Many Lose Whole Herds
Daniel Tells House, Asks
More for Cows Destroyed
Greater compensation to farmers and dairymen for cattle destroyed as T.B. reactors was urged by K. R. Daniel, M.P. for Oxford,
in the House of Commons March 9.Revealing that many Oxford farmers had lost complete herds
following government tests, Mr. Daniel pointed out that, although the
prices of beef had risen over the years, the compensation for cattle
it was necessary to destroy had not. He urged that any boost be made
retroactive, to aid Oxford, Perth and Middlesex East dairymen.
Mr. Daniel also asked the government to “lift the blockade of
Ingersoll” caused by long train stops on the Thames St. crossings.
He* also assailed the method of collecting radio license fees, chargingthat many an Ingersoll housewife had been “scared half out of her.
wits” by inspectors’ visits.“These people are no respecters of persons," he said.
Pleads lor 'AgedFollowing is a partial text of Mr.
Daniel’s speech:
”1 shall first say a word on behalfof the old age pensioners in my con
stituency. These old age pensionersare in destitute circumstances since the
cost of living has increased to its present high level. This is a situation
which has developed more throughgovernment policies than anything else.
The pensioners are caught between the
anvil of a fixed income and the hammerof increasing food, rent and clothing
costs; in short, the increasing cost ofliving. The same thing might be saidof all Canadians in the lower-income
brackets. Their incomes have not increased at the same pace that the cost
of all the things they have to buy has
increased.“The government has permitted this
situation to continue and snowballdown through the years despite the
fact it has had record surpluses, and
despite the fact that it could have madeother adjustments in income-tax levels,
which -would have brought some measure of relief to Canadian workers. It
would appear that now some consideration is forthcoming, but the tragedy
of it is that it is coming in an electionyear. No matter how the governmentmay seek to interpret it, any gesture
towards income tax concessions now(Continued from page 7) I
Canada’s Leader
Pays Flying Visit
Gets Big Cheese
Canada’s new prime minister, Rt.Hon. Louis St Laurent, paid his first
visit to Ingersoll last Saturady. It lastedexactly three minutes.
His train arrived in clouds of steam,
smoke and wet blobby snow at 11:22a.m. It pulled out at exactly 11:25 a.m.,
with the P. M. scrambling aboard likeany other citizen when the conductor
shouted “all aboard.”
But in that short space of time, the
handsome, smiling premier covered a
lot of ground. As the train came intothe station, he was standing on the
platform between cars waving hishomburg and shouting “hallo—hallo
glad to see you all.” Packed around
and behind him were other dignitaries,including Hon. Paul Martin, minister
of health, K. R. Daniel, Oxford’s MP.,various parliamentary secretaries, andnewspapermen covering the primeminister on his two-day tour of westernOntario.

Teacher, Minister, Scholar
But Washes Dishes Here
By Jessica RobinsA brilliant young man, trained to be
a church minister and a high schoolteacher, washes dishes in a local res
taurant, the opportunities he hoped forin Canada as yet merely dreams. It
will be four more years before JohnSzucs (pronounced “Sees"), a displaced
person from Hungary, can becomenaturalized and during that time his
extensive knowledge must apparentlylie dormant, not enriching Canadianintellect as such genius should.
His flight from Hungary in 1948 istypical of the exodus of many others
who turned yearning eyes toward theNew World and its freedoms when they
wearied of the uncertain existence intheir own Communist-crushed country.While Mr. Szucs has had many experi
ences under the Communist regime,they cannot be discussed for various
reasons, but it can be stated he is oneof the fortunate ones who made good
his escape. He arrived in Canada lastAugust, with the status of a Displaced
Person, obliged to serve one year as afarm laborer. Because of his education,he was released from his pledge and he
made his way to Ontario the followingNovember. Here he hopes to acquire a
position as a teacher in one of theprovince’s educational institutions.
Speaks Perfect English
Mr. Szucs speaks perfect English,
slightly accented. He is deeply interested in everything Canadian and isquickly adapting himself to Canadian
ways of life, as well as being remarkably well versed in the history of his
adopted land. He is a tall, dark,scholarly looking man of 36. given to
emphasizing his points with choppygestures of his finely moulded hands,or pacing restlessly about while seek
ing correct phrasing for his theories.While a boy in high school, John Szucs
studied the English language at home.When a sister enrolled for a commercial
course in the Italian tongue he used herbooks to make the language his own.Russian was learned from the Sovietsoldiers and officials in his homeland.In all, he fluently speaks and writes
English, German, French, Roumanian,Italian, Russian and his native Hun
garian. He has also mastered Greekand Latin.
It is apparent Mr. Szucs showed anabove-average intelligence, even inchildhood, for at 12 his knowledge
permitted him to earn money for hiseducation by tutoring less clever class
mates. Under the Hungarian schoolsystem, students short of funds, such
as he was, arc given free educationaccording to their academic standing.
It is a tribute to Mr. Szucs’ scholasticability that he was able to completehis final two years of schooling free of
charge. In fact, the university facultygave him a supervisory position over
the younger students which paid hima small salary. We are informed his
free education credits mounted so highhe was unable to use them all beforegraduation, so a younger brother was
permitted to use these inherited creditsfor his own education in the same
school.
Is Ordained Minister
Mr. Szucs is actually an ordainedminister of the Reformed or CalvanisticChurch, with post-graduate study in
Edinburgh, Scotland, and Leipzig, Germany. His reasdns for calling himself
"Mister" instead of “Reverend” are alla part of his own philosophy of life, andthis philosophy evolved during the time
he served as a minister in the years ofthe Second World War. The churches,
he explains, are state-controlled andlevy a tax on all parishioners no matter
whether their politics be pro or antiCommunist. As minister of one of thesechurches, it was his duty to collect
these monies. The task was an unpleasant one. especially in dealing with
the peasant class which was so eagerlygrasping the “better wealth distribu
tion’’ bait of the Communists, and considered themselves too(hard-headed tobother with religion. Jo the churchleader also came'all the accounts thechurch was expected to pay. To use
the words of the then Reverend .Szucs,"I felt as if I were being slowly pulver
ized between two grinding millstones."He resigned his charge and made a personal vow he would never again preach
the Gospel in a position where he wouldbe dependent on a salary for doing this
work. Neither would he raise himselfto a psuedprsunerior rank- over a con
gregation by calling himself “Reverend”.He would be, instead, a* man>among
men, not preaching down to them but
rather teaching among them. Man is
too fallible, he believes, to dare set
himself up as an example for his flock.

Ingersoll Man’s Disgust
Starts Queen’s Pk. Action
On “Indecent” Literature
An exclamation of shocked surprise and disgust by an Ingersoll
citizen, J. C. Dorland, 163 Bell St., has echoed in Ottawa and Queen’s
Park, and now C. R. Magone, deputy attorney general for Ontario,
is asking Ottawa to put "more teeth” in the law governing indecentliterature.
Dorland, an ex-serviceman, has seen plenty of “rotten literature”,
but the other day he picked up a little 25-cent pocket book from alocal stand, which, he said, “was more lewd, indecent and positively
revolting” than anything he’d ever seen. After choking and blushingto the roots, Dorland got off a hot letter to the minister of justice,
Hon, Stuart Garson, who passed it down to Dr. James J. McCann,minister of national revenue, who in turn told Dorland it was strictly
a matter for the provincial government.

Lay Cornerstone
Of New Hospital
As Crowds Watch
In a brief but moving ceremony,
the cornerstone of the new Alexandra Hospital here was laid Wednes
day.
Scores of officials, dignitaries and
citizens in all walks of life, and
from many miles around, looked onas Mr. Roy W. Green, long promi
nent in hospital work, laid the stone
for the modern hospital which willopen by Easter, 1950, it is hoped.
When completed, there will not bea finer hospital in the country.
With Royden G, Start, president
of the hospital trust, absent throughillness, Allan R. Horton, the vice-
president, and chairman of the new
building committee, acted as master of ceremonies. The ceremony
lasted only 30 minutes and was
broadcast over CKOX. A recording for later broadcast was also
made by CFPL, London.
Daniel It Speaker
Mr. Horton welcomed all those
who thronged the area just besidethe old Alexandra Hospital, to take
part in one of the town’s historici events, and then Rev. George W.
Murdoch, of St, Paul’s Presbyterian
Church, and head of the local min-. isterial association, gave the invocation.
K. R. Daniel, M.P. for Oxford*who came down from Ottawa, spe
cially for the occasion as guestspeaker, lauded the efforts of all,
from the rich to the poor, who hadmade the new hospital possible. Hepointed out what a tremendous ben
efit it would be not only for Ingersoll but its neighboring, friendly
communities.
Mr. Horton then asked Mr. T. N.Dunn, a member of the board of
trustees, to place the bronze container in the stone. Mr. Dunn read
the list of the documents and art
icles contained in it, They included;the first annual report of the old
hospital, of 1910, and the annualreport for 1948; copies of The Ing
ersoll Tribune and The Sentinel-
Review; photographs of the hospitaltrust, the medical staff and Mi's, R.

Dorland, who sent a copy of the bookin question along, with the charge that
at least 50 per cent of similar books
were as bad or worse, then wrote theprovincial attorney general, and the
latest reply from Mr. Magone reported
he was acting on Dorland’s plea foraction.
“I have already had a discussion
with the deputy minister of justice inconnection with the provisions of the
criminal code regarding indecent literature,” he wrote March 7, "and I am
writing to him suggesting come amend
ments which might put 'more teeth’into the law.
“I shudder to think of the impression
this book would make on some of the14, 15, 16 and 17 year old boys and
girls, that can buy them with ease,"Dorland told the Tribune. "If all books
cannot be censored, then at least there
should be some control on the saleof them to juveniles.”
“Really Something”
“If you think that’s a bad book,” interjected a young school girl," you
should read such-and-such. “It’s really
something. Sure, we’ve read them all."Dorland made the correspondence on
the subject available to the Tribune,feeling, as did the Tribune, that it
was very much in the public interestDr. McCann wrote, Feb. 11:
“Dear Mr. Dorland:

THE WAY OF LIFE

'Tia Ould Ireland’s Day Today
And All Salute The Irish
Shure, and tfiere’s a lot of Irishmen about
today. It’s ould Ireland’s day—the 17th of
March! Begorrah, it’s the top o’ the mornin’ to
you. And if you didn’t come from the Emerald
Isle, and even if you have no Irish blooddn you,
it’s still all right to be a-wearin’ o’ the grfeen to
day. On St Patrick’s Day, so they say, there are
two kinds of people only in all the world—those
who hail from Ireland and those who wish they
did.Today the world salutes the Irishman, with
his ready wit and his kind heart. It sings again
the songs of Ireland and delights anew in the
legends that have come down from generation to
generation. Ould Ireland’s day is a happy one.
Faith, with our smiles for the land of the green,
we’d do our best to twist our tongue around an
Irishman’s brogue if, for the day, we could have
his gift of humor.
Everyone Should Help
Make Nicer World For Crippled
Under auspices of the Kiwanis Club of Inger
soll, letters are to be mailed to 5,000 residents of
Ingersoll and the district asking them to support
the work of the Ontario Society for Crippled Chil
dren. Today, the society is beginning a campaign
throughout Ontario to raise the sum of $225,000.
In these letters there will bo sheets of Easter
Seals, appropriate for use on letters mailed dur
ing the Easter season. The recipients are asked
to keep them and mail the money for them in a
return envelope, also enclosed. Of course, dona
tions in excess of the value of the Easter Seals re
ceived will be gratefully received.
The seal depicts a crippled boy, with leg
braces, and balancing himself with crutches as he
stands beside his faithful dog. In the background
the rays of the rising sun illuminate the sky over
the boy's head. It is a symbolical picture, for in
the money received from the sale of Easter Seals
the Ontario Society for Crippled Children is per
forming mighty works in the creation of new
dawns of a full and happy life for many handi
capped boys and girls.
It is a campaign in which we should be proud
to have a share, and we think our Kiwpnis Club is
performing a worthy sendee in presenting it to
us. Each of us feels a tightening of the heart
strings when we* seen a crippled child, and we
wash that we could do something for him. Few of
us are able to undertake the responsibilities of
providing the skillful attention which he needs,
but all of us can help a little or much to make it
possible for the Ontario Society for Crippled Chil
dren to bring a gloriously happy dawn for many,
many crippled children.
There Are Many Advantages
To Be Enjoyed on The Farm
Many people who live in urban centres think
this is an easy time for the farmers. It's probably
one reason why so great a percentage of town and
city folks long for an opportunity to settle down
on the' farm. There is no work to be done in the
fields in the winter, and so they reason it must be
an easy life from fall to spring.
Most farmers do not have more spare time
on their hands in the winter than they know what
to do in. Any leisure time looming up is usually
well planned for—perhaps a trip to town.
In the Ingersoll district, almost every farmer
has a stable filled with cattle. There’s a lot of
difference in the amount of work to be done on
cattle in the winter than in the good old summer
time when they are outside. They must be fed
and given clean straw for bedding. The stables
have to be cleaned out a couple of times a day.
Come morning and come evening, the cows must
be milked—and on time!
All the livestock—the pigs, the sheep, the
horses (if they haven’t been replaced by tract
ors), and the poultry—require much time during
a farmer’s winter day.
A farmer has many things to do in the win-
ter. He sort of gets ready for spring early in the
winter by repairing his implements, and in the
winter he finds a little time to fix things around
the barn that he had to let go in the summermonths.
However, we think there are a lot of ad
vantages to farming over many occupations.
While it’s not the easy job so many of us in town
think, it’s one that has independence to it A
farmer soon learns to depend upon himself. He
has to be a little of everything. He must know his
soil and how to cultivate and fertilize it to pro
duce good crops. He has to be a carpenter and a
mechanic, and he has to know how to care for
minor illnesses and injuries of his livestock.
There is a satisfaction to having sown a feld
that is green with growing grain, to having bred
•nd raised prize-winning livestock, to having a
comfortable home and n well-kept bam. There is
happiness in turning the first furrow In the spring
•nd in harvesting the com in the fall, in tieing up
the cattle for the winter in the fall and in watch
ing them leave the stables for pasture fields in the
spring.
Farming is a healthy work. While much has
been said about the hard work of farming, we
doubt if very many successful farmers would con-
THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MAR. 17, 1949elder it so very laborious. The farmer knows hecan take time off when he wanta to, and he alsoknows what must be done on his farm. He knows,too, the enjoyment in his home in the eveningswith the day’s work in the fields done and hischores in the barn finished.
Farming is a friendly life. Farm houses are
not so close as houses in town only separated by
driveways. The friendliness of those who farm is
manifested when visitors call, at socials in thd
church or community hall, and when farmers
come to town shopping.
There is a saying that far-away fields look
greener, and it is safe to say that town and'City
folk will always anticipate a day when they can
go farming, and the farm folks when they can re
tire to town to live. The urbanites will get used
to the wide open spaces of the country in time,
but few indeed are the farmers who do not ex
perience loneliness amidst the close confines of
house and lot and long for a return to the farm.
Disadvantages there are to farming, but its
advantages are greatly in excess of them. There
are advantages that cannot be adequately ex
pressed in words. Who could describe the feeling
that comes into a farmer’s being as he observes
the affection of his animals for him, or when he
looks over his bountiful crops as they near the
harvest season? He knows that all of Nature
worked with him fron\ seeding time. In the
peaceful quietness of his own domain, he knowscontentment.
Farmers, like us who work at many different
kinds of jobs, tire sometimes of their work. They
hear much about the hard work of farming, of
what some organization or some politician plans
to do for their benefit, and they may, at timet^
almost lose sight of the many advantages whichare theirs.

Notes on the Editor's Pa d.
The other day the most powerful engine In
gersoll has ever seen, apart from a railway loco
motive, arrived all wrapped up like a Christmas
present or, better still, an Egyptian mummy. It
was the 2,500 H.P. Rolls-Royce engine for Har
old Wilson’s 150-mile-an-hour Harmsworth chal
lenge boat. Behind the arrival is a little story,
too. After the Rolls-Royce people kindly put
aside all sorts of regulations to make the loan of
two engines, and the British government put aside
a few more to let the engines out of the country,
Canadian customs officials decided an $1,800 im
port duty should be paid on each engine before
they could come into this country. The engines
stopped dead virtually after leaving the ship until
wires, phones and government departments hum
med, and then finally a special order-in-council
was passed, and the engines were freed. Inci
dentally, we’d like to see an "open house’’ to per
mit Ingersoll and area to see this mighty engine
winch will carry Ingersoll’s and Canada’s hopes in
the most famous speedboat race in the world.
We think it is high time something was done
about welcome—and identification—signs at Ing
ersoll’s main highway entrances. The last big
windstorm took down the only sign on the west
ern entrance, and you can’t see the one on the
east side for an even bigger one .which says don’t
go faster than 30—or. We don’t know whether
that means you’ll be pinched, ‘or you might be
tossed clean through the roof, but it’s the only
greeting a driver gets when he hits the place. It
is conceivable a motorist could go right through
from one end of the town to the other without
knowing where he’s been—unless, of course, he’d
heard something of the. roads before this. Perhaps
that's why the name of the town is buried—so
any survivors won’t know just where it hit them.
But when we do fix the roads and put up new
signs, let’s make them colorful and attractive—
something which tells of the story and drama of
Ingersoll. Something like "Ingersoll—the home
I of Laura Secord,” which will attract Canadian
tourists, or ‘‘Home of Laura Secord and Aimee
Semple Macpherson,” which will bag the American tourists. Right now, everyone, seems to go
right through—and the quicker the better.

the other day to report having seen something
weird and wonderfql in the animal world. After
telling his story, he also insisted he had not been
to a party previously. He said he was walking
along Carroll St, when he saw what appeared to
be “an awkward sort of a squirrel.” It was gray,
hg said, and it had the head of a squirrel. But its
bind, end Was that of a rabbit And it had no tail.
When he got close, Clark said the “whatisit” sort

Reatere the Rod
A-young man and two police officers werebeaten by hoodlums in Toronto Friday night.
Eleven persons were arrested for violence of onekind or another. One victim of attack was merelysuspected of being a "police spy.” Just recently
a young girl was set upon by a teen-age gangwhich mistook her for a "squealer.”Imagine a condition where citizens cannot usethe streets for fear of the grudge-violence ofgangs of overgrown brats! What is to be said ofa city which, having allowed that condition to
develop, suffers it to continue? Surely it is timeto call a halt The police, we believe are capableof doing that, But they have a right to expect
co-operation.On the experience of recent weeks, the placefor co-operation to begin is the courts. Nothingis being accomplished by leniency toward theyoung hoodlums. A court appearance and fine,or short sentence, are no deterrent. On the con-. trary, the youths seem to accept that as a specialrecognition, something like an order of merit.
They have been noticed; they have had theirnames and pictures in the paper; they have beenglorified as “tough guys”.
This need not be. It is possible to deal withthem firmly and in a manner they will not remember so favorably. The proper treatment, thisnewspaper believes, is a good, old fashionedstrapping, generously applied. In saying so it
is aware the adage, “Spare Hie rod and spoil thechild”, is no longer popular. It is not modem;it does not enable one to “understand" the delln-- quents.Perhaps the emphasis should be given to hav
ing the hoodlums understand a bit about the community in- which they live and what happens toyoung sadists who persist in behaving like undisciplined adolncenta. A good thrashing may notwork a cure in every case. But of one thit< we
•re certain. It will work a lot of cum and willdo the remainder no harm.—Globe and Mail.

T Doing Real Job
Secretary Asserts
During the past two monthsY.M.-Y.W.CA. has received great s
life of this town?
During the early years of Ingersoll and vicinity, wc are told thatmoney as a means of exchange wasvery scarce and that trade was carried on mostly by barter or the ex
change of goods. As a result, whenmoney was available, British, United States and Mexican gold and silver, as fell as Spanish money, wereall legal tender in the Village of
Oxford.
There lived during this time in
our community two) men who endeavored to get through life with aslittle effort as possible and whowere not too particular whethertheir just debts were ever liquidat
ed or not. As usual they did notblame themselves for the destitutecondition of their families but rather blamed the world at large forits injustice to them and the government for not seeing that theymight get along with a minimum ofeffort.
They took counsel with each oth- ier, for one had from the mentalprocesses of his very clever brainconceived a brilliant idea whereby •
they might both be possessed ofconsiderable wealth without mucheffort and without injury to anybody. Was it not a well-knownfact that from time to time details !
of soldiers passed over the Thamesalley Road with relief details andsupplies for the garrison to the
West, and was it not also well- ’known that at regular intervals thepaymaster marched with them withhis keg of silver to pay the troops.It was not i^yong to take from thegovernment, as the soldiers wouldnot lose their pay but only have to
wait a little longer till the govern- <ment replaced it. Men smuggledgoods into the country at every opportunity, and the informer wasconsidered to be the lowest type ofcitizen.
The opportunity soon came forthese two clever citizens to put
their plan into execution, for a com-any of militia were encamped onthe hill on King St, East for thenight. Now was their chance. Theywent to the blacksmith shop at midnight with a couple of sacks and ga
thered up enough old iron and oxshoes to fill a keg and then made
their way to the vicinity of the bivouac. Fortune favored them. Thesentry moved about very little and
seemed most inclined to get a littlesleep, so the two quietly made their
way to the stores tent, keeping outof sight of the guard. They managed to lift the edge of the canvas, lo
cate the keg of dollars and roll itout and to a safe distance. By removing the top hoop and head theywere able to transfer the Mexicandollars to a bag and replace it with
scrap iron. Then replacing thehead and hoop, they just as carefully returned the keg to the tent. I
leaving everything as they had
found it. . .
So their very clever and well-laidplan had worked. No suspicion
would be directed to them because

For H oo liganism of T o d ay
By Evelina A. Long
I have often wondered whetherit is possible to go through such awar as the world recently witnessed
and remain the same. Perhaps wedo feel we are the same as beforethe calamity; people with the same
pity, the same feeling of respectfor law and order, the same honesty of purpose, the same fine senseof reverence for the loftier things
of life. But I doubt it is true.I came across some lines that expressed what I have felt about one
of the worst results of war. "Bloodand destruction shall be so in useand dreadful objects so familiar . .All pity choked with custom of
fell deeds’’ To hear constantly ofslaughter, of extermination of tens
of thousands as one day’s stint ofwarmaking, to see by way of themotion picture and the illustratedpress, the horrors perpetuated by
friend and foe alike is at length to
harden us. We stand just so muchand the rest fails to register.And all this. I think, is one ex
planation of the unruly conduct ofthe teen-agers in the news. Theysaw these things too; they learned
how little sacred was life and property in times of war. They hearnow of the insecurity of the world,
of the prospects of still a«‘»th«r
war. And, knowing they-will be
called on in the event of our inse
curity to secure the peace, they letgo any moral restraints they may
have learned in early years ana de
termine to take what they want as
and when they can.Older people, having lived long
enough to develop somo »°rt
ot philosophy for themselves, or
having thrown overboard their idea!isms as so much excess baggage ina workaday world, are better sble
to face a changing way of life. The
young, who are, or should be- thethe greatest Idealists, seeing these
things, sensing a world antagonistic
to ideals, simply discard old estab
lished ideas of right and wrong,and do as they please. A youngperson 'bereft of ideals and consciousonly of' the strength of his desires,becomes the animal he at bottom is.He’ll snatch a purse or a girl oranything he wants and rejoice inhis ability to do it.
Good homes produce good citizens. War encourages laxness of
morals, destroys homes and citizens.
It may seem a far cry from a pastwar to a present hooliganism, butdon’t think it is. I believe it fol
lows as a perfectly logical conclusion. The home is the first and byfar the most important influence
in the creation of good citizenship.If we have failed in this respect asfar as these rebellious young people
are concerned, we 'should at leastsee to it that the children now coming along are given the care and
discipline that make them nearer to
our hearts’ desire.

obtained it must be proven that thepublisher knowingly published indecentmatter tending to corrupt morals.
“Ineffective prosecution is worse thanno prosecution because all that It does
is to give free publicity to questionablebooks. The book In question was the
subject of a prosecution in New York
city and the judgment of the courtthere was that, taking the book as a
whole, it was not a work of pornography. The courts held that the book
as a whole must be taken into consideration and not merely isolated pas
sages; that to consider only isolatedpassages would bring a large numberof classics under the ban and possibly
the Bible itself.Very Unsatisfactory
“We have taken a number of prosecutions under the section of the criminalcode dealing with indecent literaturewith very unsatisfactory results."“The deputy’s letter speaks volumes
for the present weak-kneed law andneeds no further elaboration by me,"
Dorland commented. “The underlyingmotive of my action is not only an
honest desire of keeping these filthy
books from teen-agers, but is also aselfish motive on my part. I have two
little girls that my wife and I wantto raise to womanhood. We want tobe able to feel reasonably sure that as
children and young women they canwalk the streets of their home town
in safety. We don’t want them to end
up on a slab in the morgue, a victimof an adult with a twisted mind; a
mind that first began to be affectedwhen he was a teen-ager reading lewd
books such as I have been writingabout.
.“Many might say. ’Oh. it couldn’t
happen here in Ingersoll.’ I pray toGod it never will, to anyone. That isthe reason for the letters I have beenwriting.”

and area—an Oxford county Stiltoncheese. It was three years old and, weighed 11 pounds.
i “You shouldn't be so Liberal with;I your gifts," said Mr. St. Laurent, with I

I As the train chuffed impatiently, Iand the wet snow continued to slop ;

for his “hallo—how are you?", andlittle Bobby Payne, though too young ito realize it, got one of the thrills o f1
his life time, when the prime ministerlifted him from the arms of his mother,
Mrs. Jack Payne, and commented what
a lovely little boy he was. Then . heand Bobby, whose daddy works in the

girj. gave her a big kiss and said“goodbye Honey.’’
Jill couldn't believe it.
i “Pm not going to -wash that cheekfor months," she said.
The prime minister hopped aboard,
and the train moved away with theP.M. waving his hand and hat. smiling
and shouting “Goodbye — goodbye —thank you — thank you—we’ll meetagain.”

“That statement is quite unfair because the power to enact criminal laws

more expressly for the furnishingof rooms in the hospital.
Litt 38 GroupsThere were 38 organizations listed, together with the names of Mr.Lewis Sandick and the late Mrs. E.A. Wilson. Long before her death,.Mrs. Wilson had asked in her willthat a certain sum go to the new
hospital for that purpose.There is a little story behind getting the prime ininistef and his wifeas patrons, and getting their signatures -on the scroll. Mrs. P. M.Dewan, president of the Women’sAuxiliary, was down to meet Mr.
St. Laurent on his quick visit to Ingersoll, and time being short shegave the scroll to Hon. Paul Martin,
minister of health, who took it toLondon, had Mr. and Mrs. St. Laurent sign it in the meantime, then
had it delivered back here in timefor placing in the stone. On it th*
St Laurents had written. "Inmemory of a hasty visit to Ingersoll.”After the foot-long containerhad been placed in the stone, Mr.Horton called on Mr. Green to layit It bore the simple inscription,“1949.” Then Mr. Horton asked
Mr. Green to accept as a gift thesilver trowel made specially for theoccasion, and engraved; “Presented
to R. W. Green, on the occasion ofthe laying of the cornerstone of theAlexandra Hospital, Ingersoll, Ontario, March 16, 1949.’’
Built .pedal platform
A special platform, about eightfeet high, was built for the occasion, and colorfully decorated in
red, white and blue ribbon. Seatedon it were Mrs, Murray, wife ofthe mayor; Mrs. Dewan, Mrs. T. H.
Adams, of the hospital trust; Mrs.Green and Mrs. Dunn. Spectatorssat in cars or braving the blowingsnow standing below and aroundthe platform. Among those presentwere Judge apd Mrs. Schwenger,from Hamilton, parents, and Mrs.Bill Schwenger, (wife of the builder
of the hospital. Many others prominent in Ingersoll and area life,were present, including Warden
and Mrs. George Fewster.“This is a proud day in Ingersoll’s history," said Mr. Daniel, whosaid he brought from Hon. PaulMartin, national minister of health,and Hon. Russell T. Kelley, provincial minister, “the very best wishesfor the future success of this hos
pital.”
Like an expert
Mr. Green handled the trowel,
and patted the stone in as thoughhe’d been a bricklayer for years.“I declare this stone well- and
truly laid.” he said.Then Mrs. Adams, long connect
ed with hospital work, presented abouquet to Mrs. Green.Mayor Murray said it was “avery important day for Ingersolland surrounding community." “Iwant to pay tribute to all who havecontributed to this great workwhich is going to mean so much to
all of us. The hospital will rendergreat service. And I want to paytribute tot Mr. Bill Schwenger, who
is doing us a grand job."“This is a happy day,” Mrs. De
wan, who has done tremendouswork for the new hospital, said.“We feel just like kiddies who
have waited for Christmas. Seldom
such a job, and seldom have s" they;
responded so well. This day is a greatday for all who arc working forthis hospital and for all who will
benefit from it.”After the ceremony ended, a re

Looking over the local hockeysituation, the Ingersoll Merchants
are holding a two goal lead overthe Royal Bank, Woodstock, afterdefeating them Monday night 5-3,
in the Industrial League Finals ina two-game series, goals to count.The Merchants are playing a
fine brand of hockey and the oldrivalry^ of many years past stillexists "letween these two neighbor
ing. towns.It was great to see such a fine
representation from town last Mon
day night at the game and it ismost encouraging to manger Lester“Butch" Kurtzman and coach GlenBradfield as well as the players, tohear the Ingersoll fans yell “Stayin there Lewis”, “Come on Bonner”and “Flatten them Scotty”, meaning little Fairservice.The most disappointing incidentof the evening was to see the localswaiting for their teammates to
come off the ice so they would havea hockey stick to continue thegame with, such as the sticks were.
There were only five whole sticksfor all the players. The one reserved stick was held only for emer
gency. So let’s all get behind thisteam and cheer them on to victorynixe Monday night at the Wood-
stock Arena.

so the South Oxford League.“Bummer.’’ as he is called bymost all who know* him, has alwaysset an example when on the ice. Heis “cool as a cucumber” in the netswhere he is trying to make good, as

ment to try out for Detroit RedWings. Next fall at Sault Ste. Marie. Mich., and if he makes good
land we feel sure he will) he willmove to the Windsor Spitfires.So we all say "best of luck, Leo.”

Two radio interviews were
arranged to acquaint parents of
Ingersoll school children with someof the motives of a Home andSchool Association. The first took
place Tuesday over CKOX. Mrs.C. A. Ackert, who was interviewed,
pointed out there is no organizationor selected group of parents sponsoring this organization in Inger
soll. The work is absolutely voluntary. Anyone interested will havean opportunity to take part in the
Association.
She also made it clear that a
Home and School Association is notan organizaion to take over running of the school, nor does it in-
terefere with the duties of theBoard. It is not a social organiza
tion to promote parties and dances,nor does it raise funds to buyschool equipment. It is an organiz
ation of parents, (fathers andmothers), and teachers, (men andwomen), to study and discuss prob
lems relating to education and
family life.Parents realize the need formore,help to intelligently cope withthe problems of everyday family
life. This is your opportunity tohelp yourself to help your chil
dren at home, at school, and atplay. This organization^can be madea glowing example of co-operation
for. a Home and Schoo’ Association,and is open to all race, and creeds.
Before an Association is formed,an open meeting is called to whichall pare.ri.t of oil children are ir.
vited. An official organizer fromthe Ontario Federation of Homeand School Associations is presentto explain in detail the aims, motives and work of the Association.A meeting of this nature will becalled in Ingersoll as soon as theorganizer assigned to us is able tocome. Another interview was,heard March 15. at the same time,when same of the criticisms we
have heard were answered.

ON THE ALLEYS
BOWL
New Chopping MillIs Started By Eidt
Hello Homemakers! In yourquest for foods to serve duringlent, let me suggest lima beans.
They are a good alternate- for potatoes, macaroni and rice. Becausethey belong to the starchy foods,lima beans contribute energy andheartiness to the meal as well as
minerals- They rate high in protein,too, which puts them in the class ofmeat substitutes.
While the flavour pf lima beansis bland, it is sufficiently distinctiveto add variety to your meals even
if beans are served plain in placeof potatoes. However, because of
their blandness we can vary themin a wide range of uses. We likethem equally well in salad or incasserole. In a chilled bowl combine cold cooked lima beans withcrisp textured vegetables such nscelery and fold in some rather nippy homemade salad dressing.
A variety of delicious lima beancasseroles is possible with the useof different sauces and seasonings
in their preparation. Plan the remainder of the meal to balancesuch an all-in-one-course, e.g., LimaBean Casserole, Carrot and " ' ’salad. Date squares and
fruit.
Lima Bean Casserole
1 cup dried lima beans
1 cup dried lima beans3 onions, sliced1 can condensed tom ato__
1 tablespoon chopped celery2 tablespoons bacon fat
% cup hot water1 cup grated cheeseSoak lima beans overnight,
the morning bring to boil. Thenplace over boiling water, add celeryand cook until tender. (1 to 2
hours.) Drain.While beans are cooking, fry slic
ed onions in bacon fat until goldenbrown. Add tomato soup anti w*a-ter. Simmer gently for 10 min
utes. When beans are cooked anddrained, add to sauce. Stir incheese. Season with salt and pep
per. Pour into greased casserole.Bake in moderate electric oven
(350 degrees) for 20 minutes.Yield: four servings,
Lima Bean Salad
2 cups cooked lima beans’• (chilled)1-2 cup grated carrotSalt
3 hard-cooked eggs1 cup chopped celerycup cooked salad dressingleaf lettucewatercress or parsley
Combine beans, celery, carrotand salad dressing lightly with a
fork. Season with salt. Serve inmounds on leaf lettuce. Garnishwith hard-cooked egg sections.
The Question Box
Mrs. J. C. asks for this recipe:
Ingersoll has a new grist andchopping mil), Modem equipment
for the grinding, mixing and rollingof grain and feed has been install
ed in the J. M. Eidt Feed Mill onThames St, at the C.N.R. tracks."As well as convenience for farmers, it will provide them with fastservice also,'* Jack Eidt, the owner,states.All the equipment has diiect-drive motors, and it is all automat
ic.. The installation has taken several -weeks, and there is equipmenton three floors, from the basement
to the second floor of the building.Mr, Eidt says the mill is ready toserve district farmers with all poultry and stock medicines and tonics.A veteran of the R.C.A.F., Jackbought the business in 1945 from B.L. Scott, who operated it for 46years, having erected the building
and started the business half a cen
tury ago.Assisting Jack are a brother,Tom. who helps in the giving of efficient service, and aiding him in an
advisory capacity is his father,Councillor C. A. Eidt, whose advicecomes from 50 years of experience

DORCHESTER
Working In Ingersoll
A by-law for examining, licensingand governing electricians in Ingersoll
was passed by Town Council at itslast meeting. The by-law urgedby Ingersoll electricians and okayedby them, provides that no one can doelectrical work (apart from his own
premises) until he has been given alicense, either as a "Master Electrician"
or “Journeyman.”Each applicant will be examined bya board of examiners consisting of the
local district hydro inspector, one manappointed by Council, one by themaster electricians and one by the
Journeyman electricians. For the resident master, the fee will be $5—
for the non-resident, $25. For theresident journeyman, $3—for the nonresident, $10.me electricians pointed out that thesecond greatest cause of fires and re
sultant loss of life was due to faultywiring, “in a great many cases instal
led by inexperienced amateurs whonever have their work inspected.” Theby-law, they said, would protect the
public, and the trade from outsidecompetition.

“A Little Too Late”“The government has seen fit to
give some indication that tax reductions
definitely are forthcoming in the nextbudget"The budget of 1949 is a little too
late to attempt to salve the woundsinflicted on Canadian taxpayers during
the past three or four years. Too little
and too late. That summarizes therecord of this government
“I would like to make reference tothe latest income tax. form. In looking
over this form I seg the s*mt oldquestions as were on the form of years
gone by, but the printing has becomemuch smaller. They have finally come
up with what they call a simplifiedform. There would appear to be some
confusion, however, in the income taxbranch as to what is meant by simplifi
cation. After looking over the latestform it would appear to me that
simplification, in the hands of the income tax branch, means condensation.The form is condensed and contains
tiny type which a chartered accountantfriend of mine told me the other day hedefied any man over thirty years o: ageto read. He does a great deal of workon these forms, and it is his predictionthat by next year he will probably benext thing to blind. Would I be too
inquisitive if I were to ask the Ministerof National Health and Welfare (Mr.
Martin) if he intends to supply Canadian taxpayers with bifocals, or glasses
of some kind, so that they might atleast be able to read what is on theseforms?Protest Methods
“While the radio rax is not a heavy
one in itself, I believe it is the onewhich more than any other causes
concern to the people of Canada. Theyare not so much interested in the
amount of the tax as in the way it iscollected. I know that around Christmastime some radio inspectors came to
my home town. They did not evenplay fair with the people because, first
of all, when they came to town theycalled upon radio salesmen and at the
post office to find out whether John
Jones or Dick Smith had bought hislicense, or whether he had bought
one last year. Then all they had to dowas to go around and knock on doors,
scaring the poor housewife half outof her wits. She would think she was
going to be arrested, because probably
she had told her husband to get one,and he had told her to get one, with
the result that neither of them gotone. They find themselves in trouble,and a few days later it all comes out
in the local paper, stating that JohnSmith has been charged with a breachof the law.
“These people are no respecters of
persons, because the millionaires aretreated the same as other people, in
cluding widows and old people. I knowthat in about two days in Ingersoll
about 120 were picked up. They had topay fines, and then had to go out and
buy a new radio license.“Another tax to which I should like
to refer briefly is the luxury tax on 'lewelry, one which has been brought
Forcibly to our attention within the
last few days. Many jewelers have ,complained to me about the hardship
it worked on them. They have pointed .out how it has reduced sales in their
particular line of business. For in- ,stance, a' jeweler may have an article '
classed as a luxury by the department
However, one may walk up the streetto a dealer who handles a cheaper '
range of goods, but one which is per- .haps along the same line, generally. •
This man would handle cutlery, dishes,and all kinds of jewelry. At the secondstore one could purchase almost the
facsimile of the article but at a ridiculously low price. But there is no tax
on tiie article in the second store.Therefore I say the luxury tax on
jewelry should be abolished immediately.
Only Got S38
“Another matter 1 should like todiscuss is that of bovine tuberculosis.
In 1939 a petition was circulated among
the farmers of Oxford county askingthe federal government to make the
county an accredited area for the purpose of having dairy herds declared
free of bovine tuberculosis. This petition evidently had the required number
of signatures, but before a start was
made on the test the war intervenedand naturally the project was dropped
for the time being.“At the time the amount paid to
the owners of these T.B. reactors wasset at $60 for a grade animal and $150for a purebred, but for some un
known reason the government paidonly two-thirds of this valuation, or
$40 maximum for a grade animal and$100 for a purebred.
“I believe that in the house this weekthe Minister of Agriculture, answering
a question of the hon. member for
Bruce (Mr. Robinion), stated that theprice of a purebred reactor was $100.
I believe there must have been some
mistake in that, because I am Informedit is $150.”
Robert McCubbin, Middlesex West:
I do not wish to interrupt, but I believewhat the minister meant was that it
was two-thirds of $150—the same nsit would be two-thirds of $60. I believe
there was some misunderstandingthere”
Earl Rowe: “He still gets only $100.”
Mr. McCubbin: “Yes, and only $40.”
Never Got Full $40
“The price of a good grade cow was
then about $100,” Mr. Daniel continued;“so that if the animal reacted to the
tert and was condemned to slaughter,although the price of beef was very
cheap, the $40, or perhaps I should say$38, paid by the government was the
maximum; and from there it gradesdown to as low as $10, $12 or $15. I
have never heard of a farmer receiving
the full $40. Although the price ofbeef was very cheap, the $40, or per
haps I should say the $38. paid by thegovernment, plus the beef price of $50
average if the animal was passed bythe veterinarian as fit for human con
sumption, made a total of $83. Ofcourse, if the beast was declared useless the only receipt to the farmer for
his $100 cow was the $38 government
dairy type. Owing to the fact that
(they are tested at various stages oftheir lactation period, they are usuallyrather on the thin side and in mostcases are graded by the packing houses1 as canners or cutters or low pricedi beet
Many Lost Berds
“In spite of the comparatively high' prices of all beef products the farmer1 receives only an average of $100 to
$150 provided the animal passes Inspection. Suppose he gets $125 from
the packer plus the government’s $38,
that makes a total of $163. Grantedthat the animal as a milk producer in
her own stable Is worth $250, thatwould leave a loss on the transaction
of $87."I realize that there are not many
hon. members of this house acquainted
with this situation. The counties ofPerth, Oxford and Middlesex East are
the only counties in western Ontariowhere the test is presently going on.”
Mr. McCubbin: “Middlesex West”Mr. Daniel: The counties of Bruce,
Huron, Brant and Lambton are applying for the test I am sure that when
those counties are being tested the
minister will have many more resolutions coming in to him than he has
had from the three counties I havementioned.
“Many farmers have lost entire herds
of from twenty or even eighty cattleor more. When that happens their
whole economy is temporarily thrownoff balance since they not only lose
so much per head but in many cases
find themselves unable to replace theirherds, with the resulting loss of their
monthly milk cheques. This is particularly a hardship on the young man who
has just started up when he not only
has to lose part of his capital investment but has no income with which to
meet current expenses.
Causing Great Concern
“The Minister of Agriculture has re
ceived many resolutions during the pastyear from township councils, county
councils and the Federation of Agriculture, but as yet he has made no
change in the $38 compensation rateof many years standing. The minister
may remember the statement he made
last February at Woodstock when hewas the guest speaker at a meeting of
the Oxford County Federation of Agriculture. On that occasion someone
stood up at the back of the hall andasked the minister a pertinent questionin connection with an item we read
a great deal about in the papers, something that is sometimes spread on
bread. The minister answered thatquestion in what I thought was a very
good way.“To the best of my recollection he
said while he did not consider the
question was exactly fair, while hedid not intend to commit himself, as
a matter of fact he wanted to hear thedebate on the matter on the floor of
the house and after, hearing that de
bate he would make up his mind as toany decision he might make. Therefore
I am taking this opportunity to presentto the Minister of Agriculture the
position of the fanners of westernOntario and also the position of the
farmers of eastern Ontario because Ibelieve the testing will be started there
very soon.“He suggested the other day that
the government was considering making
a change and I submit that either thatchange should go all across the board
or the farmers should be paid forthose reactors that become total losses.
As it is now, for a $250 cow a farmer
may receive only $38 plus $10 salvage
''During the yearn of the war andsince, the prices of top grade dairy
cattle have advanced to a high of $250to $300 per head, but the compensation
has remained at the old level of SSIper head. The majority at these cattie
in Oxford being of the dairy type,Holstein. Frierian. Jersey or Ayrshire,
they never were classed as beingparticularly suitable for beef. The filet
for the hide, a total of $48. It is thatfact that is causing a great deal ofConcern to the farmer."I know of one herd of 28 head in
which 14 were found to be reactors.
Those cattle went into the fertilizertank and the farmer received only
$48 per head. If the government shouldcome to *a derision to pay more for
these reactors I hope that it will be
made retroactive so that the farmersof Oxford, Perth and Middlesex East
may receive due consideration as wellas the farmers in the new counties in
which the teat will be going on verysoon.
Speed lip Trains
"I should like to bring another matter
to the attention of the Minister ofTransport (Mr. Chevrier). The other
day the hon. member for Leeds (Mr.Webb) asked the minister to look into
a condition that existed in Brockvillewhere Canadian National trains cross
the main street and hold up trafficfor considerable periods of time. No. 2
highway passes through the town of
Ingersoll, and the railroad also passesthrough that town and cuts it in half
practically in the middle. On the northside of the river is located one of the
largest factories in the town, employingpossibly a thousand men. There are
also two schools located there.
“Three or four miles to the east ofthe town are located three limestone
quarries. When the railroad is bringing
in empty cars for the carriage of limestone products, crushed stone and so
on, they are brought to Ingersoll andthen put over what might be termedas the hump. Those who come from
Winnipeg or Fort William will knowhow the wheat cars there are put over
the hump for distribution. The resultof this is that highway traffic Is held
up, perhaps not beyond the five-minute
period, but sometimes it is nearl/everyother five minutes. I have seen the
traffic held up as far back as two orthree miles during the busy summer
season.
“The municipal council have taken
up this matter at various times withthe superintendent of the London di
vision who has always been mostcourteous. He comes down to pay us
a visit but the day he does come down
thfe railway traffic seems to be veryquiet. I presume he goes back to
London and reports that the conditiondoes not seem to be too bad, but the
next day the traffic is twice as heavy.
This is a situation which I wish theMinister of Transport would look into
at his earliest opportunity.”

The Thames River made headlines in the local newspapers
some days ago. Since our ances

changes have taken place and many
plans made to control its behavior.A recent news item indicated that
deeper and broader plans are instore. The river would no longer

directed along more effective channels, This idea was apllauded. and
the Thames was loved more' thanever. Since childhood when it was
considered quite'the thing to play
hooky and beat a path to the UpperDam for a cool swim, our fondnessfor the Thames has increased. Itcame as a distinct shock to find the
affection was mutual, for this weekthe river decided to move into the
cellar. Not the whole rizer. mind
ou, but just a foot and n half of
■nd the normal chugging resumed.
At last everything seemed to be
under control. The water decreased rapidly. Operation Thames was
well under way.

Today, the Reserve Force Soldier carries on in many ways
the tradition of the pioneers. He reflects their spirit
of building and guarding, for, like the pioneer, he is a
Citizen-Soldier with a keen sense of duty to the
community, recognizing the need to keep Canada
growing — to keep Canada strong and at peace.
The co-operation and active support of Canadians from
every walk of life is important, for the Reserve
Force is a vital part of Canada’s defence system.
The new Reserve Force has a lot to offer: Trade and
technical training; athletic programmes;
Active Service rates of pay for time
spent in training and summer camp.
The Reserve Force Armoury is a meeting
place where you can make new friends.

HARRIETSVILLE
By Mrs. Robert Jeffery
(Intended fgr last week)The World’s Day of Prayer was ob
served at the Mission Circle meeting inthe church Friday night Mrs. StanleyMarr acted as leader. Mrs. Murray
Hunter prepared the address for theevening, entitled “What Your MoneyDoes” and was given by Mrs. Aubrey
Barons. Mrs. Howard Johnson invitedthe Circle to the parsonage for theEaster thank-offering meeting, when
the Baby Band will be entertained.
Mr. and Mrs. Iven Warren of Kings-
The first reaction was horror and
dismay. A closer scrutiny reveal
ed a more humorous outlook. Allwas confusion! Water covered the
entire cellar floor. It started fromthe coal bin on the far wall and
ended lapping up the cellar steps.
Vegetables had parted from theircellophane wrappers and were ca
reening crazily in every direction.A large cabbage with a gingerale
bottle in tow was hobnobbing, vegetable fashion, with a turnip, while
carrots and potatoes bobbed about,adding their contribution to the
general havoc. In the midst of this
stood the furnace like a volcanicisland, hissing and steaming from a
mouthful of wet coal; The only
thing not here was the albatross.
This water in the cellar business
had great possibilities from a commercial viewpoint. One could ei
ther open a wading pool for tod
dlers, or as the water receded andthings became gooey, a thrivingmushroom business could be estab
lished. With the water at its present depth, a tunnel of love seemed
a good idea. A boat could be pictured gliding smoothly along af
fording complete privacy, especially
behind the furnace pipes.
Fresh soundings were taken,
which revealed the water had risentwo more inches. That was toomuch. The visitor had overstayed
its welcome, and must go. A pump
would dispose of this nuisance if apump could be located. The tele-'
phone book had no one listed as
owning such a contraption. Aftera lengthy discussion with the oper
ator, Information was called to joinin. Several names were obtained,
and upon being called, stated they
were very busy with projects concerning greater and deeper quanti
ties of water than a mere foot anda half, which seemed like a puddle
to them. Exaggeration would prob
ably get results. The next pump
owner was told that six feet of water was causing the trouble, and he
readily agreed to co-operate.
An hour later a truck roared into
the driveway. The pump was plump
ed on the veranda by an uncommunicative character who jumped
back in the truck and went on hissilent way. At least he could have
showed how to run the thing! Even
a handbook on How to Pump aPump would have been helpful. The
trial and error method would haveto do. With much hoisting and
heaving, the machine was establish
ed on the cellar steps, and plugged
in.
Experience teachef that nothingmechanical works that easily. Thiswas no exception. It groaned,
shuddered and blew the fuse. Afterthree groans, three shudders and
three fuses it seized. This was the
first pump in history to be strickenwith a charley horse. Before lini
ment could be applied to itts greasy
carcass, a helpful spectator suggested priming. This did the trick, for
it unseized itself and began spurting water in every direction. Spir
its were dampened internally anaexternally and an adjustment hastily made to the outlet hose. The
fountain effect ceased, and the wa
ter confined inside the hose left via
the cellar window.
I The pump chugged away at a■ great pace, and the problem of theX -------— k*. Just AM
Recreation Head
Seen Ingersoll Need
Ingersoll needs a director of recrea
tion, G. W. Pittock, president of theIngersoll Community Recreational
Centre, told the annual meeting of the
Centre in council chambers March 3.Plans for the spring and summer pro
gram are contingent upon such an appointment, he said, urging the moral
and financial backing of town council..The following members were chosen,
by acclamation: Directors, Gordon Pit
tock, Louis Martin, Bertram Carr, Gordon Bisbee, Ronald Skinner, Harold
McRoberts, Rev. C. D. Daniel, Dr. M. E.Jarett, Howard Young, J. R. Cryder-
man, Preston Walker, Lloyd Brown,
J. R. Henley.The above named, along with the
following, by virtue of their respective
offices, comprise the board of directorsfor the ensuing year: Cameron Bailey,
president of the Y*s Men’s Club; Gordon Henry, president, Y.M.CA.; R. A.
Stone, president. Chamber of Com
merce; Dr. J. G. Murray, Mayor of
Town of Ingersoll; E. A. Wilson, F. H.
Stone.Ken Ford reviewed the activities
carried on by the program committee.These indued 13’ dances, a regular
schedule of roller-skating, several
bingos and stage shows. Nine of theprograms were broadcast
Mr. Martin mentioned difficulties en
tailed in operating the centre duringa mild winter. Lack of ice meant only
9 out of 20 scheduled skating periodshad materialized. Rural hockey had
12 nights out of 18. Junior C hockey had
3 out of 6; and Minor hockey had 7out of 10. Nearly all the Saturdayhockey practice periods had been
abandoned. The mild winter occasioneda loss of slightly over $1,000 in revenue.
Mr. Pittock, president said immediate
plans for the spring and summer program were contingent upon the ap
pointment of a recreational director for
the town, which calls for the moraland financial support of Town Council.
He felt if artificial ice is to become areality, even if it is several years away,
plans should be laid immediately.
The Thames River program will opena large area of land that will supply
suitable sites for a new building, and
when the land has been filled in fromthe CP JR. tracks to Charles Street cast,
the floor of the Community Centrewill be approximately eight feet below
surrounding grade.
Mr. Pittock said the Centre’s debtis now $3,100 and that $2,500 of this
was accounted for by the purchase ofa hardwood floor and roller skates.The directors have been surprised
that public reaction seems to favourthe original cement floor, inasmuch as
the hardwood floor does not cover the
whole area of the floor, and the cementfloor is no longer deemed suitable for
dancing or roller skating.
