V iew Ingersoll’s public utilities commission is appealing new assessmenttotalling $242,000 levied against itunder a recent Queen’s Park rulingthat municipalities could now tax their public utilities.This is announced by D. M. Seath,PUC manager. The new assessment would meanpayment of $14,460 more in taxesthis year by the PUC. Mr. Seath said the assessment was being appealed with a request for re-valua- tion of the properties concerned. Last year’s total assessment was$9,195.00. Previously the PUC was assessed on the land at the Mill and King Stsub-stations, and the Merritt St,buildings, the hydro shop on Thames St, and business tax on all of thatUnder the new assessment Mill St and King St sub-stations and’ Merritt St buildings as such are assessed as taxable, thia working out to newassessment of $193,600.00 plus busi ness tax."We think the assessment is toohigh,” he declared, stating their aim was to avoid necessity of raisinghydro and water rates, which mightbe necessary if such an additionaltax burden of $14,460 were sustained. The Unemployed Are Getting Fewer The employment situation in Inger soll is getting brighter all the time,Fred McDermott, of the Unemployment Insurance offices announces. "It is improving considerably,” hedeclared, stating men were goingback to the factories, into construct ion work and on to the farms.“We’ve around 100 unemployed inIngersoll at the present time.” Beah Tatoulis P.

These fish have very definiterequirements in the matter of food,temperature and chemical conditions , of the water. In order to ensurethat as many of these fish as possible survive to reach the fisherman's creel, plantings are made only in streamswhich come up to the necessary requirements.

Jaycees Preparing For New Signs Posts Designated By this week-end the whole townwill have been surveyed and spotsdesignated for new street signa,King Newell, chairman of the JuniorChamber of Commerce Committee re sponsible for the project, announces.Last week, armed with a town mapmarked M to where the signs shouldbe, Newell, Dave Stone and HerbHicklin, president of the Jaycees, covered the area south of the Thames,and west of Thames St, and with a paint brush indicated on which poststhe new signs would go. The northside of town, plus east of Thames St, will be similarly covered this week, itis hoped, and then it will simply be acase of awaiting the new signs, close to 200 in number.The Jaycees are undertaking this project with the blessings and financial aid of the town council, and MissMae Horsman, town assessor, has also been helping the boys with hervast knowledge of the community. It is hoped the new signs will be upwithin the next month. CURDS and WHEY By Ina a Hatt Pity the poor fishermen! Therewere lota of Ingersoll and district people who apparently believedthose stories about the fabulousperch runs at Goderich and headednorth for all or part of the weekend. But of the .ones who wentearly, and the ones who went late, we heard of only one party that hadany luck—five fish for five people.And then—the hardest blow of all_ when the next morning came therewere not even those few to make atasty breakfast. The family cat had had a midnight feast. JOANNE MURRAY, 3 STRUCK BY CAR Joanne Murray, three-year-olddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Murray, Thames Street north, re ceived minor injuries Wednesdayevening when struck by a car drivenby Harold Diiwdry, Thames Streetsooth. The little girl was crossing thestreet to join her sister, Mary, whenthe accident occurred. Constable Carl Preston investigated. Of interest to Ingersoll, was oneof the most perplexing cases of its kind in the history of Canadian courts when A. S. Marriott seniormaster of the supreme court of On tario was faced with determining whowere the legal heirs to the estate ofGertrude Perry Smith, Torontonian and temperance worker who left$115,000 When she died Sept 8, 1950,without making a wilLFinally, in an out-of-court settlement, it was decided that two of heraunts, Mrs. Agnes Perry Bogenreif, of Chicago, and formerly of Ingersoll,and Mrs. Ettie May Perry Elkins, ofNew Orleans, would share 70 per cent of the estate, and the remainderwould be split among 13 first cousins.Mrs. Bogenreif lived here as a girl with her uncle and aunt, the lateSolon and Sarah Martin, on HarrisStreet and is a sister-in-law of Mrs.R. B. Hutt, Oxford St, and Mrs. H. E. Hutt Earl St At Osgoode Hall the master was confronted with a family Bible 100years old, birth, marriage and deathcertificates, newspaper clippings musty with age, inscriptions on oldtombstones, family photos, the representations of six lawyers, some acting as counsel and others as witnesses, testimony of persons from Canada and the U.S. as far down as New Orleans, and claims of first and second cousins that “Aunt Gert’s”mother, Sophie Perry, was adopted.Actually, the issue boiled down. to a dispute between the two claimantaunts of the deceased, Mrs. Bogenreif and Mrs. Elkins and the cousins)* of which there are several living inOntario. Among the cousins claiming inter est in the estate and giving testimonywere Dr. Hazel Edna Smith, a Brantford dentist, and William Smith, retired Toronto railway signalman. Mrs. Marjory Brant, of Toronto, asecond cousin, also gave testimony. Lome Smith, convalescing in a Gra venhurst hospital, and Jane SwanRobinson of Detroit submitted affidavits. Crowded With Smiths Getting all the relatives and themany Smiths who thought they had an interest in the estate sifted out wasquite a chore for the Public Trustee’soffice. At least 50 persons, mostly Smiths, were present in the master’schambers keenly following the proceedings. For many year8 before retiring toher College St home, the deceasedoperated a confectionary store and tea shop at Gerrard and Yongestreets. She was noted for her philanthropic work, particularly in theBaptist m/ssions. She, her two "liters and a brother, were unmarried.This fact necessitated the search into the distant past for heirs. The contention of the cousing wasthat the deceased’s mother, Sophie Perry, who married Elias O. Smith,was adopted, thus nullifying theclaims of Mrs. Elkins and Mrs. Bo- ................. were half-two U.S. their prove the number of children thatSophie Perry and Elias O. Smith had,Mr. Gray had Roger Morris, a student at law, give evidence as to the inscription on a tombstone mentioningthe chiildren.Read Newspaper Clipping*On the same point Mr. Gray show ed newspaper clippings followingSophie Perry’s death Dec. 13, 1927,when she was killed by a car whilegetting off a street car, to show thatthe obituaries referred to the children she had.On Point 4 to prove that Gertrudewas predeceased by her two sistersand brother, Mr. Gray introduced the death certificate showing alsothat all were unmarried. On Point5 to prove Sophie Perry and EliasO. Smith were married Mr. Graycalled W. Marshall, solicitor of Ingersoll, who told the master the recordof marriage was listed in the “Wood- stock Sentinel” of Friday, April 12,1872.The marriage notice listed thebride’s father as an inkeeper atInncrkip, near Woodstock, and thegroom as being employed with a Tor onto business firm, said Mr. Marshall. He read notice from a photostatic copy of the old newspaper.Roger Morris, student at law, wascalled to testify that after going toprospect cemetery he found that on the tombstone of Elias O. Smith,Sophie is referred to as his wife.On Point 6 to prove that Sophie Perry and Elias O. Smith were deadprior to the death of their daughter,Gertrude, Mrs. Bogenreif told of her knowledge of Sophie.She said she was a half-sister andRotated to one family picture showinger with Sophie. She also turned toa big Bible to show the record of allthe births of the family written on a back sheet She testified she had itever since her father died in 1882.

R.member, telcpUne that birthday THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE Phone - 13 Ingersoll’s three sketch clubs, thejunior, intermediate and adult, deserve the richest praise for the fineexhibit now on display at the library. There is certainly remarkable talentin our community and it is being developed under such teachers asHarry Whitwell and Miss Jean Beat-tie. Interesting to note is thechange, whether it be improvement or growth, in the work of many since last year’s show and the addition ofmany new names.In the adult section, there is awide variety of subjects and alsoseveral class studies which display the differing individual reaction inmood and colour to the same scene.Trees, clouds, barns and a still life subject treated in this manner madean interesting study in styles of theartists. Interesting too, was an ex ample of the use of the numberingsystem through which the paintermakes a quick sketch, using num bers to indicate colour and thencompletes the painting later fromthese “notes”.The intermediate and juniors, too,have distinct personalities and their display promises a fine future for the senior groups.Members of the adult class exhi biting are: Miss Jean Beattie, Mrs. George A. Crown . Starts Hardware An old Ingersoll boy, George A.Crown, has started his own hardwarebusiness in Dorchester.George, bom here, the son of thelate Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Crown,has always hankered after his ownhardware business, but where tostart it. A friend mentioned Dorchester, then one week he saw inThe Tribune an aerial pietore of Dorchester, and that settled it Heopened for business last Saturday.After public school and highschool here, George worked for S.M. Douglas and Sons, then BobCarr's hardware for three years, then for 11 years for Martin-Senourpaints, in Easter Ontario. He Is married, with one daughter,Jane, 7. His wife is a former Belleville girt. E. C. Grimes, Mrs. A. Crutcher, Sirs.E. Deamude, Mrs. Fred Story, Mrs(.J. Mitchell, Harold Wilson, Mrs. Ralph Atkinson, Joan Tyson, Dr.A. W. Waring, Mrs. Janies Robins,Mildred Scott, Betty Crawford, Mrs. W. Armstrong, Jack Crawford,Mrs. Robert Adams Harry Whitwell, George Whitwell, Mrs. L. MacDonald.The intermediates (12-15 years),are: Larry Messenger, Philip Bruce.Harry Godden, Charles Pembleton,Bill Parker, Eva Pembleton, DonFreemantle, Bruce Parker, HarryShelton, Evelyn Maw, CampbellJohnson, Jack McGinnis, Donald Springall, Ted Dajwdry.The juniors (6-12 years), are:Elizabeth Hipperson, Anita Hipperson, Janice Soper, Mary Jane La-Flanune, Carol Cox, Patsy Latford,Ruth Ann Windram, Michael Cooper, Florence latford , Lorraine Ferris,Lynda Lockhart, Margaret Godden,David Hager. At the meeting of the club a soundcolour movie of Bermuda and Mexico was shown by Harold Wilson. A contest on the identification of agroup of famous paintings, conducted by Mrs. J. Robbins, was won by Mrs. J. B. MitchellIn appreciation of his work onbehalf of the club, Mr. Harry Whitwell was presented with an aluminum sketch box. Gifts were also given to Miss Jean Beattie and to the clubpresident, Mrs. Florence Crutcher.Refreshments were served by thesocial committee under Mrs. IdaGrimes and Mrs. Amy Deamude. , It’s not that wc don’t want you to believe in the Tribune advertisements implicitly - - just don’t takethem TOO literally . At least, afterhearing the tale of one of our readers, that is our advice. This gentleman, finding himself a bit short of cash the other day, offered to payhis insurance agent by cheque. Saidagent produced a cheque form and our friend signed it, remarkingpleasantly that it was on “My Bank—The Bank of Montreal”. Some hours later, he suddenly realizedthat “My Bank”, or no, it wa* notthe bank which had his account. Hephoned the insurance man, only to find that he had left town. withvisions of at least a cancelledinsurance policy, and at most several years at hard labour for issuingworthless cheques, he spent a worried night. Then he called the bank found them very understanding andall was well. We think the bankshould be flattered that their ads have such effect even if it is subconscious. Several from Ingersoll attended the Ontario School for the Blindpresentation of “The Mikado” atWoodstock last week. Home and School Associations of the districtsponsored its presentation. IL G.Billings, one of those attending, re ported that the excellently-done operetta was a real inspiration. All members of the cast learned their lines from Braille scripts and gestureswere taught by individual instruction. All the sets and costumes were made at the school too. Since theage group at the school is from 6 young cast. Around the Town A flock of between 100 and 150Canada Geese was seen rising off the Thames early one morning this weekby Jimmy Hutson. “One of the finest flocks I've ever seen,” saidJimmy. “They apparently spent the night on the river and a trainbrought them up.” A huge mud turtle last week ventured into civilisation (up Thamc-3St south), and lost The works dept found him, flattened, near the corner of Thame* and King Sta.

These people make the town look, on occasion, like a dump, particularly on the main street The main street is the one that most people see and the one that gives a community its name. Our town has much more streetage than almost any other of comparable size, and it is absolutely impossible for the board of works to keep every inch of it spotless. They’re doing some section of the town all the time, and at least once a week some section of the main street is cleaned. It would be nice to have it cleaned daily, but it’s impossible. However, a little co-operation from we citizens would prevent the main street looking like it did for a few days this past week—the gutters just littered with assorted scraps, paper and trash. The Jaycees have as one of their projects set ting up of trash cans on the main corners where you can toss those odd bits of paper and trash, but, in the meantime, please hang on to it until you get home or to the office. It’ll make our town look a lot nicer. Ah, the gloom that pervades The Tribune these days. This week, as you will know now, Louis Mac- nab is unveiling his big new Lincolns to public inspection. To mark this special occasion, Mr. Macnab wanted some very, very special invitations, and he invited The Tribune to provide same. By dint of much checking, and iphone calling, we rounded up 21 sheets of the extra-special paper required. They were to be printed in gold, too, and Joe, our foreman, did himself proud mixing this ink to the ultimate. Everything was just so, and everyone barely breathed as this special print job progressed from stage to stage, cutting, print ing, brushing, scoring, folding and wrapping, When a sink in the apartment upstairs overflowed, pouring into the pressroom below, there was only one thought - - Louis’ Lincoln invitations. All hands rushed to the acene grabbing old papers to make sure these items of the printer’s art were protected. Finally pleased as punch at a job well done, we drove over to Macnab’s and with the air of presenting the crown jewels, handed them over, a beautiful job fit only for a Lincoln. They were received, and admired, then Grant says, "gosh, they’re lovely, but who’s this guy, Louis J. Mac- nab?.” Mr. Macnab’s initial is B. Yep, the crepe is thick around here these days, but, dam it, J looked bo natural. What Others Say: Mr. Charles White of the NoxonCompany, has beep appointed headbookkeeper for the D.

G. Riddle 255 Skye St. Ingersoll PHONE - 1362 ^suppl ies Golf Club Here? When spring blossoms forth—and yes, even months earlier—thoughts of many folk turn long ingly to such items as the bunker, and long, tricky fairways, and the niblick, and hitting below 70— or 110, whatever the case may be. The thoughts of local golfers are very much in those directions right now, and some are even pondering something better—all those things right at home here! An Ingersoll golf course has always been in the minds of local enthusiasts, and it keeps breaking out periodically. Once again a group of club wield- ers are considering all the angles, and wondering if it couldn’t be done. St Marys, for example, has a nice course, -why can’t we? And why not? Right now, local folk have to go to Woodstock, or further, perhaps to London. It puts golf out of the reach of a lot of people who might otherwise indulge. We hope the planning and the hoping of those who want a course here materializes; it would add a great deal to the life and interest of Ingersoll. Industry of the Month Did you know that Woodstock is a mining town? On our western doorsteps are three large, open-pit mining operations, employing over 200 men, and with several million dollars invested . . . to be sure, it’s . . . "THE QUARRIES”! These companies face the future with confi dence. They have large reserves blocked out At the present rate of consumption, core drilling has indicated a supply sufficient for one hundred years of operation. In the last Ac months, one company alone, Chemical Lime Limited, has spent over a million dollars in modernizing its equipment and increasing its capacity. This company was organ ized in 1932 as the Innerfdp Lime and Stone Company, by James Vance and associates, and was acquired by the present owners in 1945. Its daily capacity has been increased from 200 tons of stone to 2500 tons, and research is presently under way with a view to increasing its capacity still further. In co-operation with the other two com panies in the area, it joined with T.VA. to im prove the channel of the Thames River at no cost to the municipalities. This eliminated a very ser ious flood threat- The crushed limestone goes mainly to the steel mills in Hamilton; about 100,000 tons a year go to the Canada Cement Company in Port iColbome to enrich the stone they quarry for cement purposes. Lime from this area is a premium product and it is shipped to mines in Northern Quebec, who are prepared to pay the freight premium to get this finer product. It’s quite a spectacular operation they carry on out there. Doug. Campbell, the Manager of the Company - - he lives in Woodstock because he likes it here - - tell us that it’s not uncommon to set off 5000 pounds of powder in one tremendous blast that will bring down 20,000 tons of rock. Keep your eye on this area—we predict a great future. —(Woodstock Board of Trade Bulletin.) Editor’s Note — Gosh, there goes Woodstock again—claiming everything under the sun as their’s.

T H EC a lvett SPORTS COLUMN There will be drama and there will be thrill* in the. renewal of the Kentucky Derby thi* year, because thrill*, drama and the Derby go hand-in-hand, a triumvirate of tradition. It may be the thrill of a winning favorite. It may be the drama of a rank outsider roaring down the historic stretch at Churchill Downs, in the Run for the Rose*. But no matter what the thrills, I doubt if any result, anydevelopment (will equal for sheer throat-catching drama what happened on May 17, 1924, the fiftieth running of the Derby whichis not even a Derby. For that was the day when through the Derbycrowd there walked to the judges’ stand a woman in mourning,amid the wild cheers of the multitude, to receive the token ofvictory. That was the day Black Gold won the Derby, and this is thestory behind it: Black Gold was owned by Mrs. IL M. Hoots, widow of an Oklahoma oil man who had gone broke in his search for that very thingforrwhich he named his horse: black gold. Disappointed, discouraged, he failed in health and died. In the waning day* of hi* life, all Hoot* and hi* family had wa* the horse—Black Gold. They campaigned it north and south, won some lesser races, termed “Derbies with the black ion of Black Toney, but racing against the brilliant performer* who car- ried the color* of millionaire owners, of famous breeding farms,of the Whitney* and Bradley* and Cochrane* and Sinclair*, Black Gold wa* rated a* having a scant chance for the Derby. Not, at least until a few day* before when he won the Derby Trial impressively. The legend is that when Hoots realized his days were numbered, he exacted a promise from his wife that Black Gold-should have a chance for high stakes—a chance in the Kentucky Dbrby, iffor no other reason than reward for his honest performances. So, in 1924, the widow took the horse to Churchill Downs.There was no trumpet to herald his arrival. It was more like anoutcast trying to break into high society. After all, Black Gold was a campaigner from the small tracks—out in the sticks—so they thought, as the field went to the post. But two minute* later when the field came under the wire, it wa* Black Gold which *howed the way, beating out Chilhowee fromthe rich Gallaher Stable by half a length in a driving finiab. And the men of million* had to make way for the widow of an oil man who died broke, when the path wa* opened to the platform for the presentation of the trophie* and the rosea, while the band played“My Old Kentucky Home”.

Tale ToldOf BridgesBy M. E. CroppAn early traveller through WesternOntario wrote there was no bridgeanywhere on the Thames in 1827.This of course, except the Indian log bridges. There was a log bridgeat BeachviUe, probably from prepioneer times. A map among the‘‘Simcoe Papers'* indicates that Governor Simcoe crossed this log in 1793.Under the date 1846 in the diary ofCol. Alexander Light,' who settledeast of BeachviUe in 1833, is found the following entry: 1846 Contract"Account of District moneys ex pended by W. Light, district counsellor for North Oxford, 1846.“Entered into contract with A. CarroU, West Oxford, to build goodsubstantial bridge at BeachviUe for£79-5 shillings. Mr. Scott's district councellor to pay in ratio to the moneys received by each township.”This entry was made by CoL Light’s son, William. WiUiam wasa lieutenant in the Oxford Militiadu ring/the rebellion of 1837. He rose in military rank until in 1863 he be came commanding officer «f the Oxford Rifles. He was alsq/fnspector of schools for North Oxford for severalyears beginning in 1844. ' , Early Detail* Much information may be gleaned from the early County RegistryBooks. In 1831 there was still nobridge over the creek on Water street which runs past Charles Buchanan’sbarn. In 1831 there is mention of thepresent mill pond. In 1839 a lot was bought from R. Martin on Churchstreet for a Roman Catholic Churchand burying ground. This is where the homes of J. Smith and Mr. Fabernow stand. A map of BeachviUe for1876 shows this church still serving the community. It was later burned,and the bodies in the cemetery movedto IngersoU. The first Roman Catholic mass in Oxford County was cele brated in O’Neil’s’Blacksmith shop inBeachviUe in 1835.In 1839 all the streets on the south side of the river are mentioned inthe Registry Book. In 1840 the Bankof Upper Canada bought a lot here. During this period there is muchmention of the '“Farmers and Mechanics Building Society," the “Build ing Society of the District of Brock,”and the “Western Building Society ofthe District of Brock,” and the “Wes-tern'Building Society.” Property Described Descriptions of property in theearly Registry Books are interesting. In 1859 the property now be longing to Harley Cousins was sold by {Jornelius Vanalstine to HarryFargo Martin and described thus:“One half acre, part of the northerly part of Lot No. 8 coming on to the east side of Zorra street andat the water’s edge of the RiverThames, thence south-easterly along the edge of said street, 3 chains, 53links to a willow tree, being thethird largest tree from Vanalstine’sbarn, and then N 72 degrees 40' E 8 chains 73 linfcs more or less along the north edge of Hook street to anElm tree about 18" in diameterstanding on the edge of the river Thames aforesaid, then following said river down stream to the placeof beginning.” Rebellion Leader Among the early business men was Cornelius Cunningham, wagonmaker, who operated here for several years, prior to the Rebellion of 1837. He was hanged in 1839 in London jail as a leader of therebels.James Fuller l.ad a smith’s shopon the south aide of the river in1819.Calvin Martin operated a sawmill below the present site of theC.N.R. station. This was abandonedand part of the machinery washedawav by 1850. Samuel Canfield operated a sawmill at a very early date. yAnother mill site which was abandoned a* long as anyone can remember is on Foundry Creek, behindCharles Reeve’s home.

PHONE 179 Plan "Open House’ At Hospital Here On May 12th, hundreds of hoepi- (tals throughout the British Empire j will be honoring the birthday of ]Florence Nightingale, and Alexandra , Hospital will be among those who (will hold Open House on this occas- (ion. It is the day that the general ,public will be asked to look elver < their hospital and so far as is poss- jible, without harm or annoyance to ,the patients this will be observed on , Tuesday, May 13th in our hospital ,this year. The nurses and staff with 1the members of the Women’s Aux- (iliary will be on hand to show the ,visitors and answer questions be- ,tween 2.30 and 5.00 <p.ra. It might not be amiss for us to 1look once again on the life and •achievements of this remarkable wo- ;man who revolutionized the methods 1 of looking after the sick and set the istandards for the modern nursing i profession. She .was bora in Flor- < cnee, Italy, May 12th, 1820, to jwealthy and aristocratic parents 'who named her after the beautiful < city where she was born. She spent ,her early days on the estates of her Ifather in Derbyshire and Hamp- i shire and it requires no imagination ’to picture the sheltered, cultured ;and orderly manner of her early . years. Her education was unusual .for a girl of her time, higher mathe- ;matics, music, art, science and literature. She spoke Italian, German and French as well as she spokeEnglish and was most proficient inLatin and Greek. She travelled ex tensively with .her parents in herearly years, was presented at Courtin due time and moved in the highestpolitical and aristocratic circles. It is also known that she had many suitors but did not seem to favor anyof them. She was particularly fond of animals and as a child was veryclever looking after them when theywere sick or in^tfred. During hertravels she became interested inhospitals on the Continent, whjchwere much better looked after than in England. They were mostly runby Nuns or Sisters of Charity orwomen who gave up their lives to the care of the sick. She was greatlyimpressed with the Institute ofKaiserwerth in Germany, and spentsome months there learning their methods of/ looking after the sickand the administrations of such institutions. She spent almost five years visiting hospitals, and in 1853,when 33 years of age, established ahospital for invalid gentlewomen in London. She met with strenuousapposition to any request or projectfor alleviation of the suffering in hospitals. It was not considered thesort of work for a lady. In 1854while Britain was engaged in the Crimean War, reports of the terriblesuffering of the wounded Britishsoldiers caused a furore. A letter inThe Times from Cardinal Manningdemanded that something be donefor them, and asked “Are there nodevoted women amongst us, ableand willing to go forth to ministerto the sick and suffering soldiers inhospitals in Scutaria? Are none ofthe daughters of England at this extreme hour of need, ready for sucha word of mercy?” The clamour from women all over Britain demandingto go out to the Crimea forced thegovernment to take action. SidneyHerbert, Minister of War, realizedthat to send untrained women out was useless. As he knew FlorenceNightingale personally and thoughtshe was the only woman capable oftaking charge of this work, he askedher if she would undertake the matter. She accepted immediately and gathered 88 nurses to go with her.There was much opposition andpetty annoyances before she sailedin October, 1854. She met with thesumo treatment and hnd army redtape to contend with when she landed in the Crimea, but the woundedand terribly sick soldiers welcomed her as an angel from Heaven. Nothing could daunt her, and the storyof her woi'c and of women who went with her is one of the inspiringstories of our heritage. Although her health was frail, owing to the privations she suffered in the Crimea,she increasingly petitioned for helpto get the proper training schools3 for nurses established. Her tenacity never flagged and she eventually won out. The torch was carried byother women when she died in 1910.Florence Nightingale wrote several books on nursing, and her advicewas sought on all matters pertainingto the profession. Not the least of these noble women who helped herwas Queen Alexandra, who tooksuch an interest in the healing ofthe sick and who instituted the Alexandra Rose Day in aid of hospitals.Our own hospital in ilngersoll was named for her. In fifty years hospitals have come a long way in thefight to combat sickness and disease; so have nurses. The shining templesof health, with their intricate andwonderful machinery, no less than the highly trained nurses who operate them, would amaze FlorenceNightingale, the woman who helped them on their way, almost 100 yearsago, but she would never lose sightof their main purpose - - the healing of the sick, (which is the true meaning of nursing) - - the human touch!The nurse who can .look into the eyes of her patients and give themconfidence in her ministrations, byher cheerful and kindly words, give them courage to fight their ownbattles, and the nurse (who can takea few minutes to lay her hand with compassion on the dying and easetheir going - - this is the teaching ofFlorence Nightingale.

That is not 50 per centor 75 per cent of value as is sometimes assumed but 100 per cent ofvalue. This section also stat^-thatwhen assessing land without build ings erected thereon, consideration isto be given to the following factors—location, present use, normal rentalvalue, normal sale value, and anyother circumstances affecting the value..Then when assessing land withbuildings erected thereon, consideration is to be given to the present use,location, cost of replacement, normalrental value, normal sale value, and any other circumstance, affectingthe value. The amount to be placedfor assessment purposes on the buildings is to be the amount by which theyincrease the value of the land.

One brother purchased a $1000.00 lot in a goodresidential section while the otherpurchased a $100.00 lot in a poor section. The replacement of either ofthe houses at 1940 values was $6000.In the good residential area the assessor was justified in placing thetotal replacement cost of the house$6000.00 for assessment purposes asthe house by reason of its location,rental value and sales value increased the value of the land by thatamount However, while the house on the poor lot was just as much toerect its poor location, lower rentaland sales values, lessened its actual appreciation of the land so the assessor was quite justified in placingonly $3500.00 on the building for assessment purposes.The same situation would develop where two similar value houses wereerected, one in a city and one in avillage. A good brick house would coat as much to erect in the Town ofBala as in the City of Toronto butdue to its location, lower rental andsales value, the property would notbe as valuable.To overcome this, assessors usevarious methods to bring the assessment value mory in line with the ac tual value. Some of these methodsare by allowing depreciation or location obsolescence, or by using rental captilization, etc. While objectionsmay be found to any of these methodsstill if the system is applied fairly over the whole municipaity there willbe some degree of equity,not only between properties of the same type orclass, but also between differenttypes of property.The fact that a building is old does UNITED STATES-CANADA GOOD WILL WEEK, April!I7M.

U.e Normal Value Year Present day replacement costs and saleB values are possibly very poorguides today in establishing assessment values. For this reason, themajority of assessors take year 1940as the normal year value year when calculating their assessment values.This ensures that even if real estatevalues decline in the future that property is not assessed at over 100per cent of valueIn some municipalities, sales valueshave appreciated as much as 300 percent over 1940 values while buildingcosts generally have risen about 200per cent It wil be readily seen fromthese figures that a person assessed on 1940 values has'nt much complaintunless he is inequitably assessed withhis neighbours or other property the assessing area. . in Here’s the StoryOf a Snif Iter AYLMER CLEANERS AND DYERS Quality and Service PHONE - 170 Page 9the time away ’till the run starts—if it does.The odd character, showing off,usually falls in adding merriment tothe other adventurers, laughing atthe unfortunate one who Is desperately trying to dry out his wetboots and pants over the smokingcamp fire in the cold spring night the flashlight’ll gleam.

The report shows that the1951 net profit is equal to 5.9 cents on each $1 of sales, as against 7.9cents per $1 of sales in 1950.Sales in the Canadian market am- mounted to $210,326,505, being 7per cent lower than in 1950, but sales of $42,681,851 to markets outsideCanada were 91 per cent higherthan in the preceding year and 42 per cent greater than in 1949.The number of Canadian-built vehicles sold by the company in 1951 was 119,528 comparing'with 128,668in 1950. Of the total, the Canadian market absorbed 92,995, as against112,968 in 1950, and shipments tomarkets outside Canada totalled 26,533 units as compared with a1950 total of 15,700. The Companyalso sold in Canada, in addition toits .Canadian-built vehicles, 9,527units imported from the United Kingdom and the United States,making total sales of 102,522 in theCanadian market in 1951. The de mand in Canada for the smaller English - type vehicles declined sharplylast year, but imports of Lincolnsfrom the United States increasedsubstantially.Sales of tractors, which are notincluded in the vehicle sales figures,amounted to 7,508 units as compared with 9,314 in the preceding year.Despite a smaller average workforce, salaries and wages paid by thecompany in 1951, plus provision forthe retroactive pay increase agreedto early in 1952 totalled $45,782,973compared with $44,683,528 in 1950.The employee pension plans introduced in 1950 had their first fullyear of operation during 1951. Costof the plans during the year amounted to $3,382,215, including the year’spayment for the funding of past service obligations. In addition,, groupinsurance plans cost the company $984,460.

Before we can confidently go ahead with the job, we must learnmore about our land and water, more about the ills that afflict it andmore about the measures oc-rtrmediesthat can be applied. / The Land The Thames Watershed is in oneof the most favoured regions of the world with respect to soil and water.Several hundred feet under the surface lie deep beda of fairly soft rock,limestone, shale and sandstone. Thesewere formed in seas millions of years ago and there were washed into theseas most of the soluble minerals For - • -COCKSHUTT Farm Implements Sales and Service Glen McCready SALFORD Phone - 242W3 that are required by plants for heal thy growth.Within the last million years and up to the last 15,000 years, our landwas invaded by great masses of icethousands of feet thick, called glaciers. These glaciers ground up theunderlying rock and deposited it over the landscape in the form ofboulder clay or loam. When the icemelted the meltwaters sorted outgravels, sands, silts and clays andredeposited them in hills and plains made of these materials. For themost part the shape and materialson the surface are the results of the action of ice and meltwater. The surface soil has been built on the materials deposited by the glaciers and meltwaters. The soils _ asthey existed when Europeans first came to the region were built up bythe action of the rain and the air,the forest growth on the surface andthe multitude of living thiYigs, mostlymicroscopic, within the soil as it grew. The soils as we find them noware considerably changed from whatthey were 150 years ago, due to the use that we have made of them.

POWERS, M.O.H., Oxford County. bringing up samples with a soilauger three and a half feet long.The soil in its virgin state had a top “level” or, more correctly called,a “horizon”, dark-coloured due tothe decayed plant material, or hum us, in it. This has a good balance ofplant food, absorbs and hold moisturereadily and has a “structure”, “tex ture" and “consistency” ideal forseeds to germinate and roots to penetrate to anchor the plant and draw moisture and food from the soil.The lower horizon of the topsoilusually has a grayish colour and is quite dusty. The subsoil is reddish-brown and breaks, when dry orslightly moist, into particles like hazel nuts which may be furtherbroken down to material like buckwheat or coffee grounds. In this state it holds moisture well and allows the bigger roots of plants topenetrate easily. Below the subsoil is the parent material of the soilwhich, of course, is the gravel, sandsilt, clay or loam (a mixture of sand, silt clay or loam (a mixture of sand,silt and clay) which was deposited bythe glacier. Poorly Drained Much of the land is poorly drained;either because of a subsoil whichdoes not allow moisture to go through it or because of poor surface drainage, or a combination of both, thewater stays in' the soil. Plants need air in addition to soil and water, andsoil that is too wet is not good forfarming. Even* in dry weather it is possible to identify such a soil because the gray horizon of the topsoilis missing and the subsoil is gray or mottled gray and brown instead ofreddish-brown and it does not havethe nice hazel-nut and buckwheat structure.The shape of the surface of theland is pretty much the same as when formed by the glaciers. Thebiggest valleys, and many of thesmaller ones, were cut by glacialmeltwater. The present streams are occupying valleys bigger than theyneed. The land has been cut a littleby small streams which flow intothe larger ones. Because the river systems havenot cut their own channels we saythat the surface drainage is “imma ture” and there are latge areas notat all well drained. Some day, thousands of years hence, the natural process of geological erosion will drain the land better. In the meantime, to get the best use of the soilwe have to create channels artificially. The area drained by the mainbranch is rolling or undulating andis naturally fairly well drained. Much of the area drained by the north branch is flat or has a lot oflow-lying areas not tapped bystreams and the laqd is poorlydrained. The Water All the water we have comes fromsnow, rain and dew. At London andStratford each year about 38 inches of water falls. This is five inches more than the average for SouthernOntario and, oddly enough, aboutten more than the average in the richest agricultural areas of Eng*land and Scotland. It comes fairlyevenly, month by month. There arethree disadvantages, however, to ourrain supply. The first disadvantage is that because of our hot summer the 2% or 3 inch monthly portion is not quite enough so that there is a tendencyto drought. The second is that, although we get 2 H or 3 inches mostmonths, sometimes we get weeks or even a month with none at all. Ifthis happens in summer we have drought and this is the greatest hazard to farming that we have.The third disadvantage is that during the winter the moisture is stored in the form of snow and agreat deal of it may melt within afew hours or days and give morewater than the rivers can carry. Then we have floods. In the summer a whole month’s supply of rain maycome in one storm, possibly afterquite a spell of dry ^weather, but the soil cannot hold so much water at one time, and the rivers mayoverflow. f Many things can happen to rain fall. The complete story of whathappens to water, rain, to ground,to streams and eventually to the lakes and oceans from which it evaporates and returns to us inclouds, is called the “water cycle”.It is called a “cycle” because thewater goes around and around andnone is ever really lost The storyof what happens to water in ourown locality is called the “run-off cycle”. If we want to control waterto get the best use of it, we shouldunderstand the workings of thiscycle. i As the rain falls, some is held by leaves or on the surface, from whichit evaporates. When the ground ismoist, the soil moisture is lost through the plants in a process called transpiration. Water whiehjs notused may flow over the land to the streams." This is called “overland run-ofi'”. The remainder goes intothe ground and may find its waythrough the soil to springs, swamps and streams. This is called “seepagerun-off”. Below the ground there issoil which is' permanently water logged. This supply of water is called “ground water” and the surface is called the “water table”. Itis from the ground water that we draw the water from our wells andsome of it may rise, like moisturein a.wick, to keep up the soil mois ture. This is called “capillary act ion.” The water table may ibe higheror lower depending on the supplyand how much is used. The water left over from evapo-transpiration,overland run-off and seepage run-offgoes to the ground water and iscalled “ground water recharge”, (To be continued) SALFORD Women** Institute The annual meeting of the Salford Women’s Institute was held at the home of Mrs. Lou Clark, withMrs. Leslie Nancekivell as convenor.A social evening will be held in theUnited Church Hall, April 25th, for members, families z and friends,where the guest Zspeaker will beClark Murray, M.j*.

By planting the trees in the bottom of the furrow or centreof the spot, competition for moistureand light is reduced at first A pail with water in the bottom to keep the roots moist is the bestmethod of carrying the trees whileplanting.

Ex-Ingersoll Lady !(Continued from Page 1) 1"I visited Sophie and Ellas, and also JGertrude when she lived on \CollegeSt"/ |W. k. Warrender , representing fthe first cousin*, asked the witness jwhat she would say if other witnes- |sea said that Sophie was adopted and jnot th* natural child of Daniel king (Perry,. “I wouldn't believe it,” Mrs.Bogenreif replied. IRoger Morris testified Gertrude jPerry Smith was buried in the same plot at Prospect cemetery as her (mother and father. The inscriptionon her grave has not yet been put on, . he noted.Mr. Morris also maintained there waa no record of Sophie’s birth because she waa-born 100 years ago,before the time of governmental sta tistical records.George T. Walsh Jr., appearing for a second cousin, asked the witnesswhere the tombstone cutter got thedate of Sophie’s birth?“This is one of the most crucialpoints in the entire record,” *aid Mr. Walsh."The cutter must have got it fromthe closest relative,” replied Mr. Morris. “I have no knowledge whoit waB personally.”Mr. Marshall testified he made athorough anarch of old issues of the ("Woodstock Sentinel” to find the tnotice of the marriage.Discrepancy in Initial*Mr. Warrender asked the masterto take into account a discrepancy in ithe notice of marriage where the 1 groom referred to is E. A. Smith and ’not E. 0. Smith. He also contended sif the bride was adopted it would not ibe reasonable to have it worded that 1way in the paper. He argued there >was no conclusive evidence of Sophie’s birth. "There was no knowledge of Sophie by Mrs. Bogenreifuntil Sophie was 11 years old,” commented Mr. Warrender.Mr. Marriott ruled the applicantshad made out a prima facie case which Mr. Warrender’s witnesseswere required to answer.Mrs. Marjory Brant said her father was a first cousin of "Aunt Sophie.” She said she was not animmediate heir. She testified sheknew Sophie after she married, for a little girl “Aunt Sophie” took her inbriefly as her mother had died."Aunt Sophie told me on numerous occasions she was adopted,” said Mrs.Brant. Mr. Gray objected that itwas hearsay evidence. The objec tion was sustained.“Did she say who adopted her?”asked Mr. Gray. “No, but she did say she lived with the Swans in Detroit,” replied Mrs. Brant.“Did she ever tell you she wasmarried at Innerkip?” “No” “Did Gertrude say anything abouther mother Sophie?” “Yes, she repeated what her mother told me of the adoption. She must have heardher mother speak of the adoption,too.” “Did Gertrude refer to Mrs. Bogenreif as, “Aunt Aggy” and Mrs. Elkinaas “Aunt Etty?” "Yes, but I just believed they were company from the States.” '‘They didn’t tell you they were descended from the same line?”"Children don't talk about thosethings,” said Mrs. Brant. Witness said she lived with “Aunt Sophie”for a while and then with the Wardells after'which she went into train ings as > nurse. She said she was present at "Aunt Sophie’s” funeral.“Said Sb* Was Adopted” William Smith testified he was afirst cousin on his father’s side. Hesaid he lived with “Aunt Sophie”whan he came to Toronto to find ajob. "We talked about her beingnearly like me as I was nearly adopted,” said Mr. Smith. She believed adopted children aren’t the bestthing. She said she was adopted.”Mr. Smith said he was at all thefunerals of Aunt Sophie’s children.Dr. Hazel Edna Smith, a firstcousin, said she knew of the Perrygirls in Chicago when she went there. She testified she was told by"Aunt Sophie" about them. Shesaid as a little girl she knew Aunt Sophie was brought up with thePerry’s. “Sophie was no relation,and she told me she had an unhappychildhood,” said Dr. Smith. Donald W. Doyle, attorney fromNew Orleans, told the master thatMrs. Elkins was 91 and is “too infirm” to be present for examination.
