Navy, stationed at the Pacific outpost of Guam.Eugene gets The Tribune, and Tues­ day. just six days after it waswritten. The Tribune received the following most interesting letter Naval Air Station,Agana, Guam,Wednesday, February 28, 1951 I have just received three copiesof your newspaper, which my mother and father (Mr. and Mrs.Clarence Weston) sent me. My father had previously said that yourpaper would like for me to write and tell you just what Guam islike. Well, this is my attempt to do just that111 start by telling you just how I came to Guam. Last September25, 1950, I joined the Navy at Cleve­ land, Ohio (where I made my homewhen I left home in February of 1948), and was sworn in at Detroit,Mich. Then I was sent to the “Great Lakes Naval Training Center”,where I went through Boot Camp, and believe me, that’s just what itis “Boot.” On December 19th I graduated and on December 21st,boarded a troop train for San Francisco. I’ll never forget the dayI arrived at Treasure Island, be­ cause it was the 25th of December,the day I wanted to be home. Treasure Island is a "receivingstation". There I received another brief medical, and waited tor thetransportation to bring me to Guam. On January 9th, 1951, I boarded the“General Hugh J. Gaffey” (a trans­port ship) and sailed on the 10th ofJanuary. There were about 2,000troops aboard (sailors, marines, airforce) and the first night out nearlyeveryone was seasick. I was noexception either, because 1 wasreally sick, not sick enough to die, but wished 1 had been. Afterthat first night everyone felt fine, and we all enjoyed the remainderof the trip. On the morning of the fifth day we docked at “Pearl Har­bor”; we all had five hours ashore. I spent mine at Honolulu. It reallyis a beautiful city, but I was rather disappointed because there wasn’t agrass skirt to be seen. Next stop was at “Kivjalien”. It is a verysmall island, and it's highest point is only 8 feet above sea level.Then on to another island called “Eniwetok”. On both islands youcould see the landing craft, and barges used by the Japanese. Finally, after 15 days at sea, we putinto Apra Harbor, Guam. Here I joined the “21st TransportationSquadron.” Guam itself is known as the“Bermuda of the Pacific”, and is the largest of the “Marianas Islands".It has an area of 206 square miles, is 32 miles long, and 4 to 10 mileswide. The U. S. got the Island from Spain in the "Treaty of Paris" andhas had a naval base here ever since. The population is approxi­mately 22,000, mostly mixed races. Tlie main agricultural products arecom, rice and sugar. There are a lot of coconut trees. Just like mapletrees back home. I missed breakfast one morning, so two of us climbeda coconut tree and got coconut for our morning chow. Among thenatives the catholic religion is dominant, due to the fact Spanishmissionaries settled the island. A lot of the natives work for thegovernment at military bases on the island. There are still some Japanesesoldiers up in the mountains, and several men have been shot whileout sightseeing too far away from the main roads. Guess they don’tknow the war is over. The island has no snakes or harmful spiders(other than the Banana Spider), rodents are plentiful and the mos­quitos are monsters. There are plenty of lizards. The lizards barklike dogs (small pups). They kept me awake the first week here, butnow I’m used to kicking them out of my bunk so I can go to sleep.They're really cute little fellows. Anyway, Til be here 18 months, andafter that it's anyone's guess. The Navy is a good life, but I’d much rather be back at my old occupation.Its very nice to get the home­ town paper, and I thought thephotographs in the January 4th edition, entitled "This Is My HomeTown" were really good. I'd like to send some pictures of Guam,but I haven't any good ones as yet—maybe later. Td very much appreciate a letter from some of the people in my oldhome town, and will be glad toanswer them all. Most of my spare time is spent writing letters, as thereisn’t much else to do. Well, that's about it so I’ll close. Yours truly,Eugene Haines.

Chairman, IngersollKiwanis Crippled Children’sCommitteeThe Ingersoll Kiwanis Club is spon­soring the sale of Easter Seals in thisdistrict in connection with the Annual Appeal for Funds on behalf of theOntario Society for Crippled Children. The money raised in this district bythe sale of these seals is jointly ad­ ministered by the Club and the On­tario Society for Crippled Children. At the present time, the IngersollKiwanis Club have 16 active cases of children they are looking after—endsome of these are now well on the road to the full normal use of theirlimbs as the result of needed care, hospitalization and treatment they havereceived through the Kiwanis Club, made possible by the sale of EasterSeals in this district During 1950, 32 separate trips weremade to London, taking children to the Orthopaedic Clinic or to a hospitalin London for admission. Nine chil­ dren were admitted to various hospi­tals in Ingersoll, Woodstock, London and Toronto for treatment—and someof these children were in hospital for a considerable length of time.The members of the Ingersoll Ki­ wanis Club drive several hundredmiles each year at their own expense, taking these children to and fromhospitals and clinics and visiting them. And, in addition to this, parents ofsome arrange their own transportation. This is where, beginning Community Date Book will be ran each week.

Let Prisoners Work For Meal Councillor Smith’s Proposal Instead of the town paying for meals for money-less prisoners heldby police, let them work it out help­ ing the works department, Council- ;lor Stanley J. (Smith suggested to < council Monday night.•Mr. Smith, chairman of- the reliefand welfare committee, rose to pro­ test including an item of $2.45 forfood and snacks submitted by pol­ ice in the indigenta* bills. It should,he suggested, be put in the police account He noted that while theindigents’ account had only a $2000 .budget, the police was $16,000.“We should go back to the old days," he said. "Let the prisoners—if that is who the meals were for— put in a couple of hours with theworks department. We used to have a woodpile here and that kept themout of town."Councillor Fred Wurker said theitem belonged to the indigent ac­count. Councillor Norm Pembleton agreed. “It's relief”, he felt. "Thepeople had to eat; they had no money. We had to feed them.""Then,’* retorted Mr. Smith, "if they're fined, shouldn’t a portion ofthe fine be turned back to us, to the indigent account^”“It comes out of our pockets, no matter which account it is chargedto”, remarked Mr. Pembleton. “The amount is insignificant, it’s the principle,” declared Mr. Wurker.Town Clerk Elmer Winlaw saidthere was $400 set up in the indi­gent account to cover such items,and others, including funerals. It used to be called the police and in­digent account; then just police, then relief and welfare account Itwas his view it should be okayed bythe police chairman, then paid by the indigent account“I wouldn’t want the responsibil­ ity of a man starving to death goingthrough our town,” said Mr. Smith, “but if the police pick him up it istheir responsibility.”“If he’s an able-bodied man, turnhim over to the board of works,’’suggested Councillor <?. A. Eidt.“We can’t lend you a man held bypolice,” declared Mr. Winlaw. The item is to be investigated. fn Senn Edwin’s "Soundtrack" inNew Liberty, he notes: "Stanley Minshall, a native of Ingersoll, Ont,rated the most successful mayor Florida ever had." Ingersoll Receives “Gift” of $8,397.05 From Ontario Hydro Ingersoll’s Public Utilities Com­mission got a "gift” of $8,397.05 from the Ontario Hydro this week. The cheque was a refund on the costof power for 1950, and, according to D. M. Seath, P.U.C. manager,the money will likely be turned back into impovements in the system.He explained that the cheque is the annual adjustment of powercosts, charged by the Ontario Hydro on the previous year’s business andis usually referred to as the "13th power bill”. This year it is littlelarger than usual, owing to the un­ expected revenue to the Ontariosystem during the year, as explain­ ed by Chairman Saunders of theH.E.P.C. at the annual O.M.E.A. convention in Toronto recently. Thetotal refund to the various munici­ palities will amount to $3,342,903.This present refund is also larger owing to the fact that the H.E.P.C.year now ends at the end of Decem­ ber, instead of the end of Octoberas formerly, adding two moremonths’ revenue. Parking, Speeding N ear Schools Subject For Early Conference The total amount paid out for hospita­ lization and some appliances in 1950by this Committee of the Kiwanis Club amounted to $98614. This is forhospital treatment only and does not include any doctors’ fees, as doctorsgive their services gratia. But the value received by these children wasfar in excess of the amount spent. The Ontario Society for CrippledChildren is performing a worthwhile service for the physically-handicappedchildren in Ontario and is deservingof the support of every man and womanin the Province. THIS IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY —of helping this important work by buying Easter Seals through the Ki­ wanis Club of Ingersoll at the RoyalBank of Canada in Ingersoll. $3,000 Objective Set For Red Cross Mr. Bill Dawson, WoodstockMassey—Harris manager, has been appointed campaign manager forthe 1951 Red Cross campaign in Ox­ ford County , Dr. 0.

Trustee Walter Leaper said thereshould be signs on Thames St North as cars go whirling by without anythought of the hundreds of school youngsters in the vicinity. "PrincessElizabeth is about the only school in the country without signs,” he re­marked.Principal A. G. Murray informed theboard that “half our pupils” were affected at one time or another bythe flu epidemic, now apparently on the wane. Attendance was now im­proving, he said. He said a total of nine teachers in both public schools had been away.It was the worst epidemic they hadhad, he said, remarking they had nothad to close any rooms, but hoping the epidemic was really on the decline,“because I don’t know how long our supply of supply teachers will holdout” The board, incidentally, increased the daily rate for supply teachers to$9, effective March 1st, to be in line with the regular salary schedule.Principal Murray, also acting as secretary in the absence of J. J. Mc­Leod, and attendance officer in the absence of John Wilford, said therehad been an average attendance of 777 or 89 per cent during February atthe schools with 1,705 days lost through sickness.He said 70 beginners had already been enrolled at Victory Memorialschool, to start in September, and 50 at Princess Elizabeth school. He ex­pected there would be more yet, and urged parents to register now so plansfor the fall could be made. He said 50 was the maximum that could behandled at Princess Elizabeth, without extra help.Chairman G. B. Henry and Trustee Walter Leaper were appointed dele­gates to the 91st Annual O.EA, Con­ vention at Toronto, March 26-28. Trus­tees Clifton, Ackert and Henry at­ tended the urban school trustees meet­ing at London recently. Mr. Murray noted with regret thatthe school inspector, Tommy Thompson, was ill in hospital. He mentioned that“open house" would be held at Princess Elizabeth school tonight (Thursday). He remarked that some 350 guests registered at the Memorial open houseMonday. It seemed quite successful, he said, and Chairman Henry agreed,suggesting the whole evening and the quality of work displayed "was acredit to the staff and to the pupils." Messrs. Ackert and Clifton sponsoreda resolution that the secretary prepare teachers’ contracts for 1951-52, andthat the teachers' committee advertise to fill any vacancies. When the supply­teacher rate was boosted. Trustees Henry, Ackert and Leapcr commentedthat such teachers were doing the school—and the community—a favorby serving. It was decided to buy 20 chairs, costnot to exceed $100, for Victory Mem­ orial kindergarten. Sixty-cycle power WILL be flowing into Ingersoll by thia fall, Douglas M. Seath, PUC manager announced today.Six of Ingersoll’s biggest industrial power users have de­cided to take advantage of the opportunity of changing overthis fall, instead of 1954 as originally scheduled, Mr. Seathdisclosed, and inventories of equipment are now being pre­ pared. It involves the changing-over of many hundreds ofmotors, and it is expected this will be done either by plant electricians or other local electrical experts. tThe companies involved are William Etone Sons, Ltd., Morrows, Ingersoll Machine and Tool Co., Borden’s, Ingersoll Cheese and Paper Box. •The new high-tension line into Ingersoll along the northside of the Thames has already been surveyed, according toMr. Seath, and poles should be going up shortly. The line iscoming from Thamesford and goes as far as Stones. It willcross the river to connect with the new sub-station just west of Borden’s. , , . ,Mr. Seath disclosed, too, that work on the. new sub-sta­ tion would be getting under way soonHe said that once 60-cycle power was coming into the community, then they would gradually work the whole townover from 25-cycle. He said Ingersoll was particularly fortun­ ate in getting the new power sb early. Industries Asking About Sites Here Ingersoll's Industrial Board has re­ ceived certain enquiries from out oftown concerning possibility of indus­ trial establishment here, CouncillorStanley J. Smith, a member of the board, informed town council Monday ^Councillor Norman Pembleton asked if any interest was being shown inIngersoll from an industrial stand­ point- „ , ,"During our last meeting, revealed Mr. Smith, “there were four or fivecommunications read. One from Ham­ ilton and one from Toronto wantedto know about buildings handy to rail sidings. Gnv man wanted to know about establishing a small industryhere. The C.NJL—and the CP JI, too, I believe — wanted layouts showingpossible sites in the community."Mr. Smith said they knew of one large industry in particular trying to locate in this district “but if theyemploy 1,200 people where would you house them, for example?”He said the Industrial Board was really working hard at promotingIngersoll. “We’re leaving no stone un­ turned — we’re following every lead.The money you voted us will be well worthwhile.”Councillor Fick said the whole suc­ cess of any promotion or industrialdrive depended on town planning. "Faster we get it, the better," hedeclared. “Yes," agreed Mr. Smith, “it hingeson town planning.” Launch Date Book To Aid Programs The Date Book is to be revivedagain, the Recreational Commissionhas decided, and it will be operated at The Ingersoll Tribune, telephone With too many events beingbooked the same night too frequent­ly, to the detriment of all, it wasdecided to re-launch the date book so everyone would be able to knowwell in advance just what was being done by whom.It wil] cost sponsors of the eventsnothing, and it will, in effect, be afree ad for them. When date of an everft is decided,or is up for discussion, telephoneThe Tribune for listing in the datebook, and advice as to the best nightavailable.Once an event is listed in the Date Book it will stay there until ithas been held. Deplores Sewage Going Into Creeks Council (will consider a suggestionfrom the Oxford County Health Unit that residents streets withsewers be riven ufltl the end ofthis year to link up with the sewer.Councillor Eidt said the big com­plaint was that too many were let­ting their sowage empty into thecreeks. Councillor Smithit would work too great a financialhardship on some to have.them gettheir sewers in within the year. BUY YOUR EASTER SEALS King Street west, near the Paper BoxCompany. Mr. McBride had writtenasking for such action."We have good prospects to locatesomething there," said Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith noted that councils in thepast had been "too fond of signing away the people’s rights—or rights ofway" for the immediate dollar, only to find themselves later hemmed in andhaving to pay a lot for money to get themselves free again. Buy Easter Seals Is Westcott’s Plea As Campaign Starts A plea for all to support the cur­rent Easter Seal campaign in aid of, crippled children's work was voicedby it. A. Westcott, chairman of thei crippled children’s committee, at thelast Kiwanis meeting.

One child thrilled to eenng Institute of Canada, whowas guest speaker. Roy Green and Grant Small offic.ated at the induc­tion of Bruce Dickout, the club’s newest member. Birthdays weresung for Sterling Clark and FrankLittell. Introduced by P. M. Dewan and thanked by R. A. Stone, Mr. Vancetold of travelling many thousands of miles during the past yearthroughout the world, and Canada still impressed him the most. “No­where in the world is there a coun­ try with greater potentialities andresources”, he declared. In Ontario, he said, "our sights are aimed toolow—we are allowing Americans and others to do too much for us.We’re going to regret that someday.” He told of visiting Newfoundland, the mines of the north, the lumberindustries and the oil and gas fields of Alberta. He told of the vast irri­gation programs in the west, and in general, the big opportunities in thewest for trained engineers, and for young men to start small industries.•Mr. Vance said the recent bridge collapse in Quebec, though tragic,was somewhat of a joking matter for Duplessis critics. Mr. Duplessishad said saboteurs were responsible,and the rounds of jokes included thesuggestion his saboteur was "’Jac­ques Frost,” that Mr. Duplessis wassuffering “fallen arches”, that he wasplaying a lot of canasta these days —“no bridge.”Mr. Vance was presented by Mr.Stone with a typical Ingersoll gift—a cheese. A puppet climbed up on a box and then there was a clown thatdanced. Was it ever fun! A little man played on the piano.. Then an­other man played on the violin. Gosh, you should have seen himplaying on the violin. Was he evercute. Then both the man with the violin and the man with the piano playedtogether. • Gosh did the one man ever play the piano fast. Then somemen were sitting down at a table. Then they got tired and one fellbackward off his chair. Then they started to fight and they upset thetable. We had a film too, (shown by___________ Jack Hunsberger), and part of the2SSS5! ho spit a l auxil ia r y There were a lot of boys and girlsat the show.

We do not, however, believe that this town, or any other town for that matter, cannot be improved in many ways. No town can stand still. It must either progress or retrogress. - What can we, each one of us, do to help build a better community here? How can we be reason­ ably sure that our town will go ahead in 1951? Too many of us in past years have sat quietly back in our own little corners, content to leave such progress as has been made to the Town Council, the Chamber of Commerce or to other organizations. We have given too little of our thought and effort to spurring on the develop­ ment of the community. Here are a few suggestions which, if each one •f us put them into effect, would ensure some pro­ gress towards a better community this year: 1. Shop in our home town. 2. Be an active member of at least one com­ munity organization. 3. Develop the habit of being on time for meetings and other functions. 4. Keep our homes and business places neat and attractive. 5. Be a booster of our town, not a knocker. 6. Develop in ourselves a progressive attitude. 7. Be friendly to one another and to strangers. 8. Work together for the common good. If all of us in our town decided that this year we would do just a little more than our share in helping build a better community, we might be surprised at the great progress that would be achieved. Can’t Be Too Polite Mr. Stuart Keate, publisher of a Victoria B.C.newspaper, is quoted as saying Canadian news­ papermen are "too polite." We don’t agree—we don't think you-'can be too polite. You can be either polite or rude. There is no half-way medium so far as we are concerned. Newspapermen have to be a little more thick- skinned, if you will, than other people; and have to be more aggressive and persistent And some­ times, perhaps, they are downright brusque to the point of rudeness in their efforts to get the facts. A newspaperman’s business is to get facts. Un­ fortunately, in 99 per cent of the cases, these facts involve someone else’* business. And in many cases the possessor of these facts feels they are, indeed, his business, and his alone, and he wastes no time in telling the reporter so. Newspapermen probably are insulted more times per square inch than members of any other pro­ fession, and in most cases we bear up. But unfor­ tunately, some newspapermen—and particularly those in the movies—feel that someone trying tomind his own business is committing a foul deed so far as the reporter is concerned, and the re­ porter proceeds to ride rough-shod over him. It is probable that Mr. Keate feels Canadian reporters don’t do enough of this sort of thing; they too readily are prepared to respect someone else’s point of view. We don’t agree with Mr. Keate. We would be willing to bet that more good, ex­ clusive stories have come as a result of a news­ paperman being gentlemanly and polite than by being just the opposite. No, you can’t be TOO polite. Heartiest Congratulations The staff and the pupils of Ingersoll Collegiate Institute are to be congratulated upon the success of their “Blue and White Revue.” The packed crowds the two nights the program was put on were obvious indication that the school’s efforts and talents were heartily appreciated. Many were the comments after the showings, and all werehighly laudajtofy—and highly deserved. We would not be at all surprised if the students were asked to put on a return "command" performance. “Nursing” Them Along Reading certain items in the London Free Press these days makes one lift one’s eyebrows. When one buys a new automobile it comes equipped with instructions to be carefully followed during the first few hundred miles of the car’s life to ensure it gives perfect satisfaction for many, many, many more guceeding miles of operations. These instructions include driving for so many miles at, say, 35 miles an hour; then so many more at a slightly increased rate of mileage, until finally, according to instructions, car, engine and all other parts are well broken in, and the sky’s the limit ' But what are we reading now—drivers in new car convoys are being hauled in for doing 80 miles an hour or more in these brand new cars they are taking to market That 35mph seems a bit of a waste of effort, doesn’t it What Others S a y: Perish The Thought The cry has been raised in some quarters that by swinging more and more to U.S. military equipment we Canadians are swinging away from our mother country, England, No cry—no fear—could be more ridiculous. One might say that because we are riding in U.S. cars instead of English cars, the same alien­ ation of affections is being developed. Or because we use more American products generally than we do English products. It is simply that by gearing ourselves to Amer­ ican systems and American equipment we are being practical and logical. A British tank is of little value to us if the spare parts are being made November With A Future As the snow melts, the history of Winter is revealed. In the deep woods, old tracks which have been covered by snows show up again as hard little mounds that resist the strengthening sunlight. Mainly the tracks are the stories of small creatures’ comings and goings, but here a buck fled with wolves pursuing. That must have been a long time back, and the snow has lain smoothly over the scene, disclosed now like an archaeolo­gist’s find. Far off in the towns the processes of Spring are less dramatic, but the careful observer may find matters of interest even there. Like a beach-com­ ber patrolling a retreating tide he may discover that toy shovel which was lost before the big blizzard. In town or wilderness, time runs backward as the snow melts off the North part of the world. Layer by layer the weeks reverse themselves through February and January and Christmas. A day comes (when earth is peeled down to its pelt We are returned to bare, no-coloured November. Looking back over the Winter we remember that there was a feeling about November, as though it were waiting for something bad to happen. This November that shows up from under the last trickle of snow is waiting for somethin good. The first bit of Spring might easily be mistaken for November, but it is a November with a future. — (The Printed Word.) SALFORD Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Wilson spentthe week-end with relatives inSarnia.

EVERYONE SHOPS AT WHITE’S OF EXTRA COST rSPONGE Fhase o f A while back, we wrote on thesubject of forming sportsmen’s’clubs. This sort of undertaking willbenefit any group of sportsmen whomake the necessary moves to accom­plish it. For one thing, it can provideendless opportunities for talkingover old experiences and makingplans for the improvement of hunt­ing and fishing in your own locality.So often it happens that evenkeenly-interested sportsmen have atendency to leave it all up to the“government" This is, of course,impossible, and results in little beingdone towards improving their per­sonal recreation. You have to pitchin and help yourself. After all, itisn’t fair to expect someone else toshoulder responsibility if you don’tprovide co-operation and advice.You know your local problems bet­ter than all th government agencies.At least you should!During recent years, many suchclubs have been formed. In all prob­ability there will be many more. Inevery case, when membership isbeing solicited, those in charge arc Like most other trout fishermen,the other week-end we spent tyingflies for next spring. One of thepatterns we worked on was a PolarBear streamer, which we’ve found isvery good early in the season. Wegot to thinking about polar bearsand found ourselves still amazed atsome of the pecularities of this re­markable animal. It’s generally ac­cepted now as being Canada's lar­gest bear, the record being some­thing over 1,600 pounds. And that'sa lot of bear! You probably know that the cubs weigh only two poundsat birth, (less than a new-born por­ cupine), yet increase their weightto almost three-quarters of a ton by maturity. It takes a whale of a lotof food to build that gigantic ani­mal. and most of it is supplied byseals and some Arctic fish. The polarbear, has a particularly distinctivefeature in that the soles of his feetare covered with hair. This helpshim to get about on the ice withoutslipping! In all probability it also Respect For Law Should Be Taught Y’s Men Informed “Y” Monday evening with PresidentThe Y’s Men’s Club met at thsPete Clement conducting the bus­iness. Guests included Dave Ritchieand Guy Jones. The sing song iwasled by Rom Hurst, assistged by WinCooper at the piano.The speaker was A. B. Siskind,London lawyer, who spoke on“Brotherhood Week.** and "Juven­ile Delinquency”. Fathers of grow­ing boys have a deep responsibility,he said. Too often the tendency isto say, "Leave these problems to thesocial agencies." Each child is asmuch our responsibility is our own,"he asserted. Juvenile delinquency starts athome. Jf a child is tended towardsdelinquency, it is because he hasmissed something at home. Thefirst thing that may be missing islove. When his dream is shattered,by violence or disagreements, heloses love and respect for bis home.It is our obligation to teach ourchildren the Jove and respect thatparents have for each other. Respectfor law and order must be instilled,so he in turn will respect the rightoof others. “Too many homes," Mr. Siskindsaid, "have used the policemen as abogey man. As he grows older hewill not respect but fear the lawand it becomes a dare to him. Thereis no feeling of security in the mindof the child for the law. Let thechild meet the policeman and learnthat he is the protector of ourproperty and his duty is to help.” Education, he asserted, is thegreatest means of preventing juv­enile delinquency. There appears tobe less "palling" between father and son. "We do not take time and pa­tience to be a boy again with them,”he said. “Are we being fair to theseboys? They seek our companionship.If we do our part the rate of de­linquency will fall into a decline.” Y'sman ‘Nifty* Naftolin intro­duced the speaker, and Don Wilsonexpressed the appreciation of all. Harold Uren spoke on the needfor new members for the Girls’ and ' Boys’ Band and outlined a member­ship drive plan. Instruments areavailable on a trial or rental basis.

Newspapermen, sportcasters, promoters, hockey and football players were crowded into one jovial mass—honoringFoster Hewitt. ’Mr. Hockey’ shook hands and talked with Major ConnSmythe, Joe Primeau, Ted Reeve, Happy Day, Joe Perlove, Bob Hesketb,Dave Price, Jim Coleman, Frank Tunney, Deacon Allen, Bob McGsll,Dr. Harry Griffiths and others too numerous to mention.

Repairing on all farm machinery’, PHONE - 286W Consult Forester On Tree Problems Many landowners have seen theimportance of growing trees as acash crop on their farms. For thepast thirty years wise farmers havebeen planting the waste areas on their farms with a growing crop oftrees. But we must not forget all aboutthe trees that have been planted. Certainly for the first year theymust be left alone to grow tall and compete with each other for sun­light. This is why we plant them close together so they will be con­stantly trying to reach up abovetheir neighbours for the li^ht. This competition leads to rapid height growth .which we desire for sometime. There is a time, however, whenthis plantation will slow down ingrowth or stagnate. This is the time we must step in and allow the trees to continue the best growth poss­ible. In a normally stocked planta­tion with trees spaced 6 or 7 feet apart this slowing down of growthbegins at about 20 years of age. This may not be noticed at a pass­ing glance, but if one were to cut a tree down he would see that theannual rings, which are added to the tree each year, are getting nar­rower and narrower. In other words less wood is being added to the tree—growth is slowing down. Perhaps you are not sure how old yourplantation is. If the trees are 15 to 25 feet tall you may assume thatthey need attention now or in thenear future. The remedy for this is thinning. That is removing some of the treesso that others will have more space to grow. This thinning can be donein different ways depending on what kinds of trees are planted andhow the nautral survival has been. It is not recommended that morethan 1-3 or less than 1-5 of the plan­ tation be removed at this first thin­ning. The local Zone Forester in yourarea should be consulted beforethinning is undertaken. ln most cases he will mark at least part of your plantation to show you the rec­ommended procedure. Your Agricul­ tural Representative can put youin touch with your Zone Forester. 30th WEDDING DATE NOTED BY THORNTONS To mark their thirtieth wedding anniversary, Mr. and Mrs. MelvinThornton, Canterbury street, enter­ tained a family party.

Asthe writer of a recent editorial points out, it is natural in disturbedtimes to hark back to other times and find them serene and untroub­led, and rather to envy the menwho lived in them. But were they in reality happierand less troubled? Perhaps in some degree, and for some they were;for those financially secure and of an age not to be expected to fightin any current war. But even of these,few of them but must have hadtheir own worries and so have failedto reach the happiness that we, in restrospect, think was theirs. Cer­tainly World Wars were unknown to them, and threats of one thatwould use weapons of such dead­liness that civilisation might be wiped out, must then have beenundreamed of. But there were wars. And in these wars, men badly in­jured had little chance to escape in­ fection and summary death.Until Florence Nightingale en­ tered the arena and fought desper­ately and untiringly against the apathy of an officialdom that allow­ed the squalor, the filth and general haphazard methods of caring for thewounded, the injured man took his chances for recovery without thebenefit of intelligent care. In this, at least, we are improved. What­ever hell the present day fighting­man must go through, and it is still hell as Sherman knew, he is sure of being given all the help thatmodern science has developed. Also if he comes through a .war incapa­citated he is looked after and everything done to ameliorate the condi- dition.Artificial limbs are a poor substi­ tute for the originals nature gave WOMEN’S GUILD PLAN EASTER TEA Mrs. F.

ARMSTRONG, DIES Bom in Ingersoll, 73 years ago. Walter G. Armstrong, of 150 Wilsonavenue, died last week at his1 home in London. He went to London a«a child and except for a brief resi­ dence in Hamilton lived there allhis life. He was a broom maker, employed for many years by JohnR. Gurd, broom manufacturer. He worked for the last 10 years ati Somerville Limited. I Mr. Armstrong was a member ofSt. George’s Anglican Church. His widow, formerly- Kate Mac­Donald, survives, with three sons, Vern and Raymond of London, andClair, of Hagersville. Rev. John Doidge of St. George'sAnglican Church, officiated at the service, burial being made in MountPleasant Cemetery. him, but they are better far thanthe empty trouser leg or sleeve that the old days knew. The patch overthe empty eye socket was much les* sightly than the artificial eyethat can now replace a lost one, even if it fails to restore the sight.The arts and crafts taught to the war blinded are a splendid substi­tute for the beggar’s cup that was all he could hope for in the goodold days. ___ War can never be anything but brutal, the forlorn result if man'sincapacity to set himself and his world in order, but we now do ourutmost to make amends to the poorvictims of our stupidity. In those days, too, to which we look back with nostalgic longing, asdays of peace and quiet and nor­mal growth, there was a vast maj­ ority that never knew peace or nor­mal growth. Prosperity there was, but also dire want and distress,and never adequate means of re­ lieving" either. Children ran bare­foot in winter's cold, shivered in filthy rags, and seldom knew thecomfort of a full stomach. Theystarved in unheated hovels, and worked for a pittance in ill-lightedfactories. Good old days. Yes, for the wealthy with their fine homes,well-staffed with humble servants, but what was good about those daysfor the underfed and undeveloped thousands who rotted in the slums?At least if our times are insecure and the threat of demonic bombsmakes for neroses and a devil-may- care attitude towards life, they aretimes when no one is allowed to starve, when the maimed and blindand the incalables are given careand attention, and when the helplesschild is everybody’s business. We may not have peace of mind.We may be stupid with regard to our use or misuse of the miraclesthat science has discovered, but wehave developed a keener sense of responsibility to one another, and,given time, we may yet discover that all the wonders that have beenrevealed in a material world can be used to benefit that (world, and not,ns we at present seem destined to demonstrate, to destroy it. Material thing alone have never given entire satisfaction. Perhapsother generations of men had a keener sense of spiritual values, andso achieved, with less physical com­ fort, a greater sense of security andsanity than is apparent from thisdistance. Perhaps, too, with a more highly developed spiritual naturewe would achieve that peace of mind, that would eventually lead toa world peace. At least the times challenge us. We needs must hurryto accept the challenge and avertcatastrophe. if O ird Gm o ih m o ' e?®e5 Basra fyllafyk Edn/ahd) SPECIFIC COMFORT Being specific about comfort let's consider the suit coat. Your coat ' should be roomy enough to be worn at your desk and still feel comfortable. You should be able to stretch yout arms fully forward and not have the shoulders or blades bind. Suit coats no longer fit like a sausage skin but have ample extra fullness behind shoulders at the blades. When the tailor tells you that the goods should be there and "she" says its looks sloppy — pay attention to the fitter because he knows that fullness gives you comfort. Check the arm scye for height (that's the armhole in the sleeve). It should be high under your arm for most comfort. ICopnltfl.

W. W. WILF ORD Ingersoll B9H*T 19T THl WEEKLY DEVOTIONS LIFE’S GREATEST EXPERIENCE By REV. G W. MURDOCH Miaiater of St. Paul’* Preabytoriai The famous Tolstoi had every­thing that this world could give. Hewas a gifted writer, honored, famous,rich. He received the adulation ofhi* day and generation, yet he fpundno satisfaction in life. He triedevery sin known to man and couldfind no peace. Theq. he began toassociate wtih peasants. Thoughthey ate black bread, they had holdof a truth which gave them innerjoy. He asked their secret and they told him. One day in the forestTolstoi found God. “[In that mo­ ment”, he reported, “delightful sen­sations of life ran all through mybody and filled my mind with sun­light and I had peace.” Throughoutthe rest of his life, Tolstoi's philos­ophy was, "to know God is,to live."There is our key to life's greatestexperience. Someimes it is called’spiritual awakening." Somethinghappens deep within you and there­after you are filled with light andwarmth and beauty. This may hap­pen quickly and dramatically.

Ineither case, you will have that feel­ing described in the word*, “Werenot bur heart* strangely warmed <within us.” This is the greatest ex- <parienc* possible to a human being, ,Among the first recorded words |of Jesus in the Gospel according to IMark, chapter one, verse 15, you |find sentence: “Repent ye, and be- ilieve 'the Gospel." Now what do we imean by the word “repent"? The istandard meaning j* to be sorry for |your sins, turn away from them, < That is still sound thinking: whateverybody had better do if he want* ito be happy.A Sunday School teacher asked i her class to define "repentance." IOne lad said, "It is sorrow for oursins.*" A girl in the class added, that “it is being sorry enough toquit.’’ A* long as a person is satisfiedwith himself—until he sees his fail­ures, neglects and sins and repents, 1 there isn’t much chance for im- iprovement, so all progress, growthin character, development in the .Christian life, is dependent uponrependtacne. It is also the highestpatriotism. In second Chronicles,7:14, God says, “If my people' which are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray, andseek my face, and turn from their' wicked ways; then I will hear from heaven, and (will forgive their sin,■ and will heal their land."I like Dr. Temple’s explanation ofJesus’ words,“Repent ye, and be­lieve the Gospel.v He says it means"Change your way of looking at lifeand believe in the good news.” Isn’tthat marvellous? The meaning ofthe word “gospel" is “good news.’’You do not need to be defeated;you do not need to be unhappy,filled with fear. We do not have to :have war after war. God is here, andlife can be wondrously good.You can have all this by changingyour way of looking at life, and,with all your heart, start believingin the good news. Give up every­thing in your life that you know inyour heart to be wrong. You cannotcompromise if you want full spirit­ual power. Eliminate your heart for­ever, all hatred, resentment, jeal­ousy and grudges. You must sincere­ly forgive everyone against whomyou hold resentment. Realize thatin the last analysis you are changed not by any act you perform, butthrough faith in Christ who alonecan make you a new person. Asthe Scripture puts it, “if any man bein Christ, he is a new creature, oldthings are passed away, all thingsare become new."There are people reading thismessage who once were utterly mis­erable, tied and tangled up. And Ican see them now, as I write, withlight on their faces. What has hap­pened to them? They repented:they did not want to be the way.they had been anymore. Theystarted believing in the good news.They took this truth to themselves,hook, line and sinker. They castaside their doubts and started be­lieving, and in doing so, life became,• good. They found this, life’s greatestexperience.What they found, you and I canfind: power and victory over alldifficult, hampering circumstancesand sins of this life. It is a pitythat people let themselves be de­feated. They go around with the un­happy sense that they do not be­long, that there is no place forthem. Get to thinking about life ina different way, and believe in thegood news. It will work: it will floodyour soul with happiness.PRAYER: Our Heavenly Father,let life’s greatest experience enter into the hearts and minds of everyindividual ajid change every life, driving out all error, all the faults,and all the maladies of the soul —filling each one (with life andlaughter, all of which comes from Thee. And we thank Thee for thisin the name of Je»us Christ ourLord. Amen. “Happy Journey” Is The Next Play Forest Telfer, prominent member 1 of the Woodstock Little Theatre, 1 addressed the meeting of the Inger­soll group on Monday evening inthe library basement He gave excel- 'lent advke on direction, mentioningparticularly the value of impressiveentrances and exits, and of effect­ive arrangement of players.
