There were also sections of roadway to be repaired or replaced although a considerable part of this had been completed. ,The inspection showed that the sewerage system had been constructed with the exception of afew minor changes in accordance with the plans submitted to the Department. There had also been some additional sewers laid on King Street East and the section serving the wartime housing areawas in addition to the original proposal. A sewer was laid in Duke Lane which was an addition to the original plan. ...There was a deviation from the original plan on Bell street. A new pavement had been put down within the last few years and in order to avert damage to this, the sewer was laid throughthe property on the north side of the street. The proposed sewer at the north end of Thames streetfrom Waterloo street to the town limits was not installed. The installation on Inkerman street was also omitted from George street to Mutual street On Anne street from Wonham to 90 west of Oxford the proposed sewer was not installed.-The above indicates the main additions and deletions in variance .U'ith the original plans. There was also an increase in the number of house connections over the original number proposed. FIVE SEPARATE CONTRACTS / Local topography and contours of the sewer design provided a natural division of the areainto three main sections. Accordingly this work wa* divided into three contracts and a fourth contractwas let for the sewage disposal plant. Following this a separate /ontract was let for the system for the wartime housing project and another was let for paving. *The contracts and contractors were as follows: /Contract * ............

This involved a great amountof timber shoring and in many .instances the lumber hadjf.o be left in the trenches. The contractprice for lumber was $150.00/MjThis price included the,glutting, bracing and installation of this material. The cost for lumber was a major tact or jn vne increased costs of the work.For example on Victoria sttvet—200 ft. of 15” sewer was laid at a cost of $925.00. Thisordinarily would have been the cAt of this sewer. However 3615 F.B.M. of lumber had to be leftin the trench which cost at $15(flM (cut and installed®-—$542.25.

Engineering and Inspection .....................................Final Total (Estimated) ......................................... ‘^UMMARY From the observation made and the information available the additional costs for the con­struction of the sewer, system and sewage disposal plant were On actfohnt of several factors as indi­cated above. One important cause of increased costs appeared to be the soil conditions which wereunusual. This involved loss of timber which had to be left in the sewer trenches and this also re- <suited in pavements and roadways having to be replaced. There were also some additions to the sewer system including an extension on King St. east,and also the sewers installed for the wartime housing area.One additional cost amounted to $3,750.00. This was for encasing the outfall sewer along theriver flats which is below river level. The work was completed and then rejected by the engineer. Th contractor had used a 4 inch concrete covering and when it had been improperly laid it had tobe replaced. The cost of the replacement was paid by the contractor. However, before the re­placement was made, it was derided to increase the thickness of the concrete to 6 inches and thecontractor was allowed $3,50.00 for this. In two areas there were existing storm sewers carrying sanitary wastes and rather than breakup existing pavements to install sanitary sewers the existing lines were connected into the systemby construction of drop manholes. These connections brought -in two areas where sewerage servicewas not initially planned.There was also some advance in steel prices which added to the'Construction costs at the sew- age disposal plant and pumping stations. Some additional dost was involved in building one of thepumping stations. The location of this is at the side of the highway and in front of the newly\ constructed swimming pool. To conform with the surroundings this station was built under-ground. There was also the additional cost of the increased number of service connections which wereinstalled. CONCLUSION $ 90,000.0038,000.002,000.00 45,000.00175,000.00$886,457.77 The increased or additional coats were due to the factors indirated above. The contracts nro-Ided for unforeseen conditions encountered in Inerersoll. The fact that no workmen w»re iniuredthe construction of this project is an indication that timber left in the sewer trenches Was in thewts of safety to workmen, materials and equipmentsie inspection showed that the construction appeared to have been carried out in a workman-^n er and in accordance with the plans and specifications of the contracts, as well a* worn." th the standard practice. All of which is respectfully submitted, A. E. BERRY, Director Sanitary Engineering Division. MUSI 89 TP A lucky draw was held, the win­ners of the prizes being W. A.

The programwas closed with the singing of "O Canada."The chairman introduced theguests. Songs were led by Bruce McMillan of Woodstock, and vocalselections were contributed by theCourt Girls’ Trio of Woodstock. Mr. Osborne, the speaker, wasintroduced by Mr. 'Pittock. Thetheme of Mr. Osborne’s address was “Give Yourself a Talking To." iHe said the purpose of the meetingwas to try to recapture and develop 1 safety to prevent disability and'heartaches. Accidents, he remark­ed, reduce efficiency and, apart, from the victims themselves, have abad effect on fellow workmen.Mr. Zurbrigg expressed thanks to Mr. Osborne for his address. R.N. Shanks of Sarnia, the chairmanof the Western Ontario Division,said it was an honor to be a mem­ber of an association that prevents:accidents. He said 80 per cent, of jaccidents are caused by humanfailure, and ne urged that moreshould be done to make every worker more acaident-cpnscious.

DORCHESTER NATIVE PASSES IN WEST ZORRA Embro—Mrs. George Whittaker, who died on Wednesday last at herhome on the 2nd concession ofWest Zorra, was formerly Emily Sophia Robbins, a daughter of thelate Mr. and Mrs. Peter Robbins. She was born at Dorchester andmarried in 1900. For 14 years shelived at Mossley and Dorchester, moving to West .Zorra 36 years ago.She was an active member ofKnox United Church here. Mrs. Whittaker is survived byher husband, four sons, Garnettof Hensail, John of West Zorra, Joseph and Alexander at home;three daughters, Mrs. William (Mabel) Collins of Seaforth, Mrs.Lari (Myrtle) Collins of Clinton,Mrs, William (Ethel) Griffin ofLondon; three sisters, Mrs. SarahO’Connor of Forest, Mrs. JamesThompson of Dorchester, Mrs. W. J. Murphy of London, and a brother,Elgin Robbins of Wilton Grove.One daughter, Mrs. Alfred Budden.died eight years ago. There are 24grandchildren.The funeral service was held atthe Fleuty Funeral Home on Sat­urday afternoon, conducted by Sanitary sewers are defined as those that carry domestic sew­age only from residences or business premises. In practically allcases the volume of waste water flowing out of a house or buildingis equivalent to the volume of fresh water received from the townwater system. The average size of house connection for deliveringwater under pressure is a %" diameter copper pipe, and the usual size of house sewer connection for carrying the waste water awayby gravity is a 4” or 6” diameter sewer pipe. The largest volumethat enters a single sewer connection at any one time is generally the 2]£ gallon discharge from the flushing of water closets. Onwashdays the accumulated discharges from laundry tubs increasesthe average flow. The size of sanitary main sewers on the streets is determined by the total number of house connections along those streets, pres­ent or future. Where main sewers from a number of streets joininto a single trunk sewer, the size of the trunk sewer is determined by the estimated total volume to be received from all the contri­buting main sewers, and from the calculated velocity of flow asdetermined from the slope of the sewer. The smallest size of mainsewer used on short streets with ample slope in Ingersoll is 8”,and the largest size of trunk sewer is 18”. STORM SEWERS Storm sewers are defined as those that carry away surfacedrainage in the form of rain or melting snow. The volume ofstorm water to be handled depends on the intensity of the rainfall, the rate of the Spring thaw and the nature of the run-off area.Paved sttreets and compact roof areas and steep slopes will con­tribute a much greater volume of run-off to a storm sewer than the equivalent area made up of flat lawns or park land. Storm water isgenerally collected from eavestroughs and downspouts of housesand buildings, and from open ditches, gutters and catchbasins on streets. The volume of storm water may be very great, dependingon the area drained and the intensity of the storm. The sizes ofpipe used for storm sewers are always much larger than those usedfor sanitary sewers, with 12” diameter usually considered a mini­mum, and 18”, 25”, 36” and even 48” commonly used. COMBINED SYSTEM Where one set of sewers is used to carry both saniage and storm water, it is called a combined sewer systa SEPARATE SYSTEM Where sanitary sewers are kept distinctly storm sewers, it is called a separate sewer systestem which has been constructed in Ingersollessential for the proper operation of the p sewage treatment plant.

The trunk sewer therefore has double the capacity itwill be required to handle, even under maximum conditions. Inother words, it will be flowing only half full for normal flow with a town population of 10,000. The present population of Ingersoll is under 7,000. Similar calculations could be made for other nipesizes throughout the system. Most sewers will flow from a third totwo-thirds full. They will be adequate for all flows as long as stormwater is kept out of the sanitary system. R. V. ANDERSON, Consulting Engineer.

Mr. Ackertsays the line was eventually built to 1 St. Thomas, Ingersoll gave the rail- ; way a bonus of $50,000, and whenit went out of business the town took bonds to that value, whichwere redeemed several years Itwhen the line was taken over the C.P.R.

THE SALVATION ARMT Ingersoll Co s 5 10.15 11.00 Campus Comments by J.B.K. The rugby season ended with thesenior game against Tillsonburg being postponed and the juniorstieing the St Marys team. Mostof the seniors were disappointed that their game was postponed,since we wanted to revenge the de­ feat suffered at the hands of Till­ sonburg. We’ll do it next year forfun for sure. Here is our famous senior team: Snaps, Dennis Henley, Allan Chamberlain; insides, GlennWard, Babe Morello, Ted Boon, Jack Mahoney; middles, John Walsh, Dick Flenniken, Don Car-rothers, Harold Crellin; ends, Roy Land, Jim Barker. Don Beno, Har­old Catling, Mike Kirwin, Bill Kerr; quarters, Tom Staples, Ron Massey (co-captains) s flyingwings, Bruce Fraser, Gareth Dav­ is, Bud Garton; halves, Leo Con­ nor, Carman Mott, Joe Kurtzman,Jim Waring, Gordon Hinge, Bill Jarrett. We will lose some of our seniorswho will graduate from fifth form, and we've lost Ron Massey who stopped school. Providing no othersleave school, we should have a stronger team next year. The team won three and lost two, beatingNorwich twice and St. Marys sen­ iors once. Tillsonburg defeated usonce and in the return game with St. Marys we were defeated. Bark­er, Connor, and Kurtzman each collected 15 points during the sea­ son. Catling got five, Massey sev­ en. Jarrett kicked a single, and Land place-kicked the only convertof the year. Let's win more next year, eh gang? Enough about the seniors—the junior team put up a good fightagainst the St. Marys juniors. Af­ ter being defeated in the "Bells”town, a weight limit was imposedto make things more even. With a week’s haul practice and the 145-pound weight limit, our juniors were out to win. A fast-breaking"T” formation was their weapon, and our fleet backs were breaking all 100-yard records. The team./metSt. Marys and drove them back, but fumbles almost lost the game. St. Marys’ kicker booted • the ball out after Mitchell kicked well over the line in the dying minutes of thegame. The game ended 0-0, *a scoreless tie. However, all playersgained much valuable experience and some of them will be seniors next year. Mitchell once ran 25yards for one of hjs better plung­ es; Pittock took a- reverse fqy 35yards, which finally worked afterthree attempts; Redhead placed well on the offensive. Five players were used on defense alone andfive for offense? Thus the team had out the best tacklers and ball car­ riers at all times. The names of our future seniors who tied the St. Marys squad are:Snap, Pole; insides, Ackert, . Har­ris, Williamson, McKee; middles, Hooper, Moyer, Kirwin, Petrie; endf Beno, Kirwin, Longficld, Martine!!; quarters, Douglas, .Tur­ ner; flying wings. Montgomery, Pittock; halves, Palanik, Newell,Rawlinson, Mitchell, Redhead, Gal- pin; coaches, John Walsh and Joe Kurtzman, who did a fine job ofmolding the juniors into future stars of the I.C.I. Now we say good-bye to footballfor this season. It’s been fun play­ ing rugby, but time to say hello'tohockey and basketball seasons.I almost forgot to mention that the school had a holiday on Friday on account of the birth of a son tothe Princess.
