NEW THRILLS -- « J by the thousand. a a] Decoration Services services were held in the Pine Grove Cemetery, on Sun- day, June 20th, under ideal weather conditions, While there were per- haps fewer flowers than last year, vet nearly every plot had flowers on it, and everything 'looked fine." The Board of Directors and Caretakers are to be congratulated on the ap- pearance of the grounds, especially Decoration considering 'th¢ wet weather this spring. The President, Mr. Grant Christie, conducted the ceremonies, Mr. V. P. Stouffer led the singing with Mrs. J. E. Jackson at the organ. Special music was provided by the High School Choir assisted by pupils from Whitby School, under the leadership of Mrs. Kathleen Rowe, their school music teacher. Their two numbers were very much appreciated. i The Seriptures were read by Rev. J. A. MacMillan, and Rev. William Stocks, -led in the prayer. The ad- dress was given by Rev. W. C. Smith basing his remarks on Hebrews 12: 1-2, "Wherefore seeing you are com- passed about with so. great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which doth so casily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto* Jesus, the author and_finisher of our faith." The text of Mr. Smith's address was our unfulfilled obligation to these pioneers of faith in community and church life, and to these veterans who have laid down their lives for their friends can-be recognized in part, by our being living 'examples of service, even as they were. We can value our magnificent inheritance by handing on the bread which bringeth strength to others and through our unashamed faith in Christ, in the Church, and in God. May we treasure their mem- ories and keep them sacred! DIED . HENRY--At Blackstock, on Tues- belovel husband of Luctta Henry, in his 76th year.

This step is being taken to assure speedy comple- tion of calls for essential purposes. The use of priorities on war- urgent long distance telephone calls simply permits calls to the war effort to ob- tain preferred handling when lines are crowded. "Since priorities will be used only in be no undue interference with long distance service to the general public" commented Mr. J. A, Cross, Bell Tele- phone manager here. "Although the average speed of out- of-town telephone connections has have been some delays during busy hours to and from important war cen- 'tres" Mr. Cross said.- "Because of the necessity for conserving critical ma- terials, it is no longer possible to ex- tend long distance facilities to keep pace with the Horeasing _volume. of calls, whereby urgent war messages: may obtain preferred handling.
