ed in all fruit -growing. centres.
Mr. Kennedy evidently intended ,to
confine his . talk to the marketing
end, but on someone asking that tax-
es might be cut in half he said:
"You'll never live to see it. , We
have risen to a standard of living
such as there never, was before, and
I for one, will never see the farmer
go- back to the old standard. We
f5 ners want. our • motor ears,, and
we're going to have thein. We want -
geed ryids. to drive those ears; and
We're going to have thein. We want.
electricity in our homes; • we want.
our farm houses made farm homes:
We don't .want to have to be apolog-
etic for ,being farmers."

of Goderioh, Blyth, Millett and 'Clln
ton Lodges, attended divine worship
Sunday afternoon in St. Mark's Ang-
lican church where the services were
conducted by the rector, Rev, L. V.
.Pocock. An instructive sertnen was
preached by Rev. J. N. H. Mills, rec-
tor of St. George's church, Goderich,
and a past master of the Brantfor.s
Masonic Lodge. As Morning Star
Lodge
is situated at Carlow, in the,
centre .of a large rural area bound-
ed by the lodges of Goderieh, Luelt-
now, Blyth, Londesboro and Clin-
ton the committee in charge decided
to revive an old custom of attending•
service at different places and Au-
burn was chosen. The brethren met
in the Foresters' Hall and after'the
opening of the lodge by the W. M.
Bro. Ernest Mitchell paraded to the
church under direction of master on
ceremonies Bro. H. Hill, ,
The members cif tate Baptist church
who held services each Sunday af-
ternoon withdrew to attend in a
body, also.
Rev. Mr. Mills' text WAS: "Anel
now abideth, faith, hope and charity,
these three, but the greatest of these•
is charity."'. The speaker dwelt et
some length cin the origin of the
terms "free" and "accepted" mason.
He explained that at the 'building of
King Solomon's temple the members
of the vast army orf aneut one quar-
ter of a million masons and arti-
sans who labored for seven years at
the construction work were ' given
exemption from taxation by Solomon
or in ..other words were made "free."
hong after when Icing .Solomon's
temple had been destroyed and pre•
parations were being,. made., for the
building of the second' temple it waa
found that the posterity of the nm -
sons who had built the first temple
had retained 'the ''skrB''and °learning
of their forefathers to stolon it degree
that they Kele "aceepted"•.as fit and
proper persons to. carry., on its eene
structiele ...,
Toward the, conclusion of his ad-
dress the preacher erfiphasized that
the, only hope foe relief from the
present wood conditions of defies -
stun was in the exercise cnf, charity
or ',aceording,•to•,tho.revised version
. 14i'e"' n' such • a Way es, to correct.
.the want, and enffeiing.that now ex-
itts while' the world' is; Messed with
an abundance.
During the offertory Miss Nina
Johnston -of' Ifirkt4't, who anent the
'ge'ok-end at home, song "0. Holy
Hour."
After the Masonic' brethren re-
turned .to the Forester's Hall a nio-
tion of thanks and 'appreeietien was
expressed to Rev.•J. N, I3, Milts and
Rev. L. V. Ptteoek for the instructita
sermon ,and the use of St. Mark's
church was moved - -by .Bro, B. C.
