Action of the Warden's Committee
in laying over the .matter of purchas-
ing Port Albert .airport for county pun,
poses was ,,unanimouslyn endorsed by,
Huron County Coiled' on Wednesday.
It was pointed out that,,no concrete
proposition had been presented by
parties or organizations who desire
the acquisition of the airfield, -and it
was felt plans for its use and finano-
ing should be placed before the coun-
cil.
, .
Reeve B. Ws Tuckey, chairman of
the warden's comniiinee, elated that
there had been no organization that
had'ennamitted7a-nything •te the com-
mittee as to why the council Should
acquire this airfield; or,how it should
be purc.hased. It was just a feeling
at Tame that prompted it. If used for
a county fair, attendance would 'be
drawn from a more limited area than
that enjoyed by the international
plowing- Match.
• "We feel that instead o it being a.
paying proposition,' it uld be a
white elephant on the c unty," Mr.
Tuckey declared.

ty for the effort. •

FIRST CHURCH RAS
79th ANNIVERSARY
Rev. David W. Hay, Knox
College, is Speaker At
Presbyterian Church.
First Presbyterian Church, Sea -
forth, observed its 79th anniversary
Sunday when Special services were
held in the morning and evening. Rev.
Williams is minister.
"Some say there are people.,outside
the Church whOare just as good as
those within the °hutch," Rev. David
W. Hay, of Knox College, 'Trento,
the special sneaker, said. "How 'can
this be true?" he continued, "for peo-
ple need the influence Of -Christ Jesus
in their liven" •
Prof: Hay took as his' text let Peter
2:9: - "But.. ye are a chosen genera-.
don, •a royal priesthood, an holy na-
tion, a peculiar people; .that ye should
show forth the pralseg of. Him who
hath called you out of darkness into
his . .marvellous light." . Prof. Hay
spoke of the attempt, in some, quar-
ters, to differentiate between the
Church and Christianity, and stated
his belief that there can be no nitid-
ing line. between 'the two.
. The phrases, in the text, ". ... a.
royal priesthood a peculiar peo-
ple--; . - Prof. Hay .explained,' means
that We are a new steeple;stratisfentn
ed by the 'second birtli.''' "Apart from,
the •Church," what is there in this
world to hope for and to cling to?"
Other empires may rise and fall, he
said, but God's. empire, the Church,
has remained constant since its in-
ception.
"Apart from God, there can be no
peace," Prof. Hay said. ."There can
be no real unity on the face of the
earth until God's message reaches
home to men's hearts."
The choir, under the direction of
Mr. and Mrs. M. R. Rennie:contribut-
ed to the services. In the morning
the anthem, "A Song in the Night,"
was 'sung, solo parts being taken by
Miss M. P. Patterson, Mrs, J. 'A. Munn,
F. E. Willis and D. L. _Reid, and Jasl
T. Scott sang as a solo, "A:Voice in
the Wilderness," In the evening' the
numbers included. a male quartette,
"Hear Us, Lord," hy--Mr. J. T. Scott,
Mr. F. E. Willis; Mr. M. R. Rennie
and Mr. D.' L. Reid, and an anthem,
"Repent Ye," with Mr. James T. Scott
