O. Anderson, D.D., Dean of Ottawa, are well worth printing The sermon was delivered Oct- ober 13, in Christ Church Cathe- dral before Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth and H.R.H. The Duke of Edinburgh. If we are to speak, let it be tlearly and without temporizing so that what is said today will not be changed by every political wind that may blow tomorrow. How well the Psalmists words might apply "God has withheld nothing from us; surely he hath not dealt so with any other peo- ple." We here in this great land should indeed thank God for the responsibilities the days have brought--the responsibility of being Canadian. But let us never forget that the sovereignty of God extends not only over pary- er and worship, but over all our activities and institutions, and will be to Him one day we called to render an accounting We ought also to be thankful for the difficulties the days bring. When Benjamin Franklin ran his kite with its silk thread up into an electrical storm he brought good news out of bad weather, This was not the first nor last time this will be so and those who view the day with fear or cynicism would do well to remember it. It was "when Job had lost health, property and all that he had, when his sons were killed and his friends invited him to despair that he said: "The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away, blessed be the name of the Lord." It was when St. Paul, was in TRIPS EACH WAY EVERY DAY LEAVE NORTH BAY 9.10 a.m. 4.25 p.m. 12.25 a.m. Single Return $7.15 $12.90 UNION BUS TERMINAL NORTH BAY PHONE 101-2-3 BURIAN SPECIAL LOW RAIL FARES TO THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL WINTER FAIR TORONTO, NOV. 15-23 FARE AND ONE-HALF FOR THE ROUND TRIP Good going--Nev. 14th--23rd incl, Return--Leave Foronto not later than midnight, November 24th. Bell formation from auy agent, Want friends as beaten that he cour- danger from false well as enemies, weary, and facing shipwreck 'thanked God and took Age." Martin Rinkhart in Eilenburg in the midst of starving and dy- ing refugees, supplies exhausted and hope fled was prompted to write the hymn we sing today: "Now thank we all our God, with hearts and hands and voices." Problems, difficulties, ten- sions, fears, our world and our lives are full of them, Yet through it all we hear these words "In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." [here never was a time with such possibilities for good or evil than these strange and ex- citing days. Knowledge and ability outstrip even the imag- ination. Moral values are being challenged as never before. We were caught between two opposing ideas. There are those who prevent words and call slavery freedom -- and count individuals as incidental -pawns in the achievement of ever ereater glories both political and economic for the state, On the other hand those whose claim of freedom for the. individual has ended in license and frustration, and the worst case of materialism and selfishness (possible. > It is in this setting of conflict and confusion for the souls of men that we must work out our own salvation -- "a process most dislike and many will not face." Yet there is no other way to be saved or to save our world. It is a great time to be alive and as we thank God for thesu difficulties: we might well echo the words of Rupert Brooke: "Now God be thankful who has matched us with His hour...." Above all let us thank God for our opportunities and pray that we may be equal to them. A simple story will illustrate what | mean. Outside a small but beautiful bungalow one day the owner was talking with a friend who was congratulating him on his lovely home he had built. "It is nice," he replied, "but it is far too small. After the war when we built it, he said, we really wanted a much larger place, but we were afarid we could not manage it. Now we know we could have. We let our fears rather' than our needs or our hopes, dictate the size and now we will always regret it." Charles Lamb once said: "Not inany sounds in life exceed in interest a knock at the door," Let us thank God for the op- portunities for greatness that are knocking at our doors today and not let ¢ ther smallness of vision, lack o1 confidence. or fears for the future keep us back from achieving , those things God would have us do. "The timid sailors veer and tack, and hug the sheltering lee; But those who bring the wide world back, put boldly out to seal" there are Although the Bible says that "Pride goeth before a. fall," the proper kind of pride is an asset and is necessary, if both private and public life is to be what it should be. ii people do not take pride in doing their work well, in being honest and decent in their daily lives, and in contributing to the advancement of. their communi- ties then indeed conditions in their homes and communities will deteriorate to the point where no one can be proud of anything. Civic. officials and public spirited organizations can do much to foster pride in a well- kept town and in Haileybury we have seen an example of this in the benches that have been placed in parks and other places for the use of the but appreciation of this service seems to be sadly lacking in some people, as some of the benches have been deliberately smashed, Both parent and police action is indicated in cases like this. Youngsters should be taught that destruction of this sort will meet' with speedy and just punishment, and older persons with the type of mentality that condones deliberate and mal- icious,, or drunken, damage, to property not their own, should be given an opportunity to think the matter over in a place where there is no breakable furniture. But, as the old saying goes, "First> catch your hare." Ads. Bring Results| OBITUARY PHILIAS BRUNET Philias Brunet, 76, died yester- day in his North Cobalt home.
