A farm pond is being built onCharlie Swartz* farm by the engineering department of O.A.C. A fly
ing field is being established bothto allow people aerial scenic tours,and also to spot traffic jams from (the air and decide which way tostraighten them out. Incidentally, so
that between Ingersoll and Wood-stock it will not be one mad traffic ■
jam, east-bound traffic is going to !be diverted at Ingersoll, out High- I
way 19 to the Second Concession, •Meek’s Corners; westbound traffic
will be diverted out of Woodstock ,along the Siweaburg road.
Billetting of the thousands will be
done mostly in the area it is hoped. .Hotel accommodation has been i
booked for months, even years.Private homes are being listed now, .
and Sam Shelton is the local billetting head.A big prize-presehtation dinnerwill be the climax of the plowingmatch program. Some 1500 are expected to attend including some ofthe biggest political and agricultural
and industrial names in Canada.The Junior Farmers' Choir and
Margaret 'Lewis, attractive accordionist, will be the feature entertainers and one of Canada’s leading
political figures is expected to be theguest speaker.
The trophies and many valuableprizes to be won at the match will
be on display at P. T. Walker’s herefrom Sept. 22-29. They are worth
thousands.Mr. Robinson pointed out it is 30years since the famed event was lastheld in Oxford. That time it washeld on the Ontario Hospital Farm.John Hargreaves, south of Beach-ville, midway between Woodstock
and Jngersoll, is the host this time,though all residents of Oxford un
officially will be hosts.
The International Plowing Match
which has never in the past shownany indication of getting away fromthe straight furrow, is going all out
for contours and conservationmethods at this year’s match, accor
ding to the Globe and Mail.
. Closest the international ever
came to a furrow with a twist in thepast (was a dejponstration of contour plowing by Ontario Agricul
tural College students a couple ofyears ago. This year the thousands
of farmers who visit the match willse*? local, provincial and international contour plowing competition
ns well as further conservation demonstrations, including construction
of a farm pond.
In the past officials of the international have steered clear of contour work on the grounds that itwould require too much technical
advice in plotting contours. However, F. A. Lashley the new secre-
■tary manager, has announced thatthis year there will be contour

When one of Fred Hutcheson’s sows died a day aftergiving birth to 11 youngsters, Fred faced the problem of
what to do with the 11 very hungry little gaffers. He andDr. W. J. Walker of Ingersoll, got together and came up
with the very practical substitute shown above. They builta rack and put in it 11 pop bottles fitted with baby nipples
loaned by Mrs. Walker. The piglets have found the rack amost suitable substitute, though not quite so cozy to snuggle
up against. Alice Crellin, sister of Photographer HaroldCrellin, is holding one of the bottles for a very eager porker.
Hutcheson’s farm is on R. R. 3, Ingersoll.
Will Not Annex
Allen Site, Town
Tells School Board
Without a word of comment, towncouncil Tuesday night decided not to
annex the Allen site, chosen for thenew collegiate, cr to service it.
The Allen property, lying just outside town at the north end of Thames
Street, was selected by the collegiateboard, and then approved by Queen’sPark. Council’s refusal to annex it
means the collegiate board must review the question of site in the light
of these new conditions.The resolution, moved by Council
lor Smith on behalf of Councillor H.W. Fide, chairman of the publicbuildings and grounds committee,
was the result of the council meetingwith the collegiate board Thursdaynight.It read: "That the Corporation of
the town of Ingersoll is not at presentinterested in annexing that property
which is known as the Allen site asa location for a high school."
The joint meeting Thursday followed a letter from J. J. McLeod,secretary of the collegiate board,which stated that the Allen site hadbeen selected and asking that thetown supply “the usual services" to
the property. The town’s okay wasneeded immediately, he said, and ajoint meeting might seem advisable.It wus held.A letter from M. B. Sanderson, of
the Ontario Municipal Board, saidthe board had given tentative ap
proval to spending $750,000 on thenew school, so that the board mightprepare final plans and specifica
tions for submission to the department of education, in order to deter
mine if the school could be built andequiped for that amount But the
municipal board, he stressed, had notyet given approval for work to start

Let Queen’s Park Advise
When town council decided Tuesday night it
did not want to annex the Allen property for the
new high school, the site problem was tossed
right back into the collective laps of the colleg
iate board.
Those gentlemen will naw have to reconsider
the matter of sites and find something more suit
able to the town fathers, who will be called upon
to pay the shot so far a* servicing the site is con
cerned.
The Mason site is favored by several members
of the collegiate board, but others have suggested
they would rather withdraw from the high school
area than have the school on the Mason site. Split
ting up of the arei, of course, would mean the
end of a new collegiate, and a new collegiate is
desperately needed. It would be nothing less
than criminal to have the new school washed out
because of bickering over the site, but still the
site must be the one the most practical for the
moat people.
Naturally, the country representatives would
like to see the collegiate in the country. Equally
as naturally, the town representatives would like
to see it within the town. But we reiterate, such
wishes and aspirations should not be permitted to
obscure sound consideration of what is the BEST
site.
This whole problem, which could develop into
stalemate and put the collegiate off until costa
had jumped again, would never have arisen had
the provincial government done as requested by
the collegiate board, and come down, inspected the
area and impartially picked out what they felt was
the BEST site. It could have been the Allen
property or the Mason section, or the Fergusson
i«ite, or the fairgrounds, but whichever it was, it
would have been selected impartially and object
ively by people with long experience in these
matters.
Government, of course, shies away from inter
ference in local matters of this kind, wanting no
criticism on the grounds they were giving with
one hand, but controlling the use with the other.
But in this case. Queen’s Park ws invited to come
in and make a recommendation, which is different,
and which .would undoubtedly had the school well
on its way now.
However such wag not done; the town has indi
cated it does not want to annex any more prop
erty, and it is up to the school board to recon
sider under the new conditions, and bring in an
other recommendation.
Possibly it would not be too late now, with the
All W ork-No Pay
Frankly, w* feel it* just about time that
Ottawa started contributing tw the payroll of our
staff, particularly the office end of It.
As ■ matter of fact, the amount of work done
for the government, and the time involved, maket
us feel that we’re already on the government's
payroll; it’s simply someone has merely forgotten
to send us the weekly cheque.
Many, many hours are -i-pent on behalf of the
government each month, and not only do we not
get paid for it, ft invariably comes out that <we
have to pay them more.
There’s the matter of sales tax, for example.
Nearly every bit of printing done requires sales
tax. We figure it out, record it, take the dirty
looks as a result of someone being asked to pay
it, and use up our cheques and our stamps, and
letterhead, to send the money in to Ottawa And
to crown it all, we have to pay for a license to act
as Ottawa’s collecting agency.
Then there’s the matter of unemployment in
surance, and the hour* of figuring and stamp
licking and what-not that goes into that.'* No
thank*, mind you, or a slight cut for your effort*.
Merely a blast if the thing isn’t done correctly.
And, of course there’* income tax, and innumer
able reports required now and then.
Our staff is probably doing all this because the
paid civil servant* are now going on a 35-hour
week, or is it 30? We’d like that, too—-before we
qualify for that new pension that begins for every
one at 70—if you make it

Red and the Sparrow
Two thing* happened Monday which registered
particularly in our mind; we read the news of
Red Hill's death, and we killed a baby sparrow.
The latter upset us the most.
Learning of Hill's death, all we could think was
how stupid it was. He wanted to go over the
Falls, and he did. And he’s dead. He probably
knew the chances were all against him. And
what has he accomplished? Nothing. What would
he have accomplished had he lived? Nothing.
This was no gallant challenge; an effort that
required courage or skill. It was not like, say,
seeking to climb the highest mountain. Such an .
undertaking DOES require courage, skill, persev
erance nnd planning. Such undertakings do result
in death, sometimes. Often they result in failure,
but the climber lives to try again.
But going over the highest falls is nothing.
Anyone can do it. Just jump in and hang on. But
whether you live or die is something entirely be
yond you. It is like flipping a coin; you might live
or you might die. Hill died and he will be re
membered, sure; as the man who made the fool
hardy f'attempt to go over the falls, and lost.
Stupidl ■'
The death of the ftparrow', however, to us, was
real tragedy, and we have not been able to forgetit
As we drove along, a group of sparrows flew
up out of our way—all but one. This poor little
chap, too young to fly, just »tood there, his beak
open, crying to his family. He didn’t know what
was coming. <We couldn’t stop in time, but we did
pass over him, and hoped as we looked back we
would still see him standing there, a bit ruffled,
still calling for mother.
But he wasn’t—he was flat on his back, still.
Obviously, a8 the car went by, he had sought to
flee on his baby wings, but had struck the car anddied.
As we went back and picked him up, tho par
ents fluttered frantically about, only a few feet
away, anxious about their little baby. But he was
gone, and the sight of that little thing standing
there in the middle of the road, waiting to be
fed, only to be struck dead, .will stay with us
longer than the lengthy yarns on how Red Hill
tossed his life away.

Ingersoll’s Own Civil W ar
Rampant in the Late 1800’s
The battle between the North and
the South to the average Canadian
meant the Civil War of 1861-1865,but to the denisen* of Ch**s*town,
it meant the north and south side ofthe Thames street bridge. During
the eighties, and up to the turn ofthe present century, club and brick
bat warfare was rampant among thesoot-suiters of the day. Plug-uglieswould gather nightly on both sidesof the bridge and defy each otherto traverse the 90 foot span.
With all of our historical re marchof early Ingersoll, we have never
yet received a clue as to what originally engendered the high feeling
which existed at the time. Almost♦wo decades ago we interviewed the
old-timers and they seemed moreamused when the subject was
broached rather than give one a
hint as to the actual cause. The lateNei] McFee claimed that the high
feeling was caused by derision andidle ibantei* among factions that
formed into gangs, during lunchhours, at the Morrow Co. and the
old Pork Factory. During mealtimes the workmen would good nat-
uredly banter with the north sidesects and the southsiden? until some
one would cast a slur against theirown particular locality and a fist
fight settled the matter. Unkind cut
ting remarks would be hurled anda challenge would be offered to
cross either the Wonham or Thamesstreet bridges that night
This high feeling mostly hurt the
innocent but the village swainssuffered most! At the height of a :
brickbat battle, a young bank clerk ;

July 14, when Ariel Doreen, young-'honeymoon by car to Vancouver
•at daughter of Mr. and Mr*. Lyle
Roa, of Carstairs, Alberta, becameth* bride of John Henry McBeath,
•on of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas McBeath, of Ingersoll, Ontario. Rev.
Kirk performed the ceremony amidsta profusion of pink and white
spring flower*.
The bride, given In marriage byher father, wore a long full-skirted
gown of white nylon and Chantillylace, which featured a Queen Anne
neckline on the fitted bodice. Herfingertip veil was held in place by
a Dutch cap and she carried a bouquet of Sweetheart rose*. Her only
ornament was a pendant, a gift ofthe groom.
The flower girls (were nieces of
the bride. Nadene and Gayle McCoy, who wore full length dresses
of pink taffeta and carried miniaturebouquets of pink carnations and
rosebuds. Mrs. Melbourne McCoy,sister of the bride, matron of hon
our, wore a gown of blue taffetaand carried a bouquet of pink car
nations.
The bridegroom was attended by
Edward Broomfield. The usherswere Mr. C. Pearson and Mr. M.
McCoy.
During the signing of the regis
ter, Miss Donna Beckner sang
"Through the Years,’’ accompaniedby Miss Mary McCardell.
For the occasion the bride’smother chose a pink frock with navyaccessories.
A reception for 60 guests was
held in the church hall. The bride's
to her horn* on Victoria str«*t, andI when crossing the bridge th* battie
k slopped and the southerner* de
manded to know from the bank
clerk if he couldn't find * girl on his! own side of the river! Likewise,
, the northerners cornered the girl,> when she had crossed the bridge,
and popped the same question! The
t couple ignored the clique* and pro-
, ceeded on their way, but when theyoung clerk was returning home he
. was accosted by one of the northeiders and he was threatened with
a boating-up if he did not desist incourting a northern gal. The clerk
soothed them down and invited theleader of the gang over to McCarty's
hotel and bought him a keg of beer
and told him to divide it with hispals. The leader patted the clerk on
the back and called him a “regular sport” and informed him that
he could come over the river atany time with anybody, moreover,
if the southside squirts made anyremonstrance they would see that
he was accorded full protection.The clerk then crossed the river and
contacted the leader of the rivalgang and settled for a bottle of gin
at the "Red Onion” hotel.
The late John “Pointer"’ MacMillan informed us that when he
was a lad a fight broke out in Noxon's plant when an argument com
menced over the relative merits of
the north and south side of Ingersoll. At that time, 1886, the Mor
row company occupied a smallplace beside a lumber company and
they were surrounded by tree
stumps and the soubriquet “stumptown” was given to that area. This
appellation was accepted by thosparsely inhabited district as being
very appropriate, but what startedthe fight at Noxon’s was caused by
a southsider stating that the onlything that the north side could
boast about was that they had “a
nigger church” and two cemeteries IOne of our oldest citizens, Mr.
John Pickard, now in his 87th year,told us that the only time that the
rival gangs could agree would bethe time when they joined, in battle
array, at th4 east end of Charlesstreet, to inspect all rigs and bug
gies coming from Woodstock, in thehope that they would catch a
“courting chap", from Woodstockenroute to an Ingersoll girl’s home.
Naturally, one wonders to-day, ,
why didn’t the law step in. Accordingto Mr. MacMillan, they did . . . after
the fracas was over. Ingersoll only (had one night constable on duty
and he, invariably, was missing whenthe bats and bottles were flyiijg. In
the early 80’s, his duties included
inspecting doors, lighting the gaslamps in the business district, im- ;
pounding all stray hogs, sheep andstray dogs, seeing that the bars ofthe 29 taverns and dram shops
were tightly closed from midnightto 4 a.m. and also to brush-broom
the gutters to keep him awake.Naturally, when wanted and when
found, he gave some trumped-up
excuse that he was busy elsewhere!After the “Battle of the Bridge” was
over, he would journey down Thamesstreet with his broom and wheel
barrow and gather up an odd assortment of bottles, bricks, stones, iron
slag, and occasionally a couple ofdefunct cats ... all valuable souv
enirs of Ingersoll strife!
Fortunately, at the turn of the
•••entury, this feeling began to die
down. The rival cliques became more
tractable and they would journey
together, as brothers-in-arms,

“It Was Wonderful”
By John Thompson
After departing from quaint oldSanta Fe we entered the mountains
again and for many miles travelledalong the top of one of the ranges.
The view was wonderful and we feltas if we were on top of the world, and
we nearly were. Then we descendedinto a beautiful valley which seemed
to be enchanted. The roads weredirt, the houses were small and the
people were very happy. The valley
was very fertile and there was plenty
of hunting in the snow-capped mountains which surrounded the valley.
From this valley the road turnedeastward through a mountain pass.
Once in the pass it became very coldan<j ® violent dust storm arose, but
soon settled down and we continueddown onto the plains. We then turn
ed north and followed the mountains
at a distance of about 60 miles. They
were as plain as if we were only sixmiles from them—a truly spectacularview.
Soon we came to Denver, Coloradowhere we did some shopping, but
mostly window shopping. That night
we slept in the city dump there. We
all thought that Denver was one ofthe cleanest and most beautiful cities

George Aspinal Stockwell has to®favourite Argonaut teams which hfl
elevates above all others. First, hechooses the great 1933 squad withTommy Burns, Teddy Morris, Ab
Box and the rest and then proudlyadds the 1950 Grey Cup champions.Stockwell likes to point out a sur-'prising coincidence about these twoteams in that they both defeated
Winnipeg for the Dominion Championship by a score of 13 to nothing.
AJcrd about the greatest American and Canadian Argo players
to go through his hands, George
picked twq of the 1950 Americansas the best, respectively, on defenseand offense ... Buckets Hindi andUly Curtis. And, of the dozens of
great Canadian players, Stockwell
mentioned two as the outstandingexponents of the game... Art Westand Teddy Morris.
“That Morris was a terrific team
player,” said Stockwell. “He never
weighed more than 160 pounds atany time, but if he could find evena twelve-inch hole in the enemyline he'd be through like a miniature battering ram. And, fa all
the games Ted Morris played he
never once bothered to come to myrubbing table although sometimes,after a game, he was so shaken uphe could hardly find his streetclothes in the dressing roomf*

Since 1905 the Ontario Depart
ment of Lands and Forests has beenproviding nursery stock for wind
breaks, shelterbelts, erosion control,water conservation, and restocking
woodlots. Land which is too steepfor the production of other agricul
tural crops will grow trees. Treesare not provided for ornamental
planting.Under the plan set up in 1949,landowners are asked to submit their
requests for trees on the standard application form, not later than August
loth for ■ planting ’ the followingspring. Application forms may be
secured from the office of the local
Zone Forester, the county Agricultural Representative, or from the
Parliament Buildings, Toronto.To ensure that the species selected
will grow under the local soil, lightand drainage conditions and will ■'ac
complish the purpose in mind, the De-parnient now provides an inspection
service through the Zone Foresters.These men are school of forestry
graduates and by careful planning
with their help costly and discouraging errors may be avoided.
The purpose of having the applications submitted before August 15th
is to permit time to carry out the inspections before a blanket of snow
conceals the nature of the plantingsite. It is hoped that the supply of
trees may thus bo distributed in asfair an<| efficient manner as possible.
A planned tree planting programwill enhance the value of many farm
properties and bring back into production many acres which now He
idle. The only expense involved isthe transportation charges to your
nearest railway station, the labour inplanting, and the protection of your
plantation from grazing.Reforestation is the plan for tomorrow that starts to-day.
