HEAR FINE ADDRESS
Miss Reith, of Toronto, Gave Slendid
Lecture at Annual Thank-Offering
Meeting.
The annual Thank-Offering meeting
of the Goforth Auxiliary of St. And
rew’s Presbyterian Church was held
in the school room of the church on
Wednesday evening last, with the
President, Mrs, T .A. C-urrie, in the
chair.
After the opening exercises and
business, Miss Sara MacLean, accom
panied at the piano by Miss Ella Rae,
sang a delightful solo “My Task/’ '
The Scripture lesson was taken by
Mrs. TJervit and the President led in
prayer following which Miss Ella Rae
played an instrumental solo.
The special speaker for the service
was Miss Reith of the University of
’Toronto, who chose as the topic of
her address “The Joy of Service.”
“When we find joy we find it in
■those who are serving others, putting
self last always.
This.is exemplified in the service
of the deaconesses of our church. In
the early records of'the Christian
ehurCh women were ordained for this
special work and down through the
ages we find many instances of their
devotion and sacrifice.
“In ’the Presbyterian Deaconess
’Training Home on St. George Street,
in Toronto,” said Miss Reith, “we find
a very high type of young woman
training to go forth, into this great
work which is divided into three
classes, Congregational deaconesses,
usually found in large churches; Mis
sionaries working chiefly in the North
West; and those who live in the train
ing home and are training for some
branch of the work in the foreign
field.
“We -know we are not all endowed
with the same talents but God ex
pects us to use the talent we have
in the advancement of His kingdom.
It is for us to find the special work
■God has intended for us and .then we
shall know what is meant by joy in
-service.”

The present Council of Reeve Peter
W. Scott, Councillors J. D. Beecroft,
R. R. Redmond, Harvey Black, Lewis
Ruddy, will seek re-electioi^, we are
informed, and it is thought by many
in the township that the present Coun
cil will not be opposed.
The papers of lajc have named sev
eral townships that feel they are in
an enviable position but Reeve Peter
W. Scott is of the opinion that the
Township of East Wawanosh has rea
son to be proud of its position.
In conversation with the Reeve, he
informed us that East Wawanosh has
had no township debenture debt since
1933. The only township debt is a few
drain debentures and those, on Currie’s
school which was burned a few years
past, The township holds a record in
regard to relief and sale of land for
taxes. No relief has been given and
no property lias been sold for taxes.
The township rate is 2% mills and
the Reeve states that the roads are
equal or better than most neighboring
townships, Ah interesting item that
the Reeve brought to our attention is
that for the past three years no in
terest has been paid on loans which
saves the taxpayers considerable mon
ey.
hard work and perseverance they
hewed for themselves a home out of
the primeval forest. Thirty years ago
he moved to Morris Township where
he resided until retiring to Wingham
fifteen years ago. In 1879 he was
married to Frances McMichael, who
predeceased him four years ago. Sin
ce that time he has made his home
amongst his family.
There is left to; mourn the loss of
a kind and loving father, Mrs. Geo.
Warwick, of Grey, Mrs. Arthur Fitch,
of Howiclc, Mrs. Gordon Walker, Rob
ert, Nelson and Gordon, of Morris.
The funeral service was held from
the home of Mr. Fitch on Friday,
Nov. 13th. The service was conduct
ed by the Rev. Mr. Raynor, of Bel
more, and Rev. Mr. Grant, of Wrox-
eter. Mr. Higginsl was a member of
Wingham UnitedJChurch and also a
member of'the Courf Maitland C.O.F.,
Wingham. In the passing of Mr.
Higgins, Huron has lost one of its
earliest pioneers.
Weep not for a father deceased,
Our loss is his infinite gain;
A soul out of prison released,
And free from its bodily chain;
With songs let us follow his flight,
And mount with his spirit above,
Escaped to the mansion of light,
And lodged in the Eden of love.
