Loney, Minister of John St. Baptist Church, attended the' in­ duction service of the Rev. Donald' Cameron at Egerton Street Baptist Church at London last week. Rev, Alexander Torrie, B.A., com­ menced his evangelistic campaign in the Wnigham Baptist Church last Sunday and will continue every night until Sunday, September 26th. Evan­ gelist Torrie has been Canada’s pre­ mier evangelist for more than twen­ ty-five years and' at the present time he occupies the unique position of be­ ing Canada’s only evangelist. There is a dearth of evangelists in these days and with 'this dearth of evang­ elists there is an increasing lack of interest in the work and worship of our Churches. The need of revival has never been greater than it is to­ day. The theme of Evangelist Torrie’s. sermon on Sunday morning was “The Need of Revival and the Revival We Need.” On Sunday night he chose as his subject, “A Thrilling Story of What One Woman Did.” These mes­ sages-, carried an unusual spiritual glow and were delivered with proph­ etic courage and with a burning heart. Three daily pray-meetings are be­ ing conducted in different parts of the town. The interest is increasing in the campaign and is showing itself in the large congregations attending the services. political situation in Huron- is taking on a different aspect election of October 6th draws Last week Councillor Henry Home From Hospital ' We arc pleased to'report that Mr. Hector MacKay has sufficiently re­ covered to be able to return on Sat­ urday to his home at Whitechu'rch, after being very ill in Wingham Gen­ eral Hospital.

Lions’ » Club Annual Clinic To Be Held at Seaforth A report was circulated on Monday that'there was a case of infantile par­ alysis in town. We are greatly pleas­ ed’ to report that such is not the case. Cecil Yoe was ill and this started the rumor* but Dr, Stewart, Medical Of­ ficer of Health, has reported no case of infantile paralysis in town. There are three cases of paralysis in East Wawanosh. The latest case to develop was reported on Monday when Margaret Nesbitt of Auburn, who was visiting at the home of John W. Mason, on the 6th, was taken ill. Harold Kellough, 8 years old, about 1% miles north of Auburn, and Ed­ ward McGill, are the other two cases. They are both making a splendid re­ covery. Schools No. 16, 3 and Scott’s school on the 6th in East Wawanosh are closed by order of Dr. R. C. Red- mand, M.O.H., and will remain clos­ ed until danger or other causes in these districts is past.

The clinic who have a are asked to H. T. Edwards, Goderich; Lion H. M. Monteith, Clinton; Lion Dr. F. J. Bechley, Seaforth, or your own fam­ ily physician. No mental cases will be received. The Bruce as the near. T. Thomson, of town, was mentioned as candidate and on Monday iMr. Thomson told the Advance-Times he was definitely in the field as an In­ dependent Liberal. Monday Mr. T. J. McLean, of town, said he would be an Independent candidate but qualified this statement by saying he would on Wednesday know for sure. It now looks as if there will be four .names on the ballot in Huron- Bruce. Charles A. Robertson, Liber­ al, who was member for Huron-Bruce in the last Legislature, and who for eleven years has been our represent­ ative in the Ontario House, was the choice of the Liberal Convention here recently by'a very large major­ ity. In his last election Mr. Robert­ son had a majority of 4,602. The Conservatives have as their standard- bearer W. H. Logan, of Teeswater. He was chosen at the Conservative convention here by a large majority. Mr. Logan is running on a dry ticket, ‘he stated at the convention that this would be one of th& main planks in his platform. Mr. Robertson has al­ ways been known as a temperance man and lie said at the convention he was heartily in accord with Hepburn and that Mr. Hepburn should be re­ turned to power as he had more than kept his promises and his financial l record is the best Ontario Jias in many years. Mr. Thomson in speaking to Advance-Times, said he was in field as aii Independent Liberal that he felt that the Hepburn Gov­ ernment had given good administra­ tion. I have been a life-long Liberal, he said, but I feel that this riding would not be properly represented by either of the other candidates. Mr. Thomson has been a life-long resi­ dent of Huron. He first saw the light of d'ay in McKillop but for 55 years has been a resident of this district. He has farmed in Turnberry and Wawanosh and for five yiprs oper­ ated a store at Belmore. For 15 years he was a salesman for Gunns Ltd., and since 1930 has conducted the Bluevale and Wingham Creameries. T. J.# McLean is also a Huron pro­ duct. He was born near Auburn and was raised in Lower Wingham. Fie has been a resident of Wingham since his early childhood and his hobby has been keeping track of the histor­ ical events of the town and district. For many years he has meen in the contracting business, his most recent operations being the grading work on Highway No. 4, north and south of Wingham. “Tom,” as he is known to all, says that both parties in Huron-Bruce are fighting the election on petty issues. He has been a strong Conservative all his life but says he will be an In­ dependent candidate. Mr. McLean says the licensed bar rooms were bet­ ter than the system of beverage rooms where people have to sit down to drink. The present system, he said, was a farce. had the the and “The Heidi Bridge and Dance The members of the Alps Club held a very successful bridge and dance at the club house Thurs­ day evening last.

Searching for Damaged Submarine A damaged “pirate” submarine with its crew alive but unable to bring the craft to the surfage, was reported to have been found by Spanish loyalists divers off the Cartagena naval base on the Southern Mediterranean coast of Spain. The warships dropped sev­ eral depth bombs around the spot where the submarine’s periscope dis­ appeared, and reported that pools of oil rose to the surface. Cartagena naval authorities who investigated said they believed the submarine had been' destroyed or incapacitated.

Schools if it had' not been for the infantile paralysis epidemic in Ontario, would have commenced on Sept. 1st. The High School has 166 students, 54 beginners, while last year there were 158'pupils and 40 who were be­ ginners. The first form this year will have 63 pupils, the largest class in some time. There is only one change on the High School Staff, Miss Doris G. Traill, of Toronto, she taught at Cfeemore last year, having been en­ gaged when Miss McDonald resigned, The Public School has ten less pup­ ils than last year. The enrollment on Monday was 234, last year it was 244, Twenty-eight kiddies started to school Monday, last year there were twenty-nine beginners. South Huron May Change (Goderich Signal) The temperance organization of the riding has endorsed the position of Dr. R. H. Taylor, the Conservative candidate in South Huron, on the li­ quor issue. Mr.- Baliantyne, although invited to state his position, did not do so. The result may be, if tem­ perance voters are satisfied with Dr, Taylor’s record and convinced of his sincerity, the transference of a con­ siderable number of votes from the Liberal to . the Conservative candi­ date. What effect this will have Oh election day remains to be seen, but at any rate it renders the return of Mr. BaHahtyne uncertain, in spite of his majority of over 2,000 in 1934. On Wednesday afternoon, sixteen members of the Wingham Institute attended the Belmore Institute meet­ ing held at the home of their Pres­ ident, Mrs. Wm. Elliott. The meet­ ing was opened with singing The In­ stitute Ode and repeating the Lord’s Prayer in unison.
