Hugh C. Wilson. Members of Clinton Junior Farmers and Institute constitut- ed the choir, and a solo was rendered by James V. Corran.

The pastor extended a cordial welcome to the visitors, and ex- pressed gratitude to the choir. The lesson was from Mark 4: 1-9. "Most of you will agree that springtime is one 'of the pleas- antest times of the year," Rev. Mr. Wilson said in introducing his sermon, "Our eyes are open- ed to the beauties of nature; our hearts may be opened to the message of spring. Surely God speaks to us in the spring." The speaker said that the com- ing of spring brings a great change in the habits of many classes of people, but no more than to those getting their living from the land. He pointed out that 30 per cent of the people of this country are employed in working on the land. A great responsibility rested upon the farming population to provide food for the world. Rev. Mr, Wilson said that the bedrock of rural economy is the family farm, and he wished there were more of them. Just as there was an upsurge of life on the land at this period of the year, so he hoped there would be an upsurge of spiritual life among those living on the land.
