Were they just dreams or have those vis- ions into the futute been realized? Each one must anevver that question for himself or herself. It is indeed a pleasure to watch children at play. Their actions in the most eases are the result of dreams. They build castles and fort- resses of blocks with their different regiments of soldiers :nal-el:Mg or fighting. May God grant that they will never need to see the realization of their dreams! Years ago it was a customary play a little gide to gather small stones and on a window ledge for the outline of houses. In the different rooms pretty, stones served as the occupants of the home. There are not many who will forget the time when a clothe took sick and the mother ()ailed in the doctor. He a little playmate, made a casual examination of the "ehild," and pre• scribed medicine of some kind which was a "sure cure." Many children who thus played made up their minds then bhat they would be a nurse or a :teeter and their dream in countless cases -came true. As they played their thought was net that they were children but that they were anxious parents or medical men. They have played school with the idea that they would scene day be Teal teachers; they preached to a congregation, their sermons were 'or - haps not very orthodox, but at an rate they were imitating the minister who stood in the pulpit of the church which they attended with their par- ents. Their play was not always educe - Venal or 111,31e:cave, often he'd -ems ,here stage 1.

Childish dresms have to a certain extent faded hut they ware ambitions ce the little en -s, Mani' Of these dreams ham :tree true 'an.: to-dtly we have roee end we.een in high etre° Who hre simply 'fulfilling the dreams of their childhood. Dreains, in the sense of which we are speaking, have to ,do With the future, hut we can by no means ex- pect them all to be realized. Count- less immhers of our young men and women who -had high ideals of what they intended to do with their lives have had to put those thoughts to one side. God has some other plan for them. We have just been hon- oring the memmy of those who gave up their education plan or work to heed the call of their country. Their ambition will never be realized, their dream faded when they gave their livee for our freedom. The story is told of Sir Harry Lauder, who at one time worked in a coal pit. He had a vision that he did not want his son to work as he had done. When circumstances per - :flitted, he bought a beautiful estate in his homeland, expecting to retire there on, and when he had left earthly things behind him, his son, of whom i he was very fond, would nherit the estate. That son paid the supreme sacrifice on the fields of Flanders. Apparently the dream of Sir Harry faded for all time. However after atime, in which he felt he could not carry on, he realized that there were thousands of others in the same position. To help to eheer them up was the means of bringing himself out of near deepondency. His dream NOTICE VOTERS' LIST 1946 TOWNSHIP OF STANLEY COUNTY OF HURON • NOTICE is hereby given that I have complied with Section 8 of the Voters' Lists Act and that I have posted up at my office, on the 194h day of October, 1946, the list' of all persons entitled to vote in the said Municipality at the Municipal Elections, and that such list eernains there for inspection. And I hereby call upon all Voters to take immediate proceedings to have any errors or omissions corrected according to law, the last day for appeal being the 22nd day of November, 1946. (Signed)—FRED WATSON, Clerk, Township of Stanley 47-b was shattered but he created a new vistion and made a ,grand success of attaining that goal. It was not easy for birn. Nor is it so for mothers and fathers ender the Mlle ciremnstances to -day, but the thought that those who have gone would not want their loved ones to worry •and brood over their loss will oflAmes be the means of a new dream being sought and the working out of it in many cases looked forward to. As we work at making others bappy we certainly do not have time to ponder Over the failure of our dreams. Not only ehildren dream dreams but as a rule parents dream for them. We cannot blame children for leav- ing God out of their vision:4 of the future for in this day and generation, children, at least many of them are not taught anything about their Sav- iour. Parents very often expect God to give the very best to their child- ren and yet they ignore Him entirely. Is that fair? If we refused 40 help an earthly friend could we expect that one to assist us in a time of need.. Parents seem to be so reluctant in regard to. -speaking to their Children about Christ They are quite often not living up to. these things them- selves and how can they talk to their ehildren about something about which they know nothing. Parents you do not know .what the future of elour son or daughter may be, but beginning with their earliest years they should be trained so they will he able to fill graciously any position which may open for them. Mrs. George Black in her book "My Seventy Years," quotes her father as saying When -she was quite a young girl “Sme day one of my girls may be the wife of the President of the United States, and live in the White House, and I want her to know how to fill a position like that. On the other hand, one of my girls may have to work for the President's wife and I want her to know how to do that equally well." Parents, the future a your children is largely in your hands. Teach them to dream but dream with them. Phe age certainly has changed but the same .Chirist is on the throne of the world, the Bible is the same and the same judgment will be meted out to us when our earthly course is over. Too much stress carmot be laid on the fact of the responsibility of parents towards their children. They are just a loan and if parents do not accept the re- sponsibility which Christ placed on them when the child was conceived they will have to answer for it. Par- ents think -seriously of that. You may say "I had dreams that my child- ren would do this or that, but they would not obey me. Does it ever occur to' you that there was a first time when that child as a wee tot refused to obey and you let him get away with it. That Was the beginning of the el -lettering of your dreams. If you are not a believer in Jesus Christ you have no one to help you at elicit a time, but if you believe in Him yoa are free to take your problems to Him and He will help you. All our earthly dreams are nothing in comparison to the wonderful time when we will step into our little bark and set out for the Better Land where, if we are Christ's followers, we will -spend Eternity. There we will meet our Saviour and one loved ones. That dream is above any which could possibly apply to our highest earthly aspiration. The attainment of our hap,piest dream here is nothing to uiirTrws NoommomMINIMMIMINNII.N*VENOMMOOMmoneenase WOULD SPEND $325,000 GODERICH—A. delegation asked Town Council to prepare a by-law providing for the issuing of debent- :nee to the value of $325,000, and submit it to the voters at forthcom- ing municipal elections. The money would pay for planned additions and repairs to Victoria public shool. Mem_ hers of the delegation pointed out that half the cast of the work would be paid by the Ontario Government. It was referred th the Town Solicitor. e * ON ALL-STAR TEAM .WINGHAM--Frank Sturdy, Wing - ham, lute received word that he had made the all-star team for Canada for Dominion marksmen.

BARLY ELECTIONS STEPHEN TOWNSHIP — At a special meeting of Stephen Township Council it was decided to hold nomina- tions •and elections in Nevember and early December.

Nominations will be held on Friday, November 22 and elections if neces- sary en Monday, December 9. what is waiting for us in the Beyond. All that it is necessary for us to clo is just to freely accept God's gift of love -and He will make that vision come true. - Let us make it a practice to dream that dream, and include others in it and some day, it may be even to -day, we will see the realization of it. "Amid the willows on the bank, I' sit and gaze into the stream, The music of whose ripple charms Its way into my quiet dream. The crytsal waters seem to me, As peacefully they wend their way, Like that glad stream of Holy Writ Which flows amid the Heavenly way,, Where trees of life true healing yield; Where we shall see Him face to face, The Christ who died, and rose that we 1VLight in His Kingdom find a place. Like angels whisper in the breeze, Comes, to my ear this message sweet, 'Rejoice! for in a better world, Your vision shall be made com- plete'." 14pEGII Cherokee Rodeo Co., of Gone, Texas Seaforth Arena November 21,28 • COWBOYS ,0 COWGIRLS • BEAUTIFUL COW PONIES • 30 PROFESSIONAL RODEO PEOPLE • HIGH SCHOOLED AND DANCING HORSES • CLOWN AND TRAINED MULE (Comic) • • OUTLAW BUCKING HORSES • • WILD BRAHMA STEERS • �43 HEAD OF STOCK • GENERAL ADMISSION ADULTS 75c CHILDREN 35c Sponiored by Seaforth 'Amateur Athletic'Association OBITUARY__1 ROBERT .T.
