96 YEARS OLD, IS STILL
ACTIVE
Thomas Sage, Esteemed Wroxeter
Man, Has Never Had to Go
tei a Doctor
Wroxeter, June iz.=Thomas Sage,
'in his 96th year, hale and hearty and •
smart as some men in their middle
age, resides in Wroxeter. When ask-
ed his age he said old enough to
vote. Mr. Sage tells of coming to
Bluevale in '66. He resided these two
years and then moved to Wroxeter
and has resided .'here ever since. He
also owned the first team of horses
in Bluevale and in those days a good.
horse could be bought for Sioo.
Goods were hauled from Clinton and
Seaforth to Wroxeter in those days
as no railroads were in this neigh-
borhood then.
Mr. Sage raised .a family of wine,
and tells the story he has never been
to 'a doctor. He also tells of hte first
binder, some 54 years ago, •tend how
the people walked miles to see it
work.
- Eggs were then four cents per doz-
en. Also he didn't forget to recall
that whiskey sold at 25 cents a pail.
Mr. Sage remembers one man who
took $6o for a vote.
Last week was a red-letter week,
for Mr. Sage when he motored to
Stratford and visited' his nephew.
INTERESTING ADDRESS BY
REV. ARMSTRONG
"The Responsibility of Youth" was
the subject of a very .interesting ad-
dress recenity delivered in Wroxeter
United church, by Rev. D. A.. Arm-
strong, as follows:
'
Many things might b e said, but at
least three things must. be said.
The hope of the world is in you
world's
• people. You are the w d's
only hope. The leadership of the
church and of the world is in your
hands. •
The young leaders of Europe are
dead. Enough European young men
fell in the great tear to fill a trench
from Troonto to Mexico, if buried
shoulder to shoulder! .And 'enough
o re were maimed to reach from
New York to San Francisca, if they.
stood with arms on each .'other's'
shoulders! These,. are the lads who
would have been the great scientists,
poets, inventors;and other leaders,
and there is no response from her
own young people, and men and old
women bear theburdens of Europe
tc'lay.
The youth of Canada, the youth of
the world, inherit the chances of the.
fallen. The world looks to the youth
of today to be its great future lead-
ers, It cannot be met if the youth
of the world are trifling and fiddling
with their God-given chance. The op-
portunities' of the ages are now with
young people.- Never have they had
such opportunities to become perfect-
ly finished in academe training. High
schools and colleges were never so
numerous, so well equipped, so
to accommodate young men and wo-
The provisions made .for education
in the past 6o years in Canada alone
reveal that young people are the sub-
ject of more serious thought and the
recipients of a more sacrificial giv-
ing than any other class . Never were
the forces of good and evil More in-
sistent and appealing in their efforts
to. win young life than at the pres-
ent.
The greatest achievements of • the
ages have been won by the young
,people. Alexander conquered the
known world when thirty. Napoleon
had inarched his armies across the
Alps and placed Italy at his feet
when 26. Raphael, the greatest of
painters, died at the age of 37. Keats
died when 26. Jesus of Nazareth died
at 33.
The young people of today face
the greatest world in history. They
have loads of responsibility upon
them such as neither we nor>our fa-
thers knew. They work from a high-
er place of enlightenment, and must
direct a . machinery of life more pow-
erful than any other generation. The
y
been
concealed yesterday Y have
marshalled today and will be harn-
essed to world tasks tomorrow. In-
vention is making him lord of all he
surveys.. Wealth in unprecedented
volume is putting immeasurably, al-
lurements before men and placing
powers in men's hands of which we,
had never dreamed.
The material appliances of life are
so attractive and so seductive that
we are in danger of being diverted
from eternal truths to temporal
trusts. The yonug people of our
homes and churches have conte to
the ' kingdom at this time to admin-
ister these brilliant ant -Prodigal
material trusts. No such trust has
ever ben enlaced, in the hands of any
generation of young people. Great
indeed has been the progress of the.
past 6o years. The next 6o are des-
tined
estined to be still greater.
The Confederation fathers develop-
ed phenomenal" material machinery,
But we have not proven our ability
for its moral administration. Huge
factories have often submerged hu-
manities. Great democracies have
been cursed by political corruptions,'
infamous dishonesties, brutal briber-
ies, and unbelievable immoralities in.
great corporations, civic and commer-
cial.
The inventive genius of the past.
6o years have plundered the earth,
sky and sea, and the regions under
the earth.
But we recently went through a
veritable inferno because these inven-
tions were converted into agencies
for the wholesale slaughter of man-
kind and destructive of world pro-
phecies. Another such war and civil-
ization would crumble to ruin. The
youth of tomorrow must face hte
task of reconstructing a broken
world. They .must reclaim the high
spiritual motives, enthrone new mor-
als, ideals, and enforce new moral
standards. They must unfold God's
moral program and 'purpose of the
world. Civilization has come a long.
way from the jungle, but a great dis-
tance remains to be traversed before
reaching the ideals of Jesus.
You are the men and women to
lead in this journey while you join
in inseparable wedlock a spiritual,
Christianity to an- enlightened con-
science the task of the world's recon
struction on Christian lines. The
greatest task today for older Chris-
tians is the moral and . religious
training of these young, people.
The attitude of the educated young
people towards the claims of Jesus is
of supreme importance. There ,is' a
grave and general decline of religious
training in the home for which we
have provided no adequate substitute.
The Roman church is thought most
careful in caring for its own young
people, but a careful survey reveals
that of the nine nrmillion.Catluo Catholic
youths in America ender 25 years of
age, more han 78 per cen. are un -
reached religiously by any educaion-
al system under their control. There
are more than x,600,000 Jewish chil-
dren in America under 25. years of
age, of which more than 95 per cent.
ane not under training in Jewish
schools. Though there are more than

i4,000,000 Protestant children enrolled
in the ; Sunday schools of 'America;
more than 66 per cent. of the Prot-
estant youths of America are unen-
rolled in any Protestant school.
These facts explain in part the al-
arming wake of juvenile crime noiv
challenging the public mind. There
cannot be ethical living where there
has been no ethical teaching, ethical
training, and ethical restraint. Mor-
al rectitude is as important as men-
ial culture, and personal religion' 'is
the only safeguard of moral rectitude.
Young people, this is the world we
entrust toyour care. Many of the
schemes and plans of our Confedera-
tion leaders have proved unworkable,
many of their hopes have not been
realized, Now, Canadians, world pol-
icies must be framed .to meet world
needs. Mere provincial policies and
politicians must give way to new and
broader policies . And to leaders of
an international mind who will face
worldinterest and inaugurate policies
for the good of mankind. They must
think by a world map. They must.
speak in world terms, -and live by ii
world program.
