J. D. Mil­lar, Deputy Minister of Highwaystold The Tribune in a special tele­ phone interview. But he added thatthe department do not consKier thisfact in any way detrimental to the growth of the town.“Take the case of the LakeshoreRoad when the Queen Elizabeth High­ way was put through,” he said, “Alot of traffic still uses that road asan alternative route and the towns on that highway are growing. All thathas happened was that the new high­way took the bulk of the fast throughtraffic, such as heavy freight trucks,therby saving the municipalities alot of wear on the roads, and 'a lotof traffic dangers. ..The same would happen anywhere else. We proposeto run the new highway through be­tween the Thames Valley and Lake Erie so that it only has to make onemain river crossing over the GrandRiver at Brantford. It is entirely in accordance with your representative(Councillor Fred Wurker) on the the centres of population in order tot relieve the acute problem of conges-1 tion.Throughout all the areas there willi be a general program of renovation■ tn addition to the vast plan-, for new ; construction. Speaking of his pro-i gram as a whole, which includes> other developments besides it, majorone, Mr. Doucett Mid, “I feel this• program is a program that is in line- with our economic expansion. I be­lieve it will represent an added pro- i vincial asset of the greatest import-i pnee. It will enhance the true values; of property and industry through- - out the province. It will save human. lives and reduce property losses oc-, casioned by the heavy traffic toll.” “Stalin’s Treasure” Conies to Ingersoll The chain-letter nonsense hag hitIngersoll again.Alex Edmonds reports having re­ ceived the following fortune-promis­ing note; entitled "Stalin's TreasureUnited Western Telephone”:“The luck of this card has beensent to you.

Taxes Up 7.7 Mills Education Big Cause Ingersoll’s taxrate for 1950 is to be 62.7 mills. This is an increase of 7.7 mills over last year’s rate andwas reached by members of town council and the finance com­mittee after night after night on the estimates. The rate will be officially struck by town council at theirregular meeting Monday.Rising cost of education in the community is said to be responsible for approximately half the rate increase. But inaddition to $105,000 for the Princess Elizabeth school addi­tion, there was $95,000 spent on the hospital and over $100,000 on the roads. It all helped to boost the rate.Council members sat until midnight Thursday in an effortto cut down the estimates, but "Wgured they were down to the bare essentials even with the new rate. Official Opening Of School Addition To Be March 9 Dr. C. A. Brown, registrar of thedepartment of education, will official­ ly open the new addition to PrincessElizabeth school March 9 at thesame time the school is holding its annual open house.

"The presenttrend”, he added, "is more and moretoward the fast, through highway that does not touch any big centres.” The same point was made by theMinister, George Doucett, in an ad­ dress in the Legislature last week.He said that the policy generally willbe to swing the construction around meeting Tuesday night when he suggested that the Ingersoll clubsponsor the National (BeautificationWeek in town.

The Community Centre isseeking a 200-foot section at the cor­ner of Mutual and Charles Streets,and also the next 400 feet east—pro­perty presently owned by the town. This would provide an area of about600 by 300 feet.But in addition to the new arena, a baseball diamond, football fieldand general sports field, includingpogsibly a quarter-mile track, are seen in the plans for the future.The Centre has already purchased one piece of land near the presentCommunity Centre, and leased cer­tain sections behind the centre sothat in the near future all the park­ing on Charles St. will be eliminated.

THURSDAY, MARCH 2, I960 *Kaive From The Heart”, Is Plea Aa Red Cross Drive Begins What can one man alone accomplish against the world? Lost in this tiny planet whirling in the dark immensity of space, stifled by the growing com- lexities of a civilization still close to savagery, bat­ tered by the struggle for existence, what can one man do to keep alive the spark of human generosity and kindnes. that will warm his heart and set a light to guide his path? By joining his hands with others a man can see realized the good he wishes to perform. By co­ operating with others a man can help to stem the currents of misfortune and ill luck that overwhelm many. Red Cross is a channel for the kindest impulses of each one of us. It is this great co-operative ef­ fort, this response from one heart in concert with millions that makes the Red‘Cross a living symbol of mercy. Each year Red Cross extends the opportunity to everyone of ,us to do something to help others, and, ip the last analysis, to help ourselves. Through its medium we express Canada’s generosity other peoples of the world in dire need; we help our neighbor when misfortune strikes; we lay the foundations for the better health and well-being of our own citizens and the coming generations. That’s why we say, as the annual Red Cross ap­ peal opens this March, “Give generously! Give from the heart!” Keep Fighting in the Ring We Want To See Hockey We took in the last period of the Marlboros — Windsor Junior O.H.A. gajne Saturday. It was good hockey and a good game — until the final whistle. Then, so far as we were concerned, the game was spoiled. First We saw a Windsor player deliberately bring his knee up into the face of a Marlboro player kneeling on the ice, and then everybody was swing­ ing. Everybody, that is, but the two goal tenders who stood calmly by chatting with each other as everyone else tried to knock his neighbor’s block off. And most of the spectators, of course, were cheering for more and more blood. Frankly, if we had wanted to see that sort of thing * we’d have gone to a wrestling or boxing match. These Juniors play marvellous hockey and that is what we wanted to see. We can well under­ stand some player losing his temper in the heat of the play, and swinging in a moment of anger, hut the deliberate kneeing of another player should be severely dealt with. Down at our own arena we watched a player deliberately take a cut at the throat of a fallen player with his skate. He might easily have slit the boys throat. Personally, we would have banned him from organized hockey, but noth­ ing happened to him — the ref didn’t see it And hockey seems to be getting rougher and rougher — on the ice and off. We have managers battling with newspapermen; and hockey players being quoted as saying they'll “get” so and so if it means expulsion from the league. If that parti­ cular player is correctly quoted, we’d ban him from the ice RIGHT NOW. Most spectators, however, seem to like it — adds excitement to the game. It is a sad commentary that even youngsters hoped there might be a fight or two in the game. Speaking of spectators. Recently we had the pleasure of driving Mr. Jack Adams, of the Detroit Red Wings, to Toronto, and he deplored the bad sportsmanship shown by spectators on many occa­ sions at various competitive games. He deplored nasty heckling and name-calling, particularly when the player being lambasted was giving his all on the ice or field. Continual yapping and criticism of both players and management, with insulting words thrown in was bitterly deplored by Mr.Adams. "Usually the guy who does all .the yapping hasn't got two brains to rub together,^! who hasn’t either the guts or a fraction of the ability of the man he is tearing apart," he said, “and the trouble is, you get one guy yapping like that and pretty soon there’s a whole chorus of them. They don’t know what their yapping or howling about — they’re just doing it because it sounds smart,” Well, it doesn’t. And Mr. Adams would very much like the sub­ ject SPORTSMANSHIP taught in the schools, from the lowest grades to the high. Sounds like a real idea. Friendly Face and Wplcome Are Town’s Finest Asset When Chambers of Commerce, municipal coun­ cils, and transportation experts and economists discuss the problems of attracting industry to a particular municipality, they talk about such things as freight rates, proximity to the source of mater­ ial supply, and distribution coats. They arc partly right, for these arc factors which have some part m determining the most economic location of any industrial enterprise. Never, however, underestimate the power of a woman. In recent discussions with several manufacturers who are considering moving their plants from large cities to smaller communities, we were told the big­ gest single obstacle was not the cost of moving, the finding of adequate personnel, nor freight rates, but mwly txxwMriag th* wive* ot wwtate toy employthat Hte hi •mall town was "humaa".On* maauteelurer who had meve.1 to a petal M tnilm <h;U1>W Toronto torn* throe ysere age was U n f t.HVMi to retu rn to th* any toeaua* *!*•* >-f certain his ssscuuvsa wowld not adj Ml them Mtvua l<> life and friend* fa a smaller centre.

They like the people. They like the beauty of the street*. They are impressed with the cleanliness of the town. In other words, they think that’s the sort of place I’d like to live in and raise my children. And if their key executives feel the same way, the industrial progress of that town is sure. A friendly welcome and a friendly face is often a greater asset to a community than a strategic location. pmmdi potatoes 20 ----------m«pl* *yrap, hbc a quart; homemad* broad et 10c * loaf was eager ly sought after.

It Is Most Vital Corner And Should Always Be Clear One day last week we watched trucks and cars vainly trying to make the grade and turn the corner of Charles and Thames streets. Their wheels were skidding on what gradually became almost a sheer sheet of ice. We watched one driver get out of hi* car and wander over to one of the sand pail* — but no sand! Even if nothing else is done our works depart­ ment should ensure that the corner at least is under control at all times. One truck unable to make that .corner can tie the town — and the highway back for mile* — up in knots. It is the most vital intersection in the community. It should be the first to be cleared of snow — no matter what the hour — and the first to be sanded — and kept sanded. And let’s keep the sand pails full. Ingersoll Will Grow, Not Die By Being Off New Highway As The Tribune reported some weeks ago, the new highway from Windsor to the east will miss Ingersoll. It is going to run south of here — accord­ ing to some reports, just below Mount Elgin. There will be some, of course, who will feel that by being off the new highway Ingersoll will pretty well curl up and die. Mr. J. D. Millar, deputy mini­ ster of highways, feels, however, that just the oppo­ site will take place, and Ingersoll will grow. He points out that the new through highway will take away the bulk of the heavy, through traf­ fic, such as freight trucks, which add little or noth­ ing to the town in revenue but pound the daylights out of the pavement as they roar by in the thousands every year. Oakville is the prize example of a town booming, rather than dying, when it was taken off the main highway. When the Lakeshore highway was the only southern route between Toronto and Hamilton, Oakville was just another town on it. Now, with the heavy traffic not roaring through it, it has given a little breathing space, and Oakville in the past few years has grown faster — industrially and from a residential standpoint — than perhaps any other town in the country. We think Ingersoll, too, will grow — not die. What Others S ay : On Right Trail Oxford County farmers were last week on theright trail as they say that allowances and subsidiesand bonuses could not become a permanent part of farm economy. Such special gifts from the Govern­ment are to be made only in times of grievous emerg­ency, such as war and tempest and earthquakes and flood. There has been something like necessity forcontinuing those special gifts after the last worldwar in order that farmers, as a class, should have time to adjust themselves to the conditions. Unfor­tunately, some farmers seemed to be looking forthose gifts to come to them ass something inherent in their business. Many farmers, on the other hand,said plainly that every tub should rest on its ownbottom and every man stand on his own feet and every occupation do its own financing.(Exeter Times-Advocate) Getting Away With It The other day a motorist was seen supervisingthe installation of a spotlight on his automobile. Hehad a special use for it He would teach consider­ ation for others to drivers who refuse to dim theirhigh beam lights when meeting him on highways.Such use of a spotlight would be illegal. But othershad already adopted this kind of reprisal in a des­perate search for some form of protection againstglare-light drivers who blitfti them in passing. High beam lights have their purpose. Wronglyused they can be a handicap. Any driver know* by his own experience that it is dangerous to usethem in passing oncoming traffic. If he has read histraffic regulations he knows it i3 illegal. If he hasnot read them, or if hi* eyesight is so bad that heis helpless anywhere without the high beams, heshould not have been issued a driving license. Theregulations say that “whenever on a highway after dusk or before dawn, the driver or operator of amotor vehicle approaching an oncoming vehiclewithin 600 feet shall use the lower or passing beam of the headlamp on his vehicle.”How effectively is this enforced? One ha* onlyto drive on any highway at night to find out. He will meet with violations by the dozen, and by com­mercial as well as by the private drivers, many ofthem refusing to switch their lights even when signalled. After being repeatedly blinded he maylet his anger outdo his common sense and retaliatein kind. Many do so. The result is anarchy in whichthe innocent parties are often the victims. Theoriginal offender has already gone, and the retal­iating driver vents his revenge on following mot­orists. Where are the highway police while all this isgoing on? How seldom do we sep drivers floggeddown for glare-light passing? The police can devise speed traps or watch intersection behaviour. Withmter-communicating radio they can close in on carthieves or holdup suspects, or be brought quicklyto the scene of an accident Too often that accidentha* been caused by glare-light abuse in passing,and the same officer who let the offender get awaywith it may arrive to take charge after the result­ing disaster to someone else. Glare-light passing is an all too fruitful cause ofthe highway accidents which are killing more than 800 people a year in Onario. It is an offense againstboth courtesy and the law.(Globe and Mail) LOOKING BACKIn the File* of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingaraoll - Ontario SI YEARS AGO Mr. William Dunn, farmer chae**maker, pa**ed away onday, February 26th.

Smith told an organization meetingof the "Buy in Ingersoll Committee”at ths town hall Monday night Themeeting was called, he explained, to line up committees to ensure thatIngersoll voted yes on the questionof liquor and beer stores in Inger­soll. "Wjs’re out to mH Ingersoll tothe farmer outside,” he said. “Thewhole success of thia vote lies in the youth of this community—thosebetween 21 and 40. If this townvotes for liquor sale here, there will be no excuse for anyone of us toshop outside the town.”Mr. Smith said his group was not out to increase sale of liquor here,but to make it unnecessary forpeople to go out of town to get what they wanted. He claimed that mostof the town's merchants favoredliquor or beer sale, or both, here. He said the town market was ruinedwhen the community went dry in1913. He added he knew of people who worked here, but wouldn't livehere because they couldn’t getliquor. “But,” he said, “we're not out tohigh-pressure anyone to vote oneway or another. All we want is thateveryone should vote.” AuniorrsAlE — OF —25 HEAD T.B. TESTEDEASTERN COWS LOT 27. CON. 6. DEREHAM 3 Mile* We*t of Dereham Centre, or 2 Mile* East of Avon, on theN.

SaidMcTaggert. “Thi* guy suddenly hauled off and hit me. I got in a 'couple back.” 'The Centreville coach alleged thatneither the referees nor the Platte­ ville players could produce their offi­cial cards when he asked for th<_ni Iand no attempt was made to deny thischarge by the Plattaville coach al­though he wa* present when it wasmade. Of the referees he said, "They have been refereeing with us all sea­son and they’ve never had any trouble 1before.” t The two officiate were brought idown by the visiting team and said 1ORHA official Albert Qua it after thegame, “When you bring two refs with iyou and they let stuff like that go, < it look* pretty bad.” (Through the first period, when the 1visiting sextette built up a 4 to 1 1 icad i«v*r thr slcwtr, lighter Centre­ville team th* refer** cunxiitently allowed interference by the Platte­ville team to go unchecked a* thevisitors made good use of their heav­ier build.

To mention a few of the new additions, there are two newbooks of special interest for the Len­ten season, The Man From Nazareth,! a« His contemporaries saw Him, byHarry Emerson Fosdick, and AlterYour Life, by Emmet Fox. Both thesemen command the respect of a vastnumber of readers and several of their books are already in the library.Some recent Bibical novels might alsobe mentioned for reading at this time. One is Jfary, by Scholem Asch, and another is the Old Testament storyof Ruth, by Irving Fineman.There is a new book in the library in the Victor series. Thia is the Vic­tor Book of Concertos, and it shouldbe as useful and popular as the one on Operas, and the one on Symphon- Well over 400 books were borrowedfrom the library on Saturday and insueh a quantity it is hard to show anyspecial trend since they ranged allthe way from books on plumbing tothe history of England with plenty offiction in between.

He hung on to a clothes tree inside, started to fightoutside, kicked and struggled whenhe was finally put into the cruiser, refused to let police search him atthe station and struggled when takento the cells.

Blessed is He Who is Happy And Spreads It All Around The measure of any man’s worthto the world is his ability to* suffusesunshine. He may not be a clever man, nor need he be rich or power­ful, but if he is able to make thosearound him a little happier by his presence he is a great man. Man needs sunshine; he needs hap­piness, and the way he seeks it de­cides the kind of person he is. Noone reasonably objects to a man using his brain to amass money, or usinghis. money to amass power, but if heuse8 his money and his power merely for his own enjoyment, or his ownselfish ends, he is going to miss hap­piness. “Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot .keepit from themselves”, says J. M. Bar­rie, a rather selfish reason for beingunselfish, perhaps. But the trulyhappy person is being neither selfish nor altruistic. He is being himself,as he was made, or as he hag madehimself over. For the selfish have at like warmth on the faces of others.Only the sick and dark in mind re­ fuse to respond to the light in themind of the other. For the happinessI speak of is in the mind. It isn’t the surface sunshine bought with a giftor a joke, that departs When the giftor the joke is forgotten'. It isn’t even dependent on an easy life or one thathasn’t known sorrow. It is a contentwith life; a deep down knowledge that life is good, that it was meantto be lived with zest, that the many good things spread before it wereintended for its growth and enjoy­ment. • A Happy person doesn’t dodge thefact that misery is all about him, orthat man hasn’t often made a fool of himself, but he does recognize thatthe ills that man has created can beby man eradicated, and he is willingto offer himself in that service. Hecould not continue to be happy if he neglected to do what he could tospread the content he himself feels.Such happiness is not an uproarious times performed that operation ort thing, not a sparkling, effervescenttheir egos, much to their own satis- *’ ’ v * ... . j—faction and to that of their fellows. He that loses his life gains it, andhe who gives of his happiness gainsthat, too. A radiation from the coun­tenance of the happy irradiates a thing, but more likely to be deepand calm and powerful for good.It is wonderful adjunct to anycharacter for, like mercy, it is twice blessed, blessing him that gives andhim that takes of it. Ex-In^ersoll Man Greets Kiwanians At Galt Meeting Thirty-six members of the Inger­soll Kiwanis and the Ingersoll pipebifid journeyed to Galt Friday nightfor a joint meeting with the Galtand Stratford clubs.

IT IS NOT MONEY ALONE A L than a million and a half people deal with the Bank of Montreal, and they know that it is not money alone they deal in when they come to us. It goes beyond that. These people have confidence in the Bank; they know that their money ts safe with us, and that they will be fairly treated in their business dealings. We tty to keep constantly in mind that the Bank is not primarily an impressive row of figures or an imposing building. We think rather of the Bank as the local man­ ager and his staff, on whom our customers can always call for friendly counsel and service. Our branch-banking system is founded upon this relationship. A man’s relationship with his bank man­ ager is, and should be. a highly personal one. Yet in each of our 549 branches, behind this confidential relationship, there stand the resources and stability of a nation-wide, century-old institution. Thus the strength of the institution is linked with human un­ derstanding in the service of the individuaL I believe sincerely that this is the spirit guiding our relations with the public today. Without such a spirit, the Bank could not maintain or justify its place in the economy of this country, nor would we be able to give our best to Canada in the years of great promise which lie ahead.

This includes good nutrition and properrelaxation, which builds up the bodyresistance, and the avoidance of places where cokb are rife. . Of course, we may not wi^h to get rid of our colds. Many a business rfian has found that a alight illness—“oh,nothing serious, you know; just a cold in the head”—is a far leaserevil than a conference for which heis not prepared. This >s not to suggest that coldsare “faked’’. Dr. Flanders Dunbar,writing about psychosomatic medi­ cine, Jiays the surprising thing isthat so many, faced with an unplea­sant situation, actually do come down with real sniffles and genuine snee­zes. On the other hand, she writes: “A great many of them have been’spoiled brats’ who find in the sickbed the only substitute at their age for the pampering which they enjoyedas children. They have never untiedthemselves from mother’s apron strings. Isn’t it strange how gals suddenly become left-handed when they arewearing a brand-new engagement In the School As long ago aB 1943 the CanadianEducation Association published areport which gave as the most pres­ sing need of educational activity inCanada a greater attention to theheath of school pupils. There are two sides of school hea- What tdwuid be the minimum stan­dard of school environment? Every one of these things is Important in your children’s health: adequatelighting, natural and artificial; ade­ quate heat and ventilation; modern unitary arrangements; hand-waah-ing facilities with soap and sanitary towels; tested and approved drinkingwater supply, with regular examin-1a lion; and clean school premises. | Cleanliness should b< emphasized.There should be a systematic andregular health inspection of pupils, perhaps co-ordinated with the physi­cal education programme. Bat children’e health cannot bo alwayt and only a matter of “look-ing-aftar". They mint be trained. When it comes to teaching health,all the imaginative planning possibleis needed to get the lessone across in a convincing and lasting way. The sad truth is, as revealed inthe survey of health in Canadian schools, that only 6.3 per cent of ele­mentary school inspectors expressed their opinion on factors affecting the health teaching considered the pre­sent methods satisfactory. In the sec­ ondary schools only 18 per cent ofthe school principals were satisfiedwith health teaching the way it is. There were five provinces with noteachers of health in elementaryschools who had the benefit of spec­ ialist study; only 38 per cent of theclassrooms gave health the attention it deserves, and only 16 per cent ofthe schools had health libraries. What improvements can we make? Of course we can’t and must not dis­card the hygiene book. Knowledgeabout the body and its functions is fundamentally needed. But Booksare inadequate. Let’s add to them some practical health lessons. (From Royal Bank Bulletin) M t Elgin Is Busy Place Has Been for Many Years DARLING & COMPANY OF CANADA, LIMITED YOU ALWAYS GE1 J. T.

Another indus­try was the backsmith shop owned and operated by Ira Harris. The same shop serves to this day and isoperated by* Wilbert Young. At onetime there was a grist and choppingmill at the west end of the village which later burned. Two enterpris­ ing chopping mills, one at the north on highway No. 19 owried and oper­ated by Elmer Ritchie and one at the west end owned and operatedby Corbett and Baskett serve the district , „The first churches were the Bap­ tist and the Methodist Episcopal.The latter was a union of the Can­ada Methodist Church, the Metho­ dist Episcopal Church, the PrimitiveMethodist Church, and the BibleChristian Church. The union took place in 1884. This first church wasbuilt in I860 and later burned down.Its brick were made of clay taken from the Cat-tail hill. The secondchurch on he same site was poorly built and was badly wrecked by every heavy wind. This was pulleddown in 1900 and the third and pres­ ent church was erected on the samesite. The land for the first churchwas donated by Ira Harris who also donated the original ground for thepresent Mount Elgin Cemetery.Mount Elgin's first school known as the Red School was situated onemile south of the villsge on the corner of concession five and the old plank road. This school was alsoused in the evenings for a commun­ity singing school, so as far back as tho 1850’s a community spirit wasexemplified, similar to that of the present day. tTeachers at that time boardedaround, for two weeks at a time, indifferent homes. Early teachers were Mr. Bucknell, Mr. jtiercer andMin Barker. This school was torn down and some of the material was used in the erection in 1872 of thepresent white brick public schoolwhich still is in use one-half mile south of the village on highway No. 19.However, parents and citizens felt the need of a school where higher education could be obtained,without he children going to a townby train led to the building in 1922 of the present Continuation school.Prior to this a finishing. school forgirls was held in a cottage now oc­ cupied by Mr. and Mrs.' Bruce Har­vey. This school was in charge ofMary Bodwell, later remembered asMrs. Nicholas Smith. - Some early teachers of the present public schoolwere James Dennis, John Edginton,Lewis Fierheller, Samuel Gill and M. B. Hugill Mount Elgin claims the distinctionof beginning the first Continuation School of Western Ontario underthe teaching and supervision of M.B. Hugill who prepared classes for high school entrance and juniormatriculation as well as teachingother classes in the lower grades. School buses convey pupils tn andfrom school covering a large areaof Dereham Township. Mount Elgin is the centre of the Dereham school area, the first organized area ofWestern Ontario. The latest result of the commun­ ity spirit in this village is the re­ modelling of the old C.O.F. hall into a community centre. Thia was a pro­ ject first undertaken by the FarmForum and later interested the whole community. —From London Free Press Learned from L. K.

WEST GERMANY: When I wrotelast week we were in Denmark. Now| we have crossed over the border intoAllied Occupied Germany. LeavingCopenhagen, the Danish capital, toenter Hamburg, one of the most im-portan seaports in the world and nowthe chief city in this part of Ger­ many, is like stepping out of a tidyparlor into a kitchen after it hasbeen struck by a cyclone. But before I launch into an accountof our two-day tour of post-war Ger­many I’d like to mention a few more points of interest about our stay inDenmark.White the Danes had to put up with plenty of hardships, includingdislocation of their export trade whenthe nazis over-ran their country, they did not suffer as much as someother European countries. TodayAgricultural production in Denmarkis only limited by Danes' ability togrow and buy fodder for their live­stock. From what I could learn, agri­ culture is pretty well back to the pre­war level. There is still some war damage tobe seen in Denmark. Perhaps one ofthe most amazing war souvenirs is a building in the heart of Copenhagen.It wag the Gestapo headquartersduring the occupation and one day a pine and spruce. They had all been hand-planted in light soil. Some ofthe trees were large enough that theywere being cut Dr. Redder told memuch of this is privately owned andis being handled as a crop.It might interest you to know thatHamburg is only 20 miles from the Russian patrols. We didn’t try tocross!It has been quite an experience visiting Germany but we arc look­ing forward to our next countrywhich is Holland, the land of the windmills. After that we return tothe United Kingdom and a visit toNorthern Ireland where Jim Eccles and Ron Marquis will take part insome of the plowing matches. Theyare really eager to get into it alth­ ough it will be our last function be­fore we return home. I’ll tell youmore in my next letter. It's 100-to-l Hou'll like the ■SS3.

THAMESFORD - ONTARIO couple of R.A.F. light bombers swoop­ed down within a few hundred feet of and let go their bombs. So accuratewas the pinpoint bombing that thebombs landed dead in the centre of the building. All the houses aroundremained intact while the explodingbombs wrecked the interior of the building. The walls still stand forall to’ see.During our tour of Denmark we also managed to visit a co-operativedairy, two royal castles, Frederiks-berg and the Elsinore of Hamlet, and a folk school which was one of 60for which Denmark is famous. Themost ancient point we visited was an old Viking temple which, we aretold, was 200 years old when Colum­bus sailed to America. But to get back to Germa'ny. Fromthe time we crossed the Danish-Ger­man border at Schleswig-Holstein(the name should be familiar to acertain cattle breeders association (back home) we saw evidence of war damage on all sides. It increased aswe approached Hamburg and in thatcity we saw what it means to a country to lose a war. Hamburg, where we made our head­ quarters. is a weird mixture. It hasbeen called the city of the living andthe dead. It was once Europe’s great­ est port and the greatest shipbuildingcentre in Germany. Here the Nazisbuilt most of their submarine fleet and constructed great repair shopsto service their merchant fleet. As a result it was one of the main targets for the air forces. Todaymost of the city lies in rubble with more than 60 per cent, of the homesdestroyed, the submarine works havebeen blasted and the shipbuildingplants are practically crippled. The1,000-plane air raids did so muchdamage that the people still haven’t managed to dig out all their deadfrom under the piles of debris. Butlife goes on in spite of the ruin anddestruction.___ Js. some respects the Germans have manged to make a remarkable recov­ery. With the exception of coffee anda few minor things there is no rat? ioning. People do not seem to haveany difficulty getting foodstuffs ongasoline, or anything for that matter as long as they have the marks topay out. In Hamburg the stores arefilled with goods and I was able to get films there that I couldn’t getin England. But prices are very high and wages are very low. The people have tochoose between eating well and be­ing well clothed, for they just havenot the money for both. If they havefamilies they choose the food. Evenin the best hotels we saw very fewwell dressed people-. There is considerable unemploy­ment in the cities, a condition that ismade worse by the fact that an esti­mated 12,000,000 refugees from Eas­tern Germany, mostly older men andwomen and children, have moved in­ to Western Germany and more ar­rive every day.On the farms wo saw few mach­ines. We did not see any milkingmachines. As you have probablyguessed there is little need for Labor­paving machines when labor is so plentiful.
