The quota was $1,800. That’s a big difference to $302.- 50, and it shows what everyone knew all the time, that when giving is concerned, the people of this area are right in there. The Red Cross Society have asked The Tribune to thank, for them all who helped make the cam­ paign a success? Thanks, everybody, for a grand job.• • • Confronted by opposition of two municipalities to the proposed new high school here, members of the Collegiate Institute board of Inger­ soll district conferred with Gordon Duffin, inspector with the depart­ ment of education, on the possibil­ ity of going ahead with the school anyway, since three municipalities which would carry the major load,favor it. Mr. Duffin is placing theproblem before authorities at Queen’s Park, and the board here is eagerly awaiting results.There is no doubt the school is needed. Fire Chief Ellis is to get a new uniform, town council has decided. The department Of highways has approved expenditure of $15,000 by the town during 1949 for repairs to roads (exclusive of main highways), leading into Ingersoll. The Bath­ hurst Construction Co. has also agreed to share costs of grading streets thrown out of kilter by the sewage installation. The town will do the grading. William Goodwin, Woodstock, C. P. R. employee, was named C. C. F.candidate for Oxford in the _ forth­ coming Federal vote at nomination meeting recently.

A. Washburn, public utilities head. The cable is very hard to find, he said. The 1949 swimming season te said to have been initiated at both Smith’s pond and in the river. For the first time in a few years, the Oxford Fish and Game Protect­ ive Association is holding its month­ ly meeting in Ingersoll. It will be May 26, town hall, at 8 p.m. Thegood fishing and hunting in the county can be largely credited to the efforts of the association, and it is hoped more Ingersoll- sportsmen will take an interest in the organis­ ation, join and help make the county a real sportsman’s paradise. Ingersoll’s K. R. (Ken) Daniel will again lead Conservative forces in the forthcoming federal election. He was selected at the nomination meeting Monday after being nomin­ ated by Harry Bower, and seconded by Bruce Alexander of Norwich. A Twin Herself She Has Twins Mrs. Harley Quinn, the former Lydia Douglas, gave birth to twins —a boy and a girl—in Alexandra Hospital late last night.

Now both sisters have two children—each a boy and a girl.Mr. and Mrs. Quinn’s pair wegh- T’.-j pounds and 5% pounds. Good News! Town clerk, R. E.

SACRED HEART CHOIR GETS HIGH PRAISE Sacred Heart’s school choir of 35 little ele­ mentary children created somewhat of a sensation at the recent Oxford County musicfestival in Woodstock. Pretty as a picture in white, and led by their nine-year-old con­ ductor, Julie Ann Haduck, they got tremen­dous applause, and the adjudicator said their style and work “has added color to the whole festival and taken from the monotony of ordinary festival work.” Here, in this picture by Jimmy Smith, the little girls and boys are shown after their Woodstock performance. —Tribune photo by Jimmy Smith Jumps In, Clothes ’N All Bags Rare Turtle In Pail Red Shield Drive Still Needs $1,400 Latest reports from Campaign Of­ ficials of The Salvation Army RedShield Appeal for Ingersoll and district show subscriptions to date total ap­proximately $1,700, leaving a balance of $1,400 to accomplish the objective.Leigh H. Snider, Iqcal chairman of The Appeal, urged continued hard work on the part of the canvassersas the only solution to obtaining the objective of $3,100. He said he wasmore than grateful for the support volunteered by citizens in all walks of life, and expressed the hope theywould feel some personal satisfaction in having helped to meet the needsof others less fortunate than them­ selves. Mr. Snider today appealed to donorsto send in their contributions im­ mediately, if they had not been can­vassed, so that the campaign, which officially clu:.es May 23, will not needto. be extended unduly.

Official receipts willbe issued to all donors. Roy Haycock couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw “it” swimming down the stream. Roy was fishing for pikein the North Branch north of Dickson’s when he spotted “it”.“I'd never seen anything like it," he said. “It had the head of a snakeand swam like a fish. I was'y bound I was going to catch it and after about three hours of fumbling and scoopingaround I finally bagged it in a small rapids.” And Roy’s “it” turned out to be areal rarity—a soft-shelled turtle. He didn't know what it was until he tookit over to Harry Sivyer, the town's naturalist, and Harry went through all his books and records to identify therarity. “It is only the second time one hasbeen found in Oxford County—accord­ ing to our records,” said Mr. Sivyer, noting that the other was found atBeachville in 1936. The creature is going to be mounted.Roy said the soft-shelled rarity had an amazing ability to blend itself with any background—rocks, moss or whathave you. With that knack, plus ter­ rific speed in the water, it outma­noeuvred Roy and his bucket for hours. “Finally, however.” he related, “he started up a small rapids and couldn’t quite make it I dashed in, shoes, pants and all, and got him as hestarted coming down.” Mr. Sivyer said the only other placein Canada he'd heard of them haunt­ ing was the tip of Long Point Mr. Sivyer said the creature was aspiny soft-shelled turtle. (Amyda spinifera). The previous specimen,taken from the Thames River, wasgiven to the late Dr. W. E. Saunders Of London,who sent it to the Dept ofBiology, University of Toronto, July 8, 1930. This turtle differs in that the shell is covered with leathery skinand not the horny substance which covers the bodies of the other turtles,and from this it gets it’s common name of soft-shdled turtle, or leather back. The following is an extract from,"The Reptiles of Ontario,” published by the Royal Ontario Museum of Zo­ ology, Toronto.Amyda spinifera (Le Sueur) Ontario locality records are: Ham­ilton Bay and Dundas.

Bee To “Clean Up” Creek Is Suggested By Morrison A municipal system of garbage col­ lection for Ingersoll was recommendedto town council Monday by Dr. O. C. Powers, M.OH, for Oxford. Ingersoll’s garbage and other refuse is presentlybeing removed by private operators. Dr. Powers’ recommendation aroseout of a complaint by H.

Bolt Strikes 25-Room House Not One Loose Feather Flies Cliff Love's friendly neighbors have all got new homes now thank you very much, and the real estate men can call off their dogs. Around 25 of his friends were rudely awakened and dispossessed last Sunday, when a bolt of light­ ning wrecked the top three storey of their home, and sent their lodg­ ings crashing to the ground in pieces. “But so far as we know not one was killed or even hurt,” said Cliff. “It was amazing. Morrice Turner and I looked everywhere, but there wasn't a sign of blood.” The residents of the lower floorstayed on, despite the disaster, but the others vanished while Cliff and Morrice frantically sought new ■pace for them. Finally, they repaired the bat­ tered dwelling, and so not to dis­ turb those in the floor below they borrowed the public utilities truck and ladder and lowered the three top floors on the section still stand­ ing. “And by the time we got it fixed they wqre swarming around us, waiting to get in,”' Cliff said. “I don't know where they went—un­ less they stayed with their friends below.” Now all are comfortably settled once more, with the lightning bolt just a nasty memory. And that, readers, is the miracle of Purplemartinville. St, through A. R. Horton, Ingersoll representative on the county healthunit. Mr. Horton forwarded the com­ plaint to the doctor, then the replyto council. The doctor noted Mr. Piper com­plained “stores on the main street are throwing out garbage in such a way as to be a definite menace.” In­spector Griffiths reported he had checked with various merchants onThames St. (east side) and found “it is the general practice to burn un- salvageable paper boxes, scraps ofpaper, etc.” “There is,” he added, “no garbage burned. We could find noorganic matter strewn around, or any­thing decaying or anything which could be termed a nuisance under theterms of the Act, or in my opinion anything that would endanger health.“Mr. Piper's complaint was meant to try and stop stores from throwing ashes down the bank at the back. Thepractice is gradually moving the ereek (Smith’s Pond creek) over nearer tothe roar of the houses on Water St, and the spring floods washed part ofthe gardens away.” "Therefore, I recommend that a the burning of paper or the ashblowing around, but it could be stop­ ped if there was an organized garbagecollection. He agreed that ashes blow­ ing around was "giving the place abad appearance.” “Therefore,” I recommend that a municipal system of garbage collectionbe installed.” Mr. Horton commented he felt solu­tion to the problem was to make sure the stores have their garbage, and particularly ashes, removed in theregular way. rather than having them dumped at the back.Councillor Leo Ranger said there was no use in garbage and refuse beingcollected, if it was going to blow off the trucks all over the streets. So,he said, he had ordered collectors to put tarpaulins over their trucks. Councillor Morrison suggested thatback of the stores, in the creek area, “it is an untidy spot—a mess.”“It’s been like that for years,” agreed Councillor Wurker.“It would be a good idea to dear out the creek," suggested MayorMurray. “It's awful,” concurred Mr. Morrison. “I suggest some time an organizationor all of us make a night of it Get apair of. rubber boots and get down there and dean the place up. Then itwould be done, and would be a nice looking spot. It wouldn't cost anything,either.” , “One Small Child Goes Out in Order The Hawkins brothers of butchery fame got something new in the way ofan order the other day, and have their delivery slip to prove it.Listed on their slip, along with assorted meats and groceries, was “one small child,” (N. C. — no charge) Andthey delivered her, too. It seems that little Patty Wilson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Wilson,Oxford St., wandered off. By phoning almost everyone in town, Mrs. Wilsonlocated her buying an ice cream cone right across from Hawkins* meats. One more phone call did the trick,and Patty went out with Hawkins’ next order.

T h is Y e?r --------------------------------~ •* Figure Cost Of Project Then W e’ll Okay Funds Queen’s Park Tells Group Ingersoll’s roads are all going to be repaired before th‘0 year is out, it was learned today.When town officials led by Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray, saw Ontario Municipal board authorities in Toronto recently, they were told to get some firm bids for putting the town’s sewer-wracked streets back in shape, and the board would give theirblessing to the project, and grant the money. For the past few days, town officials, together with var­ ious contractors, have been surveying the battered roads thathave given Ingersoll quite a name, to arrive at a final cost to completely repave some streets and repair others. The delega­ tion was told in Toronto they need not return to Toronto, but just send all those details down, and the money would beapproved. But the Queen's park officials, R. S. Colter, K.C., chair­ man of the Ontario municipal board, and W. J. Moore, C-LS., member of the board, warned the Ingersoll delegation this wasto be the last request for funds in connection with the sewer and road program. The money they got this time would have to finish the job. The Ingersoll delegation, which also ihcluded CouncillorT. J. Morrison, E. A. Washburn, manager of the public utili­ ties commission, Clerk R. E. Winlaw and Town Solicitor War­ wick Marshall, was advised to draw up a resolution for raisingthe money, give it two readings, then send it to Toronto. “We were told we would get the money,” The Tribune was told, “just as soon as we could show them exactly what it would cost We got a great reception and it was a goodmeeting.” It is expected a special meeting of council may bd held to-night to draw up the resolution to go to Toronto. Several contractors have expressed ability to start work right away. Tractor, Wagon Is “Chariot” As Newlyweds Piped Around' I Play was resumed Monday night for the Albert Quait Trophy, which represents the five pin bowling championship of Ingersoll. At seven o’clock, the Tigers, of the Commer­ cial League, nosed out the Hydrogang in close games to win by 55 pins, the totals being 3273, 3218. At 9 o'clock the Oxford Dairy team and New Idea also made it close, with the Dairy rolling 3150 to the New Idea's 3118. The Morrow “A” team after a bad start, which found them down 90 pins the first game, came back strong to rack up 3252 agaisnt tre Legion Bears' 2987. The Morrow "A" won the bye and on Friday night at 8 o’clock, the Oxford Dairy and the Tigers play, the winners to meet the Mor­ row team for championship, May 25. A group of neighbors of the Mc- Diarmids, Harris St, got a bright idealast Saturday and as a result a pair of newlyweds, Muriel McDiarmid andReginald Rennie, got a wedding pro­ cession just out of this world. They dashed out of Trinity UnitedChurch in a hail of confetti to find drawn up at the curb a rubber-tiredfarm wagon gaily decorated and drawn by a tractor with a silk-hatted driver. On the wagon was a cosy, decoratedlove-seat with a top-hatted escort, and the chariot was all set to go. The newlyweds were flabbergasted at first, but then piled aboard and offthey went around the town, with ayoung piper, Bruce Fraser, piping mer­ rily away, and the best man, HarveyRennie, the ushers, Ross Leaper and Andrew Allen of Brantford, and thebridesmaid, Dorothy McDiarmid, add­ ing to the unique but gay picture. Everyone gave credit for the ideato William Allison, who also drove the tractor. And one seemed to realizethe fun they were having would create such a sensation in the town. Charlie Cowell stood guard betweenthe tractor and wagon. Piper Fraser, who piped the couplefrom the church after the ceremony conducted by Rev. C. D. Daniel, didn’trealize he was about to board the chariot. Neither did anyone else in the party. ,Muriel, the bride, was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. E. McDiarmid.Reginald is the son of Mrs. John Ren­nie and the late Mr. Rennie, Putnam. At the ceremony, Douglas Martin sang,with Harold Riddolls at the organ. The bride, in white, with a bouquetof roses, lily of the valley and fem, was given away by her father. Her sister wore turquoise, with white ac­cessories, and carried a colonial bou­quet of roses and sweet peas. The reception was at the McDiarmidhome, with Mrs. McDiarmid receiving in navy blue, with gray accessories,and Mrs. Rennie in navy blue, with dark blue accessories. For travelling the bride wore a graytweed suit, with navy accessories and carried a corsage of starlight roses.The couple will live in Verdun, P.Q, but where they went on their honey­moon—no one knows.

May Let Workers Build A Diamond Possibility of employees of theIngersoll,Machine and Tool Co. being able to use a piece of town propertyjust south of the plant as a baseball diamond was discussed by town Ku­ril the other night. Councillor Fred Wurker, said, some of the boys had asked if theycould have the area levelled for use as a diamond. “I think it would be agood idea,” he said, “because there are too few recreational facilities outthat way. It would provide a lot of enjoyment and keep the youngstersoff the streets,”Town Solicitor Warwick Marshall, is going to cheek on the extent of theproperty, and it seemed likely the re­ quest would be okayed. Challenge Engine To Be Displayed Ingersoll is going to get a look atthe huge 2,500 horsepower Rolls Royce Griffon engine that will carry Inger­soll's—and Canada’s—hopes in theHarmsworth trophy speedboat race at Detroit this July.For weeks now, the engine has been at the Machine Company plant being modified for placement in the newhull under construction at Graven- hurst. it is-almost ready, and beforeit goes north it is hoped to put it on display somewhere in the town, poss­ibly this week-end.Please watch the Tribune window for further details. May 24 on May 24 Mayor Declares May 24 holiday will be celebrated Tuesday, May 24 so far as the town is concerned, Mayor J. G. Mur­ ray informs The Tribune. Informed there seemed to be some doubt in the minds of many whether it would be Monday, to moke the long week­ end, or oln Tuesdayr the mayor pointed out the town—nor any comm unity-had no power to change the statutory holiday. It would re­ quire an act of parliament. 2 Local Heifers Take Plane Trip Fred R. Thornton, of R. R. 1, Tham­ esford, has been raising Holsteins since1912, and now, for the first, a couple of his heifers are going high and mighty on him, and going for a planeride — a long one. The pair are flying to Ecuador, and are thought to be the first in this areato make the trip. “Wish I was going with them,”said Mr. Thornton. “It’d make a real trip, I think.” The animals are going first to Oak­ville, and will board their plane at Malton, along with a bunch of others. "They’rt really anxious for high­grade cattle <b»wn in the south—there should be quite a market down therefor us,” said Mr. Thornton. MRS. H. T. BOWER HOSTESS TO GROUP Mrs.1 H. T.

Hurdles Pews, Saves Girl As Candle Fires Her Veil Cool-headedness and quick think­ ing on the part of several people averted what could have been a real tragedy at Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church Sunday. During the May Processioa, in which a number of girls wearing white communion dresses and veils took part, the candle carried by one set fire to her veil and in a moment her head was a torch. The girls to either side of her moved quickly away, so the fire wouldn’t catch their veils, and the girl on fire, recalling an occasion when several girls were badly burned be­ cause one ran, fanning the flames, stood still and awaited the help she knew was coming. And it earn.- in dramatic fashion.’ Patrick C. Houston, on the far side of the church, didn't hesitate a second. The moment he saw the flames he began hurdling pews, step­ ping over men, women and children. He jumped over one lady with a child on either arm at the same time taking off his eoat. Before many people knew what was going on, he was at the girl's side, his coat smothering the flames, and ending possible catastrophe. The girl, who was back at work Monday, received slight bums around the head and her arms. At first she wanted to continue with the aer-vice Sunday, but was persuaded by Mrs. Tom Morrison, ■ nurse, to leave, and Mrs, Morrison treated the.burns. The Tribune was told by a wit­ ness that the veil caught fire as the girl bent over to adjust a kneeling bench. It was Bl| over in aero nds. , All wondered at the ngility of Mr. Houston, who ia better than middle-aged, and all lauded his quick action. Several other men were right behind him with their coats at tb*girl's side. The aerrire continued.

LOOKING BACKIn the Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario Member Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association Authorized as second class mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa. THURSDAY, MAY 19, 1949 The Salvation Army - - - Alchemists of the Street Recently religion rolled up its shirt sleeves and went to work—and got results. There was a mother on the other side of the world whose daughter in Canada was in jail charged with murder. The daughter, a Scottish war bride, was accused following the pistol shoot­ ing of her husband. . Here in Canada, with only acquaintances for friends, the girl would take her place on the docket, hear accusers accuse, then tell her own story. Minutes would become years and hours would verge on eternity as she awaited the juror’s reply to the question:’ What is your verdict?” But the bride was not left to face a strange world alone. It was The Salvation Army, those al­ chemists of the street who changed despair into hope and by-passed glib mutterings of charity by putting sympathy' on the gold standard—they found the mother in Scotland. In her shabby purse were stuffed four one pound notes; in her hand was placed a ticket, a ticket which landed the mother in Canada. For 20 minutes every day in Lindsay she visited her daughter, radiating hope and understanding and giving that which only she can give, a mother’s love. The seed of sympathy sown by The Salvation­ ists took root and spread. Canadians, known for their giving, soon contributed enough to buy the mother clothing and set up a modest bank ac­ count. War brides held a shower, adding $110, to the mother’s fund. The Red Cross,, too, was kind. So were others. Which means that Canada has a heart. A heart that gives, gives life. And it all began with the quiet service of "The Army of the helping hand.” “Stay At Home” Week Good Idea for Ingersoll When Rev. Carman J. Queen of St James’ said people of todny are spending too much time "doing things’’, instead of devoting it to their homes and their children, he certainly said “a mouthful” so far as Ingersoll is concerned. Perhaps it is because we are in the newspaper business, and expected to "cover” all these meet­ ings and activities, that it seems so unusual, but we have never known a community with so many things going on—every night. There seems to be hundreds of organizations and groups and com­ mittees and circles, and there isn’t a night in the week that there aren’t four or five meetings going on. The big drawback is that many people belong to at least several groups, and as a result they’re going all the time, and home is but d place to grab a bite and overnight rest—if the meeting is over in time. Far be it from us to criticize a person taking an interest in his community. He would be a poor one if he didn’t, and so would the community. But if he or she is forced to go to something overy night, then any benefits are nullified. En­ thusiastic endeavor becomes drudgery. The con­ tinual whirl becomes increasingly tiresome and tiring. Home and family life is non-existent. One’s home should come first One’s greatest contribution to any community is maintenance of a happy, healthy Christian home, where the meals are a happy social time, and not a quick bite, a hasty kiss, a couple* of pats on the head and mad dash back to some other meeting. The greatest asset to any community is its children, and you owe them a great deal of your time, particularly in their formative years. And, besides, there is nothing quite so pleasant as a restful evening at home. We have a suggestion to make—stolen from a friend who does her share of attending meetings, and whose husband also does a great deal for.fthe community. The suggestion is that Ingersoll 'de­ clare a “stay at home” week. During that week, there would be not one meeting. The . families would enjoy a week’s companionship. Meals would be taken slowly and in peaceful enjoyment. The families would see something of each other. Everyone—including the town—would benefit. Tommy Daniel, son of the M.P., is wandering * around the countryside these days with a gadget new to those parts. And now there’s a great panic in the fly, mosquito, moth, ant, cockroach, etc., populations. He has a machine which spews out anti-insect fog and all he does is put a hose into the house or barn getting the treatmeht, shut the windows and the doors,, turn on the tap and sit 1 back and wait while the piles of assorted insects are shovelled out. According to Tommy, after one fogging of a few minutes, no self respecting bug will go near the place for months. Tommy tells how a ball game was held up one night because the air was full of insects. Equipment similar to his was brought in, the fog was laid, the bugs -'left, the game was on. Also if the mossies are took thick at garden parties, Tommy says his fog will make the place like Eden. Bugs, it’s a hard life. What Others Say s Love, The Cure The case of a patient who was cured of a ser­ious skin disease when he began to forgive some­one instead of hating him, was quoted by Dr.Leslie Weatherhead, of the City Temple, London,in a report on spiritual healing. Dr. Weatherhead told delegates to the Metho­dist conference in Bristol the British MedicalAssociation thought the time had come when min­ isters and doctors, in certain cases, could profit­ably work together, and added: "In many cases of people in deep physical dis­tress, the origin of their symptom’s is not in thestructure of their body, or in disorders of themind or nerves, but in an emotional state."To change one emotional state for another is a means of curing such people."I could give you case after case where peoplein deep physical distress, whose cases have beendeclared incurable, have been cured when theyaccepted love of God and allowed it to replace hate, resentment, jealousy, fear, and malice.”—London Sunday Chronicle. Not For Sale ■Some people appear to have the idea that theway to get a piece of news or some editorial material into a newspaper is to pay for itSome who think like that are honest and sin­ cere. Others are not so honest and sincere. Andin the latter class is the person who thinks he canpay not only to get something into a newspaper,but to keep something out They are all quite wrong about it There is only one place in a good and respon­sible newspaper where space is sold and that is the advertising columns. What is printed in a goodnewspaper—and what is left out—is for the edi­tors to decide. It is their responsibility; it is their duty. And when the editors decide that a pieceof news or editorial or feature material shall be printed, or not printed, no payment of any des­cription is involved—or tolerated.—Halifax Chron­icle-Herald. Happy Churchgoers A well-known American magazine recently carriedon its front page a picture of crowds emergingfrom a church. The artist had painted happy- looking people. And that is how people emerging from a churchusually look. They are not happy, as some cynic might suggest, to get out of the place, nor evenbecause they are greeting acquaintances and fel­ low-members of the congregation. They are happy because the church has given them something thathuman beings need. There are, of course, other kinds of happi­ness, and it is quite likely that people coming outof any place of entertainment would register pleasure in a photograph. But the Christian re­ligion has it own happiness, and one that is worthwhile. It is a happiness which people should not foregoin the lovelier season of the year which nowtempts them to forget church in the search for pleasures elsewhere.—From the Toronto Star. No Place To Play Three small children have suffered falls fromwindows in the past few days, fortunately with­out harm. Yet considering that they were fromtwo to four years of age, and that they fell in onecase 30 feet, and in the others about 15 feet, they might easily have been killed or seriously injured.The lucky escape of these three suggests that the places where we place our infants to play bythemselves may not always be safe, that we might well spend some time investigating these windowplaygrounds before committing our children to- their boundaries.Every child should have a garden to play in but modem life and the housing shortage has pre­vented this, which, incidentally is a condemnationof our way of living. Because they fell on thegrass they were not hurt, but they might havefallen on the sidewalk.

LettersTo the Editor Anxious to learn something of thehistory behind the founding of TheTribune, the editor wrote Mr. C.Frank Crawford, in New Jersey,who worked on The Tribune many,many years ago. Following is hisreply: “Dear Mr. Lee: Should I feel flattered or the re­ verse to have you suggest that I tell you of something that took place in 1873? I do remember well the Big Fire, but as to the circumstances surrounding the establishment of The Oxford Tribune and Canada Dairy Reporter as it’was known at first, I know nothing, except to re­ call father bringing in a copy and telling that it was just started. While I worked for him, I came toknow Harry Rowland quite well andalways had a great admiration forhim. He was a portly type of man,with a charming wife, no child oftheir own, but had a little Englishgirl, that I believe, they adopted. He was a progressive man and dur­ ing the time I was with him, put in a gas engine to replace the hand power furnished by the men and boys in the shop, (when the weekly edition was being run off. I remem­ ber that we had a job of NoxonBrothers, of quite a good size book­let and at that time he put in a newcutting machine to replace the old"Plough” machine presently in use.I remember that there was a lot always in our paper about how much better we were than the Chronicle, owned by a man named Gurnet. At that time when we put in the gas engine we held open house one evening and invited the inspect­ ion of the Public to see how muchbetter we were equipped than ourrival, whose power was a horse,though I never did know where heoperated. Announcing the openhouse quite a splurge was made of the number of presses we had and I guess I must have been^working on setting it up, for I went downstairs with the‘copy in my hand and said to Mr. Rowland: "We1 do not have this number of presses”, and, in his kindly way, he said: "Did you count the proof press and this let­ ter-copying press? By the way when I was in your plant on one ofmy visits, I saw that same proof­press, the only piece of equipment of the old days that I saw. In a few words I would say of the Harry Rowland that I knew, that he was a friendly gentleman, a good citizen and a good boss. I have al­ ways understood that he was a grad­ uate of the New York Tribune in the time of Horace Greely. I know he was a member of Samaritan Lodge of Odd Fellows, of whichmy father and one of my brothers were members, and if there are anyleft of the members of his gener­ ation and you could contact them, they could tell you more than I know about the man. I hope that something I have written may be of help to you and I am pleased to give it to you, but you must not forget that the lapse of years andthe activities I have experienced during those years, have dulled thememory of many of what may havebeen outstanding things that would have been more interesting and en­ lightening than what I have writ­ ten. I am still hopeful of some time paying another visit to Ingersoll and of paying a call on you and find­ ing the streets useable for an auto. Yours C. FRANK CRAWFORD. doing all the griping now.” <As the only two ex-councillors ’doing the griping, and the referenceis so obvious, we would like to re- ' ply as to what gives us the gripes, ■ and trust, that you give,, us thesame prominent space as you did 1 the article in question. For the record and Mr. Pittock’s information: Years ago we proposed in council that the sewers be laid as an unemployment relief measure. Ex-mayor Alex. H. Edmonds got the Department of Public Welfare to agree to participate and the town would only have to pay 33 cents on the dollar. The propositionwas shelved because of growing warclouds and as one councillor put it, "IT WOULD RAISE OUR TAXES!” Therefore, we fed the relief recip­ ients in 1939, 1940 and 1941, or un­ til the industrial work became more plentiful.We also proposed that a sewer .sinking fund be created and were told by the town solicitor that it would bq illegal. The Act was fiui ally changed and the town started a reserve fund and the money lasted just long enough until a certain ex-mayor knew it was in existence. He spent it on paving.. We are griping because a privatealley was paved and charged to thetaxpayer as a whole. We are griping because we paid from $2.50 to $5.00 per square yard for re-sur­ facing certain streets without ask­ ing for competitive tenders which would perform more than the same work at $1.30 per square yard. We are griping because the sewer pro­ ject on the flats was not laidaccording to the contract, yet, thetown paid an extra $3,700 to have it successfully completed. More­ over, it was the griping at the time that compelled the contractor and council to take some action. If there had been no gripes there would have been nothing done. We are griping because $75,000 was received to repair all the streets . . . and probably would have ... if a pri­ vate alley and certain portions of King, Ann and Oxford streets had not been paved from curb to curb. We are griping because the roads are in a deplorable condition and thecontractors were supposed to havekept the streets in good shape. Weare griping because we did not get a fair deal on what we thought we were going to get and what we ultimately got. Mr. Editor, before this town canprogress, we need one thousandmore gripers and compel those thatagreed to this orgy of spending toreplace the money that they, in their infinite wisdom, voted away. The Department of Municipal affairs informed us that this can be suc- Ingersoll, May 16th, 1949 To the Editor, The Ingersoll Tribune Sir: In your last issue covering the meeting of the Lions Club you quote Mr. Gordon Pittock as sawing, “You’ll note that the fellows doing most of the griping are those who years ago had an opportunity to do the job, but didn’t And they are cesafully accomplished if a civilaction Is instituted.In closing and without resortingto personalities concerning Mr. Pittock ... We both like him even if he does live in the township with low county rates.

The Ackerta have been in Ingersoll for many long years, and thus the following advertisement in the Canadian Plain Dealer,- Ingersoll, of May 2, 1866, will be of interest: x Pumps! Pumps! The subscriber would beg to announce that hfe '■ is now manufacturing the pumps formerly known as AProctor’s Pumps’ but always manufactured by Ackart (sic), who having purchased the busi- ‘ new is no* the sole proprietor, and is prepared to furnish his superior pumps at lower rates than the same articles can be, purchased elsewhere. Persons who pnrshse (sic) of travelling agents and pedars (sic), are always paying a double pro­ fit for no man can travel through the country to take orders thus incurring expenses which have to be made out of the profits from the articles he has to sell and sell as cheap as the manufacturer can at the factory. Mr. Ackart does not intend' sending out agents or pedlars and consequently is under no other expenses than the manufacturing. Mr. Ackart, being a practical pump maker, can manufacture his pumps at as little expense as any one can, and thus sell as cheap. > Biggest Meeting Place We’re still trying to identify a weird and won­ derfully coloredmoth Mrs. Nelson F. Soden brought into the office the other day in the hope someone would know what it was. It bor.? all the seat all the folks of this community. In fact, all ofthem never have come together inside four walls and they never will. Yet, the members of thiscommunity do have regular meetings. Their meet­ing place is the columns of this paper.In the columns of the home town paper the country folks meet town folks and exchange in­ timate bits of gossip and news. Through the homepaper people keep up with everything close totheir interests—from church doings and school events to crop conditions on route two. or the newdaughter their friends had.When you stop to think it over a bft, it’s hardto figure how we could possibly have much of acommunity life without this regular meeting ofour members in the home newspaper. We don’tactually meet all our neighbors face to face, butwe certainly do figure that we know them ratherwell. Take away the intimate and stossipy newscolumns and we’d soon have a heterogenousgroun of stritngera.Indeed, the home newspaper does more to spinthe web of a neighborly community life than all the other agencies combined. It’s the acceptedcommunity institution of communication. Whatcould possiblv replace it? The telephone, theautomobile, the mails, or the typewriter mav allhelp, but none of them can do a fraction of thejob performed by the newspaper.That’s why, incidentally, (incidentally to youhut downright important to us) an inch of adver­tising space in the newspaper is worth treble andmore an equivalent space in any other known medium to the folks doing business with thepeople in this community—Barrie Examiner.

The only thing it lacks is colour, and a glimpse of the inhabitants.True, the book contains those sup­erb photographs by Karsh of theisland’s leading personality in public life, and so alive are the por­ traits that they hardly need the bi­ ographical sketches that go with them. And there are pages of strik­ ing photographs of the country’s harbours /md air-ports, coasts and villages, but in all those fifty scenes there are only five which have even a glimpse of a human being. Er-'U. Pratt’s splendid poem on on Newfoundland opens the book bringing the feel of the sea and the strong ebb and flow of the tide against her coast. Then come the scenes by Cyril Marshall with des­ criptive notes; then a short historyof the colony, by Brian Cahill; andfinally the biographies of the menactive in bringing Newfoundland into Confederation. Other material of interest onthis subject has been' produced by the Canadian Geographical Journal which for. its April issut has several special articles on Newfoundland. The Society has also issued a book­ let in the same style as those re­ cently brought out on the other provinces. The library has also re­ ceived for the last two years copiesof a periodical called The Atlantic Guardian, which brings the provincemore vividly to life than any of these other publications.

The resolutions were approved at the annual meeting of Zone B2 here last Thursday when officers were elected and a charter was presented to Beachville branch of the Can­ adian Legion.Over 100 men and women crowd­ed the Legion hall for one of themost successful meetings ever heldhere. Six of the eight branches ofthe zone were represented-Norwich,Beachville, Tillsonburg, Ingersoll, Woodstock and Embro. The two resolutions, approved by the meeting were: The first “that whereas in 1947 softball social members were allowed to participate in Legion sports, -we resolve that this practice should continue and be included in the rules of LegionSports.” The second read: “That whereasin the past two years this branchand zone have made a resolutionthat the Provincial Command insistthat Nov. 11, which has been de­clared by the Dominion Governmentas “National Remembrance Day”, be instructed to see that the pro­ vincial government have this en­ forced in the province.” President Cecil Todd of the Beach­ ville group, received the document from President Bert Rutherford of Margaret N.

Zone Commander Frank Harris was lauded for his service during his tenure of office for five years.His re-election covers a two-yearterm. District Commander Mann, pre­ senting Beachville charter, said the new branch was formed underunique circumstances. The organis­ ation meeting had been held 1n a church which reflected community interest in the work of the Legion. So far as could be ascertained, Commander Mann said there was no parallel case on record. The housing shortage from ' the veteran’s viewpoint was deplored by District Commander Ray Mann. He said there was a shortage of some 400,000 houses in Canada today.He said that Canada’s sons had goneoverseas to fight and thousands had returned only to realize they had nohomes of their own. He urgedgreater action in the matter ofhousing by all the branches of thezone. This, said the speaker, “is « terrific problem and can only be solved by united action.’ Bert Rutherford of the Wood- stock branch, said free educational services on a correspondence basis, were still available to veterans.

The milk is given to all children in kindergarten classes; to children in other grades who need extra nourishment, due to defect*, un­ derweight, bad teeth, etc.; to child- dren exposed to tuberculosis, to build up their resistance to the dis­ ease later in life. This is educational too, as some children do not drink milk at home, but do learn to drinkit with other children.With the high cost of food, manyparents find it difficult to buy suf­ficient milk, especially if there is illness in the family or lack of steady employment The Norsworthy Chapter, LO.D.E., is very grateful to the Girl Guides for giving their time to tag and hope the public will be generous a* mor* money i* need because of the in­creased price of milk. 4 CHILDREN BAPTIZED AT McDIARMID HOME An interesting event took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F.

"Not only is it your right —it is your duty to know what the armyis doing. With world conditions as they are, with Canada taking a dailygreater par£ in world affairs,the needfor maintaining an army is obvious.Another conflict will be world wide and Canada’s effort will be a nation­al one. “These days a modern army is acostly affair. But if by maintaining a strong army we will help prevent another conflict, with its tremendouscost in life, property and human val­ues, then it is not an expensive luxury we can afford to cast aside. Even if we can’t prevent a war, but by having astrong army we can shorten it by evena few days, then it is well worth while.” It was necessary, he said, to have acomprehensive long-range training program to build recruits into a realfighting force. "We need an adequatesupply of young men to be our leaders- to man the intricate weapons of mod­ ern war; and we need a fully-informedpublic behind the army and its plans.”Muit Prepare NowThe last war showed he said, it wastoo late to begin training after a war had begun. And now there was plenty of modern equipment available to allunits for up-to-date training. "But weare short of men. Wc can’t provide enough NCO’s and officer candidates because we haven’t enough leading menfor the selection necessary. If the cit­izens of the community arc behind usthey will automatically influence the general public, and men will automat­ ically want to join.“One of the big contributions you canmake is to know what is going on, be satisfied it is good and in the interests of the country, and get behind it andmake it go.”In conclusion, the brigadier said:"We have the leaders, we have the equipment and we have the plan. Butwe can’t train an army unless the pub­lic support it and influence men intojoining. The future of Canada’s army, and this country, is in your—the lead­ ers of the community—hands.”Rev. C. D.

Then they were inspectedby Col. Wilkins and his party, to­gether with Major J. C. Herbert, ‘school principal; R. W. Green, chairman of the school board; K. R.

It's a costly tendency, too. For one bit of disrepair soon leads to another. Wood deteriorates when the paint wean off. A broken post undermines the whole fence. It payt to mate your rtpaht promptly. That goes for indoor improvements, too. You save money, time and material, by attending to home repairs right away — before the damage gets worse. And every improvement adds to your comfort and to your pride in your home. If you need more money than you haw on hand to pay for the necessary repairs, see your B of M manager about a low-cost loan. Save by paying cash. And save yourself trouble by paying off all repair bills at once. Why not nuke a list of the repairs your bouse needs today?, Then discuss your improvement plans with your B of M manager... in confidence. You’ll like his helpful attitude.

It was an ex­ cellent performance throughout” He singled out Flenniken’s plat­ oon, then said: “Girls, your drill was grand to watch. The way you performed indicated you had work­ ed hard and taken a great deal of care.”And the way the girls marchedarms up like a precision squad, was a treat to watch.Mr. Green said: “The cadet in­ spection is always the highlight ofthe year. I want to congratulate youall on your splendid performance to-night This training develops not only strong bodies but a strong sense of discipline and well being that will stand you in good stead later on.”“All Excellent” Said Lieut Irwin: “It is hard tofind words to describe your displayhere tonight It was all excellentfrom start to finish.

Your staff have done a marvellous job, but they couldn’t have done so had you not been fully co-operative and keen, too.“You deserve a lot of credit and the people of Ingersoll should be- very proud of this grand Institution,this 109 Ingersoll cadet corps.” Col.

Advice regarding crops, fertilizerand care of gardens will be availa­ ble locally through governmentauthorities.2. How much you plant depends uponthe amount you will use and theamount that can be stored. 3. The size of garden will limit vege­table crops that can be grown sothose vegetables should be plantedthat have the highest nutritionalvalue. Spinach, squash and carrotshave high Vitamin A content whiletomatoes, because they are a splend­id source of Vitamin C, should also be grown.4. We remind you of the early andlate cabbages when you buy plants.The early ones are quite green thr­oughout but cannot be stored andthis also applies to the red variet­ies. The hard white kinds are ea­sily stored for winter use.5. Beware of thick sowing of seeds.It wastes seed and increases the labor of thinning. To mark rows ofslow-germinating seeds as carrots and beets, plant an occasional rad­ish seed in the row. This will growquicker and act as a marker.6. To extend the season of such cropsas beans, peas and corn, two or thr­ee sowings may be made at intervalsof 10 days to insure succsessivecrops. This also applies to lettuce,carrots, beets and spinach. .Now while the gardening is in fullswing you may require a list of quick­ cooking dishes, so look over our list Appetizers: Orange juice with a squeezed mint leaf; canned consommeserved with cress, quick potato soupwith a minced leek.Main Courses: Parboiled saus­ages, covered with a tin of tomatosoup and baked; eggs broken intomashed-potato-lined baking dishesand cooked in oven; kippers poachedin milk, fried fresh trout and frenchpotatoes; cole slaw and cold meat;macaroni and cheese, spaghetti and meat balls.Desserts: Sliced bananas, with milk and maple syrup, coloured creampuddings, canned fruit, rhubarb pie-lets, and also crackers and cheese.SUPPER DISH % cup macaroni% tsp. salt1 tin vegetable soup 2 apples6 cups boiling water 4 pork sausages%tsp summer savory1 tbsp butterCook mac&roni in boiling water un­ til tender, then drain.Cut sausagesinto inch pieces and combine all theingredients together except apples.

By EVELINE A. LONG What a glorious experience is this in which we take part each year, this resurgence of Spring. Everyone rejoices in it even if he is unconscious of the reason for the uplifting of the spirit that comes with the season. We are still so much a part of tne earth fromwhich we sprang that the spirit thatmoves the birds to sing, the wild thingsto creep from their holes, the trees to break forth in leaf and the grass togreen, is with us and in us too.From the first piping of the songsparrow, and he’s very likely to trill hisforecast of Spring on the first mildand sunny day in March, until thearrival of the golden oriole with hiswood-notes wild, we are living in amiracle, the commonplace, the readily accepted miracle of renewal. The rushand hurry of all nature to reclothe herself in beauty is a marvel we acceptwithout awe, and yet if we had neverbefore seen it, if it had burst upon adrab world for the first time, whatecstasy it would cause. How menwould stand and stare and Hasp theirastonishment to sec a seemingly dead tree begin tn push forth the green buds,and over night to become crowned witha froth of glistening, green. With whatawe would he see the grass push itsway out of the brown earth and themyriad flowers hurry forth to deckit And how he would wonder to hearthe lively notes issuing from the song­birds’ throats. And yet it is all just as magical asit would appear to the stranger fromanother sphere. It happens year after year, and as we are apt to accepteverything that comes to us without price, we thoughtlessly accept this, surely the most beautiful gift in the bounty of the Great Giver.I don’t think that Science has everexplained the reason for so muchbeauty. A Creator who desired merelyto replenish the earth could surely have done it efficiently and drablyenough. He didn’t have to present us with a picture that enchanted the eyeand stimulated the senses. No. It musthave been that we were meant to warmourselves at the altar of loveliness andthereby get a glimpse at the Love thatdesired and arranged this happiness.for man. We, like the birds, should sing a paean of joy for springtime, andif, unlike them, we are not gifted witha musical throat, it can still be a songin the heart PLAN SPECIAL COVERS FOR NEW STAMPS An enjoyable evening was spent bythe joint stamp clubs of Woodstockand Ingersoll Thursday evening atthe Y.

Buck:Robert Frost, in a poem called "Mending Wall” wonders why heheeds to mend the fence that sep­ arates his property from that ofhis neighbor—in fact he wonders .why there should be a fence at all.“He is all pine and I am appleorchard, My apple trees will never get acrossAnd eat the cones under his pines” I tell him.He only-says: “good fences make good neighbors,”Since this was written after 1900 Frost was dearly more modem than his neighbor. Though the far­mer nowadays may not need, to any great extent, a protecting barrier,this was not so in pioneer times. In fact there were rules and regulationsabout fences in the early days. A fence was an absolute necessityfor the settler of Upper Canada, had to build some sort of protectingwall against the surrounding forest Otherwise the animals which inhabitedit would walk into his clearingsplanted with Indian corn, turnips or wheat and destroy his precious crop.Bears and deer were worse enemies than wolves. Also, the early farmers had to protect themselves againsttheir own cattle allowed to roam the woods for pasture. Any poor settlerwho had weak fences was sure to give trouble to his neighbors and to lay it up for himself. A low fence was illegal. (In the first recorded minutes of amunicipal meeting in Ontario Countyis this interesting item: “A record of a meetingfor choosing the town officeand other regulations for the towns of Pickering and Whitby at the house ofSamuel Munger in Pickering, March 7th day 1803—David Lloyd and Abraham Townsend, fence-viewers—voted that no fence be lawful except it measure 4% feet high and >2 feet at the bottom, the rails not tobe more than'4 inches apart”) The problem of fencing, then was second only to that of clearing the land. As soon as the trees were felled,the settler chose those which would make a good fence for his acres andreserved them from the fire whichwas to devour the resLSome fanners left the logs in the “slash” which wereto make the rails. Cut to lengths of two or three rails, they were less apt toburn. After the burning they were drawn out. Oak, Chestnut, Pine, ce­ dar and black and white ash werethought to be the best woods. Major Strickland in writing of fen­cing in Canada West says of these woods: “These kinds of timber willlast about thirty years. Basswood is more commonly used for the first fences, because it is-’to be procuredin greater abundance and splits more easily; but as it will not last morethan 10 years I would not recommendsettlers to use it if any other sorts can readily be obtained." He also mentionsblack walnut being often used on farms along the Thames River, nearWindsor, for fence rails. Thus the pio­ neer chose these beautiful woods and cut them into eleven or twelve footlengths and began the hard work of railsplitting. The rails were left thislong so that two lengths of rails would equal a rod of fence. A deep axe-cut in one end made the entrance for a wedge driven home by blows from a maul, another cut,more wedges of wood, and the log split in two.The halves were cut intosmaller parts and put into piles. When the field was ready to be sown he took his rails and laid them aboutthe clearing in a zig-zag course, the heaviest first with their ends over­lapping about a foot A careful manmight lay blocks of pine or a fieldboulder under each of these cornersto keep his rails from rotting. Above these he laid others, from five to eight until the fence reached theheight of his head or shoulders. Then he drove shorter rails, pointed at oneend, into the ground at an angle dose on each side of every corner and allowed their tops to cross. When alighter pole or rail, called a “rider,” was laid in the crotch formed bythese rails, the structure was furtherheightened and more securely tied to­ gether. The result was a “snake fence.”To clear and fence a field like this cost a settler, if he hired laborers to do it, from eleven to fourteen dollars Dr. Beaven, in recording his journeyin Canada West says of this type offence, "By far the most popular fence is the snake fence....a very durableand efficient mode of enclosure, rather awkward indeed and straggling,but at the same time very picturesque. Its zigzag course gives it its name,” This was the type of fence builtby nearly every settler after be hadmade his first burning. However, lack of time sometimes forced him to con­ tent himself with a temporary pileof logw laid on top of one another along the boundary of his clearing and supported by tall, stumps or postsdriven into the ground. Almost as rough was one made of small round rails or branches, four to nine inchesthrough, laid horizontally with their ends resting on each other alternatelyand kept upright by strong stakes driven into the ground, one on each side of the place where panels joined.It was much less rigid and substantial than the snake-fence.Rev. Isaac Fidler throws light on the fencing problem. He writes: "Theonly thing during our Canadianresidence with which Mrs. F. seemed to b*' amused, was the frequent visitswhich the cows and sheep of our landlady made into the forests and pastures of other people, and whichher neighbor’s cows and sheep made into hen. Almost every week the land­lady mounted her pony, and rode into the forest in quest of her livestock. Some times she continued seeking themfor two or three days together, before she found them. It occasion­ ally happened in consequence,we passed a day without cream to our tea. This wandering of her cows andsheep arose from the neglect of trav­ elers or neighbors. These, in passing through her groves, omitted fre­quently to replace the rails of her fences, and her cattle, and other stock, found their way through theopening. There are in Canada, as in the State*, few fences of stone or earth— , Another primitive kind was the win­ drow or bjush fence. This was merelya pile of tree trunks and branches, formed by felling the trees in thesame direction and allowing them to lie as they were. It was only a make­shift, disorderly, and condemned by writers who gave advice to immigrantsbecause of the future difficulty of clearing up the entangled brush and timber. It had the certain advantage,however, of doing away with one of the processes necessary in clearingthe land. No special fence had to be built. Also, it did what it was meant to do, stray cattle could not penetrateit, and sometimes it daunted even men. Samuel Thompson tells of a windrowfence he encountered: “Completely blocking the road and full in our way,was a confused mass of felled timber, which we were afterwards told was a windrow or brush fence. It consisted ofan irregular heap of prostrate trees, branches and all, throwrf together inline, to serve as a fence against stray attempts to get over it, Thompson had to summon the owner by shouting. Hedirected Thompson to a place not so impregnable where he got through. TALL MAPLE TREESSAVES THEIR LIVE$The praises of a maple tree are!being sung by Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd I Smith, these days. As it stopped a hugetractor-trailer not ten feet from their front dpor. The truck, driven by Roy Ezard, Jones Ave., Toronto, skiddedon greasy pavement, according to Ezard, as it came into Ingersoll fromthe west on No. 2 highway.It piled into, the tall tree whichstands on the"corner of the Smith lot, and was virtually wrecked. Ezard got one slight scratch fromflying glass, though his cab was crush­ ed. According to the driver, the truckwas just one week old. Scattered here and there, in add­ ition -to paint, were several books -"Let’s Travel on." Mr. Smith said when the crashoccurred, he thought it “just a clap of thunder," pulled the covers overhis head, and ducked back to sleep. Mrs. Smith, however, thought ithad a familiar note, and dashed down­ stairs to find the truck a wreck against the tree. “We’re getting usedto this sort of thing now,” said Mrs. Smith, trying to remember how many trees, hydro and phone poles andverandas had been wiped out on their property by other skidding vehicles. Constables Fairservice and Chislet,investigated. When the rails of the snake fence have been carefully replaced uponrotting, these fences have lasted on mapy farms to this day. But even inthe “40s” some of them have decayed,or the fanner had wished to have a neater one. (Also,they took up a lotof space, that could have been used otherwise to sow grain.)
