Connoisseurs of art, antiques and literature came from many out-of- town places, as did art dealers from ,Toronto. The spacious home and grounds were thronged with people all day Friday and most of Saturday. Sales, including property and furnish- ings, aggregated close to $40,000. Auctioneer Ward Price of Toronto told The Examiner late Saturday afternoon when he took a respite to `have a cup of -tea after a strenuous day, that he ` was immensely pleased with results. It was the most successful sale I have held in years. he said. There has never been anything like it in this . district."

He chose his text from Isaiah 62:10, Lift up a standard for the people. He prefaced his message by indicat- ing a distinctive movement in the church approximately every ve hun- dred years. The first of these, he said, was the assertion of Roman suprem- acy in the sixth century. the rupture of the Greek and Roman Churches in the eleventh century. the initiation of the Protestant Reformation in the isixteenth century out of which arose the Orange movement.

Concluding he said it was the duty of Orangemen not to find delight in publishing the sins or mis- conduct of Roman Catholics, but to so purify their personal`and col- lective witness as to attract men, even Romanists, to their standard, by sheer superiority in humility in interpreting the Life and Will of |Jesus Christ. To lift up the true standard for the people was a work in which Orangemen might be tting- ly employed. v.u\.; LL Au-3 1Ca.1 WUIK 15 E0 De done." The minister commended Orange- men for dropping irritating and mean- ingless melodies formerly associated with their celebrations and pleaded that they put off all antagonisms, pre- judices and suspicions and learn to live happily and helpfully even with the members of the Roman Catholic faith. - . -_.--.o. The Political Situation Referring to the present day poli- tical situation Rev. Mr. Baker de- lclared that Orangemen were substan- tially politically fettered while Roman- ists were politically free. Where poli- ticians called the tune, Orangemen danced. Where Romanists called the tune, politicians danced. he said. There was a time in the history of the Order when it was free and fear- less to dictate or impress all parties and party leaders. This day must be recovered by reformation within the Order if its real Work is to be done. Th9 rhinicfnr r.nvn............:_.: A Intimation that political entangle- ments were working harm to the Orange Order was heard from Cen- tral United pulpit last Sunday even- ing when the minister.

Chairman Rogers inquired, receiving an affirmative reply. The firemen ask- ed the press to make it plain that at no time did they contemplate or plan a strike. We simply resigned in a body and gave due notice undertak- ing to give the town fire protection until other arrangements could be made by council, was the statement made.

The man who turned out regularly and saw a fire through from beginning to end, would naturally get more than the fireman who turned up at the scene of a. blaze after it had been practically extinguished. Under the old system such has not been the case. Wh.t if fhnrn own `an G6-nu -J---1--- III MUG UUWM. uuuua.
