BROWN, Representative Office Telephone No. 744 DECORATION DAY AT BOWMANVILLE HELD ON SUNDAY Large Gathering Paid Hom- age to Memory of the . Departed With all the blessings that na- ture can bestow---bright sunshine amid blue skies, and mid-summer warmth tempered with, cooling zephyrs--hundreds of citizens of Bowmanville, the surrounding community and former residents, found their way to Bowmanville's beautiful cemetery on Sunday af- ternoon; with solemn mien but with love and sacred thoughts 'n their minds and hearts for loved ones gone on before, this vast throng were there, each with a single purpose in view -- to pay homage to their departed dead by their acts of public worship in prayer and praise and by the placing of wreaths and flowers or those whom they held dear in life. In the shade of pines and Ie cust trees a platform had been erected near the centre of the cemetery for those taking part in the service, and &#% the service progressed many misty eves look- ed through the vista of trees thirking of yesteryear as they gazed to those grey monuments which marked the resting place of friends and loved ones--some loved and lost long since awhile, TO-NIGHT At 8 p.m. --Hear-- Rev.

Long Procession Forming in line at the central school grounds and headed by the legion band, the procession first proceeded to the cenotaph where a wreath was deposited by Reeve T. H. Lockhart and by Maj. W. J. Hoar, on behalf of the 'Legion and last post sounded. The parade then proceeded to Lhe cemetery in the following order: town council and civic officials, 1st Bowmanville troop Boy Scouts, Canadian Legion, Sons cf England, Boys of the Training School, Fife and Drum and; Or- ange Order Oddfellows, Bow- manville Fire Brigade, busses and autos. Rev. W, J. Todd, of St. An- drew's Presbyterian Church, opened the service with prayer, following which, lead by the band, the hymn "What a Friend We Have In Jesus," was sung. The Lord's Prayer was repeated in unison and the responsive reading of the 90th Psalm, was lead by Rev. A. S. Kerr, of St. Paul's United Church. For the scripture readings, 1 Cor, 15:35- 49 was read by Rev. E, F. Arm- strong of Trinity United Church and Rev, 7:9-17 was read by Capt. Dorothy Smith of the Sai- vation Army. A male chorus under the direction of Francis Sutton, Mus. Bac.,, was a lovely number on the program and the hymns "Sun of My Soul," and "Abide With Me," as sang by the assembly and led by the band, were most appropriate and sang with much feeling. Reeve Lockhart spoke Owing to the absence of Mayor George James, who was to have given the address, this was very creditably taken by Reeve T. KH Lockhart, who was chairman of the cemetery committee in mak- ing arrangements for the meui- orial service 'in conjunction with the ministerial association, and who along with his other duties in connection with the service had only a few hours for prepar- ation. In his opening remarks the Reeve said it was not a time nor place for any lengthy ad- dress, but since entering the morial gates his thoughts had wirned to that passage of scrip- ture in which God addressed the noblest of men, "Take off thy shoes from off thy feet for where- on thou gtandest is holy ground." "That should be our attitude, our feeling today, for there is none of us but has lost a friend, or a loved one and we are here to pay them homage in this holy ground by placing a wreath or a flowgr on their grave. = We are remind- ed of the days they were with us, those dearest on earth, and may this service prove an inspiration for us to live as we should, and may we feel that the departed are with us, guiding us on in the spirit, and may we realize, bes' of all, that God is with us." Prayers were read by Rev, C. R. Spencer; of St. John's Angii- can church and the 'last post" was sounded by B. Berry, who also rendered a similar service at the cenotaph. The colors were BROS.

"Now, at the beginning of June, we have cleaned off all our debts and leave with nothing but an over draft at the bank of $250,--and yet some one was kind enough to say this Church was never in a worse | state than it is at the present. 1 am glad I did not go to the tame mathematical teacher as she did said Mr. Cragg. Growth of Church He referred "to the tremendous growth in the attendance at com munion during his ministry, and also the fact that "over 850 new members have been publicly re- ceived into the church" while he stated "up to the end of May, counting from September last, we have had thirty-five different ser- vices, on thirty-five Sundays, at which there has been a over-flow congregation." Mr, Cragg expressed his appre- ciation of the loyalty of his people, stating "I fully appreciate your love and sympathy, but will never be able io express that appreciation adequately, "We must thank God, take cour- age, and whatever the future may hold for us we must remember that 'all things work together for good to those who loved God'", Presentation Made Following the regular service, and just prior to the pronounce- ment of the blessing, R.
