seems to be a fine thing

100 Years Old
Service Sunday
The closing of 100 years of
Presbyterian Church life and
worship in the community of
Auburn is to be celebrated' in
a service on Sunday next, July
3 'at 11 a.m.
It was in 1860 that those
Who settled in the locality met
in a private home to lift their
hearts in praise, in the same
fashion as their fathers had
done across the seas. Then, in
the forest they erected a log
church. Many walked to it
guided ,by blazed trails, from
miles around.
As the community prospered,
a new building was erected,
more suitable to the needs of
the times.
Now looking back over 100
years the history of the church
in. Auburn reveals many inter-
esting facts and the influence
of the church is reflected in
'the life and service of her
people throughout the years.
Many of the highlights of the
century of service. are recorded
in a book of history, which will
be available to all wishing to
possess it.
A guest book will be open
for the signatures of all who
attend the celebration next
Sunday, It will be preserved
for future exhibition, at suc-
ceeding anniversary occasions.
The service next Sunday will
be conducted by Rev. Findley
G. Stewart, D.D., St. Andrew's
Presbyterian Church, Kitchen-
er, ex-Moderator of the Gen.
eral Assembly of .Church in
Canada.
Quite a number of responses
Ito invitations haVe been receiv-
ed from former worshippers,
indicating their intentions to be
present at 'this service, and the
committee in charge will wel-
come all friends in the home
vicinity to join the congrega-
tion in this outstanding cele-
bration.
It was announced today by
John Berry, Goderich, that a
total of $13,366.17 has been
contributed by Huron ,Ceunty
citizens in the Blitz for World
Refugee Year held in May. The
total represents approximately
$4,000 above the target as set
in March by the Huron County
committee in charge, of which
Mr. Berry acted as treasurer.
The blitz was unique- in that
Huron County was the only
county in the province of. Ors,
tario that was organized by a
group of local citizens for the
purpose of raising money to as-
sist the Canadian Committee
for World Refugee Year to
help clear the refugee camps
in Europe.
Mrs. Frank Fingland, Clin-
ton, who was instrumental in
organizing the blitz, described
the results' as "overwhelming".
"We are more than pleased
with the response," said Mrs.
Fingland, "although we do
know that there were many in
the county who were not con-
tacted. It was both amazing
Tenders Called Soon

ients, according to word' from
Queen's Park, in Toronto.

of necessity, and in a spirit of
compassion, continue to give
to these despairing people."

THE TOP STORY OF THE
County Home building is going
up steadily . . . Soon the only
part of the barn visible from
the road will be the roof and
the name "Huranco Farm" in
white on the red barn wall . . .
We look upon it each morning
. . . and in a way, hate to see
the changes which are coming
to pass . . . However, if the
end result is more comfort for
the elder citizens living there,
any change is to be admired . .

LOTS OF FUN HAS NO doubt
been had at the expense of the
Jones Boy, as Princess Marg-
aret's husband has been called
`. His past history has been
delved into pretty thoroughly
by everyone' interested in the

vised that way back in 1942,
Mr. Armstron-Jones was a
member of a Scout troop
known as' the 30th Reigate . . .

Manor . . . Since the Princess
was a Brownie, and Guide her-
