Starlings Disrupt
The Royal Mail
Perhaps they don't realize it, __certain starlings out Folden’s Corners way are playing with fire—tampering with Her Majesty's mails.It seems that a certain mailboxout there has appealed to a couple ofstarlings as the perfect set-up to
begin house-keeping, and if theyfind anything in it, cluttering theplace up, they simply heave it out
That’s why last week’s Folden’snews was late. It was tossed out bythe starlings and found later strewnalong the roadside.

pouring from the house. By around
3 o’clock, despite valiant efforts offriends and neighbours, and their
bucket brigade, nothing remained butsmouldering ruins and what the family had on their backs.Mrs. Phelps said Mrs. Fred Craneacross the road, sent out the alarm,
and Jack Shuttleworth, anotherneighbour, was just about the firston the scene, he and Mrs. Phelps
seeking to enter the flaming homebut being driven back by smoke andflames. “We didn’t get a thing out”,said Mrs. Phelps, who couldn’t findwords to thank all those who rushedforward with clothing, food, blankets, furniture, and anything elsethat might help.The family_of four is now living ina trailer, but hope to rebuild soon. Adding to the plight of the family is the
fact Mr. Phelps is out of a job, having lost it the day his home was de

most tragic part of the whole affairis losing to the flames four scrapbooks of clippings on the Royal fam-

and at present has 31 flowers. Thisis not a large plant itself, as it ispotted in a tomatoe soup can. We
feel that this is a record for a plant

Avert 6CMilk War”
In Ingersoll Area
What might have been a nasty situation in the district milk industry
has apparently been averted.When the Milk Control Board following representations from the Con
centrated Milk Producer^ Assoc., seta price of $3.50 for milk for evaporating, manufacturers of evaporated
milk, such as Borden’s and Carnation,informed their farmers they couldnot —and would not —pay the $3.50,up 25 cents from what they were paying. They informed them they wouldaccept the milk at $3.20 per 100pounds.Local members of the ConcentratedMilk Producers Assoc, met at Dickson’s Hall last Monday to discuss thesituation and urged an immediate
meeting to reach a settlement andavoid any waste of milk. Halting ofdelivery would have had serious re
sults both for the milk producersand the Borden’s tplant, if shortageof milk forced it to shut down.Some 450 farmers deliver milk toBorden’s in this area.
However, the farmers, thoughprotesting, delivered their milk onschedule, and Association officials is
planned action to ensure enforcement of the $3.50 price.Just when everyone was wondering what was going to happen next.Queen’s Park apparently had the$3.50 order revoked, and called for
further negotiations between theproducers and manufacturers. Aprice of $3.30 per 100 was the com
promise result and a “milk war” wasaverted.
James- Revell, secretary of thelocal associateion, pointed out theprice dispute affected only domestic
evaporated milk.
CURDS
and
WHEY
By Irma Hutt
Through the kindness of C. B.Scoffin, we saw an interesting document this week. It was the copy of
the “abstract of title” to his propertyon Oxford Street. The first recordwas of the grant of the land from
the Crown to Thomas Ingersoll on the17th of May, 1802. We couldn’t
make out just what territory thegrant took in, but it was certainlynot what we would think of as a lot
on Oxford Street since part of itfronted on the River Thames. Thefirst sale price was a sum of money,plus 100 pounds of salmon (wherefrom, it does not say). The gradualsale of lots records names that arcfamiliar in the town's history —James and Charles Ingersoll, theMerritts, Stimsons and Buchanans.And incidentally, the copy was made
by G. R. Pattullo, registrar of Oxford in 1915 and father of Duff Pattullo who was premier of BritishColumbia.
Some may talk about the luck ofthe Irish, but to the TiUsonburg Livingstons, it is the luck of the Scots.The team lost the first game of theDominion senior men’s basketballfinals last Monday. On Tuesday, theIngersoll Pipe Band was the ‘addedattraction’ for the second game. Till-
sonburg won. The third game, withthe same entertainers, and the scorewas again right for the tobacco-town
boys. On the night of the fourthcrucial game, another band was to befeatured. The boys got thinking
about the scores and those pipers —and Ingersoll was called back again.And you probably did hear something
about it—the Livingstons are thechampions.

Generosity Unexcelled
The people of Ingersoll and district can right
fully take a bow so far as response to appeals for
aid are concerned. We doubt any community can
equal its record for generosity.
No matter how recently they may have contri
buted to one worthy cause if another comes along
right away, the peopl^ of Ingersoll and district
without hesitation dig down deep and make sure
that that appeal does not go wanting either.
Remember the Winnipeg flood fund? Ingersoll
and district were among the first to rally to help,
and donations exceeded communities many times
the size. When the Bishop of Huron appealed to
Anglicans in the diocese for funds to build new
churches, the people of St James’ here were ex
ceeded iby only one church in Brantford and an
other in London, and that included churches in
"Windsor, St Thomas, Owen Sound, Chatham,
Wallacebung, Sarnia, Simcoe, Woodstock, Strat
ford, Galt, Kitchener, Waterloo, and many other
communities larger than Ingersoll.
In the Easter Seal campaign currently under
way, Ingersoll and district folk have always been
leaders in the province, and this year’s is no ex
ception. The people’s generosity will make it a
great success, as they will following campaigns in
behalf of the Cancer Society, the Red Cross and
the Salvation Army.
It is a great tribute to them.
Fight Cancer
One of the great killer* stalking among us these
day* is cancer, and not too much is known aibout
the disease, and what to do about it.
To further the war against it, a financial drive
is being directed by the Canadian Cancer Society,
and its many divisions and units. The Oxford
County unit headed up by R. F. Brady of Wood-
stock, with Tom Naylor as campaign manager, is
aiming at $15,000.
Messrs. Brady and Naylor have been bustling

Wanted - More Humour
The world needs laughter. We’re terribly short
of humour in these days of harassing problems.
Wisdom isn’t enough, although there’s precious
little of that evident in our dealings with world
affairs.
The wisest men always had their sense of hu
mour to offset their too heavy load of wisdom.
Shakespeare balances his tragic heroe* against his
fools. Their >wit, wisdom and genial foolery are
a nice foil to the sublime miseries of his ill-starred
characters. The fools, by the way, are often his
wisest men, hiding under their motley and appar
ent flippancies, many a sage word of advice or
warning. They were the advance couriers of the
modem comedian. Their business was to make
men laugh. It was one of the wisest of them who
said he’d rather be a fool to make men merry,
than a wise man to make them sad.
Tom Hood, who could so beautifully express the
world’s pain, in such poems as “The Bridge of
Sighs’’ and “The Song of the Shirt," could, on
most occasions, make delicious fun with his funny
rhymes and ridiculous situations. Dodgson, who
for a living taught and wrestled continually with
mathematical equations, became in his released
moments, the Lewis Carroll, who made unforget
table nonsense with Alice and her adventures in
Wonderland and Through the Looking-glass.
It is their sense of humour their ability to spoof .
themselves and their beloved and ancient tradi
tions, that, in spite of austerity and tragedy, keep
the British people sane and hopeful. It also allows
them to see the funny side of the demogogues and
so makes it impossible for them to accept little tin
gods as the real thing.
When the Creator made man the only one of his
creatures who could laugh, He intended'laughter
to be made. It’s the yeast that works to lighten
the heaviness of life; the broom to sweep away
the cobwebs of pessimism and despair that too
often darken the mind of man. Christ is so often
presented to us as the Man of Sorrows, that we
come to think of Him as acquainted only with
grief. There was something else. Men followed
Him and did his bidding. Crowds acclaimed and
worshipped Him. Women and little children loved
Him. Did He not then smile in appreciation of all
this, at the oddities of someone’s behaviour or at
some funny situation? Could He have been the
sympathetic leader of His comrades; the Man who
understood the neglected needs of women and
children, and not have been moved to smiles as
well as tears. True sympathy is never allied to
misery alone. .It enters into and appreciates the
joys and good humours of others. Nothing that
makes a man merry or sad is alien to it. Tragedy
bereft of all humour, makes men mad. Misery
and unwisdom we have in abundance at all timesand everywhere.
Surely we do need a goodly supply of humour
now and always.—EVELINE A. LONG.

T H E C a lV ttt SPORTS COLUMN
Sporting gesture* in which thi. column isprimarily interested, dot the sports scene.
That's traditional. There’ll be many of them
thi* year, a* in every other year. Amateur
and professional sport will both contribute
their quota.
But at year-end, we doubt if you’ll find one to excel, in it*
spontaneous spirit, that developed in Montreal, before a fanatichockey crowd, one night last January.
You’ll require a bit of background, perhaps, to more fully
appreciate this. Maurice (The Rocket) Richard, is the idol of Montreal sportdom. What Babe Ruth and Christy Matthewson were tobaseball; what Lionel Conachcr, Red Grange and Jim Thorpe were
to football, the Rocket is to Montreal’s vast hockey public, plus.That January night, Canadiens were playing one of their bitterestrivals, the powerful Detroit Red Wings, and as an additional attraction, if one was needed, Richard the Rocket was to receive the Awardin recognition of being the Hockey Player of 1951, so selected byand for an American magazine devoted to sports.
So it was, in reality a Richard night, a Richard crowd, come topay homage to an idol. But, unbelievably, because of one spontan
eous sporting gesture, the whole show was stolen by Richard's
arch-enemy of the National League right-wing ice lanes, quiet,hard-shooting young Gordie Howe of the Wings, who just then was
battling Richard tooth and nail for the N.H.L. scoring lead.
It wasn’t that Richard, unable to play because of injury, andclad in civvies, didn't get a great ovation when he stepped out on
the rubber runway, while players of Red Wings and Canadiens
stretched in a line across the ice pounded on the ice with their
sticks to make their own contribution to the occasion. ..It wasn’t
that Mayor Houde, a master-craftsman of words in such events
didn’t speak with eloquence. All that went smoothly as per routine
schedule.
When the presentation was finished, and Richard had marchedback to the promenade '*nd was just about to disappear into the
crowd, Howe suddenly skated away from his position, wheeled over,and called out, "Hey, Rocket!” When Richard turnqd, Howe doffedbia glove, extended his hand, and the two rivals for top goal-gettinghonors in the National Hockey League shook hands warmly.
It was a sort of genuinely unrehearsed spontaneous gesturethat caught the big crowd completely ;by surprise. Montreal crowdsare appreciative of diimatic moments and color in sport, and theyfelt, rightly, that herAivas one of them. For a few seconds therewas a stunned silence.When this crowd who had come to cheer theRocket blasted out alfthunderous roar that even exceeded thewarmth with which Richard had been received, because this cheerwas for an event unexpected. It was a cheer unrehearsed, andthoroughly, warmly genuine.
Before young Howe skated quietly back to hi* right wing
position, * pres* photographer asked him to shake hand* again withRichard, but Howe, no actor, had already contributed a sincere
gesture, and was in no mood to add any studied threatrical touch
and shook hi* head smilingly.
And after that, he went on to score the goal that put him even
with the ailing Richard. And the pro-Canadien crowd cheered him
again even for that.

THINK!
By John F. McRae, D.C.
Think for yourself and reason theproposition in your own mind. What
is the logical result when the nervesupply is reduced to any particularorgan of the body, or when these
vital forces of health are unable tofollow their normal channels due to Iinterference?Chiropractic adjustments not onlyrestore health, they also build health.The old adage: “An ounce of pre
vention is worth a pound of cure”,may be considered trite, but it issound truth.The Chiropractic principal brieflystated is this: The cause of diseaseis in the person afflicted. Adjustments correct conditions that proveillness.The function of every organ in
the body is controlled through the
brain by mental impulses which aretransmitted over nerves.
Any impingement or pinching of
the delicate nene fibres interferingwith the free flow of vital neneforces, causes impaired or abnormal
function. This is disease. This nen’einterference is produced by a vertebral subluxation.
The Chiropractor expert in hisknowledge of the spine—locates thepoint of nerve pressure, and by ad
justing the subluxated vertebrae,releases the pressure.Normal condition—Health—is theresult.(Ont of a series-of articles published in the public interest to ex

and appreciated to the full the por

characters, Stella end Toby. Shethought Vivienne Seath’s characterization of Stella very pleasing inevery way, appearance, manner,
voice, all very charming. She didsuggest however, that a lightertreatment of the dialogue at timeswould have helped achieve more accurately the feeling of gay reparteedesired here by the author. Mrs.
Poole said that while the other ports
were small in that the appearanceson stage were brief, each in turnhad done a fine job of projecting hisor her identity to the audience. She
pointed out that this is really more
of an achievement with a bit part
because it must be done quickly. Inher closing remarks, Mrs. Poolementioned that the yardstick of thesuccess of any play wa* really its

Be Careful
With Grass Fires
By; I. C. Marritt, District Forestar,R. R. No. 1, He»peler, ^Ontario
Much property damage is caused
every year in early Spring by grassfires that get out of control. Thegrass is tinder dry and will burn
quickly if a lighted match is accidentally dropped after lighting apipe or cigarette. Many landowners
start a fire to (burn old grass orhave a bonfire to get rid of rubbish. It may get out erf control and
run in the dry grass, casing damage to fences, buildings, plantationsand woodlots.
Many forest plantations have beenruined by Spring grass fires thathave burned over the area and prac
tically all the trees have been killed.There is usually a heavy mat ofseveral years' growth of grass thathas accumulated and a very hot fireresults.
Spring is the only season that afire will run through a hardwoodbush, as the dry leaves provide fuel.Extensive damage results as seedlings and saplings are destroyed andit quite often scars the larger trees.The smoker should not throwmatches and cigarette butts out ofcar windows, but they should beplaced iq the ash trays. A match orcigarette butt should be droppedand ground into the earth by theheel of the shoe.It is advisable to plan in advanceif the grass on a vacant lot or fieldis being burned off. Burn the grass
when several people are around withshovels or water to keep it undercontrol. The tractor or team witha plow could be ready to plow afurrow as one or two (furrows willstop a grass fire.

projw-ty, and the other municipalities "re only assessing for 60% or
80' < of the value of their property,we are going to pay too high taxes
as our share of the coat of provid
ing tlieoe services.■ In an endeavour to equalize such
charges which are based on assessment. the assessment to equalizedamong the different municipalitiesby the county, district or school
authorities.Appoint Valuators
Prior to an amendment to theAssessment Act ip 1943 if the county
council could not arrive at a proper
equalization of assessment them-relves, they were required to appoint
valuators every five years to value5<r to 8% of the properties in each
municipality. These values were
then reduced to a common ratio e.g.50'c of value and this determined
the equalization of assessment forcounty rates or school purposes
where such school areas coveredmore than one municipality or parts
of more than one municipality.This system did ndt prove satisfactory as the municipalities oper
ated on different methods of valuation generally on a ‘‘guess’’ method
nd the percentage valued was onlya small fraction of the total number
>f properties and therefore in minyinstances quite misleading.
To overcome this and to institute
a standard system of valuation inthe county, the United Counties of
Stormont. Dundas and Glengarry in1943. made the first appointment of
a Countv Assessor under the authority of" the 1940 legislation. Since
that time, 25 other County Assessors
have been appointed, two of themcommencing their duties this year.
This leaves 12 counties whichhave not as yet made appointments.

The duties of a County Assessor
are to supervise the work of thevarious assessors in his county and
to standardize the methods of pre
paration of the assessment rolls. Hereport by June 1st of each year to
his county council and this reportforms the basis of the equalizationof assesment as set by that council.
This report is of necessity only
the basis and may be amended inany way or rejected. Part of the
figures shown in the report are taken
from the assessment rolls preparedby the municipal assessors in the
previous year and the recommendedfigures for the purpose of equalization may have little or no similar
ity to the local assessors’ totals.While the county council prepare
their equalization by-law immediately following the County Assess
or’s report, the county rates or lev-
es based on these figures do notappear in the local tax bills until thefollowing year. A lapse of two years
s thus found between the time yourlocal assessor visits your property
md the time yoa pay county ratesbased on such assessment.
Re-Assessment a Chore
It is found that the CountyAssessor requires from three to five
years to complete his work of reassessment in a county. This period
is determined by the number of
municipalities in the county and theco-operation given by the local mun
icipalities.
The weakness of the countyassessment system being the highest
form of supervised assessment liesin the fact that high school districtsand township school areas overlap
in many cases into adjoining counties with different methods of valu
ations. Possibly the solution is sup
ervision by the Provincial Government in an endeavour to institute a
common basis of valuation and

will be able to check their land val
uation under the re-assessment program currently under way.This was the statement of J. P.Coombe, of Business Planning Associates, who are doing the reassess
ment, to thq Lions Club Monday, Introduced Carl Palmer,.-he wasthanked by‘Bill Davies. /Mr. Coombe said it ■ cos* some
$350,000 t»arun the town, and hefelt it waa^eing spent as carefully
and economically and to the bestadvantage by the councillors, asthough it were their own. "From myknowledge of your officials,” he said,“they aren’t throwing any dollarsaway.” He suggested that Ingersoll
town officials, like all municipalworkers, were over-worked and underpaid.The speaker said municipalgovernment in Ontario was theclosest thing to true democracy
that existed, and he deplored theapathy shown by taxpayer? towardthe affairs of their community.

out, did the average taxpayer takean interest, and then forgot allshout it until the next year. Thisapathy, he said, was allowing “the
red dribble” into the country.Mr. Coomb* noted that of Ingersoll’s 72 mills, the councillors had
control of only approximately 24 Mrithe remainder being more or lesscontrolled by subsidiary bodies, like
the school boards. "You’d be surprised,” he commented, “to knowhow hard your council worked to
keep that tax rate down but I doubtthey are getting very much thanksfor it”He urged all cituens to co-operate with town officials to better thetown, "one of the nicest I’ve ever
been in, one with a future if you allwork for it” He suggested therewas a lot to be said for penalizingthe man who didn’t use his vote,.-oting being a really vital way ofsupporting the town.
Mr. Coombe mentioned that Ingersoll wasn’t alone in the matter ofhigh taxes; they were generally
prevalent Since assessment of thetown’s properties iwas the basis forraising the funds to run it it was
essential that the assessment be fairand equitable, he said, and that was:he purpose of the survey currently
under way. "If you have inequity intaxation then you have inequity alldown the line,” the speaker said.
“We are aiming at equalization ofssessment and uniformity of taxation. We have nothing to hide;there are no favors, nothing don®under the table. We equalize, letting the chips fall where they may.”Mr. Coombe praised Miss Hors-
man, the town assessor, and also theland map she had prepared, whichhe said, was a credit to the townand herself. He said the survey re
vealed several buildings bylt in1812, and one alleged to have beenbuilt in 1801. "And I have found
more discrepancies in rentals in thetown of Ingersoll, than any other;they verge from the sublime to theridiculous.”He said they hoped to do a goodjob for the town, and invited theco-operation of all.

Mystery Intruder
With Big Appetite
Sought by Police
Keep all doors and windows locked, is the warning of Corp. John
McGetrick following several break-
ins of Ingersoll homes in recentdays.Police picked up a suspect Wed
nesday, but none of the victims wasable to identify him, though one gota pretty good middle-of-the-night
look at the intruder.Mrs. G. Statham, Wonham St,reports that her son Walter heardsomeone moving about at 3 a.nu,
thought it might be another brother,
but decided to check anyway, andsaw in. the upstairs hallway—a perfect stranger! The man roared down
stairs, into the cellar, and out theway he had entered, and the Stathams marvelled at his ability to getout of a strange house, in the dark
of night, without tangling in thefurniture, falling or getting lost.The intruder took nothing, and thepeople had the feeling he ,was seek
ing car keys. The Stathams wereaible to give police a pretty full description.
A flashlight he had apparentlystolen from a neighbor’s car waslater found in the home of GordonB. Henry, Duke St, whose home
was broken into Tuesday night.Mr. Henry told police they didn’thear a thing, and knew nothing wasamiss until Jill went downstairs forher usual early-morning piano practice, and rushed back to report thatthe kitchen, dining room and livingroom were a shambles, as a result of
someone having gone through all thedrawers, looking for money, food oranything valuable.
Mr. Henry reported the intruder
(s) had apparently got in through acellar window, and had got awaywith a bit of money and enough food
to last for a long time.Then last week-end thieves entered the porch of R. A. Stone and
took a huge, partially cooked tur
key, some eggs and a quart of milkafter having calmly eaten part ofthe turkey while there and drank
part of a quart of milk. They even“borrowed” one of the Stone’s dishtowels to wrap the bird and a pairof Mr. Stone’s shoes to make the
getaway. 'Footprints of two peoplewere found in the mud outside aporch window.
These "invasions” follow a seriesof thefts frqm parked cars.
