Page One ed to the array of lovely fruits and vegetables. At the top and , in its rightful place was the open Bible with its reminder that "Man does not live by bread alone". Family worship was conduct- ed by Captain Ferris and many of the old harvest songs of praise were sung. The Young People's Choir sang "A Harvest Song of Thanksgiving' with solos taken by Beverley Rawn and Wesley Ferris. The recent- ly formed choir boasts 20 in number and the members sing clearly with a tuneful expres- sion. The text used by Captain Ferris was St, Luke 17:17 with emphasis on the gratitude dis- played by the one who returned to give thanks and glorify God, stressing thanksgiving as being a mark of quality, because it is wholly voluntary. It reveals not only sight but insight and thirdly it is the infallible indi- cator of a noble nature, the watermark of character. The lesson was read by Norman Bon- nett of Westfield and Mrs. Cap- tain Ferris presided at the organ. When friends and comrades gathered for the evening ser- vice of praise they were wel- comed and made to feel at home by the invitation given them to personally take part by giving thanks unto God for His many blessings. A lively testi- Imony period followed with t familiar choruses led by Cap- tain Ferris, The Salvation Ar- my Band plays a most import- ant part in the worship of God and C.S.M. Wm. Henderson presented the band in their con- tribution to the service. The , theme of the service was "In Times Like These".

The Mustang's Victory as Seen By Bill Kerr The high school page had al- ready gone to press when we re- ceived the following account of last Wednesday's game between the Mustangs and Mitchell Blue Devils from Bill Kerr. Norm Corrin supplied the first write- up so we wouldn't be without a report, but it is hard for a play- er to get the all-over picture of a game. This is the game as Bill saw it. o--0--0 Neighbours Hold Farewell Party GORRIE—A pleasant surprise was received by Mrs. Alice Newton on Tuesday afternoon when all her neighbors dropped in to say good-bye and present her with a lovely table lamp.

It was their second straight victory in as many starts as they carried on their promising bid to regain the Huron Perth Championship, an honor that has bypassed the school's trophy case for the past three seasons. An alert Wingham defense took advantage of a shaky Mit- chell offense letting them come into their end only twice during the first half of play. While the defense held Mitchell scoreless Dave Gowing pushed Wingham into a 12-0 lead on two touch- downs. The first came on a 40-yard end sweep in the open- ing quarter and the other on a short run in the second quarter. Both touchdowns were unconvert, ed. Mitchell's kicker Schaefer booted a single early in the quarter but any hopes they had for further gain were erased when Mustang fullback Grant Coultes ran for a major from in close and followed that up by running for the convert. The score after three quarters; Wing- ham 19, Mitchell 1. In the final quarter Coultes kicked a single and Norm Cor- rin completed the scoring, bull• ing his way around the end and over the line for a touchdown. :Last line not written by Norm.)
