A. Wilson, blew up and sank in 90 seconds. The Ingersoll people were among 16 aboard the cruiser to watch Miss Canada running pre-Harmsworth trials on lake Muskoka, near Gravenhurst. Suffering broken limbs, burns and shock, the eight were rushed finally to •Bracebridge hospital, but are now well on the road to recovery and all will be home in Ingersoll this week-end. Rescuers said it was miraculous that no one died in the blast heard four miles away. The ill-fated Sarah Maude is shown in the above picture moored by the prow to Gull Island, 100 yards from the scene of the neartragedy. Eight Ingersoll People Escape Death A s “Sarah Maude” Explodes and Sinks Eight Ingersoll people, only seconds away from death last week-end whenJthe boat in which they were riding ex­ ploded and sank in 90 seconds, today are oh the road to recovery either in hospital or in their Ingersoll homes.The eight were part of a party of 16 aboard E. A. Wil­ son’s cruiser, Sarah Maude, watching Harold Wilson put hisMiss Canada IV through its paces preparatory to the Harms- worth trophy races at Detroit, July 29-30. The Sarah Maudewas stationed in Lake Muskoka, near Gravenhurst, in charge of Mrs. Harold Wilsbn. The boat began to drift toward MissCanada IV’s course, and Mrs. Wilson pushed the starter to move her back. There was a flash of flame, a boom that couldbe heard for miles, and in the next seconds the Sarah Maude was under water, bits of her blown hundreds of yards, and16/nen, women and children—burned, broken and stunned— were struggling for their lives in the 100-foot lake. “It Was a Miracle” “Hell couldn’t possibly be more terrifying than those in­ describable minutes we floundered dazed, burned and bleed­ ing in a sea of blazing debris,” said Gerald Richardson,Toronto Star photographer, who was aboard the Sarah Maude, along with his mother, aunt, wife and two small children.“It was only a miracle no one was killed by the blast, or drowned,” said Provincial Constable Cyril Pinder, Brace­bridge. The eight Ingersoll people aboard were: Mrs. L. K. Coles, Oxford St., wife of Oxford’s clerk, burned. Bobby Coles, 7, broken leg, broken arm, broken teeth.; (now home). Roger Coles, 3, broken leg; (home.) Mabel Clark, fiancee of Charlie Volker, Harold Wilson’smechanic, burned, cracked ankle, broken arm. Margaret Start, 13, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Royden G.Start, Thames St. S., burned. Doreen Uren, 13, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Uren,Charles St. W., burned. Mrs. Harold (Lorna) Wilson, Oxford St, split toe and ' shock. A. R. Horton, Ann St., shock, (home.) All the other Ingersoll casualties are expected home by this week-end.

Special $2 Ticket Ready For Those Driving To Detroit A limited numer of tickets havebeen made available for those whowould like to view the Harmsworthtrophy race July 30 from the specialIngersoll Kiwanis stand, but whowill be driving down, and not taking the special buses. This is announcedby the special Kiwanis committeelooking after arrangements for the excursion to the famous speedboatrace, to watch Harold Wilson andhis Miss Canada IV challenge the U.S. for world speedboat supremacy.Bleachers right across from thestart and finish of the races at De­ troit and capable of handling 500people, have been reserved for Ing­ersoll. Special buses are — going, and hundreds of people fromLondon, Woodstock, Norwich, To­ronto, Tillsonburg, Thamesford, Ingersoll and many other communi­ties have purchsed tickets for $6.75which take them to the race, to areserved seat and back.The buses, incidentally, will be leaving the Ingersoll terminal at 12noon Saturday, July 30. After therace, which will be around 7 p.m., people who want to return rightaway, will be able to do so providing they fill complete buses. For thosewho want to stay, the buses will bestationed at the tunnel and, to move off not later than midnight, daylightsaving time. Mr. Grant Small is mak­ing those arrangements. Because a number of people wantto sit in the Ingersoll section, but preferred to get to Detroit undertheir own steam, .the Kiwanis com­ mittee decided to make a limitednumber of such tickets available. They will cost a net of $2.00, andwill be good only for the seating there. Deadline for all-round ticketsis July 23, and persons who want them are asked to buy them imme­diately. Hit By Bolt, Knocked Cold Finds Kiddie’s Trike Did It also DON TO DESCRIBE HARMSWORTH ON AIR C. E. Luno, Canterbury St., is wondering whether it’s safe to evenleave your bed these days.He was pedalling peacefully home from his job at the Machine Com­pany the other day, when all of asudden he was struck by a bolt of lightning. At least that’s what hethought it must have been.However, the next thing he knew was he was at home, nursing a realbump on the back of his head, andfriends were telling him just whathappened.He had been hit by a tricycle!“I was busy looking out for someyoungsters who were running back and forth across the road,” he re­lated, “and that’s the last thing Iremember." It seems that while hewas looking out for those young­sters, another even smaller one camewhipping down Bond St., and slam­right into Mr. Luno. Out Lika Light Mr. Luno went down flat and outlike a light. Nothing happened to the boy, buthe took one look at Mr. Luno’s inertform, figured he’d at least killed him, and terrified by the power hepossessed, he ran screaming home tomother. Friends carried Mr. Luno home.And now he’s added trikes toother hazards to look out for. Plenty of things happened toother Ingersoll residents, too. JackLove went visiting friends on Ox­ ford* St., and parked his car outfront A few moments later, he gota call from a friend, Ron Skinner,to the effect he’d better get out­side, his car was going down the hill—by itself—and backward.Jack got outside, but a post beathim to it. The car backed right into it, or itwould probably have been goingyet. Then at the corner of Oxford andAnn streets, Dave Campbell of Wal­ker Stores, and Mr. Lyle Mansfield, Dufferin St., had a bit of a set-to,too. This time it was bike versus car. It seems Mr. Campbell was driv­ing west on Ann, and just crossing the intersection, as Mr. Mansfieldwas heading north—on his bicycle— on Oxford St. Mr. Campbell just hadtime for a friendly wave as Mr.Mansfield went by—or, allegedly went by.Mr. Campbell heard a crash andgot out to see bits of bicycle on the back of his car, and Mr. Mansfieldrolling down the road.Mr. Mansfield was not seriously hurt, but his bicycle needs a majorbefore it takes the road again. Down on Charles St East DouglasBruce of Ingersoll, was having his troubles, too.A U.S. car ducked into Rusty'sgrill for a snack, but he ducked a bit too quick for Douglas, or notquick enough, for Douglas hit him.. And in the brief moment Douglas had to wonder what had happened,another U. S. car driVert-by Donald Graham of Detroit wacked into the Ingersoll car.Total damage—about $500, plusat least tfiree sets of shattered nerves. Truck in Creek And down by the creek just backof the Public Utilities building. Councillor Leo Ranger was havinghis troubles, too.He was manoeuvring his cartage truck around the area, when all ofa sudden he found he’d backed intothe creek and his truck's nose was raised at a most undignified angle.While Councillor Ranger ponder­ed ways and means to get out, some­one passed the unkind remark it was a cheap way to get a car wash, andsomeone else, a safe distance away,chuckled as he asked the councillor if he was down there to get a drink.All of which highly amusingchatter, did little to get the truckback on its feet. Finally Mr. Ranger got out Odell and Allen and thetruck came out, little or no damageto it, but no doubt some to Mr. Ranger’s temper. In The Garden “What a Terrible Sight” First back to Ingersoll after the accident which saw des­truction of the 33-foot cruiser exactly one year to the day after the death of the lady after whom it was named, Mrs. E. A.Wilson, Mr. Horton saidjc "I hope I .never see such a terrible sight again. Why a l<5t of people weren’t killed or drownedI’ll never know. Luckily, I was standing on the front deok, and blown clear. First I was on the deck—then in the water.That’s all I know.” Nobody knows exactly what causejj the explosion, but itis assumed there was loose gasoline and a free spark some­ where. Pieces of decking and hatch covers flew 50 feet in theair, and the cabin roof flew off, to land upside down in the lake. Several people were blown into the water, the others suddenly found themselves there as the Sarah Maude went down by the stem. Only four of the group could swim, and the others owe their lives to them, floating debris, blown out lifebelt cushions, and the speedy appearance on the scene of dozens of rescue boats, along with Harold Wilson and Charles Volker, who roared flp in Miss Canada IV. It happened a few moments after two p.m., Saturday. By A. P. BARKER Well we don’t have to water thelawn, wonderful rains the last fewdays,—now lets cultivate and hold themoisture. Still time to plant a few veg­etables for fall. This is a good time to plant Can­terberry Bells and Delphinium seed,and remember that in order to have bloom next year we must sow seednow.What about your Dahlias? Haveyou them staked up? If you wantlarge bloom just leave one strong stemthey need a lot of water at bloomingtime and also a lot of fertilizer. The Regal lilies have been wonder­ful and are almost through for ano­ther year. A good way to get Regal bulbs, is to save three or four seedpods and sow them this fall and inno time you will have small bulbsand will have a lovely lot of blooms.It is surprising the size bloom youwill get from such a small bulb. Better get your Iris planted if youintend to have a few for next year, don’t plant them deep, just leave themon top and put the roots well down.Don’t forget to plant a tree today. An Ingersoll bowling team com­ prising Albert Warham, Arthur Izz-ard, Byron Jenvey and Abe Jew­ett went to Tillsonburg last Wed­nesday for the McDonald Trophy, and placed fourth. Those unable to join the IngersollKiwanis Harmsworth excursion to Detroit July 30, will at least be ableto listen to Harold Wilson’s attemptto seize the world’s speedboat title from the U.S. Don Fairbairn, well-known “Neighborly News’’, announ­cer, informs The Tribune the CBC has obtained the Canadian broadcastrights for the race, and he Don Fair­bairn, will describe the event July29 and 30, and August 1, too, if athird heat is required. Definitetimes of the broadcasts will be an­ nounced later. Corp. Jack Callander was a har­assed, and busy min Tuesday; thatwas the day the hew stop lights went up—or on—at King and Ox­ford streets. The lights had beensitting there lightless for twomonths, and when finally the neces­sary 400 feet of cable was found,and the lights started blinking, it was a great surprise to most mot­orists—and they were going throughthe red light in droves. Corp. Cal­lander would be busy telling one. chap red now meant stop only, tohave a couple more .go whistling by.After the novelty wears off, he says, to go through a red light will meanjust that—and ticket. Corp. Jack Callander bumped in­to five prowlers the other night, buthe . let them go their way. They were Mother Skunk and her kit­ tens.______________________________ Miss Canada IV May Be Shown Here Ere Race for Loved, Respected By All J. J. “Jimmy” Knapp Is Dead Miss Canada IV, challenger ...the Harmsworth trophy may be on display in Ingersoll for half a daynext Tuesday, July 26. The boat isgoing to Detroit, probably Wednes­day, preparatory to the race Friday, and it is hoped to have her herefor a while en route, possibly be­tween four and eight p.m. Watch'The Tribqne window for definte time.It was hoped incidentally, to takea crack at the world’s speedboat re­cord of 141 miles an hour, before the big race, but now the run is offuntil after it It was found that at least 10 days' notice had to begiven prior to a record try, and theWilson’s decided it was too close to the H a r m s w o r t h .___ There Was a Dull Boom Described by spectators and city newspapers as a heroine of the near­tragedy, Mrs. Wilson told PhyllisGriffiths, of the Toronto EveningTelegram, what happened: We in the Sarah Maude were allset to watch the trials, and Harold hadjust got Miss Canada nicely warmed up when I noticed the anchor hadn’tcaught and we were drifting out onthe course. I decided we’d have to move farther in, and pushed the but­ton to start the port engine. It would*n’t start, and I turned it off and push­ ed the button to start the starboardengine.“There was a dull boom. For a sec­ ond it was hard to realize what hadhappened. I looked up to see the roofof the cabin coming down on me. Iducked. As I ducked, I saw flames coming up through the bilge,' so Iturned off the one ignition and check- ed the other. It was off. “Pieces of the roof and cabin hadfallen on me. Something had my legCinned. I think it was part of the ack. I got myself free and dived overthe starboard side, through a windowI think. I couldn’t get out of the backof the cabin. It was a shambles. People Were Moaning “People were moaning inwater. Those on the fore deckbeen blown right into the lake----- weren’t hurt, but the ones at the -backweren’t so lucky. That’s where thefire was. Their clothes were on fireand some were hurt. “The rest of us all grabbed some­body. I got Mrs. Millicent Myles. Shehad a wound in her forehead. butwasn't unconcious, just dazed.. Bythat time Harold had rushed over inMiss Canada, and he and Charlie(Continued on page 8) CLARK DANIEL WEDSHELEN C.

Replaces S t Paul’s Organ Installed By Grandfather Back in the middle 90’s, Edward Lye, of Toronto, one of the country’sgreat organ manufacturers, came upto Ingersoll and installed an organ in St. Paul’s- Presbyterian church. -Today his grandson is installing the new one. ,His grandson is William Lye, and he is busy tearing down some of thework of nis grandfather and install­ ing the latest model of the musical ins­trument developed and built origin­ally by the grandfather in a Torontowoodshed. The original organ was installed at St Paul’s, when Dr. E. R.Hutt was pastor.While the first organ had about 150 pipes, the new one, which will beready August 1, has around 1400. Italso will have chimes. The chimes area legacy of Miss Janet McKellar, former Ingersoll librarian.Mr. Lye, only 38, and head of the Lye organ firm which’ was founded in1864, recalled that when his grand­father installed the old organ, therewas a clause which said the churchdidn’t have to pay anything for itfor a year, by which time they could have decided if it were suitable.But while they have built and in­stalled hundreds of organs, claiming to have one in every town betweenHamilton and .Windsor, not one ofthe Lyes in the’iirm plays the organ.“No ear for music, I guess,” chuck­ les William. thehadand Mr. and Mrs. P. J. Watkinson ofKodiak, Alaska, have been visitorsthis week with their cousins, Mr. andMrs. Ira Burge and Mrs. Ethel Simp­son.

Ditched, Note Car Find It’s Stolen Provincial Constables Scott Fair­service and Harold Chislett were pea­ cefully patrolling east toward Beach-ville the other morning, when a carroared around a bend toward them “at a very high rate of speed.”There was only one thing Fairser­vice could do — and they did it Theywent into the ditch. But distracted as thevawere, they still had the pres­ence dTmJnd to get the car’s number,and relay It to London, and even fur­ ther.The car was going' so fast that itwas through London before a roadblock .could be set up, but it was fin­ally bagged just past Thamesville. Ithad been stolen in Toronto, and cariried seven people. But when Fair­service and Chislett hit for the ditch, they didn't know it-had been stolen.

In this way flies give people typhoid fever, dysentery and worms, to mention a few diseases only. They carry the germs of the ‘sum­ mer diarrhoea' which is so highly fatal-to infants, and may play a part in the spread of poliome- litis.” The Scottish publication calls for a never-end­ ing war on flies, as does Margaret E. Smith in an article ‘‘The Fly: Enemy of Man” in the magazine HEALTH, published by the Health League of Canada. Miss Smith, who is Director of the Nutri­ tion Division of the Health League, says that any liquid or solid food that fly has been in contact ■with is unfit for human consumption. In regard to the possibility flies have much to do with the spread of polio, Miss Smith quotes researchers who have found that milk contamin­ ated by flies was either directly or indirectly the source of the polio virus; that the house fly and the blow fly carried the virus on both the outside and inside of their bodies more often than any other species of insects investigated. Flies breed at such a pace that it has been estimated that even if only a small proportion survive, the offspring of one female house fly will in seven weeks number 432,00. So, swat that fly—get rid of him by any means but get rid of him—and protect your food and keep your garbage covered. Flies are filthy in- sect* with dirty habits. Dirt spells disease, so— banish the dirt and you will banish the dirt disease. Eating Ourselves Sick? A London dentist. Dr. St. Clair Wilson, Londonsecondary school dentist, has left for the Arctic where he will treat Eskimo patients. It i* inter­esting to observe that the request for Dr. Wilson’sservice* came from the Arctic Diocese of the Ang­ lican Church, and that it waa made because it hasbeen found that the modern Eskimo is sufferinggreatly from tooth troubles—since the introduct­ion of the white man’s food. Dr. Wilson will havehis hands full. Almost every plane flying out ofAklavik carries patients to the nearest dentist.The questions that arise are:—What is wrongwith the white man’s food and what was goodabout the natural food of the Eskimo before thewhite man introduced hi* version of food to the Arctic? The Eskimo in the old days ate raw meat,whale and seal. He ate raw fi»h. He ate polarbear. Those who protested that man cannot live entirely on meat were refuted by the Canadianexplorer, Stefansson who dwelt there for a year,well and healthy and eating only meat As for the white man's way of eating there aremany investigators and observed who hold that itit is at the root of all our ills. They argue thatover-concentrated, over-refined foods, faulty mix­ tures of foods, over-eating, the hearty use ofsugar, salt and spices, together with lack of exer­cise needed to insure proper digestion are thecause of many of our diseases. Some people eatto live and others live to eat.It is not a new theory, any more than vegetar­ ianism, or whole grain diets, or milk diets are newbut it might be worth more investigation than itis receiving. A research survey into the white man's way of eating might pay off handsomely. Itmight save future generations a lot of grief andtrouble, as 'well as doctor's bills—London Free Press.

Hanrahan, recently * sentenced four drunk drivers to 10 days in jail. The penalty is usually seven days, but the magis­ trate remarked "the shorter term does not appear to be acting as a deterrent.” To our mind, 10 days is still far too light for the offence. It takes some people almost that long just to sober up. Driving while drinking should be one of the most serious offences on the’ books Too many people have died—and are dying'“daily under the wheels of vehicles driven by people who have had ‘‘just a few”, and ‘‘certainly not enough to impair their driving abilities,” to con­ sider it just a seven-day or ]0-day offence. Why, you get a year for stealing a car, and to us that isn’t nearly the crime., that driving while drinking is. When a drinking driver gets loose on the road, the odds, are all against the unsuspecting, inno­ cent pedestrian, home dweller and fellow motor­ ist. He’s like lightning—you can’t tell where he’s going to strike. He doesn't know, and what is worse, nor do you. He is in exactly the same cate­ gory as the madman with a loaded gun, he doesn’t know what he’s doing and he is liable to do any­ thing. But while the madman may not be respon­ sible for his conduct, the drinking driver is. i The law sholud be stiffened to see that the drinking driver’s responsibilities are brought home to him. Keep Cycles Off Walks They Are A Menace It is high time, we think, that the authorities cracked down on cyclists using the sidewalks of the town as a thoroughfare. x Sidewalks are not the place for bicycles, and so the law decrees, but they seem to be getting more and more popular, and it’s more than one’s life is worth to get in the way of some meager beaver en route to the pool, or elsewhere. To try and dodge a speeding bicycle, while loaded down with groceries and assorted* parcels—as some people have-to do—is no joke; in fact, it’s an im­ possibility. And bicycles can cyuse serious injury. Perhaps there was an excuse for bicycles on sidewalks a short time ago. The roads were ter­ rible, even for automobiles. But now the roads are as smooth as glass, and a treat for any cyclist. Back in 1895, West Oxford township council passed a by-law forbidding bicycle riding on side­ walks. This action was taken "as a result of com­ plaints from parties living in Beachville who have had children run over and injured by careless rid­ ers. The penalty is limited to $20 or 30 days in jail. The dangers of sidewalk riding is still with Us. A warning to most cyclists might be sufficient When Will Our Cities Wake Up? Not one of the larger and fast-growing citiesof Canada could be truthfully described as a beau­ty spot. When showing them off even the mostardent of local boosters usually wishes he couldblindfold his visitors when traversing certain ill- planned areas. And by no means are these sectionsconfined to the first built up parts either. Someof the very worst examples arc found along thefringes, where only a few years ago were open fields, clear streams and woods.But if we are ashamed of such places now, weare going to be doubly ashamed in the future, un­ less our city and suburban authorities drasticallychange their ways. For years we have heard agreat deal of talk about town planning, but from Victoria to St, Johns that is About as far as wehave gone.Some time ago a group of public-spirited citizens in the Greater Toronto area brought out a planfor future growth covering the next hundredyears. It was termed a "Green Belt” program and covered an area for 75 miles around the city.Under this plan advantage would be taken of lo­cal topography. On the outskirts certain areaswould be definitely reserved for farming, others for parks and game conservation. Nearer the cityresidential, business and industrial areas would . be laid out and maintained indefinitely by rigid I,and binding restrictions.With such a plan one would be able to buy or build with confidence, would know in advancehow his neighborhood would develop. Instead ofthe present hodgepodge of growth, with indus­ trial, residential and business property all hope­lessly mixed, with through and local traffic snar­ling each other, there would be definite and plan­ ned growth.And what happened?. After a little discussion nothing more has been heard of the plan in official Toronto circles andlast week "the county authorities voted for re­jection. And that’s the sort of treatment suchplans have been getting all over Canada.More than half of the people of Canada live in large and fast-growing cities. Congested and.uncomfortable as many of them find their livingspace to-day it will be far worse tomorrow unless they insist on their municipal authorities facingthe growth problem now.—Financial Post. So-Called Sportsmen The carefree trigger-happy sportsman wasabout to rid Canada of the beluga, a four-thous­ and pound mammal inhabiting Hudson Bay andUngava, when the Federal Government at lastalarmed about the fate of this rare animal inter­vened. A ban has been placed upon killing thisanimal, except by Indians, Eskimos and Mounties, until a count can be made to see how many wepossess. The beluga yields both meat and oil andis a source of food and fuel to Eskimos and In­ dians.What stirred Federal authorities to action wasthe habit of sportsmen going out in small boatsfrom Churchill, ■ shooting tic friendly and unsus­pecting beluga, harpooning it, dragging it asoherpecting beluga, harpooning it, dragging it ashoreand then leaving it to rot on the beach. The ani­mal has no value to the well-heeled sportsman.He just kills it "for fun.” Hudson Bay used to be so remote from civilization that the sportsmancould do it no harm.' The plane has changed thepicture, and the high powered rifle has altered balance between hunter and wild life. Unlesssome drastic steps are taken by Government, Can­ada will in time lose its wild life population. What is a modern sportsman? If he is simplya man who kills for the fun of it, he is actually ananti-conservationist. Apart from the weasel there is no wild animal which kills just for fun.

We'd like to have White-Collar Farming From Vancouver comes the amazing reportthat farming is becoming a white-collar job. The news comes from the convention of the Agricul­tural Institute of Canada, and is based on thework of agricultural scientists who are trans­ forming the industry through mechanization andother advanced processes.We are familiar with the advance of mechan­ization on the prairies, and have heard of huge farms being run on factory lines by a few menand many machines. But these are largely onecrop farms.There are also stories from the Middle Westof the United States of highly mechanized farmswhich handle livestock as well as varied crops. The tendency in this direction can be noticed herebut it still has a long way to go before the farmercan really be called a white-collar worker. Physi­cal exertion still plays an Important part in the life of most of our farmers, and they would re­gard white collar farming as revolutionary.However it is not impossible that some revolu­tion of thi* sort may be in the cards, and that,when it comes, it will solve many of the currentfarm problems. No doubt it will also create others for it would involve population changes as wellas the complete renovation of a whole ,way of life. —London Free Preu adian Poetry advance* some plausible faced by the Canadian who wants toreason* for Canada’s literary time-learn a living by hl* pen.

E. J. Pratt, greater than any of these, has bnly comparatively re­cently come into his own. His concernwith people as well as nature givesuniversality and he is highly'thoughtof both here and abroad. ThomasHaliburton and Stephen Leacock havesecure places on this continent and inEngland as humorists. Morley Cal­laghan is probably ‘better known in the States as a short-story writerthan he is at home. Recent novels byHugh MacLennan, Gabriel Roy and Gwethalyn Graham have had an en­couraging success.But to name over these few only seems to emphasize the paucity ofthe output as a whole and there isalways the secondary argument aboutwhether Canada can justly claim someof its writers as its own. Leacock and Fredrick Phillip Grove, for, instance,were not born in this country; there­fore, their status as Canadians is questioned. Charles G. D. Roberts didmuch of his writing in New York andEngland; is that work Canadian? It has become something of a joke to saythat the greatest “Canadian” novelMaria Chapdelaine was written by a Frenchman, Louis Hemon. To cir­cumvent all this, it is generally agreedthat the writer whose formative and most productive years were spent inCanada is a Canadian writer and thatwriting by anyone who meets thosequalifications and dealing with thenative scene and problems is Canad­ian writing.

A visit of the governor general,I.urd Dufferin, to Ingersoll in Aug­ust, 1874, is described In a book, “Can­ada Under the Administration of theEarl of Dufferin,” By George Stewart, in 1878. The account follows;“After a drive through the neigh­borhood, the carriages entered the grove of the Hon. G. Alexander, wherethe Warden and members of theCounty Council of the County of Ox­ ford read an address. Luncheon wasthen spread under two large marq­uees, and after full justice had beendone the viands, a fresh start wasmade and the Town of Ingersollappeared in view shortly before fouro’clock. As the train neared Beech- ville, h salute of signals shriekedthrough the. air. The preparations atIngersoll for the reception of the Vic­ eroy were of an exceedingly lavishdescription. A guard of honor fromthe 22nd Battalion V.M., and a large force from the fire brigade, and anenormous concourse of people, as­sembled to receive the visitors. Thearches, quite large in number, wereof very tasteful character, and onein particular attracted much attention. It consisted of cheese boxes, orna­mented with cut cheese, cut hams,flowers etc. A motto, running aroundin a semi-circle, displayed the legend, “Cheese, the making of Ingersoll.”Another arch was made up of piecesof furniture, while a third was adorn­ed with reaping machines, the manu­facture of a private firm in town. Flags and immense streamers ofbunting were exhibited in everystreet, and other marks of Welcome were to be seen in all quarters. Anumber of children were gathered atthe Central School grounds, and when Their Excellencies arrived on thisspot, the pupils rose, en masse, andsang a few verses of the NationalAnthem. At the conclusion of this,there was great cheering, and whenMr. E. H. McSorley, the Mayor, readan address, Lord Dyfferin's reply, which was humorous and timely, thusbriefly referred to one branch ofIngersoll’s industry:“I am well aware that the cheesefactories in Ingersoll possess a world­ wide reputation, and that sometimeseven our neighbours, when they wantto sell their cheese to the best advan­ tage, find it to their interest to lettheir customers understand that theyare of the Ingersoll quality.” The cheese factory was visited, andsome of its products were sampled.One large cheese, upon being cut into, was found to contain numerous bot­tles of champagne. The corner stoneof a new school-house was laid by His Excellency, when the train was re­entered, and shortly before 7 o’clockthe cars glided into London station.” Prepare BookOn Andy Clarke A book a large number of our read­ers will no »'-.ubt want t<. buy will b'ready by Fall.

And until recently itstill produced some of the best in Canadian cheese, and was stillowned by the Facey family thatbuilt the factory more than three-quarters of a century ago. Three generations of Faceys op­erated the cheese factory until it was sold a few years ago by Eugeneracey to the Borden Company, who now operate it as a milk receivingstation. Originally the factory consistedof two buildings, both three-storey structures. The one housed theactual factory, with an engine-roomand lean-to on the south side, whichwas used as a house, and an equallylarge building for storing and agingthe cheese.The first settlers arrived in the HarrietsviHe area during the 1830’s,but it was not until 1847, whenCaptain McMillan, a native of Ire­land, arrived that the community was named. Captain McMillan whowas the first postmaster, named thevillage after his wife, Harriet. HarrietsviHe in the 1860’s wasknown as the military centre ofNorth Dorchester. In 1863 McMillan formed the HarrietsviHe Militia Co.No. 2 of the Seventh Regiment ofMiddlesex which he commandedduring the Fenian scare. And as a result of his work the Governmenterected a drill shed and an armour­ies on Lot 12, Concession 2.McMillan was later chief magis­ trate of the hamlet.Among the early settlers of thearea were the Jelly?, and water is still drawn from the well on thesouthwest corner of the intersectionwhich once served an hotel operated there by J.

Hard-*-* Cheque Frauds Said Increasing If you try to cash' a cheque at abank or retail store, where your not well known, don’t .get sore if the ban­ker or storekeeper asks for identi­fication, perhaps refuses to accept the cheque, writes D. G. Maclean in theFinancial Post. So many cheque frauds are being attempted just now, prudent peoplewon’t take a chance. Retail merchants are specially named as victims. Forged payee signatures and raisedfigures are the most common formof cheque frauds, but they also in­clude forged cheques drawn on acc­ounts of well-known firms and cheques against non-existent or inadequateaccounts. Government cheques, however,fseem to be the class of cheque most favoredby these crooks. One factor lies in themillions of cheques issued for familyallowances, war service pensions, re­ turn of compulsory savings, and in­come tax refunds. The last namedfigure is* especially prominent in che­que frauds, at present.

There wasn’t aay' screaming, just moaning, _and youcould understand that. Everybodykept their heads marvellously, eventhe children. “Everybody went after their own. Jerry Richardsongot his wife and little girl, I think AlHorton got to Bobby Coles. He’s only seven, and he was unconcious. Hisleg is broken. (“His arm, too, mum­my,” put in Mrs. Wilson’s seven-year, old daughter Launi.)“Jock Carroll got Joy Brown out,and while I was towing Mr*. Myles to one of the boats I saw young Dor-a lifeguard cushion over to her.een Uren was having trouble. I pushedIt was a frantic few minute*. Luckysome other boats had only been abouta hundred yards away and were therefast. "Finally there didn’t seem to be anybody left in the water, and wechecked over and decided everybodywas taken care of. But then after the boats had started for GravenhurstSanitarium, somebody said RogerColes w as missing. He wasn t but we had a bad time till we found out forsure. Then they took all but four ofus to Bracebridge hospital, and there was nothing more to do—except bethankful it was no worse. It was reallya miracle nobody drowned because there were a lot of non-swimmers in the boat.“I didn’t even know that I wan hurttill the others had gone to hospital.Then I stood up and there was aCuddle of blood under my foot. The ig toe on my left foot had beenII crushed'by something.I “Its almost a nightmare. I was the - only one in the cabin, and for a minuteI didn’t think I would ever get out.It was a closed cabin, but the doors £ were open. There is an exhaust fan,| but I hadn’t turned it on because II didh’t think it was necessary. If I had turned it on, possibly the thingmight never have happened. I don’tknow. It’s not an ordinary procedure to turn it on. In fact most boats aren’tequipped with it. but Harold’s father,(E. A. Wilson) had it put on because of the explosion of his boat four yearsago when he was seriously injured. W»i Running Perfectly The Sarah Maude had been runningwell. We had come down in her fromour cottage to Gravenhurst, about 16miles, Saturday morning. But some-" how gas got into the bilge—it would only take a little—and vaporized.Then when I started the engine it blew.”Harold said they were planning togive Miss Canada IV a 50-mile trialthat afternoon. They were laying outa course, doing only about five milesan hour, when the explosion occurred, he said, adding:“I just saw a flash and then thepieces fly. All I thought of was to get there as fast as I could. We were onlyhalf a mile away and we were therein 20 seconds.“I was in the water before Lornagot out of the boat The roof camedown on her, and she had quite atime getting out. If she hadn’t ducked....“I helped her with one woman, and then pulled out two or three more/1don’t know who they were, CharlieVolker, my mechanic, jumped in whenI did and he helped. So did all theothers who could swim. It was a goodthing there were things for thosewho couldn’t swim to cling to—life belts, and cushions and wreckage. Allthe same it was miraculous that wewere able to get them all out. The boat just went to pieces.“There must have been some leak,just like you might have in your car. But in a car if gasoline leaks it canrun away. In a boat there’s no placefor it to go. The boat was in perfect shape. I checked her over myself twodays ago. Found Pay Envelope “Just to make sure nobody wastrapped, I went under water to getinto the cabin. There wasn’t anyone, but I got out a club bag full of clothesbelonging to the Rolls-Royce man.Good thing I did, too, because he had nothing to go back to Montreal in buta pair of shorts much more disrepu­table than mine. And floating aroundin the cabin I found my week’s paystill in the envelope. I figured I mightas well have it as anybody else.“There was lots of shouting and yelling, but no panic. The childrenwere wonderful. And there wasn’t as much yelling as you’d have expected.

J. Wardof Weston. In it was Dr. C. E. Lin- dcnfield, resident sungeon of Mus-koka hospital, who gave first aid onthe spot .after saving four woman and three children.“I remember those Coles child­ren”, the doctor added. “Poor Bobby sat in the boat, mumbling about hisarm being sore. But it was his legthat was broken, not his arm. We didn’t know that until he reachedthe hospital. There we also foundthat Roger had a fractured leg. He was good stuff. In the boat hewhimpered for a moment, but hedidn't cry. And remember, he’s onlythree.
