It is a pleasant, one-storey, red brick building, and it will make even easier and more efficient thehandling of the mails for Thamesford. All Family Slain In Poland, Seeks N e w Life Here His mother and father and brother exterminated in aconcentration camp during the war, and unable to contact any relatives in Russian Poland, John Kuzewinsky is beginninglife anew in Ingersoll. John, winner of the DFC and Bar and Polish Air Force Medal, loves Canada and everything about it,“and I certainly am not interested in Poland as it is now.” An electrical technician, John, who is 27 and single, cameto Canada in 1948, getting his discharge here. He is now work­ ing for Les Thomell and his biggest problem at the moment isfinding a nice home in which to board. A quiet-spoken, fine- looking chap, John told The Tribune his story, one of tragedy,heartbreak and courage, in between repair jobs. This Saturday, Thamesford’s brand new post office will be opened for business and His Majesty’s mails will be hand­led in new splendor. Here, E. R. Patterson, postmaster) who is pretty proud of the new quarters which he designed him­self, is seen putting in the odd bit of hardware in prepara­tion for the opening. DiKe ij u fviiies in way as lest Then Peddl to Relatives Here Ingersoll Veterans Answ er The Call Ingersoll veterans have been quickto respond to the government’s call for volunteers to serve in the KoreanSpecial Brigade. Already six men have been accepted and will leavetown either today or tomorrow. All, except one, are veterans of the secondworld war, and all have asked to beposted to the special brigade. Oldest of the Ingersoll grouD is44-year-old Cedi Magee. In fact, Cec. is the oldest to: i>e accepted in Lon­don. The burly army veteran was oneof the first to sign up. With him arethree workmates from the New IdeaFurnace Company, Cliff Scott, Frank Walters, and Charlie Wheeler.From the Ingersoll Machine Com­ pany goes Mike Olohan, and youngestof the group is Bob Paton, the son of a second war veteran, Pete Paton,who vows that the only thing hold­ing himself back is a badly fractured ankle.Although others will undoubtedly volunteer, it is these six men whohold the honor of being “First FromIngersoll”. > With them go the best wishes of their friends and towns­people, and a firm desire that their prompt action, along with that ofthousands of other Canadian men,may avert a third world war. DON’T TOSS ROCKS AT SWITCHES — PLEA Kids, please don’t throw rocks atdisconnects and switches on thePUC’s high voltage lines. That’s the plea of E. A. Washburn,manager. The porcelain looks nice and shiny,and make inviting targets, he con­ ceded, but it is also a dangerous andexpensive business. The main pumphouse had to shut down last week because a switch was broken. The "ink-sacs” of cuttlefish yieldsepia pigment used by artists. WALT GETS WHOPPER WIFE MATCHES IT Walt Leaper had a big smile on hisface the other day, at Long Point, as he hauled in a 12-pound pike, areal whopper. Mrs. Leaper wasn’tfeeling, too happy about it because all she was getting was nibbles, and tinyones at that. She was determined, however, that she’d at least matchWalter’s catch before the summer was out. Over the week-end the Leaperswere fishing again, Mrs. Leaper tos­sed in her line and waited. A bite— a big one—and 20 minutes later, apike was m the boat It weighed— guess—12 pounds! The tourney is onagain. With shoe soles curved to the shapeo their bicycle pedals, Bob Sherlock 16, and Joe Livingston, 15, arrivedhere last week after a 554-mile trip from their homes in Westmount, Que­bec. In Ingersoll to visit Bob’s uncle, Ross Sherlock and Mrs. Sherlock,Earl St., the boys are on a trip whichthey expect will total 1,500 miles—and so far it has been wonderful.With kits so compact it was hard to believe they weighed 50 pounds foreach bicycle, the boys carried real camping equipment. A pup tent, withits poles and pegs, 2 ground sheets, 4 blankets, cooking utensils and theirclothes were completely stowed away.Yes, it looks pretty neat—but it took us an hour each to press our clothesin Toronto!” said Joe. So far they have had no troublewith their bikes—not even a flat tire. The weather was <juite good too,with only one day of rain, which theywaited out. “But we did have wind to face all the way and sometimes itwas really tough. We even had to pedal downhill,” they maintained.Despite this they averaged 70miles a day, travelling usually from7 in the morning until 8 in the even­ing. They pitched their tent in pas­ ture fields after asking the farmer'spermission and had no trouble in that way either. Two meals a day weretheir own product; at breakfast timethey “ate out”. They were good meals too. Bob and Joe claimed—except forthat one time they bought bread, tom­ atoes and milk, only to discover thatthe bread was stale, the tomatoes green and the milk sour.We asked if their families had fin- Launch Big Drive For Sports Field PLAYOFF STANDINGS AT AUGUST 14TH Standings in the round-robin play­off series of the Ingersoll and Dis­ trict Softball League are as follows,made up till Monday August 14th.

Bob added sev­ eral paper routes to his own regularone and worked part-time in a gro­cery store; Joe worked full-time ina grocery store.The boys started out with $78 and a careful budget, and stuck to thatbudget too, until they reached Sun­ nyside in Toronto; there they slippeda bit. “But we’re still ahead and eat­ing very well too,” said Bob with a grin, that brought an unconvincingthreat of a board bill from his uncle. From here the boys were going toNiagara Falls and Buffalo and thenback to Toronto' to the Exhibition. Joe has visited the Fails, and Bob theEx, so at both places their will be one experienced guide.Lot8 of planning went into the trip and it has bt>n worth while.

IMembers think their’a is a pretty igood representation for a dub only i five years old. The Mexican govern- Iment apparently is going to put on a big show for the convention. This 1includes seeing a real bull fight. of gas, drive fewer miles per hour. You’ll get there almost aa soon. It is early in the afternoon of Sep­ tember 2nd. Thousands of happy holiday-makers are thronging thesun-drenched banks of the Detroit river. In the special Ingersoll bleach­ers, busloads of local folks are sit­ ting around, excitedly speculatingon Harold Wilson’s chances to wrest the Harmsworth Trophy from theUnited States. Every few minutes a harsh, tinnyroar heralds the passing of dne of the four boats contesting the race.The sound of powerful engines drowns out conversation and eyeswatch the powerboat idle downstream, warming up its huge en­gines, and anxiously scan the coursefor a sign of Miss Canada IV. Far down the river, to the left ofthe Ingersoll bleachers, and almost lost to view in the sticky haze, agroup of sweating mechanics make last minute adjustments to the 33foot Ingersoll craft. Hundreds ofIngersoll folks—thousands of Can­ adians—are here to watch them tryfor the Trophy. It is a team race, and they have to win two heats totake the coveted speedboat crown. Across the river a gun booms, itssound faint and muffled in the after­noon’s drowsy heat Eyes focus bn the yacht club, distant on the oppo­site bank of the river. The loud­ speakers come to life. “There’s thefive-minute signal. Now no boats can cross the line. Any minute you'llhear them opening up ... ”The sound of huge power plantsrevving vibrates across the glass­like water, hanging in the air like those moments that follow the ring­ing of a church bell. Talk dies down a little and people hurry- to theirseats. A river patrol boat buzzes busilyby, making a last minute search for floating bottles; one of which canrip out the bottom of a speedingboat. Again that dull, distant boo-oo- The new-found silence that de­scend* rounds almost unnatural People stop rustling bags, shuffletheir feet uncomfortably. The great engines are revving to a fever pitch, a high scream blendinginto their bass voices. The long redhand on the clock over the yacht club ticks away. 40 seconds, 39, 38,’ Eyes shift quickly between the sweeping second hand of the clock,(seemingly the only object alive inthis still Detroit afternoon), and the four small objects down the river. "Twenty seconds to go," murmurthe loudspeakers.Suddenly the crowd gasps, the fur­ iously turning engines slip into mo­tion, the four boath are moving. Small at first, but swiftly rising,white plumes of spray appear be­hind them. One crosses the line, two cross,“Boom-m-m-m.” The race is on! Now everyone is on their feet,frantically craning necks peer anx­ iously to watch the four boats poundpast the Ingersoll bleachers, their great motors blending into a giantroar. A loud cheer goes up, for theirboat as she flashes by and, as if one,500 heads turn with her to watch the big craft slice easily into thefirst turn. The Harmsworth Trophy race ison. Months of brilliant planning and painstaking labour are over. Thequestion is, will she do it? The crowd settles back, ready to watchthe gruelling nine laps to come, 45miles of water that must scream un­ der tbe hull of one of those boatsbefore she ia declared a winner. Yes, the Harmsworth Trophy.Emblem of supremacy in world’s speedboat racing. Won by a countryand not by an individual, the trophy has been the property of the UnitedStates for a great many years. Areyou going to see the race this year?Are you going to cheer for the Can­adian hope. Miss Canada IV?(More important, have you boughtyour tickets yet? Better hurry they are selling fast and there are only500 of them. Where do you getw.hy ri<ht here at The.Inger­ soll Tribune. When German* Invaded John was about 17 when the Ger­ mans over-ran Poland in 1939, andhis city, Kowel, was right in thepath of the invasion. He had lived there all his life. His father was abig lumber dealer, doing business with nearly all European countries,including Germany, Hungary, Lat­ via, Esthonia. Czechoslovakia and Roumania. His brother’s name was Michael“We were very well off, John re­ called. ...The Germans occupied his city only a couple of weeks, he said, then came the agreement with theRussians, and the Russians took over.They started to arrest almost all the young people, “just on generalprinciples,” and sent them all to Siberia and concentration camps.“Lots of my friends went to Siber­ ia,” he related, “and many of them died there. I decided not to waitfor my turn. I escaped in 1939, just before Christmas.”The escape was organized by acaptain of the Polish army, John re­ called. Sixteen of them—"I was theyoungest”—were in on it. Armed with grenades, revolvers, and twomachine-guns, they split up into four groups and headed for theRoumanian border. "We split up because the border was heavilyguarded and we figured that this way our chances of escaping weregreater. We decided that if we bumped into either German or Rus­sian patrols we’d fight.” Two of the groups did, and fight they did. Four died. A Tough Winter “It took ils ten weeks to make the 250-mile trip,” he related. “Wehad a lot of trouble crossing the Polish mountains. It was winter—atough one—^nd we couldn’t light fires, so we had to sleep in the snow.We had little food. But finally we reached the bprder and surrenderedto the Roumanians. We were sick and worn, but otherwise okay.”The British and the Americans finally got them and about 50 othersto Isanbul, Turkey, and thence to Alexandria, in Egypt. There he join­ed the Polish air force, and some time later headed for Britain—bysea. “It took us 65 days to get there, via Rio de Janerio,” John recounted.“I spent nearly seven years in Brit­ ain.”He became a wireless navigator,flying in Mosquitos, doing 36 mis­ sions in all. John didn’t want to saymuch about his exploits, but admit­ ted he had the DFC and Bar, thePolish Air Force medal and a few assorted gongs. "On our 16th missionwe were hit by flak over Germany," he told, "and one engine was knock­ed out. We just made it back to the English coast, and crashed.”John spent some months in hospi­tal, and his injuries left him withouthis voice for two months. During his rest he went to Cambridge Univer­sity on a special six-months course. He had also taken a two-year elec­trical course in a Polish technical college. Returning to his Mosquitosquadron, he flew on ops until 1945, his last trip being to Berchtesgaden, Hitler’s home.Then he joined the RAF transport command, flying mail, freight andpassengers all over Europe—except to Poland.“I couldn’t return to Poland," he said, "so after my country ended Idecided to come to Canada. You couldn’t take me away now. It is agrand place. I have my freedom and I have opportunity—no man can askfor more. My big regret is tha£. my parents and my brother could not behere, too.” For seven years he was withoutword of his family, though he triedevery avenue. ’ Then in 1947 he learned officially that his family had been arrested in 1942, and had beenslain. “They were killed for no rea­ son,” ,he said. Since then, he hastried to Contact relatives, but also invain, “so I can only conclude that they have been done away with too.” Ingersoll Win, Ham Gets Wet Sweeping the senior diving andbreast stroke events, the Ingersoll Ki-Y swimmers thrashed their rivalsfrom Woodstock 155 points to 127 at Wilson Memorial Pool last evening. After the first 21 events had been swum, and as they were coming upto the senior diving and breast stroke races, the two teams were tiedwith 99 points each. And of course, to complete theevening, Ham Gosse was tossed in fully clothed. He bravely volunteeredan exhibition one and a half gainer from the top board—and left thepool rubbing his stomach!

Roy Haycock was standing out infront of his Canterbury St. house the other evening when a neighbor. PeteShannon, said he smelled something burning, and it seemed to be comingfrom behind Roy’s. Roy took a peek, and sure enoughsomething was burning—his barn.Fire Chief Dick Ellis and his boys rushed to the scene and got it undercontrol. Roy said he didn’t know how the fire started, unless it was a caseof sparks flying up from weed fires he had been tending earlier in theevening. “If Pete hadn’t told me about it, Isuppose the place would have beenburning yet,” he said. - No man ever became a Communist until he has given up al] hope of everbecoming a Capitalist.

Whilst wishing him ’goodbye and good luck’ when he leaves Ingersoll at the end of this month, Ing­ ersoll people will have a tinge of regret that Ham Gosse is leaving. In the two years that he has been with us as general secretary of the YMCA, the town has be­ come far more Y conscious than it ever was before and it is due almost entirely to the energetic work of the genial navy veteran. Juvenile baseball, swim­ ming, classes, physical activities, all have received countless hours of his time. Teen-town meetings, Y-sponsored organizations—there is a long list of activities that he has helped to a good start And always he has been ready to lend an experienced hand when difficulties arose. The task of building up the Ingersoll Y was not —still is not—an easy one, and Ham has much to his credit His promotion to the post of general secretary at Niagara Falls is a worthy one and one of which he is well deserving. ' And when he goes, we know.that Ham will be­ queath to Al. Clark, his successor, a wealth of in­ formation that will enable him to continue and en­ large Ham’s good work. rnuve* to last WOO years. But if your still wor­ried of what will happen after that, he’s still mightyreassuring. “We’ll grow fuel,” ho said.“We'll raiseit just like vegetables in fact, we’ll probably usethe vegetables. Vegetation from an acre of land win keep a car going for a year. The sun is the real source of power, and unlesi someone holds an um­ brella over it we’ll never run out of power. Don’t discard your car yet." That’s a mighty nice plant General Motors have up at London to turn out diesel engines, although it would have locked much nicer here. Ah well, some Ingersoll boys are working in it, anyway. We enjoyed a wonderful luncheon, courtesy of GM, and saw through the plant, which is pretty terrific all right, and it wa* put up and had begun^producing dteeels within a year after the first sod was dug. Our biggest surprise was to learn that that huge 14-foot, 14 >>4-ton, 1,500 horsepower dieeel motor which takes up one-third of the train doesn't drive the darn thing after al); it just provides the power to develop electricity, which turns the traction motors, which drive the gears, which turn the wheels, which make the train go. And those trains can go, too. Soon, one a day will be produced at London, and soon the old steam-driven locomotive will be as scarce as the horse on the street^ today. Gee whizz, it’s getting so you can’t leave your ear picked these days and expect to find ft in the same place. A friend of ours who owned a little English car took it up to the diesel plant opening at London. He pushed it into a small corner and headed for lunch. Suddenly he recalled he had for­ gotten something, and hurried back. No car. He hunted everywhere—even under some of the bigger cars—but not a trace. Then,-away over in an equally obscure corner, he saw it. In a spot where he couldn’t possibly have driven at that time. And when he, started asking questions, he learned the answer. One of the boys on a travelling crane had seen it parked, thought it belonged to a member of the staff, threw a chain around it, lifted it up and swung it into the other corner. When our friend’s language had subsided, he threw another chain around it and swung it back again.

If a tip were not so obviously expected more people would perhaps feel more inclined to add a little to the bill for good service, but far too many waiters look on tips as an obligatory part of a customer’s visit. Try going into a big hotel and putting down the exact money when your bill arrives. You are im­ mediately made to feel a complete outsider, obvious­ ly sailing far out of your class. If you go into a big store, take up a great deal of a salesman’s time deciding what you want, you don’t add fifty cents or a dollar to the bill ‘for service’. Yet the service he gives you is as much as a waiter. Taxi drivers in the bigger communities expect one to give them a hand-out for doing the job they are paid to do. Porters on trains, attendants in diners, stewards on ships, all expect a fat tip. They are paid to do that work, and if the pay is not to their liking then let them go look for a different job. Airlines, the most modem of our forms of trans­ portation, have the right idea. The service accorded you on an aircraft is comparable with the best in the world, yet tips are prohibited. Why? Because the airlines pay their help sufficient wages to do their job without forcing them into parasitic ex­ pectations of gratuities .for their services. The sooner hotels, restaurants, taxi companies, railways, climb aboard that particular bandwagon the better the public will like it They can be forced to do it too, if people would only realize the need­ lessness of tips. If we didn’t tip the help, the management would be forced to pay them a living wage or lose their help. A group of bridge fiends we know got tangled on a question of procedure the other night, with every one of the four having his own view on what the ruling should be. They finally decided that the only way to settle it was to put it up to a recog­ nized bridge authority, so they wrote away to one of the world’s experts and sat back and waited. A ■•few days later came the brief note—“Yes. Fee for advice — $15.” The answer settled the bridge tangle, but the charge for the advice set the steam off again. They decided to write another letter — this time to a lawyer, on whether or not they had to pay. The lawyer’s letter arrived shortly, also brief and to the point — “Yes. Fee for advice — $15.” The four bridge fiends are now, to put it mildly, fit to be tied. Eight luscious southern "queens" arrived at the home of Melvin Paterson, R.R. 2, Ingersoll the other day and the place is really humming. The queens were from Mayhew, Miss., and they arrived in their own private compartments, enjoying little or no difficulty with the customs or immigration folks at the border. As you might have guessed by now, these little numbers were bees, and it was the first time we had seen how they travelled — eight cents of postage, on two bundles of four containers, and the eight “queens” were transported over 1,000 miles to here, courtesy of His Majesty’s mails. Gordon Pat­ erson, Melvin’s brother, introduced us, and by put­ ting one ear Up to the containers it was obvious the queens were still very much alive after their’long jaunt. (Their buzz has NO south'n accent). Melvin explained that most queens were raised in the deep south — warm climate, he guessed. There is one queen to each colony, and after a couple of years or so when the queen loses her sex appeal, and the colony begins to slow down a bit, she has to be replaced. As a matter of fact, she’s executed, but it’g not a big loss monetarily because you can get a top-notch queen for 75 cents. Melvin warns, however, that you mustn’t let the brand-new queen out amongst the gang too soon or the others might kill her. And it IS a case of BO, too. She has to be kept in lier travelling case until she absorbs the same scent as that of the colony over which she is about to reign. Melvin mentioned, too, that honey production has been slowing down during the past few years and he hopes these southern queens will put a little zip into file organization, and the honey will really flow.

In short, they have plenty to do without people —particularly youngsters—causing them a little extra work. We refer, in particular, to the smashing bf streetlights. A light bulb is a most attractivex target for a catapult, an airgun or just a plain hunk of rock, and too many youngsters are finding it so. These youngsters include those who qhould know better, too. Every time a light bulb is smashed it costs approximately $4 simply to replace the bulb. . But the PUC men have to take the time to replace it, and that costs money too. So, fellows, when you get the urge to throw something—don’t use a street­ light as a target. You can be charged with destruc­ tion of public property, in addition to the bashing you're quite likely to get at home. A local lady got herself a bit of a scare last week —and a local hubby came in for a bit of rough pas­ sage. The lady decided it was hig-h time she got rid of some of the heaps of rags, old newspapers, magazines etc., that were cluttering up the cellar. So one morning she gathered them up, stuffed them in the furnace, and set fire to them. A clean, safe, sanitary way to dispose of unwanted rubbish. Un­ fortunately the wrong things started happening, and before long the whole house was filled with dense, highly aromatic smoke. The pipes were down for the summer . . . Who got the blame? Yes, that’s right. Us poor men have a rough burden to bear, don’t we? Mrs. Herbert Odell passed awayat the family residence. Lot 13, Concession 1, West Oxford, Tues­day morning.

After hearing now and then stories’to the effect the world was going to run out of gas and oil any minute now, and contemplating whether to sell the car now while the market was good ntrd get a bi­ cycle, it was moot assuring to hear Charles F. Ket­ tering, one of the great practical inventors of the age, at the opening of the Diesel plant at London Friday. “Bom Ket,” who retired as General Motors* research bead in 1947, says North America has fuel Let's Have More Trees “One of the unhappy traditions of North Ameri­ can cities >» tbat trees have no place on commercialstreets.” That statement comes from the Edmon­ ton Journal which would like to see trees plantedon downtown Jasper Avenue, just as a lot of Tor­ ontonians would like to see the trees back on theirUniversity Avenue. One doesn’t have to visit either of these thorough­fares to confirm the Edmonton paper's opinion.With a few notable exceptions, city councils in this country seem to have the same feeling for treesas that of their pioneer forefathers. At the dropof a hat they will turn loose a bunch of power saws and down come elms, maples, and oaks that havetaken from 50 to 75 years to grow. In street widen­ ing, or the laying or repairing of water mains andsewers, or even to make way for a string of un­sightly poles, the trees are sacrificed seemingly without compunction.There seems to be a mistaken belief that bust­ness and trees cannot get along together even inour tiniest hamlets. Those who hold that opinionshould visit some of the biggest and nost beautiful cities in Europe and South America or at leastget 8CT«e picture postcards of these places. Therethey will find plenty of broad business streets lined with trees. The grand boulevard of Puris, for in­stance, has a double row for milet, and as for retailbusiness, it flourishes with the trees as helpers for shade and shelter.

Now, too, is the time to remember, and observe, the fishing regulations. There’s a reason for them. The number of fish available for each season is estimated. The authorities then balance this against the expected number of fishermen to establish catch limits. This is done for your protection to provide a continuing supply of game fish for the future. To permit full growth, minimum lengths are set for various species of fish which may be taken. Take Black Bass, for example. The maximum hatch allowed in Ontario is six per day knd the minimum legal length is 10 inched. Only by observing regula­ tions like these will you be sure of enjoying this sport in the Aiture.

Hughes Alaska-Honolulu, Non-stop That’s the Killdeer’s Record By M. E. Cropp Chips, small stones, ashes—what­ever is handy, will suit a pair ofkilldeer to mottle a small patch of bare earth, so that the spotted eggslaid in the centre of it will be in­conspicuous. Killdeer nest in the middle oftheir food supply. They search the surrounding garden or ploughedfield for worms and grups, and later, for mosquitoes and various insectsdamaging to the crops. Killdeer eggs are clay colouredand mottled with black spots. Theyare more than twice the size of rob­ins’ eggs, though the birds are thesame size. This is because young killdeer are much more fully devel­oped at the time of hatching than the young of nest fed birds. Youngkilldeer are like baby chicks, alreadycovered with down at birth, and soon able to follow their parents about.A nest recently photographed was made in a potato patch not far fromthe river, and camouflaged with chips from a nearby woodpile. Morecare than usual with these birds was exercised in the forming of the nest,probably because of the ease withwhich chips can be manipulated.Usually the nest is merely a depress­ion in the ground.When anyone approached the nestthe mother would slip away and then put on a great fuss, spreading herwings and beating them against the ground, and showing her pretty pinkunderwear, to lure the intruder in the opposite direction.Two of the young were hatched the first day and the other two thesecond. On the second day, the twooldest, when alarmed, would get up on their shaky legs, run a few feedaway, and crouch motionless upon the ground. Unless one followedthe movement with the eye it was very hard to locate them, their mix­ed-grey down making them quite in­conspicuous. When the danger was passed, the mother would call themback to the nest. Next day they were gone.It is quite impossible to take an unobtrusive'walk on the river flats.I seldom get more than one foot through the fence when a nervouskilldeer starts to shout, “Killdeer,killdeer, killdeer”. Then, as I ap­ proach the river, excitement mountsand the cries are more agitated, “Killdeer, killdeer, killdeer, kill­deer 1!’’ And finally they are reduced to an hysterical, machine-gun stac­cato of sound, “Dr dr dr dr dr dr!” I sit down beside the river to waitfor the noise to subside. Half a dozen killdeer form a ring around me.“Seeeeeeeeec?” croons one bird.“Deeeee-ar, deeeee-ar,” moans a second.“Tut tut tut”, says a third. We are all silent Slowly I rise,and bedlam breaks loose.“Killdeer, killdeer, killdeer, kill­ deer, killdeer, dr dr dr dr dr dr,”they .shriek, dipping and diring an zooming about my head.'Killdeer are long distance fliers. On the west coast they take off inthe fall from Alaska, and fly non­ stop to Honolulu. Among the ancient Jews betrothal was formal and binding as marriage. MOUNT ELGIN By Miss B.

For 27 years the League has spon­sored a standard of adequate wiring which, though a minimum for normaland anticipated use, guarantees electrically-fit homes—the Red Sealstandard of adequate wiring. A non-profit, educational serviceorganization, the League with offices at 4 Carlton Street, Toronto, is rep­ resented in more than 200 cities andtowns in Ontario with Red Seal representatives attached to localHydro offices; and offers wiring in­ formation, assistance in wiring lay­outs, and inspection and certificationof completed wiring systems free of charge. The Red Seal representativein Ingersoll is Harry Burton, of Ing­ersoll Public Utilities Commission.Overloading of inadequate wiring systems contributes largely to theinconveniences of blown fuses, in­ efficient operation of appliances and can result in many of the hazards ofelectric living, the League pointedout. With the growing use in Ontario of appliances and equipment ofhigher wattage many home owners are finding their home electricsystems are outmoded. 'Bhey lookenviously at those who have alreadyinstalled labor-saving devices muchtoo heavy for their inadequately wired homes, says the League, whils others are blindly installing inade­quate wiring in new homes not an­ ticipating that in a few year* theytoo may want to install appliances they now feel they cannot afford.When you consider it may cost three or four times as much to ren­ovate home wiring M the ownersaves in original inadequate wiring,it is only common sense to wire th*Red Seal way now, one spokesman pointed out. John Adams, second president of the United States, was the lawyer forthe defense of the British soldier* arrested after the Boston massacre. Raymond Vincent and Gordon Ans­combe, Toronto, are spending a holi­day at Kapuskasing.Miss Joyce Smith has completed her course in arts and crafts in To­ronto and is holidaying at her homehere.

Thamesford, Ontario, Thursday, August 17, 1950 N ew Post Office Opens Saturday The fourth time it has changed its location, the new ThamesfordPost Office will be officially opened 3 p.m., Saturday, probably byClarke Murray, M P., for Oxford County, and William Poole, actingdistrict post office inspector. Theopening will be a brief ceremony after which the new building willbe open to the public for two hours, when Postmaster E- R.Patterson will take visitors around. The Post Office has been in itspresent location, (on the oppositeaide of the No. 2 Highway and a little east of the new one, for twentyyears, and before that was in the building that is now McGregor'sLunch. Prior to that it was in the north-east corner of McGregor’sGrocery, moving from there whenrural routes were first added. Thepost office in Thamesford nowserves four rural routes as well as the village.The building has been built, and is owned, by Walter Hutchison,Thamesford.It is a pleasant, one-storey redbrick building with grey roof;looking, until you- get close, verylike a private house. Inside at thefront, the part which the public will see, is decorated throughout innatural, grained veneer with a light floor covering. The counter runsalong the complete width of the post office, and there are tworoomy grilles for the sale of istamps and exchange of general (delivery mail.The mail boxes, on the west side of the main office, ire neatlytiered and easy to get at, being away from the counter. ,Inside are two large rooms, the ■first for sorting and one at the 1rear of the building for the mail men on the routes. Right throughthe building is the same natural J finish woodwork and the modern,light floor coverings.Probably, though, the biggest noticeable change is when one seesthe small, dark cramped space that is the present post office andthen takes a look at the shining,new building that will be the postoffice by Monday morning. They compare rather like an old model Aand a new Cadillac. Woman, 72, Injured in Highway Accident A 72-year-old woman, resident ofThamesford. suffered severe iniuries when she was struck by a car on theNo. 2 highway west of Thamesford Monday morning.She is Mrs. Hennessy, and lived albne in the village.

W alk er FURNITURE Ingersoll Phone 304 Thamesiord Take 'Second Beating - - 19 to 6 This Tim*' , Thamesford took their second thra- f shing within a week when Morrows (hit 14 times for a lop-sided 19 to 61 victory at the school diamond. Monday ; night. The game was one that aboun- ■ ded in errors, both sides committing them. Thamesford notched ten and ’ Morrows eight. From the first, it was obvioua that Thamesford were heading for a dive,the Morrows’ boys taking a 9 to .1lead-off after three innings. Theynotched five more in the fifth, and—in fact—failed to score in only two frames, the fourth and the ninth,going down one, two,three in both in­ stances. Apart from a brief spurt in thefifth (3 runs from 3 hits) and sixth (1! rims from no hits), Thamesfordtook a very noticeable back seat. A standout for them was the lusty hit­ting of Ron Hossack, who clouted 3 singles and a double in five times atbat. Bob Hossack, at short stop, play­ed a nice game, making only one fluff, and taking several hard catches. Pot­ter, also, played a good game, on the No. 1 sack.Morrows really had nothing to write home about in the field, win­ning solely on their hitting. Best forthem were Rick Smith and Ross Crown, both hitting 3 for 6. Crownand Hutson got homers, going with Pete Cheele’s for Thamesford. Bill Tuffin opened for Thamesford, striking out three and walking six,giving up 10 hits. Cheele fanned four,walked three and gave four hits. ’Butch’ Smith started for Morrows,pitching a nice game. He fanned six, gave three bases, and allowed six hits,a homer and two successive doubles driving him from the mound in thefifth innings. Wilf Vale finished,striking out five, walking two and al­ lowing three hits. The teams: Thamesford: B. Hos- sack (ss), Greenaway (2b), Cheele(3b, p), G. Mills (rf), Tuffin (p, 3b), R.

There is no set of encyclo­ pedic volumes with all the answers.It is, however, a good thing to havea list of principles.

If the schoolhouses in your com­ munity are still closed in the evening,look for the reason. They are pbbbcnroperty, financed by the community, and fullest use should be made ofthem. Traditional objections, such aspossibility of damage, increased jani­ tor service, cost of supplies and main­tenance, and lack of efficient super­vision, are being overcome in scores of communities by co-operation bet­ween the officials and the citizens. From Royal Bank Bulletin. .4 6 cut Recreation Recreation need not be the com­plicated experience some people make it. It is relaxation to go down to thecountry station to watch the traincome in, or to drive out from a city to look at a few cows and chickens.Think of how fascinatedly men gather at a subway excavation or alot where riveters are bolting to-egther the skeleton of a new building. Adults return from these excursionsrelaxed, and children find in themthe raw material for exciting games in the sandbox or on the living roomfloor. Because all families have so dif­ferent work and interests during the day that leisure time offers their onlyhope of getting together, it is reason­able to suggest that every chance for recreation in the home should begrasped. Planning for fun together is an important part of family living.It is surprising what opportunities can be found around the house.If parents are the kind who liketo tinker and to create things withtheir hands, and if they are willingto let the small fry hang around andask questions while they work, that is one answer to the problem of whatto do. It is only one more step to al­low the children to make things for themselves. What they turn out willnot look like much, but they will learn to handle tools. More important, theywill learn the pleasure to be had ina home-workshop and will be drawn closer to parents who are also in the secret. Today’s apartments and housesare not as roomy as living quarters used to be. It is uD to the family tomake sure the best use is being madeof what is available. Family recrea­ tion is worth sacrificing some old-time prejudices for. Such a prejudice i. the tidy parlor. It doesn’t seem tohave done much good in many cases, to change the name to “living room ,because it is anything but that, itwould be fun to muss it up by living in it together of an evening, withcut-outs, card tables, sewing kit, and other diversions. If that is going too far in the inter­ests of the family recreation, make a survey. Can you let up s hobby cor­ner in the attic, the basement, the earage, or even in the clothes closet.What can you provide in the way of eouinment—a workbench (a packingX £ several small boxes nailed to­ gether will do), game tables, a stand for the boy’s microscope or for the girl’s hand loom? ,Are you doing the most that is possible with what you have? Doeseveryone get an inning? Is everyoneencouraged to become interested in what everyone else does. Can whatone does contribute to the hobby of another?Most communities provide, eithernaturally or by co-operative enter­ prise, resources to supplement thosefound or made arourd the home. No family can create all the apparatusand opportunities for a wholesome,balanced and satisfactory program of recreation. The ideal situation iswhere the community bands together to make recreation available to allcitizens at the lowest possible cost.

There are, however, a number ofskin conditions which occur .more commonly during the summer monthswhich are largely preventable. Sunburn — when the sun is takenin proper doses it has a most bene­ficial effect on the body. Over-expo­ sure to sunshine or skyshine causessunburn with all the resultant in­ convenience and discomfort. Sunlurn causes much absenteeism from work and has ruined many a vacation. All adults should know howmuch sun they can stand in any one dose. To prevent sunburn take yourfirst sun baths »n easy stages. Asyour skin becomes tanned you can increase the dosage of sunlight atany one time. The rate of increase will depend entirely on the amountof pigment in your skin. Some skinsdo not tan and continual care must bo taken to avoid burn, tf sunburnoccurs treat it is you would any other mild burn. Vaseline or cold cream willlessen the discomfort. If it is severe consult your physician.

The warm moist atmos­phere inside the darkened con fines ofthe shoe forms an excellent mediumto promote the growth of fungi. Ath­lete’s foot is a conunon condition which is characterized by blistering ofthe skin about the feet, particularly between the toes, followed by peelingand mashing of the akin. This com­ monly leads to cracking and painfululceration. Since the advent of open toed shoes for women, which provideadequate ventilation for the feet,“athlete’s foot” is now uncommon among females. Prevention of thisrather inconvenient skin condition consists of the various methods ofkeeping the skin of the feet dry. Reg­ ular change to dry shoes, regularlyand frequent change of socks, use of,drying foot powders, scrupulous foot cleanliness, change to openwork san­dals or shoes or bare feet when con­ venient all tend to increase the resist­ance of the skin of the feet through drying. In the past energetic and ir­ritating antiseptic treatments havecontributed a great deal to the in­ convenience and suffering of the pat­ient with fungus infection of the feet. It is now realized that mild, usuallydrying application* combined withgood foot hygiene provide the treat­ ment of choice.Poison Ivy — is most prevalent in this country during the months June to October. It is caused when a susep- tible person has direct or indirect contact with the poison ivy plant. Prevention consists of learning to recognize the poison ivy plant so thatcontact with the plant an be «*re-fully avoided. If the skin has come incontact with the plant, or if contactis suspected, wash the akin quicklywith soap and warm water. If inspite of these precaution* a rash deve­lops following contact with the plant see your doctor without delay.Impetigo, Pimples and Boils — are more common during the summermonths. This may be due to the factthat skin hygiene is commonly lea* adequate during the summer month*than during other period* of the year. These conditions are largely prevent­able by adequate skin hygiene. The importance of scrupulous cleanlinessin the prevention of skin infection* of thia type cannot be over-emphasized.Most skin infections come from with­out, Regular cleansing of the skin materially reduces the possibility ofdeveloping these unsightly skin infec­ tion.

Politics and religion, have always! been fertile fields for controversy and I persecution for those who refused toconform to the ideas of those in powerhas shadowed many a page in history. It was ’never intended that we shouldal! be alike or think alike. Our indivi­ dual minds are as different one fromthe other as our individual bodies. It would be a dull world if it were hotso. The likelihood of people becominguniform the world over is remote, for the birth of every child is the ar­rival of an entirely new individual, as different from his parents as theywere from theirs. A likeness in one feature, onetrait of character, one trend ofthought, is possible between indivi­ duals but the over-all picture is dis­tinctly different. If we could acknow­ ledge these differences and agree toabide by them, the world might some day manage to live in peace. Whileeach tries by force, physical or men­ tal, to overrule the other, to makehun accept what to the other seemsthe only good, we are bound to havestrife. And this is true of nationsas of people.Gandhi saw the solution in his ruleof non-vioksnee, the refusal to use force under any circumstance. And, ofcourse, it is the only solution, but how bring about the necessary atti­tude of mind in people of lesser in­telligence and integrity? We may seem to have come far from the Mid­dle Ages, when man could be execut­ ed for suggesting the world wasround, or refusing to accept a faith foreign to their own ideas. But havewe? Did not a nation, led by a pow­er-mad maniac, recently destroy tens of thousands, whose only fault layin the fact they were sons of their fathers? Do we not still persecute,by humiliation if not by personal vio­ lence, people whose skin8 are darker,even, when their souls are possiblymuch lighter than the persecutors? Gandhi tried to bring about a real­ization that Hindu and Moslem could live side by side, forgetting their dif­ferences of race and religion and concentrating on their similar needs.In life he seemingly failed, but in death he may prove more successful. At least, the two leaders of thesepeople are doing their best to con-sumate his life's work. If they do sosucceed may not others, equally farapart in their views, come to see thatthe needs of all men are much the same, life relieved as far as possiblefr.mi want and fear, the world most pernicious evils. And fear is possiblytf>e greatest curse, for it is a thing of the mind and spirit and as such isresponsible for all our basest physi-cal reactions. tec, Geraldine Hughes, Myrtle Os­ mond and Margaret Dennis.Sports winners were: Children 6 and under, Doreen Wilson, Mer-vin Osmond: girls 8 and under.Julia Nancekivell, Doreen Wilson; boys, 8 and under, Grant Hughes, Jimmie Hughes; girls 10 and under,Julia Nancekivell, Kathrine Wil­son; guessing jelly beans in jar, Mrs. Douglas Osmond; throwingball.

Studies Highway Plans The Department of Highways isstudying plans to connect Toronto ami Windsor with a new four-lanespeedway, which is expected to pass south of Ingersoll. If plans are car­ried out the new four lancr will con­ nect with the Queen Elizabeth High­way at Burlington, and run through to Windsor.In addition, a four-lane bypass isunder study which would connect the Toronto-Barrie Highway from NorthToronto to Guelph and thence south to the new Toronto-Windsor High- Plans for these extensions were an­nounced at the last session of thelegislature by Highways Minister Doucette, but so far nothing has beendone. The extensions are in the study­ survey stage, but a spokesman forthe department said the Queen Eliza­beth Way is overloaded and the newarteries will be needed soon.Therndw four-laner to Windsor, be­ ginning at Burlington, will likelyfollow a middle route between High­ ways No. 2 and 3. The spokesmansaid it would run north of Brantfordand midway between London and St. Thomas and south of Chatham.The middle route principle was fol­ lowed when the Toronto-Barrie four-laner was built. It runs north between No. 11 and No. 27. Osmond Reunion At Zenda Hall The 29th annual Osmond reun­ion was held Civic Holiday at Zen­ da Hall. About 40 sat down to adelicious chicken dinner.

Accidents It is important that you understand clearly why the managements of Canada's railways believe a rail­ way strike is absolutely unnecessary. Our reason for this conviction is that we have made the employees involved in the present dis­ pute a fair offer of wage increases and improve­ ments in working conditions which, if applied to all employees, will cost us $37,000,000 a year. We have further acknowledged a moral obliga­ tion to implement the 40*hour week at the appro­ priate .time, and we have explained why, in fairness to Canadian industry and all other employers of labour, we cannot put it into effect now. To do otherwise would be to perform a dis­ service to industry in general and to all employers and employees alike. The railways, after making two previous offers which the union leaders rejected, have now made a third and final offer which gives the employees the choice of either: an increase in wages averaging 8!4 cez.ts per hour, or a reduction in the basic work week from 48 to 44 hours, with an increase in wage rates of 9.1% so as to maintain or in some cases improve present "take home" pay. The labour leaders have made no concessions at all and have refused to budge from their original demands for a 5-day 40-hour week with mainte­ nance of present "take home" pay, and in addition increases of 7 cents and 10 cents an hour. The railways are thoroughly conscious of, and sympathetic to, the problems of their employees re­ sulting from higher costs of living. Drastic, unwarranted reductions in hours of work instead of decreasing these problems will inevitably increase them. Not only is a railway strike unnecessary now but furthermore, because of the tense inter* national situation, it would endanger the entire Dominion. As the presidents of the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Railways said in* a joint statement to the representatives of the unions last Thursday: "The present situation...imposes a nerve strain on all concerned at a time when we badly need to devote all our energies and thoughts to the grave threat of war and a national emergency ... It leaves the railway employee in a most uncertain and'unhappy frame of mind be­ cause we arc morally certain hejdoes not wish to walk out on his job at a time like this, no matter what issues are involved . . . this opinion seems diametrically opposed to the strike ballot which has been reported by the unions, but railway management retains too high an opinion of the loyalty, stead­ fastness and sense of responsibility of their employees to believe a strike would not mean a heart-breaking situation for them. That is not to say they will not carry out their undertaking to strike if union leaders decide to call upon them to do so but as already stated, it will cause great unhappiness and self-reproach.” PfFhe importance of, the railways in Canada’s 'economy cannot be exaggerated. Never was that importance more apparent than in World War II. And without the loyalty and in­ tense effort of all railway employees, Canada’s magnificent war effort would have been ho- possible. The same holds true today. As the presidents further stated: "... die general public is inconvenienced and business arrangements are made uncertain so long as the likelihood of a strike persists. Moreover, a railway strike would so cripple our economy that it would weaken for a long time our ability to take a strong line in inter­ national affairs and thus give great comfort to the enemy. Therefore, railway manage­ ment feels strongly that the issues must be faced resolutely so diat all interests, the worker, the public, and the Gowmment, as well as the unions and railway management, will know precisely what is facing them. The time has come to remove this uncertainty which hangs as a blight over our day-to-day life.” WITH THESE CONSIDERATIONS THAT COULD POSSIBLY BE EXPECTED OF THEM, AND IT GIVES A SETTLEMENT WHICH WILL LEAVE RAILWAY WORKERS IN AN EXTREMELY FAVOURABLE POSITION COMPARED TO OTHER INDUSTRIAL WORKERS. The final offer which excludes htsisl and water transport employeesis as fellows: (1) Recognition by railway u the 40-hour week at the (2) Recognition by the unions In principle, subject fa negotiation In detail, of minor amendments to existing contracts covering wurking so as to maintain "take home" pay.

Infact, if they had been able to call onsome strong hitters we fancy they’dhave done the trick.Thamesford, with a young team, are taking some pretty hefty lickingsbut we’d advise a careful eye on themnext year if they all hang together. That outfit has the makings of a verybalanced softball team. A little more experience may do a lot for them.Incidentally, talking of Thames- ford, we understand that it’s verylikely that some games may be playedout there next season. The people of that community are seriously consid­ering buying themselves a good dia­ mond and some floodlights. It wouldtake the pressure off Ingersoll if games were played out there occasion­ally, and certainly they’d net a big­ger gate.Last week we watched three brightyoung Ingersoll sparks carefully put ONE CENT EACH into the collectionand almost double up laughing at thejoke. It would be a far greater joke if they found that next year, throughlack of support, there were no games at all in Ingersoll. Swimming.

The Ingersoll girlscollected 14. The score? 10 to 9 inOVERTIME! Just as nearly as they possiblycould, the local lassies threw away a game that should, by rights have beena shut out. Of course, it wss walks, errors and bad fielding that let itget out of hand. In the sixth frame, for instance, the Woodstock ladiestallied five times without getting asafety once.

Around ] the middle of the game, though, itlooked •* if the Cheese were heading | fur a walk-over.Ralph Connor singled and scoredon a wild pitch in the first innings ] and Centreville held that 1 to 0 edge ;until the top of the fourth, playing tight ball and holding the Cheesehitless. (In fact only two men reach- i ed first base). Then they fell com­pletely apart. Two singles by Holder,a double from Noe, and singles fromHamilton and Hutson came at thesame time ua five very costly Centre­ ville bobbles and the Cheese crewroared into a convincing 6 to 1 lead.Scotty Connor doubled and came home on a fumble by third basemanHutson to make it 6 to 2 and Centre­ ville settled down to the hard grindof getting those runs back. Max Furt­ ney, pitching superb ball, did muchto getting them back on even terms,blanking the cheesetnen for three frames.

Whilst BillTuffin’s deliveries resulted in 17bases on balls, and fanned only three batters, Kemp—in his topform—sent 18 men back and walked seven, throwing a four-hitter. 5 For the first two innings, thegame looked to be a normal, closely-contested tilt, Sam Hamil­ ton walking in for a run that gavethe Nats a 1 to 0 lead at the end oftwo. Trouble hit in the third and fourth, us walks and errors aided Stones’ hitting for twelve runs. The score board showed a 16 to0 count before the Thamesfordcrew got off the mark, D. Stewart scoring on an error. But, as if to completely scorn that solitary mar­ker, the powerful Nationals went twice through their line-up in theseventh frame to chalk up ten runs and bring their total to 26.They could have scored in thelatter innings, but it seemed as though they began feeling a littleremorse for the harsh way they were dealing with Thamesford.Three circuit blasts were hit during the game, one going to R.Hossack, and the others to Lewis and McCutcheon. Mill, Kemp,Lewis and Bisbee hit doubles. Walks and two erron in tho sev­enth allowed Furtney to tie the scoreand Leo Connor stole in for Centre- , ville’s 7th tally. IThe Cheese still had fight, though,and in the first of the eighth, aided by two errors, they crept back to an8 to 7 lead, broken in the last half ofthat innings by three Centreville markers.Starting for Centreville, Bob (Con­ nor fanned one, walked four and gavethree hits. Furtney struck out none, walked one, for five hits. Keith Hol­der went the distance for the Inger­soll Cheese, fanning 11, walking nine for nine hits.The hitting crown went to Leo Con­ nor, who hit 1.000, with a homer, adouble and single in three trips to the plate.The teams: Centreville: R.
