THE CHURCH IN THE COMMUNITY = With she object of revitalizing the church this community, and creating greater.in- tin its work, a noted author and { her is conducting a nilssion in Whitby this week, and from all parts of the district people are thronging to hear him, The yelation of church to 'youth, the commun. ity, men ant women and the home is be, ing pointed out in a very forceful manner, and one.can readily believe that a greater realization of the importance of the church, under whatever name she may be Known, in this and other communities, followed by intensive action, will be the result. "The number of men and women who to- day declare that the'church is losing its hold "and ig of no particular value 'to a commun. ity, il, fortunately, very small and insigni- t, On the other-hand, there are those ho rightly believe that Canada. today is sit because the men and women who were yp pioneers in her development were largely df and chuich going people, There re p, 100, who believe that the Canada the future will increase in greatness only : ch keeps pace: with the. religious ceds of the people, particularly 'her shores from foreign ¢ '26al for the chiireh nation will dé + Whith; # churches, Few |. n 'might be other f ny twove 'to further the interes of i ¥ we 'by 'The Foes oud again i ¥ yy Lh Yoni pa "ent; There must also be nge of heart wind, a dango of ity <Onditions, 'that families will have sufficient m to live: in better quate Above all, a rey coftie val, of y hv foreed to live in slum areas, JAnnermost desives, Un- Bork 1s. av lable for these people, so that 'they can afford better dewllings, their case 1s not going to bo helped a front deal by simply tearing down the slum bulldings, hr le ng o Ww ' prove . difficult than the decision to . £1, 3 a RECEIVED WITH REGRET .

Taking ten indices as the basis for compari. son, the bureau points out that!in seven of the ten the. record stands higher than for the previous five years. Of the three which are lower, one is the figure for exports, and the decrease in this can be accounted for by the holding back of the wheat crop from the markets of the world. Taking the figure 100 as the average for the five years from 1926 to 1929 inclu. slve, the standing of these teh indices for February 'and 1 were as follows: Employment ...,.00000000,118 Pig fron industry «ives cee 182 Steel industry ...o0vveii00 148 Bank clearings ..... 000000, 1006 ; Car loadings © .....ovvveries 97 !
