C 5D THE TIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON 21 Taking his text from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Ephesians, 6: 10, "Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might". Rev. D. B. Rogers delivered an inspiring sermon ‘ and gave a message to the Young _People that will not soon be forgotâ€" ten. He pointed out that this great ‘Dominion-wide organization, of which St. John‘s Weston is a Branch, has a wonderful strength, and is a mighty power for good in the church, in the community, and in our Dominion. He stated that great strides had been ‘made in the work of the Anglican Young People‘s Association throughâ€" out Canada during the past year, and that at the present time a big effort was being put forth to place the Asâ€" sociation on a stronger footing in our Western Provinces. Following the service the members of the A.Y.P.A. and congregation reâ€" paired to the Parish Hall when reâ€" marks were made by visiting memâ€" bers of other A.Y.P.A. Branches, the Clergy present, and. others. Mr. Davies, on behalf of the members of St. John‘s welcomed the visitors and thanked them for their. coâ€"operation in a\really inspiring service. Rev. Mackey also spoke a few words of welcome and Rev. J. Hughes Jones gave a short resume of the A.Y.PA. and stated the work. was started at St. John‘s Weston as early as 1904. Mr. S. Wilson proposed a very hearty vote of thanks to Rev. D. B. Rogers for his excellent address and also spoke a few words in connection with Toronto Local Council activities and the opportunities opened to A.Y.P.A. members.: Miss Beth Hassard favyâ€" oured the gathering with a pianforts solo and also acted as pianist for the singing. Launching forth into his subject the speaker said that in these words of St, Paul‘s there were three disâ€" tinct meanings of the word ‘strength‘. ‘Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His Might‘. "The three words here used by St. Paul in his Epistle to the Ephesians all mean, strength but in a very different senâ€" se", said Rev. Rogers. "In the first place we find the words ‘be strong‘. Strength here means the firm rockâ€" strength. We must have the strength to stand firm in the face of adversity, in the face of evil. Just as the rock on the sea shore stands firm agui?st the Jashing of winds and waves, !so also must we, as members of this great Aunglican Young People‘s Asâ€" sociation, have the strength to stand still, as it were, to stand firm in the face of adversity, of evils, and of temptations. We ~mustâ€" breast _ the storms but still remain on that rock foundation of strength. Secondly, continued the speaker, "in the word ‘power‘ _ we find that _ dynamic strength, that strength of action, that strength to do something. Not only must we have the strength to stand firm, but we must have the strength, the dynamic power, to go forward and to accomplish greater and greater things for Christ and His Church. There are unlimited opportunities for the Young People in this great Domâ€" inionâ€"wide‘ Association to do someâ€" thing definate, _ something really worthwhile for Christ‘s Church, In the third place, we have the word ‘might‘. ‘Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His imight.‘ Here we might interpret the word to mean to us the strength to go forward in the right direction. We must be up and doing, but we must ‘be accomplishing things in the right direction. We must have the power to use our strength in the right way. The dyramite strength is a wonderful thing but if misdirected more harm than good is likely to reâ€" sult. Therefore we must be absolutely* certain that our strength has the proper guidance, that we are using it in the very best way for Christ. “ "We must then have true strength in our Anglicanâ€"~Young People‘s Asâ€" sociation; the strength to stand firm, the strength to go forward and do things, and the power to use our strength wisely to the Glory of God for Christ and His Church." St. John‘s Branch of this Dominion Ossociation of Anglican Young People have had a most successful year and their activities will be brought to a close within the next week with the annual banquet for which arrangeâ€" ments are now being completed.

Preaches Splendid Sermon and Throws Out Challenge to Organizationâ€" Sunday last was "A.Y.P.A. Sunday" at St. John‘s Aunlican Church and the evening service was especially devotâ€" ed to the Young People. Rev. D. B. Rogers, of the General Board of Re:â€" ligious Education, was the special speaker and gave an excellent adâ€" dress to the A.Y.P.A. members and the congregation present. Rev. J. Hughes Jones, rector of the church, and Rev. W. E. Mackey took part in the service and also spoke a few words later in the Parish Hall. Mr. Leonard Davies, President of the Asâ€" sociation, and Mr. Tom â€" Sainsbury read the lessons, and members of the Branch acted as sidesmen during the evening. Must Use Strength Wisely REV. D. B. ROGERS GJ WESTUN L Dr. Pratt Graphically Portrays Newfoundland Life With Its Great Fishing Industry Weston Literary Society held their usual interesting and educative proâ€" gramme on Wednesday evening last, in the Masonic Temple, the speaker for the evehing Dr. E. J. Pratt of Toronto University, giving a review of a few of his well known and popuâ€" lar books "Newfoundland Verse" "The Titans" and others. _ His introductory remarks, gave a description of Seal Fishery, an industry particularily adâ€" apted to the Newfoundland Coast. _ Dr. Pratt carried his audience with him, visualizing every! phase of the life and environment of the Newâ€" foundland Fisher folk, in such a manâ€" ner as to transplant for the time beâ€" ing, his audience into a new world and atmosphere. As he talked could almost hear the roar and hiss of the angry winds and rolling geas, and see them breaking over the sides of the vessel, tearing away hatches and carâ€" _ The number of children in each family ranges from two to twelve. . rying everything before it, to death and destruction. Quickly the scene changes, the sun comes out, the ice floes and packs are transformed into glistening colorful mounds of beauty and one drank deep of nature‘s beauâ€" ty. Then you followed the Seal Fishâ€" er, on his dangerous journey, out to these ice floes, lieing as if asleep, black dotted with seals, sunning: themâ€" selves, in the bright spring sunshine. The boat leaves the shore manned with some hunrede or more, she anchâ€" ored in the waters of the Bay, and the men start out to their hunting ground, but not for pleasure "Ah â€"No" it is bread and butter and clothes.to wear. The chase is on, the killing good, and forgotten is danger, and no heed paid, to signals of the fast apâ€" proaching storm, which . within the space of a few minutes, engulf$ them, shutting from their sight, the ship, taking from their minds all sense, of location, lashing, dashing, _ blinding them, as they struggle blindly on, to what they believe to be safety, one falls, another sinks, another turns aside and is drifted out to sea, and when the roll is mustered, some sixâ€" ty souls are missing, and the schoonâ€" er creeps home, with flag half mast and anxious wives, mothers and sweethearts, turn away, to hide an aching heart, as the living embark, and the ones they seek are not.

Well Thoughtout Plan "And what are you going to give your sister for a birthday present, Bobbie?" asked the visitor, by way of making friends. § * A This was the life unfolded iby the speaker, tragedy, pathos, heroism and comedy intermingled. Perhaps for heroism none toched so closely, as taht of the patient stocial plodding on, of the men lost in the storm swept ice field, or the rescue of some 90 souls from a wrecked vessel, by the courage and faithfulness of a dog, so graphically depicted. in the ode written by Dr. Pratt in which he gives to the dog, a soul and reasoning powâ€" ers stronger than mere brute instinct. Tales of whale fishing, of sharks cutâ€" ting their way through the waters, cruel andâ€"sinster of the octopus,â€"with its tenacles reaching out, and crushâ€" ing life, from whatever came its way, all told with a vividness, that was most realistic closed the programme, a voteâ€"of thanks, being moved by Mr. Glarke, seconded by.
