ONTARIO as our minister stepped into the darkened church, the lights were suddenly illuminated and behold, to Mr. Currey’s complete surprise, the church was filled with members of his congregation, who had gathered to honor him before his departure. After the first shock of surprise had subsided, the National Anthem sung, and a brief sing song enjoyed, Miss Hicks called on her mother, Mrs. Lewis Hicks, who sang, very acceptably, “Friend 0’ Mine". Miss Betty Bone, elocutionist, delighted her audience with the reading, “The Ninety and Nine”. Mr. N. L. Mor- ton, chairman of the Board of Stew-l ards was then called upon. He spoke in glowing terms of the qualities of Mr. Currey and the messings he had brought to the many homes in and around Thornhill. Mr. N. J. Symelliew church treasurer, then presented Mr. Currey with a sulbstantial cheque. This surprise portion of the program was followed iby a piano duet given by Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Davies, en- titled “The King of the Forest”. Mr. John Wiclaett, President of the Y. P.U. spoke on behalf of that organ- ization, and told the gathering how much their minister had meant to them in their meetings and in their lives. Miss Marjorie Jamieson then made the presentation of a beauti- ful finished Morocco leather dress- ing case and Morocco writing case. Mr. Floyd Davies thlen sang “There’s a Land” after which Mr. Wm. Hallaâ€" well. President of the Men‘s Bible Class was called upon to say a few Words. Mr. Hallawell told the peo- ple how a need was felt for a Men’s Bible Study Group in the commun- ity, and how Mr. Currey had so gra- ciously consented to be the teacher. After his remarks and. the presen- tation of an engraved pigskin swag- ger stick 'by Mr. Floyd Davies, on behalf of the memibers, Mr. Currey thanked his congregation for their kindness to him during his short sojourn among them. Rev. A. H. Halbert, of Newtonbrook United iChurch, spoke briefly and after pro- nouncing the benediction, all retired to the Sunday School room where_a social hour was enjoyed, Mr. Currey being the recipient of best wishes from all his church people. “And may God guide his wand'ring steps aright, And keep him safe, his Holy Guard- ian be.” Talking pictures will be held in Lawrence Memorial Hall on Friday. April mm at 8.15. These pictures are entitled “Britain’s Fight for Lib- erty”, a picture showing the sterling qualities of the blood donors. As an extra there is to be another film display entitled “Mr. Proudfoot Shows a Light". These pictures are both patriotic and humorous. Pro- ceeds are for a worthy cause and ‘the programme is under the aus- lpices of the Trinity Women’s Club. The Thornhill Salvage Committee received notice from the Directors of the United Church that due to fire hazard the church shed could not \be used as a salvage depot. However Mr. Edwards immediately offered the barn at the rear of his butcher store for this purpose and his generous and patriotic offer is greatly appre- ciated. Mr. Edwards also collects fats and bones for salvage purposes. Heretofore Thornhill salvage has been collected by trucks and despite repeated requests to have the salvâ€" age ready when the col‘lector called he often had to wait or call back. This made the collection very costly because the trucker was paid by the hour. This is everylbody’s war and it is time individuals were doing- their full share of helping to win it. The new salvage committee has provided this central depot and the least the pub- lic can do is bring their own salvage to this depot. Full instructions will be delivered to every household of the village and district and enthusi- astic co-operation is anticipated. Any further information may be ob- tained by phoning Mrs. R. H. Neill, Thornhill 112. Mr. W. A. Cameron will organize the Bayview district and Mr. Geo. Lake is managing the disposal of the salvage. Our new member of the salvage committee is Rev. Mr. Colcloug'h.

Refreshments were served and the meeting dispersed all feeling a splendid 3 months’ work had been accomplished. vvvvvvvvvvv vvvvvvvaVVVVV----- "Takenéood of Your Clothes War-time economy necessitates the best possible care of clothing, and we offer to the people of Richmond Hill and district an unexcelled Cleaning and Press- ing service.
