HELP MAKE LIONS
DA'l A BIG' SUCCESS
IFprty-seven picks and shovels can
accomplish much 'in an afternoon if
they, are ,put into action, bolstered
,up dby the right kind of enthusiastic
human effort. . This was exemplified
recently when :meirubers of the Lions
Club, assisted by a manly bunch of
boys from the Collegiate Lnstittite,
hl a few hours' time dug a trench
over three hundred feet in length and
averaging fully three feet in depth.
through loam,clay, gravel anti
stone. This ,was4>;;done to ae6omnso
date the 12,in tile to divert, tempor-
arily, the natural 'oourse oft Silwvr
Creek, in order that work in connec
tion with the swimming pond might
be 'simplified. W'hen„tihe Collegians
arrived at the`pond with picks,
shovels ,and beaming countenances,
they Were: greeted 'with' a - :hearty,
"Hip hip, hip, .hurrah" from the
Lions A few minutes later, forty-
seven energetic , men and -'boys were
head over heels in work.. All this
goes to prove that •soanething •worth.
while was back of this activity. Tltis.
something worth while is the pros-
pective, 'completion of the much -
talked about swimming pond and
recreation park. And on June 4th,
you—meaning every citizen ,will
have the opportunity to show the
Lions Club, likewise the 'boys and
Mills of the town, that you are truly
with them in spirit. Make the most
you can of this day. help things
along by treating your friends (and
enemies if you have a few) to
wholesome ice cream, candy, etc.,
bought at the Olympia (Restaurant.
Get your dinner there also. This
signifies that you should take your
entire 'family to the dinner, It will
be 'served from 5 p.m. till 8 p.m. and
the price will he :fifty cents a plate.
All the,,profits on your purchases will
go to the ;Lions Club. The Band
Concert in the evening in Victoria
Park is something nobody should
tniss. After the band concert •danc-
ing will take place in the G.W.V.A,
rooms and a small fee charged those
who wish to limber up. Music will
be provided 'by the Crescent Five
Orchestra. The Band Concert and.
dance will make a splendid "finale"
to the day's proceedings and when it
is all over, whether; you • have been
one of the few who are likely to go
to bed early in the evening, or one
of the many who will be nodding
good -night to the man in the ,noon
in the "wee sma' 'oors o' th'
mornin'," it is sincerely 'hoped that
before you cross the. 'border to
dreamland, you will virtually say,
"Welt, I've, -spent more than I
intended to, but it was -Worth while.
So with wishing the Lions Club and
the boys and girls of the town all
success, I'll just roll over and call it
a 'full day, well spent"

ture lesson was -read by Miss Jean
Webster. The topic for the evening,
"The Church and the Labor Ques-
tion," was •taken 'by Miss Gladys Hol-
land A piano selection by Miss
Evelyn Harburn and a solo by Miss
Dorothy Robinson proved to be
very pleasing numbers. A contest

WELCOME TO ALL
Generous offerings hoped for.
ference,
At the annual district meeting of
the Methodist 'church, held recently
at Dungannon the following resolu-
tion was adopted, -showing the atti-
tude of the Methodist Church to the
recent amendments to the 0.T.A. by
the Ontario Government.
1. That the history •of the'traffic
in intoxicating liquors furnishes in-
vanialbe and conclusive proof that all
efforts to so regulate the business as
to bring it' into harmony with the
spirit of Christ a
s
we understand nd him
and the teachingof His Church,have
altogether is thereforwith
regret and apprehension that we con-
template the results of the recent
amendments to the O.T.A. permitting
the licensed sale of 4.4 beer:
2. The attitude of the Premier, the
members of his cabinet, and his sup-
porters towards the temperance peo-
pk of Ontario very greatly disappoint
and bitterly grieve ins. The civil gov-
ernment that should be the 'friends of
the Christian Church and furnish
every facility within it'•s power for
the execution of her Divine mission
is found in this instancein our 'opin-
ion to be allied with one of the most
effective antagonists of the Christian
religlion--the traffic in intoxicating
liquor.
3. We ywould exhort our people to
with renewed determination, promote
by all legitimate means, abstinence
from the use ,of in'toxicant's and the'
total prohibition of 'the liquor traffic.
By agitation, education and personal
consecration, by prayer and the bless-
ing of 'God, the Kingdom of right-
eousness will triumph over the King-
dom of evil.
4. Inasmuch as the rules of the
Metho'dis 't church strictly forbids
"drunkenness, buying or selling spir-
ituous liquors or drinking them, un-
less in oases of extreme necessity."
And inasmuch as it is 'demonstrat-
ed ibeyond •dou'+It that 4.4 beer does
visibly intoxicate many people and
hence a "spirituous liquor" we there-
fore
herefore exhort all our people to abstain
from the use of this beverage and
keeping •pr selling the same, and to
use their influence against it in every
legitimate way.
' 5, We 'commend to our people the'
following recafnsn'endation by the ex
ec'utive of the. Prohibition Union of
Ontario "that we adopt as a .cardinal
doctrine of our political creed the
, freedonn from party domination of
members of the Legislature and Par-
liament on the Prohibition issue."
