Wednesday, June i^» 1924 THS noNtuSBU^K advance: PUREBRED THOROUGHBRED STALLION 'Old Koenig' (1306) Purchased at Saratoga Springs, U. S. A., 1922, for the Canadian Rac- intr Associations, for improvement of the Light Horse of Canada. For the benefit of breeders in this district for the season of 1U24 Koenig will be at the Grand Central Stables, Dundalk, Monday nif^hts up to Tues- day noon and will be at Flcshcrton Tuesday night, Markdalv, Priccville and Durham on regular route. Old Koenig is bay in cofor and a Krand big horse throughout. He elands Iti hands on best of legs and feet. He is a capital race horse. He won upwards of $18,000 during his racing career from 3 to 7 years of age, thus proving his soundness and stamina. His first crop of foals (thoroughbred) were very promising and were purchased by good judges at substantial figures. There has been a great demand on the Jockey Club for suitable sires. The horse is given free but for a nominal fee of $10.00 for the season is charged to cover expenses. R. R. KINNELL, Manager.

This Bank's long experience of financ- ing farm problems is your assurance of co-operation that will be of sound value to you.

While it would not have been exactly heresy to attend worship there, still it was not the home church, to me, and one's loyalty should be directed to one's own church. If one flits from Ma to that and back again it may be to receive something, but there is little opportunity to give faithful service, â€" and I have a sort of suspicion that without it the rest is stale and flat. My earliest recollections go back to a Sunday evening service during the pastorate of the most eloquent man who ever served in the pulpit of the Methodist church at Home. It was crowded. Right up to the side seats that faced the pulpit from the side of the platform, the people were crowded. The little lad sitting there with his father and mother was hard put to see much more than a sea of should- ei-s and heads, with a large man at the front standing behind a box on an elevated platform, â€" ^nd talking. There was singing, and the lights hanging from the ceiling were shedd- ing a drowsy light over the congre- gation, and the air was heavy. But everybody was taking it seriously, with faces turned towards the man at the front. And there was sing- ing. To enter a strange church today is to recall that youthful picture of long ago, â€" and in a bound to go back again to the days that ARK for the youngsters of today. It's a marvel- ous thing! And then, later, there emerges the recollection of the most faithful of all in attendance and service â€" an el- derly childless farmer and his wife, whose voices were distinctly to be heard leading in the responsive read- ing every Sunday morning in the year. His wife, a gifted lady, was an active and tirelets worker and SHINGLES Ready for Immediate Delivery in the yard at Flesherton One Carload New Brunswick White Cedar Shingles Three grades ' EXTRA CLEAR CLEAR SECOND CLEAR Telephone for prices to W.

Great Sale of Rug Ends on June 10th F.T. HILL & Co., Limited, Markdale s sometimes served as a local preacher. It was of her that a later preacher who is recalled with affection spoke one day in his absent-mindedness which came upon him in moments of concentration. The anouncements had been duly delivered, and he had passed on to the order of business under the heading "Reading Scrip- ture", when an overlooked announ- cement recurred to his mind. "And the Lord said unto Moses," read the good man. Then, remem- brance striki g in, he delivered the forgotten announcement without a pause, or break of any sort: "And the Lord said unto Moses; Mrs. Copperson will preach next Sunday." And all unconscious of the way it sounded resumed his read- ing of the scripture, and passed on to the scholarly sermoii. History reveals the fact that the remarkable prophesy to Moses was fulfilled, and Mrs Copperson actually did preach tho followng Sunday. The faithful were the elderly ones; they the pillars of the church, â€" of course, one adds. And th- elect of these foregathered in the class meet- ing that dwindled down from room to room until it finally died of mal- nutrition. These "elects" who re- mained faithful to the end of the classâ€" or of themselves â€" were not of necessity the larger contributors to the funds of the churt-h. .Somehow it seemed to work out that those who had small means gave themselves loyally, while those of larger means seemed to find their duty done when their money had spoken. Why, I shall not strive to explain; but they both had their place, one to supply the spirit and the other the substance. One's mind goes back to the time when the present structure was being built. One of the main con- tributors discovered that it was planned to have two side entran- ces to the church, and whether he thought there should be only one door to the ear'.hly temple as to the Temple-to-Come or not, I cannot say â€" but he blocked the nlan by the threat of the withdrawal of his money. It was probabl" as much to mollify the good man as a desire to get his money that his br3thren of the Board allowed his irascibility to bear fruit in the changed plans. In the course of years, however, justice triumphed and the contribu- tor of bad grace was over-ruled â€" the central doorway was bricked up, and a new door placed at either side of the church. And so it stands. It is to be questioned if the old does not exist to a degree today as it did when the church was built, â€" though the strong-minded brother went to his reward yearsago, and his body lies in state in the only vault of the wayside cemetery on the hill, just beyond the swamp. The life of the person might not be a bed of roses today if he were not a man of grace, and gifted with the gift of gifts: tact: There are those in the fiock who c-uld not (and would not) worship in their church if it were to be joined in union with the Presbyterian church; and it has been said that there are like-minded ones in the flock that worships on the top of the other hill. This is one side of it. The other is the daily life of the aged elect who seem to go behind the creeds to principles, and fail to see the tre- mendous obstacles apparent to others. And . then there is the re"gular at- tendant who never attends. Para- doxical, but a fact. His testimony does not stop at creeds, either. For many years he has been an invalid and shut out from church, and yet whom to visit is as good as an hour in church itself: He is ah'.s to wor- ship nly in spirit. Perfection of the telephone led the mechanically inspired dentist to put in one-way phones from pulpit to couch, (one way, bec'auss one never "talks back" to the preacher), and since then the invalid has listened to three sermons a Sunday â€" two Methodists and one Presbyterian. He is considered one of the flock by both churches, and enjoys the fell- owship of two congregations. His testimony, lying there on the couch in his own home, is that it is imposs- ible to distinguish the Methodist and Presbyterian sermons from each other. He has been an inspir- ing example of church union since before the question was raised in the church councils.
