NEWS FROM KINIAR
The Ashfield Presbyterian
Church celebrated 125 years of
service on Sunday June 17,
1973. Ashfield church dates
from 1848 when the. Presbytery
of London recognized it as a
mission station. This was a
number of years before the first
building was, erected and still
more years, before the first
minister was inducted..
The church, howeyer, iarpore
than a building or a minister. It
is a body of believers who
profess faith in Christ and the
Ashfield congregation was that.
The early settlers came from
the Highlands of Scotland.
They were poor in earthly
treasure but they .were honest,
hardworking people, and a
people who feared and worship-
ped" God.
Settlement started about
183*Ind for, .a few years ser-
vices were held in homes and in
the clearing with appointed
elders looking after the,
spirituaL care of the
congregation.
In 1857 it was agreed to
build a church. About 1860 it
was ready for use.
In 1865 the first minister was
called and inducted. He was
the Rev. Alexander Grant from
Owen Sound.
It was unique that the guest
minister for the celebration
should be Rev. Alexander
Grant's great grandson, -the
Reverend Dr. George L.
Douglas. M.S., S.T.M., D.D.
Dr. Douglas comes from
Toronto, and was formerly of
Lucknow. gdve as his ser-
mon for the morning service
"The Church, The Pillar and
Ground of the Truth" and for
the evening service "A Place To
Stand"
e was assisted at both ser -
,.es by Rev. Kenneth J.
.00ney. minister of Ashfield
and Ripley congregations.
Rev Rooney's message to the
congregation reminded them
that they must return to the
source of their heritage which
served their forefathers so well.
The choir gave generously of
their talents who with the help
of the guest soloist Mrs. Ber-
tha Scott of Ripley sang the an-
-thems "Song of Peace" "King
aloricitiV"-Chrige Walked
This Way Before" "Father
Hear Our Prayer", and "Of-
fering Prayer".
Mrs. Scott sang the solo
"Hymns Of The Old Church
Choir" Solo parts were taken
in the anthems by Mrs. Bertha
MacKenzie and her daughters
Dianne and Miss Flora Simp-
son.
The men's quartet of former
years Mr. Allan MacLean of
Collingwood, Mr. Elmer
MacKenzie of Mount Forest,
Duncan Simpson ari67Finlay
MacDonald of Ashfield sang.
Music was under the direc-
tion of the organist Lillian Sim-
pson.
The ladies of the church un-
der the direction of the W.M.S.
President Mrs.- Jane West ser-
ved a bountiful lunch to all
those present following the ser-
vices in the church parlors.
A wonderful • afternoon
followed renewing acquaintan-
ces with former members and
guests who had returned to
help celebrate this memorable
occasion. A birthday cake cen-
tred the tea table which was a
replica of tha,\present church.
When all you have to sell are fads,
you've go to be pushy.
At Rawson & Swartman
we don't have to push.
Rawson and Swartman speci'lizes in
contemporary men's clothing and ac-
cessories. Bu i instead of getting carried
away with every fly-by-night fad, we con-
centrate on good taste. Something our
helpful but unintimidating clothiers and
skillful tailors don't have to push.
You won't see any costumes or
outrageous looks. We'd never sacrifice
good styling for unusualness' sake.
However, jioy will see a terrific collection ,
of very contemporary sults, shirts, ties,
coats, jackets and sportswear for the
fashion -aware gentleman.
Like the smartly styled clothing shown
Visit Rawson and Swartman soon and
see why we say, the more you have to of-
fer, the less you have to push.
