"A GLORIOUS FACT" attested to by millions to whom He is a living and abiding real- ity. They are ever conscious of His presence, friendship, grace and guidance. That great countless number whom He has redeemed by His precious blood, unitedly testify to the fact that the Lord Jesus is risen from the dead, for He is as real to them as life itself. If Jesus Christ had remained buried in the grave, the story of His life and death would have remained buried with Him,. The New Testament is an ef- fect of Christ's resurrection. It was the resurrection that put heart into the disciples to go forth and tell its story. The New Testament is the book of the resurrection. The glorious fact of Christ's resurrection is an indication of our own future. Ile said to Ills disciples, " Because I live, ye shall live also." John 14:19. In the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, we have the guarantee of our own immortality; for the dead in Christ "shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed". I Corin- thians 15:52. In His resurrec- tion and ascension into 'leaven, we have a "strong consolation", for Ile is our "Forerunner" who has gone before us. How fervently the Apostle Paul declares: "But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept. For since by man carne death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead". I Corinthians 15; 20-21. To the Apostle John on the Isle of Patmos, the Lord of Glory said; "Fear not, I am the first and the last: 1 am Ile that liveth, and was dead: and be- hold I am alive for evermore. Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death." Rev, 1:17- 18. "Bur now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept.'' I Corinthians 15;20. It was a sad day for the dis- ciples when they saw their Lord suffering, dying upon a cross of wood and then buried within a tomb. It meant the burial of their faith, their hopes, for they had "trusted that it had been He which should have redeemed Israel". The death and burial of Christ made it impossible to entertain such a hope any longer. We know that the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ suddenly trans- formed these sad, fearful, des- pairing disciples into men who were full of joy, confidence and courage. The resurrection of Christ is a glorious ;'acr; a fact establish- ed by o\•erwhelming evidence. Devoted hut despondent wo- men came early on the first day of the week to "anoint" the body ottheir Lord, an act which shows they had no hope of any further living fellowship with Him. To their amaze- ment, they found the stone rolled away, and within the tomb there was no sign of their Lord's body. While they were standing atnazed, full of fear, two angels appeared, saying, " Why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen." Luke 'S4: 5-8. They were reminded that this was in accordance with Christ's own prediction while with there in the flesh. The fact of the resurrection of Christ is further substantiated in the birth and growth of the early church. The small com- pany of believers upon whom the Holy Spirit fell on the day of Pentecost, has become a vast multitude. The resurrec- tion of the Lord Jesus Christ is and family and Mrs. William Klein, all of Gowanstown, were Sunday guests of Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred Johann and sons. A number of Belmore friends attended the Haelzle-Schiestel wedding in Teeswater on Satur- day morning. Joins Wingham Jewellery Store Harold J. Miller, who has been working in Simcoe for the past 20 years has been en- gaged by Haferrnehl's Jewel- lery Store as a watchmaker and jeweller. Mr. Miller has held a license as a C.N.R. watch in- spector for the past 18 years. He has had a long career in the business, having started as a youth with his father in Kit- chener. He entered the retail - wholesale trade, where he be - carne a certified watchmaker. Before the war he worked in Windsor, Timmins and in Ham- Town Council Favors Public School Proposal (Continued From P ge One) $300,000 program would mean an annual debenture and inter- est payment of $25, 000 over and above the present figure of $15, 000. Normally this latter figure would drop in 1972 as debentures on the 1952 addition will then be retired, those cov- ering the 1957 addition being completed in 1977, Thus it will mean extending debenture payments until 1985. These points were brought out in a series of questions by the councillors, who also want- ed to know if it was anticipa- ted that the school population will increase. Inspector Kin- kead said it appeared that at- tendance will remain some- where between 475 and 490 for some time. Councillor ' to:wkowski ex- pressed a view held by several councillors tha, the 87 -year- old building has served its day, and is a fire trap, Board chairman Harris ex- plained that the proposed de- sign of the building will mean that the auditorium would be available for public use as the corridors to the school proper Guests Attend Goforth Aux. The Goforth Evening Auxil- iary of St. Andrew's Presbyter- ian Church held its Easter Thankoffering meeting in the ladies' church parlor. The presi• ident, Mrs. S. Forsyth opened the meeting with a call to wor- ship. The Scripture was read by the following members who were in charge of the program for the meeting: Mrs. J. Carr, Mrs. O. Casemore, Miss E, Carr and Mrs. G. Smith and Mrs. G. Scott, followed by meditations by Miss E. Carr and prayer by Mrs. J. Carr. An Easter message with its thought taken from Phillipians 4:8 and written by her sister, was read by Mrs. O. Casemore. The secretary, Mrs. H. Bateman read the minutes of the previous meeting. Mrs• S. Forsyth extended a gracious welcome to all visitors pres- ent from Goderich and the afternoon Women's Missionary Society of St. Andrew's. "Jesus, 0 How Sweet Thy Name", was sung by Miss Judy Forsyth. Mrs. G. Smith introduced the guest speaker Miss Eva Somerville of Goderich, who showed a wonderful selection of slides taken during a recent trip to the Holy Land. Mrs. G. Scott thanked the speaker. "Beneath the Cross ofJesus" was sung and Mrs, Forsyth clos- ed the meeting with prayer. Lunch was served by the com- mittee in charge of the meet- ing. could be locked off, and the room would have a separate entrance, 1-1e went on to say that with the boilers in the present con- dition, it is possible that they could fail during cold weather and the school would have to close, For this reason he felt it was imperative to have the program start as soon as poss- ible. " SWIMMING POOL A delegation from the Kins- men Club was also on hand for the meeting. Kin president Calvin Burke told council that the club had become interested in a plan to incorporate an in- door swimming pool in the building program. He said that this had come about because the club was sponsoring the Boy Scouts and that accommodation at the old CPR station is now inadequate, It was felt with the addition of some auxiliary space in con- nection with the new auditor- ium, and the approval of the school board, much better fa- cilities would be available at the school. This plan had been expanded with the suggestion to have a swimming pool built underneath the auditorium - gymnasium. Unfortunately, original cost estimates for the pool had jumped from $50, 000 to $125, 000 when it was found impractical to have the pool under the gym. Mr. Burke said that a Kins- men committee travelled to Toronto with school board members and found that the Department of Education, while not in position to pro- vide grants for the pool, was in favor of the idea and will give its blessing if the money can be found. He said that a number of avenues are being investigated to find the money. He thought that as much as $60, 000 may be available in grants of one kind and another, and that the remainder could be raised lo- cally. During its trip to Tor- onto the group had looked at pools in North York which have been built in connection with schools, and found they are being used to great advan- tage, They are used by the school children during the day and are operated by the muni- cipal recreation council in the evenings, Hourly operational costs are running about $3.50 HA'FERMEHL': JEWELLERY WINGHAM 6 \ Which is covered by admission charges for evening use and by the school boards for the P.T. programs for the children. Mr. Burke told. council heap- preciated that information available at the moment was not sufficient, and that the school program could not be held up. However he asked council to leave the door open for further consideration, In a further discussion the board members said it would be possible to have the archi- tects do the initial planning for the pool or at least deter- mine if it is feasible. The meeting concluded when council approved a mo- tion by Councillors Cruick- shank and Moszkowski to re- quest the board to proceed with its second proposal and obtain preliminary drawings from the architect, and to have the pool and other auxiliary facili- ties included in the plan. 3 TWO CERTIFIED WATCHMAKERS TO PROVIDE FAST, EFFICIENT SERVICE.
