To be read by the person presiding. It is appropriate that the first note of Thanksgiving should also be commemorative of the early ploneers and settlers who by their labors laid the foundations of our nation. The words of the following hymn have been sunz throwgh many generations and in many lands. They acquire a new signiflcance as they call to mind the trials and privations of those heroic men and women who, in deep forest or lonely clearing, made the first Canaâ€" dian homes. Leaving behind many of their own kin and friends and the securities and comforts of civilization, they brought with them a high courâ€" age, firm endurance, and an abiding faith in the God of their fathers.

Whilst the order of proceedings here set forth is one which it is hoped may be followed in all parts of the Dominion, it is recognized that additions thereto, or subtractions therefrom may be deemed advisable by local Comâ€" mittees; also that substitution of other numbers for those printed may be necessary, especially where translations are required. It is therefore underâ€" stood that alterations of this kind may be made whenever local Committees so decide. The person presiding shall announce the several numbers in the order 8f proceedings and read aloud the explanatory passages. With the exception of the first and last numbers, the singing should, where possible, be proceeded by the playing of the air by accompanying musical instruâ€" ments as arranged for by the local Committees. To facilitate unison in the passuages to be read aloud, such methods shall be followed as local Commitâ€" tees may arrangoe for in advance. Let Nothing Intefere With Your Arrangements In Canada the municipal system lies at the very basis of its parliaâ€" mentary institutions.

On this day of National Thanksgiving it is especially appropriate that we should keep in remembrance those brave men and women who have made the Supreme Sacrifice in the service of our country.

COMMEMORATIYE OF THOSE WHOSE LIVES HAVE BEEN GIVEN IN THE COUNTY‘S SERVICE. vi. iv. H1 No. No. 5. COMMEMORATIVE OF THE FATHERS OF CONFEDERATION. * To be read by the person presiding. The value and interest of history are derived chiefly from the lives and services of the men whom it commemorates. Without these the progress of the nation would be little worth recording. Upon this day of National Thanksgiving it is fitting to recall the eminent services of the Fathers of Confederation, through whose efforts the scattered Provinces of_Canada have been united under one constitution. Our appreciation of t,l@fi' greatâ€" ness increases with the passing years. To follow in their footsteps in deâ€" voted service to our country is the highest tribute we can pay to their mem#ory. Expression is given to this tribute in the words of the following hyman. 5 Our Father which art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingâ€" dom come. Thy will be done in Earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.â€"Amen. p"ho: P ,,,t in l h s 6 ie n e s i o. 4 uie Psn tnns enc ied esntc Eh6 uces Sn Be thankful unto Him and speak good of His nams.
