Dr. Russell Speaks at Scugog Centre Anniversary _-----. x Scugog people were singularly hon- oured in having Rev, Dr. Russell, of Deer Park United Church, as their guest speaker at their anniversary celebration held at the Centre Church last Tuesday evening, There was a very large attendance, and an enjoy- able program in which performers and audience had a happy time together. The chicken pie supper was excellent, as might be expected from Scugog ladies. The speaker of the evening was in- troduced by Rev. Kingsley Joblin, son of the local minister, and assistant to Rev. Dr. Russell at Deer Park United Church. ' Dri Russell sketched the changes in world conditions since Victorian days when sentiment and security were prevailing features in the thought of the people. Then employers and em- ployees were knit together in common interest, and employers felt respons- ible for the well-being of their em- ployees. To-day we have grown hard, sentiment has vanished, employer and Painter, you have borne the respons- ibility .of the Superintendency. You have also rendered valuable help in "our Young People's League and other organizations. . In these connections you have won our respect and admiration for your honour, kindliness, and willingness to help. You will continue among us-in imperishable memory, and we hope to have a place in your remembrance. As an expression of high regard the community would ask you to accept these chairs, and this electric iron is presented by the Trail Rangers as a token of esteem, As you go to your new sphere of life, it is with our best wishes that you may haye' good health and pros- perity under the favoring guidance of our Heavenly Father, with the hope also that from time to time you will I visit your 'old friends of the Myrtle neighbourhood. - | Signed on behalf of the community, O. H. Downey, W. E. Honey, F. C. Harrison, Miss E. E. Haycraft of Bowman- ville, and Miss Maude Mansfield, of Toronto, were week end guests of Mrs. Briggs and family. Mr. Melvin Honey spent the holi- day with friends at Welcome. Mr. . Robinson and Messrs. Hilton employee fight for their "rights." In Victorian days the sense of se- curity was everywhere evident, Things had been as they were for a long time, and they would be that way for a long time to come. That sense of security is gone. In the same way "freedom" was considered one of the greatest boons humanity could enjoy. To-day the movement is toward the regimentation of life. It made no difference whether people were gov- erned by Communists or Fascists-- they had to do just as they were told, or suffer the consequences. The great spectre that haunts the world is WAR--war that in 1914-1918 killed 7,000 young men every day, and mutilated twice as many, ' This curse must be removed, and it can only be done by a realization that Christ came to save the world--not merely Canada, Great Britain, the United States, or any other country--but the whole world. The world is one to-day and we must learn to live together in har- mony or perish, Some people have been saying that civilization. Dr. Russell asked, "What civilization?" The fact is that "we Christianity has not really been tried as a working basis of everyday life, and when we speak of Christian na- Any person who will take even one of the commands of Christ and live it out thoroughly will never have doubts about God again. Go out and really try to live the "Golden Rule" and see if this is not true. _ ° yrile Station Service in. the United Church next Sunday will be at 3 p.m. with Sunday School at 1.46 p.m. Last Sunday Rev. W. E. Honey took for his text," Lamentations 3:22.23, "It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his com- passions fail not. They are new every morning; great is thy faithfulness." A large crowd attended the fare- well presentation given to Mr. and Mrs. George Painter last Tuesday night on the eve of their departure for Uxbridge. Rev. W. E. Honey acted as chairman for the short pro- gram which opened with community singing with Mrs. Luery at the piano, followed by a recitation by. Miss B, Cooper, a pleasing solo by Mrs. Edgar Heron, a duet by Mrs. Tordiff and Lois, a reading by Miss Eileen Cook, a song by the schoo] girls, These were very much enjoyed, Following this the presentation to Mr. and Mrs. G. Painter by Mr. John Quinn and Mr. ney, read the address. Miss Mildred Painter also received a pretty gift from her Sunday School class which was presented by Misses Doris Magee and Joyce Bradley. Following is the address: ' : To Mr. dnd Mrs. Painter and family Your removal from our community after several years of residence among us is the cause of sincere re- gret, for it will be a serious loss to us.

It is surprising how many can crowd into houses of such small dimensions. One notices, too, that the French Canadian commences his home life very early and shows an aptitude at commencing at the beginning and not to be too anxious to start where their parents left off. They learn to make their own way and do not depend too much on others, - A few days ago as one travelled from Hawkesbury, Ont., towards Whitby he was impressed by thecnume ber of thrifty looking farm houses that had the notice "Farm for Sale" at least nearly 'every other one ex- tending all along the highway. As he questioned his fellow traveller re- marked that mortgages were plastered on as the inhabitants tried to keep up with the "Joneses" and the munici- palities increased the taxes and when the days of depression came the bur- den was .found to be impossible to be borne. Whether these are the real reasons the writer cannot say, but the fact remains that these farms are for sale, Co It is true that the Province "of Quebec cannot boast of such fine roads as the Province of Ontario possesses but the Provincial taxation 'is not pearly. so heavy and thus combined with the reasons above given the French Canadian was better able to meet his difficulties when the days of along, hence his ap- tions if he has no resources behind by is the home of the Village Priest who has the welfare of his people at heart: He is their advisor and con- to hear a very famous tenor. she got home she was asked how she had liked the singer, SAMUEL FARMER, Editor and Publisher. apparently takes the responsibility of the conduct of his flock, he advises them, they depend on him.
