Dr. Grassmith was at the school Thursday ,morning when he gave ashort talk on music and.play- ed several ,selections. `Then on Fri- day afternoon he and Mrs. Grossmith presented a recital to a Iarge audi- ence of public and high echiool pupils as well as quite a few parents and interested ,outsiders. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the school to purchase war savings cer- tificates. During the concert Dr. Gros -smith played several of his own .selections, r'noluding one from his new opera, "The Immortal Slave," Mrs. • Grossmith, sang and several humorous Sketches were- presented. * * * A new timetable was inaugurated this week.

This is the method I use and from practice I can remove and replace the rotor even after dark in a few seconds. Night driving Is certainly not very ple-asant •under present conditions. Lights �c-n one' -s car are restricted and only parking lights dimmed with two; layers of newspaper can be, used along with one headlight fitted With a special shield which limits the light conside: ably. On dark nights I can ae•sure you that motoring is quite a strain., -e-specially in 'built-up areas where there are' many pedestrians. A person walking on the road does so at considerable rule.

LAB G1 TX ATTENDED Large oongregations filled; the ohurch for the inspiring services when Duff's United Church, Walton, observed the 75th anniversary of the founding of the congregation. Found- ed in 1865, this active congregation is observing this important milesjone of its history` on September 8th and 15th. The guest preacher on Sunday was the Rev. -M. C. MacDonald, of the Home Mission Board of the Unit- ed Chui-c'h, who brought timely and inspiring 'messages at both services. The morning congregation was mind- ful of the Empire :]ay of Prayer as it united with Christians throughout the British Empire in prayer of inter- (esslon. 'Rev. Frank A. Gilbert, min- ister of Duff's 'Church, conducted the services. The -theme of Mr. MacDonald's morning sermon was, "Indestructthte Forces of Civilizatioi•," the text be- ing Hebrews 12:27. The 'nesse.ge of the Hebrew prophet to his • fellow - countrymen -after the destruction of Jerusalem in .70 A.D., he said, is one filled with meaning for ,Ube Christian world today. There were forces in the Hebrew civilization that could not be destroyed by the pagan 'foe. What God has placed in His world cannot be destroyed. It ma.y b crashed for a time, but like Christ, has the power of resurrection. The Christian ohurch is a spiritual force in the .keeping of God, and it will survive all the up- heavals and catastrophies of history. Christians can take heart, because the resources of God are at their dis- rosal. •T,he evening subject was "The Dan- ger of Security.", Choosing for his text the command of ,;esus to His dis- ciples to launch out into the deep, Mr. MacDonald emphasized that what the Christian Gospel needs Is not se-• curity and protection, but adventure and proclamation. As Christians -and the Church launch oat with Cheat they become more effective as pawe:•s in the world. A register of vis.itois at the cervree contains, more than e hundred names, iniany cf them being for -mei- residents who returned to rental old .associa- tions with their former church hon.• :.' These included friends frcm Toronto, Hamilton, St. Thomas and many frcm less distant points. The services will continue next Sunday when L. Hussey, of Mitchell United ;0hurc•1, will be the preacher for the day and will conclude •with air anniversary supper on Tuesday, Sept. 17th. On •Monday evening the congrega- tion gathered for a social evening with many old friends in their midst. Among those present were two for- mer neinistef't of the church, -Rev. E. F. Chandler, o,f Kippen, and Rev. W. T. 'Maines, now in charge of the Til- bury United Church. Both brought mei:sages cf greeting, Mr. Chandler as chairman sof the Huron Presby'tery adding those of the Presbytery to his own. Letters of greetings were re- ceived from a number who were uh- able to• be present. These came frond points as distant es California, Colo- rado, Vancouver, Edmonton ands other Western points in Canada and the United States, as well 'as from those who reside nearer their' old home. A "nuteber of former ministers ' of the MethodiS.t Church in Walton and Duff's Church sent words' of greeting and recalled incidents= in their work dere.
