THE HURON EXPOSITOR
SEAFORTH, Friday, January 5, 1923
SUNDAY AFTERNOON
By Isabel Hamilton, Goderich, Ont.
Ye who the name of Jesus bear,
His sacred steps pursue;
And let that mind which was in Him
Be also found in you.
His greatness He for us abased,
For us his Glory veiled;
In human likeness dwelt on earth,
His majesty concealed.
Nor only as a man appears,
But stoops a servant low;
Submits to death. nay, bears the cross
In all its shame and woe.
Fence God this generous love to men,
With honors just hath crowned,
And raised the name of .!esus far
Above all names renowned.
(Scottish Paraphrase).
Prayer
Almighty Cod, give us grace that
we may cast away the works of dark-
ness, and put upon us the armour of
light, now in the time of this mortal
life, in which Thy Son Jesus Christ
came to visit us in great humility;
that in the last day, when he shall
come again in His glorious Majesty
to judge both the quick and dead, we
may rise to the life immortal
through Him who liveth and reign-
eth with Thee and the Holy Ghost,
now and ever. Amen.
(The Collect).

SUNDAY SCHOOL L ESSON FOR
JAN. 14th, 1923
Jesus Teaching Humility.
Lesson Passage—Luke 14 : 7-14
Golden Text 1, Peter 5:5.
Our Lord Jesus here sets us an ex-
ample of profitable edifying discourse
at our tables, when we are in com-
pany with our friends. We find that
when he had none but his disciples,
who were his own family, with him
at the ,table his conversation with
them was good, and intended for
their edification; and not only so, but
when he was in company with stran-
gers, and even with enemies that
watched him, he took occasion to re-
prove what he saw amisa..in them and
to instruct •them: Following his ex-
ample we. must not only not allow
any corrupt communication at err
tables, but we :post go beyond coin-'
mon harmless talk and learn to spir-
itualize common things.
Our Lord Jesus was among • per.:
sons of quality—Lawyers and Phari-
sees (verse 3) yet he was no respeet-
er df persons for he..took occasion to
reprove the greets for striving to get
the beat places at the table and so
gives a lesson in humility.
In Chapter XI, verse. 43, he had
made a charge to the Pharisees in
general for this very thing—"Woe
unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the
uppermost seats in the synagogues,
and greetings in the markets." In
verse'7 he brings home the charge to
particular persons. We thus see
how even in the common actions of
life; Christ's eye is upon us. And he
marks what we do, not only in our
religious assemblies, but at our ta-
Nes,. and makes remarks upon it.
L Verses S-11.
Here Jesus. observed how those
who were thus aspiring often expos-
ed themselves, and were:made a-
shamed; whereas those ho were
modest and seated themselves in the
lowest seats, often gained respect by
it. It ought to check our high
thoughts of ourselves, to think how
''many there are that are more hon-
orable than we, not only in respect
of wordly dignities, but of personal
merits and accr$mplishments. In-
stead of being proud that so many
give place to us, it should be hum-
bling to us, that there are so many
that we must give place to. The
master orthe feast will see that each
guest gets his right
place and if he
'sweats one thus—"Give this man
place" that one will be disgraced be-
fore all the company. Those who,
when they come in, content them-
selves with the lowest seats, are
likely to be preferred: (verse 10).
The way to rise high is to begin low
and this recommends a man to those
aiborit Han`; '"Thou shalt, have honor
and, respect before those that -sit
With thee." Christ is this discourse
refei'a to tbat'advice of Solomon in
L'xoy;;, 2i 04, , "and not in the
Piece ' Of St
great men, for better it is
that 'it be said nnto thee, Come up
hither, than that thou shonidest be
Put lower.". In verse 11 Christ ap-
1,riies this generally and would have
s all learn not to mind high things'

Lesson Passage Mark 10:1,3-16.
Extracts from a letter to the Hon -
an Messenger by Mrs. Donald Mac-
Gillivrary, Shanghai, China:
"I want you and our readers to
know something about the children's
books we are preparing. 1 am sure
you will be glad to know that our
magazine, "Happy Childhood" is
flourishing. We are now printing
6,100 copies per month. Of course
it ought to be 60,000 or more. Bat
it is a Christian magazine and this is
a non-Christian country. The mas-
ses of the people are very poor and
we have to charge for the maga-
zine. Sometimes I dread .tp see the
printing bills. When I am prepar-
ing the magazines I forget all about
the printing bill, and I have pictures
made just as I want and then when
the printing bill comes in there in
cold black ink is the cost of the pic-
tures added to that bill. But friends
in Canada and United States are
very good and gifts of money have
made these things possible. Then
we are trying to get out some child-
ren's
ren's books and selling them at cost.
This, too, has been made possible by
gifts from friends and by a donation
from the Anna Fletcher Memorial
Fund. In our children's series we
have "David Livingstone," "Helen
Keller," "Angel's Christmas," "MY
Story Book " "Stories for Children"
and "Jesus, My Saviour."
Now I would like to ask our read-
ers to think much, to pray much, to
plan largely for the children of
China, of India and of Canada.
Yours sincerely,
L. A, MacGILLIVRAY.

Young People's Club.—The Young
People's Club of St. Andrew's church,
liippen, enjoyed one of its best meet -
on Friday night of Christmas
week. The young men had done the
cntertair)nt on the night previous
and now the young ladies had their
eher,ce, and they did their part in
royal style. A goodly company gath-
ered in the afternoon and decorated
the Sunday school with red stream-
ers, evergreen and poinsettias, and it
looked like a fairyland, indeed. The
programme was novel and unique—
glees, solos, readings, violin ,selec-
tions. The art contest and shadow
pictures were pleasing and most en-
tertaining to young, and old. The
special guests of the evening were
the "Mothers," and they have felt
proud of their daughters. Later all
repaired to the basement and sat
down to a splendid menu served in
good style by the same young ladies.
The young men moved a hearty vote
of thanks to the young ladies,tender-
ing to them the palm of victory in
the contest. It is the duty of every
church to provide wholesome enter-
tainments. for its young people and
St. Andrew's, of Kippen, is doing
nobly.

Letter of Appreciation,—Mr. Al-
fred Taylor, of our village, who so
ably superintended the paying of our
Main Street as far as the laying of
the cement is concerned, was
,agree-
ably surprised and pleased by receiv-
ing the following letter, of address,
which speaks as to the, satisfaction
he gave: "Mr. Alfred Taylor, Hen-
sall, Ont. Dear Sir.—We, the under-
signed members of the municipal
council' of the Corporation of Hensel]
for the year 1922, wish to express
our appreciation and thanks for the
service rendered the municipality by
your impartial overseeing of the con-
struction of concrete road, and to
your vigilant constant supervision.
The municipality has a concrete road
tar above any in the County of Huron
because you saw that proper amount
of cement and proper depth of con-
crete was equal over the whole sys-
tem. We are presenting you with
this testimonal in appreciation of your
public service faithfully performed,
together with enclosed cheque, also
thanks per#onally of the undersign_
cd. Alex. Smith, Reeve; Robert Hig-
gins, George Hudson, J. W. Ortwein,
R. Bonthron."
Joynt Bonthron,—On Friday af-
terncon and evening Miss Florence
Bonthron held a Trousseau tea for
some thirty of her friends when a
yery pleasant social time was spent,
and as a sequel to this we copy the
following which appeared in the Lon-
don, Free Press of the 3rd: A quiet
but pretty wedding took place at St.
Andrew's Manse, Queens Ave., on
Ncw Year's day when Rev. Dr. D. C.
McGregor united in marriage Flor-
ence E„ youngest daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. R. Bonthron, of Hensall, and
Thomas Cleveland Joynt, also' of
Hensall. The bride, who was unat-
tended, looked charming in a French
frock of gold chiffon velvet with
touches of gold lace and. fur and.i
wore the groom's gift, a rope of
pearls. Only immediate relatives•and
friends of the bride and groom were
tpresent for 'the ceremony which was
followed by a wedding dinner at the
Cafe De Luxe and later Mr, and Mrs.
Joynt' left for Detroit and points
west, the bride travelling in a black
Pussy Willow canton gown with
touches of purple and bonfire red,
Hudson seal coat with sable trim-
mings, and hat of black satin and
silver. On their return from their
wedding journey Mr. and Mrs. Joynt
will live in Hensel!: The many rela-
tives and friends of the happy couple
will unite in wishing them long con-
tinued happiness.
Christmas Entertainment,—The an.
nual Christmas Sabbath School en-
tertainment of Carmel Presbyterian
church was held in the Town Hall on
Thursday evening of last week, when
the spacious 'hall was filled to capac-
ity and a splendid literary and musi-
cal programme was carried out by
the children principally, with a few
more of the advanced members of the
school and church taking part. The
programme, which was a long and
varied one, was enjoyed from start
to finish and we, only regret that
space will not permit of us giving a
more extended report. Suffice to say
all taking part did so with much
credit to themselves and teachers.
But we may here be permitted to
mention a very special part of the
programme, namely, the comedy in
two
acts styled, d a
The
Two Dic
and those taking part in same,
name-
ly William ,Soldan, W. E. Brown,
Clarence Munn, Miss Ola Cook, Miss
Gertrude Hoggarth, Miss Elsie Sol-
