First Since 1M2

The U-boat attacks were the first in the St. Lawrence since the

summer of 1942 when 20 merchant converted yacht Racoon and the Canadian

ships, the Canadian corvette Charlottetown were sunk in the river and gulf. One other merchant ship was attacked i942 in the area and broke up while eiiorts were being made to salvage her.

The torpedo which struck the Mogog was believed to have been nred from a submarine a "consid- erable" distance away. Ships of the esmrt obtained "ccntactsfivlth anti-submarine detection gear and attacked with undetermined re-

u ts.

The torpedo tore open watertight bulkheads and compartments were flooded with oil and water. Two oi the three men killed were doing

‘Zion Men's Brotherhood Opening Supper Meeting

Seventy eight members were in attendance at the opening supper meeting of the recently iormed Men's Brotherhood oi Zion Pres- byterian Church, held in the Church's recreation hall last even- ing" and presided over by Mr. George W. McLeod, the first presi- dent of the organization.

Aitcr the opening hymn had been sung by the gatherin the

members sat down to a delcicusi

supper b the Ladies’ Aid Society of the Church which was up to the usual high standards that this baud of ladies is noted for.

President McLeod, before intro- ducing the guest speaker cl the evciiliig, thanked the men present for their splendid attendance. The officers appreciated it very much, he assured his listeners, and lt was indeed very encouraging, ex- pressing the hopc that it would not only be. continued but would show an increase in the meetings that are to follow. He then in- troduced Rev. I. Judson Levy, pas- tor of the Ba tist Church.

Mr. Levy in is opening remarks extended greetings from the Bap- tist Church and the Church Men's ssoclation, also stating how much Feasure it gave him to be in at- endance at such a fine gathering.

A band of men formed into an organization oi this kind could do many things for the Church of Christ that min-

take C atianity out into busi- ness life. clitlcs, social life, etc. The Churc had to strike a death

blow to the mortal evils that were entering into social life and men banded together in brotherhood could erfcrm just such a task.

In c oaing Mr. Levy thought that the forming of the brotherhood would lead to bc a great hour in the life of Zion Church and ll it did, "great would be dyour service," the speaker conclude .

Immediately after Mr. Levy's ad- dress. Mr. Harry A. MacDougall moved a hearty vote of thanks to the speaker for his inspiring ad- dress, which was seconded by Mr. Alex McDonald and presented to the speaker by president McLeod.

Rev. G. Carlyle Webster told his listeners that great interest was being shown throughout the Doin- inion in the formation of organiz- stlotns such as this one. I-ie stated

ward the same purpose.

Taking 85 his subject men's cr- ganizations such as this one re- cently formed, the s aker gave 11$ listeners an lnspir rig message that was listened to with rapt at- tention. He pointed out that the Zion Brotherhood was not formed ust for the sole reason that the church needed another organizat-

the Zion Brotherhood were very fortunate in having Mr. Levy as their guest s eaker and added that he was glad deed to sec Mr. Levy rapidly regaining his accustomed health after his long illness. Brotherhoods such as this one sho oi real value to the of Christ, the speaker it gave the men a oi’ becoming better ac- quainted and it also gave the pas- tor a better chance oi knowing the

men better.

The forces oi evil as was well

demonstrated by the outgrowth o.‘ Nazllem were trying to destroy the Christian Church. Mr. Webster said. and it was groups oi men formed into brotherhocds that would be the forces that would up- hold and maintain the Church cf Christ and overthrow such forces. In his closing remarks ‘Mr. Web- ater expressed his thanks to all who had combined to make the in- a ural supper such a success and int mated that the Zion Brother- hood would turn cut to be a real force in church work: Reports oi the committees were then heard, with the membershb report being ‘given by E.

14nd re-assessrnent

the House went into committee with Mr. Saville in the chair on a bill to amend the Land Assess- ment Act. The promoter explained that it was proposed to revalue farm pro- perty ior taxation purposes and to have this revaluation curried into the school districts. '.l'l'iis would tend to remedy some oi.‘ the dif- ficulties in consolidating school districts.

Mr. Heath Strong: "The pur- pose of the bill is not to raise the lairid taxes in an indirect way, is

Hon. Mr. Hughes: "No, that is not the intention. while it may have that effect ln some cases. On the whole I don't anticipate any serious change. I think the pro- per way to increase taxation is to increase the rate."

Mr. Strong: "That would be the fair way‘. of course."

Mr. Hughes: "It is not the in- or three hours at his place. tention so to do." Dr. an: "I can more Mr. McPhee moved that the tsx information from t ea-‘g
