CLARK\nThe death occurred In Cranbrook\non Sunday last of Margaret Park, he-\nloved wife of Andrew Clark, uged (12\nyears and 8 mouths. News of the death\nof her son Thomas of the Royal Engineers, who was killed in uctlon In\nFranco on Dec. 19th at the age of 28\nyears, was the Indirect cause of Mrs.\nClark's demise.\nTlie deceased was born In Scotland,\nand with her husband came to Cran-\nbrook six years ago from Blantyre,\nLanarkshire. Scotland. She was married to Andrew Clara in Scotland\nforty-four years ago, and of a family\nof four daughters and seven sons the\nfirst break was the recent death of\nThomas Clark on t*ie Held of battle.\nThe surviving members of the family\nnre: Andrew, Calgary; John, New\nZealand; Jim, Corbin, B.

Easter\nwas on April 2(ith, and in 1S50 on\nApril 24th. It wiil not bc so lnte a-\ngatn until the year 1943 when the date\nwill he April 25th.\nFor Those Who Accept Rev. Mr. |\nSimpson's Kxplanation of\nDeath and the\nResurrection\n1 The Monday night service of the\n: eight day mission being conducted In\n1 Christ Church was attended by a congregation which filled the ehurch to\ncapacity. Hev. Mr. Simpson took for\nhis text \"The Life after Death, or\n! What Really Happens When we Die.\"\nMr. Simpson's enunciation of his\nsubject and his explanation of his\nown belief were sulllciently new and\nstartling to at least ghr bis hearers\nI plenty of food for thought. His belief\n1 as explained by himself savors much\n! of the spiritualistic hut possession of\nj these same views undoubtedly would\ni rob death of any of the dread or terror\nIt may hold.\nI In brief Mr. Simpson believes that\nthere is no such thing as death and\nthe resurrection in the commonly accepted meaning of those words. He\nbelieves that the spirits of the departed aro with us now, know what\nwe are doing, our desires, etc., and\nthat we can communicate with them\nthrough our thoughts. When our physical body dies his belief is that the\nspirit continues conscious, continues\nto move nbout, know and understand\nwith the advantage of not being tied\ndown by the physical body, able to\ntransport itself thousands of miles in\nthe twinkling of an eye. In his opinion\nthere Is no transition period in which\ntho soul sleeps until the resurrection day. He believes also that a\nChristian may live two lives at the\nsame time, this life in tlie visible\nworld, and a spiritual life in the Invisible world, holding communion with ;\ntlie spirits.\nMr. Simpson took as the basis of\nhis remarks the sermon of the apostle\nPaul to Agrlppa, ona put forward an\nentirely new Interpretation of the resurrection. He divided the various\nideas of the life after death into three\nheads, first: lhat of the atheist and\nagnostic ll'at there is no future life, \u00E2\u0096\u00A0\nwhen we die we are dead and death\nis the end of everything; second, the.\nbelief most of us have been brought up\nto, the Jewish belief, not the Christ-\nIan belief according to Mr. Simpson,\ntliat when we die our bndy is put fn j\nthe ground and our spirits go on liv- .\ning without a body mitJl the time of j\nthe resurrection In the future when ]\nbody and soul will be united and enabled to meet those we love again. In\nother words, that when we die we fall\nasleep. This was St. Paul's belief in j\nthe-first part of bin life; third, St.;\nPaul's belief in the second part of Ills '\nlife was in a \"God wnlch raiseth tho\ndead\", and this is the real Christian\nbelief, that Iffe after (tenth is not the\nbeginning of a new life but Is a continuance of the life which Is going on\nnow.\nThe spenker went on to Illustrate\nthe beauty of his belief, and the fallacy ot the idea that the old physical\nbody could ever again clothe the spirit. ',\nDeath In his opinion is something to\nlook forward to and welcome Its ar-\nrival.\nMr. Simpson also give a much too\nbrief hut intensely interesting remin- j\n(sconce of his experience on tho 111-\nfated Lusltanla, and his marvellous es-\nCape from a watery grave. He said he\nnever felt the presence of God so j\nclosely as between the time tbe ship\nwas torpedoed and his rescue In a |\nboat. His comfort and sustenance j\nduring the trying three hours waiting\nto be picked up by n steamer was\nprayer, nnd he urged the congregation\nto cultivate the habit of prayer on\nevery occasion.\nHave Had a Good Year and Accomplished Some (jood Work\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nNew Officers Elected for the Year.\nThe annual meeting of the Cran- Stock Dec.\nhrook Board of Trade was held In the 1MB \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0096\u00A0 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 .136.000,000 ft 243.000.OOU ft\nCity Hall on Tuesth.y night with a\ngood attendance of members, Mr. J.\nM.

The success of\nthe gathering was due to the local\nW.C.T.U. who had charge of tho entire\nproceedings. Mrs. McNabb occupied\ntho chair. This meeting inaugurates\na series of temperance lessons In the\nSunday Schools, and the entire program was very strong in temperance\nsentiment.\nA splendid address was given by\nHev. Mr. Simpson of Hossland, who is\nconducting thc eight day mission here\nIn the Anglican Church. Rev. Mr.\nThomson gave an Interesting blackboard talk, Miss Kdith McDonald, silver medallist, gave as-a recitation\n\"The Prodigal's Soliloquy\", and Miss\nBradwln gave a temperance reading.\nA children's choir led In the singing\nof a number of temperance songs.\nMUSICAL SERVICES\nA very pleasant change Is being\nmade In the character of the service at\nThe Methodist Church ou Sunday\nevening next when in place of the\nusual preaching tho entire service will\nbe taken up by congregational and\nchoral music. Tho choir has been\npreparing a ilrst class program for\nseveral weeks past and doubtless wlll\ndo themselves credit as well as provide something of an entertaining and\ninspiring character for the congregation.\nMany of the Items are by request\nwhich goes to show that the program\nwill not be a thing in which a choir\nonly can revel but one in which the\ncongregation can find expression for\ntheir own feelings of praise and worship.\nIn place of the usual song service\nprior to the regular service, the organist, Prof. C. F. Nidd, will give an\norgan recital commencing at seven\no'clock.\nI think this matter should receive\nthe attention of tho meeting as I feel\nsatisfied that you are all aware of the\nenormous asset this would bo in connection with the tourist tralllc through\nout tho country.\nDuring the year we arranged with\nthe Fisheries Department for 5000 fry\nto be placed In'Munroe and 10,000 fry\nin Premier Lakes all of which should\nbe of advantage to tlio country ln the\ncourse of a year or so.\nJ.
