Ontario department of highways of ficials said that the survey stakes,marked trees, and other markings set up in the area are in reality a controlline for aerial photographic surveys. Actual road surveys are now madefrom the air, it was stated, with routes being marked out on the basis of information shown cm the aerial photographs J. D. Millar, deputy minister of highways, emphasized that the survey inthe Salford area was just one of severalthat will be made.

Outlines Procedure To Establish Town Planning Procedure to set up town planningin Ingersoll was outlined to town council Tuesday night in a letter fromN. Keefer, the community planning branch, Ontario Department of Planning and Development, Toronto. With town planning and zoning beingurged from all quarters, Town Clerk Elmer Winlaw had written Queen’sPark, asking how to go about it. Keeferreplied that council first had to decide the extent of the area to be planned—whether it was to be only in Inger soll, or whether it was to includesections of adjoining townships. If it was to be the former, thencouncil, by resolution, should ask the minister of planning and developmentto define the planning area. If it was to be the second, then the town shouldtake up the'matter with the townships councils, have them prepare resolutionson the matter, the total brief to besubmitted to the minister. Once the area had been defined, atown planning board would be set up, of three, five or eight members, withmembers to be appointed or designated by the council, or councils. To put aland use map into effect, outlining what could be built where, the townmust pass a by-law following a public hearing on the proposals before theOntario Municipal Board.Council took no action and it wasindicated the matter will be left forthe new council, which takes overJan. 2, and when Councillor-elect HarryW. Fick, strong proponent of town planning, takes his seat. There arethree council meetings that day, in cidentally. The farewell meeting ofthe 1950 council, inaugural and swear ing of 1951 members, and, in the eveninc, regular meeting of council.J. Cameron Wilson, chairman of the Upper Thames River ConservationAuthority, urged re-appointment of Gordon Pittock as Ingersoll’s representative. He had given splendid serv ice, said Mr. Wilson, and his experienceand advice were greatly valued. With big projects coming up, he said, continuity of Authority membership was essential.A snowpkSw bill of $4 to the County of Oxford for one hour’s work lastMarch was oxaved. Council learned that $597 was paid into Ingersoll parking meters during November.Council authorized the mayor to pro claim Tuesdav. December 26, BoxingDay, a civic holiday. It was decided to refund to Christina Armour McNaughton Chapter $10 paid for use of the town hall, Dec. 10. Mail Early For Christmas There's never enough time to getall your Christmas mailing done the last few days before Christmas, so whynot plan to do it early this year?

The chairman’s Christma8 gestureto his board, the principals of theschools, T. J.

The hired man had been with them only txyo weeks.The tractor was last seen pounding down a sideroad. MIL^ PRICE UP CENT A QUART An increase of one cent per quart of milk in Ingersoll and district wasannounced toy Ingersoll’s three dairies this week.Officials said the move was madereluctantly, but was necessary be cause of increased costs. They notedthat Ingersoll was one of the very- last to go to 19 cents. Little Friend of Ingersoll Voted Detroit’s Loveliest A pretty brown-haired, blue-eyed little girl of four years, who spends a let of time each year in Ingersoll, has been chosen Detroit's most beautiful J baby.i She is Ellen Elizabeth Carr, daughter. of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Carr, and she• can be considered part of Ingersoll formunicipal pride’s sake because hermother came from Ingersoll, and hergrandmother and various aunts anduncles also live here.Her mother is the former Catherine Johnston, sister of Miss Mary Johnstonand Tom Johnston, and her grand mother is Mrs. Elizabeth Johnston!King Street West. Her dad told The Tribune from Detroit that perhaps itwould be legitimate for Ingersoll tr claim a share in Ellen’s win over 4,000other youngsters ranging from weeks old to five years, because she doesindeed spend a lot of time here, and has a lot of fun. too.In fact, said Mr. Carr. Ellen will beover shortly from Detroit to spend a month or so with her grandmother and other relatives.The contest that Ellen, the Carrs’only child, won was sponsored by the Detroit Junior Chamber of Commercein promoting a “Better Baby Health Week." Preliminaries started almost two months ago, and among otherthings Ellen had to pass both an in telligence test and a physical.“She got 99.1 per cent on her physical," said Mr. Carr, who is a toolmaker. “Not bad, eh!”The youngsters progressed in classes, he said. Ellen won her group—4-5years—and then went on to win the works.“We're certainly very proud of her,” said her father. Ellen won the first-place choice of 80 per cent of the- judges.“And her new glory hasn’t upset hera bit," said Mr. Carr. Part of her winnings includes a down payment on an■nsurance policy that will guaranteeher a college education.The Carrs have been married about 18 years, waiting 13 years for theirfirst and only child. Their meeting came about in Ingersoll when Mr. Carrcame down from Detroit to visit as a guest of Jock Johnston.Unfortunately, Mrs. Carr could not attend the ceremony to see her littledaughter actually crowned most beauti ful of them all. Her father dressedthe little girl and proudly marched her to Convention Hall for the final judging. And Ellen did them — and nil herIngersoll friends and relatives — proud! said.“This has been the third year ofthe Public School Board,” he said,, “and also the one of greatest accom-lplishment We have seen the official opening of the Princess ElizabethSchool addition, and there have been many improvements to the old building and to the Victory Memorial School.” He complimented TrusteesLeaper and Clifton on the work oftheir building committees for the two schols, and said that Trustee McKenzie had done a good job with themanual training and home economics | classes.

"The indications are that today we are follow ing the same downward paths that were trod by previous—and bygone—civilizations.” There is food for a great deal of thought in that one sen tence spoken by Kay D. Kaylor, of Kitchener, to the Lions Club last week. For many years past, men have—at various times—voiced a certain uneasiness about the way history seems to be repeating itself. The Egyptian, the Roman, the Grecian and other civilizations all disintegrated through the pounding of continual warfare. In a period of 31 years, (almost to the day), our civilization underwent two back-breaking wars. Now, only five years later, the indications are that we are heading full tilt for another—and even worse-—conflict. History it seems, works like a clock pendulum. First it swings one way, then the other. Right now, it appears to be swinging back. Civilization as we know it today is on the downgrade in spite of ‘modern science’, and its many great advances, Signs are already evident that the Eastern coun tries—seats of bygone dynasties—are again awakening. Can anything be done? Mr. Kaylor, (and he, as a supervisor of a children’s home should know), says we should do more and more to train our youth. But that is not really enough. Men. it seems, must also learn to train themselves. More of the spirit so evident in service clubs is badly needed. In our international relations, in our world economies, we must find a balance of give and take. For just as no one country can take all and give none, neither can any power give all and take nothing as some have done. Maybe, also, we need the helping hand of God. But it is our experience that that hand is not given except to those who first make an honest endeavour to help themselves. Christmas Fires Going to have a Christmas tree this year? One with lots of pretty, sparkling decorations, maybe? Going to hang colored Ights over it and around the house? Going to take a few simple precautions to prevent a fire? Fires don't seem to have very much in common ■with Christmas trees, colored lights and decor ations at first glance. Yet each year there are a sudden spate of house fires around Christmas ' time. Every year the Christmas celebrations hundreds of families are spoilt because of a fire. It isn’t exactly carelessness that causes these conflagrations—it is more lack of knowledge. One of the most common, for instance, is the kind that starts from the tree itself catching fire. Anyone who has ever seen eedar burn will tell you it is next to impossible to stop. A cedar tree will ig nite just from an overheated electric light bulbSo if you are going to hang strings of lights around the tree take a little extra care when put ting them up, and ensure they are not touching the tree. There are three other main causes of fires. In order, they are: Using paper decorations that are not fireproof. Using lighted candles in the wrong places, overloading circuits with extra strings of lights. Each of these causes has an elementary pre caution. For instance, there are plenty of reput able paper decorations on the market that are guaranteed fireproof. Putting candles where they can set fire to something is just plain stupidity. And of course, overloading circuits is something any electrician, (professional or amateur), can advise you on. So. have a good celebration, ax gaudy and dec orative as you like. But, too, have a little care. It may help save your house. Sight-Sewering We of the newspaper fraternity are usually pretty well immune to surprise by new goings on in this (sometimes) screwy world we live in, but one the other day really got up and hit us between the eyes. "Trip through Paris sewers new sightseeing attraction,’* said the headline. That was one queer enough to stop a thousand pound weight in full flight. Every Thursday in summer (every other Thursday in winter), it seems that a Stygian character, in blue overalls, long rubber boots, and sailor cap, pops out among the elegant Parisian west-enderg in front of Mad eleine Church and starts to sell tickets through the sewers of the French capita). Shades of John Bunyan! Personally, if such a thing happened while we were walking in the square we’d either drop down in a dead faint or conclude we had a glass too much of wine witn our luncheon. Those French apertifs are power ful medicine! Visitors descend a winding staircase and find themselves in an arched gallery built with pav ing stones. A small motor boat awaits them and whisks them away on a trip through the 11 foot wide, 3 foot deep sewef system of Paris. With out even a gaa mask!No doubt, some people, especially tourists, will do almost anything for a thrill. However, speak ing for ourselves, if we did ever go down the French sewers it wouldn’t be ns paying them, but vice-veraa. And even then, only on a etrict understanding that Oraon Welle* and the Phantom ofOpera were kept under lock and key while we were down there! Joy Through Discards There is nothing more useless in a home than, a pair of skates someone has outgrown. But they may be of great value to someone else. A Toronto Home and School Assoc, thought upon this particular situation, and pulled off what we think to an excellent idea—one that might be easily tried out here, to the interest of the owner of the "useless” skates, someone who wants a pair but feels he can't buy, or doesn’t want to buy new ones, and to the Home and School Association. The Toronto group set a day on which all folks with tired, old, and slightly outgrown new skates which were just cluttering up their homes, would bring them to a specified shop or room. The group charged 10 cents handling charge per pair of skates, and that's where the Home and School made a little something. Then, when they had all the skates arranged and catalogued, they invited in people who might want a pair of skates, to look them over and see if any suited. Many pairs were sold. So, everyone was happy. The “useless” skates brought some thing to the owner; they were procured cheaply by someone seeking a pair, and the Home and School group made some money for their activ ities, and also gained the satisfaction of a job well done. Heart’s Door William Holman Hunt, the great English artist of the pre-Raphaelite school, painted a garden scene which was hung at the Royal Academy in London. The painting was his now world-famous, "Light of the World”, and shows the Master standing in the garden at night, holding a lantern. He is knocking on the door and awaiting an answer. A critic looking at the painting turned to the artist and said, "Lovely painting, Mr. Hunt, but you’ve forgotten something. That door upon which the Master is knocking ... is it never to be opened? You have forgotten to put on the door knob.” William Holman Hunt hadn’t forgotten, rather he was painting a moral that is as true today as it was then. He smiled understandingly at the critic and said, “My friend, that door on which the Master is knocking- is not just an ordinary door. It is the door to the human heart. It needs no knob, because it can only be opened from with in." Let’s Not Wait We doubt that there is a busier intersection in country than the corner of Thames and Charles streets. Or a trickier one. As we have mentioned in previous editorials, it is as much as a pedestrian’s life is worth to try and get from one corner to another, and some thing must be done before someone gets killed. Perhaps no one has been killed in recent years; that is no surety someone won’t be tomorrow. And then it will be too late. Several suggestions have been offered. One is that west-bound traffic be diverted north on Mu tual street, across the river, along Carnegie street, and into Thames. To our mind, that would require an awful lot of fixing. Then the suggestion is offered that right turnson a red light be prohibited. That can be done. Or, this is our suggestion, why not install those type of lights which have a “walk” light for ped estrians? With such lights, traffic is halted in every direction, and pedestrians alone arc per mitted to walk. | Of course it would slow traffic down. And what’s wrong with that! Right now, the poor pedestrian doesn’t know which way to look when htf makes his frantic dash across the street—and then, generally, he looks‘ the wrong way. W hat Others S ay: Pardon Our Error It was mentioned recently that typographicalerrors often cause editors and writers headaches.

But there isanother side to it as is set forth here from a contemporary: _“It is an honor to receive a bill. Instead of getting all riled up when the mail brings you a statement of account you should be, genuinely pleased.For the bill is an' indication that someone"has faithin your honesty. “If you never receive a bill, it would indicatethat your credit is worthless, and think no oneis willing to take your word that you will pay.“Credit is the most valuable thing a personcan have.

When you paya bill, you are merely being honest I"When you receive a bill, then, meet it if youpossibly can.

To date, no cure or specific preventive measure has been discovered and the disease continues tn baffle the best scientific brains ofthe country. Everyone has had a cold and mostpeople are quite familiar with thesymptoms. The common cold is characterized by (1) generalizedaching, chilliness and a loss of sense of well-being; (2) slight fever insome victims at the onset of a cold; (3) dryness and discomfort of thetissues of the nose, throat and upperair passages; (4) the disease usually doea not last more than fi*e or sevendays but fatigue, rawness of the nose or throat, or a dry cough maypersist for days or weeks. (There is usually no redness of the throatin the early stages), (6) a tendencyto develop complications such as sinusitis, bronchitis and ear trouble,resulting from secondary bacterial infection.Colds begin their season in Sep tember and persist to a varying degree throughout the population dur ing the cold months of the year.They produce annoying symptomsbut fortunately they are not serious in themselves in that no one has been known to die from a cold itself. Prevention of the Common Cold A good deal of publicity has beendevoted from time to time to various methods and preparations said tobe effective, specific “cold”' preven tive measures. None of those developed thus far has stood the test •f time. It can be said at this timethat none of the recently developeddrugs or vaccines (subcutaneous or oral) or antibiotics have been shownto have any effect whatever on the general incidence or frequency ofthe common cold. At this stage of knowledge itwould appear that careful attention to general health, directed towardimproving bodily resistance to in fection. is the only opportunityavailable to us in reducing the dis comfort from this common ailment.Proper rest, the right kind and amount of food in the daily diet,appropriate clothes for the weather and careful attention to generalbody hygience is important in devel oping resistance to infection,. Thecorrection of body defects whichpredispose to respiratory infectionsand complication is also important.Since colds appear to be spread by droplet infection, avoid “cold” contacts. If you have a cold, keep it to yourself. Treatment of the Common Cold There ire no specific treatmentmeasures which will affect the course of the common cold once youhave one. There are certain meas ures which are useful in relievingthe unpleasant symptoms of a cold.'A hot drink, an “aspirin” and a goodnight’s rest are probably as good asany of the many which are advocated.Sulpha drugs and penicillin preparations do not appear to affectthe course of the common cold. For this reason, in addition to the possible untoward effects of these drugs on certain individuals, theyhave no place in the treatment of uncomplicated colds.Where these drugs are indicated they shoud be used only on the advice of and under the supervision ofyour physical). —(From The Blue Bell) I Was Nearly Crazy With Fiery Itch-Until I discovered Dr. D.

Common causes ofthese accidents: Racing the train to the crossing—still toopopular and too expensive in lives and limbs—Running intothe sides of trains because of impaired vision or misjudgment of speed and distance; failing to stop in time.

Ate Dinner as House Moved In Old Thamesford Days Mr. Jack Keyes, oldest resident, born in Thamesford, was 79 yearsold. November 17. He was born ina hotel owned by his father, ,whichwas situated where McKay’s garagenow stands. In the early days, said Mr. Keyes,a night’s lodging could be had for 25 c, also a good substantial mealfor the same price. When a man ordered a drink »f whiskey, the bartender set the bottle in front of thecustomer and he poured his own drink at a nickdl a shot. Closinghours were froip 9 p.m. Saturday j night to 6 a.m. Monday morning.Anyone who had imbibed too freely ■ by closing time was not put out, 'The proprietor was compelled togive lodging to the inebriate until he was sober again. Were Three Hotel. There were three hotels in Thamesford in those days. Mr. Keyes has a keen memory and recalled manyevents of the past, Mrs. Keyes fill ing a few details here and there.At one time, Thamesford had two carriage shops, two sawmills, a stavemill and a flax mill that employed approximately 70 ipeople in thesummer time and about half that many in the winter. Women workedfor 30 cents a day. Mr. Keyes worked in the flax mills. The firstyear of his marriage his .wages were60 cents a day. Tailor shops werenumerous at that time. People hadsuits and coats made to order.Shoes also were made up. Mr.Shcwan, grandfather of the Shew- ans now living here, was one of theshoemakers, having his shop on the corner of Dundas and Georgestreet, where the new post office was built There were three blacksmiths in the village; a grist mill, tanner and an ashery. Soap fromthe ashery was sent out to thecountry people and given in ex change for hardwood ashes. These ashes were put into barrels, set inslanting boards and water waspoured over the ashes twice a day, the liquid that trickled from thebarrel becoming a lye. The masonic hall burned down 60years ago. It was built in connect ion with a hotel, on the same groundwhere the present masonic hall is. Harry Wildsr retired circus performer. lived in Thamesford on the property where Johnny Parsonsnow lives. He and his wife used to put on entertainment, Mrs. Wildsdoing the dancing. They had trained buffaloes, also a travelling show called "Babes in the Woods”, which drew crowds of interested people.This was very realistic, as Mr. Keyes recalls it. Good Fall Fair. Years ago, Thamesford held verygood fall fairs and had, as Mr. Keyes said, one of the best Half-mile race tracks in Canada. Trainers from Montreal used to bring ’theirhorses here. It seems they claimedthere was* something good about the soil; the horses never developedsore feet. Mr. Keyes said many of the olderpeople will remember the bad roads that prevailed in the winter .’time.Holes deep enough to obscure a horse and cutter; snowbanks highenough to hide buildings from the passerby. Farmers took hbgs toIngersoll twice a week to the old Packing 'House on the spot whereIngersoH Cheese Co. is now located. They used to kill as many as 1800pigs a day. The pigs were hung on hooks in succession and hauled upand over a huge fire built, in theform of a stack to singe them. C. C. L. Wilson, of an English firm,operated the old Packing ” It -was during 1885 or Ralph Mclx'ud. was the fir<<t cheese- maker, operating in the old woodencheese factory that had been moved here from Mount Elgin to the placenow occupied by the Riverside Poul try Co.Scott Pounds was born on the daythe Scott law, prohibiting the sale of liquor went into effect, that Ishow he acquired his Christian name.Mr. Keyes worked 10 years for T. H. (McCarty, grocer.. Later heworked for iN. C. McCarty, managing the race horses and stables. During the next 36 years, he farmednear Dorchester. On retiring he moved back ot Thamesford. Mr.Keyes stated if he had a choice en returning to active life, it would beto work with race horses again.In the old days he. knew many horsemen and trainers, some ofwhom did some amazingly beautiful fancywork during their leisure time.They used to take salt sacks, made of linen and make them into towelswith deep borders of embroidery and hand drawn work.Mr. and Mrs. Keyes have a wealthof memories and enjoy talking to anyone interested in the past Theyare celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary, Jan, 29, 1951.

Historians and researchers have found many references to butter in records originating earlierthan 2000 B.C. These have beentraced to the early Indians of Asia,the Hebrews, Greeks, Arabs, Egypt ians, Persians, Romans and Teutons.These records also indicate that the churning of butter was done, principally in the cooler latitudes.There are numerous references to butter in the Old Testament. Inthe very first book, Genesis, 18.-8, it is learned that “ ... he (Abraham)took butter, milk and the calf and set it before them - • ” Again, atProverbs, 30:33, “Surely thechurning of milk bringeth forth butter.” Strangely enough, 19 thcentury historians found no traces of the husbandry of milk, giving animals or the use of milk as foodin the histories of the early dweMersof South and North America, Aus tralia or New Zealand, countries,that, today, are noted for their dairy production.

Mix and add remaining in gredients. Scald. If too dry, add alittle warm water at time of using. That more uses were found for butter long before the ChristianEra than are common today, is one of the oddities of the history ofthat natural food. Many properties were attributed to butter by theworld’s early people. The Hindus accounted it a sacred food and itwas used extensively in the greatestand holiest sacrifices of their worship. Butter was the essential to thewedding feast of a Hindu maiden. Macedonians used it as a healingointment and as an internal medi cine in addition to its natural useas food. The Romans used butter to anoint bodies afflicted with pain.All used it as food. Among the early, high people, butter wasmelted and stored and used to en rich other foods prepared for important feasts. These people re garded it as a rich delicacy.That milk or cream would churnInto butter was probably discovered through the early practice of transporting milk in animal skin pouches. There is record of milk souring,fermenting and curdling in such containers, and, in all probability,the swaying, bumpy motion of this method of transport produced butter. It is known that early Arabians used animal skin pouches for thechurning of butter.Obviously there is vast difference between the butter of those earlydays and the 300 or more million pounds now produced every yearin Canada. Their pitifully crude methods of production are supplanted now by streamlined sanitary methods.

Inspection from cow to counter iscompulsory. Health-Giving, Too The ancients did not have these advantages, nor did they have anyknowledge of proteins, vitamins and caloric content. • They seemed torealize, instinctively that butter was a health giving food. People,today, are protected by law against butter of inferior quality. Buttersold now must contain not less than80 per cent of butterfat and notmore than 16 per cent of moisture.Each pound contains about 3,298 or, if a working man consumed noother food than one pound of butter each day. his caloric intakewould be sufficient for his needs.

L.)As I awoke next morning singing "Can the bake a cherry pie, Billy Boy?”tunes and melodies from the rest of the program came quickly to mind.The Commodores, with Leo Lighter,pianist, had given a very fine per formance the evening before as one ofthe Collegiate Concert Series; and they scarcely needed an introduction by Mr.J. C. Herbert since many in theaudience remembered their first performance here last year with a greatdeal of pleasure.The group of Negro Spirituals provedto be universally popular; and included “Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho”,“Nobody Knows" and “De Gospel Train.” The breezy collection of seachanty songs and folk tunes was very gay and full of melody; they includedin this, what the Commodores term will soon be an American folk tune;namely, “Dry Bones." Leo Lighter's program was an interesting contrast from the gay, rollicking, amusing songs of the quartette, and provided the beautiful, well-knownmelodies of Claire De Lune, by De bussy, and Liebestraum by Liszt, nswell as the first movement of Beetho ven's Moonlight Sonata and Rachmaninoffs Prelude in G Minor and several others.

Thedeath rate has dropped tremen dously, he said, but it will drop evenfurther when a means is found fordiscovering it before symptoms. Unfortunately, he said, most T.B.deaths occur when a person is most valuable—between 20 and 45.He outlined the program underway to control T.B. and said peoplecan contribute by taking advantageof the FREE clinics, with X-ray, available. Clinics are being conducted all the time, throughout the province, he said. Then, he said,_ inmany hospitals all patients enterin’ can have this X-ray check at a nominal cost, and this, too, was catching tlic disease in many instances before it could get too far underway.

We are slipshod,careless, abrupt and unfinished in casual conversation. But the spokenword is gone with the breath withwhich it is uttered. Not so thewritten word. There the soul-matesof the split infinitive are forever separated by an impassable Heeles-pont. The uprooted and transplanted prepostion‘sticks out like the proverbial sore thumb, at the end of thesentence to prod the inquisitive eye. And there, let me confess, usagehas now made the place of the preposition less important. As theeditorial cleverly pointed out, a sentence can sound very stilted if the dire results of a split personality or the split atom, but why use it ifit is simple to avoid it?iMan has made rules for every thing since he emerged from thejungle, and men have been bent on throwing them out or ignoring themever since.

Brevity and clarity are the firstnecessity in written speech. 1 agree heartily. But does a split infinitiveor a misplaced preposition make an unclear statement clear, or a properly wedded Infinitive or well-placedpreposition make a clear statement less understandable? We doubt it.And what's wrong with a little elegance in writing? Even if theover-elaborate and ornate style of writing of other days has lost favour, is it necessary to throw away all pretence at beauty? A man mayin the intimacies of his own home, relax in old clothes and down-at-heel slippers and still be * very com panionable fellow, but what wifedoesn’t enjoy seeing him spruced up and a little elegant when thetime demands?

Page 10 The Ingersoll Tribune, Thursday, December 7, 1950Misses Annual Deer Hunt For First Time in 4 8 Years By Beb Collin* On those chilly mornings whenthere is a frosty bite to the air. Tom Morrison, of 997 Lorpe avenue,London, looks wistfully at his Winchester .3865.This year, for the first time in44 seasons, he didn't take the rifle down and head for the north woods.This year, for the first time since1902, London East’s senior huntermissed a deer hunting season.Hunting has thinned out his fav orite haunts nnd, anyway, 81-year-old Thomas Morrison decided he wasn't quite up to a two-week hikein the woods. But sprightly Mt.Morrison isn’t downhearted—he has enough memories to last him an other half-century.His amazing record as a hunterbegan when he still lived around his native Dorchester. He and a fewfriends began making annual trips to the deer country around Sudbury. They would spend two weeks in the woods and, in the beginning,found plenty of game. "Everybody would bring back abuck, sometimes two." Mr. Morrison remembers.At his home he still has twomounted deer heads. In the garage is a huge set of moose antlers—measuring four feet two inches fromtip to tip, souvenir of a specimen he bagged 33 years ago.The hunters first called them selves the Harrietsville Hunt Cluband later the Dorchester Hunt Club. | Today only one other member ofthe originals, George Johnston of Avon, is still living.“We used to travel by train,”says Mr. Morrison. “Then about 30 years ago I left the farm and cameto woik for the C.N.R. carshops in London. One year I got them to fixup a private car for our party.”In 1949, for the first time, the hunters motored to the northlsnd.In recent years they have been visiting‘the South Metagawan areanear Parry Sound. “The hunting has been thinningout,” Mr. Morrison says. “Last year some of the fellows saw a bear butI only saw chipmunks!” His hunting days may be over butMr. Morrison still is aetve in fraternal life. In 1945 he was present ed with the 50 years a Past Masterjewel of the Masonic Order, becom ing the first man in London to re receive the award.He and Mrs. Morrison have beenmarried 54 years. Mrs. Morrison is happv enough that the hunting tripsare over. She remembers the work involved in such expeditions andhow the party, numbering from seven to 15 men would eat 4J) loaves of bread!Mr. Morrison is content, too. Hemay not have a deer hunt this year, but he has his gun, his trophies afew photographs—and 48 years of memories.

Care For Trees Or Lose Them There are so many reasons for the death of trees that this questionis one of the hardest for the forest ers of the Department of Lands andForests to answer.Trees take so Jong to grow that they often cause a lot of concernwhen they die As far as the land owner is concerned, his life is tooshort to ever see another tree take its place.Disturbances of trees that may lead to their death may be dividedinto three general groups: Diseases, insects, and other factors, such as.injuries or soil and water changes. Diseases of the foliage can. often berented directly by spraying. Insects can also be killed by poisons—butthere is one general principle in the treatment of trees that all treeowners should keep in mind—trees do not generally become diseased orattacked by insects unless they areunhealthy in the first place. Most trees diseases require a wound mthe tree before they can enter. In sects will usually attack only oldor unhealthy trees in preference to healthy ones.Owners who value their woodlots arc often very concerned when theyobserve trees dying. Trees as they increase in size require more spacefor their crowns and roots. They obtain this'by crowding out adjacent trees. A natural stand of trees will decrease from many thousandsto one or two hundred over a period of one hundred years. The loss otan old tree in a woodlot is not so serious if there arc lots of youngertrees on the property to take its place.The best way to keep your trees from dvinij is to keep them healthyand vigorous. Trees growing on the wrong type of soil are usually unhealthy. Leaves are the naturalfertilizer for trees, and if this is not replaced by artificial fertilizer, the soil may become so depletedthat the trees may die. In cities,oeople usually rake up all the leaves each fall. Poor water supply, trampled soil, smoke and not enough light are some other reasons forthe decline of trees in a city. Old age is one of the most importantcauses for a tree to lose its vigor. veteran Hunter 'lom Morrison still keeps his rifle intrim, but this year, for the first time since 1902, hemissed a hunting season. As an original member ofthe Harrietsville Hunt Club, Mr. Morrison made hunting trips to the north woods for 48 consecutive years.Today the 81-year-old East Londoner, formerly ofDorchester, and George Johnston, of Avon, are theonly living members of the original club. — (Courtesy London Free Press.)

Back Some lime kilns standing in afair state of preservation several years ago by Number 2 Highway inthe fields at Beachville were landmarks on the site of an old industry. The product of their manufacturewent into the mortar binding the brick and stone of hundreds of bull-1dings of the whole region round-]about Travellers coming upon the burn-!ing kilns, especially at night, were' struck by the strangeness of thescene. One wrote: “In passing from! the Town of Woodstock to Oxford Iwe came to the Village of Beach-! ville. Mueb lime is burned here andthe huge fires in the kiln openingsglowed like beacons lighting us on the way.”A local poet, James McIntyre, of* Ingersoll, whose “Poems” wereprinted in book form in his own town in 1899 “at the office of theChronicle”, made Beachville one of the subjects of his "Sketches on theBunks of the Canadian Thames,”and of course, noted the lime kilns in his poem. Of Beachville, village of the plain.We njw will sing a short refrain, For here the Thames does oleasantflow, And churni to landscape doth bestow; Through river here it is not deep, IYet banks slope graceful up the Isteep, | And from the summit of the hillsYou look down on the famed lima > kilns,And 'tis full worthy poet’s rhymeThe whiteness of your pure white lime.Your glory never shall be gone fWhile you have quarries of this stone,In influence you yet will waxWith mils for flour and also flax.

Forwards did not play their positions and passes went begging. Defendersseemed afraid to tackle men and goals were scored. Several of thegodls that beat Ditchbum were caused just by defencemen blocking his view and yet doing nothing to halt the Simcoe puck carrier.During the game, the Ingersoll tender had 56 shots poured at him,while his team replied with 36, many of which were weak, long-range efforts that barely reached the Simcoe goal.The, line-ups: Simcoe—Goal,Grant; defence, Phillips, Campbell;centre, Bentley; wings, C.

Probably the next outstandingboy who shines in the nets h Mike Shelton, who moved up from theSquirts last year. Another goalie moved up from th* lower league who isshowing well is Alan Cox. A new goalie took his place between the postslast Saturday in the person of Doug Williamson. This being Doug's firstappearance, he, of cour*j, lacked polishbut he showed great promise for the future. Other possibilities for goaliesthis year are Gerry Hutson and Jack Wallace. To the four who make thegrade, lots of luck. Having discussed the situation withthe Recreational Director, Larry Harris, is was decided that this Saturday,December 9th, would be the last prac tice session for the Pee-Wees. December 16th the first regular games willbe played. So fellas, be out this Satur day to get a position on the teams.It is expected that this week will *m th* last practice of the Bantamsand Midgets. Schedule* will probablybe drawn up early next week, so watchthe bulletin boards at school and this column for team lists and schedules.This column will appear each week with a summary of the game* played,the three star selections for the week, etc. So watch each week for it.

Minor Hockey (By Ye Puck Chaser) He shoots! He scores! Yes, this _the famous call of Foster Hewitt every . Saturday night, coast to coast. But ;don't think that is the only place that■ hockey players shoot and score in thetwine. s Every Thursday night, between 4:30and 6:30 pjn., and 7:00 and 8:30 psn., and Saturday mornings, between 9and 11, the boys battle up and down the ice to see which is the victor. Regular game schedules have as yetto be drawn up, and the boys are playing with all their hearts to get arating for a team position. Ye writer, having viewed the proceedings last Thursday during theBantam practice, was very impressed. Outstanding for the goal getters were George Lewis. Ross Ward, JimmyThain, Ted Witty and Bob Shelton. Especially noteworthy on defence wereRonnie Wilson and Freddie Brewer. Probably the most oustanding goaliein this division is Bob "Knobby” Kimberley. Bob. using methods ofTurk Broda and Harry Lumley, is making a name for himself betweenthe goalposts. Last Saturday morning, ye writerwent down to the arena to sec how the Pce-Wees were shaping up. Probably the most outstanding forward in the whole group was Alan Hinge.There is a boy who has all the abilities of another Teeder Kennedy. Alan, whocan play either wing or centre ef fectively, looks like the perfect successor to Jimmy Thain of last year's Pee-Wees. Lots of luck in the future,Alan! Alan was not the only flashy forward there last Saturday. Others equally asimpressive were Martin Herbert, Roger Henhawke (following in the footstepsof the famous “Chief’), Richard Arms,Jimmv Vyse, Jon Fellow, Len Thomp son, Warren Staples, Gary Wright, and Wayne Sowler. Some of these boys, although not present last Saturday, have shown well in other practice sessions. is Isn’t We’d like to remind you to get started.
