The hearts of the nation go out to him, and there is warm praise for all who can find opportunities in which these men can earn a living. Public opinion throughout the whole comâ€" munity is being fostered, meetings of counâ€" cils, legislators, civic officials and other organizations are protesting any increase of beverage rooms or hotel licenses around this community. They feel that the beverage room is without a doubt, a menace and most undesirable. They feel that for the protecâ€" tion, not only of the community generally, but gpecially of the youth, that there should be mo :more beverage rooms permitted Wikhis district.

Those searching fingers, spurred For humble prayers the heights Poet‘s Corner A large number of returned men are seekâ€" ing advice to select their vocation in life, also a number of our ydung men and women need guidance along these lines. It is important that the men and women who make their choice should be cautioned against trying to fit square pegs in round holes; that is, men and women who have certain attributes, characteristics and tendencies should enâ€" deavor to select those vacations that are in accord with their opportunities. Too often students have been driven to select courses because fathers and mothers or relations have set their minds on the individual acquirâ€" ing his life‘s vocation,aloni lines that they want. As a result there have been many misfitsâ€"square pegs trying to fill round holes who have become failures. Under the present system of rehabilitating and educatâ€" ing those who have returned from active service, the C'B)lsn has required cramming of education. vernment officials are weeding out by stiff examinations those who are not fit to proceed after the first test. This means a loss of perhaps tiree or four months and also money, and has a tendency to disâ€" courage the individual. If care could be taken to see that each individual in picking out his or her vacation beâ€"well adviq%‘and the_dfiiâ€" culties pointed out, there might be a better selection of vocations made. In order to equip our young people and the returned men and women with the very best educational possibilities, it would be well to give more attention to selecting their vocations. Conâ€" siderable work is being done along this line in our high schools, but more work might be done in the senior grades of our primary schools for greater efficiency. Try and place round pegs in round holes. They will fit It might also be stated here, that if a person checks very closely on the services given over the radio stations, they will keep putting their watches back and forward anyâ€" where from a half minute to a minute and a half. When people are giving the correct time, as th%v say over the radio, a definite check should be made that it is the correct SELECTING VOCATIONS During the war period it was difficult to get certain parts and to make adjustments, but now these parts are available and more men are at hand, efforts should be made to keep these clocks reguhbed and in order for the convenience of the public.

Should you be catching a train or & have a definite appointment and you trust to one of the clocks that are slow or fast, you find yourself in great difficulty.

After the thorough canvass, only two people failed to sign the petiâ€" tion. In both cases they said, "I‘d like to think it over."

The numbers present exâ€" ceeded ‘all expectations. We alâ€" ways expect a lot from our supâ€" pers, of course, and are never disâ€" appointed. During the meeting that followed we were entertained by duets and solos by members of our ~willing choir: Betty _ Hall, Frances Pearson, Gwen Remus, Margaret _ Banks, and William Higgins. Miss Lawrie was on hand as usual for the accompaniments. The reports of all the organizaâ€" tions showed healthy progress. All allocations, including missionary and maintenance, were more than met, and the board of managers showed a working surplus. At this point Mr. Joblin was asked to step out for some fresh air, and in his absence was given a raise in salary by a unarmimous vote. On returnâ€" ing, the congregation was thanked for this expression of loyalty. Perâ€" haps the most obvious indications of a busy present and expanding future wéere contained in the reâ€" port of the new Crusade Commitâ€" tee, headed by Rev. J. M.

At this dinâ€" ner, officers and directors for the ensuing year will be elected. It was also ufireed that on Sunday eveâ€" ning, Feb. 24, the reiular service would be conducted by the club, and the music for the occasion will be furnished by the Men‘s Choir, under the leadership of Mr. Rex Metcalfe: More complete informaâ€" tion on these gatherings will be given in later issues of The Times and Guide. The whole congregation is inâ€" vited to the church for a social evening sponsored by the Young People next Wednesday evening. Their slogan is "Games and Fun for Everyone". The proceeds are for the redecorating of the ladies‘ washroom. © Westminster United _At the Forum this Sunday night we shall discuss the attitude of Canadians and Christians to our first "minority group" â€" our Inâ€" dians. The minister‘s elder brother, The Yung People will play badâ€" minton on each Saturday afternoon in the church hall. All young Feo- p}llei are invited to join our fellowâ€" ship. Rev. E. E. M.

After the evening service, a communion of the Lord‘s Supper was celebrated, when we thankfully and humbly responded again to His gracious request, "This do Ye, for a remembrance of me, till I come". What fellowship anywhere in the world stirred as it is by enmity and upheaval, can compare with the sweet comm\mion of the soul saved by grace,\who sits around the Lord‘s table to gartake aga.in of the emblems symâ€" oljzinf the broken body and blood shed of the Saviour to accomplish our redemption. â€" s We anticipate a very favorable report at the annual church meetâ€" ing this week.
