It was a no-man's land as far as law and order was concern- efi. Fun loving settlers came from all sides through the bush to enjoy weekend sprees.

Holy Communion Service Conducted At » AJAX (Times-Gazette, Staff Re- porter) -- The service of Holy Communion was conducted by the rector, Rev. R. E, Armstrong at 14 am. Sunday morning at the Church of the Holy Trinity. For his sermon Mr. Armstrong chose the gospel for the day which was about the ten lepers that were healed by Jesus. "The only one that returned to Jesus was the one you would least expect, a Samari- tan, later of the Jews. Yet he alone was the one who came and gave thanks to God. What I'm leading up to," continued Rev. Armstrong, "Is that it is the most unlikely people who give the most service to God. The likely ones are the ones who say when asked to do a job, 'Oh, no 1 couldn't do that.' It's not that they don't want to, it's just that they don't feel capable of doing it, but Ged gives us strength to do these Every Christian is called upon to do a job and it is a Christian's duty to help others to become se Holy Trinity Parents of 'the morning Sunday | School children are reminded that the first Sunday School of the sea- son is not at the usual time, but at 3:00 p.m. on Sept. 16th. for all classes.

To end the interview, God told him to use the rod as a sign of author- ity. This story illustrates' that al- though some Christians may not have any great talents God ex- pects us to use the tools which are at hand to extend His Kingdom.
