Hensall Church Has Harvest Services Harvest Home services were ob- served in St. Paul's Anglican Church Sunday evening, Sept. 30, at 7:30 p.m. The church was beau- tifully decorated with gladioli in pastel shades, sheafs of wheat, fruit and vegetables. Mrs. R. H. Middleton was at the organ con- sole. Rev. C. L. Langford, minister, was in charge and introduced the guest minister, Rev. J. H. Webb, of Bayfield, who based his thoughts from the theme, "The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof." In his remarks the speaker said: "To what extent do we recognize this today? We are not so inclined to recognize God's ownership of all things. We only hold these things as stewards for Him. We shall give as God hath prospered us; where there is love we do not com- plain of the cost. The second re- sponsibility is to claim the world for God," the speaker continued. "Think what God could do today if everyone were on fire for the King- donof God as the early Christians were. What are we doing to claim tlbe world for God?" He also refer- red to the beautiful harvest in this area. Miss Maureen Evans, guest soloist, in lovely voice sang, "Come Ye Thankful People, Come." Holy Communion will be observed in this church next Sunday morning at 10 a.m. Decorating committee for the Harvest Home services were Mrs. R. H. Middleton, Mrs. W. O. Goodwin and Mrs. T. Laven- der. The young people had had their first quarrel, and all evening neith- er one of them had said a word. Finally the husband decided to give in. "Please speak to me, dear," he said. "I'll admit that I was wrong and you were right." "It won't do you any good," re- plied the bride tearfully. "I've changed my mind." - ANDY CALDER Sole Agent for TONE CLEANERS AND DYERS • Laundry Service • Hat Blocking • Rug Shampooing Modern Cold Fur Storage WILL PICK UP EVERY DAY Thursday pickups delivered Monday Monday pickups delivered Thursday PHONE 230 Progressive Conservative Nomination HURON RIDING will be held in Hensall Town Hall Wednesday, October 10th, 8 p.m.' Rev.

Show Waist Successful The Huron County Black and White Day, held recently, brought out a large, good quality show with. 132 head shown by 27 exhibitors. The judge was Harry Shore, Glen- worth. Championships were well divided with no leas than six breeders, sharing in the awards. Ross Mare shall, Kirkton, bad the Senior and Grand Champion cow, taking this honor on his winning three-year- old in milk Meri Acres Sovereign Bess. Marshall also had the junior champion female, Merl Acres Hap- py, who headed the junior yearling heifer and the reserve senior cham- pion bull Meri Acres Sovereign, who stood next to the grand cham- pion in the class for two-year-old bulls. Senior and grand champion bull was the winning two-year old, Rossbolm Sovereign Duke, awned by Howard Feagan, Goderich. Jun- ior and Reserve Grand' Champion. was the first prize junior bull calf, Banella Perfection Hope, shown by T. Hayden & Son, Gerrie, while the reserve junior went to the sec- ond prize winner in this class, Rossholm Sovereign King, owned by L. Leeming & Son, Walton. Peter Simpson, Seaforth, showed the reserve senior and reserve grand champion female, the 'win- ner of this award being his first prize four-year-old, in Milk :Com- mander Mercedes Rag Apple.

They range from vicious little high -velocity .22's with a muzzle speed of over four thou- sand feet a second, to ,giant Brit- sh shells for big game hunting. "Daddy" of these is the .600 Nitro Express. Bigger in bore than the .50 calibre cannon fired from a wartime plane, it is fired in a dou- ble barrelled rifle—from the shoul- der! In the collection is an even big- ger igger shell—a .60 calibre Chinese "jingal." The brass case is nearly five inches long, and it fits a one - inch breech opening, It was made for a "two man" Chinese bolt ac- tion rifle used in the Boxer up -ris- ing at the beginning of the cen- tury. Perhaps one of the most historic British military cartridges is tae paper -wrapped load for the 1553 model Enfield, the last muzzle load- ing weapon of the British Army. This is the cartridge said to have caused the Indian Mutiny, because the base of the paper cylinder was sealed with a mixture containing tallow of the cow and the l,ig. When in 1857, Britain's native troops in India learned this (the end of the cartridge bad to be bit- ten off before use, thus exposing Hindus to sacrilege and Moham- medans to defilement) well, the fat was in the fire. Another cartridge in the jumbo category, with a distinctly old fash- ioned look is that for the Big Fifty Sharps rifle. You would have seen this arm lying across the lap of a bearded, red-shirted guard riding beside the driver on the Overland stage tent of Bannack or Carson City in the '60's. This was the gun that exterminated the buffalo by tens of thousands on the plains of Kansas. An earlier model was in John Brown's hand when he took his stand against slavery by try- ing to seize the arsenal at IIar- per's Ferry in 1859. Preacher Hen- ry' Ward Beecher helped Brown's cause from the pulpit, and the Sharp's rifle got dubbed the "Beecher's e8ible." The term "sharpshooter" also derived from these famous rifles. • Revolver shells, too, have a lot of historical glamour for the gun - minded. Turn over some of these old-timers and get a glimpse of the old west, the west of Bat Mas- terson, Billy the Kid, Wyatt Earp and Wild Bill Hickok. Somehow the terms "forty-five" and "forty- four" always seem synonymous with sheriffs and outlaws. And if you think the .45 is a big revolver shell, take a look at this .476 to fit the British Enfield re- volver, or this .591 to fit a French revolver. And here's a nine milli- metre Mars, developed in England about 1900 and, reputed, to be the most powerful handgun cartridge ever made. Besides British and U.S. cart - sedges in the collection are Tur- kish, French, Russian and Belgian cases, Roumanian and Japanese, machine=made and hand -made cas- es. In the realm of the curious and unusual, here's a tiny Kolibri auto made shell from Germany. Less than three millimetres in diame- ter, you can hide it under your thumbnail, Although only about a. third the length of a match, and about the same thickness, this bul- let will go through three and n half inches of pine. The tinier- thatevesd.-poc'ketarm that 'fired It was probably used In espionage worlr.
