Cuninghazne's home town is Clinton, on Highway 4, one of the Ontario arteries leading to the summer playgrounds of the Bruce. Peninsula—and thousands of acres of good Bruce cedar.

"A problem has been the darkening effect of the weather on the tables' finish. John Cuninghame is working on this problem and this summer will test several nevv models. "We're retaining Bruce cedar for all but the table tops," ex- plained John. "For the tops we are trying British Columbia 'val- 4 ley' red cedar and using a differ- ent surface-protecting technique in an effort to lick the discolor- ing action of the elements and retain that 'light honey' finish. As well as Ontario's wayside picnic tables, John also makes, in his Owen Sound factory, 'trade name "Cuningharne Industries," cedar lawn and veranda furni- ture, such as umbrella tables, lawn tables and chairs, and for the living -room, chesterfield suits, coffee tables, etc.; also bedroom furniture.

TEMPERANCE The only y soundly Christian ap- proach to strong drink is abstin- ence. A man is responsible to God and to Society to make the best possible use of his, strength and his abilities. The chances are that he will not do this if he muddles his brain with alcohol. Abstinence is one guarantee that he can-measure up to this respon- sibility. For the influence he ex- erts on others, his example is his most effective medium of in- fluence. He may be able to handle his liquor but in the company there are some who are fighting a losing battle against 'liquor and there may be young people who have never touched it. If he is considerate and if he has any con- science about it he will abstain for their sakes. In the last analy- sis abstinence is the Christian approach to strong drink.
