(By Rev. C. 'A.:Mlaleolm, ,M.A., .B!A.)
'According to the best' information
at hand, it was .some timeduring the
year18835 that the early Scottish
settlers of 'Tuckersmtith first met for
a service of warship and praise. In
that year the. Rev., Alexander Mc-
Kenzie was "settled over the Town-
ships of Goderich, Stanley and Taok-
ersini.th," and the Eignrondville con-
gregation extended from Bayfield to
MitchelL For some years they were
an unorganized group, hut they con-
gregated .at more or less regular in-
tervals as occasion. arose, and as the
missionary visited, the district= some-
times worshipping in the ':houses,
some times in the barns of the neigh:,
hors.
They soon 'd'eveloped a "eongrega-
tian consciousness,' , and asked for a
resident' minister,' heard candidates,
and called the Rev'. Williams Graham
in 1844. Mr. Graham was ordained
and inducted in January, 1845. The
first ,Presbyterian Church in Tucker-
ssmith was 'built in Egmondville and
was •dedicated on July 21, 1850.. •
For 99 years. this `nbody..of believ-
ers" ,have been witnessing for .Christ
and gathering together farworship,
praise, prayer and the study of the

ered a strong sermon} on "Gratitude."

Mrs. Robert !McKenzie, was assisted
by De. Smillie, of Hensall, whose solos

In the evening, Rev. George Kersey,
B.A., of Mitchell, brought a most
helpful message from the story of
Elisha. The service was in charge.
of the 'pastor, who was assisted by
Rev. T. A. 'Carmichael, of ,Seaforth,
and Rev. W. A. Bremner 'of Bruce -
field. Mr. James Stewart, of Sea -
forth, was the soloist for the evening
and his messages in ,song added much
to the spieit of the service.
IAmotig the worshippers there were
a great many friends from the neigh-
boring congregations — Brucefield,
'Seaforth United, Seaforth Presbyter-
ian; and McKillop having withdrawn

POPPY DAY
The symbolism of the poppy, the
sorrowful appropriateness of its .blood
red bloom, takes an a deeper•signifi-
cance with each succeeding year. The
Great War is passing almost into leg-
end; a generation is bequeathed the
duty of carrying into the years that
have yet to come the work and the
ideals of those -whom the Poppy com-
memorates.
Canada has adopted the Poppy as
a symbol because of the 60,000 graves
in France and Belgium in which lie
the dead of the preceding generation
because of the 170,000 Canadians to
whom the conflict !brought disable-
ment of one kind or another. The
crosses in the cemeteries of Flanders
are garlanded with Poppies—dolorous
emtblems of a nation's youth consum-
ed in the "wrath -red forge of war."
On Poppy Day this Dominion paus-
es in its normal activities to recall
the sacrifices of its young men, to
pay tribute to their heroism, their
hardihood and the uncomplaining
fortitude with which they bore their
privations and sufferings. At the
same time, Canada strives to liqui-
date in some small measure, an obli-
gation to those disabled men emiploy-
ed in the Vetcraft Workshops of the
country, whose only means of liveli-
hood is the making of these simple
emblems. • '
!The wide ramifications of the great
Canadian' 'Legion, with its tens of
thousands of workers on Peppy bay,
take care of the distribution of these
Poppies throughout 'Canada. There
is thus ensure to their (disable com-
rades in these Veteraft Shops a loyal
performance of a, sorrowful yet .pride-
ful task,
Ml Canadians of every age and de-
gree should wear a symbol on Poppy
Day. tor that is' surely a day of
reeottsecr"ation and of rededication to
the woerk 145n hand, of continuing the
structire.of civilization vwhere the.
