This was a great enterprise for the town, or village as it was then, and it was a real struggle but through the efforts and direction of Mr. Riddell it became a factor in the life of the community, It took part in many a political fight, gave force to many an improveâ€" ment and over the period of years, under changed management, has ’proven itself a power in the life of the town and West York. Weston Times And Guide Serving Town And Community For 56 YÂ¥rs. The paper has carried on with the exception of three months, when Mr. Whinton, who owned the paper in 1908 on to 1916, died sudâ€" denly. It was in 1916, after the plant had been closed for three months, that the late Mr. Sam Charters of Brampton came to look over the old plant that was then situated where the upâ€"toâ€"date sales and garage of Cruickshank is now located. Back of the printing ofâ€" fice was the old waggon works that has served for many a decade. With the taking over of the Times and Guide by the Charters Publishing Co. in 1916 a change was made in the paper . The old readyâ€"print was discontinued, the paper was inâ€" creased from five columns to seven columns, advertising <rates were raised‘and the paper began to pubâ€" lish with a new incentive. Soon further development was carried on, when from this centre the Mimicoâ€"New ‘Toronto Adverâ€" tiser was launched and later the West Toronto Weekly. At one time from this office the whole of the Lakeshore as far as Port Credit was looked after. Since then there has been developed a stronig paper in Mimicoâ€"New Toronto that has won the approval and is recognized as a great factor in the life of the Lakeshore. The West Toronto Weekly which evolved from here in 1921 has become, and is today, a definite factor in the west end of the city and part of Etobicoke. The present set up was taken over from the Charters Publishing Co. in 1942 by the publisher. \ During the past three years undef the management of Mr. Duncan Sinclair, the the greatest ml has been made with the [ and Guide. It is now looked upon as a definite asset to the life BAPTIST CHURCH, MAIN STREET SOUTH of Weston and parts of West York. The staff on the paper at the presâ€" ent time are Sam Wilson, pubâ€" lisher; Duncan Sinclair, manager; Miss Dorothy Greenwood, assistant editor; Miss Jean Perks, news editor, and Alf. Bird, reporter. The paper is indebted to a number of correspondents who are doing a splendid job. It is expected that greater efforts will be accomplishâ€" ed over the period of years before us. The Times and Guide extends to all who come to town, an inviâ€" tation to visit the office and beâ€" come acquainted with the staff, and to send in articles on events in your local communities, Sec. Deaconess Work Speaks To Central WMS The December meeting of the Central Women‘s Missionary Soâ€" ciety was highâ€"lighted by the presence of Mrs, W. J. Campion, secretary of the Deaconess work of the United Church of Canada, who gave a vivid sketch of the General Conference sessions in Vancouver, in September. She told of her own inspiration received from the conâ€" tacts on the special train that took the delegates out and brought them back in ten days, also from the sessionsâ€"the first great Comâ€" munion service during the first afternoon. This, gave a spiritual uplift to each of the commissioners. %he spoke of the devotional periods each day led by Dr. Thurman, the greatest, or one of the four greatest preachers on the conâ€" tinent, whose mother had been a ‘shve. Some of the pertinent questions under discussion during the Genâ€" eral Council were those of the status of women in the churchâ€" the right of women to be ordained ms ministers of the church, difâ€" ficulties in the way and how some of these have already been overâ€" come; preâ€"marriage courts in presâ€" bytery and conference; social servâ€" ice; recruiting; the movies and the individual responsibility of every church member to supervise the The Ministerial Auociné!on of Weston is giving a leadership for spiritual life in the town and throughout the community. This is one of the most important factors in the development of any town life. As you recall the early days of history when St. Phillip‘s Anglican church, through the efâ€" forts of the late Canon Tremayne‘s father, was organized and deveâ€" loped and has been the pioneer church for over 115 years in this community. Nince then there has been a full development of church life throughout the town, and through the efforts of the Minisâ€" terial Association, leadership has been .given throughout the whole sensure bravely, so that the theatres might know the attitude of the individual to the movies shown. Weston Church Centre Giving Leadership The place of Laymen in our United Church being fiftyâ€"fifty; the future of missions in the face of terrific world conditionsâ€"shall we go forward or evacuate the fields we won with such difficult work in early days. Dr. Arnup gays: .‘Forward March.‘ The radio at Shanghai has nothing but religious broadcasts. Outstanding â€" addresses w ere given by Dr. Scisco, Dr. Service of China, Dr, Jones, the retiring Moderator, and Dr. Arnup, Foreign Mission upervisor. The services and hymnâ€"songs on the train added to the inspiration. At least 400 of the church got a glimpse of the workings of the higher court. Mrs. Warren led the devotional period. Her theme was "The Spirit of Christmas." She used Bruce Hutchinson‘s article in Detember Ladiesâ€"Canadian â€" Home â€" Journal on the revival of the true Christâ€" mas in contrast to the commercialâ€" ized modern Christmas, which is ning the world. Exerps ‘from m stories of the Birth of Christ were read and used to show the simplicity in acceptance of the child in the manger by shepherds and astronomers from the East. Annual reports were read in brief, by members of the executive, Mrs. Leo. Murray sang: "He That Dwelleth in the Street Place of the Most High, Shall Abide Under the Shadow of the Alâ€" mighty." This was a climax to the Christmas spirit generated. The heads of committeeâ€"Mrs. Stong and Mrs. Sandy made everyâ€" one welcome,. The room was decorated with Poinsetti. Mrs. Gowland read the report of the nominating committee, and it was accepted. The installation of officers will take place in January. The executive in charge. PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, CROSS STREET community. This is the sort of leadership that is required today to solidify the thinking and .the actions of the people. Where there is development it can always be traced to have centred originally around the church, The church development in Weston has kept pace with the town, A great work has been done over the period of years and the churches are always ready to welcome and invite those outside to attend their services, to cooperate with their young peoples‘ meetings, to make exchanges of meetings through the whele disâ€" trict. Take this opportunity of visiting these churches and beâ€" coming associated with the leaders. You will find it most advanâ€" tageous.
