This - article txele be•tato ' •• the beg les spikes of that very *useful commodity, What do we need more in life than courage" to face our daily routine? Nothing ng that has ever beer done in Liffe has ever been accomplished wthout perseverance and courage. As we look at our electric lamps. .we little realize theg •reat amount of hardwork and discouragement there was behind the invention of that bulb, but filially •courage and persistence, triumplhed. Henry A. Campbell who worked for flftyRotre yeaye for the noted inventor, Thomas A. Edison, tells the following in re- gard to this wonderful '£ discovery. When Mr. Edison realized that his dream' was likely to come true he closeted himself in his laboratory for ten days. No one; wth the exception of Mr. Campbell was admitted. His meals were brought to 'him and at times he would lay his head on his desk and snatch a moment's Bleep, but that was all. At the end of the ten days, dVIr. Edison went to his home and instead of going to his room Went into the living room where Mrs. Edison was and threw himself on the couch where he slept for hours. Later it was discovered that when Mr. Edison left the laboratory he had succeeded in making the electric lamp. The same courage was exhibited by Sir Frederick Hauling and his co-workers before the world was given insulin, that remarkable arrest- er of diabetes.

Many of ns today owe our lives to. such courage. Surgeons who have Get] as their Instructor go far"'to• wards relieving :pain. May our Heav- enly Father sustain them and give. them the required courage to carry on their wonderful work. Our fear to face the future is in the majority of cases due to our lack of courage and our failure to lean on God who alone can and will direct us .in what we undertake, There are two classes of !people in the world, the fighters and the quit- ters. We do net care to be classed anlo'ng the 'latter class, but many of us really belong there just simply because we lack courage. We can' either march forward with the cour- ageous or retreat with • the quitters. Numbers of us join in the ranks of those Who are marching on, but we are not long there until we become tired, step to .one side and watch the others go by. Not only do we stop but we are quite willing to criticize those who struggle on. No one ever gets to the summit of the hill without courage. There are many handicapped people who make us very mach ashamed of ourselves. • They have little to work on except their courage, but with God's help, they have strengthened MEAT ;if !ri!Ir.li?'!::.-n±i Fri± aid ESS/ Choice Rump Roast of Com.

For his part in the large-scale' contribution made by the C,N.R, to the Allied cause during the war he was honoured by His Majesty the IKele Last June when he was ere - seed a Commander of the Order of the British umpire. Mr. Metcalf was born at Toronto Junction,; Ont, in 1395 and began railroading, as a junior clerk in the operating department of the Cana- dian Northern in February, 1910. Hard work, a lceen interest in railway affairs and an attractive personality, qualities Which stood him in good stead throughout the years, brought him early recognition and advancement. He was Mayor of the Town of Mount Royal, residential suburb of Montreal, for Nis years, following four years as alderman. - .• that charaeteristie of their lives until they pass many on the road of life who have the use of their hands and legs. It is not always easy to keep going but there is something .within us which will net let us stop. We have a God given work to do and we dare not cease until we have accomplished our ambition or until God calls us Home. We are 'cowards if we step out of the marching line. Yet how Many of us are willing to do so. There are hundreds who are much less able to work than we are and yet they keep cheerfully on their way. As we look over the past year are we satisfied withuwhat we have done? We must all admit that we are not. We have failed many times. Why? Because we have not had the courage to keep advancing. After Christmas one year a minister' asked the Sunday School scholars if Santa Claus had been good to them. In the majority of cases the answer was "Yes," Then he asked "Better than you deserved?" The response to that question was very faint. Our earnest prayer should be that God will accept our thanks for His great goodness to u$ and that He will give us courage to carry on His work. If we do not wish to co- operate with Him in His labor of love, we cannot expect Him to help us in what we choose to call our own feeble endeavors. One of the greatest examples of Human courage we havein the world today is that of Miss Helen Seller, the woman who from her early child- hood has been blind, deaf and dumb. ex One has only to see her to realize !SOWN `COUNCIL PAYS DECEMBER BILLS During December 1940, expendit- ures totalled-$2,546.82,against re- ceipts of $362.20, according td the re-,. poo of Finance C'onnnnittee approv- ed at the final meeting of'the ,1946 Clinton '.Gown, Council., Aid, M.

News4tecord Yh _ PHONE 4 CLTNTON - — — E what an inspiration she is to those who are in any way afflicted. It is true she had wonderful and patient teachers and companions, but had it not been for her own courage she would never have risen to the high academic standing she holds today, nor to be the great help and inspira- tion she is to all who in any way conn in contact with her, The late President Franklin D. !Roosevelt is another striking estainple of courage under great difficulty and handicap. Many of us have a great deal for which to be thanicfnl but are we is the question? We should have a courage which will enable us to conquer fear, We cannot do that without Christ. We have been careless about allowing the, love of God to dwell in us. We allow everything else to take the piece of that love. We wonder Why peace is not conis ing more quickly to this old world of ours. We have no one to blame but ourselves. •Christ, the King of Peace, will not reign until Hisown good time. Ile has given us a chance to reform but we have proved to Him both after World War 1 and now World War II that many Will have nothing to do with Him. Not until we have the eeurage to say: "I will take Christ as my personal Saviour and endeavour to persuade others to do the same," eau we ex- pect to have Peace not only in the world, but in our own hearts. There is nothing can give us Peace Brie the Spirit of God dwelling in us. When we begin to lose OUT courage then we .may expect to encounter disaster and when the thin edge of the wedge is once in it is very) hard to get it out again, but it is not an impossibility. .• 'Many of us today are not even try- ing to keep our courage up. May God grant that we may realize that it is His love which .we need and ere we go any further may we accept Him into our lives. "There are no mistakes with God, ' And God makes no mistakes; He gives in love, Ile takes in love, He gives before He takes. His tender love could never cause His child a needless tear; Hereafter we shall understand What mystifies us here." a PEG„ Domestic consumption of poultry creat was probably higher in 1941i than ever before. Despite this there were ample supplie's during the fall season, with some available for ex- port. A contract was made with Britain, fbr 12,500,000 lb. of Canadian poultry to be exported duting 1940. The contract includes all chilkens and weighing ea w g g 3 lb, and over, with no price differential between light and heavy birds. This is a distinct advantage to producers, says, the Current Review of the Agricultural Conditions in Canada, for the reason that lightweight birds are generally quoted at prices considerably lower than heavy birds. * ER * VETERAN ACCLAIMED SEAFOlRTH—One of the outstand- ing features of •Seaforth's 1947 muni- cipal election was the re-election of Reeve John F. Daly, who has been M municipal politics for some 40 years. He has served the town as mayor, reeve, councillor and chairman of the Public Utilities Commission. That this service has been apprec- inted is evidenced by the fact that he has again been re-elected by ac - He has been in business on Seaforth's- main street for 57 years,'and is the oldest Ford dealer in Canada in point of service. Unfortunately, lie is now confined to his home through illness. OBITUARY MRS. JOHN PHILLIPS (By our Auburn correspondent) Mr. and Mrs. E.
