For three years the Woman's Associa- tion, the Y.P.S. and the Young Men's Bible Class have been accumulating a fund for the installing of electric lighting in the church auditorium and school room. The hopes of those who have been so engaged are at last happily r'eaI- ized and on the dates referred to a- bove the dedication of the new light- ing system took place. On Sunday evening a special ser- vice was held, the Rev. Arthur Sin- clair, chairman of the Presbytery, tieing the visiting speaker. Mr. Sin. clair delivered a splendid sermon suitable to the occasion, the choir of the church provided appropriate mu- sic and the minister, Rev. W. A. Bremner, conducted the dedication service: On Monday evening the church was again well filled to listen to a splendid programme. This pro. gramme was provided by the choir. the young men's quartette, Mr. Jar- vis Morton, Miss Eva Stackhouse Miss Aim Stewart, Mrs. Alton John- ston and Miss 'Gladys Addison acting es accompanists. The Rev. Mr. Poulter, the only neighboring minister who could make it convenient to be present, gave a very appropriate address, congratula- ting the congregation on the success- ful consummation of so important an enterprise. Mr. J. B. Mustard, secretary of the Board of Managers, gave a des- cription of the system and the nego- tiatiors that led up to its completion by Mr. Gordon Howes of Clinton, the contractor. LANDWARD MOVEMENT BENEFITS UNEMPLOYED Not since the War has Canada ex perienced such a landward novemen' from the urban communities as that which has taken place during the past year, according to Dr. W. J Black, Director of Colonization for the Canadian National Railways Commenting on this movement, Dr. Black says that the demand for farm lands has not been equalled for many years, and is due to the movement o` unemployed families from urban cen- tres who, through force of economic circumstances, have found it neces• sary to revert to their former occu- pation of farming. These families and single men, who left the fame for the cities in more prosperour times, now find themselves in th ranks of the unemployed, and with what capital they have left are anx- ious to get re-established where thw will be self-sustaining and sure of at least a living. Those who are going back, many of them to their *he home communities, are securing ran,' for less money and on better terms titan they could have secured the same properties at any time during the last twenty years. The vast majority 'of the "back -to• the-landers" are returning to rare districts with a determination to stick, in spite of the difficulties facing them. They realize that it spite of low prices they will be able to provide food and shelter, SEAFORTH: A swine marketing course, which is of special interest to the farmers of the district, who are well represented opened in the town hall Tuesday with Ian McLeod, dis- trict agricultural representative at Clinton, in charge. Mr. 'McLeod spoke specially on the competition being of on feeding, rearing and -marketing of litters extending front. February to April 10 in connection with which $202 has been already won by Huron farmers who show more interest than most counties in the competi- tion..: "Out of the 14 entries in 1932. eleven carne to Huron County. Last year our hogs showed 86 per 'cent 'of all other hogs in the two highest grades m,adit up of over 25 per cent select bacon and 58 per cent , baeen. In the 1832 'bacon litter competition Frank E.
