THURSTON, - Aisoc Editor A UAl'I'Y NEW YEAIl ANOTHKR MIRACLE With this issue The Advunce fin- ishes the yuai- 1932 with the hopt .liat all our readers liavc had a Meirj i.hri.stmas and that the coming year will bring to them their measure of happiness and prDspority. The pul>- lishinj? business, like others, has been iraujjht with many difficultii--', in- dudiniir redij-'cd, income from suh- scriptions, advertisinp and jol) worl<, b^t we have been able to carry on. Our aim i.s to publish a local paper with a. view point of its own, and also give the news of the district in an interesting form. We wi.sh al this moment to thank our lartje fam- ily of news tjatherers in this district for their o.\cellent work in reporting incidents in their own communities :ind their aid in making the paper uf more local intercut. Their work is appreciated, not only by us, but by many ot hundreds of readers, who consider the local paper as a letter from home. Again we wish all our readers health, happiness and prosperity in the coming year. An epoch-ma rkinK event took place on Sunday last when the British eni- piiv held cdniiiiunion with itself, in- cluding all the empire po.sse.ssionf around this old hemisphere, and wound i.p the discussiun with a mes- â- >iiKe of Kood cneer from his majesty, Kinjf (ieorife, at SundrinKham, Knx- land. The broadcast came through (|Uite distinctly here, and caused one to wonder afrush at this modi'rn miracle of coniniunication throuKh the ail'. The Kin({'- speech, esi)e:'- ially, was wonderfully clear and dis- tinct . The program included con- ver.sations with different cities in Australia, New Zealand, Cape Town tiihraltur, Port Said, Knjrland and various stations across Canada. This broadcast was the first of it? kind thai has ever taken place, bul is expected to he the forerunner ol many more when certain details have been perfected. In the meantime wt can only tro on speculalinj^ as to thi future possibilities (jf radio broad castinj; and reception. At present "we sec through a glass darkly.' What will life and mankind be like when the vision is made clear and we shall sec "face to face" and thorough- ly understand the marvels of the uni- verse which are gradually being ojn-n- ed uj) to men'.s gaze and for men's exploritation. THE OXFORD GROUP Many readers of the New Outlook, organ of the United Church, were astounded to read in last week's issue a most unsympathetic criticism of the Oxford Group, a band of 70 ot 80 evangelists. They utterly ignore sectarianism and try to carry their messagre to all the people and get down to the fundamentals of relig- ion. Probably 'JU per cent, of the United Churches of Toronto opened their doors to these enthusiastic Christian ladies and gentlemen, and the severe criticisms of their church organ has given them a painful and decided shock, for, after all, the church membership and public at large are quite capable of interpre- iiiling for themselves the spiritual meaning of the Biblii'al truismâ€" "by their fruits ye shall know them.'' They are also (luite capable of decid- ing the value of the Outlook's opin- ion of the Group. They resent with vigor the charge that the Group acknowledge as tht»ir Bible the book "For Sinners Only." The following paragraph will give an idea of the wari>ed condition of the Outlook editor's mind: "If it was impossible to say much in its favor before we saw it v.ork, it is doubly and trebly imiiossible now." The movement is "specially object- ionable and dangerous" in the editor's eyes. Again "VS'ilhin the memoiy of none of us has the work of the church been so beset with hindrances and problems." "We do not believe it will be made much easier at very many points by reason of their being here, but will he made more compli- cated and dilfic'ult in very many ways through their influences." The Advance would like to point out to the editor of the Outlook that identical arguments were used in the limes of Wesley and Booth, and the churches were quite able to stand up ajfninst their influi-nce, in fut its spiritual life was quickened through their activities. If the church oi !o-day could not do likewise possibly il is because of internal decay and disintegration wouUl be the only log- irnl outcome. But we do not believe that condition of affairs is at all imminent. EDITORIAL NOTES W'hen Premier Henry, a couple ol weeks ago, called upon the churches to combat atheism, the organ of the United Church called his utterances the "joke of the season." From what has before and since occurred iwo rather think he knew what he was talking about. • • • John Foley, editor and proprietor of the Orangeville Sun died last week. .Mr. Foley was a clever newspaper man as was his father before, whom tho editor of this paper had the pleasure of knowing over fifty years ago. In the early days of Orangeville journal- ism John Foley's father was a poitical power to be reckoned with. • * â-  The terribly sordid tragedy which occurred in Owen .Sound recently caused a shudder of horror to pass i)Ver the community. It is hard foi a normal human being to believe that any man can have a mind so waiped as to cause him to commit such a devilish act as this man did. It woidd be interesting to know some- thing more intimate about his home life and the influence exerted upon his mentality in early life. • * 4 Once again we wish to particularly emphasize that the columns of The Advance are equally open for news items from churches or societies of ;ill dononiinalions. It is absolutely impossible for us to have a reporter at all affairs even if wc knew of them in advance. We appreciate the copy furnished by some and would be glad to get the news from all.

At a dance in the town hall on Wed- nesday evening a young man who apparently was the worse ot lieiuor and also became annoyed by some in- cident of the dance, went berserk. .\fter being cheeked as he threatened to follow another young man out ol the hall and make trouble, a scuffle ensued in which he was thrown to the floor, striking his head with such force as to cause a profuse nose bleed. Constable Leitth was at hand and in attempting to stop. the fray was much bespattered with gore, as was also the wMld man's opponent. A few minutes later he rushed up street as far as Olt- sher's butcher shop, where he put both fists through two panes of glass in the shop door, and in doing so was so se- verely cut in the wrist that it required sixteen stitches to close the wound. Besides losing much blood, he wiU probably be called upon to shed some coin as penalty for his rampage. â€" Paisley Advocate.
