When the Algonquins were far from popular or highly regarded by people in general who had little vision into what the days would bring forth, Gerald and Lionel Charlebois stood by the regiment through thick and thin and did more than their part to win confidence and regard for the Algonâ€" quins. When war did come, Gerald went overseas with the famous Quebec Regiment, the Vingt Deux, at the outâ€" break of the struggle.

The chicf Easter mesâ€" sage he delivered in the words, ‘"Christ Arisen, means to the world new hope for mankind." TLife, the speaker said, should be repâ€" resi>nted not as an oval, as taugh‘t by Buddha, but as an egg â€" the symbol of life to come. Touching on sonte of the established Easter customs, ‘ Rev. Mr. Thompson mentioned that the use of "Easter eggs" went back through the centuries Six hundred years ago the reason given for the tinting of Easter eggs was that the colours representedl% the treasures in the life to come. Easâ€" ter typified the triumpm of love over selfishness, greed, misery, sin, death itself. Easter was the proof that there was new birth, new opportunity, new hope. Love was the essential for ail| true happiness. "As a nation and as| individuals we know how to suffer, buc' do we know how to live?" asked the' speaker. can we make use of our abilities to show our love for other men?" he asked. ‘"The way of Christ," he said, ‘"is the way of triumph for the world." Life is not a bubble that ends at death, the speaker urged earnestly, but it does go on as shown by the Resâ€" urrection, and the Risen Christ is the sole hope of the world. "Christ is risen, indeed!" he concluded. Rev. J. C. Thompson, of South Porcupine, Delivers Inspirâ€" ing Address at Easter Monday Luncheon of Timmins Kiwanis. Sergt.
