;^' \'0L. 56; iNO. 7. WEDNESDAY, JULY 15. 1936 W. H. THURSTON & SON, Proprietor! United Church News Rev. R. G. Service. B.A., was in his j own pulpit on Sunday last, morning and evening. The morning service i was attended by an unusually large ! congregation, *rhich was remarked j npon by the pastor as being most in- | spiring. The sermon was first of a | series of three on the topic, "Re-dis- I covering our religious impulse," with j the text, "As the heart panteth after ! the waterbrooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God." Other themes to ; follow the next two Sundays are "Rightly directing our religious im- ; pulse," and "Christianising our re- j iigious impulse." Mr. Service handles j Ws subjects in a most instructive and ' inspiring manner and should be heard ' by all in the coming two discourses. The pastor also took the Bible class ' at Sunday school which was attended by' eighteen people. He will continue ♦4l.he*d the class for the balance of July. 1^ • . Mrs. Mitchell's group of the W. M. S. will take the service in the "church at 3 p.m. on Wednesday of this week. The Sunday school and church .membership will hold a garden party' . and picnic in Memorial Park. Flesh- ' erton. on Thursday afternoon of next week. See bills and advertisement ! in this issue for full particulars. i Now Head Linesman Mr. Robt. Down of Tara, has re- 'ceived the appointment of foreman of the line on the Eugenia Hydro Sys- tem, succeeding Mr. Jos. Corkill who has taken complete charge of the rur- al section of the system. For the past several years. Mr. Down has been located at Tara and was in charge of the Hydro line in that dis- trict. He will now be located at Markdale and intends to move to his location the first of August. Con. gratulations are extended to Bob on his appointment to his more respon- sible duties. Liquor In Pictures The Windsor Star, commenting on the finding of the Federal Council of Churches in the United States to the effect that drinking scenes in the mov« ies are overdone, states that "in the last few years there has been a tend- ency to use the pictures as a medium to increase sales of liquor. It is subtle propaganda. ".\fter all, it should not be neces- sary to have a couple of cocktails be- fore sitting down, after sittinp down, before rising, after rising, before going out, after soinsr out, and. in fact, before and after doing anythine. "In some of thr •Pictures nowadays they could eliminat lalf or more of the drinking scenes ^nd still show plenty of liquor being consumed." This propaganda is aimed at the most susceptible people in their most susceptible age: and its presence is] due no doubt to the influence of the' big money of the lir,uor trade which' misses no opportunity to create public' opinion favorable to its progress.
