HURON -BRUCE
Now that the provincial by-election in
Hurc!n-Bruce -is over, we are more or less
surprised ,to learn the great number of
people who '` l:ilew all along" which can-
didat,, would be elected. Their number did
not seen; nearly as large the day ;before the
election.
Credit is due both Murray (;aunt, Lib-
eral. and (gorge McCuteheon, Progressive
Conservative, fur- the high level on which
they conducted their campaigns. Their con-
duct was an honor to the riding. }'e look'
to the elected, representative, Murray
Gaunf. to eventually develop into a most
capable one despite the fact that he will be
BY-ELECTION
the youngest, meruber of the" Ontario Legis-
lature. •
There are those who feel that the elec-
tion was one solely ' between. two personal-
ities;.. While this,. .1,i'as no doubt true to some
extent, we -believe the party angle played
a strong part. Such being the ease, what-
ever government is in power today-
whether at Ottawa or Toronto - faces
strong criticism. -In this ease, the vote was
one "agin the government." Some time
next year when a provincial election is
held, the by-election in Huroit-liruce,may
serve as a weather vane as to which way
political winds are blowing.
WHERE ARE THE FISH?
\ 'liat •, the iit "iter with Lake Huron
that either the fish are deserting it or else
refuse to be caught? In nolle of the Great
Lakes has commercial' fish landings drop-
ped ,off so inueli during -the first six
months of 1962 as has been the ease in Lake
I-1ur( u. Commercial fishers at both Gode,
rfeh and Bayfield have complained' t -hat
'fishing has,, been poor this season. Their
complaints ..ate substantiated by the esti-
mates dust released by the Ontario Depart-
inent• of Lands and Forests.
The fish. catch in Ontario waters for
the first six months. of 1962 is 15.8 per cent
greater than for -the first half of 1961. In
Lake Huron. however, catch of eommercial
fisherineu.deereased by :37.1 per dent. Lake
Erie slioWed an increase of 29.1 per rent.
Northern Inland ~'Waters shoved an _in-
crease ut 15.1,.p.er cent. Production in Lake
Superior gained :11.1 per cent. Landings
in Georgian Bay More than doubled. The
catch in Lake Ontario, however, dropped
by 11.1 per cent, and Lake St. Clair drop-
ped by 10.5 per client: The North Channel
of Lake I-Ifiroii showed a decrease of 14.6
per Bent. •No explanation is given why Lake
•lluron should lead the parade by plenty in
the decreased amount of 'fish caught by
commercial means," The catch of White-
fish was down to 153,000 pounds froni last
year's first six-month period of 556,000
pounds. Yellow perch was down to 240,000
pounds in c- lntrast to last year's 546,000
pounds. ('hub was down to 784,000 pounds

YOUR CHANCE FOR
GREATNESS
Luke 7:2428
John the baptist was a great
man. We know this to be true,
for Jesus said this of him after
he was put in prison. Jesus
also said "He that is least' in
the kingdom of God is greater
than he." Let us look at things
that made John great and learn
how we may also achieve our
greatness in the eyes of God.
1. John Was Born for a Purpose
1. He was born to announce the
coming of Christ. He was
aware of his purpose as a
revelation _from God.
2. All have a purpose in life.
a. To each of us it is different.
b. No one is left without a
rudder on the sea of life.
c. We can learn our purpose
in life from God when we
obey Him.
II: John Was a Humble Man,
Even in His Greatness
1. To be humble does not mean
to be weak, but proves one's
strength.
a. Humbleness., is that spirit
within an individual which
recognizes his position be-
fore God and man.
b. By deeds, as well as at-
• titude, he displays this
spirit before God and man.
2. The people reasoned with
John, "Art thou the Christ?"
John's reply. was, "He must
increase; .I must decrease."
l ll John ''Was. a 'Man of Char-
acter • -
1. Character is that quality
- which given a person the abil-
ity to see the truth and abide
in the truth.
2. Character must be developed;
a. His years were spent in the
' desert.
b. His parents knew and obey-
ed God.
c. John did not indulge in
the evils of the world
(Luke 1:15):
•3. Christian character gives to
a person the same quality
temper gives to steel. •
a. John kept his character,
even_in most difficult ,times.
b. This character gave John
the strength to denounce
Herod . and Herodias for
their adultery. He was cast
into prison. When Jesus
heard of this, He praised
John and called 'him the
greatest prophet. Jesus
also said, . He that is
least in the' kingdi Pf tof
needed steps. W. 11. Sniitll'a "Canadal:'
published in 1850, set forth that at (lode -
rich "the banks, about 130 feet in height,
approach pretty •close to the lake; except
'about the entrance of the Maitfand.Rive'r
. The principal part of the town is built
oil t he table land above the lake." rt was
necessary. from early days or the settlement
to have wooden stairs, at least for adults;
youngsters descending the river bank be-
low Baeehlex's lumber yard or the Grand
Trunk station never thought o'f such ac-
cessories.

place or even repair them. To some, they

1V. You Too Have 'a Chance for
Greatness
1. Our chance --for

a. It is possible by
b. It is possible by
tomb.
2. John did not have these to
mold his thinking; yet in his
greatest moment, he recogniz-
ed Jesus Christ as the Lamb
of God, who takes away the
sin of the world.
3. Our greatness in the sight of
God depends upon our seeing
Christ as the Lamb of God,
who takes away the sin of
the world, making this ex-
perience personal by faith
and repentance.
