Thanksgiving Service In Kensington

A large congregation gathered for a united Thanksgiving service, held in the Presbyterian Church, Thursday morning, Oct. 24th. Mem- bers of the three churches assisted in the choir. The opening hymn was a paean of praise. "All Good Things Around Us Are Sent From Heaven Above; Then Thank the Lord, O Thank the Lord, for All His Love."

Rev. Mr. Bream of the Anglican Church assisted the pastor. Rev Mr. Rhoad, in the devotional exer- clses.

Rev. Mr. Salter of the United Church was called upon and de- livered the address. Hm subject was from the 4th chapter of John, "One soweth, and another reapeth, I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour; other men laboured and ye are entered into their labours." First of all, we have reason to be thankful to the farm- er, to the man who toils to plow the field. sow the seed, and reap the harvest. Even back of that, there should be gratitude to the mechanic, who makes the plow and the machinery, necessarily in use on a farm. How many of us who sit down to even e simplest meal at home, give a hought to the laborer who makes that meal possible? The breed, the tea and sugar, the fish we eat-have we thankful thoughts for those who toil all day in the hot sun. for those who labour in the fields, un- der burning skies, and for those who, often at the risk of their lives, sail the seas and bring us those things we accept as every day things? "Other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours." And these are only some of the material things we ought to be thankful for, What of the spiritual side? First and foremost. we can be thankful for our churches. Even the buildings we worship in were erected at often great sacrifice and cost and labour by our fathers: and we sometimes feel it an effort to keep that building in repair!

Wlhat of our Bibles? We buy a Bible for a dollar. and think we pay for it! We pay for the paper it ls printed cm and the binding of it. Those who paid for the Bible are the men of the past, the men all down through the ages, who suffered and gave their lives that we might have God's Word. ‘Ihosc martyrs of the early church in Rome, who suffered for their be- lief in Christ, and were often thrown to wild beasts. Of those men in monast ies who kept alive the flames and preserved the Word for us. 0f William Tyndall, who studied end wrote and suffered in a foul prison, and afterwards was put to death for his faith.

Kensingtou-To Get a. Permanent

The citizens of Kensington AN all agog over the new paved street to be laid along Broadway, in the near future. ‘

The work on the main highway. passing throughtho town, is near- ing completion, when finished we may justly be proud of our penn- anent roads.

We are glad to be living in such an enlightened and progressive age; but are we so very modern after all?

There were pcnnanent roads built by the Romans, in Britain, the remnants of which may be found to this day. It is very interesting to nole. in view of all the road work under construction iii P. E. I. at the pre:ent time, that a portion of the old Posse road (so called in Anglo-Saxon times and since) which remains, about ten miles southwest of Bath, England, was opened in 1881 and showed the"fol- lowing construction:

First, Pavlmenium, or foundation, of fine earth, hard beaten in.

Second, Statumen, or bed of the road, composed gof large stones, sometimes mixed with mortar.

Third, Ruderatio, or small stones well mixed with mortar.

Fourth, Nudeus. or gravel, sand and lime mixed with clay.

Fifth, Upon this was laid the sur- face of the paved road, technically called the summum dorsum.

Of course all the roads then were not built with quite so much care, but they were substantial enough to endure, and remained in use for centuries. In a few hundred years’ time, will our descendants be traf- ficing up and down our permanent highways, and at odd intervals do- ing their bit of repair- work on them?

SELASSIE

_.. FC9““E‘“.°‘L§'_‘?F‘ If??? 1)..

Ethiopian army is in such an excel- lent position, with supplies, arms and ammunition now coming in, that the Emperor almost is able to dictate terms to Ii Duce.

Selassie. at long last persuaded Italy's minister to Ethiopia to ngrce today to leave the country-a task that has taken two weeks to accom-

ish.

The obdurate Count Luigi Vincl- Glgliuccl was given his passport 15 days ago and asked to leave within 4B hours. But he refused to go un- til two Italian commercial agents arrived from Magalo, to depart with him- '

The agents have reached here so the minister will leave tomorrow with them and Major Calderinl, the Italian military attache. For the last two weeks Vinci-Gigliucci has been living at the home of Haile Selassies son-in-law, holding the status of a private citizen.

(Negadras Yesus, Ethiopian Min- ister to Rome. has been recalled by Selassie and is expected to leave Oct, 28).

The French legation will handle Italian diplomatic interests offer the departure of the Italian envoy.

Emperor I-Iaiie Selassie spent five hours today reviewing wild warriors who arrived from remote interior points en route to the front.

PARIS, Oct. 25-40. P. Haven- Premler Laval and bassador Vittorio Verniti confer- red here today for more than an hour. Official circles kept the strictest secrecy on the interview, but it was known to have dealt with the Ethiopian situation.

Informed observers here said there was no doubt the talk was of great importance in current negotiations for settlement-of the lntematlonal situation and that official silence was caused by de- termination to let no premature publicity interfere.

New reports of Italian conces- slons toward peace negotiations came from unofficial quarters to- night.

Writing in the Liberal news- paper L‘Oeuvre, Genevieve Tabou- is saidshe had learned from Rome that Mussolini would not consider his Libyan troop withdrawals re- quired reduction of Great Brit- lanfls Mediterranean Fleet; that Il Duce would undertake to sus- pend milltary operations and stop sending troops to Africa pending a. British reply to his "sugges- tions," and that he was willing to have the league of Nations handle these suggestions should they suit London.

So-called Mussolini suggestions for Italian and international pro- teciorates over Ethiopia have been reported here before, but they were entirely without confirmation and were onsidered generally un- acceptable to either Emperor l-Iaile Selassie or to Great Britain.

King Announces Brit- ish System To Be Used In New Parlia- ment.

UITAWlA, Oct. ltd-Assembling of a Dominion-Provincial Conference at an early date. reduction in the size of the Dominion Cabinet by merger of departments and adoption of the British system of apponting parliamentary under-secretaries to assist Cabinet Ministers were three announcements made last night by Premier Mackenzie King.

As soon as the new Cabinet had been sworn in, Mr. King issued a statement explaining his views on these matters. I-Ie also explained he had asked Premier James G. Gar- diner te become Minister of Agri- culture end was awaiting a. reply. Apart from this he had consulted no Liberal Provincial Premier as the personnel of the new Cabinet.

The statement follows:

Text of Statement

"I will be observed that, in the formation of the Government, have felt it to be in the public in- terest that the Government itself should be reduced in size, and a re- duction of the cost of government effected by e, consolidation in the number of portfolios. It will re- quire legislation to give effect to the reorganization of Departments of Government thus contemplated. Pending the reorganization, in eases where departments are to be com- bined or consolidated, the several portfolios involved have been as- signed to one Minister.

"With this end ill view, the De- pai-tmenis of Mincs, Immigration and Colonization, Interior and In- dlan Affairs are being combined un- der one Minister. When reorgani- zation is effected an appropriate designation will be given the com- bined departments.

“The Department of Railways and Canals and the Department of Mar- ine will be combined to be known ine will be combined and made in- to a new department to be known as the Department of Transport.

n4

No Solicitor-General

"Further economy in the cost of government will be effected by the abolition of the position of Solici- tor-General. The duties of that of- fice will be taken over by the Min- ister of Justice.

"The reorganization of‘ depart- ments effected, and others. will be given further consideration by tho Cabinet as a. whole, between now and the assembling of Parliament. The Health division of the Depart- ment of Pensions. and National Health, which at present is being administered by the Minister of Pensions. will, in all probability, be made a part of the Department of Labor, as having an immediate as- sociation wlth such matters as old age pensions, unemployment insur- ance, and other phases of social in- surance.

“As a part of this reorganization of departments, which aims at ef- ficiency as well as economy, in mat- ters of administration, it is the ln- tention of the Government to make provision, at the first session of Parliament, in the case of the more important departments, for the ap- pointment of parliamentary secret- aries, whose posltlon will corres- pond to that of the parliamentary under-secretaries in. the British House of Commons.

Salaried Secretaries

"The selection of parliamentary secretaries will be made in the same manner as that of the ministry it- self. A salary will be attached to the position. In this particular, the Government wi‘l be carrying out. a recommendation made as long agfl as 1912 by Sir George Munay in a report on organization of the public service of Canada.

"The appointment of parliament- ary secretaries will have the addi- tional advantage of permittin! recognition to be given to members of Parliament who, because or the limited number of portfolios. carr- npt be taken into the Ministry.

“I have not forgotten that it was just sixteen years ago today that. as a ember for Prince County, Prince Edward Island. I entered Parliament as the leader of the Op- position. It has been a regret t0 me that it has not been pomlble to‘ give representation in the Cab- inet to Prince Edward‘ Island. It has been suggested that the defic- iency in this particular might be met, ‘at least in part, by the Bl!- polntment of a Minister without portfolio. I have felt that the re- presentation of the province would be effected in a more satisfactory manner if a member from that province were appointed as one ti); work in association with a Mini-tier of one of the departments. I indeed therefore. to see that in the list of parliamentary secretaries, Prince Edward Island receives immediate recognition.

Gardiner Consider:

"It will be observed that the only portfolio to which en appointment has not yet been made is the all- lmportent livepartment of Agricul- ture. I have asked Hon. J. 0. Gardiner, Premier of Beskawhewlh

accept this portfolio. Mr. Gard- ner be; told m; that his nepoull-

bllities are such that. without the fullest consideration being given the matter, not only by the Gov- ernment or Saskatchewan, but by its supporters ‘in thiflegtslatuie, he would not b, in a. position to give a decision. Pending Mr. Gerd- iriers decision, no appointment will be made to this portfolio.

"In considering the distribution of portfolios by provinces, I have left in abeyance. for the time bein! final determination of the custom- ary representation of the lllastem Townships of the Province of Que- bee.

"It is of the utmost importance. if confidence is to be established in the integrity of the several admin- istrations now in office in Canadfl. that it should be known that, in the formation of the Government, there has been no effort on the part o; anyone concerned either to seek Oi‘ give undertakings with respect to any public matter, bczrond the assurances which were givrn on the public platform during iiic cam- paign as to the co-opeialian which would be sought between the Gov- ernment at Ottawa and the Gov- ermnenis of the several provinces in the solution of the great problems of our day-

Early Conference

“As soon as the results of the elections were known, I communi- cated with the Premiersof the sev- erai provinces, intimating that. when the Government was formed. one of the first subjects which I would discuss with my 42011618116! would be that of the importance of calling a Dominion-Provincial Con- ference at the earliest possible date. In s0 doing, I expressed the hope that the provincial Premiers Wrlllld find it possible so to arrahxe i-hfiil‘ afairs as to permit of their being present in Ottawa at a date to be arranged during the month of No- vember.

"In view of the fact that ques- tlons affecting financial and other relations between the provinces and the Dominion will be subjects of discussion at-the conference, I have felt that the independence of the Governments, both of the provinces and of the Dominion. would be the better preserved in the matter of all negotiations were I not to call into conference. in tho selection of the Federal ministry, any of the Provincial Premiers.

"I have. accordingly, refrained, in the formation of the new Liberal administration, from seekinz the counsel and advice of any provin- cial Premier, with the exception of Mr. Gardiner. whom it was neces- sary to consult in view of my de- sire to secure him for the portfolio of Agriculture. I feel sure that my action in this particu‘ar will be welcomed by members of the Pre- vlncial Governments, and approved by the public generally."
