Harvey Leslie Honoree"
At Board Meeting of

Harvey Leslie, manager of the
Hibbert Co-operative Creamery
from 1934 until this year, and nova
owner of the Seaforth Creamery
was presented with a recliner roele
ing chair in appreciation of his se
vices by the Co-operative's dirre
tors last Saturday evening.The.
presentation took place in the
board room of the creamery at th

Anniversary Services
Largely Attended
The 91st anniversary services
were observed last Sunday at St.
Thomas' Church, when the church
was well filled, both morning and
evening. The altar looked beauti-
ful ,banked with white peonies and
standards of red and white Peat/ -
les and ,pyrheirium daisies graced
the choir stalls, .,
Baskets of flowers were placed
on all the memorials. • Special mus-
ic by the choir included an an-
them, "The Lord is My Shepherd"
and a solo by Mrs. J. Brown Hig-
gins, "How Lovely Are Thy Dwele
lings." In the evening Mrs. Hig-
gins sang the well-known solo,
"My Task."
In the morning the special speak-
er was the Assistant Bishop of
Huron, Rt. Rev. W, T. Hallam, D.D.,
former Bishop of Saskatoon. Tak-
ing as his text the 21st verse of
Ephesians 3, "Unto him be the
glory in the church and in Jesus
Christ unto all generations for ev-
er and eve- " Bishop Hallam show-
ed how. -the many religions of the
world, Buddhism, Brahminism, Mo-
hammedanism, all brought their
adherents to a point but left them
with nothigg to hold on to which
would
save them comfort in thec
futur , In Christianity, God left us
the p omise that He would give us
mforter who would abide with
and be our guide. If people
could onlyrealize that the simple
following of Christ and the prac-
tice of the principles laid down
by Him would result in a happy,
free and contented life with the
hope of a fuller life beyond, what
a difference it would make in the
world.
In the evening the special speak-
er was F/Lt. Leslie Harding, the
Protestant Padre from the Radar
School, Clinton. The text chosen
by him was taken from the 18th
chapter of Genesis, verse 4: "Let
a little water be fetched and wash
your feet and rest yourself under
the tree." The speaker pointed out
if more would only avail them-
selves of the ministry of the
church and rely upon the grace of
God to sustain and support them,
attending church and waiting still
upon God to understand what He
wishes them to do. The hustle and
bustle of the world crowds out the
still small voice and so people be-
come 'bewildered and upset. The
church is the haven to which all
should be able and feel able to
come to receive strength and re-
freshment along the road to life.
Both services were appreciated
by all attending. The special of-
fertory will be devoted to the re-
storation fund of the parish.

Into Society.
The Rev. D. L. Egan, C.S.R., St.
Alphonsus Seminary, Woodstock,
in addressing the district annual
Holy Name rally held in St. James'
Church, Seaforth, Sunday after-
noon, spoke of the duties of the
Holy Name men.
Father Egan traced ,briefly the
origin of the society and in relat-
ing its purposes and aim, cited the
words of Pope Pius IV: "To beget
due love and reverence for Christ
as God, and for the Holy Names
of God and Jesus Christ, to sup-
press all blasphemy, perjury, un-
lawful oaths, swearing and .all im-
proper language in your own life
and as far as possible to prevent
these vices in the lives of others."
The speaker went on to say that
"this is the purpose of the rally;
in other words, to manifest in pub-
lic manner your belief in the
ahurch'a teachings that Christ is
truly God, and to offer Him pub-
lic reverence and to make public
reparation for the frequent abuse
of His Holy Name." Father Egan
told the members that they could
accomplish the aim and purpose
of the society by example, word
and prayer.
Over 500 members beaded by the
Seaforth Highlanders Band, par-
aded from Victoria Park to the
church, where the Seaforth mem-
bers formed a guard of honor, al-

rying individual parish Holy Name
