SERVICE B.A. Pastor of St. John's United Church Flesherton. Rev. Mr. Service was bom at Stay- ner, in Simcoe County. He was educated at Stayner continuation school, Barrie Collegiate, and gradu ated from Victoria College in 1929. He attended Emmanuel College from which he was ordained in 1932, taking his first charge at Kapuskasing, where he remained for four y«ars. During his college course he assisted Rev. E. Crossley Hunter in Carlton street United church, specializing in Sunday school and young people's work. In 1933 he was married to Miss Jean Cobb of Toronto, who is said by those who know to be a very able assistant to her husband in his church work. Judging from the wel- come accorded Rev. and Mrs. Service it is felt by many that a new era has dawned for St. John's United church in Flesherton. The .\dvance tenders its personal welcome to these good people and wishes for them a long and successful work in the Master's harvest field. Induction Of Pastor Two Cars Collide A collision of two motor cars oc- cured Thursday morning last one mile east of town on the Collingwood grav- el when a car, driven by Wilbert Jer- mey of Barrie, collided with that driv- en by Jacob Strencobsky of Brant- ford. The Jermey car was following a truck load of men coming from Barrie to seek work, which had stop- ped behind a hay rack to allow the Brantford car to pass when the Jer- mey car, travelling without brakes swung out from behind the truck and crashed into the oncoming car. The Brantford car turned completely over into the ditch and the Barrie car swung around the side of the road but did not turn over. None of the occupants of the cars were seriously injured, except for minor cuts and bruise.s. Both cars had their front ends considerably damaged from the force of the impact. The driver of the Barrie car did not have a permit to drive and is said to have been on relief and on his way to Flesherton to seek work with the King Paving Company. We under» stand a charge of reckless driving will be laid against Jermey, besides a charge of driving without a permit. The induction of Rev. Geo. R. Ser- vice into the pastorate of St John's United church circuit, including Cey- lon, was held in the church on Friday evening with a fair congregation. Rev. W. H. Smith of Durham inducted the new minister, while Rev. Heeney of Elmwood preached to the pastor and the congregation. Following the service the Ladies' Aid served lunch in the basement of tlie church. Short addresses were delivered by Messrs. Jo.». Blakely and A. Sinclaii and Mrs. E. C. Murray. Rev. J. R. Wolstencroft brought greetings to the new minister, from those outside the church. - Both services in St. John's church on Sunday were well attended and the new minister was well received by large congregations. His morn- insr sermon was based on Luke 17: 23, "The Kingdom of God is Within you," while at the evening service, the text was found in Phillipians 4: 13, "I can do all things through Christ which strongtheneth me." Big Plans For Picnic In Flesherton Aug. 3; On behalf of the Toronto Branch of the Flesherton Old Boys and Girls Association, I desire to thank our old friends in Flesherton for the kindly invitation to picnic there again on Civic Holiday, August 3, 1936. I also wish to thank the contingent from the Flesherton Branch of our Association who journeyed to Toronto on Thursday last and met jointly with our Committee in the Victoria Hotel to discuss arrangements. Invitations are being sent this week to all on our mailing list to at- tend the picnic and take in the ex- cellent program of Sporting events which is being arranged, which will include a hard-ball game between Flesherton and a team yet to be sel- ected, a bicycle race^ wrestling bout water sports, children's races, etc. In addition, it is proposed to secure a first class band to provide music for the large crowd expected, throughout the day. No effort will be spared to make this picnic the outstanding one from the standpoint of entertainment and attendance since "Old Home Week" celebration in 1929. and those who. by reason of a faulty mailing list, do not receive an in- vitation, are requested to accept the invitation herein tendered, bring theii children, friends and baskets, and meet the gang once more. To those in Toronto who lack trans- portation, we ask that they commun- icate with any of the officers listed below and no effort wil be spared to see that they are accommodated. Sim- ilarly, those in Toronto who can pos- sibly arrange to take anyone with them are urged to communicate this fact to the undersigned, stating how many can be accommodated and when they will leave Toronto in or- der that contacts can be made to swell the crowd from Toronto as much as possible. We are endeavouring to contact an outstanding clergyman from Toronto to take charge of the open air ser- vice on Sunday, with the assistance of the local ministers, and we trust this will also result in a large turn- out. Let us all pull together and en- deavour to surpass all previous re- cords for picnics in the Old Home Town. Watch The Advance for par- ticulars. â€"BURTON E. FIELD.

Of the 444 who were prepared for the examinations 107 were from the six urban centre schools, and of those 96 passed, or almost 90 per cent. Al- most all of those intend going U> High School. Of the- 337 from the rural schools, 241 passed, or 68 per cent. It is to be regretted that only a small per centage of those intend going on to High School. If transportation to one of the local High Schools could be provided a very large number of the rural children could arrange to attend.

HINTS FOR POULTRYMEN .The skill and expense involved in the production of eggs culminates in the market price obtained. The aim, therefore, siiould be to secure the highest price by preserving their freshness and quality. Eggs should be collected at least once daily, and; (luring very cold and very wermj weather collection should be made at' v.rton and night to avoid freezing or heating. I Eggs should be taken at once to a cool cellar where there is a fairly low temperaturo. It may be advisable i to open one or two windows and sub- stitute screens covered with cheese- I'loth for ventilation and to carry off excessive moisture or odour. Dirty eggs should be cleaned with coarse sandpaper, but not washed. Stains may be removed with a little vinegar on a clean tloth. Wa.'ihing eggrs des- troys the protective coating and low- ers the grade. Deep, romny nests provided for the hens will reduce breakage. Clean pine shavings have proved the best nest material. Shavings facilitate cleaning and form a better cushion in the nest than hay or cut straw. At this season of the year shells are more likely to be brittle and contents of poorer quality due to hair eraoks and so called "grass" or dark yolks, and careful candling Is advisable If the best prices are to be obtained.

Mc.A.rthur of Markdale was nominated to uphold the Liberal cause in the next Provincial election, at a meeting at Durham last week. It was not expected that a Liberal candidate would be entered, due to the support that F. R. Oliver, M.L.A.. ac- corded the Liberal party in the Legis- lature the past session. There is time, however, before the election for the Liberal candidate to gracefully retire and throw his suppor to Mr. Oliver. This will be the likely pro- cedure when the time arrives.

Even should he detect the shortage he could prob- ably get no redress, for the vendor guilty of snch practices sells "by the bag" rather than by weight and thus protects himself against diarges of misrepresentation.
