The pulpit at the Presbyterian church
Yesterday was occupied by Rev, Arthur
Robert Davies, acting pastor OF the Lon
donderry Presbyterian church. Rev Da-
yies delivered two interesting and force
full sermons, especially so in the evening,
when he chose for his theme, "The Moral
BY. Products of the World War" The
speaker happened to be Brussels when
war broke out and was an eyewitness to
scenes which he cannot forget. In pass
ing, he remarked that all big measures
ever enacted were stalled in the Senate
and that in time the league of nations
| would be accepted, it had to be accepted.
| His picturing of the blackness of the war
| cloud and the ultimate silver lining was
impressive.
| It's an i'll wind that doesn't blow some
| BODY good and to all intentions IL has
blown on Barre in all its goodness, for,
| on account of the recent strike OF the
| actors in New York, all the show houses
were closed and month behind their
schedules, besides being mixed up in
i their dates, so it looks as if Barre was
going to get her share of good shows,
| owing to the fact of fixing up routes in a
hurry. The first one to come to see the
; good folks of this town is the recent hit
at the New Central theatre, New York,
where it played to capacity audiences for
eight consecutive months, PA perform
