Comrpunity’s Oldest
Church Celebrated
80th Anniversary
Anniversary Services . At South Kln-»
loss Church' On Sunday Marked,
Important Event And Recall
Growth Of Congregation Since
.'. Building Of First Log Church 4
Score Years Ago. . ’ ,
Redecorated for the occasion and
with the effective use of flowering
plants and a profusion of spring
/lowers, the auditorium of South Kin
loss Church was in particularly im
pressive dress, when large congre
gations gathered on Sunday, to mark
the 80th anniversary of this congre^
established in this community.
The first church ’ was a rough log
structure built op the east side of
the “Gravel Road” about a half
mile north of the Second conces
sion. It was built in. 1856 just nine
years after the recordirig of the
first white men, members of a, gov
ernment survey gang, penetrating
this community of virgiii forest, and
-4vho-^wefe--foliow.ed~five-^vears„.,later:.
by the first settlers.
. On Sunday, as Rev. D. J. Lane of
Goderich, and a native of this com
munity. conducted forceful services,
he« reviewed briefly historical details
Of the growth of the congregation
and named many who have, and are
still carrying ori. the work of the
church. To the youriget people pre
sent. this"" was \heard with interest,
to the older ones, no doubt it. re
called fond mempries, many of which
quite possibly, wfere tinged with sor
row. ,. ..■■ ' .......
This, historical sketch was repeated
at.the evening service, and in mem
ory, ofall those who have served
the church even in the most huriible
degree, the congregation sang.
“Faith,. Of Our Fathers. Holy Faith”.
The choir contributed special an
thems at both services, with . Cam-
eron Geddes as soloist at the even-
ing service, and Miss Mary McCon
nell as organist.
It is ; only in very recent -years
that an organ has been used to"“asr
sist in the service bf song, and the
congregation still clings tp the old
and beloved order bf service, by con-,
tinning to sing the psalms arid para
phrases without organ accompani
ment at each morning service. Lead
er of the choir, or precentor, for
over 50 years has been Jack “Sandy”
MacDonald. \ .
At the mornink service. Rev. Mr.
Lane, warned that in this present
restless-period we are in danger of
losing some worthwhile inheritances,
unless we possess the courage to
say “we. will not surrender”.
Some forces that are: threatening
our inheritance, he cited, as those
tending to destroy the fidelities of
family life; those trying to disposses
us of pur moral standards, as taught
us by our forefathers from the
“Great arid Good Old Book”; those
trying to rob us of our faith and
those leading us to the desecration
of the Sabbath Day.
Many of our failures of today, are
being blamed on the young peoble.
that; shouldn’t be. he Said. To a great
degree^ it is the carelessness of ? the
older .people, he added.
“Havb you the courage?” he asked
in closing,, for if we shirk our re
sponsibilities, the next generation
will be the poorer of it and we will
be traitors to our faith and our in
heritance.
Rev. Mr. Lane, delivered another
stirring sermon to a large congrega
tion in the evening, when the Presby
terian Church' here withdrew its
service.

On /that night of an empire’s grief.
They quietly relieved the sentinels
And stood till the next relief.

And Gloucester and.Kent beside:
And the fourth of that band of bro

Was the king of our empire wide.

Again we° poirit out, that' when

it takes a good deal of the week in
setting up matter for the paper and
all cannot be done in the last couple
of days before publishing date.
Press secretaries should .kindly
note that reports of meetings held
on Friday, for instance, should be in
the printers’ hands by. Saturday, or
not later than Monday. The last day
or two before press day the linotype
is busy setting last minute riews 'so^
tha| it is usually difficult arid some
times impossible to handle press sec
retaries’ budgets which should have
been in the printers’ hands several
days earlier and which cannot be

District Resident Holds
Irish Sweepstake Ticket
Horse He Drew Was Not Expected
To Be A Starter In Race -Yester
day, But Holder Assured Of At
Least $2,200 Anyway—Ticket Sold
By > Local Merchant After Much
persuasion
I A telegram direct , from Ireland,
ori .Saturday, informed an Ashfield,
resident that he had drawn a horse
in the Irish Free/ State hospital
sweepstake, to be run Wednesday,
(yesterday), at Epsom Downs, Eng
land. While hisv horse was ri.ot expect
ed' I to be a starter,, nevertheless, the*
ticket is worth at least $2,215.
Owing to anti-lottery legislation
in. Canada, the names of Canadians
drawing horses, are hot announced;
and are identified only by rioms-de
-plume and a number.
The lucky, local party was one of
more than 50 Canadians holding
tickets on horses. Prizes available'in
this famed Derby total over 6 mil-"
lion dollars. First, prize is about;
$150,000. The winners of, the big
prizes' are determined by how the
horses place in the big race, •■
But every holder of a ticket drawn
on a horse will receive at least £443.
or^about $2,215, whether the horse
rims or t not. Thus the local' .party
while his horse is riot mentioned as
a nicely starter, is certain of a fin
ancial boost, that would cause any
of ys to wax a bit gleeful to say the
lbast. How did It fell to receive that
message? Well, can’t you imagine?
The tickets were sold by a local
business man, but the. lucky ticket
was disposed of. for him by a next-
door business associate. At that it
was only after much persuasion that
the eventually lucky holder.Was coax-
, ed into. parting with $2.50 to pur
chase the first sweepstake ticket he
had ever held. '•
The sale was recorded under the
name of the man who received the
tickets, and h’e will receive, it is Ata- !
ted- £25, or approximately $125.00 as.

community’' then known as the
“Queen’s Bush”.
Recorded data, tells us that Murd
och MacKenzie was .the prime mover
iri the erection of the first church
iri the community, a little Jog church
built eighty years, ago, just beyond
the Second Concession. He believed
it made a great difference whether
a church or a tavern got the. first
start- and consequently"he" and^others:
prevented a tavern being built where
the ‘Big Church” now stands, by rais
ing eriough moririy to buy the prop
erty, at a $1.50 an. acre. To close
the deal, to men had to gp to South
ampton, a -round journey Of about
100 miles.
The little leg church, without’ a
flobr, and with round logs for seats,
supplied the requirements as a
House of Worship for seven years
before the Big Cjhurch was built.
This church was replaced by the pre-
_s.ent„e.difice^/which was_d£di£ate.cL orc
May 26th, 1912,. during the pastorate
of Rev. Finlay MacLennan, who left
about a year later after a pastorate
of 25 years;
In the early years of the congre
gation there . was no resident * minis-.
-ter until the induction of Rev. John
McN.abb in 1867, His short ministry
was followed by that of Rev. Dun-
cari Carperon, induct"ed‘"Ti ve': years'
later ana who . preached in both Eng
lish and Gaelic, and conducted even
ing—services ip Lucknow arid, which
later led to the separation of the.
two, congregations > when an effort
was madq to move all services to'
Xucknow. Clergymen ’who followed-
.were, . Rev, Alexander Ma*cKenzie,
Rev. Finlayson McLenna-n, Rev: J.
G. Reid, Rev. K. A. Gollan, Rev.
rJohn A. James, Rev. A. K. McLaren,
and the present, minister, Rev. J. L.
Burgess.
It was during the pastorate , of
Rev. James that the organ Was first
used in the church, and at the same;
time the Communion Cup replaced'
by individual glasses. The silver
coirimunion service has been preserv
ed and is displayed, now in the church
While nine clergymen have minis
tered to the congregation, seven have
entered the ministry to serve in other
fields. They are. most of Whom have
