presentation
On Monday evening a number
people from the Wingham Baptist
Church gathered at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Falconer in honour of Mr.
Reggie Collar who was home on leave
from Petawawa.
A very pleasant evening was spent
in playing games. During the evening
Reggie was presented with a beautiful
Elco wrist watch. The presentation
was made by Mr, Falconer, who was
Reggie's Sunday School teahcer and
Mr. Loney read the following address:
Dear Reggie:
We, the members and adherents of
foe Wingham Baptist Church, desire
lib express to you the high esteem in
which you* are held by us all as a
friend, as a brother ift Christ Jfesus
and as a fellow-member of our church.
We foci highly honoured by your;
courage in enlisting hi the forces of
His Majesty, King George VI to fight!
agaiftSt the ferrorisfti of Nazism and
of
we as British people enjoy.
We wish to pledge you .that we will
be faithful in remembering you at the
Throne of Grace, that God may shel
ter you beneath His protecting wings
and that you may realize that under
neath you' at all times are the ever
lasting arms of ah Amnipotent God.
As a token of our love and esteem,

The fail opening meeting of the W*

hall with the president, Miss W. Bar
foot in the chair. Two hymns, "Let
the lower lights be‘burning;”?and "My
faith looks Alp to Thee*” were suing,
_o___ _________ fololwed with a prayer by Mrs. J,
Fascism, and lot the liberties whichr Anderson. She prayed that the curse• f
of liquor would-be-overcome by God
and that people would turn .to Him for
their satisfaction-instead of to intox
icants, That peace might come not
only in the wojrjd,/but hearts
of men. Wood sang
beautifully fee song "The Christ of
the HuriiXff’Road.” * -
Rev. G;zd0terry5Tead?.‘±hei scripture
and gave the message, In his remarks
he ^jrid, that many/today are dis
couraged t;iti -Christian work. They
come back’With ...pets empty as the
fishermen^did, that,, day., on the Sea
of Galilee. Christ brings words of en
couragement to us at these times. Yet
so many,are so long in learning the
lesson of waiting on God. Many are
so discouraged they are ’'washing their
nets or in other words, giving up.”
This seems to be true in Temperance
work. It seems so little is being,ac-:
complished and their wdrkers./get
discouraged. Jesus said to the fisher
man" Go out and fish again.” It seem
edfoolish to them being daytime and
they fished at night, But they went.
The results Were wonderful, great
draughts of fishes*
Christ tells us to fish again ahd if
we do so, in His way instead of our
own, things will be different and He
wgl bless, be discouraged, He
us,, and when
Wbrk all; will
selves to our work, take courage, have
faith in God *nd we will be surprised
at. what can be accomplished in God’s
Hands.

The minutes of the last meeting^
were read and business discussed. Miss

Convention held at Goderich in the
