The world is in such a turmoil, peo­ ple find it hard to find something for which to be thankful, “Let us then raise our voices in praise to God for, the things of God that poverty and sadness cannot take from us," she continued. “‘Let us give thanks for the sturdy faith of our forefathers, for the status of women in this land; let us always look for something, no matter how small for which to give thanks. Thank God always for everything, Most of us fail to see our greatest blessing till we are threatened with the loss of it. ‘“Ihrough gratitude we find the most direct way to God. The gates of God’s fellowship swing open as we give thanks to Him. No music so stirs the heart of man as the psalms of gratitude and praise. But should gratitude end in song? From earliest times Gdd has been worshipped with offerings of various kinds. He ap­ preciates the sacrifices His people make to send His word abroad. Our time, wealth and talents belong to God and we are answerable to Him for the use we make of our talents. “In everything give thanks, for this is the 'will of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” A vote’of thanks to Mrs. Scott was moved by Mrs. Donald Rae and sec­ onded by Miss Christine Isbister, After a vocal solo by Miss Myra MacDonald, the meeting adjourned to the S.S. room where refreshments were served, Proclamation At the request of many citizens who are an­ xious to attend the Service of Remembrance to be held at thle.

W.O.H.A WILL NOT OP ERATE THIS SEASON Owing to the war, the Western On­ tario Hockey Association will not re­ sume operations this winter. An­ nouncement to that effect was made by President J. C. McDonald, Ches- ley. He explained that officers of the association, which did not operate last year, had decided that conditions were not favorable for reviving the Assoc­ iation this season. The enlistment of many intermediate players in various towns in the district makes it doubt­ ful whether many of the former strongholds of the association would be able to 'enter clubs this winter.
