Gail Parker, daughter of Mr. andMrs. Alvin Parker, 129 Oxford St-.,would go to the end of the block in

hall and sweep the sidewalk outside.Tuesday morning Alf. was awayand didn’t see her. It was about thefirst morning he had missed his tiny
helper, and he thought he would seeher as usual Wednesday.But Alf. is left to sweep up alonenow, because wee Gail died shortlyafter five Tuesday, her bead crushedunder the wheels of a wrecker shewas in collision with almost outside

north down Oxford St. on the crownof the road because there were carsparked diagonally along the route. Asit was passing 115 Oxford St, the'child came out from behind a car. Thedriver wrenched hard on the wheel,and almost succeeded in missing her, i

Town Asks Okay
To Raise 395.000
For New Hospital
The town has asked the municipalboard at Toronto for permission toraise $95,000 through debentures tocomplete the new Alexandra hospital
ready for operation.Two readings to such a by-law weregiven at a special meeting of council
Monday night, and third reading cannot be given until after Queen's Parkapproval
Originally, the hospital trust sought $85,000, but the councillors warned them to make sure that the amount asked was final, that it covered
everything, because they couldn’t possibly go back to the municiple boardfor more.
So members of the trust went overthe new hospital, talked to officialsand surveyed the situation generally,and found there was certain equip
ment they hadn’t considered, thatwould cost an approximate $10,000more. They returned to ask $95,000,
to ensure that every eventuality thatthey could see was covered.Council passed it with little or nodiscussion, other than reiterating the
feeling that the hospital which wasgoing to be such a tremendous benefit, couldn’t possibly be left in a half
finished condition at this stage.

These Puppies Would Like A Home Can’t Vote Yet
On Liquor, Not
Enough Names
Ingersoll may not vote on the liquorquestion after all—at least not forsome time.
After a check of the petition askingfor a vote on the liquor store and brewer's warehouse for Ingersoll, Town
Clerk Elmer Winlaw reported therewere “not near enough names” on thepetition to warrant him sending it onto the Liquor Control'board.
A quarter of the town’s voters—1038 names—must be on the petitionto send it on. If it went on, the Board
would set a date and order the towncouncil to have the vote carried out.There is no possibility of a vote this
year since 60 days must elapse afterpassage of a by-law authorizing avote. If it fails again, there cannot beanother vote for three years.
There are five furry little bundles of joy waiting out atHenry Voigt’s, Centreville, for the right persons to comealong.Henry’s best friend, Spot, became a mother several weeksago, and left Henry with five puppies with no place to go.Henry can’t keep them, and he hasn’t the heart to destroythem.
So, this is his offer ....He’ll give them away—free—to the first five youngsterswho come out—accompanied by their mothers or their per
mission—and say they’d like one.They’re very cute and friendly, and just wagging their
tails in ecstasy at the thought of being taken*into some friendlyhome.

First Offer
The first positive offer camefrom Otto Whalen, who did most of
the speaking for Bathurst, at 9.00,just one and a half hours after the
subject had started being tossedback and forth.
"Can I make a proposition?” heasked after a slightly stormy dis
cussion about laterals that had not.seen installed according to townallegations. ,
“Make it fast,” answered theMayor, Dr. J. G. Murray,
“We will give you the $1,109back and call it a deal. You owe us$15,164.89.”Asked Warwick Marshall, town
solicitor, "What about the deficiencies in contract B?”
“You owe us $15,164.89—againstthat we claim $16,837.89.”
“You see how much we give you?”interpolated foreign-speaking Mr.Orsini.
"What about the work not yetdone?” asked Mr. Marshall.
"That’s what we pay you for”,—Orsini.
Thirty minutes later, Mr. Whalensaid $14,200 and we’ll call it a deal.
We didn't break the contract.” ."Don’t argue for a couple of hun
dred dollars”, said Mr. Orsini, "I’vegot to get away.”
Their winter uniforms newlycleaned and pressed, the buttonsnicely shined, the Ingersoll Provincials looked really smart Saturdaymorning, one of the erstwhile bandstepped out of his house ready to goon duty, regaled in his new finery.

passage was a very big, very wet,very, very muddy puddle. That’s
all. Forgiven but not forgotten.

“You keep pointing,denying,” said Whalen. M"What about the completion ofdamage to streets?” asked Mr. Marshall.
"Who is going to ascertain It?”asked Mr. Whalen, “I have endeav
oured to get a statement from youbut I’m still waiting.”
"I hope that this will be a finalsettlement tonight”, rejoined Mr.
Marshall. “What happens after thatis our baby. You have consistently
said you were never in the wrong.Why should the town assume the re
sponsibility of Bathurst for property damage? You gambled to make
or lose money on this job.”“You remember Portia, in the
Merchant of Venice?", queried theconstruction superintendent, "well,
you have got your pound of flesh.”"We haven’t yet but we’re closer
to it,” remarked Warwick Marshall."No more blood, Mr. Marshall,
no more blood,” was the answer.“How close are we going to get
together on this?” queried the Mayor testily, “we’re getting nowhere.
Town's Offer
After some figuring on paper,Councillor Tom Morrison said,
“We’ll give you $10,000.”“Can’t do it Mr. Morrison, can’tpossibly do it We give you $6,900back,” said Mr. Whalen."You’re getting off easy,” interpolated Warwick Marshall.“$16,838 is our total claim andwe strike it off alf $14,000,” saidWhalen, "That’s pretty good.”
"What about the number twohighway?” was a question of Coun
cillor Fred Wurker.“Frankly I’m ashamed of it,” was
Whalen’s reply, "but don’t blame us100%,
"Who are you going to blamethen?”i—Councillor Wurker.
“Suppose we give you till Junelto finish the job?” he continued./“No, no, no no, no,” was the reply from Mr. Orsini.
"You had the most inefficient
men on your bulldozers who ever goton a seat,” remarked CouncillorMorrison.
,“We didn't do it for spite,” rejoined the president.
“It was nothing but wanton damage. You were told about it,” said
Councillor Wurker.“They were absolutely inefficient
and careless”, added CouncillorHealy.
"When did it come to light?”asked Mr. Whalen.“All along the line.”
“We tried to do the best we can,’’said Mr. Orsini.

Prospects Good
For Hockey
This Year
Prospects of a definite announcementon rural hockey in Ingersoll within a
short time are good. Ross Fewster andAlbert Qqait were in Hamilton yesterday attending the Ontario Hockey As
sociation meeting and word from Rossis that a meeting of the local bodywill be held shortly.Ross also told The Tribune that he
is definitely not resigning from thelocal hockey scene (a newspaper report recently claimed that he was).
“It was just a rumor”, he said, “thatgot publicity. It isn’t right.”It seems likely the hockey set-up
here will be much the same as It waslast year, although Tillsonburg nowoffers ice to a rural league.

Still Need Lots of Money
If MY” is to Carry On
Officially the Community Y campaign is over, but
from the monetary standpoint it is a long way from
it The sum of $8,000 is needed to carry on the many
activities of the YW—YMCA the next year, but the
objective is a long way from being reached.
If the $8,000 cant be obtained, it means only one
thing — curtailment of Y services in this community.
It would be a terrible thing for the kiddies and
youth of Ingersoll and area if the Y had to start
rutting its services. Everyone benefits from them.
We’ve told you, in a long series of articles in The
Tribune, of the many and varied activities con
ducted or aided by the Y, and the community is a
very much better place in which to live and play
because of them. Canada will benefit because of the
better citizenship they inspire.
That $.8000 must be realized. We know people
who should , but have not made a contribution. Per
haps they do not realize the importance and benefit
of Y work. A visit to the Y, a chat with Ham Gosse,
Gord Henry, Bob Waterhouse, Buck Billings or any

For Better Cheese
The provincial Government has Mt out to raise thedemand abroad for Ontario Cheese by improving its
quality, and has earmarked $1, 000, 000 for the purpose. Included in the expenditure are grants of $450,-
000 to the Ontario Cheese Producers’ Association to
build ripening and storage plants.While Canadian cheddar is well liked in Great
Britain, our biggest customer, most of the cheese
exported from this Province is shipped “green,” andhas to be ripened and aged in British Plants. Thisprocess for cheddar ranges from one to two years,
during time it must be maintained in constant temperatures. The Government aims to have the mat
uring and ripening done before shipping.
It is an investment which should return gooddividends, not only in creating new markets abroad,
but in promoting and stabilizing the one* we now
have, especially in Britain. Due to economi*difficulties, the British people have to go sparingly on theamounts of money they can spend abroad for food,and this automatically involves the most practical
outlay of what they do spend. In the nourishment
value it provides there are few better foods than
cheese, dollar for dollar in costs.Canada’s contract with Britain this year called for
50 million pounds, and Federal authorities have an
nounced they will seek a higher figure for 1950. Thequality of the cheese available will be a major helpin realizing that aim. The more permanent the mar
kets abroad, the more stability and prosperity therewill be for the industry at home. Over the years ithas had its ups and downs, including high peaks
achieved in wartime. Naturally those levels—evenwithout British monetary troubles—would have beendifficult to maintain, but there is no reason why we
should not make them our target, with high standards, vigorous marketing efforts. The Ontario Government’s assistance program is a business-like way
of going about it.(Globe and Mail)

P. M. Dewan Would MakeExcellent Liberal Leader
Once again, we learn, Mr. P. M. Dewan has been
asked to join a committee set up to choose a new
liberal leader for Ontario. The vacancy will be crea
ted when Mr. Farquhar Oliver’s self-inspired resig
nation takes effect.
Frankly, we would think the committee would do
well in looking no farther than Mr. Dcwan — if he
would take the post Mr. Dewan has been a,staunch,
and able liberal for a long time. He was an excellent
minister of agriculture in Mr. Hepburn's regime, and
his general capabilities are well-known to all>and
respected both inside and outside the party.
In addition, he has the ear of the topnotch offic
ials and is very highly regarded on Parliament Hill.
Rumors are still current that his name is high on
the list for appointment to the senate.
With rfis experience, his friendships, his friendly
personality, and his keeness and ability to work, Mr.
Dewan would make an excellent leader. Some people
might think he is too old for taking on the mantle
of leadership, but look at Winston Churchill.
Speed The Plow
After an inclement beginning the weather mansmiled upon the 25,000 spectators at the International Plowing Match at Brantford, who were rew
arded for their faith and patience by excellent performances. The Brantford gathering is a reminderto older folk of the changes wrought on the agricul
tural scene. Plowing was one of the delights of theold-time farmer. His team was trained to the job,and providing he had fields decently cleared of big
stones he had a happy and enjoyable pastime every
Fall. All that is changed. Today we plow by tractor.Today we plow faster, and perhaps better, though
old timers will challenge this assertion.
However, there can be no argument about thepoetry of plowing. With a spirited team of Clydes,a crisp, sunny day and a hot supper waiting in the
house, an afternoon plowing was the perfection ofa farmer’s art. The tractor has stimulated production
and emphasized the business side of farming but
we are always glad to read there was u large “gallery” following the horse plow competitions. There’s
something about a heavy horse for which even the
most ingenious of implement makers has "hot yetfound a satisfactory substitute.(London Free Preu)

We think Bob Saunders, of the hydro, is missing
a good bet on those “northern lights” which have
made the night skies a spectacle during the past
couple of weeks. Here he is out looking for more

around loose doing nothing but look pretty. After
gazing in awe at the boiling heavens, we called Dun

about, and the official said it was electrical dis

there are “southern lights”, too. and if you don’t
think there is power behind all that prettiness, apeak

terrific time trying to get messages through the
Aurora Borealis power surging through their lines.
Frankly, we’d never heard of whales having ears,
but Lou Voll, of New Idea Furnaces, said they did,
and what's more he had a pair to prove it. As a re
sult, they’re sitting in the Tribune’s window—un
doubtedly the first whale ears to be seen in the com
munity. Lou said he got them during the war, at
Hawkes Harbor, Labrador, where he touched in dur
ing convoy escort duty. In fact, he helped cut them
out himself while 10,000 tons of whale oil were being
■ pumped aboard a tanker throught a two-inch pipe.
They’re the eardrums, he explains, and ordinarily
they’re gristle, but when placed in the sun four hours
or so they become hard as a rock—which those in
our window certainly are. Lou also brought in a
tooth of a sperm one—just a small one, though, says
Lou. Ordinarily they run up to 3% to 5 inches in
diameter. Some of those whales, says Lou, must have
some shaking toothaches.
Well, we’d seen it in the movies, heard jokes about
it and guffawed loudly at the discomfiture of others, |

In Thia Speeding Business?
Educational campaigns by the Provincial Depart
ment of Highways and tourist agencies plus the fullweight of the pressure of the police and police courts
do not seem to be eoual to the mounting toll of life
and limb taken by the speeding motorists of today.Analyzing the causes of these accidents. Provincialauthorities have found that 70 percent of highway
accidents are directly or indirectly caused by toomuch speed.
If speed is the cause, then it seems that efforts to
check the number of accidents will be futile' untilone of two things happen. Either the general run of
motor car driver must be trained to drive more carefully, and use better judgment as to speeds and distances, clearances and general rules of the road orthe modern motor car, now capable of speeds well
up to 90 miles an hour, must be geared down so thatsuch high speeds cannot be attained. The question
is often asked: “Why are such high speeds neces
sary?” and the answer is generally boiled down tothe old alibi that they are necessary so that motorists
may drive across country at a higher average ratethan is possible in lower velocity cars.Unfortunately, the high speed obtainable from the
modern car, is more often used to break the law, incutting in and out of traffic, beating the stop lights
or approaching turns at too high a velocity, than
they are for getting persons over the uncrowdedhighways. It is this illicit use of the extra performance under the hood of the modern car that brings
death, damage and higher insurance rates to the foreon our highways. The pwst effective way to stop it,might be to have car manufacturers limit the top
speeds of the modern car.(St. Marys Journal Argue)

A t the Library
■ Two big wooden boxes arrived at
the library last week, containing the30 volumes of the encyclopedia which
the library has been expecting. Thia
is the 1949 edition of the Encyclopedia
Americana, rewritten and revised andproduced for the first time' as a spe
cial Canadian edition. Besides some60 special pages of comment.and photos. the Dominion is completely covered, province by province, and by
artidea on its cities and people.The library has been consideringthe purchase of a new encyclopediasince the war and hopes this choice
will be uriiful. The Americana iswell-known for its treatment of tech
nical and sdentific subjects which arenot adequately covered by the library's own resources. Besides, the art
icles by experts in history, governmenteconomics, art and religion will alsobring whole sections of the library
up to date. For instance the articleon the Union of Soviet Republics isso comprehensive that it also has beenpublished as n separate book.
A feature of this encydopedia too,

Since the cessation of hostilities,1
the Legion has continued to observeRememberance Day in several important ways It ha# appealed to thepublic for funds for the relief of dis
tress among veteran*, families, and insome cases. their widow*. The Legionhas also held a Remembrance DayChurch Parade on the Sunday previous to Nov. 11th.
Last year, the Legion, together withother interested patriotic organisat
ions and individuals, succeeding inhaving the Corporation of th* Townof Ingersoll resume its obligations in
sponsoring and supporting, a CivicRememberance Day Parade and Service. This has taken the form of asmall parade from the market square
to the 1ODE Memorial Flag Staff inMemorial Park where a short servicehas been held at 11:00 a.m. on Rememberance Day. The event has been
attended by small groups of veterans,1ODE and other citizens.It has been evident that Rememb-
erance Day has not been observedwith the solemnity and thanksgivingthat the War Years led us to expect.
Due to the fact that as a DominionStatutory Holiday it has not been declared as such by the Provincial and
Municipal Authorities, most-places ofbusiness and industry have made observance of this day difficult for theworking citizens of the community.Therefore, it is requested that theChamber of Commerce exercise itsundoubted leadership in the life of our
town to ensure that this day of mourning and of thanksgiving for ourVictories receives the recognition that
it really deserves.
As you have no doubt observed, thelast few years have witnessed a piti
ful few trying to maintain and perpetuate the memories of sacrifice andpatriotic fervour that our Canada
seems to lack.
The dissention to a vocal few tochange our flag and our days of pat
riotic thought will probably succeed.Our government seems sympatheticto the ideas proposed to destroy our
regard for past associations, and therefore, Rememberance Day should beregarded more highly.
The aid of the Chamber of Commerce in honoring the fallen of pastwars and in assisting our citizens to
do so is respectfully requested.Stu Thurtell

DRIVE a NEW DODGE and one of thefirst things you'll notice is its riding smooth^
ness. It's snractltiug more than the result of
luxurious upholstery and “knee-level” seating
comfort — it starts with the chassis.
On the right are described some of the out
standing chassis features which cushion road
bumps... absorb shock and sway ... eliminate
vibration — to help bring you this smooth Dodge
ride. In addition, the Dodge chassis has the
ruggedness which assures you long, troublefree
life — famous as Dodge Dependability.
, That's just part of the extra value which makes
your Dodge dollar a bigger dollar.
Take a look at what Dodge gives you tn beauty,
roominess and performance. There’s extra bead
and leg room, front and back . . . flashing
performance of the powerful Dodge engine ...
extra smoothness or Fluid Drive on Custom
models... and many other outstanding comfort,
safety and performance features.
Let your Dodge dealer teU you why you'll drive
more smoothly with Dodge .. . and how your
dollars will gu farther
CHECK THESE “EXTRA” FEATURES
WHICH ARE STANDARD EQUIPMENT
ON THE NEW DODGE
Automatic electric choke; Automatic ignition key starting; Aluminum alloy pistons;Four rings per piston; Low pressure tire*;Chain camshaft drive; Oil bath air cleaner;Oil filter; Floating oil intake; Hotchkissdrive; Safety-Rim wheels; Floating Powerengine mountings; Chair-high seats; Fullwidth defroster vent*.
RUBBER INSULATION Is a substantialcontributor to the famous Dodge FloatingRide. There are soft, thick rubber cushion* at
all point* of contact between the body andchassis. In addition, rubber limit bumpers on
the spring* eliminate hard metal-to-metal
spring contact even under the most severeroad conditions.
SHOCK ABSORBERS of "sea-leg” typ- are
mounted on the rear axle to counteract side
sway. Dodge airplane-type double-.ivtionshock absorbers, front and rear, “rub out"
road irregularities. Shock absorber* on the
in # Dodge have been raised 5 inches asadded protection against flying stones and
dirt.
INDEPENDENT FRONT WHEEL SUSPENSION allow* each front wheel literally
to “step over" obstructions without transmitting the jar to the body. These independentcoil springs are of tough Amola steel
FRAME CONSTRUCTION is box-type of
double-channel, welded steel to give greatstability, safety and long life. Front and rear
bumpers are attached to the frame, the front
bump* r having a reinforcement plate forgreater strength.
’BALANCED WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
is an import.mt factor in the smotiih Dodgeride. The Dodge engine is located over the
front axle and the rear seat is ahead of the .rear wheels. The result is a car which holds
the rood and handles safely and easily ADpassengers ore cradled between the front and
rear wheels where the ride is smoothest.

An Explanation
And An Apology
When making preparation forour Annual Apple Day, we de
cided to use the brat applesobtainable and purchased No. 1McIntosh Red* at a price of
$2.25 per buahel hamper. Wefelt that in paying this price we
would be sure of receivingchoke apples.
While the Scout* do not actu
ally sell apples, but rather usethis method a* a means of securing funds to carry on Scout
work, yet it is our aim to givean apple that will be enjoyed
by those who are good enoughto support us.
When we opened up the hampers, we found the top layer to
consist of nice luscious apples,but underneath we found the
remaining apples to be of verylow grade. ThiaSvas a great dis
appointment to us, but as allarrangement* had been made
for Apple Day we had no optionbut to go ahead and use theapples supplied.
As the citizen* of Ingersoll havealways been most generous in
their support of Boy ScoutApple Day, we feel they areentitled to this explanation.
To every one who helped us bybuying an apple, we say “manythanks.’*Ingersoll Boy Seoul Association

IPS THE SEASON FOR SAVINGS ...
J.O, 11 ■ aaion w ---thto year. Ths cli«** flnal»
a gv<’d • a“ anyw” <*“ul*'wish to aes between two teams withvery little to choose between thsm.Hard fmwht to the very last ball, it
waa a fight that will leave memories ,for s long time—perhaps long enough
to last until next Spring, when usyoung men’a fanci®a turn once againto thoughts of bail and—er well, ....
Looking back, it is our opinion thatIngersoll enjoyed a successful ballseason. The softball league creaked alittle now and then, but provided a
heck of a lot of fun for a heck of alot of people. The Y’s Men-sponaoredhardball entry in the DBA Juvenile
“B” had a good run and almost brou
ght home a crown.
Because of the length of the seasonand the fact that all the games couldbe played under lights, the softballnaturally featured number one for
the fans and we’d like to say, for ourselves, thankyou to the leapie exec- vrown w cul uulruutive and all the players who gave us i no hitot none left>fans a darn good summer of sports.
Two things, more than anything
else, stand out in our minds whenwe look back over the last few months.The seven-game flying take-off madeby Dicksons, their subsequent eclipse,and that amazing fourteen gamestreak of Stones that carried them
from third to top berth in the leagueand smack into the finals.
There are a lot of things we shall
miss, too. The loud heckling of SamHamilton, at third, the way Bill Jordan digs himself in for an argument,
Butch Smith beating out a single tofirst (?), Brass McKee’s home run—lots of other little things that were
part of the game, also. But perhapsmost of all Red McMillan’s indignant tone of voice when a player dares
to question u decision.
Nationals Beat Six-Run Drag

One thing that has struck us about
Ingersoll is the number of young menin town who are really sports minded.It yas evidenced, if any was needed,
by the entries in the softball leaguein town and large numbers of fanswho turned out each night to see the
games. , vNow the ball season is over and thehockey season right at our doorstep,
in fact, as you all know, major leaguesare well under way. Now — thosesame young men who gave us fans so
much enjoyment in ball games wantto play hockey too.But, there is a big, IF.
Tliey need a manager and coach.They just can’t go ahead and play,they need those two guiding hands—
or just one to combine the jobs. Wedon’t just think, we KNOW that somewhere in Ingersoll there are people
who will be willing to give a littleof their time and experience towards
forming a team.Two of the young men came in tosee us last week. They want to playhockey and so do 15 or 20 others.
We have a list and there are undoubtedly many others who will want toplay. They suggested that an 0HA
Junior C team to be formed and entered, which we know is a good ideaand will have the backing of the spo
rts fans in town.They are all arotfnd the 20 yearsmark, too big to be any real value in
the minor league local games, andjust rarein’ to go. If we had the experience we'd more than willingly takeon the job ourselves, but it needs someone who can whip them into a teamin there. We refuse to believe that in
this town of 6,500 people there is notone sportsman who, remembering thekick he got in his youth, out of play
ing hockey, will not come forward andget the thing going.They think they can get by for
funds paying for the equipment themselves—and they will do it if theycan find someone to do the job for
them. It would be a nice gesture if wecould also find three or four peoplewho would be willing to donate a little
money to the team when they get under way. We say when because we! - — — —....x,....8honestly do not believe that they will J Thamesford crew. Colin Myles, pit-not find someone. Certainly lack of! ^ber. Not a lot was seen of him dur

20 Friends With TractorsHelp Bed-Ridden FannerHARRIETSVILLE - There wasn’tmuch fanfare. Just 20 tractors following each other around an eight aerofield under a grey October sky whilerain sizzled against hot motors.
Red, green, grey and earth-brownfrom the ground they worked, theyrumbled around behind the lead mach
ine, their two and three-furrow bladesturning the green field brown in under half an hour.Up in London, Homer Wallis lay on
a hospital bed and tried to visualizethe scene. He was helpless, both legsparalyzed by poliomyelitis, and one
of them broken in a fall.Along No. 73 Highway, on the Wallis farm, about a mile south of Moss
ley, was a 16-acre corn field, plowedearlier by the roaring machines injust over an hour.
S<>mc of the neighbors saw me plowingand nearly blew a fuaa. 1 only hadsix acres plowed when the crowd arrived. But 1 went out and helped them

braces, a pair of crutches under biaanna
This second plowing bee Tor Mr.Wallis was organized during the past
few weeks by fellow-members of HopeLodge, No. 69, IOOF. Last year, friends in Mossley organized a bee. On
both occasions plows from Harriets-ville and Mossley were present.From the neat brick farmhouse,
cheerful Mrs. Wallis had watched herneighbors roll in the gate and lineup shortly after noon. By three o'clock
it was all over and the line filed outin a driving rain.In his bed at the hospital Mr. Wal
lis listened to a description of theplowing bee.
“A Grand Bench”
“They’re a grand bunch of fellows,”he said.
Homer Wallis, a 200-pound plus
heavyweight, contracted polio in thesummer of 1948. That fall 23 tractorsand men rolled up to the farm and
plowed 35 acres.Said Mrs. Wallis: “I started that.
And all the while, his wife anddaughter, Ruth, worked with him. Heclimbed painfully on'the tractor, drove
it all over the farm and helped harvest the crops.It was all part of his own personalcure for polio."There's only one way to beatpolio,” he said. “Just keep going.”Then about a month ago, he went
to London to take his regular therapytreatment. While there he met withan accident, breaking his leg.
Now he’s back in the hospital forhe doesn't know how long.
Driving tractors were Wesley Jack-son, Stanley Marr, Clarence Demary,Jack Harrison, Herbert Morris, Alec
Wallis, a brother; Ted Longfield, G.Cornish, Roy Guest, Aubrey Barons,Ronald Spence, Cecil Ward, Andrew
Venning, Harold Clement, Ray Coleman, Robert Forbes, Lome Brady,Kenneth Clement, Charles Secord and
Joseph Robbins.
Plodding back across the mud, W.
A. Small unloaded soft-drink bottlesfrom his pockets. “I didn’t have atractor,” he said simply, “so I just
brought the drinks.”
As the men left the farm they didn’t stop for thanks; they moved off
in the rain outside the kitchen window where Mrs. Wallis sat beside achild’s blackboard.
On the board were the names ofthose who filed past.“Homer will want to thank them,”
Even BettyDidn't KnowMark Was ThereIt Is highly probable that not oneperson in a thousand here in Ingersoll
knows it is there. If they did theyprobably wouldn’t pay any attentionto it.
“It” la a Geodetic Burvev Mark onthe front wall of the publie Librarybuilding on Charles St. E. B. Crawford, our popular librarian, didn’t
know it was there when asked and aTribune reporter had to look search-ingly before he found it, and yet hun
dreds of people must pass it—everyday of the week.The survey mark is a small blackdisk cemented to the wall of the lib
rary. Around the edge are the words,“Geodetic Survey of Canada. In thecentre are "Ottawa, B.M., No. 2002".
And you have to stop to aee it because it is nestled behind a bush onthe extreme western corner of thebuilding.
In the course of his work with theThames Valley project, Gordon Pit-tock came across some information
about the mark, be says.It was placed there by a surveyparty either in 1935 or 1937 whenthe town was last visited by a party,
and the height above sea-level showing on records is 800.506 ft. A similarmark on Woodstock City Hall gives

lecture given by Dr. Channel atthe Teachers’ Convention recentlyheld in London. He stated there

of the latest is the recognition ofthe cerebral palsy victims. The de

classes throughout the province,teaching reading and speaking.
Through this training the defectivechild is given a place in the world.
A new school was opened this summer in Kirkland Lake for them.

Ingersoll Girl
On Yukon Trek
Among the field parties sent out by
the Department of Mines and Rescou-rces’ Geographical Bureau this summer, was the first all-woman party,
consisting of Miss Barbara McLeodof Ingersoll, and Miss Vera Lake ofToronto, both graduates , of the Uni
versity of Toronto,
These two young ladies made theirway along the Alaska Highway for1.200 miles, stopping for a day or so
at many of the small settlements.They also travelled over 600 miles onthe Yukon and Stewart Rivers and
made several trips by air over theYukon Territory.
They collected a great deal of in
formation as well as making a special study of the conditions in the Yu
kon as they affect women workingand living there.
Other parties from the Geographical Bureau studied such widely scat
tered topics as economic conditions ofthe Labrador coast, habits of the Arctic Eskimos and navigation channels
in Lakes Superior and Huron.

Worked for Months to Make
Gowns of Century Ago
Some old dresses, a few tucks,some feathers and bows—and a
great deal of ingenuity and hardwork—all added up to one of the
most charming displays seen in Ing
ersoll for a long time.
When the St. Paul’s junior choirput on their concert, Oct 13th in
the church, they were garbed in
suits and dresses of 100 years ago,
in keeping with the centenary thechurch is celebrating. There was
not one person present who did notcomment on the unusual and strik
ing costume* they wore.
The lady responsible for the dis
play, Mrs. Archie Harris, Harris St.,shyly declaims that, “there was
really nothing to it, you know. Infact, it was a lot of fun for every
one.”
The centenary was a chance for
the 31 boys and girls who form the
junior choir, to give their own con
cert and in search for something in
keeping with the centenary the idea
for the costumes came up. Mrs.
Harris volunteered to make them
and set to on old dresses and materials. donated by ladies of the church.
“It didn’t take long,” says Mrs.Harris, “and it didn’t take much
work.” One look at the costumeshowever, was sufficient to show hermodesty.
“A few tucks here, something
else there, a feather and a bow—there was relly nothing to it,” she
says “I don't think I “worked fourmonths and it was just a lot of fun
for both us and the kiddies.
The ideas “They just happened,”laughs Mrs. Harris. “People handed
in old dresses and I managed to
make them look like something.Mrs. McDougall made one or two of
the hats for me."It is quite obvious that Mrs. Har
ris, is a skilled dressmaker? “O dearno,” was the answer, “I am a grad
uate nurse and don’t profess tc^ sew.
I just put them together.”
For someone who doesn’t professto sew, Mrs. Harris is a remarkably
ingenious person with the needle.

Almost Choked
Creek Clear Now
There’s a little creek—or a sectionof one, at least—that has caused SidUnderwood, chairman of the Parks
Board, a lot of headaches. It’s thelittle rivulet that meanders quietlythrough Memorial Park.
Kiddles in the park love to playaround the water, and it is perfectly-
safe because the flow of water was solittle. In fact, a couple of weeks back
it had diminished to -such an extentthat Sid decided that it was timesomething was done about it
Stones, large and small, sludge,rubbish and just plain refuse, hadfound its way downstream and was
choking the stream where it ran through the park grounds. Five years agoSid recalls, members of the board cl
eared the creek out themselves but inside of two weeks it was as bad asever. So this time they decided to do
the job properly. For two days Sidengaged the services of a man whoworked one of those big shovel affairs.At first the machine didn’t do too
well, grabbing out as much water asrocks and things, but as work prog
ressed Sid was able to see that the'water was beginning to flow rightthrough the creek again. Now the
stones, rocks, sludge and refuse have
all been cleared away and • neat littlecreek once again runs through thepark.
However, Sid had thia to Bay, “Atthe back row uf houses along thecreek, further up, they are inclined
to throw refuse into the water. Weare trying to make a beauty spot ofit—not a dump. If wc catch them itwill be just too bad.”
