Ingersoll’s annual Easter SealCampaign in aid of Ontario’s—and Ingersoll’s crippled children got underway Monday, with the mayor, Dr.J. G. Murray, buying the first sheet of Easter seals. Hig pretty granddaughter. Carol McBeth, 5, of Sal-;ford, sold it to him. She is the daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Murray McBeth. The campaign, sponsored by theKiwanis club of Ingersoll, with R. S.Foster as director, really was launched Saturday when Mif Foster toldof the work being done by the society throughout the province. More than 4,000 letters containing sheets ofEaster seals have gone out to every home in Ingersoll and area, and itis hoped every letter will return witha contribution, no matter how small, in it Mr. Foster urged that everyone use the seals on business or personal ; mail, to spread the good word of the i good work around. I Mr. Foster said: “The average1 ' crippled child in Ontario i8 doomed to' j inadequate care unles8 organizationssuch as service clubs and the OntarioSociety for Crippled Children come to his aid. It is quite possible, withina few short years for a family tospend in excess of $5,000 on a childcrippled with polio. “With funds from the sale of Easter seals, the Kiwanis Club of Ingersoll in association with the Society is able to assist in alleviating cripplingconditions among children. “When you receive your seals I would like you to bear in mind thegreat assistance your contribution'will give some crippled child. For| the past 28 years, one of the majoractivities of the Kiwanis Club ofIngersoll has been the services ren dered to crippled children in this dis-; trict Half of the proceeds from thiscampaign will go to the Ontario Soc iety for Crippled Children for providing appliances, travelling orthopaedic clinics, special transportationto treatment, and surveys to discover afflicted children. The other half willbe retained by the Crippled Childrens'Committee of the Kiwanis Club of Ingersoll for its work in this district.“Society records show that over3,000 children in Ontario receivedclinical attention last year. Not all the cases are charity. But unlessthese clinics are available many child ren would have received this individualized and high competent diagnosis and treatment for their afflictions. i “Be as generous as your meanswill permit—every dollar raised in this campaign will help some crippledchild to health and happiness.” If John J. C. Little, Bell St., had had a shotgun the other morningthere might-have been one less truckdriver in the world today. It was about 6.45 a.m. and youngRoger Reeves had just arrived withM r. Little's London Free Press. Roger was accompanied by a big collie, belonging to a Victoria Ave. resident,which always follows him on hisrounds. Then, relates Mr. Little, the dogran out at a big truck. “The driver turned into him," saidMr. Little, “but the dog got out ofhis way. The dog took another runat him, and the driver steered right into him again—-deliberately tryingto kill the dog. And he succeeded. Itwas a terrible thing to do. No, I did not get his number.”Young Roger, tears in his eyes,loaded ni8 pal’s body on to a sleigh and took him home. Administration of Justice.Police Department ............

Still coughing andwith his eyes still smarting fromthe stifling smoke that greeted him Monday afternoon when he and hismen fought two hours to save JoeWade’s home on Wonham St., Dickgloomily predicted: “There’ll be more yet They always run in cyclesof three. We’ve had four this week This Sunday will be a big day in the lives of Mr. and Mrs. ThomasPage, Charles St. E. They are cele-. brating their diamond wedding anniversary. Sixty years ago they were married at Dereham Centre after a romancewhich started in Sunday school,where both were pupils. Mrs. Page was the former Mary J. Morris. The couple, who say they owe their,Jong years of happily married life, to “behaving ourselves and doing lotsof hard, work,” will be surrounded bytheir family at dinner Sunday. Theyhave two children—Mrs. Ernie Haycock of Salford, and Mrs. Irene Few-ster, with whom the Pages live. They have five grandchildren—Ross Fews-ter, Ingersoll, Max Fewster, Mount Elgin, Mrs. Stanley Nancekivell,Dereham Centre, Murray Haycockand Maurice Haycock, Salford, and12 great grandchildren. Mr. Page was 88 in December andMrs. Page will be 90 in July, but it was only six years ago that they quitworking the family farm at DerehamCentre. Mr. Page was born in Dere ham Centre, and Mrs. Page, near Brockville. She came to Dereham at an early age. Mr. Page began work ing at the age of 13.

Horsman, Ingersoll’s assessor, who will shortly begin herannual check of the 1900-odd housing unit* in the community, reveals thisage business is Something new underthe sun. It won’t be a case of listingMrs. Doe, 45; Mr. Doe, 47; and allthe little Does, 4, 5, 6 and 7, but listing how many in the dwelling lie inspecific age groups. Miss Horsman says Queen’s Parkofficials explain that such informa tion is required so -they can morereadily consider requests for buildingnew schools or even additions.The assessor has to classify eachindividual in age groups as follows':(1), 3 years and under; (2), 4 years;(3), 5 years;' (4), 6 years; (5)„ 8 and 9 years; (6), 10 to 13 years; (7),14 years; (8), 15 years; (9), 16 to 19 years; (10), 20 to 59 years; (11),60 to 64 years; (12), 65 to 69 years;(13), 70 and over. \ If those who have other personsliving in their homes, either as boarders or roomers, would get this infor mation from them before the assessor calls, it would be greatly appreciated. Section (16) of the Assessment Act,reads as follows, “Every person shallgive all necessary information to the assessors, a8 required by them” andSec (22) paragraph 2, reads “Everyperson who knowingly states any thing false in any such statementshall incur a penalty not exceeding$200."

MRS. HYDEN HOSTESSTO TYMPANY CIRCLE Has Any Human Being The Right To Take Life? Within hours of each other last week, two citi zens of the United States wert acquitted on what was termed, ‘Mercy Killing’ charges, and — of course — the perennial question comes to every one’s mind, “Has any human being the right to take life? Some will point to the Bible and “Thou shalt not kill", and dismiss it there. But modern-day living is more complex than it was two thousand years ago. Possibly it is our own fault in not living up to those Biblical standards. Man has so many new found methods of killing at his fingertips now. The whole thing hinges on a human basis — at least, that is the way those who favor a mercy death system argue. Why, they ask, allow an incur able person to suffer needlessly when, with their permission, they can be put painlessly to death. It could, we presume, be done with much the same dis patch as pet animals are put to sleep. No, we are still old-fashioned enough to argue that no matter what legislature were put on any such system allowing legal murder there would be some unscrupulous someone to find a loop-hole for use towards their own ends. We are also still old- fashioned enough to believe in a Divine power to whom all things have reason; and are we, as mere men, big enough to step into His shoes? It is rather doubtful, isn't it? We ran into something that really had us won dering the other day. In common with most persons who have succumbed to the demon tobacco we often find ourselves (particularly at the end of the week) gazing enviously at our non-smoking colleagues and saying to ourselves, “I’ll give it up. I smoke too much anyway.” We find — after closely watch ing ourselves on many occasions — that we are very prone to light a cigarette and then leave it burning into pretty, blue curlg of smoke from the depths of an ashtray. In short, we are alarmed at the vast amounts of money we spend every year, just to make those lazy, hazy trails of smoke in the already stuffy atmosphere of our office. So, itwas with some interest diat we ran across a 25 package of cigarettes. Will the fact that we have five more to smoke with each package mean that that package will last longer, so that eventually we shall spend less of our hard-earned cash on smoking? If, for instance, we normally get through seven packages of 20 a week, will we get through only five of these bigger ones? Maybe we should just buy gum and forget the whole thing. (Note to this note — Mr. Havard is the writer smoking himself to death; not Mr. Lee — he chews!) Mrs. Roderick Williamson, cornerof Carroll and Cherry streets, has received word of the death of herrioter, Miss Margaret Robertson, atthe residence of her sister, Mrs.McDonald, (nee Misa Carrie Robert son), at Edmonton.

These are the Red Cros8 Women’s Work groups, knitting or sew ing, making warm clothes to be sent to the British Red Cross where they will be distributed to the needy people of Europe. There is still a big job to do in rehabilitating Europe. Word from over seas officials of the Red Cross still points out the need of warm clothing for the destitute. The Can adian Red Cross is ready to serve. During the war years a great deal war heard about the Women’s War Work . . . while the gla mour of knitting for the service men is over, the women still work to provide 'warmth and comfort for those who need it. Women's work needs your support during the campaign for funds. You can help turn those big bolts of material and the pounds of yarn into beautiful warm cloth ing for the people whose need is so great, by con tributing to the Campaign for funds which com menced on March 1. Veterans Services, Red Cross Lodges, Outpost Hospitals, Volunteer Nursing Ser vices, Nutrition, Homemaker Service, Swimming and Water Safety, First Aid, Welfare and jpany other emergencies will gain by your support. Our objective in Ingersoll is $3,000. More Hazards Than ExpectedWhen Snow is Thick There is an extra hazard for the poor, unsuspec ting pedestrian in winter in the shape of childrens* sleds. Particularly was this noticeable Saturday morning, when the sidewalks were snow-filled and slippery*. Dead across the centre of Thames St., covering most of the sidewalk, were two of these playthings. One lady, her arms heavy with a load of shopping, all but tripped over them. Another aged gentleman barked a shin on one of them and allthe time people were being Jfirced to walk* around them rather than attempt to step over. Where the children were nobody knew — probably they were in one of the nearby stores. Certainly they made no attempt to move the wretched contraptions* in almost ten minutes. Parents ou^ht to have more consideration than to let their kiddies go down a busy main street, especially on a Saturday, in these sleds, let alone park them in everyone's way. Don’t Wait For Fire To StartDo Something About It Now Four fires this week in Ingersoll homes and bus inesses have caused over $5,000 damage. . This is apart from the distress and discomfiture that is ' brought to the people whose home is the centre of the fire. True, this unfortunate spate of blazes is unusual for a town the size of Ingersoll but it does forcibly drive home the very real and urgent need for everyone — and that means everyone — to ensure the utmost protection for both themselves and their families. * Don’t wait until a fire has started — neither, the Fire Chief nor his firemen enjoy fighting a fire — make sure that it doesn’t start. Be safe rather than sorry. The two main causes of fires are faulty wiring and overheated stoves. Both can and should be prevented. If your house is an old one, check. If you have a stove don't try to get more heat out of it than is reasonably safe. If your pipes freeze don’t use a blow torch — call a plumber. If you smoke, use an ash tray and don't leave cigarettes lying around lighted. And remember, if you do get a fire DON’T try to fight it yourself. Call 100. The fire department is equipped to answer yoururgent plea. Ah, the marvels of modern transportation! Sun day noon we were basking in the land of ever lasting sun (you should see our nose), the land of the orange and grapefruit, the land where every girl is a bathing beauty. Sunday night, at 9 o’clock, we were back home in the land of the great snows, the slippery sidewalks and the frozen water pipes (re-operational courtesy Charlie Long). At 9.05 we wished we were right back in Florida even if the temperature did get as low as 50 (and down south, suh, that’s real nippy). Actual flying time from the deep south (via East ern Airlines’ Constellation) to Cleveland is only five and a half hours, with an extra hour hop via TCA across the lake to London. And it is the cheapest means of transportation, believe it or not. No overnight stays, no meals, no tips, no flat tires, no climbing into upper berths, no lugging baggage all over the place — in fact, a short, sweet trip (providing the weather’s fine). And more and more people are beginning to realize that Florida isn’t a never-never land, strictly for the rich. You can live down there as cheaply as at home — and this weather, it’s much more pleasant. Thousands and thousands, including many from the Ingersoll dis trict, are discovering this every year. Lunch in Florida, tea in Cleveland and the 9 o’clock news at home here — that’s the score. Naturally, we felt a little stupid climbing out into the sultry Florida clime in winter coats, teddy bear suits and parkas. But we didn’t have to feel that stupid because the first two days it poured down and the temperature got down to the mid forties. Believe it or not, we needed heat, and the space-heater was roaring. They say it never rains in Florida, or the sun never fails to shine. In fact, one newspaper, the Evening Independent, callihg itself "The Sunshine Newspaper,” gives away its home edition every day the sun fails to shine. The record i8 180 issues in 39 Mi years, the last time being Aug. 12, 1949. It poured down to the extent of an inch and a half — first rain in over 100 days — when we got there, but no free paper as the sun peeped through ere the day was out That poem about a strange old bird is the pelican, it’s beak can hold more than its er, ah, uhm, stomach is quite true. We saw dozens of the clumsy-looking but graceful-flying bird. They flatter every fisher man in the area by parking just outside of fishing pole range, waiting for the fishermen to catch the fish so they (the pelican) can eat it We never saw a fish caught by any fishermen, but the pelicans always seemed to have Contented looks on theirbeaks. ' Last Saturday we watched the mighty New York Yankees tangle with'the St Louis Cards in the first of the Grapefruit league series. The Yanks won, but the best pitch of the game was tossed by an old Ingersoll boy — Stanley Minshall. Stan is mayor of St ‘Petersburg and is referred to as Hizonner. Hi Zenner’s honor was to pitch the first ball, so he put on a Cardinal cap, wound up fof a moment and let fly. It was a strike (or so the ref said, but there was a pretty strong sun). Prize remark of the game was some kindly elderly lady commenting* on what a cute name for a ballplayer — Naughty Marion. (His name is Marty Marion). And the best sign all through the south — J. W. Fleece, county tax collector. Horace Greeley was wrong when he said go west, young man. He’d never been tiTFlorida.

This is 100,000 more than last winter, a decided rise inthe seasonal unemployment total.Mr. MacNamara states'that the business outlook for most Canadian industries remain, good.

Mrs. Howard Riley,president of the Guild, welcomed thecapacity audiences which attendedthe showings Thursday and Friday evenings at the Parish Hall. As the models—who ranged fromtiny nursery school girls to matrons, from junior-edition cowboys toyoung business men-paraded acron the attractive stage and down theroom-long ratnp, the commentator,Mrs. LeRoy Haycock, pointed out thenews in silhouette, colour, fabrics and trimming detail which markSpring 1960. For the ladies, it is a navy spring, but no colour is forgotten and in theshowings of cotton wash frocks, sport clothes, afternoon, after-five andevening frocks, suits, coats and allwith accessories which complimentedand accented, the picture proved tobe one of flattering and comfortablesmartness. A showing of originally designed and hand-made hate attracted favourable comment. Men’s fashions are proving in creasingly colourful and varied, andwhether in the sport, business orstrictly formal classes. The finale, a wedding tableau,was complete with groom this year,and was a lovely climax to the evening. Special tribute is due the pianist, Mr. Eddie Ide, who. provided background music.

A* a result of a meeting held last night it is ptMiaible that a governingbaseball association for the town ofIngersoll may be formed for the coming, and future, as*sons. Present at the meeting, an informal one, amonga group of interested men to discussthe possibilities—were, Mark Simpson, Lou Martin, Larry Harris, Lefty Cade, Fred Worker, Ham Goeae, E.Thornton, Hertn Lindaey and AlanHavard. More public interest was seen inhardball last season than in manyseasons past and it waB felt that thepresent time was a good one to bringsuch an organisation into existence,to look after all the organized base ball in town from Squirts up to Juvenile and Intermediate (if the latteris formed). Up to now the job has been done by service clubs, primarilythe Y's Men, and the Union, withother local persons doing what they could to help.Membership in the association would be extended to everyone cm thepayment of a set fee which would entitle them to free admission to allhome games, and give them a vote in the decisions of the organization. Contributions by other organizationswould of course be welcome, but will not be definitely solicited. In thisway there can be one central bodyto work out schedules, buy uniforms, provide transportation and so on. Itwould be understood, of course, thata member would be liable to be cal led upon for transportation for ateam occasionally.

The score at the finale was33 to 6 (for Woodstock) but the Ing ersoll girls hope to change this scorein their game Mar. 20 at the Anglican gym.

Beautiful Slides Seen by Pupils By Ruble Young This wasn't a boring week for the pupils of Thamesford CollegiateInstitute.Wednesday afternoon we attend ed Ingersoll Collegiate Institute’sOccupation Day. Then, Thursdayafternoon, the Seed Fair. But to top off the week, Mr. Ken Basset, a local resident from the B. A. station, showed us coloured slides he hadtaken when working in Goose Bay,Labrador.After a brief introduction by Mr.H. W. Brown, Mr. Basset beganwith slides on aeroplanes of alltypes, some of which we had never seen before. Mr. Basset pointed outthe different purposes each was usedfor and also the speed and heights they were able to reach. He showedus some of the buildings where helived. He pointed out that everything, food, clothing, etc., were orderedone year ahead of time and, in areal emergency, it might arrive in eight to nine months.There-was one slide .which wasparticularly interesting, because it was taken in the middle of May,when we, down in Southern Ontario, would be enjoying the soft balmy spring breezes and springflowers. It was a picture of a building half covered with snow and if you looked hard enough youcould see the tops of some jeeps.Mr. Basset also showed us pictures in technicolor, of some f themost beautiful sunsets we had everseen—some in Goose Bay and some in Ontario. We found that the colours in the northern sunsets werefar brighter and more vivid, whileours were light, pastel colours.Rubie Young, secretary-treasurer of the Literary Society, thanked Mr.Basset and the pupils added to her words of appreciation by a loudclapping of hands.

Lt‘t DepartmentDecide Who WillPay the Bill The Departmest. decided the collegiate board at their meeting Tuesday night will say whether an advertising bill of $25.25 incurred by NorthOxford Council for publication of theby-law during the recent school vote shall be paid for by the board.The North Oxford Council apparently think It should. They wrote a letter to the board tothat effect. Said Trustee HarryBower, chairman of the finance com mittee, "This bill was incurred bythe council and they can’t expect usto pay for it.”“The authorization came from this board,” said Trustee Pirie. I“They were compelled by law to ■put the question to the vote,” said the 1 board chairman, E. J. Chisholm. Atthe suggestion of Trustee Bower the ,board decided that the secretary : should write for the department’s !opinion.A salary scale, introduced by Trus tee R. W. Green, provides the follow- Img scale—principal, $5,000 maxi- •mum; male specialists, $2,200 mini- •’mum to $3,800 maximum; female, 5 $2,200 to $3,700; male non-special- «ists, $2,100 minimum rising to $3,700 and female, $2,100 to $3,*00.
