Odd Fellows .. (Continued from Page 1) wounded traveller, Dr. Fletcher continued that Jesus in outlining the term neighbor, meant one who is close by us. And that were we to examine the parable closely enough would find that neighbor meant anyone who needed help or assistance, whether enemies or not. 'We might think that this parable was old stuff, the pastor added, but the parable had especial meaning today, as we should strive to be neighbors to those even in foreign eountries who needed our help. o SDs to the ten Commandments, tcher continued, that if men loved their fellows as they loved themselves, there would "be no danger that they would want to kill him, steal from him, covet his goods, or adulterate. Then there would not be very much room for spites, hates or jealousies. This would also be a solution to our pre- sent day problems; love thy neigh- bor as thyself, something which was not too evident at the present time throughout the world, Concluding his address, the pastor admonished the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs pre- sent to go on with their work of relieving distress of the sick, the widow and the orphan.

Living Costs Rise With Higher Wages By LESLIE BRODIE Canadian Press Correspondent Sydney, Australia--(CP)-- Aus- tralia's cost of living has risen sharply since the abolition of re- gulations that pegged wages at a steady level throughout the war. As soon as the government can- celled wage-pegging last October the unions rushed to the industrial courts with 'demands for increased pay and as quickly as the judges awarded new rates, retail prices went up to take in the added cost of production. To absorb an over-all increase of 14 per cent in wages, retail prices have e up more than 10 per cent since January, according to fig- ures issued by the Commonwealth statistician, The federal government is said to be worried at the rising costs and fears that the standard of livipg in HAD NO LICENSE Pleading guilty here today to a charge of driving without an qpeta- tor's license, Earl Rutter, 79 Brock Stregt West, was fined: $10 and costs or 10 days by Magistrate Ebbs. first | of brakes and looked around to see being used-to tew the mired bike.

The witness, Madison Sale of Toronto, told the eourt the.two right wheels of his car were on the south shoulder and the two left wheels on the pavement.

Harold Stainton, minister of Wes- ley United Church at suburban Mi- mico' told his congregation Sun- day that 40 per cent of Protestant children do not go to Sunday school and did not understand the impor- tence of religion. "Isn't it about time we did some- thing about |t?" he asked. "Isn't it about time we did something about establishing the open Bible and family worship." Mr. Stainton said that 50 per cent of the older ministers have been superannuated, or have died, and there have been comparatively few younger men coming forward to take their places. It would re. quire all the graduates this year to fill vacancies in just 'one "of the seven conferences of the Uni- ted Church of Canada.
