Friendship can no more be feigned than can an im- pure metal ring true. “You must be friends for sure,” ex- plained a boy in a tale of the heath country when he was asked how he had won the confidence of and tamed the wild creatures of the moorland. And does not that homely statement apply to all situations where mutual trust and co-operation are needed? Indeed, it is being more widely recognized to-day that the success of negotiations between individuals, groups and nations depends upon each side being “friends for sure.” Friendship, then, in its deeper and fuller sense is a very important factor in the world. In its Christian aspect it has its foundations in love, and constitutes a. channel for service of incalculable worth. Ideal friendship consists of a pure love that liberates and calls forth worth-while accomplishments; it is the overflow of an unselfish heart. A friendship based on spiritualized affection will furnish proof of its existence and utility quite spontaneously. A heartfelt desire to give loving service will be expressed tactfully, and may be ac- cepted naturally and gratefully, inspiring all concerned to the working of a greater good. The influence of honest and loving friendship, which fosters the highest ideals of Christlikeness counts for a great deal in the World to-day. â€"â€"Christian Science Monitor In motoring through the countryside one is often cur- ious to know who is the owner of a particular farm. You pass the property occasionally for years and never know who lives there. Then one day you accidentally discover that the owner is a man you knew and meet occasionally. Too bad you have not. been able to link him up in your mind all this time with the fine farm he owns. One would think that pride of ownership in a well-kept property would stimulate the owner to let the world know who lives there. But too often there is no sign on the gate, or the mail box to indicate the name of the occupant. A beautiful example of friendship, as related in the Old Testament, is the one which existed between David and Jonathan. So tenderly did these young men love each other that David, in retrospect, described the affection of Jonathan in these touching words: “Very pleasant has thou been unto me; thy love to me was Wonderful.” This mutual sense of loving loyalty, just appreciation, and ten- der affection which these friends displayed centuries ago has remained to the present day a beautiful model for emulation. It’s up to theVei'tirzens of each district irf Canada to get together, and get together now, so that when winter comes the foe of want, misery and distress may be repelled. A. UULVIAA- “All of us” said the Governor General, “are familiar enough with the outward physical signs of those upon whom circumstances have thus laid a crushing handâ€"the worn clothing, the drawn faces, the slackening footsteps of those whose strength and hope are gradually being sap- ped in the struggle to find work; to find a natural outlet for their own activity, and the means of support which in normal times, that activity should bring them. “But what is not realized so easily perhaps, is the parâ€" allel change that goes on in the mind and spirit of such victims of circumstances, whose sense of security has been menaced, even destroyed, by economic disruption and acute personal need. What is not realized, too, is that fear fol- lows upon insecurity, and close upon the heels of fear come worry, anxiety intense mental and spiritual depressionâ€" a sense of frustration, futility and finally despair.” problem: In View of this situation there is peculiar point in the recent address of His Excellency, The Earl of Bessborough to the people of Canada. In his message he stressed the responsibility of the individual, and although he does not mention it, yet there may be understood a slight objection to the tendency developing in the country at large to leave the care of the unemployed and the poor at the door of the government. But Governments are sorely harried by the demands at hand and, in fact, are unable to supply the funds necessary to meet all the demands. Even if they could, the result would mean increased tages. AvvuAI-r "vu-vâ€" _ â€"-_ in. His Excellency quotes, the Prince of Wales’ statement that all should get together in each community and make its own self-directed contribution to the solution of the Despite all that the municipality does in these days of economic distress in the Way of looking after the poor and the needy there is still a great opportunity 'for individuals and societies to exercise the virtue of charity. There per- haps is a tendency to leave the care of the distressed in the hands of the state but continuing from that point where municipal relief stops there is great opportunity for those anxious to render themselves serviceable to their fellow creatures by extending assistance which Will help to make the lives of these people brighter and happier. We are fac- ing another Winter and there is sure to be serious distress. Established 1878 AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT RICHMOND HILL THE LIBERAL PRINTING C0.. LTD. J.

GENERAL CARTAGE by Trqu WM. MCDONALD, Telephone 62. THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO Thomhill, 9n On the whole, R. E. White, Agri- cultured Representative, spoke of the fair as the most interesting and most easily managed fair in his- dis- trict, accountable by the fact of the financial arrangements. Ross Lamoreaux, Milliken, captured the T; Eaton sliver trophy for high- est number of credits; Winnifred Shadllock, Agincourt, and Murra}; Mason, Clark’s Corners, winning 2nd and 3rd. Had there been aS' many schools exhibiting as formerly, the fair would have been: quite up to normal, but under existing conditions, it suffered somewhat. Exhibits were of a splendid type“and variety; the flowers» and fruits good, the drills excellent and well carried out. The pets class was an interesting mixed variety of dogs, cats, rabbits and pigeons. The judges were: Cooking, Miss Helen Baycroft; live stock, Jerry Walker, Donalda Farm; poultry, R. H. Crosby; grains, A. J. Paterson; vegetables, E. H. Holland; fruit, Arch Thomson; flowers, Fred Adams, Tor- onto; choruses, A. J. Woods, Mark- ham. pare, For his squash was bigger than nei- ghbor Wim’s And he took the first prize at the fair. A joint presentation was made by Markham Union and Scarboro Lodges A.F. & A.M. to Worshipful Brother George Scott with regalia in honour of his appointment as a Grand Stewâ€" art in Grand Lodge. The presenta- tion was made at the regular meet- ing of Markham Union Lodge on Pfi- day evening, Sept. 29th. This was- a high honour bestowed on Mr. Scott who is highly thought of 'in lodge and other circles. His many Scarboro, Markham and Toronto friends reâ€" joiced with him on this auspicious oc- casion.

School Fair Owing to financial conditions in the various school sections of Scar- boro being- under the control of super- visors, it was incumbent on each sec- tion to provide funds individually or let the school'fair go by the board. Howeer, the officials of nearly every schoo lsection were sufficiently for- tunate as to find citizens with public spirit to meet the emergency, and volunteer funds, with the result that nine school sections out of twelve were represented with exhibits at the fair held on Thursday, Sept. 28th at Agincourt. Last Saturday night the opening meeting of Knox United Forward Club was marked by a full attendance. The following were elected to of- fice: Hon. Pres, Rev. W. D. McDon- ald; Pres., Marjorie Laing; Literary Vice-Pres, Ida Grose; Missionary Vice-Pres», Ruth Yeamans; Citizen- ship Vice~Pres., Ernest Page; Chris'- tian Fellowship Viceâ€"Pres, Glen Cole; Secretary, Helen Preston; Treasurer, Leslie Page.
