Says Boat Owner TEAR ENGINES APART SEEK MYSTERY “BUG” Nurse Slow, Grab Stretcher^ Carry Pal In Themselves Frank Bisbee, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Bisbee, Thames St S., is“comini? along fine”, following hishis accident last week when he 'ffove off a bridge into a pool some mileseast of London. To “clear up confusion” surround­ing the accident, Mrs. Bisbee ex­plained the whole story to the Tri­bune. Frank, she said, was with Marguerite Moulton and Ruth Har­ris. It was about 9 o’clock at night.Frank, a good diver, asked people in the neighborhood if the water inthat particular section of the NorthBranch of the Thambs was deepenough to dive into. They said yes.Other youngsters were jumping inat the time. “So he dove in,” said Mrs. Bisbee,‘but it was when coming up he hurthimself. He hit an abutment on the bridge. Although covered withblood, he swam almost to shorehimself. Then the two girls- to­ gether with Lloyd Abel, of London,got him out of the water. With an­other man, they aided him 25 feet up the hill." iMrs. Bisbee said the girls andAbel tied up his head with towels and rushed him to Victoria hospital,where x-rays were taken and slightfracture shown around the nose. His head and facial wounds requiredeight stitches and his lips were alsobadly hurt. He spent a week in hos­ pital h-t it now doing okay. Mrs. Bisbee said the two girls andAbel hurried Frank to the hospital. They went first to the front door,and were told to take him to theside door. Of course-at this time they didn’t know whether Frank wasbadly or slightly injured. When theygot to the side door, said Mrs. Bis­ bee. the nurse saicr she’d see what could be done."She was gone so long,” com­plained Mrs. Bisbee, “that by the time she got back the girls and Abelhad gone in and got a stretcher themselves, loaded Frank on it andheaded into the hospital. "It is better to go out there and take your licking than slinkback home,” said E. A. Wilson, of Ingersoll, just before Harold Wil­son, with Walter Harvey, his mechanic, went out in Miss Canada IV at Detroit to take his second successive licking in his Hannsworthtrohpy challenge. Mr. Wilson is seen here telling Don Fairbairn, ofNeighborly News, who covered the races, that before the summer is out the world would see what Miss Canada IV rgally could do. In theother picture, the boat is seen back at Gravephurst after both Rolls Royce Griffon engines had been sent to Montreal, for a thoroughgoing-over to see why the boat could get only a fraction of its power. Council, Tuesday: Okayed a request of the Oddfel­lows and Rebekahs to hold a penciltag day in aid of their cancer, polio,T.B. Fund, Saturday, Sept. 17.On motion of Councillors Morri­ son and Healy, put $20,000 at thedisposal of the public school board.Granted Fire Chief Dick Ellis permission to go to the firemen'sconvention Aug. 29-Sept. 3, inclu­sive.Accepted Gordon McArdle’s bidto repair the roof and leaks in the town hall for $78.

Also that they may havebetter luck next time.” Ingersoll Brothers Together Again After 40 Years Every Thursday afternoon. BillFrizell, comes beetling into The Tribune to buy art extra copy of thepaper.“Got to send it to my brother,Peter, out in Vancouver,” he ex­ plains. “He left here many yearsago, and he gets a great kick out ofreading the 48-years ago column,and reading about his old mates.”This week Bill came beetling inagain—but this time with the brother himself.“Yes,” said Peter, “I left herearound about 1903, and haven’t been here since. Why I hadn’t seenBill since 1908.”The Vancouver Mr. Frizell was about 18 when he left the employof the Evans Piano factory to seekhis fortune elsewhere. He’s been a finisher ever since, but has also mar­ried, had four children and seenthem have nine .more children, Peter was born here. He was quite ahockey player, too.“Boy”, he mused, "how the town has changed. Why, some of the oldpaths I used to run are now cementpavement.” He'll be here a week. NOTE To Advertisers! Three hundred and seventy-five copies of The Tribune were sold onthe newstands last week. Six months ago the average was 50. With netpaid circulation now almost 2000,more and more people are buying The Tribune each week, and thusmore and more people are seeing your advertisements. No other news­paper in this area can claim such a rapid rise in circulation in the lastsix months. Aboutown Sports If Miss Canada IV and her crewhad won the Harmsworth race over the week-end, they would have beenacclaimed "Heroes”, but becausethey lost, if I might say it, by someof us, they have been considered anything but Hours of sweat, toiland tribulation seemed In vain, whenthe “Challenger” did not perforih anywhere near her best Didn’t yon feel when they an­nounced she was running as a “Sporting Gesture”, that you hadlost something personal from therace? I did. I really felt my neck too, when those boos were releasedagainst Miss Canada IV. I think thepersons responsible should have had more consideration for the crew—two Ingersoll boys who had doneeverything within their power tobring honour and glory to Ingersoll as well as Canada herself. T Won’t you all join me in a greatbig "thank you”, to the Kiwanis Club of Ingersoll, for providing us witha “Bird’s Eye View” of the race—the fastest in the history of motor­boating—and a “Best of Luck” cheer to Miss Canada IV, her crewand her owner in their forthcoming events. While on the topic of boat rac­ing brings to light another Ingersoll lad who has a keen interest in out­board racing. The person beingRalph Brady, manager of BradyWood Products. I understand Ralph has built a short boat and powers itwith a 32 h.p. outboard motor, whichby the way, is plenty powerful. Ralph is entering in a Regatta in/London in the near future and I willendeavour to have more for you in the next edition, if I am not out-acooped by the “Daily Opposition.” Leaving boat racing we turn over to softball where things are a littleupset. The situation as I heard ofit, for the benefit of those who missed it and for your comment, isas follows:The play—The Gypsum catcher returned ball to pitcher. Jordan onthird base stole home and was calledout on the play at home by umpireEarl Thornton. The score was tied2-2; two men out, the game was in the seventh inning.Umpire Thornton’s version—The out decision was accepted by Jordanuntil he returned to the bench; hethen returned to plate and approach­ ed. umpire using abusive langimgeand offered to settle dispute after the game- Later in game, during overtime play, Jordan left the bench again and disagreed with Thornton’sdecision, and was suspended indefin­itely from the league at that time by Thornton. Earl reports that he con­tacted members of the executiveabout his decision and not receiving their co-operation he has, a far ashe is concerned, resigned. Dickson’s version— 1. Umpire Thornton did .....have power to suspend Jordafi in­definitely without the sanction of the executive Much they feel afterinvestigation, he did not have. 2. Dickson’s did not receive le­gal notice of Jordan’s indefinite sus­pension. 3. Jordan, or his team, should be represented at a meeting about thesuspension. 4. Dickson’s used Jordan, Friday, July 29, 1949, against Thamesford,because they had no definite sus­pension outside of hearsay from the "resident. 5. Dickson’s ask proper quar­ters in presenting their case before proper authorities in defence of Jordan.6. Is it not true that at the annual league banquet last fall, itwas decided to appoint a board ofdecision, a committee not connected with the sport, but with a goodknowledge of the game, to give anunbiased opinion on such cases as this if they arose, and a committeewas appointed.7. Has president Thornton pow­ er of Happy Chandler, (baseballcommissioner), or are disputes suchus these to bo handled by the execu­tive and board of decision? I am certainly not taking any sidein this affait but would like to see itsettled to keep the league on aneven keel. These facta have beencompiled for your information andthe executive may by the time thisgoes to press, have this settled, but this information should enlightenyou to what originally happened. not In The Garden By A.

Oxford Council The regular meeting of the NorthOxford Council was held August 1. A communication was receivedfrom J. J. McLeod, secretary-treas­urer Ingersoll Board of Education, enclosing copy of report of thebuilding committee of the proposedHigh School, which was as follows: “That this board fully 'realizes theemergency existing in trying to pro­vide accommodation in/our Colleg­ iate Institute for the students ofthis district and are fully aware of the urgent necessity of erecting anew Collegiate Institute:“Be it therefore resolved that we respectfully request the coun­cils in the Ingersoll Collegiate Dis-rict to arrange for a vote of the ratepayers on this question, on thedate set for their next municipalelections. This request was tabled. Arthur Richardson, North Ox­ford’s representative on the Highochool Board, was present and ex­plained matters pertaining to theproposed building of a new HighSchool. A coinmunication from the C.N.R.stated that repairs to the crossing on Munro’s side road would bemade as soon as possible.During the past week, the Depart­ ment of Lands and Forests hasplaced a number of pheasant inNorth Oxford Township.A by-law. establishing the rates oftaxation for the year 1949 was ad­ opted.

FLASHI Dickson's are planning a SoftballTournament, Saturday, August 13,1949, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon, and from 1 p.m. until finished, at Dick­son’s school ground. This tourna­ment is organized to raise funds for the betterment of sports at Dick­son’s Corners. The teams enteredare: Frigidaires, Stone’s, Thames­ ford, Embro, South Middlesex, AUStars and Dickson's, Didn’t Want Case Town Is Billed As Charge Fails The town of Ingersoll was nearly scared to death a couple of months ago, and now finds itself in the unique position of having to pay out $35 for the dubious pleasure.It all arises from the time when an 80-mile-an-hour passenger trainhit a truck carrying a 31-ton trans­former across the Thames St. C.N.R.crossing. The truck had stalled, andthe train sliced the vehicle in half,leaving the transformer sitting inthe crossing. The transport company was char­ged with not having permission to carry such a heavy load.“Corp. Jack Callander didn't want to lay a charge,” Town Clerk R. E.Winlaw explained to council,” butQueen's Park ordered him to goahead.”He did, and the company wasfined $25 and costs.But the company appealed—suc­cessfully. Tuesday, Crown Attorney CraigMcKay sent in his bill to the townin connection with the appeal—$35. It caused almost as big a concussionas the original collision. “Someone else gets us tangled inthese things,” said Councillor TomMorrison, “and then we .pay shot?’ « the Today Rolls Royce mechanics and engineers at Montrealare testing two Griffon engines to find out why Miss Canada IV, Canada’s first Harmsworth contender, Jailed so miserably at Detroit last week-end.Immediately the sleek boat came out of the water Satur­day at the conclusion of the second] heat of the speedboat classic, after again finishing a smooth but definite last, planswere made to go over both the famed engines with a fine tooth comb to find just why when Harold Wilson, the driver, step­ped on the throttle, the engine gave only a fraction of its power. Everyone was mystified^ and it is felt that only athorough going over will determine the cause. Waited No Time The boat, which excited thousands lined along the rivei*,with its smooth performance, was back in Ingersoll Monday morning, and en route to Gravenhurst that afternoon. GordonPaterson drove the tractor trailer with the boat and Ross Few- ster took up the other engine on another truck.E. A. Wilson, owner, was confident that before the sum­ mer is out, Miss Canada IV will be doing the things and speedsexpected of her. It is hoped, for instance, to take a crack at the world speed record of 141 miles an hour held by an Eng­lish boat. Also, the Silver Cup race at Detroit at the end of this month, and the President’s Cup race at Washington later, willgive Miss Canada IV, Harold and his mechanics, Charlie Vol­ ker and Walter Harvey, an opportunity to wipe off the smilesof the U.S. boats that left him so far behind at Detroit. Inci­ dentally, it should be mentioned that with] Miss Canada III,Harold has beaten all the boats that were at Detroit, and not one U.S. boat can approach his record. It should also be poin­ted out that every U.S. boat in the Harmsworth broke downat one time or another during' the race. Can’t Find Answer No answer to Miss Canada’s failure is expected untilafter the Montreal investigation. All they know is that they could only get about 2000 rpm. from the engine that shouldgive 2800-2900, and has to give 2300 or more before the sup­ercharger starts doing its real work, and gives the boat the power to do close to the 150-mile-an-hdur mark.During the first lap Friday, as Miss Canada IV idled around, Jim Hall, the Rolls Royce expert, said: “If it’s theengine gone wrong, I’m going to dive in and stay down.” He didn’t do that, but that night with, a crew of others, includingWalter Harvey, Volker, Jack Osborne and other Rolls Royce men, they went over everything and couldn’t find out whythe engine wasn’t giving what it should.Labored A l Night All the day of the second heat, too, they labored over the engine, but could find nothing out of place. Still the boatwouldn’t run faster than about 85. Right up until starting time Wilson wasn’t decided whether he woud go out for thesecond heat, knowing he couldn’t get anywhere anyway, and that he’d just be taking a hiding. But, as E. A. Wilson said,“we’d rather take our licking than slink away,” so Harold and Walter went out and completed the race, getting boosfrom a few and terrific applause from many, for what Gar Wood called “real sportsmanship.”Naturally, it was a pretty disappointed group of Inger- soll-and-area boosters that returned Saturday night, or earlySunday. But the Kiwanis Harmsworth excursion, organized to give 500 people a chance to go to the race, was a big success.Shortly after noon Saturday, nine buses pulled away from thebus station and they had a police escort right to their special bleachers at Detroit. They got a big hand from everyone, andapparently Detroit and boating officials had spared no effortin seeing that they got the best of attention. Talks To Friend In London, Eng. It took Alon Havard of Ingersoll,*a month to place the call, but it cer­ tainly was worth it, he says.Alan came out to Canada fromEngland some months ago, to seek his fortune, but left his girlfriendbehind. He decided a telephone call on her birthday would be quite apresent, so he placed the call a month ago.Tuesday was his friend’s birthday.Her name is Jo Trigg, and she livesin London, and once the telephoneoperators got clicking, Alan wasover in England in about the same time as it takes for a Tillsonbung call.“It’s an amazing feeling, he said, "talking over such a distance. Wetalked five minutes and the recept­ion was grand, but,” he added, "I never knew $20 could go so quickly.

The Ingersoll Tribune - Phone 13. Traffic was held up at the ThamesSt C.N.R. crossing nearly ~’~ utes last Saturday, andhangs a tale. Three “bums” caused it It seems that as a passenger trainsped toward Toronto, someone atDorchester noticed these three tran­ sients travelling for free. A mess­age was sent ahead to Ingersoll; thetrail) was halted, and the search led by Constable Dennis J. Alsop andtrain officials began. They couldn’t find anyone. The tigin started up again, and was on its way, when suddenly thetrio were spotted—hanging on theoutside of the accordion-like pass­ age between two coaches. “They were standing on a tinyplatform,” said the constable, "andone wrong step and they’d have been under the wheels. The trainmen toldme sometimes the train hits 80 milesan hour. Jt’s the first time anyone was caught riding there.” The three got down and made noeffort to escape—although possibly they could have. Constable Alsopbagged all three—handcuffing two,and taking the other by the arm. One was 22, another 29, the third,33. All were from the Maritimes. Theyrancy.

When we heard that all the tickets for the race had been sold out we*felt pretty good about the support Ingersollwas giving to Harold Wilson. And when we saw the filledbleachers on the river we felt even better. “The announcement that it was all over before the race began hit us below the belt too. But we did not sit there andactually get so low as to boo him as his boat came past. Most of the people took it and realized that it was because therewas nothing else that could be done but somewhere there were a few and it’s them we are disgusted with.We also listened with a faint feeling of nausea to a bright gent who expounded to us his theory that Harold was scaredto open up the boat Of that we need make no comment. If people, such as those—and we emphasize that they were only a fraction of the folk who made the journey—can’t take itbetter than that, the best place for them is front of their radio where no one can can hear them. No one wants to anyway." Around The Town Ingersoll’s police are really an obliging lot and will do almost any­thing for one, but they had to drawthe line the other day. Someone called in to say they had a skunk—dead—in their place and would thepolice kindly remove it. The depart­ ment declined.

WHO OWNS TRIKE? IS POLICE OUERY A little red tricycle is still atIngersoll’s police station, awaitingits owner. The trike was stolen at Wilson (Memorial Pool, and policerecovered it when a little girl wasapprehended. The police wish theI owner would claim it As though Harold Wilson didn'thave enough grief on his hands atDetroit over the week-end, while hewas racing someone rifled his goodtrousers, taking his money and car keys—and pants. Cecil Vyse and Frank Leake arebusy on an order for 24 hana-car-ved grandfather-dock cases—their biggest order in that line ever. Oxford County, pursuing its re- forestation .policy, has purchased about 135 acres in North. Oxford,near Banner, according to L. K.Coles, county clerk. The property— good farmland, except that it hasno entrance apart from crossing theriver, or going through someone else's place, will be immediately putin trees. The county now has similarareas in nearly all townships. Mrs. George Godden, Ann St,really was lucky last week. Not only did she win $60 on LH.F calls,but wrote out the ticket for Mrs.Charles Buchanan, who was in hos­pital, and it won another $45. Last week, when Vera Cable won the $25prize, it was said to be her fourthwin. BRICKS, SOOT FLY AS LIGHTNING HITS Burton Harris had lust nicely hadhis kitchen redecorated when the lightning struck.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 4, 1949 THE INGERSOIX TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, AUGUST 4,1949it tlw date line, “CMr. Holiday Week When President Truman was reelected after a ternSc fight last November, The Toronto Star ran a det.xhtful editorial- cartoon showing “Two-Gun” Truman h,kii< toward the White House with a bunch of Dewey ducks hanging over the muzzle of his gun. It was bo good, we asked Les Callan, the cartoonist, for it, and sent it to the President, with the hope he would personally autograph it A secretary replied that the president had been deluged with similiar requests, but they would try to arrange it. This week the cartoon came back, together with a letter from the president's office apoiognzing for the delay and saying the President sent his best. On the cartoon, in his own hand, was “Many thanks and beat wishes, Harry S.

The Cone Pays Tax When a child is eating his ice cream cone hemay not realize it, but he is the centre of an offi­ cial conflict. In Ottawa there is a departmentwhich says he is eating a nourishing food. In thesame Capital, less than a stone’s throw away, there is another department which says he is eat­ing a luxury, and that for this extravagance, he must sacrifice one-eighth of his precious cone fortaxes.The National Dairy Council wants to see the child have all his cone. As a means of promotingthe consumption of dairy products, it wants tosee more ice cream eaten. One -suggestion putbefore its executive committee was that the Fed­ eral 8 per cent sales tax be removed from it.Then the saving could be passed along to the con­ sumer, either in larger scoops or in reducedprices, In either case the council feels that themarket would be increased. The National Health Department has recognizedice cream as a nutritious food. Therefore thecouncil says, it should be on an equal footing with most other foods which are exempt from the salestax.Why not? Whys should ice cream pay a sales tax, any more than butter, which does not? Whyshould any nutritious food pay a sales tax? Butwhy urge the exemption of ice cream and leavethe sales tax on margarine? Officialdom draws itsown lines on these matters. The ice cream cone is just another victim of arbitrary rulings, whichmake no sense. But they do gouge deeply intothe pocketbook, even into the kids’ nickles for cones—Globe and Mail. Masts rpisees of various sorts have , lain in hiding for generations. Un- ,recognised as such by their owners, jthey have been sold, given away, or ,loft derelict In basement or attic, , until some lucky chance has broughtthem to light and the acknowledge­ ment of someone artistically alert.Not all the works of even a great ,artist have received recognition in his day. He may have thought themequal to his best, but for some reason they lacked appeal and re­mained unsold. Sometimes he mayhave felt they were unworthy of him, failed in inspiration or craftsman­ship, and so were put by and for­gotten . . Some of his work, if he were a prolific artist and unknown,would at his death lie neglected asworhtless. Some of the world’s greatest manuscripts and paintingshave turned up in the oddest places. Many others must have been lost tous, destroyed by mildew or fire, or by unwitting human agency.Genius has so often hidden under the guise of the mendicant. Povertyhas too often accompanied the aspiring genius and sometimes help­ ed to make his an expiring one long before his time. Schubert left behindhim, after a few short years of work, frustration and starvation, hundreds of imperishable songs. Rescued by friends they have been preserved forthe generation destined to recognise his inspiration and faultless work­ manship. ,The trouble is that too often it isimpossible to recognise genius of thesort that produces such art. We are too near to hear and see it as later-comers to the scene may. _ Geniusquite often works ahear of its time, so that it takes a generation or twofor ordinary mortals to catch up with it. Perha** therefore; as themoulders oi taste, it is sometimes necessary for them to live and dieunsung by their contemporaries.Bearing that in mind, while failingutterly to understand and appreci­ ate much modernistic art (and that, I admit, is arran^ understatement),I try to keep an open mind. IfWagner in his Ay could, by some of his critics, be called a charlatan andworse, and later be adored as a bril­ liant precursor of a modern trend,it little behooves a mere amateur tocondemn unconditionally the noiseand discord and general pandemon- lim that passes for music in theModern manner. Probably anothergeneration’s ears will be so attuned to its discordance that they willrecognize it as sweetest concord,and the patches and splashes of raw colour, the general disregard for thethe old rules of draughtsmanship, awd the mad antics of lunatic linesand angles of surrealist art, may atsome future date appear to the eyeof that day as sweet reasonableness.But it is beyond my limited imagin­ation to believe that some day some-1 one will come across such a manu­script, or such a picture, and pro­claim to an eager world the finding of a magnumopus. I could muchmore readily think that it would, gasp with surprise that anything so crude or so weird could ever have. been accepted as mature art. Bu there it is. Times change and . we with time, and who am I to saythat the daub I stand and puzzle i over with vexed irritation, isn t one> day to assume a place of honour inJ the world’s esteem, or the music. that rattles my senses and tautensi my nerves won’t then be listened to, with the rap attention and delight i 1 can give to the works of an earner► generation of artists?______________ BEACHVILLE At the lagersoil Library at the f present time, patrons have the op- Jportunity i of seeing a collection of 1CanadiarT painting brought together <by an Ingersoll resident. Thia col- i lection was begun only three years |ago but already contains revere! ipaintings by artists who have won ispecial place in the history of Can- , adian art. A very fine example is the largeoil by J. W. Beatty who died in 1941 and who, as a teacher andpainter, considerably influencedCanadian painting. This is calledCanoe Lake, Algonquin Park, and is lonely in mood, with grey tree­stumps on the edge of a blue lake whose background is the dark forertb In this collection also is a rareitem— a sketch by Canada's famous Tom Thomson who in his five yearsof painting accomplished so muchand whose story has been told inbooks and film. This sketch is of Seal Rock, Georgian Bay. Most striking is the* large canvasby Arthur Heming, “In Canada's Fairyland." This is the original ofthe painting illustrated in tne r>ookt' Canadian landscape Painters*', by Aioeix Kobson. it is a picture ofwoods in winter with snow wreathed evergreens and a uter leaping through a clearing. Mr. Heming, as wed as being a painter, wrote book*about the wild life of the north, which are very popular. Two of these are “Drama of the Forest", and “Spirit I<ake." At the library there is also by him, a small sketch of water fowl, and a large unfinish­ed canvas of a bear ar.d a Rocky Mountain goat eyeing each other across a mountain chasm. Maurice Cullen is another greatname in Canadian painting. He isrepresented here by a scene in a Newfoundland harbour. His great­est work is said to be his portrayal of snow, but at the time he waspainting, the Canadian public dis­approved of anyone calling attention to our winters, and his work wasneglected at home, though highly regarded abroad. The French Gov­ernment purchased one of his can­ vases. Gordon Payne, who is well knownto Ingersoll, is represented by asketch of boats at Gloucester, whichis typical of the subjects of hi* most popular pictures. Otner paint­ ings include two by George Broom­field and Isabel Broomfield, as well as paintings by G. Paginton. a sceneon the He d’Orleans, and by W. Coucill, an autumn scene at Con­estoga. X&ays were discovered by the German physicist, William Rontgen, in 1895. What a Heartbreaker It Must Have Been For a moment, we thought of running a black border around this editorial, but decided it would be too frivolous for the real gloom and disappoint­ ment of the occasion. The first attempt to put Canada—and Ingersoll —on the speedboat pedestal of the world ,has ended in heartbreaking failure. It is not so much Canada was beaten in a fair race, but that she didn’t even get a chance to show her real wares., Many, many thousands just quietly died when Miss Canada IV, beauty of them all, started up with a bang, then refused to more than crawl. Thousands and thousands were terribly disappoin­ ted, and asked themselves what could have hap­ pened. But think how heartsick Harold Wilson and Walter Harvey must have been when they headed out to the starting line, reached for the tremendous power and speed that was their’s and got no reply. For days, weeks, months, it had been work, work, work, to get the boat ready. She was in the pink. But then, at the crucial moment, something went —something not yet determined. Such bad luck is enough to make one give up, but there will be no giving up with Miss Canada IV. She’s a world- beater, and she'll perform like one ere the season is out Criminal Children? Fifteen years ago John Dillinger, a criminaloutlaw with several murders to his credit, was shot and killed by police in Chicago. It was a per­iod of savage crime, and the American FederalBureau of Investigation came into prominence by the activities of its agents in tracking down along list of killers. Since that day we have had less crime of that kind but we have added a newand frightening type of criminal—the child whoturns out to be a sadist or a killer, without any other reason that he was moved in that directionby some childish inclination.“I deaded him,” said a boy of seven when police officers questioned him about the shootingof a neighborhood grocer. The child had shot theman with a .32 calibre revolver. He had found the gun in the grocer's drawer and was merelyseeing if it worked. But in later years we haveexperienced a tragic list of crimes by children. , Especially there have been crimes by juveniles" against young girls. Some of the victims were• children themselves. And this in addition to the adolescents with their gang wars and tribal war­fare.Criminal-insanity is a malaise of the human mind deserving greater attention than it" has sofar received. Possibly the psychiatrists will be able to help us—when there are more of them. In themeantime we are experiencing a post-war crimewave reaching down to the children. It is timewe looked more carefully into the homes, andhome life in North America. —London Free Press Detroit Deserves Praise For Its Hospitality Detroit and U.S. yachting officials deserve a big hand for their efforts in making everything as cosy as possible for members of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Hannsworth excursion. The nine buses were greeted at the Detroit end by Detroit police and led right to the specially-built bleachers on the river right across from Jfie starting line. No better view of the race could have been had any­ where. The visitors got a warm welcome from the thousands of others lined up along the river and were made to feel at home. Special conveniences were provided for the 500 and no request for assistance could have been too' great Under such conditions, it could have been a perfect after­ noon, but Dame Fortune would not let it be so. •—o—• Notes on the Editor's Pad.. A friend of ours was having a cellar put in un­ der an already-standing house. After all „the dig­ ging was done, and the firalls put in, then came the matter of pouring the floor. To carry the concrete round, the boys took three huge steel wheelbar­ rows downstairs with them, and work got under­ way. Halfway through, our friend casually en­ quired how did the men expect to get their wheel­ barrows out again,, and they smiled reassuringly and said everything would be okay. On they went —the windows were in, the floor poured and cement plastering on the inside walls completed —with our friend still wondering how ever would the wheelbarrows be able to get out from the cellar. The once-casual workmen got alarmed too, for, with the job done, they found they were in the same spot as the man who built a boat in his cellar, then found it was too big to get out. But the workmen weren’t phased long—the next thing our friend knew they had cut a trapdoor in her bedroom, and were wheeling the wheelbarrows through the living room, to the outside world! Ah, life can be so embarrassing. Last week, we were so confident Harold Wilson and his Miss Canada IV would sweep the Hannsworth at De­ troit, we decided it would be a good idea to get out a "Harmsworth Extra”, that could be rushed into the streets the moment word came through of a Candian victory. So we prepared this two- page extra. It was a beautiful thing too, with bags of pictures, and the word hot from Detroit. We • printed 1500 of them, and so we wouldn’t be caught short if he won Monday, and not Saturday, . Holidays and Week-Ends The suggestion that statutory holidays otherthan Christmas, New Year’s and Good Friday be celebrated on the nearest Monday, has been re­vived at Ottawa. How seriously the Government may be considering legislation to this end, we donot know. The proposal is not new, and would very likely win a measure of popular approval. It will be recalled that Mr. C. H. Cahan, Secre­ tary of State in the Bennett Government, attempt­ ed in 1932 to restore the celebration of Thanks­giving to the Thursday date it had had tradition­ally, before it was “amalgamated” with Remem­brance Day. The public objection was so vigorous that Thanksgiving has since had a Monday obser­vance. The appeal of the “long week-end" is verystrong. Labor Day and the Ontario Civic Holiday arealso Monday holidays, and that leaves only Do­ minion Day, Victoria Day and Remembrance Dayto be to be affected by the proposed change. Butwhatever advantages, week-end celebration of these dates might have, they have no significanceif they are not observed on July 1, May 24 andNovember 11, respectively. Unless we are io abandon any meaning in our holidays except theirrecreational value, it might be better to dropthese specific observances, organi.Ve a holiday on the first Monday of every month and let it go atthat.Even with celebration on the actual date, how­ ever, our interest in the meaning of the day hasalmost disappeared. The complete lack of patriotic enthusiasm Canadians showed on Dominion Daythis year was remarkable. Whole streets of housescarried not a flag. In London, the King and Queenattended a special religious service in Westmin­ster Abbey, but there were no announced religiousobservances in Toronto. For us, our NationalBirthday was a welcome day off work, offering op­portunity for an extra long “long week-end"—and nothing else. Even the rtidio, which likes achance to de something special, fell short of otheryears. It would be inconceivable, we should think,for Americans to start agitating that the Fourth of July or Lincoln’s Birthday be celebrated on thethe nearest Monday. To them, there is somethingalmost sacred about those dates. They might not, in every case, behave much differently fromCanadians,' ns the appalling death toll of theweek-end of the Fourth showed. But for any one to suggest that Independence Day itself had nosignificance beyond its value as a holiday wouldbe to risk life and limb.It may be foreign to our national temperament to get, over-emotional about our patriotism, but itis almost shameful not to show any at all. Cansolemn gratitude for the sacrifice of lives for free­ dom be expressed appropriately on any 'day butthat sdt apart at the time the sacrifice was made?Has anything any meaning any more?There is this to be said for Monday celebiation of national days, however, and that is it wouldremove any lingering trace of hypocrisy from theobservance. We believe we would lose real values if Dominion Day were just any day in the same■week. But if Dominion Day does not stir anyemotions but the urge to play, to give up the pre­tense of being proud to be Canadian would per- haps be more honest, For those of us who arenot so indifferent, the change would be a causeof sorrow.—Globe and Mail By Mrs. N.

She learned she had received the silver medal for highest marksin her grade for piano at the West­ ern Ontario Conservatory of Music. Dermott, of the local National Em­ployment service, informs The Tri­bune. “There is a very keen demand for help, both skilled and unskilled,with carpenters, rough or finish being the most sought after,” hesaid. “Cabinetmakers, woodworking machinists and woodworkers ofpractically every description, are also in demand. Approximately 56labourers are required immediatelyfor the various industrial concerns and construction projects. In addi­tion, farm workers are being askedfor, especially for harvesting oper­ ations, with a number of orders foryear-round help. For farmers seeking marriedcouples, Mr. McDermott advises that there are a number of D.P.married couples, some with children,available for immediate placement.

Thia trap is floated and an- .«< ll.-nt way of helping the fish and' chored in likely turtle territory. Thewaterfowl population of your neigh­ hood by thinning out one of theirmajor enemies. Ail big turtles feedregularly and voraciously on fish and make a meal of young duck wheneverthey get the chance. Authorities listthe snapping turtle and the long­ snouted rublurback (better known anthe flapjack turtle from its flatround shape and also called the soft- ihell snapper in some parts of itsrange) among the foremost foes offresh-water fish. Each one trapped means bass, perch, apnfish, bream andducks saved—for better fishing andhunting. Furthermore turtle trapping will pro­vide you with some very tasty meals.The snapper and the rubberneck arefirst-rate eating, and many a schoolboy earns his spending mcney by run­ ning a line of turtle traps in the sum­mer.Turtle traps are easy to make. Thecommonest type is a cylinder of chic­ken wire or heavy netting on a wireframe, with a funnel-shaped entrance at either end. Turtles enter the trapthrough these inward-pointed funnels,and are unable to find their way out again. Care must be taken to set andanchor such a trap with at least oneend a few inches above water, to en­able any turtles taken to come to thesurface and breathe. They will drownin a completely submerged trap. Another trype of trap consists ofa frame three or four feet square,made of four pieces of half-round log or pole mitered together at the cor- ftOP^TCHS Quick! Stop itchln* of iui»ct bite*, beat nub.

The traps should be set in medium­shallow water along the shore or edgeof weed beds, in places where turtlesprowl in search of food. Turtles arebom scavengers and the traps can bebaited successfully with almost any kind of meat. It need not be fresh.Old beef bones, dead fish, and chickenentrails are favorite baits. Dressing a turtle is simpler thanmany sportsmen believe. The crittersare best killed by beheading. They are tenacious of life, and even decap­itated they may continue to show mus­cular reaction in the legs and neck for hours.Get the turtle to snap at'and hangonto a small stick, if you can, and usethe stick to pull the head well out fromthe shell to insure a neat job of de­capitating.You will have left five meaty piecesof turtle: the legs and neck, still at­ tached solidly to the upper shell. Skinthem out, disjoint them, cut themaway close to the shell, and they areready for cooking. The legend that aturtle has seven kinds of meat is justlegend, incidentally- The flesh is lightin color, somewhat like fish or breastof fowl. A big snapping turtle mayweigh as much as 40 pounds before dressing, although that is well aboveaverage size, especially in Northernlakes and rivers. The soft-shell or rubberneck reaches a weight of closeto 30 pounds. And the overgrown,vicious alligator snapping turtle of the South often weighs more than 100.The most popular method of cookingfresh-water turtle is to soak the pieces in salt water for a few hours, parboiluntil tender, and finish in the fryingpan.. More modern turtle fanciers say, however, that a better flavor re­sults if the flesh is soaked in saltwater then frozen in a home freezer orlocker plant and fried. Freezing ten­derizes the meat and makes parboilingunnecessary. One final warning In tending yourturtle traps and in handling and kill­ ing the turtles, keep your hands clearof their powerful jaws. Both the rub-berback and the snapper bite like a steel trap. Both have very strong jawmuscles and knife-like jaws. A bigone can sever a finger or badly la­ cerate a hand, arm, or foot. Alwayshandle them by the tail and take nochances on getting a bad bite. —From “Outdoor Life."
