Dear Mr. Brook: Some weeks
ago we listened with regret to
your announcement of your inten-
tion to move to Bluevale. Although
deep in our hearts- we had a feel-
ing that eventually this misfortune
would be ours, we had come to
know you and think of you as our
very own.. This past Sunday, how-
ever, has brought us to fully re-
alize that you are leaving us for
other fields of work. Before you
go, we of Chiselhurst and Hensall
congregations, would. like W ex-
press our sincere appreciation for
ache work you have done here.
Throughout your years with us you
have always been a willing helper
in any of .our undertakings, not
only in church Work alone, but the
community actieitiesas well. We
are especially appreciative of your
messages from week to week and
on other occasions. They have all
been an inspiration in our lives.
Your home visits, too, have been
of great value to us in bringing
.11 comradeship and blessings. You
have been a faithful leader and
have Worked shoulder to shoulder
in. all church activities. Some we
remember especially that you have
taken part in are: Taught ethe
Bible Class at Chiselhurst, led the
Young People's Society, helped
with the Wohelo Mese, acted as
Superintendent of the Sunday
School when' necessafy, assisted in
the choir end helped in canvassing
for fund e for church improve-
ments. Even your hobbies have
been a benefit to us.
You have also given freely of
your time for worthwhile activi-
ties outside the church—as chair-
man of the Red Cross Societe, dur-
ing the war, and as a member of
the village Library Board. We are
very thankful for all tthis help and
guidance.
Now at this time of parting, may
We assure you that -you, have won
many lasting friendsbiPs. We know
that you will make many' new
friends in your new field of en-
deavour, but we sincerely hope
that you will always remember the
fellowship that we have had to-
gether.
-We feel that we would like to
allow you our gratitude in a ma-
terial way, so would ask ybu to
accept this gift With our best
Wishes to yeu and Mn. Brook for
your future •happiness.—Signed on
behalf of the Chieelhurst and Hen -
get' Congregation•a.

First Church Joins
in Anniversary
Celebrations
More than 1500 people assembled
in Knox Presbyterian Church, God-
erich, east -Sunday, evening in a
service of witness commemorating
the 75th anniversary of the Pres-
byterian Church in Canada. The
service was under the direction of
the HuronsMaitland Presbytery,
a n d represented Presbyterian
Churches in all parts of Huron
County.
Rev. Alexander Nimmo, of Wing -
ham, Moderator of Presbytery, was
in charge of the service and was
assisted by Rev. R. G. MacMillan,
Moderator of Session, Goderich,
and Very Rev. C. H. McDonald,
former moderator of the general
assembly.
A choir composed of 200 voices
led in the service of praise, direct-
ed by W. H. Bishop, organist and
choir director of Knox Church, as-
sisted by Harold Victor Pym, of
Wingham, and I. B. Jamieson, of
Seaforth. "Holy Art Thou" was
sung as an anthem by the massed
choirs, and a quartette composed
of M..R. Rennie, F. E. Willis, Jas.
T. Scott of Seaforbh, and Ralph
Henderson, Goderich, sang "While
the Years Are Rolling By."
The ohoir and clergy gathered
outside and ' entered the church
singing "The Church's One Foun-
dation," and were joined in sing-
ing by the congregation.

ald, of Bluevale, and the pastoral
prayer be Rev. R. G. MacMillan.
The congregation was led in the
Act of Re -dedication by Rev. A.
Nimmee followed by the Apostle's
Creed. •
Rev. Prof. David W. Hay, of
Knox College, Toronto, gave an
inspiring sermon on "The Glory of
God."
All enduring power comes from
God. There never was a time when
Man was -more powerful than now,
nor when humankind stood in more
darrger than today. Dr. Hay spoke
of the theology of the Presbyter-
ian Church which exemplifies the
glory, majesty and sovereignty of
God and faith in Jesus Christ,
All ministers of the church are
equal in rank because emery min-
ister is a bishop as interpreted in
the New Testament, a bishop is
one who has charge of the word
and bhe sacraments for ,a particu-
lar congregation. Above this there
is no higher office in the church.
"For this truth our fathers- shed
their blood." When King George
is in Scotland he worshipa in a
Presbyterian Church, but not as
head of the church ,but as a mem-
ber.
The whole world was made for
the glory of God. -Man was made
for that glory but when be breaks
loe.se he is like a beautiful chan-
delier, the prisms, of which reflect
lieht and beauty. When it is. 'brok-
eft the source of Its power and
light are cut off"We proclaim
the coming of Jesus Cbrist that He
might lift us up to the source of
His light and power, and lite be -
ging for us again.
The service was concluded With
the benediction by Very Rey. C.
it MacDonald, D.D.

for the neceeseary repairs to We -
buildings that had- been foreaulat- eee
ed daring the academic year
Work to be carried out atatee
Seaforth Distriat High School Mete,
eludes redecorating the Perth hglie
home economics room and teach-
ers' room. New oak doors will re-
place the preeent 'doors at the
south entrance. A drain will ye
built around the entire school to
provide better drainage, and a new
sidewalk will be constructed at
the soubh side of the school.
According to Mr. T. P. Plum- e,
steel, principal, a preliminary
check of the number of pupils for es'
next year reveals that there is a se.
possible 95 for Grade IX. Should e •
this number actually enroll in the
fall, it will necessitate another
classroom with another teacher.
There will be two changes in the
teaching staff next year. Miss
Margaret Stewart, Ailsa Craig, will
replace Mrs. J. C. Stevens, home
iseoriomics teacher. Miss Stewart
graduated from 0.C.,E. this year.
Miss Therese Gallivan, who has
taught in the Cardinal continua-
tion school for.the past two years,
will replace Miss Maris Smith. The
other teachers will include: L. P.
Plunisteel, principal; J. L. Slat-
tery, F. A. Dobson, J. E. Silcox
and Misses R. Fennell and J. Mc-
Intyre.
There will be a few changes in
the Public School. These will be
of 'a temporary nature only- and
will be done at a very minimum
cost. The hoard is in the process
of gathering costs, plans, etc., for
a new building, and with this in
mind, does not wish to spend any
more than what is absolutely nec-
essary. A. new classroom is being
created in the present teachers'
room to take care of increased en-
rollment. An office will be made
in the lower hall, next to the prin-
cipal's room, and on the recom-
mendation of tees County Health
Unit certain changes will be made
to the lighting.
The changes in the teaching staff
include the engaging of Jas. Sims,
as assistant principal, to replace
Raymon Mulford, who has resign-
ed, and Miss Winnie Savauge as
an additional teacher. Other mem-
bers of the staff include Miss S. I.
McLean, Mrs. H. Mason, Miss E.
Elder, Mrs. J. Elli, 'Miss M. E.
Turnbull and D. N. Eastman,eprin-
cipal.
