Catholic country.”
“I always think of the 12th of
July,” Mr. Hunter
holy day,, it is a day when all
Orangemen and
should reaffirm
faith, and rededicate themselves to
a great otask.”
“Stand together!” Mr, Hunter ex
horted. “You belong to different
churches, but they are all Protest
ant. The need for Canada is a unit
ed front of Anglican, Baptist,
Lutheran, Presbyterian and United
churchmen, to stand together, to
work together, that the Prptestant
witness may be a great united one.
I believe that here lies the strategy;
of our battle, The Roman Catholic
Church can afford to smile at eur
criticism, but that same church
weuld tremble before the witness
of a true, loyal Christian Protest
antism. If you want to hit where
it will hurt the most, go back to
your homes, your business, and
your farms to live the faith once
delivered to us, once purchased at
the cost of blood for us. Reforma
tion blood flows in our veins; Pro
testant ancestors are waiting for
us to make Protestantism really
great.”
Job For Orange Order
“Now, as much as at any time,”
said L. E. Cardiff of Brussels, M.P.
for North Huron, “there is a job
for the Orange order to do.”
“There are many here who, at
great sacrifice to themselves fought
in this war, oi' in the last war, for
liberty under the Union Jack. They
want to see the Union Jack have a
place on our national flag.”
Orangemen, everywhere, Mr. Car
diff said, should stand firm and
fight against the efforts of Quebec
groups to delete the Union Jack
.from Canada’s flag,
“If we had one flag, one law and
one language,” he said, “we would
have -a much more united country
1 than we have now. If we were
compelled to speak one language;
it would simplify a
ficulties.”
Other speakers at

of Blyth; Daniel Alton, of Vancou
