More money bas been txpended this year than in any past celebration, stated Mr. Hardy,- and the entire show vvill be handled by a staff . of prof essionals. .Following the opening salute, a salvo of daylight bombs will releasea ànaitn comic figures into. laps of spectators, A huge fireworks display, witb fiery let- ters glowing theWords "Welome to heavens, to be followed by a spread of 'bonîbsiiels in the colons of the flag and a. flight of assorteti bombshells. * Mauny Unique Ph...s Othier feature pieces of the first epi- socle of pyrotechnics will be the Spirit of '176, a faithful reproduction of the fanious painting in fiery patriotic colors; the Giants of the Forest, two b eautiful wheel pieces that take the fortn of gigantic trees; the Little Old Clock, which strikes every hour anti rings a stentorian alarm; theý Maii on the Fiy- ing Trapeze, acconîpanieti by music of the song; Spectacle ýof: the Rainbowv, and Niagara Falls, rated as the Most: impressive piece of this type ever pro- duced.

Venteklasen, pasior of! the Pirst, Ptesbyterian, church of Wilrnette, a,,nioiiiced to hi$ congregation la.st SundAzy morn- ig that he lad decline4 the cali to the pastorate of the Third Reformed chu rch, of I-ollaisd, Mich., which he has been considerinj for some time, and that hie will remain uith the local .church. The church which calleti Mr. Vene- kiasen is the fourth largest in that denominat ion, with a membership twice the size of the local churcb, and the out standing church of the comniunity. A large number of the faculty and stu- dents of Hope college are niembers and attendants, andi there ýis a large young people's constituency. The chwurch is also very active andi prominent in, mism- sionary work iii thé detiÔeinetiion. ",While the caîl was a very attractive one," said Mr. Venekiasen, "the church here is ini neeti of leadership at present because of its buiidihig'prqject an~d its reorganization. One tmust, consider the. fieldi one is calleti to leave as weil as the fieldi one is calieti to enter, anti it seemeti fairer to stay and see my people througb. this difficuffît, criticai perioti." To clear up some of the questions concerihing these two services the Rev. David R. ICabele, pastor of the church, states that the service and tbe sermon at these two services are the saine. The early service is held for the cnvenience of, those who. feel the need and desire of attending a service of worship before thefr day's outing. Sunday.school convenes at 9 o'clock. Substituting the class teaching, Peri- ods, stereopticon lectures on the Bible are being presented. The 'chul- dren show great interest in these pictures.

Deferrd lpy Depr«si«m Ordinarily macadam streets are resurfaceti every tbree years, but the Kenilworth Village trustees delayed the work for two reasons. One. was to avoid. assesment of abutting prop- erty owners during the depression pe- riod. Another was the fact that the proposed storm sewer project was stili unsettled. î Street's iinciuded in this year's reiur- facing prograin, besides'.the two ai- ready nentioned, are: .Woodstock avenue froin lUchmond road to :Leictsterý road, Oxford road f rom Woodstock avenue to Leicester road, Warwick lane f rom Oxford rofd.
