Herecalled that in 1945 the town voted on liquor, 1,503 saying yes, and 1.167 no—99 votes short of the required 60 per cent majority.“We are not asking the people todecide for or against having liquor or beer in Ingersoll,” Mr. Wurker stressed.“We w-ould be merely giving the people -----, ___ ___an opportunity of stating their own eliminate the long drawn-out affair of mind on the matter.

Bu chanan. town sewage inspector, arein a bit of a tizzy these days won dering just what is the score con cerning Mr. Buchanan. He’s stillsewage inspector, but council isn't sure if they have the right to sayso. It all started Monday night when Councillor Eidt, seconded by Councillor Kerr, moved that since the sewage system had been handedover to the public utilities commis sion there was no need for Mr. Bu chanan’s services, and therefore heshould be dismissed as of March 7 —that very day. Councillor Wurker, asserting thatthe action was too hasty, and sug gesting E. A. Washburn might needMr. Buchanhn’s services, for a short time anyway, moved an amendment that Mr. Buchanan bedeprived of his title, but be retain ed in an advisory capacity as aliaison between the town and theutilities commission for 30 dajs, then be dismissed. With Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray insisting that it was now none of the town’s business; that it was up tothe commission to hire Mr. Buchan an if they wanted, the council turn ed down the amendment, withCouncillors Healy, Wurker and Morrison backing it, and Councillors Ranger. Kerr and Eidt and Mayor Murray rejecting it. Warwick Marshall, town solicitor, pointed out that that didn’t end the matter. There must be a vote on the original motion. With Coun cillor Ranger, put in the position of casting the deciding vote, assertingjt was “too sudden,” the motion was defeated, and Mr. Buchanan remains town sewage inspector.“It’s all wrong,” protested the mayor. “We can’t do this. It’s upto the public utilities commission to hire him if they want him. Thewhole thing was taken over bythem. We have no say on the mat ter,”“Under the by-law passed last week his services passed over to the P.L'.C..” said Mr. Marshall.“It’s all very vague," comment ed Mr. Healy.“Well, you’ve kept him on. said the mayor. “It’s done now. All this motion was intended to do was toclear Mr. Buchanan off our books.” “It makes one wonder if thisshould have been before us at all,”interjected Mr. Marshall. “Well, he’s on our books at $40a week straight through now," said the mayor. “Who’s going to pay him?" wondered Mr. Kerr. “It’s all through. We’ve voted and that’s it,” said the mayor.The vote was—for dismissal— Councillors l?idt and Kerr; against—Morrison.

WILFORD Married in a log cabin, Mr. and Mrs.John Wilford, one of Ingersoll’s moststoried couples, this week entered their67th year of marriage. Mr. Wilford, possibly Canada’s most famous cheesemaker, is 86 and his wife is 88. The couple celebrated their 66th wed ding anniversary surrounded by alltheir children — three boys and threegirls. They are: Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Wilford, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Wilford,Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Ferguson and Miss Pansy Wilford, all of Ingersoll; Mr. andMrs. Fred Wilford, Toronto, and Mrs.Rose Lindsay, Sarnia. The couple also have nine grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren. Told 70 years ago he was too weak tobe a farmer, Mr. Wilford, in *1879, atthe age of 16. took up cheesemaking asa profession. Since that time he hasmade hundreds of tons of the finestcheeses in what is considered Canada's "cheese county”. In 1886. he sent cheese to the Intercolonial Exhibition, London, England,and won the diploma and medal- — so far as he knows, the only Canadian everto do so. He also won a medal anddiploma at the World’s fair, Chicago, in 1892. These medals are among hisproudest possessions. “In 1896 or 1897,” said Mr. Wilford, who wears a distinguished beard. “I hadbeen working so hard I was fainting four or five times a day in the factory.The doctor told me that one more yearin a factory and I'd be dead. So I got w- — ... _.----------out and went home to bed. For one of Bright, both of whom attended theyear I lived on nothing but malt whisky 1 wedding 66 years qgo.' and milk—for a non-drinking man likeme, a terrible thing."When he recovered, Mr. Wilford never did return to regular work as a cheesemaker. But, on special request, he hasmade many special cheeses for variouscompanies over the years since. He isstill consider**! THE expert.

Burrell Item in Tribune Reunites Uncle, Niece After 48 Years An item in The Tribune has re-1 united an uncle and niece after 48 years. The uncle is Mr. John Bradshaw, 85, Thamesford, and the niece is Mrs. George Bird, Ancaster, who was Margaret L. Bradshaw. Mrs. Bird, who made the discov ery, wrote about it as follows to the Tribune: “While visiting my sister-in-law, Mrs. Chas. Bird in Hamiltot), I no ticed a short item in the Ingersoll Tribune, a paper she had received from her nephew, Cecil Smith, of Ingersoll, that John Bradshaw of Thamesford. had written in praiseof the Tribune. “I decided at once that was my uncle I had not seen or heard from for 48 years. I was so pleased I wrote telling hijn -I saw his name in the Tribune. I immediately re ceived a reply, saying Jrow pleased he was to hear from me and for me to visit him at my earliest con venience. He is in his 86th year.” Note To Advertisers Because of the increasing volume of advertising in The Tribune, it is necessary to seta deadline for the receipt of copy in this office.

It reads: “This chain was started in hopes of bringing happiness to all tired business men. “Unlike most' chains, this one does not require any money. “Simply send a copy of this letter to five (5) married male friends, then bundle up your wife and send her to the fellow who heads the list^ “When your name gets to the head of the list you will receive 15,188 women.

Ernes’t Bertrand, Postmaster General—Ottawa, “Dear Mr. Bertrand: “We have seen the letter from your department ordering the closing of the corridor stampwicket in the Ingersoll postoffice March 28, and suggesting that Mrs. C. E. Luno will be then out of a job. “We think you are making a mistake. “We think most of Ingersoll feels that way, too. “By a simple stroke of the pen you are wiping out a tradition— an era in this town. For 60 to 70 years that corridor wicket has served the people. And it is needed here. “There is no mail delivery’- Everyone in this town of 6300 has to pick up hisvmail at the postoffice. At noon and at 5 o’clock the place is jammed. If you take away that wicket and put it inside, you are going' to create a shambles, with the resultant loss of ser vice, intense dissatisfaction among the people of this community. After all, it has worked beautifully for 70 years—why change it now? We feel you can’t lay down a sweeping policy, to apply every where. Each community has its own conditions. “Then there’s Mrs, Luno. She has been there 11 years, and she has probably sold close to $400,000 worth of stamps. But she’s mofv than a stamp salesman, she’s an institution. “She’s perhaps Ingersoll’s best known citizen, and certainly one of the most popular. “She has been a tremendous ambassador of goodwill for the postoffice. She has virtually built the local hospital here through her sale of hospital bricks. She is the mother confessor, so to speak, for thousands, and for any news or any help, it is to Mrs. Luno that we go. “We think the corridor wicket is needed here. “We think Mrs. Luno is needed. “We hope you'll reconsider.

Accept the cup given you with its honeyand its gall as it comes, embalm yoursoul, make within you a temple; be diligent; make others better and happier. —Amiel’s “Journal Intime.” Let’s Work, Boost Our Town That’ll Bring Tax Rate Down Ingersoll’s big news of the year was conveyed •to the citizens in The Tribune recently. It was the announcement of the setting of the tax rate for 1949. Having previously received their assessment notices showing increases, the taxpay ers were awaiting the striking of the tax rate. Now they know how much they will have to pay into the town’s treasury this, year, and how* much more it is than last year. We’d like to commend the council members for keeping the tax rate down. There is evidence each member had economy in mind when the expenditures for the year were considered. It is no easy task to manage a corporation the size of Ingersoll. The members of the council are really the managers of the town for the citi zens. Many of the expenditures are fixed items, which must be paid each year. With the install lion of the new sewerage system and the oper ation of the sewage disposal plant, also the gran ting of money for the construction of the new hospital, there are debenture and interest pay ments to be made regularly each year. There are also numerous maintenance items which must be paid each year. A large part of the taxes paid by the citizens go towards * such expenditures—commitments made on behalf of the citizens in previous years. There are schools to be maintained, and many services which a town could not very well do without This all adds up to the fact that it’s a small part of the tax money which the council has for new improvements in a year - - unless the rate is increased. In view of the increased capital expenses to be met from the taxes, we think f that the members of the council did except ionally well in budgeting their receipts and ex penses for 1949. In a municipality we have a good lesson in the cost of government. We know that everything done to improve our town is paid for by the tax payers. Of course, we know that we delude our selves occasionally by saying that we get a grant from the provincial or federal government for this or that, but we know full well that both those governments have no other pot of gold to draw from other than the purses of the taxpayers—cit izens like us in Ingersoll. In these days when so few are willing to serve their fellow citizens by accepting public office, we think that those who do and who try to render good service should receive appreciation. We commend the members of the council on their practice of economy. We do not think there will be much objection about the increased tax rates, for after all we are paying for things which we, • the citizens, authorized. Perhaps with a year or so of economy, we can find ways to institute fur ther improvements to our good town of Ingersoll. •' In the meantime, the surest way to bring the tax rate down..is for each of us to work for the making of a greater Ingersoll. Let’s show a com- / munity spirit that reflects pride in our town. The \ more we do to help our town to have more houses more industries, and more business places, the more we are going to have to share with u» in the use and paying for of the services we now have and will get later. It’s our town—let’s boost it! What Others S a y: U.K. Engineers Undertake Unique Architectural Feat Engineers in Britain have just completed the first stage of a unique architectural feat in theheart of London. A building of great historicinterest is being lowered intact to a depth of 20 feet in Whitehall. Above it will then be built270,000 square feet of Government offices.They will occupy part of the site on whichKing Henry VIII’s Whitehall Palace originally stood. It is a section of this Palace which is beingbodily removed and lowered. The object is to preserve intact the crypt, dating back to the 16thcentury, known as the King's wine cellar.Relatively modern buildings have been movedbodily in the United States. But this is probably the first time that a structure so valuable and ofsuch antiquity has been dealt with in this way, Jfixperta consider that it is also the first occasionon which a structure has been moved both horizontally and vertically. The cellar has now been lifted clear of its original site and moved intact to one side. Thesecond stage will be to sink it 20 feet and then restore it to ita original position on this lowerlevel. Ten-storey Government buildings willthen be constructed above itIt weighs nearly 800 tons and measures aboutTO feet by 30 feet Before being moved, it was underpinned with girders of steel and concrete aswell as reinforced internally. This has enabled itto bear the strain of being shifted to a distance of 40 feet on steel rollers. It will require-fivedays of careful handling to lower it the required 20 feet. This will be done one-eighth of an inchat a time and 186 16-ton jacks are to be used.This cellar is considered to be rivalled only by the great wine cellar in the Palace of Hampton Court, so wen known to oversea* visitors toBritain. The brick frames which carried the bar rels are still to be seen. It communicated througha lobby directly with the great hall used by KingHenry VIII and Cardinal Wolsey.—U. K. Information Office.A t the Library Remove Broken “Sick” TreesOr Woodlot Loses Value A discovery that will be of great benefit to alarge number of people has been made because awatch maker heard a cricket chirruping as hewalked in the mountains of Switzerland. If sucha tiny insect could .make a sound clearly audiblefrom a distance of a dozen yards why, hethought, could he not make an alarm bell thatwas small enough to go in a wristwatch but yetnoisy enough to wake a sleeper? The upshot of his mountain walk was an alarm mechanism thatworks on the principle of the cricket's chirrupThe cricket makes his distinct and penetratingnoise by rubbing the file-like edge of one'winghgainst the other; the watch-maker produced thesame effect by setting a light-hammer to vibrateagainst a thin metal diaphragm. The result ia' that now, in a case no bigger than that containing an ordinary wrist-watch, lies both the mechanism and the alarm bell. “This new alarm wristwatch,” said R. E. Humphries, describing the dis covery in the BBC’s "Radio Newsreel”, should intithe make us more punctual in our habits, be cause for the first time you can carry the equivalent of an alarm clock around with you.

For Mental Health There is an old adage that there’s nothing either good nor bad but thinking makes it so. Ifthat is so, something should be happening to ourmental health, for all sorts of people seem to bethinking abbut it. Of course, it is the job of psychiatrists to dothis, but they are passing along some of their perplexities to the rest of us these days. For instance, in an informal address to the Family Ser vice Bureau, Dr. H. B. McNeel touched on someof the problems of the psychiatrist. One of themis that as a people we have lost our basic faith and broken our cultural molds, and don’t knowquite how to-restore either. Or it may be thattoo many people expect too much from the psychiatrists, who are too few.Certainly our changing patterns have broughtnew problems, but it has also brought new concern with them. There is a growing appreciationof the place of the psychiatrist in society, even if he he isn’t able to “pass a miracle” every timehe is consulted.In the neighboring State of New York, a meas ure has been introduced into the State Senateproviding for the creation of a state mental commission with a long range program for the diag- nosis, prevention and treatment of mental illness.One of its first jobs and training of psychiatricand other personnel needed for proper care inmental hospitals.Recently attention has been directed at the woeful inadequacy of most public provision fortreatment of mental illness, which claims moresufferers than all the physical ailments together. Perhaps in time we may not only arrange for adequate care of the mentally ill, but may develop a saner society in which there will be less illness ofthis sort—London Free Press.

The Book Club met last Thurs day in the library basement which, for the evening became with the help of considerable imagination, the garden of Shakespeare’s her oine Juliet, where other of his lad ies meet to give Juliet advice in love. Miss Estelle Carney, who di rected, the play, gave a short intro duction.

Thurston Zone For**ter An improvement cutting is madeto improve the growing conditions,the object being to make the woodlot a more valuable property in future years. The management atthe present time determines the composition and value many yearshence. There are many types of treesthat should be removed in an improvement cutting in a woodlot. In order to secure substantial financial returns, trees should be utilizedor cut before they may become de fective. If a farmer considers awoodlot a paying crop, he will preserve it. There may be dead or fallen treesin the woods, still relatively sound.These should be taken out as part of an improvement cutting, as in afew years, through action of decay,they may be useless. Trees diseased or infested withinsects are rapidly decreasing invalue, and in a short time may bevalueless, even for fuel. Theyshould be removed from an econ omic standpoint, as well as for thepossibility they may infect healthytrees. It is impossible to improvea woodlot if disease and insects arepresent to reduce ita value.In many woodlots, trees withbroken branches or damaged topsare plentiful. These should be re moved. The damage may have beencaused by wind, ice, or previouslogging operations. It is easily understood that damaged trees aremore susceptible to attacks by dis ease and insects. In the case oftrees with broken or partially dead tops, growth is reduced due to thesmall crown, making it not worth-vhile to retain the tree. Broken ordead branches in the top part ofthe crown are a sign the tree is notvery healthy.If crooked trees are interferingwith healthy specimens, they should be removed. If the principal product of a woodlot is fuelwood, acrooked tree is as good as a straighttree. However, if sawlogs are desired, crooked trees which may in terfere with good trees are undesirable. Trees with short trunks and large crowns frequently take up toomuch room and should be removed.They will prevent the growth of ANNOUNCEMENT Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Breen.River Road, will be at home to theirfriends, afternoon and evening, of Tuesday, March 15th.

Boys’ and Girls* Clubs Boys' and girls’ club work has come to be animportant part of the extension effort of our de-parements of agriculture. The instruction which young farmers have received thorugh this medium is beyond compute. Many of our successfulpresent day farmers have come up from the ranks of these clubs. The work has proved ita valuein the fields of livestock production, field cropsand for the junior farmerettes in the domesticsciences.The proven value of the clubs in these fieldsgives cause for satisfaction with, the decision of the Ontario Department of Agriculture to establish boys’ and girls’ forestry clubs along a similar pattern. For years reforestation and conser vation measures have been promoted in manyplaces . . . and with a measure of success. Butif the importance of proper reforestation prac tices can be instilled in the boys and girls, andif at the same time sound practical supervisionand instruction in these practices is given, we believe it will be one of the most important stepsin the direction of proper farm woodland management and indirectly in the program of conservation itself. A further indication that the program has possibilities stems from the fact that such action wasrequested by the Ontario Junior Farmers’ conference in. Toronto last January when conservationwas their theme,—London Free Press. At the meeting of the General Hospital Committee, reports were given regarding a suitable site and financial requirements. Mayor Mil ler reported two sites had been exramined, namely, that on Oxford Avenue, formerly residence of Mr. Wm. Watterworth and the Dr. A. McKay property, Thames street south. Rev. James Grant submitted an estimate of the cost of furn ishing the hospital with 20 beds and the amount arrived at was $840; 20 beds at $22, $440; dining room and kitchen furniture, $150; office furniture, $50; operating room, $200. After some discussion it was recommended that the Mc Kay property be purchased, provid ing sufficient funds could be raised. The property would cost ^6520, with 10 acres of ground. 15 YEARS AGO Thursday, March 8, 1934 Mr. and Mrs. O. T. Thorne left on Sunday for Miami, Florida. Mr. Harold Nancekivell, son of Mrs. J. H.

What is the reading ability and what are thereading habits of the generation about to takehold of the affairs of this country, and what willbe the ability and habits of the generations whichwill succeed them? The printed word is the onlypermanent record that mankind possesses asd the future citizens, leaders and followers should beable to understand it,Reading ability is achieved and reading habitsare -formed in youth. They may be cultivated in or realization of an incomplete life.' Readinglater years either through force of circumstancesstimulates the brain, fires the imagination and theinevitable result is that the reader becomes athinker. There would appear to be evidence that modem trends in education are placing too muchemphasis on listening and watching and notenough on provoking thought and developing reasoning. This is a pet theory of Robert U. Brown of TheEditor and Publisher, and he develops it in theJanuary issue of that journal. He warns newspapers that one of the greatest threat* to them lies In the inadequate teaching of youth in thetechniques of good reading. He does not deprecate progressive education, nor disparage stridesmade in visual education, but emphasizes that students are not being taught how to read through failure to make reading attractive. He suggeststhat there is too great reliance on visual and auditory educational devices. Mr. Brown bases his theories on observation in. his own family and in those of personal friends Question practices are developing in the primary■ and comes to the conclusion that present-day ed-schOols a nation of slow, bad readers.—St MarysJoumal-Argus.

Auld Lang Syne Donald McIntosh, of Embro, who has just celebrated his 94th birthday on the farm whichhas been in the possession of his family for onehundred and eleven years, remarked that the .years were at last catching up with him and that:«^ere Just ain,t no *un M^ng on memories.”However, when one reaches that venerable agememories fill the scene. Most of the well-lovedfaces have gone, the old voices have become silent, the sweet scenes of yesterday have disappeared beneath the arches of time—except within the mind. They are memory, and memory isthe companion of age. The moral of Mr. McIntosh's observation is that when we are youngwe should try to lay the foundation of whatshould be happy memories so that when theshadows lengthen we shall welcome our old fam iliar friends and not be tormented by ghosts.—London Free Press.

The luxuries that only the wealthy once could affordare now the possession of all. The delicate lace that was made, stitchby painful stitch by someone's fly ing fingers is duplicated on machines that turn out yards of the filmy ’stuff in the time those fingers tookto make a few hundred stitches.No wonder such work was treasur ed by the woman fortunate enoughto be able to buy it, and treasuredstill more by the daughter orgranddaughter whose heirloom, itbecame.The gateways of some of thefamous old homes of the old world are as exquisite in their way as thelace they sometimes resemble.

It is thework of some man’s clever fingersand another’s artistic perception.It grew, under a myriad hammerblows, from a lump of unshapen iron into a tracery of flowers andunbelievable delicacy and beauty. Another as lovely guards the doorsof St. George’s Chapel at Windsor.I last saw them closed against the light background of the weathered' doors, a picture of wonderful de sign, a memorial to some man'sskillful hands and patient years ofwork.‘ If such gates were used nowthey’d be cast in a fraction of the time, no doubt, but the satisfactionthat the early craftsman had in hishand-made product would be absent. And that is always so, must beso, for there is a happ.iness aboutproducing somethipg, even an inferior something, by one’s own hands,that is denied to the machine tender. That is why a hobby is now souseful, even necessary. To paint,, to write, ,to make something, tocreate from beginning to end, tosee a thing grow simply becauseone is using the skill of one’s ownfingers, the imagination of one's own mind, is truly happiness.The young hobbyist, no matterin what direction his fanpy takeshim, is quite unlikely to becomethe problem adolescent. He’s toobusy, too eager to seek other andless worthy means of entertain ment. Quiet often, too, the interestin his subject develops to such anextent that his hobby becomes his life work. But whether it does orremains just a hobby, it gives theneeded satisfaction that an age ofmachinery and speed is snatchingfrom the individual.

Carr was busy sell ing books, cards and what not when in walked a young lady, who asked: “Do you take contributions for the new hospital here?’’ “Yours will be the first,’’ replied Doug., and the young lady, Miss Audrey Baigcnt, handed over $10. Behind that contribution, however, was a real ^story. Miss Baigcnt teaches, grades 3 and 47"bne of three rooms,at Thamesford public school. At Christmas the school held a concert and the rooms split the take, each room to decide how it would spend its share. “How will we spend our share?” Miss Baigent asked her 30 or more pupils. There was only one answer. “Give it to the new hospi tal; help everyone.” And they did. Ingersoll ConservativesElect Tbeir Officers K. R.

Perhaps theywere counting on him.” “If the commission needs him, they can hire him,” said the Mayor."If the commission doesn't know Mr. Buchanan is being let out, I think we’re putting two strikes on them asthey take over the new job," replied Mr. Wurker.“There should be nothing for them to learn," retorted the Mayor. “If theinspector were doing his job, he will have reports of everything up to date.” “I think March 7 is too soon to askj him to have his report,” said Councillor i Healy.

"I’m here as a spectator—just listen ing," replied the inspector.“I think it’s very unfair.” asserted Councillor Tom Morrison. “It is un fair to him, to the people, and to thepublic utilities engineer, who will have to pick this all up himself. It is toosoon to effect this drastic change. Who knows more than the inspectorabout all this?”Mayor Murray asked Town Clerk Winlaw if he had any weekly reportsfrom Mr. Buchanan in connection with the sewers. , “None,” replied.Mr. Winlaw.“There should be one each week,” insisted the Mayor."My notes are all available,” put in Mr. Buchanan. Mr. Wurker then moved his amendment. “You can't do it." said the Mayor.“We have no alternative."“We had a paper tonight that re quires the signature of the inspector—if this motion goes through tonight, we’ll have no inspector,” pointed out Mr. Healy.“It’s part of his duties," persisted the Mayor. “If the P.U.C. want to hirehim tomorrow, that’s up to them.” Councillor Wurker then rephrased xhis amendment.“You can’t do it," asserted the Mayor. “Rend your by-law."“We can,” replied Mr. Wurker, “andit would be good insurance for the taxpayers on a project of this size.Are you refusing my amendment?” Won't Do Any Good “No,” replied the'Mayor. "Write itout. But it won’t do any good. It’s the duty of the inspector to have thesereports. I know. I’ve worked under one." "I think you're splitting hairs," inter-i iected Mr. Morrison. “I think Mr. Washbum would be a bit reticent taking over this new responsibility alone." “Suppose the inspector died last week ' —then what?” demanded the Mayor. '“That’s a rather unfair question,". thought Mr. Morrison. "It’s like asking Ihave you stopped beating your wife' yet. No matter how you answer it, you’re in trouble. If only for the |protection of the public, I think it’s I too hasty.”“The inspector should have had his' reports in every week—if he didn’t, Ihe's been lax." charged the Mayor. ! Mr, Wurker moved his amendment, stating it was motivated by a desire ito save the P.U.C. from embarrassment, and the necessity of tracking down the i information Mr. Buchanan already hadat his fingertips. "Mr. Washburn has made a generous gesture—I’m tryingto help him. I don’t think the com mission will think we’re stepping on their toes. I think they’ll be happy toget Mr. Buchanan's services.” “Well, let them take the responsibility,” urged the Mayor. “Let them hire him.” HEINZ—STRAINED BABY FOODS HEINZ JUNIOR FOODS STRAINED SWIFTS MEATS SWIFTS JUNIOR MEATS AYLMER BABY FOODS AYLMER JUNIOR FOODS LIBBYSBABY FOODS RENNET BRAND JUNKET POWDERS CHRISTIES HOLLAND RUSKS 3.z%s25c 3 o’tu«2 5 c 2<£&37c 24< 2cz!-1 5 c -FL TINS 1 OZ. tFns2 3 ' 2 pk“23< evaporated BORDENS MUK CLUB HOUSE * RICE FLOUR Z CEREALCREAM OF WHEAT OGILVIEWHEATHEABTS BENSONS CORN STARCH GOLDEN CANE BC222S SYRUP BEEHIVE or CROWN BRAND CORN SYRUP CEREAL—OATMEAL—BARLEY 8 />z a* GERBERS BABY FOOD pkg.’2 3 < WESTONS BISCUITS - ‘ - -w ABBBWBOOT ' 19« FRESHLY GROUND ____ ..PRIDE of ARABIA COFFEE “* * | 'ts?14c 19c 2S£Z7« -Mx 15c W 26 ' 25 ' 19' W e s tons SODAS ^.^‘«;’23« PINE A PP LE J a m s i.^uw ^agS S c S n ow-W h ite CAKE EACH 29 ' PEANU T BUTTER JA L C O K B L & A W JI S L L 16 JA -O R Z. 1 C - COTTAGE BRAND WHOLEWHEATLOBLAWS BREAD CRACKED WHEAT OGILVIE - MIXGINGERBREAD JEWELSHORTENING IN TOMATO SAUCE WITH CHEESE—HEINZSPAGHETTI CRUNCHIE MIXEDSWEET PICKLES ■ LIBBY'S TOMATO CATCHUP PUFFED RICE QUAKER SPARKIES FIVE ROSES FLOURORANGE PEKOE TEA MOTHER PARKERSTEA BISCUIT MIX TILBEST APPLEFORD S FOOD SAVER WAXED PAPER JELLY POWDERSNU-JELL L,MI MeLAREN-S INVINCIBLE GREEN COLOUR TEMTYBICE DISH ';%■ 28c 32c 2ols™s 2 7 c o’z’-’A. 29c .1!-Etl l 2 2 c wo. 14c 7-LB.

Speed Win, lose or draw, the famed Harmsworth Speedboat race at De- jtroit this summer is going to put j Ingersoll in the international spot-, light as it has never been before.Because of this, we feel that every one in Ingersoll and area will beinterested in the progress of Har old Wilson's new Miss Canada IV, which will race the U.S. and Italyfor the coveted trophy. The fol lowing article, written by a local boy, Ted Douglas, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Douglas, appeared in the Windsor Star. By TED DOUGLAS Windsor Star Reporter Ingersoll—Machinists a:c hover ing over work benches and latheshere, us work progresses .on gearsets «and pieces of specialty-made hard-steel parts for the CanadianHarmsworth entrant, Miss Canada IV.These skilled engineers andcraftsmen, some of them employees of the Ingersoll (Machine & ToolCompany, are turning out parts tohigh rigid tolerances for the Wilson boat.At Ingersoll and Gravenhurst, work is now advancing in the production of Miss Canada IV, so farthe only British boat that will com pete for the world powerboat class-ip British Harmsworth Trophy heldby Gar Wood of Detroit and the United States since 1921.The Canadian entry is owned by E. A. Wilson, Ingersoll industrialist, and will be driven by HarohJ fWilson, his son, who predirts that Miss Canada IV will be capable of13d miles an hour or better. (SomeAmericans have said over 15Q, M.P. The latest specifications released jointly by Harold Wilson and hisengineer Charles Volker of Ingersoll and Detroit, give a more com plete picture of what will be underthe planking of the boat, nnd whatMiss Canada IV will look like.Just what kind of power will ramthis heavy boat through the water to what is hoped will be Canada sfirst Harmsworth victory is describ ed by comparing the new enginewith standard automobile engines.Feature! SecretThere are, however, a few’ mechanical -features of the boat whichare being kept “under the hat” bythose concerned with its construction.Wilson has released the first naval architect’s outline sketch of the long, smooth-looking, new craftMechanical work is being done inIngersoll, while the keel has beenlaid and bulkheads are being fittedfor the hull at the Greavette Boat Works in Gravenhurst.Miss Canada IV is similar in lines with Miss Canada III, the WilsonGold Cup racer of fame which nowholds the Gold Cup class record of119 miles an hour, made August 1, last year, at Picton, OntThe Rolls-Royce Griffon engine which will drive the new boat is amore powerful, heavier engine, similar to the Rolls-Royce Merlin en gine which powered Miss Canada HI.Engines On LoanOne of the two Griffon engines,coming to Ingersoll on loan from the Rolls-Royce Company in England, is in the machine shop. Themachining, of parts needed to convert the engine from aircraft use tomarine use is in full progress in In gersoll.The Griffon engine has a powerof 2,500 horsepower, or equal to the power of 25 Ford V-8 car engines. The Griffon weighs 2,050 pounds, or approximately theweight of five Ford V-8’s.The Griffon engine, of a “V”type with/12 cylinders, has a total cylinder displacement of 2,239 cubic inches, or* a total cylinder-headdisplacement of approximately 10 Ford V-8 engines.The Rolls-Royce Merlin engine used in Miss Canada III has a power of 1,800 horsepower and weighs1,550 lbs.Originally, Miss Canada 111 wasdesigned for an American Miller engine of 1,000 horsepower. Whenthis engine was in the hull, the tonlines of the Gold Cup boat weresmooth.When the “Merlin" was installed in the Gold Cup boat, projectionshad to be made on the top of thehull, since the Merlin was a biggerengine.Design Longer However, Miss Canada IV hasbeen designed longer, and wider, tosuit the larger over-all size of the Griffon engine. Miss Canada IV'slines will be smooth and undisturb ed. There will be no cowling covers sticking out of the top of thehull. Miss Canada IV will be 31 feetlong, and nine feet three inches inthe beam or width at the widestpoint. Miss Canada III was 24feet long, and seven feet four inches in the beam.Miss Canada IV, with engine, willweigh 6.200 pounds, while Miss Ca nada HI had a total weight of 4,-800 pounds. In Miss Canada IV, Wilson said he would keep a two-step hydroplane hull contour design because“this type is smoother riding, handles much easier on the turns.”i There will- be one seat in the boat. I In American powerboat racing,there appears to be two schools ofthought on hull design. The “three point suspension" type seems to bethe favorite. Less Resistance In “three point suspension” boats,the bottom of the hull is designed so that two pontoon-shaped floatsextend down from either side of thefront end. When the boat reaches speed, thehull touches the water at the backof these two floats, and at the backor “hfeel” of the boat itself. Engineers claim there is less water resist ance, since less surface comes incontact with the water.The hydroplane design has a V-shaped contour, looking down thebottom of the hull from the forward end. This type cuts the water fromthe point of the “V” or from thecentre.Looking along the sides of theWilson boat, there are two cutbacks in the bottom line of the hull, similar to the cutbacks on an aircraftpontoon. These cutbacks are called technically “steps.”Charles Volker, Wilson’s engi neer, said there is less conversionwork to be done on the Griffon thanthere was on the Merlin which went in Miss Canada III.Discussing this work, he said thebiggest task is the construction ofthe gear box which will convert theengine power to the propeller shaft This gear box in Miss Canada IVwill step up the turning of the en gine on a “two to one” ratio, or“thereabouts.” In other words, thepropeller shaft will turn two revo lutions to every one of the engine.Both Wilson and Volker will not be specific about this gear ratio,which they say is one of the secrets.There are about 15 moving steelparts in the gear box, which will be CANADIAN Headquarters Address Prepare For Famed Harmsworth Race As Ingersoll's Biggest Engine Arrives A young Ingersoll machinist, WalterHdrvey, is doing most of the precision work on "Miss Canada IV.” He is shownat left in foreground, at his machine. Mr.Charles Volker, engineer, and Harold Wilson (right), driver of the “Miss Canada” series of powerboats, examine a - housed on the end of the engine ina cast aluminum case. Gear Box 250 Lbs. This gear box in Miss Canada IVwill weigh 250 pounds, but took 1,-100 pounds of steel to produce. Thegear box on Miss Canada III weighed 150 pounds.As a matter of interest to people who have difficulty in completinggear shifts in a car, using a clutch,Miss Canada IV, as is the case with most race boats.’will have no clutchor change of gears. The engine isalways connected directly throughthe gear box’ with the propellershaft. As soon as the engine is started, the boat must move. Thethrottle is the only control overspeed.This gear box will be lubricatedthrough oil lines running from the engine.The first propeller to be used onthe boat will be 14 inches in diameter, but this may be changed tobest suit the engine after first trial runs are made.The big trick in getting a top running race boat is in designingthe pitch ratio of the .propeller, thegear-ratio of the gear box, to bestsuit the engine. Rudder Cast Bronze The propeller and rudder of the drawing of the gear box. At right, Engin eer Charles Volker stands beside one of the Rolls-Royce “Merlin” engines used to power the Gold Cup boat, "Miss Canada III.” This engine is similar in appearance and. size to the Rolls-Royce "Griffon” en gine which will be used to power "Miss Canada IV.” The "Merlin” pictured above weighs 1,550 pounds, has a horsepower oi 1,800. The “Griffon" weighs 2,050 pounds, and has a horsepower of 2,500. —All pictures from Windsor Star Construction of "Miss Canada IV", Canada’s entrant in the world classic Harmsworth powerboatrace, and so far the only British entrant in the event,is now under way in Ingersoll and Gravenhurst.The boat is owned by E. A. Wilson, Ingersoll industrialist, and Harold Wilson, his son, will be thedriver. The first naval architect’s sketch of theclean, smooth lines of the new craft, is reproduced above. The lines are similar to that of theSvilsons’ boat will be made of cast bronze. There will be two water scoopson the bottom of the hull.

"Miss Canada IV”, now beingbuilt especially for the Harmsworth race will be 31feet long, and nine feet three inches in the beam or width. Mechanical work for the new boat is beingdone in Ingersoll, while the hull is being built inGravenhurst. ' A Rolls-Royce Griffon engine, of2,500 horsepower ,and weighing2,050 pounds will power "Miss Canada IV." The English-made Griffonengine is pictured above, suspendedfrom a hangar. The engine is a “V" type of 12 cylinders, and has a powerequal to that of 25 standard FordV-8 automobile engines. The Grif- the two five-inch exhaust tail pipes.The second water scoop feeds in to a water jacket around the oilcooler. With these two cooling systems, the engine will operate at a temperature of 180 degrees ( a caroperates at 160 k and the operatingoil temperature should be 200 degrees. Because water must pass throughthe exhaust manifolds, specialequipment must be designed with awater jacket surrounding the largetubes. Wilson will have two Griffon engines for the new boat One will be used to power the craft, theother kept as a spare. AU accessory ar* designed so that they canbe fitted in a short time on eitherof the two engines.Mercery Stearin*Steering of the boat will be exactly the same as the steering assembly tn a Mercury ear. These assemblies are made in Ingersoll forthe Ford Motor Company of Canada. fon is designed for aircraft use.Work is now being done to convertthe engine to marine use. The Wilsonshave two engines. One will power theboat, the other will be used as a spare. Both are loaned to the Canadians by the Rolls-Royce concern inEngland. This is Canada’s greatestbid for the Harmsworth. The drive shaft, connecting thetear box and the engine, will be)ne-and-a-ha!f inch solid stainlesssteel. The system used to extend the‘hafts through the bottom of thehull, without leakage, i8 interesting. The shaft is mounted in what isailed a “packing box.” The shaft rests in a set of bronxesearings, fastened to the hull. A arge piece of rubber hose is fitted>ver the bearing assembly collar, and the hull and this assembly i*sealed. The hose is filled with grease. “The water won’t go past therrease,” Volker said.

This first service was** sponsored by the Methodist Epispocal Qhurch and the minister was the Rev. Nathan Bangs. Mr. Bangs was rather a remark able man. He came to Canada from United States in 1799 and while atNiagara attended a Methodist Epis copal service where he conceived the idea that he could be of muchservice to mankind if he himself should become a travelling preacherand carry z religious instruction to the settlers in Canada West, An historian of this church, Mr. ThomasWebster, gives us a fairly good ideaof some of the characteristics ofthis man in his description of Mr.Bangs’ first ..visit to the Falls of Niagara. After a very difficult journeyfrom Niagara on the Lake, up the north bank of the river, throughthe dense forest that covered theheights, Mr. Banks at last got hisfirst view of the stupendous scene.He saw the turbulent waters' of the river rushing down the two orthree mile stretch to where theyplunged in tub great masses, into the yawning abyss of mist 170 feetbelow and then sweep away inswirling eddies and billows to therniehtv whirlpool. The incessantthunder, the solemn grandeur, • theindescribable power, beauty and sublimity of the scene so impressedMr. Bangs that he seems to havehad brought home to him in a very forceful manner the awe and majesty of his Creator. After a journey from Niagaraover the antfient trail, through An-caster and Burford, the preacher rode into the settlement of Oxford. Many of the settlers who came with the Ingersolls were formerly members of the 31. t.Church, but since for eight yearsthey had been in their forest homeswithout any organized worship oi anv denomination, they welcomedthis man and received him with much friendship. The news of the arrivalof a preacher soon spread along thetrails and blazed lines of the set tlement and nearly the entire population turned out for this great occasion and helped to form a religious society for organized wor ship in Oxford. Told who ha was In conducting this first meeting,iMr. Bangs followed his Osual pro cedure. He first satisfied his congregation as to who he was and what he had come for. So he beganhis discourse in the following manner: "My name is Nathan Bangs, I was born in Connecticut on May2nd, 1778. I was born again in thisprovince in May, 1799. 1 commen ced itinerating as a preacher of theGospel in September, 1800. On the18th day of June I left New York for the purpose of visiting you, ofwhom I had heard two years ago after a long tedious journey I amhere. I am bound for the HeavenlyCity and my errand among you I to persuade as many as I can to gowith me. I am a Methodist preacherand my manner of worship is tostand while singing, kneel whilepraying, and to stand while preaching to the people, meanwhile sit ting. As many of you as see fit tojoin me in this way can do so andthe rest may choose their own way.The result was that when he stoodI to sing, they all stood,’ when hei knelt to pray, every man, womanI and child, both white and Indian,| ull knelt down and when he askedI them if .they would like these ser-I vices continued at stated intervals,■ they all stood up.1 Rev. Bangs stayed at Oxford un-i til Aug. 9th, 1801. when he started! on his journey westward over the ‘ Thames Valley Trail, past the confluence of the north and southbranches and the old fortified camp of the neutral Indians, near thepresent site of London and on toDelaware. At this settlement he was treated to the luxury of a bbndleof straw for a bed which provedfar more comfortable than sleeping on the ground in the forest. Thejourney of this missionary over the difficult trail to Detroit and backto Oxford took several months and JOHN CRAY’S DISK TEAMIS FIRST PRIZE WINNERSt. James’ Disking Club held their weekly disking in the newly- decorated parish hall Thursday evening.

FOR ONTARIO Learning to Make Plastics TN Ontario the wheels of industry turn for the benefit of every single-L one of us. Our lathes, dynamos, drill presses, farm combines, tractors, business machines, etc, are producing goods and services which earn dollars. These dollars provide food, clothing, medical care and other necessities which contribute to our security and high standard of living. Every single one of us, therefore, has a very personal interest in the flow of a steady supply of trained workers to industrial plants. These workerswill operate machines which are important to our way of life. We should appreciate, then, the co-operative efforts of government, industry and labour in the field of employee training. In schools and in factories our workers,young and old,are given the opportunity to develop new and specific skills in every field of business and industrial activity. For instance, as in the picture* shown here, every effort of Ontario’s newly-skilled plastics workers will mean better plastic product* — will help to make Ontario a finer place in which to live and work.

Several other Chatham men, including Alex. Green, BruceBourne, and Harold Reynolds, at tended. Mr. Colling said failure of FatherDivine to organize a full-fledged movement here was “a tribute tothe common-sence of Canadians.” The speaker, introduced by Rev. C. D. Daniel, said he was one of thefew Canadians to “see God in his own heaven." “He has no less than 22 heavensin New York alone,” he said.” It is the most bizarre, weird interpretation of religion known to human ity. But it commands the respect of about 50,000,000 people. FatherDivine is a millionaire many times over. He tells people ‘you turn over your property to me and I’ll feedand clothe you the rest of your natural life, and grant you lifeeverlasting after death.’ As some one said, what more can you ask than that?“Anyone who refuses to aid Father Divine, or says wrong of him . his life is in jeopardy. Heproves that religion can be made a racket. He is one of the greatest racketeers of all time."The speaker was thanked by R. S. Foster. Mr. Foster, also chairman of theEaster Seal Campaign, to aid crip pled children, said the campaign,"gives us the opportunity to raisefunds for our own crippled child ren, as well as those in the provinceat large." Ingersoll Lady Tells Of Rioting in Durban An Ingersoll woman, Mrs, Charles Hughes, is in Durban, South Africa,scene of the recent bloody rioting between Indians and natives. In recent letters, she told her daughter, Mrs. R. A. Williams, how they k*pt away from the downtown area while the strife was on, andhow horrible the rioting was. She wrote, in part: “I don’t know when I’ll be goinginto town. This trouble with the natives and the Indians has kept a lot of people off the road. We hadan Indian working here for a fewdays. He said he was afraid to leave his home for fear he was burnedout. The native^ (Africans), broke into their homes and others had to leave everything and fly for their lives."The Mary that brings veg etables here said they stripped herhome; all her sheets and pillows and everything were gone. I have just sent off some papers with picturesof some of the fighting. I guess it was awful.” The women and child ren were taken to a shelter untilthe riot was over. “The trouble, is," her letter wenton, “the Indians buy up all the rice and in fact everything, and charge the natives double the price, likeblack market, I think. The Indianshave some very nice stores here. The natives smashed the windowsand made off with lots of things. One native was caught with a rick shaw full of shirts. Sometimes Ithink it was a good thing it hap pened It will bring the Indians to better terms with the natives orthey won’t buy from them at all."

Westcott: «rtDear Mother and Dad: i“Now that we are settled here at iTampa for the time being, I thought Iyou might be interested in hearing imore details of our trip down to Ithis beautiful spot 1 ."After leaving Buffalo our route 1took us around and through the Al- 1 leghanv Mountains of New York iState, and the Berkshires of Penn- isylvania. This is a very pretty drive. The road is good, but fullof sharp bends which wind through the picturesque valleys, footed bysmall rivers.“Leaving the mountains behind,we followed-the Susquehana Trail,which follows along by the river ofthe same name. Many large industrial areas are located through here, .such as at Williamsport and Harrisburg. Cutting south from Harrisburg, we crossed through the Stateof Maryland, West Virginia, andVirginia, and again into more hillycountry—sometimes called the BlueMountains. They actually have a bluish tone to them, and we wereabove the clouds in some places andcould see for miles in every direc tion. . , ,“We spent a little time around Harper's Ferry, as some of the gunsand bayonets I have in my collection were manufactured and used there during the Civil War. It wasnear here we had our first car trouble—the breaking of a steering tierod, so we just camped right thereand got a new one the next day. Wewere very fortunate that it did notbreak on some of the sharp turns or steep inclines, as we would havehad no control of the car as far asthe steering is concerned. Many Large Wreck* “Proceeding south through Richmond, Va., we headed over to anddown the Atlantic Coast, findingmany camping places along the beaches of the Carolinas. There is a free ferry system from 7 in themorning until midnight to and from the sand beaches or shoals, andsome of the places are very desolate. By this time we were in thewarmer climate and it was nice camping out“Along these shores we saw thewreckage of many large ships,some go back to the days of theblockade running during the slavetrade, others from the prohibitionera and more recently from the war.“I forgot to mention earlier whilewe were camping in the mountains of Virginia, we had a rather frightening experience. AJter we hadhad our supper and bedded down for the night, Erwin woke me up,saying he could hear wolves. I toldhim it was just some farmer’s dogs, but he said he had heard the samesounds while deer hunting in our Northern bush. Then I realized thatthere were no farms within a hundred miles radius. We figured they must have smelled our home cooking, and were coming to investigate.Erwin loaded the automatic and Itook the other gun which they hadgiven us permits for at the border. It was a cool, bright, moonlightnight, and sounds carried for milesin those hills. Between howls and echoes it was hard to judge theirdistance. ’ After waiting and sortof shaking for about an hour, we spotted four of them coming overthe ridge. The howl was followedby a ‘yip’ which sent shivers allover me. Then Erwin let a blastout with the automatic and we haven’t seen or heard wolves since.However, we took a loaded gun tobed with us for quite a few nights afterwards. Kept Down By White* “Driving through Georgia is veryboring and tiresome, as the road isflat, straight, and through a very swampy area. In this state theyhave what they call the ‘openrange,’ which means that the livestock have the run of the land andthere are no fences. If you hit anything, it is just your hard luck.“As soon as we crossed the Savannah River at Savannah, Georgia, we could feel a difference in theclimate, it became much wanner,and we saw our first palm trees. “From Virginia to Georgia is thegreatest negro population, andthey are kept down by the whites. They get from five to 10 years justfor minor offenses. We saw theprisons with armed guards watch ing them. They work on variousstate projects, which are mostlyroad building. Between George town and Charleston there is a different type of negro, known as the‘Gulla’ type. They are blackerthan the other type. The negroesin general keep to themselves, have their own form of entertainment, restaurants, theatres, etc., and do most of the laboring jobs throughout the South.“The main crops throughout the Carolinas and 'Georgias are cotton,peanuts, and turpentine; the latter being tapped from pine trees. A great deal of lumbering is carried on in Georgia. ....“Arriving in Florida eight aaysafter leaving Ingersoll, we campedon Amelia Island. It is fast be coming a summer resort for thepeople of Southern Florida. It is asmall island, in the Atlantic, connected by a causeway. Here wewere told of the vast treasures that were buried by pirates of earlytimes when they plundered the goldladen Spanish galleons from the Indies as they were sailing the GulfStreaYn route to Spain. We wereshown some of the coins whichhave been found. They are gold,and about the size of our silverdollar. They are called ddbloons,du gats, and pieces of eight.“Travelling down the East Coastof Florida we visited al) places ofinterest, such as St. Augustine, Daytona Beach, West Palm Beach,and Palm Beach, Miami and theFlorida Keys, coming around theGulf Coast through Sarasota andfinally arriving here at Tampa- Car* Much Cheaper “In general we find things cheaper here on the West Side than onthe East. Milk and bread are pretty well a standard price all over thestate, milk being 25 cents for anAmerican quart, which is smallerthan our Imperial quart. Bread is 15 cents to 21 cents a loaf, depend- 1 ing where you buy it. Prices here Ion the West Coast are a little ‘ cheaper than In Ontario for meats *and canned goods, and especially ’for fresh fruits and vegetables, as 1 they are all grown right here. Suita <and shoes are quite a bit cheaper 1here, but of course depending 1again where you buy them, Gaso- ' line is an average of 25 cents a gal- 'Ion. Automobiles are plentiful and about $200 cheaper on the 'smaller cars, and $500 to $700 onPackards, Buicks, and Cadillacs. 1 We see lots of new Buicks and Cadillacs, which are not allowed in Canada under present governmentregulations. Another car commonlyseen here, not seen in Canada, is aFord six-cylinder car. There arequite a few European cars, a large number being of British manufacture. These are mostly sports models, such as the ‘M.G.’ They haveit over the American cars for speedand are not mass produced like most of the American cars, but thenagain they are very expensive. “The people here are very friendly. They are very much interestedin knowing where we come from and conditions in Canada. For instance, one day we pulled into a service station for gas, it was getting late in the afternoon and we asked the man if there were any camping places nearby. He said he didn’t know of any offhand, but ter and ride the surf in, but nomore so than fresh water swimmingat the Wilson Memorial Pool in Ingersoll. Even many of the large cities here haven’t any as modern andwe haven't seen one as good sincewe left home. . “We are glad that we got all our papers and visas for entry as wehave been questioned twice alreadyby the F.B.I. and everything found in order. We are told the jails arefull of people awaiting deportation—many of them Canadians.This is a long drawn out affair,we are told, as they are held in jail until it is ascertained whether theGovernment will accept them or notand it may be six months or more before they are able to return forfurther sentence or fine. They havehad a sort of “Red” scare over hereand are checking everyone veryclosely. They check hotels, touristhomes and camp registers; alsol watch people receiving mail fromcountries other than the UnitedStates. We were questioned at the post office after we had receivedCanadian mail both times. “We were given passes to the boat races. These also are verythrilling, they are only small boats Iwith outboard motors and there are quite a number of women drivers as well as men. “The car is still running O.K. took us up to his place, helped uswith our tent, brought us an extension cord for dighta, let us usehis shower and gave us some freshfruit and water. We wanted topay him but he wouldn't take a cent for it. So we left him a bigpiece of Ingersoll cheese. He claim ed it was the best cheese he hadever tasted and wondered why Canadians didn't export a fine productlike that over here if they are shortof American dollars. He said peo ple would pay up to a dollar apound for it. On another occasion,we met some fellows staying at thesame place as we were at LakeWorth. They were down there for the winter from Grand Haven,Mich., and took us over to the ElkClub to play billiards. They intro duced us to their friends, who were really grand cnans. Mix More Freely “Different nationalities seem tomix together more freely downhere than in Canada. Jews andGentiles aren’t singled out, nor arethe Polish, Dutch or German. The Latin and colored people stay moreby themselves. "The main amusement here forthe tourists besides the bathingbeaches is horse and dog racing.Betting is allowed at the track. Itis a great thrill to watch the races,whether we bet or not. Most of the ' —- - ----- -------------dog racing is done by greyhounds though we had to put a new fan belt and at night under floodlights— ’ ” * eight dogs run and there are 10 races in an evening. “Enyin and I have been in swim ming at most of the beaches on the1 Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. It is t grand fun to swim in the salt wa- i very soon.’’ Hardy PlinB /or on last Monday. “Well I think this brings me pretty well up to date on our trip I and the news, and will be hoping' to hear some news from Ingersoll , h frm n Sbippi*s Direct WE SAVE YOU HOKEY (Established 1912) We Ship Ft m Com!
