Young Peoples’ Service
High hopes were entertained oc
casioned by the announced coming
of Mr. Benson Sutter the president
of the Huron Presbytery Young
Peoples Work, With him were Miss
Vera Decker and Miss Margaret
Henry both executive officers of
the Union. After the distinguished
visitors had been afforded a hearty
welcome by the minister, the Rev.
Lawrence I-I. Turner, the president,
Kenneth Baker guided the destin
ies of the evening making plans for
the next gathering which will ex
ploit to the full the claims of St.-
Valentine’s Day. Please be on the
alert for a later announcement re
garding this. After the business Mr.
Benson Sutter took over leading
the young people both in singing
of songs and also Negro Spirituals.
This young man bubbles over both
with vocal and instrumental talent.
The boys and girls were not long
catching on to the new songs and
spirituals for they sang them ex
traordinarily well. Thus limbered
up and feeling quite at home the
worship period was conducted by
the visitors the central theme being
“Surrender and Service.” Mr. Sutt
er illustrated his address exceeding
ly well pointing out that just as
Mendelsohn astonished the owner of
the prized organ upon which he,
played so Jesus Christ, allowed to
play upon the strings of a surren
dered personality would pour forth
undreamed of beauty and frang-
rance in terms of Discipleship with
him. The effect of his address upon
his hearers was to be observed in
the wrapt attention which they ac
corded him and one cannot help
but feel that new cords of service
were touched which, will vibrate to
the wellbeing of this Young
People’s Union and the future well
being of the Kingdom. There can
be no question but that Benson
Sutter is the right man in the right
place “May his tribe increase”. All
three of the executives were accor
ded expressions of appreciation.
Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Lamport were
theii’ usual hospitable selves revel
ling in the fellowship which the
young people afforded. A luscious
lunch was served and as per usual
the famous Lamport doughnuts were
in evidence. They too received the
thanks of the Union by way of the
Minister.
A haunting feai’ occasioned by
the gradual deflation of a tire was
more than realized when Benson
Sutter made ready to return home
—yes, his eyes beheld a “flat.” An
S.O.S. call was unnecessary for the
Shipka boys got busy and in no time
flat the rebel tire was removed and
a loyal one put on. Noticeable
among the boys was Tom Lamport
garbed in overalls and wearing rub
ber boots. Well done boys of Ship
ka, that’s the spirit. The girls view
ing the situation through the win
dow, afforded the necessary inspira
tion. And thus ended ,a delightful
evening.

10,000 Citizens
This short message is addressed to you 10,000 citizens in Southwestern
Ontario who have a direct interest in the future of the Beet Sugar Industry.
You 10,000 citizens include farmer-growers, field labourers, truckers,
weighers, factory workmen, merchants and all others who directly benefit
when the industry is working to normal capacity. You are the people who
receive a small or large proportion of the four or five millions of dollars
which are distributed as returns from the industry’s production—in each
year of full scale operations.
To you we say that, because production fell to an all-time low in 1943,
it is no time to quit. The Dawn of Peace is still below the horizon but it is
coming closer every day. With it will arrive a time of vast readjustment.
Some two million persons, including our fighting men, will need to be re
absorbed into civilian pursuits. Jobs will be in demand again and the beet
sugai' industry produces jobs—lots of jobs and in a wide variety of work!
So don’t give up your interest in beet sugar, whatever that interest
may be! Raise your voice in support of this industry with its great com
munity benefits! The time will come—perhaps sooner than we think—when
we shall all need those benefits!
