Behold,' I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white with harvest. And he that reapeth re- ceiveth wages, and gathereth fruit un­ to life eternal: that both he that sow- eth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.” The .Scripture reading was the 10th chapter of Luke. Mr. Oke divided his sermon into three parts, the Harvest, The Reapers­ and the Wages. We reap that which •we sow he said and he urged all to sow the right kind of seed in the home which is the unit of society. Our wages he said no matter what else we receive will be paid in the Life eternal.

The topic for the evening was tak­ en by Vivian MacLean and it dealt chiefly with the uses and the spread of the Bible in different lands, . The meeting closed with the singing of the hymn, "The Light of the World is Jesus'* and prayer by Marie Kelly, Lunch was served tfy the hostess and sortie of the members An enthusiastic gathering was held in the Town Hall on Friday evening to open the fall campaign in the in­ terests of the sale of War Savings Certificates, The meeting was spon­ sored by the local War Savings Committee of which Mr. Frank How- son is chairman. Mr. Gordon Buchan­ an, a member of the committee was chairman for the evening. Mayor J. Harley Crawford officially set the campaign in motion with the opening address. He informed the audience that Wingham was not the worst in comparison with the purchase of War Savings Certificates, but the sales here are not what had been hoped for according to Mr. Wilson the organizer for this district. In April he said, Wingham. purchased $4,000 of certificates so the objective of a $3,000 Naval gun per month is not too large. He gave three reasons for purchasing War Savings Certificates, to purchased the necessary war equip­ ment, to guard against inflation and they are a splendid investment. Rev. E, O. Gallagher said the Nazi monster- had been growing. If Russia falls then Britain will be attacked. In order that this must not happen to protect Britain and the Empire we must buy War Savings Certificates. We used to say tiirte was on our side but it is not today, he said- If vic­ tory is to be achieved it must be done at once before army conflict products and effort must be only man power but financial power as well. We must offer all we can that victory may be won that human­ ity may be saved. Mr. E. S. Copeland, another speaker told of the bubble that burst after the boom days before’1929 and how men had walked the roads looking for jobs. Our economic problem is very differ­ ent today, employment is at a new peak, there are many new war indust­ ries. This means that men will go from peace industries to war indus­ tries. This is no time to raise our standard of living while men are fighting for us. We will not have any­ thing if Hitler wins, so let us buy War Savings Certificates to help beat him. If we put our savings into War Savings Certificates now this acts as a bumper against depression later, it is the surest way to beat Hitler and the surest way to stop inflation. If all would put 5% of their income into War Savings .we would not have any trouble raising the $3,000 for a Naval gun each month. Send out your dol­ lars in War Savings Certificates and they will come marching back with tax free interest and the boys will come marching 'back with Victory. , Mr. Frank Howson'urged all to back up the committee and he explain­ ed the duties of the various members of the committee. During the past 8 months Wingham has averaged $2150 per month, A little extra effort will put us over out objective, a Naval Gun, valued at $3,000, every month. He made a special appeal for regular purchasing. A splendid porgram was presented, recitation, Mary Ross; solo, Rev. W. A. Beecroft; Reading, Mrs. Walter VanWyck; solo, Mrs. W. B.
