INSTALL PARKING METERS IN INGERSOLL THIS YEAR
560,000-Gal. Reservoir
May End Water Shortages
Ingersoll’s water supply may be bolstered by constructionof a 560,000-gallon open-air reservoir near the old pump house,2^ miles west of town on the Hamilton Road. Tenders for its
construction have been called.E. A. Washburn, manager of the Public Utilities commission,
figures the new reservoir being considered will end watershortage and rationing in Ingersoll in the forseeable future.The proposed reservoir may be built on a five-acre field
purchased from Stanley Elliott, with the possibility of it beingin operation by June. With concrete walls and floor, the reser
voir would be 200 feet long, by 50 feet wide, by 10 feet deep.The reservoir would make it possible for the town to usea 600-gallon-per-minute deep well near the pumphouse whichcannot be used at the moment because of the water’s tasteand smell.
At present the town gets its water from two deep wells onMerritt St., and from springs out near five points, water from
which flows by gravity through pipes to the pumphouse. However, in wet and mucky weather the water becomes dirty. Thenew reservoir would end this, because the spring water would
flow into it and by aeration and precipitation processes, thesand will drop down.Water from the Merritt St. wells is cleansed of its II2Staste and smell by aerating as it is pumped to the top of theWonham St. standpipe, then sprayed through nozzles, to fall
over wooden baffle plates. The same effect will be created atthe reservoir as a result of the way the water will be forcedto flow through it Water from the new 600-foot well will only
be used, however, when all the other sources are getting low.
Bagged With a Skipping Rope, Too
Frank Teskey, Toronto Star reporterphotographer happened in town just as thethree Meckbach youngsters—Ru th Ann, 6,Lloyd, 7, and Grace, 5,—and their Woodstockfriend, Ruth Ann Palanica, were hauling out
a 20-inch, 3% pound brown trout from Memorial Park waters with nothing but their barehands and a skipping rope. The line forms onthe left for those wanting to fish down therecome opening day, April 29.
Boost Canadian W ay of Life
Urges Cockshutt P. R. Head
Canadians are too complacent
about the security of their way oflife warned Norman Moore, publicrelations head of the Cockshutt
Plow Company, Brantford, whenspeaking to the Senior Chamber ofCommerce at their annual banquet
in St James’ Parish Hall, Mondaynight “Forces are at rork today
to undermine our way of life”, hesaid. “The time has come for rededi
cation”.“Let’s talk of some of the finethings that make up Canada. We havetoo many knockers and too few booster* Let us all get together and talk
about our way of life. Let u8 giveCanada a boost”, be added.“This country”, he continued, “is
teeming with friendly people anxiousto know their neighbors. We should domore East-West travelling and less
North-South and start to bring Canada to Canadians. We must teachCanadians about Canada.
"We have an area here larger than

this without someone casting greedy
eyes on it. Make sure that this price- 1
less heritage—thi8 Canadian way of *
life—that has been handed down to ,
us ia preserved for future, unborn ,
generations.” 1Mr. Moore listed four things every- 1one must do in order to preserve their
liberty and freedom to worship as 1they choose. 1“We must become practitioners of tdemocracy”, wa8 his first point. It is ,not enough to live in a country such 1as ours, he said, but it is necessary ,
to practice it—take part in the com- 1munity life—so that in time of needCanada can present as firm and her- ]
oic front as it did in 1812 at Queen- 1ston Heights.Mr. Moore’s second point was an >
educated populace. “The people living 1here must be educated m our story,” •he said, “they must know what has '
made Canada and be taught the necessity of building a sound superstructure on the foundation that has al- ;
ready been built.Eternal vigilance was numberthree. “It is the price of freedom," hesaid. “We have come to the pointwhere we have to begin telling thegood points of our way of life rather
than the bad points of the Communistic life.“They are well organized,” he
warned, "and don’t believe otherwisealthough they refuse to come out into the open. I have tried on four successive years to get an entry permitinto Russia so that I can see for myself how their life works but havebeen refused every time. Why if
their system operates, won’t they letus see it? We don’t want that kind of
system. We have a system of whichwe can be proud. Let’s talk about it”A revival of religion, Mr. Moore
listed as his fourth ‘must’. “It i8 oneof the strong and enduring foundations on which this country i8 built”
. he said. “Get back to a few of thesimple truths of Christianity. Wecannot survive without it"
Mr. Moore wa8 introduced by^P. M.

For New School
Wait Until Fall
A new collegiate for the ______might not cost as much as was first
anticipated, according to a letterfrom the department of education tothe Collegiate Institute board of Ingersoll district. The letter intimatesthe problem should be gone into againwith all concerned.
However, the board has decided to
take no action at the moment, butrather wait until the fall when theattendance picture will be a little
clearer. There is a possibility certaintownship pupils will not be able toattend if the overcrowding developsas expected.
The department letter, from A. G.Hooper, superintendent of secondaryschools, reads in part —“I am wondering if it would not bewell for your board to discuss yourbuilding problem again with the arch

Taking advantage of the bright
weather of Ingersoll’s first spring
day() townsfolk flocked to the polls
Tuesday to return their town to the
‘wet* status it had 37 years ago.The figure of 3,507 votes cast froman eligible voting list of 4,384 has set
an all-time high average for townwiling of 79.995%, announced townclerk Elmer Winlaw at noon Wed
nesday at the official tabulation heldin his office.The margin itself was just barely
over the required three-fifths majority, being 15 votes over in favor ofbrewer’s warehouse and 19 over for
liquor outlets. It was, however, recalls tax collector Jack Fleet, an evensmaller majority of 12 that oustedliquor from Ingersoll in 1913.
Although interest ran so high onthe two questions before the electors,
Ingersoll returned to its former ‘wet’status quietly, many of the citizensstaying at home by their radios asThe Tribune broadcast spot announcements ori the progress of the balloting. While results were coming in
crowds gathered around a bulletinboard set up by the Junior Chamberof Commerce and only a feeble, spor
adic cheer was heiyd when the finalresult was posted.In the last vote taken, in 1945, on
the question, "arc you in favor ofgovernment stores for sale of liquor?”1.503 said yes and 1,167 said no, the

2 0 0 Meters Soon
To Better Parking
Ingersoll is going to get parking meter*—probably thia
summer.Decision to install the meters, primarily to better theparking situation on Thames, King and certain other bwdne***
section streets, has already been made, and tonight council,in committee, is expected to decide just what type of meter will
be installed, manual or automatic.At a committee meeting last Thursday council heard rep*resentativea of three different meter companies. They included
J. A. Cameron and Laurence Mannell, of Ml-Co Meter, and M.I. Jones, of Dual Automatic Parking Meter Company of Can*
ada.It was decided that a committee including Mayor Dr. J.
G. Murray and Councillor Pembleton, chairman of the pollci*committee, would consider the merits of the various types ofmeters, getting reports from communities with the differenttypes. Woodstock, for example, has both automatic and /nan*
uel meters.Parking meters will be installed on Thames St., King St.,and possibly sections of Oxford and Charles Streets. Meter
company officials estimate some 200 or more meters will berequired here, and while meters are primarily designed tn bet*ter parking conditions in the business sections, it is estimated
they may net the town upwards of *19.000 a year, which wouldgo to repair and maintenance of the community's roads.
Some years ago installation of meters here was approved,but only when Thames St. had been widened. However, It has
been decided that parking conditions have made it necessaryto go ahead with the project as soon as possible.It is felt that installation of meters will do away with the
all-day parker, and give shoppers a chance to park, and dpbusiness, and thus better business conditions too.

Jayceez’ Road Safety Week
la A Praiseworthy Campaign
The Ingersoll Junior Chamber of Commerce, a
young, but very active organixatioh in this com
munity, are to be commended on the decision they
have made to sponsor a road safety week in Ing
ersoll, May 15th-20th. It i8 a curious factor of
this subject that everyone is' willing to talk about
it, condemn those aged cars that run in somewhat
dangerous conditions of repair, yet do nothing con
structive about it.
The project ha8 the whole-hearted support of the
local Provincial Police under Corporal Jack Callan
der and, it is to be hoped, equal support from
every motorist The campaign was not conceived in
any sense as one in which people will be "shown up”,
but to ensure that at least cars passing through
Ingersoll are in good shape, adequate lights, and
can stop in time. The type of check proposed by
the Jaycees is one that would cost you, the car
owner, money if you had it done yourself.
It will be *to every motorist’s advantage to co
operate with the Jaycees and the police when the
week comes round. It is not “smart” to be able to
boast to your friends that you can handle your car
even though the brakes are^poor. Nor is it laugh
able because you can dazzle other motorists with
your ill-adjusted headlights.
There is no adequate defence in a police court if
you are involved in an accident and are found to
have bad brakes. Justice has short shrift with of
fenders of that type. Remember, death ig n» res
pecter of persons: the life you save may be your
own.
When May 15th arrives, let everyone give their
fullest co-operation to the Junior Chamber of Com
merce. You really will feel proud if you can dis--
play qne of their, “checked and found O.K.” stickers
on your windshield, won’t you?
X etes on the Editor's Pad .
The words of Jack Hambleton, well-known Cana
dian wild-life and conservation authority, were still
fresh in Our mind, as the two youngsters came in.
You’ve got to go 2<X) to 250 miles away from Inger
soll to catch a good fish, he said. . . But taftk to
the two youngster, . . . Their young sisters ami
brothers, they said, had just hauled a Mg fish home
with a skipping rope around its neck. They had
seen it in the shallows at Memorial Park and eight
hands started chasing the tired fish about, with
the skipping rope with a loop in it, thrown in for
good measure, and finally they had tackled it, and
now this fish was swimming about the family tub,
and would we come over to see what it was. Well,
being experts, we figured it could be nothing but a
sucker, but we’d bite anyway, so over we went. When
we looked in, we nearly fainted; it was no sucker
the kid, had lassoed; it was a 20-inch, 3Mi pound
German brown trout! It was that big that guys
like Art Nunn, Bill Forman, Don Kerr, etc., would
have had had it mounted, and quit fishing for the
year, figuring they had caught the grandaddy of
them all. To the kids, it was just another fish . ..
The kids incidentally, were Ruth Ann Mechbach, 6,
Lloyd Meckbach. 7, Grace Medebach, 5, and a friend,
Mary Ann Palanica, of Woodstock. The children
of Mr. and Mrs. John Meckbach were showing their
Woodstock friend some of the sights of Ingersoll.
That fish i8 one sight Woodstonians will never be
lieve. They figure they have the biggest fish going.

Summer Band Concert Series >
Is Something Residents Would Welcome
There must be a lot of people in Ingersoll who *
would support welcome — an opportunity to
attend a series of summer band concerts. Music
seems to be one of the items sadly lacking in life in
this community, yet the facilities are here. In
Memorial Park we have a very fine band-stand and
an ideal setting for such afternoons, and within
a 30-mile radius are enough good brass bands to
supply Ingersoll with an eight-or-ten-week Sunday
afternoon concert series through the summer
months.
What more pleasant a summer Sunday afternoon
is there than one sitting quietly in a pretty park
such as ours listening to a concert of music? A
seriea could run continuously or in two parts in
early and late summer. The cost certainly would
not be prohibitive, say $300 for a ten-week series.
An amount which could be regained fairly easily
through sale of programs or collections.
Wo have our own band, then there are bands in
Thamesford, Woodstock, Aylmer, St. Marys, Nor
wich (who have two) and London, where there are
the London Police, London Tech., and All Girls’
bands. Enough right there to give Ingersoll a dif
ferent band each week for ten weeks.
A summer band concert series is one that the
people of Ingersoll would appreciate and support.
It could easily be arranged by one of the service
clubs here, or by almost any other organization. It
is an idea worth serious consideration, and one that
would bring welcome relaxation and diversion to
many people.
“Etaoin Shrdlu”
Often down through the years the consistent news
paper reader has come across the rather peculiarphrase “etaoin shrdlu”, without warning or without reason, while quietly perusing the evening edit
ion. For instance, our readers might on any givenevening be confronted in our editorial columns withthe _foilowing:
“This newspaper is of the firm opinion that Aiderman Buggs is doing a very fine job. Etaoin Shrdluetaoin shrdlu. We base this opinion on . . . and soon.”Now lately a few of our readers have inquiredabout this little newspaper peculiarity, so we’vedecided to break down and reveal the ugly truth.
The apparent reason for “etaoin shrdlu” creepingcosily into a column of type, according to the lino-typist, the man who sets the type on a typewriter
like machine, is quite simple. He will tell you thatwhen he makes a mistake in a line, he clears theerroneous line or slug from the machine by running hia fingers down the keyboard of the linotypein a vertical direction, producing a8 he does so theremarkable phrase “etaoin shrdlu". This line is ofcourse meant to be discarded, though it sometimesisn’t and therefore creeps into the paper.
That, a8 we said, is the apparent reason for "etaoin shrdlu”. But the real reason is entirely different,and here it is. Linotypists are a special breed, and
as such, have a language all their own. "Etaoinshrdlu” simply means “Ah nuts I" In the exampleabove the hnotypist lives in Aiderman Bugg’s ward
and "etaoin shrdlu’’represents his opinion of theAiderman and hi8 opinion of the editor’s opinion ofAiderman Buggs.
If the editor considers that "etaoin shrdlu” is
fair comment on what he has written, the phrasestays in and the reader gqjs it. If the editor doesnot agree, “etaoin shrdlu” is blue-pencilled out of
the proof and the reader is deprived of the comment.It s all very simple, really. — Brockville Recorder-Times.
The Function of a Reporter
A newspaper reporter i8 of necessity an impersonal observer of the happenings of the community.
Officially, iHnatters little to him what action a towncouncil or any other civic body or organization maytake in any given matter. As an impartial observera news item stating one side of a controversy isjust as important as an item conveying the other
side. In other words, he is not a biased witness of'any event. He is interested only from the standpoint of news.Perhaps the actions of a reporter at a meeting
sometimes seem unusual, but they have to be un-usual because he is, as we have said, only an obser-
ver and not a' participant in an event. It wlil benoticed that he does not applaud when a speakermakes some remarks that please the audience. He
does not join in the program unless it is to standwhen the National Anthem i8 sung. He is merelyan onlooker and i8 reporting the course of events,
not solely for the benefit of those at the meetingbut for the whole community.To Pa^?Rj!rBSC a famous poem "his is not to rea
son why. That phrase adequately describes the reporter s attitude toward any assignment he i8 cal
led upon to cover. He should not be expected to takepart in the proceedings unless he is personally interested as a member of the group. — BowmanvilleCanadian Statesman. /

Closing In On Cancer
Time after time we have heard someone say, “If
the atomic bomb could be built in a couple of years
with a couple of billion dollars — why can’t we
buy a cure for cancer?”
A cure for cancer would be cheap at any price.
Unfortunately, however, it can’t be bought. It will
come, in all liklihood, as a result of research. And
— barring accidental discoveries — the end results
of research are attained by the patient building of
fact upon fact.
To carry on research work, funds are urgently
needed by the Canadian Cancer Society. In Ont
ario citizens are being asked to contribute $300,000
during the month of April to be used for research,
educational work and service to the cancer patient
Fellowships have been established to train promis
ing young medical mindg in cancer research, and
these fellowships must be continued.
Cancer is no longer regarded as incurable. Med
ical science can cure some types of cancer, but only
if the cancer iB discovered in time. The tragic gap
between the curable and the cured can be laid prim
arily to the heed for more public and professional ed
ucation. The Canadian Cancer Society is carrying
on a nationwide program to teach the public to heed
the danger signals of cancer.
Many cancer patients are in need of help. Com
forts are provided by the 25 units of the Society
now operating in Ontario and part of the funds
contributed during the April campaign will be used
to further- this great humanitarian work.
Complete cancer control ia still unToneeable. It
is evident, however, that progress ia being made.
Lives are being saved. More lives can be saved with
reasonable precautions. It is hoped that the day
will come when cancer mortality figures will have
If one is to take seriously some of the dire pre
dictions made at the convention of the NationalDairy Council then Canadian agriculture is a prettyfragile industry indeed, unable to stand even a tinybit of competition’.1
Margarine, even in Its present near-white appearance, is of course, the villain. Already, though only
on sale for about a year, it has just about put theCanadian dairy farmer in the poorhouse, according to NDC, and started most of the other kind offarmers on the way.
One wonders how a product that all other countries find safe a8 well as palatable can be so dangerous in Canada.
Margarine has been sold for many years in theUnited States and yet the farmers in that country,even the dairy farmers can scarcely be describedas poverty-stricken. It ha8 also been manufacturedand sold in sueh predominantly dairy countries asHolland and Denmark, in fact its production is a
major industry there, and again agriculture anddaiiying seem to have survived.The National Dairy Council should send some in
vestigators into these other countries and find outhow it is done.(Financial Pott)
Hermann's Treasure
Hermann Goering, the flambuoyant, egocentricright bower of Adolph Hitler in that madman’s gam
ble with fate, proved to be a crafty rogue given tostealing and common theft During the war he collected valuable art from all the conquered countries, and at home hoarded up sums said to represent a vast fortune. But it is now discovered inMunich that Hermann's loot adds up to only tenthousand Deutsche marks, or about $2,600. It was
made up of objects of art hidden under picturesqueVeldenstein Castle.
Portly, be-medalled and paunchy, Goering launched himself on a gaudy,'criminal adventure whereworld power was the goal. He lost. He died at his

that as many chicks will be availableas are requested and can be handled.William Passmore, Pheasant Super

developing a carriage which has all the qualities of a pram, plus the
convenience of “close folding". The new No-Sag Chromium-trimraed

Gendron the most outstanding value for 1950.

One Little Light
Can Mean Much
When a million men and womencarry their light into the darknessand confusion, misinformation and
error, then thia groping old earth ofours will truly come to reflect thebrightness of Him Who is the Lightof the world.
Those who witnessed a post-warceremonial at Los Angeles Coliseum
just after V-J Day can appreciatethe physical accuracy of that statement. More than 100,000 spectators
had jammed the huge stadium to witness a mighty pageant in honor ofthe city’s w ar heroes.
Thanks to the magic of Hollywood,the arena had been transformed intoa terrifying realistic battle scene.
Exploding land mines shook the earth,batteries of army tank* roared across the stadium, a mass formation of
B-29’s swooped down over the watching throng. The noise was deafeningand the effect, thundering and over
powering, as if to emphasize the helplessness and insignificance of thehuman individual in the face of somuch mechanical might
Then something strange happened.Suddenly all the outburst stopped and
stopping to the microphone the master of ceremonies began to speak tothe listening thousands."Perhaps you sometimes say to
yourself,” he began, “My job isn’timportant because if* such a littlejob.’ But you are wrong. The most
obscure person can bo wry important.Anyone here who want* to exert afar-reaching power may do so. Let
me show you what I mean.”Abruptly, the giant searchlightsthat bathed every corner of the Coli
seum were turned off. From day-likebrightness the great arena was unexpectedly plunged into total darkness. Thvn the speaker struck amatch, and in the blackness the tinyflame could be seen by everyone."Now you can see the importance
of one little light,” he said. "But suppose we ALL strike a light!”From all over the stadium came
thv sound of mntchi-3 being struckuntil, faster than it takes to tell,nearly 100,000 pin-points of light litup the summer night
Ewryone gasped with surprise.Quickly and effectively, there had
been demonstrated to them the powerof each single individual.Coming oat of the Coliseum andmaking our way through the crowdstoward the waiting streetcars, wefound ourselves thinking about howcomparatively easy it would be to.
bring peace to a heartsick world ifonly tnourth people would make a|constant effort to spread the light oftruth.

mistake to uncover the bushes toooarly as the stenw msy be injuredby drying winds before the roots become active. Pruning the bushes can
be delayed until the leaf buds showsign, of growth. All damaged woodshould be cut out and stems pruned
to a good strong bud.

It will soon be time to tidy up theflower garden. Any dead stems ofperennials in the borders should becut off at the base and dead annualplants pulled up by the roots. A light
raking of the bed may be made, butgo carefully so that tips of bulbsjust below the surface of the soil are
not damaged. As the weather becomeswarmer, a more thorough raking orlight digging between plants may be
done.In the rose garden some of the out-
the second game, though fighting, strong, the Bisons went down 4-1, giving the series to the Hornets 6-3.

Learning Business Practice
IN Ontario the wheels of industry turn for the benefit of every single
one of us. Our lathes, dynamos, drill presses, farm combines, tractors,
business machines, etc. are producing goods and services which earndollars. These dollars provide food, clothing, medical care and othernecessities which contribute to our security and high standard of living.
Every single one of us, therefore, has a verv personal interest in the flowof a steady supply of trained workers to industrial plants. These workers
will operate machines which are important to our way of life.
We should appreciate, then, the co-operative efforts of government,
industry and labour in the field of employee training. In schools and in
factories our workers, young and old, are raven the opportunity to develop
new and specific skills in every field of business ana industrial activity.
For instance, every effort on the part of office workers to become pro-
icient in typing, filing, shorthand and secretarial work, will mean
p-eater business efficiency—will help to make Ontario a finer place in
which to live and work.

“I may have unconsciously painteda black picture of Ontario’s futuretonight. If so, I’m sorry. I believe in
Ontario and I love it It has takenus between. 50 and 100 years to bringit to what might, pessimistically, be

flooding which annually plagues us.But I believe that in the next 50 yearswith the advances in science and
thinking, we can restore to our provinces a great deal of their formerglories and at the same time main
tain the high standards of living andof agricultural and forest productionwe now enjoy.”
Mr. Hambleton was thanked bySterling Clark.
