We are, of course, speaking qf church organizations. The one place in a community where the people of the Lord gather together for one purpose, nine times out of ten, is the placeeswhere .disagree- ment and disharmony are rife. Mrs. Jones has been a member of the choir for many years. Every- one is glad to see her come out faithfully to all practices and every service. One day, a new and younger voice comes to the choir Wt. Ales. Jones has to move one seat to the left to make room for the newcomer, What happens? Mrs. Jones is indignant. She's really burned up. She has to ,move from the seat where. she hes been sitting faithfully for nigh onto thirty years! So, she holds a grudge. The frustrated choir leader' wants young voices and yet, he cannot afford to lose his old faithfuls. One would think Mrs, Jones' years of faithfulness would , have filled her with the comforting all - giving spirit of the Lord and she would welcome the newcomer with open arms. But rarely does this happen. Examples sueh as this could fill all eight pages of this newspaper. We knew a church organist who had played in ,churches in all parts of Ontario — from Goderich to Cornwall and back again. ite spent the last few years 14 ptis life being disgusted with all churches because of the petty disagreements that were always cropping up. We knew of one staunch Pres- byterian who didn't like the min- ister so he didn't come to eh,urch. He stayed at home for five yeare and when the minister left, he came baek to church. Was this the • Ohristian attitude? Yes, these examples could fill more than one newspaper. , It's too bad ninety -gene per cent of us coutlehrt humble ourselves, enough to forget such ineonse- quential attitudes, especially whe connected with the ehinsch of our choice. The Great Galilean did his beat with the officials of the church during His days of preach- ing. Many Jimes He told the chief priests, the eeribes and the Phar- ieeee what utter nonsense they Were perpetrating. And now, the same conditions— this time of the cmind—are at work in nearly every chureh. It is time for many of us to forget mueelves and -differences and think only of Him. • If we do that long , faith- fully enough, our 0 ves and our own church will enriched beyond our -dreams. 11,M3WAY ENTERTAINMET PRIZES - EVIIItY DAY at ZURICH OENTNNNIAL OEMBRATIONS JULY 1 TO 4 45 aseeasez.

Provided the weather is good, we have a feeling there are going to be more boats at the mouth of the Maitland River on Jely 1st than there were in the famous Spanish Armada. This fleet will only be rowboats and power boats but there will be plenty of them and they will be filled with ambitious anglers. Rea- son for the gathering of the fishing clan will be the open- ing of the bass season for one thing. The other thing is the added incentive of the Gode- rich Jaycees' Bass Derby from July 1 to 15 with many valu- able prizes to be given for the largest bass caught. And don't think there aren't plenty to be caught. Only thing that re- mains to do is to catch 'em.
