MAYOR MINSHALL AND DAUGHTER, MARION
Young Stan Minshall was running his milk rotite one day
when he saw a gray, bent old man busy cleaning out a pig pen.Up until then, Stan hadn’t minded the farm and the milk
route, which he had built up himself. But then he pictured
himself finishing out his life cleaning hog pens, and he de
cided to seek his fortune in other ways.Today, young Stan was back in his old stamping grounds
—Ingersoll—as one of Florida’s most important florists, and
even more important, as mayor of St. Petersburg, one of Flor
ida’s biggest cities, and probably the one best known toCanadians.

ENGAGED
. Went To Collegiate
Mayor Minshall, bom on a fann near Mt Elgin, and
educated at Ingersoll collegiate, canie up by car to see hismother, Mrs. Frank Minshall, Charles St. W., and his sister,
Mrs. John Winterbottom, who lives at Hagies’ Comers.
The Tribune was able to tell Mrs. Minshall her famousson was on his way home because The Tribune called him in
St. Pete the night of the election to offer congratulations.
It’s a big day for me,” he said. “The city hall is only a
block away from my shop here, so it‘11 be pretty handy.These elections are strictly non-partisan, of course, and how
much he accomplishes, depends upon the man himself. We
have a $1,000,000 city,hall here, and I expect to be verybusy.”
Mayor Minshall, 50, went to Florida in 1926. After quit
ting the farm, which is now the Caffyn farm, he sold Fuller
brushes, then answered an ad, and wound up with Gammageflorists in London.
Was Chief Designer“He became their chief designer,” - - • -
Minshall, whose husband died in 1944. ________
wreaths, casket covers, special bouquets and all that sort of
thing. He was always good in art, and he took to this rightaway.”
Then he managed a Gammage store in Owen Sound,
where he met his wife, the former yerna Laird, and then
headed to Toronto to become chief designer for Simmons.
“A St. Petersburg florist watched him working and suggested he go down there and take over his place,” the proud
mother continued. “He went. Stayed with the man a year,
then opened, his own place. He is known as Minshall theFlorist”
Mayor Min&hall’s win was quite an upset In the primary
vote, he polled 2000 votes less than another candidate for thespot But in the final vote, the position was reversed, with
Minshall, -a one-time vice-mayor, and member of the state
government getting^ nearly 3000 more than his opposition.
Mayor For 2 Year*He will be mayor for two years, taking office July 1.
Said the St. Petersburg Times, in. a front page editorial
on the election, headed “The people win again”: “We thinkStanley C. Minshall has an opportunity to become one of St
Petersburg’s best mayors .... We’re convinced we have anoutstanding mayor^elect.”
Mr. Minshall. an expert debater as a youth, served in thestate legislature in 1941, but was defeated for re-election the
next year. He was first elected to city council in 1939 and was
named vice-mayor in 1942. He acted as mayor during the
mayor’s illness jand turned down previous invitations, to runfor mayor.
He is a.33rd degree Mason—the only one in his county.
He is also, a member of the Kiwanis club, the Chamberof Commerce and many other organizations. He has two
daughters—Marion and Dorothy.
Back in 1917, during the first
world war, G. R. Heenan got a bitof leave from the army, so wentto visit his family in Ireland. Hehad about a week, and he saw his
mother aind father and his brothers
and sisters. Then he returned to the
wars, then back home to Canada.
He didn’t see one of his sisters,
now Mrs. R. C. L. Brandon, again.
Until yesterday morning.
Yesterday, brother and sister met
in Toronto Union Station after 32
years. Today brother and sister are
home in Ingersoll talking over a
few of the things that have happen
ed to each other during that period.
It is Mrs. Brandon’s first visit to
Canada.
Mrs. Brandon had been living inPurley, Surrey, England, with another sister, Mrs. Charles H. Baynes,
who has spent a large part of her
life in Burma. Mrs. Brandon’s trip
to Canada came after long months
of planning, requesting and waiting.
When finally word came she wasen route aboard the Empress ofCanada, there was great excitement
in the Heenan home.
“Oh, we’ll know each other,”
chuckled Mr. Heenan, as he set off
for Toronto to get his sister.
. Mr. Heenan’s family are widely
scattered. He came to Canada in1907. A brother, John L. Heenan,is in Africa. It .is possible, said Mr.
Heenan, his sister may now remain
in Canada.

And Still She Climbs!
The fact THE. TRIBUNE is fast becoming THE newspaperin Ingersoll and the surrounding rural area is clearly shown
by the climbing circulation since January 1, when the 76-year-
old paper came under new management.
This information will interest all readers desirous ofplacing classified ads where they’ll hit the most with the best
results, and will particularly interest merchants, the profess
ions and those with services to offer whd want their message
sown over the biggest area, reaching those sections of thecommunity no other paper touches.
As of January 1, 1949, The Tribune’s circulation was
approximately 1750, witji many copies going out free, and
many going to subscribers years in arrears. A free subscriptionis of no interest to the advertiser, who then cannot be sure the
paper is being read, and thus cannot be certain his message ia
being seen.Today, approximately 2150 Tribunes are printed each
week; and they are, with the exception of those going to ad
vertisers, being paid for. When a newspaper is paid for, it
means it is being read ;Ht means it is interesting and is wanted.And four hundred new people are taking The Tribune becausethey want it; and many more than ever before are paying'for
it, because they want it.
Today, for instance, over 300 copies are being sold on
newstands each week. As of January J, 55 copies'were beingsold.f
That The Tribune is now being recognized as a real ad
vertising medium in Ingersoll and area is shown by the factmore advertising is beipg carried by The Tribune than ever
before, and more and more agencies are using it to spread
their message.

The battle of Ingersoll is over andwon, the smoke has lifted, and the
cleaning done, but the two chaps whoheld off a complete attacking forcefor about 45 minutes, sure put up agreat fightIt was all part of Army Week, toshow the public where its defencedollar is going, and to lure much strength into the army. The whole battle
seemed such a lot of fun, it’s a wonderthey don't make the soldiers pay toget in, and charge them amusementtax to bootAs we mentioned, the two lads at
the North end really did a job. Theyhad one Bren gun, a few rounds, somegrenades, and one pillbox made of
sackcloth, at the other end attacking,were swarms of lads with rifles, grenades, bangalore torpedoes automatics,and—just for morale, of course—a'six-pound anti-tank gun.But while all the qoldiers were cra
wling on their tummies, the officerscasually wandered through the hail,
obviously immune to such things aslead. When--that gun wtnt ofT—eventhough with only blanks—the ground
shook, the trees shook, the kids shook,the flash lit up the place like a flashlight, and the smoke covered it like
a fog. But still the two lads hung on.This too, despite the fact CaptFred Brown on the sidelines, wastelling the attacking force (all OxfordRifles from all over the county) just
what to do, where and when. Finally,with ducks falling and the smell of battle everywhere, and neighbors callingpolice, asking what all the firing was'about, the attackers got the pillboxafire, the two defenders said to H....with it, and the battle was over.P.

It Is Your Duty To Vote
And For The Best Man
On June 27 Canada will go to the polls to
choose a government to look after its affairs. As
■ result, for the next month we, the citizens
are going to be inundated with verbiage—flowery
, and rude—factual and fictional-bright and dull
—clever and insulting. It will be our task to sort
from this babel—truth—and vote accordingly.
It will be no easy task. _
Some speakers are so convincing they could tell
you the sun rises in the west and it would be
hard to disbelieve them. Some will promise the
moon. But always keep in mind it's election time,
and besides, one man's promise does not make a
law; particularly in a house of 248 members—or
more, now that Newfoundland is in. The Liberals
will be lambasting the Conservatives; the Conser
vatives the Liberals; and both will be piling into
the C.C.F. The C.C.F., of course, will be busy out
lining at great length the shortcomings of both
the other groups.
No one will be conceding good in anyone else.
•But that is the big thing you should bear in
mind. Each one is not all bad; everyone 'has his
good points. The thing is—which man, in your
opinion, seems to offer the most- for the good of
(the country. Forget his party. If he is a good
gnan, no matter what his party, the interests of
gountry—and you—will be foremost in his mind.
If all members are elected on that basis, then you
get a houseful of men whose aim is the better
ment of the community—not a houseful of men
who will always be voting the party line, irres
pective of their own convictions. •
Because grampa voted one way or another, is
no reason why grandson should vote that way.
The intelligent voter should listen to all the can
didates. (Find out about him.
Then vote for THE BEST MAN.
And make sure you vote.
The man who is generally criticizing the “bunch
of donkeys’’ running the affairs of the community,
sor province or country, is generally the man who
. was ‘‘too tired’’ or too busy to get out and vote
for THE BEST MAN. Every one with a vote owes
' it to his country and to his family and their des-
, cendants to
GET OUT AND VOTE.
Only One Flag Was Flying
As Ingersoll “Noted” The 24th
Walking the streets of Ingersoll Tuesday one
would never have known it was the 24th of May,
the Queen’s birthday. It seemed more like “gloomy
Sunday.’’
Even we can remember when the 24th of May
meant flags and banners and gay bunting flying
from every home and shop. Kiddies waved them
as they wandered the streets.
. But Tuesday we saw exactly one flag flying
specially for the occasion—from the* Imperial
bank. There was one on the post office and one
X»n the town hall, but they fly all the time.
, Certainly the 24th of May is losing any mean
ing it once had. Now it means just another holi
day, with a few firecrackers let loose at night It
eeems strange, in fact, that we note the birthday
of Queen Victoria and pass quickly over the birth
day of our present king.
The suggestion is made that the 24 th of May,
with its generally delightful weather, be made a
real memorial day for our veterans of all'our
wars.
November 1, in most parts of the country, i£not
. treated as a full holiday, but a two-minute obker-
ance. Surely the men and women who have .died in
defence of their land and democracy are entitled
to more attention than a great, but very late
queen.
To us the suggestion is worth examining—that
we make the 24th of May. a day of national
mourning, tribute and celebration, and once again
we deck out the streets, the home .and the shops
>ith the colors that show our pride in the common-
with the color that show our pride in the common
wealth to which we belong, and the respect we
feel for the men and women who gave their lives
to make it so.
Notes on the Editor's Pad. .
Readers will recall our story and pictures about.
Father Joseph T. Keating, native of Ingersoll,
for whose efforts on its behalf Fordham Univer
sity has named it* newest and most magnificent
building. This week an article on Father Keating
in The.. Ram, Fordham’s newspaper, came to hand,
and it tells how Father Keating has been abed
resting after half a century or more devoted to
the Jesuits and Fordham. The article says Father
Keating came to Fordham to find a debt of
*686,000, and when he retired last year between •
five and six million dollars of new buildings had
been erected. “But now,” read the story,’’ he is
undergoing the-anguish of idleness. Between the
folded sheets he looks a bit strange and self-con
ation*. Father Keating is a man of huge bones and
ample girth. For one who has gained renown in
the secular press as a fiscal genius, it is odd to
note the roughness of his hands, the heavy
knuckles, the strong thumb*. There b little of
the banker about him; little of the banker in the
broad shoulders which still suggest power; Wall
/Street can lay claim to only one part of Father
Keating’s anatomy—the top of hb head." On the
date of The Ram interview , the story says,
“Father Keating lay propped up in his bed with
* copy of the Ingersoll, Ont ‘Tribuns1 spread out
on his knees.” It was the April 14 issue, thatwhich told of his work and the honor done him.
A friend of ours visited the mountain people
of East Tennessee—those people known as hill
billy.—recently and this is what he found." “The
mountain people, their customs and the country
at first seemed as strange as Scotland did on my
first visit there. The Scots, though, were much
easier to get to know. On occasions I have visited
some of the more isolated communities and found
people who I really didn’t believe existed. They
were still using song books (church) that their
forefathers had brought over from England. In
church, when they decided to sing a certain song,
designated by a number, I noticed a few old tim
ers holding their books upside down. Little did it
matter that they could not read as they knew all
of the songs by heart. I find the people very in
teresting and I’ve learned to get along with them,
too. If a hill-boy tells me a story of his seeing a
stinging snake sting a tree and of seeing the tree

The London Prototype records the sudden disappearance of Mr. Isaac Hull, a farmer residingat Lambeth. Mr. H, with that desire of pleasinghis better half, for which married men are sojustly celebrated, induced his wife to take a tripto Strathroy, with a view to making an investmentin dry goods, there being in that town at presenta large number of auctions in progress, at whichthe various articles of female attire could be procured remarkably “cheap”. While away on this
errand of mercy the husband suddenly conceiveda strong attachment for some “dry goods" whichremained at home, in the shape of a Miss Beach,of the tender age of 14. By a little stratagem heincduced the girl to decamp with him, and it is
presumed the loving pair have levanted to theUnited States; as yet no trace of their whereabout* can be discovered. The fellow evidently
had premeditated the affair, from the fact he had
converted the most of his property into money,
which he took with him.
This is a piece of heartless villany, and although we do not pretend to advocate lynch
law, the scoundrel, if ever found in those parteagain, deserves to be treated with a coating ofthe hottest tar and the longest feathers that are
obtainable in the locality—From Canadian PlainDealer, Ingersoll, Wednesday, May 2, 1866.

We Pay For What We Get
The politicians are warning up for next month’sgeneral election. The flights of oratory and the
baby-kissing routines are being practised in privacy under the fond eye of critical wives. The period of promises is beginning.The annua! report of the Dominion Mortgageand Investments Association was therefore timelywhen it said:
“If Canadians are to have all the grandioseprograms of government services which arebeing advocated by adherents of all parties,
then income taxes will have to be just as highor higher than the level from which they wCrereduced—a level to which the Canadian people
objected ... It is difficult to escape the conclusion that the people want more government
services, but do not want to pay for them.”
Politicians as the report pointe out, are under
great pressure to provide more and more services.People want all they can get—until the bill comes
in. But the wise man, in public as in private life,will always remember that the bill has to be paidultimately. We can have either lower taxes or expanded government services. We cannot possiblyhave both.
For every dollar’s worth of goods and servicesproduced in Canada, about 25 cents is now takenby the Dominion or provincial governments or bythe municipalities. . Out of this quarter of thenational income the various governments provideus with public services such as defense, law, highways, education, social services.These are all functions which we require modem governments to undertake. But they are
doing them with our money, and when the taxpayer turns voter he should remember that hehas the last word. It is for him to insist, first, onthe greatest possible economy and efficiency in
every function of government. It is also for himto decide how much of his dollar he wants' tospend for himself and how much he wants thegovernment to spend for him. .If he wants to spend more of it himself, he had
better demand to see the price tag on every newgovernment service the politicians offer him.
And we think the candidates’ wives could perform a great public service during these precampaign rehearsals. They might interrupt their hus‘bands every so often with the simple question:“And what will that cost, deacJ*

Do you feel the urge to brush up
on your hobby this summer? The
Library has received this spring a
variety of booklets describing cour
ses offered by various summer
schools throughout the country. The
moat fascinating one perhaps, is
the Banff School of Fine Arte which
has made itself famous on the con
tinent It offers courses in drama,
music, ballet weaving and other
crafts, play production and art It
has attracted to it as instructors,
some of the outstanding men and
women in these fields.
Nearer home is the new school of
painting opened last summer at Doonon the Grand River at tthe home ofthe late Homer Watson. Severalfrom this district attended thisschool last year. Such well known
artiste as F. H. Varley, R. York
Wilson and Gordon Payne will teach
and this year several prizes and
scholarships are being offered.
Also near home and even more
convenient for the student is the
Summer School at London. Besidesits regular courses the Universityis offering several short courses tothose of the general public who are
interested. They include Athletic
Coaching,-School of Religion, Opera
workshop, Drama and Painting.
The famous Chatauqua organiz
ation has the theme of “education
and recreation’’ carried to a high
point at this unusual town on the
shores of Lake Chatauqua. Sports,entertainment,, lectures fill in aschedule along with courses in all
kinds of hobbies such as photo
graphy and workshops in such things
as social studies, Red Cross and
education.
And speaking of hobbies, there is
a new exhibit of stamps at the Lib
rary. The Oxford Philatelic Society
which from time to time shows ex
hibits of its members has onearranged by George Low which is
creating a great deal of interest
The stamps in this display consist
of Olympic issues, the Silver Wed
ding issues, and stamps from Nor
folk Island, an island in the Pacific
Ocean which is one of the smallest
places in the world to issue its own
stamps. There are also two stampedpostcards addressed to the Clerkof the Division Court of* Ingersoll
in 1893.

Having conducted a survey of 531 men and
women, suffering from headaches of one sort andanother, members of a headache study group at. Columbia University, arrived at the startling
conclusion that a lot of headaches could be curedby the simple therapy of forgetting one’* worries.
The investigators based their conclusion on theresults of three teste: The use of drugs, the useof medicines* which were merely make-believe
drugs, and finally talking to patients about theirworries and inclining them from worry to poiseand peace.Best results came from combining drugs withconversation. This is psycho-therapy, the theory> that by thia subtle entrance into the thoughts ofthe worried one, mental and emotional conflicts
may be discovered, and set right. Once the worryhas been removed the headache flits, and all is
well and happy again within the fevered cranium.How often in days gone by the physician sympathetically regarding his patient, has advised:‘‘Just quit worrying about it, and you'll be allright’’ He was a psychotherapist in times when
there was no such specialist It is no new theorythat worry and its cortcomitant strains and stresses
should bring about headaches—and other departures from health as well—but the art of eliminat-, ing worry is something else. Now mankind needsa little more research on this essential phase ofheadache therapy. He wants to be told just how
to pack up his troubles in his old kit bag, and“smile, smile, smile.”—London Free Press.
The Farm Family
There is no indication, according to replies to
a Financial Post questionnaire, of a widespread fear that mechanization will eliminate or
have permanently disastrous effects on farm fnni-ily life.The question was: “Do you fear the results,social or otherwise, of the reputed decline of thelamuy-opcratcd farm?"While most answers show there has been some
decline, and that social and economic conditionshave been affected, there is disagreement about
what those effects have been. However, moat*unct,°n the farm family in ournational life is at least as important in its socialaspects as it is economically.

weeks r .. then lets them fend for themselves. The result is slow
growth and a poorly developed flock. Instead of starting to lay in
the fall when the price of eggs is high, they start months later
when eggs are cheap. They also tend to be poorer layers than
earlier-maturing pallets.

Dear Editor:
There’s a question I would like to
ask you—it’s been buzzing in my
mind for some time. What do youthink of the national monuments wehave erected, here and there, throughout the Dominion 1 They mark somegreat events, they tell a story of cou
rage and self-sacrifice but timeweathers them—they lose their value—future generations may wonder
what they mean.Would it not be better to establish
living memorials in honor of those■who have contributed to the buildingof the nation? This could be done by
planting forests here and there throughout the country on land suited forthis purpose, not of particular economic value for other purposes. Eachforest would have memorial gates
and a plaque telling the story of thosewe desired tn honor. Time would enh-
.anee the beauty of living memorials.With reasonable care they wouldnever die.There are no monuments in thiscountry to our pioneers. They were
the real heroes of that day, the builders of the nation. With crude tools,with little compensation, in theirearly years of work, they built homesand changed the wilderness into a
smiling happy land. What bettermonument could they have than theestablishment of memorial forests indifferent areas of the province. Theydeserve a living monument, at least
in every county, perhaps in everytownship. All honor to them, they werethe builders of-the nation. soldiers in
the army of the Common Good.

Soon after he returned, he soughtelection to the Government in SouthOxford. The member for that ridinghad been appointed a judge, and Brown
successfully contested the seat in February. In June came the general elections, and once again Brown was successful.During both these periods letters
to his family from various points inOxford County, provide interesting
material on both Brown and the placesmentioned.
Writing from Ingersoll to his wife,February 26, 1863, he says, “well, Iam fairly into it, and I do assure you
I wish I were once more quietly at home. I am persuaded that had I stayedout of it for a year longer I wouldnever have returned, and I would havebeen right However, I am into it for
this struggle, however long I may remain in public life.”
Brown won that contest, and In Junewas forced, by the general elections, tofight for the seat again. Writing from
Innerkip on June 4, he tells hi* wife,“I dropped you a line yesterdaymorning just before starting for Platteville.—carried all before us. In theevening we had a meeting in Drumbo,very large but not so favorable, oneof our discontented candidate* having
opened out on us in a very scandalousmanner. We got through the meeting
at 2 o’clock in the morning, and thenhad eight mile* to drive. It wa* verycold and we did not get to Chesterfieldtill broad daylight. We came here thiamorning, and have had a grand meet-
. ing —swept all before us. I am sitting' in the house of a substantial farmer;have just had a good dinner and amoff for Embro immediately (16 miles)where we speak tonight..
Again in February he wrote fromNorwich, “It is very pleasant to find
how kind everyone is to me—even thosewho are going strong against me—nota harsh word, except for coming todrive out Bodwell, and Bodwell himself is compelled to say all sorts of.kind things. I got to bed at 2 o'clockin the morning, and am off immediately to speak 8 miles from here at noonand 8 miles further on at night. Noone knows how an election will end.Bodwell is a strong candidate—a verystrong candidate; but turn and twist it
can beat me. I don’t feel the slightestdoubt as to the result, but I am fighting fora good majority.”

RED st a r firnwing Mash
COSTS LESS TO FEED <• HERE’S WHY
Six lbs. of Red Star Growing Mash (balance good
quality whole grain), is all the mash required daily for
100 growing birds over 8 weeks of age. More mash
tends to develop pullets too rapidly.
RED STAR GROWING MASH is made from top qualityingredients and is a MASTER MIXERS PRODUCT.
Consider the moderate cost—the small amount required
and the dependable delivery service.
