McDonald, M.A., B.Th., Mr. John Wordiworth McQuiggan was united in marriage to Miss Sophie BxU, both of Straffordville, Ont. New Telephone Rate* Commenting on the telephone rate decision as it affects local users of the service, Manager Stewart said:— “Under the new schedule of tele phone rates for this exchange the in crease for the residence u*er is very much less than for the business sub scriber. Two-party residence tele phones remain at the same rate a* heretofore. As a result of the very small increase to be applied to resi dence telephones, the demand for this type of service will continue to grow and the business user will have at his command a telephone area that is con stantly growing, making hi* service of ever-growing value to him. "As everybody knows, the number of telephones at this exchange in the past few years has almost doubled. Today there arc 974 telephones in service as compared with 589 only five years ago. This means a proportionately broader service for local users of the telephone. Even at the increased rates the service is substantially cheaper today than it was a short time ago. "To the average subscriber the monthly increase in telephone charges is expressed in cents—in most case* only a few cents. After all, it is a question of value—not so much what you pay as what you get for what you pay. We can help our business sub scribers to get greater value from their service, and this we are most anxious to do." Five-Pin Bowling The special prizes at the Tillsonburg Bowling and Recreation Club for games outside of league games, were won last week by Miss Pearl Haley with the highest ladies score of 216, and Mr. Paul Pollard with the three high games totalling 840.

The directors arc spending hours and hours-of their time to make the fair for jubilee year the biggest success in its history. • Friday afternoon three hours were spent with Mr. Ben. Jiotsford, special representative of Worth and Hamid of New York, and as a result three big acts were secured, all of which are con tracted for Toronto Fair the next week. The attraction* committee were able to make z big saving because of the short jump to Toronto. The acts include The Keelers, Edith and Marie, known as “The Diana* of the Air," offering a sensational aerial novelty, introducing intricate trick* with precision and grace, and concluding with a spell binding finale by singing upside down. This act was one of the big features at Toronto last year, and was contracted before the dose of the fair last fall. White Bro*., known as The Tip Top Boys besides Toronto, are booked for the following fairs:—New York State Fair at Syracuse, N.Y.; Central Canada Exhibition. Ottawa; Western Fair, London ; Peterboro; Quebec Provincial Exhibition; Michigan State Fair, etc. They present a screamingly funny comedy acrobatic absurdity, two com edian* who perpetrate the most ludic rous acts ever witnessed, and a guar anteed rip roaring comedy feature. The third act is a feature that has been a scream in the United States for fifteen years. Abe Goldstein, America's fore most clown, with Teddy, the rabbit dog. The board has also decided to pro vide an entire new attraction for the evening, but at the present time can not divulge its nature until full ar rangements are completed. Then on the final day a baby show will be a big : attraction in the afternoon. Already forty dollars has been donated by local business men. Weeks of hard work are yet ahead to select a first-class band, make arrangement* for new agri cultural prizes and contests, and any other change that the director* believe will help put the fair over for 1927. The “Will o’ The Wisp’ The nlay entitled “The Will o’ the Wisp,” being staged by The Little Theatre Club, directed by Mr. Bob Stroud and Miss Margaret Ellis, under the auspices of the Women’s Institute, at the Opera House, Wednesday and Thursday nights, is certainly a credit to the cast and directors.

Everybody,opens with chorus, “Hello, Everybody." gave a brief resume of what had been and a melody of Old Irish Songs, in- accomplished m the past, and pointed Hie monthly meeting of the town --------- .w council was held on Tuesday evening, from the general superintendent of all the member* being present but I pojtal service in Canada giv” Reeve Stroud, Mayor R.

We are all endowed l with courage, and nothing of real worth can be accomplished without a cour- ! ageous heart. Arc we undeterred a* to its activity—struggle of the will; .ire we faced with an embarra»*ment called effort? It is a wonder to find IiOW often results open to new impossibles, and thus arc made possible. Intense anticipation in itself changes possibili ties into realities, our wants being often an omen of the things in which we are competent of their execution. On the opposite, the timid and the faltering find everything impossible mainly be cause it is so. It is related of a young French offi cer of the army that he was wont to walk al-out his apartment exclaiming: ”1 will be a marshal of France, and be a great general.” This passion was a representation of a bold, resolute cour ageous heart of his success, for in after years he did become a distinguished officer and died a marshal of France. "True courage is the result of hard thinking": a brave mind is impreg nable: resolving lie, more in the brain I than in the veins, and a just sense of duty and religion will convey us fat- trier than all the force* of mechanism. To believe any business is impossible is to make it so. Many possible pro jects havc gone astray, mi,carried through and by despondency, choked in the inceptions of cowardly concep tion*. Should adversity overtake us, retrench—work harder, but never fly the track. Confront all obstacles with an unflinching persevcrcncc. Should wc fail, we will be honored; but shrink and wc shall be despised. When wc put our hands to a work, let the fact that we so doing constitutes the evidence that we mean to prosecute it to a finish. Stand by the anvil, for it is a part of the champion to be stricken, hammered and conquered. Plutarch says, "courage consists not in hazarding without a fear, but by being resolute in a just cause." It is not the stolid man, or the reckless mon who show* the noblest courage in the great battle of life: it is the map or woman whose nerves and conscience arc all alive, who looks before and behind, who weigh, all likelihood of success or defeat, and is resolute to their ground. There is related a fine anecdote apropos of this subject- A phrenol ogist year* ago. examining the head.of the late Duke of Wellington, said: "Your grace has not the organ of ani mal courage largely developed." "sou St. Petersburg, Fla. Mr. Editor,—I am sending a few line* respecting Florida. Florida has been hard hit. Last July it was hit hard by the most disastrous wind storm in the history of the state or the nation. I write to say that that storm was by no means general, but was local, confined very largely to the lower part of the state. Miami, that was so hard struck, is on the east coast, and is some two hundred miles south of us. I have not seen any trace of it here. The people in the north have hut little reason to fear a recurrence. It wa* the first of its kind, and, we hope the last. Thi* state is noted for its gentle breezes, and very seldom anything more than the breeze, so there is not much reason for alarm. And then Florida has been again hit by a heavy frost of recent occurrence. In the northern part of the state they have frequent frosts, and some killing one*, but here, in about the middle of the state, where we have more semi- tropical conditions, we are said to be below the frost line, but this year we were not. There were two night* in succession when the thermometer touched 40 above, and the next night 36, the lowest in twenty years. There was a white frost that was heavy enough in places to efface the strawberries, and W of the most tender vegetables, Hut it was not general, and not hard enough to hurt the citru* trees, but hard enough in some place* in the northern part of the fruit belt, to affect some of the fruit. But Florida's worst hit i* its finan cial depression. Its towns and cities have had a phenomenal growth. This city in 1925 more than doubled the number ’of its residents, and in 1926 spent twenty-five million dollars in mu nicipal and civic improvements, and built beyond their present needs, and seeing thi* they have cried a halt for a time. A year ago the bank* from the North were pouring in money at the rate of a million a day some of the time, and these men. foreseeing the slump coming, not only ceased this flow, but began calling for a return of their money. This give* a check to building operation* and some large contracts were held up. The bank* are again loaning money, but builders arc by no means busy, nor are likely to be for a year or so. In consequence of this the influx of workmen were thrown out of employment. It is estimated that quite two thousand men with their families have left the city and gone elsewhere for work, and the city misses them. Then some real estate holders have gone broke. Hearing in the North of the fortunes made in real estate deals, they rushed to the scene of activity and loaded up. nuking first payments, and hoping to sell and realize soon on their payment*. They failed—and failed bc- c-use they were too greedy in some cases wanted to make one hundred per cent, profit. They went broke and re turned home to kick Florida instead of themselves. Real estate is moving, but not as it was last year. Now the buyer dictates the price to the seller. The bottom has by no mean* dropped out of real estate. Other place* have had booms and have profited by their mistakes, and have built the wiser and better for it. You cannot break St. Petersburg, nor for that matter, any place that I know of. in Florida. But as long as that sun that rules the day and shines litre on an average of about 3G0 days in the year, and there is such an In winter time the Ice King doe* hi* best To make our live* a misery, and lest We should once forget that he is here.

MEDITATION 2 Peter 3: 18: "But grow in grace, and in knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ": It is the pur pose of God for all living things that they should grow. If growth is ar rested before maturity is achieved it is n t according to God's plan as revealed in the working of the laws of Nature. Our preparing of the ground and the planting of the seed is done with faith in the laws which operate for germina tion and growth. The interference with the working of these laws by cir cumstances which thwart them, brings bitter disappointment, as growth ceases before it reaches the point of fruition. In the realm of the sprititual, there is the operation of the same laws. It is God’s purpose for his children that they should grow. The new-born child in the Kingdom of God has before him marvellous possibilities of growth. However, there is this great difference between the growth of nature and the growth of the spiritual realm. Nature's growth reaches maturity, and then be gins a process of death. The top of the hill is reached, and then at once commences the descent on the other side. Christian growth has no such limitations, at least, on this side of Eternity, and of what lies be yond : “Eye hath not seen nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him." “It hath not yet appeared what we shall be." Day by day may we seek to grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

A most encouraging feature of last Sunday’s congregations was the large number of young people present at the evening service. A writer in the Brit ish Weekly soys: “It will be necessary in some way to meet the d«n*n« ot the young, and they will not be lulled to sleep with innocuous commonplaces. They demand perfect candor and fearless intellectual sincerity." This fact is being kept in mind in our pulpit work. Following the example of some toiles several of the organ key* have gone on strike and refuse to work. Despite thi* Bolshevism on the part of the organ, we were favored with splendid music by the choir to the accompaniment ot the new piano.We have one of the largest and best equipped church plants in Western Ontario, and yet, so many and diverse are our church activities, . that some nights we are hard put to in providing separate rooms for the various organ- izzations. This should be kept in mind when requests are made for the use of any part of the church, outside . of the regular schedule. The Y.P.L. was held Monday even- Pres. Wollstein in the chair. The meet ing was in charge of the missionary de partment. The scripture letson was read by Frank Fisher, after which Hazel Cochran read a very fine letter from British Guiana Maud Wardle then gave the first half of the Uague paper, which was enioyed by all. The topic of the evening was taken by Mayna Thornton on "New Days in Old India." and was a splendid one. alter which Dick Evans gave the second half of the paper- It was moved and pass ed that a committee be appointed to outline a new constitution. Also it wo* decided to get a Intergraph ontrial. The result of the conte»t up to Fro. 21 was given, which showed ,thc side with a total of 167 point* and the Purple 132. The meeting closed with the benediction. Everyone out next Monday night. It u QinsUan Fellow ship night.

There was a large attendance of the members. Tea was served at the open ing of the meeting by the hostess, after which the meeting was opened by the president, Mrs. Reg. Brookfield. It was decided at the meeting to hold three home-made baking sales during Lent, beginning on Saturday afternoon next. The services were well attended on Sunday last, especially the evening ser vice Mrs. Philiippo was the soloist and rendered most beautifully and accept- ; ably ’The Lord is My Shepherd." The rector continued his series of sermons on the History of Israel, speaking upon the subject “The Waters of Meribah.” A large choir rendered the service of praise. Next Sunday evening the subject will be “A Touching Scene on Mount Hor." No one should miss the opportunity of being present. The Parish Messenger for March may be had on Sunday evening next. See that you get your copy. Anyone wishing to get extra copies of the May number should make application for them to Miss Robinson. This number will contain a brief history of the parish and full announcements regarding the 91st anniversary. Extra copies will cost 10 cents each. The A.Y.PA. contest on Monday evening was a decided success as in deed have been all the meetings since the opening at the first of October, Every available seat was taken on Monday by 8.15 pan. The contest this year was under the direction of four captains. From three to six, items were put on by each group in a most efficient manner. The judges were Miss Huntsley, Miss Stronach and Mr. T. R. Winter. They gave their de cision in favor of the group led by Mrs. Dunbar, with that of Miss K. Miles coming second. Everyone present thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment, and it has evoked very much favorable comment. The A.Y.P.A. will rest from their social activities during the season of Lent, but the regular meet ings will be continued as usual. Subjects for the next six Sundays in Lent will be as follows:— .ffiveeeeaeaeaeacaaoooinnaoin First—a.m.. “The Fast that God Has Chosen”; p.m., “A Touching Scene on Mount Hor."Second—a.m., “Collect for the Day ; p.m..

Before she con cluded, the tears were again swimming into her eyes, and she *aid: “Sweet methcr, we were never separated be fore. And now. we are not only sep arated, but estranged; hc has sailed without even bidding me farewell; he has departed embittered and unhappy; gone so far, and for such a long, indef inite time, and thc end of all this is *o distant and uncertain," and then her fortitude gave way altogether and she dropped her head upon her mother's shoulder and wept heartily. Mrs. Hunter folded her arms around her. in silence, until her fit of sobbing had subsided, and then she kissed her and said, cheerfully: "And yet, my darling, in all thi* there is also much that is very hopeful and encouraging. In the first place, you feel sure that Falconer love* you, and only you, with his whole heart, and that he will love you forever; don’t you?" "Oh, yes! I am certain of it, mamma I certain of it! I have heard of many a successful plot to make mischief be tween a pair of hearts, but not the most skilful conspirator that ever sold his own soul at a bad bargain could by any set of circumstances make me doubt Falconer’s loyalty.” "Well. then, how much comfort in that! that in itself might be everything!

This manner was not assumed by the young girl—it was the natural and involuntary revelation of her feel- ir.gnaas unconscious as it was sincere. She could not help it— Something of a cold disgust. Wonderful and most unjust. Something of a surly fear Weighed her heart when he was near. And this feeling and this manner had for more than a year, in attentions to one woman, while his heart and his purposes were fixed upon another. For. poor fellow, with the usual blindness of victims upon such occasions, he never dreamed that it was Miss Honoria who courted him all this time. And, added to th.- prompting of his conscience, which Jet us hope was the motive power of the greatest weight, there were these lesser influences: The family in Howlct Hollow, and the world outside, too. expected him to marry Miss Honoria; he had led them to ex pect it! had he now the moral courage to disapp int a reasonable expecta tion? and then, certainly, in a rational and worldly point of view, Honoria was quite as eligible as Maud. She was the co-hcuess of her sister, and her money would be very useful in building up hi* own decayed fortunes— (not that Sit Henry was a mercenary for tune-hunter, for such was really not his character or purpose, only on thi* occa sion he committed the not unusual in troversion of lugging in hi* interest to encourage and support his conscience in the performance of a duty). And thi.., as for external prettiness. Hon oria, he thought, was certainly prettier than Maud; her skin was more snowy, and her features smaller and chiselled with a more classic regularity. And then, again, he manner, perfected during her residence at foreign courts, was assuredly more high bred, more aristocratic than that of Maud. In short Sir Henry, like a wiser fox than he really was, depreciated the arbor grapes hung hig’1* above his head, and praised the flavor of the chicken berries in hi* reach. Still he l.ad not quite made up his mind how to act. And in the meantime Miss Honoria‘s heart, or rather her vanity, sickened with hope deferred: and well it might, poor girl!

There is always work to do. God tell* us to pray without ceasing. Maybe we can not talk to those who we know do not know Jesus, but we can pray for them. In Mark !: 35, l*-32 it tells us of Jesus’ prayer life, and Matt. 6 tells us of the kingdom prayer of the disciple*. Neither of the passages contain any teaching concerning prayer in the Christian life, sate that the prayer life of the Lord should inspire hi* people to pray, and that the Kingdom prayer o: the disciples contains the essential elements that must enter into true prayer. It should be noted that prayer holds an important plaft in Christian life. It is the very life-breath of a Christian. The Christian life begins in prayer, enlarges through prayer and £s spiritually enriched by prayer. We can no more dispense with prayer than we can with breathing It may be safely- said that all spiritual decline and decay, - - - in the Christian life, u well as much of Ar.gu* Shop* alone now efficient the barrenness and the limited useful-' Ue work. nes*. find their secret m a lack of prayer. Christ and his Apostles, both by example and precept, not only taught the necessity of prayer, but that it should be giver, its rightful place as the greatest and most effective thirtg which human beings can do. Prayer is not a farce bu: a force. Prayer is not a mere religious exercise but a weapon. The believer who.knows how to pray also knows how to worship, work and. war. The Lord Jesus let nothing io-J ttrfere with prayer and the quiet hour. The early disciple* continued in prayer, secretly and publicly pleading for help from God. Prayer should then be con sidered one of the greatest privilege* that can come to a Christian- Indeed, nothing can atone for lack of prayer. Prayer and intercourse with God are indeed, the root and »ecret of all true service. ’Jesus often spent long hour* in prayer and especially in crilis time*. If Jesus needed to pray, how much more do we need to. Prayer quicken* and refreshes and to enable* to effec tive and powerful service. Two things in particular »hould be noticed about the praying of Je»u» here: first, the time when He prayed: it wa* early morning, while all the world wa, qui*t H* nought the time for prayer when he could pray undisturbed. Second, the place wflere he prayed. It wa* in a -olitary place. A desert place, a place where no one was apt to be or come. He wanted to be entirely alone with God. It is a good example for us. Wc can pray anywhere and everywhere, but the best place for prayer is a secret place. Wc should Otten get alone with God for prayer and communion. Jesus -aid all things arc possible unto thee. Matthew Henry remarks: Even that' which we cannot expect wc ought yet < to believe that God is able to do, and 1 when we submit to hi* will and refer oursclve- to hi* wisdom it must be with a believing acknowledgment that all things arc possible to Him. The time , of prayer is at all times and seasons.. The place of prayer i* everywhere. How often to pray is to pray without ceasing. The spirit of prayer in the Holy Ghost. What is our prayer? Is it a prayer that surveys merely the realm of temporal of the material, or is it a prayer which transcends the tni.igs of time and sense, v^hich asks that Christ may dwell in our hearts by faith, that ye, being rooted and ground ed in love, may be able to comprehend ’1 saints what is the breadth and ...... and depth and height and to know the lose of Christ which passeth knowledge, that we might be filled with al! the fulness of God. How far does your prayer project iudf into the fu- ■••••• right up to the day of judgment. For we know not what a day may bring forth and you and I are not competent to pras* for tomorrow for we do not know what* tomorrow may bring forth, and the only safe way is to abide by the promises ot God.

Its vita! quality is its drought resisting strength. This new variety of grain has been registered at Ottawa as "Vermi’ion.* In 1919 Mr. Larcombe discovered in his wheat crop a few head that were obviously crossbred and that showed drought resisting quality. He kept the kernels, sewed them in 1920. and gradually built up 1.000 bushels. The wheat is also reported to be heavy yielding.

SATURDAY We Celebrate It was fifty-one years ago this spring that this business was established as a "Northway" dry goods store—and thirty-one years this week (the last Monday in February) since the writer took off his coat and assumed a man’s job in the man agement of this business. What changes the years have brought! And the store has been making progress year by year enlarging and per fecting the service. And it is fitting that we should celebrate this SJst and 31st anniversary by opening a bargain basement. Our policy in this new departure will depend entirely upon the reception .the effort receives and the co-operation offered by our customers. Elsewhere on this page you get the whole story. (Signed) J. H. RUSH. WE OPEN THE BARGAIN BASE1W! CThe Great White Way to Economy _____ THE BARGAIN BASEMENT J During the past few weeks our big basement has been undergoing a great transformation. New floors and new ceiling, and the painters have turned it into a great white way. Plenty of electric light, perfect heating system and lots of room for everybody makes this a BARGAIN BASEMENT worthy of the purpose for which it has been established. While we have always carried a fine range of the popular priced lines of merchandise, they have been somewhat overshadowed by the higher class goods for which this store has long been famous. The BARGAIN BASEMENT gives you the opportunity of seeing many lines from all departments assembled ia a most intelligent way and quick service will make shopping in the bargain base ment a real pleasure.

It is claimed that 7 out of 10 men near or past middle life are subject to Bladder Weakness, which, if neglected, may mean years of suffering and daily annoyance. First sign of such condition may come in early life, but they are usually more noticeable after 40—pains in back, headaches, nervousness, a feeling of weight in groins, itching, burning, painful, urination, too frequent calls and getting-up nights. While serious, if neglected—it is or dinarily a simple matter to relieve these troubles by the pleasant home use of Dr. Southworth's URATABS, which have been victorious in thousands of cases, after other treatments have failed. No matter of how serious or of how long standing yiur condition may be, you can quickly prove the value of URATABS without risk of cost—for any good druggist will supply you on an absolute guarantee of satisfaction or money back. If "URATABS" bring you quick and certain comfort, you will be greatly pleased. If they do not fully satisfy, their use will cost you nothing. Try URATABS today! STRAFFORDVILLE Mrs. W. H.
