On hearing the noise about midnight Mr. Stiver went out in the yard and was surprised to see a Pack- ard car standing in his ianeway near the barn. On approaching the car the occupants gave very sincere appol- ogies saying that they thought they were on a turn of the road. Such a story however did not sound very cred- itable and whether they were chicken thieves or just joy riders can only be guessed.

RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO, THURSDAY. JULY 18, 1929 “In Essentials, Unity; In Nonâ€"essentials. Liberty: Inf/4117 leipgs. Chafitvy.” 10:0 l The sermon in the morning was preached by the pastor, Rev. E. W. Heimrich and his subject based on i’Matt. 21:31 was “Yesterday, To-day ‘and Toanorrow.” In the passage re- ferred to we are told of the cursing ‘of the fig tree: After reviewing the ‘circumstances in connection with the incident, the speaker said, that the fig tree was cursed because it had no fruit and the lesson that Jesus meant to teach was that those who do not have faith in God shall wither as the fig' tree. Faith in God is essential for the disciple of Christ and Jesus adds that to such a faith the removing of mountains, the uprooting of moun- tains, even mountains like the one that stood before them, the mount of olives is a thing. of certainty. All perplex- ities, all difficulties must yield before the conquering powers of faith. Und- er the heading “Yesterday” the speak- er recalled the early beginnings of the congregation which was founded in 1806. He said that the Lutheran Church was the pioneer Protestant Church in this part of our fair Domin- ion, and it is interesting to note that this congregation was founded 61 years before Confederation and it is therefore twice as old as the Domin- ion of Canada. The hardships and trials of the’early settlers’were‘ allude ed to and they were referred to as mountains that stood in the path of progress. They had to be removed and they were remo ed by the con- quering. power of fai J1. It was stated that the first church was built in 1819 during the pastorate of Rev. J.D. Petersen. After serv- ing for about forty years the old log church gave way to the present edifice which was erected inI1860. Fourteen pastors in all have served the c0ngre- gation including the present pastor. Sunday, July 14, was a gala day for Zion Ev. Lutheran church, at Sherâ€" wood. Record crowds attended both morning and evening services. The church which was recently renovated, was reopened and rededicated to the services of Almighty God. The pastor in his address of. wel- come spoke of the great joy of the occasion and greeted those who were present to rejoice with the congre- gation. “As we review the yesterday of this congregation we see that it was a glorious yesterday,” said the speaker, “Why was it glorious ?â€"because men had faith, because the mountains were removed by faith.” In speaking of the present, Rev. Heimrich mentioned the fact that the present is our privilege, our oppor- tunity, our responsibility, as the past was the privilege, the opportunity and the responsibility of those who have gone before us. “To-day is the flow- er of all the past; it contains within itself all the possibilities of the fut- ure. noteworthy things have been ac- complished in the present. It is glorious in many respects. But we would not say that there are no moun- tains, no barriers to be removed beâ€" ‘cause we strive for perfection not only potwardly, but also inwardly; spiritu- lally.” But what of “Toâ€"-morrow," the fut- ure; we are shaping it, do we realize it? “Toâ€"morrow,” what can we say of it, it stands behind the curtain of the midnight. But of this let us be fully assured that if in the present we rhave {Nth as men in the past: have had faith we shall do our share in moulding a future that is well-pleas- ing to God and that is an honour to those who have gone before us. If we in the present do not have faith, then all the accomplishments of the past and of the present shall wither away. But if we do have faith then we shall help to make the future as glorious as has been the past. In the evening the sermon was preached by Rev. E.F. Stertz, of Brantford, and his subject was, “The ‘message of our new windows.” This ‘was a very appropriate subject be- cause eight memorial windows were Re-Opening Services at Zion E. Lutheran Church at Sherwood Impressive Service Marked the 123rd Anniversary of Historic Church 24 hour service. The day will be one long remember- ed by members and friends of the congregation as a milestone in the history of the church. T‘he pastor thanked the visiting friends who contributed so acceptably to the programme’ the donors of the memorial windows, the friends who furnished the means to erect a new fence to enclose the cemetery, the lad- ies aid for its donation, and Miller and Sons, of Concord, for their gift of flowers for the occasion. There is very little new to report I this week on the Radial situation alâ€" ' though Reeve Lundy of Newmarket, - chairman of the County transportati- on committee said that the negotiat. ions continued to look hopeful. Reeve Lundy and members of his committee were in Toronto on Wednesday to con- fer with the Board of Control, but the members of that august body as has been noted by press reports had many l contentious matters to deal with and :this coupled with the absence of Con-! ‘troller Wemp made postponement of _ >the conference necessary. The city fathers have however asked for more N time to consider the whole problem and apparently have been impressed by the arguments of the County Com- mittee. Reeve Lundy has emphasizâ€" ed the danger of substituting busses for radials in the face of present con- gested traffic conditions. It has been pointed out that to carry the summer traffic now carried on the radials it would demand a bus every ten or fifteen minutes and the congestion which this would cause on North Yonge Street in the City and in the southern part of the county has set the city fathers thinking very serious- ly. The conference with the Board; of Contl’el will probably be held next‘ week and the County Committee and Ithe people of the district are looking forward\ to a satisfactory solutlon which will maintain for York County the radial service. included in the improvements made in the church. Mr. Sterz’s sermon was based on verses 8.13 of the second chapter of Solomon’s Son. The speaker first gave an interpretation of the passage used as his text and then very beautifully likened the message and the call of the new win- dows tor the message and the call of the bridegroom to the bride referred to in the text. Mr. Sterz explained the symbols in the windows; The Font, the Dove of Peace, the Chalice, the Ten COmmandments, the Bible, the Lamb upon the Altar, the Descending Dove, the Holy Spirit. and the Cross and Crown. The message of Mr. Sterz was both instructive and inspir- mg. Rev. Bowman read the evening less- on. Special music Was provided at both services by members of St. Johns Young People’s Choir, of Waterloo. Mrs. Schmidt, the directress of the choir also sang in the evening. Mr. Lincke, organist of First English Lutheran Church, Kitchener, presided at the organ.

There was a fair attendance, and several quest- ions of interest to the community were discussed. The Roads and Lighting Committee reported that they had gone over the district and found that there was still some work to be done on various roads principally Oak Ave. and Edgar Ave. which required application of water clad to finish them. They also reâ€" ported that Mill Road was in a very bad condition and unsafe for traffic, and that the weeds along side of the various roads were not receiving ne- cessary attention, in some places they ‘had been cut and not in others. The Entertainment committee re- ported that they had made arrange- ments for a field day to be held in the church grounds at Richvale on Satur- day afternoon, July 27th, and concert in the church in the evening.
