HARVEST FESTIVAL
SERVICES HELD
Rev. H, W. Sriell Preached nt These
Special Services in St, Paul’s Church
The Festival o? the Harvest was
appropriately observed in St. Paul’s
■Church on Sunday last. Beginning
with a celebration of the Holy Com
munion at 8.30 a.m. the festival serv
ices were continued throughout the
day, The Church had been most
beautifully decorated for the happy
■occasion with the flowers and fruits
of the field and the whole setting
was in harmony with the theme of
the day,
The Choir, directed by Mr. Roy
Mundy, rendered, the anthems “O
Lord, How Manifold Are Thy
Works” by Gounod, “The Lord Is
Loving Unto Every Man” by Trun-
er, and "Thou Visited the Earth and
Blssed it”, with Mr. C. Templeman
carrying the tenor solos both morn
ing . and evening, and Mr. J. R. M.
Spittai the bass solo. • The great
Christian hymn of praise the "Te
Deum” was sung by the whole con
gregation, together with the "Ca'n-
tate Domino” in the setting by Rob
inson, at the evening service.
The worship services of the day
were conducted by the rector, Rev.
E. O. Gallagher, who expressed his
appreciation to those who had assist
ed in preparing the church for the
services, and to the choir for their
most helpful services. It, was a day
of deepest gratitude, of heartiest
warship and of congregations prais
ing God for all His goodness.
The rector was very happy to wel
come to St. Paul’s Church, Rev. H.
W. Snell, who had been rector of the
parish from 1917 _ 1926, and is now
principal of the Mohawk Institute in
Brantford, as the special preacher of
■the day. Mr. Snell was most happy
to meet the people of St. Paul’s again
and renewed many of his old friend
ships and acquaintances. He gave
two very thoughtful and encouraging
addresses to attentive congregations.
In the morning he directed his
thoughts to the Love of God—the
Presence of the Divine Spirit brood
ing with its‘Creative power over land
and sea and forest. He spoke of a
God who promised to'give and did
give—-it was man who was not ready
to receive. Man with his'heart set
on self had hidden from himself the
finer things of life. Turning to the
problems of a disturbed world he
■spoke of the Love of our Neighbor
—that only Love could destroy war.
Selfishness, hatred, caused nations to
rise against nations. He appealed for
a world which would hear and re
ceive the Love of God for itself,
which "would bring forth a Harvest
■of Christlike things and a civilization
based on the words “Thy Kingdom
•Come.”
In the evening Mr. Snell’s appeal
was to seek first the Kingdom of
God. He stressed, the fact that God
meant it, when.He said that if we
did, then other things would be add
ed. He illustrated the fact of this
promise. Our age wants to be relig
ious, but on its own terms. We don’t
want religion in the quiet paths of
service and surrender. Every ap
proach to the city of the redeemed
.is the result of a surrendered will, an
acce'pted Cross, a life somehow laid
down. . /

byterian Church in Ontario. He gave
a very fine address taking as his sub
ject “The Parable of the Talents.”
He stressed the fact that many of us
are like the1 man with one talent, with
a tendency to bury this talent. This
is wrong as God expects us to de
velop this talent. Once developed the
talent will multiply.

CHURCH CELEBRATED
75th ANNIVERSARY
Miss Lydia Gruchy Was The Special
Speaker
The Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of
Wingham United Church was cele
brated on Sunday with large congre
gations, The church was beautifully
decorated with large baskets of fall
flowers, The speaker for the day was
Miss Lydia Gruchy," first woman to
be ordained into the ministry of the
United Church. She based her talk
upon Hebrews 13; 5 "I will never
leave thee nor forsake thee”jand said
that ourforefathers believed in a
speaking God. What we need to-day
in these troublesome times, is the
faith of our fathers. God spoke in
many ways to the men of old and he
still speaks if we put aside our pre
judice and ignorance to listen. Miss
Gruchy gave a very interesting mes
sage to the members of the junior
congregation, telling the story of an
old church in the island of Jersey
which had been built from stones
brought by the people, large stones
by the grown people down to tiny
pebbles carried by the babies, all be
ing necessary to the completed build
ing. Thus, every effort of old and
young today is needed to bring the
kingdom of God in our midst today.
The choir was assisted by Miss
Helen Cole, of London, whose two
solos, “The Green Cathedral” and
“Hear My Prayer,” were sung with
glorious expression. The choir, in
splendid harmony, sang as the offer
tory anthem “The Te Deum.”
In the afternoon, Miss Gruchy,
who is Executive Secretary for the
Woman Workers of the United
Church, addressed a mass meeting of
young women on "The Challenge of
the Church to Womanhood.” Miss
Cole at the eager request of the Sun
day School, sang several of the old
hymns with beautiful expressions.
Another large congregation greet
ed Miss Gruchy Sunday evening,
many having come from outside
points to hear her. She took as her
theme “The Grace of God, our
Schbolmaster,” pointing out that
while the upsurge of a new spiritual
experience will send one gladly for
ward on the Christian way, it is only
the constant prompting and guiding
of the grace of God, that gives pat
ience and endurance for the long, un
ending struggle against difficulty and
temptation that always characterizes
the Christian life. Miss Helen Cole
entranced the congregation again
with here xpressive rendering of
"Come Unto Me” and “The Holy
City.” The Choir, in fine voice, sang
as the Offertory Anthem "Holy Fa
ther, Cheer our Way.”

SOME BRIEF NOTES
ON THE CANADA
TEMPERANCE ACT
No. 2 — The Reason For Its Revival
Provisions for municipal local op
tion, which had become a part of the
Municipal Act but had somehow been
dropped, were in the early nineties
revived and incorporated into the
Liquor License Act of Ontario. They
provided for prohibition of retail sale
in taverns and shops in villages,
towns, cities and townships. Being
part of t1i£ License Act, there was no
question as to responsibility for en
forcement. The law which became
operative on a simple majority was
popular and was widely utilized In
Ontario.
Sir James Whitney, whose enforce
ment of the law was particularly vig
orous, early in his regime introduced
the requirement of a sixty per cent,
majority vote which greatly retarded
the progress of the local option
movement,
In the years 1914 and 1915, several
counties in Ontario, having carried
restriction of sale by municipal local
option as far as seemed possible with,
the sixty per cent, handicap, found •'
the persistent sale in. municipalities
remaining under license a nuisance
and such a menace to the success of
the local option law that to clean up
so far as possible a wider area and
protect their own people they revert
ed to the county measure, the Can
ada Temperance Act. This did not
destroy the existence of local option,
or the various provisions of the Li
cense law. Its only effect was in re
gard to prosecution for sale. It pat*
alleled these provisions in the pro
vincial Act and in so far as it did so,
took precedence over them. The two
laws operated concurrently, charges
for sale being laid under the Canada
Temperance Act and other charges
under the Liquor License Law. The
dual operation of the provincial and.
Dominion law was continued tinder*1
the Ontario Teniporance Act1 up till
the time of the suspension which
curred about 1920.-—-Advt. •
