But the Appointments Made by Presbytery At a meeting of the Presbytery of Huron held in Wesley-Willis United Church, Clinton, the committee on evangelism and social service brought in the following recommendations; That this Presbytery desires to put itself on record as being unalterably opposed to the present law granting a larger proportion of the taxes to the support of separate schools: That we commend to our people for their sympathy and financial support the work of the Lord’s Day Alliance in all its phases: That we urge the re­ vival of family worship in the homes of our people. Harold J. Snell, B.A., and Walter Shaw, B.A., were recommended to the London Conference for ordina­ tion at its <meeting in London early in June.

That is about the best speech we have heard for many a day. In nine cases out of ten, whatever wise thing most of us say, we'd have done humanity greater service by remaining silent.

E, A. Townsend, of Stratford, was elected as president; J. S. Whiteford, of «St. Maiys, was appointed as secretary, and F. Apel, of Sebringville was elected as treas­ urer, Representatives were present from Oxford, Elgin and Middlesex branches of the organization. Mr. P. B. Lowry, of Rodeny, Ont., ap­ pointed as president of the Domin­ ion Organization gave an interest­ ing talk dealing with Rural Con­ ditions in general and commented on the reason Association its purpose sent tender age rate that he hoped would be of better satisfaction to he Govern­ ment, the Mail Couriers and all concerned, Thus doing away with the distress now being experienced by a number of mail couriers who have contracted too cheap and who later learned that they had made a great mistake. In many cases they begin to neglect their duties, or in other words they are actually work­ ing for the sack. While the Supt. and the Inspector are ever busy en­ deavoring to force them to finish their contract and deliver the mail in a mannei' that is something near satisfactory to the conditions of their contract. A short discussion fol­ lowed the address when finally they decided to have a Mail Couriers’ Picnic in Queen’s Park, Stratford, on July 1st. Come and bring your wives and make the day a one. why the Mail Couriers was organized. He said was to abolish the pre­ system and adopt a mil- er, sister of the bride, and took her place under the arch of evergreens and flowers. The bride looked love­ ly in a gown of white net over taf­ feta. (She wore a veil of embroid­ ered net caught up with a head band of orange blossoms and carried a bouquet of pink and white roses, baby’s breath and fern. Jean Horner dressed in ankle length yellow silk ■crepe and carrying a bouquet of yel­ low roses and mauve sweet peas made a charming bride attendant of her sister. The groom was assisted by his cousin, Mr. Gordon Ratz, of Shipka. During the singing of the register Mr, Newell Geiger, of Zurich cousin of the bride sang: “I Love You Truly.” After the ceremony about sixrty guests were received to the dining room by Mrs. E. Krueger aunt of the bride, where the room and tables were daintily decorated in a color scheme of pink and white and where four girl friends, Kather­ ine MacLean, Ruth Hendrick, Greta Burmeister and Milverna Geiger were the table attendants. Among those presenT were friends and rela­ tives from London, and Welland. Later, the bridal couple left om a trip to Detroit and other’ points the bride travelling in a navy blue suit, grey hat with accessories to match.

HATTER BETTER THINK ABOUT IT Marshall according to the following extract from of the Toronto Globe had some suggestive things graduates: 'The hope that every one of the 117 graduates would go back to the land, was expressed by Hon. Duncan Marshall, Ontario min­ ister’ of agriculture, when he addressed a gathering which filled Memorial at the annual convocation of the Ontario Agricultural College on May 19. “ ‘I hope every last one of you boys will go back to the farm, I hope nobody gives you any other type of job. Go back and work with your father or as a hired man for somebody else,’ advised the minister who praised the pleasure of farm life and stated the boys from the farm are fitted to do work which cannot be done by others.” Cushy jobs are getting,scarcer.

VARN-O-LAC New One Coat Four-Hour For sale by H. S. WalterT Exeter TO THE POINT Bre’r Lome Eedy sighs deeply and then prints the following good sensible stuff in The Journal-Argus. Having been brought up a Methodist our big brother writes with restraint when he deals with lates and lazys. We’re in the same boat, but we’ll break loose some day and those petty larceners of other folks’ time will hear somethin’. We just can’t pick out the words or we’d do it now. “A lot of time is wasted through not starting meetings of com­ mittees, boards and public gatherings on the dot. Those who come on time get tired waiting and perhaps vow not to come again. Others, realizing that the meeting will start late, make it a point to come late. The result is that a whole evening is taken to deal with matters which might be disposed of in half an hour.’ Just So We sometimes hear the value of foreign missions challenged. But here we have Kagawa, Japanese evangelist, bringing to great mass meetings in Canada inspiring and heartening messages that must stimulate the work of the Christian Church in this country. Kagawa is sometimes referred to as the most influential Christian of his time. And Kagawa is a product of Canada’s Christian Mis­ sions in Japan. , * * * * * * * * THE NEW POLICY Has Ontario reached the stage at which consolidation rather than expansion must be her guiding principle? If this stage has arrived nothing but trouble will come of sitting down on the school of do-nothing. Have we enough or nearly enough paved highways? Have we a sufficient number of or nearly a sufficient number of large bridges? Are we supplied with public buildings? What is the trend of our school 'population? Is the proportion of 'Our High School and Collegiate Institute population exceeding that of our Public School population a term of years’ reckoning being the basis of our judgment We have heard the phrase “Ontario is in her infancy” displaced by the phrase “Ontario is in her youth”. Is it now time to speak of Ontario’s adult life? Some municipalities in the Province passed the youthful stage of development years ago but failed to realize hat the time of ma­ turity had arrived. The result was either a loss of business life or an overbuilding that made living conditions difficult. The new day came with its fine possibilities of adaption to new prosperity only to pass away with its story of a deserted village, neglected farms or of towns degrading themselves to the status of a Sleepy Hollow. Wideawake communities seized opportunity by the fore­ lock and are now progressive and well-doing. Whether we like it or not, new conditions are imposing themselves upon us. Crudities in business and schools and churches and in social life simply must be sloughed off. Happy is the district that sees the handwriting on the wall. It is folly to be at ease in Zion.

THE LATE SAMUEL JACKSON .Samuel Cory Jackson, aged about 60 years, died in the Scott Memorial Hospital Sunday after members of his family had found him lying in a pool of blood in his Egmondville home. Mr. Jackson, well known Seaforth photographer, cut his throat while his sister and niece with whom he lived were attending church in Egmondville Sunday morning. ■Suffering from a nervous condi­ tion for the past year, Mr. Jackson had been in poor health and it is understood that he had threatened to committ suicide on former occa­ sions. No inquest will be held. Mr. Jackson’s home in Egmond­ ville is about a mile and a quarter frbm his Seaforth studio. Mr. Jack- son was at one time ‘prominent in athletic circles in Egmondville. He had been manager of the football team and at one time was always among the foremost boosters in any athletic endeavour.
