No service on Sunday, August 14. Sunday School at 11 a.m, Everybody welcome. Requiescat! Prince Albert lost one of her oldest and most esteemed residents 'in the death, on Friday, August b, of Sarah J. Madden, eldest daughter of the late Rev, David B. Madden, a pioneer minister of the Methodist church. Miss Madden was born at Gananoque, but spent most of her life in Ontario County in the various pastorates of her father, and for many years prior to her death had lived in Prince Al- bert. As the eldest daughter in a large family to the younger members of which she was almost a second mother, her. primary work was in the home. Yet she found time and energy for outside activities in Church, Sunday School, and the W.C.T.U.--she wore her life-membership pin of this Order as she lay in her casket. A faithful and regular attendant at Church even when increasing deafness made it im- possible for her to hear much of the service, she nevertheless felt, as she said, that it was good to be "in the Lord's house." She was, indeed, a pattern of an old-time religion that seems to be passing or to have passed away. Her most fruitful and far-reaching ki \ [20 PR {4 LOE Va 7.)

In this sphere of work her mantle seems to, have fallen upon the shoulders of her younger sister May, who now teaches the women's Bible Class in the Prince Albert Sunday School and teaches it so efficiently that it is a common remark among the members that, if they had to choose between attending it and the church service, they would almost rather miss the latter than the former, because, as they say, "We learn so much from May Madden." Of a family of twelve children only five now survive, two half-sisters and three half-brothers of the deceased: Miss May Madden of Prince. Albert; Mrs, Fred W. Kimg (Clara Madden) of Lethbridge; Rev. Fred W. Madden of Bloomington, Ill.; George A. Mad- den of Glendale, Cal., and Rev. Nelles Madden of La Harpe, Ill. The funeral service, which was held on Monday, August 8, was conducted by Rev. John Murray and Rev. Walter Madden, a nephew of the deceased. There could scarcely have been a fam- ily in and about Prince Albert which was not represented, a worthy tribute to a worthy life. Port Perry, too, was well represented, Dr. J. B. Lundy, Mr. W. L. Parrish and the family physi- cian, Dr. Harper, being among those present, The service was marked by an entire absence of the funereal note. Hymns were sung, but they were not starring BARBARA STANWYCK and HERBERT MARSHALL and Swiss Miss StarringLaurel and Hardy, TAL tooth? No . . . howl in your radio! Let us give your radio a com- - plete "check up". We will lo- cate the trouble and cure it! The cost is small. And you'll be sure mournful dirges; a very happy selec- tion of Bible passages was read, rang- ing from the Psalmist's cheery "Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil", to the Master's words of com- fort, "Let not your hearts be troubled" and St. Paul's defiant challenge to Death, not Victor but Vanquished, and finally to St. John's vision of the Celestial City where "there is no night" and whence "sorrow and sigh- ing shall flee away." Very impres- sive, too, was the concluding note of the service by the quotation of what is commonly known as Cardinal New- man's prayer (though the authorship is disputed), a prayer familiar to all (and there must be many in Port Perry and Prince Albert) who listen in during the winter months to the Sun- day evening broadcast of Rev, J. E. Ward of St. Stephen's Church, Toron- to: "Oh Lord, support us all the day long o fthis troublous life until the shades lengthen and the evening comes and the busy word is hushed, the fever of life is over and our work is dome. Then, Lord, in Thy mercy grant us safe lodging, a holy rest, and peace at the last, through Jesus Christ, our Lord." Could anything be more comprehen- sive or more beautiful than this prayer, or more fitting to be said at the funeral of one who, after over four score years of a life of almost unremitting and always uncomplain- ing toil, has at last entered into her rest? \ BR A: .-- --ry',utiR IN MEMORIAM MacMASTER--In loving memory of Dr. J.

RUSSIA AND JAPAN AGREE TO ARMISTICE Both official and unofficial Japan are paying the greatest attention to For- eign Minister Viscount Halifax's con- versations with the Soviet Ambassa- dor and the Japanese Embassy repre- sentative in London. The Government refuses to comment, but the Japanese press doubts whether Great Britain will offer to mediate. Hirosi Saito's "interview with U, S. Secretary of State Cordell Hull and the Franco-German conversations are also 'prominently featured by press. The War Office states that Soviet attacks since Tuesday at sundown are continuing almost uninterruptedly, but the Japanese are holding all their positions. There are about two Soviet battalions "at Changkufeng, where some of the troops are within fifty metres of each other, the rest being within hand grenade distance, which weapon is profusely used, plus light (continued on page five) A.
