INTERESTING TALK
A successful tea was held at the
rectory on Thursday afternoon, when
a shower was held by the ladies of
St. Stephens Congregation for the
Indian girl of St. Paul's School, at
Cordston, Alberta, for which 'They
are responsible. Almost a full ward-
robe of clothing was received.
A letter pretraining to Missionary
work- was read during the afternoon.
The rector, Rev. R. S. Johns gave
a very interesting address taken
from the last three verses of the
Gospel of St. Matthew, and -entitled
'The Four Alls."
The first , 'All" — Namely — All
power is given unto me in Heaven
and Earth." If one sumecl up the
Life ,of Our Blessed Lord in our day,
once would perhaps think of Him be-
ing, Kind, 'Good, Righteous, and self-
sacrificing, but to a cotntemporary
He was a than of authority so that
even the common people said. "He
spealees as one having authority and
not as the Scribes." Morover we
recognize that this authority is still
recognized in the world. In His word
and His teaching.
The second "All" concerns, "Go
Ye therefore and teach all Nations."
The gospel of our Blessed Lord is
therefore, world wide. Rev. Jones
used as an illustration, Patricia
Kendall's hook, "Come with me to
India." concerning a missionary's
visit to the tetnple of Kali and the
scene witnessed there.
HORSE CAUSES
DAMAGE TO CAR
An accident which might have pro-
ven more serious occurred Monday
evening about 6.30 p.m., a mile south
of Gorrie, opposite the farm of M.
Nash, when a car driven by Geo. S.
Dawson, Gorrie, who was returning
from Stratford, ran into a horse, The
car was considerably damaged, but
was able to bring passengers home.
The occupants of the car were Mrs.
Geo. Dawson, Mrs. Knowlson, Miss
Nora Naylor and Reggie Taylor, all
Gorrie residents. The animal which
had wandered from the barnyard of
its owner, M. Nash, was pasturing
on the roadside and ran in front of
the car. It was instantly killed. We
are glad to report that the occupants
and driver escaped with a few minor
cuts from glass of the windshield.
