s,
Rebekahs and IOOF
Attend Divine Service
Huronic Rebekah Lodge No. 306.
and Clinton Lodge No. '83, IOOF,
attended Divine Service in Clin-
ton Baptist Church on Sunday
morning, May 16. A good repre-
sentation of both lodges and vis-
itors from Seaforth were present
at the service which was in
charge of the pastor, Rev. A.
Forsyth.
Mr. Forsyth based his sermon
on the parable of The Good Sam-
aritan, He stated that too many
people in the world to -day were
Iike the priest and the Levite.
They lived good lives as far as
living was concerned but when it
came to assisting others they were
afraid that they might get 'their
clothes dirty or their hands soiled
and so "passed by on the other
side." Some people were often
willing to help the other fellow
as long as it did not cost them
anything but if we are going to
really bring out the spirit that
Christ was wanting to teach we
would have to be willing to reach
our hand in our pockets and help
the unfortunate person not only
at the time but like the Samaritan
be ready to pay more at a later
date. The speaker went on to
say that too often when we are
thinking about this parable our
thoughts go mainly to the Good
Samaritan but what of the un-
fortunate one who was robbed and
wounded. What would his re-
action be when he realized that,
he had been assisted by one who
was an enemy of his people.
Naturally he would think' kindly:
toward him and that was another
lesson which the parable was to
teach.
Mrs. Ernest Adams was organ-
ist throughout the service and ac-
companied the choir in an. an-
them, and also Miss Eileen Po-
cock, who sang very sweetly,
"God Hath Not Premised."
