The Wingham Advance-Times, 1965-02-11, Page 2Page 2. - Wingham Advance -Times. Thursday, February 11. 1965 DAVIS CLEARING IN THE EASTERN TOWNSHIPS, drawn by W. H. Bartlett, was published in "Canadian Scenery Illustrated" in 1841. The author of the book observed that there was a lot of valuable land in the townships, sometimes rising into mountains with fine timber, and well watered but without the swamps found in other areas. The south-eastern part of Sherbrooke County was occupied by squatters before being purchased by the British American Land Company. The richly wooded land was well suited to a mixed system of corn and pasture farming, The Salmon River and streams flow- ing into it, was rapid and the broken falls, while unfit for navigation, were convenient for mills.

SOUTH - KITCHENER BRITISH ISRAEL -- The Bible's National Message -- Have you ever considered the evidence on which we base our belief that the Celto-Saxon peoples are the continuation of God's servant race and nation Israel, and that our ancient Throne is the one called in the Bible the Throne of David? If not, we would like to point out that present world conditions are a most emphatic warning that this question can no longer be safely ignored. Today we are living in the very shadow of "Armageddon" — that great and final conflict through which Israel can come safely only by a genera! recognition of her identity and a complete surrender, both individually and nationally, to God's Will and Purpose for her. Thus the question of whether or not we are Israel is both vital and urgent.
