By the spring of 1813 the Americans had finally . won a campaign in the War of 1812.14. They took over the town of York in . April, and a month later went on to take Fort George at the junction oil Lake Ontario and the Niagara River. Severing Upper Canada from the east now seemed within easy reach. But a 700 -.man force of Canadian and Britisharegulars followed the Americans to Stoney Creek near Hamilton. There they routed theA merican camp and press: ,ed on to Beaver,D'am near Qiteenston. The Am. ericans decided to finish the Canadian force at 'Beaver Dam and 600 men were assigned to do Ole Job. However, before the planned American attack, two American officers com. mandeered a meal at the home of Loyalist From the Imperial 011 Collection James Secord. While the uninvited guests ate, they talked of the Beaver Dam plan. At tunrise the next morning 38 -year-old. Laura S eeord slipped out,'.of the house and 'casually drove a cow past an American outpost. Then she hurried 12 miles through the backwoods to Beaver Dam where she was taken, tattered and exhausted, to Colonel James Fitzgibbon. Laura blurted out . the story of the planned aback, but as it happened Fitzgibbon already knew of it. The Americans were ambushed by Canadian Indians before they reached Beaver Dam. None. theless, the story of Laura Secord's brave journey to warn o of-tlit_'.attack has become a Canadian legend, (This hisforicar"'featufe -is one of a series readers may wish to clip and save.)

MYSTERY OF GOD -MAN The God -man is the" great mystery Orthe universe andlie Gospel holds the key. See John 6: 51, 62; 13: 3-4; 17: 3.5; , 1 Timothy 8:16. Why were Mark, John, and Paul silent more or less, about this mystery? Yes, they• knew but their writings weld aftff fed to other purposes. Would the Virgin Birth be iii. possible? Let God step in on the scene and impossibplity steps back and sits down and God had -the floor. The union of •the Divine and the human natures In, one Person, Jesus Christ; goes beyond human understanding. Does that . say it is not true? Do you under- stand the union of oxygen and nitrogen to form air, ' or the union of hydrogen and oxygen to form water? Or the union of the body and _soul to amke 'you'?.

We . believe the expense of add- ing reinforcements to the Goderich detachment, which is already kept working a at capacity ° weekends, would be thoroughly justified, if needed to protect residents along the lakeshore resorts from the de- liberately noisy and dangerous hot- rod and cycle drivers.
