~_Yes, it is high time to think of the council and board of education for the year 1949. In some of our municipalities the elections will be held the first of the month, in others it will be the 1st of January. During the past few weeks there has been considerable‘ disâ€" eussion and in many instances some very heated arguments over the actions of some of our municipal leaders. These actions have effected districts and the pockets of a lot of people. Now is your time to make your voice heard. Those candidates who met with your approval, who have given an administration that has been efficient and satisfactory would be returned to carry ion. Those candidates who have not measured up, who have not shown ability, who have not played the game should be dropped. These new candidates who are endeavoring to enter into the civic of government should be carefully :md and weighed. Why? Because the administrators of 1949 will be required to face a situation that demands the very best results for the money to be spent. Taxation is @‘ big problem and few have much money to play with. Satisfying the needs and reâ€" quirements of the local communities is anâ€" other important problem that requires a closâ€" er supervision than has been given in the past. With housing conditions, electrical cut offs, public services, disposal plants and the many other necessary details facing our counâ€" cils, be sure to elect men or women who know the situation and can fulfill your wishes. In the educational field there are many requirements. It is not only a good person that you want to elect, but a person who can give positive leadership that will be beneâ€" ficial for our boys and girls. These children are entrusted to the teaching that is supplied and made available by the men and women i:viqn elect to carry the burden of administraâ€" on. MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS One other item in the selection of candiâ€" dates as your representatives, is to see that they interpret your ideals for freedom and general conduct of life.

We all must remember that it is the local merchant who is meeting the needs and supplying the wants for the 62 weeks in the year. It is true he may not have the large stock displayed by some of the merchant princes, but he has given service and is giving service to the local consumers. He knows the kind of merchanâ€" dise that is required; he knows the values and if individuals will but make a comparison of prices, they will discover that they can buy just as cheap and in m:Ty cases cheaper localâ€" ly, than going down to the large centres. An examination of the merchandise that is ofâ€" fered will prove this statement. That being true, is it not the duty of every citizen to shop locally at this time, to assist the local merchant to clear his shelves of the Christmas merchandise, and thus carry on with the other commodities required for Janâ€" uary, February and March. Remember the local merchant is a part of the community life. He takes a leadership in the various organizations. He is always ready to dip his hand into his pocket and carry on the local organizations. He gives of his time and talent for the development of the local comâ€" munity enterprises. Therefore, it is only a courtesy that @ll should endeavor to shop locally at this season of the year. In fact, it is more than a courtesy. Do you realize that every dollar spent locally is returned to the community direct and helps to build the community life. Give your local merchants a real break, do all your Christmas shopping locally. Our stores and merchants are waitâ€" ing your support. a P on their friends happy at this season. Merchants fill their shelves with merchandise that is acceptable. Manufacturers have been prefi‘u- ing for this season for the past year. The goods are on display, every inducement is being offered to individuals to come and make their selections early. t o 0C $ n Have you noticed the scoreboard for the fatalities in the city of Toronto to date? They tell a tale that is disgraceful. Why should there be more accidents this year than last. With all the publicity, with all the detailed presentation, with all the supervision that has been given to prevent accidents, we find that the list is greater than last year. Some individual or individuals had a temporary lapse that caused an accident. It may have been over tiredness, it may have been too much stimulant, it may have been a nervous tension, it may have been simply utter careâ€" lessness. » However, facts record that the accident list is very serious. There is only one way that this situation can be overcome â€" that is for every individual to follow the rules of the road, to observe carefully the situaâ€" tions and be prepared every minute to meet the unexpected. Lives mutilated and injuries suffered through accidents should be avoided â€"they can be avoided if the proper precauâ€" tions are taken. Every individual must do his part in a strict observance of all the publicity regulations and notices that are put into effect. Plan to use the Kiwanis Campaign slogan, though the campaign is over â€" "Care and Courtesy." * merchandising season in the year.

A record attendance at the Bible School was greatly encouraging. « At the evening service Pastor D. A. Whitelaw continued the series of messages on the life of Joseph. In business Joseph revealed prompt dilig nce and faithful obedience. He was alert to temptation as it came opportunely and persistently and recognized it as a sin against God.â€" Fleeing from the strangleâ€" hold of suggestive and‘ immoral evils Joseph again lost his coat but kept his character and a good conâ€" science.. Being cast unmercilessly and unjustly into the filthy prisonâ€" house Joseph waited upon the Lord God Who still was with him and "Who was still the Master of cirâ€" cumstances, preparing the youth thoroughly for his future task. Likewise the Heavenly Father is accomplishing His purposes for mankind in His Son. The day will come when every knee shall bow and confoss Jesus Christ as Lord, to some as Saviour, and to others as Judge. How wise then to be prepared to meet thy God and the time for preparation is now. The Christian child of God may learn from Joseph to walt upon the Lord, Grandview Baptist In the Gospel for the day, taken from St. Matthews 21 and 1, you have the story of the triumphant entry into Jerusalem. It depicts the fickleness of the crowd who follow the popular voice of the people. They acclaimed their King coming riding on the lowly ass, but it was simply adoration and not true worship of the King of Kings. Is there not a reason heremfor every one to personally examine themselves. Is our worship of the lips only, or are we all sincere in our desire to pay true homage and_ worship in body and soul to our Lord Jesus Christ as He enters into our life. This season is the preparation for the great Christmas festivities and commemoration of the first comjng of our Lord Jesus Christ to this earth as man. ‘Remember, he has promised to return in glory to judge both the quick and the dead. Prepare for that second great coming, plan to study the Gospel and Epistle appointed for each Sunday in the year. Plan to attend your own church with reguâ€" larity and establish a direct communion with God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Ghost. Use this season for sanctification. _ Bwomh,dnw It is a call for a new start; it is an incentive to look things ht in the face and ask ourselves the quesâ€" tionâ€"where am I going * ‘Too many drift with the crowd, driven by the pogular voice. In the Epistle set out today, taken from Romans 13 and 8, there is placed before all, first the old ten commandments, the basis for proper relationsbip between God and man. ‘Then St. Paul points out that love is the great unifier anddeveloper of true brotherhood. Love, he says, does no harm but works for the good of every individual. Therefore, he calls upon all to cultivate love and put it into effect, At the clsing of the Epistle he denounces all who walk in rioting and drunkâ€" eness, in chambeting and wantonness, in strife and envying. These are the factors that separate one from Godâ€"and His love. | The First Sunday In Advent | TIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON At eightâ€"thirty a happy group of teenâ€"agers gathered in song and participation | at their service. Coloured lantern slides on the life of Paul added much interest to the program, to stand firmly for truth, righteâ€" ousness and purity knowing that all things work together for good to those who love God. The subject of the morning meditation _ at â€" Westminster is "What are you Worth." This quesâ€" tion is often asked and the answer is being pressed hard upon us now and will grow increasingly in its sharpness of demand for ~ an answer. We shall reflect on this subject Sunday morning. The Faustus Forum will meetâ€"at 8.15 p.m. as usual. The meeting is convened by Miss Gay Laing and we are promised an entertainiAg fellowship. Don Partrick and his colleagues invite any teenâ€"agers who have not shared their Sunday evening felâ€" lowship to be‘ <with= them at 8.15 p.m. The Amity and Ichthus Clubs will meet at 3.00 p.m. There will be no evening service as we shall be worshipping with Central United on the occasion of their anniversary. The Women‘s Association are holding their annual bazaar on Saturday, November 27th. Don‘t forget Badminton for young people on Tuesday evening and Saturday afternoon. The Men‘s Club will have the paper collection on Monday next, November 29th. at 7 p.m. Next Sunday evening the service will emphaste the T.B. seal camâ€" paign and a representative from the San., Dr. G. R. Garrett, will outline the purposes for this camâ€" paign. ‘ Westminster United Weston EFresbyterian The Pax Bible Class will supply the music and have a fire side hour after the evening service. All teenâ€"agers are invited. Our anniversary services were a success and we were especially happy about the music. Our guest goloist â€" was Tommy Hender_ of CFRB and Miss Evelyn Wardlaw. The guest ministers, Major J. Y. Fraser and Mr. A. H. MacKenzie of Islington were most acceptable. The W. A. provided the program at the social hour and were pleased to have so many friends in our midst. The choir practice is on Thurs day evening. Elverston Park United Elverstone Park United Church Taking as his text, Acts 1:8, Mr. Telford stressed the great need of a new vision of the work of the Weston Municipal Election Councillior for 1949 SANE BUSINESS ‘ADMINISTRATION ECONOMY WITH COMMON SENSE _ Editor‘s Note: â€"â€" The following poem was written by Mr, T. B. Gleave as an Armistice Day tribute. We 1 gret that it was omitted from our last three editions and hasten to publish it with our thanksâ€"to the author for a fine job. Poppy Day * The poppies red / _ whole church by the members of the church, This was the theme of the service held at Elverston Park United Church Sunday last. The minister said there is a tendency for us to be so concerned about our own needs that we fail to see the needs of others. In recent years we have tended to be selfâ€"centred and have said "Let the rest of the world go by." But such an attitude is impossible in an ever contrastâ€" ing world. If we are willing to end the evils that lay waste our own civilization; liquor, the worst of our movies, our armies and muniâ€" tions of war, surely we ought to be willing to also give them the best that we possess to bring health and healing to the souls and bodies of men. Every man needs God. Therefore every man needs Jesus, the supreme revelation of God for He is the very bread and water of life. At morning worship, Dean Stewâ€" art of, McMaster University deâ€" livered an address which everyone considered the most timely and apâ€" propjiata possible. His theme was "Oné greater than the Temple is here." Before the conclusion of his message, we all had our eyes turnâ€" ed in the right direction. It is easy to become proud of a new Church building such as ours; it is easy to become so wrapped up in the Charch organization itself that the more important things are forâ€" gotten or neglected. However, Dean Stewart reminded up is masterly fashion that unless our Lord Jesus Christ were given His rightful place (the first place) our new building would represent a waste of time and energy. We beâ€" lieve He IS here, and may God grant that we shall do nothing to banish Him from our midst. Mr. J. F. Seunarine, a nativeâ€"of Trinidad, will be the guest preacher next Sunday. He will give a more vivid picture of the Church in other lands. Last Sunday, the second in our dedicatory services of the new Church, produced a surprising seâ€" quel to the previous Sunday. On that glay we had overflow congreâ€" gations, and in the evening a numâ€" ber had to be turned away after the basement seats were all occuâ€" We did not expect a repetition, but again on Sunday evening we were compelled: to use the Public Address system so that the overâ€" flow congregation might follow the service in the basement. In thee vening, a song service of evening hymns started the worâ€" ship. It is so easy to sing with a large choir and a supporting, orâ€" chestra, plus the excellent work of our organist and pianist. Everyone sang, stranger and member alike. Weston Baptist Then Dr. Bingham spoke. He talked of the twelve gates to the Eternal City, and no one present wili ever forget their significance. Yet He emphasised that although we may come through varying exâ€" periences to that City, eventually we must all pass through the one way, that is, by Him who said "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, noâ€"man cometh unto the Father but by Me." The meetings continue every night this week. Come any or every night. We would appreciate your encouragement, and we beâ€" lieve you will receive a blessing.

So, Poppy Day | ~rovides a way OQur debt to pay To loved ones gone. They fell, that we Might all be free, And still might "Carry On." Not slave should be But free to "Carry On."
