Dallas Cameron, of Strathroy, Preached Both Morning and Evening Large congregations were present at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church on Sunday for the Anniverysary Ser­ vices. The Church was beautifully decorated with autumn flowers. The special speaker was Rev. Dallas Cam­ eron of Strathroy, Moderator of the Synod of Hamilton and London. At the morning service, Mr. Cam­ eron chose for his Scripture reading the first chapter of Hebrews and en­ titled his sermon "The Unused Book” taking his text from Hebrews, chapter 1, verses 1 and 2, “God, who at sund­ ry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers of the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by 'whom also he made the world.’’ God speaks to us in many ways, the coming of the seasons, the flowers of spring, the growth in the fields. God had spoken through the Bible in man’s own language. It is God’s Book and it is man’s book and is applicable to all ages. God Revelation is*progress­ ive. The Bible is the greatest of all books because of the truth it reveals and. the person it represents. If we .all were Christians he said, there would be no more wars or rumors of wars. The Bible without Christ would be only spiritual literature but with God. it is a living book. For two thousand years the Bible has with­ stood all the criticism and is greater than ever and without the Bible hum­ anity would be like a lost child. Sci­ ence changes with the years but the Bible is always the same. The Bible has been supreme in the life of our greatest people. The ch oil’ sang this service "Praise Soul” and “Go Not At the evening service Mr. Cam­ eron read the Scripture lesson from the 10th chapter of Luke, commenc­ ing at the 25th verse. Rev. J. F. And­ erson of the United Church, lead in the prayer. "Back to God” was the title of the sermon and the text was the 27th verse of the 10th chapter of Luke, “And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with all thy heart, and will all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.” War is hovering over Europe because largely those' nations have forsaken God. Christ compressed four com­ mandments into text. The need of the world today is faith in the living God. The spirit controls the man. Every­ thing with which man deals is mys­ terious . We are surrounded with mystery. Wc have been away from God and must turn back to Bible chest is filled ‘with resist temptation to enable the possibilities in life, a with the love of God. Mrs. W. B. McCool was guest solo­ ist, and sang "I’ve Done My Work” by Carrie Jacobs Bond. The Choir rendered two anthems “Unto Thee, O Lord” and "I Will Feed My Flock.” two anthems at the Lord, O My Far From Me.” God.

Evangelist L. Sider, graduate of Lome Park College, is a young man who is a forceful preacher, and presents old truths in a new and strik­ ing manner. The campaign opened Monday ev­ ening, October 5th, with a searching sermon on the subject "If Jesus Were Here?” climaxing in the great truth that Jesus is here in the person of the Holy Spirit. Tuesday evening, "Achan, the man who had a secret sin and paid the penalty.” Wednes­ day, "The Suffering Christ," based upon Isaiah, the 53rd chapter. Every form of suffering was His, but the greatest was the suffering for sin. Thursday evening was the beginning of a series "The Cure for the Curse.” Man’s efforts to save himself are a failure. Friday evening “The New Birth" God’s way of breaking the curse was presented. Sunday after- nooh "The Cleansed Life" based on Romans 12: 1, was the subject of an address directed particularly to Chris­ tians. The Sunday evening subject, "The Curse .Lilted’ ’was one in. which the divine, method of lifting the curse was beautifully presented and cultim- inated in a description of heaven, where there shall be no more curses. There is a growing interest in these revival services, this being clearly evi­ denced in the tittttiber of people at­ tending the Sunday services, time gospel given forth in preaching and special songs, peals to the human heart.

Mr. Davidson had been confined to his home, Maple Street, for the past three months but prior to that was in poor health for about l¥s years. The deceased was a well know and highly respected citizen as for a great many years he carried on business in this town arid district. He was in his 77th year and was born in Goderich Township and when 3 years old moved with his parents, the late Robert and Annie Davidson ! to the 10th concession of Turnberry.

In spite of last year’s Canada Tem­ perance Act ruling by the Supreme Court of Canada, Premier Hepburn announced that his Government is go­ ing to administer the Liquor Control Act in the C.T.A. Counties of Peel, Perth and Huron. The decision is based on the Peel County Court judgment of last winter which said that the C.T.A. is ultra vires of the Dominion. “Since there has been no appeal from this decision,” said Mr. Hepburn “the judgment stands, and we will base our course of action on it. We are administering the L.C.A. in .those three counties and will continue to do so.” At a meeting of the Executive Com­ mittee of the Perth, Huron and Peel Temperance Federations at Stratford last week, the following resolution was unanimously adopted: "The Premier of Ontario’has intim­ ated in the press that the government is proposing to withdraw’ the appeal that the" government of Ontario has taken to the Privy Council from the decision 61 the Supreme Court of Canada in the matter of the Canada Temperance Act as touching the Counties of Huron, Perth and Peel. This gathering officially representing the temperance executives of the three counties would remind the Premier that the decision of the Supreme Court of Canada makes the Ontario Temperance Act law in the Counties of Huron, Perth and Peel, and that no Premier is competent under the constitution of Canada to ignore or violate any law of the land which, as we understand, he is bound by his oath of office to enforce. “We therefore respectfully request the Premier of Ontario to withdraw the existing authorities ■ (beverage room licenses) in Huron and Perth and to see that the Canada Temper­ ance Act and the Liquor Control Act are enforced in the said counties, as formerly.” The closing meeting of the conven­ tion of the Young People’s Union of the London Conference of the United: Church took the form of a rally of the Huron Presbytery Young People’s societies in Wesley Willis United Church, Clinton, on Sunday evening. The pastor had associated with him Miss Evelyn Dane, of Gorrie, past president, and Geo. Taylor, of East Wawanosh, President of the Presby­ tery Y.P.U., who conducted the ser­ vice. Miss Gladys Addison, Clinton, read the lesson and Miss Melva. Brown, of Brantford, gave an address on “Christian Youth in Action.” ' officers of the Presbytery Y.P.U. 1936-37 were installed by Rev.
