TO FILL SECOND CAR
FOR WESTERN RELIEF
A car-load of foodstuffs for West
ern relief was loaded at the Exeter
depot on Monday and Tuesday of
this week. The farmers of the com
munity and others have made a most
generous response to the appeal and
as a result a well-balanced car is on
its way west. The load was made
up of potatoes, turnips, apples, beans
flour, salt, sugar, onions, cabbages,
carrots, honey, canned fruit and can
ned goods, soap, etc. The farmers
in the vicinity of Dashwood made a
splendid contribution. The response
was so great that one car was not
able to hold it all and two-tliirds of
another car-load is now in storage
at the station. A second car has been
ordered and it is expected that it
will be loaded on Monday and Tues
day of next week. A further call is
being sent out for sufficient supplies
to fill the second car. Residents in
the vicinity of Grand Bend, Crediton
and Centralia are loading a car at
Centralia on Thursday of this week.

DIED IN SEAFORTH
Large congregations were present
for both services in Caven Presby
terian church on Sunday on the oc
casion of their 73rd anniversary.
The special preacher for the day
was Rev. Kenneth McLean, of Wing
ham, who delivered two very approp
riate 'sermons. The choir under the., leadership .of Mrs. J. G. Cochrane*
furnished splendid music and were
ably assisted by Mr. and Mrs. C. R.
Howard, of New York. Two anthems
were sung at the morning service,
Mrs. C. R. Howard taking the solo
part in one and Miss K. Strang and
Jas. Francis sang a duet in the
other. Mrs. Howard also favored
with a solo. At the evening service
two anthems were sung with Mr.
Howard and Miss Strang taking the
solo parts in one while B. Cousins
and G. Cochrane took the solo parts
in the other and Mrs. Sillery, Mrs.
Campbell and Mr. Howard singing a
trio. Mr. and Mrs. Howard also sang
a.duet. Main .Street United Church
withdrew their morning service and
iTrivitt Memorial church was closed
for the evening ancr the congrega
tions united with Caven for the oc
casion. Rev. Mr. Young, .of Carmel
Church, Hensail, assisted at the ev
ening service.
Mr. McLean, of Wingham, deliv
ered very impressive sermons. At
the morning service he took for his
subject Jacob’s experiences as rec
orded in Genesis, chapter 2S, deal
ing especially with verse 17: “How
dreadful is this place, this is none
other than the house of God, and
this is the gate of Heaven.” The
speaker also dealt particularly with
the last three verses of the chapter.
“This is none other than the house
of God” said Jacob. What then con
stitutes the house of God? It is the
place where God especially meets
with his people; his church, the place
where there is communion, fellow
ship and inspiration—where God
comes to his own, blessing them and
fitting them for the duties of lite.
The preacher then spoke of Rever
ence “How dreadful is this place.”
The divine awe that conies to us in
God’s House. We may go into mag
nificent churches or stately houses
of worship and feel a certain awe of
the building but it is not necessarily
the divine awe; the awe that comes
through the presence of a sense of
God. We must cultivate reverence.
We must teach our children to be
reverent; to have the proper respect
for the house of God.

him and give to his cause. The ac
