Canada's voice will be heard in all international affairs trout now. on. [ Rev. Mr. Cochrane of College St. Presbyterian was introduced by the chairman as the son of his father. In rising Mr. Cochrane stated that he was always introduced in his name. It was his grand om father who had ,made the name famous. He was pleas- ed to have this opportunity to talk to men. Usually his hearers were, women. He was pleased“to meet men as man to man. This is most diftic cult on account of the pedestal upon which men place the clergy. Social gatherings will bring us into closer contact with these men and we will get better results The church is the very last insti- tution thht we as a natty: can afford to neglect.

We are not parasites or coll- sumers only. We are producers of men, of manhood. - ". I ' The Rev. Dr. J. H. Hazzelwood was r the first speaker. He spoke of the grieat inspiration it was to stand be- -fore a 1oody of fine men gathered in the church." To-day some people as- sociate long serious faces and man- ners with the church. A man who becomes a, Christian is looked upon us ' a; person with a sense left. The old school said that you must not whistle ,on Sunday, you must not pucker your l lips and let the air formulate beauti- T ful sounds because it is Sunday. Yet .zthese same teachers can open their _ mouths and speak utterances that drive people from our churches on Sunday". .' _ The religion as taught by our Lord ';,,_.1“5 a, different one.

JV'This‘ is what we must try to bring Ecj'labout to-day. A'" "rr This gathering is not a model, but , rather an ideal gathering. The word world does not convey the idea. The _ young newly married couple were. both £13.:pr and lovely to each other. His wife continually used endearing names and called him the model husband. This term was used so often that the "Young man swelled with pride. His chest was extended and his hat was too small tor his head. At last, to his dismay, he looked up the diction- ary to find out what the word meant and found that model was a. small imitation of the real thing. This re- duced his conceit. Therefore this is not a model gathering but it is the real thing. It is not club confedera- tion, 'but a brotherhood united by the true bonds of brotherhood. Our Father unites us all in this great brotherhood. The object of this great brotherhood should be the_develop- ment of manhood and character. It‘ is these qualities that make our states- men, merchants and businessmen. These are the corner stone of our sta, bility. Some would say that the church is not a producer in these tinies of great crisis. Some call the church a parasite, some look down upon the )preacher as a useless person in our empire. Their ideas are wrong. The church is the nation's greatest pro- ducer. The principles laid d6wn and practised will insure the stability of any people, nation or empire. 1llrir1t'i'it,lg'giistf, Church and about 2:3 3 f' F" ts. frem the other church sat down f,),))?,,)'),)' well laden tables at seven o'- ','iiksiii';'iiric, on Thursday night.

IV. Adamson, ta- ther of the groom, Morris C. Adam- son, B.A., to Minnie M. Nason, B.A., eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hen- ry Nason. Mr. Adamson is gradu-) ating at Manitoba College as a. doc-‘ tor of medicine, and the bride and) groom will make their home at Ro- land, Man., until Dr. Adamson returns l to France after Christmas as a lieu- tenant. The bride is a sister of Cap- tain William Nason, M.C., on active, service in France and a niece of Josh; Nason of Weston. ' Mina. Benson Hubbard-A Woman's Way Through Unknown Labrador. On Saturday, December 1, 1017, at the home of the bride's parents, Bal- derson, by the Rev. J. Greig, Mary Ed- na, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. EE., Me- Cue, to W. R. Coulter, Q.M.S., son of Mr. and yMrs. G. W. Coulter, Wes- ton. Mr. w. ll. Coulter is an old 1Veston boy, and his many friends wish him every success in his new life. In August, 1915, he enlisted with the Engineers' Signalling Corps. Later on he was transferred to the position of Quartermaster Sergeant to the signalling training depotsat Ot- tawa, which position he now occupies. a dress of navy blue crepe’de chine, with white silk collar and cuffs and black velvet picture hat. She carried a bouquet of white chrysanthemums. Miss Eva. Morris, of Thornton, assist- ed as bridesmaid, wearing a dress of black silk and carried a spray of pink and white roses. The room was as- sisted by Mr. E. H. li'g'e'l," of Toron- to. The ceremony was conducted by the Rev. Canon Plumptre, rector of St. James Cathedral. Only immediate relatives witnessed the ceremony. The wedding luncheon was served in the Parish House by Mrs. Eugene McGill, after which the company was enter- tained. Mr. and Mrs. ft. S. Cooke left for Mount Dennis, where they will re- side, St. James Cathedral was the scene of a very pretty wedding, when Miss Lillian Maude, remaining daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene MeGiIl, former- ly ot Weston, was married to Mr. Samuel Roy Cooke, only son of Dr. and Mrs. JV. H, Cooke ot Mount Den- nis. The bride, who was given away by her father, appeared to advantage in a, dress of white Georgette crepe, with veil of tulle, and orange blos- soms she also carried a bouquet of white roses. The bride's' sister, Mrs. Edgar H. Cooper, accompanied her as matron-of-honor, and was gowned in A. T. J. c. M. Rev. W. H. Adams conducted the ceremony. After the signing of the register the party ad- journed to the dining room, where a dainty repast was served. Later on the happy, couple left amidst showers of confetti and good wishes for a J10n- eymoon trip to Mrestern points. The popularity of the young people was attested in the presents given by pub- lic bodies as) well as by private friends. 1tamsay--Bagg 1Vednesday afternoon the home of Mr. and Mrs, H. 'Bagg‘, Downsview, was the scene of a very happy event, when their daughter Ethel became the wife of Mr. E. Francis Ramsay of Sharon. The bride entered the room to the strains of Mendelssohn’s Wed-, ding March, rendered by Miss Thomas, a fellow student of the bride at the Mr. De Mill sang several selections during the evening. His magnificent voice and lovely selections 'gave the evening the finishing touch. Great work is anagpated from this Crina, mittee. Vote; of thanks was ably ten,, dered by Dr. Burton to those who as- sisted in the work of the evening. The Rev. Mr. Forbes Robertson, Rev. Mr. McKay and Rev. Mr. Sims all complimented those in charge for the splendid gathering together of the men. Mr. A. L. Campbell seponded the motion in a brief speech very much to the point. The speaker drew attention to the great need ot some such organization and the importance ot arousing the parents to their duty by attending church regularly. Mr. A. Peirson moved that a. com- mittee be formed with representatives from each church to look after the organization of the men and the for- mation ot a teachers' training class for all the town and to look after all social and moral questions of the town. It is the individual efforts that count. Our churches have too many inactive and honorary members. They are Silent partners. These are a, det- triment to the church. Each individ- ual member must become active, each man must do something. If you men will organize your influence will be unlimited. Each one is to do their part to make the church work more effective. WESTON PUBLIC LIBRARY Our boys died in vain in France it we are not taughe by their example how to die. How can any man who calls himself a Christian be satisfied with society as it is to-day. It must be changed. The church is the organ to change. it. Christ's teachings are the solution. To meet this men must organize. The grand results of organization are seen tn the Victory Loan Campaign. It our men would only organize tor this great Christian work, if our men would only be willing to sacrifice as they have done for these other 'ren- tures, our church would go ahead in leaps and bounds. fellowship must be developed into our midst. At Qxesent the pews in many churches are' closed to the stranger. Only those, with wealth are looked at- ter and cared tor. The poor outcast is always looked, down upon. He must be welcomed. The church must be- come more democratic. What are you doing to bring about these chang- es? Adamson-Nason Coqlter--orcCue Cooke-McGill WEDDIN GS J. A. Willoughby / 160 acres, 100 acres workable.
