NEWS, OF WEEK
IN HENSALL
Remembrance Day service was 'held
in St. Paul's Anglican Church Sunday
afternoon 'under the auspices of th'e
Exeter-Hensall branch of the Cana-
dian Legion. The veterans marched
to the church in a body under direc-
tion of Comrade Peter McNaughton,
assisted by Comrade Sydney MacAr-
thur. The banners were . carried by
Comrades W. C. Stone, A. E. Clark
and W. Parker.
The church was 'lovely with beauti-
ful autumn flowers, while flags in the
archway represented many Allied Na-
tions. A two -minute silence was ob-
served and Last Post and Reveille
sounded by Bugler L. -Cpl. Fred Beer,
of London.
Rev. M. A. Hunt, Rector of Trivitt
Memorial Church, Exeter: and of St.
Paurs Anglican Church, Hensall, gave
the memorial address, choosing for.
his theme, Revelations, 7th, chapter,
9th verse: "After this I beheld, and
lo, a great multitude, which no man
could number, of all nations, and kin-
dreds, and people, and tongues, stood
before the throne, and before the
Lamb, clothed with white robes and
palms in their hands." In a most in-
spiring and appropriate address, Mr.
Hunt stated that it always gave him
so much joy to address the veterans.
He paid high tribute to General Mont-
gomery, _Alexander, WaveIl and oth-
ers, as great ;nen. He quoted, if Bri-
tain and her Allies get into Germany
first, there will be no more war for
our children, their children and their
children, as Britain stands for liberty
and justice. We are all fighting for a
glorious peace, and nothing can be a
stieeess without; God; no battle can
be won without faith and prayer.
Prayers win wars and victories.
The choir, with Miss Ethel' Clark
at the console, rendered an appropri-
ate anthem.
At the cenotaph wreaths were plac-
ed as follows: Province of Ontario,
Mrs. Minnie 'Sangster; Village, Reeve
E. R. Shaddick; Legion, Sgt. Scotty
