C, W, Hanna, Reeve R. H. Thompson,. Clerk x1.41att!iv•ii: Pawn at Oristoade By Lewis How time flies! As. we grow old- er, the old man with' a scythe seems to be putting on speed: leaving a long9r trail of stubble behind him. When We were young we . didn't notice the, stubble be- cause we had fewer memories. 'The Pest was a tale that Was told to us, and sometimes a tedious one. treP PrI rSe's'ent and ;wer e "hijoYw ritoe'(!jmiPaikeed:' with the most of it, for it was the only reality and. it moved, so slow ly that it seemed to be permanent., Little did we realize that it wee. "slipping nmierneath our feet;" and less did we • care, far the fat- ure lay open before us with its, luring prOmises of better things to come, For us older folk Christnias is a little interlude between the past and the future,, in which time' seems to pause or sleeker; its pace for a fresh start with . the New Year, As children we had' no, idea Of time, for we had no past to measure it by; we lived in an eter- nal "now". The world was new—a motion picture of wonders for our entertainment. Our only sense of duration was that between sleepy lag and waking, Our days were years, and too short at that •for all we wanted to see and under- stand, We hated to go to bed lest we should miss something, and we cried ourselves to sleep out of sheer exhaustion, "Tothorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow crept in their petty pace from, day to day.", until time speeded up and, we found ourselves in and part of the motion 'picture. And that is where we adults are at Christmas, But we are in, a dual capacity of play-actors and we are the producers and direct,, ors, of the show. The teen-agers are somewhere in between those categories. They are• neither child", ren nor adults, and they are so confused that they "rock and roll'' in their play from one to the other. To us elders they seem foolish, but we forget that we were once teen* ,agers „and., that foolishriess,,,like original sin, is an inheritance, But my objection, to, rock and roll, from what I have seen of it, is that the teeners take it too seriously and discordantly. I could quite understand and appreciate their antics if they were a musical expression of delight at their arrival at the dawn • of manhood, and womanhood. That was eri- Pressed in the old days by the gay May-pole dances of Merry England, But they were musical and merrily delightful for the dancers and the villagers who looked on. At this Christmas, season' there is reason for merriment. We are • celebrating the dawn of Christian- ity with the birth of a Child in a barn at Bethlehem. That was two thousand years, •ago, and although we have not fulfilled the angels' message of "Peace on earth and good will among all men," the earth is still young, A thousand years is but "as a watch in• the night", and the coming of the Sun of righteousness 's dawning on the consciousness and the con- science of the human race, There are signs, in the uniting of nat- ions, that mankind is coming of age, when the discordant rock onr roll of war will be displacod by the joyful Hallelujah Chorus, Let us wish and work for such a Merry Christmas for all mankind, Plying-up Ceremony. Held on Monday Brown Owl, Mrs, Norman Elliott and Captain Mrs. George Hender- son were in charge of a "Flying- up" ceremony at a joint meeting of Brownies and• Guides, held, at the Presbyterian Church last Monday night: Four former Brownies, who had completed and passed all Brownie tests by the age of 11, received their wings which signifies that they had "flown" into.
