Fischer called the Keys family to the plat- form and read the following address: To Mr. and Mrs. Keys and family: - Dear Friends, We your neighbours and friends wish upon this occasion to express to you our most sincere regret at your departure from our midst. You have made splendid citizens, help- ful and obliging neighbours and time friends Our community bas been enriched by your pleasant personality and your work. Ynu Mabe always been willing to help in every way. We shall miss your little family too, all different but equally beloved by ns 09. However, we are pleased to know that you are not going so far away but ghat you can come back to visit ns often. For you the latch string will always hang outside of the neigh- hout}iood. As a small token of our love, please accept this purse with the combined wishes of each and every one for abundance of health, new friends and prosperity in your future home.

In Airs, the final in the series ou (Ytrietiun ,eiarr'iage, 1 deal with the subJect of, 'The Family and the Community." Just as the life of two people is enriched as they give of themselves to their family, so is the fantily life enriched as it gives of itself to the community. But it must have a lire to give. A generation ago there were to be found many families whose ideal was symbolised by their 01011 fireside— families which were self-contained and made but few contacts with the neighbourhood in which they lived and contributed but little to it Te- ddy there are not many such; family life at the present time is 60 con. stantly in touch with outside interests that, if it is not of a eolith' quality, it is apt to be exhausted rather than enriched by them. Front the family point of view rhe world is too much with us—the press, the radio, organisations, and interests of all sorts claim us. To organise a fstinily in such a way that its - members will delight in simple things, that nights `in' may be as important as nights 'out', is to -clay 110 mean achieve - meet, Yet dt must be attempt ed for the sake of the community no less than for the sake of the family. For what is more needed in the life of the world than simplicity of living ands quietness of spirit? A family life which possesses such things can afford to form contacts with the outside world, and in so do - 'ng will enrich its awn life But Christian parents will en_ deavour to give more than this to their young people. By careful teaching and training, and above all by example they will seek to britfg them to a knowledge of God in Christ. Jesus, In this high task and exacting duty help is needed, nd nowhere can it be found more adequately than in the Christian Church. The services of Public Worship, the Sacraments, the Christian Fellowship, each in their several ways can help the family to send individuals into the world to give and not to take. These men and women will enrich the world Brussels United Church The trial of Jesus before Pontius Pilate was the subject of the morn- ing sermon in the United Ohurcb, b Mrs, 0. Walker sang "Ashamed of t Jesus" in excellent voice. In the 0 evening the minister spoke on d "Turning the other Cheek." eoause, having experienced some- hing of the Power of God in their wlr 'lives', they believe that Jesus id not mock us when He taught us o pray, "Thy Will be drone in earth, as it is in Heaven."

In 1917 he was milted in marriage to Joanna Anderson who prede- ceased her husband five years ago. Two sisters, Mr& 'phos, Bane and Mrs. Robert Smith and a brother, Alan, also predeceased him.

Service Rendered By Chartered Banks Much Better Understood in the new 1946 institutional ad- man appears the first advertisement in the new 19440 institutional ad_ vertising campaign put before the public in behalf of the Chart- ered Banks, It is now getting on for ten years since the Chartered Banks instituted a Public lteatians Department, and during eight or nine of those ten years the banks appear to have acted upon the sound - assumption that the best way to hold the proud place they occupy in this nation's economy is by means of'an informed public opinion. Each year a strong advertising campaign has been carried on by the bankers in which not only the daily newspaper is used but in which the unique influence of the "weekly newspaper is fully recognized. These adver- tisements dead with the services that banks perform so well under OUT system of free enterprise, and appear in avery wide range of weekly newspapers. It is a fact that at least the vast population served by the weekly newspapers have become much better informed about the banking system through these advertisements over the last eight to nine years. 111. informed criticism of the banks which formerly was very widespread has diminished to a degree which is little short of spectacular. Popular understanding is much more mani- fest. We think it is due to the intelligence with which the bankers have approached their problem and the skill with which the facts about banking have been presented in these advertising campaigns. The new campaign will be welcomed by be public. Tt looks Pike a telling ilece of work. ---Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville Church Notes A unanimous call was given recently by Bluevale and Delmore Preshyteriau churches to the Rev. L. C.
