Rev. Capt. W. L. L. Lawrence
Most Worshipful Brother Rev.
Capt, W. L. L. Lawrence, of Toronto,
Past Grand Master, Ontario West,
Past Deputy Chaplain of ttw World,
gave a stirring address. He urged
his audience to attend some church
regularly.
"We must live up to our pledge
to do the will of the Almighty,” he
said. "Let to -morrow be a day of
loyalty and dedication. Loyalty to
God and loyalty to our King. Thank
God for our King who is a man who
bows the knee to worship God;
thank God for our gracious Queen
and the beloved Christian children,
the princesses. Think what would
happen if we had a
pP d monarch of
lower character. Thank God for the
commonwealth of nations which
stands fotu•-square for civic and re-
ligius liberty,"
If we don't stand solidly together,
Rev. Captain Lawrence said. Hitler -
ism will conte to Canada. Then you
will not choose how you live or how
you'll worship. You'll be a slave.
There is only one philosophy of life
in Naziism, that the only people fit to
live on this earth are Germans, and
all others their slaves.
The speaker had been told there is
a spirit of brotherhood amongst all
the religions of this district and he
was glad to hear it, because brother-
itood is the very essence of the Or-
ange Order.
He referred to the necessity of re-
gular worship. "If every member of
the L. 0.L. would be found in a
place of worship fifty-two Sundays
of the year. Oraflgeisnl would be-
come a tremendous power for good
in this country,' he said.
"Of what value is it to fight for a
Bible, if you never read it?" he ask-
ed. "Or to cry for civic liberties. if
you never bother to mark a ballot?"
Democracy as we have it in this
country is worth fighting for. he
said. It was his privilege as a citizen
of a democracy to say every man
should enlist; that the government
should give leadership. The speaker
was convinced conscription is the
only way. "Why should one man vol.
unteer, and not another man?" he
asked. "We all have the same coin'
mon responsibility," A young men, an
Only son, supporting his mother, had
come to him for advice about vol-
unteering the other' day; he had ask-
ed should he volunteer although his
neighbor had several sons who had
not enlisted and are profiting by the
war.
Rev. Capt. Lawrence referred to
the, beautiful setting in which the
gathering was being held in Victoria
Park, with its war memorial. "I love
this land and our flag," he said. "I
don't care how natty Rags you fly in,
this vottttiry- so long ate the British
flag le at the top."
lit closing. the speaker appealed
for unity in Cilia country, saying
unity was something that should
work both ways.
Prof. W. Brenton Kerr
Prot. W. Brenton Kerr, County
Master of Welland. returning to his
home town front Buffalo, N.Y..
where he is professor of history in
Buffalo University, gave a splendid
address, the first part of which was
an historical review of the Orange
Order. Prof. Kerr said:
"I should like to say in the first
place how happy I ant to be here in
my home town and among the peo-
ple of Huron and Perth, who are
friends and neighbors of my relat-
ives and myself. A man naturally
prefers the country and the folk
among whom he has spent his child-
hood and youth: and I have been
fortunate in being able to return to
Seaforth fpr a part of almost every
summer since that time. and to re-
new those aequaintanceships and
friendships. So I am happy indeed
that the L. 0, L. of Seaforth has ask-
ed me to be one of their speakers on
this occasion.

Rev. Capt. W. L. L. Lawrence
Most Worshipful Brother Rev.
Capt, W. L. L. Lawrence, of Toronto,
Past Grand Master, Ontario West,
Past Deputy Chaplain of ttw World,
gave a stirring address. He urged
his audience to attend some church
regularly.
"We must live up to our pledge
to do the will of the Almighty,” he
said. "Let to -morrow be a day of
loyalty and dedication. Loyalty to
God and loyalty to our King. Thank
God for our King who is a man who
bows the knee to worship God;
thank God for our gracious Queen
and the beloved Christian children,
the princesses. Think what would
happen if we had a
pP d monarch of
lower character. Thank God for the
commonwealth of nations which
stands fotu•-square for civic and re-
ligius liberty,"
If we don't stand solidly together,
Rev. Captain Lawrence said. Hitler -
ism will conte to Canada. Then you
will not choose how you live or how
you'll worship. You'll be a slave.
There is only one philosophy of life
in Naziism, that the only people fit to
live on this earth are Germans, and
all others their slaves.
The speaker had been told there is
a spirit of brotherhood amongst all
the religions of this district and he
was glad to hear it, because brother-
itood is the very essence of the Or-
ange Order.
He referred to the necessity of re-
gular worship. "If every member of
the L. 0.L. would be found in a
place of worship fifty-two Sundays
of the year. Oraflgeisnl would be-
come a tremendous power for good
in this country,' he said.
"Of what value is it to fight for a
Bible, if you never read it?" he ask-
ed. "Or to cry for civic liberties. if
you never bother to mark a ballot?"
Democracy as we have it in this
country is worth fighting for. he
said. It was his privilege as a citizen
of a democracy to say every man
should enlist; that the government
should give leadership. The speaker
was convinced conscription is the
only way. "Why should one man vol.
unteer, and not another man?" he
asked. "We all have the same coin'
mon responsibility," A young men, an
Only son, supporting his mother, had
come to him for advice about vol-
unteering the other' day; he had ask-
ed should he volunteer although his
neighbor had several sons who had
not enlisted and are profiting by the
war.
Rev. Capt. Lawrence referred to
the, beautiful setting in which the
gathering was being held in Victoria
Park, with its war memorial. "I love
this land and our flag," he said. "I
don't care how natty Rags you fly in,
this vottttiry- so long ate the British
flag le at the top."
lit closing. the speaker appealed
for unity in Cilia country, saying
unity was something that should
work both ways.
Prof. W. Brenton Kerr
Prot. W. Brenton Kerr, County
Master of Welland. returning to his
home town front Buffalo, N.Y..
where he is professor of history in
Buffalo University, gave a splendid
address, the first part of which was
an historical review of the Orange
Order. Prof. Kerr said:
"I should like to say in the first
place how happy I ant to be here in
my home town and among the peo-
ple of Huron and Perth, who are
friends and neighbors of my relat-
ives and myself. A man naturally
prefers the country and the folk
among whom he has spent his child-
hood and youth: and I have been
fortunate in being able to return to
Seaforth fpr a part of almost every
summer since that time. and to re-
new those aequaintanceships and
friendships. So I am happy indeed
that the L. 0, L. of Seaforth has ask-
ed me to be one of their speakers on
this occasion.
