THE HAILEYBURIAN Armistice is Commemorated at Special Church Service Ex-Soldiers and Citizens Join in Worship on Eve of Eleventh An- niversary of War's End; Hear Impressive Sermon With Peace as Chief Theme Between thirty and forty war veterans attended the United Church in a body on Sunday night for the annual Armistice Service conducted by Rev. D. A. Mac- Keracher. The men gathered at the club rooms of the Canadian Legion and marched to the Church, where there was a large congregation and a solemn _ser- vice in commemoration of the anniversary of the signing of the armistice. There were suitable hymns, an anthem and a solo, ar- ranged by the organist, Mr. R. H. Unwin, who is himself a veteran of the great war. Speaking from the text, "Jesus answering said unto them, 'ren- der to Caesar the things that are Caesare's and to God the things that are God's'" St. Mark, 12, 17, Rev. MacKeracher gave a_ very impressive address with peace as the theme. The people have drunk to the dregs the cup of war, he said, and all efforts are now turned toward the securing of an enduring peace. War can- not be avoided unless repentance comes first and public opinion rises up against it. Christ's gos- pel must first animate the world. The League of Nations, the World Court, the Locarno Pact, | were all movements toward peace and were causes for great thanks- giving. The pact signed at Paris this year had been criticised, the speaker said, because it did not specify any physical means for its enforcement, but the parties to this had relied on honor, Chris- tianity, justice and right, and nothing could be more compre- hensive of these than the words of the text. "Shall they cont- inue?" he asked. "Shall the ad- vocates of force prevail against the progressive patriots who hold that judicial decisions can and will settle all disputes between nations?" The plea that war is inevitable was a hang-over from early times, Rev. MacKeracher said, and had no place in the general scheme of things today. The proposed disarmament dis- cussions formed but one aspect of an enormous complex program the speaker said. Mental and moral disarmament must precede these discussions if they were to have lasting results. "Peace be won by our repeated efforts, organized to "Render unto God the things that are God's." The following is the complete order of service, a service that was one of the most impressive ever heard in Haileybury on a similar occasion. Order of Service 7k OK sok ORGAN PRELUDE. DOXOLOGY. PRAYER. HYMN: 'For ever with the Lord' Amen, so let it be: Life from the dead is in that word; 'Tis immortality. Here in the body pent, Absent from Him I roam, Yet nightly pitch my moving tent, A day's march nearer home. READING. SOLO: 'For ever with the Lord' Father, if 'tis Thy will, The promise of that faithful word Even here to me fulfil: Be Thou at my right hand, Then can I never fail; Uphold Thou me, and I shall stand Fight, and I must prevail. Solemn the drums thrill, Death august and royal Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres There is music in the midst of desolation And a glory that shines upon our tears, They fought. They were terrible. Nought could tame them. Hunger nor legions, nor shattering cannonade. They laughed They sang the melodies of England. They fell,--open-eyed and unafraid. As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust, Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain. As the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness To the end, they remain. HYMN: Blest be the everlasting God, The Father of our Lord; Be His abounding mercy praised, His majesty adored. Saints by the power of God are kept Till the salvation come; We walk by faith as strangers here; But Christ shall call us home. How shall I love that word, And oft repeat before the throne, 'For ever with the Lord.' Up to the sombre sky Thank God for peace. PRAYER. ANTHEM: Pew When from the dead He raised His Son And called Him to the sky, He gave our souls a lively hope That they should never die. So, when my latest breath Shall rend the veil in twain, By death I shall escape from death, And life eternal gain. Knowing as I am known Thank God for peace. Rolled one great thankful sigh, Rolled one great gladsome cry. The word came to us as we knelt in prayer That wars might cease. Peace found us on our knees, and prayer for peace Was changed to prayer of deepest thankfulness; We knelt in war, we rose in peace to bless Thy grace Join hands. Join hands Thy care, Thy tenderness. Ye nations of the earth And make henceforth a mighty Trust for peace. A great enduring peace that shall withstand The shocks of time and circumstance; and every land Shall rise and bless you--and shall never cease To bless you---for that glorious gift of peace. ANNOUNCEMENTS and OFFERTORY. HYMN: Lord, while for all mankind we pray Of every clime and coast, © hear us for our native land, The land we love the most. © guard our shores from every foe; With peace our borders bless; With prosperous times our cities crown Our fields with plenteousness. SERMON. HYMN: O God of Love, O King of peace, Make wars throughout the world to cease The wrath of sinful man restrain, Give peace, O God, give peace again. Whom shall we trust but Thee, O Lord? Where rest, but on Thy faithful word? None ever called on Thee in vain; Give peace, O God, give peace again. SILENCE and LAST POST. VESPER HYMN: Unite us in the sacred love Of knowledge, truth and Thee; And let our hills and valleys shout The songs of liberty. Lord of the nations, thus to Thee Our country we commend; Be Thou her refuge and her trust Her everlasting fri Remember, Lord, Thy works of old, The wonders that our fathers told; Remember not our sin's dark stain; Give peace, O God, give peace again. Where saints and angels dwell above, All hearts are knit in holy love; O bind us in that heavenly chain; Give peace, O God, give peace again. Holy Father, cheer our way With Thy love's perpetual ray. Grant us every closing day Light at evening time.

Some material was on hand to be sold at the bazaar, such as quilts, etc., were stolen, but worst of all was the theft of the Sunday School pupils' birth- day box, wherein they put cop- pers representing their age on the Sunday closest the birthday. --Cochrane Northland Post.

Tuesday evening some bold thief stole a calf from a dairy- man west of the town. The calf was taken towards town but in the flats near Dalton's bridge the thief or thieves stopped near the side of the road and butchered the animal in apparently approvy- ed style. All this may be deduc- ed from the signs left along the route. There had been a snow- fall during the evening and it was easy to reconstruct the -pro- ceedings from the tracks and marks.--Porcupine Advance.

Mayor Sullivan told the coun- cil that the Nipissing Mining Co. was taking action to collect tax arrears and ground rentals, and in so doing had made seizures. He declared that some of the citi- zens were wronfully blaming him for this action. He declared he had had nothing to do with the action taken, although he was in favor of it. It was, he understood, the intention of the Company to turn all leased lots over to the leasees for the nom:- nal sum of $1, providing their taxes were paid up in full, as soon as the town accepts the sub- division plan submitted by them. --Cobalt Northern News.

"The gold mines are going to come back fi rst," declares John E. Hammiell, prominent mining man, to The Northern Miner when the market situation was discussed. "There are* three things in Canada which we pos- sess, and that the world needs most. They are wheat for food, timber for shelter, and gold to pay for them. The world needs gold more than ever, and on the basis of securing it apparently are. willing to pay a_ higher price for it. My feeling is that gold stocks are going to be the first to return to high public fa- vor, and that we are entering up- on a new era of interest in the development of gold mining pros- Ontario Railway TRAIN SERVICE The CONTINENTAL LIMITED, Trains Nos. 1 and 2, between Montreal and Vancou- j ver, daily, operating through Sleeper between * Cochrané and Toronto.
