If the two baulking town­ ships are unable to get together, to make up the 100 per cent., then arrangements will be made to take a vote of the people’of the five communities concerned, the collegiate board decided. The board passed the resolution, which also asks town council to bring in a resolution for issuing debentures for the new collegiate, in the face of fears of Trustee Byerman that the two communities would be antagonized.The. resolution was introduced by Trustee Harry Bower and seconded by Trustee F. C. Shelton. It came after Princi­ pal J. C. Herbert estimated a record number of 105 pupils would be entering the collegiate this year, and the total popu­ lation would be around 305—another record.Those for the resolution were: Trustees A. Richardson,North Oxford; A. W. Little, West Zorra; Shelton, W. Oxford; McLellan, for the separate schools; Trustee Bower. Opposed was Trustee W. J. Weir of Oxford County, and not voting was Trustee Byerman. Two were absent. Then Call a Vote Mr. Weir said that under theproposed allocation of costs a far­mer in East Nissouri might be pay- 'ing twice what the farmer right >across the road in West Zorra was J paying, whether he had schoolchildren or not. On the correctbasis, he felt, every farmer of sim- (ilar circumstances would be contri- (buting the sal re taxes."Our duty ‘ is to provide educa- ; tional facilities for our children.”stressed J. J. McLeod, secretary. , "If we ean't get together on what j we think is necessary, then we must .have a vote of the people.” J "The only fair way for the town- j ships is on the basis of equalized , assessment”, insisted Mr. Weir. “We’ve got to keep this thing j alive—keep pounding at it,” de­ clared Trustee Bower. “There’s no question about tho school being needed.”“It’s not a good idea to get far- .mer against farmer,” warned Trus- ,tee Weir."If we go to a vote—is a straightmajority all that is needed?” asked Trustee Byerman.“Yes,” answered Mr. McLeod. Dangerous Ground*” “Then I’m afraid we’d be oh dangerous grounds,” said Mr. Byer­ man. "If one municipality is willing to take a little larger than it’s regular share, then surely the others shouty be able to take on a little more, to make up the 100 per cent "thought Mr. McLeod. "Ingersoll, with 57 per cent, is doing mighty well. Therest of the municipalities should gettogether to make up the balance."It’s our duty to accommodateand educate our boys and girls,”stressed Trustee Bower."We’ve got to find the money,” said Mr. Weir.“We don’t want to antagonizeanyone," stressed Mr. Bower, "butif we can’t get an agreement, then we've got to have a vote.”"I honestly believe the ratepayerswant school accommodation for their children,” commented Mr. Me Leod.“What happens if we continue to dilly-dally—-what do we do about the children?” asked Trustee Rich­ ardson."All we can do", I imagine,” re­ plied Chairman Green, "is to stagger their school hours—thenf wewould have confusion.""We’ve got to have a school—we’re going to have one—let’s takethe bull by the horns and get going", urged Mr. Richardson. "That’s what I think,” agreed Mr. Green. "Maybe we’ll all bo turnedout, but I feel it’s our duty to dosomething to aid what is becominga very serious situation.” Vote Will Show "I often wonder if these councils are representative of thetaxpayers,” said Mr. Richardson. “That’s what a vote will show,” laughed Trustee Shelton. Mr. Weir said an earlier resolu­ tion some time ago sponsored by Ingersoll representatives, calling for architects "and determined to push the thing through,” "got our boys riled.” “I believe it did more harm than anything,” he said, "and set this whole business back three or four years.”“We don’t want to appear asdictators,” cautioned Trustee Byer­man, “but I think we should tellthem to try and get together on thismatter, and tell them we’re in dead earnest. Let's give them another chance to settle it among themsel­ ves. Let’s not go at this too strongly, and jeopardize the whole business.” rural Pool May Open Next Monday , * Wilson Memorial Swimming pool will probably open the beginning of next week, the Tribune is informed. Painting of the pool is in progress, and while it is possible it may openby the week-end, it is more likely tobe the beginning of next week. A group of men at the Morrowplant, it is learned, have volunteeredto supervise at the pool—freecharge—on various evenings. Hearken To This Sad Tale Of Six Men And Salome AWARDED D.F.C, of Warns Parents About Swimming Don Murphy, general superinten­dent with the Sutherland ConstructionCo. on the Thames Valley project, hasasked the Tribune to warn the parents about too-small youngsters swimmingin the new river channel. The water is pretty deep for non-swimmers, hesaid, and his company is not in aposition to have someone on the look­ out at the “swimming hole.” This is the tale of six men and a pig. The pig’s name is Salome, and shehas the speed of a bullet and thedodging ability of the mustangs back-field. Just ask the six men.But Salome also likes to travel andthereby hangs this tale.It all begins with Mayor Dr. J. G.Murray driving peacefully up OxfordSt. near Ann, the other day, to be suddenly confronted by; the discon­certing sight of one small pig cas­ually wiggling up the centre of theroad. This was Salome, though ofcourse the mayor hadn't met her yet,and didn’t know her name. But,strictly from a veterinarian view­point, of course, he followed her inhis car. She’d obviously not spent allher time on the main highways andbyways because she was mud fromnose to eyelashes, and Iboked asthough she had burrowed from hereto there.Salome, finding the pavement abit tough on piggy corns, ducked inbehind one of the neighbor’s houses, and started to root around in the prize John Cook, 23, Is Named Princess Elizabeth Head John Cook is about to be one of the youngest principals in the country. A teacher at Victory Memorial School, John has been appointed acting principal of Prin­cess Elizabeth School, to take overin the fall when the new five-roomaddition is completed and school is under way. John is only 23. He says he’s "really thrilled.” John, a singer of note, and a "No, I say, let’s do it as we’ve planned,” urged Trustee Bower,mover of the resolution." If theydon't like it, let them kick us out.But this thing has been going on for a couple of years now, and therehas just been one flimsy excuseoffered after another. I don’t thinkthis one particular township has anyintention of building a school.” “I feel like Mr. Bower,’’ agreedMr. McLellan. "We’ve been fiddling around with this ttyng for a couple of years and got nothing done. Seems to me there’s only one coun­ cil buckling this whole thing.” "I’m afraid this resolution is just going to make things harder, not easier,” warned Mr. Byerman. “I don’t think this is the right way. I’d like to see all those townships get together on the remaining 43 per cent, before doing anything drastic.”"There seems to be. a certainamount of opposition to .where the site is going to be”, interjected Mr. Weir.“We have no control over the site,” stressed Mr; McLeod. ‘That Is strictly a matter, for the depart­ ment of education.” “If people ;don’t, see fit to okay this new school, what-gqod are we here?” asked Mr. Richardson. "Crowding is getting worse and worse every year.‘. We know theschool is needed.” JOHN COOK member of the St James’ Anglican Church choir, was born in Clinton, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Cook. He was educated in Clinton, but taking his normal school course in Stratford. He came to Victory Memorial, teaching 6th grade, in 1945, and is completing his fourthyear here. He is now teaching fifth grade.Altogether John has really an ex­citing summer and fall ahead. He’s getting married in July, to Lola Herd, teacher at Chapel school, Woodstock, whom he met at sum­ mer school. Miss Herd will stop teaching, but will no doubt assist her husband in his new position. Miss Jean Borland has been act­ ing principal at Princess Elizabeth School, and will continue as penior teacher. Lions Officers Are Installed New officers of the Lions Club ofIngersoll were installed at a picniemeeting in the Legion grounds Mon­ day night A. G. Murray, a past pre­sident conducted the installations.President is Carl Palmer; secre­tary, Cliff Hines; treasurer, KenEkins; first vice-president, Norm Harper, second vice-president, JackClark; third vice-president, DickMiller; directors for two years, JackCallander and Orville Harris; dire­ctors for one year, Jim Hartnett andJack Riddell; Lion Tamer, DouglasHawkins; Tail Twister, Herb Baker.The retiring president, Bill Haw­kins, thanked members for their sup­port during his term of office and said that in his opinion the year hadbeen outstanding. They had contri­buted $14,200 to the hospital fund,which he thought “very, very goodindeed.” The retiring president presentedthe president’s pin to Carl Palmer,incoming president The gatheringwas entertained by Ashman McEo-chren, baritone, Keith Geddie, violin, and Jimmy Miller and Barry Walker,with Jack Morgan at the piano. Laterdancing was enjoyed, to the musicof Jack Morgan’s Band.Gord. Patterson reported that net revenue from the three-day Lionscarnival was $2,000. Expressing his thanks to all who helped make it a success, includingthe They-go-we-go Club, he said, itwas one of the most successful car­nivals they had staged. He also than­ked the merchants for their part, and mentioned that during the last nightthey had to close the gates becausethey did not have the tickets to sell.A special presentation was made toFred Kimberley, who with his wife, sold $64.10 worth of carnival tickets.Receipts from the carnival are to beused for welfare work, the hospitalbuilding fund and towards the fur­nishing of a $1,200 children’s wardin the new hospital. iris, peonies, etc. for a few tidbits strictly of interest to an eight-weekold piglet It was then life began to Igoexciting for both Salome, and the sixmen. Word of Salome's appearancebegan to spread and soon five stal­ warts of the rural hydro appearedon the scene, equipped with every­thing but a butterfly net, but filledvisions of sizzling chops after a hardday’s work.. These men, incidentally, were Morris Rowsom, Jim McKay,Huck Armstrong, Don Hill and ScootMuir, five brave men, and true. Ofcourse, when this backfield began toadvance, Salome was having none ofit, and the race was on. She was into gardens and out ofthem, over front lawns, down lanes and up steps, with at least six menin full pursuit There was only onesmall pig, but according to one win­ded pursuer it seemed like dozens.The chase went on for minutes, with Salome finally heading for the Y.the home of Christian gentlemen, andshe thought —sanctuary. But shereckoned without Morris and his foot­ball days. Morris was getting a bit puffed, so put his all into the finaldive. He took one run, shut his eyesand let fly. He bagged Salome by theears. The mayor tied a resigned Salomeup, and they started looking for anowner. It seems that one night whenlittle Salome was passing by she likedthe look of Elmer Cunningham’s placewith all those nice animals and things, and decided to stop a while. She’sstill there, but she just had to see how the other half lived over theriver. And that’s how she got up onAnn St. That’s also how six men could have been seen chasing madlydown the street in the middle of themorning after one small pig. That’s why Salome, being a youngpig, isn’t allowed out after dark any­more. Lloyd ArmstrongLloyd Armstrong, 32 CanterburySt., had the Distinguished Flying Cross pinned on his chest by Hon.

THURSDAY, JUNE 16th, 1949 Can’t Blame The Voters If Interest is Half-Hearted There’s little to indicate in this part of the world that there’s an election campaign on. Apart from the occasional poster tacked here and there, an ad now and then in the local press, and a few words of an evening over the air, one can hardly realize that the country is in the midst of exercising its most valuable perogative. It is a far cry from the old days when people took their politics seriously. Where are the street­ corner rallys, the heated discussions, the flying banners, the violent speeches of yesteryear? ’Where is the excitement and controversy good for hours in any park? Where are the candidates? It is said that the voting public is apathetic to­ ward the whole affair; but how can they be other­ wise when given'no leader to champion, no cause to espouse, no controversy to carry, no meetings or public debates to rouse their interest or en­ thusiasm. To get people interested you must give them something to talk about, and not one of the three Oxford candidates has said or done any­ thing in this area to arouse the slightest interest in the election. So far as we know, not one general rally is planned in this area by any of the parties. Why not? So many people are criticized for just put­ ting an X opposite a name, “by guess or by God,” because they know nothing of any of the men or what they stand for. But it is hard for everyone to vote intelligently on the basis of a man’s pic­ ture, or his voice over the air, or his record as stated in the press. You must see him, h?ar him, talk to him, and then judge him, and then decide if he is a fit man to represent your interests in Ottawa. It is our contention that every candidate owes this opportunity to every voter. We feel Ingersoll is big enough and important enough to justify a real political meeting—perhaps with all three candidates on the same platform. That would draw the crowds—that would rouse the interest. We can’t for the life of us, understand for ex­ ample, why Clark Murray, not too well known here, isn’t stomping from daylight to dusk to ' make himself known to every voting man and woman in the area. Few people even know the C.C.F. candidate’s name. Many people know Ken Daniel by name, but perhaps they’d like to see him or hear him. Candidates shouldn’t be elected on a mail-order basis. Let’s not be too quick to criticize the apath­ etic voter. Let’s get after the candidates. To go to Ottawa is an honour that should be fought for, not one to coast into. in the London Arena, and nearly half were FreePress employees—members of the Free Pressfamily.” President Walter, Blackburn, a young sincere man seeking to maintain the high prin­ ciples set by his forefathers, but at the same time keep the Free Press well in the van in modern journalism was chairman. But he presided not as an employer, but. rather as the “father" at the head of the Free Press family table. He knew most by name, and when 30 or more men and women stepped up before him to be honored for 25 years or more service, he shook them warmly by the hand, and called them by that first name. It was employer-labor relations on the highest plane, and if the same relationship Existed among other businesses and industries - - and it requires the co-operation and enthusiasm of both employer and worker - - then the world would be a finer place in which to work and to live. It was indeed a memorable occasion. There was Arthur Ford, one of Canada’s great news­ papermen. There was Edgar Guest, the people's poet, and John Fisher, story-teller extraordinary. There was for each guest a copy of a brand new book which told the story of the Free Press and Western Ontario. There was a special 232 page edition of the Free Press, an edition unsurpassed in Canadian newspaperdom.” An edition which contained- over 1000 columns of reading matter - - over 1,000,000 words; an edition which re­ quired 140 tons of paper. It was a big occasion, done in a big way, by big-thinking people. At the Library Mr., Mrs. ByermanHonored by Friends Marking the 25 anniversary of theirmarriage, Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Byerman,Thamesford, were "at home” Sunday HERE’S HOW IN SPORTS, is a lively book on how to improve yourtechnique in 23 different sports.If you haven’t made use of thispart of the Library come in andlook over the selection. We’ll beglad of suggestions. and 160 friends called to offer con­gratulations, Married at Moffat, Ont­ario, Mr. and Mrs. Byerman (theformer Gladys Elsley) remained therefor some years, later moving to Ing­ ersoll and 10 years ago, to Thames­ford. They have a daughter Muriel,and a son Ronald. Mrs. Byerman’s.sisters, Mrs. W. B.Bowles of Guelph, and Mrs, C. Hef­fernan. of Milton, presided at thetea table. Assisting in serving were:Mrs. Ken Staples and Mrs. GordonBisbee, of Ingersoll; Mrs. Alice Mc­Kenzie and Mrs. H. Wagner, of Lon­don; Mrs. V. Wallace, Mrs. J. S. Mac Murray, and Mrs. T. R. Naneekivell,of Thamesford. During the afternoonMiss Loma Young and in the evening,Mrs. Merritt Hogg, provided soft piano music. Miss Muriel Byerman,was in charge, of the guest book. Anhonoured guest was Mrs. Byerman’s father, Mr. L. Elsley of Milton.Other guests were present from Lon­don, Sarnia, Guelph, Milton, Ingersoll,and the surrounding communities. Advertise in The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll Should Attend These Municipal Affairs It is unfortunate pressure of business made it impossible for Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray to attend the convention of the Canadian Federation of Mayors and Municipalities at Quebec City. Right now everyone is trying to think up bright ideas for “selling" Ingersoll, and making the town and its advantages better known to On­ tario, Canada and the world at large. And where better could a beginning be made than at a con­ vention where leading executives of every com­ munity in the dominion are assembled. The aim* is to get as many people as possible talking, think­ ing or hearing about Ingersoll. At the moment, the town is known internationally for its roads,I but soon they’ll be fixed, and we want people to hear and talk about the nice things. We want people to know about the new hospi­ tal; the most up-to-date sewage system in Can­ ada; our swimming pool and other recreation faci­ lities; our expanding school accommodation, and,| more, the tremendous possibilities from rec­ reational, beautification and industrial stand­ points under the Thames straightening and re­ clamation project. We have unusual facilities to offer, and we haye got to get out and sell them. We can’t do it by ’ staying at home. If Mayor Murray couldn’t go, (we think someone else should have been delegated to go. Such a trip is no joyride, no matter what some people might say. It is hard work-long, hours, a certain amount of study and committee work and dashing hither and thither to dnspect- ■ ions or meetings, day and night. But on such a trip, a man broadens his own ■ knowledge and thus is able to render better ser­ vice to his own community, in addition to the service he does by simply being present and spreading the name, Ingersoll, far and wide. Deserved Tribute I* Paid (, Op Paper’s 100th Birthday A landmark in journalism was celebrated in London Saturday night when the London Free Press had its IQOth birthday, and a big party, complete with cake, candles, members of the family and guests. It was indeed a memorable occasion and it was our privilege to attend, to have a piece of the huge centenary cake and to wish the Free Press well. ! Few newspapers in Canada can look back on j 100 years of recording the history of the world, and serving the people sincerely, honestly and welL A newspaper can be run as strictly a money-making institution, and to hang with the public interest, or it can be managed as a service to the community, with the money-making aspect present, but secondary. It is in this second, truly laudable category that the Free Press, chronicler of. Western Ontario, can be placed. Over 900 people sat down to the banquet tables V Notes on the Editor's Pad .. We have to apologize, but only now have we been able to peruse the two volumes put out by the pupils off Victory Memorial School and Inger­ soll Collegiate Institute—the Bugler and Volt, respectively. Both publications are a credit to the pupils who put them out, and in any way contribu­ ted to them, and to the teachers who gave an assist here and there, In the Bugler, we were struck by a short, simple but to-the-point bit of advice offered by Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray, which we hope the youngsters took full note of: “Boys and girls, make the most of your opportunities. You cannot realize now the importance of your education, but when you are older you will know how nec­ essary it is, if you wish to be successful when you go out to take your place in the world. Co­ operate with your teachers as they are doing their best for you, and they expect you to do your best.” Editor of the Bugler was Margaret Start, with Doreen Uren, assistant. Circulation manager was Patricia Osborn, with Tom McKee, assistant Room reporters were: 7A, Joyce Meckbach; 7B, Barbara Brewer; 6A, Noreen Shapley; 6B, Doug­ las McKenzie; 5A, Walter Statham; 5B, Larry Shier; 6C, Jack Holmes; 5D, Marilyn Crane; 5E, Sandra Mills; 4A, Floyd Clark and 4B, Fay Bur­ nett Department Editors were:—School News and Music, Ronnie Billings; Literary, Bill Crandall; Poetry, Carol Marshall; Health and Safety, Judy Noe; Boys’ Sports, Ted Witty; Girls’ Sports, Darla Mayberry; Guidancd, Bill Pittock; Social Studies, Jean Watmough; Juniors, Margaret Wilson; and Humour, B$tty Brewer. The front cover, a bugler, was drawn by Bill and Eugene Henhawke, and other artists were: Vera Johnson, Margaret Caffyn, Ron Billings, Llyod Embury, Jane Watson, Warren Staples, Brian Chamberlain, Larry Ross, Bobby Fewster, Carol Rooke, Donald Finley, Robin and Bruce Hamilton. The Volt a very handsome publication, is now on sale throughout the town and every pupil and parent should have one. It is one of the best ever put out by the collegiate and is a most complete record, both written and photographic, of student activity in all fields of endeavor throughout the past year. Editor-in-chief was Mac Hyde; assistant editor, Viola McCorquodale; literary editors, Yvonne Holmes, Frances Hqrley, Ken Barrow, Olwen Al- lanson; music, Pat Desmond, Lorna Young; boys’ athletics, Terry Heeney, Bill Montgomery; girls* athletics, Marge Clark, Phyllis Harvey; alumni, Ruth Daniel, Kay Wade; humor, Tom Douglas, Jim Waring; exchange, Jim Muterer; social activ­ ities, Loma Baigent;\ literary society activities, Tom Staples, Virginia Harris; school activities, Anne Clark, Marjorie Prouse; art and photo­ graphy, Roger Smith, Marjorie Martin, Jean Mc­ Arthur.

Brogden, the advertising staff was Martin Brooks, Bill Jarrett, Sally Fleet, Helen Matthews, Ruth Daniel, Mil­ dred •• Mansfield, Tom Douglas, Bill Montgomery, Earle* Richter, Dennis Henley,, Jean McArthur. One of the cutest things we’ve seen in a long -.time can be seen these days frolicking about the farm—but not too far away from mummy—of Mr. and Mrs. George H. Fraser, some miles out .North* Thames St. This cute little number is . Alice—little more than 35 pounds of frisky Shet- • land pony. Alice was born on the King’s birthday . and looks like a toy—like something straight out •of Lilliputianland. Her hair would be the envy ■ of almost any girl in town. It feels like the fur ■ of any Angora, rather than the outer garment of ' what will be a husky youngster, destined to pull k a pleasure-bound cart and carry excited small boy/ and girls on her back for 10 cents a canter. These small boys and girls, at the moment, would dwarf little Alice. And you’re inclined to ask Mrs. Fraser what kind of breakfast she eats when you ’see see her carrying this.small-edition horse about like a, pet tomcat But it’s really no Job, says Mrs. Fraser, handing Alice over. And it* isn’t Most rocking horses will outweigh Alice. It’s worth a run- up to the Fraser farm, (second farm on the left, past the C.P.R. tracks, well out Thames), to see this little refugee from Toyland. An historical atlas of Oxford, published in 1876, and presently belonging to Jim Westcott shows how Woodstock’s population has really stepped along over the years, while Ingersoll’s has barely crawled, though at one time they were pretty equaL Today Woodstock’s population is 'close to 15,000, while Ingersoll’s is 6,243, but in 1881, Woodstock was only 1000 ahead of us. It had 5,373, compared with Ingersoll’s 4,318. In 1891—ten years later—Woodstock had climbed to 8,612, but Ingersoll had dropped to 4,191. In the next 10 yean, however, Woodstock only gained 221. while Ingersoll advanced 381. Since that time, however, Woodstock has added 6500 to our 1700. Anybody know what Woodstock has that we haven’t, or vice vena? Ingersoll is definitely a sport- minded town and the Ingersoll Lib­rary’s shelf of books on sports is apopular corner at the library. Rightnow, eager young ball players arestudying such books, as PLAYBALL, by Bert Dunne and BASE­BALL, by John Coombs, which give the rules and techniques for betterball playing. THE STORY OF BALL, by John Durant is a popular book for the general reader, as are the books about such famous figures in the baseball world as Lou Gehrig, Bob Feller, Babe Ruth and Connie Mack. DO YOU KNOW YOUR BASEBALL, by Bill Brandt is for people who like to know who swat­ted what in what year, and who wasthe home run king at any given time. SOFTBALL, is another of the popular Barnes Library of Sports and gives instruction in that game. Recently we have been asxed for books on ROLLER SKATING and have ordered a new one which is now available. It gives a great deal of information about roller skatingtechnique, fancy skating and speedskating. Increased interest in riding has brought two new books to the shelves, RIDING SIMPLIFIED, by Margaret Self, and a more complete one called EQUITATION and HORSEMANSHIP, by Major Mac­ millan. OFF TO THE RACES, byErnest Blanche is almost a hand­ book on racing covering the story of racing plus an analysis of races, tracks and winners. There are also books on TENNIS, SWIMMING, and GOLF, among the latter being a recent one by BenHogan, called POWER GOLF.

INGERSOLL Phone 191 HANDS IN TRAINING... FOR ONTARIO Learning Business Practice IN Ontario the wheels of industry turn for the benefit of every single one of ua. Our lathes, dynamos, drill presses, farm combines, tractors, business machinal, etc. are producing goods and services which earn dollars. These dollars provide food, clothing, medical care and othernecessities which contribute to our security and high standard of living. Every single one of us. therefore, has a very personal interest in the flow of a steady supply.of trained workers to industrial ptants. These workers will operate machines which are important to our way of life. We should appreciate, then, the co-operative efforts of government, industry and labour in the field of employee training. In schools and in factories our workers, young and old, are given the opportunity to develop new and specific skills in every field of business and industrial activity. For instance, every effort on the part of office workers to become pro- icient in typing, filing, shorthand and secretarial work, will mean prater business efficiency—will help to make Ontario a finer ptace in which to live and work.^ THE BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) Ontario workers know they can earn more, have executive responsibility and enjoy a higher standard of living in direct ratio to the (kills they ac­ quire and the way they make use of them. That’* always true in a free economy —-that’s why our com­ petitive system will continue is make Canada great and a great place in which to live.

A 40-acre wooded recreational park for Ingersoll may be one of the dev­ elopments as a result of the Thames straightening and reclamation pro­ject. The park Is likely to be estab­lished west of the town, and the sew­ age disposal plant, and will involveplanting of many trees. Work on the flood-control and beau­tification scheme is going ahead very fast, Gordon Pittock told the KiwanisClub last Thursday. One section,scheduled, to be completed Jan. 1950,may be finished by the end of June,he said. He said 85 highly desireableacres would be reclaimed betweenPemberton and Mutual Streets, 50being owned by the Authority, 35 bythe town. He said the Authority hadto buy 210 acres of land, for $15,500,to get right-of-way for the scheme. Mr. Pittock said on completion of theproject it will be possible to drivealong the new channel, and only lackof funds to build a culvert down pastStones', blocks having a new road between Centreville and Mutual St.,which would, he said, do a great dealto relieve traffic and congestion onCharles St. and through the town. Mr. Pittock revealed that one sch­ eme suggested for flood control sometime ago was rejected because itmeant wiping out of Beachville, mov­ing both the C.N.R. and C.P.R. andNo. 2 highway up their respective hills, and moving three big concerns.Also, he said, so far as Ottawa was concerned, Ingersoll is still a port,and the Thames navigable from hereto Lake St. Clair. Because of this, hesaid, the waters were crown property,and they had to swap the new channelwith Ottawa before the old channel,at the moment crown property, could be utilized or disposed of in any way.Mr. Pittock said that as the pro­ ject got underway it was calculatedthey would have to dump approxim­ately 100,000 yards of fill,from thenew channel into an old quarry. Butnow, he added, the new fill is being packed down so hard, that it looksas if they’re going to be short that much or more, and now sources forit are being sought. Thanking Mr. Pittock, RoydenStart said the program offered thetown great possibilities, "limited onlyby our lack of imagination, initiativeand energy.” DORCHESTER By Mrs. Ed.

Louis St Laurent Canada’s Prime Minister, as “The Statesman from Quebec.” “He was the first responsible statesman to propose the North Atlantic defence system; and his chief task today is the co-ordination of theCanadian and American economic systems. “No one paid much attention to the rather shy man who turned up one day in the Cabinetroom as Minister of Justice . . . Mr. St. Laurent spoke seldom. When he did—in perfect English flecked with undertones inherited from his Irish mother—it was evident he had been doing home­ work. A House of Commons, used to rambling, overstuffed oratory, suddenly found itself listen­ing to a flow of plain, tightly packed paragraphs. Each extemporaneous speech would have made a respectable state paper without change of a comma. “Within a year the Commons knew that, in intellect, St. Laurent was far above any Canadian in public life . . . .” Vote for . . .

See More Saved By Trying Longer All drowning fatalities are not necessarily due only to carelessness onthe part of the victims, it is statedby Dr. Gordon Bates, of Toronto, inan editorial in the current issue ofHEALTH magazine of the Health League of Canada. Too frequentlythere is a lack of knowledge as toproper means of artificial respiration on the part of the onlookers anxiousto help. Dr. Bates is General. Director ofthe Health League of 'Canada andeditor of HEALTH magazine. The editorial goes on to say:“Artificial respiration should al­ways be immediate and continuouslyapplied by persons with some know­ledge of the procedure. There aremisapprehensions, however, which insome cases have led to tragedy. Therestill remains in the minds of many theidea that a person who has been underwater for more than a few minutes cannot be revived by artificial res­piration. This is not true. There havebeen instances of individuals being revived after having been as long ashalf an hour in the water. “A committee of the Health Leagueof Canada under the leadership ofthe late Sir Frederick Banting, in 1938 issued a statement to the effectthat artifitial respiration should bekept up continuously for four hours or until there is evidence of rigormortis in the victim. Yet it has been noticed in not a few cases recentlythat artificial respiration has beendiscontinued in a very short time andthe victim pronounced dead. Thisaction has presumably been decidedbecause there have been no signs oflife.” The editorial states that the same committee also found that “mostdrowning victims have no water intheir lungs and that death results fromspasm of the larynx.-’’ “It is thereforemost important that one should make certain in all of these cases that theair passages are free. The only knownmethod of attempting to assure thisend at present, is to see that the pat­ient’s tongue is well drawn out during efforts of artificial respiration.” H.

But now four hens and two toms have been released bythe department of lands and forestsin Lambton county—returning hereafter half a century. The birds weresecured from Pennsylvania, throughthe co-operation of the Pennsylva­nia Game Commission. A recent article in the Tribune,pointed out that althoughthe southern areas climatically suitedto wild turkeys are now too wellcleared ever to provide wild turkeys for sport, there are still spots wherea few could be maintained as natural attractions, for old times’ sake. Thebirds just released are not expectedto increase greatly, but It is hopedthey will maintain themselves.

As the Dominion Federal Election time approaches, perhaps it would not be out of place at this time to remind -the people of Oxford Riding as to the manner in which their County was represented in theearly days.In 1792, Lettrs Patent wereissued by Governor Simcoe, divid­ing the province of Upper Canadainto counties and apportioning'therepresentation thereof. He formed nineteen counties and according to their population gave them power to elect in all fifteen representatives to the parliament of Upper Canada. At this time there was no county of Oxford, the Township of Oxford having been surveyed in. 1793 was placed in the territory known as Norfolk County and comprised whatis known as Norfolk, Oxford andMiddlesex and called the District of London.The first parliament of Upper Canada was formed in 1792 and the District of Lohdon elected the Hon. i D. W. Smith as their representative. 1 Mr. Smith was re-elected for our i’&istrict in the parliament of 1796 and also in 1800. Had just one man In 1798 an act was passed tomake a better division of the prov­ince according to the increasing population and this act constituted the township of Burford, Norwich, Dcreham, Oxford on Thames, Blan­ ford and Blenheim as the County of Oxford. Under this act of parlia­ ment the three counties of Oxford,Middlesex and Norfolk had but onerepresentative, the Hon. D. W. Smith elected in 1800 but >n 1804 Benajah Malory was elected to the fourth parliament of Upper Can­ ada. Owing to a second redistribu­ tion to take care of the ever in­ creasing population we find in thefifth, sixth and seventh parliaments 1808 to 1820 the counties of Ox­ ford and Middlesex were given one member, and the result of the three elections Benajah Malory was elect­ ed 1808, Mahlon Burwell 1812 and Burwell again in 1816.From 1820 to the passing of the Act of Union uniting Upper and Lower Canada, Oxford was given power to elect one representative showing that at this period there was a rapid increase in population. In 1820 Thos. Horner and Mr. Mal­ colm, in 1830 Charles Ingersoll and Dr. Charles Duncombe and in 1835Dr. Charles Duncombe and Robert Alway.Duncombe was an active sympa­ thizer of Wm. Lyon MacKenzie and as such he had to leave the country after the rebellion of 1837 and his seat in parliament was declared va­ cant and Roger Rollo Hunter took his place. Divided in Two After the Act of Union in 1840,the County was* represented by SirFrancis Hincks, Mr. Robert Riddell in 1844, and in 1848 Peter Carroll and Hon. Francis Hincks. In 1851 after Sir Francis Hincks was elect­ ed, our country was divided into the North and South Ridings of Oxford. In 1854 D. Mathison of Embro, represented the North andthe Hon. F. Hincks the South. Dur­ing this parliament the south riding became vacant and Dr. E. Cook of Norwich was elected to fill the vacancy.In 1858 the Hon. Geo. Brown of Toronto, was elected for the North but as he chose to sit for the To­ ronto seat his constituency fell to Wm. McDougall and the south elect­ed Skellington Connor LL.D. In1861 we had Wm. McDougall in .the North and Dr, Connor in the South. Dr. Connor did not survive the ses­ sion and was replaced by the Hon. Geo. Brown, In 1863 we had Hope F. McKenzie of Sarnia for the North and Hon. Geo.. Brown for the South.In 1867 Thomas Oliver for theNorth and Mr. E. V. Bodwell for the South. In 1874 Thos. Oliver for the North and James A. Skinner for the South. Up to 1876 The foregoing is a short historical sketch of our parliamentary repre­ sentation for Oxford up to 1876. In 1876, under confederation, sep­ arate legislatures were given to each province. Under the Imperial act, the Ridinga of Oxford just elected in 1867 George Perry for the North and Adam Oliver of Ing­ ersoll for the South. In 1871 Mr. Perry was again elected by acclam­ ation and also Mr. Oliver after a spirited contest but by a very large majority In 1872 a vacancy occurred inthe north riding by the appointmentof Mr. Perry to the position of Sheriff and he was succeeded bythe Hon. Oliver Mowat without acontest. In 1875 Mr. Mowat wasagain elected without a contest and Mr. Oliver was returned by the* fourth but was unseated and retired to make way for the Hon. Adam Crooks thus during this parliament Oxford was represented by the Pre­ mier of the Province and his chiefExecutive.

According toreports there are many people bornunder the sign of the zodiac known as tht Gemini which denotes a naturewith two sides! Versatile, enter­taining, lovable — but changeable,often contradictory. Men say thereis a bit of Gemini in every woman and if this be so, it is advisable forthem io understand such a disposi­tion. Probably there are two sides tomost women: the dreamer, ready tohitch her wagon to a star—and thepractical one, with two feet firmlyon the ground. A homemaker has al­ways a dream home in her thoughtsand at the same time is practicalabout the things in which she investsas part of a long term plan.There are ways to judge the jus­ tification of any purchase—first: DoI require it? The second considera­ tion is:How much can I afford to payfor it? In addition to the dollars andcents value one must consider comfort,convenience, durability and usefulness. To many brictes of this season we suggest you follow the principles ofBetter Buymanship. 1. Tackle the Job with confidenceand determination.2. Consult authorities before goinginto the market 3. Decide in advance how much youcan afford to pay. 4. Deal with reputable merchants.5. Learn how to recognize genuinebargains.6. Read the labels and ask for facts.7. Choose according to your specialneeds.8. Choose modem aids that increaseefficiency. 9. Fit purchases into your long termplan.10. Respect the merchant’s businesssense and knowledge of his ownmerchandise. 11. Give due emphasis to spiritualand psychological values.Good buymanship on the consumer’spart helps the merchant supply yourneeds more economically. For instance avoid guesswork by obtaining infor­mation before you buy. Purchase withthe intention of keeping the article.Follow directions on the label care­fully and make any reports or returnspromptly.We are impressed with the numberof skillful shoppers in our town. This was proven as we made our surveyrecently. However, we decided to writethis column for the many young people who have written to us lately inquir­ing about budgets.THE QUESTION BOX Mil* J, R. nlki:How can 1 reduce food bills?Answer: ,1.

Honor Your Dad Cut Delinquency The approach of Father’s Day onSunday, June 19th., brings to mind asentimental story behind this day,well established in Canadian traditionas the one day in the year we honourthe paternal head of the family.The idea originated not on the male side but from the sentimental feel­ings of a mother. This woman, Mrs.Bruce Dodds of Spokane, Washing­ton, had looked back for many yearsupon the kindliness and courage ofher own father who raised six mother­less children with faultless devotionas well as earning a livelihood forthe family. So deeply impressed was Mrs. Dodds with this devotion, thatshe often wondered if more fort­ unate families, with mother and fa­ther, appreciated both parents equally.She knew that children, who spendmore time under mother’s wing, failto see the importance of the paternal head of the family—aside from beinga bread winner. Mrs. Dodds, a spiritual mindedwoman, took her idea to the religiousgroups in her city. Backed by her pas­ tor, Rev Conrad Bluhm, the Y.M.C.A.and a minister’s alliance, the firstFather's Day was observed on thethird Sunday in June 1910. Mrs.Dodd’s group met in church for song and verbal tribute. At that time, therewere many songs and jokes in cir­culation making Father the butt ofjokes. The group attempted to fightthis disrespectful attitude shown toFathers. Press, pulpit and women’sgroups took up the crusade and invery short order Father’s Day wasevolved.This thoughtful woman's attemptto have “Fatherhood revered as grea­tly as Motherhood” is today a realityin the United States, Canada and many other countries. This year, theCanadian Father’s Day Council haveadopted as their slogan —“FOR BET­TER CITIZENSHIP — MAKE DADYOUR PAL.” This council feels that if the youn­ger Canadian Citizens paid more att­ention to father— and the grown-up citizens gave fatherhood more res­pect, there would be less juveniledelinquency, family troubles and div­orces. They feel that the modemfreedom of this enlightened age does not give a license to show disrespectfor the paternal head of the family. It was once believed that livinghuman beings placed in cornerstones would ensure the stability of a buil­ding.

Many a day’s outing has been spoiled by coming in contact with thisplant.The best preventative measure isto learn to recognize poison ivy andnot to picnic or sit near it. Althoughit generally grows as a trailing vine,or as a number of separate plantsforming patches of varying thicknessand size (it may climb a tree or tele­graph pole for a considerable height.) The leaves are arranged alternatelyon the woody stem with each leaf bearing three leaflets, which may varyin size, shape, color, or outline, butwill always be in threes. Clusters ofgreenish-yellow fruits about the sizeof peas develop on poison ivy in some locations and these fruits generallyturn white. Poison ivy is the only com­mon plant in Canada having trifoliateleaves and white fruit. The rash which can prove so dis­tressing to many people is caused bycoming into contact with the non-vol­atile, sticky substance which is onthe plant. This substance may remainactive on gloves, tools, shoes and pic­nic baskets for months. Dogs, cats, or■even smoke from burning ivy cantransmit the substance.

Party Systems Seen BestFor Democratic Practise Almost every city in China has its characteristic fan, distinguishable by its color and ornament. lET’S MAKE THEM WANT TO COME BACK! By Eveline Long It is seldom men are converted to ^another’s belief, either spiritual orpolitical.Most of us take our colouring fromthose who influenced us when we were young. We are like the cameleon inthat, but unlike the cameleon, which changes its colour to suit its sur­roundings, we, once coloured, are likely to remain unchanged. So theProtestant stays Protestant, and anyform of the Protestant form of wor­ship in which a child waK reared islikely to remain for him the best form. The Jew Continues his Jewish prac­tices throughout his life and every other religious group in the worldhas its adherents because the formative years of the members of the groupwere spent with people who believed their particular form of worship the best. Some people do change alleg­iance, of course, but the rule of con­ tinuity of practice holds good in the majority of cases. So it is with politics. A child who hears his father praise one party, andblame the other, who claims all that is good in government has been the workof his party, and all that is foul is the develish device of the other, is likely to believe his parent and tocontinue ever after to look with sus­ picion on any but the party of hisfather's choice. While that may begood as for as party politics is con­ cerned, it isn’t good thinking. No oneParty has done all the fine things* no Party has ever been entirely basi in its bargainings. Although eachaccording to the other, would, h given the power, send us all to thiperdition bow-wows, we seem to keep on a fairly even keel and progres! quite nicely’in spite of such predictions. There are always enough hon est men with brains to temper thegreed and lust of inferior men. Vil­lains who acquire power there may be as in no large group is villainy ent­irely absent, but opposition to villainy is rampant too where a few honest individuals get together.The Party System has its draw­ backs, but it is probably the best sys­tem and most conducive to demo­ cratic practice. An opposition that keeps its eye on the Party in powerisn’t likely to gloss over its opponent’smistakes. It may occasionally give unwilling credit for some measurepassed, but it’s always more ready to condemn for things left undone, even if it too failed to do them when ithad the chance. To be in power is the desire ofany party. Each works and strives for that end. If promises of good things to come win votes, then each mustmake promises, the more lavish the better for the candidates. It givesthem something to work on. The spell­ binder who once used his voice and his charm is a past number. The radiogives him no eye-appeal and his golden voice is likely to lose some of its timbre as it travels through the air. Probablyhe had much less power to win votes away from his opponents than hefondly believed, for once out of ear­ shot of the voice and its persuasive argument, once free from the masshysteria that stirred the crowd and made the argument seem feasible, thepoor voter would lapse back into his old form and decide to remain staunch in his support of his old party. Asfor the man who listened because the advocate was of his persuasion, well,he became more convinced than ever that his party was the only one with a sane policy, and that, once in power,all would be well with the world. Perhaps It’s better that way. It’smuch less wearying on the brain, any­ way, To be quite sure one is right,and never to doubt that the others are entirely wrong, must be very soothingto the ego. At all events, the ship of State is likely to go sailing merrilyon, whoever takes the helm. There are too many good and indifferent can­ didates in all parties to make muchdifference, except, that is, to the lucky or unlucky candidate himself.So, choose your man and cast your ballot. At least, by so doing, you areexercising a hard won privilege, that is also a democratic duty and right* L&uds Service Of Weekly Papers Tribute to the service weekly news­papers give to the people of the towns and villages and the distinctly rural areas of .Western Ontario was ex­pressed Saturday night by W. J. Blackburn, president and managingdirector of the London Free Press Printing Company. "It may be truthfully said that theweekly and the daily (newspaper) supplement each other, the weeklygiving a personal, and the daily a more general news service,” Mr. Blackburn said. “Only when the two are joinedtogether in the hands of the reader is I his newspaper service complete.” Weekly newspaper editors and pub­lishers were guests with the staff, their friends and associates at the centennial dinner of the London FreePress Saturday night. “The weekly paper, even to a grea­ter extent than the daily, is the heart of the community.” Mr. Blackburn said in the course of his tribute.“Through its intimate and personal reporting of the news, it provides a service to its community which nodaily can provide.” HOLD LAST RITES FOR.

Canadians have never willingly elected to power a government which has failed to remain faithful to the democratic principle of free enterprise. By their insistence on retaining emergency powers granted for war only, the Liberals have ednfused and frustrated every branch of our economy by a mass of ever-changing orders and regulations. Canada’s future, your own future and the future of your children hang in the balance. On June 27th, vote for the Progres­ sive Conservative Party which will insist on government being the tervan/of the people—not the master! ------------HIGHLIGHTS OF PLATFORM------------- TAX REFORMS Income tax exemptions will be raised to $1,2)0 for single persons and to$2,500 for married people. Allowances for dependent children will beincreased by $200. The present heavy sales ax, which cuts the purchasingvalue of the dollar by more than the tax, will be sharply reduced. All unnecessary nuisance taxes will be abolished. FARM SECURITYWe will ensure stability of income to farmers by the enactment of permanentfloor price legislation. We will incorporate into the Farm Prices Support Act a definite formula for arriving at floor prices, to be set only after con­ sultation with represenutives of producers. Floor prices will always be an- 'nouced well tn advance of the production period. SMALL BUSINESSWith sky-high axes owners of small businesses have been left with far too little of their profits to carry out desirable programs of expansion.

I was jogging along with a bit of ajag, not dreaming of disaster,The mud was only knee deep, the con­ sistency of plaster;1 passed by Peter Kennedy’s and got to Walker’s rink, When, suddenly, just there, I felt my­self begin to sink. I thought my latest day had come, my concience smote within,For curses given to cordurdys'on roads where I had been; I longed for Thames street cobblestones, those boulders smooth and round, Quite large enough to hold one up, ifany could be found. Those grand old rocks on Thames-st., their worth who can portray,But nary a rock to step upon, could I behold that day; Oh, how I longed for Thames street,disgraceful though it be. For down on rock-ribbed Thames-st., you couldn’t hate mired me. Just then I saw an alderman whose maiden name is Jones, I called aloud on William H., havemercy on my bones; I called again he heard me not, butsmoked his flora fina, <While 1 alas, through mud and mire, was sinking down to China. Kind hearted souls did all they could,in fact tried every thing, They rushed around in mad dismay,then madly yelled for King; Then some one sent for Bartley, he of the Board of Works,But Bartley says that street is King's, and thus his duty shirks. Then some yelled for Sherlock, whowas somewhere there about, To bring his watering cart around,and try to soak me out; But neither King, nor Sherlock, nor Bartley, nor Ben Gray,Did aught to save my carcass, but slowly walked away. My thoughts then turned to Christo­pher, and loudly I did shout, Perhaps he can manipulate some wayto get me out; A man of great utility, who knowsjust where he’s at, I apprehend he’ll float a bond, and get me out on that. I surely thought my time had come,(the most of me was under), And all my earthly friendship, Ithen should have to sunder; Then some one called for Noxon, forNoxon loud did shout, Then T. H. came and whittled a stick and gently pried me out 1 Y o vh stor ek eeper may think he doesn’t handle chemistry, but every­ thing he sells from costume jewelry to refrigerators, is in whole or in part, a chemical product. Chemistry is a vital factor in fabrics and foods, leather and toys. It’s at the cosmetic counter and in the hardware department. You find it more and more whenever you shop—as nylon hosiery, fabrics and bristles, in new plastic articles and as "Cellophane” wrappings to protect goods and make them more attractive. The chemical industry never stands still. It continues to create new useful products •nd to improve many old ones. It contributes to the well-being of all of us ... with the C-I-L oval the symbol of an organization devoted to serving Canadians through chemistry. For iwta-c* L CANADIAN IND USTR IE S L IM ITED )
