CHURCH REOPENING SERVICES
Sunday, May 28th was a most = aus- Picious day in the history of the Unit- ed Church of Strathmore, when reopen- ing and rededicating Seiices were held, with capacity congregations both morning and evening. i
The Church has undergone exte- sive improvement and the changed ap- pearance was the subject of very many eulogistic comments, |
The pews in themselves are a mark- ed improvement, which with the com- modious choir loft and pulpit, the soft- ly shaded walls, the artistic scroli containing the Biblical phrase oO Worship the Lord in the Beauty of Holiness, all combine to create an at- mosphere of quiet reverence.
The music for the day was well ren- dered and added much to the general excellence of the service. Rev. V. M. Gilbert was assisted in the services by Rev, Geo. W. Lang, B. A., L.Vh, of St. Michaels Church, Strathmore; Rev. J. McKelvey of Carseland and Rev. J. Gordon Brown, M. A., B. D. of Robert- son United Church, Edmonton, who was the preacher at both services,
Mr Brown is an exceptionally able speaker and his discourses held the rapt attention of his hearers. He took as his text for the evening sermon, “Lord I believe; help Thou Mine Un. belief.”
Stressing the point that a faith and a spirit of optimism would carry one much further than one of dispair he

the beginning God created the heaven and the earth” (Genesis 1.1). One of the correlative passages from “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures’. by Mary Baker Eddy, is “There is but one primal cause. Therefore there Can!

3 No better illustration of what modern business, in its organization, can do in co-operating to further the interests of those other industries dependent on it, is to be had than that of the Agricultural Implement Industry in its relation to farming.
Its inception was the making available to other farmers the tools which one ingenious farmer developed to lighten his own labors and enable him to accomplish more in the always too short seasons, Its support by farmers to the point which has enabled the building of organizations financially and technically strong enough to carry on large scale experimental engineering has increased its efficiency and usefulness to the benefit of every farmer.
Ever alert to the immediate problems of the farmer, whether it be soil-drifting, which it enabled the farmer to combat by producing and perfecting the One-Way Disc Seeder, or the need for still lower costs of production which it helps to solve as in the case of the adapting of the low cost harvesting combine to the needs of all farmers, both large and small, by developing the New Small Power-Take-Off Combines, its experi- mental deportments are even now busily engaged in laboratory and field work anticipating the ever-new demands which farming continues to make on those whose life work it is.
Early associations with the pioneer farmer brought realization of his need for financial assistance and no source has been as liberal and none less costly than the implement maker in providing the necessary equipment fo enable the farmer to reap full benefit from his land and efforts.
The urge for greatest volume to keep manufacturing costs down has ever dictated as low a selling price as was consistent with good business principles and prices of farm implements in Canada are cheaper than on any other continent in the world outside North America, Canadian prices compare most favorably with those in United States where the benefit of the world’s greatest implement market is accorded the industry.
Massey-Harris regards highly its reputation for co-operating with the farmers of Canada and the co-operation it receives from the support and good-will of farmers generally.

“Canada must enter into intensive scientific research to find new indus-! trial uses for wheat if she is going to! retain and expand her wheat markets’ and keep pace with the rest of the world,” said Cecil Lamont on his re-' turn from Columbus, Ohio, In Colum- bus he represented the North-West Grain Dealers’ Association at the meeting of the Farm Chemurgic Coun-} cil of the United States. Industrial- ists and agriculturists from all parts! of the States were present. |
Large concerns such as the Vupont interests, Corn Products Refining the Ford Motor Company and others had their research men present to outline the latest develop- ments in utilizing products of farm, forest and mine in industrial research.
Research is continuing to yield
Many new industrial uses for soya eans, corn and synthetic wool from skim milk. Virtually no comparable scientific work is being done with wheat, although the United States Government and the Ford laboratories are commencing to direct attention to this cereal.
“Expansion of markets for wheat is the West’s greatest problem today, Science has found an answer to many industrial problems and it may hold a solution to the surplus wheat problem, rior:
