DATE BOOK (By Ingersoll Recreation Turtles Not Speedy But Races Exciting in the Chamberlain yard and seatingcapacity for many at a moment’snotice. Larry acta as starter and Brian assists the spectators with arunning commentary on the race.The lads, with an eye to business,have conducted a smart advertisingcampaign. Besides the posters, they have a travelling P.A. system-a bicycle and megaphone—to spread the word and bring in the crowd.Even two-year-old brother Randyhas learned to shout “Come to the Races”, through the megaphone. Afriend, Mary Longfield, helps out atshow time too and is usually in charge of the, refreshment con-*’ reason-as much “Come to the Turtle Races . . .Twice Daily, 3 p.m. and 8 p.m.” That’s what the poster said andsaid it most enticingly too. Therewere the racers—14 of them—all cleverly depicted in cartoon style,each carrying a banner (with his (orher?) name. More facts and figures, such as the admission price of 5cper adult, 2c per child under 12;the location, 92 Charles Street West, and so on were given in attractivecoloured lettering. By the time we had read it wewere practically on our way to visitthe Chamberlain boys, Larry and Brian, sons of Mr. and Mrs. WillardChamberlain. These two, we soondiscovered, arc no mere dabblers in the hobby of turtles, nor is it a passing fancy. For years now theboys—Larry is nearly 12 and Brian 10—have had some or many, turtlesas pets and they have made a realstudy of them. Long and scientificwords come easily in their explana­tions to the uninitiated. Their inter­est spreads to other reptile life too and they frequently have snakesaround and would dearly love toown an alligator. They have hadcorrespondence with the ReptileInstitute at Silver Springs, Florida, and are wondering now if it wouldnot be possible to ship some of theirturtles to that institution.The boys are very attached totheir pets. Each is named and theysay it is easy to tell one from theother. They look different and havediffering dispositons and actions. AsBrian tenderly stroked the head ofa snapper, he maintained that the I11UIO „„„ t„„WUUD lW4W4 „turtle would not. dream of snapping that is providing them with fun andat his friend. There are four var- a t time an opportunity forieties at present in the Chamberlain intelligent and -collection-the snapping, spotted and 8tudy.mud turtles which they catch them­selves in nearby ponds, the Cum­berlands, little green fellows thatthey must buy. These are tropicaland one of their features, Larrypointed out, is that on no two, is thebottom shell spotted alike. The boys collect bugs and grubs to feed theirpete.All 14 turtles take part in the daily race programs. There’s Moe,Elmo, Ironlungs, Hank, Snorter, Blackie, Snapper, Gray Back, BlackBack, Big Lug, Paint Turt, ShellTop (he’s the shy one), Monsterand Spots. There are 12 events, the(winner of two out of three heatstaking the prize. Early this week,Big Lug was holding the champion­ ship.There is a course all marked out INGERSOLL GIRL WRITES OF OUR LOVELY QUEEN MONm SEPT. 1—Ingersoll's 100thBirthday Party. Squadron Leader E. R. Long,RCAF, now in England attached tothe RAF, and Mrs. Long, wereguests at the Queen’s Garden Party,at Buckingham Palace earlier thismonth. This week Mrs. Long*B par­ents, Mr. and Mrs. G. B. Johnstonreceived a letter describing the party and have kindly consented to let usshare in the pleasure of the occasionand in the personal glimpses of our Queen.Mrs. Long wrote: "We went to the Queen’s GardenParty as planned and got quite athrill out of it We had a good look at Philip. I happened to be standingjust a few feet from the Queen, whenit suddenly started to rain. Sheburst into gales of laughter, and said“Oh, Dear”, but about three men im­mediately raised umbrellas aboveher, so she didn't suffer any. Wedidn’t either, as the crowd waspacked so tight, and so many umbrel­las went up that we were covered. “She is very lovely, very like herpictures, and it is amazing, how shesfppears to be interested in everyonepresented to her. We were much im­pressed, but it must be a terrificstrain on her. Her attire was thesame as she wore at Ascot as wasthat of Princess Margaret. I didn’thave a very good view of the Prin­cess, but Ted had. They all came outon the lawn together, then separated,and mixed with their subject*. Mar­ in* of Kent was with Philip. He’snice! “We entered by the main gate,then we lined a long queue, windingaround the court yard, and eventu- cession. Even with the very .able rates, they have cleared as 80c at one show.An interesting outcome of theirturtle-raising hobby and markedartistic talents, are the books of“turtle comics” prepared by theboys. These are mainly Larry’s pro­ ject, but Brian helps too. The stor­ies star such stalwart characters as“Frank Buckturt”, .who brings backastonishing wild creatures alive;and “Wild Moe Turtock,” who bearsa striking likeness to certain two-gun Western heroes. The stories areoriginal as well as the illustrations and the books are complete even toindex and cast of characters. Theboys’ school chums eagerly await these comics.To Larry and Brian there is only one sad feature about keepingturtles. They have never been ableto keep them through the winter. Each spring though, they can getmore and continue with a hobby ally passed through the Palace itself, to get to the Gardens behind. The Palace is magnificent of course. Everything covered with gold leaf,beautiful paintings, reclining nudes,lovely china, chandeliers, etc. The food was good. We ate while itrained, then we stood under thetrees, and watched people being pre­sented. We didn’t get wet at all.There were several Canadians pres­ ent. It was like “Old Home Week".We saw Mr. Attlee and SomersetMaugham and many other wellknow characters. We had a lovelytime."

Miss Walker re­ferred to Mrs. Smith’s accomplish­ments for Alexandra Hospital in a position which requires “the wisdomof a Solomon, the patience of a Job,the tact of a Disraeli, and the poli­tical finesse of a Roosevelt.” Shepaid tribute to her work for the new hospital when her judgment andcounsel were invaluable to those incharge of building and furnishing. Mrs. Smith’s unfailing spirit of co­operation has been a vital factor inthe successful administration of thehospital.(Miss Walker noted too, that Mrs.Smith had been instrumental in re­energizing the graduate nurses ofIngersoll and in helping to form a section of the Registered Nurses’Association of Ontario. As a house­wife and mother, Mrs. Smith has shown the same fine ethical leader­ship.

The giftwas presented as a reminder of thelove and grateful appreciation ofevery member of the Auxiliary.Mrs. Smith, in her reply, told herfriends that Ingersoll would alwayshave a big place in her life and that she would take with her many happymemories of her years here.Tea was served by Mrs. RobertCarr, Mrs. Robert Wark and Mrs.P.

Sappy birthday W e’re Going To Have a Holiday Following a practice started last year, theTribune will close its office for a week, to givethe staff a vacation. We find that this way ismore satisfactory, both for our readers andprinting customers and for us too, than at­ tempting to stagger holiday time throughoutthe summer. So—the office will be closed from August 11 to 16, inclusive and there won’t be a Tri­bune on August 14. We hope you will miss us. We ask that our advertisers and corres­pondents take special notice of the announce­ ment. The correspondents too, will be able toenjoy a one-week holiday. Mrs. Geo.

THE INCEMOU, TRIBUNE By Ira* Hatt Mr. and Mrs, David Pollard, Helen,Nancy and Lewis, have had a won­derful trip this summer. For Mn.Pollard, though, it was more than a holiday—it was a real family reun­ion. When she was very small, herparents died and the family wasbroken up. From that time till justa few years ago, Mrs. Pollard had no contact with her brother and sla­ters, most of whom live in NewEngland. This was her first oppor­ tunity to visit them and so, when shemet a brother and sister in Vermontand one of two sisters in Massachu-settes, it was the first time they hadmet in almost 35 years. At a reun­ion, there were 32 attending andexcept for one cousin, all were members of the immediate families.In New York City they visited arelative of Mrs. Pollard’s adoptedfamily and though the very hotweather took the edge off the pleas­ures of sight-seeing they did enjoyvisiting the harbour to see such bigships as the Queen Mary, and a per­ sonally conducted tout of La Guar­dia Field where the cousin’s husbandwas employed. On their way homo they stoppedover at Ithaca, N.Y., where theysaw famed Cornell University andpicnicked at one of the highestwaterfalls in the States. The effect of this was spoiled by the dryweather, though, and Mrs. Pollardsaid that while they stood in pour­ ing rain to view the falls, “only aspoonful” of water was droppingover them. They returned by wayof Niagara, to complete a verymemorable vacation. One of the prettiest and daintiestbouquet* we have ever seen centred the tea table at Mrs. F. H. Adams’ home for the party for Mrs. R. L.Smith, given by the Hospital Auxil­ iary. Arranged by Mrs. GordonTingle, the "flowers” were weeds—Queen Ann’s lace. You could not pos­sibly refer to them as wild carrot.In their natural white and in sev­eral delicate tints (done we under­stand with Easter egg colouring), thedelicate patterns of the blooms stood out against a background of shinydark green and green and whiteleaves. It was lovely!• • • Jim, the one-legged, talking crow that has been amusing the town forseveral months, seems to have settledon Cottage Avenue as his home. Heis a daily visitor with Mr. and Mrs.Fred Rich, will take food from theirhands, and in fact, when they take asummer lunch out of doors, they rath­er feel that he would take it right from their mouths if given the oppor­tunity. Jim “helps” too in weedingthe garden and Mrs. Rich finds him worse than a cat for being underfootas she works. He has come to recog­nize the sound of the Rich’s refrig­ erator door and will hop up on atable right at the kitchen windowwhen he hears it Jim is very muchof a tease and loves to try to takethe newspaper from Mr. Rich’s hand.His “Get up, get up** early in themorning is a familiar cry and beseems to know little boys’ likings, foras soon as he spots one, he yells“Foul Ball”. He will come when cal­led and during Mr. Rich’s holidays,obviously missed his early morninginvitation to breakfast and createdquite a commotion about the later hour.But don’t think Jim doesn’t ap­preciate his friends and try to repaytheir kindness. Last week he brought the Rich’s a penny and Miss Hearn,farther up the street, was presentedwith a nickel. They aren’t sure where Jim gets his cash, and hopes that heis not leading a life of crime fortheir benefit THIS ’N THAT — Wasn’t thatcool, cool breeze Tuesday night de­lightful?

Civic holiday ushers in the first long week-end of the warm weather season - - a period that calls for extra caution on the crowded streets and high­ ways. Up to now, the calendar has been on the side of safety - - May 24th falling on Saturday and Dominion Day on Tuesday . In spite of this, accident hazard on those occasions was very high. But the August holiday will see the roads teem­ ing with cars from Friday night to Tuesday morn­ ing. Past experience has shown that Civic Holiday is one of the wont periods of the year for traffic accidents. Last year, 13 persons were killed on that week-end alonb, a sad start to a month that ended with a total of 95 fatal casualties. More cars travelling more miles usually adds up to more accidents. Mixed into the pulsing traffic stream this week-end will be people driving to and from vacation spots, resident drivers on week-end jaunts, tourists seeing the country, loaded buses, trucks and transports, Sunday driv­ ers - - - a moving conglomeration of vehicles young and old. In this mass will be drivers who are impatient There will be some who are hot- beaded, others overcautious. There ,will be “dare­ devils”, “show-offs”, “one-hand” artists, and the ones who “never have an accident” There will be •low brains controlling fast cars, and fast tongues What Others Say Different Town Same Problems Some people around here do a lot of thinking about the future of their community. They like to see progress being made and new public build­ ings going up, but they shudder to think of what these things do to the tax rate. They also think of projects which may be necessary around here in future years—such as a sewage system. Of course there are usually two sides to every subject. Some pessimistic people predict this com­ munity will be deep in debt soon and see the mun­ icipal financial future as very black. This town has come through some tough times and paid off some big debts and there is no doubt we may have the same experiences to go through again in the future. But after twenty years or so we suggest there will be«very few people who will look back and say that “we should have done without” that new hospital, or new school, or community centre. That’s the funny thing about progress. You have to surmount a lot of obstacles and usually pay a big price to have it—The St. Marys Joumal-Argus.

The business transacted wasabandonment of a scheme for can­ vassing for subscriptions towardsthe purchase and equipment of apublic hospital. The plan has proved not feasible. Rev. Jas. Grant movedadoption of the report, .which ex­plained why the plan had failed and recommended that an agreement be­tween them and Dr. McKay behanded back to him along with their appreciation of his financial offerand valuable assistance. It was sec­onded by R. J. Robertson and signedby Justus Miller, chairman of thecommittee. Mayor Miller did not feelthat abandonment of the movementwas a good plan. He believed thatIngersoll would some day have agood public hospital. The Ingersoll, North and West Oxford Fair will be Sept. 26-27.

He micht remove tho word “mirth.” For ther* is little morereal fun in the major realms of sport. It has become a very aerimssbusiness, with few laugha. If there ia- any mirth, then it ia strictlycoincidental, and unintentional. In fact, the athletes of today aren’t even characters as weknew such in other days when there was less money, more laughs.They’re cold, calculating and skillful, workmen. It wasn’t like this in the not so old days when sport had its sports. The guys (and gals, too) had personality. There's no more roistering characters such as, for instance, thelate Harry Greb, Pittaburg’s bouncing boxer who buffetted his wayto the world middleweight title. Greb’s deviations from what were known as routine training methods won him fame of a sort. Cer­tainly notoriety. Once in New York he rolled out of bed late in theafternoon, went to the hotel barber-shop, requested a shave and a face massage with hot towels. It had been a rough night. The barber relied courteously: “Who do you think will win tirefight tonight Mr. GrobT* Replied Harry, indifferently: “Who’s fighting?” “Why, you are, Mr. Greb*’, said the amaaed barber. Ha wasright too. Out west they recall lurid tales of big, rugged Amby Moran,who played major hockey both east and west. Amby was careless about training, too. He played so poorly for 'Regina one season,that the late Wes Champ, advised him he would have to report inshape the next fall or do without a contract. So Moran bought a pair of pants three sizes too big for himself, donned them, reportedto Champ.. When the manager queried him about weight, Ambyran his hand around the top to shoiw how much larger they were for him “as a result of his program of getting in shape.”“It cost me $9 for those pants, but I got a contract, recalledAmby. .Sprague Cleghorn, one of hockey’s great-all time defenseplayers, was a paradox, a practical joker off the ice, a hard manon it. One night while he was managing Montreal Maroons, the Governor General of Canada was present in the Montreal Forumas patron and guest of honour at a big Christmas-basket charityboxing event. He was invited to the Maroon dressing-room to meet the players who were hurriedly summoned. Just as the GovernorGeneral and his staff were making a dignified entrance, a horrifiedForum official noticed Cleghorn had a “buzzer” attached to his hand. He was instructed, in hasty whispers, to get rid of it. “Surely”,said the official, “you were not going to shake hands with theGovernor Genera) wearing that thing?” “Certainly I was’*, said Cleghorn. “The boxing show is poor, the Governor looks bored, and deserves some sort of a thrill.’’ day.

Hl health or diseaseis the opposite of health. It is a de­parture from the state of health, ofbody or mind, characterized usually by a disturbance of function. Whendisease appears, it is evident thatthe nerve force causing health has diminished its activitiy. Something isinterfering with the normal nervecurrents essential to normal struct­ ure and action.Nerve function operates through the nervous system which is widelydistributed throughout the body,enabling all organs to receive this nerve force so necessary to normalstructure and action. The cause of nerve interferencedirectly concerns the modern chiro­practor because his science is foun­ded on the well proven promise thatinterference with normal nervefunction is the primary cause of many types of illness. Diminishednerve functions impair normal actionof organs and thus ill health results. The modem chiropractor locates andremoves interference with pinchednerves, thereby restoring the normal nerve function employed by naturein making all curves and maintaininga state of health. Has your spine been thoroughlyexamined? It may well be that your spinal condition is the cause of yourill health.

Acceptthe hearty desires we bring to Theefor Thy service and employ ourministrations in whatever duty we* can be of greatest use. Make us' everywhere true to the sign we’ wear and to stand a* Thine hand-1 maidens and soldiers of old by the; Cross of the Saviour: By purity andhonour and unselfish behaviour may’ we keep ever true our allegiance toJesus and seek to labour not for self but for others—In His Name."With thia prayer the 38 ladiesof the Welcome Circle of the King’sDaughters voice their beliefs andtheir purpose. The sixty-three-year old organiza­tion was formed when some of Ing­ ersoll’s ladies met to diacuss whatthey could do to make conditions alittle easier and brir^f comfort to theless fortunate in the community.Ten of them decided to organize forthat purpose and thus in 1889 the“Welcome Ten” was formed. Among these ladies were Mrs. Shrapneland her daughter, Mrs. John S- Kerr,an accomplished musician and mu­sic teacher; Mrs. Hepson, knownfor her kindness and care for thesick, and Mrs. A. Macaulay.Before the year was over, wordof their good deeds and kindlinesshad spread and others had becomeinterested in their worl$. Member­ship increased and the society be­came known as the Welcome Circleand made a chapter of the Interna­ tional Order of King's Daughtersand Sons. Ingersoll has three circles,while larger centres such as Londonand Kingston, have only one.Members are always willing work­ers. However, present-day memberspoint with pride to certain names on •their records. They mention Mrs.N. J. Daniel, who joined when ayoung girl and was treasurer formany years; Mrs. Phoebe Richard­son, who was made a Provincial LifeMember when the Provincial Con- *vention was held here in 1932; Miss iAlma Huntley, convenor of wel- <fare work during the war years; 1 Mrs McCarter, who was described j as "a great and wonderful leader”;, and Mrs. W. E. Noad who convenedi the sewing group and quilt cammit-I tee to raise funds to help furnish■ the nursery in the new Alexandrai Hospital.Their aims and purpose have * never changed through the years,i They make donation* to most local> charitable organizations and to the■ Canadian National Institute for thei Blind as well as trying to bring I comfort and cheer to individuals.In turn they receive donations from> other organizations and individuals' for which they are very grateful, tohelp carry on their work. However,most of their funds are raised byi the members, themselves, by making I and selling quilts and holding cook­ing and rummage sales. At Christmasthey pack baskets for shut-ins andneedy people. One of their better-. known projects was the furnishing of the nursery in the new hospital—a project they shared*with the OraCircle and the Missionary CircJ^. The Welcome Circle has had 10presidents during its life time. Theyare: Mrs, A. Macauley, Mrs. John Nancekivell, Mrs. W. Bigham, Mrs.N. J. Daniel, Mrs. J. McCarter, Mrs. M. Walton, Mrs. W. Noad, Mrs. E.Wessenger, Mrs. L. Gregory andMrs. W. Worth. In 1949 the Circle celebrated 60 years of service with a banquet atthe Y.M.C.A. Members of the present executiveare: Mrs. W. Worth, president; Mrs.E. A. Webber, 1st vice-president;Mrs. J. McBeth, 2nd vice-president;Mrs. Sid Underwood, recording sec­retary; Mrs. H. Mahar, treasurer; Mrs. F. Howe, assistant treasurer;Mrs. George Armstrong, correspond­ing secretary; Mrs. W. E. Noad, press reporter; Mrs..Geo. Armstrongand Mrs. E. Bonesteel, pianists. TheCircle has one honorary member,Mrs, B. Russell. Members of the Welcome Circlewear a beautiful pin in the shape of a cross and with the letters“I.H.N” on it. This same emblem isused as a signature on all theircorrespondence, for it is their prayerthat all their work may be “In HisName.” The Mixing Bowl Hello Homemakers I Long frosted drinks on warm summer days needno recommendations. Just make themso that they do not disappoint greatexpectations. A thirst quenchershouldn’t be too sweet or sour, ortoo .sharp. Abo, it shouldn’t be over­loaded with ice. Sweet beverages tend to satiatethe appetite making this thirst quen­ ching job a vicious circle. However,there are many nourishing mixtures that fill the nutritive needs. A goodsuggestion from the Poultry Pro­ duct* Institute is the addition of *beaten raw egg to chilled fruitjuice. Meantime we hope you haven’t forgotten how much an egg nog isappreciated when made with coldmilk, a beaten egg, a heaping spoonof ice cream and true-fruit flavour­ing or chocolate syrup.Then, too, anyone will perk up atthe mention of lemonade, yet tastesand circumstances vary in the pre­paration of this cooling drink. Ahurried pitcher of lemonade, madeby simply squeezing lemon juice and adding sugar and water to taste,i* perfectly satisfactory. However,it will be easy if you memorize ourmethod: mix the rind of 2 mincedlemon shells, 1 epp water and 1 cup sugar. Boil these 3 items for 6 min­utes then cool.^ Add 1 cup lemon juice and 4 cups.tcold water to thelemon ayrup. Pour the lemon drinkover ice in a pitcher, or tall glasses. Makes 6 to 8 servings.

In 1920, agricultural pro­ duction represented 41.3 per cent ofthe net value of all production, andmanufacturing was only 32.7 per cent. By 1948 agriculture had de­clined to 2.15 per cent of - the totalnet value of production, against !53.1 per cent for manufacturing.But statistics are not everything.Canadians are not seeking a mech­anical utopia. The ideal they haveis a country developed by its people,using all that science can give them 1 as an aid, but keeping their rootsfirmly grounded in the rich cultural heritage of the pastCanada does not dominate thephysical world by her economicstrength, her armed might, or herpopulation figures, but in the worldof ideas, of humanity and graceful living she may hope to continue sec­ond to no country on earth. Dangers in Progress There are, of course, dangers inprogress. Progress isn’t altogether good for us, because it makesthings so easy. If the blessings ofcivilization are greater, the possible disasters are Also greater. It all de­pends upon how we conduct our­selves in this new environment. Ascientist said woefully not long-ago: “The superman built the air­plane, but the ape-man got hold of it”-Something entirely different from technical progress is needed tomake sure that the large unit whichnow comprises humanity shall notblow itself up. Our social units havebeen growing: from the family totribe; from tribe to nation; fromnation to United Nations. The think­ing (we do needs to be on a similarlywidening scale.Dictatorship, which seems to someto be an easy way out of national difficulties, used to be of a benevo­lent, family-head, sort: today it en< > tails the most widespread physical.; suffering imaginable and the sup­pression of mind and spirit.1 "We thought that we had buried.- insane dictatorship ideas in the1 ruins of the bunker beneath theChancellory in Berlin. No hypothesis> was more baseless and none morefutile than that founded upon the1 idea of dictatorship, an idea which.■ promised progress and brought• about pandemonium. But the in-1 fection off this dreadful idea has’ spread over half Europe.,1 People of the western world saythey are ready to die for the sakeof liberty from dictatorship. What ’ they really mean is that they will’ give up anything except the sort of1 life that liberty makes possible.* They have done great things ir• freedom which they could not have1 done in bondage-1 Liberty b not a thing in itself;- only a door opened. The western ’ world passed through that door andfound an" opportunity to build a way ! of life free from hunger and hard-’ ship, abounding in opportunity and* happiness. Today, thia civilization is ‘ the target for alien agitation.1 __(From the Royal Bank Bulletin). Canada’s Position Until not so many years ago jthere was an inclination on the part 1 of other countries to look upon Can- ‘ada as merely a source of raw 1 materials. Today Canada is an in- 1 dustrial country, culturally eminent 4 and soundly progressive. 4 It is eighty-five years since our ]loose provinces were gathered to- 1 gether by Confederation. In that timewe have broken through frontiers of 1 geography and climate and philoso- !phy and custom to reach our present 1 position. Today, Canada is leading ’in attempts to breach old-time pre- 1 judice and selfishness and insularity 1 so that world economic reconstruc- Ition and stable progress may march side-by side with political peace. 1In his farewell message last Feb- ! ruary, Governor General Alexander I said this: “Today, with a population 'of only 14,000,000, Canada* b oneof the richest countries' in the world, and the real development of Canadais only just beginning. If nature has been kind to the -Canadianpeople, nature could not have chosenX finer people upon whom to showerher gifts.”Canadian people have contributed largely to progress, not only of theirown country but of the world. Letus look at some of our little-remem­ bered achievements.Nine years after ConfederationAlexander Graham Bell made theworld’s first long dbtance telephonecall. It was from Brantford to Paris, Ontario, and the quotation was fromHamlet’s soliloquy: “To be or notto be.” John Wright of Toronto, devisedcne first trolley pole, making theelectric street car practicable. Rob­ert Foulis, of Saint John, N.B., in­vented the steam fog horn. Dr. Wil­ liam Saunders and hb son Charlesdeveloped. Marquis wheat, openingup a whole new land to wheatgrowing. Insulin was found by Dr.Frederick Banting and Charles Best, and the Banting Institute con­quered silicosis, the “dust disease”which took so heavy a toll of life among miners. The electron micro­scope, which can magnify a humanhair to the size of a telegraph pole,was built by Professor Burton,James Hillier and Albert Prebus.And, adding glamour to science andwriting “finish” to centuries of ad­venturous exploration, Sergeant Henry Larsen of the ILC.M.P. andhis crew sailed the Northwest Pass­age for the first time from west toeast.Canada Economically When Canada’s first census wastaken in 1666 to measure the ad­vancement made (by thia Frenchcolony since the founding of Que­bec by Champbin 58 years earlier, it was found that there were 3,215inhabitants. Two hundred yean later we had nearly 3ft million.And last year’s census recorded 14,-009,429 people.Like newly opened countrieseverywhere, Canada was at firstagricultural, supplemented by pion­eer mills and factories. ’Industrial­ization as we know it today beganwith the tiie capital inflow of 1900-1913, mainly from Great Britain,and of 1920-1929, mainly from theUnited States. Since the end of World War II, domestic and foreigncapital have joined to usher in whatappears to be a new era of rapidand extensive Industrialization.It b eaay to show Canada’s indus­trial progress statistically. Ourgross national product at market prices grew from $5,956 million In According to a recent release by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics,Canada's 1951 potato acreage, ex­cluding “garden patch” production,was only 78 per cent of the previous5-year average, and production wasonly 75.4 per cent LUBRICATION - OIL CHANGE, ETC.

Forthe purpose of makitfg ready for thearrival, the old Carroll Hotel at thistime was daily the scene of bustleand business. In the bar and sittingrooms were fire places of generous DANCE dimensions, which in the season -----generously supplied with fuel, which,added to the hearty welcome of minehost, and the ample bill of fare pro­vided, together with the accessoriesof an up-to-date hostelry of the time made the traveller feel at home.Ready to resume the journey, thedriver mounts his elevated seat, givesthe parting salute on his tin horn and a flourish of hia whip, the wholeproceeding lending a picturesqueneu to the occasion, the conveyance jolt­ing and careening on its leathernsupports, yet considered the acme oftravelling comfort and convenience.However, a change from these condi­tions was in progress, which woulddispose of the picturesqueneas of one and the necessity of the other, andhumanity and horseflesh, be planted by the railroad. were sup- SATURDAY STRATFORD CASINO BOBBY YOHN and His Orchestra The passing of our stage coachbrings us to the approach to our rail­way system in the early 50’s and makes us look upon our earlier enter­prise in having established thosemanufacturing industries in theirinitial condition, inasmuch as theywere already contributing to the sta­bility of our situation as a futuretown. It was this condition alonethat secured us our railroad com­munication.

E. TIRE BARGAIN! A BRAND NEW a short distance south of It, which, If,constructed on their present surveywould have been fatal to the advance­ment of the village of Ingersoll.However, a deputation from Inger­soll met by appointment with theofficials of the proposed railway.Some slashing had been done ontheir present aurvey when the depu-. tation from Ingersoll arrived. This (delegation consisted of all the bus-! ineas men in town and many farmers . in the neighbourhood. Mr. Henryi Crotty who was a justice of the, peace took -a leading part. Afterthe present situation of Ingersolli with respect to their business and operative industries, together withthe extent of territory already served by Ingersoll, had been placed beforethe officials, they became sufficientlyinterested to look into the mattermore closely and arranged to meet’ the Ingersoll deputation with some of the higher officials some few days. later.Arriving in Ingersoll, they visitedall our institutions and it becameevident at last that by some means they had been misled as to the veryevident possibilities of Ingersollfrom a railway business point of view. The question of location wasdiscussed. When the site of the sta­tion came up, the property where ourNut factory now stands was selectedand with a liberal extent of land was offered free by Mr. Daniel Carrollfor a station. This was accepted,subject to the approval of the super­ior officials who would decide.. Mat­ters were left in this uncertain statefor some considerable time with noth­ing to disturb the belief that thissite would be accepted. On the strength of this belief, Mr. JamesFowler, who previously was a car­penter, but now the owner of a farm in North Oxford, sold his farm andcame to Ingersoll and built what wasnamed the “Anglo-Saxon, Hotel”, onthe corner of Carroll and CharlesStreets. It happened, unfortunatelyfor him that the site selected was not considered, safe on account of thepossibility of the river washing thebank at that point (and which has actually happened) so that it wasabandoned as a suitable situation forthe depot. Upon this occurring, Mr.Fowler’s investment proved a fail­ure. The building he had erected fell jinto disrepute. It was ironicallycalled Harmony Hall, and falling aprey to fire, disappeared to be re- ,membered by only our older citizens. ,The site afterward selected was thepresent one, which was purchased ”from Mr. John Carnegie and given tothe Railway Company free, from (Thames Street to the Wonham Street . Crossing, through the efforts of Mr.Henry Crotty and a few others. Of 'the present situation of the G.T.R. ‘ station it can best be judged as to .what it waa like when Mr. John Car­negie offered Mr. Henry Poole the 1 whole of this property for half a day's 'mowing. This part of the village at \ that time was overflown at high tide 'nearly to Victoria Street. It wasfrom that condition the railway 'created the depot and railwayyard as it is today. As it would notbe instructive to our later citizens to leave this subject at the above pointof description, we must add a few words as to the topography of thissection of the town. which lit on the mattreM. The re­sult whs instantaneous, and beforeanything could be done the buildingwas in flames and burned to theground. It was some years after that theNoxon Company erected the presentbuildings. Several wooden bridgesexisted before the present ironbridge. Going north over the bridgeand crossing the G.T.R., on the sitenow occupied by Mr. Kestie's GrainWarehouse stood the Adair Hotel, ahandsome three storey building. This waB destroyed by fire in thecourse of which the late Dr. Carroll narrowly escaped death in histempt to rescue his horse fromburning stable. This left him figured during his life. thedi»- With our reference to the locationof the railway we end the most im­portant event of the decade aof the 40’s, as our reference is mai0y con­fined to our local history as a village.The immigration to other parts ofthe country was assuming consider­able importance. On the north of the village the Zorras were receiving asplendid class of immigrants, themajority being Highland Scotch. Ofmany of them it can be said theyreached their destination with mem­ ories gloomy, indeed of the home oftheir birth, and became valued citi­zens of the land of their adoption. To the South, the same might be saidwith truth of o«r Irish settlers whosepioneer efforts redeemed the Town­ship bf Dereham from almost a primi­tive wilderness, both of these sections of our country being valuable con­tributors to the trade and prosperityof Ingersoll, also the settlers of mixed nationalities, many of whom wereAmericans, who, with their progres­sive spirit and previous knowledgeof pioneer conditions of life early inour history, made themselves usefulin many lines of activity, to whichreference will be made in connectionwith our early dairy business. With these also business connection wasmade with Ingersoll from its earliestsettlement. Before entering on the decade ofthe 50’s it might be well to state thatthe decadeg previous had supplied uswith the men who had managed ourmunicipal affairs from early village­hood and extended their usefulnessinto our early history as a town. In1852, John Galliford, Reeve; 1853, Thomas Brown was Reeve; 1854,Thomas Brown, Reeve; in 1865,James McCarty was Reeve (Dr. Mc­ Carty). In 1856 February 1st, theMarket Buildings, Town Hall andClerk’s Office were burned, destroy­ing the books and records of thecouncil. The arrival of the railwayin 1854 was an important event inthe history of the village of Ingersoll.The first benefit derived from itscoming was in opening a market forour timber. The cordwood suppliedfor the use of the locomotives was ofsuch an excellent quality that it wasin constant demand, no longer were log heaps burned as a means of dis­posal.(To be continued) Fire Can DestroyAcres of Wages Canada adds >100 to her income every time a cord of pulpwood isconverted into a ton of pulp andpaper, James A Vance MJEJ.C.,president of the Canadian ForestryAssociation, said in a public warningon the foreSt fire menace.“We are using 12 million cords a year to produce more than half theworld’s newsprint and to provide other pulp products,” Mr. Vancepointed out. “The sale of theseforest products alone creates annu­ally 31’4 billion of new wealthfor Canada. Ultimately, this new wealth is converted into wage-pay­ments, not ony for pulp and paperworkers, but for workers in otherindustries. For example, the pulpand paper mills pay out sums such as >200 million a year for transpor­tation, and another 3175 million forsupplies and electricity, most ofwWch ends up in pay-envelopes.“It is, therefore, reasonable to claim that the acres of Canada’sforests, within reach of industry,represent 'acres of wages’. An aver­ age woodland acre, growing 15 cordsof pulpwood, enriches the Canadian people by 31500 through the con­version of its wood material intonewsprint and pulp. Despite this high premium upon the growing andharvesting of fp/ests, we persist inretting fire wy.nually to 400,000acres of mature and usable timber,and an almost A«equal acreage of young woodlands. This devastation,in the main, is charged to campers,smokers, motorists, settlers, forest workers and other persons who, bya few easy precautions, could save Canada from a chain of tragedies. Until we place a high tangible valueon the living forest as the chief pay­master of the nation, we cannotproperly gauge the enormity of theforest fire scourge.” TO AID DRIVE AGAINST RAG-WEED New Brunswick Boy Scouts will beactive participants in government CHRYSLER AIR-TEMP OIL FURNACES and Oil Burners EDDIE MOORE’STINSHOP Eavestrough, General .

In earlyspring time one could see only an un­broken view of the river extendingfrom the site of the G.T.R. depot upto the foundation site of St. Paul’sChurch. On the right hand the rivercurrent was swiftly passing, while onthe left many palm trees, centuries old, could be seen rising from thesurrounding waters, with theirgreat trunks, many of them eightfeet in diameter and with an enor­mous spread of branches. Here the water was not affected by the cur­rent, with a depth of water of 4 to 6feet, and often remained so until themiddle of June. This flood wascaused by the bends of the river, which were caused in early days bythe numerous dams erected by thebeaver, and also to the great flood­wood which held back the waters ofthe river. In the next ten years agreat improvement had taken place.On the flats where the water settled,the sediment had built up the land until it was above the stream, excep­ting at very high water. The first building to be erected was situatedat the southwest comer adjoiningthe bridge and close to the river on the site of the offices of the present FileCompany. It was a wooden structuretwo stories in height, on posts whichmade a basement nearly eight feethigh, which was woodshed and sum­ mer kitchen. The writer was then alad, a messenger boy for the only tele­graph office in town.at the G.T.R. Station (then the Great Western)and the happy posesssor of a rowboat It happened that the writerwas out for a row on the river whenthe window of the upper story was opened and a mattress on which apoor fellow had died a few day^ be­fore, was thrown out and landed nearthe river, one end leaning against thewooden sides of the basement (The mattress was filled with straw.)

A good part of the time they’re running errands, taking children to school, taking women to stores, taking men to work, taking family and friends to dubs and social functions. It doesn’t call for a very great output of horsepower for duties like these. But there are times when you want a car that can do vastly more, and these arc the times when you’ll want what this year’s Roadma ster has to offer. Beneath its proud hood, there’s a Fireball 8 Engine—a valve-in-head that can let loose 170 lively horsepower when needed. And—alongside this engine—there’s also an Airpower carburator which thriftily feeds fuel and air through two smaller-than-usual barrels for normal driving—which means that you now use less gas at 40 than you’d formerly use at 30. But there are two barrels in reserve—waiting for you to call them into action—and they let loose a soaring rush of power that sinks your shoulders back into the seat cushion, swoops you past a truck—out of a tight spot- up a hill—sets your speedometer needle to registering added miles more than twice as fast as your watch can tick off the seconds. This is an experience you certainly should know firsthand. You should also know how Buick’s Power Steering* * provides a helping hand in slow-motion manoeuvres— lets you keep the "feel’’ of the car in straightaway driving. And—just for good measure—this 1952 Roadmaster also has the biggest brakes on any postwar Buick—the greatest trunk space since spare tires moved off the front fenders—a warning light that gloWs when the parking brake is set—and to top it all the smartest interior fabrics that Buick has ever offered. When are you coming in to look this distinguished performer over? We urge you to make it soon. •Optional extra cost •* ROADMASTXM Mtfy Sure is; true 1br 52 When better automobiles are bunt BUICK will build them O D E L L & A L L E N Phone 122 Ingersoll, Ontario Kino Street East Page^The Ingersoll Tribune, Thursday, July 81, 1952Library OffersWide Variety For Summer Readers Doe* hot weather affect Ingersoll’*reading habita? Judging by the booksborrowed from the Public Library in July the hot spell reduced thenumbers of books read but hardlythe variety of them. Requests for books still range from lightest ofnovels to books on the nationaliza­tion of industry and from the newest•best seller* to the study of the Eng­lish classics and books opr-'peyehol- ogy and philosophy for the summerschool student Lately tob, reflectingIngersoll’s coming centenary, therehas been a demand for material onIngersoll’s history sand all books onpionftr life aBd on costume.8R>me favourites among readersthis summer have been these:“Dance to the Piper” by Agnes deMille, the fast-paced story of thestruggle of the now famous choreo­ grapher of such ballets as Rodeo andthe dances in Oklahoma! It has somefascinating chapters on the hecticproduction of this latter musical.“Adventures in Two Worlds” byA. J. Cronin, and “Gown of Glory”by Agnes Turnbull, both have longwaiting lists.A newcomer on the list or sum­mer books, and most rewarding, is“Windows for the Crown Prince”,by Elizabeth Vining. Mra. Viningwas invited to Japan as tutor to theCrown Prince after the American occupation of that country andachieved a remarkable success. Herbook describes very vividly the Jap­ anese attitude toward the occupa­tion as well as the way of life inthe royal circle.“The Silver Chalice’* by ThomasCostain, is a major novel publishedin mid-summer, a novel that is beinghailed as a successor to such books as Ben Hur, Quo Vadis and The Robe.A variety of historical novels have <arly Canada featured in their set- “Touched by Fire” by John Teb-bel which has LaSalle as its central character; “Strange Brigade”, by John Jennings; “The Paths ofGlory”, by Kenneth Fenwick and“Citadel of the Lakes”, by Myron Orr; “Dare to be Free” by W. B.Thomas, is another exciting “es­ cape” story to come out of World War II. “The Naked Island”, byRussell Brad den, relates personalexperiences of capture by the Jap­anese, and “Angie of Attack” by Joseph Landen, is a novel of the air force. Two other new novels have astheir background, the war in Koreaand the cold war in Europe. Theseare ‘'Hold Back the Night", by Pat Frank and “Trial of Terror, by Paul Galileo.

A. Lashley, theSecretary-Manager of the OntarioPlowmen’s Association who sponsorthis event.With headquarters located on theCarp Airport, a few miles from Ot­tawa, interest is already running high and the Local Committee isworking hard at the job of gettingeverything ready for the many guests who will visit the "International” inthe week of October 7th.Of the new Classes which have beenadded to the prize list this year, pos­sibly the “Mayor’s Class” is receiv­ ing most public attention. Started bya challenge from Mayor CharlotteWhitton to the Mayors of Ontario, this ha8 developed into a full-fledgedevent which will be held on the after­ noon of October 8, immediately fol­lowing the official opening. Alreadythe challenge has been taken up by Mayor Lamport of Toronto, MayorSmith of Woodstock and Mayor Mac­kenzie of Beaverton. The latter two officials are both ladies but undoubt­edly some more of the Ontario menholding this office will come forward to challenge the supremacy of theladies at the art of plowing. The winner will receive a Challenge Cupwhich is being presented by J. D.Thomas, Honorary President of the Ontario Conservation Association.Two new classes for visitors—onefor horse and the other for tractorplowing have been added to thisyear’s list. These classes will be open only to plowmen from outside theProvince of Ontario and it is expec­ted there will be a number of Ameri­ can plowmen on hand to participate,in addition to competitors from otherProvinces. Another change in the prize list isto be found in the Junior section. Atractor class, open to teams of two students from secondary schoolsthroughout Ontario will replace whathas been known a8 the Inter-Countyhorse plowing class for Juniors.In addition to the new classes, the“Tented City” will have a “NewLook” this year. Instead of twostreets as has been the case in the past there will be three streets withsix rows of tents for exhibitorsand caterers. This will make for shorter streets and a more compact layout At the same time the Assoc­iation is attempting to obtain a lay­out which will be advantageous to all concerned. As a result they have setthe deadline of September 6th for re­ceiving applications for space. All who are planning to have an exhibitor to cater at the match should maketheir applications before that date to F. A.
