Fleet, AlfSchaefer, Meter Constable John Crosswell, and the works department.To date all have signed for the pro­gram, with th exception of the worksdepartment.The town contributes 50 per centof the payments.Councillor Pembleton, recalling a note from the works department,signed by Frank Cotterell, sayingthey were not interested in the pro­ gram at the moment, said he thoughtthe board felt something was beingthrust on them, whereas the schemewas planned possible more to helpthem than anyone else. The way it isnow set up, he said, works memberscould tak it or leave it. Defer AppointmentCouncil left for the new, incomingcouncil the job of making the town’s appointment to the collegiate instituteboard. R. J.

Mr. Smith suggested four orfive horses. If the horse could do itin the gay nineties, he added, it coulddo the job now. Councillor Pembleton suggested awarning advertisement from the po­lice might help. Councillor Eidt re­called that a notice in The Tribunelast year, urging townspeople to co­ operate, had worked wonders. Mr.Winlaw quoted the by-law, and said ithad been the same since 1856.

Mr. Smith said lots of thepeople on Thames north were too eld­ erly to do the job,, but Councillor Eidtsuggested three out of four could af­ford to have someone do it.Council passed a motion of appre­ciation to Oxford County Council for financing Ingersoll’s share in the newregistry building.

W- Waters, Jewellers, made zoine enquiries about watches,and walked out. No one thoughtmuch about him particularly—thatis, until Tuesday morning.On Tuesday morning, Gordon Waters walked in the front door tofind that two of his showcases—those containing watches and rings, had been virtually looted clean. Onecontained two rings, and the mostvaluable locket he had in the place, and the other—nothing. Severalother items, such as engravedtable-napkin rings, had disappeared too.It was then that the "stranger”was recalled, and noW local police,headed by Corp. John McGetrick,have a good description of a sus­ pect, and Constable Dennis Alsop,provincial police finger print expert,has sampled almost every spot in the store for tell-tale prints.Mr. Waters, who is beginning to wonder what the thugs have againsthim, since this is the third time inthree years, can’t even guess at thevalue of what has been stolen, butcertainly it is in the. thousands.There were several dozen watches, and At LEAST 150 rings. Luckily,the very best diamonds and watcheswere in the safe, which was obvi­ ously not touched.As usual, they got in the backdoor. Police are sure it was a gang, because one or two men could nothave done the job on the door.Three bolts and two steel bars heldthe door, so the thugs moved putthe door frame, bolts, bars and all, and then jimmied open another doorleading into the store. And yet noone heard a sound, Gordon Waters says he was at thestore until shortly after midnight.Constable Orval Hurns reports CURDS and WHEY By Irma Hutt You can relax, kids—Santa isreally coming, reindeer and all, De­cember 24-25.

They have ceased to have meaning,except to remind us of our ancient heritage. Theyare not cast out because they have no functional or monetary value. They add to the variety of life; create interest where it might otherwise be lack­ ing. To discard the Lord Mayor’s Show, or the searching of the cellars of the House of Com­ mons on Guy Fawkes Day, or the many other odd and charming ceremonies, would be to rob England of evidences of continuity, of interest in the old ways. We are what we are because of what has gone on before. Why try to erase the evidence? It makes for dullness and the acceptance of dull­ ness in a world that needs what little joy it can legitimately get To take away the proud title of “Dominion” and the glamorous “Royal” isn’t going to make Canada either more or less great or free, but it is robbing it of a little embellishment, some­ thing that never hurt either a man or a country. — EVELINE A.

Lee Ken Moore Cecil Smith * Winnie Webb Stevie Lee, (still part time) Lost “Dominion” It is strange and often puzzling to find the rea­ son for different interpretations different people place on the same word. This word “Dominion”, for instance. .How can it be debased ti> mean “rob­bed of authority”? Surely in all our precious lexicon of words no prouder one exists. It is a vast, expansive word, one full of authority and pride of possession. Must not the Fathers of Con­ federation have thought of it so? Must they not in their mind's eye have envisioned a Canada of the future, rich in her own right, relying solely on her own people, mistress of her own possess­ ions? Dominion of Canada! No inferior, little col­ onial possession is expressed in that phrase. And yet we are to drop it, as though in the words was the admission of our inferior status. It is the attitude of adolescence; of the youth, neither child or man, who is jealous of the man­ hood he has not yet fully achieved. He is irked by the memory of his childhood restrictions, eager to be recognized as the man he is not. So with Canadians*Who fear the word "dominion.” Linked as it has been in the past with colonial status, they cannot rid themselves of the feeling that it is a word offensive to their maturity. It isn’t the ma­ jestic word they dislike, but the idea they con­ note with it. And so with “Royal”, another word that should convey thb sense of magnificence or splendour. Why cut it w t as offensive to our new nationhood, as if afraid to admit of our former connections? Why tear down links jwith the past as though they were in some way disgraceful? Tradition is valuable. It becomes more s6 as we grow older and wiser. In all old countries there are odd and charming More Interest, Please When council held its final meeting Monday only one spectator was present—and he recently shouldn’t ibe classified as such, since he was a 1952- councillor-elect boning up on procedure. But that one was one more than usually attends council sessions. Many times no one is present, and we would venture to say not 50 people appear before council or attend as onlookers in the course of a whole year. That indicates an appalling lack of interest on the port of the people in affairs which affects them deeply. There was a great deal more interest in the recent election than in many years, »and we hope that interest rsvill continue—and even heighten; we hope many will turn out every council meeting to see and hear what is doing about the town’s affairs. Such attendance can’t help but make for better government, and as a result, a better town. Your Tree Can Be a Death Trap It’s time again for the annual reminder that Christmas trees are just about the greatest single fire hazard which could possibly ibe placed in a home. What with tinder dry and resin-filled green­ ery, plenty of fancy paper and decorations around the foot of the tree and electric wires o>M?andles strung all over the whole thing, it is an open in­ vitation to the demon of fire unless every precau­ tion is taken. This warning is anything but new' and may merit only a passing glance from many readers. We could wish for a much more arresting method of reminding every householder of this terrible danger. Christmas-time tragedies always spem so much worse because they come at a time when there is a universal desire for happiness and un­ bounded joy. We read only the other day that there is no known method of fireproofing a Christmas tree. You have often read of ways in which your tree can be treated so that it will be less flammable. Hqwever, the thing that counts is care—Care— CARJC, when you are putting up the tree, when you are decorating it and at every subsequent mo­ ment until it is removed from your living room. You must see that every bulb is clear of the greenery, and stays that way; that the wires which lead to the lights don’t get hot when the lights are left on? And above all, don’t go away from the house and leave the lights burning. Remember, that when fire starts iff a Christmas tree, the whole thing is a mass of flames in a matter of seconds. Your drapes go next and then you might as well run for your life. If you own a fire extinguisher and you should— keep it handy and use it at the first sign of danger. Be.careful with your tree and have a happy Christmas! Mr. A. W. Taylor, B.A., has rented his farm at Mount Elgin and is moving into Ingersoll.
