Two occurrences of signifi- cance have happened in Wing - ham recently. One was the de- struction of Burke's Electrical store by fire; the other the collapse of the wall of the Pres- byterian Church. This is an opportunity to express sympathy for all involved in the losses. In each of these two losses something existed of which no one knew, but which was the underlying cause.

DON'T MISS THIS OUTSTANDING SALE (Toques Accepted 3% Sales Tux in ofteet This sermonette will deal chiefly with the Parable of the Presbyterian Church and it is hoped that our Presbyterian friends will pardon the use of their loss for this purpose, for it may be that out of their loss will come gain for many. Itis not meant to cast any reflec- tion on these good people. The cause of the collapse of the wall was something of which none was aware, but the weakness was there, and the wall fell. The remainder of the building is to be takers down and a new edifice erected on the same site. For the time being their customary worship and activities are upset but eventually a new building, worthy of the purpose for which it is to be used, will stand in the place of the older one. Architects, contractors, drafts- men and labourers will all do their part, until the work stands complete; "a building of God for which none need to be ashamed". Here then is the parable. All of us have secret sins. It could be that not even we our- selves are aware of thein. But they are there, and must even- tually cause life to collapse or at Least be marred. They need to he rooted out. We can cov- er them up and thus be, as Je- sus said of the Pharisees, "out- wardly appearing beautiful, but are full of dead men's bones, and all uncleanness" . It is not enough to cover up, to look good; it is necessary that we be good. This may mean a complete rebuilding. The old life must be torn down. The divine Architect must be called in to plan. He will be the Contractor, and we must be the labourers working with Him, following His plans and instructions, and thus rebuild our lives so that we may be worthy of the task to which we are called, the worship of, and service for a wonderful God. This of course will cause an upsetting of our usual way of life. But the end result will be worth it, for, "if this earthly house we live in be destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made by hands, eternal in the heavens," (II Corinthians 5: 1 R. S. V.). Fortune Reunion Held at Waterloo The 13th annual Fortune re- union was held in Waterloo Park on Saturday. June wea- ther favored the event. Members of the Fortune fa- milies were present from Wing - ham, Chesley, Elmwood, Ay- ton, Elmira, Mitchell, Water- loo, Weston and Toronto. The president, Mrs, Ida Harvey, Chesley, conducted the business, assisted by the secretary -treasurer, Mrs. Lor- raine Fortune, Elmira, A program of sports was convened by Fred Cook, Ches- Iley and the lunch committee was Mrs. Cora Kaufman of Elmwood and Mrs. Myrtle Schenk of Ayton. A period of silence was ob- served in mernory of Mrs, Elizabeth Fortune McMillan of Weston, who passed away people of the Sunday school Albert Heibein had given her a lot of pleasure. Mrs. Andrew Rodgers sang, "Surely Goodness and Mercy Buried Monday Shall Follow Me". Sgt. Ma or Joe Clark read the announce- ments. The speaker was Rev. Robert Watt, D. D. , of Peoples' Church in Toronto. Ile spoke on sal- vation through faith and said that anyone who will place his hand into the scarred hand of the Saviour can be saved. He said that he firmly believes in a place of torment and spoke of Lazarus and the rich man. La- zarus was received to the bosom of Abraham and the rich Chan went to hell. Dr, Watt said, if anyone had asked the rich man how he got there, he would have said that he had never in - i tended to go. Ile would no doubt have admitted that he had intended to change his ways but had neglected to do so. Those who make their de- cision and carry through faith- fully to the end, as Lazarus did, will be granted the haven of rest because of the marvel of the grave. Capt. Newman invited those in the citadel and in the radio audience who had come to the place of decision to join in the closing hymn, "Take My Life and Let It Be", Three new soldiers, Mr. and Mrs„ William Rawn and Mrs. Arthur Stokes were sworn in at the close of the service. GORRIE---Albert Lour flei- bein passed away in St. lo. seph's Ilospital, London, un Saturday. Ile had been in failing health for some time.

Funeral service was held at the Moir funeral home, Gorrie, on Monday at 2 p.m., con- ducted by Rev. F. W. Taylor of Gorrie United Church. Pallbearers were Harold King, Harry Templenian, Earl Underwood, Richard Carson, Wesley Gallaway, Norman Cars on Burial was in Gorrie ceme- tery, Excitement was so high that one could almost smell it in the air. The trumpet players stepped onto the balcony, and the fanfares announced the opening of the twelfth season at the Shakespearean Festival in Stratford, Ontario. This is a special year for lovers of Shakespeare, for this is the 400th anniversary of the fa- mous playwright's and poet's birth. In gala opening -night festivities, one of this year's Shakespearean plays, "Richard II", made its debut on Monday of last week. William Hutt, one of Canada's finest actors, if not the finest, plays the ti- tle role and is supported by Jackie Burroughs as the Queen, Leo Ciceri as his cousin, Amel- ia Hall, Bruno Gerussi, and Eric House. Tuesday evening saw the Canadian debut of "Le Bour- geois Gentilhotnme", (The Would-be Gentleman) by Mo- liere. This was one of the plays seen at Chichester earlier this year. Douglas Rain plays during the year, Prizes were awarded in the various events to Larry Fortune, Carol Fortune and ValerieFor- tune, Mrs. Claude Borne of Mitchell, Mrs. Don Fortune of Elmira, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Rowntree of Weston, Miss Isa- bel Fortune, Wingham and I. V. Schenk, Ayton. A lovely corsage was given to the eldest person present, Mrs. Mary Norkus of Weston, 'Tis Show Biz By Vonni Lee r) the lead in this comedy about a man named Jourdailn who makes himself look ridiculous by imitating others. His sup- porting players are William Hutt, Eric House, Martha Hen- ry, Bruno Gerussi, and Eric Christmas. This play is di- rected by Jean Gascon. On Wednesday evening at 7:30 the curtain rose on one of Shakespeare's finest and most popular works, the tragedy of "King Lear" which has never before been done at Stratford. John Colicos, last year's 'Cyrano de Bergerac', plays the title role in 'Lear', with Frances Ryland, Diana Maddox and Martha Henry as his three daughters, Goneril, Regan, and Cordelia, and Douglas Rain, William Needles, Tony Van Bridge, and Mervyn Blake in supporting roles. "Richard" and "Lear" are the only Shakespearean pro- ductions to be staged this year at Stratford. They arethebegirr- ning of a five-year cycle which will present "Henry IV", "Hen- ry V", and "Henry VI", and close with "Richard III." four years from now. Later this sea- son, another Langham produc- tion, William Wycherley's "The Country Wife" will join the group of opening plays. Mr. Langham's wife, Helen Burns will have the title role ofMar- gety Pinchwife, with Douglas Rain as Mr. Pinchwife, Eric House as Sir Jasper Fidget, Frances Hyland as Mrs. Fidget, and Martha Henry as Mrs. Squearnish. Its opening night is Wingham Advance-Titn(:s, Thursda ,June 25, 1'904 -Pe 7 slated for July 27th, and tickets are still available. For those with a musical ear, two operas will he presented in the Avpn Theatre throughout this year's season. "The Yeo- men of the Guard" will open on July 3rd, to be tullowed �.n Au- gust 4th by "The Marriage of Figaro". Leading singers are Howell Glynne, Ma urice Brown, Kathryn Newman, Jan Rubes, and Ilona Koinhrink. In addi- tion to the operas, there will be week -end euncerts of classical music, beginning on July 5th in the Festival Theatre. These will feature soprano Lois Mar- shall, cellist Leonard Rose, violinist Oscar Shurnsky, pian- ist Leon Fleisher, and the Fes- tival Orchestra and chorus. I believe this will be the best year yet, at Stratford, end urge you to attend some of the events, Yours truly will try co bring a report of some of the dramatic offerings later in the season. Don't forget to order yourtick- ets early; more than one-third are already suld. If you were not in Stratford on Monday evening, the next best place to he was by your pitcher toob, for an evening of fine television viewing. Marg Osborne made the Don Messer half-hour worth all the time spent, when she sang a fantastic arrankement of " A Heart in San FranciscoiLeft . This is the only western show that can delve into atmos! any realm of the music world, and Marg is the only 'western' singer who can sing any type of song and make it sound gorgeous. Garry Moore bid rhe world adieu in his final show, which was a reunion with all the guests who have been his 'fa- mily' throughout the past six years at CBS. (We will see a few repeats before the end al the season.) Carol Burnett was hack, and her same funny self. So were Alan King, Mariuri Lorne, Alan Funt, Roy Castle, and of course, Durward Kirby. Garry's rood -bye was indeed touching, and :flan Kingsum- reed it up nicely in his act when he said, "Tuesday night is going to be very lonely now." (The show is seen on Tuesdays in the U.S..) Garry was more than peeved when CBS cancel- led his show, and immediately he also bowed out of his radio show and the other '1'V show he hosts, "I've Got a secret", and said he would go on a cruise in his boat next year, and 'do some thinking'. however, he has now buried the hatchet, and he will be back with CBS next year, though in a much different show. He will get his cruise; it will be a world cruise and CBS will make it into a travelogue series. Tele- vision crews will be waiting at certain locations and film the show when Garry arrives, the: move on to the next place. It should be a tremendous series, and I'm glad Garry hasn't been put away to mold. I hope the others who made his variety show• so successful, aren't Left out in the cold, Coming Events CLOSING NOTICE Dr. W.
