FLOWERS ARE BEAUTIFUL Lovers of flowers may have tlieir finer feelings filled with delight by wandering around our town looking at the displays of flower plots and gardens all over the village. One who hag taken notice of the growth of fowers from year to year will note the great improvement in the various varieties. Flor instance Gladioli that ten years ago were quite plain are now supplanted by varieties that are exquisitely beau­ tiful and some very large. Mrs. W. J. Ryckman had a blossom this week of the Salmon Blush variety that measured five inches across. Zinnias ten years ago were greatly disliked by many but at the present time there are many very beautiful flowers. Anyone at all interested in zinnias should see Mr. Isaac Carling’s garden. He will see some­ thing new and beautiful. Asters are showing up well this season. The 'displays of Petunias around many homes are a delight. Dixon-Nicholson The United Church at Sylvan was the scene of a pretty autumn wed­ ding, when Alice Louise, daughter of Mrs. and the late George Nichol­ son, -of West Williams was united in marriage to Clayton Meadd Dixon, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Dixon, of McGillivray. Rev. P. H. Lawson, of the Thedford and Sylvan United Churches officiated at the ceremony for which the church was effectively decorated with autumn flowers- in golden shades and itlies guest pews were marked with knots of pastel flowers. The bride, who was given in marriage by her ibrother, Morley Nichol-on, B.S.C., was charming in her gown of dvory satin and veil of silk embroidered net. Her bridal bouquet was of Talisman Roses. The young couple were unattended. This was the first wedding to be held in the Sylvan church. The ushers were Hugh Horner and 'Clarence Dixon. Miss Joy Nicholson sister of the bride played 'the wedding muic and during the signing --of the register, George Loft sang “Until.” Little Miss Marion Nicholson was a win­ some flower girl. Following the ceremony, a reception was held at the home of the bride’s mother, Sylvan Lodge Farm, which was pretty with early autumn flowers. For travelling, the bride donned a suit of nut brown crepe with acces­ sories to match. The. happy couple left on a motor trip to Cornwall, Montreal and other points east. Up­ on their return they will reside on the groom’s farm in McGillivray Township. Shingles!

FATALLY INJURED Harvey Robson, who was injured Wednesday last when .the car he was driving rammed the rear end of a transport truck on No. 4 Highway about three miles south of Clinton, died in the Clinton Public Hospital having failed to regain conscious­ ness. Deceased was returning from a visit to Western Fair, London, and was accompanied by Charles Brown Clinton, and Clarence Bridle and Philip Caster, of Goderich. The two latter escaped with minor cuts and bruises while Brown who was lid- ing in the front seat was seriously injured, receiving a fractured hip and several gashes. The trucks involved were owned by Epps Transport, • Clinton. One truck had become disabled and the driver, Douglas Kennedy, Clinton, had secured another truck to trans­ fer the load.

For the past three months, he, with his fath­ er had conducted a retail grocery business in Goderich and prior' to that (time, operated the Supertest Service Station -here. He was "born in Wroxeter tin 1906. Surviving are his parents, a brother, Roy, of the Royal Bank, London and two sisters, Mrs. Chas. Cole London and Mrs. Leonard Mc- Knigh-t, -of Clinton. ISAIAH COUNSELS RULERS Sunday, Sept 23.—- Isaiah 7, 31, 3 6, and 37. Golden Text * Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed -on Thee; because he trnstetli in Thee. (Isa. 26:3.) The Bible, is a book for kings, for presidents, for dictators and all rul- erss. There is noo ther book in the world of such value to them in their gloat and divinely-given responsibil­ ities. If -only all rulers would study it zealously and heed its counsels, this old world would be a different place, and mankind would be a dif­ ferent people. The four lesson chapters record accurately the attitude and actions of several kings, including some of Israel and Judah, God’s people, and others of unbelieving and godless nations. We are told of the rise and fall of these various peoples, their victories and tlieir defeats, and it is plainly declared that God i-s back of ■all this. Rulers who leave out God, forgetting that He is the greatest factor in their national responsibil­ ities and actions, must learn this lesson sooner or later, whether they will or not. A king of Syria made an alliance with Pekah, king of Israel, to unite their forces in a campaign against Judah and (Jerusalem, the southern kingdom from which the ten north­ ern tribes of Israel had broken away almost three centuries earlier. Ahaz was King -of Judah, and he was ter­ rified to learn of the attack that was to be made upon his nation and captial. But God gave His prophet Isaiah a reassuring message. ‘It slia-ll not stand, neither shall it come to pasts,” said the Lord of the proposed attack upon Jerusalem. And then, in confirmation of His predicted protection, God gave not only King Ahaz, but the whole “House of David”—that is, the na­ tion of Judah, the ipromiise of the greatest event that was ever to oc­ cur in her history or in the life of ■•humanity. “Behold” a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call His name Immanuel.” This was the inspired prophecy of the virgin birth of Christ, made cen­ turies before He came to earth. Some critical writers have tried to •diOw that this was not a prophecy of our Lord’s virgin birth, on the ground that the Hebrew word here translat­ ed “virgin” can mean simply “ma,id. en” or “young married women.” But the late Prof. Robert Dick Wilson, that giant of Bibical scholarship and master of all the ancient languages related to the literature of the Bible has shown conclusively that this criticism is untenable, and that the translation “virgin” is not only pos­ sible, hut required in this connection -Furthermore, the rxuestion is set­ tled with finality for all who accept the Bible’is own claims for its divine inspiration. For we read in Mat­ thew, after the detailed account of the virgin Mary’s bearing a .son who should be called Jesus: “How all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being inter­ preted is, God with us” (Matt. 1:18- 23.) ' Throughout these lesson chapters two facts are made plain. God pro­ tects not only His own chosen people Israel and Judah when He will, but other nations also when He will. And God judges nations, both His chos- etli people and others, bringing de­ feat and distress and punishment upon them, when He will. In other words, the destiny of nations is in God’s hands. He hais pledged Himself to bless those na­ tions that really trust in Him and seek to do His will. He has pledged Himsdlf to punish or destroy such nations a,s deliberately ignore and reject Him. Why are rulers and nations so slow to believe this? “Woe is them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither ask the Lord!” That was the word of warning to Judah; and it is just as true and needed a warning to nations toddy. It does not mean that nations should be without military defense; but it -does mean that they should put God first, recognizing and worshipping Him as God and Lord, and seeking above all else to know and do His will. These lesson chapters tell of mili­ tary defeats and military successes, and they show that God is back of such events. Military commanders know this only too well; they know that they have omeimes won vic­ tories and could not be accounted for in any natural way, but only by divine intervention and protection. And equally true is it that military commanders who were absolutely confident of their strength and as­ sured success have gone down into ■defeat, and have seen no natural ex­ planation ,of this. Here is another searching word: “Now the Egyptians are men, and not Go-d; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord shall stretch out His hand both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is lielpen shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.” Throughout Isaiah runs the shin­ ing stream of prophecy that, in some coming day, Israel and Judah will return to God in repentance and faith, and then indeed will enter up­ on their greatest and crowning ex­ perience of national righteousness and prosperity. The engagement is announced of Miss Iva Lavrene Nott, A. T. C. M., daughter of Mr and Mrs. G-. W. Nott of Seaforth to Mr. Bert Russell, only son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Boyes, Brucei’ield, the wedding to take place September 22nd.
