Mr. Saunders estimated the increase amounted to about 26e on the average $2.56 monthly house­ hold bill. On the average commercial bill of $8.30 the amount is 84 cents. Mr. Saunders said the increase was necessary because of increased wages and prices affecting costs and main­tenance. He said operating costs in the Southern Ontario system jumped from $20,277,000 in 1939 to an est­imated $40,091,000 in 1950. or 98 per cent. It wasn't our Helen—but it was her second cousin.

These mean that the reg­ular staff will be working extra hours, too.For the benefit of the public, there will be a third letterbox collection daily between Dec. 19-24.

They took $18 I had, my ; watch, a lighter and my brief case. ‘"Then the chap who did all the slugging—he seemed to be the boss, and was really brutal—told the other man to go up and get the gun so they could finish me off. This other chap didn’t want to. The ‘boss’ kept insisting I should be polished off so I couldn’t talk. He was pretty desperate and so far as he was concerned I wasn’t to get out alive. But the other chap wouldn’t do it “Then they hauled me back up the hill and climbed into my car. The ‘boss'—a real tough guy—sat behind the wheel, I was in the middle, the other chap on the other side. They stripped the car and loaded the stuff into their's. Then the ‘boss’ told the other chap to get the gun and shoot me. I said 'just tie me up, and put me down the hill. That’ll give you a chance to get away.

I thought for a moment this would*be a chance for me to start the motor, step on the gas and get away. But both doors were left open. Finally, they stopped talking ancHhe 'boss’ went away. The other chap came back and asked how fast could my car go. I said pretty fast, and he said 'I’m going to make sure he doesn’t shoot you—we’ll make a break for it-’ He started up the motor, stepped on the gas and away we started^ b.ut as soon as we snapped the guardrail, the younger chap jumped out and I was on my own.

Post Office Department, Ottawa THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1949 Woodsman, Spare That Tree There Are Plenty Up For Sale Everyone is thinking of Christmas these days, and Christmas trees! So is the man who has some nice trees growing on his property — and wants to keep them. Along about this time, there is a great tendency for Mr. John Public to “go out and cut our own tree down.” It makes it seem all the nicer if the tree is personally cut right out of the wide open spaces. Besides, it’s cheaper that way. As a result, many a family has awakened to find some of their prize trees, carefully raised from seed­ lings as windbreaks, bird sanctuary or simply land­ scape beautification carefully chopped off just above the ground. This happens every year, but it is nothing less than brazen theft and despoliation of someone else’s property. Signs of keep off or don't touch never seem to bother those hunting for a Christmas tree. We suggest that anyone caught should be severely dealt with by the courts. It takes a long time to replace a tree. So, with everyone thinking of Yuletide, and Christmas trees, we urge everyone heed that song: "Woodsman, Spare That Tree.” More and More Sand Needed To Take Shine Off Streets We feel that more money — and more energy — than already is, should be allotted to the sanding of Ingersoll streets during these winter months. Just prior to the big thaw last week, some streets were far more slippery than skating rinks. It was a terrific hazard to both motorist and pedestrian. If either started to skid, that 4as it, and only a brick wall, curb or another car could halt it. If sand is scarce, then intersections at least should get the full treatqjent At Thames and Canterbury the un­ usual sight of seeing cars skid uphill was not in­ frequent. At the same time, sand would perhaps deter youngsters from using the streets as sleigh or tobog­ gan slides. A shiny run for a few blocks ia most inviting — but it invites injury or death, too, for if a street is slippery enough to sleigh on it is too slippery for a car or truck to stop in time. Now is a good time to point out the menace of nsing the streets as a slide, and crack down heavily — in the youngsters’ own interests — if they fail to heed the warning. CANADA’S 700 weekly newspapers represent all shades of political and editorial opinion. They are an example of the working of free speech and of free, competitive enterprise. Unlike their daily sisters, they boost no "chains”, no would-bo barons of the press. It is, therefore, on only very rare occasions that they agree on a particular policy or procedure. And when such agreement is’reached, Canada’s govern­ mental authorities have always given them a con­ siderate hearing. That is the case now, as the 564 member papers of the Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association ask the federal government to revise its sales tax policy. The weekly newspapers of Canada, collectively, are big business, the biggest single influence on opinion in the Dominion. Individually, however, they are small businesses, owned and operated, in the main by small businessmen. They live by advertising and consider publications financed’ by private advertising the surest safe­ guard of the freedom of the pressT'1 Yet, with their relatively small circulation, they are faced with very strong competition for the advertising dollar. The government's own child, the CBC, now shares a portion of the weeklies’ former revenue and is expanding on funds! derived from tax receipts. Magazines, of general or farm content, regularly undercut town and village newspaper subscription prices, in the hope of building giant circulations and thus attracting advertising dollars which might find their way to the rural press. । Weekend newspapers, not a few of whom feed on sensation in their drive for mass circulations, also boast to advertisers that they/ cover rural Canada and that there is no need “to use the weeklies.” The weekly press is not afraid of this type of competition. Weekly newspapers play a vital role in the life of the smaller communities. They are better read than their big city competitors and the advertisements which they carry are also better read and thus bring better results. But weekly newspaper publishers do object to taxes to which neither the CBC, nor the magazines, nor the week-end papers have to pay. On every ton of paper, used by the weekly papers of Canada there is an eight per cent sales tax pay­ able to the federal government There is no similar tax, however, charged on paper used in Canadian magazines or American magazines sold in this country. There is no similar tax payable on paper used in the production of most week-end papers. There in no similar tax payable on paper used in comic books or pulp fiction magazines. Yet all these media are advertising competitors of Canada’s weekly newspapers. That this situation doesn't make sense ia obvious. It la squally obvious that the members of Canada’s faffWatnre will realize the need for equity in sales tax application. This discriminatory legislation 1 W go! Tragedy in the Bush A hunter creeps stealthily through the forest A (wig snaps in * thicket ahead. He freezes tn his (racks, hi* car* rocked Dry leaven ruatte? Another twig breaks- Something moves in the aider*. A deer? It rfiu*t be- Heart thumping wildly, he pulls up hl* rifle and lets fly al the moving shadow A human ery la beard almost simultaneously with thy crack of the rifle. The hunter rushes forward. What he secs chills his blood. A fellow hunter ia sprawled on the dry leaves dead. This scene, with variation*, wa* repeated many time* in the woods thia past fall. Hunter* were accidently killed because they were mistaken for game. Hunter* were killed because fellow hunters tripped and discharged their weapons accidently.. Out of nil the investigation* into sueh tragic deaths, one fact came out with stark clarity. No trigger-happy hunter belonged to a national shoot­ ing organisation. This is borne out by the National Rifle Association in the U.S. which claims that in the many years for which statistic* were compiled none of its 200,000 members had accidently shot anyone. A senior official of the Canadian Small Bore Association {now the Canadian Civilian Asso­ ciation of Marksmen) maintains that for the 15 years he has been connected with it, not one of this group has been responsible for an accidental kill­ ing. ThiB revelation is highly significant. It obviously indicates that safety rules drilled into one on the target range are observed in the bush. It give* the answer to how accidents with firearms can be drastically reduced. That answer; join your local shooting club or organize one if there isn’t one already- Become an active member and practice safety regulations until they become part of your instincts. If every would-be hunter did this, hunt­ ing would indeed become a safe sport. Motes on the Editor's Pad.. There’s a husband in Ingersoll who is going to be more careful about what he tells his wife in future. The other evening, said husband arrived home from work, tossed a bulky package on the table with the remark that it was "bear meat." To wife, who knew that some of his fellow-workers had just returned from a hunting trip, the explanation was plausible but not pleasing. However, the meal of the moment was more important and the “meat" was put away and forgotten. Came the next morning and the prospect of cooking bear meat was even less pleasing, so wife decided to canvass the neigh­ bours. As she started out with the offering, she decided that for such a large parcel of meat, it was very light and perhaps she should have a look at this unusual food. It was unusual all right — the “bear meat” tossed so casually on the table was a beauti­ ful hand-made leather purse — intended as a sur­ prise gift. It was indeed a “surprise". The question is — What would have happened had she actually given the parcel away? We shiver to think! What Other* Say: First Thing* First For untold centuries parents have been raising their children, for better or for worse, according to the individual and the times. There came a period recently when it was felt by some intellectual peda­ gogues that the school should be the proper mentor. The church always claimed special rights in train- • ing the child. As so-called juvenile delinquency deve­ loped, poice authorities and all kinds of welfare groups inserted their claims to raise the child — someone else’s child.Now a Canadian Welfare Council Committee, meeting in Montreal, places the responsibility where biology and common sense had put it in the first place—on the shoulders of parents. The cycle is complete. The committee added, though, that certain needs might have been met by cotlcctivation.Whether the parent is or is not qualified to train his child is another matter. The essential is that the first responsibility rests upon the parent. It may be that reformers will have to work on the parents first. (London Free Press) A Pond May Become A Feature of Every Farm Due to the work- of the Upper Thames Valley Conservation Authority in Perth, Middlesex and Oxford Counties, more and more land owners are becoming interested in the conservation of water resources, and at least half a dozen farmers are actively planning or -building farm ponds of one kind or another. The idea behind the farm pond, once deemed in this country to be a handicap, is that surface water is retained in a convenient spot for use on the farm in dry seasons, and to assure a water supply in surface and deeper wells by deep seepage.The idea is not new, as anyone who has travelled in European countries will admit. There are ponds on any of the farmsteads in thise countries, some dating from Roman times. The firm pond has come to be regarded with favor in many parts of the United States where the pond not only provides ample water for stock and other uses, but is a means of propagating fish and game and beautification of the farm. It is considered that a half acre pond is sufficient for the ordinary hundred acre farm, in this district where impervious clay underlies most of the top soil. wA demonstration conservation farm is being pre­ pared under T.V.A. guidance in each of the above three counties and probably next year residents will be invited to visit these farms to see for them­ selves what has been done.(St. Marya Journal-Argus) Noise is Anti-Sdcial Mechanical progress may reach a climax when the psychological hazards arising from its noise begins to outweigh the material convenience it pro­vide*. Children who do their homework with a radio going full blast are showing some signs of adapt­ing themselves to the new condition. -But man­kind's capacity for further evolutionary adaption? is limited; and it ia doubtful whether we can manu­ facture a satisfactory defense against noisy distur­bances before the progress of mechanical cacophony renders us deaf. Automobiles, for instance, are recognized a* be­ing dangerous machines, even when operating most quietly. An operator who drives with his horn in­ stead of his brain intensifies the danger of this type of transport Heereates, an additional daylight hazard no less dangerous than the glare of high headlight beams’at night The indiscriminate clamor of some «»reet car gongs defeats its own purpose. It becomes a confusing nuisance instead of. a rea­ sonable warning. Too often in chi* city the motorman and automobile driver seek to transfer their own responsibility for safe driving practices by scar­ ing the daylights out of pedestrians and other vehi­cular traffic in front of them.Then there is the telephone addict who cannot remember numbers, but calls four or live wrong ones before being driven to the directory — which he should have consulted in the first place. All un­ necessary noise is anti-social, and the sum of such offences is a menace to civilisation. We can hnvn no pride In a culture which is raucon* either in its music or in its hoor-to-hour activities. And we tend to lose our social instincts when we fail to realize the defenselessness of fellowmen against din and clatter which cannot be shut out from the ears as unpleasant sights can be barred from vision.

Law does not eompell husband and I wife to live together- Paris Shut Out Local Juniors A 4 to 0 trouncing handed out to the Ingersoll juniors by Paris at Hro- peler Monday night completed the black hockey week for Ingersoll, all the teams going without wins. A fault in the machinery caused a poor ice surface which slowed down the game somewhat but the major factor in i the local's defeat was their own goal- shyness and a weak defense. 13 pen­alties were handed out by referee Bill Holman, seven of them going to the locals and Bartram getting a share of three minors. Paris, never seriously threatened by the dislocated IngepwII attack, lit the red light in the first canto to open their account, Leach scoring on a semi-screen shot and though the Checsetownerg threw in several determined spurts Duncan kept the Paris nets intact. It was not until the half-way mark in the game that the Cockrams man­aged thei# second tally, as Buck took a centre from Scott. Paton stopped a hard one over the eye iii the sec­ond stanza, six stitches going in to close the cut and net duties were han­ ded to Bummer Connor who played a sound game even with the occasional lack of support. The final touches came at 15.20 and 17.05 in the lai t period/ The teams: Ingersoll, goal, Paton; penal ties: McKee, Leach, Johnson, Mickler.

Get your bearings and make each movement count. (4) Thrash the feet vigorously be­hind you to prevent the body from jack-knifing under the ice, and to help ward off chill.(5) In thie horizontal position, it is possible to gradually crawl for­ ward until your hips are at the edge of the ice.(6) Swerving slightly, you may now roil on to the ice surface. Keep rolling until you are away from the insecure ire at the edge of the hole. (7) If the ice breaks ahead of you under your weight, continue un­ til you reach either thicker ice or the shore. ■ TO MAKE AN ICE RESCUE Rescue of a person who has fallen through ice may be done by a single individual with proper equipment; or by a small group when equipment is not available. One person must be equipped with skates or creepers to prevent being pulled in also.Use of a reaching assist such as a, rone, long pole or branch, a plank, a ladder or a ring-buoy.Plank or ladder may be pushed within reach of the victim, enabling him to climb out. This distributes his weight over a larger ice surface. If he cannot climb out, have him hang on to the plank or ladder while yon pull him out. You must keep low on the ice yourself, and braec your­self by wearing skates or creepers. Rope with a knot in the end may bo thrown to the victim which he can grasp and be pulled from the water.

Introduced by Lion Leigh Snider and thanked by Lion A. W. Waring, the speaker. outlined the birth and spread of the communistic doctrines and gave instance# of how it was be­ing infiltrated into this country in spite of people's, “It couldn”t happen here,” statements.

Various Tales The, name of Ingersoll has been cropping up in various publications ; recently. I In the Maclean's of Dec. 1, in i an article, "The Inside Story of 1 Gordon Sinclair," written by the I famed reporter himself, his wife is quoted on Gordon and a meeting 1 with. tli« late Aimee Semple Mac- ' pherson, fabulous evangelist, who I was born near Salford, The excerpt 1 reads: < "He (Gordon), had passes- to everything and thought it smart to ' bring showgirls home here. Had a ' Cadillac, too, and clothes that shone ' up like forest fires. He still wean J clown clothes and has at least 20 Jackets. One. day he landed in here with a big redheaded woman. We had a little car then besides this 1 Seen Cadillac with all the chrome. 1 ite day I was driving the green ' car so he comes in and says he wants ' it because this redhead is Aimce Macphqpon, the big evangelist, and he’s driving her to Ingersoll where । she Was born, or something. “Well I say he's plumb mad and if this is Aimee Macpherson I’m1 Cleopatra. The big redhead laughs like crazy and they go out in the kitchen where she whips up a few Martinis and I'm blowed if she didn’t turn out to be Mrs. Macpherson after all.” ) Then in tne new book “Andy Clarke and his Neighborly News," (Ryerson), is the following para­ graph: “When the directors of the Ing- craqJL fair got alt steamed up over the fact that no pumpkins had come in for the exhibit, they found a 14- year-old boy, Doug. McKenzie, had a patch. It was doubtful if they woul be good enough for exhibition but would he bring in a couple any­ way? Doug, went out and hauled in the Brat two that he camp on. At the fair they were weighed. One scaled 78 pounds and the other 136 pounds. Our informant writes: “J don’t know what sort of record he might have hung up if he had taken time to pick out a couple of big ones." Then, in the book, "The Story of Canada,” written specially for boys and girls, and just in at Carr’s, it describes the visit of “Young Seth and his father", to the provincial fair, in Toronto, in 1852. The para­ graph reads: , ,"In the centre of the hall, on a raised platform, stood the largest cheese I have ever laid eye# on. A placard announced that it weighed 658 lbs. and was made in the dairy of Mr. Ranney, a farmer in Oxford County. This giant cheese, along with several smaller ones that stood beside it, were said to be a part of the produce of Mr. Ranney's herd of 126 milk cattle.” Merchants Given Break by Hydro For Yule Rush Ingersoll's merchants are getting a bit of a break from the Ontario Hydro during the Christmas season, according to an announcement by E.

Ontario, Thursday, December 15, 1949 STARS DINE WITH THE BOYS !PP«rThame* Valley Authority visited the Cecil Riddle Farm, north of Beach­ville, where Mr. Riddle ha« himself laid out his hlbv'Ae farm in contour strips, they learned a new wrinkle in the matter of accomplishing the farm lay-out for this method of till­age. Mr. Biddle in at sad of hiring an engineer to take levels and mark out hia contour lines, simply bought a 12. spirit level, bolted it to bin tractor battery box and nutting histractor into low drove cross-wise on the hillsides of his farm, laying out the lands.The idea worked so well that Mr. Biddle found he has practically stopped run-off from fields with even a fifteen per cent slope, which are plowed in this maiyier. He alter­nates the strips witbs hay, alfalfa roots or other kinds Of crops and finds that the system gives him larger yields. He still retains p>is- anent fences on his farm, although the fields are larger than usually found on the average farmstead. Mr. Riddle also built himAelf a farm pond of one-eighth acre size. The operation took a bulldozer just eight hours to complete, scooping out a hollow in a small water course and throwing up an earthen dam. The pond is now filled with fresh water to a depth of over five feet.

Ontario citizens are reminded now of a few simple helpful rules to safeguard their health, and that of others. Prevention of the common cold is the responsibility of all, and if everyone plays his part much unnecessary illness, expense and discomfort may be avoided. With the holidayjf^ason looming ahead, when so much happiness depends on everyone feeling fit, why run the risk of "catching cold-’—-or letting members of your family face that danger? In the interest of parents and families, the Ontario Department of Health recommends every Ontario citizen to study the common sense precautions suggested below and act upon them. Five Simple Precautions Take plenty of rest. Avoid becoming unduly tired. Endeavour to follow a well-balanced diet. Avoid becoming wot, chilled or over­ heated. If clothing becomes wet, H should be changed as quickly as pottlble. It was quite a night Dec. 5 when players of the Ingersoll Y’s Men’s juvenile baseball team met the big-leaguers at a father-and-son banquet held in their honor in the Presbyterian Church basement. Lefty Judd, Hank Biassatti and Tommy White came down to talk to them.

We face national decay if we con­tinue to have groups, feeling as they Mr. Dewan, introduced by Ken Daniel, former Conservative M.P. for Oxford, puaised Calf Club mem­ bers for their “initiative and en­thusiasm" which he said always meant success, and he expressed the hope” you will attack life’s prob­lems as you grow up with the same aggressiveness and enthusiasm.""Right now," he said, “Canada is enjoying great prosperity, with a high standard of living. But there are those promoters of dissension who would seek to upset this won­ derful state of affairs. They want the very utmost in security, but at the same time demand more and more earnings for shorter and shor­ter hours of labor. Those two condi­tions can't hold, so perhaps things aren't really so well Perhaps we are sitting on a precipice beyond which lie all sorts of dangers.

Therej are toirmany schemes these days fori devolping loafers and the thriftless I at the expense of the thrifty. |Noting that more and more pen-j sion schemes for workers were being ■ demanded, Mr. Dewan said he sometimes felt that governmental were doing too much appeasing in j that direction, rather than in forth­right action insisting that nothing was being given away; people would have to work for what they wanted. More people were needed to preach the doctrine that hard work and enthusiasm were' the way* to success and security. “We have a great heritage—let's work to preserve it," ho asserted. "Even more obnoxious to me," he went on, "are these people who come to Canada from other lands with the feeling they have to work only a few- hours, then have everything handed to them on a platter. When we prefer idleness to labor, we are not loyal to our heritage. Many groups in this country are doing more to ruin than to build Canada."Mr. Dewan said that if Canada was to become greater and greater, “we must put aside some of the pre­judices found in our national fab­ ric," He referred, for example, to feeling between Frecnh-speaking and English-speaking Canadians.Bauhin Prejudices “We must put’ aside out ill-con­ceived prejudices and hastily formed judgments and try to learn more of the admirable qualities of these people, the French- - We want our young to grow up learning to love, not to hate.

High Barry McKeon There were copious quantities of erratic scores bowled Thursday night, when the Sacred Heart club took over Bradfield’s lanes for the even- lag. Tht most outstanding of all the titrspiring trundlera was Joe Hunt and Wilbert Stephenson with their games of 310 and 301 respectively. If guessing were permissable, I would hazard a suggestion to Johnny Shand. ■ that t think these two are out to lift that load from your shoulders, (high single, high triple and high average).Joe’s mighty efforts were to no avail as the "Cubs” captained by Con Ring wandered nonchalantly away with 5 points to our two? Joe Story, (and his sore thumb) helped their cause with his game of 248 and Jim Mitchell with his 245 helped also.Frank McNamara, his “Woodys”, his opponents, the whole club and even Mr. Bradfield were pleased as punch (and surprised) to see them take FIVE points last night. The "Leafs" captained by Mary Dunn were the victims of Frank's wrath, I had understood the “Woodys" were content to stay where they were (in the cellar) until after the new year. Good luck to you Frank.Doris O’Meara and her "Hawks" must have gotten their Irish up be­cause they Waded through the Ind­ians for 5 points to Jack Warden's two. Fred McDermott's "Giants" took another lacing from the "Cards" captained by Marty Williams, by a 5 to 2 Kcore. Peter Giovanetti rolled 263, Florence Dorland bowled 213, but its just one of those things. Isn’t it? Johnny Shand's “Bears” downed the "Rockets" manned by Leona Mc- Noah 5 to 2.Respectable scores were bowled by the following: Marge Dunn 201; Nora Wituik 217; Bill Taylor 244; Tom MacMillan 258; Mike MacMillan 274; Fr.

Coughs and Sneezes Spread Diseases M<*»t of the ailments in thia climate of ours are spread by droplets. If anyone imerzos in your face you will know what droplets are well enough. Rut there are many hundreds more than can be seen by the naked eye. The point about these droplets is not just that they are wet and un- pleaMmt. They contain thousands upon thousands of germa. And these germs spread any disease that the sneezer or tougher Is suffering from.It is important to remember that such infections as colds, influenza, brodchitia, pneumonia, the infectious diseases of childhood, tuberculosis, cerebro-spinal meningitis and many others—may be caused by germa spread in this way.Germs are living things and, like I other living things, have their own peculiar habits. The germs that cause disease like living on human beings, and unfortunately for us in doing this they make people ill and often kill them. In the epidemic of 1918-19, for example, the inflocnta germ kil­led more than 20 million people in Its world-wide onslaught.The main problem facing the germs la how to get from one human body into another. The unbroken skin forma a stout barrier against germs. So it is not surprising they choose such an easy way In as the mouth, none and throat. There they settle down and multiply, and when they are ready to attack somebody else, they irritate the nose and throat BO that they are blown out into the air by a cough or sneeze. In this way they ean easily spread from a care­less cougher or sneezer to an unsus­ pecting friend, acquaintance or stran­ger.This is serious for the nation aa well as the individual because a man or woman with a bad cold normally has to lay off work for a day or two at least, and when lots of men and women catch colds a large number of working hours will be lost. On an average, two days' work a year are lost by each worker on account of colds and influenza. It is therefore in the national inter- rat, a< well as in that at the individ­ual, that everything possible should be done to stop these germa getting out of one person's throat Into that of another.This can be done in n number at ways. But the golden rule is that no one should cough or sneeze without putting his handkerchief over his mouth or nose. This is especially im­portant in tranu, buses, tralA, thea­tres and other crowded plac*. The handkerchief will stop m oslof the germs from getting into themir and so into the nose and throat of other people. When you have a bad cold you should use disposable tissues. If you are developing a cold or in­fluenza you really ought to go to bed at once. By doing so you will reduce the risk of complications, yon will avoid Infecting others, and you will cut short your period off work. Whatever your circumstances, do all you can to prevent these germs get­ting out of your month, nose and throat on to the man, woman or child ndxt to you. Make sure your child- Iren are trained to do the same. (National Breweries, Ltd., Review) Thank You, Thank You Fighting Start, Barely Finish Inters Lose 11 to 2 After a fighting start at Hespeler Thursday night the Intermediate Sportsmen sank to ns 11 to 2 lacing by the Hespeler Legionaires that was hardly indicative of the fight put up by the Ingersoll crew, and due largely to a lax defense.For the first 30, minutes every­thing seemed fine and dandy. Don Shultz sank a Hespeler counter at 2.04 in the first stanza and his team­ mates hung on to their slender lead through a scrappy first period when Ingersoll showed plenty of fight but no dues when they reached the Hespeler blue Jine. Orval “Bear” Huras snarled at Shultz and Dopfer once or twice but it was a period when the ainbin was deserted. Ted Boone, who starred through­out for the local six, put them back on the map after the clock had ticked just 43 times in the second stanza after cruising gently all round the Hespeler net and through the defense. Then, for ten minutes both teams showed good hockey and for a while Ingersoll's chances seemed rosy. At 10.32, with Boone sitting a minor for holding, Bob Shultz tallied for Hespeler and the homesters began to gain the upper hand as Ingersoll started slowing down. They really bogged down in the last five minutes and the defense let three attacks get] by them • to add goals. It was 5 to 1 for Hespeler at the end. Gerry Stone tallied Ingersoll’s sec­ond with Huras getting the assist while Hespeler were one short at the 5.32 mark of the third and yet an­other Ingersoll defensive slip let B. Shultz sink the sixth for Hespeler. With Huras warming the penalty bench two more came in.at 9.43 and 10.37. He got back just* in time to| see another hit the twines at 10.50. and from then on Ingersoll never' lifted their skates again, Norm Dyeri sinking the final two for Hespeler at' 12.01 and 19.38. | Boone was the one bright light in the Ingersoll attack, several times1 slipping past the Hespeler rear-guard ( but had no support.

By trade, St Paul was a tentmaker, We Knew You Cot^d Do It! Three weeks ago, a few people in Ingersoll and district had a dream—artificial ice here this winter. Some people scoffed—it couldn’t be done—but the enthusiastic few KNEW it could, KNEW that the people of Ingersoll and its friendly neighbor­ing commimities would back a project so much in the interests of all, young and old.* And You Did! In a week or less, kiddies and grownups will be enjoying healthful sport and recre­ ation on artificial ice in the community centre- This is a tribute to the unselfish community-mindedness of a lot of people. No better Christmas gift could have been given to any community. We, your canvassers, pause and lift our hats to the many people who have made this possible. Signed, YOUR CANVASSER.

The wheels were of wood with steel rims, and very high to give the axles maximum clearance for often stumps and atones were left in the centre of the road, in hopes that sooner or later some irate freighter with several span of oxen, would pull out the stumps after smashing a wagon wheel on them once too often.

At one time the road-bed was paved with planks and was called, naturally enough, the“Plank Road."

The Hagies built a hotel at the cross-roads now known as “Hagies Corners'', between Ingersoll and Salford. It is built of brick, (poss­ibly because of clay pita nearby), end still stands today. It was known as the “Wiseman House”, at one time, and was the noon stop for the Port Burwell stage.

In the open country, travel sometimes stopped for days for the creeks were un- fordable where there were no bridges. In the heat of the summer the dust rose behind the horses in great clouds, and covered the pass­engers, who were also harried by flies and great swarms of mos­ quitoes.Winter brought drifted roads, and passengers dressed in great buffalo und coonskin coats. Lady passengers were given footwarmers; these were metal boxes, which were filled with hot coals at every stage stop.The coaching inns were spaced out along the road, generally at half-day driving intervals, but short stops were made at every post office, for the coach carried the mail and as usually all the mail was carried in one bag, it hud to be dumped out on the floor and sorted over to find the letters for that community. The post office was also the local barroom and inn, and since a good deal of the inn-keeper’s business came from the coaches stopping taere, the drivers were always given free drinks in return for the cus­ tomers they brought in. In places where the inns and drinks were too close together, the driver was some­ times unable eventually to get up to his high seat on the coach top. If one of the passengers had the skill and nerve to drive the horses, the-coach might go on, but if no one volun­ teered, n stop was made for the night. , the Old Stage Road, in the early j 1800’a. An army major and his , negro batman were travelling by coach to London, with a large quan­ tity of gold for the army payroll. East of Beachville the coach was stopped and robbed, but there is rea­ son to believe that the major was in cahoots with the robbers, for his negro batman was never seen again. He was probably killed to keep him from talking, and his body buried. The gold was supposed to have been buried near Karns Hill, and for many years a great amount of dig- i ging was done by local people in an j attempt to find it. Several men from Centreville got tired of haphazard • digging and went to consult a Gypsy fortune teller. Sho told them ■ exactly where to dig to find the treasure, but warned them not to ; speak a word while they dug, or ; they would never find it. They start­ ed to dig a big hole and just as 1 they thought they should be reaching ; the gold, a rurj-away horse and wagon dashed through the trees, i One of the men inadvertantly spoke, । and they always said afterwards that 1 was the only reason they were not I successful. Another story told is I about an old empty barn that was never there, frequently used as a hang-out and a good place to cache a bottle of whiskey. One old-timer needed a drink, early one morning, and went to the barn to see if he could find a bottle. Somebody had dug up the earth floor during the night and he could see where they they had liften out a box front the hole, for the imprints were still in the dirt. Who they were, or what was in the box, nobody ever found out. Officially, the payroll gold was never found; but strangely enough, not too long after the robbery, the large mortgages on several local farm were paid off in full. In gold! The earliest coaching inns were very crude affairs of log walk and shake roofs. The only thing that made them habitable in the winter was the great abundance of fire wood, stacked in great piles behind the inn, and hauled In three foot lengths, to be burned in great fire­ places built of stone and clay. Some of the fireplaces had no chimneys and the smoke went out through a a hole in the roof, or between the rough uneven shake shingles. So much smoke stayed in the peal: of the roof, before finding its way out, that hams and sides of bacon were hung there to be smoke-cured, and certainly no flies ever bothered them. If meat was left there too long before being used, it was often found-to be as smoke blackened as charcoal and as hard as a rock. AU I the cooking was done over the fire- place in iron pots, swung on a crane, ' and as few early inns had more than ' two rooms, the men passengers gen- Find Pesticides Increase Crops Due to the increasing acceptance of modern pest control methods by Canadian farmers and to unexpected outbreaks of destructive insects in certain localities, volumes of pesti­ cides used i tv Canada during the past year showed a marked increase. New insecticides were well recei­ ved and proved highly effective for the purpose they were intended. Par. athion, for example, was very suc­ cessful in controlling the European red mite which had plagued B.C. and eastern Canadian orchards for years. The new wireworm control product, “Benesan", introduced during 1949 in western grain growing areas, gave excellent results and promises re­lief from the ravages of thia insect. was well received by dairy farmers as a barn and livestock spray to con­ trol the so-called super-fly (DDT resistant!) and its use is expected to expand in 1950, J. G. Hastings of C-I-L’g chemicals division predicts.Mr Hastings said that Canadian agriculturalists are becoming more and more conscious of the economic value of pest control chemicals. Had it not been for such chemicals, grain grasshopper plague. The fruit crop would not have been so bountiful If the red mite had gone unchecked. The potato crop would have shown a con­siderable decrease had it not been for lethal fungicides to combat insects and fungous diseases. Grain production was increased by millions of bushels by the use of the selective weedkiller 2, 4-D. The use of this chemical hag greatly increased and its price to the consumer has de­ clined sharply. Salvation Army Asks List of Needy Salvation Army officials are busyin Ingersoll and District in connec­ tion with their Annual Christmas Cheer effort. According to local Sal­vation Army officers, it Is their desire that no needy family be forgotten thia Christmas and they are especi­ally anxious that no child be disap­ pointed. They feel confident that with the aid of local organizations and individuals they can at least be sure that all deserving children are sup­ plied with toys. Captain Bernard Acton, local Com­manding Officer, states they would like all requests for -hampers and other Christmas Cheer be given im­mediately so proper investigation of all cases can be made and so Salva­ tion Army workers will not find it necessary to tort and deliver food, candy , toy. at the last minute. Any­ one who knows -of needy families should contact the local Salvation Army Corps immediately. It is also requested that all local organizations and individuals who expect to help the Salvation Army in this worth­while work to let them know as soon ae possible as to just what they will be giving, so that plana can be made accordingly. repeated the Home and School jrayer and the motto. Mrs. Taylor, Mrs. Dorsey's co-worker and editor of the National Home and School magazine, explained the rules and regulations and Mrs. Tear explained the work of the council. Additional officers were appoint­ ed and the executive now stands as follows: President, Mrs. W. Thomp­ son ; vice-presidents, Mn. Harley Cousins and John Nadalin; secre­ tary, Mrs. Ray Eiliolt;- treasurer, Mrs. Gordon Faber; executive mem­ bers, Ray Elliott Donald Crawford, Mrs. P. Wright, Mrs. McKay, and B. A. Finch; membership committee, Mrs. Gordon Holden, Mrs. Thorn­ ton and Mrs. John Nadalin. Mru Dorsey conducted the installation of officers. It was decided on motion of Mrs, Ray Elliott and Mrs. Harley Cousins, that the constitution be accepted. The meetings will be held monthly on the first Monday even­ ing. Art Display At Library Showing at the library until the end of this month are exhibitions of paintings from the Ontario Society of Artiste which display a variety of subjects and colorings well worth a few moments attention. Betty Craw­ ford, librarian, has expressed herself as well satisfied with them although she bemoans the fact that there are no local artists represented. The "modernistic” attack is show­ ing in only two of the exhibits, and then only in a light degree- They are "Sonata” by Jack Martin, and "City Pigeons", by Rody Courtice. The only group painting there, “The Three Sisters” by Dorothy Stevens, is quite striking and a still life, “Lilacs”, by Grace Coombs, displays a sensitive appreciation of color. The stormy ocean i8 the subject of two artists and Rowley Murphy shows the petulant sea at its stormiest in his "Ontario’s White Horses". A rat­her more tranquil approach, and ligh­ ter coloring is seen in Peter Shep­pard's “Tide".The one, however, which seems to be attracting ag much comment as any other is a brilliant merging of green, and dark shades in Winchell Price’s, “After Showers”. l^era are boxes of beauty packages full of promise for bath-time relaxation.

PHONE - 647 j|ist Make Sure Water Is Off When you do your own servicing and repairing of plumbing you save money in two ways—the cost of the work and also the cost of the water that may leak through a faulty fix­ture. Before beginning any plumbing re­ pairs, make sure that the water in the line to be repaired is turned off. In some plumbing installations, each line in the house has a shutoff valve in it; in others there is one main shutoff valve back of the water meter. To replace a washer in a compres­sion faucet, the cap nut must be un­ screwed from the faucet body and the handle, stem and other parts re­moved as an assembly with the cap nut The screw holding the washer iri place on the lower end of the' stem can then be unscrewed and the washer replaced. Examine the condition of the seat in the faucet body. If it is rough it may be dressed with a special seat dresser, which is inexpensive and ob­tainable at most hardware stores. To replace the rubber ball washer in the Fuller-ball faueet, the complete fau­cet must be removed since the washer is replaced from the bsex. A toilet flush tank may leak be­cause the water supply shutoff valve does not close when the floater is to the proper height, or because the flush valve does not dose the flush tank outlet. The flush valve uses a rubber ball or cap which is held in place on the tank outlet by the water pressure until the flush lever ia tripped. It is easily replaced after unscrewing it from the brass lift rod to which It is attached. Over a period of time, accumula­ tions of grease, dirt or other waste may tend to clog the traps under the sink, lavatory or tub. One method of cleaning makes use of strong chem­icals (obtainable in packaged form) that dissolves the waste. Another method of cleaning is to remove the cleanout plug at the hot- tom of the trap or, where there is no plug, by unscrewing the two nut* that hold the trap in place and re­moving the entire trapr In either case, a wire can be used to scrap out the sediment. A plunger called a “plumber’ fnend” can be used to break the sediment free and open a drain when there is no secondary opening to an overflow outlet. Partly fill the bowl with water, place the rubber cap over the drain, and work the handle up and down. This creates alternate suction and pressure that clears the obstruction.

Don’t Donald Campbell Plans Speed Try ENGLAND—Donald Campbell, 28- year-old son of the late Sir Malcolm Campbell, is planning another at­tempt on his father's world water speed record. The mark of 141.74 miles an hour for a measured mile run was set at Coniston, England, in 1939.Young Campbell fell rix miles an hour short of the record at Coniston in August. He is using the Bluebird II, the same boat used by his father, which he fitted with a new 2400-h.p. Rolls Royce engine before the summer trials. The gear box was wrecked in an attempt. “We have rebuilt the wrecked gear box”, Campbell said, “and arc ex­ perimenting with the propeller and main shaft, and a foreed-feed oil lubricating system for the gears. A new hull would cost me $19,600 and a new engine would cost as much ag­ain; so, at present, I propose to use the same engine in the Bluebird."Campbell said he would make his first trial run* early in the Spring on a lake at Coniston.

Dr. Irving Langmuir, who plan* the General Electric rain-making re­search, estimates that a spherical pellet of dry Ice about one-sixth Inch in diameter will fall for 130 seconds before evaporation. During this fall it wputd condense 80 milligrams of water vapor into ten million billion ice nuclei. If these could be scattered throughout a sufficiently large vol­ume of cloud, they would produce n snowfall of 100JIO0, tons. Of course, such a distribution of Ice crystals from one pellet of dry lee is quite impossible. Production of ice nuclei by granu­ lated dry ice ean be used for other purposes. Canadian experimenters ing super-cooled stratus cloud! But a yet there is no recorded incident where dry ice has been used to clear an airport In wintertime of zero- zero weather. Other men suggest that seeding of young thunderheads might prevent the accumulation of hail­stone* Inside them—that the energy of a potential hailstorm con be dls- sapated before it gets under way.There is one thing certain. A new science of "cloud physics” has been established. While ft will not bring true the dreams of the magic rain­maker, it will almost certainly un­ravel the whole story of how rain­ drops and the all important ice nuclei are produced in nature.(From “The Roundel") F., when caused by evaporation from ice. la 3.8 grams per cubic metre; by evaporation from water it is 3.9. At tower temperatures the difference is greater. In this relatively small difference lies the secret to the pro­duction of the rain and snow which fall by the billions of tons each year over our country.Inside a cloud where ice crystals are mixed with water droplets, the air is thoroughly saturated, but, so far as the ice crystals are concerned, the air is overloaded or super-satur­ ated. The result is that vapor con­denses on the ice crystals and they grow m size. This in turn takes some water vapor out of the air, and the water droplets are allowed to eva­porate a little more to keep the air saturated. In thia way, crystals of snow fall earthward at the expense of the water droplets in the cloud. These ideas, first expounded by Bergeron, can be tested out by any pilot. For one thing in our latitudes it is almost impossible to find snow or rain falling from a cloud which does not reach above the freezing line. This corresponds with Berger­on’s idea that crystals of ice must be present for the water to con­dense in increasing amounts. Should a pitot ever notice rain falling from a cloud which doesn’t reach up to the freezing line, the observation will be very useful to meteorologists. Indeed, to the tropics, rain is known to occur in moderate amounts where the rain cloud is wanner than 32 deg- ree8 F. Temperatures at various heights through the doud, the exact time, and the location, would be pert­ inent data on such an occasion.More evidence of the important role of ice crystals can be seen in the possibly ATTENTION PLEASE!

Weather was too big to bring into the laboratory.Dr. Tor Bergeron, a Norwegian weatherman, had provided the idea for “seeding” clouds back in the early 1930’s. Until that time science could give no satisfactory explanation of why raindrops could grow to such a size that they would fall to the ground. They could explain nothing clouds was commonplace. He remin­ded meteorologists that water and ice behave differently when they are allowed to saturate air with water vapor. This has been known by scien­ tists for a good long time.

Just when rain can be noticed to start falling from the base of the cloud, the towering turrets 'of the storm cloud Jose their sharp white popcorn appearance. A fibrous text­ure associated with ice crystals cloud becomes plainly visible. The rain starts just when the ice crystals be­ gin to form.As early as 1930, experiments were attempted to produce the necessary crystals inside a doud of water droplets. There were further attempts in 1935, but success was not attained until 1946 when Dr. Vincent Schaef­ fer, of the General Electric Research Laboratories in Schenectady, sprink­led dry ice oil clouds. This ice, which is frozen carbon-dioxide, is at a tem­perature of 110 degrees F. or less. As these extremely cold particles drift through the doud, they cause water vapor to condense as very min­ute crystals of ice. Each of these serves as a nucleus for the deposit of more ice at the expense of other water droplets in the cloud. The larger ice crystals float downward to fail as snow, or, if it warm enough near the ground, as rain.These first successful experiments have led to intensive research in many countries. The economic value of a sure-fire method of rain-making is a glittering prize. Leading the at­tempts to master the technique is Dr. Schaeffer, whose imaginative genius has brought the awwetorms into the laboratory. Vincent Schaef­ fer did this very simply, too. To­gether with the complex equipment to Ite found at the research laboratory, he installed an ordinary, home deep­freeze unit In thia was his atmos­phere where he was to produce snow, to photograph the growth of snow­flakes, and to show that it takes more than cold weather td produce ice crystals in ordinary rain clouds.The United States Weather Bur­eau, under Dr. Rosa Gunn, aimed its strategy at determining whether or not artificially-produced rain could be made to fall in amounts of econo­mic value to the country. They set up operations in WiUmington, Dele- ware, and over the course of year compiled an extremely valuable set of observations. " In Australia and in Hawaii cloud- seeding experiments got under way quickly. In tropical and sub-tropical climates the problems were different, the air was wanner and held more moisture, but the freezing level was higher. It's Loaded But HAVE YOU GOT YOUR Stuffin Bread ....

S.PHONE 204 began as the National Research Coun­cil, the Meteorological Division of the Department of Transport, and the R.C.A.F. worked out a co-operative plan of attack. Experiments were to be carried out at Arnprior, Ontario, and Suffield, Alberta. To be used in the project was the latest type of radar equipment for the detection of rain. The usual observations of rain by observers on the ground were not sufficiently accurate to prove conv­incingly that the rainfall developed from seeding ice crystals. Ahead of them also is the job of finding out just how much dry ice should be used to give the best results. Present re­ports are contradictory. It was seen early in the research that if rain was successfully produced by cloud­ seeding, only to find that natural rainfall also occurred in the area in question, then iittie had been proved concerning the value of the cloud­seeding method. However, Dr. Irving P. Krick, a Californian meteorologist who is widely nown as the man who sella weather forecasts, felt that even if ruin could only be produced on norm­ally rainy days there was still a lot of value to it. He cited the case of the California irrigation reservoirs which have been operating well under capacity because of lack of rainfall. “We can’t make it rain when the air is dry," he argued, “but let's see if we cant make it rain harder and over more ground when the weather situation is favorable.” His experi­ ments are still in progress.Everyone agrees that cloud-seeding is hopeless unless there is an ample supply of moisture available. For this reason there is no hope of using dry ice to bringrain to a drought- ridden area. If the Western Prairies lack rainfall because the dry wester­lies sweep across the district, no amount of seeding in the thin cumulus or altocumulus clouds of. the Polar Pacific area will bring relief. But just the same there are Iota of useful ways to take advantage of "artificial" rain in other less difficult situations. Let's take a look at what the various experimenters have found out. Down in Australia the rain-makers are very pleased with the results and claim success in producing copious amounts of rain in localized showers and under favorable weather condi­ tions. On the other hand, the United States experiments at WiUmington gave tittle indication that rain am­ ounts of any consequence were pos­sible in that area. In Canada, the pre­ liminary tests have been more hope­ful, and, providing the proper cloud conditions are selected, it i8 not very difficult to produce a little rainfall. The experiments, which are under the immediate supervision of Mr. J. L. Orr, of the National Research Coun­cil, have also indicated that the spr­inkling of dry ice can modify clouds considerably. Water droplet clouds can be dissapated and ice crystal clouds can be formed in the right sort of atmosphere.There are several private concerns attempting to test the value of the seeding experiments. “Rain-maker pilots” have operated sporadically at various points in Canada and the United States. Tommy Fox, of Asso­ciated Airways in Edmonton, tells this story; “W® took off from the Edmonton Airport at approximately 1925 hrs. and climbed to 19,200 feet We sure above the top of a large cumulus type cloud at 19,000 feet and seeded it with approximately 17 lbs. of dry ice. I flew through the edge of this higher portion of the cloud, flying toward the sun, and it seemed to be formed by ice crystals.“We seeded the cloud at approxi­mately 2000 hrs., and at thia time it was located about 8 miles west of the Edmonton Airport. The cloud was travelling in a northerly direction and by the time we had descended to an altitude 9f 5,000 feet above »ea level, it wasoiocated considerably north of EdmOnton. It seemed at thia time to be giving solid rain over a width of approximately 15 miles. We checked available sources the next day and received information that they hud had showers at Morinville and Legal between 2000 and 2030 hrs, and that they had .received one-half hour’s heavy rain at Clyde commencing at about 2030 hrs. We feel reasonably sure that the rain from this cloud was caused by the seeding with dry ice, since at the time of our experi­ments the clouds in this area were dSsoapating rapidly, and it would seem there would be lessening tend­ency for them to give off precipita­tion,"Scientists, however, arc reluctant to claim the seeding of clouds is success­ ful as a rain-making routine. They do point to several Important slic­ cesses in the unfolding of the mystery of rain production. One of the most fundamental of these is the finding in the General Electric laboratories that water droplets won’t freeze by them­selves unless they arc cooled to 102.2 degrees F-But we are accustomed to seeing water freeze at 32degrees F. What does this new idea mean? Well, most of us who have seen ice form on the leading edge of an aircraft wing know that water droplets can be cooled below 32 degrees F. without freezing; then in collision with the surface of an aircraft the super­cooled water changes to treacherous solid ice. In the laboratory, water has been cooled to 101.3 degrees F. and it has still remained a liquid. There ia convincing evidence that water vapor by itself will not con­dense to form'ice crystals unless the temperature is 102.2 degrees F. or Jess. If the temperature ia higher than thia, foreign nuclei or ice cry­ stals have to be already present.To demonstrate this idea, Schaeffer used his deep-freezer to cool air down to it saturation point. He found then he could produce a mist of ice cry­stals when he waved a very cold wire through the air—but only if the wire was at' least 102.2 degrees F. He therefore claims that one sure-fire method of producing the all import­ant nuclei for snowflakes to grow on is to cool a cloud down to this low temperature.But he has found other ways as well. One of these is to "fool” the water vapor by using silver iodide crystals. These, like ice crystals, are six-sided in structure, and each serves I as the centre at the snow crystal which “forms around it.
