There was a mild flap around thetown during the week when a citizenspotted a man walking down the street w.th blue-gray trousers ^ndjacket, the trousers carrying a redstripe, and the jacket, a big red circle. His uniform was that of aP.O.W. (prisoner of war), and so hewas duly reported to the police. Thepolice had a few words with him, andit seems—believe it or not—that P.O.

Three years ago, doctors told Frank Leake he’d better quit bus­iness and relax, that he had only afew more months to live.Frank did relax—for a few weeks—but any day you can see himdown in the little Thames St. shop now owned by Cecil Vyse, stilldoing the fine carving that hasearned him an international reputa- Mr. Leake, whose art is repre­sented in hundreds of homes in theU.S., Canada and; such spots as Puerto Rico, has been carving for69 years, and, as he says “I've madea lot of chips in that time.” He start­ed carving and designing fine furn­ iture when he was 15, and he willbe 84 this October. And his artist’seye is still as keen as ever.He won’t ha:ard the number ofacres of timber he’s carved his waythrough, or the number of knives he outlived, but it’s plenty and heexpects a lot of trees to go through his hands yet.Born in London, Mr. Leake cameto Ingersoll when he was 21. He wasa carver with the piano factory, andwhen it moved, he moved. He got into carving as a result of hisfather. His father. Stephen Leake,an Oxford graduate who took up wood carving as a hobby, started upa small furniture factory in Lon­don. Frank caught on there, then went to the piano factory. His•father, incidentally, died when hewas 12, and Mr. Leake at that early age became the man of the housein a family of 10 children. Hismother lived to be 84.“It was always intended that I should be a painter,” he said, “butmy father’s death made it "necessary for me to earn a living.”Forty-seven years ago the build­ing he is now in was built, he re­ called. Previous to that a smallbuilding owned by the piano factorystood there, and he was in by him­self, doing contract work for the factory and also outside jobs. Mailed By Seasick Soldier Card 32 Years on Its Way FINDS A WALLET NOT EVEN MISSED Postmaster Bob Wark found a lad;/spocketbook the other day before the lady knew she’d lost it.Mr. Wark foimd the pocketbook onone of the postoifice writing counters,and checked foi a name inside. Hetelephoned the lady and asked if she'd lost anything.“No,” was the reply.“Are you sure?” Mr. Wark pressed. The lady thought again, but couldn’tremember missing anything.“How about your pocketbook?” asked Air. WUfk. There was a deadly silencefor a few moments. “Yes, it is gone,” said the lady.“Thank you very much for finding it.” “In 1928 I began to get ordersfrom all over”, he said.Since then he’s carved everything from his own name outside hisapartment, to complete bedroomsuite*. But not only has he carvedthem, which he say* is not the big feature particularly, but he’s de­signed them. “Why I could designyou a $15,000 suite right now, justas quick as I could a $1,000 one," he said. "Tomorrow I’ve got to de­sign a grandfather’s clock.”The longest time he ever spent on one job was five week*—on a grand­father’s clock. Mr. Vyse and he areright now doing a Toronto order for24 clocks. Their fame is country­ wide, and people come from every­where to get their work.Mr. Leake’s wife died five year* ago—just after they had celebratedtheir 48th wedding anniversary.There were no children. Three yearsago he was told he had only a few months to live, so Cecil Vyse, a veryhardworking young man, took theplace ovcej and Mr. Leake has been working for him, very much alive,ever since.In his “spare" time, Mr. Leakeconducted carving classes for 20. years. This was on behalf of theschool board. When the classes be­gan, before the first war, therewere eight pupils; when they finish­ ed, he was teaching six lesson* aweek to 62 pupils. Hundreds of men,women and children all over the country learned the fine art of de­sign and carving from Mr. Leake.“The secret of success, he ■ said,“that I have always been able tosee the beauty—-not the ugliness.”Mr. Leake, at one time or an­other, has been a member of nearly every worthwhile’ organization ororder in the town. Right now he sinternationally known as probably the oldest living Lion.-The true artist in wood is a rarecreature these days. It is to Inger­ soll’s honor to have one of the rar-est, and best known. _____________ Well-Known Here Gets Big Job Well-known here, Clifford W.

Return Cheque To Middlesex A cheque for $366.64 will be re­turned to the South Middlesex highschool district board, the Collegiate Institute board of Ingersoll districtdecided Tuesday. The cheque was for cost of edu­cating two Middlesex children atthe Ingersoll collegiate. Ingersoll’s bill, however, was $442.78.“Middlesex objects to transporta­tion being included in our bill,” ex­plained J. J. McLeod, secretary, but the department informs me ourbill is quite in order—that trans­portation should be included.” The board, on resolution of Trus­tee Bowers, seconded by TrusteeChisholm, returned* the cheque, ask­ ing South Middlesex to pay the bill,or submit a notification from thedepartment of education that the Ingersoll bill was in error. Meet Once Again After 31 Years George Rennie of Putnam, was aboard a troopship, on the Atlanticenroute to France and the greatestwar the world had ever known. The ocean was rough, the boat wasrocking and George in his /late’teens, was feeling a bit groggy. Hewrote his mother, Mrs. Charles Ren­nie, a postcard telling her of allthis, and posted it on arrival inEngland. That was in 1917—32 years ago.But the postcard arrived only lastweek, and *his mother never knew how sick her soldier son was for shedied many years ago. So long agoPostmaster W. Clayton at Putnam,didn’t even know the name, Mrs. Charles Rennie. After hanging onto the card for a couple pf days, heaays. he forwarded it on to the Ing­ersoll postoffice. Mr. Clayton didn't notice the card had been enroute 32years, but the Ingersoll office did.Postmaster Bob Wark wouldn't even hazard a guess as to where ithad been all this time. The postoffice sent it on to Mrs.John Rennie, on the Hamilton road, a couple of miles out. She’s an auntof the boy who sent the card. “Youcould never have told where it hadbeen,’1 she said, “it didnt look like George's real writing. It said hewasn't feeling well, and the writinglooked it.”Mrs. Rennie said she didn’t thinkthere was anything particularly ex­ citing about" the card, but she tele­phoned Will Rennie of Ingersoll,one of George’s brothers. Will is well up now, but George, the seasicksoldier boy, is dead. “Yes,” said Mr, Rennie, “he waskilled the first time he left ’the trenches. He joined up with a bunchof the boys at Dorchester. My fam­ily had a farm two miles west of Putnam. Dad died way back—1908I think. George worked on the farm,and around, then decided to join up. There were six boys and four girls,and now only two boys and two girlsare left. George was the only onewho joined up.” Will Rennie would have liked tohave seen the postcard, to try andfind out where it had been. But hewon’t now. A baby at Mrs. JohnRennie’s home got hold of it and ithasn't been seen since. “I never thought a postcardwould have caused such excitement,”said Mrs. Rennie. “I didn’t thinkanything of it. It was just a post­card. a pretty beaten one, too.” Not One Recruit Gained in Drive Ingersoll’s Oxford Rifles unitnot one new recruit as a result of the Army Week drive, Copt. Fred Wor­ker, officer commanding, says.The strength of the unit is still 14men, and one officer and one officercadet. Full strength — which Capt.Wurkcr would like to achieve — is 125.“I don’t know what’s the matterwith our young men of today,” he said. “They don’t seem to have time—nor the inclination to accept theircivic responsibilities." got On the date of their next municipal election, the peopleof Ingersoll, North Oxford, West Oxford, East Nissouri andWest Zorra, will vote on the question of a new high school forthe area. This was decided Tuesday night at the final meeting forthe summer of the Collegiate Institute board of Ingersoll dis­ trict. The board approved a resolution of the new buildingcommittee and J. J. McLeod, secretary, is notifying the clerkof all communities. All but West Oxford.hold their civic elect­ions the first Monday in December.Introduced by E. J. Chisholm, chairman of the committee, and seconded by Trustee A. W. Littlg, the resolution referredto the emergency existing in connection with high school ac­ commodation in this area, “and the urgent necessity of a newcollegiate.” Couldn't Gal Together Voting for the resolution were Trustees Weir, Bower, Chisholm,McLellan and Little. Trustee Ed By-erman abstained. Chairman R. W. Green was in the chair.The decision to call a vote came following replies of West Zorra andEast Missouri to the board’s requestthat they get together and arrange a contribution of 22 per cent, to thecost of the school. Ingersoll, West Oxford and North Oxford had al­ready agreed to 78 per cent. Butat Tuesday night's meeting, WestZorra. through Clerk J. D. Wood,said they would stick to their orig­inal 2.5 per cent, and East Mis­souri, through A. J. Baker, reported the matter had been discussed atcouncil, but no action had been taken.Mr. Chisholm commented: “It would be to the advantage of all,except Ingersoll, to get togetherand agree on the other 43 per cent,rather than call a vote. Because ifthe program is voted on, the sharesrevert to equalized assessment, andunder that Ingersoll's share is only 51 per cent., not 57 per cent., agthe town has agreed on. Under a vote Ingersoll will gain six per cent.If we can save the vote we can savea great deal of expense, but ifthere’s a vote, we should support itenthusiastically. It will save us—Ingersoll—a lot of money.”. He said ballots won’t be counted until the last municipality has voted,so no municipality will know how the other is going. _x Will Clear Air “The vote will clear the air,” saidMr. Chisholm. “There's no use of all this fuss and worrying if we'renot going to get anywhere. The votewill clear the air. We’re either going to get someplace or no place, and this will tell us.”Trustee Weir complained 1 thatunder the proposed agreement,West Zorra would be paying only 2.5 per cent, whereas under eMial-ized assessment it would be more.“If the vote is successful, it will go up,” said Mr. Chisholm.“And what about North Oxford?”“That same thing will happen. That’s what I say, everyone butIngersoll would benefit and this was agreed on without a vote.”“The farmer is paying too muctu according to the town*—or eventhe villages,” asserted Mr. Weir,"They’re paying too much.”“It’« up to your township coun­ cils,” replied Mr. Chisholm. “They fix your taxes. But I would say the average small house in Ingeraoll pays more taxes than a 100-acre farm.The only ones who are getting out from under, are those right on theedge of town—I know one paying $41 taxes, or about one third of the man right across the road. Ingersoll is paying as large a tax or more than those in the country.” “I* That Fair?” “But not school tax,” differed Mr.Weir. “What did the department of edu­ cation suggest we do?” asked Trus­tee Byerman.“Take the vote,” replied Mr.Green. “Either equalize the assessment,or take the vote,” Mr. McLeodamended. “What if a municipal election isnot needed in the municipality, who pays the cost of a vote on theschool?” asked Mr. Weir,“The municipality”, replied Trus­tee Chisholm. “What if East Missouri is 90 percent against the school?” enquiredMr. Weir. “It’s the over-all vote over thearea that counts,” explained Mr.Chisholm.“Is that fair?” asked Mr. Weir.“Ingersoll could swamp it.”■4JThat’s the foundation of democ­racy,” put in Trustee Little. “The majority over-rules the minority.”“We had hoped all the communi­ties could get together—that we’d need no vote,” said Mr. Chisholm.“If there’s a vote. Ingersoll willget the plum,” suggested Mr.Little. “They get it anyway," maintainedMr. Weir. “They get the school It’s an asset for any municipality tohave a new school.”"Well, where else would you putit?” asked Mr. Little. “I’m not saying Ingersoll shouldnot -have it," was the reply. 54 Years Ago The Tribune Moved Into Present Home Fifty-four years ago this edition,The Tribune moved into its presentquarters at 115—117 Thames St.So relates a copy of the July 18, 1895, edition of the Oxford Tribuneand Canada Dairy Reporter, as itwas then known, brought to the Tri­ bune during the week by Mrs. GordonTingle, the former Ruth Cuthbertson,daughter of the late D.

In ordinary pencil is also written “1st copy."Mrs. Tingle said she had found the copy carefully put away in her fath­er’s effects.On page one, in a two-column box notice, it states: "The Tribune is thisweek being removed to its new officesin T.

Ellery - Stone Reunion Carried 30 lbs of Nails on Back From London For New Shop Dorchester Village was named in ■honor of Sir Guy Carleton, Lord Dor­chester, governor general of Canadafrom 1786 to 1796. One fact almost obscured in history is that at Dorch­ester’s Donnybrook Field in 1925 washeld the first open-air initiation of members into the Ku Klux Klan ofCanada.On October 15 of that year, morethan 100 Londoners were initiatedinto the Klan in the first open-air“naturalization” ever held .in theDominion. According to the records it was an impressive ceremony withthe new members marching behind aKing Kleagle who carried a flaming cross. PIGEON TOPPLES BOY OFF BEAM Five-year-old Tommy Dennisonstarted exploring in the family barnnear here Saturday.He climbed onto a beam in the loft,a pigeon flew suddenly out of its nestand the frightened boy fell 15 feet to the ground.

With hands on each others shoulders they marched to the tune ofsacred hymns played by a Klan bandand took the solemn oath of the “In­visible Empire” before the altar and fiery cross.Dorchester Village, DorchesterTownship, and Dorchester County in Quebec were all named after Lord Dorchester, whose title was takenfrom the picturesque town of Dorch­ester in England. And it was throughthe township of Dorchester that Gov­ernor Simcoe and his party including Col. Talbot passed in 1793 on theirway from Niagara to Detroit. One of First Cabin* One of the first log cabins in Mid­ dlesex County was built at Dorchesterin 1794 by William Reynolds, whocame to Canada in 1793 with Major Ingersoll. It is believed that the siteof that first log cabin is somewhereon the farm now owned by Archie Zavitz, just west of the village. One of Dorchester’s outstandingearly , settlers was Joseph N. Hardywho settled there in 1844, took chargeof the Matthew's lumber business andstore, and was postmaster there for30 year*. Hardy was the last survivor of the men who left Ireland in the shipBrunswick to found New London. James B.

Let’s Have An Exhibition ©f Crawford Paintings Honor is being brought to Ingersoll these days by the painting of Miss Betty Crawford. Miss Crawford is more familiarly known as the town’s librarian, but in the world of Canadian art she is known as one of Western Ontario’s ris­ ing stars in that endeavor. You never hear of this from Miss Crawford herself, as she is a quiet and most modest person. Early this spring she had several of her paintings in "an annual art exhibi­ tion at the gallery at London, and then was in­ vited to show them in a very select show, one of three people so honored out of the many showing at the earlier exhibition. Only recently has she returned from spending her two weeks’ vacation studying at the Doon School of Fine Arts, Doon.

What Othen S ay: Hospital Ahead of Schedule But Funds Ar« Lagging It was our privilege, the other day, to be con­ ducted through our new Alexandra hospital by Mr. Bill Schwenger, who is building it The ex­ terior has pretty well been completed, and work is well ahead on the interior. Mr. Schwenger pointed out the modern heating plant, where the X-ray unit would go, the intended operating rooms, the up-to-the-minute kitchen, and the very mod­ ern general construction of the hospital. Not a bit of wood is used, excepting the doors and shel­ ving. In short, our 'new hospital is fire-proof and "v will be as modern as any hospital its size in Amer­ ica. What is more, progress is such it may be completed and ready for use ahead of schedule. Mr. Schwenger originally estimated Easter, 1950 —now he thinks just after the New Year, if all goes well as up to the present. But while construction of the hospital is rush-, ing ahead, the response to the request for funds has slowed to a crawl. A great deal of money still required to ensure that the hospital is ready for full operation when the building is completed, but the suggestion that everyone contribute a day’s pay, or what they could, has been poorly re­ sponded to. This hospital is going to be of benefit benefit to us all—it is up to all of us to give what we can to see that this wonderful institution is 100 per cent, for operation the minute the con­ tractor levels the last shovel of earth. Let’s Have Them On Monday Latest recruit in the campaign to have na­ tional holidays observed on a Monday is the Jun­ ior Chamber of Commerce of Canada. At its national convention in Toronto * resolution endor­ sing such a change was forwarded to the Secre­ tary of State at Ottawa. From business and other groups all over the country have come similiar resolutions, and not a single voice, so far as The Financial Post is aware, has ever been raised in opposition. Why federal and provincial authorities have not got together long ago and put through tbe necessary legislation is hard to understand. Frcm every possible angle the change appears desirable. As the JCC resolution points out the longer weekend would give urban people, both grown­ ups and children, a chance for a real and useful holiday. That alone is reason enough but there would also be immense benefit to business gen­ erally. At present when one of these holidays is observed in the middle of the week there is a costly interruption with no compensating advan­ tages whatsoever.—Financial Post. Which Way Do Car. Turn In District Farmer*’ Lane*? Hugh Smith of the London Chamber of Com­ merce at a recent meeting in SL Marys, gave an insight into the way Dr. Pleva, professor of Geol- bgy at the University of Westerp Ontario, finds out what the trading territory of any country town in Ontario amounts to. He said, Dr. Pleva had found, that by driving along the roads in the , ^countryside about Ontario rural communities, he noted which side of the lane and road intersection was most used, and in that way he could figure out whether the farm owner went to one centre or another. Although this idea of Dr. Pleva might have been more convincing in the days of the the horse and buggy, it is probably a fairly ac­ curate way to tell where the traffic trend lies to­ day, despite the fact that farmers’ lanes these days are beaten down by traffic not of the far­ mer himself but by cream collecting trucks, stock trucks, bread trucks and hundreds of other vehicles of salesmen, etc., who make a habit of frequently calling on the farmer.—St Marys Journal-Argus. On Saturday evening the em­ ployee*, of the wood department of the Noxon Co. assembled at the home of Mr. Jas. Henderson, Charles street east and presented him with an address and a gold watch. Mr. J. W. Cudlipp read the address and Mr. Geo. M. Sutherland made tbe presentation. Mr. I* Knapp presented Mrs. IL>„u*>>-v,*, with a water set and a gold brooch. The address was signed by Jas. Wil­ son, Blake Duffy, C. L. Henderson and Robt. McMurray. The gathering was to honor Mr. Henderson who was leaving the Noxon Co. after some 19 years. lerland Harry derson I By Jack Hutt In his biography, of Sir ArthurConan Doyle, John Dickson Carrmakes the statement that the biogr­ apher "must try to present, howeverimperfectly, a living image of the manin question: what he said, what he thought, what he believed.” Withinthese limit*, this book, "The life ofSir Conan Doyle,” is very successful. From it there does emerge“a living image” of Conan Doyle as aman of great physical and mental capacities. In addition, there is a livelypicture of the late Victorian and Ed­wardian eras.

ANITA’S DANCING MAIDS: ALLEN DUO: It Is Councillor’s Duty To Be His People’s Voice In front of Mr. Sam Wadsworth’s dairy the pavement apparently has a low spot, and when it rains a miniature lake develops. During a casual conversation with Councillor Fred Wurker,, Mr. Wadsworth mentioned this low spot and wondered if in the course of the general improvement of Ingersoll’s roads this particular condition could be remedied too—at his own expense, if necessary. Councillor Worker mentioned the situation at last meeting of council, only to be told by the mayor, Dr, Murray, echoed by Councillor Ranger, that both he and Mr. Wadsworth should know the proper method for bringing such matters to the attention of the town—and that wasn’t it If Mr. Wadsworth wanted something done, he should go to the authorities concerned, said AHe mayor and" Mr. Ranger, and through the proper channels. To our mind, neither the mayor nor Mr. Ranger added much glory to themselves with those few words. Members of council—the mayor and coun­ cillors—are elected by the taxpayers to look after the interests of the taxpayers. The councillor is the taxpayer’s representative at the seat of civic government. If the taxpayer has a problem, a dream or suggestion, he takes it to his councillor and the sincere, conscientious councillor, with the interests of his people at heart, takes his tax­ payer’s plight to council, and council decides what action, if any, is merited. In this case, Taxpayer Wadsworth had a prob-4 lem. His money was being spent in fixing the roads of Ingersoll. There was a little section of the highway in front of his place which he thought required fixing. Could it be done, he asked his councillor. His councillor mentioned Taxpayer Wadsworth’s plight to his colleagues at council, as a good representative would do. The reply should have been •‘thanks, we’ll look into it’’—not a slapping down. Public Rest Room* There are of course many facilities needed in this town, but we feel that none would be put to greater use than the public rest room for the convenience particularly of our rural shoppers. This suggestion has doubtless been heard on pre­vious occasions and has been mentioned in this newspaper before, but so far no definite plansJuve„result^’„ .W e ,ha.ve rest rooms of a sort inthe Town H&Hi but it is felt by many that some**thing more expansive is needed. Some have in mind a set of spacious, comfortable rooms wherethe women shoppers of the town and district could rest, leave their parcels, meet their friends,wait for their menfolk. The rooms should ofcourse be centrally located and should be, for convenience, on the ground level or nearly so.We do not know of many centres which have conveniences of this nature, at least adequate orattractive ones, but it seems to be a thing that islacking in most Ontario communities.Perhaps the Town Council would be willing to share the cost of such a project with the serviceclubs and other organizations of} the town. Some­thing of this nature put into operation would getwidespread support from merchants, farmers andmost others—St. Marys Journal-Argus.

Here, there is little att­ empt at any of these and it is disap­pointing that, beyond the occasionalopinion that this or that story is sup­ erior to others, there is so little crit­ical analysis of probably the greatestof all mystery-story writers by this; author who is one of the best modernwriters of detective fiction. However, there is Conan Doyie him-' self to entertain and fascinate thereader. He was an extraordinary man,'made up of diverse and contradictory qualities; deeply religious, yet pro­fessing no orthodox religion; a dutifuldevoted and kind son, yet something : of a terror to his children. In spiritand attitude he belonged to the med­ ieval age of chivalry. . he once struck ;his son for referring to a woman, a 1 stranger, as ugly, but he was prac­ tical and clear-sighted enough toforesee, during the Boer War, thenecessity for trench fighting, and later was to warn England about theprobability of German submarinewarfare. Even before the first GreatWar he suggested the idea for a col­lapsible rubber dinghy which didn’t come into use until the 1939—45 con­flict. He was a doctor, scholar, sports­man, soldier and strategist, amateur detective, traveller, pamphleteer, vis­ionary, playwright and, most impor­tant, to us at any rate, a superb teller of tales. He is and probably always will beknown as the creator of Sherlock Holmes. Yet he regarded the Holmesstories as more or less his hack writ­ing, which kept him from what he considered Mis really important workas an historical novelist. He was al­ways surprised and a little annoyedthat the public would not agree withhim, but it-was Holmes and Watson who made him a rich man. At thepeak of the demand for these-atorieshe was paid at the rate of two dollars a word! When he tried to put an endto Holmes for good and al) by killinghim off at the end of one story, readers and editors alike were so clamerousfor his return that he was forced toresurrect him. Doyle became an int­ ernational celebrity and a figure ofimportance in English affairs but hisreputation suffered some damage when ' K*.became publicly associated with the' spiritualist movement. Characterist-, ically, he did not allow this to diss­ uade him from what he believed tobe the truth. This is a very readable book.At the library, to supplement this, biography, there is a good represen­ tation of the works of Conan Doyle’ in all their diversity. Besides a gen-> erous assortment of the Holmes tales . including the full-length A STUDY, IN SCARLET and THE HOUND OFTHE BASKERVILLES, there is! the medieval romance SIR NIGEL,' THE REFUGEES, a story of Amer-, ican frontier life, a book of stories , about sporting and soldier life called’ THE GREEN FLAG, and that imag-> inative novel of pre-historic condit­ ions, THE LOST WORLD.

Our safe new tires save you this woe he^fget them now, before Waste Barrels, Repaired Curbs Would Improve Our Streets At the last council meeting Councillor Ranger proudly boasted that Ingersoll’s streets now are superior to those of Woodstock, or even London. They are much Improved, indeed, and one of our friends said Charles St. was so smooth he almost slipped through town without knowing he was here. But there is still room for improvement. We fear, for example, the town will be subject of a suit from some irate motorist as a result of the broken curbing here and there along the business section of Thames St. Nothing is harder on a tire than a jagged piece of concrete. _ It would cost little to repair the curbing, and the longer , It’s left, the worse and more extensive the break x becomes. Then too, it would cost little to put trash barrels here and there about the streets, and col­ lect some of the litter people toss on the sidewalk ’ or into the gutter, having no other place to put Creating A Poor Impression Good manners should know no season, and Can­adians should be shocked to learn that their pres­ent tremendous influx of American holiday visit­ ors are judging them by their traffic behaviour onthe roads—and finding them sadly lacking incommon courtesy. At least, only 59 per cent, of the visitors quer­ied last year in Ontario by Canadian Opinion Re­search, reported "good” as their rating of the motoring manners of Mr. and Mrs. Ontario. Thebad habits of Ontario drivers of straddling trafficlanes, and failing to signal before making a turn were scored by the visitors. Twenty-two per centof the Americans considered the average Canadiandriver to be "fairly courteous” and six per cent, rated him as downright discourteous.It is true that our American visitors* are-judgingCanadians against the courtesy and considerationreceived at the hands of motorists, but as this • judgment in inevitably applied, rightly or wrongly,to national manners, the impression being taken back to the United States is unfortunate.With Ontario’s road* teeming with Americancars as they never have before, Canadian driven . should remember that our national reputation as acourteous people i* in their hands. They shouldremember that they already have a poor reputeas driven abroad, and that this is an excellentchance to dispel some of the stigma. The oppor­tunity is still open, the tourist season still hasmany week* to go. Canadian motorist* could improve quickly Am­erican opinion, and simultaneously create a muchbetter impression of Canadian mannen, if they remembered they were hosts, and that their visit­ors should be given all the "breaks of the road”to be expected from a host They are at home, the American driver is far from home. Canadiandriven do not need to tip their hats when theysee an American car, but they could at least tiptheir dimmers at night. They could keep to their own traffic lane on the roads, and watch theirdriving manners generally.Canadian drivers are under the eyes and in the midst of the present flood of American tourists,and they have a better chance than any otherCanadians to leave a good impression. Courtesy on the road/ or anywhere else, costs nothing. It is thesign of common-sense driven and of a generousand considerate people. Thoughtful gestures ofCanadian motorist* toward our visiton will send them home with respect for Canadian character­istics. instead of with rankling irritations.—From Tillaonburg News The annual picnic of the Ingersoll Packing Co. will be held at Wat- terworth’s grove, just west of the old fair grounds, McKeand street.

R. R. 1, Mossley.—From London Free Press The recent Embro games brought back some memories to Mr. C. B. Scoffin and hekindly brought into The Tribune the above historical picture which recalls the dayswhen men were men. It shows the Zorratug-of-war team, “winners of the cup andchampionship of America at World’s FairGames at Chicago, 1893.” The six good men and true are, left to right: Robert Mackin­ tosh, 216 pounds, £ ft. l’/2 inches; R. Mc­Leod, 197 pouitds, 6 ft. 21/2 inches: IraHaumason, 199 pounds, 6 ft., 2 inches; E.L. Sutherland, captain; Alex. Clark, 206pounds, 6 ft, 2 inches, and the lightweight,W. R. Munroe, 188 pounds, 6 ft. one inch.That's a mighty handsome trophy, too. There’s Something Very Fine About The Blind of Oxford The Romans used shorthand as early as 63 B.C. PIEfECl T. W. Waters JEWELLER Ingersoll There is happiness in seeing oth­ers happy. It is still greater happi­ ness to see the handicappel enjoyingthemselves. That is why we who at­tend the picnic held for the un­ sighted of Oxford County are thehappier for the event For, do notdoubt it, their blindness does not prevent them from wholeheartedenjoyment of the day’s outing. Per­haps because their comings andgoings are more restricted thanours, they get more fun out of theirpicnic than do most of us from asimilar event. They meet with their own kind; they are no longer thehandicapped among the-sighted, butare all on the same footing, people with the same problem, who like todiscuss with one another ways ofmeeting it. But they don’t merely sit and chat; the really play andhave fun doing it.The men line up and eat a cracker, endeavouring to be thefirst to whistle after downing itThey try to throw a ball intp a pail,guided only by* the sound of some­one tapping the pail with a stick.Many of them, too, hit the pail and one of them eventually drops theball squarely (or should it be round­ly?) into the'vessel. They blow upballoons and count jelly beans and do a dozen and ope other foolishand amusing things and take a keen delight in doing them.I think anyone who has comemuch in contact With these unsight­ed people is much struck with the fact that they are mostly happypeople, ready to laugh and jokr andtake what joy they can. Seldom are they morose or ill tempered, seldom,complaining. The motto adopted forthem by the Canadian Institute for the Blind, “Help the blind to helpthemselves’’, is a measure of theircapacity and their desire to lead normal lives.In any group of people there arealways one or two who stand out from the crowd. We have them inthis, personalities who would bepersonalities under any circum­ stances anywhere. Perhaps some ofIngersoll’s residents rememberGeorge Washington Jones. He used to come here in the days before theloud speaker and radio, whenever some event needed publicising. Herang a bell as he walked the streets, and in stentorian tones gave out thestirring news. He was reminiscent of the old Town Crier and a precur­sor of the modern loudspeaker He was old then; he is very old now, ashiny little black gnome of a man.His once ebony hair is grey, but ithas lost none of its thickness andcrinkle. He dresses carefully and is always very dapper in his hand-me- downs. His laugh is infectious andhis applause at his qt\n or the nextman’s win so hearty/that everyone joins in spontaneously. His “Thankyou, Marm”, as you render himassistance is a constant lesson inmanners, a reminder to a hurried andoften forgetful generation thatcourtesy is still a pleasant thing, and his “God bless you, Marm”, ashe receives his small gifts or has hisplate refilled, is a benediction worth receiving. George Washington Jones,one time slave or son of one, whomade his way by the Chatham routeto Canada and freedom, is a charac­ter once mef, not likely to be for­gotten. He may be ninety and minusteeth, as he explained when, having swallowed his dry biscuit first, hehad to call out instead of whistle,but he’s still a little dynamo of energy and goodwill; he’s still a bigpersonality.Another of an entirely different kind is Lucile of the sweet saintlikeface. She lives in a wheelchair, herlimbs twisted and helpless, her eyessightless, dependent alway on the great love and understanding of herparent^. But does she brim over with self pity? Not she. She studies fromthe braille and sits for exams as dothe more fortunate sighted pupils. With her twisted hands she knits sobeautifully that she is able to com­pete with and win against all comers at the Fall Fairs and at the TorontoExhibition. She smiles her sweetsmile and raises her poor wonderfullittle hand to yours in greeting.What a lesson in fortitude, in ambi­tion, in terrible handicaps over­come, is this Patient Griselda we know as Lucile.There’s something fine aboutevery one of the unsighted citiiens of Oxford County. Their blindnessseems to bring out and developqualities of mind that otherwise might lie dormant, jus't as the neces­sity of using them more fully devel­ops the senses still left to them. The pessimist may see deterioration andlittle of worth in the human animal, but you don’t meet and work withthe handicapped and remain a pes­simist. You recognise that essential worth is too often overlaid with theless pleasing attributes of humannature, but that it is there waiting only to be recognized and de­veloped.

The reason is thatpaying 4>y cash usually involvesmaking a tiresome round of storesand offices, whereas writing andmailing cheques does the same jobquickly and easily. / Another advantage is that carry­ing a cheque-book is much saferthan keeping large sums of cash inpocket or purse. Lost cash can bring trouble ranging from irritation totragedy. But a lost cheque-book costa nothing to replace and does not en­danger the owner’s savings.Should a filled-in cheque be mis­laid, a prompt call to the bank will stop payment of it Furthermore, acashed cheque automatically be­ comes a receipt thus giving thepayer extra protection.This modern way of paying bills isavailable to everyone at the Bank of Montreal.

The “Aboutown Sports” wai tohave taken the form of an obituarythis week for the "Softball Spirit”' in Ingersoll, but thanks to a tip fromPat Mahoney we were saved. Pat informed us of a league that is un­heard of by many of us, but to theHAS BEENS so called at their ownrequest it is a series of sweat anil , toil. You do not see any flashy ■sweaters, or large crowds out in thislittle field, behind the Machine Co., but there is a real exhibition ofgood sportsmanship.The teams in this league are made up from the various departments ofthe Machine Cq. There are few rulesand regulations and the person or persons who can outshout the um­pire wins the decision.Putting all this aside, we say hatsoff to these boys of the HAS BEENS —you are doing a fine job and itwould be great to see some of theother plants in town /ollow yourIWttcrn. Getting back to the local softballlight, we realize just how high the cost of living in Ingersoll and dis­trict must be. If you take time togaze over the following statistics you will no doubt agree with ourstatement: Average take per night..............$10.00 Expenditure* Softballs, 2 at $2.00..................$..4.00Plate umpire ..... 1.50 Base umpire ................................ 1.00Groundkeeper ....................................50 Qollector ......... 50 Total per game ......................... 7.50Total two games......................... 15.00Loss ...................... 5.00 This is not a statement by the lateRipley but the "Awful Truth”, that the take for a crowd of 1000 per­sons recently was only $15.00, anaverage of 1.5c cents per person. We all realize that “things is toff",but the league still has a debt ofsome $800 over its head and would appreciate a little more financialsupport as well as « cheering sectionat the games. Don’t you think it would be niceto see a team like the Frigidaires, with the support of Glen Bradfield,Ken Arnott, Bill Jordan and GumpThornton, not to menton others who are good baseball players, clayingBASEBALL in Victoria Park" on aSaturday'afternoon.

Elgin One of RichestDairy Districts in OntarioI The village of Mt. Elgin is “one of I Ihoe little place* that have run half­ way up the hill beneath the biasingsun and then sat down to rest as ifto say "i’ll cbnrti m, farther upward, c-omo what may’." Its population i*200, *nd th* community stands foremost in Dereham Township, Oxford County. In her history of Mt. Elgin BerthaGilbert say* that Dereham Townshipwas in early days called “old swampy Dereham," but through the thrift ofa fine type of pioneers has become one of the richest dairy districts in theprovince. William Hsmbley surveyed thetownship first in 1799. The land ar- ouhd Mt. Elgin wa* taken up by theHon. Robert Hamilton in 1800, andit was later made into village lots and farm*. The township wa* named bya duke visiting Tillsonburg. The high­est point in the district wa* calledDereham Heights, but during the reg­ime of Lord Elgin he passed throughthe settlement and the people were so impressed with his personality thatthey decided to name their villageafter him. I The first public highway, whichwas originally a plank road running from Port Burwell to Ingersoll, pas-i sed through Mt Elgin before the GreatWestern Railway was built through Ingersoll. Fine oak timber was used inthe construction of the road. In 1930it became highway No. 19. Mt. Elgin was a key point in the early trans­portation of Dereham Township.Some of the communities early families, like Harris, Scott, Tripp,Elliott, Collins, Hadock, Mitchel),Stevens, Miller, Varden. Mayberry ■nd Bodwell, are stfil numberedamong Mt Elgin's residents.As usual, the first industries were sawing and milling. But the villagealso had a cheese box factory, theproprietors of which obtained the con­tract for the building of the WellandCanal. There was an apple evapora-^ting plant in Mt. Elgin as well, and | List Schedule For Softball Schedule for remaining games inthe Ingersoll and district softballleague is listed below.

SLACKERS TOWELS SHEETS, ETC. Pupils Called Her “Brainy Says Star of Miss Bower Ry Frank TftkryTormttc, Star ttaff writer Ingersoll- “Work hard, play hard,and don’t mix them,” Mils Effie Boweradvised children today on her retire­ ment after 52 years' teaching inIngersoll public schools.At Victory Memorial school MissBower was feted by civic and educa­tional authorities, fellow teachers andparents with an array of gifts and anilluminated address of appreciationfrom Mayor J. G. Murray. But thepresent that caught her eye was thefancy lamp presented by the students, the last class of more than 2,000 boysand girls she has instructed during her Barnett Reunion The sixth annual Barnett reunion was held recently at Folden’s withabout 70 present.A picnic was followed by a business meeting conducted by the president,Howard Rawlings.Officers for 1950 are as follows:president, Joe Barnett; vice-presidenttRoy Barnett; sec. treas., Mrs. DaveBarnett; sports committee, Mr. and Mrs. Keith Geddie, Mr. and Mrs.Maurice Thornton; managementcommittee, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Barnett, Mr. and Mrs. Dave Barnett, Mr. andMrs Charles Hill.Sports under the direction of PatsyHughes, resulted as follows:6 yrs. and un^er—Julia Nancekivell,Mary Westover and Beth Barnett; Boys 9 and under—Kenneth Nance­kivell, Leonard Geddie;Girl* 9 and under,—Eileen Geddie, Ruth Almas;Boys 12 and under,—Jimmy Geddie,Grant Hughes; Girls 12 and under,—Doreen Almas,Donna Almas;single men—Jack Edwards; young ladies—Bernice Hill;married men—Max Almas;married ladies’ smallest waist Mrs. Gordon Edwards;Ladies longest foot, Mrs. RussellGeddie; Men’s guessing—Maurice Thornton;Oldbst person present,—CharlieAlmas. “Isn’t it just lovely^ she said, “andto think it came from them—the chil­dren. “I’ll miss the children so much,”she concluded, then went on to read apile of congratulatory messages from her "boys and girls," former studentsscattered throughout the U.S. andCanada. One woman of the three generationsMiss Bower has taught recalled howthey used to call Miss Bower “Brainy.” "She knew school work well and Iguess we nicknamed her that becausewe meant it,” the informant said. • Miss Bower was always cheerful—she had a way of getting the best outof children without losing her temper." “Young teachers don’t need myadvice," the retiring school teacherasserts. “Things have changed so much since I graduated, the teachersnow probably have new Sind betterideas." Never seriously ill, Miss Bower hasan outstanding record for regularattendance both as a teacher and student, and although she was onceprincipal of a public school, she can’tremember ever having given the strap.The best way to keep discipline inthe school-room is to “keep themhopping—busy,” Miss Bower said. “Only the lazy ones will not respondto it and I’ve had some that took con­siderable driving but they finally made it. A child who is controlled athome doesn’t need much controllingat school.” She thinks she’d rather teach theboys than girls, although the deci­sion is close and probably because her last class had mare boys than girls.“Perhaps,” she said, “boys aren'tso talkative as the girls.” Away from school Miss Bower tookup flower gardening as a hobby andspecialized in roses. “They’re beau­ tiful,” she said as she returned to hergarden today, “but they don’t sparklelike the eyes of eager children.” They refer to nature as a womanbecause they can’t find out how old she is.

The Canadian boat, Miss Canada IV, isbeing tested constantly on Lake Muskoka, near Gravenhurst, in the Muskoka region. Only problem seems to be finding a propeller which will give thecraft peak performance. At present, she is clocking100 miles an hour regularly, a. speed considered in­adequate by her owner and driver. Shown left. the boat is lowered onto a dolly at the GreavetteBoat Works plant in Gravenhurst. Pictured centre, in racing gear, are Charles Volker (left), engineer,and Harold Wilson, Ingersoll, the driver. Shownright, looking at the powerful 2,500-horsepower Rolls Royce Griffon engine, which so far has given perfect performance, are (left to right), HaroldWil$pn, driver; E. A. Wilson, Ingersoll, owner; James Hall, senior service engineer for Rolls RoyceLimited, Montreal, and Charles Volker. See Formidable Opposition From U.S.A. in Harmsworth When the entrants line up for thestart of the Harmsworth Trophy race on the Detroit river on July 30th, forthe first time in the forty-five yearhistory of racing for this champion­ ship trophy, Canada will be officiallyrecognized as a challenger.Lined up against “Miss Canada”IV" will be a formidable trio of United States racing motor boats, thebest selection from among 19 of themost powerful boats ever built in the United States. Elimination trialsto choose the U.S. team of three takesplace on the Detroit river July 23. Owned by E. A. Wilson of Inger­soll and driven by his son Harold,“Miss Canada IV’’is successor to the world speed record holding “Miss Can­ada III”, and the latest of a verysuccessful string of racing motor boats owned and driven by the Wil­sons over the past 15 years, GreavetteBoats Ltd. of Gravenhurst—having built all the others—were entrustedwith the building of “Miss CanadaIV” from Doug. Van Patten designs. Van Patten designed “Miss CanadaIII,” when he was designer at Grea­vette Boats in the years prior to the war. The newest Van Patten designfollows closely all the features that made “Miss Canada III” an outstand­ing running boat at high speed. Itis of added interest that “Astraea II” owned by Cameron Peck of Chicago(who summers at Baysville Ontario)and which is a strong contender for a place on the U.S. team was also des­igned by Van Patten and is of thesame “ Keel Knuckle” design. Both “Astraea II” and “Miss Can­ada IV” are almost identical in dim­ensions; of equal length “Miss Can­ada IV” has a few inches more beam at about 9% ft., than the Americanboat There is a lot of difference, how­ever, in the power of the two boats, “Astraea-II” has a 1500 h.p. Packardwhile a Rolls Royce “Griffon" of 2500h.p. will drive the Canadian chall­enger. Keel of “Miss Canada IV” is madeof white oak while the keelsons are laminated oak. Oak i£ used for string­ers, chine, and engine beds. Bolts andglue are used for fastening the main members. Frames are laminated.Bottom is double planked—the innerskin being % inch thick yellow birch over which is spread a layer of water­proof glue before screw fastening onthe outer skin of % inch African mahogany plywood. Side plankingand deckwood are also of mahoganyplywood.As may be expected of a boat built by Greavette Boats Ltd., "Miss Can­ada IV” is being well built to this company’s high standard of workman­ship—she will have varnished top-sides, like her predecessor.Some rule changes were made in the Haims worth Trophy rules in Decem­ber 1948 which made it possible forCanada to enter a boat for the race. This amendment allowed British Dom­inions to use British built and des­igned engines and also eliminated the requirements of hull design from Rule5 which saytf that competing boatsshall be designed by natives or natur­alized citizens of the country’ repres­ ented. tWhile this rule change trade itpossible for “Miss Canada IV" to be 1 powered by a Rolls Royce engine, ithas also caused some misunderstand­ ing as to what qualifies as a Britishengine and already protests have beenmade against a recent ruling that U.S.i entries could not use Packard-Merlin (Rolls Royce) engines built in Det­roit during the war. Two U.S. boatshave installed these engines and con­ siderable controversy has now takenplace as to their eligibility. Theseboats are the “Eager Beaver" (How­ ard Eager of Detroit) and the “Sheri-Sar" (Ted Newkirk of Pontiac).The Harmsworth course is one ofseven nautical miles and a race is a distance of six laps or 42 nauticalmiles. Only restriction on the hull isthe limitation on the length to one of not more than 40 ft., and the banningof any mechanical means to take ad­vantage of external air pressure toproduce or assist planing.Being a team race, “Miss CanadaIV” and the other challenger AchilleCastoldi of Italy, are at a disadvant­ age in having to race each other andalso defeat three American boats any one of which can win points to hiscountry’s benefit Two wins out ofthree races decide^ the winning coun­try. It is not generally recognized that the Harmsworth Trophy is arace between countries—the recogn­ized club of that country selecting the entrants. In the United States theYachtsmen’s Association of Americais that dub and in Canada it is theMotor Boat Club of Canada—formedin November 1948. Neither the Amer­ican Power Boat Association nor theCanadian Boating Federation of Can­ ada has any jurisdiction over theHarmsworth Trophy, its rules, northe conduct of the race. A list of the boats requesting aplace on the U.S. team is given here­after, and while some are not exp­ ected to be in racing trim by qualify-in day, July 23rd, the list neverthe­less shows the formidable opposition being presented the Canadian andItalian challengers. A win for eitherchallenger, therefore, would carry with it considerable prestige. Details of these boats follow, giv­ing the boat dimensions and horse­ power and type of hull. R.

BARKER As the months spin by, and Springbecomes just a memory, home gar­deners are inclined to review the sea­son now over and weigh their success against their failures and when theevidence is all in, without a doubt theweather will be blamed for whatever happened.For myself the Doffs and Tulips werewonderful. Iris in places got some frost, and no other flower so dependson the sun to put life into its color.Roses are budding left and right and the Delphiniums were mostwonderful up to the time of the storm.However, we can cut them back and be assured of more bloom later on.Of course, that teaches us a lesson totie up all tall growing flowers. Thetime is rife now to change your garden plans a little, for the catalogues ofbulbs, etc., are already at hand, uponthe planting you do from now until fall, greatly depends the beauty ofyour garden next Spring.He who plants a garden, And plants a sapling tree,Is leaving “footprints in the sand",For all posterity. Who sows the seeds in SpringtimeWill reach a gardener’s goal,And in the reaping he will findSweet manna for his soul.—Good Gardening.

Onthat memorable occasion, both Wood in the Miss America X and Don inMiss England III, beat the gun bymore than the stipulated allowance and were disqualified. The result wasone of the wildest days the Detroitriver has ever known. It was labelled a “Yankee Tiick” in many sources—but the trophy remained in America.In the latest rules governing thestart, laid down by the JJnion. of Int­ernational Motorboating, a boat isonly penalized in time for beating the gun up to two full minutes, and thereis little likelihood of a boat being thatjjar ahead of the official start.Under these rules, as specified in the1949 Rule Book, the boats which start before time will be penalized asfollows:For 1 second early: 20 secondspenalization; for 2 seconds early: 40 seconds penalization; for 3 secondsearly: CO seconds penalization, etc.,up to two minutes. Above two min­ utes. the boat shall be disqualified.There-afe way# in the new startingrules by which a boat can be disqual­ ified other than being two minutesahead of the starting gun. The codenow states, specificatty, that “a boat which crosses the line in either dir­ection after the preparatory five min­ute signal is given will be disquali­fied.” The rule further states that duringthe five minutes preceding the start,no boat shall run in reverse direction of the race in front of the startingline. And, further, "no boat shall beallowed to start after the first boatwhich finishes the race has arrived.”Thus, under these rules, there islittle likelihood of the wild start thatmarked the most famous of all Har­ msworth starts—the day that Woodand Don were disqualified and theBritish challenger finally capsized onthe first turn.Along with the change in the start­ing rules, the Union of Internat­ional Motorboating also announced that the Harmsworth Course in theDetroit River, which calls for drivingunder the Belle Isle Bridge twice oneach lap had been approved. - Following the Harmsworth race, onAugust 1st a marathon event of 100miles will be run for special prizes and trophies—this race will be opento all boats with motors over 400 cu­bic inches and most of the Harms­worth contenders are expected to com"pete. A large field is assured.(From Boating Magazine) There are danger points in theprogressive steps between the non­swimmer and the expert, the non­ swimmer is usually very respectful ofwater and therefore careful about taking chances. The expert has pro­bably had one or two experiences withcramps, exhaustion and other aquatic,dangers and is also careful. * yThe time of greatest danger to-4heindividual boy or girl i# just after they learn to take their first strokes orpass their 50 foot beginners test. Theswimmer feels a great elation, an up­ surge of confidence, a terrific desire totry the new wings. The parents areproud that Johnny or Betty is now a swimmer and feel that they are awayin a cloud of foam. You could use allthe stop signs and red lights in Ing­ ersoll without effect.When the beginner for the firsttime says in awe and wonder “I can swim”,—WATCH OUT. The boundsof caution drop, daring increases, andtragedies develop. An extra couple of weeks of care and practise at thispoint under good supervision will savehundreds of lives. Practise—Practiseand more praetist is the only answerto this danger and that practise shouldbe done under adequate? supervision and if possible with a chum. It is def­initely safer and more interesting to swim with a partner as in the Buddysystem used at the Y.M.C.A., campsand Red Cross all over the world. The Y.M.C.A.

YOU ARE NOW READY FOR LIFE SAVING Celebrate Their Diamond Wedding Beachville—The diamond weddinganniversary of Mr. and Mrs. John German, was celebrated July b,when their family, grandchildrenand great-grandchildren numbering62, gathered for a picnic at thehome of their daughter, Mrs. CarlHeeney and Mr. Heeney of West Oxford. The tables were decoratedwith roses and delphinium and athree-tiered wedding cake adorned the head table.The young folks enjoyed a ballgame and after supper assembled for a program which includedspeeches by two sons of thecouple, Rev. J. W. German of Fol- lerville, Mich., and James German,of Milford, Mich. A singsong wasled .by another son, Rev. Haro)d German.of Toronto, and vocal duetswere given by Patsy and Ann Ger-^man of Follerville, and Nancy and Ronald German of Toronto.Mr. and Mrs. German were pre­sented with suitable gifts for whichthey expressed their hearty thanks. The sons and daughters . were allpresent for the first tim^Jn manyyears. The other of four sons is Georgeof New Westminster, B.C., now athome to regain his health. There are also five daughters, Mrs. W.Armstrong, (Catherine), jlrs. S. R.Galpin, (May), Ingersoll; Mrs. CarlHeeney, (Nina), West Oxford;Mrs. Clarence Paterson, (Sarah),Montreal and Mrs. Alf. Lacey,(Alice), Ingersoll. Says Extra Salt Needed in Heat The body is actually a “heat machine” which goes through a pro­cess of de-mineralization during hotsummer weather. This is the claim of R. M. Rowat,development manager of C.I.L.’s saltdivision, who states that when the body is affected by external heat itloses much of its salt content which isessential for the proper functioningof its cooling system. He explains that excess perspirationduring hot weather carries mineralscut of the body —- particularity sod­ium chloride, chemical name for com­mon salt. If the norma] intake of saltis not increased, its lack may showup in a variety of symptoms, the most severe being heat prostration.In industrial plants where hot,humid weather often cuts working efficiency in half, many employershave placed salt tablet dispensersbeside water fountains. Resultant’ jump in efficiency was amazing. In rural areas both stock and far­mers suffer from the heat due to thestrenuous work in the open, sun-beaten fields. Salt supply of animalscan be taken care of by having salt blocks or licks made available to them.Farmers and their hired help canretain their energy by using more salt on their meals or carrying a smallsalt shaker in the hip pocket when<^ut in the field and taking the odd bek of salt crystals. Salt tablets can ■also be purchased in most drugstores. Hottentot women use butter, aoot and buchu (a tropical plant) leavesRabbits breed 4 to 8 times a year.as perfume. Height is frequently an advantage in the location of a town, but to Mos­sley, little South Dorchester villageconsisting of a store, service station, church, school and a handful of hou­ses, it proved the greatest detriment in its history.Mossley is located on the highest ele­vation of land in North Dorchester Township, and it was this that restr­icted growth of the village, for whenthe Canadian Pacific, or Credit Valley Railway, was built through the areain 1880, it followed the more levelground, with the result that Mossley had to be content with a station halfa mile from the village proper.The "coup de grace" was adminis­tered when the station, instead ofbeing named Mossley, was namedHarrietsville after another village twoand a half miles south of Mossley and two miles from the railway station.Richard J. Jelly, a descendant of theoriginal settlers, explained it this way: "The Harrietsville people werejust a bit too smart for Mossley. Theygot ahead of us. They named it and had it all sealed and signed before TEN COMMANDMENTS FOR BABY SITTER Fire Chief Dick Ellis has issuedthe following Ten Commandments for Baby Sitters, which it is probable allother fire departments will heartilyconcur with. 1— Memorize fire department tele­phone number.2— Know the correct address of thehome you are in. 3— Stay awake.4— Be calm. 5— Be sure the telephone is in work­ing order.6— Talk slowly and distinctly whenmaking a fire call. 7— If you do not have time to usethe telephone, be sure to take baby orchildren with you when you leave thehouse.8— Be sure to close door behind youwhen leaving the house. 9— When out of the house, notifynearest neighbor of the fire.10—Don’t Lose Your Head! most peoplejwoke up. It wa# just asmart littlc^&me.”Mr. Jelly, whose father. William H, Jelly, came to Mossley from Brook­ville at the age of 12, was the first ofthree generations of veterinaries. The school still stands today on thesite where the original school wasbuilt in 1850. The Wesleyan Methodist Church was built in 1862 on Conces­sion 3 about one mile from Mossley.The first store was run tyy GeorgeMain. George Henry Amos built a store in 1863, and the post office wasestablished in 1866. John Mossop, acarperiter-farmer, helped solicit the charter for the post office and urgedthat the place be called Amosvilleafter George Amos. But due to a similarity with other names it wasfinally decided to call it Mossley.(London Free Prete) CENTREVILLE TAKES FOLDEN’S 12—2 In a scheduled South OxfordSoftball League game at Folden’s July 4, Centreville displayed theirbest form of the season by defeat­ing the hard hitting Folden’s team, 12-2. .

There ought to be a song about “Make it in the morn­ing, serve it in the evening,” so wecould enjoy the summer afternoons. Instead, many of us dread cooking anevening meal or worry about “thedinner” when we are away for the day. What we need to do most is planahead and shop in advance as muchas possible. If there are guests for dinner, plan a menu which will leaveyou free to enjoy their company, onewhich can be served simply. For instance, if you are elected to meet the bus and chauffeur the Insti­tute speaker to the meeting, thenbring her home to dinner, leave everything ready: Chilled fruit juicewith tiny cheese biscuits, a casseroleof chicken (pastry top) that reheatsin 20 minutes, small peeled tomatoesrolled in minced parsley and nuts,shelled peas you can cook in 12 min­ utes, fresh chilled berries and creamwith sugar cookies for desert. Maybe the whole family are going to the garden party where they willhave afternoon tea! With this in mind,plan a light supper: Cream of potato­cheese soup, tomato and cucumbersandwiches, cherry up side down cakeand tea.' There are occasions when you driveto a meeting twenty miles or so awayand leave the family to put the finish­ ing touches to their own supper. Forsuch meals, we suggest sliced coldmeat, tomato jelly with lota of vege­tables, macaroni salad with mincedgreen onion, berry tarts and coldchocolate milk.You may be one of the many home­makers who spend a good deal of timeoutdoors helping with the harvest or picking berries. If unexpected com­pany arrives and you- have precookeda shank for stew and there is not suf­ ficient—add a can of oxtail soup ormake a few dumplings instead «fpouring in extra water. For extra dessert, crumble graham crackers orrice krispies among fresh berries. You may have a tin of fruit on theshelf which you can serve -in thinbuttered slices in place of cake or cookies.For a hot summer afternoon, pre­pare a tart drink in the morning by INGERSOLL GIRL IN CAPPING CEREMONIES BETTY BRADFORD of Ingersoll, on the staff of Victoria Hospital, London,was among the “big sisters” who parti­ cipated in capping ceremonies at thehospital recently as 26 junior nursesreached the first stage of their career. cooking rhubarb in lota of water.Sweeten as it cooks.

Nowadays there is a continuous ••stream of literature pouring from the g>presses of every country, but of it ail f« only an infinitely small part will live t)beyond the century. Perhaps that has di always been true, but until the last «hundred years or so, comparatively Ffew people were writing. Those who * did were likely to be Very literate, ordefinitely inspired, or sometimes both. •'These last we have with us still. It Awasn’t possible for the many to write,even if nature had cast them for the role of teller of tales. They were un- n< able to read, much less set down in­telligibly the thoughts that undoubt­ edly filled the minds of many of them. JThat too was true of the wandering minstrels and tale-tellers of an earlier 11 age, but they were fortunate enough “to be able to gather an audiencewherever they happened to be. Thenobi s and gentry in their halls wel­ comed them and the lowlier peoplegathered about them in the market­place to hear the wonderful stories they told of far away places. Mostly ,they drew on their fertile imaginations as still do the spinner of yarns aboutother worlds and their weird inhab-itants. Sometimes, like Marco Polo, they had travelled in foreign lands. and simply embroidered the truth tomake it more facinating for the simplefolk who would listen openmouthedand believe the unbelievable. It is always easy to believe the fantasticso long as it is told of other landsand other people.Now, with,, everyone able to read' and forever wanting new reading matter, the market has become con­siderably extended. Probably themajority of readers are satisfied to accept anything so long as it helpsto fill in an idle hour. We haven’t become more discriminating as more ‘material became easily available.Indeed, because of the vast output and the impossibility of sampling itall, we are very, likely to accept the word of the pushful publisher, andread only from his lush list of best­ sellers. This is an up-to-date form ofregimentation which the free mindabhors. There’s no doubt the earlier . searcher after life’s truths got more’ mental sustenance from the few books of hjs age, than the omnifarious,e skimmer of the thousand and one fly-11 by-nights of our times. n Books live because they have proved11 U»e»r worth.
