In line with these ideas, the children of the Thornhill Kindergarten visited the local fire hall and were inspired to make their own fire engines out of boxes, spools, red paint, etc., at the school.

And one popular quick lunch is big bowls of hot soup and a dessert. A good combination or this type is vegetable soup and apple pie. Individual Meat Loaves: Next time you’re making meat loaf, pack the meat mixture in muffin pans so you have individual loaves. And for a special sauce to pour on at serv- ing time. heat cream of mushroom soup. Measuring Tip: There are 1%, cups of soup in each can of the con- densed soups.

OAK RIDGES & LAKE WILCOX NEWS Due to the tremendous success of the euchre and cribbage parties sponsored by the Lions Cluo it has decided to hold them regulaly twice a month on the first and third Mondays. Last Monday's ev- ent was under the direction 03 Harry Hutchison, Walter Geary and Ken Farquharson. The affairs have become popular not only as ne'ighbourly “get togethers” but are a source of enjoyment for the mtire family. Many young people have been noticed among the en- thusiastic players eager contestants against “Mom and Dad” for the evening’s prizes. When President Calvin Cool- idge died suddenly of a heart attack his wife was the first to find his body. She announced the calamity to his secretary and others in these simple words:“My husband is dead.” He had been President of the world’s greatest republic; dignified and disting- uished but in the eyes of this fine Woman who had shared his career, lhe was always just : “My hus- band.” When people want to pay a man a real compliment, what do they say? Rarely, if ever, do they talk about his eloquence or brilliance or sagacity. No, they pay him this tribute: “He is so human.” In their estimation that is the top rung of the ladder. He doesn’t high-hat common people or look down his nose at them ; keep them at arm’s length and make them feel insignificant. He is one of them and they are at perfect ease with him. When we say a man is human we mean that he has weaknesses common to all and that he knows it, and admits There are some situations which make it difficult for men to be natural. Unusual prominence in almost any sphere is apt to go to men’s heads andgive them an exaggerated idea of their import- ance. It may be that they don‘t want to be snobs; they just want to be dignified. it. He is a snob. Queen Victoria once decmred that of the scores of clergymen she had known who were appoint- ed bis‘hops, only one retained his humility; all the others were spoiled by their elevation, they lost touch with the common people. It takes a big man to remain friendly, modest and human when he is constantly being reminded of his gifts and position. The late Will Rogers did it. He was one of the most gifted men alive, but he could laugh at himself. When a university wanted to con- fer a doctor’s degree on him he laughed at them and turned it down. “The only degree I feel entitled to,” said Will, “is D. A. “Doctor of Applesauce!" People tried to lionize him and make him a social success. Others actually tried to have him run for U.S. President. He laughed at them and said: “Don’t be foolish. I am just a cowboy who has had a. little bit of success, but one thing I will say is that I never hated anybody, nor have I ever met a. man I didn’t like. 0N BEING HUMAN CORRESPONDENT:-â€"MRS. DOROTHY BARKER the direct opposite of Telephone Aurora 5341 Lion E. C. Hawman says that plans are under way for the forth- coming birthday party in celebra- tion of Charter night. The club, which is a mere toddler, having almost reached its first anniver- sary is never-theâ€"less a mature organization with a long list of charitable undertakings to its cred- it. The Bishop of Toronto, The Rt. Rev. A. R. Beverley, D.D., will of- ficiate at 3, Confirmation Service at All Saints Church, King, on Sunday evening next, February 25, at 7 p. m. Candidates will be presented from St. John’s Church, Oak Rid- ges as well as from All Saints Church, King. Following the ser- vice a reception will be held in the Church Room. Johnny Gallagher proved his salesmanship ability by selling the greatest number of tickets for the euchre and cribbage party sponsor- ed last week by the Scout Group Committee. The prize awarded to the boy who created the best poster announcing the event went to Jack Wright with Norman Roberts win- ning the second prize. Capt. E. C. Hawman and the members of his committee assisted by the Ladies Auxiliary were de- lighted with the success of the ev- ening and the proceeds, which prov- ed a welcome addition to the scout fund. The prizes for the evening were won by Mrs. Stewart Acheson first for euchre with Mrs. Gallagher sec- ond. Bob Woolley Jr. first and Mrs. Comfort second playing the |hand of a gentlman. Mrs. W. Hudâ€" son consolation. Cribbage prizes were won by Danny Geary and John Obee first and Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Rowe second, consolation Miss Edith Geary. The many friends and neighbors and customers of Charlie Connor, popular Oak Ridges merchant, will be glad to learn that he has returned from Toronto wher 'he has been a patient in Wehesley Hospital. Mrs. Jac‘k McKenzie recently appointed to the teaching staff of the Oak Ridges school, is ill. Mr. and Mrs. McKenzie were staying with ’Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Gam- ble who suffered attacks of ’flu. Young Wendy Gamble is the lat- est victim at Valley Field Farm. Fourth place in the open class for operatic singers at the Ki- wanis music Festival being held this week in Toronto was won by Anne Stephenson. Will had some Indian blood in him and, so far from being ash- amed he boasted about it. A lady trying to impress him, said: “My forefathers came to America on the Mayflower,” “Is that so,” replied Will, “My forefathers were already here to give them a welcome.” We always feel a little closer to even great men if we know a little about their daily life. For instance, Sir Walter Scott wrote many of his books when he was racked with pain; as did Robert Louis Stevenson. Charles Lamb was a chronic invalid, and Shakes- peare was so hard up he was compelled to sell some household furniture. It is said about Jesus that, “he was tempted in all points like as we are, yet without sin.” It is this human side of Jesus which has endeared him to humanity; just to know that He shared our common lot and understands how we are tempted and tried. One day Jesus faced an extra- ordinary congregation: “Then drew near him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.” These listeners were the social and religious outcasts of the city. They were probably men and women of coarse speech and hab- its; with little touch of what we call refinement. What would one expect Jesus to say to such a motley crowd? Jesus preached to them about the infinite love of God; his mercy and his forgiveness. To them Jesus told three stories; The Par- able of the Lost Sheep-The Lost Piece of Silver, and the Parable of the Prodigal Son. And so, to a congregation of outcasts, viewed with scorn by the social and re- ligious leaders of his day, Jesus talked with infinite tenderness. The three words most often used by Jesus were: the last, the least and the lost. Here is the human side of Jesus and the very heart of Christian teaching. From org- anized religion which sometimes becomes perfunctory and lifeless, we turn to the warm humanity of Jesus and sing Faber’s hymn There is no place where earth’s sorrows Are more felt than up in heaven; There is no place where earth’s failures Have such kindly judgment giv- ‘V‘Go‘d must love common people, He made so many of them." . Our quotation today is mg by Abraham Lincoln a say- There will be an evening seivice at Thornhill United Church next Sunday at 7.30. A religious film, “No Greater Power” will be shown. New Buiding The Building Committee an- nounces that the contract for mov- ing the prefabricated. building from Asbury-West United Church to our site and fixing it to con- form with plans approved by the congregation, has been. let to the McRae Construction Company. Work will begin this week. The girls began a course in Home Nursing on Wednesday, under the direction of Mrs. R. Tamblyn, R. N., graduate of the University of Toronto and former Public Health Nurse. O.G.I.'I‘. Choir Volunteers Needed The Senior Choir is presenting Stainers “Crucifixion” on Palm Sunday and would be glad of vol- unteers to augment its numbers. Choir practice is at 8.15 on Friday. The death occurred on January 31, at the Soldiers Memorial Hos- pital, Orillia, of Miss Carrie M. Robinson R.N. Miss Robsinon, a resident of Richmond Hill before training for a nurse, was assist- ant superintendent at the Orillia General hospital until 1920, ser- ved at the Listowel hospital for eleven years as 151: Superlnten- dent. She later returned to Or- illia to beecme house mother at the nurse’s residence where she remained until ten years ago when she resigned. Carrie M.

Closed Following Acéident New Hairdressing Bu'siness May Reopen Next Week Hard luck has marked the early days of one of Richmond Hill’s newer ventures, the Roylan Hair- dessing Studio, located abcve the Savage’s Men’s and Ladies Wear shop on Yonge Street South. Con- cluding her first week of business, which she described as very satis- factory, Mrs. McVey, the propriet- ress, and her husband were in‘ volved in a motor accident at Oak Ridges in which she suffered an injured leg and he sustained crack- ed ribs. The new studio has been closed since but Mrs. McVey hopes to be sufficiently récovered to re- open next week. Suffering 9.
