"An Ideal Town." The judges of the contest criticized one pupil. because his ideal town had no church in it. The error alight have been attributed to school -boy thought- lessness, but nevertheless it was a revelation of a lack of church con- sciousness due to a lack of religion in the boy's home, There is a tendency to crush Christianity out of our land and out of the consciousness of its citizen- ship. When a Canadian comprehends the Nazi threat to the national and Political structure of a democratic society, he finds that the last bul- wark against enslavement is found within the spirit of Christian faith. It is not difficult to conceive of alien forces and ideologies supplanting or destroying religious freedom but it is also possible to destroy the Christian morale by neglect of Christian op- portunity as offered in each commun. ity. The rising generation ehould not become a threat to the future of the church through an absence of church - mindedness. In answer to the ques- tion, should the church halt or re- treat, the poet, Charles Sumner Hoyt, replies— "No! Rather strengthen stakes and lengthen cords, Enlarge thy plans and gifts, 0 thou elect, And to the Kingdom come for such a time 1 The earth with all its fulness is the Lord's. Great things attempt for Him, great things expect, Whose love imperialis, whose power sublime." Contributed by H.V.W. The Seaforth Fall Fair will be held on Thursday and Friday, Sept. 1940. refugees, New Industry To Start Here • Broom Corn Co, Leases Furni- ture Factory Building—To Employ Twenty The Pioneer Broom Corn Co,, 148., 08 London has leased the former Canada Furniture Co, factory On the corner of Jarvis and Market streets, from Mr. E.
