Something a little different in engi
neering in these parts was carried outby Sutherland Construction Co. on theThames project recently. Digging the
new channel, the water main to Stone’swas broken, and it was necessary toput a new main under the river! Firstone side of the river was dammed off,
the ditch dug and the pipe laidrthenthe same was done on the other side.Now both the Thames and Stone’s
water supply are running full andfancy free.

How stories start is clearly indicated by an incident last week. TheTribune was telephoned by the Toronto Star, who wanted to know all the
details of the polio case reported inIngersoll. This child, said the Star,had been rushed by special ambulance
to Toronto after being hit by thedread disease. We phoned the hospital.We phoned every doctor in town. Not
one had heard of any polio case in Ingersoll. We called the Star again, toreport no progress, only to learn thatthe case wasn’t in Ingersoll at all—
it was a child in Orillia, whose namewas Ingersoll.

Ingersoll, Langton
To Clash Tonight
Ingersoll Juveniles take on Langton here tonight, in thte hopes to even
the two-out-of-three series. C. Hamilton Gosse has been informed the
series must be over and a winner declared by Saturday.Ingersoll came out on the short-endof a 9—1 score in the first game atLangton, which was marked by lang
uage, blows and expulsions. The excitement began when umpire Walshbenched Orly, Hamilton, Ingersoll
pitcher, for yelling at the Langtonpitcher. Connor, benched too, tosseda pad down in disgust, and was es
corted from the park. Then CoachBoughner, of Langton, allegedlyslapped Ron Massey, in the batter’s
box, for no apparent reason, and thatended Boughner’s activities for sometime.

the very few in his whole 73 years.Tommy was celebrating his birthday in his usual manner — cutting
someone's lawn — when The Tribunefound him and took him down to theoffice. There a big birthday cake,
especially made by Zurbrigg’s for theoccasion, was “unveiled,” completewith candles blazing merrily. Tommy
declined to blow the candles out, saying he was going to need all he hadto do the jobs at hand, and please,could the party get going because hehad to get back and cut the grass.
So the cake was cut, and everybodytook a piece, and pang to a happyTommy, Happy Birthday To You.

Six Ingersoll Men .
Train At Pelawawa
Six Ingersoll members of the OxfordRifles have completed special coursesat Petawawa. They are Cadet OfficerCurrie Winlaw, Sergeants Pat Mahoney, Tommy Todd and Jack Brown,and Corporals Jim Turner and JimWestcott.Westcolt, Mahoney, Todd and Browntook the modified course on handlinga six-pound anti-tank gun. They were
in camp eight days, and at the end ofthe course the Ingersoll crew towedtheir gun into position, set it up. firedand knocked out a tank—all in 18seconds.
“We enjoyed it all immensely”Westcott said.
At Sarvice StationThe fight took place around 6
o’clock, Aug. 9, at a King St. W.service station. Anscombe took thestand, sporting a split lip, which, he
said, required a stitch; a very darkeye, and a well-marked forehead.From Verschoyle, he said he’d
known Johnson for about 15 yearsBoth were in the same business—spraying barns—and all was wellbetween them, he thought.I was talking to Bruce Zavitz
^hen Emerson drove up,” Mr. Ans-combe recounted. “He said come onover here for a minute. I went over
and the first thjjpg I knew he bad onearm around my neck, and w/is poun
ding my face with the other, and atthe same time dragging me into thecar. I hadn't said a thing. I tried to
back up and he grabbed me by thehair, so I hit him, then got away,got into the service station, then
went back for my cigar, and he hitme again and tore my shirt off.”“Had he been drinking?” asked
Mr. McKay.“I couldn’t say,” was the reply.“Apparently the background is
that you had taken a job from rightunder hi* nose, and he was a bit
peeved about it?’ suggested Mr. McKay. “I guess so.”Anscombe told Buchner he hadbeen there just long enough to drinka bottle of milk.• “What did you do when Mr.
Johnson wag hitting you?”“If a man-gets you around the
neck, there's not much you can do,”he said, as the court chuckled. “Hejerked me right through the car.”Defence counsel nited that Johnson wore glasses, and wasn’t reallya big man—not as big as complain
ant“He’s supposed to be the 'biggestman on our road." Anscotnbe re
torted, as the crowd roared.4-“And wasn’t Mr. Johnson having
trouble with hig pants?” I
“Yes, he had to hold them upwith one hand,” he smiled artaeverybody else laughed out loud.
“He wasn't doing much fightingafter that,'” suggested Mr. Buchner,
“when he had to hold his pants up.”
Provincial Constable Harold Chia-
lottztold of going to the scene. Anscombe was there but Johnson hadgone home. He went to his home,
accompanied by Constable N, R.Chamberlain.
“There was no evidence he'd been
in a fight,” said Constable Chislott.
Mr. Buchner asked for a dismissal, but the magistrate demurred .
Mr. Johnson who indeed didn’tlook as though he'd been in a fight,said when he pulled into the stationAnscombe came over, opened his cardoor, stuck his head in, and said,“what the h-— are you fellows doing
today?” Then he made a pass at me,knocked my glasses clean across the
car. I pulled him right through thecar, then let him go. He made an-nother pass at me and that’s when
the fight began. He hauled off atme. I fought again.“What ended it?”
"We just quit”"Were you hurt?”
“My ndie bled—and I lost two
teeth.”
He said he had a bit of troublewith his pants.
“My braces were broken, he said,as everyone chuckled,” and I had tohold them up with my hands."
"Is it true Mr. Anscombe hadSken a job away from you?” askedF?-NcKay.
“Yes, It would have meant about850.”Johnson said he and Anscombe

Ingersoll’s .one hundred and second
annual fair, expected to be bigger thanever, is being held August 29-30-31, atthe fairgrounds under the sponsorshipof the Ingersoll, North and West Ox
ford Agricultural Society. For the firsttime in some years, there will be evening performances, and Steel’s Cavalcade of Stars is expected to be terrific.
The fair, actually older than the townitself, celebrated its hundredth birthday in 1917, and a pylon at VictoriaPark notes its stature. The IngersollFair is one of the oldest and one ofthe best known in the history of thecountry. This year, with midway,rodeo and circus attractions, horse,
cattle, poultry and baby shows, andhundreds of various exhibits, the fairis expected to be one of the best overand thousands will attend.
The first Agricultural Society of thisdistrict was organized jin the summerof 1847 and the first fair was heldOctober 20. The Society then was
known as “The Ingersoll AgriculturalSociety”, but as time passed and moresettlers took up land near Ingersoll,the area served by the Society was
extended to include z the adjoiningtownships of North Oxford and WestOxford. Evidently, in the formativeyears of the Society, good co-operationexisted between urban and rural residents. The first president in 1847 wasa banker and the first secretarytreasurer was a farmer. In 1852 theSociety was put on a more definite
and permanent basis as required by anew Agricultural Act, the officers ofthat year being — President, JohnMathews, a merchant; Vice-president,
C. E. Chadwick, a banker; Secretary,John M. Chapman, a druggist; Treasurer, Daniel Phelan, a merchant;Directors, Adolphus Milne and JamesHenderson, businessmen, representing
the town and the following farmersrepresenting the rural sections: JacohChoate, W. B. Mabee, Copeland Stinson, Geo. Walker, James Bodwell and
Robert Cameron. This co-operationhas existed to the present time.For many years after the founding
of the Ingersoll Agricultural Society,the fairs were held on the north sideof the Thames river, at the westerlyside of the town, but for the last 70years they have been held in VictoriaPark, a park possessing natural beauty.
Exhibits and prize lists have changedin keeping with the agricultural development and specialization. Ourpioneers exhibited the good products
of their farms for the benefit of thecommunity. The prize list no longercontains a classification for the “BestYoke of Oxen”, but in its stead wefind the tractor, the combine, the pickup hay and straw baler, the com harvester and other machines that have
brought about mechanization of thefarm in modern agriculture.
The exhibits at a fair are principally the products of the communityadjacent to the fair. The various
breeds of live stock have usually beenwell represented, but the predominantexhibit has been the three major breeds
of dairy cattle, Holstein, Jersey andAyrshire. This has been a ^naturaldevelopment, as dairy farming wasestablished very early in the Ingersolldistrict. Cheese was made in 1852 andin 18fi5 the first co-operative checicfactory was built, this factory beingwithin a mile of the present fairgrounds. It was in this factory in 1866
that the famous big cheese, weighing7300 pounds, was made, that wasshipped to Europe and became theforerunner of the great cheese exporting industry. ,
In 1867 the first Canadian Dairyman'sAssociation was formed in Ingersoll.It is therefore quite natural that thearea surrounding Ingersoll developed
into a specialized dairy section andthat the dairy cattle exhibit at the fairshould be important. The fair is theshow window of the community.

What Others Say:
At the Library
Ah, To Be in EnglandNow That Ragweed’s Here
This is the time of the year when a fellah—
and plenty of them—needs * friend.
The fellah is the hayfever sufferer. This time
of the year is heaven to most of us, but it is at
the opposite end of the extremes for a great
number who react with loud sneezing, smarting
eyes, and raw throat to the depredations of tiny
little bits of stuff floating in the air, and so minute
none can be seen.
The big offender is ragweed, and it’s in its glory
now.
There is plenty of it everywhere in Ingersoll
and around the town, and war should be declared
upon it. Emerson Moulton, county weed inspec
tor, says he’s never seen so much of it—and there’s
a law against it,too.
He’s conferring with town officials, and Jimmy
Hutson, town weed inspector, on a campaign to
clear a lot of it out- Ragweed is officially a nox*
jous weed, and hence you and I are bound by law
to cut it down or kill by spraying or in some way
get rid of it If we don’t, when ordered, we can
he fined, or the authorities can push in and cut
it down for you, and then put it on your tax bill.
But most people wouldn’t knowingly leave stand
ing what is a curse to many of our friends and
neighbors. The town is responsible for noxious
weed growing on its property, but each property
owner is responsible for destroying his own par
ticular little patch.
We suggest Mr. Hutson gets busy, and every
citizen who has some get busy, and the town can
be cleared of the miserable litttle particles, and
hundreds of our fellow men will breathe easier,
and summer will be heaven again.
A Horae Named Moulton
In England the law will do much for a man,but ever since the Gaining Act of 1845 it won’t
collect his bets. Back in 1908, however, a man inLondon instructed his bookmaker to bet on a
horse. The horse lost and the man did not pay up.A defaulting loser experience* rough going; hemay find the racetracks closed to him; his name is
mud among his associates. So this man persuadedhis bookkmaker not to take public action, on hispromise to pay at a later date. He again reneged
and the “bookie” consulted his lawyers.
The Court of Appeal, Lord Justice FletcherMoulton dissenting, found for the bookmaker.
They ruled that the promise, plus the bookmaker'sacquiescence, constituted a new contract which
was not a betting contract, and therefore theaggrieved man could sue. That ruling has stoodfor forty years, during which bookmakers have
used the 1908 “second remove” technique to collect winnings.
But all good things come to an end. Recenttoan identical case went beyond the Court of App'milto the Privy Council, and with impressive lang
urage, their lordships threw the 1908 decision intothe legal ashcan. In a majority ruling they said
there might be a new contract, but it was the sameold bet that was being sued for; and, therefore,
the case came under the statute which forbids useof the courts to recover money “alleged to havebeen lost on a wager.”
Thus for four decades losing bettor* have beenhaled before the bar of justice and ordered topay up, under a leg*] ruling which never was the
law. This raises bewildering possibilities. Will anyof them now have the temerity to go again to
court and sue to recover the money for which theythemselves were sued? Or would that again beidentified as the same old bet and thus ultra vires
the courts?
Canadians who did without margarine forsixty-two years under a law declared invalid by
their Supreme Court can at least sympathize withthe bettors. They can also agree with The Times,which comfortingly reminds that “the law itself
may a bit of a gamble”, and speculates that the1908 defendant “lacked the courage, or, more
probably, the cash, to put his shirt on a horse ofsuch distinguished form as Fletcher Moulton and
bet double or quits on the House of LordsStakes."—Globe and Mail.
Eleven Devote Evenings
To Interest of Others
There is a group of men at Morrow’s to whom
should be given a medal, or at least a vote of
thanks. There are 11 of these good Samaritans, or
public benefactors, whatever you wil], and they
are Claude Wright, Jack Sowler, Dave and Jack
Hager, Norm Moulton, H. Longfield, Roy Brook
field, Frank Kean, Bernie Whittig, Stan Smith,
and Laurence Anthony.
As a result of the efforts of these men, many
youngsters and grown-ups of Ingersoll are enjoy
ing the pleasures and benefits of Wilson Memorial
Pool in the evenings, too. The Kiwanis and Y
program has paid attendants during the daytime,
but paid night attendants just couldn’t be afforded.
It seemed a shame to close the pool in the evening,
since only then could a lot of people get down for
a swim, either for fun or for exercise.
So the Morrow men—all of whom work hard all
Jay—volunteered to act as pool attendants in the
evenings. Two are, on duty each night, five nights
a week, and the extra man is a fill-in whenever
someone is required. They stay until pool closing—
/10 p.m. They get no pay, just free swimming
•privileges for the summer. The town should be
extremely grateful for the unselfish thinking and
actions of these men.
Fair Bigger Than Ever,
Boost Your Area, Have Fun
The Ingersoll Fair is YOUR fair. It is put on
each year, at great expense, to encourage—and
reward—men, women and children in this area
to do their best in their work, hobbies and pas
times. The efforts of these exbH&tors help raise
the standard of living and put more fun in life
for everyone. Besides having an awful lot pf fun
by going to the fair you encourage the exhibitors
and thus better your own lot. The dates—August
29-30-31. Go—It's bigger than everl
Parking Meter* Pay
Many municipalities have been 'sceptical about
establishing parking meters, feeling that the public would resent them and that they would be unpopular with tourists, but after they have triedthem experimentally, they have gladly made their
adoption general. Since the innovation began inthe United States, however, they have spread far
and wide, and so far as tourists are concerned,meters are so common that they are surprisedwhen they come to a city which has not got them.
They have proved a great boon in the Muskokaarea, where the tnoustands of cars that stop in
the small towns and cities between Gravenhurstand North Bay, have obtained thousands of dol.lars revenue each year that they never got before.
The most backward cities of adoption are thelargest. Toronto, Ontario’s largest city, has notyet ventured to try them. New York, the largest
city on the American continent, has not triedthem either,, but the city’s Traffic Commissionhas just passed an amendment to the city charter
to permit of an experimental installation of upto 1,500 meters with a minimum fee of ten
cents an hour. Eight other cities of over 500,000population—Detroit, Chicago, Buffalo, Cleveland,Boston, Washington and San Francisco—have
limited installations.- In Chicago, the city had aline of 303 meters on Columbus Drive with a fee
of 25 cents for three hours, and the City Councilis now considering the establishment of about30,000 meters throughout the city. Altogether,
over 2,000 cities and towns have parking meters,and the number is being added to every day. A
municipal organization reports that 39 Americancities have “talfiyi" over $100,000 each fromparking meters, and four of them—Minneapolis,
Denver, San Francisco and Oakland, Calif., havemade over $300,000 each. Buying them in 1,000
lots or more, the cost runs from about $60 and$80 per meter, according to type, and generallyspeaking, a meter pays for itself the first year.
The rest is all profit, subject to the cost of collection and maintenance, which is not much per
unit.— (St. Thomas Timcs-Journal)
There is something about Englandthat brings out the wit in writers,
particularly women writers, and mostparticularly American women writers.The climate, the British character, the
lack of labour-saving devices, the architecture and the servant problem, inroughly that order, I should say, withthe climate far in the lead* all serve
as admirable targets for their wittyobservations. It is usually rather hard
to tell at the end of their books justhow they feel about England and theEnglish except that it is nearly always
unbearably cold there, the people aremarvellously patient and stolid thearchitecture quaint but rather unsan
itary, and the servants invariablymore snobbish than their masters, whoand this is a continual source of
surprise.. are not snobbish at all. Sothat really, these books are not reliable as interpretive studies, but youcan be pretty certain that you’ll have
an amusing time as you read them.
I have in mind two such books. They
are “With Malice Toward Some” byMargaret Halsy which appeared ayear or two before the war and therecently published “England to Me”
by Emily Hahn and they are both atthe library. The former is the morespectacularly funny book for it con
tains a large number of bright quipswhich, whether by design or not I donot know, can be dislodged from their
context and quoted in conversationthus enabling the reader to appearquite a witty person in company. But
I think that the second book is thebetter all the same. Miss Hahn is aglobe-trotter and journalist of long
experience and though she too dwellsat greatest length on those topics mentioned above, she does so in a less selfconsciously amusing fashion and with
more penetrating observation. Shewent to England almost directly fromthe Orient as the wife of a British
major and had the forbidding task ofrunning an English country houseunder the trying conditions of post
war England. The various aspects ofcounty life and town (London) life aswell as the more specialized problems
of managing a household consistingof cantankerous servants, a Chinesesecretary and her Polynesian child,
Danish nursemaid, Polish and Scotchfarm labourers are all dealt with ina very human way. For two or three
chapters the authoress takes usjvith
her and her husband on a holiday to

Notes on the Editor's Pad.
Ever since we read Robinson Crusoe and Swiss
Family Robinson, we’ve known turtles were good
to eat. Not just a snack, but if you got one of the
larger numbers, a whole series of full course
meals, with a shell suitable ^or a wash basin X»r a
bath tub thrown in. When Don Murphy, of Suth
erland Construction Co., told us that in the course
of the Thames project they were making hundreds
of turtles homeless, big ones and small ones, we felt
it would be a good idea to pass along the word
that there were a lot of good meals running loose
down at the Thames these days. So we reprinted
an article from a sporting magazine telling of the
delights of turtle meat and turtle soup, how to
catch them and how to prepare them fit for a
king. We couldn’t get up enough courage to go
catch one and try it for ourselves. • But now it
looks as though we’ll have to. Into the office the
other day came a nicely wrapped parcel ad
dressed to us. Yep, you guessed ot—a nic^, big
turtle, very much alive and not the least inter
ested in going into the pot. We are weighing his
fate carefully.
An Architect*’ Show 1Architects have this advantage over other
artists, that nobdy has to pay money to see their
works, and it is indeed impossible to avoid seeingthem. Perhaps that is why the architectural pro
fession has never before staged a show at theCanadian National Exhibition. This year they aregoing to do so, under the sponsorship of their In
stitute. They asserfe, very firmly that this showwill have nothing “arty” about it, but we think
they .would probably be annoyed if we said that itwill contain no art. Its main object, however, willbe to show “how architecture keeps pace with the
social ideas of the country, and how the state ofsociety is reflected in the architecture of thetimes.” The most up-to-date exhibit, on this basis,
should be a design for a Labor Temple and anotherfor a baby Bonus Bureau.
We ourselves have an idea—probably too late
for this year’s show, but there is always nextyear’s—for a new type of duplex, in which everything will be in duplicate (one for each family),
except the kitchen, which will be between the twodining rooms. Each alternate week The membersof Family A will cook for and wait upon the
members of Family B, to be in turn cooked forand waited on during the succeeding week. Thusevery household will have maid and butler ser

Bovine Queen*
Perhaps there is a lesson for us in the feat ofLonelm Texal Happy of Wilton Grove. She hasjust been honored for adding a new laurel to her
crown, that of being the only cow in the worldwith four consecutive records of more than 80,000pounds of milk. She also holds milk and butterfat
records.
There has been a great deal of consternationin Canada regarding the future of the dairy in
dustry since margarine entered the picture. Butthe blue ruin talk doesn’t seem to have worried“Happy” unduly. She has kept on producing. And
If more Canadian cows were in her class therewould be less cause for worry about the future,
for there would be fewer “boarders” to push upproduction costa.
And just to show that “Happy” is not the onlycow in the district to break records Rath Holme
Rag Apple DeVries was honored at the same timefor completing a world record for 305-day production of butterfat in the mature class. Withcow* like that the dairy industry can stand up

Drove After Drinks
Given 7 Days
Seven days in jail, and $27.75 costsor another seven days, and loss of hisdriving permit for one year was the
sentence given A. C. Windram in police court Friday on a charge of drunkdriving. "Your very frank,” Magis
trate R. G. Groom said, after all evidence was in, “but I’m afraid the evidence is all against you.”
The charge arose out of an accident at Thames and Carnegie streetsinvolving a car driven by Windram and
another by William Flaro. There wasno serious damage.“I was backing around, when accused drove into me from behind.” said
Flaro. “Accused accused me of backing into him. When he stepped out of
the car, he almost piled up in a heap.He had been drinking. He called policeto the scene.”Provincial Constable Harold Chis-lott told of finding Windram leaningagainst the Morrow Plant, finding a
case of beer in the car, and added:“Accused couldn’t give me clear, straight answers with regard to the ac
cident We had a bit of an argumentas to whether I had the right to remove the beer in the car.”
Constable Chislott said he took accused to the station, locked him up, andwent out for Constable Dennis Alsop.
“When we returned he was asleepon the floor.” he said. Constable Alsop said accused was unable to walkstraight when tested.Sam Smith, with Windram at thetime, said Windram was driving allright. “Yes, we’d had a drink or so,”
he admitted. “We had a couple ofdrinks at Woodstock, then one at myplace. But Windram was okay. He
even telephoned the police himself."Windram said after the accident hewas pretty angry. “It was my father’s
car and it had just been fixed,” hesaid. “I admit I was drinking but Iwasn’t drunk. I had three or four bot
tles before dinner. Then at Woodstockhad a couple of beers, and then hadanother with Mr. Smith.”“How’d you happen to fall asleepon the floor?” asked Mr. McKay.“I was tired—wore out after my
holidays,” he replied.

' ‘Well, I was, afraid he’d follow u«,I and take work away from us.” he■ admitted.“In the car, you had some wordsover barns.” ''Yes.’’"And someone lost his temper?”"Yes.”
"You say Mr. Anscombe struckthe first blow.”"Yes.”
Johnson told Mr. Buchner Anscombe hsd taken jobs away fromhim. “And had you taken any away
from him?”"Yes, one.”Mr. (Morris, who was with John

They were eventually both standingthere slogging. In the fight, Emerson's braces broke or came off, and
his pants kept falling down.”Edward Nunn said he was in thestation drinking a goke. I just turned
around in time to see Anscombe'slegs going through the car,” he related, as laughter, shook the court.
“It looked as though he was beingpulled through - - right straight

Mr. McKay noted that Anscombe

wouldn’t have laid a charge if hestarted the fight.“Johnson no doubt should get
credit for putting up a stout fightunder difficult circumstances,”agreed Mr. Groom, “but I have no
