Here we had our biggest disap­pointment. We were not allowed toenter Mexico without a passport and visa of which we had neither. Aftera long discussion with the Immigra­ tion officer we agreed to call it quitsand go home without seeing Mexico, but after a night’s rest we werefound at the bus depot next morningwaiting for the bus to Mexico. We had planned on posing as Americancitizens and getting over that way. During the course of waiting for thebus, yours truly got to thinking of the possibilities of not getting backinto the States and developed quitea case of the shakes and finally turn­ ed chicken, so we hopped into ourchariot and innocently approached the daytime Immigration Officer receiv­ing the same story from him also a blast from the officer who was onduty the night before who frowned on our second attempt at crossing.From Del Rio with the tempera­ture at 120 degrees, which incident­ ally melted the paint on the trailerwheels we swung north through the more desert-like terrain for Carlsbad, New Mexico. The trip up was actually very picturesque, the country wasquite rolling and covered with many small cactus plants surrounded bysage brush. In the distance we could >see the Rocky Mountains, appearing i as a. mammoth wall in the sky. After |100 miles on our way dusk wa8 fall-, ing, we could begin to see the lightsof the cities that were miles in front of us and seemed to drive hours be­fore reaching them. Incidentally, while in Del Rio, we had our firstglimpse of the Rio Grande and lateron the trip we witnessed the junc­ tion of the Pecos River and the RioGrande River. While talking rivers, I might say that the bulk of therivers are dried up in Texas and thefarmers rely mostly on irrigationsystems to keep their crops moist.Nearing Carlsbad, New Mexico, weran into a 'terrific electrical stormwhen the lightning flashed it lit up the sky, and you could see for miles.At this point we became nervous of the spare gasoline we were carrying.We were sure if we got struck itwould blow us to the unpromised land feeling sure you know what I mean.In Carlsbad we visited the famous “Carlsbad Caverns" where we reallyhad our eyes opened. Proceeding down to a depth of 850 feet below theearth’s surface witnessing the mostfascinating formations of rock, a per­ son could see, the temperature re­mained at 54 degrees the year round. On reaching the bottom of the Cav­erns we returned to the surface in 46 seconds and if you don’t think thatis coming up in the world fast I still haven’t caught my breath yet Oneother strange feature of the Cavernswas that every evening at 6.30 p.m.roughly, five million bats fly out ofthe cavern and return in the early hours of the morning. It is just likea black cloud rising into the sky. From here, the Potash fields werenext, and I would have liked to put in a plug for National Fertilizer, butTommy Lee threatened to charge mefor the space. At the Potash mines we witnessed how the Potash israined, processed and stored for ship­ment. One of the most startling events of the trip was from Carlsbad toOklahoma City. While travellingthrough some really hot desert coun­try 150 degrees as the story goes, wecame upon what we thought wa9 thelargest concentration of persons we had seen in one place, Indians, Mexi­ cans, Texans, Americans, snakes, Ha­zards, most everything imaginable, ina long single line approximately 100miles in length. We thought it mustbe a Draft Board or at least a water hole but lo and behold, on reachingthe end of the line there was a largelazy-boy-chair where each person was allowed to read “The Ingersoll Tri­bune” from cover to cover before pas­ sing it on to the next person, (mir­age of the year). Back to our Jeep the open road andfresh air, we found our trip through Oklahoma to be quite dreary even thesinging of the favorite sons of musi­ cal Oklahoma did not lift our spirits.I do believe I would be safe in sayingwe all thought a bit of home. We passed through Oklahoma City atnight and found it to be a very large city, then on to Tulsa which is strict­ly on oil city, the odor of the oilspeaks for itself. Next day found us in Missouri andthe Ozark' Mountains. When here wefound all the big army camps open­ing up, as along the trip everyone thinking that horrible thought thatwar is inevitable. After travelling half way through the Ozarks we gottrapped in an Army convoy of about 25 trucks, there we were,, most of theoncoming tourists thought we were 'battle-weary veterans just home from ’ Korea. As night fell we arrived at StLouis, Missouri, which is also a very i large city. Here we got lost but for­tunately we found one of our big tiansport brothers who guided us tothe outskirts. While travelling by the i city airport that would take up as imuch space again as the town of Ing­ ersoll, we were lured over to the air- Iport by the sound and sight of the Jfour-engined planes, while there got real brave, took a flight over St Louis ■costing $3.50 per hour, this price broke our hearts as well as our poc- ,kets but was really worth it We had , a great view of the city at night alsosaw the St Louis Cardinals play ball 1 from the air. • The next big stop was Chicago, thewindy city, knowing now why. There ' was a north wind blowing consequen- ’tly all that had to be done was follow ■ the odor which led us to the stock 1 yards. Man!! What a place that is. There are more steers there than in <the State of Texas. It is really a > large place as well as Chicago beinga huge city. From Chicago our trip we felt was 1 over having now covered about 6,000miles, with $5.50'for repairs and not even a flat tire. Detroit was as goodas home and did we need to get there, from Carlsbad we had been on ournon-stop flight program which con­ sisted of a heavy early breakfast 9to 10 a.m., driving in two-hour shifts eating on the move, a delicious treatof sandwich spread, peanut butter,milk served by our chef of the pent­ house (the back scat of the Jeep) BobMcFarlan. This eating on the move was our real time saver. At this pointBob and I had become so accustomed to sleeping in the trailer, John on theback of the Jeep that when it wasmidnight the Jeep automatically stop­ped we collapsed into our positionsbeing unconciously comfortable forthe night. Arriving in Detroit, weTexans had our first good shower and shave for myself since Mondaynight, Bob and John also started their razors played a little make be­lieve as far as shaving was concerned. It took us at least half an hour ofscrubbing to become our clean selvesagain. After a few gruelling hours of shopping in Detroit, we found oursel­ves stretched out in lovely clean sheets, very comfortable beds thisbeing too good to be true caused us peat concern. So rather than sleep­ing until a day or two had passed as planned we were up at the crack ofdawn sporting our texas boots, five-gallon hats ready to attack the Can- nuian Customs. This was very un- eventful, the Customs Officer's onlyremark was that it was the first timehe had ever seen real Canadian cow­boys. Bouncing through Windsor on to No. 2 highway we arrived at Chathamtook time to eat, get a haircut, resume our trip arriving in Thamesford withthe thought and memories in mind arriving at this conclusion. It wa9 upit was down, it was cold ft was hot, it was what people said it was not,and if we had the time we would leave again tomorrow on the sametrip, with this thought in mind wesay “Adies Amigos.” Around the Town A printing machinery salesmanvfaltng The Tribune reported that the U.S. printing equipment manu­facturers had been alerted to pre­pare on 30-dnys notice to go into war production.

With a whit­ tled down steel propellor at Graven-hurst, the boat rocketed across the lake faster than it ever had before.Harold wouldn’t say how fast they were going. Some newspapers esti­mated around 159-160 miles an hour.All Charlie would say was “like a comet, boy—like a comet.”The Harmsworth races are Friday and Saturday, Sept. 1 and 2. It is arace between countries and Miss Can­ ada has to win two heats to bringthe trophy here. A special section right on the racecourse has been re­served for Ingersoll rooters, and a special CNR train to carry 400 peoplehas been chartered.

Harold explained to The Tribunethat the reason they had been un­ able to get the big Rolls Royce Grif­fon up to speed was the propellorwas too big. To the layman, the pro­ pellor looks tiny enough for such abig boat, but apparently it was just a mite too big to turn fast enough.They experimented by taking a bit off the ends until it would permitthe engine to turn up to it# fullrevolutions.In the big run last Friday night, the engine ran unleashed and theboat went through the water as itnever had before. How an Ingersoll cheese helped a prisoner-of-war in Ger­ many escape is told for the first time in a letter from Mrs.Nellie J. Lindsey, of St. Thomas.When radio station CHLO, St. Thomas, broadcast TheTribune’s editorial of last week deprecating the fact Englishagricultural experts were taken to Woodstock to see the cheese industry Mrs. Lindsey revealed the story in defence ofIngersoll cheese. She wrote to Mayor Jack Peterson, presidentof the Voice of the Golden Acres, and he in turn kindly wired the most interesting letter to The Tribune.It reads: “Dear Mr. Peterson: Is it any wonder that Ingersoll is huffed overthe cheese question. Ingersoll cheese factory has a history, something toreally be proud of. One of their cream cheeses travelled overseas inthe first World War, helped a boy escape a German prison and got anhonorable place in a book written byno less a personality than Mrs. Nel­ lie McClung.“Like to hear the story—I will make it brief."Mervin Simmons, a boy from Delmer, four miles west of Tillson-burg, enlisted when the war started, went overseas, was taken prisoner,escaped, was captured, escaped again and was recaptured. Then he wrote a letter to his brotheZ"When the sister-in-law read theletter, she said, 'This letter doesn't seem finished. I wonder what elseMervin wanted to say.' Then the stamp came off and under it Mervinhad written, 'Send me a compass, a map of Germany and some Americanmoney in a cream cheese.' “So the brother got the things hehad asked for, drove to Ingersoll and asked the cheese factory tosend him a cream cheese with the things in it. They did and it was onthe way to Germany in a hurry. This time Mervin really escaped andwhen he got to Canada he went to Mrs. McClung and asked her if shewould like to write a book. She said ’why I don’t know, I am writing onenow, what is your story?’ He told her and she said: ‘Indeed I will beglad to write your story. Mine can wait, and so Three Times and Outwas written.“And so the Ingersoll CreamCheese will go down in history. Of course they make good cheese too.“P.S.: I went to school with Mervin with his sisters and brothersat Delmer. We were pretty excited about this trip. Mervin Simmons at­tended High School, Tillsonburg, and is now living somewhere outwest.”Introducing the “cheese” editor­ial, the “Home Town Editor” said: “And now, to end the day, here'sa story of real chagrin. The story 'of the last word in humiliation. Andit’s from a paper that doesn’t everadmit to chagrin or humiliation—The Ingersoll Tribune. "And so, with an odor worse thanlimburger cheese hanging over Ing­ ersoll, this is your Home Town Ed­itor saying that’s all the time there is, and going out to buy a lot ofKraft cheese, because he can’t re­ member the name of the brandmade in Ingersoll.

Mary Ashwell; director of CFPLdrama, produced the show, which proved a refreshing interlude, witha home setting. The home chosen happened to be an Anglican rec­tory; it could just as well have been a manse or a parsonage, for inmost clerical households, though Monday is nominally an off day, itseldom is. Mrs. Wallace has written pleas­antly in a pleasant locale, and some much-needed fillip is given tothe content by excellent characters, and convincing dialogue. More in­cidents could have been includedwithout straining credulity, though at that there were quite a few, in­cluding a rectory wedding on which the celling plaster fell, an unex­pected benediction; a broken church window; a vestry meeting at whichsoma old grievances were aired, and a variety of pariah problemslaid on the rector’s doorstep. Toadmit that the play lacks punch fanot in any way to underestimatethe listening value of this com­ fortable sort of dramatic docu­ment, which proved a relief from the noisily excited type more fre­quently on the air.

But the two recent truck fires at Charlie Long’s repair shop brings to a head once again a situation which from the standpoint of the local fire depart­ ment is neither funny- nor silly. It is a situation which might well be re-examined by a conference between Ingersoll officials and those of the town­ ships of West Oxford, North Oxford and North Dor- . Chester, from which calls for fire-fighting help are most likely to come. Charlie Long lives on Holcroft street—the wrong side so far as Ingersoll fire protection is concerned. His side—the south side—is in West Oxford. The north side is Ingersoll. The folks on the north side are entitled to fire protection; those on the south side are not. Unless the mayor or his official rep­ resentative gives the order. Fire Chief Dick Ellis and his boys cannot give aid to a fire outside the town limits, even if it is only across the street. Some will say isn’t that stupid. But it isn’t. In the first place, if we want to be basic about it, the people in Ingersoll pay much higher taxes in order to have that fire protection. Why should those living outside the town, enjoying much lower, rates, get the protection for nothing? Secondly, if the fire department, as a favor, helps to put out a fire half a street out of town, then it can be asked to go many miles out of the town in answer to a call. And that is where the real dan­ ger lies, so far as the town and its people are con­ cerned. Ingersoll’s fire department isn’t large enough to be able to fight fires in the townships and still have enough strength back in Ingersoll to cope with any eventuality. If a serious blaze broke out in town while the boys were out elsewhere, there is no tell­ ing where the flames would end. All in all, it is not a happy situation. It is not a nice feeling to think that if yourliouse starts burn­ ing no organized fire department can be there to help you. Nor would it be easy for Ingersoll folk to just sit and watch while their neighbor’s home, just across the street, went up in flames. It is an instinctive feeling to help a neighbor in distress. Perhaps the answer would be to expand Inger­ soll's force and equipment to take care of any event­ uality in the town or adjacent townships. The townships would contribute toward the cost of ex­ pansion and maintenance on the basis of popula­ tion or area served. Our suggestion is that the four communities get together before a calamity forces them to. Life is a Wonderful Thing Must We Always Be Fighting? One of these days mankind i8 going to find him­ self exterminated from the face of the earth. Here it is less than five years since the world came up bloody, battered and beaten after six years of horror, death and destruction, and the war is on again, with defence planning boards sitting everywhere preparing for the worst It just doesn’t seem possible that so soon after those six terrible years, with many scar8 still yet unhealed, that man can be preparing to involve himself in another earth- shaking catastrophe which can only be worse than Before. The sight of military equipment streaming through Ingersoll streets is becoming a common one now. But the U.N. action in Korea was the only pos­ sible action. To have bowed out before the North Koreans without a struggle would only have meant an unchecked Communist spread. It was such giving-in that led to JVorld War II. If the demo­ cratic forces are defeated in Korea—and it cannot be contemplated—Communism will have had ad­ vanced, but those behind will realize it will be fought every inch of the way. If the North Koreans are defeated, that, to our mind, will decide if World War III is to be a real­ ity. Mr. Stalin will then be on a spot; he and his forces will either have to swallow and back .down, thus giving democracy a tremendous win over Com­ munism, and possibly starting it on the road down; or, if Stalin throws in Russian forces beside the Koreans, then the war will be on. Either way one looks at it, the chances of a world at peace during the next few years look rather dim. Margaret Rose Should Have A Job of Printing Done Pity poor Margaret Rose. Every time she says as much/is how do you do to some young man, the newspapers go to town and before the day is outsomeone?is saying (in strictest confidence, of course, front "sources close to the palace”) yes, Margaret and the young man are contemplating marriage, and shortly after that, the palace finds it necessaryto reiterate that the Princess is NOT, repeat NOT engaged to anyone. Of course, the wiseacres always take that with a grain of salt (have to deny it, you know—-wouldn’t be proper otherwise), but let the matter drop— until some other young man ia seen saying how do you do fa the Princew outside of church, and away we go again. It’s fun, <rf course, and everyone loves to read ci fair Prine fame and their knights, but we think Princess Margaret eould eliminate a lot of confusion and second-guessing if she bad printed (advt.) a aeries of small posters reading "Friend of Mother’s,” “Friend of FMher’s”, “Poor Relation", and so forth, to be displayed prominently whenever she has a spot of tea or says how do you do to A MAN. Don’t Be Fooled By These Unknown Magazines A case, referred to in the Walkerton Herald, at a young lady who came into that town soliciting advertising for a school magasine~frem some distant town serves as a reminder of the all-too-common practice of "hooking” outside merchants for adver­ tising. The Walkerton incident is not isolated. All over the country—right here in Ingersoll—people con­ tinually solicit advertising for unknown publica­ tions. That they continue their round* is a sure indication that they find success. Many of these so-called salesmen quote ridicu­ lously exhorbitant prices for space, They ate sel­ dom asked for satisfactory proof of the publication of the particular paper or magazine. They gloss over the important fact that the ad wHl be of.no earthly use to the merchant who buys it As they have been in Walkerton so will they come again to Ingersoll. As Ion gas they sell their wares they will come back. To any local persona approach­ ed we commend a refusal to buy. If in doubt, then caR your local paper—they can tell you about most bonifide publications and the relative value of ad­ vertising in them to a local store owner. Your local press is your obvious medium of ad­ vertising, it is read by the people you want to con­ tact. Its rates are the most reasonable. Its cir­ culation and publication is guaranteed. Don’t be fooled into feeling that you are ‘giving a donation to a worthy cause*. You aren’t, you are only wast­ ing your hard-earned money.

It was a very ordinary day for them un­ til a couple of farmers just north of Ingersoll re­ ported finding a couple of chickens—“some were red ones, others, white ones”—cached under some bushes. Obviously some chicken thieves had found things a bit too warm and left them there. They had been there a week when discovered and some were dead and others had broken out and were here, there and everywhere. And they were far from dead. The constables ran themselves ragged for a while, then called on a neighboring farmer for help. Heck, fellows, he said, afternoon is no time to catch chickens—better wait ’til evening. So they did. And ran themselve8 ragged all over again. The two constables covered several miles— by foot—and mostly in circles—until by dark they finally bagged them all. They’re (the chickens) are still sitting up at a nearby farmer’s. Nobody knows whose they are, or who took them, but men­ tion chicken to either Constable Thompson or Camp­ bell and you’re quite likely to get a ticket nations gathered round the Wembley, England. H was the day of the Empire Games swimming meet—a of surprises. The Canadian swimmers— overlooked by the experts—first scored an upset in the women's events, takingfour wins. Next the men’s 100 yard free style fell to Canada* . . . climaxed by four relay victories. The team of 1934 had sweptthe board for Canada’s first Empire swimming triumph! F. What Others Say:of in Era of Hitch-Hikers The habit of hitch-hiking during recent years has grown to such proportions that it has become apublic nuisance, a major traffic hazard, and a badhabit During the war years when transportation wasinsufficient and it was patriotic to give a fellow a ride, there was some excuse for it Today there isnot. Ontario is very well supplied with transportationservices which are not too costly to use. Many of them, incidentally, are suffering from lack of rev­enue by insufficient passengers and the hitch-hikingvogue is not helping them continue these essential services.Hitch-hiking is a degrading form of begging, similar in many respects to the "dime for a cupof coffee” racket we were pestered with in pre-war years. Without doubt most of our travel beggarshave plenty of money in their pockets to pay their own way about but they prefer the parasite’s wayof travel. The traffic hazard they create, especially at nightis tremendous. Many lives have been lost by per­ sistent hikers doing their thumbing in the middle°f the traffic lane, forcing cars into oncoming traf­ fic. It is most disgusting to see children and manyyoung girls following this practice, and often when the motorist showed no inclination to stop, he isthe target of a torrent of disgusting abuse. Young men, who seem to be the greatest part of these tra­vel parasites, would do themselves and other8 a great service if they made more use of their feetand legs. Often they would get there sooner if thetrip is a short one. It may be true that many young people have beenable to travel and see much of the country this way but not much good can be said about this form oftravel except that it is cheap for the rider. It can be mostfldangerous for the motorist. Notmany months ago we were reading of a 'nitin and his wife who were murdered by a hitch-hiker. Werecently heard of a motorist in P.E.I. who was big- hearted and picked up a rider. Unfortunately forthe motorist he was stopped, the car searched by the R.C.M.P. and the hiker was carrying two bottlesof moonshine. They were charged with possessionof illegal spirits and the car confiscated. Many other reasons could be said why hitch-hik­ing should be discouraged and eventually supressed. It is folly to take a stranger into one’s car unlesshe comes with good credentials. Especially in the case of young people it should be forbidden by theparents. Simcoe Reformer. Prosperous Farms Mean a Prosperous Canada Power Farming is the Modern Way of Prosperous Final Solution When the world is all atremble,And everything's in a parlous state, Why dwell on things that trouble one,It’s best the star8 to contemplate. We know at least just where to find them;They keep their own appointed place; Are quite content to be at peace there,And have no thought of a mad arms’ race. We’d like to dwell the stars among,To wander free of all alarmment, To hear no talk of bombs and such Hke,Nor care a jot where the next Red Hne went. We’re tired of wars, both hot and cold ones,We’d like a little bit of peace,But if that’s asking too much wisdom, And wars can never really ceace, Let’s drop our bombs on one another, And fast and furious let them throng,Well then disintegrate in glory, And all can dwell the stars among.Eveline A.

The last five years have been the most prosperous in Can­ ada’s history. Good markets and good prices for farm pro­ ducts have given great agri­ cultural prosperity. Farmers have had the incen­ tive and means to buy goods and services in large volume and this has helped to create more jobs at better wages in industrial areas. New and better machines have made it possible for fewer farmers to produce more in less time with less work and at less cost than ever before. Massey-Harris tractors and power farming machines offer the latest developments in equipment designed and built for modern farming. A group of young boys of the town have left for the IngersollKiwanis Camp at Lakeside.

M. Weir; sec­ retary, Bruce McGregor; treasurer,Walter C. Lock; and directors, Ali­stair Thom, Charlie Stewart and Percy Elgie. It is this committeewhich is meeting tonight (Thursday) to plan the campaign.All of Thamesford and district will be closely canvassed to raise the>5,000 necessary to buy the three or four acres from Alan Noad, and setup the floodlights. McGregor said it was hoped to have the softball dia­mond ready for the opening of thesoftball season next spring. It was hoped, he said, to organise a ruralsoftball league including such com­ munities as Dorchester, Dickson’s andKintore, and to have the league func­ tioning next year the diamond wouldpretty well have to be ready by this fall.The campaign for funds will, getunderway as soon as possible. It is hoped that village residents will don­ate their time and labor in the actualbuilding of the diamond.An advisory committee is to be added to the executive, and this willinclude representatives fpom every organization in the community, suchas the Masons, the Y’s Men, the Odd­fellows, the Women’s Institute and other groups. Everyone is going to beasked to donate to this playing field which will do such tremendous goodin the community by permitting healthful recreation for the boys andgirls.

At thatThamesford will be converted at leastthree years ahead of the Ingersoll system. Church Services ST. JOHN’S ANGLICAN CHURCH Thamesford's vote on a fire truck has been postponed a further fewweeks due to the absence of the soli­ citor advising the village trustees onthe matter.When it was decided thaltte mat­ ter would be put to a vote of thepeople, all the questions were put in the hands of the solicitor. HU briefsuggested that the two townships,North Oxford and East Nissouri, should call the votes in their respec­tive sections of the community. East Missouri's clerk, however, saidthat that was not necessary—that the village could call its own vote of thepeople generally, and if purchase ofthe equipment were okayed, then ask the two townships to pass debentureby-laws covering the amount The matter is now standing untilthe lawyer returns.

Joined by Mike Hominik, the two have unearthed many“treasures” not far from their home-town. They are shown, Mike at the left and Art at the right, with Candace Ca: roll on the scene of one of their finds.Art and Mike nod sagely as Candace, who never dug relics before, shows excitement over a find. Relics “Buried Treasure To Ingersoll Seachers To two local men the terms “relics”and “buried treasure" are the same. The words conjure for manythoughts of temples buried deep ina leafy jungle, guarding heaps of gold and jewels worth a king’s ran­som, or pirate loot on some wind­ swept island.Art Nunn and Mike Hominik, bothof Ingersoll, have different ideas. Tbeir treasure is buried—right undertheir doorsteps almost—but it haslittle value in dollars and cents. Their treasure is Indian relics, which theycollect with avid enthusiasm. Sparc Hours During the spring, summer andfall months, Mike and Art spend most of their spare hours plodding overnewly ploughed fields, their eyes glued to the broken ground or scrap­ing away in' some remote clump oftrees digging careful, mehodical areas away. Their goal is a few moreof those three, four or five hundred­year-old reminders of a people whosehistory was old before Columbus■ learned to sail a ship. Arrowheads lying on the surface,pieces of pottery wrapped in enve­ lopes of clay, bone needles, skin stfra- pers, beads, amulets, all nestling sixor eight inches below the grassy sur­ face. These are the treasures theyseek. ,— A I R W A Y CORRECTIVE GARMENTS We have an experienced lady garment fitter. C. A.

Everywhere onelooks in his home are seen axe heads, flints, arrowheads, pottery discardedbefore Thomas Ingersoll ever decided to found the town where Art nowlives, bone needles, awls, skinners andscrapers, amulets, beads and neck­ laces. Lying side by side, neatly cata­logued, it is difficult to visualize them as they once were—parts of the lifeof a long-dead Indian tribe. Strictly amateurs (Art and Mikeare quick to stress that), they bothstarted their hobby more or less by accident. Three years ago, Art foundhe was putting on too much weight and hia doctor advised lots of walk­ing. Never a man to do anything without a purpose, Art read aboutIndian relics and decided to look forthem on his walks. He stumbled on his “gold mine” and roped Mike inshortly afterwards — originally justto disprove Mike’s sceptism. Arduous Job Discovering the relics is no easy task. The spoils of seven hours’ con­tinuous work often amounts to only half a dozen arrowheads, a few piecesof pottery with decoration etched inthe baked clay surface, maybe a flint or two, an axe head and—with luck—an amulet or charm. There are countless disappointments, too, whenpromising earth-encrusted objects turn out to be stones, pieces of rustyiron or other uslesg junk.There is no set rule telling where to start the search. It may be a clumpof trees or bushes. It may be in thecentre of a field. But there are cer­tainly many places because Art hasnever yet gone more than six or seven miles from his Ingersoll home andhe now has a thousand or more relics. Camp Site One spot—a large encampment—i<s on a high wooded knoll deep in a flourishing farm. Sweeping hisarms, Art demonstrated how the In­ dians picked the spots for tbeircamps. “You see”, he said, “there’sa clear view for miles around. The wmp was built on a hill so than anenemy was forced to attack up ris­ ing ground without cover.”He pointed to a smaller clump of trees some hundred yards away.“That’s their burial ground. We’vealready uncovered one grave and there'll be many more there." Hepointed out a stone path which heand Mike laboriously uncovered, over which funeral processions oncewound. There is no water near the spotnow, but Art pointed to a wide de­pression a few hundred feet distant “It's a cultivated field now,” he smi­led, “but examine the soil. Nut solong ago it was an inland lake. That’s where they got their water.” As* fit Sign He walked over to a r-pot of blackearth showing through the gross. “That’s an ash pit,” be explained, “where they buried their garbage. In there you can find all sorts ofpieces of pottery, needles and other relics. I once found a complete pipe”. How do they select a likely place tohunt? “Well", says Art, “in several ways. For instance, any time I seea spot of black earth in a field, I’malmost certain it’s an ash pit. When you’ve found an ash pit you can betthere is an encampment somewhere around. You can pretty well tell thesize by what you bring out of the ash ifomia.Mrs. Clare Hollenbeck of Silver- woods, Mich., is spending some timewith Mrs. N. Smith.Mr. Wm.

Letters Have ChangedHistory of the World No <>ae knows when the firstletter wti written, or who wrote it, but the letter, ** a form of selfexpression. has existed for thous­ ands of years. Whether wntteu onstone, on wood, or on skin, withthe edge of a sharp flint, a burnt stick or a goose-quill pen. or onpaper with a modern electrictypewriter, letters have changed the course of history. They haveplayed their part in provoking wars, in cementing famous friendships,in closing great business deals, and in the realisation and destruction A business man may be firmly attached to such meaninglessphrases but he may consider part­ ing with them when it is pointedout that they add quite considei- ably to the expense of his letter.Experts have estimated that the average cost of a business letter,including the time spent by the per­ son dictating it, the stenographer,and materials, is slightly more than 40 cents. A Chicago concern hasestimated that the cost of letters amounts to half a million dollars aday in the United States. Short, friendly letters are not only lessexpensive, but are better builders of goodwill than the long, formalkind.—(Royal Bank Bulletin.) or orvaius.Many lasting and lovely ex­ amples of this most graceful andseli-revealing of all arts have rome down to us through the ages. Theletters of Lord Chesterfield to hisson are still quoted as models of educational literature; those ofMadame de Sevigne give a vivid picture of the times of Louis XIv ;and from the letters of St, Paul to the Corinthians grew the founda­tion of the Christian dogma of sal- '*But it is not with the letter as a social grace, a golden link in thechain of romance, or a lasting piece of literature that we are concern­ed in this article. We will attempt to discuss what often seems to bethe stepchild of the art of writing —the business letter.Mail is used for many purposes. Contributions are solicited; servicesare sold; and all kinds of goods, from bobby-pins to expensive auto­mobiles are promoted by letter. One of the outstanding examplesof business built up and maintainedby letters is the great mail orderhouse, whose yearly turnover runs into millions of dollars. You mayimagine the amount of correspon­ dence involved when you learn thatone Canadian mail order house sends out three million main andthree million secondary catalogues All too often the great poten­ tialities of the business letter arenot thought of. Time is short, and letter writing may be looked upona i a task to be performed quickly, with the least effort. , It is safe tosay that the reader reacts to let­ ters written in this way with thesame lack of interest as was orig­inally shown by the writer. The letter which is just “good enough"will very likely have only mediocre results, while a drab, casual lettermay often actually annoy the reader.Few men are in business for fin­ ancial reward alone. Business is ameans of liking, of self-expression and of real self-satisfaction. Theaverage business man is a perfectly normal human being, sympathetic,warm and friendly. He finds it natural and easy to show his real personality in face-to-face con­tacts, but alas! when he sits down to write a letter he changes com­pletely. He bcomes cold, formal ur.d full of phrase* like these: “We beg to advise and wish to stateThat yours has arrived of recent date. We have it before us, its con­tents noted, And herewith enclose thewe quoted. Attached please find as per yourrequest The samples you wanted, and wewould suggest, Regarding the matter and dueto the fact.' That up until novr your orderwe’ve lacked, We hope you will not delay itunduly. And beg to remain yours verytruly.” Plan to Promote Burwell as Port P. M. Dewan, president of the lagersoil Chamber of Commerce,and John C- McBride, secretary, attended a joint meeting of var­ious Oxford County boards of tradeat Woodstock last week to discuss promotion of Port Burwell as adeep-sea port. The meeting was organized bythe Woodstock Board of Trade, which feels that with developmentof the St. Lawrence seaway pro­ ject, Port Burwell wil be just aboutthe only suitable deep-sea site on the north shore of Lake Erie. De­velopment of Port Burwell to that end would have a tremendouseffect upon the economy of this whole area, indeed of Western On­tario, is the Board’s feeling.Last week’* meeting was called to examine all angles of the situa­tion and appoint a steering commit­ tee to go into it more fully. The PortBurwell Deep Sea Waterway* com­ mittee, comprising four members, in­cludes Mr. De wan. Certainly development of PortBurwell as a deep-sea port would have a great effect upon Ingersoll.The quickest highway link between Burwell and other main routes isup No. 19, through Ingersoll. Also, with the C.N.R. main line running through Ingersoll, and a C.P.R.spur linking Ingersoll with Port Burwell, the economic possibilitiesseem almost without limit, At least 60 per cent of Chiang KaiShek’s troops, or about 1,800,000 men, were loat during 1948.

He is well known as a lecturer, as well ss apainter and last year also, com­ pleted murals in the huge hydro­electric plant at Shipshaw, Quebec. Henri Masson of Ottawa, was bornin Belgium, and his paintings hang in the galleries across Canada. Bealso conducts the National GalleryChildren's Classes. Carl Schaefer, water-colourist, is an Ontario man,and the first Canadian to receive a Guggenheim fellowship for crea­tive painting. He is also well known for his war paintings and his workis widely reproduced.The classes are arranged so that mornings are spent in the studiopainting from models and still life. In the afternoon, the students paintout-of-doors, usually at the Yacht Club or at Portsmouth Harbour,where lakecraft of every kind gives a wealth of subject material.Sketching expeditions are also arranged to points of interest suchas Fort Henry and the Rideau River at Kingston Mills. Studentsare encouraged to make quick sketches wherever they happen tobe and this material is later used in picture making.Saturday mornings provide one of the highlights for students andKingstonians alike, when the class invades the open-air market tomake sketches of the colourful stalls of produce and the throngs ofbuyers and sellers. Apparently everyone looks forward to this each Mr. and Mrs. William Robert Bailie,were married at Dorchester Presby­ terian Church. The bride is Alma Jean,daughter of William Court, formerly ofDorchester, now of Toronto, and the lateMrs. Court, and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Bailie, Toronto. the (Museum of Modern Art and the Frick Gallery. One of the exer­cises on returning from the trip was to paint from memory somescene that most impressed them, and it was apparent from the col­lection of sketches that the whole time had not been spent in thegalleries by any means. The course lasts till August 16,when a large exhibition of the stu­ dents' work is held.

Mr. Sutherland retired recently, and heis spending some time with The Tribune, lending his ex­ perience to plans for better serving Ingersoll and itsfriendly neighbors. TRY T H IS FOR SIZE A twin explosion in the shape of Aylmer Juveniles and Til Ison burg Bantams, hurled Ingersoll out of the baseball picture last week and ended what several people had hoped wouldbe the town’s revival in baseball. Particularly bitter was the healthytrouncing taken meekly by the Juve­ niles, at the hands of a team they,themselves had crushed in the last game of their regular schedule. Only!on rare occasions hitting the formthey promised at the start of the year, the J uveniles had started pick­ing up at the end of the league race and it was hoped they would yet pickoff a title. They were a queer team, this year.Their pitching strength was withouta doubt sufficient to handle any teamthey would have met. They had lastyear’s stand-out, Orly Hamilton, Bill Jarrett proved himself to be far ad­vanced to his hurling form of 1949 and Bob Cussons had a curve thatwould have served well in the tightspots. Hitting didn't seem to be at faultNearly all the players had gone through last season together. At thestart of this year, in short, they were as good a bet to cut several distinc­tive furrows in the O.B.A. field as ^anyone around. So what happens?They wallow miserably for a while then, gradually, they pick up speed until the end of the schedule sees-them coming into the straight at a fair clip.- Then, along came Aylmer, to do just what they weren’t expected todo, and wallop Ingersoll two straight.The only really bright spot in thehitting was short stop Stan Wilson who hit a season’s average of .416.Only two or three others managed to keep in the .300’s. One of the things,perhaps, that waatfnissed by the team ■was the fiery spirit of Ron Massey,■who last year clouted .461 and ledthe team in pretty well every depart­ ment. Always in arguments, Ronnevertheless had a lot to do with the fire the team showed in the late inn­ings. The Bantams, of course, didn’thave too many games. Tillsonburg •was just too good for them, and theyoungsters put up a plucky battle. They proved they have a heavy hit­ter in young Lee Naftolin, who besides hitting consistently through the year,hanged out a triple in the second game that paved the way for Inger­soll to break their goose-egg. In the acquatic realm, Ingersoll looks to have the makings of a verystrong team. Particularly amongst the younger ages many fine perform­ances have been turned in. One, for ■■■■■■■■■■■■r Holiday Snapshots GREYHOUND PHOTO SERVICE O Dated Prints • Free Albums O Double Size Prints instance, is young Larry Roas whocurrently competes in the 10 years and under class. He regularly pickshimself off a couple of firsts, and hisaverage time for the free style eventis only slightly oyer the 10 secondmark. / Larry isn’t the only one by anymeans, for we have several very pro­ mising girls and ‘boys. Each of themis getting lots of\tuition, plenty of experience in competitive swimming,and within a couple of years theyshould blend into a smooth, hard-to- be at team of swimmers. Dicksons Win First Game In Playoffs A booming four-master by rightfielder Baigent in the last of the 6th gave Dicksons a one-run edge whichthe/ held over a lively Centreville crew to win the first playoff game4 to 3 at the school diamond Mon­day. Big Bill Barker opened the scoringin the third frame when he singled to drive Ralph Connor home. MaxRiddell’s fast travelling between bases pulled the two teams level asthe Dicksons catcher stole his way round in the fourth. The fifth saw both teams blastout a brace of runs, Barker again sending in both his team’s tallies onanother single. After McKeen was stopped at the plate, Dodds and Kerrcame across to again tie the score. The action lasted right through thegruelling nine innings. In the 7th,Furtney, stretching a safe triple with two away, was tagged at home plateand later Ken Connor got the same treatment in attempting to stretch a double to three bags. Ken Connor’s two doubles in fourtries were best for Centreville, whilst Riddell hit two for three for Dick­sons. Both Wilf Dodds and Bob Con­nor hurled good ball, Dodds givingup 8 hits and Connor 7. Dodds fan­ned 7 and walked 4 and Connor fan­ned 4, giving 3 free tickets.The teams: Centreville: R. Con­ nor (ss), Jim Barker (3b), Titus(c), Furtney (2b), L. Connor (lb), B. Barker (cf)^K.
