Our greatest need in this machine age is not so much ne-.v political or nPw economic systems as new men j and women to rtm them. This was the thought contained in Rev. A. G. Mac- pherson's sermon last Sunday. The human factor, not the machine, he said, holds the key to man's welfare and happiness. Man's ability to pro- duce honest business, good govern- mnet, a just social order and a peace- ful world, requires a radical change in his nature. In answer to the fre- quent qiue&tion "Can human nature change?" the speaker reminded his hearers thatyjfify 'God can change human nature. "Except a man be born from above, he cannot see the Kit^dom of God." Here lies our great hope. God not only caii, but has changed men and women. Out- standing examples were given: Mlar\- Magdalene, St. Paul, St. Frances .>f Assist and Frederick Charrington. who was transformed from the self- cenu-ed heir of brewery millions t,, a seif-denying Christian and servant of his fellowmeu. Mr. Macpherson's next sermon is "What counts most in being a Christ- ian." The flowers gracing the front .of the church were in loving memory of Mr. John Stewart, for many years a faithful worshipper and Elder jf St. John's.

OPEN SEASON FOR PEER IN ARTEMESIA Durham Took Series From Flesherton Juniors Durham made sure in no uncertain way of victory in the semi-tinal of the junior basebali series in the fourth game played here Monday night when they defeated our young- sters 19-6 in a weird ball game. In the first two innings Durham scored 16 runs and after that the locals tightened up and only allowed th'-te rUns, while gathering six, but the lead was too large to catch. They put up a plucky resistance and from the third inning it was a good game. It was a disappointment to many fans that they could not go further in "iia series, but they played well for tho Irst year at the ga^ne. The*i- coaches Murray Juffs, at the start, and then Jack MacLean and Geo. Ralph, de- Serve a great deal of credit for t le time they spent in teaching the boyr some of the finer points of ball. Next season is another year and w? hope to see them in there again. It is a pleasure to again have baseball being played locally.
