G. S. Gervan chose Psalms 33 and 72 for his Scripture lessons iy based his remarks on verses 12 and 8 respéctively, "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance--He shall have dominion also from sea to sea and from the river, unto the ends of the earth." Mr. Gervan told how, when the Fathers of Confederation were considering a name for the united provinces, one of them reading Psalm 72 was gspeially impressed with verse eight and telling his associates, they all agreed that "dominion" was the word most suitable to the occasion, The address was ver, eresting. Mr, Gervan touched briefly 'on the pioneer days and customs and the gradual grouth of the country and the changes or the better in the manner of living, as the years sped on. Gas rationing is the cause of many summer pleasures being cancelled, The annual Sunday School pienic will not be held. this year unless some other mode of transportation is used than the automobile, It was suggested that wagons and "Dobhin" be-employed as in the years before cars were dreamed of. It was the custom then to deco: rate the waggons with evergreen boughs until they resembled small groves. The picnickers, with well filled baskets, were thus sheltered from the hot rays of the sun and en- joyed a hilarious ride to picnic grove. Tables and benches were unknown at a picnic in those days, When it came near the time to eat, the mothers and young 'women spread snowy white cloths on a cleared shady space 'and all sat on the grass around the long "table" to partake of.the abugdance of good things that boys an 3 . rls |- Eyes Examined Glasses complete, or lenses only, supplied where necessary, at reasonable prices,-- I.

Harry Gervan left on Mon- day for Yorkton, Sask., after a happy furlough of twelve days with his par- ents and sister, The following extracts are from a recent letter from one of the boys Overseas. "Things have been quite lively here for sometime but at present we are enjoying a spell of quiet. It was a continual sight of planes, fighters and bombers, night and day, for a while, passing over us to the other side. A little further off the action and search- lights at night, were worth sceing. The Niagara Falls illumination has nothing on these operations and we get the noise thrown in. The heavy bombing of some weeks ago did ter- rible damage to many historical towns. I have visited a few of them and - saw the destruction caused to sonie of the fine old cathedrals and other noted buildings. have their bronze plates, on which are engraved long lists of historical events. It seems a pity that these wonderfully preserved old buildings should suffer such destruction , ... I was recently up to the Midlands where the population is most crowded and saw the effect of the rationing. The housewives stand in long lines at the rationing depots and wait their turn for supplies... . . While in Lon- don a short time ago : 's aunt gave me a portable radio and it sure entertains us all.
