VETERANS HOLD.
MEMORIAL SERVICE
The Veterans' Annual 'Church Par-
ade de was held at St. Paul's Church
last Sunday: There was a record at-
tendance of ;returned soldiers and a
large congregation, every seat in the
.church being occupied. ied. The choir of•.
thirty voices entered the church in
,procession, singing the hymn "Lord
• of heaven and earth and ocean," led
:by a standard bearer carrying the
Flag. The Reverend F. W. Schaff -
:ter in the course of his sermon said
'that all that had ever been written
•or sung about courage was but a pale
,.image of what had taken place on
the stricken fields of Flanders and
France. Napoleon had said that .no
'body of men could lose twenty-five.
Per cent. of their fighting strength
.and not be broken in spirit. Some
'Canadian battalions lost that and
more than double , that and yet had
.•yretained their courage and never lost
'hope. There is a national pride in
-which vain glory and hypocrisy have
-no part, a pride in remembering that
`'in the hour of their country's need
these men gladly gave, all.
'On Fame's eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory guards with solemn round
The bivouac of the dead."
After the sermon the ritual of the
Act of Remembrance was solemnly
•,bbsetrved commencing with the Dead
March in Saul, followed by a prayer
-for the souls of those who had died
-In battle or through sickness in the
-Great War, and the sounding of the
Last Post.
The music throughout the service
was beautifully rendered, the soloists
being Mrs. H. Jobb, Mr. Forbes and
Mr. ` C. Tenapleman, Mr. • Seddon.
sounding the Last Post.
MORE HOUSES NEEDED
Wingham is enjoying a renewal of.
manufacturingactivity, and also gen-
eral
eral business improvementthat re-
calls other days when both furniture
plants 'o elated at full capacity., The
influx of additional help in the fac-
tories has created rather serious eon-
ditions, for 'practically every avail-
able house is occupied, while rooms
and flats.. on the business streets are
at 'a 'premium. Even with this de-
mand on the facilities offered there
remains a decided shortage, which is
particularly felt by'$the married men
who have .come to' town. For the
good of the community and the fut-
ure prosperity of the place, this con-
dition deserves an immediate relief.
It is perhaps too much toexpect
private individuals to take hold of
a project so big as this,''but a little
united effort might furnish a success-
ful remedy. A housing committee or
joint stock company could put up a
number. of houses, suitable to meet
the demand, on a safe basis. This
seems likea fit job for the Business
Men's Association to assume for to
them will come direct returns from
the increase in population.. A few
new houses will mean a lot to Wing -
ham, which is once more enjoying
a season of prosperous expansion,
and will 'tend . to prolong this desir-
able situation. It need hardly be im-
pressed that comfortably housed i eo-
ple make contented citizens.
Public School Pupils'
Armistice Day Service
Posliff, principal ;of Winghain.
Public School performed a worthy
duty on Friday morning, when he
marshalled his pupils, and paraded
them to Monument .Square, holding
a brief but impressive service. With
the pupils drawn up two deep on
Diagonal Road and :on John Street,
each class in charge of their teacher;,
Mr. Posliff spoke briefly onthe his-
toric nature of the affair. Possibly.
some of the children were born af-
ter the close of .the great conflict,
and did not realize the sacrifice re-
quired to make .this part of theworld
still a part of the British Empire,
and to continue to live under the Un-
ion . Jaala. Some half -million of Can-
adian bys went over to France and
Belgium, suffered untold privations
and hardships, and over twenty
thousand of these still remain be-
neath a foreign . soil, having given
their all, for the flag they loved.
To -day, as the most suitable for the
children, they gathered to honor the
memory of thefallen, the names of
the local boys engraved on the mon-
ument.

The November Thank -Offering

program consisted of devotional' ex-

Thanksgiving theme. Mrs. Gowans
and Mrs. Morton offered the prayer.
A vocal solo by Mrs. A. J. Walker,
duet by Mrs. S. Davison and Mrs.
W. H. Willis, and a reading by Mrs.
J. J. Pattison were well received.
The special number was an excel-
lent address given by Mrs. (Rev.)
Lundy of the Nile circuit on our W.
M.S. Work in Canada, showing very
plainly that Canadians have much to
be thankful for and a great work to
do, The offering "with what is still

social hour was enjoyed. Lunch was.
served at small tables, and, we know
ati influence for good will be the re-
