Resurrection
0 grand and glorious Easter Morn!
That marks the resurrection of our
King
No happier day in all the world was
born
Than this, of which we gladly sing.
The risen Lord, oh, what a hope!
A ray of light to expell all gloom,
The assurance that the love of God
Can ne'er be buried in a tomb,
Weary and discouraged one look and
see
Arise, arise, lift up thy head!
The truth He proved will make you
free
"There are no dead, there are no
dead."
The exalted Christ stoops down to-day
And marks the path where He has
trod,
Be as little children learn the way
That leads to service and to God.
Oh, blessed truth that Jesus taught,
That He worked out for you and me,
That we might rise to higher planes
And all God's wondrous glories see.
Each thought that's pure will lift us
higher,
That we may see His face;
Each deed of service gives us power
To know, His love and Grace.

11WIAL-URDAN RELATIONS
The greatest problem facing the
rural population and tho people in the
smaller towns these days is the pro-
Motion of better rural-urban relations,
We need not explain any further the
fact that the rural people cannot get
along without the services made avail-
able by the small towns and cities,
But, likewise, it is very important
that one impress upon all the folks
in town, that they too, cannot get
along with their cousins on the farm.
The isolationists who claim that the
farmers weld do quite well without
the folks in town, or those who main-
tain that the farmers are more of a
hindrance than a help, are even more
foolish than the ostrich who hides his
head in the sand in the face of obvious
• danger,
This major job should take priority
in the agenda of every rural and urb-
an organization, that we have in busi-
nesses today, It is easy to tear down
good relations by a foolish statement
or a foolish or selfish move. But it
takes years to build up good feelings
and amiable relations between the
farmer-producers and the urban con-
sumers. As a matter of fact, a most
glaring example of this has been brew-
ing in these parts during the last few
weeks, over the assessment of the
town of Wingham and the costs of
maintenance and operation of the
Wingham High School and the Wing-
ham Hospital. In each case we all
have to work together, the farmers
and the urban people, hand in hand,
and the foolish situation that arose
over the reassessment of Wingham,
did more to tear down good relations
with the farmers, than has been done
constructively, in the past five years,
Let's be away with all this bickering
and misunderstanding. Let's gather
farmers and townsfolk together when
we want to talk over mutual problems,
and show a little more give
and take. There are so many questions
that vitally concern farmers. Quest-
ions such as Saturday night store
closing hours, daylight saving time,
parking facilities for farmers, the op-
eration of a community sale in town,
the making available of services such
as feed stores, pharmacists and others,
in the evenings during busy seasons,
These, and a million more, are of con-
cern to the farmers and to the mer-
chants who deal with them. There is
only one way to deal With them and
that is to get ideas from all concern-
ed. This means rural people and urban
people.
Wingham, and the other towns in
Western Ontario, are dependent upon
the business from the surrounding
municipalities, our merchants' agree.
Likewise the farmers are dependent
upon these towns for their services
and neither could operate efficiently
without them, Let's try and get along
a little better instead of making moun-
tains out of molehills and promoting
ill will instead of good will, . . Better
rural-urban relations is the answer
and this means a better understanding
of each others mutual problems .
You can't get this at home in your
own kitchen. . . You have to get out
among the other people and find out
where they stand and what they need.
BIG GERMAN V2
SHIPPED FROM GODERICH
A four ton German V2 rocket
bomb such as was used by the Nazis
to fire across the English channel dur-
ing the last war was trucked from the
R.C,A.F. Station, Clinton, on Friday
to Goderich and loaded on a C.N.R flat
car. It was shipped the same day to
the R.C.A. School at Piston..
This massive rocket bomb is 46 feet
long and colored in large red and
white checkers, Its snout comes to a
point and the other end has'a series of
large firm propellers, The bomb was
seized by the Canadians at the end of
World War II before the Germans
had a chance to launch it and was
eventually brought to Canada for
observation, Two years ago it was on
display at the Canadian National Ex-
hibition at Toronto. Since then it has
been at Clinton.—Goderich Signal-
Star.
