United State* and Mexico. Fol­ lowing i» Walt Burton1, first At the time of writing this column jwe are all sitting on the porch of Mr. Alton E. Robertson’s beautifulranch outside San Antonio, Texas, I being entertained by his very genialdaughter, Ann, with a nice tall drink of Coca Cola, with at least four icecubes in it, possibly five. I am reallytoo relaxed to count them. The radio is playing soothing music. The tem­perature is at least 105*, but wehave just come in off the range, and do not want to dwell on the temper­ature so we will drop back to the beginning of the operation.The trib to Buffalo was a hub-bub of wild dreams and conversationsuntil arriving at the Customs. This was quite an ordeal after the Cus­toms discovered yours truly had toomuch collateral. After a couple hours of honest lying, they allowed us toproceed. The trip through New York State was much the same as our ownprovince, but on reaching Pennsyl­vania we were dressed in sheep skins with the temperature at a cool 40’.There was a heavy fog and we could barely see the top of the mountainswhich are actually overgrown hills as compared to real mountains. Wefound the highway to be very wind­ ing and all under repairs. On arriving in Washington, oureyes were beginning to open verywide. The White House, Washing­ ton’s Monument, the Pentagon, theaeroplanes, the traffic and most of all, the people—the crowds of them,hurrying here, there and everywhere, no one seemed to us to be going!anywhere in particular, but just hurrying. We did not have an inter­ view with President Truman, but hesent a special representative on a motorcycle to tell us if we did notslow down we would have a week in Washington at the State's expense.From Washington we jeeped on toRichmond, Virginia. There was still plenty of long hills and twisting highways, and we began to see ourfirst American tobacco. The plants seemed to be much the same as ours,with the exception the leaves of somewere much larger.By this time we had been adopted as mascots by the drivers of thetranscontinental Diesel trucks and when I say trucks, I mean largetrucks—the top of the jeep came no higher than hub caps of thesetrucks and when they blew their horns it nearly blew us off the high­way. Besides waving at truck drivers we waved at every car as well asanyone within miles that were vis­ ible to us. From Virginia we entered North Carolina on to South Carolina,where the scenery was at a low nothing but waste swamp land and the odd nice field of tobacco, alsosome cotton, but the mode of living for the natives sure does not ap­peal, as a matter of fact it is about the lowest I have ever seen.On entering Georgia we found things to be much the same as theCarolinas. On the way through we picked up a hitchhiker and had quitea conversation. He rode with usabout 15 miles, did all the talking and had us in a complete state of confusion and left us with quite asouthern accent stood out in ourrich red colour of was really red.From Georgia through the swamplandand I might say that I seen, so many motelsboards in al! my days," espec’ialiy I the signs — •«?.— .

Our first major stop inFlorida was St. Augustine, where we saw the Atlantic Ocean, the Al-ligator Farm, with 'gators’ ranging from one year to 1000 years old.There were also snakes of various descriptions, ostriches and flamin­goes, a very pretty bird.

Next thrill­ ing was to watch the diver on the bottom of the pool feeding theporpoise. ° The temperature was lovely driv­ing along the ocean and the big atop was Daytona Beach. This iswhere Jchn, Bob and myself got S!?r £rst wvere case of “FriedEyeballs’—the bouses, or should Ipak\Ce8i th,® .^tels. th^ motels,Man Oh Man ! 1 ! what a place.

In Pensacola the U.S. Naval Air Armhas full charge of the sky. There are planes, (Harvards), flying allday and night, so far as the navy is concerned, there they are on awartime basis. There was an air­ craft carrier and two destroyersout a few miles from Pensacola going through maneuvers. Anotherinteresting point noticed while driving along the Gulf, were thevarious Mobile Radar Stations, spaced about four miles apart.With the crack of dawn we moved on to New Orleans, only tohave our eyes opened wider to the tune of ocean liners, one fromSpain, another British Honduras.But the highlight of our visit to the seafront was when an Ameri­can Customs Officer asked us if we knew anyone in England, hesaid he knew by the way we walked that we were true “blokes.” Afterhours of trying to convince him differently, we headed back for ourhotel. Our night in New Orleans wasaction-packed. We took a conduct­ ed tour of the night life in a lim­ousine about as long as the town’s ladder truck and black as coal. Wevisited th' e O- r•i g•i na-l Club For- _ . , U high-powered gamblingcasino, also the "French Quarters”, where men are men and we did notquestion any of them. After seeing several floor shows we were chauf-fered home and we then returned to our normal status of living. Oneoutstanding feature of this trip was the way we dressed in our wrinkledclothes, and all wondered about the times we had complained to our“Dear Mothers" about those little black specks on our white shirtsthat no person else could have seen anyway..On leaving New Orleans we moved on to Houston, Texas. Whileenroute we stopped for gas at a French gas station and really hadtrouble explaining to the natives where Canada was. They thoughtTruman was our president and were really suspicious when we toldthem all Canadians did not speak French. The first stop in Texas wasa naval centre called Orange. While in Orange I tried to contact a for­mer Ingersoll girl, Hazel Perault, (formerly Hazel Palmer), but Icould not find her address and as time was running short we rocketedon to Houston, the main point of interest being the “Shamrock Ho­tel”, which is an enormous size. It has a five-storey garage forparking cars, also a Shamrock­ shaped swimming pool, that wassuper deluxe. Bouncing along in true Texanstyle we arrived at our destination, San Antonio. There , were largecheers from the jeep as we mopped the perspiration from our brows.While here John called a friend of his friend, who in the form ofAnn Robertson and her very close friend, Joci Levi, showed us Texasin true Texas style. We rode the range like real cowpokes and whileon the range the moon began to come up over the mountains, theHerfords were wandering all around us bellowing in the dusk ofevening and in the distance the mighty oil derricks with the flamesblazing from an uncapped well. This is truly Texas. It is not a large sand pile as most everyone thinks,but the State that the Texans are proud to be part of and they reallyhave cause to put those stickers on their windshields, "Built in Texasby Texans,” After arriving back at the ranch, we proceeded back to"Paleface Ranch”, where the per­ sons concerned are experimentingwith Brahmas, crossing them with Aberdeen Angus, to create an ani­mal to fully endure the heat. Atthe “Paleface” we enjoyed a lovelyswim with the moon beaming onthe water, this was at 11.30 p.m.Was it ever lovely.With the dawn of a new day, we again were extended some ofthat wonderful Texan hospitalitywhich by now had us quite en­grossed and we .were quickly be­ coming Texans. I won’t go intofurther detail to you readers, this might sound boring due to my in­ability as a journalist, but to we who received this Texan hospital­ity, we say Texans are Our choice of the South. After a very deliciousMexican dinner, we said “Adios” to our Texan friends, saddled upour jeep and headed for Mexico. 1 might add at this point thatwhile in San Antonio I phoned Captain Rowland, an old Ingersollboy with the Salvation Army there, and we had a very enjoyable con­versation. Captain Rowland reports he is gradually becoming a trueTexan. Well this all for now “NorthernNeighbours”, we hope to be able towrite a climax next week if we survive this temperature of 110*to-day.

Okay Broadcast From Here When Centennial Is Held Preliminary plans for an Ingersoll1 Centennial in 1951 are proceedingapace, with various responsible per­ sons being appointed to the commit­tee to study the matter.N. E. Horton of the Ingersoll Cas­ket Co., describing the proposed cele­bration as “an excellent thing", said Roy Crolly, company official, wouldrepresent the company on the com­ mittee which is to meet early in Sep­tember and consider a Centennial.Dave Campbell, of Walker Stores, is representing the Retail MerchantsAssoc., and G.

Around the Town You have heard the stories aboutthe lucky people who buy an old pic­ ture, just for the frame, and thendiscover they have a valuable paint­ing. Now we have .the story’ with a new twist. The other night a gentle­man bought a picture, at an auction sale, just for the frame and discov­ered that behind the painting was a photograph. Well, perhaps it was notso valuable to him, but to us, it was a find. We now have a fine photo­graph of the students of the Inger­soll Collegiate in 1890. Decision on the proposal that mer­ chants close Saturday evening, andremaining open Friday evening, is not likely to be made until a meetingthree or four weeks hence, accordingto Bert Carr, president of the Retail Merchants Association. her mouth!

Mr. Rouloson was chair­ man of the meeting held in the Com­munity HalL A committee of five was appointedto work with the council and draft adefinite program that would provide better fire-fighting facilities in thearea. The committee included; Wil­ liam Small (Harrietsville); AlexWallis (Putnam); Harold Marr (Dorchester); G. L. Shackleton (Mos-sley); and William Campbell (Crum-lin). When the committee, together withCouncil, has examined the situation and drafts a proposal as to howeveryone’s interests will be best ser­ved, then further meetings will beheld. The men will consider the rela­tive merits of establishing a NorthDorchester fire department, or mer­ely improve and increase facilities already available at Dorchester, Har­rietsville and Belmont. B. R. Barr, secretary’ of the town­ship, said that in all their considera­ tions they had to keep an eye on thestipulations concerning government.W hile the government contributes to establishment of new departments, hewas not sure if it assisted where im­ provement of existing facilities wasconcerned.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 3, 1950 Must “Sell” Our Community If We’re To Expand, Prosper A community, like a product, has to be “sold”. If residents, businesses or industries are to be attrac­ ted to a community, they first must be “sold” on the facilities, the beauties and the general advantages that the particular community has to offer. Before a community can even be considered, it must be known; it must be talked about far and wide. There are two main ways of informing the world at large of the merits and virtues and general desire­ ability of one’s own community: one is to push out reams and reams of publicity material on it; the other is to sponsor events that will draw outside people in to see for themselves, and they, in turn, will spread the word, good or otherwise, about your community. An annual event like the twilight races sponsored by the Ingersoll Turf Club helps to spread the name of Ingersoll for miles. The Club is to be congratu­ lated on its efforts, particularly for the recent meet. It was one of the best here, and we heard many say what a fine meet it was, and how well organized, and excellent racing, and so on. The bigger and better the meet becomes, farther and farther the name of Ingersoll is carried. Instead of being just a community lying between Woodstock and London, it gains the name and stature to which it is entitled. Similarly the Thamesford Y’s Men’s Club are to be congratulated for .their efforts in behalf of their community. Their annual garden party, with its contest to name Miss Oxford County, is becoming more and more popular and .people from far and wide look forward to attending the event from year to year. The good name of Thamesford, as an in­ teresting, lively community is being carried farther and farther. In 1951 Ingersoll has a golden opportunity to do the “selling" job of its long history, in addition to having and providing a whale of a lot of fun. Next year this town celebrates its 100th birthday as a corporate body. With everyone pitching in, sharing the work, the enthusiasm and the fun, we can have a wonderful time and at the same time advertise our wares to all. Shouldn’t Mislead The Britons Ingersoll is the Real “Cheesetown” My word, folks, things have come to a pretty pass. A team of British agricultural experts is touring the Dominion studying Canadian fanning methods. Among other things, they expressed a desire to see something of the cheese industry—how that famous Canadian cheese is made. And guess where the British experts—the innocents—were taken—to Woodstock! Can you believe it—and the town that i9 called “Cheesetown” completely ignored! Why, cheese was being made here when Woodstock was nothing but a mosqufto-ridden swamp, where Ing­ ersoll and ‘district men dumped their refuse. We’re told (by Ingersoll experts) that anything Wood- stock knowg about cheese-making was picked up over here . . . We weep at the thought of those Englishmen going back home with the impression that Woodstock is the fount of all cheese wisdom. Another nine miles and they’d have seen the real McCoy. Such Irresponsible Allegations Should Not Be ToleratedSenator McCarthy, of the U.S., is not the type of man, we feel, to have any say in the government of any country. If such exists, machinery to re­ move him from the senate in the interests of his country should be started in motion. Senator McCarthy, you will recall, is the man who got headlines throughout the U.S. by charging that the State and other departments were riddled with Communists or Communist sympathizers. He named numbers. Then he started naming various U.S. officials, big and small, at home and abroad. Some of the latter returned from all corners of the earth to answer Mr. McCarthy’s charges. Out of it all came exactly nothing—nothing but a tot of notoriety for McCarthy, and undeserved smears on the names of some very able men doing a job for their country. And while a committee which investigated McCarthy’s allegations found nothing to substantiate them, the damage had been done—the nation got the impression that Commun­ ists were hiding behind every tree, and that their officials could not be trusted. And those labelled officials will never be able to live down the allega­ tions made against them, because it’s the charge that is remembered, not the denial. Meanwhile, apparently nothing happens to Mc­ Carthy. He made his charges in the senate so he’s privileged. He can say anything he wants about anybody, and none can say boo, let alone sue him '* for libeL To our mind, privileges, which also hold good in our Canadian Houses, is not designed to permit deliberate, irresponsible, untrue character­ ruining statements and allegations. Something should be done about Mr. McCarthy. It is his type that makes good men think twice before entering public service. 51 YEARS AGO Tharaday, Augutt 3, ISM Mr. J. H.

To fight back was, of course, the only course to follow unless the democracies were again to find themselves black-mailed into giving in to every Com­ munist demand until they eventually had to fight or give themselves up. At the moment things are not going too well, except for the North Koreans. But then the at­ tacker must always have the initial advantage be­ cause he has been planning it for some time. He has his advantage only until the attacked catch their breath and begin bringing into play the mighty strength and resources they possess. U.S. leadership in this United Nations effort to stem Communist aggression is a natural develop­ ment in keeping with the U.S.’ stature as No. 1 nation in the democratic world. It is one of the re­ sponsibilities of world leadership. Britain had this policing responsibility for 150 years or more; her troops were fighting someone somewhere every year, it seemed. Her strength made her great but the same responsibility made her poor. We think this Korean affair will be quite an eye- opener for many Americans, among whom were the severest critics Britain ever had in connection with her management of world affairs. And while Bri­ tain was pretty well on her own trying to keep the peace here, there and everywhere, the U.S. is gain- ' ing support from friends everywhere, including our own country. It would have been very easy for the U.S. to say to h - - - with Korea, and simply back up and leave. Instead, they saw their responsibility and accepted it. They will prove themselves cap­ able of wearing the mantle of leadership handed down by the nation from which they sprung. It Isn’t Only Luxuries That Seem To Be Shrinking Have you noticed how the trend is daily turning towards smaller, smaller and yet smaller things? Everyone nowadays seems to be striving to pack more and more into less and less. That they are pretty successful at it must be admitted. Radios have become progressively tinier and a wrist watch radio a la Dick Tracy isn’t at all un­ likely. The specialists are turning out radio tubes that could get lost in a match box, transformers that barely cover a thumbnail, television parts one- tenth the normal size. Small, pint-sized automobiles are becoming very popular. Furniture is getting smaller (and less comfortable say many old timers). A United States firm has come up with a pocket-sized fan powered by two batteries whose combined weight would only get a shudder from a spring balance. There is no doubt about it. Life’s luxuries are shrinking smaller than ever. And It doesn't seem to stop there, this shrinkage. Take the homely, yet lovable, dollar bill. Brother, there’s real shrink­ age for you! SIMOON ltd. MEN'S TRENCH COATS 20.00 to 29.50 Now 11.95 What Others S a y: Maybe The Fault is With the Law The ‘plainsclothes’ traffic policeman had to come sooner or later—and his arrival is entirely our own fault—so why kick about it? The law states that no car must travel at a speed in excess of 50 m.p.h. anywhere, and until that law is changed it is the duty of the police to enforce ft. Everyone slows down on the familiar sight of the black and white cruiser, then steps on the accelerator when it has gone. They are no cure for speeding, the only cure is when any car might house a police officer. T^at way speeding can be cut down. What may be at fault, though, is the law and not the driver. Why should a man pay good money for a car powerful enough to safely travel at 70 or 80 m.p.h., and be forced to do only 50? The best per­ formance of many modern can comes around the 00 and upwards mark. True, there will always be offenders—both know­ ing and unknowing—and of the two the one who is really dangerous is the unknowing one. He is the i man who gets on the outside lane and trickles along at 25 or 30. He forces other, man competent, mot­ orists to take unnecessary chances. Maybe driving tests are at fault, too. AU a per­ son baa to do at present is take the official out for Legislation I* Needed The BB gun is a menace to property. Just thisweek seven lights in Balmoral Park were destroyed“X the .lead pellets. That represents a wastage of$52.50 in hard-earned cash. The inconvenience thatmay be caused to softball enthusiasts and others using the park at night, when lights are required,cannot be figured in dollars and cents. It is costing tile parents of the youth or youths in possession of HB gun8 money every time a pellet is discharged.What parents ought to do is round up the BB gunsand relegate them to a place where thougtless boys cannot get their hands on them.Governments could do much to relieve the distressof the taxpayers insofar as the weapons are con­cerned by making It an offence to manufacture BBguns, let alone fire them. The municipal authorities here ought to pass a by-law making the ownershipof the guns an offence and provide for a stiff pen­alty for an infraction.Recently we observed, and chastised, a group of teen agers firing at bird8 along town streets. It’stime something was done locally to curb this sortof thing. Any action would be better than none. Municipal employees who have to make street light replacements and many others would breathe nsigh of relief. —Aylmer Express__ • Crazy and Dangerous “?d dan»erous fad of cluttering upthe windshield of car or truck with a lot of swayingdoo-dads brings well-merited criticism from theSaskatoon Star-Phoenix It was time something was said about this.Driving today on any street or highway i, a job that calls for constant concentration and unobstruc­ted vision. That is why windshields are made of glass or other transparent material. For the safetyof others, all others who use the highway, as well as the occupants of any car, these windshields shouldba kept clean and clear. Even a small sticker adds,some hazard but these imitation birds and dolls*which dangle in front of the driver's eyes are astanding invitation to suicide and manslaughter.The other day a magistrate fined a motorist whowas attempting to comb his hair and ateo drive. In the interests and common safety most people willapprove of that magistrate’s decision and they wouldalso approve of a similar action against those re.sponsible for these windshield puppet shows. 19 Men’s Worsted Suits A bargain no man can afford to miss.

YOURS TO ENJOY CARLING’S THE CARLING BREWERIES LIMITEDWATERLOO, ONTARIO> tOi««*uw * 0100 A A I R W A Y (CORRECTIVE GARMENTS In The Garden By A. P. Barker As I stand in the garden I cannothelp but look at a lovely Orange Daylily that was kindly given to me last•fall, very easy to grow and certainlya very different flower. Those Phiox you planted last sum­mer are now all in bloom, and what is more dazzling than a few Phloxhtre and there. Some of the newervarieties are very lovely. The delph- • iniums have died down and now youshould cut them down and let them ,get ready to bloom again this fall.It does seem a pity that we have jto see the regal die down, however, in j a garden there is something coming ion all the time to please the eye. i If you have a favorite delphinium jbe sure to save the seed and plant it ]at once. I find that you will get bet­ ter germination that way than keep- |ing it for a long time. Get some regal lily seed thia fall Iand plant it so that you may enjoy aprofusion of bloom in two years. 1 have visited some more gardens iand it is very difficult to pick out any icue better than another, but I did see 1 the most lovely clamatis I have everseen both in color and size, I asked ] how they got such lovely bloom and •the reply was “I am a flower lover”, iguess the rest. Dahlias have started to bloom andnow they need lots of water and fer­ tilizer to produce choice flowers. Youmust trim your plants to one stem toproduce mammoth bloom such as seen at Dahlia Shows.We have been well blessed with rain and keep the ground well culti­vated to hold the moisture.The climbing roses have done , blooming and new growth is coming. 'Be sure to train it where you can j take care of it and not let it hang .over your archway where it mightcutch someone as they pass under. . The first gladioli are in bloom andfrom now on we can look forward to a wonderful variety of colors. Cutthem when the first bloom is out andyou will have a lovely decoration that 1 will last for days as each bud opensup. A lot of the first planting of vege­tables is over now and you shouldhave the second lot in by now for fall use.All the annuals are coming along fast and already some are in bloomand no reason for not having a lovely vase of flowera all the time now.I hope you have all your cactusall out now for a rest and it seems they like to get outdoors, after a longWinter on some shelf in the parlor. Do you drop the odd worm into thegoldfish, well remember they like a tasty morsel the same as we do.I believe the Martins are getting ready to say good-bye already aftera month or two of their continualchatter. The next two weeks I will be on holidays, hope to have somefresh stories for you. Plant a treetoday!

Mrs. Mollie t Landon, 194 Victoria street, Inger- (soli, had watched Edith Spicer tedge her out in the Miss Oxford tCounty beauty contest. Last year < Miss Spicer was crowned queen ofthis county, and irr~her turn con- , tinued on to win the Miss Western ’Ontario competition. <One of the biggest thrills in Mrs. Malcolm Landon’s life, was . that her keen competitor up untilthis year, was asked to make thepresentation to her of a silver trophy and dozen roses.Mollie, aged 21 and very well known in Ingersoll, is employed ina local department store. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. SamCrane, 192 Victoria street, and her husband, Malcolm, is an employeeat the Morrow Company. There are seven children in the Cranefamily; four girls and three boys, but Mollie claims that she is thefirst one to ever enter a beauty competition.After the competition, as shestool shaking with excitement, we checked Miss Oxford County’smeasurements. To us they seemed pretty perfect, height. 5 ft. 3 in.;weight, 118 lbs.; bust, 34 in.; waistline 24 in., and hips, 35.The smiling brunette, said that she would love to enter the MissWestern Ontario competition and that she hopes to do as well asEdith Spicer did last year. "Does modelling interest you?,”she was asked. "Yes, if I was given an opportunity I would like to bea model very much. I have only modelled once and that was forPassmore Store in 1949 in the Ingersoll Fashion Show and I likeit very much.” How did you think your chanceswere before the show? “I wasn’tvery sure,” replied Mrs. Landon. "One thing I never thought wasthat a married woman would take the honours."Just before Miss Oxford County was to return to the stage again toallow the capacity audience at Thamesford to see her in her glorywe asked the new queen if she wore any good luck charm whichmight have brought her luck. "The only thing that I can thinkof is my shoes,” she laughed. You see I bought these shoes for thecompetition last year and my fam­ ily suggested that I wear them, again. When I looked in the paper . after the Miss Toronto contest, 1saw that Miss Toronto, (RubyMann), was wearing shoes similar to mine. Perhaps this is silly, butthey could have brought me luck.” Something, probably her charmand poise, brought Mollie Landon her luck, and after the competitionI the other eight competitors gather­ ed around her with congratulations.Two girls in particular were looking admiringly at Miss OxfordCounty for they were younger than she was and they had placed sec­ond and third. In the eyes of both Miss Pat Johnson, 15, of Centre-iile. and Miss Pat Priddle, 17, of R. R. No. 4, Ingersoll, you couldsee the reflection that someday they might be the happy and proud win­ ners of this competition.Miss Johnson, daughter of Mr.and Mrs. Howard Johnson of Cen­ treville, is entering second form at the Ingersoll Collegiate in Sep- tember; while Miss Priddle is an employee of the Ingersoll Tele­phone Company and is the daugh­ ter of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Priddleof R. R. No. ’4, Ingersoll. Entries in the beauty contestwere Patricia Brewer, 16, of R. R. No. 3, Ingersoll; Pat Johnson, 15,Centreville; (Marylin Granger, 16, Putnam; Shirley Kipp, 15, Beach-vilke; Joan Willman, 17, Tillson-burg; Pat Priddle, 17, R. R. 4, Ing­ ersoll; Mollie Landon, 21, Inger­ soll, and Louise Fruturol, 15,Beachville. Contest judges wereMurray Foreman of Windsor and Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Gregory of New York. HARRIETSVILLE By Mr*.

He started to lookaround and Anally found the bodyof momma skunk lying where it had been hit by a train during thenight. Ed kept hunting about, eventually spotting six familiartails standing up in the grass not 150 feet from the station wherehe spends his days.A brave man, indeed, he ap­proached a little nearer to thetails and there was a mad flurryand they all vanished down a holehe didn't even realize was there.Momma skunk had forced agroundhog to vacate, then had taken over and this little familywas growing up under Ed’s eyes without him knowing a thing about But, at that stage with mommagone, Ed decided he had better do B Jjt , M y MMrttas p«ilf DEFLECTOR fl>ck-Up La» m .......... ,49 $°45 fS iiiti Mtai ....... 1.98 something about it.So, the first night he left a plateof bread and milk at the edge of the hole and left Next morning thefood waa gone. He left another full plate. Again it vanished. Pret­ty soon they'd be -waiting for themeal as Ed arrived and aa he stoodback and watched, the five littlenumbers polished it off In no time. Then as they began to get usedto one another, Ed decided he was going to have them eat while heheld the plate. They were a bit shy about it at first, but gradu­ally got used to Ed, his scent and his voice, and came up to him likeold pals, as though they’d grown up together.If the skunks (still very much inpossession of ALL their faculties),happened to be resting below when Ed arrived with their snack, Edmerely sat at the edge of the hole,thumped a bit, and shouted suchthings as "dinner’s ready, fel­lahs”, or “Come on up, Petunia,"or “wake up, sleepy heads—sup­ per’s ready,” and invariably thefive little orphans snuggled up to Ed, wiping the sleep from theireyes, and then finished off the plateful. They showed absolutelyno fear, in fact positively purred when Ed scratched their backs, orjoggled them about by the tail.Mr. Byerman, very much a na­ ture lover, invited The Tribune outto witness one of his little tete-a-tetes with the little orphans, andsure enough, after a few friendlyI words,, first one white nose, thenanother, appeared out of the hole and set to with gusto.But only two came.Not the five.So Ed is a worried man these days as he wonders over the fate ofthree of his wild but happy littlefamily.

Listen to the Knees Knock As Free Press Goes for Ride HARRIETSVILLE By Harry EisenFree Press Sports Writer Gravenhurst, — We went 120 milesper hour with Harold Wilson and Miss Canada IV Sunday. What? Youdon’t believe it? Folks, that isn't thenoise of castinets you hear, that’s our teeth still chattering and our kneesstill knocking. Now don’t go and get the impres­sion that we were afraid or anythinglike that. Reckless speed has been our specialty since we won the Bordenstreet scooter race in 1919 at the age of four. And when Wilson asked usif we wanted a ride in Mias Canada which is by the way, Canada’s hopein the Harmsworth Trophy races andthe realm of world speed boat racing, we naturally jumped at the chance.Some spectators got the idea that we didn’t care to make the trip be­cause Wilson’s mechanics CharleyVolker and Waiter Harvey had to hold us down while a life jacket wasattached to us. But we were only kid- ■ dmg. Not Nervous . . . Much Then again, when we slipped get­ ting into die boat, the word was pas­sed around that we had collapsed. Aho pay no attention to the storyabout Wilson thinking that he heard a loud knock in Miss Canada’s motorand it turned out to be our heart.Pay no attention to those stories. Actually, we got a terrific kick outof the ride, especially when Miss Canada whizzed into some roughwater and we bounced about threefeet out of our seat. It was the windthat made our hair stand straight up,nothing else, you understand. I The high-pitched whine that somepeople heard, wasn't us. It was Miss Canada’s twin-engine Rolls RoyceGriffon motors blasting out its cream of power. (There’s only one Harry.•—Ed.).Seriously though, we can’t under-' stand why Wilson's hobby is speedboat racing. On land, the Ingersoll sportsman is a cautious almost reti­cent person. But when Wilson stepsin his tempermentul i»park-nozcd craft he undergoes a complete trans­formation. You should see the way his face lights up when he flips thesupercharger and Miss Canada sur­ ges away with a roar, her exhaustpipe belching grey acrid smoke. Real Speed Demon We noticed this a few minutes af­ter we got under way. Miss Canadawas sauntering along about 80 milesper hour, when he pressed a button to give her more speed. And when sheseemed to lift herself ahead in a surge that left our stomach half amile behind us you could almostfeel the flow of satisfaction that ex­ uded from hiin.Frankly, the trip in Miss Canada at 120 rn.p.h. is something we willremember for a long time. We will remember the islands flashing by uslike leaves in a gale. We will remem­ ber the slap, slap of Miss Canada’shull against the waves, as if a thou­sand hammers were beating against her.We’ll remember the wind that rip­ ped at our faces like unseen fingers.Me will remember the feeling we hudwhen Wilson made a skidding turn and a scfentificai term known as cen­trifugal force tried to haul us off the boat. We will remember the flicker­ing needles on Miss Canada’s dash­board as we z?«>mt*d over Lake Mus- koka. We will remember the smallskiffs and motor boats that scurried to places of safety as we shot by* Wewill remember the looks of envy fromthe hundreds of spectators who lined the docks in front of Tom Greavette’sbeat works as we came ashore. Yes, we will remember all those thingsfor a long time. By Bob Turnbull Free Press Photographer The biggest thrill I could imagine.That’s easy. A ride in Miss CanadaIV, Harold Wilson’s and every Cana­ dian’s hope to take the world powerboat speed record and the 1950 Harmsworth. ♦Last October at Picton, Harold said that he could have taken someof the newsmen for a ride except fora shortage of the high-octane gus which Miss Canada drinks by the bar­rel. Saturday afternoon Harold paidoff on his promise and we had our ride.A flip of a lucky coin got me the first ride and I went out with Char­les Volker, Harold’s driver-mechanic,and Walter Harvey Ingersoll mech­ anic who almost acts as nursemaidto the big boat. Siow to start because the motorwas hot from a trial run minutes before, she almost lifted out of thewater as the Rolls Royce Griffon en­ gine caught and threw us forwardhurtling down the Muskoka Lake bayin front of Greavette’s boat house at Gravenhurst. The slap, slap of the boat on the waves, the jet-J&e whine of the su­perchargers and the water blurring past my vision gave me a feeling ofspeed far greater than anything youcan get in a plane or car. Goggles covered my eyes, but itwas as if someone was pulling out my hair as the wind whistled by.Down the bay and back at about 120 rfiiles per hour, the shoreline andislandK zoomed past us. The chop onthe wajier jarred the backbone as the boat flapped her steps along thewaves.*The six-mile run seemed to be over m seconds and the boys waitingon the dock wanted to know “how was it”. You can’t describe the sensa­tions of a ride like that Just the“thrill of a life time” By Mrs. Robert Jeffery Mrs. W. A. Small was hostess for the Mission Circle meeting onWednesday. Mrs. Alf.

Pauline Mitchell of St Fertilize Water Catch More Fish Excessive fishing and Jack of nat­ural fish food is making it increas­ingly difficult for anglers to find trout and other high quality gameand food fish in easily accessiblelakes. This problem can be alleviated by the judicious use of commercial ferti­liser, suggest scientists of C-I-L*sagricultural chemicals division whohave made a study of the fertilityneeds of- lake waters in Canada over the past few years.Fertilizers, they claim, promote the growth of microscopic plant and ani­mal organisms called plankton, themajor source of food for forage type fish. Fertilizer should be broadcastfrom a boat in water of moderate depth. Fertilization of sunny parts ofponds and lakes is important since plankton are more abundant in theseareas. A special fertilizer mixture with analysis 12-24-12 is availablefor lake treatment.Tests have shown that proper fer­ tilization can considerably boost theannual weight increase in a catch us­ually expected from the fish in theunfertilized waters of poor soil dis­tricts. In highly developed farming country, lakes and streams are nat­urally enriched by drainage water from well-fertilized and manuredfields and treatment with fertilizeris not as essential as for lakes in poorsoil areas.

If I wereasked to name which town in Ontario held the best record for sports I wouldwithout hesitation say Ingersoll.Sports, as you know, run -in cycles. For a few years you have good teamsir< baseball and hockey or some other sport and then one sport gives overto the other. Ingersoll ha* turned out some very fine baseball teams in the past andwill no doubt do it again. This town ha, turned out some splendid player*and beside* our own Oscar Judd, ®obl^ Henderson, CharlieKelly and Tee Daniels are names toconjure with when you are speakingof Uncle Sam’s national game. Years ago the Ingersoll Baseball Club used to bring the Toronto MapleLeaf, of the International Leaguehere for exhibition games and al- though Ingersoll did not win thegame the pros did not do any clown­ ing for if they did they would havebeen defeated. I recall one incident when Tor­onto played here when Bob Hender­son just could not be put out, He went to bat four times and each timebit safely. Toronto had one of its best pitchers on the mound at thattime and if memory serves me right,Bob was given a chance to go south with Toronto next season. I cannotrecall what year it was but lots of the old timers could tell you. Bobbywas only a kid at that time but he stood out like a sore thumb for thecrack Toronto hurlers. This is only one incident, but if Ihad the time and inclination I couldgive you many more storie, of the feats of Ingersoll boys, but now itis adioe, farewell and all the rest ofit.
