Announcement was made on
Wednesday by IIon, Chas. Mac-
Naugltton, M.P.P., that 21/ miles
of road from Seaforth to Wroxet-
er has been designated a Develop-
ment, Road by the Department of
Highways.
Under this plan, the entire cost
of construction will be assumed
by the province and when com-
pleted the road will be turned
over to the county,
The new highway will modern-
ize the old North Road from the
intersection of No. 8 highway at
Seaforth to the intersection of
No. 86 south of Wroxeter.
Pre -engineering Will commence
right away, jointly between the
D.H.O. office, Stratford, and the
Huron County engineer's office.
Preliminary work was done last
year by the county, including pur-
chase of land for widening,
Actual work this year will in-
clude a half mile in Seaforth,
north from the intersection of No.
8 highway, in co-operation with
the town's sewer project; also
five miles of paving, Walton to
Brussels.
The new highway will be wet
corned by adjoining municipali-
ties. Besides giving improved
local service, it is hoped that it
will become a north -south tourist
artery between the border and
northern points.
Last year the Blyth -Dunlop
road was completed as a.. develop-
ment road.

age and death followed a lengthy

Brotherhood Is
Theme of Address
"Let us not abandon faith in
the principle of brotherhood to
advance to a world of peace,"
Herbert A, Mowat of Toronto told
the joint dinner meeting of the
Lions Club and Chamber of Com-
merce on Monday evening.
The world is suffering from- a
lack of brotherhood, he said, The
machine gun represents the den-
ial of brotherhood; the plow is
part of the pattern to save the
world.
In 2,000 years we have advanc-
ed only in the incredible extent
to which whole populations can
be wiped out.
The denial of brotherhood in
human relations is the great des-
troyer, our inability to associate
without physical force is the re-
sult,
The stock piles of nuclear wea-
pons in the world today would fill
a train stretching to the moon
and back 15 times if in TNT.
The hope of the world lies in
the forces of brotherhood which
are mobilizing themselves, The
UN service organizations are the
first step.
The troubles in Africa. and
Asia cone from our thrusting'
ourselves on these peoples, not
they on us. There is a long score
of retribution coming to us for
past exploitation.
Speaking of the racial problem,
he said God gave us race and is
a good God; it is man that is
evil
Tho penalties of denial of bro-
therhood to these people have
been heavy in the past and will
get heavier in the future. We
have got to be cognizant of them
as people, not as race.
You cannot practise brother-
hood in a totalitarian state, Mr.
Mowat pointed out. In South Am-
erica, Africa, Asia there are dic-
tatorships, which have gained
power by violence. 'In Canada
we have freedom, in the church,
the school and the home, which
includes all voluntary organiza-
tions. Canada's increased activity
in world brotherhood is indicated
in the budgets of the Department
of External Affairs, which was
one million dollars in 1938. Last
year it was 97 millions.
Lion President John Langstaff
presided, assisted by C. of C.
president Bruce MacMillan. The
speaker was introduced by A, Y.
McLean and thanked by Rev. H,
Donaldson.
World Day of
Prayer March 9th
The World Day of Prayer,
which will be held on the first
Friday in Lent, has a two -fold
purpose: to form a chain of
prayer around the world and in
gratefulness for many blessings,
to contribute to world-wide needs.
To mention only a few are the
grants given to Christian Litera-
ture Societies in many countries,
more Braille publications provid-
ed for the blind and aid given to
the refugees. Plan to attend the
service on Friday, March 9 and
share in this great work.
The service in Seaforth will be
held at 3 p,m, in Northside United
Church. Mrs, J. C. Britton will be
the guest speaker.
REBEKAH LODGE MEETS
A donation was made to the
Ontario Division, Navy League of
Canada, at Monday night's meet-

cussed regarding the lodge's, 50th
anniversary on May 10, to be held

sembly president, is to—be the

euchre was also discussed.
