PAG.E ELEvzK The One Hundredth Anniver- SarY of The Parish of Cartwright was observed in St. John's An- glican Church, Biackstock, on SundaY and Monday, August 27th and 28th. A brie! history of the Church and Parish was published in this paper recently. To mark the Centenary of the Parish, es- sential renovation to ail Church property was carried out during RIe Past summer. On Sunday morning at 1l o'ciock the renovated and rede- corated St. John's Church was offlcialiy re-opened by the Rt. Rev. G. A. Wells, M.A., D.D., G.M.G., V.D., Assistant to the ]Bishop of Toronto. The Church Was filed, to capacity, and a large number of people remained outside throughout the service. The interior of the Church has a simple dignity and an atmos- phere of worship 'and reverence, created as a resuit of the devoted labour o! members of the congre- gation who carried out the reno- Vation work. Beautiful flowers tastefully decorated the building, given by members and friends of the Parish, and placed on this particular occasion in honour o! ail Rectors, Officiais and Mem- bers o! the Parish who, during Staff ord Bros.

During the service the beauti- fui new Chancel Panelling and Oak Choir Screen were dedicated by the Bishop 'tTo the Glory o! God," as the gift o! members and friends a! the Parish. Im- mediately after the Act o! Dedi- catian the Doxology was sung. The Bishop then administcred the Rite o! Confirmation, when six- teen candidates were presented by the Rector, the Rev. George Nicholson. Those present for confirmation were: Shirley Ham- ilton, Ruth Hamilton, Jessie Mc- Arthur, Betty McArthur, Mrs. Bessie Crawford, Mrs. Betsy Stan- iiand, Mrs. Frances Fee, Mrs. Annie Fee, 'Fred Carter, Law- rence McLaughlin, Donald Green, Heber McLean, Brian Hamilton*r, Allen Rahm, Neill Bailey and Philip Langfeid. The Bishop brought ta the con- gregation a message from the Bishop o! Toronto, cangratuiated them an the achievements o! their Centenary Year, and during his address ta the Confirmation Candidates spake o! the urgent need in these days, in every de- partment o! life, and especiaily in the Church, o! the spirit o! willing obedience, devotian, and self - sacrifice; emphasised t h e steady influence o! the Church for gaod, thaugh often. unseen and unacknowledged; and painted out the deplarabie conditions o! life where religion is neglected or surpressed. Evening service was held in St. John's Church at 7:30 p.m., con- ducted jointly by the Rev. J. H. Kidd, Rector o! the Parish fromn 1907 ta 1917, and the present Rector. The lesson was read by the Rev. Earl Sigston, Rector o! St. John's Anglican Church, Bowmanviile. The speciai preach- er was the Rev. John McKibbon, -Rector o! Christ Church, Camp- beilford, who was Rectar o!

Rev. McKibbin took for bis theme the incident o! Moses turn- ing aside ta sec the spectacle o! the Burning Bush, and there be- ing addressed by Aimighty God, Who announced Himseif as: "~The God o! thy Fathers, the God o! Abraham, Isaac a nd Jacob." Pointing out the faithfulness o! God ta these di!! erent types o! men, and marking the same God's !aithfuiness ta the Parish o! Cartwright during its anc hun- dred years o! life, he emphasised the fact that the achievements o! this Centenary Year, great as they are, must flot be looked upon as an end, but -as the beginning o! greater things in the service o! God. As at the mornîng service, the Church was filled ta capacity, many being seated outside. A receptian was held afterwards on the rectary lawn, when Rev. and Mrs. McKibbin and their small daughter Margaret were assured once again o! the warm good wishes and happy remembrances o! their former parishioners. Up- wards o! 300 people partook o! the refreshments provided by the Woman's Auxiliary. Oid friends and members o! the aid Cart- wright families gathered from far' and near on this speciai oc- casion, and enjoyed much talk o! the past, the present, and the future. On Monday, August 28th, cele- M s ji brations continued, with bal games in the afternoon, organized by Dr. J. A. McArthur, when Mr. Dick Davison brought lads from Nesieton and umpired Nestieton and Biackstock teams. A splen- did supper was provided by the Woman's Auxiliary, when some 300 persans ate with evident ap- preciatian of the variety of gaod things served. This was faiiow- ed by an excellent three-haur motion picture programme, suit- ed to ail tastes. The special feature of the even- ing was the shawing of Koda- chrome slides of the men o! the Parish at work on the renovation of the Church and Rectory, fol- lowed by the saund film hymn "Faith of Our Fathers" in the singing of which the audience heartily joined. The highiight of the evening was a presentatian on behaîf o! the 'Parish, to Of- ficers o! the Church and members of the Renovation Committee and warking party, in appreciatian of their services, and to mark this Centenary Year.

The Chairman o! the evening was Creighton P. Devitt, Rector's 'Warden, whose father, John H. De- vitt, was the original committee responsible for the building oitthe present St. John's Church, Black- stock, in 1876. In his usual efficient and êourteous manner Mr. Devitt guided the Centenary celebrations to their close in the singing of the National Anthem. Truckers Write Federal Members The foiiowing is a letter sent ta ail members off the House o! Commomns by A. H. Muir, Presi- dent o! the Canadian Automotive Transportation Association. "Ifi there was any further need a! proof that truck transportation is an integral and indispensable part o! aur economic lite, this cur- rent transportation crisis should resolve it once and for ail ... and it shouid demonstrate with unmistakabie clarity the threat- ening implications o! Federal con. trol o! highway transportation. This national transportation cm- ergency wouid have been a na- tional disaster if the trucking in- dustry had not been free ta play its full and right!ul part in the nation's business. It would be foliy ta jeapardize Canada's economic lîfe in these critical years by denying the mo- tor transport industry its naturai growth. The recommendations o! the railways in respect ta meeting motor transport campe- tition are ecanamically unsound and poiitically undemacratie. Al o! Canada Stands ta lase if the Federai Government assumes con- trol of highway transportation and inevitably proceeds ta legis- late it out o! existence in re- sponse ta pressure of raiway management and labour. Ail public-spirited Canadians deplore the unhappy state of a!- fairs precipitated by the railway strike. The members o! the Can- adian Automotive Transportation Association aiong with millions o! other citizens hope that it wili be resaived as speedily and as amn- icably as possible. In the mean- time, the members o! aur pro- vincial trucking associations are taxing every resaurce at their command ta supply aur people with the necessities a! life and ta keep the wheeis a! agriculture and industry roiling. We wouid be rerniss in aur responsibîlity ta the Canadian people if we did otherwise. If and when Canada's trans- Powtation probiems camne before the House o! Commons we appeal ta you ta think back on this pres- ent emergency. With this crisis in mind and acciuainted with al the tacts we are confident that you will vigaraus]y advocate the free, unhampered development of motar transportation in every part of Ibis great nation."
