Minis- ters Participate "This is ne longer. an armistice service but a gathering for re- membrance," stated Rev. J. E. Griffith in his addresa at the mem- orial service Tuesday. "We are tee aware of the present danger. Rather it is a time for seieus and prayerful remembrance." Speaking thoughtfully te the large audience which met in the town hall auditorium for the No- vember 1 lth service Mr. Griffith considered the meaning of this day. It la only a faint receilection for some after twenty-tarec years but fer others the names o! the fallen are pressed red on their hearts. The recurring years can net bring any ease te their sense o! loss, he said. "Always when passing the cenotaph I note again the words inscribed thereon: "They gave their today for our temorrow" Mr. Griffith said. "We cen hardly comprchend the immensity of the losses in the Great War-twenty six million died-I picture them as a vast army o! marching men, as de aIl those te whom remem- brance day brings again the tragic experiences o! that war. .,My seul hath them la remembrance and la bowed down'." The speaker rccalled how he steed in front of the tewn hall more than twenty-five years age when a local unit was leaving town for battle. The faita of these men was that they were fighting a war te end war, hie declared. To- day aur men fight for a different faith. They fight a war te end falsehood, destruction on a na- tional scale, deceit, cruelty on a vast plane we can hardly realize. Their faith la different but alse noble. Held inaide because o! chrnl winds, many atiended the service. Public and High Scheels pupila, Girl Guide&, members e! the Legion and ex-service men., ail United la commen prayers for the fallen e! the Great War. Cernetist Laurie Hart vcny ably led the assembly la the singing of the old hymns "O God Our Help In Ages Past" and l'O, Valant Hearts."1 Reeve ýAlex Edniondstone read the namea on the Honour Roll o! the men o! tais district whe fela n action or have since died. 1 After the service represent- I New D.T. Office. The E. S. Senkier residence on Beech Ave. has been taken over by the Ontario Govern- ment to provide office accom- modation for officiais of the Boys' Training School. Work will continue for placement officers and some others of the B.T.S. staff, and tempor- arily, at least, they will make their quarters in Bowman- ville. Use of this particular resîdence is greeted wlch much satisfaction. A rumor that the J. W. Alexander mansion is to be used for a similar purpose seems to be unfounded.

No Convention At last I have seen it happen in Canada. Perhaps In an unexpect- ed place but that makes it much more important. It was not donc son the spur e! the moment, it was -net accompanie'd by undue flag wavlag nor by steam relier meta- aoda. It was accomplished by nea- rsened argument and passionate appeals by beth men and women !rom every section o! Canada. It awas an ideal that grew and ex- panded and as it passed fnom man te man and from woman to we- 1man it was shaped and fashioned, rubbed and polished until it lay glistcning like a bright new jcwel in our national political structure. New it la aur job te keep it from becoming tarnlahed. Let me start fnom the beglnlg. The Executive o! the Dominion Conservative Association wa s summoned to meet at the Par- liament Buildings la Ottawa on November 7th, for the purpose of arranging the time and place for a Natienal Convention te choose 1a leader. The executive censistcd e!o about 175 members represent- lag eveny province in the Domi- ion la proportion te the number o! federal ridings. very f ew werc missing and ail paid their own ex- penses. At the eutset the convention idea was assailed as being im- practicable and 'nevcrting te old methods o! political strategy when decisive and imniediate action was se terrjbiy needed. A large con- vention withalal its attendant ex- pense, publicity build-up, conven- tion. hilanity, constant challenging and clashes o! opposing factions in the midst o! the present cnisis just would net; stand up in the light o! actual realities and ne one seriously uphcld the idea once its weakness was made apparent by some very strong pleas led by grand old veterans like Hon.

Arthur Meighen In announcing his acceptance of the leadership of the Conservative Party makes this comment: "We can have one great object, and only one-to reinspire and re- invigorate the war effort o! our country in every sphere and every phase, to light into flaming life the war spirit of our people, the resolve to do or die." eut an argument that Rt. Hon. Arthur Meighen was the only man in public life with par- liamentary skiil, ability and ex- perience to fîli the breach now existîng in the opposition, and that above everything else at the moment thia country needed and demanded that some strong and compelling voice be raised la the House of Commons to compel more and quicker action fromn the present government. On Friday ahl day and far into the night the debate went on and hour by hour this new idea was ,«eacily being fashioned by veter- ans like those already mentioned and younger men like George Drew, Earl Lawson, several from Quebec, the Maritimes and West- ern Canada.

The prognam, distlactly histoni- cal ana educational in form, de- picted the landing of John Cabo' at Aspby Bay in Cape Breton anc the gnowth of. civilization fronm that period. Chaniplain's Habita- tion, with the research work of many historians and architects, has been restored in its entirety with amazing accurateneas as tc aize and equipment. Dr. Williams was present for 7the opening caremony o! this his- 1torical spot Mf Nova Scotia lasi summer. His description of this habitation was !ascinating in its wealth o! fact-even the type of shingle was duplicated a!ter long seanching-finally !ound in Pic- ardy, France. Without glass at that time. buck skin was stretched acroas the panes, and consider- able light entered the reems. An mnteresting fact was the disclosure that approximately 8 inches of eanth is added te the earth's sur- face in one hundred years. Facts such as these must be taken into acceunt in the search for relics under the earth's surface. Champlain's 'journey thnough the Georgian Bay district, and his sbrine at Midland were reviewed. The beautiful natural color of these slides was most outstanding. Listening te the comments on this program, the consensus o! opinion seemed te be that for exquisite celering of scene, and educational value the presentation could net be surpassed. Slides o! Cartwright were aise shown. A tribute te N. S. Louise Davidson was paid during the evening when the crewd stood in respect for her unselfish services overseas. A telegram sent by her in thanks fer S.S. No. V's recent parcel and letters was read by Dr. Williams. Principal R. P. Allin, M.A., e! Blackstock Continuation Scheol, voiced the appreciatien of the schools for the splendid pnegram given by Dr. Williams. An interesting event o! the ev- ening was the draw made fer a cushion given by Cedardale Pub- lic School. Inspecter T. R. Mc- Ewen held the lucky ticket and donated the article for auction. Mrs. L.
