Rev. A. E. Holley, of ’Main
Street United Church, gave the
address and Rev, Donald Sin
clair, pronounced the benedic
tion.At Hurondale, Rev. H. J. Snell
conducted the service inside the
school and the Huronaires sang.
Wreaths were placed on the
cenotaph by Tom Pryde for On
tario; Mrs. Carman Cann, Hur
ondale; Wellington Brock, Us
borne and Bert Borland.for the
Legion. Legion President Fred
Darling was master of ceremon
ies.
Attending the morning church
service at Main Street Church,
the Legion, Auxiliary, Girl
Guides and Cubs marched from
the Memorial Hall to the
church, led by parade marshall
E. D. Bell. Flagbearers were Har
vey Pfaff and Robert Jeffery.
Rev. A. E, Holley took for his
theme “In Flander’s Fields” by
John McCrea. He said the fallen
heroes had thrown the torch, of
freedom and peace to the living
and that '‘it is a terrible obliga
tion to us in this day.”
“They are other ideologies,”
he stated, “that are trying to tell
us we are not free. They are
trying to capture the minds and
bodies of men.”
He drew a parallel between
the death of Christ on a cross
and the death of our soldiers
whose graves are marked by
crosses. “They believed,” he said
“that they were fighting a war
to end wars, and since then we
have had an even bigger war
which has cut deep into a whole
generation.”
“We should write into our
way of life that theirs was a
struggle in the cause for theo
logical principals, a struggle re
volving around Christ.”
He went on to point out “If
we are to really mean what we
made when we set aside Novem
ber 11 for Armistice Day, we
must transmit > the . symbol that
it has become into its real mean
ing.”
Flowers were placed on the
altar in memory of the late Pte.
Verne Harness.
At the cenotaph, the Legion
was joined by a flight of RCAF
men. After the service, the par
ade marched past the flag at the
Post Office with Sqdn. Ldr. Mc
Clure taking the salute. Sup
porting him were FO. Caddy and
Legion President Fred Darling.
A large congregation was pre
sent for the Remembrance Day
service in James St. United
Church Sunday morning. A jun
ior choir delighted the congre
gation with their singing. The
Pastor, Rev. H. J. Snell display
ed a cheque for $1000 presented
to the building fund of the
church by the ladies who catered
to the recent Y. P. conference.
Mr. Snell announced that anni
versary services will be held Sun
day, November 25 th when Rev.
Walter E. Donnelly of Winnipeg,
a former pastor, will be
speaker.
