Cullen's CASH AND CARRY SALE OF | ABRANSKY'S DOUBLE DISPLAY CAPACITY Now Offer. People of This Dis=| telot. the Very. Finest. in Furniture Disglay Rooms. | Travellers whose regular trips { bring them through Kingston have remarked many times lately that the foo section 'of the city Is ex- | tending steadily uptown. Many new | store fromts and reconstructed | buildings have made their appear- {ance and they continue almost to | | Division street. The latest one of these to open its | doors is the new furniture section of the departmental stores of Joseph | Abramsky and Sons, which has just been completed. Two years ago this | firm went ino the furniture busi- | ness as one of their main departi- | ments and it has grown so astound- | ingly that they were forced to seek | much larger accommodation. To | this end they took over the large | double store below their own and have transformed it into a magn!- | Soon display hall. The keynote of the new store is | brightness and cleanliness. It has | been re-constructed and re-decorat- ed throughout and a beautiful indir- ect lighting system installed, which | shows off all the fine pieces of fur. ll | niture to the full desire of the cus- | tomer. A new heating system has | also been imstalled and everything | done to make the bullding bright | and comfortable. The entire business now occupies | the block of buildings comprised in | Numbers 259, 261, 263 and 263 | Princess street and the three floors | in the block are barely sufficient for | the needs of the huge stock. Sur- | plus stock is kept in the firm's large warehouses on King street east. Abramskys have been fortunate in securing a beautiful assortment from some of the best known furniture makers in America. The solid wood \ suites of that noted Canadian firm, {the Gibbard Furniture Company, | are on display and Abramskys are | sole local agents. In a separate show | room are found Kroehler Daven- | ports and Divanettes, together with | the latest household utility, the bed- | Chesterfield; in another may be found the Barnet line of kitchen | cabinets and an entire display rooni is set aside for a diversified line of Gurney and Happy Thought stoves | and manges. ! The business has expanded, natur- ally and healthfully but in a totally | amazing manner. Onders are receiv- ed from all parts of this district and the present expansion is only | just enough to accommodate the volume. The new show room, one | hundred feet long and thirty feet wide, is something that has been | badly needed by the firm and Rk serves the additional 'purpose of bringing another attractive store front to a rapidly sdvancing part of the business section. Joseph Abramsky started wp in | Kingston about' thirty years ago In | a very small way and he and his sons are to be congratulated on the enterprise and confidence in King- ston's future which has brought | their firm to its present position and has also brought business to King- ston. ---------------- THe BAPTIST ANNIVERSARY Chancellor Whidden, of Mo- Master University, Toronto, Was the Preacher. Rev. H. P. Whidden, D.D., LL.D., chancellor of McMaster University, Toronto, and ex-M.P. for Brandon, Manitoba, was the special preacher at the anniversary services in the First Baptist church on Sunday. Special music was rendered by the choir under the direction of 8. Sals- bury, and Rev. J. 8. LaFlair, the pastor, conducted the services. Speaking in the morning from Philippians 1:21, "For me to live is Christ." Dr. Whidden dealt with the example set by the great apostle St. Paul, who was animated by =a burning zeal to spread the knowledge of Christ whom he had taken as his ideal. He showed how the apostle adhered steadfastly to his ideal. His ambition became the impulse govern- ing all his conduct and it was this that took him to Rome. "It is necessary that we should 'have an ambition in life," said he, Sera ee ae nothing 80 great as winning souls." MONDAY, DECEMBER. 10, 1933, noon, The preacher's evening subject | was, ,"The Natural. Secret of Vie- | tory." This he affirmed to be faith, | which he described as "Life's great- | est driving power," 'by which, in| every realm of life, the greatest! co quests are made possible and ac- [RI Solo parts in the anthems were | taken by Miss Miriam Osborne, Miss | Ruth LaFlair, and Messrs. S. A. Mayer and James Saunders. James | Marshall sang "Consolation" in ex- cellent voice at the evening service. A unique, but much enjoyed fea- ture of the evening service was the combination of the pipe organ and | piano for the leading of the congre- gational singing. Miss Nettie Meikle presided most acceptably at the plano. The offerings for the day were generous, and pastor and peo- ple turn their faces toward the fut- ure with renewed faith and courage, after a day so full of inspiration and blessing. ANNIVERSARY AT COOKE'S Rev. R. M. Hamilton, B.A. Brockville,Was the Preacher of the Day. Bright and inspiring services marked the anniversary observed at Cooke's Presbyterian chureh on Sun- day. Rev. R. M. Hamilton, B.A., Brockville, preached at both. ser- vices, and delivered forceful ser- moms. An exceptionally fine pro- gramme of music was rendered hy the choir. At the morning service, Rev. Mr, Hamilton preached from the words, "Rise, let ys be going," found in the 14th chapter of John. The speak- er gave as the title of his discourse, MOORE'S TOYLAND A land of Dolls--a land of Toys--a land that echoes and re-echoes with shouts of _ childish laughter--that's 'MOORE'S CHRISTMAS SHOW --it's really Santa's pack crammed to overflowing with all the things that make little people happy.

Tricycles, Games, Sets, "The Winding of the Clock." A clock had to be kept wound up in order to keep it going, and so with the church. It was a going concern, and could not be allowed to Fin down. And the watchword today was, "Rise up, Ye men of God." The words of the text formed an appeal from God to His disciples and pre- sented a challenge to the people of the church. It was for the church to carry on God's work and in car- rying on the work, the people of the church would meet with the same encouragement and discouragement as of old The love of pleasure to- day was keeping many people from the church, but the difficulties of the church today were no harder ery in colors; self girdle.

"and whether it be in the commercial or political life we must attach our- selves to a great personality and great principles if we are to succeed. It is just as essential in the religious lite. Take the 'example of our fel- low citizens of the province of Que- bec and their great leader, Sir Wil- fred Laurier. His personality found its way into the inner being of his people and they were willing to sac- rifice anything. It should be the same in the religious life." Dr. Whidden expressed his strong disapproval of the utterances attri- buted to Lord Birkenhead in Secot- {land in which he said that material 'interest was the sole motive fn hu- man conduct, 'Have we reverted to the days of the jungle as to say that the only motive in life is to satisfy INDIAN.
