address on what took place at the
recent meeting of the Synod of Ham
ilton & London, which was held in

■boys and girls was entitled “Doors”,
and -the choir sang an anthem. At
the evening service members of the
I.O.O.F. from Hensail and district
were in attendance. Mr. Weir
preached a most appropriate ser
mon for the occasion, taking his
text from Matthew 22 : 37-39, “Thou
shalt love the Lord ‘thy God with
all thy heart and thou shalt love
thy neighbor as thyself.” A duet by
Mrs, Malcolm Dougall and W. A.
MacLaren, entitled “I Will Lift up
Mine Eyes” and an anthem by the
choir were the special musical fea-‘
tures of the service.

COMMUNITY NIGHT AT
HURONDALE
an-
A very successful community
| night in connection with the Fed-
I eration of Agriculture, was held in
S.S. No. 1, Usborne, on May 1st
under the chairmanship of Dan
Dew. The committee in charge pro
vided the following program: Com
munity song, “O Canada,”; violin se
lections by William Hyde, of High
way No. 4, with Miss Bell as accom
panist; dialogue by Grace Beckler,
Bill Kestle and Bill Reynolds; “The
Educated Horse”, by Rev. Weir, K.
Hicks' and 'Claude BioWes, all of
Hensall. The highlight of the even
ing was selections by the Huron-
dale orchestra with Dan ’Dew as
their leader. The guest speaker,
Rev. M. A. Hunt, of Exeter, spoke
on “Citizenship”, making one real
ize how close Adolf Hitler’s eyes
are on Canada and whatever we >do,
honor it as never before, for ■ Can
ada is one of the finest countries in
the world. It was decided to dis
continue the meetings until early
in October. A picnic will be held
on the school grounds on June 26.
An old-fashioned geography match
was directed by Mrs. Har.vey Hyde,
after which luncheon was served.

Not Her Style
Granny was lecturing her grand
daughter on her selection of a dress,
and, among other faults, told her it
was much too short.
Getting fed up, the girl protested:
“But granny, didn’t you ever set
your cap at a young man?”
“Perhaps I did,” retorted the old
lady, “but never my kneecap.”

REGULATE COURTS
TO CONSERVE GAS
Travelling magistrates have in
troduced a plan to conserve gaso
line. Last Thursday, for the second
week in succession, county police
court sessions were cancelled at
Goderich. There was not sufficient
business to warrant Magistrate Ma
kins making the trip from Strat
ford. His worship makes a survey
by telephone, assesses fines for min
or uncontested cases and adjourns
others to a day when an accumula
tion can be heard. This results in
one motor trip instead of several
as was the case in the pre-gasoline
ration ’days.
