br t4te~man "Durham County's Qreat Fctmily Journal"l VOLUME 95 BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO, TEURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 22nd, 1949 6c PER COPY NMER3 T'HE newly elected president of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association, Roy M. Bean, of Waterloo, Ont., is shown at right in this picture taken on the grounds of Jasper Park Lodge in the Canadian Rockies during the national convention.j Left ta ight arc C. J.

McClure Gives Challenging Address on Conditions in China Dr. R. B. McClure, or Bob Mr. Cluré as he is known to aimasi everyone, medical missionary oý China, was guest speaker on Sun. day morning at St. PauFs United Church for the annual Thank- offering service of the Evening Auxilîary. Dr. McClure who lef China iast Christmas because of famiiy rnatters which required his attention, is practising medi- cine in Toronto at the present time. In bis accustomed vivid man- ner Dr. McClure brought an in- spiring and thought-provoking message to his listeners, based on the text "Ye are the sait of the earth". We live, lie stated, in an era of "cold% war" *hen the people of the world are being bombarded with the idealogies of non-Christian and undemocra- tic countries, and we must fight back with the saine weapans or lose out. [t is aur mission as Christians, as "the sait of the earth", to shaPe the ideas of the the aftermath of war. Dr. WcClure believes, one does flot find that the condition of the countries involved depends on whether they were on the win- ning or the losing side, but on whether they were among the hit. or the flot bit. Being a citizen of a war-devastated nation doeg soniething ta the minds of its people which is much harder ta mend than broken bodies. The Goveroment forces in China failed, flot from lack of arms, but because the Govern- ment had failed to iive up to tho hopes and promises which had ibuoyed up the peaple during eight long years of war; they failed be- cause the soldiers did not know wbat tbey were fighting for. The people's thinking has been throwni into confusion. Inflation, about wh ich one could tell endless funny stonies, Dr. McClure said and about which he did tel two, has contributed to~ this confusion. It ba4resu Ited iný the casting out of m~ai principles and the raising, .- up of the black markete-cr. It has ;t resuited in the honest Principal Sof the Norman College in Han- -kowv who is tryiog to influence his students to live by moral rules -of conduct, having one suit witl the elbows patched, standing with 't his feet on the cernent 'because his fshaes have no soles, and watching Ithe attention of bis class being -distracted by the bl ck marketeer ,t driving by in his biý black sedan. These students are not duli. They -draw ther own conclusions fron2 -the evidence before them. Z On the bare his that have 1been Ieft in these devastatec Ecountries, what ideas will be re- Iplanted, Dr. McClure challenged? Shal we let others interested in planting their twisted ideas pro- sceed unmolested, or shall we es- *tablish there truth, justice and tliberty? This is not a difficuit task but an easy one, because ta people whlo have so littie, any cojicrete action or gesture of help loams large in comparison. Dr. McClure's true stories to il- lustrate bis points were fascinat- ing, and nana more so than the onp told primarily for the chul- dren of the congregation, about Jimmy. Jimmy was a fourteen year old wild boy from a primi- tive tribe living in the moun- tans o! the&Hump" with a run- ning sare* in his leg. Ha was per- suaded by Dr. McClure and bis assistants to corne to the hospital and after being helped and same- what tamed in the pracess, he in turo helped twenty-two Allied airmen to safety, thus putting loto successful effect the plan whicb the big brass' refused ta assist. Dr. McClure from his personal experience. paid tribute ta the swift and dapendable service ren- dered ta the mission doctors and hospitais by the Women's organi- zations of the United Church. The service, in the absence of a resident minister at St. Paul's, was canducted by Mr. Alex Mc- Gregar, the Acting Clerk of Ses- sion.1 Author-Journalists Have Chosen Dowmansville For Their Home "Bowmanville is the mast at.

Plans Being Made For Pheasant Hunt On November 4 - 5 The bunters of Darlington Township will have their chance at the pheasants a! the area on November 4 and 5 this year, these days having been set aside as the ofticial open season on pheasants. In 1948 the Township Council passed A by-law confcning with the Closed Area Wild Gamhe Act, which decrees that there shaîl be, nio hunting or shooting o! game in the Township, autside o! speci- fied dates.

In order ta participate in the pheasant hunt, bath residents and non-rasidents will have ta take out licenses, which may ha ob- tained at a date ta be annaunced hater, from any o! the eight local game wardens: Herman Swcet- man, Courtice; Livingston Miller, Hampton; Howard Milison, RR 1, Bawmanville; Tom Wilbur, RR 1, Enniskillen; Art Wilson, Ennis- killen, Harold Milîs, Enniskihlen;1 Harold Skinner, Tyrone; Wallace Pascoe, RR 2, Burketoo. For the 1949 season five phea- sant pens and appraximately 1000i pheasants bave been set out in vamious parts a! the township, en-3 tailing considerable work and ex- pense.
