Stepisen Sa: well delivered tise sermon on b] theme "Carry On". Life bas coi situted a problem to tise your people of tais generation, and nc theme have been added tise con plicatio' of war. But we youî people must face tise fects TI coming genemation faces a chsan i.ag world. Ib may be that e sim 1er way of life must be voluntari adopted. One of tisese cisang * will be a re-armed democrac charged with the responsibility of policing the world, and assistingI in the social and economic recon- struction of the lands devastated by a war. Why do we want peace?I Is at just that we may have leisure to go on an the same old paths, of sin, tolerating and encouraging the very social evils that constant- jly threaten our liberty and peace, end lead us ultimately to war again? The world the coming gen- eration faces is a changing world, but it as a challenging world. There as the challenge of right things wrongly used. With what equipment must youth be pro- vided to face this new era suc- cessfully-a decisive victory; the ridding of the root of selfishness in the human heart; and the op- portunity and encouragement to learn the dignity of toi].. We must nurture a simple trust in God and have faith in his providence. The way may be dark ahead, and we 3cry out in fear "I cannot see", but there is a voice, not of man, but of Omnipotence that answers, "But I can" in the strength of whose arm both youth and old age to- gether can safely trust. Special music was rendered by the choir. and Miss Loretta MIc Dougaîl, Peterboro, sang "God eUnderstands." e The delegates gathered at 2.30 ,f p.m. for the closing session of the congress. Members of Lindsay Presbyiery led in a brief worship period. Bill Weir was chairman at the open forum. The reports of the administration groups were dreceived. tosÏWe express our sincere thanks United Church, who were our -hosts, to the people in the sur- ýrounding districts of Bowmailville, Zwho also assisted in billeiing the )_ delegates, to our iheme speakers, 'eRev.
