Battle for Mayoralty
He’ll Be Here Dec. 7
Following a very quiet nomination meeting, with barely
a word spoken in anger, Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray and Counc.Tom Morrison both qualified to run for mayor.
While nine were nominated, only the following five arein the council race: Harry W. “Buzz” Fick, C. A. Eidt, Stanley. Smith, Leo J. Ranger and Leo J. McCurdy.
Clifford A. Love returned to the public utilities commission, and A. J. McKenzie and George Clifton returned to the
school board, with Reg. Stewart being the new member, andall by acclamation.
Another surprise was failure of Lome Healy to qualify.Turn-out at the nomination meeting indicated a distressing lack of interest on the part of the people in the town’s
affairs. At 7.30 exactly nine people were present, includingofficials and press. Not more than 60 were there at any time.
Ingersoll is having a battle for the mayoralty and councilthis year. The elections are Dec. 4.
Nine 'Nominated
Those nominated were:For Mayor—Thomas J. Morrison,(proposed by George W. Lockhart,
seconded by George M. Clifton); Dr.J. G. Murray (Glen Topham, CharlesA. Eidt); Stanley J. Smith (NormanPembleton, Fred H. Wurker).For Council—(three to be elected):
Leo McCurdy (Wm. Smith, Thomas
Morrison);Lome V. Healy (T. J. Morrison, A.E. Izzard);C. A. Eidt (Glen Topham, L. Pic

Harry W. Fick (Lloyd Rutledge, T.R. Lee);T. R. Lee (Ti J. Morrison, Fred W.Wurker).For Public School Board—(one in
each of three wards to be elected):Ward One—A. J. McKenzie, present
member (John W. Smith, N. E. Pembleton).
Reginald Stewart (C. A. Ackert, W.R. Wark).
that greater interest wa« not taken
in nominations. He had been told,he said, that there was a day whenone had to be at the door by seveno’clock if one wanted to get into thehall.
Members of the 1950 council eachsaid a few words! Dr. Murray thanked
his sponsors, and said he felt councilhad done everything in the best interests of the community. Councillor
Tom Morrison said the town’s financial report, showing a surplus, indicated harmony in the council, “and
while we’ve had our heartaches,
we've had a good year." He said ifno one questioned the report, he wouldassume that all were satisfied with it.
C. A. Eidt, works chairman, saidhe had tried to get value for the
people’s money. This year, he said,ditches were uncovered that hadn’tbeen touched for 25 years. Leaves
were cleaned up, and streets gravelledthat were never gravelled before. He
said the town needed even more equipment, perhaps a flusher. “We’ve donethe best we could with the money we
have,” he said.“We could do more but it means
raising your taxes, but we don't wantto do that,” he said.

AN ANNOUNCEMENT
Despite increased costs all along, the line, The Tribune
has kept putting off any increase in the subscription rate forThe Tribune. Over the years, although equipment, labor and
paper costs have soared, in some instances more than 100 percent., The Tribune has remained at $2.00 per year or $2.50in the U.S. or elsewhere. However, the recent boost in the
price of newsprint has finally made it necessary for us toincrease the subscription rate of The Tribune, putting it in
line with most other weeklies in the country.Effective Jan. 1, 1951, the rate will be $2.50 per year in
Canada, and $3.00 to the U.S.It is suggested that those whose subscriptions are inarrears, or are coming up for renewal, will renew their sub
scriptions before that date, and thus save themselves somemoney. Notices have just gone out to all subscribers in arrears,
and no reply will be taken as an indication the paper is not

Wind and Snow
Save Heeney Home
Elmer J. Heeney, R.R. 5, Ingersoll, lost his garage and car to firelast week, but he figures he's pretty
lucky because he's still alive- andhis house is still intact.
Such might not have been thecase, however, he says, if it hadn’t
been for a stand of tall snow-covered trees, and the fact the wind
was blowing in the right direction.Mr. Heeney awakened at around
1 a.m., to see fire reflected in hiswindow and his garage ablaze. How
it started he does not know. A bigdrum of gasoline exploded, spewingflaming gasoline everywhere . But
again the heavy snow was the bulwark, soaking up the fuel.

“Bird’s Eye” Map
Interesting Find
Mr. George Gerrie, Ingersoll R. R.has come across a map, which if it
will not lead to buried gold, is surelya treasure map to anyone interested
in the history of Ingersoll. There isno date on the map, but it is prob
able that it was prepared in the 80’s.Not the affair of lines and geomet
rical designs which we know today,
this one is rather a bird’s-eye drawing of the town. The buildings may
be recognized; some—such as theCollegiate and Town Hall—look the
same today.
The change in industries is evi
dent for then there were severalmills—Parties, Stuart’s, King's;
Noxon’s stretched along the riverbank, and Grant Pork Packers was
clearly marked. Smaller businesseslisted included John Ack’ert's pump
factory and Frezeile's cigar manufactory. There was no sign of the
Ingersoll 'Machine, Borden’s, Morrow’s or Stone’s.
There were several bare spots onfront street, but it must have been
a busy town for there were threepapers—The Tribune, the Chronicle
and the Sun. All the present-day
churches, ;plus Knox Presbyterianand King 'Street Methodist, arc
marked. Bordering the map arepictures of several of the town s
most imposing homes, factories and
stores. Among these was the “Rich

best then—and now, for that is the
recently remodelled Elliott's Electric.

And No Wires
Thames Street North, opposite'
Morrow’s, has a new look these days—and nights.
Between Victoria and Bell streets,five, new-type, modernistic street
lights have been erected, and thereisn’t a wire in sight. The old lightson poles have been replaced, wirestaken down, and now all wiring isunderground. The telephone wiresare down, too.
The whole set-up makes for better
lighting, and a cleaner, neater mainstreet. The day when all wires willbe underground is said the dream of
both the public utilities commissionand the telephone company.

Not a Horse Hurt

It was like a bit of the old wild

safely, with barely a scratch to any.But a little later some of the horses
got loose and frolicked along the newchannel diversion. After a couple of
fine demonstrations of riding bareback, they were all corralled.
(By Alan Havard)
Going around, visiting the various ,industries in town, and learning some- ,
thing of their operation is a fascinatingtask. It is rather like going into some- .
one else’s home for the first time —
seeing new things, finding out howother people do their work, learning
of new machinery.For the first time since this series
started, your reporter felt right athome on a visit to a factory when
going around the Ingersoll Paper BoxCompany. There, big presses, exact
replicas of printing presses, score,crease, cut and shape the sheets ofcardboard which are fed through them
and eventually turn the sheets intocomplete boxes.
In fact, several of the presses at thePaper Box Company are printing
presses, for this Ingersoll industry L<often called upon to print, as well as
make, the boxes they turn out.The paper box industry, as a whole
is pretty well divided into various
sections. Some factories, for instance,make only boxes that are used bydrug stores. Little mites of boxes in
which a dozen or so pills will be
cached. Other plants have found theirmark with "specialty” boxes that will
eventually find their decorative wayonto a cosmetic display counter. These
specialty boxes may be any one of acouple of dozen shapes, round, tri
angular. or any >ou might fancy.Others, like the Ingersoll Paper Box
Company, concentrate on what areknown as “folding" and “set-up” boxes.
The two names are self-explanatory,one being the type that is folded intoshape at the store, and the other beingthe kind that conies ready shaped.
Fold Your Own
The folding boxes, which are produced on the ground floor of the King
Street West plant, find their way intodozens of different places, ranging ail
the way from clothing stores throughto bakeries and candy stores.
Their production is less involved andshipping problems are down to a mini
mum since the boxes are set out inflat bundles of a hundred.
Everyone has seen them in usehundreds of times and in hundreds of
different places. When you buy a enke.for example, the baker whips out a
flat sheet of board, cut and creasedin the appropriate spots, and with a
few deft twists and slaps fashions abox for-the cake. Or at the clother’s,
when you buy a suit or a dress. The
assistant whips out two cardboardsheets, slaps them into shape and comes
up with a neat box and lid for yourpurchase.
These are the “folding" boxes suchas arc -made in Ingersoll — in fact,l?J<ely w erc made in Ingersoll.All the stock arrives the same way
to be housed in the big storeroom,stretching the width of the plant, atthe rear. The sheets of carboard arcin huge crates that weigh anything
irom half a ton to a ton, and are fittedon lift trucks for easy moving.
Practically all of the cardboard usedis made from virgin wood, which is
of a far better quality and substancethan the cardboard which is made from
rags and other waste materials. Healthregulations, in fact, lay down that any
uox that is to house an edible productmust be made of virgin wood pulp.
If the box is to have printed sidesnnd top (which is the case with manyof the orders), the sheets go first to
Set-Up's Different
Upstairs is the “set-ap” box depart
ment, and here a vastly different setof operations are in progress; opera
tions that eventually result in completedboxes and not the flat sheets that areshipped downstairs.Here each sheet is cut to the size
of one box and passed through scoring
machines that automatically score thesheets in both directions.It is, perhaps, interesting to here notethe difference between the ways ofmaking folds In the boxes between thetwo departments. Downstairs the fold
is put in by a piece of flat metal that“creases" the fold without breaking
the surface of the cardboard. Here inthe "set-up" department, the folds are
scored with razor-sharp blades on themachine that cuts into the cardboard
at pre-determined depths. When thefold is made, it is done with a score
mark out, so that a definite, sharpright-angle fold is brought about.
From the scoring the cardboardsheets in this department go to a
simple little machine that cuts offthe comers, and then to what is un
doubtedly the most fascinating operation to watch of all of them.
These are the comer staying ma
chines — four of them — operated bygirls who deftly twirl the boxes around
so that each corner is neatly broughttogether, sealed down with tape, andneatly trimmed.
When the sheets reach these machines
they have small right-angle pieces —their size depending on the depth to
which the box has to be made — cutout from each comer.
The girls on the stayers fold up thefour edges so that the box is formed
but the comers not fastened. Themachine itself has gummed paper fed
into it, over a small water trough thatwets it. The paper emerges onto a
triangular shaped piece of metal andit is onto this piece that the girls
place the comers of the box. An arm
comes down, clamps the two edgestight together, at the same time pressing the gummed paper into place, and
trims it off. Four quick turns, and abox is finished. The girls carry on the
job at an : mazing speed and can turn
out hundreds of boxes in an hour.From July onwards this Ingersoll
company steadily tear out their hair,trying to fulfil orders that stream in
from manufacturers of boxed games.Thousand after thousand of brightly-
decorated boxes pour out of the Ingersoll Paper Box Company each week.
Some will package painting sets, somesewing sets, and the majority every-
different tvpe of game — such as youcan buy in any toy or book store —
that is imaginable.The gaily printed wrappers for the
boxes are supplied by the customers,(and are put on in one operation on a
“tight wrapping” machine that simplygums the wrappers, fits them over the
box or lid and smooths them downinto place.
One girl, on this machine, can turnout as many boxes an hour as wasformerly done bv two girls in a day,working bv hand.
And that is the story of the IngersollPaper Box Company.

Wanted - - a Hill!
Winter is now upon us, complete with snow,
and so is sleigh-riding time. But where, for the
kids of Ingersoll, to sleigh-ride?
The best place of course, is always the main
■treet But it’s sudden death to sleigh or tobog
gan on our streets what with all the traffic, any
youngster caught sleighing on the streets should
have a severe talking 10, or perhaps even worse,
in his own interests.
But why not take a couple of hilly streets, one
on the south side, and one on north, and rope
them off between specified hours each day, just
so the kids could safely enjoy the delights of
aleighing or tobogganing? You couldn't of course,
close off a portion of Thames north, because it's
highway, and busy at that.
But why not, for example, Ann St, between
Oxford and Thames streets? Close it off at each
end, between 4 and 5.30, for example, and let the
youngsters slide to their heart’s content, without
the fear of running into, over or under a truck
or auto? The town fathers would no doubt be
happy to co-operate in such a project which would
provide recreation for our youngsters, and at the
same time cut out a winrter-time practice that
has often proved fatal.
T. V. Tales
If advertisements for television, such as have
recently appeared in the United States, are
allowed to be run in this country then it will be
time to quit. Personally we do not think Canadian
manufacturers would stand for them and certainly
the Canadian public would not
The advertisements, full page spreads sponsor
ed by television manufacturers and dealers, arc
full of some of the worst tripe ever to hit news
papers in any country. In a pathetic opening, the
ads burble, "There are some things a son or
daughter won’t tell you. You can tell someone
about a bruised finger, but how can a little girl
describe the deep bruise inside her? No, your
daughter won't ever tell you the humiliation she
has felt in begging those precious hours of tele
vision from a neighbour.”
Of course, by now, the reader is presumed to
be sobbing bitter tears, having been brought to the
realization of how terribly unfair they have been
«o little Susie. There is only one course left open
to buy a T.V. set.
Even in America one can go a little too far in
attempts to sell something. Such trash should
never be allowed publication. Certainly it will
never be permitted in Canada, we hope.
The ads leave—or are supposed so to do—those
T.V.-less parents feeling akin to horrible ogres
who shoudl never have been allowed to exist The
shame of it! Not to provide little Susie with three
or four hundred- bucks' worth of television set!
Personally, if little Susie ever came to us with
that heartrending tale we'd be inclined to really
give her something to cry over. And if the only
way to keep from death’s door was to buy one of
those T.V. sets we would go happily to whichever
place we were slated for.
An educator (we have our doubts of what), is
quoted in those same ads as saying, "It is imposs
ible for children to hold their own with friends
and schoolmates unless television is available to
them.” We aren’t quite sure what we’d do if we
had that ’educator’ here with us, but we do know
it would be a pleasure to do it.
Caution - - Snow!
It really is amazing how fast time flies isn't it?
It seems only yesterday that everyone was com
plaining about the heat, thinking about taking a
cottage by the lake for the summer, and specu
lating on how the Dodgers would make out this
year. And now winter is here, with its attendant
snow covering the countryside with a sparkling
whiteness and bringing perennial problems.
■One of those problems is people who just won’t
dear away the snow in front of their houses.
There is nothing more irksome’ on a cold, winter's
morning, than to be forced to walk across patches
of snow that are packed so hard that even a
How-torch wouldn’t do much good. Shovelling
snow, as we all know, isn’t the pleasantest of
tasks, but out of sheer common courtesy, it has
to be done. People leave it, keep putting it off un
til tomorrow, and before they realize it, they
have'enough snow in front of their house to sup-
ply a man-sized snowball fight.
Two more problems that come every year with
the snow concern the young fry. Being kids, they
love to make slides, and we agree that it ig a lot
of fun. But not on sidewalks, where people are
having a tough enough time keeping their feet
without contending with slides. So. kids, if you
want to make slides, by all means go ahead and
have fun, but don’t do it on the sidewalks. It
causes broken hones to other people.
Toboggans and sleighs are another problem that
gives motorists more headaches than enough.
Every winter we read of some child on a sleigh
running underneath a passing ear. It isn’t the
driver's fault, because he very frequently doesn't
even know the child is there until he hits him, so

So remember, that too, go tobogganing all you
want, but play safe, don't do it on spots where
you might run underneath a ear or truck.
Peaceful Vibrations
With the world in its present touchy state,
everyone seems to have his or her own suggest
ion for solution of all problems, and elimination of
the threat of another war. A list of what we con
sider just about most unusual suggestions we’ve
heard, came in the mails the other day. Without
further comment, here is the note:
"To Our Legislators...............
“The Atomic War may be avoided even now,
without lowering Nations prestige, if you are
prepared to:
“1st—Outlaw the use of money; (peace can
only survive in a moneyless world)
“2nd—Outlaw meat eating; (ail meat or flesh
eaters are fighters and doomed to extinction by
Nature's Laws)
“3rd—Start and close all public functions with
non-Sectarian prayers; (it is utterly impossible to
govern a nation intelligently without Divine Aid)
"4th—To release Sacred music and prayer
■broadcasts regularly through all stations, every
day, (to release peaceful vibrations in the atmos
phere).
Can anything else do it? ... I do not know, if
you do know, for Goodness Sake do itl Your life
is Just as much in danger as mine . .

Burning Money
We people of Ingersoll are continually burning
money up, tossing it into the garbage.
We're speaking of waste paper, and how we’re
just “getting rid of it", when it could be converted
\ into money to be put back into the community
projects, healthful, educational and recreational.
Literally, hundreds of dollars, which could be used
for the betterment of our community, are being
thrown away.
Back during the war, the Ingersoll Citizens*
Salvage Committee was formed. It did an excel
lent job of organizing waste collection and sale, to
the benefit of the community and the country as
• a whole.
When the war ended, money raised in this
manner was distributed among the various com
munity organizations for their many activities and
worthy projects. Then, with the Recreation Com
mission doing its best to promote all sorts/of
worthwhile projects, but with a limited budget to
work on, the Salvage Committee suggested that
the Commission might like to have the privilege of
saleable waste collection, to add more money \o
their many undertakings.
The Recreation Commission accepted, with
thanks, and since then has carried out several col
lections. Unfortunately, however, the response
from the citizens has not been too encouraging,
and, in fact, the commission LOST money on its
last salvage collection drive. They shouldn't, be
cause certainly the waste is here, but we're either
burning it or putting it in the garbage.
But the commission is not deterred, and right
after the new year there will be a drive. So,
please, hang on to your waste paper, and on col
lection day put it out. The money will come back
to you, in some manner, whether through the art
club, or promotion of the drama group, or some
other endeavor in which you might be interested,
and, which is helped by the Commission.
Start saving.

N otice !
Thanks, Anyway
On nomination night Councillors Tom Morrison
and Fred Wurker did us the honor of proposing
our name for a seat on council. Much as we would
have liked to have stood for election, and thus
possibly participate to a greater extent in the
affairs of the community, we had to decline with
thanks, and for the following reason;
To play the part it should in community life,
the community newspaper must be independent,
though not neutral, and free to take an objective
view of all things pertaining to the municipality's
government, to give credit where credit is due,
and to criticize where it is felt criticism is requir
ed. If the publisher of the community newspaper
were a member of the governing body, then there
would always be the feeling that the views of
paper were not necessarily those in the best inter
ests of the community, but those of the publisher
who, as a member of council, was striving to put
something^ of his own, or perhaps council's across.
We want to be always in the position of being
able to say what we think, irrespective of per
sonalities, influences or friendships; we think that
in that position we are best able to serve our town
of Ingersoll. Because of all the above, we say,
once again, to our sponsors, thanks you very
much, and while we would like to try for coun
cil, we cannot But Ingersoll’s best interests will
always be ours.
Notes on the Editor's Pad
We blush to say this, but we almost got On
tario's chief man about power, Robert H, “Bob"
Saunders, and ourselves in an embarrassing pre
dicament through lack of power - - car power that
is. Through the kindness of Len Johnson, TVA
secretary, and Gord. Pittodk, TVA representative,
we were invited up to the Fanshawe dam project
to watch Premier Leslie Frost, Hon. R. H. Winters
and several other dlgnataries, turn the first of some
billions of sods for the big undertaking which
will mean so much to the area. We were given
the privilege of driving Mr. Saundfers out to the
site. Half way out, in the midst ot a long line of
traffic, we noted with horror that the gas gauge
showed just a fraction off zero. Oh, you’ve got
lots there, said Mr, Saunders, keep going. We
knew differently though—we knew that we -were
just a vapor away from running out. But on we
went with visions of being stranded right in the
middle of the muddy country road with Ontario’s
hydro commissioner straining to get to an offic
ial ceremony. But finally we arrived, the needle
in precisely the same spot Knowing we could never
get back, we scouted the local contractor ot bor
row a bit of gas, and he said, sure, drive up here
a few yards and we’ll give you some. We started
up, and you guessed it—quietly died. Little does
Mr. Saunders realize how close he came to being
stranded in the “wilds” of the Fanshawe area.

Toronto, November 22:—The
74th Annual Meeting of ImperialBank of Canada was held todayat the Head Office in Toronto. Mr.I. K. Johnston, President, in hi*address to the Meeting said inpart:The value of our gross national
Cxi action, which i* calculated tove been somewhat over 815 billionin 1949, is likely to exceed 817 billionin 1950. This i* estimated to represent an output of good* and service*75 percent above that of 1939. Ourtotal working force ha* increased byabout 75,000 in the year, and of the5,300.000 persons employable, less
than 2 percent were without jobs atthe date of the last survey in August.
We have had like the United State*a declining surplus on our worldtrading but this has been much more
than offset by a large and mountinginflow of capital. In part, this inflowrepresented long-term investment inCanadian industry and resource*
based on growing optimism as to the
future of this country.One development which could helpsignificantly both in the immediatesituation and in ternip. of long-runprogress would be an increase in therate of immigration. We need additional hands to perform the workwhich must be done and well-selected
immigrants could contribute greatlyto the desired increase in production.Our need for power ana the necessity of getting Labrador iron into theGreat Lakes Basin is making continually more urgent some definitesteps toward the long deferred St.Lawrence seaway. Indications that
the Canadian Government is preparing to press the project withrenewed vigour are to be welcomed.Beyond the economic case for it, itsplace in the strategy of defence makesit a stern necessity.
Prospects and Problems
Clearly, in any look at the future,the impact of the necessary defenceexpenditures upon which we and ourneighbour* are already embarkedlooms up as the major problem con
fronting us. The effect of these on
economic* which are already operating close to capacity involves verydefinite risks. The amounts are notso large as to be unmanageable but,I in the present circumstances, theycan be dangerous.
sober confidence to the future ahead.The problem* are great and difficultbut they are more manageable than-some have been in the past. For theimmediate future, they are likely tobe problem* of too much rather thantoo little business activity. For the
more distant future we have great
advantage*. There ha* been greatadvance in the past five year* in theequipment of our industry and in theknowledge of how to develop oarresources. There ha* been a great•tep forward in the increase in ourconfidence in our own ability to char*
our course.
Despite the many crises and thesuccessive problems, we have comethrough the post-war period muchmore fortunately than any wouldhave been willing to predict in I94S.Our own internal development has
proceeded at rates which are well up
to the limit* of safety. Despitewarning* and misgiving* the UnitedStates has persisted in an internationalpolicy which ha* opened it* market*and it* capital resources to world use.Europe and the United Kingdomhave made real progress back toward
prosperity and ability to stand oo
their own feet. There are hopeful
signs that the Atlantic communitymay develop into more than a meredefensive alliance. But over allhang* the grave shadow of wad andthe recurring threat of war. Topersist in the policy of strength which
has given us initiative and a chance
to influence events, will require
sacrifices and restraint. But wecannot afford to play less than ourfull part nor can we miss the greatprize of ultimate stability in theworld by making our own contribution less than of the maximumeffectiveness. Above all to realize the
full promise of the future we must
have courage; continued courage ingovernment to lead, even though thepath may not be a popular one;courage on the part of management,labour, farmers and business men toco-operate for greater productivity;
courage even on the part of consum
er* to restrain their purchases in the
confidence that it need only be apostponement. With courage andmutual confidence, we cannot bedefeated from within while presentinga strong front to the aggressors.
15 YEARS AGO
Thursday, Dec. 5, 1935
The voters went to the polls on
Monday and elected John L. Paterson as mayor for 1936, by a slimmajority over J. Verne Buchanan
and Charles W. Riley, his two opponents. Nine candidates ran for
councillors and out of this number,Alex. H. Edmonds led the polls with
a total of 1567 votes. Thomas J.Morrison was second, Dr. .J. G.
Murray third, Frank E. Kestle,fourth, John A. Wdir, fifth and Fred
H. Adams, sixth. For Public Utilities Commission, John A. Bowman
won over Ewart G. Wilson, James
E. Fergusson was third and John E.Gayfer, fourth.
A capacity crowd filled the parish
hall of St. James* Anglican ChurchTuesday night for the amateur con
test under auspices of the St.
James’ Young Men’s Bible Class.The program consisted of thirty-
one members from four years of ageup. Mr. Herbert Handley, assistant
teacher, was master of ceremonies.
In the children's group, second prizewent to little Sally Fleet, four yearsold, who has had but four dancinglessons. In the adult group, George
Savage was first; the Three Scamps,Bruce Petrie, Fred Parrow and
Frank Messenger, 2nd, and GertrudeSpittai, third.
A wedding was solemnized in St.
Clements Catholic Church, Preston,when Rev. Father Hartleib united
in marriage Mabel Marie Blotter,,daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Bleiler, Preston, and Patrick Hanlon, son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry
Hanlon. IngersolL The bride was
attended by her sister. Miss FrancesBleiler, while Thomas Hanlon, cou
sin of the bridegroom, was bestman.
The oil development in Albertacontinues unabated with over 600
additional wells this year to date,
that number being added to almostdaily. Oil is now flowing through thepipe-line to Ridina, Exploration isproceeding actively, and this appliesalso to the neighboring Province ofSaskatchewan. It is reasonable toexpect new fields will be found and
developed and, even.with the experi
ence to date as a guide, it is difficultto grasp the full and final possibilities of our oil resources. The presentbenefit to our economy is of importance, and this will undoubtedlygrow tremendously.
Important step* in the vast iron
ore development of Labrador and
.North Eastern Quebec brings doser‘the time when Canada will be onebf the most important producer* inthe world of this basic and essentialmaterial, and this will be of tremendous importance to our economy. Itsdevelopment is a notabla example of
intelligent vision backed by courageous use of financial resources.
Further, and in some respects quiteremarkable, progress ha* been madein the field of business generally. Thinincludes lumbering, pulp and paper
and all types of manufacturing and
distribution. Industrial production
is now about double that for any ofthe years immediately prior to thewar. However, we should not permitthis continued record of advancementto make us complacent. Great stride*have been made, but inflation is
gaining. Not only doe* this affectour internal trade but, more particularly, there is added danger of pricingour product* out of world market*.It must be borne in mind that whileKitting the Canadian dollar tots own level it cannot help but be
beneficial in the long run—the immediate effect will be to increase thecost of our exports in term* ofAmerican dollar*.
Toronto, November 22:—Mr. L.
S. Mackersy, General Manager,Imperial Bank of Canada, speaking to the 76th Annual Meeting ofShareholders held in Torontotoday, said in part:The Seventy-Sixth Annual State
ment of the Bank, now before you,shows total Assets of 8526,748,659.the highest figure yet attained,the increase during the year being>7,708,000.The profits before provision fordepreciation and taxes were >2,650,-

Deposits at >477,747,176, showingan increase of >1,477,000 are againat an all-time high.Our investments, not exceedingmarket value, total >220,766,412.Loan* total >205,442,793, an In
crease of 812,285,000. These loans
are widely diversified and carefullysupervised and the increase showsthat we are continuing to do our fullpart in meeting the requirements ofboth our Urge and small customers.
We especially welcome the large
number of small customers and con
sider their business very important.
GeneralBusiness Conditions
Reports on business conditions, re
ceived from branches and gatheredfrom other sources, continue toreflect a high level of economic activity, and it seems likely that thisyear of 1950 will see peak levels
established both in production and
consumption.
Fann income will not equal that oflast year. The original prospect of amuch better than average wheatcrop, unfortunately, was not realizedbeing substantially affected both as to
yield and quality by an early andsevere frost. While other field crop*will produce * higher income, this isoffset by reduction, to some extent,in livestock marketing and, in addition, the farmer last year received acomparatively larger equalization
payment covering an adjustment of
the prior four years. The year can,perhaps, be described as one in whichthe farmer has not been able, to anyextent, to add to his gains in progressmade in recent yean.

shade lucky to be ahead 2 to 1 at theend of the first period on goals byBeemer and Hamilton.Woodstock tied the score at the halfway mark, and then, for the only timein the game. Ingersoll really showed
superiority, banging in four countersin less than five minutes. Collins,
McDonald, Hamilton and Johnsonwere the marksmen. But the Wood-
stock team came back from downunder before the period closed, toscore at 18:29 and 19:64, and were
trailing 6 to 4 at the close.Beemer put Ingersoll ahead further
U: the third stanza, and then, insteadof trying to protect their lead the
local crew continued their “individualenterprise” game. ConsequentlyWoodstock caught them napping three
times in four minutes and the gamewent into overtime, tied seven each.
Woodstock took their first lead ofthe game in overtime, but Land onceagain tied the count.

will stay with it as long sg food isconstantly available. By the same
token, if birds accept your profferedhospitality it is your obligation tosee to it, that food is available forthem at all times.The body temperature of birds ismuch higher than that of humans,(about 106 degrees), and if they
are deprived of food for only a veryshort time in extremely cold weath
er, they will die from lack of fuelto keep their tiny bogies warm. Soif you start to feed, Snd the birds
come to you, never neglect theirconfidence.
There arc many bird feedingstations being operated in Ingersoll
at the present time, and if you areinterested most of the owners would
be willing to let you look over theirequipment to get ideas along thisline.

By Harry Slvyar f
There are, broadly speaking, two itypes of birds that may be enticed i
to a feeding station for winter Ifeeding,/ nataely, birds that eat i
animal matter, and birds that are <mostly vegetarians. Some are quite <
willing to accept either, or both.Among the first class, is the tdowny woodpecker which goes for i
suet in a big way, and one or more iof these are usually quite easy to 1
get if a proper suet log is provided <for their use. This little black-and- 1
white fellow, with a red spot on theback of its head, male, or without,
(female); is also at times accom
panied by a larger version with .identical markings, the hairy woodpecker, but this fellow is not so
plentiful, and is much more shy and
usually prefers to feed a bit fartherfrom human habitation.The two most common species I
that will quite readily accept both <
types of food are the black-capped ichickadee, and white-breasted nut
hatch. They will take either suet or isunflower seeds with a probable
preference for the latter, while the 1
cardinals prefer a diet of seeds
only—the usual kinds used beingsunflower of whole corn, while corn Ican be put on the cob.
While there are other birds that
may be enticed to a feeding stationoutside your window, these are us-ually the more prominent, (with
the exception of the house sparrowand starling which you most prob
ably will not want, and will almostcertainly get).
Suet can be fed in any mannerwhere it cun be placed, on the side
of a building, or tree, etc., so thatit can be taken one beakful at a jtime, or a suet log constructed for 1
the purpose. Otherwise the first bird
will probably make off with the entire supply or at least all that it
can carry.Sunflower seeds can be put out
“in the head”, if they can be obtained that way, being tied head down,
by the stem. This arrangement willbe acceptable to chick-a-dees and
nuthatches, but the cardinals musthave them on a feeding tray or in
some type of dispenser which workson the same principle as dispensing
feeders used for feeding chickens.For best results in operating a
bird feeding station, feeding or theplacing out of food, should be start
ed much earlier in the season thanthe present time, for mose birds like
, to locate a food supply before theneed is pressing, and if some prom-
;ising snot is already found, they
Ingersoll Tie
Woodstock 8-8
In Overtime
Never quite able to hold down a
lively bunch of Woodstock pucksters,the Ingersoll Juniors could only make
a high-scoring eight-all tie when theymet that team at Woodstock Tuesdayevening.
Ahead until there were less thaneight minutes left, Ingersoll conceded
two goals in 10 seconds to let Wood-stock in.I The game wasn’t one of which thelocal team could be proud, for although the scoring was so high, they
didn’t once get a concerted team effortgoing. Every goal waH the result of
individual enterprise, and most of theWoodstock goals were caused throughfaulty defensive play.
All through the gafe, the Wood-stock Kinsmen seemed the more dan
gerous outfit, and Ingersoll was a

Bright Future
For Canada Seen
The 76th annual meeting of —Imperial Bank of Canada was held
at the Head Office in Toronto recently.
Mr. I. K. Johnston, president,stressed prospects for the prosperity
of Cansda are great, but that cour
age to face the future is required.Mr. Johnston said the last 12 monthshave witnessed some marked shifts
and significant new developments,and have also been remarkable for
the continuation of the high levelof employment and business activ
ity which have characterized thewhole period since 1945.
Speaking of the future, Mr. Johnston, at one time in Ingersoll,
affirmed that Canadians may lookforward with sober confidence to
the future, although one of theproblems is likely to be too muchbusiness activity rather than toolittle. Has explained that we havecome through the post-war period
much more fortunately than any
would have been willing to predictin 1945. and he concluded his ad
dress with a reminder that consumers must have restraint in purchas
ing, and courage must be the key-n otc for 1951.
I* S. Mackersy, General Manager,said total assets of $626,748,659
and deposits at $477,747,176 areagain at an all time high. The pro
fits, before provision of depreciation and taxes, were $2,650,308,
representing an increase of $540,-233. Loans show an ’--------
$12,285,000, bringingloans to $205,442,793.
Mr. Mackersy stated a high levelof business activity can be expected,
and it is likely 1950 will see peaklevels established both in product
ion and consumption. However, Mr.Mackersy stated, farm income will
not equal that of last year, as theoriginal prospect of a much better
than average wheat crop, unfortunately was not realized. He stressed
the need for planned immigration.
Rev. Dr. H. H. Turner hadarranged supply for Norwich onSunday, November 26th, but the
Session of Norwich called on Saturday evening that all the services
were being withdrawn on accountof the bad road conditions.
the
It was rough weather outsidewhen the Ingersoll Juniors met thePari* Cockrams in Paris Fridaynight, and far from calm inside asParis battled to a 9 to 7 win overthe local kids in overtime.A total of 21 penalties were handed out during the game, including
misconducts to Johnson and Barr ofIngersoll, and majors to Hamilton,
(Ingersoll), and K. Parsons, (Paris). The third period was the rough
est, with 27 minutes of cooler timebeing thrown at the two teams, and
at hardly any time m the periodwere both squads at full strength.
Much of the disturbance wascaused by some very unsportsmanlike riding of Ingersoll’s colored
star, Larry Blair, by both Paris fansand players. The Ingersoll boy is
one of the nicest you can find anywhere, and fortunately some of the
sting was taken off when the Parismanager apologized for the scenes
after the game.The game was a toughle to lose
for the local team, who trailed 2 to1 at the end of the first period, and
4 to 3 at the end of the second.Paris went up 5 to 3 at 1.24 in the
third, Hamilton closed the gap at
4.49 and McDonald tied the scoreat 5 each at 6.47,
Ingersoll took their first lead inthe game at 9.29, when Hamilton
scored from McDonald's pass, butParis evened the count at 12.10.
Fifteen seconds later, Johnson putIngersoll ahead again, McDonald
again getting the assist, but theCockrams again tied the score 35
seconds after the Ingersoll marker.
Handling a total of 40 shots on
goal, Joe Ditchbrurn once againplayed a neat game for Ingersoll.
Roy Land, playing first at centreand later on defense was the Inger
soll star, setting up many neatplays, and time and again breaking
up Paris threats. McDonald alsoplayed a standout game, and Larry
Blair—despite the riding he got—turned in a good game.
Certainly no particular blamecould be laid to the local team for
the defeat, it was just one of thoselosses a team has to swallow at
times. One thing is sure, that they’llbe gunning for the Cockrams when
they return to Ingersoll.he lineupsst.vvtu-nqz

Page 8 The Ingersoll Tribune, Thursday, November 30, 1950Western Mustangs Hope ForAnother Good Hockey YearWith Eric Pettinger departing
from the coaching scene, BillL’Heureux take* over the Univer
sity of Western Ontario Mustanghockey team with a nttcleu* of
last year's good team returning.The team’s second-place finish inthe league la*t season, along with
their strong showing against thepowerful University of Michigansix has gained them a repeat spot on
the latter’* schedule this year.
The pair <?f games at Ann Arborwith the Wolverines, highlights theearly season for Western who are
most anxious to show up wellagainst the American team, particu-
lary since the Purple and White takeover McGill’s spot on Michigan’s
schedule.Back for another year on defencewill be Wes Williams, Ted Pritch
ard and Jerry Fewster, the latterjust having completed his tour ofduty with the champion footballMustangs. Both Williams and
Pritchard are medical students and■will do 'their dissecting from the
blue line in. A recent addition to theblue line patrol is Craig MacDonald,
a transfer from Waterloo Collegeand their outstanding player of the
1049 season. Reg. Ort. Ross Grantand Ron Chisolm, now that football
is over, are expected to bolster thedefence corps considerably when
they round into hockey-playingshape.
The biggest gap L’Heureux has tofill is in the nets where both GeorgeHainsworth and Pete Riggin have
graduated. Riggin and Hainsworth
will be missed, particularly Hainsworth—the backbone of last year’s
defence. However, young Bob Fraser. a London boy, is expected to
go a long way towards filling Hains-forth’s shoes. L’Heurcux is im
pressed with Fraser's agility andpoise which will go far towards
making him a solid performer. BillDevlin, another London boy, has
been showing well in the nets andif he doesn't heat Fraser out, will
certainly push him to his best performance.
At centre, clever Jack Avery, nToronto boy. will be returning to
lead a line consisting of his youngerbrother. Don at right wing. This
brother act formed a high-scoringunit last year and although the
third member of the line has left.L’Heureux has lots of material fromwhich to choose a replacement. The
Art Gaber, Jim Black and Dave Gos-sage—top point getters in 1949-
50-line, will return intact. Toronto'sBlack and Gossage were noted for
their ability to convert the passesof the clever stick-handling wizard
from North Bay—Gaber—who isagain expected to sparkhcad the at
tackNewcomers Cam Church, Ray
Newton and Wilf Beaudry, shouldform a strong line to give the team
the depth it needs. Church, an experienced performer who played
pro hockey in the Pacific CoastLeague last season, is a good bet to
show fans aom* outatanding hockjy.
Newton, a Port Arthur Junior starand Beaudry, up from-Pembroke
Lumber Kings, are a couple of fastskating northern boys who should
do well this season.Nick Stevens of Toronto, JimPeters of Saskatoon and Ed Martin-elle of Toronto, complete the list ofplayers on this year’s Mustang
roster. All are strong skaters andwill undoubtedly give Western a
speedy hockey team.

Football GoodFor School LifeSays U.W.O. CoachThe players of the successfulI.C.L football team this season were
guests of the Kiwanis Club at theirmeeting Thursday evening, whenDr. Earl Zeigler, Head of the De
partment of Physical Education atWestern University, was guestspeaker.
Dr. Zeigler, line coach of theMustangs, followed the *Football
Week’ trend which ran through themeeting, saying, "Athletics andphysical education belong firmly in
our educational system, but theymust be properly balanced and not
allowed to get to the stage theyhave reached in the States wherefootball is everything.
The fundamentals that you learnon a football field not only produce
success on the field, but I think alsoproduce success in life. You learnhow to take it in football, and comeback. We learn how to win. andwhat is usually important—we
leam how to lose.
"If a man can prove himself on
the field he has a good chance ofproving himself in life.”
Dr. Zeigler was accompanied by
Reg. Ort, star Mustangs centre, andboth were introduced by Currie
Wilson. After his talk, Dr. Zeiglershowed the official films of the game
in which the Mustangs trounced
McGill to go on and win the championship.
He was thanked by Tom Douglas,and Bill Montgomery expressed
thanks to the Kiwanis Club for entertaining the school team.
The meeting was presided overby E. J. Chisholm, and Currie Wil
son introduced the I.C.l, team tothe club. A sing song was led by
Roy Start, with Walt Thurtell at thepiano, and Walt Leaper and Father

(Continued from last week)
It is not until one reaches Bates
ville, Ark., that the hills recede anda more level country is in evi
dence. Families were picking cottonand the rice had recently been har
vested.We reached Little Rock early in
the evening and took in a show before the train headed off to Mexico.On the train was a wounded Marine
enroute to near San Antonio, Texas.From the time we had left Kansas
City he had only one thought inmind and that was to see Texas and
mother . . . Texas, anyway. He hadbeen absent for two years and heyearned for the sight of mesquite,
sage bush and cactus. "Texas is thegreatest state in the Union!" he exclaimed, “Texas is the only state . .Good old Texas!!*' We were on afast train, but not fast enough forthe Marine. Every little while he
would say, “This train hyah shorepokes along," or “This train hyahshore dawdles at stations." We stop
ped to service with oil the dieselengine and it took less than 15 min
utes. Probably, to him, it seemed15 hours. ‘i’Muh Gawd,” he whined,

Set a good sleep. After a time heoxed off into a fitful snooxe and at6.30 a.m., the trainman came
through and shouted, '“Palestine,next stop!!" The Texan opened hiseyes and asked, "Palestine, Texas?"and when the trainman told him"yes", he turned to hia fellow trav
ellers and said , with all smiles,"“Gaxe aht of this windder, pard-
ners, an’ see good old Texas an’yuh’re right in the heart of Holy
Land at thet!” •
Typically Spanish
We stopped a day in San Antonio
and left for the Mexican border the
following day. Laredo is on the bor
der and it is separated from Neuva
Laredo, Mexico, by the Rio Granderiver. It is tjtoically Spanish. Streetsare 26 ft. witft and the blocks do not
exceed 200 y$rds in length. All the
sales clerks are Mexican and Spanish foods predominate on all menus.’
Laredo seemed to us a quiet,
sleepy town. Yet, its history is steeped in barroom brawls and gunplay.
It was a noted cow town back in the'70s and 80’s of the last century.
At that point, commenced the famous Chisholm trail to Abilene, Kan
sas ... a thousand miles northward,and then the railhead to' the beef
packers of Kansas City. Unfortunately, our stay there was curtailedbecause of the terrific heat. It was95 degrees and the second hottest
place in the U.S.A, for that day.The town goes to bed at 9.30 p.m.!
We came out of the show about
9.15 and all the streets were deserted and the waiter in a restaurant informed us that it was the usual thing because of the heat. School
children were going to school at7.30 in the morning and at one p.m.
the Mexican people indulge in asiesta for an hour or so. Nobody
seems in a hurry and it only took25 minutes to be served with * anorder of toast and coffee. FourAmerican custom and immigrationofficers were tossing coins to see
who would pay for their lunch andthe waiter, who had taken our order,
joined the coin flipping act and wehad to remind him that our trainleft in 15 minutes. Reluctantly, he
served the order. We took a taxi to
the station and then discovered thatwe had plenty of time. The trainstood in front of the depot and the
Conductor said it always left 20 or
30 minutes late because they couldalways make up the lost time. In
fact, the Xrain arrived in San Antonio five minutes ahead of schedule. The train skirts the highway
for nearly 50 miles. About 45 feetseparates the road from the tracks.
One could look out of the windowand see what was going on in an
automobile when it was travelling at50 miles per hour. I saw one young
lady tap her husband on the shoulder and he reached in the glove
compartment and handed back anursing bottle. He then reached in
and fished out a mickey, took aswig, replaced the bottle and slam
med the compartment shut andwiped his lips with the back of hishand! I remarked to another pas
senger that it was just as well that
no honeymoon couple were on thehighway as it would distract my
attention from admiring the beautiful scenery of mesquite and cactus.From San Antonio we went to

New Orleans. I have always pinedfor Naw 'leans since I saw theMardi Gras there, three years sgo.The heat there was also too highand I was more than disappointedby the absence of gaiety and noise.This trip, the famous Notes Damefootball team were playing Purdue
on the campus. 77,000 people witnessed the game and Purdue lost in
the dying moments of the game.Probably, it was just as well be
cause the boys would have torn thetown apart in their victory.Hotel accommodation was at a
premium. Enterprising hotel keepersdoubled their usual tariff and many
had to sleep out- in the parks. OnePurdue fan from Alexander, La.,
told me on the train that he hadpaid |7.00 to sleep on a porch swingthat wasann the verandah of a tour
ist home, lie said that he didn't mind
the seven bucks, but at 2 a.m., heWas awakened by a person whoclaimed that the landlady had prom
ised him the swing the previousafternoon. At 3 a.m„ a large grey
hound had licked his face and at5 a-m., a milkman had given him a
prod to know if he had change fora half dollar as he did not want to
jvake up the lady that ran thehouse!' About 6.30 a colored man
was swoshing down the verandahwith a garden hose so he decided ha
had enough sleep and called it anight.
The oft heard expression “solddown the river”, appertains to New
Orleans. Before the Civil War,slaves from all the up-states and
newly arrived human caigo from thejungles, were auctioned off at the
slave mart in New Orleans. Today,the Louisiana State museum exhibits
one of the original “slave blocks"that were roughly constructed out
of hewed planks and an iron leg-bandto prevent the escape of the hapless
victim. Four well-worn steps werecertainly a grim reminder of this
despicable trade in human misery.Ingersoll is a long way from New
Orleans but not many people realizethat there are many colored citizens
living today in that southern metropolis who can trace their ancestors
back to Ingersoll, North and WestOxford townships. Previous to
1865 there were, over 500 of a colored population in Ingersoll andthey migrated to the sunny south
as soon the Civil War was over. In
the obituary of Washington Bevins, who resided on Wellington
street, immediately behind the present day Mason apartments, itstated that Mr. Bevins was 112
years of age, born in New- Orleans
and escaped to Canada at the turnof the nineteenth century. All of
his survivors were listed, as livingin New Orleans “as they left hereshortly after the war terminated."
After the Service, Card*
Because of the extreme heat, weheaded north to a more suitableclime and spent a couple of days in
Saint Louis. The only thing thatimpressed me there ... it seemed so
much out or the ordinary . . . wasa church sign that read, “After the
service, Dancing and Cards. Television. Reading and writing room open
9.30 a.m. to 11.30 p.m." FromSaint Louis we caine on to Detroit
a pn etthnserdceOBati” pand spent three days there and fin
ally home to good old Ingersoll..I would say that Chicago has the
finest traffic signals, especially forpedestrians. It is a two-system affair
that tellg the people when to WALKand when to STOP. At first, it seems
bewildering because the light turnsgreen, but the sign remains STOP
for a few seconds. Cars rush by andthen the WALK sign lights up and
the cars halt in all directions topermit the pedestrian to cross in
safety. Laredo has the worse system.They have stop and go lights, but
nobody pays any attention to them!The motorist eases up to a red light,
takes a peek, then darts across.Omaha has the finest business
district, both in buildings and prices.
Clothing and furniture were ridiculously cheap compared to othercities. One could obtain a good
breakfast of ham and eggs for as
low as 39 cents. A turkey dinnercost 55 cents. Cotton dresses in the
latest styles were three for 15.99!Little Rock appeared the dearest
A souvenir china plate, depictingthe State capitol building, cost $8!
After digesting this price I decidedto retain my eight shekels and let
the State capitol remain in Little
Rock ... £t is a fine building andit is constructed on a nice site.
Western MustangsHave Easy WinOver O.A.C. Aggies
Showing * game-winning combination, the Western Mustangs,
(fresh from their pigskin victoriesJ7opened their hockey season at the
Arena, Friday night, with a 7 to 3win over the O.A.C. Aggies.Western's greatest Superioritywas in attack, with the line ofChurch, Peters and Gosnage, particularly outstanding. MacDonald,Wes Williams and Jerry Fewster,were all stellar performers on defense, the latter setting up severalscoring plays, and opening the
Western account himself.It took the purple-and-whites awhile to settle down to the Aggies'
rush tactics, and all through thegame the Guelph crew were danger
ous. They relied on surprise rushesrather than combination plays—as
were used by the Mustangs—andseveral times tested young Bill Dev
lin’s playing his first game in thenets for Western.It was one of those typicallyGuelph surprise moves that caught
Western napping at 2.05 in thefirst period, Hamil scoring from
Hutchison. Then, with Westernleading 2 to 1, Hammil again sprung
a surprise, latching into a loosepuck at centre ice and roaring in
before Western realized what washappening. With the periods being
played a straight 22 minutes, withno time out, Western went ahead at
21.10.In the second period, the Mus
tangs had a greater margin of theplay, frequently penning O.A.C. into
their own end for a minute or two.
Church and Gossage were the scorers in this period.Western were in front 7 to 2 be
fore Guelph finally unleashed thepicture goal of the evening, at 15.00
of the last stanza. From behind theirown blue line, McLean and McRae
combined to go clean through theWestern team and McLean drew
Devlin before shooting into the unguarded corner.
Actually O.A.C. had more of theplay than was readily.apparent, for
Western only outshqt'1 them 39 to
31.

Hundreds of eager pupils and proudparents and relatives jammed St. James’Anglican Parish'Hall Monday, for the
annual commencement exercises of theIngersoll Public Schools. Gordon B.
Henry, chairman of the prize committee, presided over the dispensation ofscores of diplomas, medals, cup* andmoney award* for everything frompunctuality to scholastic ability.Mr. Henry, in hi* opening remarks,
said there were now over 900 pupil*
in Victory Memorial and Princes*Elizabeth public schools “and the re
sponsibility of ensuring that our youngsters get a good and proper education
— one befitting the youngsters ofIngersoll — is a heavy one.” He said
Ingersoll's public school teachers weresparing neither time nor effort to
discharge their duties to the fullest.“We, on the school board, are very
proud of our teaching staff and ourpupils,” he said. “They are second to

"The young people are the ones to
help. Unless we do a job for them,
Lionism and our civilization is going
to disappear,” warned Kay D. Kay
lor, Deputy District Governor, when
speaking to the Ingersoll Lions Club
on his official visit Monday night.“At the moment”, he said, “the
indications are that our civilizationis following the same paths that ledto the downfall of many other bygone civilizations. The Egyptian, the
Grecian, the Roman. They all endedthe same way.“For those of us who think, andcare about it, there is a very real
warning in these signs. Our onlyhope of salvation is in our young
people, for they are the ones whoare going to be the new profession
als, the new workers, the new planners—yes, even the new Lions—when we are ready to hang up our
tools.“We must help our young folk,otherwise we are finished. The Kor
ean situation can easily spread until
it engulfs the whole world, and if itdoes it will mark the beginning of
the end. Our only hope is to trainthe young people to carry on where
we leave off.”The Deputy District Governorwas accompanied by International
two officers a bit late.Bro. “Pep” Perrin of CourtEclipse, London, and district organizer, dropped in again with openinvitation to their euchres; andsoon we get a chance at that Gates
Trophy at Brantford, carpetball ofcourse—you know the rest.
For details of this and some realsurprises, members must be out to

Things just weren’t the same atI.C.I. last week. If you opened a
door you were liable to be met witha blast from a trombone, the clash ofcymbals, or the booming of a big bass
drum. It was nothing to worry aboutthough—just a bit of campaigning for
positions on the Literary Society executive. The campaign speeches were
given in the gym Friday with TomDouglas acting as chairman in hisusual inimitable manner. The elec
tion of officers wg8 held Monday.Bruce Fraser won the coveted position
of president.• • •
