J. Morrison of Ingersoll, pointed out, however, that this rep­resents complete cost of the buildingand equipment and it is believed that some equipment in the old schoolwill be used. The building would include a double gymnasium whichwould also serve as an auditoriumto benefit the whole districtOn the basis of the 1951 assess­ment, percentage of costs would bedivided thus: Ingersoll, 51.19; EastNissouri, 17.41; North Oxford, 16.- 18; West Oxford, 8.6 .and WestZorra, 6.62. Assessment changes would change these percentages. Theprovincial government agrees to pay75 per cent up to $630,000 and the five municipalities pay the balance.Mr. Fred Shelton, board chairman, told the meeting that in another year it will be necessary to rentmore room for the school, and said that the furnaces will have to be replaced.West Oxford Council has alreadyagreed to their share while NorthOxford and Ingersoll will have to pass the formal resolution at coun­cil meetings. Once this is done, Ing­ersoll, the municipality where theschool is located, may seek tentativeapproval from the Municipal Board for the issuing of deben­tures. If this Is given, an architectwill draw up .plans to be submitted to the Department of Education forapproval. The next step will be acall for tenders by the Board. If atender is accepted by the Board, the a cost set, the matter is again sub­ mitted to the Municipal Board fora definite approval.It is pointed out that it is possiblefor the vote of the majority ofcouncils of the area, to carry thequestion but it is hoped that theagreement will be unanimous.

Everybody Watches Nobody Envies Tower Workers There were a couple of chaps working in the sunlight and breeze Tuesday evening after most of us were relaxing in the airless shadow. They were John Wiens and Donald Uebele of Kitchener, who were put- ing up the big now television aerial atop the McKim Hardware stores and their cool, bright perch was nearly 100 feet above the ground. Johnny Wiens is a chap who isvery proud of his work, which forsome time has been the erection of such permanent towers. Though 18guy jwires will control the sway of the McKim tower in high winds,Johnny maintains it would standwithout them. He proudly relates that in a recent bad storm in. the To­ronto area, .when over 200 televis­ion towers came down, not one of their type fell. The boys started early Tuesdaymorning to set up the big tower which stands about 75 feet abovethe store roof. Of welded construct­ ion, it is formed of ten foot lengthswhich they raised by hand. Themast has permanent antenna for onechannel and an all-band, controlledby a roto-motor. It was nearly dark when they finished'the involved con­struction. The workers attracted lots of at­ tention as they climbed agiley aboutthe slender tower. They appear fromthe ground to be very daring, but actually are very careful, for asJohnny says, “You only have tomake one mistake at that height.”They wear safety belts and take carethat they are in good shape for often their lives could depend on thatpiece of leather. The night hawks, evidently dis­ turbed by the men inhabiting airthat is usually strictly theirs, swooped about them as they worked. Ail set with glossy whiskers for thetown’s birthday, three members of Ing­ersoll’s Pipe Band proved attractive tothe ladies at the annual ConcentratedMilk Producers’ Picnic at SouthsidePark, Woodstock, last week. Piper Bob More Local Boys For ’Burg Team Ingersoll will be sending practical­ ly a whole hockey team to Tillson- burg this coming season. It is re­ ported this week that Bummer Con­ nor, Doug MacDonald and Chief Henhawke will join their fellow Ingersollites Bob Collins and Jack Lewis there when the hockey season opens this fall. The boys will be playing Interme­diate “A”.Ingersoll's hockey picture does notlook too bright at the moment, accord­ing to Recreation Commission presi­dent Ross Fewster. The question ofhiring a hockey coach is under the consideration of the Commission, how­ever and by the time the ice is in thearena Drospccts may be better. C anadian W a y Best Most Beautiful Too Collins and Drummers Mike Hominickand Art Presswell are pictured givinglessons in the drum-playing art to MissNancy McCaig and Miss MargaretLewis. The girls, accomplished accordi-anists, took part in the programme. BROTHER, SISTER MEET AFTER 27 YEARS Mrs. Gertrude Hilts, 81 Kingstreet east, Ingersoll, and her sister,Miss Minnie Dempster, Newmarket,Ont., have left for a month's vaca­ tion with their brother and sister,Mr. Herb C. Hughes and Mrs. L.Wiley, in Winnipeg, Man.Mrs. Hiltz has not seen herbrother in 27 years. Another sister, Mrs. Mary Halliday, Biggar, Sask.,will also meet them in Winnipeg. A combined business and pleasuretrip took Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Henderson, Francis street, to PrinceAlbert, Saskatchewan, early thismonth, and they are back full of the interesting sights of the 5000 milejourney.Leaving this part of Ontario in the midst of the terrific early heatwave, they found that at Matheson,they had to scrape a good coating of frost from their car [windows in themorning and for some time early inthe day the car heater was verywelcome. The trip through NorthernOntario to the Manitoba border was a revelation of the size of our pro­vince to Mrs. Henderson. Her hus­band, who had made the trip be­fore, was impressed with the im­provement in the condition of thehighway and reported that for only C.I.O. COMM U N ITY PICNIC VOTED THE BEST YET Some 800 young people boarded the community picnic train for PortStanley Saturday. The youngestwas Harold Noad, three months old; the oldest young people wereMrs. T. Brunskill 83, and Albert Turk, 77. During the trip everyonewas treated to chocolate bars, pea­nuts and other treats. The finesttreat of all was the friendship andgoodfellowship that was every­ where.At the picnic the large refreshmentbooth was the centre of attraction. The Ingersoll St John’s Ambulanceboys were on duty. The IngersollPipe Band was there. These boysstole the show and were a majorpart of the picnic. Many spent part of the day on the beach and board­walk. Everyone returned homesafely at 10 p-m.The picnic was under the chair­manship of Art Nunn and Russell Sage, with Garnet Elliott, assisted bymembers of Locals 2918 and 8683 United Steelworkers.The race results follow:Girls, 4 and under, 1, MaryPoyntz; 2, Betty Thomas; 3, Sue Smith; boys, 4 and under, 1, FrankieHoughton; 2, Kenny Finucin; 3,David Haycock; girls, 6 and under, 1, Pat Chambers; 2, Sharon Sharpe; DATE BOOK (By Ingersoll Recreation THURS-, JULY 24—Motion pictures at Victoria Park at dusk, sponsor­ed by Recreation Commission.

Once 132,000 acres, the ranch now comprises 33,000 acres.There is a museum there, full of the history of the pioneer days of Can­ada’s west. Some of the exhibits thatcaught their attention were a two- wheel cart used in 1876 by the im­migrants to the Red River Valley,Indian teepees and a set of lockedantlers. Mr. Henderson reports that cropson the prairies looked wonderfuland that if growing conditions re­main good, the western farmers should have a fine year. They notedthat as they began their trip seedingwas under pray in the Hearst dis­ trict, and on their return at Sarnia,harvest had begun. There is a sur­ prising amount of fanning west ofCochrane, a great deal of it done byFinnish immigrants who are used to farming inside the Arctic circle.Other signs of the busy Ontarionorthlands were the huge log booms on the rivers.Mr. and Mrs. Henderson madeexcellent time on their trip, leavingToronto on Friday, reaching Winni­peg Monday morning and Moose Jaw the following day at noon. They returned by the U. S. route, butMr. Henderson found while theroads were better on the whole, it was hard to make time on thecrowded highways. He feels thatthe Canadian route has much more to offer in the way of scenery andsaid that the piece of Trans-Canada highway between Beardmore andNipigon alone was well worth thetrip. The rugged beauty of this country is exemplified in one sectionwhere the highway passes betweencliffs of solid rock from 100 to 150 feet in height on one side and skirtsthe lake on the other. Mrs. Edwin George Has 90th Birthday Putnam—Mrs. Edwin George cel­ ebrated her 90th birthday on July 16th, at the home of her eldest daugh­ ter, Mrs. Rainsford Johnston Sr. of Crampton. Her family spent a very happy evening with her, bringing gifts, lots of love and good wishes.Mrs. George was born at Cramp­ton, 1862 and has lived at her homeat Putnam since her marriage, Feb.9th, 1882. Her husband passed awayNov. 21st 1913.There were 12 children, 2 eons,James and Charles having passedaway in 1914 and 1918. There are25 grandchildren and 44 great grand- CMauHXL No Accidents For Five Years J Is Quarry Record The Ingersoll quarry of the North American Cyanamid CompanyLimited, completed five accident- free years on July 11th. This is anexceptional record for any companyand particularly noteworthy in an industry that most would considera dangerous one. The local planthave 80 employees and they handleabout half a million tons of rockeach year. In reaching this mark, the Com­pany has won awards from theNational Safety Council, the Manu­facturers’ Chemists AssociationInc., and the Industrial Accident Prevention Association. It is expect­ed that safety plaques will be pre­sented by tne company president, Mr. F. S. Washburn later this year. CURDS and WHEY Record of Service d Is Big 8 History i By Yvonne Holmes “The Big 8 favors no creeds, toler­ates no .politics, plays no favorites —all men are brothers.” With that motto it is no wonder that the Big 8Society of Ingersoll is one of thetown's most respected organizations. It is to be regretted that todaythe majority think of the Big 8 only in connection with May 24 — a daywhich they have devoted to the child­ren of Ingersoll for many, many years. The organization, like ourtown, was founded by good, honest, reliable, hard-working men. Organ­ized in the early days of World WarI, there were 24 members, with twoaims. Their first concern was tokeep the men at the Fronts in touchwith their home-town and to keepthem well-supplied with cigarettes.Their second objective was a bettercommunity spirit.The original plan was to have three delegates from each of eightlocal fraternal societies — the Inde­pendent and Canadian Order of Odd­fellows, Ancient, Canadian, Indepen­dent and Catholic Orders of Fores, ters, Knights of Columbus and Sonsof England. Through the years rep­ resentatives were added from theAncient Order of United Workmen,Orange Lodge and Great War Vet­erans Association.Sam Gibson was the first president and other early members were BillWright, Squire Moyer, Austin Gran­ger (treasurer for many years), BillEnglish, Lawrence Pickard, R. B.Hutt, J. V. Buchanan, Hugh Moon and W. E. Shipton.Recalling some of the early years of the organization Mr. Buchanannoted the Big 8 often resembled adebating society "especially if Bill Wright or Larnie Pickard didn’tfavor the project the debate would be loud and long.” However, once aproject was favored by the majority,there was complete harmony.The Big 8 has supported manyimportant projects in the town, in­ cluding stirring the town’s interest informing a band with their “We wanta Band” campaign and renovation of the old Partlo pond into MemorialPark. The still - talked - about Old Boys Reunion in August of 1924 wassponsored by the Big 8. This wasone of their most successful and well- known ventures. Members of theorganization who were on committees for the reunion were: M. J. Comis-key, S. A. Gibson, George P. Burns,Hugh Moon, R. Borrowman, H. Johnston, T. C. Hamill, W. W. Wil-ford, James Knapp, F. Manzer, C.Graydon, J. Brebner, R. Windram, T.Dales, W. Gemmill, F. Carey, W.English, R. Shamberg, W. J. Row­ land, J. T. Fitzgerald, Squire Moyer,W. Young, L. Pickard, R. Richard­son, A. Fuller, W. Crellin, GeorgeFisher, N. Henderson, T. Thompson,W. Wright, H. Leigh, P. Henderson, C. H. Brown, Austin Grainger, C.Davies, F. Brewer, J. Adams, A. S.Ferguson, T. Hagan, H. C. Ross, R. J. Robertson, W, R. Smith, H. F.Boyse, William Ryan, W. A. C. Eor- man, J. V. Buchanan, H. G. Hall,John E. Gayfer, George H. Mason,W. I. Thomas and W. H. Sutherland. During their years of service theBig 8 has collected thousands andthousands of dollars, all used to bene­fit the town and its citizens. The or­ganization has reason to be proud that to their knowledge no deservingperson or fund has ever failed to re­ceive their support. Members who are still with us to­day are unanimous in the opinionthat Sam Gibson was greatly respon­sible for the success of the Big 8. The organization has never failed to see that no needy family in Inger­soll went without a basket of “Christ­mas Cheeif’. Mr. Buchanan, a for­ mer Mayor of Ingersoll, remarked“It was wonderful each year to watch the men of the Big 8 preparing thebaskets and delivering them to thosein need. Austin Grainger was al­ways a leader in this worthy pro­ject’’ The Big 8 gave its full support tothe first Victory Loan drive and iscredited with a great deal of its suc­cess. They have also given support tothe Pipe Band. There is no doubt that the Big 8is one of the finest examples of the"Love thy Neighbour” policy. Themembers through the years havegiven unstintingly of their time, effort and service. Their originalpatriotic reason for formation waschanged to the hope that by continu­ing their efforts they could draw mentogether and promote a closer spiritof co-operation between the employersand employees of Ingersoll. To-day the Big 8 has about 12active members. Representativesfrom the Kiwanis Club and Canad­ ian Legion have been added. SquireMoyer is now the president and JohnDougall secretary. The organization now limits its activities to the 24th ofMay celebrations and the Christmas cheer boxes to Ingersoll's older resi­dents.Thus young and old still benefit today from the organization formed37 years ago, Two Speakers Address Meetings Of Junior Farmers . The Ingersoll Junior Farmers met at the home of Miss Donna Edwardson Thursday evening with a good at­tendance. This was a separate meet­ ing and the girls had for theirspeaker, Miss Betty Crawford ofIngersoll’s Library. She was intro­duced by Mrs. Rae Hutcheson . andspoke on "Books We Like to Read’’.Miss Donna Edwards thanked her.The boys had for their speakerBruce Rhitmer, of Waterloo, one ofthe 1950 judging team that were sent to Scotland and England. He wasintroduced by Rusg Dickout and gavean interesting talk while showingfilms on his trip. He was thankedby Currie Way. The roll call was answered with aproduct from the British Isles. On motion of Dorthy Way and WallisHammond, Kay Hutcheson was ap­pointed press reporter. Recreation was in charge of Mrs.Rae Hutcheson and a vote of thankswas extended by Rae Hutcheson toMrs. Edwards and Donna for open­ing their home. Lunch was served by the hostess assisted by EleanorPost, Bill and Hazel Wilson. The meeting next month will be inthe form of a picnic at the Sand By Irma Hatt There is no doubt about it TheMaude Wilson Memorial Pool is thebusiest place in town. General atten­ dance is way up and the instructorsalready can claim a record. In thefirst two weeks this year they gave 3170 lessons. Two yearn ago, forthe whole nine weeks of instruct­ ion, the figure was 4000. So far this month there have been three daysthat have topped previous, records of404 in one day. In two weeks too, over 50 junior beginners became swimmers. It’s a busy place—and ahappy place, and those in charge are to be congratulated on keepingit so. Tomorrow night the Ingersollswimmers will meet Tillsonburg inthe summer's first competition andon the whole, our chances look good.Unfortunately, Bob Sinclair, one of the team’s big hopes, wrenched aknee and will be out of competitionfor a while. Despite the fact that Fred Arnottof the Free Press ignored the factthat Ingersoll Is celebrating* its100th birthday this year, 1 he re­mains one of our favourite column­ists. What descriptions! Did younotice that one telling of the Scot­tish dance, “The Reel ’o Tulloch - -I "being more like a cross between agavotte and stepping on a toad inyour bare feet.” Aylmer Accident Takes Life Of District Resident A motor accident on Saturdaynight took the life of Orrie Quacken­ bush of R|R| 6, Aylmer, brother ofFayette Quackenbush of Ihgersoll.The car-truck collision occurred atAylmer during a violent thunder­ storm.

He died at the scene ofthe accidentNorma Rickwood was taken toMemorial Hospital, St Thomas, with bruises and shock. Mrs. Rickwoodand Mrs. Quackenbush were treatedat the scene for similar injuries and Rickwood received first aid forknee cute. Mr. Quackenbush was born at Madison, Ont, but had lived in theAylmer district most of his life, and worked as a farm labourer. Heserved overseas with the R.C.R. forthree and a half years in World War LI. He was a son of Mr. andMrs. J. F. Quackenbush, R.

R. 5, Aylmer; Mrs. Mary Mc-Knight, Matheson, and Mrs. AnnieFife, Haileybury.The funeral took place Tuesday inAylmer. Mrs. A. G. Hall is just back from a visit with relatives in the CanadianWest and made us envious with des­ criptions of cool, pleasant weather,when a coat was sure to be neededin the evenings, if not during the day. That was in Victoria, whereMrs. Hall spent the first part of her holiday. Later when she went up the island to Duncan and other points,she found the sort of hot weather we are having. On her return, sheI stopped over at Winnipeg for * fewdays. This was Mrs. Hall’s first tripby air and she thoroughly enjoyed the speed and comfort of this meansof travel. IThese are the days when our streets are full of tourists and wewelcome them whole-heartedly.Heard the other day of one lady from the U-S. who put her name in■ shop guest register and then glan­ced back over the names already recorded, to discover that her sis­ter-in-law had visited the same Ing­ersoll store a few days earlier. We noted an Alaska license one even­ing and the occupants of the car,who were evidently seeking refresh­ ment, looked so hot that they nodoubt were gloating over thoughts of their earlier winter. Our weatherthis year has been hard enough forus to take. It must be a shock to those American visitors who expectto find the movie-version Canada of[ice and snow. ifiappij B ttljiia y House Destroyed But Bam Saved In Saturday Fire Harrieteville-Fire Saturday after­noon,' completely destroyed thehouse on the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Manners on the 9th conces­sion of South Dorchester.

Thia is a subject extremely worthy of study and we com­ mend the idea. But, we wonder, why go all the way to Idaho? Right here in Oxford, we could offer Number 19 to Tillsonburg a« an all-too- perfeet example of potholed, heaved and broken highway.Of course, we must admit, something has been done to parte of that strip rcently. Some sort of a surface has been put on and hopeful rumour has it that this is only the beginning. Even if it is confirmed that this haa been the first step to­ ward a smooth, easy riding road, we doubt that the fact will be of much comfort to those who have had windshields cracked, car bodies dented and nerves set a-twitch by flying atones from the rough surface. It is to be hoped that Idaho provides the ans­ wer. It would be pleasant to pick up the weekly road bulletin and NOT read “No. 19, rough— Tillsonburg to Mount Elgin.” LOOKING BACKIn the File* ofThe Ingersoll Tribane Ingersoll - Ontario Mutual Leaderffongred Canadian Weekly Newspspers’ Associatioi Member Audit Bureau of Circulations What Others Say In the U. S. - *3.80 Authorised as second class mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa THURSDAY, JULY 24, 1S62 A Job Well Done Mrs. R. L. Smith, whose resignation as superin­ tendent of Alexandra Hospital was announced last week, will be greatly missed in Ingersoll. She assumed her duties as superintendent in January, 1945 and has been most successful in the demand­ ing and difficult position. She was born at Oil City, Ontario the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Mott. Following gradu­ ation from Victoria Hospital, London, she went to Ann Arbour, Michigan for special work in surgical nursing, and after about two years in the nursing profession, married Dr. R. L. Smith of Forest, Ontario. It was following his death, that Mrs. Smith (With her son Robert and daughter Carol, came to Ingersoll. In her years in the old Alexandra Hospital, Mrs. Smith, in addition to her other duties, assumed all the work in radiology. Since the new hospital opened, her duties have been more of an adminis­ trative nature, but «he has always been on call for operating room duty. Mrs. Smith is sincere in her appreciation of the co-operation of the Hos­ pital Trust and their assistance in the adminis­ trative work. For the nurses and other staff mem­ bers too, she has highest praise. The support of the Hospital Auxiliary has made possible much of her work. Mrs. Smith has had little time during her resi­ dence here, to take part in other town activities and organizations. She has been, however, a val­ ued member of the choir of St Paul's Presbyter­ ian Church. Bob and Carol too, have made a place for themselves in the younger circles. Mrs. Smith and Dr. M. C. Fletcher of Exeter, plan to marry later this summer and the good wishes of Ingersoll will go with them to their home there. Uninterrupted Vista Ontario’s Highways are free of conglomerations of tattered billboards, and the Ontario Department of Highways is’to be greatly congratulated upon the restrictions imposed. The horrible mass of advertising that greets the visitor to the United States is in no way a tourist attraction and is a sufficient deterrent in itself to stop a person from travelling there. We have just finished a 500-mile drive.to Mus- koka and are very happy to report that at no time was our view of the Ontario countryside obstruct­ ed by a nauseating mess of advertising. Only thoroughly approved billboards set well back from the road and kept in good repair are permitted in Ontario, and these are allowed in such few numbers that the scenery is no way harmed. Jokes about people going for a drive and seeing nothing but billboards have no bitter application in Ontario and it is a thing for which we are thankful. There is much beautiful scenery and there are many beautiful drives in this province. Under long-range planning, the Department is getting Ontario’s roads into excellent shape. Extension of the queen Elizabeth Way to the east of To­ ronto will greatly increase the number of cars and tourists coming in the direction of Napanee. Along with that, the fact that tourists are not con­ tinually, exhorted to purchase a specific shaving cream, beer or chocolate bar will, when the great project is completed, make this section of Eastern Ontario about the finest place in the world to come for a happy hoilday trip.—The Napanee Post-Ex­ press.

Henderson, andRobert McMurray on behalf ofemployees. the Constructive Advertising A number of Ontario weeklies have just com­ pleted a series of advertisements sponsored by the Steel Company of Canada Limited. These ads did not deal with the steel industry as such, but with current economic problems, and were de­ signed to give Canadians a better understanding of economic forces which govern our way of life. Economic authorities agree that the threat of inflation in Canada is still very real. Despite fall­ ing retail prices, falling industrial production and the highest industrial wages *n our history, there are still strikes and the threat of strikes. Can­ adians need, as never in our history, to understand the economic problem. The''Steel Company therefore, is to be con­ gratulated upon- the public service they have rendered in this series of thought-provoking ad­ vertisements. No Apologies Needed Local storekeepers last week began discounting American dollars after the exchange rate reached upwards of four per cent. This, of course, is only as it should be. The shoe has been on the other foot for plenty long enough. Some tourists don’t appreciate the situation and one can sympathize with them for the “come-down” it appears to be. However, Canadians, and indeed everyone else in the world, have had to kow-tow to the almighty dollar for a great while nqw, and if the fact be­ comes established that the American * is just another good world currency, subject to fluctua­ tions that might at times make it worth less than some other currencies, maybe some good will re­ sult It’s no good for anyone when one team in the league wins all the time. Just across the border, however, they still re­ fuse to believe in our bills. It is reported that on one day last week when Canadian merchants were charging five per cent on American dollars, Buf­ falo and Cleveland shopkeepers were chargingAen per cent on Canadian funds. Earl Lumley tells of tendering a Canadian *10 bill at a Cleveland establishment The waitress gave it the fishy stare and then asked: "What’s this, some kind of trav­ eller’s cheque?”—The Beamsville Express.

The records wait.And in track-field, they don’t wait too long. Oldsters claim that athletes of this era aren’t as good as the men of yore, but you can’t prove it by track-field performances.Indeed, the way running and jumping records tumble these daysit almost is not worth the effort to go out and set them.— It hasgotten so that a man no longer can run a 10.2 100-«neters and ex­pect his mark to last very long. Jesse Owens, rated the fastest humanof all time, back in the ’30’s, found that out when he set his World's Record in 1936. Since then five other sprinters have equaled his figures; Harold Davis of the United States (1941), Lloyd La-Beach of Panama and Barney Ewell, United States (1948), Mac­Donald Bailey Trinidad (1951), and Herbert Thompson, UnitedStates (1939). The oldest individual record on the books, except some walkingrecords (and that form of sport has just about gone by the board*)and a few of the longer metric distance events, is Glenn Hardin'* 400-meter hurdles clocking at 50.6s. It was set in 1934, and haa for18 years, at the time these lines were written, withstood assault* up­on it. Most of the other existing World Records were set in the late’40’s or early ’50’s. There was a time within memory whaa aa «vea 10was considered brilliant time for the 100 yards dash. Than it wascut by a fifth of a second, then by two-fifths, when Arthur F. Duf­ fey sped over the cinders in 9 3-6, around the turn of th* century.But today, that time would hardly qualify in a boat. Mel Patton cutthe time to 9 3-10, which may not sound to the uninitiated like agigantic reduction. But at that speed a difference of three-tenths of a second means almost three yards. The 100 metres dash at the first Olympic revival in 1896 was12 seconds. Tommy Burke of the United States won it. At the lastOlympics a slim Negro, Harrison Billiard, won in 10.3, a differ­ence of 16 yards. It’s hardly believeable. The boys haven’t hit the 4-minute mile yet, but they will, anytime now. It took some time to carve the record down to G underHaegg’s 4.01.4. The amateur record 4.19.8 set by W. G. George of England in 1881, stood for 22 years, when America’s John PaulJones lopped it to 4.16.4. Then everybody got at it. Norman Taber,Paavo Nurmi the inscrutable Finn, Ladoumegue of France, Cun­ningham of the U.S.; Stanley Wooderron of England, all carvednew marks. Then came Haegg, to eclipse al] previous performances. That was seven yean ago. The time is ripe for a new record, at theclassic distance. So it goes. Ar* man growing faster, stronger, or I* it th* sup­erior coaching, th* more systematic and scientific training? Perhapsit’s th* latter. We imagine so. Whatever it Is, track-field recordsindicate that moderns do most things Utter than did timir hardyforebesu^.

Insurance Benefit 'Rates IncreasedTwo of the recent amendments tothe Unemployment Inmrance Act,those Increasing rates of benefit andreducing the waiting period, cameinto force, by proclamation, on July14. The top rate of benefit paid to aperson entitled to the dependency rate will be $4.00 a day and, for asingle person $2.85 a day. These were $3,50 and $2.70 respectively.The increased rates and the re­duction in waiting days apply only to days of unemployment that occuron or after July 14. These amend­ment* were recommended to theGovernment by the UnemploymentInsurance Commission and the Un­employment Insurance AdvisoryCommittee.Before the amending Bill waspassed the maxium benefit whichcould be paid to a person with a de­pendent was $21.00 a week. Thisis increased to $24.00. On a daily basis, the increase is from $3.50 to$4.00. The other classes of benefit,except the two lower classes, showcomparable increases. It was feltthat in the case of the two lower classes benefit was as high as poss­ible without resulting in the dangerof over-insurance.Under the Unemployment Insur­ance Act there is what is known asa waiting period. This waiting per­ iod follows an application for ben­efit and occurs at the beginning of each benefit year. It has, in thepast, consisted of eight days duringwhich no benefit was paid. Also, at the beginning of each period of un­employment, there is ,what is known as “one non-compensable day.” Thismade a total of nine days. The re­sult of the amendment will be thatno benefits are payable for the firstweek after a person files a claimrather than for the first nine days as at present. BEACHVILLE •By Mrs. W.

A HEALTHY BODY/ By John F. McRae, D.C. The Chiropractor’s Creed is tolocate the root of the illness, then apply the adjustments to the nervecentre. The nerves, as the Chiro­practic science points out. are the focal point for most of the ills ofthe human body. For instance, sup­pose the Chiropractor upon examin­ation, locates the illness in thestomach. He knows immediatelywhere the nerves are pressed uponto produce that condition. He locatesthat part of the spine and finds howthat pressure is produced. Then hereplaces the small bones in theirnatural position and when this is accomplished the trouble no longerexists.However, a nerve does not need tobe cut to lose part of its ability tocarry life force. If it is squeezed at any point along its course, the lifeforce will be cut off In just thatproportion. This is exactly what happens to produce disease andsickness.The Chiropractor’s work is done by his hands and the small bones areadjusted back into their proper pos­ition for the purpose of relievingthe pressure on the nerves. Thiscorrects the real cause of the disease and it is for this reason the Chiro­practor’s patients get well and staywell.One of a series of articles pub­lished in the people's interest to ex­plain and illustrate the practice ofscientific chiropractic written by:JOHN F.McRAE, D.C.

Underground CableWill Provide ForBetter Phone Service The work of putting the telephone cable underground is going on thisweek in the Mount Elgin-Salfordarea and the “tractor-train” equip­ ment for the job is attracting muchattention. The train js a series of machines, hooked together to do thework more or less in one operation.First the ditch (a dug, with an aver­ age depth of two and a half feet.The cable is fed through the (plow for laying in the ditch and the finalstep is to cover the cable.Actually the cable laying is one of the last steps in the whois job.There is a great deal of engineering involved in laying out the course.Right of way must be obtainedfrom the owners of property to be crossed and from the Department ofHighways. Fences must be takendown—and replaced, and if a sownfield is crossed, the farmer is paidfor the amount of his crop lost. The cable is marked every sooften by posts so that anyone plan­ning to excavate for any reason mayknow its exact location. From themain cable there will be cut-offs for each house. Some of these willbe above ground, and others will beburied, depending on the local con­ditions. (Mr. Gordon Raider, manager ofthe Bell Telephone Company told the Tribune that the work will pro­vide not only a replacement ofcable, but additonal facilities for new subscribers. The lines in thearea have been too heavily burdened and the new cable will make pos­sible re-grouping of lines with feweron each line as well os service formany who have been unable to get it The result will be better servicefor everyone in the area. Material shortages have delayedthe job which had been planned forsome time. It should be completed by fall.At the same time outdoor booths.will be set up at Salford and Mount Elgin for service on the highway.

F Johnston, Forester,Miller Lake, Ontario * A Peeled Birch Tree Defaced it stands: I do not knowyour name. Who peeled this birch-bark tree, butoh, the shame,You wanted on a bit of bark to sendA maudlin little message to afriend?To make a napkin ring or some suchtrash?And so with pocket-knife you needs must gashA ghastly wound, and peel a birch­ bark tree..Out of my thoughts, 0 you, whoe’eryou be!—Margart Clarke Russel Few trees in the Province of On­tario are as beautiful as the paperbirch; it is unfortunate that somany of them along our highways,lakes and streams have been strip­ ped of their bark.The thin papery bark protects thetree from drying out and from at­tack by insects and disease. Whenthe bark is peeled off, the inner parts of the tree are exposed toto these enemies which often causedeath. Even if the tree does not die its beauty is marred forever.Birch bark is used in craft work and if you require it for this pur­pose obtain your supply from a woodpile where no harm can be done.Although the birch is not ourmost valuable timber tree it does have many commercial uses andwhen its scenic beauty is also con­sidered, it deserves better treatment than it is getting at present.Next time you are in the out-of- doors with the children, take a fewminutes and explain to them justhow serious a mistake it is to peel the birches.

Fish Pole Makes Good Lightning Rod Information concerning an ap­proved method of avoiding being struck by a bolt of lightning whencaught far out on the water has beenreceived by Department of Lands and Forests officials, Toronto.A Texas University professor, B.N. Gafford, has been experimenting to find the beat ways and means forfishermen and others to avoid con­tact with the fearful bolts of elec­ trical energy that are released fromthe clouds during a storm. He says that the best way is to get ashorebefore the storm strikes. But, if thisis not possible, the following pre­cautions should be taken:Attach a metal fishing rod to theside of the boat so that the handle is in constant contact with the waterand the tip projected vertically in the air above the heads of the boat’soccupants. However, whether themakeshift lightning arrester is in place or not, it is best to lie downin the boat so that the body is be­ low the gunwales (edges of thecraft.)Lightning, the professor states, is discharged frojn cloud to ground orto the closest object between thecloud and the ground. A fisherman, fishing from a boat on a river wherethe banks extend above the boat, may be comparatively safe, butanglers caught out where shore linesare distant would be in danger. Summer storms come up withstartling swiftness in Ontario, Landsand Forests officials warn, and fewpersons are equipped to fortell theirapproach. Trolling can, however, be indulged in with greater safety than otherwise frhen the fisherman knowsthat his prize metal rod can be used as a lightning arrester.And remember, too, that if theboat is upset by the storm . . . stickto it. Tic yourself to it if possible.But don't try to swim to shore! Flags that have never Appeared Before Officially in Canada are included in this display to be used during'the XVIIIth International Red Cross Conference in Toronto July 23rd-August 9th. Representing 77 nations and prin­cipalities and the United Nations, the flags will be used with name plates on desks to quickly and easily identifyeach delegation during conference sessions. Emblems new to Canada include those of Byelo-Russia, the Peo­ ple’s Popular Republic of China and North Korea. Theflags are the handiwork of Colonel and Mrs. George Yanovsky of Toronto.

L The idea of growing better cannot i be confined to one nation, though of ’ course it will show itself more in one , way than in another. Nor can it be described only in terms of happi- i ness, because idiots are happierthan geniuses. The only way tothink reasonably of progress in hu­man life is by considering it as in­ creasing control of our environment—of all the things which affect therealization of our desires. As Will Durant put it in TheMansions of Philosophy: “Progressis the domination of chaos by mind and purpose, of matter by form andwill.” fIn this sense the world is growing better. Many ills of yesterday havepassed away. The total and averagelevel of human ability has increased, and stands at its peak today. When we take a total view, com­paring our existence in 1952 with the ignorance, superstition, brutal­ity and diseases of primitive people, we are a little comforted, even SEE - - ROSS C.

An additional18 road and switch engines will be delivered before this • fall to completely dieselize the area. lowering of death rates and the pro­longation of life: the science ofmedicine, more and better food,sanitary living conditions, and alightening of work. Authors of ail works on the sub­ject, says the United Nations report,are agreed that the impressive re­ duction of mortality rates in theEuropean cultural sphere since the eighteenth century has been duelargely to the great improvement inthe economic position of the people. Industrialization, commercial de­velopment, and the increasing effic­ iency of agriculture provided theeconomic basis for more abundantand more healthful living and for the advances in public health andmedicine which made the presentlow mortality rates possible. The Western World The progress—not only in healthbut in many other areas of life—dur­ ing the past couple of centuries has'been worked by men and women inthe western world, and is beingpassed along by them in individualand collective action to still under­ privileged countries.It is imrporant that not only lead­ers but all the people should know what it is the West has to offer inits way of life, its conquest of pov­erty, its high standard of education,and its diminution of disease.What the We^t has discovered, says Bertrand Russell in his bookNew Hopes for a Changing World,though as yet the realization is in­ complete, is a method by which prac­tically everybody can have as much of materia! goods as is conducive tohappiness, without excessive hoursof labour, and with that degree of mental culture that is needed tomake leisure delightful.This state, brought about by the fact that one man’* work can nowproduce much more than is requiredfor one man’s subsistence, is not yet perfect.

Salads Popular For Centuries "Sallettc” is an old name for salad, a. favourite dish hundreds ofyears ago. It is said that RomanEmperors were served dressed let­tuce on plates of gold, with radisheasliced so thin that the gold gleamedthrough. The French and Spanish borrowed the custom of mixinggreens with oils and herbs from theearly Greeks and Italians and they,in turn, brought salads to America.Today, such salads are still favour­ ites and quite often they are tossedor mixed right at the table.It has been said that the aesthe­tic chefs pours his heart and soulinto a salad. Perhaps this is why a salad so often reflects the personal­ity of the person that makes it. A cautious, methodical person will fol­low the recipe to the letter, but onewith an adventurous spirit will ex­periment with everything and any­thing on hand. Some prefer to use simple, familiar ingredients, whileothers will use an exotic mixture ofherbs and spices. There are two schools of thoughtin regard to the preparation of toss­ed salads. One claim only green*should be used, the other that prac­tically any combination of veget­ ables is permissable. It is preferablethat the vegetables should be raw,but cooked, canned or frozen ones may be combined with the fresh.Those who prefer only greens some­ times add onion or pepper rings andthin slices of radish or cucumber forextra flavour. though wo realize tliat life is stillprecarious and chaotic.Here and there we may find peoplewho differ only slightly from the untutored mass of other days, but,above those strata we see many mil­lions who have reached to mental and moral heights of which theprimitive mind never thought.None of us supposes that life in each century is better than in theone before, but if we viqw the hu­man scene as from a great altitude the movement is of that sort. Thestandard of living is far higher now,on the average, than in any previous period of history. Deprecate as somepersons may the age in which welive, yet we are conscious of a cer­ tain pride in the increasing invent­iveness wihch marks our culture, andthe improvement, still all-too-slow,in human relations. Science the Thinker Some persons, of course, look toour modem science for too much.They want all the~woes and ills ofthe world cured immediately by scientific methods. But we must re­flect that man has existed for no oneknows how long. Some say a mil­ lion years. Science and its tech­niques have been with us for onlya couple of hundred years. Any schoolboy in our time can learnmore of the universe than Ptolemyknew, and the most humdrum thesis writer in one of our universities hasmore knowledge at his fingertips than was available to the giantmind of Aristotle.Our ancestors fought plagues withsacrifices to angry gods ,whoroamed the skies astride meteorsand in star-carriages; modem men fight and exterminate plague* byscientific knowldge. Our curiosityhas led us to play with a tea kettle and put into use the power of steam:to mix this and thpt in a retort anddiscover chemistry; to send . a kite into the sky and bring down elec­tricity, The triumphs of science havebeen gained by studying facts, by seeking out the natural law and wor­king in harmony with it. Innumer­able facta of nature which once were merely data are now opportunities. Health One great field where undoubtedprogress has been made is that of health. The period since the begin­ning of the nineteenth century—and especially the 100 years since the middle of that century—are out­standing in history as an era of pro­gress in combating disease and death, and in lengthening the aver­age span of human life.iNowhere has this been shown more dramatically than in a reportpublished in January this year by the United Nations Economic andSocial Council. It is called Findingsof Studies on the Relationships be­ tween Population Trends and Econ­omic and Social Factors. Though knowledge of mortalityconditions in the early centuries ismeagre, it is clear that life was shortin those times. A life table forGreece, prepared from burial in­ scriptions, places the average, lengthof life about 400 B.C. somewhere near 30 years. In the first centuryB.C., the estimated expectation oflife in Egypt was about 22 yearn. In European countries between thethirteenth and thte seventeenth cen­ turies, one might expect to livefrom 20 to 40 years, and in Sweden the eighteenth century life expect­ancy was 33 to 40, yean. These contnst* sharply with thepresent expectancy of fife in Euro­pean countries and in area* inhabit­ed by Europeans overseas, many ofwhich are above 65 yean. The latest table availabl e for Canada (1947)set* our life expectancy at 65.18years for males' and 69.05 yean forfemales. There are various reason* for the Variety of Fish For Ontario Anglers Toronto—With Ontario's fishingseason for bass and masklnonge opened . generally throughout theProvince, anglers, from the smallboy with the string and bent pin tothe most skilful spinner fisherman, will have available for their pleas­ure one of the greatest assortmentsof fresh water fish open for fishinganywhere.Here’s the general list of avail­able fish: Pickerel, pike, brown,speckled, Kamloops, rainbow andlake trout, white fish, herring, rock­bass, sunfish, catfish, carp, suckers,perch, landlocked salmon or ouanan-iche, in addition to the bass and muskies.Bass are found in Georgian Bay and rivers contributing thereto; theKawartha and Rideau Lakes; StLawrence River and Lakes Erie, Huron, Ontario and Nipissing, aswell as in the North Channel ofLake Huron and northwest in the Lake of the Woods region. Maskin-onge distribution extends across theProvince through the Thousand Island, the Trent Valley, Kawarthas,Lakes Scugog and Simcoe, Lake StClair, the Nipissing and Sudbury areas and to the Lake of the Woods.

You can beatthe heat by storing some of the fresh fruits and vegetables in ahome freezer, or a locker at a stor­age plant. Food can be packaged ina quick, convenient and easy methodfor freezing. As a basic rule forpreparation of vegetables remem­ber: blanch one minute, then chilltwo minutes. It is now common practice toprepare the fruits and vegetables which are usually canned if youhave access to freezing space , The stored produce wil have good col­our, flavour and food value whenthe best variety is obtained andgood quality packaging is used. Freezing is not a method of pro­cessing food; it simply preventsgrowth of bacteria. For this reasonplace each filled container in the re­ frigerator then transfer to homefreezer or locker within 4 to 6 hours. Be guided by the directionsof a freezer manufacturer as to howmany boxes to place along the quick freezing tvall of of a home unit, (Wefreeze 8 packages at one time, orwe pay the storage operator for quick freezing large quantities.) TAKE A TIP 1* Select only the best—firm, well-ripened fruits and fresh, tendervegetables for freezing. 2. Certain varieties of vegetables are better suited for freezing thanothers) Burpees, Early Stringless, Tendergreen or Balentine Beans, Broad Leaf Spinach, Thomas Lax­ton or Tall Telephone Peas, Gold- ban or Golden Bantam Corn,Henderson's Lima Beans and LongIsland Brussels Sprouts)3. Among our Ontario fruits, pref­ erence may be given to Cuthbertor Viking .Raspberries, EarlyRichmond or Montmorency Cher­ ries, Lowde Blackberries, Vedetteor Valiant Peaches, Grande Dukeor Prune Plums. 4. Purchase moisture - vapor-proof material. An ideal material shouldalso 'be odorless, tasteless, strong,easy to handle, seal and label. Impregnated wax cartons can be re-used with new liners.5. You can store 38 rectangular pint cartons (with liner) in a cub­ ic foot of space or 16 round tubpints,6. When regular canning jars are used allow a headspace of 1 to1V4 inches at least to preventbreakage, whereas 'boxes of a drypack may be filled leaving '-j inchexpansion. TO FREEZE FRUITS 1. Sort and wash and drain buthandle carefully. ■ 2. Prepare according to the meth­od of serving, Berries may begently rolled through a wide fun- i nel into each 'box with or withoutsugar. We usually-eprinkle in drysugar allowing 1 cup for 4 cups of fruit. Rhubarb may be cut (donot peel) and packed. Cherries tobe eaten fresh should be covered with a 50 per cent syrup; forpies^ mix 1 part sugar to 4 partscherres Peaches and pears re­quire preparing as for canningand covering in 50 per cent syrup(three-quarters of a teaspoon ofascorbic acid crystals in eachquart of syrup wil prevent brown­ ness).3. When a lined box is used,squeeze the top of the envelope together above the fruit to ex­clude air, then fold and seal.4. To heat seal the package: turn a saucepan (of the same height as freezer box) ■upside down. Usethe electric iron with the controlset at Rayon and press over 2folds of the liner. Let stand aminute then fold it to fit box. 5. Label with a grease pencil andplace in freezer or refrigerator;freeze as soon as possible. TO FREEZE VEGETABLES 1. Sort and wash firm vegetables.Prepare as for table use, cutting lengths according to type of free­zing box.2. All vegetables are then blanchedor scalded to keep their colourand stop chemical action. It is important to use only enoughwater to eover and to have thecheesecloth bag or sieve for thevegetables than can be held in the boiling water for the 25 to 45-second period. Keep the bag or sieve moving and also watch theclock during scalding period.3. Cool the hot food quickly in icewater for 2 minutes then drain.4.

MASSEY-HARRIS COMPANY, LIMITED * Aidton of higb-qvofiry form implmmmoie since 1847 £2521Pleasure In RecallOf Tow n’s History In 1924 when Ingersoll held an Old Boys Reunion James SinclairSenior, one of the town’s most distinguished citizens, prepared ahistory. In the dedication, Mr. Sin­clair wrotrf’ . . . Nothing yields somuch pleasure and contributes somuch to real enjoyment as to be able to call up to memory the pre-existingconditions and compare them withthe present and note the advancementmade in every Infe of activity.”In Ingersoll’s centennial year it^iean even greater* pleasure to recallthe town's beginnings and the people who made it possible. From week toweek we will publish parts of Mr. Sinclair’s "History/rf'The Town of Ingersoll.” / Americas Beginnings From American sources we gather the following with reference to theIngersoll family of Colonial days, who were among the most influentialcitizens of that country. It is onrecord that members of the familyheld important positions under BriUish rule. American history informsus that Jared Ingersoll held the im­portant position of the Collectorshipof the Import Tax on tea, at the timeof the occurrence of the historical “Boston Tea Party”, which was afactor of importance in the cause ofthe Revolution which gave the UnitedStates their independence. A son ofthe above, also named Charles Jaredwas described as a statesman, lawyerand author. Still another Jared wasa member of the council who framedthe Constitution of the U.S. and Rob­ert Green Ingersoll, perhaps the mostnoted of the family, while another-was nominated for vice-president ofthe United States. So far as familyrelationship is concerned it would be difficult to find one more satisfactorythan that of the founders of the Townof Ingersoll. Thomas Ingersoll, byhis first wife was the father ofLaura Ingersoll, afterward known byher marreid name of Laura Secord,heroine of our Canadian history. He,Thomas Ingersoll, was married threetimes and was the father of Charlesand James, the latter the first white baby born in Ingersoll. Thomas Ing­ersoll, prior to coming to Canada,was intimately known by GovernorSimcoe and also by Brant, the notedIndian chief. We should also -state here that while Brant was the Titularchief, Chief Abram was in reality the leading spirit of the associatedtribes. It was he who conducted thediplomatic business with the Civiland Military authorities in the U.S.,as well as in Canada, and it was inintimate relationship with those men­tioned that Thomas Ingersoll enteredupon his future career as a Canadiancitizen and as a British subject. It has been said that any settle­ ment of a new county or districttakes its future complexion of citiz­ enship from the first settlers, and itwould be difficult to find an instancewhere the truth of this has been ex­perienced to a greater extent than in the early history of Ingersoll. Andwe do not need to look beyond ourown County of Oxford for another, but differizing in character. It i3 tothis class of citizens we owe much ofour early progress in many lines.

VOLCANO OIL BURNERS There Is another matter with respect •to Thomas Ingersoll which would not ’be pertient at the present time, but 1 to which we may refer later. 'We now enter upon the severely 1 pioneer period. Have we of the pre- 1 sent day ever asked ourselves what ’would be the condition of mind of the jmen and women who first entered an 1 unbroken wilderness, to hew out for 1 themselves and their family, their ’home and existence? If ever a class 1of men and women deserved to have 1 free <land, it was the early pioneers Iof thia country. And yet how fewcomparatively, failed to reach a con 1 dition of homely comfort While we 1admit the early hardship which the 'pioneer had to encounter, we must not 'overlook the compensating circum. 1 stances which always existed in the *friendly and neighborly assistance 1under all conditions that rendered i such necessary, placing him under Ino other obligation than the return 'of the same when the occasion came. <Settlement took place 8lowly until i1800 and after the second decade the lvillage of Ingersoll could be said to 1be established. Our situation on the < river trail at the point where the In- 'dians had for centuries in their jour- Ineyings left the river trail and direc- <ted their course south east in a <straight line toward Brantford, being ilocated for military purposes as an <outpost of the Jicad Quarters of 'Brant on the Grand River, by Lieut.- . Gov. Simcoe. First Settlers Of those Americans who came atthat period and made themselves use- jful citizens, Elisha Sall was early on 1 the scene and erected the first saw- • mill on the site of the former oat­meal mill M the Stuarts’, and also an_ 1 other saw-mill on the present site of ’ Mr. Smith’s mill, which was burned 1 down. W. A. Rumsey established our J first foundry, which was operatedafterwards by Mr. W. Eastwood, 1 both of whom were from the U.S. ’Daniel Carroll built the flour mill on 1 Charles Street, after completing the ‘upper dam and pond. Mr. Charles *Parkhurst came shortly after with 1 his carding mill, one of the most |necessary and useful of our local in- J dustries, prior to the coming of which 1 the wives of the pioneers had to hand card the wool and spin theyam for the family use. The spin­ning wheel was later put aside as < Mr. Parkhurst had added spinning {to his carding equipment and ex- tchanged the yam for the fleece wool. tWith still another step in release of (the homestead labor of the wife and <mother, Rumsey and Eastwood oc- (cupied the whole of the site of the ,present Piano Company with the ‘ premises later the property of the jwriter and at present occupied by Mr. ;Flander and Mr. D. Howe. Later } Mr. William Dunn conducted thefoundry and machine shop situatedwhere Butler’s Garage and JohnStaples now are: Mr. Wm. Dunnwa8 a Scotchman but a later partner,Adolphus Urlin, was an American.Another American, William Richard­son, following Dunn apd Urlin, in the same premises and the same businessfor a time. It was there the firststeam engine in Oxford was built. Afterward Mr. Richardson built,and for a short time operated hismachine shop on the present site ofthe English Church, but later tookdown his building and removed it toBothwell, where the oil excitement was prevalent Tom Brown, The Leader Our most prominent and usefulcitizen for many years was an Ameri_ can, Mr. Thomas Brown, a leader inevery enterprise, equally at home in affairs of church and state, proprie­tor of the Tannery, the making ofbetter roads leading to the town was his most prominent and most neces­sary of his public efforts, withmarked benefit to the general pub­lic. He was regarded with that pat­ernal respect which implies acknow­ ledged leadership. The name "TomBrown” was frequently used to de­note leadership, in any enterprise such aa “Who is the Tom Brown ofthis or that scheme or undertaking ”It was Mr. Brown who, as Mayor ofIngersoll, gave the name Victoria toour park. The prominent firm of Americans’.7no had the contract of sawing the Wood on the Great Western Rail­ way, and were considered, deservedly, to be among our best citizens, wascomposed of Messrs. Wood, Root andJudd, who were for many years resi­ dent here, taking an interest in allour institutions, and were prominentmembers of the Oil Co., in the ex_perimental stage of this trade. An_ other family who were of importancein our social fabric were two bro­thers, Henry and Nicholas Taylor, the former an occasional preacherwhile his brother Nicholas was moreretiring in disposition. However,they were speculative and expressedtheir confidence in Ingersoll’s future by erecting a block of buildings onThames Street known as Taylor’sBlock, which made the third brick building on Thames street, the othertwo be(ng the Caledonia Block of JohnMcDonald and the Pomeroy on the Site of the Royal Bank. Anotherimportant operative institution hasbeen established by Mr. G. T. Jar­vis, namely the Distillery, where amuch appreciated beverage was pro­ duced in an excellent class of whis­key, mostly from corn, which serveda wide distribution. Early Communication* Our early means of communication was the stage coach. Mr. Hobson ofWoodstock presented an excellent re­port of the Old Stage Coach Days inOxford County at the meeting of theProvincial Historical Society in 1919.The year 1832 appears to have beenthe first date in this connection and relates the fact .that on the 10th dayof May, 1844, the stage passedthrough Woodstock on sleighs, (caseof a rather late Spring). Mr. Hob-son relates the following which willshow the difference between the earl­ier settlers of Woodstock and those of Ingersoll aa the writer noted in aprevious connection (m his own words). "In the year 1839, Wood-stock had become of much impor- tance, or it imagined so, having manyretired military and naval officersliving in and about it, who, having in­ fluence with the Government, suc- I ceded in having work commenced inthe year 1840 on the road leadingfrom Sydenham to EaaUkood to theGovernor’s Road throu^i Woodstock,Thia road was graded and plankedwith 3 inch pine lumber. It wasfinished in 1843 and for a number ofyears ail traffic passed throughWoodstock, although the old StageRoad was never abandoned. About the year 1847 the planking and grad­ing on the Governor's Road had be­come much worn and the traffic re­turned to the Old Stage Road. Oftensix four-horse stages passed eachway every day. Some stage linesran from London to Ingersoll and re­layed (changed horses) every 15miles. There were over thirty tav­erns from London to Brantford,twenty of which were between Wood- stock and Brantford, and all did aflourishing business. Those old stage coach days werenot without their* incidents. Theroads in those days, especially in wetweather were in many sections mostwretched, and the miring of the stage coaches were of frequent oc­currence when heavily loaded with passengers, when of course the pas­sengers were obliged to get out andthe able bodied were expected to as­sist in relieving the situation. Onone such occasion, a rather laugh­ able case appeared as, being stuck inthe mud, the driver ordered all thepassengers out and all obeyed but one big fellow who sat still. Whenthe driver saw him, he said, “Look here, my good man, if you don’t getout of there, I’ll serve you as I dida man yesterday.” The big fellow started to take off his coat, “Howdid you serve the man yesterday?”"Oh”, replied the stage driver, “I just let him sit still.”Another incident of pathetic char­acter was told by the stage driver. On one occasion he overtook a poor,weary woman near Martin’s Tavern,and, having room, took her on. She bad a small- sack of Hour on hershoulder and said she lived north ofIngersoll, had walked all the way to Hamilton with one bushel of wheat, and was returning with the flour.She had no money but had not want­ ed for food or lodging on the journey.The very hospitable tavern keepersalong the way gave her food, bed anda cup of whiskey, as she called onthem, and the stage drivers gave hera lift when they had room. It is such little incidents as those that revealthe characters and customs of thepeople of those days, and it is per­ haps well at times to look back over anow almost forgotten past (To be continued) The Ingersoll Tribune, Thursday, July 24, 1962 WHO’S GOT THE BUTTON?— Canadian garment manufacturersare awaiting with considerable in­terest the market debut of a new type nylon 'button and the speciallydesigned machine used to attach itto the garment, reports The Finan­ cial Post.
