St. James' Marks
Anniversary
Of Father Weber
St. James' Church, Seaforth,
was the scenee of a fitting pres-
entation to Rey. Father E. P. Web-
er on the occasion of bis thirty-
fifth anniversary of his onfination
into the Priesthood.
Father Weber, son of the late
Joseph Weber and Mary Magdeline
Boehler, was born in Egmond-
mile. He attended school in Sea -
forth and Dublin, two years at
Stratford Collegiate after valikh he
attended St. Jerome's College,
Kitchener, graduating from there
in 1916. Father Weber then en-
tered St. Peter's Seminary, Lon-
don, where he completed his
studies.
May 29th, 1920, the late Bishop
M. F. Fallon, Bishop a London,
ordained Father Weber to the
Priesthood. The •newly ordained
priest came to his his home parish,
St. James',Seaforth, where he
sang his first Solemn High Mass.
During his first year Father
Weber assisted in relief work at
Seaforth and Hessen, the following
year becoming an assistant at
Woodstock. In 1922 he was trans-
ferred to St. Marys', London. One
year later, he was appointed pas-
tor to Hesson where he remained
for over nine years. When appoint-
ments were made the following
year, 1932, be was appointed pas-
tor to St. Patrick's Church at
Kinkora, succeeding Father Hus-
sey who was appointed pastor to
St. James' Church, Seaforth. Upon
the death of Father Hussey, in
September, 1950, Father Weber was
appointed by His Excellency, Bish-
op John C. Cody, to fill the vacancy
at Seaforth.
Since coming to Seaforth Father
Weber has been untiring in his
efforts, for the past five years, to
completely renovate St. James'
Church and today it stands as a
shrine of beauty and a place of
worship of which the parishoners
are veryproud.
Following' he High Mass at 8.30
an address was read by Frank
Reynolds, and the presentation of
a purse was -made by Jos. Dever-
eaux on behalf of the parishoners.
'This was followed by presenta-
tions by Mrs. Leo Fortune on be-
balf of the _Altar Society and by
Mrs. Russel Pringle on behalf of
The Catholic Women's League,
while Miss Elaine Etue presented
a Spiritual -Bouquet on behalf of
the Sodality,
Father Weber thanked his parish-
oners and the societies for their
thoughtfulness and kind wishes on
this happy occasion. He also re-
ceived many other fine gifts dur-
ing the day.
Anniversary Address
Dear Father Weber:
It would neither Mting, nor in
keeping with the traditions of St.
James' Church„ri we were to allow
this memorable day of your priestly
Life to go unmarked by some ex-
pression of esteem and gratitude,
we feel towards you, our worthy
pastor.
Lacodaire, with immortal elo-
quence, sums up the priestly life,
we quote, "To live in the world
but to be denied its pleasures; to
be a member of -each family, but to
belong to none; to penetrate all
the secrets, to feel all the wounds,
to go from man to God to offer
Him their prayers, to return from
God to man, to bring back hope
and pardon, to offer sacrifice, to
console and bless, and to be bless-
ed f r "
Such a priest we know, and
esteem in the person of our Rev.
Pastor, Father Weber. As we
joyfully celebrate your thirty-five
years of unbroken and unselfish
love of God and of souls, we honor
with grateful hearts, a priest ever
devoted to our people's welfare.
For thirty-five years, five of
which were spent with us, you, dear
Father Weber, have worked tire-
lessly to be a good and faithful
priest Few, among us, have not
=
need your consoling help -
in time of sorrow and trial.
at your band, the poor have found
nilef and the sick, comfort
You have spent yourself, Father
Weber, in the arduous labors of our
parish. Oar beautiful church and
its surroundings show careful and
aesthetic planning. We are justly
proud of St. James' Church.
The children of the parish have
also claimed your attention. And
our young people, too, will look
back with deep gratitude, as they
recall your efforts to provide for
them a religious training that
-would enable them to meet the
;stern realities of life and to reach
.out. to the Worthwhile things. As
aa reward for your efforts, we hope
that many of our boys and girls
will, in future, consecrate them-
selves to follow their Model, Christ,
and others becoine good and noble
citizens.
We ask you, Father Weber, to
accept this 'Gift, from the parish-
smers of St. James' Church. It is
:accompanied by our sincere pray-
ers and good wishes. In return,
we know that you will not forget us
in your. prayers and good works.
God bless you, today and every
day.

Duff's YPU Hear
James R. Scott
James R. Scott, Seaforth, was

Mr.. Scott based his remarks on
the well-known story of "David
and Goliath". "When the Philistine
saw David he disdained him for he
was but a youth." Mr. Scott
urged the congregation to see that
they did not disdain youth and
reminded them that they are re-
sponsible for the conditions facing
the next generation.
Neil McGavin, the president of
the YPU, conducted the service,
assisted by Ruth Anne Ennis, who
read the Responsive reading.
Audrey Hackwell read the scripture
lesson and Ronald Smith led in
prayer.

was guest soloist and a choir of
Young People rendered special
music accompanied by Miss Doris
Johnston. Jan Van Vliet, David
Hackwell and John McGavin re-
ceived the offering.

Mrs. F. Coleman

Mrs. Frank J. Coleman proved
fatal for the 72 -year-old resident of
Hullett township, who died in
the Stratford General Hospital Sat-
urday afternoon.
Last Wednesday afternoon the
deceased had been putting wood in
the stove, when all her clothing
went up in flames. Cries of help
brought her husband from the
barn, but by the,,time he reached
the house, he found his wife sitting
in a chair with most of her cloth-
ing burned off her body.
Mrs. Coleman's son, Francis, Jr.,
said he thought her clothing had
been burning for some time before
she realized it. "It's a wonder
the house didn't catch fire," he
said.

titled to vote. As a result of t1, -
arrangement, it is possible that -
many who otherwise might Mk
have had the opportunity to vote,
will be enabled to cast a ballot. eel
While the provision of advanced
polls and the enlargeme_nt (If theeTee
regulations permitting voting at
such polls may mean an increase ifl ,
those being permitted to vote, on, e
the other hand, the eliminatioij of
any facilities whereby names omit-
ted from the lists can be added,
well -mean a reduction in those who
will vote, according to election vot-
ers. For the first time, no pre,
vision has been made for the rel.
vision of rural voters' lists, Once
the enumeration has been com-
pleted, the enumerators lists are
ordered printed by the returning
officer and cannot be revised.
Formerly, following -enumera-
tion, the public was given an 'op-
portunity of examining the lists,
and if errors were noted, or names
were omitted, could have necess-
ary changes made by a revising
officer before the lists were final-
ized. Under an amendment to the
act, this opportunity to ensure that
the lists are correct and complete
is no longer possible.
Election workers claim that
many names have been emitted
from the lists and that the only
way these people will be able to
vote is to appear at &, poll and be
sworn in. It is feared that there
will be hesitancy on the part of
those who for many years have
had their name on the list to go
through the cumbersome machin-
ery which the amended election
act makes necessary. A prelim.
inary survey of the lists by poll-
ing division workers indicates
that many of those who have been
omitted are elderly people.
Qn voting day, electors have 12
hours in which to cast their bal-
lot. Polls open at 9 o'clock in the
morning and close at 8 o'clock in
the evening, D.S.T.
