Monday afternoon's activities. Music for the occasion was
provided by Marie Flynn, Clinton, Mary Taylor, Norman

Nichol play the violin and banjo, and are soloists for the

Addresses Brussels councillors
Rev. C. A. McCarroll of Mel-
ville Presbyterian Church
addressed the inaugural meeting
of Brussels Council on Monday of
last week.
Mr. McCarroll in his remarks
said;
A good name is rather to
be chosen than great riches and
loving favour rather than silver
or gold.
We live in a wonderful period
of history, a period of scientific
advancement of radio, television,
a world telephone system fast
travelling airplanes. When I
was travelling across the ocean
to London, England there were
178 passengers on the plane. We
travelled, about 650 miles per
hour. Now we have planes carry-
ing 500 passengerS travelling
550 miles an hour. Man has
made a number of journeys to
the Moon, so that now much of
the novelty has worn off.
Because of these discoveries
and scientific advancements in
science and invention, there is
a tendency in some to imagine
that we can get along very well
without the great moral values.
Some are even slipping into the
attitude of regarding these things
as supreme. Let none of us
become unbalanced in this
matter. •
-The greatest need is for in-
tegrity and uprightness among
men. Man's accomplishments,
however beneficial and wonder-
ful can never take the place of
the great essentials of integrity,
honesty, trustworthiness and
honour.
Many of our fathers and
grandfathers did not have the
great advantages that we have
today; yet they made a contri-
bution that was very great.
At a Presbytery meeting in
Melville Church we had a
coloured Minister from Africa
speak to us. Afterwards several
of us in conversation heard him
say, "What wonderful farms and
splendid roads you have, if we
had them in Africa we would
consider ourselves fortunate in-
deed. I pointed out that it
was by patient toil and continuous
effort that these things were
accomplished.

REV. C.A. MCCARROLL
There is another side to be
considered. The newspapers tell
us stories of crime, murder
and disorder that 'makes sad
reading. But it calls attention
to the moral issues of life that
are far more important than any,
or all of our scientific advances.
For ,all that these things do is
to put more,power in our hands.
• But the big question is, How are
we going to use that power.
Like the people of Nigeria a
short time ago to fight and murder
one another. It is right here, that
we begin to realize how un-
balanced we can become. Man's
accomplishments in knowledge
and science and 'Invention,
however useful, convenient and
wonderful can never replace the
great essentials of honesty, in-
tegrity, trustworthiness and
honor. Some people think that
we can get along without these
eternal moral values, but they are
mistakened, greatly mista.kened.
Our fathers lived without
many of our modern advantages
in years gone by, but they had
certain basics, that were abso-

lutely essential. These basics
gave them a standard of values,
a certain sure foundation for liv
ing. We must have these basics
today to gov tti our lives; our
institutions, our country and our
world. Our need for them to-
day is greater because we live
in a class oriented moral envir-
onment.
It is imperative that we all
have that basic integrity and our
leaders particularly.
What determines a right sense
of values. It is a keen sense of
right and wrong., This is some-
thing, if we would be more than
animals that we must have. We
live in an age in spite of all the
protests, marches and clamours
that when it suits us, the clear
mark of right and wrong is dim-
med into a dirty grey. What
determines a right sense of
values. A keen sense of right
and wrong is derived from the
Word of God. The Bible. A
good name is rather to be chosen
than great riches. Be just, allow
nothing to taint the integrity of
your life. A good name must
be earned. A good name should
be acquired and maintained, in
the exercise of a good conscience.
With all the advances in
science, in knowledge, there is
still the greatest need for ex-
ample and integrity.
Henry Clay , the great Am-
erican Statesman, declared in
Congress during a debate.
I would rather be right than be
the President of •the United States.
Yet he had been the candidate
for the' Presidency three times
(1824, 1832, 1844). .There are
few satisfactions greater than
doing what is right and facing
the world unashamed.
A certain famous general was
offered the presidency of an in-
surance company at a salary of
$50,000 a year. He declined it
saying that it was a work with
which he was not familiar. When
he was assured, that he was not
expected to do any work, that it
was simply for the use of his
name'. He said, "If my name
is worth $50,000 a year, I ought
to be very careful about taking
care of it."
When I was attending Harbord
Collegiate we had a ,very good
history teacher and at the grade
'13 class he did a very excellent '
job in teaching History. He
was promoted to principal of
Oakwood Collegiate. The class
wanted to make a presentation
and I was asked to make it.
I made a' little speech appro-
priate to the occasion but what
seemed to move him most was
the inscription on the volumes
presented. "A good name is
rather to be chosen than great
riches and loving favour rather
than silver and gold." It was
splendid to be promoted to prin-
cipal of such a fine school. But
to have the respect of the stu-
dents, in earning a genuinely
good name in their midst, was
something even 'greater than all
other honors.
