Dump Many Tons Of Rock on Bank To Halt Erosion Ingersoll's new Thames channel got a real testing last week as a re-1 suit of the unseasonal flooding, andso far as eliminating flood threats is concerned, proved itself, according1 to Gordon Pittock, Ingersoll's TVArepresentative.

There was no sign of flooding ct Stones', usually the first to feel it. In fact, it was stated in previous years, if the water had been that high Stones’ pumps would have been working over-time. They weren’t re­quired this time. The only trouble that cropped up was the erosion of the south bank over a.i 8,000-ft. sector from Centre­ville east, where no rock rip-rapping had been carried out. Thousands of tons of sand collapsed into the river, and the only fear was that the cave­ins would extend-back to the C.P.R. tracks. There was also the fear that the foundations of the Bailey bridge would be undermined. However, last Friday night 70 tons of rock were dumped near and around < the bridge, and the next day 18-20 I trucks commandeered from companies I Phases of the new education system announced by Hon. Dana Porter, minister of education, recently, are to get a try out when the new addition to Princess Elizabeth public school opens to pupils Jan. 3. This was announced today by A. G. Murray, supervising principal of Ingersoll’s public schools. , The Ingersoll experiment is said to be one of the first ■ under the new plan whereby the barrier is removed from between public and high schools, and all 13 grades are reor-। ganized into four divisions—Primary, (Grades I-ITT); Junior, (equal to Grades IV-VI); Intermediate, (Grades VII-X); and Senior, (Grades XI-XIIH. One of the new rooms at the school of which John Cook is principal, will house 27 pupils of Grades I, II,' and III. arid they will have but one teacher, Mrs. R. "A. Passmore, of Salford. “This will he the first room in our local schools set up under this new plan,’’ said Mr. Murray. "Teachers and par­ ents will be able to see how the organ’zation’works out when it is instituted in the whole system st a later date—probably in September, 1950.” The" pupils will have the one teacher approximately three years. .The new class will have five Grade I pupils, 10 Grade II, and 12 Grade III. The following notice has been sent by Mr. Murray to par­ents of pupils attending Victory Memorial School from north of the river: ONLY 2 OUNCES OUT GUESSING WEIGHTJ. E.

I Father From Here Says Sickles’ ‘Dad’ With Ingersoll's "quinta”, the Sickle boys, creating auch excitement. The Tribune dropped a line to Gur­ ney Williams, Collier’s associate edi­tor, who started the whole affair, and told him about it. Here’s his reply: "Dear Mr. Lee:"I’m pleased to hear that my alle­ged humorous poke at newspapers and the Dionne girls aroused a small measure of furore in medical circles and particularly in Ingersoll. “Your charming town comes readily to my mind when the Province of Ontario in mentioned, because my step father, the Rev. Robert W. Woodroofe, was born there and later moved to Woodstock before becoming naturalized tn the U.S. Perhaps some of your ohler readers will remember him and/or his father, who was in the jewelry-business.

W ilsons Challenge Again For Harmsworth Trophy Miss Canada IV has challenged for the Harmsworth trophy again in I960, and the race for the trophy emblematic of world’s speedboat su­premacy is likely to be in Califor­ nia.E. A. Wilson, owner of the boat which failed badly in last summer's Harmsworth at Detroit, personally delivered the challenge in Detroit yesterday to J. Lee Barrett, secre­ tary of the Yachtmen's Association of America. There is but one stip- dation In the challenge and that is .that the race not be held until ‘after August 1- This is to give the Wilsorf* a chanee to get Miss Can­ada tested before the long jaunt out to California. The Prince Edward Yacht Club, under whose colors the boat races, made the challenge on behalf of Kha Canada IV.

He has been taking the paner for over 60 years. Has anyone been taking it longer? ■Jhere were no better Christmas decorationa anywhere than those in the windows of Victory Memorial Public School, end created by the pupils. They were most attractive. George Hayes figures that the amount of hopping around he does he might just as well get his own plane. He spent Christmas In Mon­treal, and .his New Year’s will be spent handling a game at Detroit. Incidentally, on a recent flight be­tween Toronto end Montreal whom should he meet but Ingersoll's own air hostess, Jean Fuller. A sketch “Shotgun Wedding", was presented by the following, Ralph Bowman (parson), W. Reith (bride), Charles Dykeman (groom) and John Bidwell (father). Martin Brooks stepped up again, with his mother accompanying him, for another song, and then Lorraine Hill, 7, sang the fact that “Santa Claus is Coming to Town" and “White Christmas”. Of course, the biggest panic waa created when a group of fathers of young­ sters bom during the last three months demonstrated their skill at handling babies. Veronica Howe, plant nurse, was the judge nnd three pops tied—Doug Fitzmorris, Del Tra­vis and Gene Klien. Each got ?6 from the Machine Co. to be spent on their babies.

My ambition is to see an all- 1 Ingersoll team on the ice and win- ■ ning ell the way. In a town this size, you should have plenty of promising players.'' Experience is one of Smokey's strong points in the hockey world. At center ice he spent 17 years giving defenders and goal-tenders nightmares with his blistering shots, playing for Tavistock, New Hamburg, Kitchener, Toronto, Sea­forth and Chicago, just to name a few. For several years past he’s been passing his experience on to ; others, and for the last seven has * been in Stratford doing a job there 1 that has put the name of that city > on the map. Five years ago he was one of a small bunch of citizens re­ sponsible for getting the minor league there under way. He is a great believer®in the ‘local • talent' theory. “After all,” he says. • “win or lose, what the fans pay to । see is the boys they know out there —not a bunch of out-of-town play- . era whote faces change from year ’ to year.” -* t plays and a team that wins cham- I t pionships,” he says. I i A keen ball player, Smokey has > found himself in recent yean con- t centrating mainly on softball. He / ■ coached the Stratford Kroehlers’ ♦ I girls’ team for three years, - taking i two championships in that threesom\, I as well. During the summer months ’ he’ll be out there on the diamond no doubt, adding that little extra to 1a team that’s enough to pull the extra effort that wins the game.Smokey came by his name via in­ heritance, he says. He has an elder brother who played hockey before him and his name was Smokey. So when Larry started, what else to call him? “For some reason," hc says. "Harrises always get nick­named Smokey.”He’s married with a cute little daughter just ten old. “Maybe,” he says, “we'll have another Smokey before too long—just to carry on the name.” , ,.Right now, though Larry nnd his family are in need of a place to live.

LOOKING BACK In the Files of ' The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario 4S YEARS AGO On Thursday last, William Bragg All The Best For 1950 That’s Our Wish For You Al! This issue of The Ingersoll Tribune marks com­ pletion of our first year with it. In the main, it has been a happy year — happy, interesting and educational. But we have had our moments. There have been the times, for example, when certain copy didn’t get into the paper when it should, and there seemed no hole big enough for ug to crawl into. There have beet) the times when we grossly mispelled certain people’s names, and even worse times, when we didn’t use them at all. There have been the times when we have bjlled a subscriber, deploring the fact he was in arrears, only to find that be had just paid us — for two years in advance at that. There have been the times when we have badly mixed up someone’s carefully though tout ad, and sometimes — perish the thought — we’ve left it out altogether. We have hu<j Mrs. Miss, and vice-versa, and occasionally small boys filling directorates, and even people Jong since gone happily enjoying re­ freshments at Mrs. So and So’s. We have done all these things, and many more. We have had under one respected citizen's obituary the fact that the common housefly has n life span of six to eight weeks. We have not'-— yet •— had the ladies of the community sponsoring a delightful “Bums" night, as did one of our contemporaries, who meant “Burns” night. Nor hove we had any to equal the classic in a Canadian paper to the effect that "nothing adds more to the attractiveness of a room than a few undraped widows.” But wd have done our share —• and our readers, advertisers and customers have been kind and tolerant. It has been an interesting year — one during which we have made many new friends. A year ago we came here virtually a stranger. Today we flatter ourselves to think we know almost everybody. We have never met so many friendly, helpful people. In Toronto, one can walk for miles and see not a fam­ iliar face. In Ingersoll, it is the unfamiliar, un­ friendly face that is rare. And that is the way we like it. * If all the people of the world shared the spirit of the people of Ingersoll and all it friendly neigh­ bors, there would be none of the international dis­ trust. tension and suspicion that exists today. Any man’s greatest contribution to his fellow man 'is his friendship. It can be so easily given, too — just as easy as the opposite. We have enjoyed our year here and have tried to make some contribution to the community. Any results achieved have been because of the friendly co-operation of many people in Ingersoll and its neighboring communities. This newspaper is de­ voted strictly to the interests of Ingersoll and its friendly neighbors and that will always be its first objective. To all those we have been happy to serve and hope to continue to serve, we wish the ultimate in happiness and prosperity in the coming new year. Notes on the Editor's Pad.. So near and yet so far. they say, and that’s what happened to Candy Carroll visiting her Toronto home for the Christmas week-end. Father, it seems, was supposed to be meeting her at Sunnyside station, but when she beat her way through the holiday mobs, she couldn’ find a sign of him. So Candy got on the telephone, called her mother and asked if pop was coming to meet her and if so where was he. She suggested if pop called in, would mother please tell him to call her (Candy). Moments later Candy’s father did cal) in, reporting he couldn't find Candy anywhere and if she called, would mother Uli her where he was waiting. After all the calls, the lines and the crowds were sorted out, guess .what —Candy's father was calling from within 60 feet of where Candy was waiting. He took her home. As everyone knows, a child’s favorite desire is to scribble anything that comes to mind on the family walls, whether papered or not, whether in ink, cra­ yon or pencil. On the off chance some of their friends grew up without being able to participate in such wonderful fun as kids, friends of ours decided to give them the opportunity. They recently invited friends to a "mural" party, telling them to bring along pencils and craj'ons, paint boxes or what have you, and all their artistic instincts. The mystified friends did so—to discover that the walls of their host and hostess were wide open for artis­ tic scrawls, and no holds barred. They really let loose and made up for any inhibitions suffered as a child, and the walls were a fright. The whole secret, of course, was that the host and hostess were about to have their* home redecorated anyway, and this seemed n harmless way to do it. The forthcoming New Year’s reception nt Ridcau Hall, when the citizens pay their respects to the governor-general, reminds us of a brush we had with the f^itc Lord Twcedsmuir, then governor- gen­ eral, on a similar occasion. A must on such occasion is to be dressed according to rules laid down for centuries, long before Emily Post. The rules include white gloves. Now we didn't have any white gloves, and We were darned if we were going to spend five dollars for a fraction of a second with the governor- general, no matter how fine a man, how splendid the occasion. So we joined the line of dignified men and stately Indies as they shook gloved hands, said Happy New Year or expressed some other senti­ ments, then proceeded on. Lord Twcedsmuir, whose hands were bare, smiled politely, turned to the next, and so on. Then it was our turn. We stuck out our bare, clammy perspiring hand, anj a look of al­ most sheer horror and disbelief covered Lord Twecd- smuir’s face. We DID get a longer look than any­ one eke. But we’ve never been invited back. What Others Say : 5th Concession of West Oxford. Mr. Bragg was 83 years cf age and was born in England. Mrs. Bragg died 10 years ago.

Some­ times they forget, sometimes it is inconvenient to keep them, and mainly because habit is hard to break. They tell their children to resolve to do this and not to do that. yet it all can be summed up in one small resolution. It is one We learned as a very small child in kindergarten, from a dear old lady who was our first school teacher. Her philosophy wag simple and sincere yet through the changes of the years, through childhood, youth and on through manhood we have kept it by us. As each year passes it comes to mind and with that passing becomes easier to practise because it is part of our life. Every New Year wt go back in our minds' eye to that clans- room where we first heard her New Year’s resolu­ tion and hear again her saying, “O God, grant me strength to do those things Which should be done. Grant me the courage to change those things which should be changed. Grant me the will to accept those things which cannot be changed—and grant me the peace of mind to see the one from the other." There is nothing more that we can resolve. Canada-Wide Health Week Helps Us Improve Ourselves In the lust 25 years, Canadian death*rates have fallen in a remarkable way. Discoveries in the field of scientific medicine have had a profound effect on oiir civilization, and naturally have resulted in higher standards of health. Some discuses which were known as. scourges— no more than 25 years ago—are now either com­ pletely under control or partially checked. For instance, case and death rates in Canada for tuber­ culosis, typhoid fever, scarlet fever, diphtheria and whooping cough have fallen spectacularly. Infant and maternal deaths arc on the downgrade, and smallpox has just about disappeared- A spectacular instance of change for better is seen in diphtheria statistics—0,093 cases and 1,280 deaths in Canada in 1924 against 898 cases and 85 deaths in 1948. Despite al! this, however, there is still much room for improvement in the nation's health picture- many problems continue to baffle medical science, public health workers and the general public alike.

START and MARSHALL, What We Need Is Direction For Old Age Anyone who has looked around him in this day of speed and bustle and who has heard the promoters, urge communities to do something for the youth of the land, cannot but be struck with the fact that what we need more than, something for the youth is something for the aged. Walk up and down main street in any town or city in Ontario and just count the number of aged persons, men and women who have retired, who are to be found thereon. Many \ of these r i<l folks have incomes sufficient to keep them, but they have nothing to do with the time that hangs heavily on heir hands.As a result of this lack of useful employment many of these fine old citizens, men and women, who have served their country well, sicken and pine or become ill of mind. What is needed is some use­ful employment that these folks can do— a hobby shop for the aged, where they can work and keep up their interest irz l.fe and where they will meet others in daily compels that could be profitable to both mind and body.In thishobby shop women could sew, knit or per­form other light tasks, the proceeds of the sale of these products going to them. Men could paint old furniture, do upholstering, repairing of metal or wooden articles, etc. Others could teach younger persons bricklaying, moulding, machine tool oper­ation or hundred crafts. The shop would be a social centre for the older citizens and it would, if properly sponsored, pay off in happiness and achie­ vement and in a feeling of contentment among the aged.(St. Marya Journal-Argus) .....—o...-...- Wa Can Boast About Canadian Cheddar Cheese. It is the Best Every now and again somebody comes along and suggests that Canada should have national dishes and feature these in public eating places so tourists would find something different in the food line when they come to Canadajt must be admitted we have been somewhat lax in promoting national dishes or distinctive food, but as a matter of fact there are not a great many dishes we can truly call Canadian.However, there are some foods which we process and make a little better than other countries, which have a certain flavor peculiar to this country. Can­adian chuddar cheese, and all the processed cheeses derived from our cheddar, is something just suffic­ iently different for us to be able to boast about, Canadian cheddar is differentYet the curious fact is that relatively few Canad­ians know much about onr own type of cheese. In Britain, Canadian cheese has been a favorite for almost a century, is highly regarded there, and br­ings a premium over cheese of similar type. There is quite a demand for our cheese in the United State* and this business is growing. But on the whole. Can­adians do not eat a great deal of their own product, in fact, average cheese consumption here, around four pounds per capita, is just about as low as any­where in the world. This despite the fact that pro­duction runs well over a hundred million pounds yearly, once was yearly twice that.National Cheese Week, now under way, is an attempt to tell Canadians more about this purely Canadian product. The hope is, not only will more Canadians sample cheese and prepare cheese dishes, but that it will be offered as a Canadian food to our visitors. Cheese lends- itself to an almost endless variety of dishes which are highly regarded by food experts in other countries, but which, unfortunately, seldom appear on tables here.(Aylmer Exprets) Pracy, Elgin Perry, Zillah Porteous, Alec Ross, Harold Robinson, Ida Smith, Herbie Smith, Sophia Sham- berg, Charlie Schlimine, Alice Sharp, Harry Tinney, Mabel Tay, Maggie Walker, Charlie Webb, Clar­ ence WuiTen, Sam' Waring,No. 6 to No. 5—Mitch Buchanan, Vera Brebner.Njlive Cornfoot, Mary Dougan, Georgi* Elliott, Florence Edwards, GeOrge Golding, Fred Gill, Alma George, Evellyn Hawkins, George Hawkins, Earl Henderson, Ethel Holmes, Martha Healey, Pera1 Horsman, Cora Hill Beatrice Jack-1 'TAKE rNOTlcE”'that' son.

Separate from the rest of the building, at the rear, it is really a room where youngsters can learn to enjoy school and lessons. It has a separate entrance round the back, through a door flanked with glass on each side so that the youngsters can come and go without Retting in the way of the older pupils and where their teacher can keep her eye on them easily. As you come in the door there is a bright cloakroom where they can hang their hats and coats, vfith washrooms for boys and girls at each »t one corner are a row of white eu* -OAKIS where the kiddies can tuck away their books tidily. 100% tlreproot That the new building is fireproof goes almost without saying In fact. Bill isn’t boasting when he says. "As near as we can possibly get it it is 100S fireproof." The building is tacked onto the back of the old building in such a way that the present corridors are extended back hi one long line running from front to rear. Where the old building is joined to the new one. on both floors, are massive steel fire doors which are normally kept open but with the slightest sudden rise in temperature automatically close and lock.They had an early test, too, when several weeks ago the wind blew over an oil Stove right at the other end of being sprayed half way up ail the walls which is washable, doing away with unsightly black marks where J triple ami 269 single.
