ArmisticeDay in London was récalled by Mr. Langdon in an address that had much effect on the high school students. He spoke of the change in the name of the day from Armistice day to Reâ€" membrance day and pointed: out that "remembrance‘"‘ was much more in the best spirit of the age. Every man and woman has a duty to do in furthering the interests of his country, Mr. Langâ€" Mr. Boyce illustrated his remarks with true storiss of the fine men who went to the last war and of those who did not come back. .Heâ€"said it was a shame people of such calibre should be killed for no good purpose. â€" Rey. Mr. Tait‘s message was threeâ€" fold. said that the day stood for three great things: remembrance of the sacrifice of those who have gone on the duty owed by all to comâ€" munity, church and school; and the hope that war may ‘ze oblitsrated through a better understanding among all people. Father Martindale stressed the fact tat all must be kindly in this life in crder that the peace of th> world be maintained. Inability to see the other‘s pomt of view leads to much of the "causes" over which wars are fought, hs said. From the portion of scripture read, Mr. Kseeley chose a sentence and said that charity and common sense could make it possible for the world to avoid any conflict or any lack of balance in the internationdl structurs. Peace among nations was the theme of an appropriate Remembrance Day ceremcony at the Schumacher High School on Tuesday aftrrnoon. Visitors to the school for the occasion were D. E. Keelely representing the high school board, Father Martindale, Rev. Murâ€" ray Tait, P. A. Boyczs of the Schuâ€" macher public school, and W. O. Langâ€" done, from the Canadian Legion.

Not six months ago people had spokâ€" en of future events and future wars and the question had been prefaced by the preposition ‘"if," but today that preposition has given way to the quesâ€" tion "when." He urged upon the peoâ€" Had Great Britain been armed as it should have béen on the eve of the major conflict the loss of life would have been materially reduced and the battle much shorter lived. At the present. time he observed the pzople were observing Armistice: Day, which was after all but a temporary cessation of hostilities. Taking for his text, verse 21, chapâ€" ter 11, ‘of the gospel according to St. Luke: "When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace," Rev. Mr. Bull, chaplain of the Sudbury company of the Algonquin Regiment, urged the necessity of a strong defence and charged that Great Britain toâ€"day was only 70 per cent. as strong as it was in 1914 on the eve of the Great War. He contended that had Great Britain been fully armed on the eve of the Gréat War that great catastrophe would never have overtaken the world. But instead, the Angloâ€"Celtic and Saxon people let it be known that they hated war and urged by a pacific pulpit and press lay down their arms until they were unprepared for the events of 1914. Blaming pacifism in the pulpit and press for ‘Britain‘s unpreparedness in the Great War, Rey. P. F. Bull, rector of the Church of Epiphany, at Sudbury, in a militant sermon Sunday morning heard by the members of the Canadian Legion and "A" Company of the Algonâ€" quin Regiment on the occasion of the annual â€"Armistice Day church parade, urged a programme of defence upon the British Empire, particularly Canada.

"It is a great thought," he said. The number of thoss who returned from the war is diminishing and their duty toâ€"day is to educate the children of the country never to forget those who died for Canada and the Empire, he reminded them. , During the singing of "God Save the King," militiamen once more presented Rev. Bruce Millar referred to the words of Prime Minister W. L. Macâ€" kenzie â€"King on his return to Canada from the League of Nations assembly, and to the thoughts expressed by Louis Pasteur 50 years ago at the conclusion of the Francoâ€"Prussian war when he said the world faced two contrary laws: the law of blood and destruction and death, and the law of peace and work and health. The "humanity of life" had emerged victorious from the last war, he said, in making a plea to all to cast in their lot with humanity for "peace, sanity and true progress." Remember the Living After the singing of "Abide With Me," Austin Neame, president of the Legion, congratulated th> organizations who turned out to honour the day. "Yesterâ€" day and this morning you have rememâ€" bered the living," he said.

May Build Mrrnorial Mayor J. P. Bartleman told the gathâ€" ering that the Legion hoped "to erect motreâ€"appropriate memorial in memâ€" ory of thoss who sacrificed their lives" in the war. "Let us resolve to uphold the ideals for which our Canadians died," he said, "and respect and honour those who are still with us." T‘wo Thousand at Remembrance Event The latest story to come from Kirkâ€" land Lake is to the effect that a clerk in the R. A. Trussler store in that camp one day last week was carrying a bunch of bananas from the store to the storeâ€" house, when another clerk noticed that live tarantula spider was clinging to the fruit. There was naturally some excitement for a time, but eventually through the coâ€"operative effort of some of the other ‘clerks, not to mention sticks used cautiously, the spider was forced into a tin box which was very hastily covered with cellophane. The spider could thus be closely studied without danger. The fact that the spider was chilled by the Northern atâ€" mosphere, and consequently somewhat sluggish, made it easier and safer for those making the transfer from â€"the banana bunch to the tin box. Once in the box the spider came in for a lot of study and comment. The general cpinion seemed to be that it was a reâ€" pulsiveâ€"looking gentleman. It was deâ€" scribed as brown in colour and covered with silky hair. When its legs were exâ€" tended it would cover an area of fully five inches in diameter, the accounts say. Probably furth*®r description would only mean that some scientific gent would come forward to say that was not a tarantula spider. Even if the boys could prove it was a tarantula, then scmeone would be asserting that the tarantula is a harmless insect and not the peisonous reptile of average imagâ€" ination. There have been a couple of these tarantula spiders found on fruit coming to Timmins in years past, but there was also always someone to say they were something else. Life‘s like that.
