The trees, now decked in red and gold, Their splendour soon will shed; But do not thfnk on winter days, Their bare black boughs are dead. Though autumn comes when few birds sing, New life will stir again in Spring! The last two weeks of September we have had marvelous weather for Lindsay Lindsay Fair and the International International Plowing Match. However, the water level is going down ip the wells and farmers are buying tanks of water. Sunday was a perfect autumn day with the trees in their beautiful colours. Some of us attended three services. First the very fine anniversary anniversary service at Kirby, then the morning baptismal service service at Kendal, and in the afternoon the Durham County Orange Lodge Service at Newtonville. The male choir is practicing each Sunday evening in Kendal Church for the Anniversary at Kendal on October 21st.

The scripture reading was Colossians 1:18-29. .Paul writes this letter to a church he has never visited. He tells them that he, is bound in chains but he realized the word of God is not bound. Their church was founded by A lay person. Epaphras began by gathering people together in the home of another layman. The church at Colos is a flourishing church. He warns them of the impending danger of Jewish law coming into the church or the ways of the gentiles corrupting their church. They are not the church of the Jewish. or gentile world but the church of the living God. In verse 24 by becoming a part of the church they must suffer. The end is rejoicing because they can suffer for Christ. There, was joy and sorrow all through Christ's ministry. "Can e're such love and sorrow meet or thorns compose compose so rich a crown". George Matthewson wrote the hymn in 1882, "0 love that will not let me go. 0 joy that seekest me through pain". Perhaps that is what Paul tried to tell us. To die that we might live. God is interested in what, we can do for his Kingdom not what we can't do. Among the guests at our church were Mr. and Mrs. Alex Savage of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Sherbrooke, Sherbrooke, Quebec.

Over a century ago George . Johnston fell in love with Margaret Clark. They lived in a small village a 'few miles north of Belleville. Their favOurite.walk was by an old griât mill. In fact that is where they took their first walk together. One time while they were still engaged to be married George, in a joking mood, wrote a little poem am gave it to his sweetheart. It went like this: I wandered today to the hill, Maggie, To watch the scene below. The creek and the old rusty mill, Maggie Where we sat in the long, long ago. The green grove is gone from the hill, Maggie, Where first the daisies sprung The rusty old mill is still, Maggie, Since you and I were young. And now we are aged and grey, Maggie, the trials of life nearly done, Let us sing of the days that gone Maggie, When you and I were young. The prophecy failed to • come true. Maggie died within a year of their marriage marriage in Cleveland where they made their new home. Johnston Johnston returned to Canada and became a professor in the University of Toronto. In 1866 Austin Butterfield wrote the music for the song and included it in a book of Canadian songs called Maple Leaves.
