This week we wish to tell of the generoua, help- ful spirt of th-e people in the com- munity of Weston. At two o'clock in the morning Mairoh 21st a strong wind wraipped itsolf , around' the twelve-roomed home of Alvin Top- per, on the Wewton Road, while ten occupants slept soundly within, una- ware that a fire had started' in the basement. As they finally smelt the smoke the ten people hastily grabbed articles of clothing and went out into the frosty night. Nothing of th* home and its contents was left but the foundation. The people of the neighborhood were early on the scene with clothing and food. A small cab- in was donated and brought by tract- or to the property where the fam- ily lived for three month's. In the meanitime a friend with a tractoi shovel cleaned out the foundations for construction of a new home, with neiirhbors vieing in efforts t'> help. Todlay a beautiful seven-room house is nearing comipletion. The kitchen cupboards were donated and built-in bedroom furniture was furnished by- friend's and Tnoich of the decorating done gratuitously and the family can now carry on as before. This is an- other example of that good-will which is to be found everywhere in our country, but is so often un- noticed. â€" Muslkoka Herald. f«ny them as they take up residenco in their new home. â€" Mt Forest Con- Forecast Shows Owen Sound Fair To Be The Best Yet The heiavry list of entries in all sections and classes of prize lists, gives evidence that t^e forthcoming ''Show Windkw of Grey and Bruce," the Owen Sound Exhibition, will be a sensation.

But there is one thing that they for- get, that is the (fact ffliat the 'CJiuieh of Christ has been here over 1900 years, and that it has produced the noblest characters the world has known. The Chiurch of Christ has given us a system' of high morals. Christianity has no rival in our world' of today. Christianity is more than a system of morals. That would be putting it on its lowest level. But when we put on its highest level, It is Good News about the Christ. It is "The power of God unto salvation" to every one who will accept the Good News o' the Gospel. The Ohurch of Christ has no apolo- gy to make for the Goaipel she prea- ches. The Apostles Paiul says, "We aire proud at the Gospel of Ohriat be cause it is the power of God unto Salvation." One value of the Christian Ohmwh to the oommunity it its moral powe and influence for good dean living. It produces strong dbaracters. It builds up i)he type of manhood and womanhood wlhicSi (san be depended upon in tlimes of crisis. Not many of ua wwild want to live fTheitetfore I would ask all non- ohuroh-guers to thfnik on these tsm thoughts, and "Oome tbou with vm and 'we wilil do thee Good". [Have tm not a need of a deeper and mon actiive s(piritaal life? The (Treat need of the greater knowledge of Jesoa itself anew to Christ, and Hia servfea very long in Ithia oomimunity if the Ohurohs were both closed. No one would want to Itting up a family in a Churchless Gommanity. Even the so-called infidel to whom the Ohttrch is such great annoyance, would be careful not to live in a place where there is no churcih. We all seem to sence the great need of the influ- ence of the Ohurcih of Jesus Christ. l^ere are two very good reasons w<hy we sbould SDippcirt the Christian CQiurch. The first of these is the personal ihenefit that we derive froin When you rise in the morning form it. The second is the huspiratioin that I a resolution to make the day a baiffpy we receive that sends us out to help one to a f ellow-icpeature. â€" Syilney others. Smith.
