A holiday falling on a Mon-
day such as Victoria Day,
May 20, ,has a crippling effect
'n,. . getting.._.a weekly news-
paper out on time that week.
Subscribers have a habit of
forgetting that _ newspapers
should have holidays, too, and
expect the paper out as us-
ual, even though there is .one -
day less in the week in which
to do so
Consequently, the printing
staff of The Signal -Star will
work Monday as usual. Ad-
vertisers and news corres-
pondents are urged to ''have
their copy in by Friday or
Saturday oflhis week for
next week's paper. Such co
operation' will be most ap-
preciated. Then, ..all. day Fri-

About 20 Ministers of .
the' Huron Presbytery -of
the United Church of Can-
ada held both morning and
afternoon„ sessions at North
Street United Church. •on
Wednesday.
devoted to a discussion on
the . revisionof the mar-
riage ceremony , - se . . ! y
the United urchj, ° Can-
ada. Chairman for this was
Rev. W. J. -ten Hoopen of
Goderich.
A discussion' on the Uni-
ted Church General Council
report on baptism' and
church . membership • took
place at tlie. afternnoon ses-
sion. 'Chairman for this was
Rev.' Arthur .Higginbottom
of Walton. -
Should . ministers marry
those who have no interest
-
h the --religious aspect -of-t-he_-
Marriage ceiremony, which, in
some cases even includes
non believers? This was a
problem which confronted
-the morning •session.
It was felt that ministers
had two alternatives depend-
ing on the particular situation
Which . faced them. These
were to either: 1. Send the
couple to a judge or magis-
trate for a purely secular
marriage or, 2. Strip the cere-
mony of its religious elements
and perform ' a strictly sec-
ular ceremony as an author -
the
latter were done, it would
be completely 'inappropriate
for the ceremony to be per-
formed in the church ,and
should be done either in the...
minister's study or at his
home.
. It wag the general feeling
Of the meeting that a relig-
ious marriage service should
be reserved for those Who
have a religious faith and
desire the blessings of Cod
on their - marriage.
The popular custom of hav-
ing a wedding march played
at the marriage .ceremony
came under discussion. There
was-a--strongpreference shown- -
among the ministers present
that a good religious hymn
should be played rather than
playing a wedding march.-
' The new proposed - United
Church wedding Service was
seen as being'definitely des-
igled to point up - the relig-
ious significance of the cere-
mony rather than just mak-
ing -a spectacle of it.
Under what circumstances
should an infant be baptized
when the parents are not in
fellowship with the church?
Taxpayers • in the Town of
Goderich will be receiving their
annual tax notices today follow- Il
ing e ma1IIT g by E.' Jessop,

ber of out-of-town ratepayers

vance -of •the -•.local.. ones.. _ ....._...._.
Rates o Up
The commercial and indus-
trial rate this year has been
set at 80.5 mills, representing
an increase of three mills over
last year. The residential and
farm rate has been set at 72.2
mills, an . increase of .99 mills
ovlastt _ear's rate
•-a-•-P ''l ing er c9 ents on an assessment
faced the afternoon Session.
Among the points brought
out in this discussion was the
fact that a child should not
be deprived of the right to
be baptized just because the
parents of the child were not
in fellowship with the church.
It was• further pointed out
that such an occasion was an
opportunity for ministers to
point out to parents the im-
portance of joining the
church.

Equalize Rates
Originally it appeared that
four ,rates might be quoted ow-
ing `to a slight difference be-
tween the public. and separate

justment in the separate school
rate has resulted in the setting
of identical rate's, thus elimin-
ating the two extra classifica-
