Exeter Well Represented At Plowing Match It can hardly he said that International Plowing Match Port Albert wound up in a blaze of glory for the last day of the .match was anything but a pleasant ope. Rain fell all Friday morning and it was not until the afternoon that the plowmen were able to go to work to demonstrate their skill for the final day. However there was a big banquet at night at which the prizes were -distributed and at which Hon. J. G. Gardiner was the principal Speaker, Floyd Steckley, of Stouffville, and Austin Nairn, of Munro, were the lqchy winners of the top medals and free trips to England with all expenses paid, financed by the -Sal­ ad a Tea Company and the Imperial Qil Co,® Wednesday was the (big day of the match on the occasion of the visit of the Governor-General. It was estimated that 80,0‘00 people were in attendance. Feeding the crowd was the -biggest problem. Of the exhibits which filled the four 'hangars anq compriseq farm equipment and farm products of all kinds Exeter had the best repre­ sentation of any place in the coun­ ty, The exhibit of Exeter Branch of Canadian Danners showing the numerous products canned was out­ standing and attracteq considerable attention. The collection pf antiques by Simon Sweitzer displaying pion­ eer farm machinery, buggies, bi­ cycles, and what have you was a constant source of attraction. Pic­ tures of his exhibit appeared in several daily papers. And last, but not least, was the exhibit of the Lakeview 'Poultry Farms with their feeds attractively displayed. We like to put in a plug, too, for South Huron, by again reminding readers that the Hon. James Gardiner is' an Usborne boy, at present being prominently mentioned as the suc­ cessor to Premier King. Prominent' in the making of plans for the' match were Percy Passmore and. Hugh Berry, of Usborne, Reeve Tuckey and R. B. Williams, town. the .at Enlarging Machine Mr. Bd.

Girl Guide Hike 'Everyone deserves a reward work, especially if that work is in the form of study. So last Wednes day the First Aid Class went on a hike—and what a hike! At four-thirty when the girls started out they- were all quite con fident that they could cook an ex­ cellent meal, and eat it. And some of them did. Shirley Thompson and Joan Batten cooked what smelled like a delicious pan of meat. Tihe rest of us—well, at least we cooked it. And Shirley Broom ate two help­ ings of her hamburg and egg com­ bination.

Successful Jubilee At Crediton Church (Continued from page 1>) Mrs. A. Gaiser poured the coffee. The evening .service closed the Golden Jubilee services which will remain for some time the high-wat­ er mark in the lives of those" who attended. Dr. Heininger brought the eve­ ning message -choosing for his text the words, “He that is not with me is against me. He that .gat'hereth not with me scattereth abroad.” This Represents on© of the most dif­ ficult passages of scripture in that it is so abrupt and- so final. There is no middle ground with Jesus Christ. We are either one or the other, for him or against" him. Dr. Heininger then threw .the light of the gospel upon men, calling -Chris­ tians to coriie out into the open where their allegiance to Christ can be sefen and to accept Christ so that in their own minds and in the minds of others there would be no doubt aS td what they were. The male chorus furnished the music at the morning service and a choir at the evening. Offerings far exceeding the goal were dedicated at the foot ot the cross during? the week’s ser­ vices.
