Hazlett and everyone went home happy and able to say it was good for then to have been there for they met with God. Large Crowd The Rally of May 17 was held in the Salvation Army Hall because Evangelistic Centre would not acc- ommodate the crowd. The 3 pan. service was well attend- ed for an afternoon service and those who were able to be there enjoyed themselves. Pastor Ford took the song service which was very lively and then introduced the speaker, Rev. H. R. Swanton of Calvary Church, Woodstock, Ont. The former Pastor of the Penticostal Church in Regina, Sask., Rev. Swanton brought an inspiring Message to those who had gathered. A real Gospel message which every one should have heard. The 8 p.m. service was preceeded by a great Open Air Service. Folk from many ,towns around stepped out and told how Christ had lifted them up from sin and gave them joy with- in. A joy that this old world cannot give nor take away. In the hall again Rev. A. G. Harris took the song service. He was once Assistant Pastor and choir leader of one of our largest churches in Tor- onto, Danforth Gospel Temple. A song "Sail on" was sung by the trio Rev.. and Mrs. Harris and Pastor Ford. Another special number was brought by Rev.. Jolley of Stratford former pastor of Windsor, Ont. He sang the song "After". Musical in- struments•helped the .service very much. Rev. Swanton brought another wonderful Gospel message on the subject "Wounded". He showed that with the Doctors of to -day there are four kinds of wounds and then brought out the fact that Christ suf- fered all of these for our sins. The word tells us that "He was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruis- ed for our iniquities: the chastise- ment of our peace was upon Him:. and with His stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5) Christ died for all our sins. We all are, dead in sin but Christ came that we might have life, full and free. The hall was filled for the evening service and all enjoyed Rev. Swan - ton's message. Ministers lined the platform. Rev. Johnston of Arkona, Rev. Kendrick of Exeter, Rev. Jolley of Stratford, Rev. A. G. Harris of Goderich and Rev. Hazlett of Kin- cardine. The service was closed with Prayer V Clinton Would Be More Beautiful If Vandalism Was Discouraged "I like to come back to Clinton. It is such a pretty town, and so neat and clean." Such was the remark of a former resident, and: now an occasional visitor, to the News -,Record recently. It was 'a very gratifying tribute to the time, moneyl. and thought which Clintonians expend in beautifying their premises. Yet it is to be wished that the beauties of the town were more gen- erally appreciated and valued by our own people. The efforts of many citizens to contribute to that beauty are nullified by the vandalism of oth- Iers. Take the local parks and flower beds on main street, for instance., They make the town a tiing of beau- ty, instead of dull industrial struc- tures. Yet so little is the local pat- riotism esteemed 'by some people that the flowers from the beds are broken. off ,and thrown down want- only. Not only on main street are the flower beds and parks treated tnis way, but almost all over the town. It is hard to understand such con- duct. Usually it is ascribed to children, but there is reason to be- lieve that the dEistruetive instinct is not confined to those too young to know better. What is needed is the creation of a sentiment against such vandalism. Whenever a good, Clintonian sees any 'person young or old, interfering with the beauty of the town he should interfere to check the practice. As to the children, the schools can co-operate by instill- ing in the children respect for pri- vate property. If a committee were formed to join in launching a cam- paign in support of a "More Beauti- ful Clinton." It would encourage the Planting of flower beds, in place of the dis,eouragem,ent that often re- sults in their being abandoned.. V.
