Capacity Crowds Mark
Ontario Street Anniversary
Auditorium of Ontario St. Unit-
ed Church was filled to capacity
for both services Sunday to mark
the anniversary celebration of the
church.
The minister, Rev. A. Glen
Eagle, was in charge of both ser-
vices, preaching in the morning
on "An Ideal Congregation"; and
in the evening on "The Cult of
Irresponsibility".
A full choir, under the direction
of Mrs, E. Wendorf, organist and
leader, rendered special music,
being assisted at both services
by Knox Church Male Quartette
of Goderich, consisting of Ralph
Henderson, Larne Hyde, Dan
Walter and Glen Lodge, who sang'
twice at each service.
Leslie Pearson took the solo
part in the morning anthem, "All
Hail the Power", and Miss Barb-
ara -Churchill that in the—even-
ing anthem, "0 Worship the
King."
Anniversary Supper
The anniversary supper .in the
church basement Tuesday even-
ing proved a 'great success with
tibout 500 in attendance. The
ladies ran short of some supplies,
notably turkey, before all had
been served..
Irresponsibility
Rev. Mr. Eagle took his even-
ing text from Exodus 32: Aaron
said: "Thou knowest the people
that they are set on mischief;
and I said unto them, whosoever
bath any gold, let them break it
off, then cast it into the fire and
then came . out this calf." Moses
said: "Who is on the Lord's side?
Let him come unto me." .
"When Aaron failed to take a
stand, he failed as a leader," the
minister stated ."That is why a
lot of us, who are supposed to be
Christians, are failing.
•"We fail to take a stand. It
might hurt someone's feelings if
we told them hell was wide open
to receive unredeemed sinners.
We might lose a dollar by keep-
ing the injunction to keep the
Sabbath holy. We might be,.
come unpopular in some quarters
by asserting that drunkenness
was against the will of God.
"We haven't been placed here
just to follow, to drift with the
crowd, to let things just happen.
We have been set here to preserve
our nation, to preserve and as-
sure its welfare. You are a
Watchman for the principles dear
to the Life of this nation."

County Polio Cases
Now Seem on Wane
Fortunately, poliomyelitis is on
the wane in Huron Cou&rty. The
dread killer and crippler disease
had a fair fling in September,
but its incidence has dropped off
considerably in the past week or
two.
"Early September saw a mark-
ed increase in the number of
polio cases within the county,"
Dr. R, M, Aldis, Medical Officer
of Health, told Huron County
Health Unit at its monthly meet-
ing in Minton Thursday after-
noon last, with Reeve Frank S.
Sills. Seaforth, chairman, pre-
siding.
"Eight new oases were report-
ed. six of thein paralytic," Dr.
Aldis said, "All were hospitaliz-
ed, and except for one death of
a 20 -year-old male, the remaind-
er have shown good progress.
Dr. Aldir stated that the ma-
jority of the severe type in which
have occurred symptoms of ill-
ness, ].rave continued to work or
have engaged in strenuous activ-
ity. In some, there was a recent
history of chilling and exposure
to extremes of cold while over-
heated from exercise.
"There has been a marked de-
cline in the disease this past
week," he declared,
Inspector Resigns
