R. Johnston, minister of theThamesford United Church, saidaddressing the third annual ban­quet of the Dorchester Chamberof Commerce, Monday evening in the Dorchester Community Mem­orial Hall. '“I never saw pictures of themsmiling,” he added.Rev. Mr. Johnston addressed the gathering on “The Mission of Hu­mor,” and he said, “My reason forgiving it is because I believe in it.Humor”, he he said, “is a God­given gift“I think it is just as religious tolaugh as to cry," and the speakersaid it takes 64 muscles to frownand only 13 to smile. “So whyoverwork the face?” Many * humorous anecdotes weregiven by Mr. Johnston during hisaddress. Humor, generally speak­ing, he said, is a double play onwords, which is one of the reasons it cannot be transferred from onelanguage to another. Man, he said,is the only animal that laughs and, weeps.Humor Has UtilityHumor has its utility, said Rev.Mr. Johnston. “If a man has asense of humor, he can often getout of a difficulty which would oth­erwise embarrass him,” he explain­ed. Humor is pretty well dividedaround among the peoples of theworld, and the speaker gave illus­trations of Scottish, Irish, Negro,American, French, and English witHe also illustrated spoonerisms.The danger of humor is that itcan be perverted.

We Still Need $60,000 One of the finest hospitals in the country is presently a-btiilding in Ingersoll. It is the new Alexandra Hospital, and if all goes well it should beready to receive patients a year from this Easter. It won’t be serving only Ingersoll, but the whole or part of five additional townships—North Qxford,West Oxford, East. Nissouri, West Zorra and Dere­ ham. It will satisfy a long-felt need. No money is being spared to make this the mostmodem, best-equipped hospital there can be. And that is as it should be. If it is worth doing, it is worth doing the best we can. This, of course, costs money—a , great deal of money. And the response of the public, industry and organizations of all kinds has been tremendous. Itis a great tribute to the generosity, community spirit,and understanding of the poorest to the rich. But $60,000 is still needed. It is to pay archi­ tects’ fees, and for supplementary furnishings suchas in the laundry room. We know many people have intended to contribute, but just haven’t got around to it. Others want to, but don’t know the proceedure. You can make your contribution by contacting R. W. Green, secretary of the Alexandra Hospital Trust; R. G. Start, president of the trust, ar A. R.Horton, chairman of the building committee, and all of Ingersoll. They will be only too pleased to aid. Let’s do it now.

Smith- Oh, How We Long To Hear Again The Cutter Bells of Olden Times The winter months are a happy time for young Canadians. Skating, skiing, toboganing are being enjoyed now. Not necessarily are they all Can­ adians young in years, for outdoor winter sports in Canada have attracted all who are young in spirit. Canada’s winters are not always as rugged as the participants of winter sports desire. To hear oft-told tales of the sturdy winters of yester­ years makes the more ardent winter sports en­ thusiasts of nowadays wish for their return. One of the most popular of winter sports -Within the memory of many,is all but gone now. It was the enjoyment of cutter rides behind a spirited horse, with chiming bells resounding across the fields. Perhaps the music of the bells is longed for more by those who went cutter riding than a return of the ride themselves. When cutters were much more in vogue than they are today, their owners took the utmost pride in the bells attached to the horse’s harness and the cutter shafts. Those bells added some­ thing to the enjoyment of winter, which is miss­ ed now, by their floating music on frosty air of cutter and sleigh bells. Our Canada still has many opportunities for outdoor sports in the winter months. To those who enjoy the thrills of winter sports, the win­ ter season all too short. Our best wishes go to the young, in years and in spirit, who seek en­ joyment in the outdoors during Canada’s winter months for a full measure of fun. They have found that there is happiness, lively recreation, and good health to be gained. , Fussed About Nothing The dairy industry of Canada is altogether toofussed and bothered about the colour, or colorful­ ness, of the margarine which Canadian house­wives should soon be able to buy. Ottawa reportssay the dairymen will ask for a Federal law pro­hibiting yellow margarine. It may be sea-green,white, lemon-tinted or bright red so far as they are concerned; but it mustn't be yellow becausethat is the color of butter and purchasers may bedeceived. This is the argument of the butter­ makers for a’ ban on yellow coloring matter inmargarine. Their suggestion is a ridiculous which-the Government ought to dismiss.To begin with, butter itself is artificially tintedyellow daring some months of the year. If thecoloring is prohibited in margarine, it ought tobe prohibited in butter as well. But commonsenseindicates that it should be legal for both. The yel­ low coloring is harmless and also attractive. Whitemargarine—or butter—would look too much likelard. Green margarine—or butter—would beunappetising. Let them both be yellow.There need not be any danger of fraud or mis­take. Any housewife, or, for that matter, anymember of her family, can tell butter and mar­garine apart. They taste differently. They don’tbehave in precisely the same way when spread,melted or frying or mixed with flour for pastry.Butter and margarine, colored the same, havebeen on sale side by side in British grocery shopsfor generations. Canadian buyers can be trusted to show the same discrimination.Apart from that, margarine should be sold indistinctive wrappers. Its makers would do well topack in blocks of a different shape from the fam­iliar pound of butter, possibly flatter and broader like boxes of frozen food. It is inconceivablethat any reputable packing house would attemptto hornswoggle the public by offering margarine as butter. If any small dealer attempts it, takingthe trouble to reshape and repackage eachpound, he will be caught within thirty minutes and will deserve full punishment for his fraud.The butter-makers ought to get on with theirjob of making butter and stop worrying aboutmargarine. We predict that the competitive pro­duct will do little or no harm to their business.Margarine will be bought chiefly as a supplement to butter supplies in households which find theycannot afford all the butter they need. The pro­position that these families should be compelled by law to eat white or green margarine, whenthey would rather have it yellow, is the height of absurdity.—Toronto Globe and Mail. Sausage Season With freezing weather and snow on the groundthe hog-killing season in rural Ontario is at itsheight. Hog killing in the country bring back­bones, spareribs and sausage.Of course, every meat market in the nationadvertises and sells “country sausage,’’ and someof it really is worth buying; but, after all, thesuperiority of one kind of sausage over anotheris a matter of individual taste. Like the “peaseporridge” of the nursery rhyme is sausage. “Some like it hot, some like it cold,” as itwere; some prefer sausage in quantity, somewant none at all. But nearly Everyone agrees that the sausage maker who puts livers, kidneysand other parts of the hog besides fat and leanmeat into his product is a cheat and deserves rough handling.Pork sausage, pure pork sausage, should begray in color. There should b? no big blotches of red. This indicates the presence of the wrongkind of meat or that it has started to spoil. Nowand then a piece of home-grown red pepper podgets through the mill unground, but that maybe easily detected.—Guelph Mercury.

In This Battle of the Mouse Our Battle is a Losing One 1 We are open to suggestions on how to catch a mouse. For two months now we have been pit­ ting our wits against one of the.little chaps in our house and have always come off second best. We have used the finest cheese, (from Ingersoll of course). We have tied it on the trap, glued it on, Bneaked jt underneath, just put a ha/d-to-get-at snack on it, made it so enticing no mouse could resist. Nor does he resist. Every morning we tip-toe in, expecting to find a little corpse stret­ ched limply out. And every morning, to date, we have found nothing but a trap stripped bare. We’re convinced he puts one foot on the spring and with the other gently steals the cheese. As we said, we’re open to suggestions. “Sealburgers” In return for the milk, green vegetables anddried fruits which Ontario may send to New­ foundland as between one province and another,we may take canned whale and seal meat, richin proteins and vitamins. Prepared with onions and gravy, whale meat is palatable and energiz­ing. Seal flippers are put up unseasoned andconsidered a supreme delicacy. One effect of this trade would be an improvement in our mutualhealth; Ontario would receive seal steaks more nutritious than beef and mutton and they wouldhave enongh milk and greens to meet their diet­ary demands. Marine meat may be what weneed to maintain our traditional virility, but itwill probably be some time yet before we turnto “Polar steaks’’ and “Arctic sealburgers’’ forour stop-and-drive-in-snack.-London Free Press.

Many a man has failed as a salesman and many a man has lost an election because he spent all his time running down his competitor’s pro­ ducts, or his opponent, instead of extolling the virtues of his own product or efforts. You must deserve to succeed. Mr. L. B. Hyde, public schools inspector and district lieutenant governor of Kiwanis Interna­ tional, ably ■ took this point, with reference to the present world conflict between the ideologies of our democracy and of communism. “You can’t get anywhere lambasting the other fellow’s way of. life’’, he told the weekly meet­ ing of the Kiwanis Club. “We can succeed only by aggressive action in promoting good citizen­ ship and our way of life.” It is so true. Let us not spend all our time, energy and words ranting at the evils of communism. Let us devote all our energies toward making the world a better place for everyone, and by our actions and way of ]ivinsr 8how that/it is best “As She Is Spoke” More than 300 years ago, Samuel Daniel spec­ ulated in the question:And who in time knows whither we may ventThe treasure of our tongue? To what, strangeshoresThis gain of our blest glory shall be sent?Since Daniel wrote, the use of the English lagnuage has indued enriched nations then un­born. But that the summit of its “glory” hasnot yet been reached, it is suggested by the signs observed by Sir John Medley, during hisrecent trip abroad, that English is being adoptedas the international language of mankind./There can be no satisfactory answer to ques­tions about the extent to which linguistic diffi­culties -jeopardize international understanding,■ and -thus tend to promote conflicts. No one willdeny, however, that a common language would enot^nously facilitate the conduct of worldaffairs, and, where there is a genuine desire forpeace, smooth the path to agreement and good will-*-The Advertiser, Adelaide, Australia. It Isn’t Worth The Effort So Far As We Are Concerned Dr. Maurice Ernest, a biologist who has stud- ‘ led longevity for 46 years, says people should— and can live to be 200 years old. He can try if he wants to, but we’re not interested. He says moderation i* the answer. It brings to mind the story of the man' who went to the doctor and announced he wanted to live to be 200. The doctor told him he would have to forget such activities as smoking, drink- ing and the company of the fair sex. “But,” said the man, “I’ve never smoked, never drank, and I’ve never been out with a girlin my life.” "Well, good gracious man,” exclaimed the doctor, “why do you want to live to be 200 years•Id?” Yee, and think of paying income tax that Those Clever Rats . As colej weather approaches, rats are movingin from the fields to be near a feed supply furn­ished. by granary bins, hog and poultry feedhoppers and corn cribs. Rats keep on outguess­ing the farmer, in his effort to eradicate them. They kick traps around until they spring them,then >at the bait. . They avoid poison baits andkeep con multiplying at a rapid rate. If one pairi* around-in the full there will he a whole colonyby spring, if there is not a constant effort to de­stroy^ them. It is claimed that a rat will eat as much as- a hen and give nothing but waste anddestruction in return. Clean up the premises, destroy nesting places, keep traps set, use poisonbaits in different places, and rat proof the build­ing in so far as possible. It is necessary to out­ smart the rat if thousands of tons of the 1948crop are to escape destruction.—Farmers’ Ad­vocate. meeting of the Inger- for 1934 was held at the Inn on Friday.

Three interesting exhibits have arrived at the Public Library thismonth, one to remain a week, onefor a month and one to be part ofa continuous exhibitThe Canadian Institute of Inter­national Affairs has sent a displayof books and pamphlets which will be at the Library until Jan. 20.The Institute has sent the follow­ing information about its work. It was founded in 1928 to help Can­adians understand the complexitiesof foreign relations. Today, it has2,000 members from Halifax toVancouver, and is in constant touch with similar institutes in 14 othercountries. Included in the display are BE­ HIND THE HEADLINES pamph­lets, a series which deals in concise form with such important topics asCommunism, Its Strength and ItsFuture; The State and HumanRights; Soviet Pblicy Abroad. It ishoped that such pamphlets will leadCanadian citizens to a greater in­terest in such problems and to agreater use of their library as a source of facts and ideas.There are also books on India,Palestine, and Japan, and on Can­ ada’s part in post war conferencesand affairs. These books and pamphlets arefor display only, but the Libraryalready has several publications ofthe Institute and others can bereadily obtained for study pur­poses. 170 Beautiful Photo* The January exhibition from theLondon Public Library series is a large one of 170 photographs de­picting the 1 ----- -•* countryside,buildings,schools andthe old andthe people —-------- ...----,Scotland and Northern Ireland. There are groups of photographsof London, of Sussex, of Devonand Cornwall, of Wiltshire and Lancashire, the Home Counties,Wales, Shakespeare’s country anddozens of others. There are manyIngersoll citizens who are findingfamiliar and well-loved- scenes inthis series. The exhibit is too large to be shown in its entirety in thelibrary, but the additional panelsmay be seen in the basement. Stamp* on Exhibit The local Stamp Club has placed in the Library a small show-case ofstamps, a feature attracting a greatdeal of attention. It is hoped to have this case permanently at thelibrary and to have the exhibits ofstamps changed from time to time. At present thfe stamps are fromthe collection of George Telfer,secretary of the Ingersoll StampClub, and are stamps of the BritishCommonwealth. An interestingpoint of the exhibit are two pairsof stamps at first glance apparentlyidentical, but in each case one is worth five cents and the other 50cents. The reasons for this andmany other valuable hints are dis­ cussed at the meetings of the club. loveliness of Britain’sthe ancient homes andoutstanding modernhousing developments, the new occupations ofof England, Wales, Bank of Montreal Assets Reach $2,000,000,000 Mark.

Deachouiu The Economiat of December 4, 1948, quoted from an item in its December 2 issue, 1848, one hun­ dred year* ago, in which it argued for the adoption of Free Trade. I give you a portion of that extract: “Were they to adopt freebetter fortheir increased nations might trade it wouldthem, and in iprosperity other _________ find additional advantages; but free trade itself is a good, likevirtue, holiness, and righteous­ ness, to be loved, admired,honoured, and steadfastly adopt­ed, for its own rake, though all the rest of the world should loverestrictions and prohibitions,which are of themselves evils,like vice «nd crime, to be hatedand abhorred under all circum­stances and at all times.” The world has changed in 100 years. For a long time Britain was the only low tariff country in the world. Now other restrictions are taking the place of tariffs. By war we have succeeded in a hundred years, with all our intelligence, in almost wrecking world trade. Now we are trying to close the market places and do business by long time contracts, a stupid and im­ possible manoeuvre. Brit my friend who sent me the extract attached thereto a note which read as follows; "After reading the enclosed I can only come to the conclusionthat you are a century older than 1 have realized.

Mitchell ahd Mrs. W. F. Newell, when a social time was enjoyed. ■My friend is too flippant in re­ gard to my age. To have written that paragraph I must'' have been at least thirty years old, therefore I must have been born in 1818 and wduld be 130 years old now, and as I am not by any means that age and do not feel like that my friend, in the language of the street, “Is all wet.” Besides if I were so old I would not have been out with the statesmen he men- ions. Statesmen usually—there are glorious exceptions—have no sense of humor. Gladstone wielded an axe, he was an expert in felling trees but no one mentions his sense of humor. One of his political ent* ics remarked: “The giants of theforest must perish in order J.tX a statesman may perspire.” I might take a chance on “Dizzy” or per­ haps on Peel but away with the rest. This is my confession: If I had been there, in England 18118, I would ____.1 - France and spent an evening with Frederic Bastiat Ah, that would have been a pleasure! Bastiat was the great French economist of that period. He had a biting sense of humor—rIIL> “pet­ ition of the Candle Makers” was one of the best satires ever writ­ ten. Once, back in 1934, 1 publish­ ed a reprint of "Economic ies, Bastiat's masterpiece, out one thousand- copies, men, and some of these I were wise, told me that >n have crossed to ST.

The judges were MargeryClark, Don Carrothers and Morley Hammond.The affirmative urged that theradio, reaching millions of people, brought the addresses of WinstonChurchill and the late Franklin D.-Roosevelt, thus playing a largepart in winning the war. Messagescan be sent by radio from shipscalling for help and many lives have been saved.The negative enlarged dramatic­ally on the evils of radio, describ­ ing reaction of children to crimestories. They related the encour­ agement to divorce given by storiesin some soap operas and the nuis­ance of the loud blaring of radios in neighbouring quarters.Mr. Herbert commended the de­baters on their good work, stress­ing the importance of debating indeveloping public speaking. The de­cision of the judges, given byMorley Hammond, favoured thenegative, while the vote of the aud­ience went to the affirmative. Jamts Shearon congratulated thewinners on their success.The second debate of the I.C.I.

The affirmative claimed that thehigh cost of school books was adrain on the pocketbooks of the students and parents leaving themwith insufficient funds, thus pro­moting juvenile delinquency. If there were free text books parentscould keep their children in schoollonger. The rush for books on thefirst day of school would be avoid­ed. The negative asserted the textbooks would not be free but wouldbe paid for in taxes and if the books were free there would be noday off to get books at the stores. A student respects his own booksmore than if they were supplied him free. The cost of a student's books per year is about $10 andanyone should be able to earn thatmuch.The debate was judged by TomStaples, Bill Jarrett and Mac Hyde who rendered a decision in favourthe negative.

A copy of The Ingersoll Chronicle, which was published in Ingersoll, Canada -West, Friday morning, Aug. 10, 1866, was loaned to The Ingersoll Tribune recently, by Harry T. Bower. The paper was published Friday mornings at the office over Mr. McMillan’s Store on Thames St, by J. S. GumetL In an article, entitled “The Big Cheese”, The Chronicle says: “Many of our reader* have heardof the big cheese being'manufac­ tured at the Ingersoll Cheese Fac­ tory by Messrs. Ranney and Har­ ris. It is the largest cheese ever made. It measures six feet eight inches in breadth, and three feet in thickness; the milk used in its manufacture weighed 35 tons, and was furnished by 800 cows; the weight of the cheese itself is three and a half tons. For the sole use of this cheese, a house has been built 16 feet by 18, very substantial, and so constructed that the cheese can be turned over in three and a half minutes. We had the pleasure of inspecting the monster on Tues­ day. Those of our readers who can make it convenient should visit the Ingersoll Cheese Factory and in­ spect this ‘wonder of the age.’ The proprietors, we learn, intend ex­ hibiting this biggest of all ‘big things’ at the Provincial Exhibition to be held in Toronto next month, The cheese will afterwards be sent to England and will probably be exhibited at the Paris Exhibition next year.” Mr. Chadwick ia Busy nearly adjoining the residence of Charles Parkhurst.

A fine assortment of French and English perfumes. A large stock of .hair, tooth and nail brushes, toilet soaps, etc.” The attention of cheese factories is directed to the announcement of James Buchanan, who “would re­ spectfully intimate that he is now manufacturing cheese of all kinds and of the best material.” The hotels advertised included: Great Western Hotel on Thames St., J.
