That's probably the most printed and spoken word in Britain and after nearly three years of war a formidable list of don'ts is gathering length dally, Don't run water -- don't waste 'paper -- don't show lights -- don't waste fuel -- don't spend extrava- ganlly -- don't hoard food -- al- ways DON'T ,., ," DONT , . . DON'T, ' It's even possible that the pub- Mc may be "told: "Don't walk -- eave shoe "leather." That's no Joke, 'For at the apnual meeting of the Boot .Trades Association, Harold Salt, director of civillan leather supplies, told delegates that the nation's leather cupboard is empty and that economies must be made in use of leather for re- Pairing, He didn't buggest- a substitute which could be used to eobble boots and shoes, and thus raised editorial comment in the Dally Sketch which envisaged Britons clumping through the streets in eloga. It is an offence lo waste paper. Bo people have been told, Don't mix paper with ashes or throw In the garbage pail; don't throw away bus tickets; don't leave paper under a train or tram seat; don't allow paper to clutter up a house," Soap is precious; too, so don't let a cake lie about in water; don't wash under a running tap-- it wastes water as well as soap, "RAF.

Sunday Schools Slipping To-Day Parents Responsible, Says Owen Sound 8un-Times In the Presbyterian Church General Assembly, the secretary of the Board of Sabbath Schools and Young People's Societies ealled attention to the decline in enrolment in Sunday Schools which he characterized as a major problem of the Church today. There has been a decline of 225,- 000 in the four major Protestant -denominations in" the ten years from 1931-41, Sunday School en- rolment is declining three times as fast as the birth rate, so we cannot blame the low birth rate for these statistics." That is a serious, really alarm. ing condition. It means that Church membership enrolment is on the down grade. We know that the large majority of enrol- ments in Church. membership come from the Sunday Schools. _ If the children are not attending Sunday School, they are most un- likely, when they grow older, to attend church serviges, And, if the vicious: spiral is continued, with a percentage of parents con- tinuing to neglect the Sunday Schools, the end of the church is fnevitable. evitable AE The condition, no doubt, will be considered and remedies sug- gested; but, in our 'opinion, the solution of the problem is in the - bringing about -of- an awakening on the part of the parents, During recent years the popularity of automobiles has without doubt been one not unimportant cause - of the falling off. It has been so easy "to run out into the coun-- try" or pay a visit to friends on Sunday afternoon; and very nat- urally the children wil] go with the parents, Never mind about Sunday School! And when wet days come and make the after- noon holiday impossible--well, it's too wet for the children to go to Bunday School, It may be that the shortage of gasoline will put' a stopper on those Sunday trips. If it does it Ju be a blessing for it will give he children" a chance to "obtain same Christian training and edu- eation--something which, we fear, too many parents neglect, But in any event if the church wants to build up its Sunday Schools it must work on the parents. ; 1 a < Burning fiercely, erippled- &nd out of control, this Mogami-class cruisé¢r, one of Japan's best, wale lows helplessly in the Pacific after the lads of Uncle Sam's Navy had given her a going over from torpedo planes and bombers, These ships usually carry a crew of 850 officers and men, LESSON 27 GOD THE CREATOR Genesis 1, 2 PRINTED TEXT Genesis 1:1.5, 24.31; 2:1 GOLDEN TEXT.--In the begin. ning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.--We do not know, and never will om this earth, the time when God created the universe. We do not know exactly when man first appeared. Place.--No one 'knows definit- ely where the Garden of Eden "was located, but it is generally agreed that it was somewhere on the continent of Asia, and prob- " ably near where the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers pour their waters into the sea, God The Creator 1. "In the beginning God cre. ated the heavens and the carth." The carth' is the only particular body in the whole universe that is named. The heavens are define itely and directly related to the earth, Though man livés on the earth, his thinking, his hopes and his future, relate -to heaven, 2, "And the ecarth was waste and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." The desola- tion here referred' to is limited to the 'land, to this earth, and is not identified with the entire uni- verse, - The First Day . 3. "And God said, Let there bs light: and there was light, 4. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness, 5. And God called the light Day, and the dark- ness he called Night. And there was ovening and there was morn- ing, one day." The first word that proceeds from the mouth of God in our Bible is the_-word 'light.' . It is not said that God _ created the darkness: Christ-him. se came to be the Light of the world in a moral, intellectual and spiritual way, as God here, in a physical way, introduces light into a dark world, The Sixth Day 24, "And God said, Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, cattle, and creep. ing things, and beasts of the earth after their kind: and was £0. 26. And God made the bdasts ot the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every- thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind: and God saw that it was good. 26. And Goa said, Let us make man in our dmage, after our likeness: and let them have. dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, 27, And God cre- ated man in his own image, in the image of God created "he him; male and female created he them, 28. And God blessed them: and God said unto them, Be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and- over 'every living - thing that moveth upon the earth, 29, And God said, Behold, I have given you "every herb yielding sced, which is upon the face of the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food: 30, and to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the heavens, and to everything that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for food: and it was so, 81, And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. 'And there was eve- ning 'and there was morning, the sixth day." As God ended the work of each day, He declared everything He had 'Ynade -to be good, which means that, origin- ally, everything that was created was perfect, that God manifested His fullness of wisdom in this' vast creation work. Of course, it should be remembered that we "solute perfection; do not see the world as God cre- ated it, for sin has for ages deep- ly and terribly marred our earth. We should observe that the order of creation as revealed in this brief description broken into a series of six chronological periods, is exactly in accord with the ideas of modern science as to the de- velopment of the earth and life upon the earth. We should know that when God created man his creative work ceased, and this also is the verdict of modern science. There has been no creative work subsequent to the creation of man, The Seventh Day 1. "And the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them." The two ideas of cessation and perfection are em- braced in the word here translated finished." Not simply had God paused in His activity, but the divine idea of His universe had . been realized. God's Provision For Man The following factorg should be noted in God's perfect' provision for man's welfare as he began life on this earth: (1) God made him perfect; and that means he had absolute soundness of body; (2) he was given the great honor of being made in the image of God; (3) he was assigned dominion over the whole earth; (4) he way placed in an environment of ab- 1; (5) he was given work to do, and that means he was equipped at once with the intelligence for doing it; (6) he was commanded .to replenish the earth, and therefore knew what © God intended for him; (7) he was forbidden 'to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, which means, on the one hand, that he was a moral creature, and would be responsible for obedience to that which is right, and, on the other hand, it implies 'the mercy of God in giving such a warning, (Indeed it implies more, that God is profoundly interested in man's welfare), Few Men Rejected By Canadian Navy Surgeon-Capt. A. McCallum of Ottawa, medicat=diredtor-general of the Royal Canadian Navy, said in an interview in Winnipeg that during the past 12 months the Navy had examined 20,643 men and only 11.4 percent had: been rejected. The health standard of Canada is "very high," ho said, adding the health picture was distorted because men rejected for military servico often were branded as "unhealthy and medically unfit." Surgeon-Capt, McCallum said there have been reports that 40 percent of Canada's youth were medically unfit and that "public men have taken the figures from. the National War Scrvices which showed that 40 percent of 50,000 examined did not fall in 'A' cate- gory. . ." He said.reports that 40 percent of Canada's youth were medically unfit are "grossly exaggerated through misinterpretation of fig- ures," "It savors of fifth column in- spired rumors," he said. A man may be rejected in the Navy because of color defects in his vision yet he may be perfectly healthy, Great. ritain purchased 20,000 tons of cotton from the Belgian Congo in 1941, 'By William Ferguson THIS CURIOUS WORLD CEH BENG ; OF A SW~AN is NoT AT MYTHS WOUNDED SWANS HAVE!

Recent exploits of the Royal Alr Force must have been a shock to his amour propre. Aud the irony of the situation is .that he is now working for Henry Ford to turn out more bombers which will prove him still further wrong. SCOUTING . . . The collecting of discarded flower pots is the latest salvage activity of Sarnia Boy Scouts. The pots are washed and sold to florists. The money is used to purchase Scout equipment, * Ld . The Boy Scouts of Belfast are to assist in a "Scarcher's Scheme," organized at the request of the war office to operate in that area of Ireland after enemy air raids, The scheme was insti- tuted to deal with inquiries re- ceived from members of the Forces concerning relatives in dis- tricts where there has been a Nagi air attack. . * . Following a collection of books and magazines for soldiers' read- ing, the Boy Scouts of Windso found themselves with five tons unsuitable for the purpose. Sold as paper salvage, a substantial sum was realized and contributed to the "Chins Up' fund for the war distressed Scouts of Britain, * . . Some English Boy Scouts were delivering bundles of firewood. At one house was a rather deaf old lady... When she Gpened her door the boys announced - themselves with" a song beginning, "We're the Paradise Troop of Scouts." Quickly the door was shut in their faces. The Scouts left the wood at a rear door. It later trans- pired that the old lady had. spent a very bad night, under the im- pression that "parachute troops" had arrived, .
