PLEASANT WEATHER'
CONTINUES THIS WEEK
March, 1945, has made a record
of pleasant spring weather . which
will probably be remembered for a
long time. Violets, daffodils and
other spring" flowers are blooming
this week, and work has started on
the land, in fact some seeding is re-
ported. The garden soil is in great
shape fox planting, but while some 1
planting has -been done, people gen-
erally seem to expect there will be
cold weather to follow.
Mr. George Bell of Seaforth re-
calls that forty-nine years ego, the t
seeding' started on the 17th of
March. He remembers because that
was the year he bought the .store
and postoffice at Lumley, in Usborne
township. The winter came back
that'year, Mr. Bell says, and there
-was good sleighing the first week in
April,
To the Citizens of Seaforth:
The committee In charge - of the
local Blood 'Donor Unit has been
much disappointed by the small
number of residents of the town who
have -presented themselves for the
purpose_ of donating blood.
At present there is nothing known
that is at alt so efficient as a life-
saver to the severely wounded as
blood plasma and the call for, that is
incessant and can only be obtained in
sufficient amounts from the blood of
volunt e•y donors.
We are under a deep sense of obli-
gation to the residents of our vicinity
who have given blood generously, At
the second lest clinic held on Jan. 25,
when the weather and roads were
very bad, there were 92 donors. Of
these 52 were from outside the town,
some of whom walked in, some came
on horseback and some in various
vehicles. From the town where wea-
ther and roads made little difference
there were 40.
At the last clinic held on March 1,
when conditions were favorable, there
were 206 donors, of whom only four-
teen were town residents.
At the time of the next clinic dated
for April 12th, the farmers are likely
to be very busy and it is not to be
expected that they will be able to
respond in the same generous num-
bers. " We are appealing to all, but
particularly to those of the town, to
respond whenever possible, so that
the Unit may function efficiently.
We are indebted to those residents
of. Seaforth who have donated blood
some very regularly, but the commit-
tee
ommittee is of the opinion that the town
has not contributed a fair proportion:
of donors. When hi the future some
of our townspeople find it necessary
to obtain blood transfusions to pre-
serve their own lives, while it is
sincerely hoped that donors may be
found, it. will be a kindness - very
poorly merited.
Kindly get in touch With Mrs.
Patricia Troutbeek, Secretary of. the
-Unit, phone 93, Seaforth, and leave
your name and address: A, carol of in-
structions will be sent you with the
time of ail appointment for the next
clinie on April 12th.
Signed on behalf of the Committee,
F., J. BURROWS, Chairman.

A quiet spring wedding was sol-

when Ruby Edna, second daughter

GordonLyle Hilit second son of Mr.
and Mrs. Lyle Hill of Stanley town-
ship. The bride wore a street length
dress of sky-blue triple sheer with
matching hat. Her only ornament'
was a golds necklace which' was worn
by her grandmother Reid on her
'wedding day, fifty-eight years ago.
Misses Anna and Doris Reid, sisters
of the bride, - were her attendants.
The groom was attended by Mr.
Bruce Keys' of Varna. Afterwards
the bride and groom left on a short

Even nature herself seemed in
sympathy with Him in that dread

sixth hour there was darkness over
the whole land unto the ninth hour."
So come Joseph and Nichodemus

SUNSHINE AFTER SHADOW
nmu"u uunnm 111111 nu m nr nm n„u,,,ro
We 'r'ejoice in the sunshine of
these delightful spring days after
the shadow of winter.
During this Holy Week ear atten-
tion -has again been directed to the
shadows that settled clown upon 3e -
sus ancl His followers it that memor-
able week. Again and again Jesus
had said: ",The Son of Matt must go
up to Jerusalem and be killed and
the third clay rise again."' But they
nnclerstood not that saying wird they
said to Him: "This shall not be unto
thee,. Lord."
However, Ile steadfastly set his
face to"go to Jerusalem. As He
drew near the storm began' to appear
in the determination of the Jews to
kill Him.
He himself felt the storm break-
ing upon Hini as He said "Now is
my soul troubled, and what shall T
Say? Father save me from this hour;
but for this cause came I unto this
hour" - -
In Gethsemane the shadows deep-
en as He takes -up into His holy soul
the sin of the , race—a darkness
blacker than the ' midnight. Deeper
still grow the shadows as He endures
the mockery, insult and ignominy, of
pilate's judgment ball and of the
snob on the was to the cross. It
would seem the darkest hour of all

ocation. Peter said: "I go a fishing." "I
also go with thee," said others. And
could anything be more pathetic than
disappointment to the two walking
to Emmaus: "We trusted that it had
been He which 'should have redeem-
,
edeem, ed Israel."
But very early in 'the morning of
the first day of the week, at the
rising of the sun, devout women
found the sepulchre empty. Little
wonder that when Mary knew He
was alive she ran with haste to tell
His disciples. Peter and John ran to
the sepulchre. The Emmaus follow-
ers hurried back to Jerusalem to tell
the news Ile is alive. For the space
of forty days He appeared among
them dispelling shadows and bring-
ing the sunshine of a new day.
"Now is Christ risen from the
dead," And we can sing "There is
sunshine inmy soul today, Most
glorious and bright."
A great mystery, but not incred-
ible. All life is a mystery. The little
brown bulbs that lay clorrnant in the
earth have burst forth into newness
of life. There was in them the prin-
ciple of life.
So the tomb could not be holden
of Him, because there was in Him
the principle of divine life. When He
arose fionm the death the church too
,arose to'1 ewn505 of life. And the
Christian church today is the sup-
reme evidence that we have not a
dead Christ but a- living Saviour..
We hear His voice calling down the
ages: "I am He that liveth and was
dead and behold I am alive for ever-
more."
Rejoicing then in the sunshine of
this glad new day on this happy.
Easter Sunday conte and worship
and sing His praise.
"Rejoice the Lord is King, Your
Lord and Eine: adore, Mortals give
thanks and sing, And triumph ever
more.""
