The ministers at this time were Revs. Richard Jones, John Hunt and E. B. Ryckman, J. Musgrave, Lewis Warner, Samuel Rose and J. Blackstock. Seventeen years after its founding (it. 1857) the original church build- ing (which was situated at Finch’s Ave.) was moved by oxen to the ,rear of the new white brick church on the prosent site for a S. S. room. The land was given by Mr. Thomas Davison. At the Dedication services 'of the new church Rev. Enoch Wood, Rev. Richard Jones and Rev. Will- iam Ryerson were the special preach- ers. The church was opened in the lwinter. Two Sundays were required Ifor the purpose. The people came in sleigh loads, three times each Sunday. The congregation continued ito grow and it was considered the :strongest charge for many miles a- ground. The choir, led by Arthur L. [Wilson for years, was noted for its , ab‘lity. i The Sunday School, which was a Ldeciding feature in the y the formal oponing.

It was thought that tramps had slept in the shed and dropped lighted matches among the old‘ shingles. The present structure was built in 1888. It was remodelled in 1931. The widening of Yonge St. made this necessary. The S. S. room was also enlarged. In Sept, 1937, the S. S. room, kitchen and vestry were newly decorated in a light buff shade and the woodwork in brown, the expenses of this being fully met. A better lighting system was also installed in the S. S. hall. The vari- ous groups in the church are well organized and doing good work which is very encouraging to congre- gation and pastor. The Ladies’ Aid now called the W0- man’s Association is worthy of men- tion as it has stood by the church throughout the years. It was or- ganized in 1899. Mrs. (Rev.) G. W. Stephenson was its first president and Mrs. H. B. Schmidt its first treasurer and has continued since to be one of its valued members. The first Ladies’ Aid meeting was held at the Parsonage ,ing ladies present: Mrs. G. W. Ste- phenson, Mrs. H. B.

You’ll be surprised at the number of people ,who really want you to have a telephone. Many of them don’t even know you but they’re in- terested nevertheless because of what your tele- phone means to their service. Too few tele- phones curtails service and the value of each individual instrument as well. The more tele- phones in service, the greater the value to each user. From the viewpoints of both service cost and service scope, every farmer is interested in seeing that every other farmer has a telephone. NEW LOW RATES for farm telephone service are now in effect?
