In addition, he said, over 5000 tons of rock had been dumped inriver sections, which were under­mined by the flood waters last year. “We think we have the damagedsections under control,1” he said. Approximately 15 filled-in acreshave been or will be seeded, he said. That includes all betweenThames and Mutual streets, behind the swimming pool to Wonhamstreet, and to the west of the C.N.R. station.He disclosed that the C.N.R. plan­ ned to pave around the station andmove the parking area from the east to the west side, as in the olddays.Mr. Pittock revealed that Prem­ ier Leslie Frost and Works Min­ister Winters were going to tour the Ingersoll TVA project duringthe week of October 15, enroute to a sod-turning ceremony at the hugeFanshawe project.

In­stead of spreading the financial drive over several weeks, it is hoped that the100 or more canvassers, representingall service dubs, will blanket the town and reach the objective in that one day.The organization for such a “blitz”,of course, is almost as intricate as in a military’ campaign, and day andnight plans are being formulated. The plan is bringing wide publicity toIngersoll everywhere.Honorary chairman for the drive is E. A. Wilson. Chairman is FrankWoolley, of the Bank of Montreal. Vice-chairman is John C. McBride.In charge of the teams are Bert Carr,of Carr’s, and John Lockhart. Mr.. J. R. Henley is responsible for specialnames, with Mr. Henry, his vice, and“all special names” will be written inadvance and asked to have their dona­ tion ready for the canvasser Oct. 17.Secretary Al Clark and office secre­tary Bob Waterhouse are already at their “battle stations” and it is ex­pected “blitz" day will give the coun­ try something to talk, about. The$8000 is the amount required to carry on the many worthwhile Y activitiesin Ingersoll for the forthcoming year.It is fully expected that Ingersoll and district generosity will put the cam­paign over the top. _____ Neighbors Pitch In, Help Farmer Hurt Near Silo Out around Ralph Swartout’s atVerschoyle they really believe in the good neighbor policy.

'oom, Whiz Down King f’s Local Soap Box Derby The young fry are hard at work polishing, painting, oiling, bangingnails and generally putting things together these days. The reason forthis sudden outburst of energy? Easy. Thanksgiving Day, there’sgoing to be a soap-box derby on theKing SL hill. That afternoon, around two o'clock, the kids will be lining uptheir wooden speedsters, ready forthe mad dash to the finish line and the glory of being Ingersoll’s “SoapBox King” for 1950. There’s something about a soap­box derby that always seems to ap­ peal to young and old alike. To theyoung ones—the ones who want to nice in it—there is the expectationwrapped up in the putting togetherof their racers, the final painting,and the numerous trial runs before the big day. To the older ones—well, maybe it's just the fun of see­ ing kids have so much fun.Ingersoll’s promises to be no ex­ ception in .soap box derbies, either,because a lot of enthusiasm is being shown for the Y’s Men’s Club-sponsored race.

It was decided to investigate. “We should put the matter before the ratepayers, he said. “This townis away too large for a haphazard garbage collection. A Iqt of peopleare throwing it into the river, and other places where it shouldn’t go.”Mr. Pembleton said he would beglad to accompany Works Chairman Eidt on a tour of other communi­ties and see how they do iL The possibility of the works departmenttaking it over was raised. “Wo have so much spare time,”said Mr. EidL “Experience shows that the con­tract system i* the more economi­cal,” said Councillor Morrison. It was one night during the re­cent Kiwanis Carnival that the gentleman of many years in Inger­soll came up to me, with his wife, and said they had just returnedfrom vacation, during which they had gone fishing with mutual friendsin Oakville, the Lloyd Wrights. “And”, said the kindly gentleman,“we caught the biggest fish you ever saw. Lloyd really caught it—I justhelped him haul it in. But we had pictures taken of it, and I toldLloyd I was going to ask you to put it in your paper, then I’d send hima copy. If I bring you the picture will you put it in?”Yes, we said—and here is the picture!But that kindly gentleman didn’t bring it in—nor will he see it herein The Tribune. You see, that kindly gentleman who had just returnedfrom his holidays was Forrest A. Gould; Forrest Gould who waskilled a week ago at Gypsum Lime.

For a few brief moments, In the early stages, it looked as if the hopes of millions of tight fans might be fulfilled and the Brown Bomber step back into his rightful place. But it was not to be,- and before the final bell rang, Louis had absorbed a humiliating beating that showed brutally that, “they don’t come back.* There is something that pulls strongly on the heart strings of all fans when a great champion bows out. Louis had become almost a myth, with that deadly right hand of his. Many still wonTdered, (almost all hoped), that heTtill had it there. He did, in his heart A truly great athlete knows instinctively what to do, and when to do it, but there comes a time when his body simply cannot respond. For most of us, though, Joe Louis is still as he was, undefeated heavyweight champion of the world. He lost his last fight - - it stood to reason that he would - - but long after the Charles fight is forgotten, the world will remember the Brown Bomber in his great moments such as his second fight with Schmelling, and the much-discussedbattle with Tommy Farr. The era is ended and Joe Louis has tasted de­ feat for the first time in 13 years, and now we hope he will stay in retirement, content to \ sit back and let a glorious record speak for it­ self. To most of us he will always be undefeated.

But it was not to be.And so today the only real representative Can­ ada has ever had in the International speedboating field has hung up his propellers, so to speak, and Miss Canada IV, to all intents a dismal failure, sits up in a Gravenhurst boathouse awaiting a buyer; awaiting another sportsman to continue the quest the Wilsons have so long pursued alone to bring to Canada international speedboating re­ nown. As he retires after 25 years in speedboat­ ing, Harold need make no apologies for his efforts; while perhaps he did not win the Harmsworth, nor set a world's record, no other Canadian has achieved so much in the speedboat world. - The most disappointing thing, in our viewpoint, is the retirement of Miss Canada IV as a fai ure when those close to her know that when all is well she is capable of so much. There is no pret­ tier, or more thrilling sight than Miss Canada IV sifting along the water at 130 or over. Na boat rides smoother; no engine purrs so powerfully, and yet so nicely. She’s a world-beater, as those close to her know, but when she goes out to show the world, something else always gives. Perhaps one of the big explanations is the mat­ ter of time. You can’t work on such a high- strung ahimal as a 3000-horsepower motorboat on week-ends, a few weeks of every year, and expect it to be trouble-free. Harold and E. A. Wilson realize this and hence Harold's retirement from the game. His business and home responsibilities don’t permit him to give the time to the boat that is necessary. Miss Canada IV cannot be called a complete failure. She is still the fastest boat Canada has ever seen; indeed, is still officially the second fastest boat in the world. Unofficially, she has attained the world’ mark. The Wilsons devoted a lot of time, thought, energy and money, to develop a world-beater. They have brought untold publicity and fame to Ingersoll and to Canada. They will be missed in the speedboat world. Our big hope now is that some other sports- minded Canadian or Canadians will step up to keep us in the big-time. The Price of Freedom Is Still That of Our Eternal Vigilance The Korean incident is already history, record­ ed indelibly as yet another proof that dictatorial agression cannot hold out against the might of a freedom-loving world. After months of agonizing retreat and bitter defeat the United Nations forces swept in revenge through the little war- torn country to scatter the Communist armies. Yes, the fighting is over in Korea, and soon pea^e will once again reign there. The United Nations acted swiftly, proving beyond any doubt that they have profited from the strangulation of the weak sister League of Nations. Now it seems likely that they will also prove that, having fought for peace, they can lay the foundation for a lasting peace in which aggression will always be stamped out like a plague. Korea is an example of how a free world should act and its future will show how well they have learned the lessons of the past decades. But the work cannot rest there because else­ where in the world Communism is still actively engaged in plotting war. In Malaya, for instance, British forces have been waging a lone, unpubli­ cized battle ever since the last war ended. In Burma, profiting by tribal hatreds and racial in­ differences, Red influence is constantly stirring up internal strife. In India, \vith many millions liv­ ing in abject poverty, Communism is gaining ground. In China they have grasped a virtual stranglehold on the country- The Far East, for so long the forgotten part of the globe, is without a doubt the setting for a third world war. It is Here Communist tactics can flourish and increase. It is there, too, that the United Nations must be strong. They have proved that, when forced into it, they can fight harder than Communism. Now they must prove, by providing an adequate standing army, that they will always be ready for new aggression—ready to squash it as com­ pletely and swiftly as they did in Korea. The price of freedom still is - - always will be - - -eternal vigilance. Ontario Has 830,000 Cara On The Road The Danger la Obvious, Let’s Remedy It It is not very often that cold statistics hold much interest for the average person, but some issued by Minister of Highways George Doucett last week, are not only interesting, but carry a note of warning also. They disclosed the fact that the province of Ontario can claim more than half the total vehicle registrations in Canada. With a population of 4,500,000 Ontario had a total of 1,039,409 licenses issued at the end of August, and of these 830,012 were private motor cars. In other words a car to every five and ahalf persons living in the province. The total number of driving permits issued at the same period was nearly 1,300,000 and the minister said that he expected the total to top 1,500,000 by the end of the year. One third of our total population licensed to drive a motor vehicle! The danger this forewarns on Ontario’s al­ ready overcrowded highways is obvious. In the city of Toronto alone, there are almost as many cars as there are in the entire province of Quebec. ■Small wonder that'our accident rate is leaping skywards each succeeding day. Add to those thing more can be done than is now evident- It is no use tut-tutting at accidents and putting them figures the tourist traffic, particularly in the sum­ mer months, and the real wonder is that there are not more accidents than there are. The danger is obvious; is there any answer to it? Can it be forestalled or minimized? The obvious answer jeems to lie in stricter driving tests, periodical compulsory re-examination - - both driving and medical - - of licensed vehicle drivers, stricter police watch on our roads, and an intensive program of construction on our high­ ways. The latter is already well in hand, and Mr. -Doucett's department is doing everything in its power to speed it along. Many of our main thoroughfares are too narrow and inadequately surfaced to handle such a staggering volume of traffic. The situation canot be changed overnight, but ;t is being changed as quickly as is possible. The other, more immediate, needs then, lie in the other suggestions. And here, we fed, some- down to inexperienced and careless driving. They may be the cause of accidents, but they arc not the answer to them. Such prevention as is poss­ ible is in the hands of driving instructors, police highway patrols and, of course, the individual drivers. The province of Ontario needs - - should de­ mand, in fact - - stricter driving tests, coupled with medical check-ups. It should have the sense to realize that increased police activity Is for its benefit—not to hinder it. And its drivers them­ selves should remember that it is far better to arrive a few minutes late for an appointment than to not arrive at all.

"Boy”, he said, “if you feel badly, think of what happened to me. At the outbreak of the last war I went down to the recruiting office, full of high determination, only to be promptly rejected and put in class E, which meant then that after they took old men, elderly ladies and babies* if they still needed someone, then I'd get a chunce. I went home and told my dad, who was about 55, and he said well he’d join up then. I just laughed at him, but he bet me that he’d be in uniform within a week. And not only was he in uniform, but they shipped him overseas and he served six years there and instead of my dad sending me food parcels, I was sending them to him.

Thirty-six-year-old Joe Louis, former heavyweight champion of the world, and one of the greatest fighters ever to step into a ring, slipped sadly into oblivion. As good a fighter as he may be, Ezzard Charles could have fared only a few rounds with the Louis We strongly suspect the Picton Chamber of Commerce of one of the cutest tricks yet to at­tract tourists. While sitting on the shore watching Miss Canada IV tests, fish—big fish—were con­ tinually jumping out of the water and falling back in with a slap like that of a whale's tail. This was going on all ynorning, with disconcert­ ing regularity, and wo were getting all set to spread the good word of what must undoubtedly be the finest fishing grounds in the toorld, when we policed something that roused our suspicions just a mite. The fish were jumping out of the water and slapping back in IN EXACTLY THE SAME SPOTS every time! By a little cloak-and- dagger investigation, we got the word that it waa all a subterfuge—that several trained fish "in the know** were tied to the bottom and did ao many leaps to the hour to give the impression of literally schools of monsters, but then were unleashed after the goggle-eyed crowd had dis­ persed, It’s a great gag, if true, and we're waiting for a brief word or two from ths Chamber of Commerce. But if there are really that many fish down there, man and boy, grab your poles andbe off. LOOKING BACK In the Files of The Ingenoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario Miller.

Kerr accused Hamiltonof trying to knock him off the base, someone hit someone else, and inno time flat everyone was out there—spectators as well—swinging mer­ rily at anyone within range. Theonly surprising thing about the shindig was that nobody got thethumb from the game. Dickson's showed a determinedsuperiority during the first half of the game. In the first innings HalKerr doubled and Bob Kerr follOw- ed with a walk. Riddell followedwith a single to score Hal and MikeHutchison laid down a neat sacrificebunt to score Bob Kerr.Stone’s hit three successive singlesoff Dodd in the second but smartfielding in the outfield kept any runs from scoring and it was onlywhen McKee slapped a long sacri­ fice to Don Hutchison in left fieldthat the Nats managed to tally a run.Centre fielder Lewis cut Dickson’s Bob Kerr out of a homer in thethird with a fast, accurate returnto Bisbee at the plate that forced Kerr to hold up on third.The game continued at that nerve-racking 2 to 1 lead for Dick­son’s until the last of the fifth when Dodd eased up momentarily and theNats stepped in for four runs. Kemp and Thorntoh hit doubles.McCutcheon and Lewis singles, McKee got a walk, Don Hutchisonand Riddell committed errors and that was it.After that the positions were re­ versed and it was Stone's grimlyhanging on to their lead while Dick-son’h threw the book at them. Rid­ dell singled in the eight to scoreHal Kerr, but Dickson’s were un­ able to score two other runners whowere on base, even though only one was out, and that was how the scoreended, 5 to 3. Particular mention should be Imade of Dickson’s pitcher, Wilf.Dodd, who threw every game of the series without relief. In this lastgame Dodd threw an eight-hitter, and did everything in his power tosame the game, his team mates just not being able to break through theNats’ defences. He fanned four andwalked two. For Stone’s, Bill Kemp fanned four, walked four and gaveup five hits. Both teams had six men left on bases.Lleyd Hutchison also played a standout game in centre field forDickson’s, with Mike Hutchison starring at first base. Lewis, (cen­trefield). and Armstrong at first base shone for Stone’s, both play­ing outstanding games. Sammy Hamilton led the hit parade withtwo for three, with Thornton and Riddell following at 2 for 4 andHal Kerr with one for two.The teams: Dickson’s, H. Kerr (as), B. Kerr (2b).

Letter To The Editor Friday, Sept. 22, a group ofand their Sunday School tz.____ started out for a good time at awiener roast, but unfortunately some boys had another idea andfollowed the girls to Brown’s woods and promptly started toannoy them by throwing tomatoes, apples and stones.This isn’t the first time the girls have had their pleasure destroyedby boys throwing things and beinga nuisance in general. Surely theparents could do something about this or the police should be notified.It’s to be hoped that the parentstake a hand, before it becomes nec­essary to bring in the police tomanage the boys. The girls wouldthen be able to plan outdoor parties,etc., with every confidence of a good time and no interruptions fromthe boys. 1 believe parents would be well advised to look into thismatter and take steps if their sonswere the ones responsible for spoil­ing this outing which the Sunday School teacher was so kind toarrange. -- Kiristeacher A STUDENT. by in your picture or your painting, with ONE OF OUR FRAMES Take advantage of our careful, attractive, apeedypicture-framing service Chrome Moulding for your home’s every need.

Fauldn, Medical Exanmincr, London You CAN worry yourself sick. The old saying is only too true.Our emotions or feelings give agreat deal of zest, color and satis­ faction to living. Without these emo­tional tones, life would indeed be a dull, drab existence.Our feelings, however, are not al­ways comfortable ones, and it has been frequently stated that the ma.i-jority of patients seeking medical advice do so because of ill health re­sulting from emotional conflicts.Even the happiest, best adjustedand the most emotionally mature in­dividual will develop nervous symp­ toms if the stresses to which he isexposed are sufficiently severe. At the other end of the scale are those whobecome easily upset and .tend toworry even over imagined crisis, to be hurt by unintentional slight, to befull of fears for their bodily health, and to fail to withstand the tensionof everyday life. Between these twoextremes of maturity are wide indivi­ dual variations as to the point wheresymptoms develop as a result of emo­ tional tension. There is no border­line, sharp and distinct, between thenormal and the neurotic.In general it may be said that any­thing which threatens our security, hurts our ego, or in anyway makesus unhappy may give rise to emo­tional symptoms. Physical symptoms of emotional illness are common andoften prompt a patient to consult a physician. These symptoms may affectany^part of the body. Some of the most common ones which most ofus have suffered at one time or an­other are headaches, dizziness, inabi- Ility to concentrate, unusual fatigue, loss of appetite, indigestion, consti­pation, the “jitters”, irritability and sleeplessness.The distressing symptoms of anemotional upset cannot be lightly dis­missed with the statement, “justnerves”. These symptoms, if allowed to persist, are often quite disabling.Whut do we mean when we say a person is “nervous”? We usually1 mean that the person is unhappy, orI depressed, or tense, or anxious, or afraid, or insecure, or lonely, dr toodependent or immature. It is import- ■ ant to realize that discovery of thei cause of the emotional illness ir fre­ quently a large part of the treatment’ for the condition.The ability of a person to adjust to the situation in which he findshimself is to a great extent determin­ ed by his family life, his habit train­ing, his school associations, his reli­gious training, his social contacts— in fact his entire background. A longcontinued exposure to an unhappy home life, for example, is often amajor factor in delaying the develop­ ment of emotional maturity and per­sona! security. Heredity by itself isno longer regarded as an all impor­ tant factor in personality develop­ment. We all tend to mature emotionallywith increasing age and experience. i We can hasten this process by at-I tempting regularly to identify andsolve our own problems as they arise. When illness dqe to emotion de­velops it is wise to consult your fam­ ily physician.,-(From the Blue Bell) Bowes Boys Buy Weekly Newspaper In Peace District The Bowes boys are at it again.

Eventu­ ally the objects become warm andgive off secondary heat rays, all ofwhich warms the air in the room.Any radiator enclosure will blocksome heat ray’s, but if properly de­ signed, it will make up for the lossby a better distribution and greater FUIX COURSE MEALS 45 c up WHOLESOME FOODS QUICK SERVICE STA R CAFE 85 Thame.

Elgin, Ont. The Ingersoll Tribune, Thursday, October 5,1950 Page f Thames Is ”O m e ry ” M a n So M a d e It Narrator—Some riven are ornery by nature . , . but some rivers aremade that way ... by the hand of man!Let us consider the ease of the Thames River in south-western On­tario . . . Every year the Thames threatens the lives and property ofa million people in the most heavily populated area of Canada . • Everyyear its muddy waters, carry thous­ands of tons of precious top soil down river to deposit as useless siltin the bed of Lake St. Clair and yet, less than two hundred years agowhen a French explorer first saw this river - - -Explorer—A pretty stream, deep between its hhsh banks, placid andsmooth. What is it called Tekum­ mah?Tekummah—My brothers , wholived here before the Iroquois cameand destroyed their villages . . mybrothers of the neutral tribe, called it Askunesippi.Explorer—A liquid name, Askun- esippi, which is to say?Tekummah—Which is to say, “The Antlered River.”Explorer—So? Tekummah—Because of its manyforks which make it resemble the antlers of the deer.Explorer—So • • a pretty conceit.However, I think we shall call it . . La Tranche, because it is like aditch, deep between its high banks, a beautiful canal, fashioned bydame nature and filled with food fish for her children.Narrator—(Grimly), You’d not recognize your La Tranche todayM’sieu. Broad it is, not narrow . . The high banks have tumbled intogreen scummed waters. Each townon its one hundred and ninety-two mile length contributes its quota of filth. The food fish are few andoften diseased. In summer the onceplacid smooth flowing stream is often little more than a trickle. Atother times a raging torrent. What has happened to the Antlered river?Listen! The French let the river be.Furs were their business, not colonization. Then New France felland the English came. La Tranchewas renamed the Thames.. The set­tler came with his axe.Settler—Got to clear me a farm,good land, under these trees! Getrid of the trees get at the land!Narrator—In 1793 the Thamesriver valley supported a few hun­dred farmers in scattered clearings... by 1830 a hundred thousand. By 1850 five hundred thousand, andthe once pine-clad hills were bare! Those matted roots that onceheld Western Ontario's soil in bondage were Nature’s check, hold­ing back the spring rains . . .main­ taining an even year-round flow inthe tributaries and the main river channel. Each root, each tree, a tinydam. But now the trees were gone and the rains poured off the landunchecked. The watershed had be­come a tin roof and the Thames it­ self was an eavetrough!Narrator—The first big Thames river flood came in 1857. In 188319 people were drowned in London. In 1904, 1918 and 1929 the rivercontinue^ to roll up a steady list of casualties in lives and property.But all these were ^ist rehearsals for the big show. On April the 26th,1937, Radio Station CFPL in Lon­ don began broadcasting warningsevery few minutes - - -Announcer—We interrupt this program to bring you a special bul­ letin .All residents of West Lon­don are warned to evacuate theirhomes - - immediately! The river is within one inch of the top of the breakwater and rising steadily!Narrator—Because the warning came in the daylight hours, onlyfive lives were lost in the Thames river valley, but the property losswas enormous, greater than ever be­ fore. Millions of dollars worth ofdamage was done, livestock, topsoil in the country, home furnishings inthe city. This last and heaviest blow roused the million inhabitants of theThames river valley to the need for action.” The script went on to narratehow plans were drawn up for the various TV A projects including thatat Ingersoll. Dr. E. G. Pleva, professor ofgeography, University of WesternOntario:—“The floods are coming closer and closer 'together. Therewere twenty-six years between the first two, twenty-years between thenext two. There was a lapse of only eleven years between the third andfourth, and only eight years separ- the last two. Watson H. Porter—It sounds like part of a pattern.Pleva—It is. It's true all over the continent. Although flood rec­ords are incomplete and cover onlya relatively short period of time, they lead many experts to suspectthat floods are becoming more vio­ lent and more frequent as well asmore damaging. Porter—Very well. What’s theanswer? Pleva-Conservation measures! Re­plant the trees! Plow on the con­ tour! Control measures! Improvechannels! Build dams! Pleva—It isn't just the big floodswe have to plan against. The great­ est losses suffered by the popula­tion of this area are those causedby the yearly floods. These freshets if you want to call them that, washfertile soil from the uplands then hurl it as useless silt into the GreatLakes. Porter-*-So the country suffers aswell as the town? / Pleva—If the top soil goes thecity goes!Porter—You're an alarmist! Youmake a grim picture of it!Pleva—Not at all. The cities ofWoodstock, Ingersoll, Stratford,and towns of the Thames Valley aredependent on the Thames water­shed. If the soil goes, your cities will go.Pleva—Dams might protect the cities but it won’t undo the damagecaused by generations of wasteful farming practices. Any long-rangeplan to be effective must include the restoration of humus or organicmatter to the soil. That means large scale reforestation and the inaug­uration of proper land use.Narrator—Nothing serious you understand . . no big floods . . justthreats . . an erratic river snarling restlessly in its broken-down chan­nel, gouging at its crumbling banks, sluicing the precious top-soil offrich farmlands, speeding it uselessly to the lakes and the sea, thousandsof tons of it every year, a two- hundred acre farm roiling down themuddy Thames every 12 months. Old Man River taking his revenge on his despoilers.Pleva—But there’s more to thisthan the engineer’s dams and bull­ dozers important as they are. Thistrouble was caused in the first place by the unwise stripping of the for­est cover— Porter—Reforestation.Pleva—Right! And in the secondplace it was caused by reckless and improper land use.Porter—Conservation. Col W. W. Veitch, former LondonCity Engineer—Flood control comes first. DP agree that reforestationand conservation must form an im­ portant part of the long-range planfor the Valley but the dams come first.Finally the matter of aid came up at Queen’s Park.M.L.A.—It is felt, Mr. Speaker, that the works contemplated by theThames Valley Authority will be a benefit not only to the people ofthat region, but to the Province generally. Casting my mi(jd evenfurther into the future 1 can fore­see great and good consequences for the welfare of the nation in thepreventive meaures anticipated inthe Thames Valley. CanadianThames waters, one of the richestagricultural and industrial areas in the Dominion . . Left to its own de­vices and the destroying hand of man this inconsiderable stroam, un­checked, may one day turn those pleasant acres into a dust bowl, adesert . .” Veitch — The construction ofdams for flood control must be pre­ ceded by much preliminary engin­eering work - - study of topography, soil conditions, design, preparationof detailed plans and specifications. These dims will be functioning a hundred years from now. A few years, spent on study and research is worthwhile. We must run the risk of floods before the dams can be constructed, to ensure that they will be in the right place, of properdesign and well constructed. There will be control dams at Fanshawe,St Marys, Woodstock and Thames- ford; others will be constructedlater. In my opinion the small dams used by farmers, millers and saw­mill operators in 'by-gone days, if reconstructed would be a valuablemeans of water conservation andflood control.” Pleva—The river in balance willbe a great regional and national asset. The reforested slopes andshores in the reservoir areas will be parks and wilderness for the recre­ation and education of the citizen, both rural and urban, and for ourvisitors. Clean waters for fishing,swimming, and boating; trails and paths for hiking; fields for gamesand sports; cabins and lodges for vacationing families; trailer campsfor the motorist; campiflg develop­ ments for young people, and oldpeople, too; wilderness areas for those who seek natural recreation.All these things are real; all are possible. Can we afford not to havethem?Porter—The picture is brighter, much brighter now. One need notbe a dreamer to envision an enrich­ ed and more productive agriculturein the whole valley of the Thames. Farmers themselves are showing theway. Improved grasslands are evi­ dent on every hand; contour culti­vation and strip cropping can now be seen; small >forests are beingplanted, swamps restored and farm lands created. It all means moremoisture in the soil and a lowered flood crest in the river. Ultimately,there will again be water in the wells, springs will bubble again andthe small streams will flow in sum­ mer. It will take a generation ortwo but at long last we're facing inthe right direction. Letter To The Editor Burford, Sept. 18, 1950 Dear Sir:- When visiting my nephew, "War­ ren Sadler” of Mossley last week I saw two of your paper* and I liked them so much I am sending a moneyorder for 12.00 for a year’s subscrip­tion.

For a moment at Picton, Saturday, it looked aa though Harold Wilson, WaltHarvey and Miss Canada IV wereabout to give Slo-Mo-Shun's speedrecord a working-over. The weather was beautiful, the water fine, and thebig Griffon engine was acting like aworld-beater. Harold raced her over the milestretch, with a rooster tail stretchinghundreds of yards behind, then sig­nalled the timers he was about tomake his official attempt to beat 160325miles an hour. But when they hummedup to the marker, the speed just wouldn’t go beyond maybe 110-120miles an hour. So they raced back tothe pits to try another propellor. They were on route back for another attemptwhen Harold and Walt heard strangesounds coming from the vicinity oftheir pride and joy, the special gear box.Harold shut off the engine, asked fora tow back to port and had Miss Can­ ada hauled off. The engine was thenlifted out, and the worst fears of Haroldand Walt were justified; certain of the gears were stripped.That was the end of Canada’s sec­ond attempt on the world speedboat record, and the end of Harold's careeras a speedboat racer. The gears justweren’t able to take the terrific powerdeveloped by the engine any longer, itwas theorized, and it was only Wilson’slong experience that made him shutoff the engine before the gear box had possibly blown up at their feet, causinggreat damage and serious injury to the two men.“As far as I am concerned, it's theend." said Harold. “Someone else cantake it on from here.” Before the heart-breaking tests,Harold was presented with cheese andapples when members of the PrinceEdward Chamber of Commerce and Yacht Club and friends gathered atdinner in honor of Mr. Wilson and hiscrew.President of the Chamber of Com­merce, C. S. Slack, presided. Commo­dore Frank Harris said Harold had brought a good name to the county andthat the Yacht Club would alwayswelcome him back to Picton. MayorWilliam Henley expressed the generalsentiments of the citizens of Picton,wishing him best of luck in his finaleffort to shatter the world record. J. Donald Baxter, MLA. (PrinceEdward-Lennox) said that throughout the province it was recognized thatHarold Wilson's efforts had brought Picton tremendous publicity. He sug­gested that if such an honor as anhonorary citizenship for a town existed, Picton would feel Harold Wilson mostdeserving.Donald Thomas, chairman of the miletrial events, said Picton would always welcome Harold Wilson and his father,E. A. Wilson.F. L. Ward, K.C, first commodoreof Prince Edward Yacht Club, was in­ strumental in bringing Harold to Pic­ton in 1936 through Mr. ThomasGreavette.Colin Carter and James deC. Hep-bum expressed appreciation of theefforts of the Wilsons to bring laurels to Canada and Picton.Presentation of the gifts was madeby former commodore of PEYC, ReeveJ. C. (Buff) Cooper. He said it wasHarold Wilson who first showed peopleof this district a boat that would go 60miles an hour. Later he came andshowed 100 m.ph. and last year 150 miles per hour.Harold Wilson expressed his thanksfor the well-wishes.
