regular supplies for the service Sab-

excellent satisfaction during the passing
years, The Sabbath School in the
afternoon will be continued as usual.

Police Magistrate Andrews, of Clinton,
and Crown Attorney Seager were in the
village last week in connection with
three liquor chases laid by Inspector
Mitchell, of Wingham, on evidence
supplied by officers of the County
Temperance Alliance. Gordon Mae -
Donald, of Brussels, for violation of
the Canada Temperance Act, paid the
e alt
p n y for a first offense. The case
against Robert Thompson, of Brussels,
who runs' a cold storage plant, created
considerable interest, and several wit-
nesses swore that Thompson had at
different times treated them to
liquor and the question arose as .to
whether a person can bring liquor
into a C. T. A. county, presumably for
personal use, and afterwards change
his mind, and give it away. The magis'
withheld his i ecision in the Thompson
case, and also in the case against
McQuarrie of Brussels.

Let us Give Moderately ach Other
and Generously to
the Idiers' Families
Nineteen hundred and sixteen years o came the very first Christmas, and for
all these centuries there has recurred the Great Anniversary with its message of good
will to men.
And so we give gifts.
Men and women of Ontario ! We who stand for good will among men and nations:
we whose men fight that there may at last be real peace on earth—let us majce this a
Cl'n istmas worthy of the day it commemorates—let us lay aside a generous proportion
of our Christmas money for the families of those who are fighting the good fight,
Give to the Canadian Patriotic Fund
the fund that guards the soldiers' families from want.
Great as the result will be among the families of our soldiers, greater yet may the
blessing be among us, the givers. Christmas will have a more vital meaning for us
than perhaps ever before, and as for the children, who can measure the impression they
will receive and keep of that Christmas Day when they shared their Christmas with
the loved ones of the men who saved their country!
Let each Canadian boy and girl get a lesson from this historic Christmas which
will go with them all through life.
Good mien and women of Ontario! Can the need of our soldiers' families cry in
vain for the relief which this Fund alone makes possible? Can we—can we, in the face
of it all, again give lavishly among ourselves? Shall we not this year. with hearts full
of the spirit of Christmas, lay aside a generous proportion of our Christmas money
for the cause which so urgently -Ms it?
"Somewhere in Prance" he is fighting the good fight.
Somewhere in Ontario all that he holds dear is depending upon our decision.
Truly "It is more blessed to give than to receive."
Ontario will he ask.'
