This is anniversary time in the churchesâ€"â€"-a time when most churches are taxed to capacity to accommo- date all who may desire to partici- pate in the special services. The large attendance on this occasion is ac- counted for mainly by two factors: a desire to express to Divine Providence for multitudinous blessings the fruits of the year, and the pleasure of as- sociating with the members of other congregations and communities as: sembled in goodly numbers.

URGES OPEN SEASON FOR LEARNED JUDGES Speaker Suggests Fixing Period When They Might Express Themselves Kingston, Octâ€"County Judge M. B. Tudhope of Leeds today suggested there should be an open season for Judges, two or three weeks a year, during which the judges might ex- press themselves. He spoke on free- dom of the press and freedom of speech at a luncheon of the Eastern Ontario Municipal Electrical Associa- tion. Freedom .1}? speech is delicate thing for a iudge to discuss, he said. My friend the Judge of Middlesex spoke out in at meeting and there was a roar frOm the papers who, like most exponents of freedom. believe it more enthusiastically fc r themselves than for others. Would Improve Temper “I suggest there‘should be an open season for judgesâ€"say two or three weeks in the year conveniently spaced â€"so they may express themselves ad lib, thus greatly reducing the danger of apopleXy and ingrcwing temper.” . Half a century ago readers had faith in the accuracy of published news, but with few exceptions papers today inspire no such faith. Advertisements, he said, had gone far beyond the limits of decency. Peo- ple were frightened into buying things to cure diseases they never suspected they had. Judge Tudhope’s reference to the Judge of Middlesex, Joseph Wearing made in Toronto several months ago in which he criticized legislation pas- sed by provincial legislators inQue- bec, Ontario and Alberta.

FERGUSON SAYS WAR UNLIKELY Great Britain’s Strength Seen As Deterrent in Europe Torontoâ€"Because of Great Britains strength and because of her influence in international affairs, there now is less fear of war, Hon. G. Howard Fer- guson, former Canadian High Com- missioner to London, said in an ad- dress here Thursday night. Dominicns Aid Sure I do not think there is any chance of war in Europe for a long time to come, Mr. Ferguson said. He added that Britain, fighting for the peace of the world is entitled to kntcw that the Dominicns, which she cared for and brought up, sympathize with her in a practical way and would lend support in time of need. ANNIVERSARY SERVICES Anthony Eden, Brit3:h foreign sec- retary, is a good bargainer and is infinitely patient, Mr. Ferguson said. He particularly dominates and rules international policies of the world by patiently seeking eo-operation be- tween all the quarrelsome nations that believe might is righ and might must prevail.
