ANDREW'S | i ' YOUNG PEOPLE'S SOCIETY The second of a series of six travel talks to be given during the coming months was delivered by Rev. F. J Maxwell to the Young People of St. Andrew's last night. This series of lectures has been arranged to give an interesting and intimate picture of many of the scenes in England, Scotland and continental Eyrope which wer included in the 'itinerary of Mr. Maxwell and his group of fellow travellers on their recent trip to Europe. From the lofty peaks of the uncertain-tempered ' Mt. Vesuvius our tour wound its way through mountainous northern Italy. Cling- ing to precipitous cliffs and tun- neling miles into the rocks our train bore us onward through al- ternating spaces of bright sun- shine and inky blackness with here and there momentary glances of the azure Mediterranean glimpsed through mighty windows hewn out of the rock until at last we reach- ed the eastern coast of Italy and Venice, the Pearl of the Adriatic gleamed in the sunshine before us. Protected by the Lido, a mighty sandbar almost two miles in length this city of 105 islands, 150 canals and 380 bridges slumbers on the breast of the shining Adriatic. With our gondolier as guide we traversed the Grana Canal, and floated lazily through a seeming endless maze of inter- secting water ways drifting under innumerable bridges and pausing for a moment to gaze reflectively and a little sadly at the "Bridge of Sighs" the corridor of punish- ment for many a hapless prisoner. Our. attention was centred how- ever upon St. Marks And the Piazza, the former thought by many to be the greatest church in the world and the latter the centre of all the galety of gay Venetian life. Here great pageants and con- certs are held and here the 'social activities of the Venetian people find their centre. The cathedral f{tself inspires wonder and admiration for artist and artisan have combined their efforts to produce a thing of beauty. Mosaics that reveal the handiwork of an artist adorn the entrance and it is with reluctance that we turn away. Florence is our next stop and we find & city that expresses its love of Art not oniy on world- famous canvases but in its build- ings and statuary. The home of Dante and Gallileo (science too Las been served by this her son) of Michael Angelo and of Eliza. beth and Robert Browning made its appeal because of the lives of these people who belong not to Florence but to the world. As in the days of her glory all roads led to Rome, so we too turned our footsteps Romeward and the city on seven hills, still clinging to the banks of the his- toric Father Tiber spoke to us, in symbols still majestic, of an em- pire that had once been gloriously dominant. It has been rightly called the "Museum of all the Ages", for here meet mythology, archeology and history in impress- ing review. y The Coliseum first among its marvels covering a land surface of six and one half acres and with a seating capacity of 87,000 people and dating back to the year A.D. 72 when construction was first commenced, awed us by its age alone. The arena which it encloses stirs terrible but wonderful mem- ories of the heroic fate of thous- ands of Christian martyrs sacri- ficed to make a Roman holiday. The Arch of Titus the Appian Way, the Catacombs and the Ro- man Forums spoke in tones but little muffled by 1900 years of the glory of another day. The Via Sacra or Sacred Way winding from the Palatine Hill through the valley of the Forum and upward to the Temple of Jupi- ter seemed in our minds eye to be again peopled with the triumph- ant procession of a returning gen- eral's I8gions and we watched till the last waving banner had passed from our view. \ The appreciation of the Society was expressed by the president, Harold Barclay to Mr. Maxwell for an exceedingly interesting ad- ress. SIMCOE STREET YOUNG PEOPLE There was an enthusiastic turn- out of members of Simcoe St, Unit- ed Church, Young People's Society at their first fall meeting last night. "It was Christian Fellowship night," Rev, Mr. Harston taking the opic. He gave a very interesting ; dealing particularly. with the life of F. W. Lyte, writer of a number of beautiful hymns among which was "Abide With Me," which hymn, Mr. Harston chose for dis- cussion. This hymn, Mr, Harston stated, was written only two months before Mr. Lyte's death at a time when he was in great sorrow. During the evening a number of pleasing instrumental and vocal numbers were rendered which in- cluded a piano selection by Miss Heavy goods take Sumset Dyes as beautifully and per- feectly as light materials... Wodlen garments can be made like new Latimer, a vocal solo by Mr, Peroy Taylor and a cornet sole by Mr. Murray Hainer. Next Monday evening Rev, Dr. Dan Norman returned missionary, will give an address on Japan, il- lustrated with lantern slides, It is expected that there will be a large crowd on hand to hear this very interesting speaker. SRE KING STREET YOUNG PEOPLE The regular meeting of the King Street Young People's League was held on Monday, October 6, 1930, with an attendance of about 75. The meeting was conducted by Art, Wood, leader of Group "D.". The Scripture reading was read by Har- old Barker, followed with a read- ing by Marion Stephenson. A few items of business were brought up by the President, Ed. Kiefaber, after which Mr, Treneeér was called on for a piano solo, Mr. Cragg spoke for a few min- utes. The chairman then called on the speaker for the evening, Dr. Bird, who chose as his subject, "Heredity." His talk was very in- teresting, and was enjoyed by everybody. The meetine was closed with a hymn and prayer.

There was a splendid attendance. Mrs, Frank McLaughlin, president, was in charge of the mecting. There were no bus- iness discussions, The whole of the evening was given over to the child- ren who won prizes at the annual school Fair, There were sixty of them at the meeting. The program was provided by the young prize win- ners. Robert Mackay gave a read- ing, Bobby Luke sang a solo, Jane Luke recited, Moira Thom and Ro- bert Mackay sang a duet and Jean McLaughlin played a piano solo. The feature of the evening was presenta tion of prizes to the children. Mrs. R. S. McLaughliw president of the City Home and School Council did this and at the conclusion of the pre- sentation, spoke to the mothers pre- sent. One thought that was convey- ed in her short address was the sug- gestion that the word, please, be used more often, so that the children would form the habit of using that bit of courtesy which is becoming al- most extinct, The dollar prize went to Miss Doan's class. Lunch was served at the conclusion of the meet- ing.

AL ) / - woo [BURGESS BEDTIE STORIE co) : ® - 6,24 THE HARVEST IS FORGOTTEN Love, then jealousy and rage; You'll find this true in every age. ~0ld Mother Nature. Impy never will forget that morn- ing when the harvest was forgotten, It was early. Jolly, round, red Mr. Sun had only just begun his daily climb up in the blue, blue sky. Early as it was, all of the Squirrel cousins were on hand--at the beech trees. Jack Frost had been very busy the night before, and the little three-cor- nered brown nuts came rattling down with every Merry Little Breeze that passed along. Presently, Lightfoot the Deer appeared. Impy stopped picking up nuts to sit up and stare at Lightfoot for a moment or two. Certainly, Lightfoot was worth star- ing at. Never had he appeared more handsome. His great antlers which some people call horns, although they are not truc horns.at all--had been freshly polished by rubbing on a tree. They made a wonderful crown for his handsome head. The points were sharp. Lightfoot held his head proudly, as he stood testing the winds with his wonderful nose. All the Squirrels stopped gathering nuts just to admire him.

Burgess Lightfoot apoeared to he uneasy. He would put his head down to search for a few nuts, only to throw it up again suddenly to test a Merry Little Breeze that came along and to cock his big ears forward that he might better hear. Once or twice he stamped impatiently. "Isn't he beautiful?" whispered little Mrs. Impy to Impy. "He's the handsomest person in the Green Forest. I wonder what makes him so uneasy this morning? I've never seen him act like this before. Hear him rattle those horns against that tree. What do you suppose makes him act so?" "I don't know," replied Impy. "I guess he's just feeling good. These cold mornings makes a fellow feel good. I feel good Look, Frisky, look!" Little Mrs. Impy, who used to be Miss Frisky, looked where Impy was looking and gave a little gasp of sur- prise. If it were not that Lightfoot the Deer was standing almost in front of her~she would have said that he was over behind a fallen tree a short distance away. She could hardly be- lieve her eyes. There stood a Deery that looked enough like Lightfoot to be his twin brother. He was just as big as Lightfoot and just as hand- some. He was a little younger, per- haps, but he had the same bold ap- pearance and he was staring straight across to Lightfoot. "Look at the hair on Lightfoot's shoulders and along his back," whis- pered Impy. Mrs. Impy looked. That hair was standing right up. She looked across at the stranger. The hair on the back of his neck, shoulders and back was doing the same thing. Something else she noticed also. ~She had often thought how big and soft and gentle looking were the eyes of Lightfoot the Deer. They were just as big now, but they were no longer soft or gentle looking. It seemed almost as if they flashed fire, Certainly they were filled with anger. The eyes of the strange Deer had the same ap- pearance. Lightfoot blew a sharp challenge. The stranger replied, Lightfoot took a few steps forward. The stranger leaped over the fallen tree into the open, facing Lightfoot. Impy looked around hastily. Chat- terer the Red Squirrel was looking down from a branch almost above Lightfoot and had forgotten that there was such a thing as a harvest. Happy Jack Squirrel was sitting up in a crotch of a tree, with his eyes round with excitement. He, too, had forgotten the harvest. It was the same way with Rusty the Fox Squir- rel. The very air was filled with ex- citement. y (Copyright, 1930, by T. W. Burgess) The next story: "The Battle of the myself. Beechnuts."

Can you imagine playing bridge at a party and being silent? Well, that is what you must do if you are a guest or the hostess at a silent Hal- lowe'en bridge. Invitations come first. Write them in the following rhyme upon an orange colored correspondence card, folded in the centre and cut out double to resemble a pumpkin, Upon the inside write this: Dear Mrs. Dixon Please come to Hallowe'en And we'll put the spooks to rout But bring a sheet of ghostly white To wrap yourself about.

Wednesday (Our Last Half-Holiday for this Season) But One of 'the Biggest "HALF DAY SALES Put on by This Store Featuring Silk Lingerie, Hosiery, and Silk Mufflers See Our Windows--They tell the story better than any description we can give you. Prices show our determination to make this sale remembered by alll ~ -- - men are directed by a sign-post to one room, ladies to another. In each room they read placards telling them what to do. "Wrap yourselves in your sheets and gather at the Bridge tables." "Speak not a word after leaving this room." "Pick your own partners." "Upon the front window sill are black masks--put them on." Disguise yourself as much as pos- sible." These directions are in both rooms. The hostess should furnish extra sheets if they are needed. It is sur- prising how quickly everyone will get into the spirit of the thing, and after donning the black hali-masks many of the guests will paint their faces in such a bizarre way as to be almost unrecognizable. In the centre of each Bridge table is another sign which recads--""Re- main silent until 9.30 or a forfeit must'be paid!" Write your bid upon your score card if necessary." One can casily imagine how comi- cal it is to see these sheeted silent ghostly figures raising three fingers and desperately writing "Diamonds" or signifying by a wave of the hand that they disdain to bid at all. If anyone he ten speaks, loses characteristic | points from his score, At 9.30 sharp an alarm clock rings and the guests are allowed te releive themselves of any conversational bits they have been keeping in reserve. As d result of the enforced silence--bedlam lets loose and everyone talks at once. A pocket dictionary is given to the person who kept still, the longest, with the suggestion that it is used audibly.
