mail the baptist church the baptist church a dainty brick building- with a tall- spire is situated on main street west a location both pleasing and prominent and was erected in 1869 the interior- has been beautifully decorated recently and is now attractive as well as comfortable its first pastor was the rev dr perret now of chicago the present pastor is the rev a e st dalmas an able preacher and faithful labourer in the masters vineyard the church has a flourishing young peoples- union and sunday school and is in hearty sympathy with the various departments of christian work owing to its elevated site it was found impossible to secure a satis factory view of the tall spired edifice church of christ this society commonly known as disciples wor ships in a substantial brick structure situated at the western terminus of wesley street but so environed as to render illustration next to impossible it has a seat ing capacity for nearly 300 sufficiently ample for the congregation the society was organized on the 1 7th of march 1891 under the ministrations of mr w d campbell and consisted of about forty members it has been in a healthy and progressive condition from its inception mr john munro b a of the toronto uni versity is the present pastor st josephs rc church st joseph a roman catholic church is a solid stone edifice erected in i 883 at a cost of nearly 4000 under the supervision of the jesuit fathers at guelph from whence the pulpit is supplied regularly twice a mtjnth in addition to which there are special services on holy days the congregation numbers about 200 souls t poor foreign relations it would not be surprising if the american gov ernment administered a stern rebuke to he company which sponsors the bob hope broadcast in fact the united nations itself might well concern itself about the implications involved in a broadcastlast week from korea from every angle the broadcast was one which never should have been aired and the fact that it was recorded therr rebroadcast over a large network of american radio stations makes it even less excusable for there was plenty of time for the censors to step in and delate the objectionable material from a world standpoint the moat shocking fjjfct was that mr- hjppe and his company attempted to tell the american public and the world at iprge that the united states wpuld not lie long iri reaching harbent manchuria which as every one knows has no more con nection with koea thanmexico has with canada we hate to think what use iravda might make of these in- sinuationswrong as they may be jn how about the united nations perhaps mr hope needs some education in what the korean war is ail about we are not a keen student of foreign affairs but to dateif has been our under standing that the united nations which comprises a vast number of countries in the world voted withone major dissenter russia to take police action against the korean communists for invading their southern countrymen who favoured a different type of govern- ment y the united states by virtue of its geographic and cconpmic location has taken a leading role in this pol ice action and an american general macarthur is com mander in chief of the united nations forces but it is most important to remember that it is the united nations and not the united states which is tak ing action we are told by supposedly wellinformed sources that words are among the most important wea pons in the coldwar we are putting an ace up the communist sleeve when we allow him to think the states is fighting a personal war and is heading for manchuria it is such thoughtless action which makes the task of united nations even more difficult a matter of taste listening to the show there was something not quite right in the numerous commercials which were inserted for the sponsoring company chesterfield cig arettes we would be the first to disagree with those who sa that a sponsors time should be limited but this was once when the product coujd hne been softpedalled with definite advantage one could hardly help won dering if the whole terrible war wat not being waged on behalf of the sale of cigarettes a pity too for there can be no doubt of the good intentions of the company in spending a large sum of mone to send the entire i lope company complete with orchesra to korea and i- arm hoklm since we installed oar

to do something for the men who are doing so much for us what sponsors or artists failed to realize is that you can make jpkes about war and battles to soldier themselves but it is poor taste to make them from the scene of battle for the edification of civilians in the comfort of their hdrnes so it was that jokes about seoul changing hands so many times that you paid for a pur- chase in yen and got your change in roubles and about calling a retreat a strategic withdrawal find in the midst of file comedy the introduction of an airforceman to tell about bombjng enemy troops a few hours before

european tbur can do so at norval next wednesday mr stewart has a grand voice which thrilled in such numbers as tostfs goodbye and shortnin bread and generous applause proved him a favourite with george town audiences there was only one discordant note which we hope mr stewart can overcome before set ting forth into wider horizons between numbers he went through mouth and throat xontottions to loosen up the vocal chords which necessary as they may be to- produce full rich notes would be better done in leas conspicous fashion six to eight inches or snow in chesley sunday morning made us
