Es ' ete do so, Te aTiatAkd aid Ake - Page Four bi los SA Sav (oe ib Lil NE Fe LOCAL ITEMS Mr. Hardy Purdy was visiting with relatives in town this week. A number of Port Perry Church members attended the interdenomina- tional "Witness Service" at Uxbridge on Monday night of this week. The church was filled, and the service was most impressive and inspiring both as to addresses and music. A united choir from the various churches led the singing. This was one of the outstanding events in church life for many years. The united effort is greatly appreciat- ed by the church-going people of the district. UNITED CHURCH W. M. 8, The United Church W. M. S. of Port Perry, met on Wednesday after- noon, April 10th, at the home of Murs. Smallman, Mrs. Jackson, presiding. The program was in charge of Miss Woon's group. Mrs. Farmer read the devotional leaflet and Mrs. L. Hall, gave an extremely interesting review of the Study Book chapter. An Easter seelction was rendered by a quartette--Murs. Peterson, Miss Grace Davis, Mrs. C. Beare and Mrs, Smallman, Mrs. W. H. Harris gave an instruc- "tive talk on our mission fields in Can- ada. It was decided to distribute en-' velopes for an Easter Thank-Offering, to be placed on the plate at the morn- ing service on Easter Sunday. On Sunday, April 14th, the morning service was a W.M.S. one, the speaker being Miss Mitchell, one of our field secretaries, whose address was much enjoyed. The W. C. T. U. will meet at the home of Mrs. A. W. Allin on Wednes- day, April 24th at 3 p.m. -- cow or---------------- SPECIAL MEN'S MEETING On Sunday evening last Rev. Lou A. Buckley; of Toronto, addressed a special meeting in the Port Perry United Church, sponsored by the Men's Bible Class. The attendance was large and the address was an in- spiration to better living. Mr. Buck- ley emphasized the type of religious living based on the teaching of Jesus rather than that based on the teachings about Jesus. The former out- look would give a vision and inspira- tion to practical Christian living, so well set forth in the "Sermon on the Mount", while religious teaching "about" Jesus was almost sure to re- sult in controversy and ceremonial worship. The singing was excellent; and the men's choir added beauty to the ser- vice with their selections. > --->-- PORT PERRY UNITED CHURCH Good Friday Service at 11 am. in the Church.

Dr. Bruce Thornton in his lecture "Around the World with Camera and Note Book". This lecture was given in the. United Church at Port Perry, on Thursday evening of last week, and for over two hours the audience was spirited from point to point in a pano- ramic view of world scenery. Dr. Thornton is possessed of the happy faculty of description which makes it possible for his hearers to see and understand in a very real sense, His human picture of eastern beggars; Australian sheep rangers; Maori natives, Chinese Mandarins or coolies; gorgeous Mararajahs or fan- tastic holy men of India, all these were passed in quick review with scores of other interesting characters. His advice to the prospective Globe trotter is to travel light. Beware of flies, Never pay prices demanded by Eastern merchants, Study the man- ners and customs of the country in which you are travelling and follow the customs if you can conscientiously Learn to speak a few words -- ---- --_--_,.

Not only was the lecture entranc- ingly interesting; but the pictures, both moving and slides, were in the front rank of illustration. One of the 'most outstanding moving pictures was that of a fight to a finish between a cobra and a mongoose. This is one of the most realistic scenes the writer has ever witnessed. One could not "help being thankful that he was safely !ensconsed in a comfortable church seat, rather than exposed to the im- minent dangers of enemies of the cabra type. Dr. Thornton is an eminent lecturer and he -has for his subject a most intensely interesting journey which few of us will be able to take, and which gives the type of information which should be available in any real geography lesson. Bu TEN HONOURED FOR SERVICE IN R.C. M. P. For over 20 years of meritorious service with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, ten men were award- ed medals at the University Armouries this week.

From time to time I have at. tended meetings. Three years ago a meeting was held in a hall up Yonge Street, Toronto, when that high ex- plosive shell burst and we were all gassed by the report of that price re- duction of our milk. In an attempt to add oil to the troubled waters, one of the gentlemen on the platform made a request that we should keep our heads above water. Oh, that statement drove home to me the thought of the tragedies that awaited us in the very near future, and I look back today, I wonder how many there are whose bended knees are on the bottom of the ocean, waiting for the tide of time to pass when they can begin to breathe a little more natural. I feel there are perhaps some who have passed out of the lime light of life. and others who we deeply regret to say have been ground out by the oppressors. : I attended the meeting at the King Edward Hotel on February 26th, 1938, and listened very attentively to the many remarks from the platform, also from the delegates who came far and near in the interest of their fellow workers, who were not able to attend. I was struck bad by our sincere friends from one or two places, who objected to the amount of dues to be paid to our association. I trust you will allow me to plead with you on this very much vexed question. I will endeavour to give you a little of my experience of the past. I am farming just ten years and I feel like writing a book on my experiences, you know the ups and downs, especially when you come from the City. Oh! oh! the sharks, wait for a poor innocent fish, Previously I worked as a machinist in the C. P. R. shops, West Toronto, and other places of that trade, I became PORT PERRY, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, APRIL, 18th, 1935.

LAWRENCE 780 Renal sure Easter by Yardley, D'Orsay and D Two PORT PERRY a member of the International Asso- ciation of Machinists, we were af- filiated with the other crafts of the road and shops, even to the man who sweeps the floor and the guy who does the pen wrestling at the roll top desk in the office; but we were all one big brotherhood. Our separate lodges met each month and were well attended, our grievances were always adjusted. Officers elected, at all times did their duty to the best of their ability and if not they were soon ousted out and a live wire voted in their place. Our dues were paid monthly ($1.25) and at times we were called upon to pay a special assessment, which I can as- sure you was needed and money which was well spent, and the best invest- ment we ever made. Remember brothers you only get what you pay for and above all stand solid behind your officers and give them all the support and encourage- ment that lays in. your power so to do, and above all do not allow yourself to become a weak link in the chain, band yourselves together as one man. Look what happened to the railway workers in January, 1935. From coast to coast every employee on the railroad in the whole of Canada got an increase in their wages, and we poor fish of farm- ers who have the situation in the palm of our hands, could get proper prices and fair conditions, if we would only do as the railway workers, also the police and other crafts of Toronto. Organize every branch of the Farm Industries and you will come out on top, but do not count a small pay- ment, be loyal, be loyal to your fellow- worker, your officers and to your As- sociation, remember, 'united we stand." Sir John A. Macdonald said, "The farmer asks for nothing and nothing he gets." So from now on ask and demand as one great organization and you will get what we have lost in the years back. . - Yours for the Farmer and Milk Producer, JOSEPH SIMKIN. (Farm papers please copy.)

Next Sunday the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper will be administered. - ~ The League program last week was on missions. Albert Harper gave a reading entitled " Albert Schweizer, apostle of Africa"; Myrtle Bond, a reading on "Young People's Societies in Trinadad"; and Murray Luke, a reading about the customs and back- ground of the people of Trinadad. The League met on Tuesday night of this] this week and the program whs ar- ranged by the Citizenship convener, Ralph Lyle. The topic was "What is Peace and why do we hate war." Readings were given by Ralph Lyle, Murray 'Luke and C. Clark. A guitar selection was given by Lillian Murphy, and our newest musical organization, the Prince Albert Harmonica Band, give a most enjoyable number, Ye hope to hear them again in the near future. We were pleased to have Mi. Robert Harris, of Port Perry, with us and he gave an interesting talk on law. Our League is invited to Green- bank for April 30th. i Mrs. Lydia Hiscox Ball Very early in the morning of April 10th, 1935, Lydia Hiscox Ball passed quietly away to the homeland of the soul. For the past two years she had made her home with her sister Miss Fanny Hiscox, in Prince Albert. was born in Prince Albert and spent her girlhood and young womanhood here. Her parents being of staunch English Methodist type, she was al- ways interested deeply in the work of the Church, Sunday School and W. C, T. U.
