Dorchester Man and Wife Escape Noronic Fire
Second mate Wilbur “Bill” Bowles and his
wife, Mary, of Dorchester, escaped the flaming holocaust of the luxury ship Noronic when it burned
and sank at Toronto early last Saturday. Secondmate Bowles is seen in a picture taken during the
summer, while’in the other picture is shown Mrs,
Bowles back in Dorchester, discussing the catas
trophe with two of her four daughters.

Dorchester Couple Escape
Blazing Ship Down 75' Hawser
A dramatic hand-over-hand escapedown a 75-ft. hawser from the blaz
ing inferno that only a few momentsbefore had been the luxury liner,“Noronic”, was made by Mr. and
Mrs. Bowles of Dorchester.
This was the second summer thatMr. Bowles had worked on the route,
though he had not been with the“Noronic” alb the time. Mrs. Bowles
was spending the week-end with herhusband, who was second mate ofthe ship.
“The ship was due to pull out Sat
urday night,” she told The Tribuneon her return to. Dofchester, "andthe first thing Bill or I knew was
when we heard the alarm sound.”
“We rushed on to the deck andalthough it was only a matter of
minutes the* ship was already a terrifying mass of flames. My husbandand I did the only thing that it was
possible for us to do and swung
down the 75 foot hawser to the dockside."I could do nothing to help and
simply stood there and watched theliner go up. Bill rushed back intothe blaze to do what he could to
help. Luckily he was not injured,but he had to stay in Toronto."After it was over we were takenback to the Royal York Hotel by one
of those fleets of taxis that werehelping, and on Saturdaly evening Icame on back to Dorchester..
“Our cabin”, she explained, "wasright up forward on "A” deck, rightat the top of the ship. We didn’t have
time to get dressed, we just ran anddropped from one deck to the next
one twelve feet below.”The hawser down which she andher husband swarmed, said MaryBowles, saved the lives of at least
100 people. “There were people infront of us and more behind,” shesaid.
Reported Dead
Is Found Alive
A fornier Ingersoll man first reported dead in the Noronic disasterhas been found safe in London. Thefirst report was that a naval dischad identified one body as Neil Waters, of Sarnia, but formerly of Ing
ersoll. His sister, Mrs. Robert Patterson, Margaret St, Ingersoll, told the
Tribune even before Waters turnedup alive in London, that she felt Itwas all a mistake. That it just couldn’thave been him. It wasn't.
Tonight’s the night— and tomorrow, and Saturday! It’s the IngersollKiwanis Carnival, with fun and
frolics and hundreds of dollars inprizes, at the community recreationcentre,
A potential car thief didn’t get toofar. Constables Huras and Chislettfound a green buick in a ditch on theNo. 2 Highway just West of Ingersolland questioned Duane Sceerey, no fixed abode. Subsequent investigation
proved that the car had been stolenfrom a Woodstock Used Car lot.
At their meeting on Monday nightmembers of the town council pledgedtheir support of the action by the
Chamber of Commerce on complaining about the crossing jams. “Weheartily endorse the letter from the
Chamber of Commerce and promiseany support to obtain the desired result,” they said.

No action, say police, will be takenon a verdict brought in by the juryat an inquest held in the town hallMonday night into the death of Wm.
Pickard, of London in a car crash nearCentreville on August 7th. Driver ofthe other car involved was Wilford
Fournie, London, who was travellingwest at the time of the collision. Theverdict returned was that both cars
were on the south side of the road atthe time of collision. They made theirverdict from photographic evidence.

Mr. and Mrs. J. J. McLeod consider themselves very )ucky indeed.
They took a trip to the head of thelakes on the Noronic. One weeklater, over 106 people died on her.
The Y has a new look this year asthe result of the fine Community Cooperation and Enterprise.Jack Douglas, whose interest inyoung people through Scouting and theY, donated the paint for the job andthe Clarke Bros, took an extra even
ing time on two different nights tocome up with their equipment anddo the work voluntarily.
As a result, the Y takes anothersmall step forward in being a neatattractive centre for the young people
of Ingersoll.Let’s take our hats off this weekand give an "oscar” for good deeds
to the Clarke Bros., Red, Pete andTom and to Jack Douglas. Nice goingmen.
It is annoying when you pick up ithe phone, ask for a number and are ,
told the line is busy. We've all hadthat happen to us, but how manystop to think and realize that per
haps it isn’t the fault of the tele- 'phone company after all?Great strides have been made on '
the Ingersoll exchange, H. I. Stewart ,told a Tribune reporter, and allbeing well, by next summer Ingersoll will be completely re-fitted withthe new-type telephones on whichdials can be inserted at any time
without causing a major change overand possible disruption of service.It will not be quite as easy as that,
however, he explains, for at the endof the war the Ingersoll TelephoneCompany placed an order for dial
equipment and were told it was unlikely that it would be fulfilled within ten to twelve years.
At, the present time the Ingersollexchange has a greater number ofparty lines than any other exchange
irp. the province. Just pick tip a directory and open it at any page. Godown the list and it can easily beseen just* how the 75% party line
service comes about.However, says Mr. Stewart, when*all the new equipment has been in
stalled, no party line in town willhold more than two subscribers andno rural one more than four. (At
the moment the figures are eight andfourteen.) It will result in a faster,
more efficient service.The present holdup is due to shortage of cable, and the company cando nothing about it, he says, but adelivery is promised for late fall
' this year, at which time they can goahead in laying some twenty miles
of cable that is on their work program.
New Equipment
The switchboard had “ 100% increase built into it last year and isready to supply numbers as soon as
cable arrives and is laid.For some time past now, in an unobtrusive way, the company have
been replacing the old type of phonewith the modern one-piece equipment. As soon as a phone goes off
the service list, it is taken out, scrapped, and a new one fitted, ,he says.Hundreds of old telephones aru
being stored in their garage, awaiting orders for junking.
Staff a Worry
One of Mr. Stewart’s greatestheadaches—one that is comm » toall telephone companies thd Xover—m the constant changeover
staff. It takes six months to train a .1
operator to the point where she canbe relied upon at the switch bead,
and just in September alone, threegirls left to get married.He reckons on getting an almost
complete change of staff twice ayear and this is a lot better thanin some towns .where their operatingstaff is constantly changing.
It is certainly a headache, andevery day, Mr. Stewart is having totell people that he cannot give thema phone yet But, given the promisedconsignment of cable in the fall, heis confident that, as he says, Inger
soll will be ready for the dial service, just as soon as the equipment can be. obtained. Perhaps his dream of a dayI when Ingersoll people will all bei able to get private lines isn’t such ai drcam after all. ,
DAYLIGHT SAVING
TO END SUNDAY
Daylight Saving, decided cou
ncil, will end in Ingersoll, asthe original bylaw allows, onSunday September 25th.
“I can't see where there isany saving by changing it,”opined councillds. Morrison, “but
when your neighbors change weshould do it too.” (He was referring to, the fact that some
municipalities are continuing onto the end of October).
“The bill calls for September25th,” said Mayor Dr. J. G.Murray.
“If it is of such prime importance then time during whichit is to be in effect should belaid down by a general edict,”said councillor Morrison “Especially in Ontario whei< hydro
is at such a premium.”*

Another attempt on the world’s
speedboat record will be made inMiss Canada IV in the next coupleof weeks, according to Harold Wil
son. her driver.The boat is ready, he says, andapplication has been made to make

used, and it is reported that whileit is not expected to give Miss Canada IV the top speed it has had, it
will give enough to break the recordof 141 miles an hour held by Brit

By Transport Head
An investigation by the C.N.R. and the Ministerr of Trans
port into the crossing jams on Thames Street, has been prom
ised and a report will be placed before the C.N.R. President,Mr. R. C. Vaughan. A letter received from M. A. Metcalf, vice-president and executive assistant of the C.N.R., by LeighSnider, dated September 14th, says:“I am aware that the condition complained of has been
brought to his (Mr. Vaughan’s) attention on a previous occasion and am asking the eAgcutive vice-president for a further
report to be placed before the president.”"I am going to Ottawa,” wrote Clarke Murray, M.P. for
Oxford, “and will personally contact the Minister with a hopeof alleviating the situation.
“I shall adyise you via letter of his comments and doeverything in my power to alleviate a situation which I know
needs rectification.”Says T. R. Dent, M.P.P; for Oxford, *1 want to assure you
that I will be glad to use all possible influence that I have withthe Minister of Highways to persuade him to co-operate withthe Dominion Minister of Transport to alleviate the nuisance.”
Will Take Up MatterHon. Lionel Chevrier, Minister of Transport, wrote to the
Ingersoll Chamber saying, “I will be pleased to take the matter up with the management of the railways and will write
you again as soon as I have received a reply.”Commissioner of Police William Stringer says, “As this is
a problem outside the jurisdiction of the Ontario ProvincialPolice, I am placing the matter in the hands of the Deputy
Minister of Highways for the Province.”Only one letter, that from the Minister of Highways, has
received adverse comment from the Chamber of Commerce,The letter said, “I shall be glad tc/ co-operate but this seems to
be a situation entirely under the control of the railways.”“It seems to im,” says Leigh Snider, “thatitjs his highway

added their protests on the question. A reply received fromthe C.N.R. by William Stone Sons Limited, says: “Earlier in

and l;00 p.m., 4.55 p.m. and 5.10 p.m., these being the hourschiefly complained of. The Mayor seemed to be satisfied with
this arrangement.”A. E. Izzard has writt&hrinjreply: “We are surprised that
the council had agreed to any such thing, but are quite certainthat the times have not been lived up to. In any case it is no
solution. The only solution is to change the shunting operationsto another location.”Saturday noon, at about one o’clock, traffic was held upat the crossing for 11 minutes. A member of the Chamber ofCommerce was in the tie up and timed it. Police are maintain

when friends said, why don’t you,that he sent it on speculation to aHollywood music publisher. The pub
lisher raved about it This week Gusgot hia first copies of the new song.“They’re being sent to radio units
and bands, and if someone decides tofeature it, I’m in,” he says. He’swritten other songs, and if this one
goes over okay, he’s going to sendthem to Hollywood too.. The publisheris interested.Every Sunday Mr. Ernst journeysto Redeemer Lutheran church, Waterloo, to play the organ there. All six

AN OPEN LETTER TO:
R. C. Vaughan, Esq.,Chairman and President,
C.N.R., MontrealDea'r Mr. Vaughan:
There’s a situation down here we feel justifies a personalvisit from you. Better bring your friend, the president of theC.P.R. down too, because while you people are the big offen
der, the C.P.R. manages to be in there gumming up the workson the occasional C.N.R. off moments.
It’s the matter of the Thames St. crossing. Now we knowyou have plenty of crossings, from Halifax to Vancouver, but
we doubt if any other dozen cause as big a shambles or asmuch language as the one on Thames St., No. 2 highway, to be
exact—in our otherwise haypy and serene community.The chaos has to be seen and the language heard to be
appreciated. I venture to say you couldn’t see worse trafficjams anywhere, and it’s all because of your boys and their
passenger and freight cars. When a passenger going west,pulls into the station, its tail-end is parked clean across the
highway. Afid as you know, there isn’t a busier highway inthe country than No. 2, and everything on it seems to gothrough Ingersoll.
, Wltb y°ur passenger stopped across the highway,traffic between Montreal and Windsor starts to jam up in
Ingersoll—On our main street. It’s lined up for blocks. Thesame thing happens when your boys start doing a bit of shunt
ing and switching. I don’t mind sitting a moment or two watching the gentle art of shunting, but after ten minutes or so, thenlife seems very gnm, and Stephenson or Watt, whoever it was,
comes in lor a terrific beating for having dreamed up thoseiron monsters.
A motorist doesn’t mind being held up once in a while,
but it happens day in and day out, and the blockade alwaysseems to be in force just when a lot of people want to go some-

THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 22.
Notes on the Editor's Pad..
Jasper Park, Alberta — It was a cold bleak day
in December, 1922, when the late Sir Henry Thorn
ton, president of the C.N.R., and his party, including
Walter Thompson, present C.N.R. publicity head,
trudged across the snow-coveM, ice of Lae Beauvert
here. Sir Henry stopped on the ice, looked across at
the drift-covered, rock-bound, tree-littered shore in
front of him and started to talk .. .“we'll put the
lodge there and the golf, course over there, and the
swimming pool there.........."
Evryone thought he was mad, but his “madness”
has turned into one of the most magnificent tourist
spots in the world — Jasper Park Lodge, in the
heart of the mountains. On top of that snowy rock
pile have risen 60 log buildings, including the largest
in the world, and also-including one cabin which can
be rented — at $150 \ day. The King and Queen
stayed in it. We just lodged at it.
All over the place are signs telling unsuspecting
city slickers to look out for the bears, and please
don’t feed them. For a time we thought the C.N.R.
had precisely two bears there — for atmosphere.
Every day these two would show up on the lawn,
prance about, pose for pictures, get everybody oohing
and aahing, then disappear. Everybody had their
pictures, and everybody would rave about the wild
life at Jasper. Sissy stuff. Probably had the bears
in a cage overnight. But we went walking one day
and happened to go near the garbage dump. Folks,
those bears are the real McCoy — there were exactly
24 bears of all shapes, colors and sixes prowling
about the dump! And their home was no cage;
they were fresh from the woods!
Part of the “treatment” for all the weekly editors
in convention here was a barbecue, true western
style, complete with cowboys. The meat took a little
longer than mother’s pressure-cooker to cook, but it
was real chow, as we westerners say. First, the day
before the barbecue, an eight foot long pit, about
three feet deep, was dug. It was lined with stone,
and a full-length fire begun. For hours, wood was
heaped on until there was a bed of coals six or seven
inches deep. Then sand was spread over the coals —
eo the meat wouldn’t burn — and a 450-pound steer
(now in a number of cheesecloth parcels) was laid
on top of the sand, and everyone went home to bed
and dreamed of western-style beef-burgers. All night
long that beef cooked there in the shadow of the
mountains, and the O.C. barbecue prayed the bears
wouldn’t upset the party. Next day, after the meat
had cooked 16 hours, 300 newspapermen and friends
polished off in short order the prixe beef kindly
donated by Burns and Co., who say that in the west,
where men are men, their beef is real beef. But
apparently there was no danger of the bears eating
the stuff, during the night. Said Howard Kelly, of
Burns; “Three or four days later that meat — if
left there — would have been too hot to eat.”• • • •
We hate to be always talking about bears, but
after all they’re the first we’ve seen outside a zoo.
And you don’t always find one pulling the Fagin
act As you may recall, Charles Dickens’ Fagin was
keenly interested in other folks’ property, but let
small youngsters do all the dirty work for him.
Momma Bear must have read the book. Not at all
upset by the fact people were watching, she went
up to one of the cottages, carefully opened a trap
door, and pushed Junior in for a little sneak preview,
or, as they say in detective stories, to case the joint.
What Junior found must have been okay because
Momma decided to go too. First she started in head
first — no go; then she tried it sideways', but it
still wouldnt work; finally she tried to back in, but
even she knew it was too ridiculous for words. She
grunted in disgust, called for Junior and off they
w ent —•. •••• -
All the way out and back, we peered behind every
bush and scoured the shores of every lake for a
moose. It was the kind of country every self-respect
ing moose should be found in. But to no avail __
until on our return. We were in the observation car,
doing about 70, when there was a terrific bump. The
train stopped, the trainmen started looking around,
and everybody wondered. A cow moose, peighing
about 1200 pounds, had been on the track. Like fish
and bunnies and most animals — she went for the
light — and out like it But while she didn’t win
over the train, she caused it to stop — the collision
broke an airline.
Perhaps This Flag Design
Would Satisfy All Canada
The cover of Time magazine(Sept 12) featured a
portrait of Prime Minister Louis St Laurent It
also suggested what we think might be a suitable
design for a distinctive Canadian flag.
There has been a great deal of controversy over a
flag of Canada's own, and it even reached the stage
Parliamentary consideration of designs, submitted
from all over Canada. The choice was narrowed down
to a handful, but then came the English-speaking,

at head It would be niee to have a distinctive flag,
as our country's International stature is growing by
the day. But on the other hand, we don’t object to
carrying on under a flag which means — or has
meant a great deal in the development of the world
today the Union Jack.
Down Quebec-way, however, there are a lot of
people who positively resent being included under
the Union Jack. They have initiated the clamor
for a distinctive Canadian Flag, and more and more
people across the country are beginning to think it
might be a good idea after all. French-speaking Can
adians feel there is no place for the Union Jack in
a Canadian Flag. So far as we are concerned, it has
a right to be there, but if the moot suitable design
to all doesn’t include it, then that's al) right; Eng
land will still realise we are not deserting her.
To our mind, the Time cover suggests a real dis
tinctive flag. The illustration includes a Red maple
leaf, centred by a blue fleur de lie. Why not place
that red maple leaf, with the blue fleur de lis. one
emblem of France, on a field of pure white? We
would have the red, white and blue of our English
descent, the Canadian symbol the maple leaf, and
the fleur de lis for the nearly 4,000,000 French-
speaking Canadians.
What about it?
What Others Say:
Carelessness Heads the Liat
One of the interesting bits of information of the
month comes from the American National SafetyCouncil, which reports that contrary to popular
belief, it is not the drunken driver, who is thegreatest menace on the highway, but the plain,
ordinary careless driver.Of the many thousands of automobile trafficfatalities in the United States, less than two per
cent were caused by drunken drivers, the SafetyCouncil reports. The completely sober driver who
failed to exercise proper care was by far moredangerous.People have been pretty well educated to the
fact that a man with a quantity of liquor in hisstomach has no place behind the steering wheel.
They have not yet realized that no man has anybusiness driving a car unless he keeps his mind on
his job every second, abstains from too greatspeeds, observes the rules of the road scrupulously,and keeps always in the back of his mind the con
sciousness that the slightest lapse on his part maycause tragedy.There is no excuse for carelessness on the partof any person at the wheel of an automobile. Thehighways are no place for the driver who has nota full realization of his responsibilities and who is
not prepared to exercise due precaution while onthe road to assure his own safety, that of thosewho may be with him, and of his fellow motorists.

Water la a Grand Asset
The point made in a recent letter published/ on
this page, that stream pollution is general throughout Ontario, has been widely verified this summerby vacationists. Streams which a few years ago were
excellent for swimming now are dangerous. The oldswimming hole has become, in an astonishing numberof instances, an up-to-date cesspool. And even trout
streams which once enjoyed at least local fame arenow abandoned by all save a few flaccid suckersand the unlovely catfish.
Municipal authorities are for the most part awareof the situation, and where pollution menaces the
health of bathers prohibited placards have been erected. That precaution may protect the would-be
bather, but it doesn’t purport even to start cleaningthe streams. In many cases municipalities themselves are the culprits, disposing of their own sewage,
treated, partially treated or untreated, by flowingit by the most direct route into the nearest river orstream. But it is useless for only a few municipalities to forbid such practices, as upstream pollutionstill would flow down to them.The problem is a provincial one and it is urgent.If we cannot have clean water we cannot have cleanliness.. And, apart from ethetic considerations, thereare millions of dollars worth of resources, existingand potential, to be considered. These values are so,ndeed, that the cost of an all-out program ofbuilding conservation dams would be negligible. Butefficient anti-pollution measures must go hand in
hand with such conservation measures.. To the extent to which the province has safeguard
ing legislation, it- should enforce it Loopholes insuch legislation should be filled. Better still would be
an entirely new start in creating a province-widesystem of safeguards against pollution, to be followed by water conservation programs. The saving
of water should be considered as an end in itself,and not appraised in terms of immediate industrialadvantage. Until that point of view is adopted, sporadic half-measures will continue to be an expense.without compensation of any kind. But it is not en
ough merely to save water in volume. Its purity mustalso be saved. Flowing water does tend to cleanse
itself. But almost all rivers in Old Ontario have gonefar beyond their powers oi'self-cleansing. Those whodirty it must help to clean it and keep it clean. For
at the present rate of pollution the asset value of ourrivers is falling every day and will soon become agrievous liability throughout the Province.(Globe and Mail)
Food From The Sea
The dietician-scientists have bobbed up with a newone—a palatable bread spread concocted from pondscum nourished on seaweed—a spread as pure and
wholesome as any hungry child could ask mama tokeep in the cupboard. And it will be cheap. The notion
was put forward at Lake Success, before the UnitedNations Scientific Conference on the Conservationand Utilization of Recourses by Dr. F. N. Woodward,
of the Scottish Seaweed Research Association.In Scotland, and in California, experiments arebeing carried on with seaweed and with green algae.
The goal has been to obtain edible fats to solve one ofthe post-war problems of the world, the scarcity ofoils and fats. In addition to these two sources of fats,
there is a process of obtaining oil from wood pulpfactory waste, a plan the Germans worked out withsortie success during the war. The product contains
fat, some protein and appreciable quantities of b-vi lamins.If this program can be worked out on a large
scale, it would be the answer to the neo-Malthusianswho hold that eventually the increasing population ofthe world is destined to starve because of lack of
food. For the oceans are filled with seaweed, andplankton, -and there Is algae in suitable places allover the world. If these new products are palatable,
nourishing and cheap, the established spreads suchas butter and margarine would have brisk competition That day is some way off; nevertheless, synth
etic foodstuffs and foods processed from marine lifeare on the cards, and one day may very well savemankind from starvation.

Honor The Dead
Of Many Wars
A service that was" impressive ..., its very simplicity, and somehow1 emphasized by the dreary raininessof the afternoon, marked the annual:
’ decoration of the graves and Battle
of Britain memorial service held by’ the Canadian Legion on Sunday,
when more than 75 graves of veterans were decorated.
’ The parade formed up outside the
. cemetery and led by the Pipe Band,
(rind the color party, marched to thei cenotaph for the ceremony. The
i Legion Chaplain, H/Major Rev. C.t D. Daniel, made the call to worship
t afid accompanied by the Girls’I and Boys’ Band, the hymn, “0 God
f Our Help in Ages Past," opened the> service.i The invocation was pronouncedI by the chaplain and the Scripture■ lesson was read by Rev. George W.
; Murdoch, minister of SL Paul’sPresbyterian Church. Prayer wasled by Rev. John M. Ward, minister’ of -the Ingersoll Baptist Church, followed by the singing of “Onward
Christian Soldiers.”
The prayer of remembrance andthe Lord’s Prayer were led by Rev.C. J. Queen, rector of St. James’Anglican Church and the memorial
wreaths were placed at the foot ofthe cenotaph by Mrs. Florence Dan
iels for the Legion, and Mrs. EwartWilson for the I.O.D.E.
Following the Legioh Prayer, thesolemn dignity of the Lament by the
Pipers, seemed to bring home forcibly the object of the service and
with Drum Rolls, the Last Post, asilence and Reveille following, the
aura of quiet remembrance drewz amantle over the assembly,
"Duty is the sublimest word in ourlanguage," said CapL Bernard Acton, officer in charge of the Salvation
Army, who gave the address, “Doyour duty in all things—you can do
no more. You should never wish todo less.
“It will be a sad day for thepeople of our country when, for
any cause or any set of circumstances. they fail to recognize the
bond that unites us to that noblearmy of men and women whose en-duraiftn, 'heroism, sacrifice and deathwon for us our freedom."It was an inspiring address, onethat fitted well with the day of remembrance and at the close thegathering sang “Abide With Me”,led by the Girls' and Boy’s Band.
Benediction by the chaplainI closed the service and the graves
were decorated, after which the parade moved off to “Hillcrest", thci
legion home.

EVERYONE SHOPS AT WHITE’S
After Christmas, emphasises C. A.
Ackert, chairman of the Public SchoolBoard, all children living north ofthe river will be able to receive theirdue education north of the river. Atthe present time some youngsters, ingrade 2 particularly, have to come
from the north of the town across therailroad tracks, through the heavytraffic on Thames St., to the Mem
orial School.
At the meeting of the Public SchoolBoard last Thursday, Laurie Hyde,
inspector of public schools, urged uponthe Board consideration of the acceleration of pupils into higher grades
if their work merited the move.
“Your new classes,” he'said, “arearound 36 pupils and you can ask
teachers to do things they couldn’tdo before. One of the difficulties isthat teachers feel they should be tea
ching all the time.
"It is much better for the pupil tolearn for himself. It seems that when
the teacher..has them all in one classshe fears to^ive them an assignmentand then sit down and do something
else.”
Pupils, Mr. Hyde contended, shouldbe entering university when they were
18 years of age, not 21 or 22. “It isof course,” he added, a great mistaketo push a pupil too fast, but there is
a percentage that can learn fasterthan the rest of the class.”Best time for acceleration, he said,was in grade 3 or 4. What, in effect,it means is that if a grade 3 pupil wasquick and above average in learning
it would be able to take grade 3 and 4exams in one year and pass into grade5. He advocated one of two methods,
which he outlined. There could besplit grades where grade 3 and 4were both in the same room and thebrighter in gracte 3 can listen tograjde 4 work when they finishtheir own, then taking both tests atthe end of the year.
The other, he said, was one thatmost parents favored. That of dividing the class and feeding the brighter
pupils faster, keeping them separatefrom the others. They would finishtheir grade 3 by Easter and the same

Collects Old Guns for HobbyJ. Westcott Has Historic Pieces
In hit home at 2»4, Wellinctea St,
interesting collection at firearm* in
he has devoted hie time te the collection and haa it housed in the basementof the house where he haa constructed
matic, which was picked op In NewGuinea, and a PM automatic. He has
German Lugvr’s and pretty near everyother type of pistol.His rifles, though not so large a
collection are quite a thing in them-
ious weapons he ha* there.For safety Jimmy take* out thefiring pin* and breech mechanism*from hi* gun* then, as he says, “Theywouldn't do any harm if they werestolen.”
The moat striking part of his collection is the display case of pistol*ant'ita only in this branch that Jimmyallows modern firearms to make their
appearance. Mostly he confine* himself to old pieces that have an historicinterest and can tell you stories about
every piece he possesses. Of rifles hesays “I just wouldn’t have room tocollect all the modern rifles because
there are so many different types
Prize of hi* collection of pistol* is
an old 1798 pistol used in the time ofGovernor Simcoe. A two barrelledweapon hnd muxsle-loading, it vau
carried in a belt slung over the shoulder. The belt, in fact, carried a wholeseries of these pistols and wfcen its
two barrels had been fired tie gunwas put baA in the belt and me nextone picked out and fired. No ammun
ition was carried at all—just a lotof pistols.Then he has a Spanish pistol that
uses shells that have the firing pinattached to them. The pin sticks outfrom the side of the cartridge case
and is hit by the trigger of the gun.He has also a .25 used by Germanparatroopers in the last war. A tiny,
but deadly weapon, it fitted into theirboot* and was so constructed thatwhen it was pulled out it automatic
ally cocked itself ready for use.Oldest and most rare pistol in his
Ferry in 1851 at the Government Arsenal there before it waa destroyed.
He also show* a Towers rifle used inthe Fenian Raids which is a cap andbail gun. One of the smaller ones is
a short saddle rifle used by the WellsFargo riders. He has one of the first22’t ever produced with a breechblock.He even has an old rifle that wasfound in the water at Long PointDown beside them he has a small,but remarkably heavy, cannon ball
which he picked up beside the. riverat Niagara Falls. “Two of them," say*Jimmy, “were chained together and
fired so that when either of them, orthe chain, hit anything the two ball*wrapped themselves round and round.”
Sometime* these cannon balls, hemuses, were fired red hot so that theywould fire anything they hit
One of the rifles goes back to 1700and you can still see, faintly, the dateon the stock of. the rifle.
Would he sell them? “No,” says
Jimmy, “I would not I’ve put a lotof time into getting the collection together and travelled all over the coun
try and America to find pieces* WhenI have finished with them I shall probably present the'collection to a mus
eum.”That they have a value is unquestionable and Jimmy says that oneAmerican tourist who was shown hiscollection offered >5,000 just for the
pistols, on the spot
They are-kept under lock and keythough, and unless a thief knew wherehe could dispose of them they wouldnot be worth hi* trouble.
He picks them up at auction sales

working in factories at special'machines, in news stands and in can
teens. Not all are able to do so,many are too old, others are ailing
or suffering from further disabilities. But to each and everyone there
is something that can be done tomake life happier for them. Annual
dinners and picnics and more recently, the summer camps, have
done much for their enjoyment.Sight is precious; once gone nothing can take its place, so that the
sight-saving campaign, which is animportant part of the Institute’s
work is worth all the money expended on it Ingersoll has been very
generous in its giving in past years.It is the earnest hope of the mem
bers of the Woodstock AdvisoryBoard that this year’s Tag Day and
Canvass may be equally successful.The work of the Canadian National
Institute for the Blind is surelyworthy of the support of every lucky
sighted person.

Bridge Gets
Red Paint Job
It isn’t the little red school for- Ingersoll, but the little red bridge. The
bridge is the Pemberton St. one.Council discussed the painting ofthe bridge, a contract for which was
given to Clarke Bros, Ingersoll at acost of $225.Advocating that the bridge be pain
ted red was Councillor Leo Rangerwho, at a previous meeting, had suggested they do this so that in the
event of a diversion motorists couldbe told to “take the red bridge.”The discussion ‘on the painting of
the bridge had lasted some 20 minutes then Councillor Morrison remarked, “The George Washington bridge,
when it was painted, took 20,000 gallons of paint and the job cost $375,000. The men employed numbered 250
and they all had to pass Air CorpsMedical tests, including one for dizziness at heights. Our worries are ata minijnum.’’
"Red,” said Councillor Fred Wur-ker, "is one of the worst colors in theworld. After awhile you have a deli
cate shade of pink. I think grey wouldbe a much better finish. It is not agood policy to finish in red lead.”
It was, however, decided to have thebridge painted with an aluminumundercoat and red lead top coat, thejob starting immediately and to fin
ish within 10 days, weather permitting.

Individuality ia important; impor
tant to oneself and to the world.Nature inay abhor a vacuum but italso hates sameness. It abolishes it
in its every manifestation. No twoanimals or plants are precisely thesame. Nature cards leas for regimen
tation than the deepest dyed democrat. Nevertheless there is order in
nature. The sport in the animal orplant world, the creature or plantthat defies its species, is often the
forerunner of a whole hue of offspring that, while cherishing the onetrait that made its ancestor differ
ent, clings closely to the line of theformer strain. We are much the
same. We each partake of the family strain, but we are different fromeach other and from the parents who
begot us. The dominant trait, goodor evil, that distinguished someforbear, may have been transmitted
to us or be entirely absent. The impulses that led him to penury or
greatness may appear in children ofanother generation, often to the bewilderment of their parents.
In all this variation there is aplan, an overall plan quite undevised by man. The most thorough
going individualist is still in the category man, whose good and badtraits are as they have always been,~f various measures
mixed in a variety of ways. It is
difficult to believe that this can everbe different, or that any form ofgovernment anywhere can change
the fact that the individual remainseternally individual. In the mass

will develop in spite of any and allpressure applied by regimentation.
The mind goes its own way, elaborates its own plans, irrespective ofwhat is done to coeree the body. It
may submit or appear to submit tothe demands of a ruling clique, but
that clique fails to reach the essential being, which stands aloof andwatches, and remains forever un
changed. You don’t change yourmind, in spite of the repetition of
that formula, you change your opinion, a very different and quite conceivable thing.
Dictators have come and gone;persuasion and force have done theirutmost to eradicate the individual
who refused to become one of theherd, but who dare say that the
efforts oP the dictators to straitjacket initiative have succeeded orthat there is less individualism in
the world today than there has everbeen? No, all creation denies regi

J O IN T H e RESE RVE FO RCE M O W f
Turning to the history of Erskinechurch we find that the Rev. Archi
bald Cross was inducted as firstminister on January 11th, 1856. Inthe first year of Mr. Cross’s minis
try a church waa built on CharlesSt W., on the site now occupied by
the Beaver Lumber Co.
The first session of Erskine churchconsisted of Messrs. T. Hialop, D.
Irving, J. Hay, R. Kerr, D. Kerr, J.Walker, J. Lawon, J. Muir and J.Grant. Mrs. Grace Smith, who lives
with her daughter, Mrs, W. Bailey,Cemetery Lane, was baptized by
Rev. Cross in Erskine church in1856. Mrs. Smith who is 94, is enjoying good health. Her memory isvery vivid and she well remembersthe building of St. Paul's church in
1872. Mrs. John Gibson, in her 93rdyear, Mossley district, another member of S t Paul’s church, was a mem
ber of Erskine church. She walkedto church with her parents and re
members Rev, Cross’ farewell wordsto her from Matt. 6:33: "Seek yefirst the Kingdom of God and his
righteousness and all these thingsshall be added unto you.*'
Rev. Cross left in 1869 and hewas followed by the Rev. PeterWright, who remained until 1873.
During his ministry, a new church,which forms a part of our presentSt. Paul’s, was built.
The Rev. John McEwen followedthe Rev. Peter Wright During his
ministry, an organ was introducedinto the service of praise. For sometime there was talk of union between
Knox and Erskine. Finally in 1883the union was consumated. Rev,
John McEwen resigned as ministerof Erskine and the Rev. P. R. Rosswho was minister of Knox church,
became the first minister of the union church. Erskine became the
choice as church and the name waschanged to St, Andrews. Unfortunately, however, harmony existed
only for a short time, and in lessthan six months after the union, a
group withdrew to their formerchurch Knox. However, it was notlong before it was felt necessary to
come back‘and in 1889 the final union was consummated and the new
church was called St. Paul’s. Fromhenceforth the history of St. Paul’schurch reveals a strong and united
Presbyterianism in Ingersoll, working for the glory of God and the
advancement of His Kingdom notonly in this community, but in thelarger sphere of Christian activityas well.
The Rev. E. R. Hutt was ordained
and inducted on August 26th, 1890as the first minister of the new St.Paul’s church. The history of the
ft.Higraga’mn during his ministry ismarked by growth materially and
spiritually. The seating capacity ofthe church waa found to be inadequate and steps weA taken to en
large the building. A large additionwas made on the south side and a
new pipe organ was installed. As aresult of the evangelistic services in1903, by Crossley and Hunter, nine
ty-six persons were added to thechurch by profession of faith. In1906 Rev. Hutt died and St. Paul's
suffered a great loss.
The Rev. A. Bright became the
next minister of St. Paul’s, and helaboured faithfully until 1914 whenhe went to be assistent minister of
Parkdale church, Toronto. The Rev.Ronald Macleod followed Rev.
Bright. The World War 1914-1918came during Rev. Macleod’s ministry and he served for a time as a
chaplain. Mr. Macleod resigned in1919.It was during the next minister’s
ministry, the Rev. G. Wood, thatthe question of church union be
tween the Methodist, Congregationaland Presbyterian churches was con
sidered. By an overwhelming majority, St. Paul's decided to remainPresbyterian. Mr. Wood went to be
assistant minister of Trinity churchand 127 members from St Paul’s
went with him. The next Sundayafter the vote, services were conducted by Dr. A. S. Grant of To
ronto, and the church was filled tocapacity. By the grace of God thePresbyterian church goes forward,
believing that the giving of the wholeGospel to the whole world, is the
task of the whole Christian church.By linking up our lives and effortswith the lives and efforts of count
less other Christians She Gospel willgo out until all menft will come to
know and love Jesus, the Saviour ofmen.The next minister of St. Paul’s
was the Rev J. A. Brown. By hisfaithful and untiring efforts anddeeds of kindness, he endeared him
self to his people. His Christianlife and manner left its impression
in the church and community. Afterserving for seven years he died onApril 20th, 1932.
The Rev. Dr. H. H. Turner followed Rev. Brown. Dr. Turner’sministry extended from 1932 until
1946. During this time the worldpassed through the depression and
World War JI. In 1935 extensiverenovations were made to thechurch, adding greatly to its facili
ties to serve. Dr. Turner retired atthe end of September, 1946.
The present minister, the Rev. G.
W. Murdoch, was inducted on January 17th, 1947. In preparation for
the Centenary the church has beenredecorated inside and outside. Anew organ, using the old pipes, has
been installed by the Lye Organ Co.of Toronto, the original builders ofthe organ. The organ will be dedicated in loving memory of the menwho gave their lives in the two
World Wars.- Chimes will be dedicated in memory of Miss Janet Mc-

The Furniture Co. was originallyfounded by Mr. Hault in 1887 at whichtime he built the main part of thepresent plant for furniture manu-.
factoring. Some years later, it wastaken over by Mr. Ellis who continued and developed the business until
1927. Through this time the productsmanufactured were living-room tables and chairs and some upholsteredchairs. As time progressed other pro
ducts such as corner cabinet* andsmall writing desk* were added.In 1927 Mr. James A. Cole, who
spent many year* in furniture manufacturing at Elora, . purchased Jhev/ i P!ant *nd »dded ful'ther lin“ 10 their
Edtaon Moore, I m 8nufgcture within the next few
years Mr. Cole enlarged the plant anda double drying kiln. Around 1930 amajor line was added in colonial maple
furniture.In 1933, after the serious depression in Canada, Mr. Cole started manufacturing polished hardwood casketsand over the intervening 14 years, thispart of the business has developed tothe point where to-day the factory
output is approximately 80% topquality polished hardwood caskets and
only about 20% furniture.In caskets, under the name Ingersoll I
Casket Co., this plant manufacturesthe very finest polished hardwood
caskets made anywhere in Canada,products which sell for higher price*than any other all over the Dominion,
from Newfoundland to the Pacific. *In December 1945 Mr. Norman E. '
Horton purchased the controlling int- ’erest in these two jrasinesses and ««u- 1
med their active management in Jan- 'uary 1945. 1
All manufacturing processes required for both caskets and furniture, ’from the raw wood to the completely ;
finished products, are carried on in 1
this plant. 1
Lumber is received "rough sawn”and the first operation is to grade
and scale all the lumber. This lumber'is then loaded on kiln trucks whichcan be moved around on four separate miniature railroad tracks in the
lumber yard. On these trucks thelumber is then transferred to thedrying kilns, where it is thoroughly
dried. All lumber is dried down to amaximum of 5% moisture content,and then stored in the dry lumber room
on the ground floor.From the dry lumber ropm the firstoperation is the “break-out” or cut-■ off saw where the various pieces ofl lumber are cut to the different requi-
■ red length*. The step following is atthe "rip-saw” where lumber is cut tothe required widths. All lumber used
* is known as 4/4 which means 1 inch• in thickness.After planing and other operations,the next process is glueing the lumber.
Boards varying from 2 to 8 and 9 in.in width are laid flat and glued together edge to edge. This glueing pro
cess is highly scientific because thelumber has to be warmed as well asthe glue which is heated and melted
before being applied. The boards areplaced in clamps to hold them tightlytogether until the glue sets or solidifies. Other fabrication processes in
the Machine Room include work onthe band-saw, the sticker or moulding machine, double end cut off saw,
mitre saw, router, shaper, hand lathe,[ machine lathe, boring, carving etc. Allthe lumber that is fabricated in the
will take a first-class finish in theFinishing Room.The machint-d parts are then transported to the Cabinet Room on thesecond floor where skilled cabinetmakers assemble the various part* in
to either furniture or caskets. Thisis a highly skilled and interestingwork a* every part must fit perfectly.
In this department the finished article is again sanded by hand withfine sandpaper to smooth it off per
fectly. In cabinet making manualskills, dexterity as well as creativeability, are very helpful.
When the furniture and caskets
have been assembled they are then _ ,.wtransported to the Finishing Room on “the third floor where the undercoats,! J.®'1
