WINTHROP CHURCH
FiFTY YEARS OLD
Coven United Church Celebrates
Golden Jubilee
Caven United Church, Winthrop,
celebrated its golden jubilee, Sunday.
The church was crowded at both ser-
vices, when Principal Gaudier, of
Knox College, Toronto, delivered able
and appropriate addresses. Special
music was furnished by the choir.
The congregation was organized in
1875, with Rev. Thomas Thomson as
its first minister, Rev. Principal Caven
officiating at the opening services.
Mr. Thomson was succeeded in 1877
by Rev Peter Musgrove, whose pas-
torate=extended over a quarter of a
century. In 1903, he was followed by
Rev.- David Carswell, and in 1920,
by .Rev. J. A. Ferguson,. B.A., the
fourth minister in the fifty years of
its history.
Two of the earliest members, Mr.
and Mrs. James Millen, still survive
as active members of the congrega-
tion, Mr. Millen having been an elder
of the congregation for fifty years.
'On Tuesday evening a fowl supper
and entertainment was held in the
church, with an excellent program of
music, reading's and addresses,

The Right Hon. Arthur Meighen
is an able election campaigner. Op-
inions differ as to the attractiveness
or otherwise of his personality, but
as this is not a character sketch we
shall confine ourselves to some of his
promises. Doubtless, like other poli-
ticians, he is not a bad promiser. To
the French Canadian he says, or Lav-
ergne says if for him, that, if elected,
there will be eompulsory French los-
sons for Ontario. Upon what string
ie he playing now? Mr. Meighen
knows, and no one better, that he has
no power to interfere with education
in this province, v ce but does the average
P
t;
habitant know it7
Is the statement, or promise, made
in the hope of fomenting racial tama-
ble in Ontario? So far as we know,
this does not exist, outside, perhaps,
some organizations individuals,
m i idu
nes
who, whatever the strength of their
loyalty, always remember that high-
ly popular person-numyee one.
Again be predicts general prosper-
ity if his "high and still higher" tar-
iff plank finds favour with the elec-
tors, but can he make hie promise
good? , He is silent on the question
of the Senate, although some time
ago he voted for the abolition of the
Red Chamber. He.has not told us
what high protection has done for
certain workers in New England who
are in a sorry plight today, notwith-
standing a tariff, that, according tos
his ideas,'should have them all on
"Easy Street'"
Be has quoted figures to prove that
our best blood and brain are rushing
to the United States, but strangely
enough, has forgotten to mention the
thousands who are flocking back to
their native land, glad to get home
and to stay there, They have been
disillusioned. The green fields of far
away exist only in the imagination,
and to -day, population for population,
Canada is a better country for the
workingman than the country to the
south.
This election will be won by soma'
thing better than mere promises.
Principles, not promises; Resets not
froth; honesty of minion and not
political expediency will carr the
day for the Liberal party. Evory-
whe'o the spirit of Liberalism is
attongthened and invigorated by the
frankness' and etraighi icrwardness of
tho Liberal leader. itis followers are
no lees imbued With the same spirit;
and, if given a weeking majority,
Mackenzie Xing will soon neve to
the country t n14it there le at least one
statesmati in Canada'who coin deal
successfully with her ptohlems and
ensure her happlriells and proi�perity.

• 9 T'homas Melghan, •
While it may be true that in the
making of moving pictures Can-
ada lags a trifle behind the United
States, there is at learnt one particu-
lar In which American producers are
becoming mare and more dependant
upon the Dominion for the proper
production of their super flints. And
that particular is -scenery.
They may have their stars, their
mechanical contrivances, their ex-
perience and their wealth, but dur-
ing the past few years they have
learned that for sheer beauty of
scenery and splendor of "settings",
the Canadian Pacific Rocky Moun-
tains are unsurpassable. That this
discovery was made at all le due
mainly to one, Mr. Ernest Shipman.
Two or three years ago it occurred
to Mr. Shipman (who has produced
some notable pictures in his time)
that there were certain spots in the
Rocky Mountains, such as Banff,
Lake Louise, Emerald Lake and teet-
environs, which were, cn account of
their singular beauty, admirably
adapted to the production of North-
ern dramas. i So he niarsballed his
forces, placed his beloved mega-
phone securely under his arms and
embarked, via the Canadian Pacific
Railway, for the Rocky Mountains..
Here, 'with Henry MacRae direct-
ing, he proceeded to film "The For-
eigner" near the shores of Lake
Louise, with tbe magnificent moun-
tains for a Background, and, for a
stage, one of the most exquisite
spots on earth. The result was that,
not only did he produce a splendid
picture but that the Rockies sprang
into instant popularity as a setting
for northern dramas.
Since then scores of other "super
films" have been produced and many
villains have paid the penalty of
their foul deeds, many modest maid-
ens have yielded to the wooing of
strong, silent men; many dauntless
heroes have faced the nameless ter-
rors of the Alaskan wilds, on the
peaceful shores of Emerald Lake and
the- innocent highway between Banff
and Windermere.
Among the most notable pictures
screened entirely or in part, with the
Rockie•e for e. hnelteroun1, are "Bank
to God's Country". "The River's
End", "The Alaskan", "Empty
Hands", "The Sky Pilot", "Glen-
garry Schooldays'„ "The Man From
Glengarry", "The Valley of Silent
Men","Frivolous Sal", "Strongheart"
and The Foreigner".
The chances are, then, that when
you sit in your favorite movie house
and gaze in silent admiration on the
forbidding beauty of Alaska, the
hills of Shasta or the still Sierras.
you are, in reality, gazing at some-
thing far nearer home, not nearly so.
forbidding and infinitely more beau
tifui--the Rocky Mountains them-
selves,
So, America may have her Holly-
wood and her monopoly of the in-
dustry. but now that the value of the
Rockies as a place where people nlay
sboot the rapids, kill each other,
make love, win fortunes and indulge
in the other pleasant pastimes pecu-
liar to moviedom, has been realized,
it is to be hoped that Canada's posi-
tion in the realan of the silent drama
will shortly become more prominent
than it has lee a in the past
The Rockies are now easily ac-
cessible, there are Canadian Pacific
hotels at some of the most attractive
points, the light, atmosphere and
other conditions are good, and there:
is no reason inthe world why they-
should
heyshould not eventually become a ver-
itable "Hollylwood of the Hills,"
relate Harvest.
Late Blight.
Late Blight affects the tuber of the
potato as well as the vine, and the
disease lives over from year to year
in the seed. When harvesting the
potato crop cull out all tubers with
dark sunken areas on the surface and
a brownish discoloration of the nesh.
Black Scarf.
This fungus develops small black
specks on the surface of the tuber.
Such should not be stored for seed.
Stene End Rot.
This trouble is evidence by a de-
cayed and sunken area at the stem
end of the tuber. When a cross sec-
tion Is made near the steam end a
brownish ring is usually' plainly ris-
ible.
Tuber Injury.
Care should be taken to avoid
bruising the tubers while harvesting.
Roughly handled potatoes usua;.y
have a high percentage of dry rot. '

HEATING SYSTEMS
John Sutherland & Sons, Ltd.,
Guelph, the well known insurance
agents, had the followingg printed on
a card, and sent out in 'their business
envelopes, There are some good
recommendations to follow: A wise
man once said that it is easier to keep
out of trouble than to get out of
trouble. We therefore suggest that,
you test out your heating plant NOW t
and avoid the worry of continuous '
trouble and poor heating results dur-
ing the Winter Season.
Recommendations.
1 --Get the ffrnaco furnace pipes
and chimney flues thoroughly clean-
ed
2 -ave your plant examined by an
expert and aece■asry=repairs made
before cold weather sats in.
8, -When a hot air furnace is used
clean out aU floor registers and hot
Mr pipes.
4 -Clean out your furnace room, re-
move all rubbish, and keep a clear
space of at least six feet between
your furnace and all combustible
material.
5 -DO IT NOW and keep this card
on your desk until everything is
ready for that "blast• o' Januar'
