It was fitting tribute to a Monarch who had lived in the hearts of his people, through 16 l'Ong and difficult years; • Clinton Town Council, Canad- ian Legion and Ministerial Assoc- iation, combined lr arranging this public service, with assistance be- ing given by a token detachilient from RCAF Station ---as :detailed on Page Nine — and the Boy Scouts. A parade from the Legion Hall was led by the Bannockburn Pipe Band. His Worship Mayer G. WI Nott heel proclaimed a Day of Mourn- ing, and all places of business in town were closed. Rev. Hugh C. Wilson, president of Clinton Ministerial Association, acted as chairman. Mrs. Bert Boyes was pianist. A combined church choir assisted. Mayor Nott gave the call to worship. Rev. Mr. Wilson pro- nounced the invocation. The hymn, "Unto the Hills", was sung. • Rev, A. G. Eagle gave the Scripture reading, Rev. John E. Ostrom led in prayer. The liSrmri, 'For all the. Saints", was sung. Rev. D. J. Lane made the ad- dress of appreciation of the late Sovereign. F/L C. le Harding, RCAF Chaplain, led in a brief prayer.

Rev. 1D. J. Lane's Address Rev, D. 3. Lane's moving ad- dress is recorded for -posterity: . "We are assembled here this morning with one mind and heart, as multitudes over the whole earth d're assembling today, with one' common purpose in view, namely, to worship Almighty God, and to pay honor to our late beloved Sovereign, King George VI, by the Grace of God, defender of the faith. - "We thank God today, now that the King's earthly life is over, that the acts which history will write concerning him, are acts of faith in God, acts of self- less service, love and devotion to the highest welfare of his people, offered on the altar of his life, under great stress and strain con- tinually. "We thank God that in it all, he counted not the cost to him- self, neither his own comfort, but that in prayer and supplication and fellowship with God, he de- voted himself to the people whom God had given him to lead, throughout our Commonwealth, during one of the darkest, yet most glorious periods of our history. "It may well be, that our late King will go down in history as George, the courageous. "He demonstrated great cour- age, when he picked up the sceptre of Kingship, after his brother,. had laid__ it aside. He showed great courage, during the great struggle which followed so soon after his coronation, and he showed great courage during his, brief Illness. "Those who listened last Christ- mas to his labored words, will remember the beauty injected in- to his address, by its very effort of the ailing King, to make it. The long pauses between the' sentences, the heavy breathing of this sick man; the ring of courage, as the words were pushed forth: "The last talk of His Majesty to his millions, of now mounting peoples, was inspiring and beaut- iful in the extreme and far super- ior to any smooth flow of gblden oratory.

' "His triumph as a• King, was the triumph of the man. •"Wearing the white flower of a blameless 'life, Before a thousand peering littlenesses In that fierce light, which beats upon a throne. "He seemed to be a shy man, thrust into the pomp and cir- cumstances of Kingship through a strange twist of events, But if shy; he was also a good man. He continually recognized that though as a King, he was a sub- ject in a greater Kingdom, the Kingdom of God, through Jesus Christ, His Saviour. "The Commonwealth of Nations has its own- idealistic standard, regarding the behaviour. of The Sovereign. May I say that 'that ideal is far above the standard of our own behaviour.' "It was a great triumph of George VI, that at no time, were the people of his realms ever ashamed of him, or embarrassed by him. • "Before he spoke, we knew he would speak in the right way. And befole he acted, we knew he would da the right thing. We had every reason to be proud of him, and to feel safe with him, as now we mourn his pas- sing, "And here may I say that he was both happy and fortunate in his family life, which he loved so dearly. "It must have been a great comfort to him, as his two daughters grew to womanhood and when Royal children were born to our present 'Queen Eliz- abeth. "His wife, now Queen Mother, was ever a most wonderful sup- port to him, especially in .the dif- ficulties which beset his kingly pathway. "King George lived and reign- ed in stormy days. No one knew better than he the plots being laid against the nation by buf- foons and rogues occupying high places among jealous adversaries. It is a tribute to the King's guide ance, that he was equal to all those tempestuous times. "One of England's greatest poets once wrote that Icings are like stars: They rise, they set, they have the worshipof the world, But ne repose. "The words ring true of our late beloved Xing. Anticipating a. life Of quietusefulness, he was suddenly thrust into the light. He never wavered at the call of duty. The years has borne wit- ness of his faithfulness. He will be remembered among the great and good of England's Kinge; for in his person, he 'combined beauty and power, wisdom and love, and an enduring loyalty to God and his people.

Present were Commissioners Hugh R. Hawkins, 1951 chairman; W. E, odue, 1951 secretary; C. M. Shearing and A. J. McMurray, 1952 members with the above. Absent was Mayor G. W.

At the opening of the meeting, President Lorne Brown called for two minutes' silence in memory of His late Majesty King George VI, which was followed immed- iately by the singing of "God Save the Queen!" The Club Charter had been draped. Chief of Police Joseph Ferrand wrote thanking the Lioeis Club for . its cooperation in ploviding caps and belts for boy street crossing monitors, and also in providing free -tickets for skat- ing in Lions Arena.

It was addressed "To the 'Ratepayers"; "The Public 'Utilities Commis- sion resents the unwarranted tacks made made on the Commission by the Town Council,, at their meeting of February 11. "Thi.s is only a very clumsy attempt, on the part of the Fire and Water Committee, to cover up their stupidity, in purchasing a piece of equipment, erecting it on the Town Hall and paying for it, without first ascertaining what type of current was requir- ed to operate it and also if this type of current was available. "The Public Utilities Commis- sion was never consulted before this equipment was purchased, and it was only after the Fire and Water Committee asked the Hydro Superintendent to connect the equipment, that we knew It was to operate on 220, time phase. When the chairman of the Fire and Water Committee' was informed that 220, three phase was not available at the Town Hall, he approached the Public Utilities Commission, asking that we make current available there. "We advised him that it would cost the Hydro users approx- imately $1,500 to do this, We suggested that they return the equipment and exchange it for 220, single phase, which is avail- able anywhere in town and this he agreed to do. "We were greatly surprised, when a few weeks later, we were called to a meeting in the Board Room, to meet with the chair - Man of the Rire and Water Com- mittee, the Mayor and the agent of the. equipment. The purpose of this meeting was to find out where, if any, 220, three phase current was available in town. "We advised them that this type of 'current was supplied only to Garon's Laundry and to the Hospital elevators. We ad- vised them to have the equipment taken down from the Town Hall and erected somewhere close to these lines and we would make he necessary connections, so that the equipment could be tested. "The chairman of the Park Board gave them- permission to make a temporary erection on the grand stand for this purpose. It was placed on the roof of the grand stand, the Public Utilities Commission making the necessary connections, and the test was made. The whole town knows the result of the test; inwas very unsatisfactory. "This was the last the Public 'Utilities Commission heard about the matter until it was aired in the Council meeting on Febru- ary 11. The Commission has co- operated in every way possible with. the Council. . Councillo Agnew's statement that 220, three phase current is available et the Hydro Office is untrue and as w stated at the opening of thi statement, it is only a clums attempt on the part of the Fir and Water Committee, to covet up for purchasing a piece equipment for $8eu peas the cos of erecting, taking down and re erecting. • "We certainly agree that the should be a meeting called an that it should be open to th public and the press, so that th ratepayers may know why all proximately $1,000 of their tax has been paid out for equipme which to date is useless.
