T H E INGERSOLL TR IB UNE - The Only N«w»p>pcr Publiihed In lagenelL THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JAN. 20, 1927 KI WANIS CLUB HELD EVENING MEETING manville. Grerga Sutherland The Ingersoll Kiwanif Club held their regular weekly luroneon at the Ingersoll Inn on Friday last at 8.15 p.m. The reason for the evening luncheon was to enable the club to have Dr. Reauan of the Boys’Train ing School at BowmanviDe, as their speaker. Dr. Reanan wns speaking at the noon luncheon of the London Kiwanis Club and stopped to visit the Ingersoll Club at their evening meeting. Kiwanian George Sutherland was the chairman of the meeting and gave a brief report of the meeting of the district trustees held in Ot tawa last week. In welcoming the speaker of the evening, Mr. Suther land pointed out that the Club had been contributing to the project which would be discussed by Dr. Reanan and they were very pleased to be able to hear something of what their money was doing. In opening Dr. Reanan said : "I am glad to be here to-nig‘ht and to be able to give you some informa tion about our achooE 1 ant going to put the cards on the,table and let you see what we have. Your dub is contributing regularly to this pro ject and there is no doubt about making the thing go through. We take in boys from all over the prov ince, there arc about six different types of them. There is the type around which the home has fallen to pieces, the home has been dis solved and there is no one to take aay special interest in the boy. If he is left alone something will hap pen to him. He is the class that doesn't need reform but just needs to be looked after. Ip introducing me, your chairman stated that 1 was to tell you about the Bowmanville Boys' Farm. We look upon our institution a# a school and not a fawn. We like to have it known as the Boys’ Training School at Bowmanville. We don’t look up on it as a reformatory but as a school co give education. Another type of boy we have is one that comes from a good home where they are not able to handle him. Of this boy it may be said that he’s got steam up, or in other words, he’s of a headstrong nature. Then there is the boy that has a criminal tendency and the spoilt boy, the one that has bad too much done for him. Another class is the boy from a poor home or perhaps the foreign boy. The speaker told of two cases where boys from the school were earning money from outside sources, one boy had started a shoe shine chair and in a very short while will have the chair paid for. Another boy is at present playing the piano in a picture show in the city. The boy that comes from a brok en home is about as difficult a fellow as we have. He . lives just within the law, he is no coward but he has false standards. Then there is the boy we get from the Children's Aid Society. These boys come to us be cause there is no one else who will ■ have them. We do not take any boy until he is mentally tested. We are the firat school in the world to in- Kist that no boy tests about 80% is no coralation ' torts and action#. enter unless ho mentally. Thera between mental We had one boy Canadian Oddfellows Install Officers Loyal Queen Victoria Lodge Officer* For 1927 Installed by D.Q4L Master Irvin Butler and Staff Installation of officers for’ the Loyal Queen Victoria Lodge, No. 116, C.

LONDON BLANKED LOCAL INTERMEDIATES London 12th Battery experienced little difficulty in trouncing the Ing ersoll sextet by the score of 9 to 0 in an intermediate 0. H. A, game staged at the London Arena Tues day night. The London bombardiers bombarded the Ingersoll nets and might have easily secured even a larger lead. The Londoners completely out classed the Ingersoll team with their speed and teamwork. Combination plays made it possible for the Bat tery men to break through the op posing defense. Goalie Noe was the outstanding man on the Ingersoll line-up. He cleared no leas than 47 shots and broke up numerous at tacks. Tom Film ore was the leading goal- getter, scoring four goals. Reynolds contributed two, while Pritchard. Somerville Zeigler netted the other three. Sandy Somerville play ed a clever game at centre ice and his passes made it possible for the military teem to 3-^cco' two > cd&n- Routine Business Occupied Atten lion of Council at Regular Meet- Council Re Motor Camp. The regular meeting of the town council was held in the committee room of the town hall on Monday evening last, with Mayor S. E. Brady in the chair and the fallowing councillors present: Wm. H.

He was one of the -best liars I have ever seen and he eould stick to his statements. The only way we could get him to admit things was to tell him ghost stories and put him in a dark room. We are now able to handle thia boy because we have shown him what fa» expected of him. . We also have the undernourished toy tome to us and he is allowed ■ certain privileges until he comes up to the normal physios! standard. Mort boys acquire useless habits but not useful habits, and it is just as easy to learn a good habit as « bad one so one thing we do is teach the boys habit formation. There is no school ju#t like ours in the world, so we have precedent to follow, and have to map out our own plans. We are not interested to any great extent in a boys' past record but are interested in how be i# going to act ip his new envi ronment.

D. E.. was a splendid success in every way. There was a very large attendance, nineteen tables being in play during the evening. In addi tion, there wore many ticket holders not present, so that from a fihancial standpoint, the effort was considered very satisfactory. The evening was one of very enjoyable social charac ter, and the contests were entered Into with a spirt of friendly rivalry Which added much to the pleasure. The firat prize for the ladies' was won by Mra. Lloyd Hazelton, and the second prize for the ladies by 31ns, John E. Gayfer. The fast prize for gentlemen wont to W. F. Drum, .and toe second to W. A.

The topic of the evening, ‘‘The Life of Archibald Lampman," waa presented in a very intererting way by Miss Iva Hale. Miss Francis Lefler contributed to the programme ■with a vocal solo, which was much appreciated. The singing of another hymn and the repeating of the Miz pah Benediction brought the meet ing to a close. While the visitors were complet- ly . outclassed, they fought every minute of the game, and in the Hat period they appeared to be stronger than in the two earlier periods, but Art Hynd’s work in the London nets prevented them from breaking into the scoring column. London sccored three goals each period. Ingersoll’s poke-checking tactics failed to break up London's te.-trfiwork. Filmore, Zeigler and Som erville were most unselfidi and ex changed passes near the goal mouth. “Smoky" Reynolds figured in sev eral rushes and the husky defense player is a neat puck carrier. Prit chard and Reynolds paired up well on the defense and blocked the at tacks of their opponents. The game was not marred by rough play, as only four minor pen alties were imposed by Referee Russel Sandercock. The teams:— Ingersoll — Noe, goal; Barrett, right defense; Cowell, left defense; Hutt, centre; McMillan, left wing; Munroe, right wing; Huntley, Mar- shxH, subs.

The ope nig devotional ex ercises included the Scripture lesson read by Miss R. Elliott. The topic of the evening was chapter 4 of “The Bible In English,'' and was taken by the pastor, Rev. A. P. MacDonald. A vocal sole by -Miss Jennie Thomp son was well received. The meeting was closed with the singing of a hymn and prayer. and the play phase.

A letter from the Children’s Shelter at Woodstock, was read, in forming the council that a child who had been a ward of the town was taken into a foster home and । the payment of its upkeep would ' automatically cease. An invitation was read from * Horace W. Coon, Secretary of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club, inviting the * member# of the Town Council to a ! luncheon of the Kiwanis Club to be held at the Ingersoll Inn on Fri- ’ day evening of this week at G.15 pjm.

(The Ontario Good Roads Associa tion wrote drawing attention to their annual meeting to be held in , Toronto on Thursday, Friday and । Saturday, February 23rd,'24th, ad . 25h, and requested the council to send representatives. The reports of Committees were , next In order. Wm. H. English, . chairman of the Finance Committee , in his report, recommended the pay- । went of the following accounts:— . Ingersoll Telephone Co., 65c; Sen- I tlnel-Revjew, $85.71; Victoria Indus- . trial Schoo!, $15.00; Neal and Bax- . ter, $.7.00;• Mothers’ Allowance $110.00; Cobnty of Oxford, $694- . 39; Municipal World, $31.03; Lon- • don.

W. Staples, i read the report which reeommend- • ed the payment of the following । accounts: M. N. Neely, $1.50; S. bylaw with -Councillor W. E. Manzer in the chair. The amount named -was $40,000, and the rate of in terest to be paid 6%. Councillor Henderson questioned the chairman of the finance commit tee as to whether he did not bdfeve the rate of interest to be a little high. Councillor English replied in the affirmative, but doubted if any better rate could be secured, this had been tried other years and It had been found that 6% was low as was given. Mayor Brady was of the o’pinion that no lower rate than 6% could be seared, but it was worth trying at any rate. The by law after a little further discus sion, was passed in committee of the whole without amendment, giv en its third reading and finally pass ed, signed and numbered 939. William King, proprietor of King’s Tourists' Camp on the Provincial Hghway, just west of town, was present and explained that some timt ago he had approached the Mayor with the suggestion that the town take over his camp and make it into a Municipal Camping Ground, but since then he had considered the matter more fully and now be- lieved*that if his camp was taken over by the town it would not bo fair -to others that were operating private camps on the highway in town, so he would therefore like the matter passed by. There was some discussion on the matter of camps, Mayor Brady ex pressing the view that Victoria Park was one of the most ideal camp spots on the whole route, but lacked certain conveniences that were necessary in order to have it re cognized as a Municipal Camp. The budget of the parks committee at the present time was not sufficient ly large enough to look after this, but at some time in the future, it might be cared for. He assured Mr. King that the council would do all in their power to encourage tourists' camps and that they -would be glad to take the matter up with him at some future date.

Wes ton was the founder of the first' bicy^ie club ever organized on this side of the Atlontic ocean, half a century ego. He was an Englishman and tame to this country to awaken interest in the bicycle. That little urn containing Wes ton’s ashes had rested upon a shelf in the undertaker's parlors for many years. Those legs that had pedalled -over rough roads of fifty years ago and that brain that had created en thusiasm for, the now antique means of travel had been converted to ash es. The incinerated remains of a once active/ human brain and body didn't mean a thing as they gather ed dust on the undertaker's shelf. But when someone who remembered came across them they assumed new interest, The idea which had been works. He will finish his shift at five o’clock and she is taking the baby to meet Daddy. The young mother has put on a bright, clean frock, and is wearing her best hat. The baby is a bundle of white fluffincss with pink ribbons in his cap. It is Saturday afteroon and soon the little family will be united for a happy week-end. A week-end in their own little home, where Daddy will amuse the baby while Mother gets the Sunday dinner. In a few min utes they came back past our win dow, for the mil! where the man works fa hot far from our home. He was stepping along in his over alls,.swinging his empty dinner pail and smiling at the baby. Ho was proud of his woman and his child. His week’s work was done and he was going homo with priceless possessions. They walked, for they did not yet own automobile. But he was rich in his strength, his young manhood and possessions be yond price. The young wife with her baby and her household duties had tore matrons of fifty years were ac tually engaged os we have noted when called on the telephone. Not so mpny years ago, you would have found any five women of fifty at home in the evening, reading or knitting. They would probably have been wearing long black skirts and lace caps.

Hartnett. The meeting was 'very largely attended, there being present to answer the roll 56, the most recorded , for several months, a splendid start for the New Year. The president, Mrs. A. Downing, occupied the chair, and the meeting opened with the singing of the Maple Leaf. The roll was answered by “What is your idea of the Greatest Earthly Happiness". the best answer by far in our estimations, being “A Home of My Own,” by one of our youngest members, the answers were not <as ready as usual. We are thinking of starting an other contest in this direction, as it seems to bo the best way of bringing out our ideas. Mrs. L. Woodman then read letters from different sources, one of interest from the Superintendent, Mr. G. Putmar, risking us to arrange f<Tr our speaker for the summer meeting if so desired. This' mot with general approval and was left to the Secretary for arrangement. Mrs. Downing then gave her retort of meeting held by Literary Committee, the previous week, the result of which was very satisfactory and a committee of 10 was appointed to go ahead with work necessary including the appointing of the Board. We hope by the February meeting to be well in readiness for the opening- After all business was dispensed with.

Morris will be another attraction, “The Farm Woman of Yesterday and To-day," still another paper by Mrs. Cecil Frouse, “Community Entertainments,” a subject on which the author of the paper is a great authority. We hope for a large attendance, our membership is now 78. We should like to see it as large as that of year> any new members will be very welcome.

Why Is It levels during reactions between; whereas, tirade was apparently at its best in the late summer and early autumn so' far as wholesale distribution was concerned. Retail trade, was of course, at Its peak for the year in the late fall, when cold weafher, snow and holiday buying all united to make business good. In the spring, retail trade suffered, as in other previous years, from cold, backward weather before and after Easter, 'and in addition with whole sale trade, felt the psychological ef fect of the heavy break in the stock market in March. There were quite n few new high records set up in industry during the year, but there was a number of instances in which 1926 fell behind 1925 or earlier years. That there was a heavy, perhaps record, vol ume of trade, taking the year as a whole is attested by the unpreced ented bank clearings, debits, ear loadings and railroad earnings re ported, but bank clearings first, later debits and still later ear load- jngs, dropped behind Cho preceding year in late autumn, for which ex planation was frequently offered in the .excellent trade of the last quarter of 1925, severe breaks in cotton prices in Septiriber and Octo ber, _a short spring-whbat crop, and a wet harvest in the west. Taken as a whole, as already sta ted, the year showed some net pro gress upward from the years re cently preceding. The stock market in January and February disclosed great strength, and surprised many by the rally shown after the heavy break of March, in winch seven months’ advances in some instances were cancelled, to the new high levels touched in July, and thence forward to the close ;~nnd the min imizing of some had effects of the deflation of the Florida and other land speculation was likewise a sub ject for congratulation. The steel and cement industries, the automo bile business, the electrical ip- dustry and the building trades showed wonderful strength and evinced an unexpected ability to avoid over-production, which is, and has been, the bug-bear .of American industry, since -it was demonstrated that industry, as a result of war time accretions, is apparently cap able of satisfying a larger demand than it seems possible to create, despite the high earning ability and spending power of the people of this country, Industry, In fact seemed to have gone forward nt a studied pace, and with competition in the automobile trade perhaps excepted, with a keen regard for avoiding the pitfalls ef over-production. The matter of trade distribution has, on the other hand, shown that some puzzling problems are still, as in recent years, facing the whole salers and retailers of the country. There ja no escaping the conclusion that the development of chain stores, mail order houses and chain depart ment stores, with their natural reaching out for business, aided, no doubt, by th© immense development of the motor industry in Ite applica tion to buying and distribution. hb« tics available—from smaller deal ers. Even today, the returns if wholesale trade are, according to Federal Reserve Bank reports, not so large as in 1919, seven years ago. when, however, prices were much higher. The advance of the install ment business became more marked during the year, and arguments for and against the spread of the prac tice into all lines of trade filled the newspapers and trade journals. The financial interests of the coun try, taken as a whole, went through the year with remarkable aucceaa, the heavy break In the stock market In March having been Weathered witbout injury and the flattening out of the real estate booms at about the same time, leading to less than apprehended trouble.

Perhaps the most notable feature of the year’s operations, and ow •which economists are not yet agreec upon as regards ultimate results was the fact that the great busmes of the year was done at a generail; speaking, steadily lowering of pric levels. That falling prices.act to TO tardy buying is generally ' asaertec whereas, it is, perhaps, not so ger erally conceded that fallen priei act as a direct incentive to increase consumption. The past year has cet tainly seen in the automobile, tin sugar, cotton, rubber and a variet of other Unes, instances of reduce prices widening the circle of distr bution; whereas, the fear of pric reductions may be read in the pas three years’ complaints of hand-to mouth purchasing, which has bee itself a direct cause of increase overhead coat per unit of productio Contributing to the general! downward trend of commodity price over the year, thia being slightly I excess of 11 per cent., Were decline in a number of important stapl products, such as cotton, woo ■wheat, wheat flour, rubber, Jats e m bog products, apples, pig iroi silver, copper,1 lead, fir lumber an cotton seed.

It is a fact that sea soned radio fans are losing much of their craze for DX stations and are becoming stronger, for greater quality oir stations within a med ium range for more ornamental and better constructed seta and for con venience and. ease of operation.

It is called the “piano-rad'' and hag bcefi successfully demonstrated in programs broadcast through »WRN Y, New York City. The Pianorad has a keyboard like an ordinary piano, a radio vacuum tube being connected to each of the keys. Ever/ time n key is pressed a radio oscillator circuit is energized which gives rise to a pure flute like note in the loudspeaker connect ed to the device. The musical notes generated in this manner have practically no overtones. Consequently, the music produced by the Pianorad possesses an exquisite pureness Of tone not realized Ip any other musical instru ment The quality is said to be better than that of the flute. The A lady named Mrs. C. E. Warner, known in the contest only as th® “Mystery Lady’’ won the woman’s championship and second prize. Then the Omaha papers heard of it.' Colums of space were dedbated I to the idea. Finally the Omaha Ra- I dio Association made the Hog CalL ' ing Contest a feature of its show. Fred Patzel -won first prize of ?700 and a gold medal.

Any num ber of notes may be played simul taneously as on the piano, but the notes may be sustained for any length of time, a feat whlbh is not passible with the piano. As the oscillators in the Pianorad generate electromagnetic waves first, these in turn creating sound ■waves in the loudspeaker connected to the device, it is possible to con nect the Pianorad directly to the broadcast transmitters without the use of the intermediate loudspeaker to play into the‘regular microphone.

The period ended 1-0 for Glencoe. The second frame had gone but a minute when Foxworthy evened it on a beautiful rush that was easily the best play of the game. Near the middle of the period Foxworthy shot again, this time almost from middle ice, and put London in the lead. One min ute later Tozer came through alone on the wing and ’ Cammed irr Lon don’s last goal, j The period ended 3-1, for London. One minute after play in the third frame, Humphreys scored the final goal at the night for Gtencoe, taking a pmu from behind the goal and In the corner.

This may no sound average person, but much to the it does mean a lot to the boys at the school, some of whom did not know 'huw to play or the real value of play before starting at the school. The boys are practically all tru ants and the school phase does not appeal to them very strongly- The boys are hand-minded and like to make things rather than to read or study. They take up practical voca tion, and instead of writing essays they are taught to write letters home. In the afternoons the boys take up practical work in Agricul- . tore under a trained agriculture man that was secured for the school t after a year and a half was spent in getting the right man. There are three hundred and twenty acres of i ground to work, and the work Is done on the apprentice system in three classes. ’ The boys in Class "C” learn to K clean stables and work of that na- rture, here the boys are paid 5c per E'hour for their services. In class “B"’ they learn to plough and handle horses, and receive 7%c per hour, from this class they go into will hurt, so we have made a law that anything that is broken will be charged against the boys’ account so that he will have to pay for it out of his earnings. Wc let 45 out of 70 at the school go home for Christmas, and they stayed from 5 to 10 days. The fares of the boys were pooled and every boy had to work to earp the money to take him home. We refused to let a number of boys go home whose parents sent them money because the boys did net work for the privilege. Out of the 45 boys that went home every one re turned on or .before the time his leave expired. The subjective side of the school is gaged on points, a boy to hold a permanent room must average a certain number of points and a head boy must have a higher average than the acquired by the show or field crop competition and to employ departmental judges for all live stock.

The exhibition of club swinging by Misses Blanche and Coza Tackel of Zenda, added much to the program. At the conclusion of the play a vote of thanks was tendered to the actors by Rev. Dr. R. G. Peever, pastor of the church, and a light lunch was served by the ladies to S t Paul’s Young People Held Interesting Meeting Class where they specialize and take up gardening, fruit-raising, poultry rairing, etc., for which the remuneration is 10c per hour. Be- ptdes the practical work in Agricul ture they take up the theory in their study periods. The same idea ap- felies to engineering and motor mech anics. As far as possible we try to make the work vocational. We get the boys under a man that will work with them and the school itself fe geared up for vocational guidance. The idea of paying the boy for bls services is something new- We do not pay the boy in actual money but hv ’ other fellows.conduct the school on the principal, “You meet our requirements and we will make it worth your while to do it.” We believe that if the boys keep on doing useful things it will be as hard ■ for them to stop doing those things as it would be to break A bad habit.” In closirx? Dr. Reanan read a letter written by one of the boys to a chum telling how things were carried on at the school and how he would like his chum to ar range to come there, saying, “You won't regret it.” The thanks of the club was ex- tended^to the speaker by Kiwanian R.

The interest in the games among the hoys is at the highest pitch and more support from the older folks should be forth coming to encourage the boys. Jhey must be financially backed and through the efforts of Dr. R. A. Wil liams, Fred Noe and James Knapp, the league was formed, and each boy was given a number of tickets to dispose of at any sum the pub lic wished to contribute to the cause/ The boys have raised about enough to carry them through the season, but anyone desiring to give a donation to the league can do BO by leaving it with the officers.
