ROBERT PHILP' (nee Mary Eliza Wright) The funeral services for Mrs. Robert Philp were cenducted at Burketon. on March 28, by ber pastor, Rev. James Plant, En- niskillen, assisted by Rev. D. M. Stinson, Blackstock and Rev. Dr. C. J. R. Bates, nepbew of Mr. Philp. After a short service at the bouse for the immediate relatives and friends, at which Dr. Bates spoke briefly but feelingly, the remains were taken to the church which soon became filled to ca- pacity. Pastor, Rev. James Plant, took for bis text: "Death is swallowed Up inl vîctory-Thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory". (1 Corinthians 15:54,57). We give a synopsis o! bis sermon. This word "victory" is a com- mon word, being used today in connection witb the great struggle going on in ail parts o! the world. It is being associated with con- quering armies, treading down and crusbing beneath their feet innocent and helpless men, women and cbildren, to say noth- ing o! valuable homes, churches, bospitals and cathedrals, that are being reduced to a heap of ashes. This is what some people cal "victory" today, and at its best, it is only a material and a tem- porary affair. This present world is fast passing away, "and the lust thereof " but he that doetb the will o! God, shall abide forever." Jesus, would lead our thougbts away from this material, fleet- ing universe in which thousands are struggling, suffering and dy- ing, and He points us to some- tbing whicb. is indestructible, and which fadeth not away. He speaks to us o! mansions, wbich are eternal in the Father's home. The apostie Paul tells us, "Tbough the outward man perish, the inward man shaîl be renewed day by day." Jesus says: "Fear not them 'which kilh the body, but are noi able te kill the soul"; and "What shaîl it profit a man if he gai. the whole world, and lose his own soul?"' "Victory" in conquering this world, woùld be of no value to any one o! us, if we lest our own souls; but the "Victory" in con- nection with this letter o! Paul's to Corinth, is a victory over sin, and deatb, and the grave; and this "victory" bas been aqcomplisbed by tbe Son o! God-tbe Saviour nf Maxlkind-and we shaîl be cele- brating this "victory" very soon at what we cail Easter. Jesus came to this earth. not to destroy, but to save, not to be ministered unto, but te minister and te give His if e a ransom for many, not to condemn, but to for- give, and to beal, and to save. "Because I live, ye shahl live also" -He who is the ligbt and life of men, bas gained for us, and gives to us the "1victory". And bis is the kind of "victory" whicb bas, at ast, come to our de. parted sister, Mrs. Pbilp. She bas won tbrough, she has finisbed ber course, she bas won ber race, she bas fougbt ber good !igbt of faith. In the short time I bave been acquainted with ber, she ai- ways impressed, me as one Who loved her home, her church, atÀ which she was always present, and the community in which she lived. She neyer had a great deal to say, and she always seemed to guard against saying anything that would be better lef t un-said. (I would to God we could al learn that lesson). I presume she had her faults and failings, like the rest of us, who is there that hasn't? No man lived his life on this earth in all its perfect entire- ty. But she belonged to that class who strove to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with her God, and God does flot expect any more than that from any one of His children. Justice, love, mercy, and Com- panionship with God will at last give to us the "victory" and "The, crown of eternal glory". After ail, my friends, thèse physical bodies of ours are but the temporary dwelling places of the soul. I feel that we cannot em- phasize this fact too much, and there is nothing in this world that can destroy them. You may shoot this body of mine to pieces, riddle it through and through with bullets; but you cannot touch one particle of the life of God within - the soul, that which ex- presses itself through the physi- cal members of the body, for that belongs to God and eternity. It came from Hlm and it will return to Him. When the last remnant of that which is Physical and material in this world has been crushed and destroyed, and one thing that will live on, and on, and on, is the life of God within the souls of men. That, and that alone is eternal, and will continue to grow, and to *develop, and to mature, until we reach the "full measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ", and we shahl see Him face to face and become like Him. I I Obituary William A. Bain William A. Bain, Toronto, a brother-in-law of Dr. G. W. Tre- win, Oshawa, dentist, died at his home, 77 Westmount Avenue, on Aprii lst, after a short illness. )eath was due to a heart ailment. The late Mi.

TAKE SERIAL NUMBERS Car owners, if they are wise, will make a note of ail tire serial numbers at once, and file the in- formation with the engine num- ber and ignition key numbers for future use. There is bound to be a wave of tire thefts, and the owner has some chance at least of recovering the tires if he can supply the serial numbers to po- lice. Oh, yes, bar the garage doors on the inside, and put a stout lock on the other door of the building, and, 'etter stili, if you have a dog, let him sleep in the garage. ...DEPNDAB8 FUSTREGT VALUES ON SALE THURSDAY, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY-APRIL 9th, lOth, llth We reserve the right te limit quantities on ail items f0 normal weekly family requirements. er 111 FDOMINION DREAD 2 24-oz.Ic Loaves1 s Manning's Cream Tea Sandwich BISCUITS lb 19c DOMINION PEANUT iBUTTE Slb. 2.5c AYLMER CATSUP 14-oz.
