I Minor beekeeping troubles, toads,and skunks usually sleep in winterand eat bees in summer. Bees them­selves are a bigger problem. They don't sleep in winter and they doeat. However, they do eat honey—pure food and good for man or bees (t), and very cheap as beegroceries go. The catch is, they alsoeat in summer. Reliable estimates tell us they eat 200 lbs. per colonyin summer and 40 to 60 lbs. in win­ter. When per colony production is as of late years about zero to 40lbs. somebody is apt to go hungry,probably it is the bees. Otherwise there is a latin term, very descrip­tive, which says apiaris t-the gobus-ticum.About forty years ago. when Itook honey from my bees in sum­mer and sold it to people for money to buy sugar to. feed my bees forwinter, I met an old, old man whotold me he had kept bees in hisyouth. Talking about feeding bees,he told me “You know of course,Mr. Sadler, that you can feed them all winter on chicken. I said no, Ididn’t. Now I see my time is aboutup. If we don’t get a floor price under eggs, maybe 1’11 reveal thisvaluable secret and so help other struggling, troubled bee men, andalso their brothers the poultrymen. Chapter the Next The old man’s method of feeding bees all winter on chicken wasvery simple. So was I, to listen to him, but I’ve never told it to any­one in all these years, and have de­cided to revea 1 it now for what it may be worth. He said: “Justdress your chicken, j probably youshould kill it first), as you would for the table, wrap the bird up incheesecloth and lay it very carefullyat the beehive entrance. You know,he said, those bees will come out andcluster on the cheesecloth, suck the chicken juices through its meshesand live ail winter, Mr. Sadler, yessir, on that chicken and maybe itssuccessor. That sounds almostpoetic, but while I have never tried the method and call no man a liar,yet 1 have always felt that if therewere such things as Liars’ Clubs in these days, that old man must havebeen the president of all of them. But that is just a sample of theoodles of advice on how to keep bees I’ve had to take and try tolike in forty years.Another old beekeeper told the this one on himself.\ He said hiswife had been giving? him some ad­vice about some of his failings, talk,talk, talk, nag, nag, nag, chew,chew, chew until, said he, I ■ couldn’t stand it any longer, so! while she was still at it, I told her i to shut her mouth, right out loudi like that, and do you know, shenever heard -me, and I was glad of Seek Special Train For 1,000 People To See Harmsworth Another Harmsworth excursionis being planned by the IngersollKiwanis for the famed speedboating event at Detroit Sept. 1, 2, and (ifnecessary), 4th. More than 560 from Ingersolland district and elsewhere journiedby bun to Detroit la«*t year whenMiss Canada IV failed in her chal­ lenge for the trophy emblematic ofworld speedboat supremacy. Thisyear, however, it is hoped to line up a special train to carry 1000 peopleto the event.One lady has already asked The Tribune to reserve her tickets.Incidentally, work is alreadybeing carried out on Miss Canada’shull at Gravenhurst, and Rolls Royceengineers are expected in Ingersollshortly to tear down and re-buildthe two Griffon engines loaned by the British for the record-seekingboat.

SimcoeTillsonburg ParisHespeler INGERSOLL New Speedway to Ron Between Highways No. 2 and No. 3 The new four-lane Hamilton-Windsor highway will skipIngersoll.This is the word brought back from Queen’s Park byMayor Dr. J. G. Murray who represented Ingersoll at a con­ ference Tuesday with Hon. George Doucett, minister of high­ways. The deputation included representatives of Paris,Woodstock, London, Chatham and Windsor, and two membersof the legislature.Dr. Murray said the minister disclosed that the proposednew highway would be launched, it was hoped, in the nearfuture, or whenever money was available. It was definitelyon the books, he said. But in the meantime, Mr. Doucett prom­ised, No. 2 highway would be improved until the new highway could be built.The minister indicated to the deputation that the newhighway would run between No. 2 and No. 3 highways.Experience of the highways department has proved thata new right-of-way should be used for a controlled-access highway, if the proper benefits are to accrue.Much of the value of the Queen Elizabeth Way betweenToronto and Hamilton was lost because there are so many entrance^ to it, according to officials. These entries are saidto constitute a menace to traffic moving at a fast pace.On the other hand, the eastern section of the Queen Eliz­ abeth, from Highland Creek to Oshaw’a, has not these hazardsbecause it was laid out through farmlands and access is con­trolled. The same conditions apply to the Toronto-Barrie road. The more practical route for a four-lane road in WesternOntario, it was pointed out, would be between No. 2 and No.3 along a ridge that exists between the Thames Valley water­ shed and Lake Erie. The highway would thus avoid thepossibility of flooding and there would be no large rivers to span. ____________________________________ Hand Up, But Not Hand-Out Said Best for AU Concerned Tonight’s meeting of the Kiwanis *Club will emphasize national healthweek, which ends Saturday.

TAs IngereoU Tribune The possibility of making theThamesford continuation school into a high school was discussed at ameeting of Thamesford Y’s Men’sclub recently. Ed Byerman, former member of the collegiate districtboard, Deputy Reeve J. K. McLeod,East Nissouri, Herbert P. Dunn, N.Oxford, Gerald Pirie, member of the collegiate board, Grant Sutherland,and township treasurer Wm.

P. Dunn. Said Ed Byerman, “That night,instead of a guest speaker, we deci­ded to have a discussion of the situa­ tion noaAhe district has been defeatedby the7 vote. We thought it would bea good idea to invite the reeves sothey would know what wo were think­ ing. Are we going to take the over­flow from the Ingersoll school?

Tons Of Rock on Banks Ere Spring Floods Another week to 10 days should see completion of rip-rapping of sec­tions of the new Thames channelbadly eroded during the recent “spr­ ingy" and rainy spells, according toGordon W. Pittock, Ingersoll repre­sentative on TVA. For weeks now since high waterate away as much as 30 feet of thesouth bank trucks have been dump­ing rock in an 8,000-foot stretch ofbank east of Centreville. More than4,600 truckloads, or an estimated 27,-600 tons of rock have been dumped down the bank, and a little more rockon a 1,000-foot stretch will completethe job.

My aptitudefor things mechanical is zero plus one. My powers of recollection arezero. With this admirable capacity for the job I will now, with manya misunderstanding and error, re­ call the highlights of what I wa»told, under a list of disconnectedheadings. Hull: Miss Canada IV is a two-step hydroplane. She goes best inrippled water which “breaks thevacuum under the steps.” , |Hazard: Last year one of Har­ old’s best friends was driving a boaton the Bay of Quinte when she roll­ ed over at speed. He lived for twoweeks, but unconsciously.. Kidsknow how hard water can hit you. when you take a flat dive from abier. So Harold has not turned any.corners at more than 95 in.p.h.

That mixture keepsthe cylinders from getting so hot1that they would detonate the fuel,'regardless of the spark plugs. Ap­ parently. if there is any trick inHarold’s success, it is this. At the■ aces on the Detroit River this lum- ;mer, spectators thought it was sabo-: tage when Harold's mechanic beganpouring water into what theyI thought was the gas tank. Of coarse, the tanks are separate, but they fill.through the same deck opening.Washing machine: Here there is no intention of insulting the MisaI Canada family by calling them wash- • ing machines. It is curious, however,that when a racing boat develops■ speed and begins to plane over theI water, the wash she formerly madethrough the water changes into a“rooster tail” of high flying spray thrown up by her propeller which1 now moves up closer to the surface.What I rather have in mind is that Harold is an engineer at a plant,where, as he remarked, he has to“turn out a new type of washingmachine before next week." He re­ gards the current types of washingmachine as too complicated and ex­pensive. "I’d like to design a mach­ ine that any housewife could fixwith a hairpin."

But the chances are (that new artificial ice plant recently <installed in the Community Centre, ;stand* highest among the “things we | like to brag about” here. ,Taken over by the Y’s Men’s clubin 1944, the hockey rink waa turned into a community centre. And al­though it has always been a busy spot,the centre didn't really mean toomuch to the athletically mindedyoungsters of the town until lastDecember when the machine for mak­ing ice was put into the building. Naturally, such a venture runsinto money. Quite a lot of money I Tobe more specific it runs into $30,000, in nice round figures. So an appealwas made to the citizens of the town.Within three weeks, 275 persons had kicked in $100 each, while the re­mainder came in smaller amounts.But it all added up to the required$30,000.

Open trap-door* and inadequately protected stair* gave ri»e to the mostfrequent injurie* and strangely en­ough these injurie* from fall* were more of a hazard to young and oldpersons, than those in the intermed­iate groups. Persons from 20 to 40 year* of age, however, suffered inju­ry almost as frequently from cuttingand piercing tools, or from crushingwhile handling agricultural machin­ ery. The Prairies with about one-third of Canada's farming population,had 60 per cent of the accidents, dueto the greater degree of mechaniza­tion of agriculture in the West.Miscellaneous accidents totalled 10,000 and a frequent cause was aninjury from horses, either by kick­ing or runaway teams. Also included under this heading were backfiringtractors and other engines, automo­bile accidents, and poisonous gas.Fields and woodlots accounted fornearly 60 per cent of accidents, and barns and outbuilding® were the nextcommon place of accidents, followedby injuries sustained in the farm house.Not only do the greatest numberof accidents occur in the Prairie Provinces, but the relative frequencyof accidents is also greatest there.According to the survey, the safest province is Quebec.

At the head of the community; V p p n Hpalfliv*centre is Larry Harris, or “Smokey”: TkCCp l ltd l lllV . a* he is better known. Harris’ offi-l cial title is community centre mana-1 ger and recreational director, but1 actually he’s more than that. A noted I hockey player in his younger days, j “Smokey”, a native of Tavistock, plied1 hrs puck ware* in Toronto, Kitchener, Seaforth, Stratford, as well a* sev­ eral U.S. club* before hanging up his skates. Now at 36, he helps coach the local hockey teams, as well as handle the executive problems of the com­ munity ^centre.The advent of artificial ice, notonly awakened the interest of thetown’s hockey minded youngsters, butthe adults a* well. Despite the fact that hockey games are played fivenights a week, good crowds attendthem all, according to Harris. Good Crowd “It’s surprising the way the crowd holds up night after night,”-Harrisconfessed. “But it certainly is anagreeable surprise.”Of course hockey’s been taking up , most of the ice time, but Harris re­vealed that plans are being made toallow more time for public skating. All of which should be good newsfor those who like to glide on theoiades to a merry tune.

Playoffs are now under way with eight teams involved,two more having been eliminated.Following is a tabulation of thestandings: SACRED HEARTBOWLING "BLEWS" Barry McKeon It was a lamentable session indeed!Without mercy, nor qualms of their conscience, the friendly “Rockets"rocked the unfortunate “Tigers” tothe tune of three games and seven pointe. Pat Foster laid down the lawon alleys 7 and 8 with his over-ourheads bowling. That 277 topped them all. If we never bowl the “Rockets”again, it will be all too soon. Marj­orie Dunn added to our miseries withher 231 game. The whole trouble, to our way of thinking (legitimate ornot) is the fact that on whateveralley we use the four pin is always SQUARE. After last week, we're go­ing to be a hard team to convincethere is not more than one head pineither. Leona was impressed with herteam and not much wonder, we thinktoo, that they are just bulging withpossibilities to wind up the seasonon top of the heap.Mary Dunn's “Leafs” aided byClarence O’Npils 251 game and MinHughes with her 206, and Oh yes,little Eddie Haduk's 272—mustn'tover-look “little Eddie”; Bill Taylorwith 207 and Mary’s own consistentscores, walloped the daylights out ofJack Shannon's “Pirates”. The latestcomment from Jack after the battle deep m the throes of his misery were:“T'waa a tough fight Ma, — we lost”My opinion is the “Tigers” should play the “Pirates” every Thursday,that way we may secure a couple ofpoints. Crash-Bang!! Just Pat Foster getting another strike.Con’s "Cubs” drubbed Frank Mc­Namara’s “Woodys” again for three gamea and seven points. “Woodys"are another team we should play moreoften. By the way, “we" are the“Tigers” owned and operated by theredhead himself. Fred McDermott's “Giants” had agrand time trimming the "Red Sox"by two games and five pointe. It is not often that Harry Whitwell’s “Red GROUP “A" Dorchester OrumlinCentreville ThamesfordKintore(eliminated) GROUP “B”WelburnBeachville SalfordDickson'sVerschoyle (eliminated) with 7 pointe winning the three games. The Woodstock ladies werehaving some tough luck while the Al­leyettes were hitting the head pinfor some nice scores. They rolled a2788 with E. Phillips roiling 668 forher three games. R. Goulding 618; M.Baskette 517; Jerry Winders 514; I. Huteon 471; The Shamrocks rolled2625 with M. Wilks 535 and T. Plum­mer 473. Alleyettes are on top of the leaguewith 73 pointe and Galt ‘A’ ladiesare in second with 55. The Galt team have two postponed games Xet to playto their credit. They are coming herethis Saturday and this standing couldbe changed quite a bit as both teams will be out to win. It will be worthwatching. At present E. Phillips hasthe high single in this league with398 and Jean Maries has high aver­ age with 213. The Alleyettes havehigh single team score with 1283. Intercity Men Hand Macs 62; Millers 34; Argos28 and Red Sox in the cellar with 27. Intercity WomenThe Ingersoll National Alleyettesrolled a team score of 8123 to takethree straight games from the Wood-stock Dennig girls who had one oftheir off days and rolled 2639. Forthe Alleyettes E. Phillips was bestrolling a 760 three-game total, withsingle of 275; Jerry Winders 633 and222; R. Goulding 591 and 257 single;J. Marles who is leading the highaverage role for this league with 216 rolled 557 which is not up to her us­ual good scoring. I Huteon who hasbeen in a slump came out to roll a 582total. For the Dennis ladies H. Kem- poter was roiling 626 and 248 single;B. Morrison 588 and 248 single; B.Parker 539 with 240 single; M. Brow- nscombe 453 and P. Dennis 433.Next Saturday will see the Alley­ettes down to Woodstock Munro’s / Sox” are on the tail end of matters.I have all the sympathy in the worldfor you Harry as “we" know how itfeels. Oh No!—There goes anotherstrike by Pat What a rut to be in.The surprise of the evening came asJack Warden’s "Indians” scalped the“Bears” by a five to two victory. There seems to be no end to theseupsets, does there Johnny? AustinFortner aided the cause with his 2541 game; Fr. Fuerth helped also with'his high of 226; Joe Dorland’s 252was more than a little aid; Din Howewith 221 was just proving he could do it too; And sure enough, Jackhimself was a way over 200 also. Ifsuch scores as those aforementioned are continued , I can see another 7pointe whizzing past “we". For thestatistics: Nora Wituik holds high average for the ladies with 187; andHarry Whitwell hold the men’s with211, Everybody knows the rest of thehonorB are being held by Mr. andMrs. Johnny Shand. Games this pastweek worth words are: Florence Dor-lahd 233; Nellie Shannon 223; Cec­elia Gazzola 206; Leona McNoah201. For the men, Jules Asselin 256;John Shand 276; Joe Story 282; Con Ring 251; Harry Whitwell 255; PeteGiovanetti and Claude Hughes withtheir games of 200 and something over. See you all tonight.

I In a rip-roaring game at PariaTwsday night Ingersoll and thehomesters played almost to a stand- I still a« first Paris leapt into a 9 to 2lead and then the locals fought backto 9 to 7, which was the final score, making it two losses in two nightsfor the local six. The loss broughtthe two teams into a deadlock forthird place in the standings and that the local's final game with Brant­ford tomorrow night here is an im­portant one. It was a rough game, with mostof the goals coming while one teamwas short handed. Referee Riley han­ded out 13 minors, 2 majors, and a misconduct to Bartram, who couldn’ttake no for an answer.Paria built up a 3 to 0 lead in thefirst seven minutes and at 17.05 Hen­ hawke cut it down, Bob Connor mak­ing it 3 to 2 just eight seconds later,from the faceoff. Ken Connor got boththe assists. It was in the second per­ iod that the local Legionaires faded,and five Paris tallies beat Connor with no reply from the Ingersoll team.When Paris made it nine at 3.43 inthe third it looked very much likethe Ingersoll boys were in for one of the biggest tousings they’d had thisseason. But it was then that the Jun­iors really showed their ability to fight and fight hard. Sparked bysnme brilliant play by Henhawke and•Goose’ Land, they dominated theplay, and climbed to within twogoals of the Paris total.The teams: Ingersoll; goal, LeoConnor; defense, Beemer, McKee; centre, Hamilton, wings, Henhawke, Land; subs, B.

McHenry Professor of Public Health Nutri­tion, Schoo] of Hygiene, University Freeze-Proof Locks On New Pontiac OSHAWA: More than a score ofappearance and mechanical changesare incorporated in the new I960 model Pontiac now on view in deal­ers’ showroom* from coast to coast.In presenting the new Pontiacs, E. J. Umphrey, director of sales Gen­eral Motor Products of Canada, Ltd., said:"We believe our new Pontiac to bethe best-looking, finest performingPontiacs ever produced. They em­ brace logical and well thought outadvances. The new 1949 modelsbrought Pontiac's popularity to a new peak. Now we have gone onfrom there."Pontiac offers 21 models, beginning rn the lowest price range. Chieftainand Streamliner series on 120-inchwheelbase, are continued with stand­ ard and deluxe styling, and with sixor eight-cylinder engines. Cubic dis­placement of the eight-cylinder eng­ ine has been increased to produce 108horsepower. The six-cylinder enginecontinues at 90 horsepower. Compres­ sion ratios for both engines are 6.5,allowing maximum performance withoperational savings on non-premium gasolines.Fleetleader Special and FleetleaderDeluxe, on 115-inch wheelbase offer calculated design touches from bump­er to bumper, inside and out, whichenrich and highlight Pontiac’s tradi­tionally rich appearance.Other exterior styling highlights include a new hood ornament andmedallion, new rear deck lid handleand new rear deck name plate. Both fore and aft, the Pontiac Silver Str­eak, re-styled to blend with the 1950exterior treatment, again gives Pon­ tiac the world’s best motorcar identi­fication.The Chieftain series offers a sport coupe and 4-door sedan, the latter Protect your investment.

The growing season makes or breaks your flock. So build strong, vigorous egg machines now, the "NATIONAL WAY". Be sure of birds that lay premium eggs steadily through Fall and Winter. Canadians are lucky people! Wehave more wheat, more meat, morebutter than we need. We have lots of milk, plenty of attractive vegetables,and generous quantities of eggs andother fine foods. Only in a few other lands are people so fortunate. Com­pare our supplies of a large varietyof foods with the meagre amounts available to most people in India,China, or many other countries.Unfortunately, the use of food sup­plies is not alway8 wise. Probably one sixth of Canadian adults areoverweight because they eat too much.This is possible in a land of bountifulsupplies. Overweight is harmful be­cause it speeds the onset of degener­ative diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure. [Reduction in weightcan be accomplished by eating less—but see your doctor and get sound advice about what to cat.In the last few years the food ha­bits of children have been studied in almost every province. Children needmilk and vitamin D for healthy grow­th of bone but about 30 per cent of Canadian children get very littlemilk. Public school children need vit­amin D just as much as do infantsbut about 80 per cent of the childrendo not receive the vitamin D theyshould have in the winter months.Many children have only small am­ ounts of citrus fruits, tomato juiceand other good sources of vitamin C.Generally, children eat enough bread, meat, and potatoes, and many child­ren have far too much cake, pastry,candy, and soft drinks.

To provide additional cooling capacity, the outside walls of the cyl­inder water jacket have been movedout at sides and ends. Where Synchro­ Mesh rather than Hydra-matictransmission has been ordered, aclutch with increased diameter is pro­ vided to assure smooth positive en­gagement.Other Pontiac Mechanical innova­ tions for 1950 include:A new and larger radiator core forthe six-cylinder engine; rubber rearspring bushings to eliminate road shock end power transmission noisesand which eliminate lubrication needat this point.

SPORTSMANSHIP IN “CANADA UNLIMITED How Badminton became one of Canada’s first-rank sports! 1930 . . . Badminton players across Canada were training hard. Five years earlier an English team had come to teach Canadians the game's fine points. Now another group of Britain's top amateurs were making a tournament tour of the nation's clubs to see how the game had caught on. Canadians had been keen learners . . . and the visitors found themselves evenly matched. The final decision was to come from "Nse Canadian champion. In suc­ cessive games at Toronto, Kingston and Montreal he defeatod Britain’s four lead­ ing players . . . Canada had won a top place in the badminton world. Badminton grows daily in popularity with Canadians. Keen competition and good sportsmanship have made it a favourite everywhere. And together, competition and sportsmanship make things better for Canadians in work and play. They keep your future in Canada — unlimited.

Foot Care Vital To Good Health When it comes to hard work, .—heart outdistances the feet only bya narrow margin, say foot health officials. A very good reason whycare of the feet, and a knowledge ofhow to buy shoes for correct fit, are important in the Canadian health picture.Since it is estimated that about 8out of 10 adults have foot troubles,and that studies indicate that 85 per cent of all adult foot trouble can beprevented before the feet have com­pleted their growth and development,foot health education should begin atan early age. Widespread ignorance of the fact that it takes 20 years forfeet to grow' to maturity, is the prin­ciple reason why so many children have foot defects and deformities bythe time they leave the public schools. Nearly all children are born with per­fect feet but by the time they reach their first birthday eight per centhave foot defects—this increases to22 per cent at the age of two, 41 per­ cent by the time they are five yearsold. At 10 the numbers have increasedto more than 50 per cent.Few children ever complain abouttheir feet, yet in one recent study,76 per cent of them wore shoes from one-half to three and a half sizes tooshort. Children’s.'feet are pliable and because of their soft structure theywill conform to the shape of the shoewithout evidence of pain until thenerves become irritated and thechild’s health is affected. There arewarning signs of Toot trouble andill-fitting shoes, including unwilling­ ness to. walk, run and play m anotherwise normal, healthy child. It Is unnatural for a child to be irri­table, to wake at'night and cry thatknees or legs are aching; these signscan result from excessive fatiguedue to foot weaknesses or disturban­ces to which improper footwear is a contributing factor.Foot health depends on well-fittingshoes, good posture, good walking habits, and correct care of the feet.Very important is properly fittingshoes. ’ with again the option of six or eight-’ cylinder engines in the deluxe.

Ingersoll, Ontario, Thursday, February 2, 1950 Modern New Post Office Planned for Thamesford The Police VlU»rt of Thawwafard has been an active centre during thepast year. The village is growingsteadily and the library board has aproject underway not found in manyother small towns. The project was started about four years ago and hasattracted increasing interest eversince. Under the leadership of library board president, E. C. Shelley, any­where from 25 to 40 people meet fora monthly book review session.The review begins punctually at 8 o'dock and are limited to one hour.Following the review the meeting isthrown open for general discussion on the book reviewed. These meetings areaimed at providing entertainment andstimulating general reading interest. A committee is formed each season to choose ihv books to be renewed andarranges certain members of the com­ munity do the reviews. The rules arenot hard and fast and the committeeneed not be the only ones included in the reviews and persons chosen asreviewers. may exchange books bet­ween themselves. All members will be notified as to which books will be re­viewed at the beginning of each ses­sion or as far in advance as possible in order that they will have an oppor­tunity to familiarize themselves withthe works to be discussed. Neat Little Library Most of the information and organ­ization of the club is handled by the librarian, Miss Anabel MacKay. Themeetings are held in the neat littlelibrary which was built in 1934. The library increases it stock of books byabout 300 yearly with an additionalquota received on the exchange basis from the county library services, nowheaded by Mrs. Louise Krompart ofWoodstock. The book review sessions, whilethey stress CbnadKan themes alsoprovide variety. The works which they have reviewed so far include: “IChoose Freedom” by Igor Kravchin-ko, "Ojibway Melody" by Harry Sy- mon, "Canada the Unknown Country"by Bruce Hutchison and “WinstonChurchill” by Rene Kraus. Thamesford is keeping pace withthe cultural advancements. Duringthe last year, 10 new homes were built or begun. Construction began on acold storage plant, the local drug­store was renovated and a flour mill was rebuilt. One garage added a showroom and storage apace and thevillage water supply *a* boosted bythe sinking of another wall.

The band has been going for threeyears now and has 25 members, rang­ing in age from 12 to 20. During the past year a training plan was addedto the normal band activities. Underthe direction of A.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, I960 “Mill” la Editor’s Best Pal But It Can Be Infuriating It was Julius Caesar who said, “I came, I saw, I ‘conquered,” and if someone didn’t say " a type­ writer is an editor’s best friend,” they have un­ doubtedly thought of saying it. Don’t believe them. .Normally in the newspaper business it is some­ thing very much out of the ordinary that rattles the editor. A person calls in to point out that there is a final ‘e’ in their name. An advertiser calls to ask who the so and so wrote that ad — and why isn't he taken out at dawn to face a firing squad? The paper gets behind its deadline. All these things he takes in his stride, philosophically accepting them as everyday occupational hazards — rather with the same joie de vivre shown by a steeplejack when perched on a two by two 80 feet out into no­ where. It might almost be termed fatalistic. Yet in that paper-littered little nook where the editor whiles away his time there is one unfailing trouble maker — and naturally it’s completely in­ dispensable — also much too heavy to heave heartily through the nearest window. Our typewriter. To look at its battered countenance would give one the impression that life’s tribulations have passed over it leaving only a peaceful passiveness. And it is always with eternal hope that yon Ed. faces the machine. Hope that this time it will treat him right. The beginning is invariably' peaceful. Two fore­ fingers pound out words of 9»edom and they look the same on paper a» they did in mind. The start varies; sometimes two letters are neatly transposed, sometimes two keys leap up together, making a messy splodge and sticking to each other with the consistency of quick-drying cement. Still he keeps his temper, parts them, and continues. A capital letter fails to connect so he tries again. An assist­ ant points out that the name of the person he is writing about is Smith, not Jones (the typewriter again). Then a well-ordered word appears as a jumble of letters. There’s that Jones again. What’s he doing in this story anyway? By now the machine is reachmg a fine peak and wrong letters, no let­ ters, two at once letters, different names fly furious­ ly onto the unresisting copy paper in thick succes­ sion. Then the typewriter reaches its climax and the svords (both right and wrong ones) assume a misty appearance that increases as the story pro­ gresses until the editor’s eyesight gives out. Still, why lose one’s temper at a mere machine?

It used to to that every Spring, in fact every timewe had a protracted rainy spell, we lived in fearand trembling that we might experience a repetitionof the disastrous flood of 1937. What a relief it hasbeen during the past few week*, with the very un­reasonable heavy rainfall, to see the swollen watersof the Thames rolling by and to able to breathe easilyin the knowledge that we, and others along the river, were safe from a disastrous flood.We all realise that this great improvement in theriver channel, and consequent freedom from floods,just didn't happen. The project has taken a tremen­dous amount of time and work on the part of GordonPittock and those associated with him. It ha* meantheavy expenditures on the part of the Dominion andProvincial Governments. It has called for very siz­able money contributions from the industrial firmslocated along the river, including our own Company. We are sure, however, it is worth while.Not only have we the freedom from possible flooddamage, but we can see many other benefits. TheLime companies to the east of us can now go aheadwith expansion plan* ag more land becomes avail­able for mining. Then along the river channel thr­ough our town much land has been reclaimed andbecomes available as ideal sites for industrial plants. When filling in of low spots along the river hasbeen completed we will have seen the last of the un­sightly, unhealthy, stagnant water pools just a stone’s throw from our main street.Truly it is something which we, as a community,should be very thankful.Front “National Plant Booster" William StoneSons Ltd. Houtc Organ. Middlesex Moves To Save Its SoilFew assets are more valuable than soil. We takeit for granted, like air and water. But it can to a wasting asset ns much as a mine or forest. In Mid­dlesex steps are being taken to combat “soil star­vation” under the leadership of the Middlesex Crop Improventment Association.The amount of money involved is small in com­parison with the importance of the project, $4,000 of which the county is asked to provide half. Butthe benefits to be obtained from learning how toprevent soil hunger are tremendous. ' We are just beginning to learn a bit about theI mysterious soil. Medical men are preparing life-saving drugs from it. Only recently in Western Ont-' ario a young farmer, James McGuigan, of CedarSprings, told how he increased crops sensationallyby using irrigation in a region where such practiceis extremely rare. Every farmer knows that plants draw their foodI supplies from the soil, and that they can only use this food when it is in solution. Therefore, theremust to enough moisture in the soil *o that plantscan feed adequately. It is to largely conserve this moisture that the farmer cultivates his light landand breaks up the capillary channels by whichmoisture is lost. M ater will not, as Mr. McGuigan warned, correct soil deficiencies, but* it does permitplants to use feed reserves in the soil. There is stillthe eternal need for fertilizer and cultivation. The soil must have life before it can pass it on to grow­ing crops.(London Free Preen) Notes on the Editor's Pad.. It was indeed quite a let-down. A local firm asked some local boy scouts if they would care to distribute handbills around the town at a penny each. Scout­ master Harold Smith thought it would be a good idea and suggested to the boys that the pennies they made could go into “a big feed." That was okay with the boys, and they delivered the bills with gusto. Came tijne for the “big feed", and the boys ate lightly several days ahead of time, and ate no lunch or sup­ per that evening just to ensure they would be able to do justice to the feed. But there was only one thing wrong — the boys had got their dates switched! The story goes that scoutmaster Smith barely es­ caped being eaten alive by the ravenous scouts, upon being told the feast was not that night, but two weeks hence. What Others Say: Debunking Beaver If the professors keep on the way they are goingwe wont have a single myth left. Only the other day some expert or other was debunking the busybee.

Hundreds of enthusiasts are hanging morbidly around home, their ski suits in moth ballsand their skis in the basement with last year’s waxstill on them. Some promoters were even driven to the humiliating extreme of bulldozing the hillsidesso the skimpy jnow flurries would cover the gravel.Man’s engenuity has fixed up the other sports, why not skiing? With artificial ice we can evenskate in the summer if we vtant to. Our curlers fling stones and brooms about in total disregard tothermometers. Lacrosse has been taken indoors.Only the skiers are left to chew the rugs. If it were only the loss of pleasure, the problem would to arelatively simple one of diversion. But skiing is bigbusiness nowadays. It is no longer the small groups who strap on their runners and go down the slopesin the back pasture. It is now the multi-million-dollarresorts that beckon them, with special trains and with modern hotels complete from head waiters tobus boys. First thing wo know these, too, will beclimbing on the band wagon and yelling for govern­ment subsidies. Having no snow under them, ourskiers will demand at least a floor.Obviously it is time for action. Surely, somewhere, some scientific genius lurks who will come up witha solution. Dry ice sprayed on clouds hag made itrain. What can be sprayed to make it snow? Fail­ing that, what about ersatz snow? Other things areslippery, too. The children in the playgrounds haveslides which, with the aid of biscuit tins, are goodthe year round. Was it Marie/ Antoinette who coas­ted on sugar in the Bois de Boulogne? Rice chemi­ cally treated might coat our ski-runs, but we haveno rice surplus. Then how about the bacon fat whichhas plagued Mr. Gardiner? Or must we pave our skiing slopes and redesign the skis? After all, ifwe are turning into a banana belt we might as wellturn boldly.

Students June in January, that’s what peoplehave been saying, but Thursday mor­ning principal Jack Herbert and two school bus drivers had somethingmore to say about the freak weather.It wasn’t so short, it was just as pointed.School opened as usual that morn­ing but cume time to ring the belland two bus-loads of students fromrural areas in West Zorra and EastMissouri hadn’t arrived. In fact none of the four busses had put in theirnormal appearance. Two arrived, asJack put it, “pretty well on time,” but the other two—with their cargoof 70 pupils were absent withoutleave.The two who did break through told sad tales of muddy roads whichbogged down things like school bus­ses. School carried on and so did the other two busses, (carp, on missing,that is). Finally the principal jumpedinto his car to locate the busses. The one bringing pupil* from East Mis­ souri and West Zorr* to Ingersollwas still capable of navigating roads,but several ear* immediately in front of it weren't! The bu* might just **well have been bogged down for allthe use it was in transporting ‘pupil* to school.Bo, summoning the spirit of theBerlin Airlift, Jack drove a shuttle service to the school taking his char­ge* in the hard way. Of the other bustaking pupil* to Thamesford, Jack said, “I don’t know where it got to.It still hadn’t arrived at noon. Theroads were really in bad shape.” However, any ideas students mayhave had about a new excuse forskipping school were soon xiuXshedas the principal re-routed the busses onto safer thoroughfares. Mud orsnow, the school busses must go through.
