of last year the directors have been planning for the event on tuesday and wed nesday next the results of their work will be seen when the competitors enter their animals oarticles in the various classes and tfte other attractions are presented for twentyone years acton fair has been pleading the public and attestation to its success is seen in the everincreasing crowds that attend each year judging from the advance literature sent out the fair of 1934 will be just a little better than its predecessors last year unfavorable weather was the lot of the acton fair which is considerable of a handicap to any outdoor attraction the local fairs fill a place in the life of the country that is valuable acton fair in its work is well to the forefront among the rural fairs its grounds and equipment make it one that is hard to surpass- the event next week is eagerly anticipated by the entire district- and by friends of acton from far and near explanation has been necessary editors in the course of their work and expres sion of opinion on matters of general interest are often called by other titles than those which rightly or wrongly belong to them the intimation in a toronto paper on monday evening that cj a dills had been recommended for appointment as a justice of the peace in ontario was however a circumstance which we have never before been called upon to face and which our friends have seemingly considered as big a joke as we have ourselves we have maintained on occasions possibly that the power of the press was equal or maybe surpassed that of the pulgit perhaps in our enthusiastic ad vertising material we have pointed to the large con gregations which the press reaches each week but never have we hinted or hoped for ordination or shown any reason why the prefix rev should be placed before our name the dispatch with the item came from oakville such a mistake would have never come from the northern section of the county where we are better known we acknowledge the southern compliment tind forgive the newspaper for the error but make an especial request please do not repeat it our verbal explanations locally are exhausted untimely the other day the mail and empire carried quite a lengthy article headed degradation of public life in ontario which went on to complain in column length of the dismissals of the present government ahd the changes that were being brought about which haye included the discharge of a number of tory appointees we are not upholding the party system of patronage and nave always believed that ruthlessly practised it did not make for efficiency ontario has just ousted a regime that worked it past the limit hundreds of the persons now being dis charged secured their positions for none but political reasons let us cite an example and so that we can know whereof we speak we will take the free press for the example for several years the department of highways carried on an edeucational advertising campaign in spite of all efforts the free press could not secure this advertising and the same can be said of another paper in halton county in one town in which there were two papers the advertising was given to both papers there was no reason for refusal but just refusal iwhen the election was announced two advertisements from the depart ment of highways were scheduled to appear in the free press and likewise the other paper in the county previously omitted although other ad vertisements appeared in the selected papers fol lowing the election we were informed upon inquiry thatonly the two advertisements r prior to elec tion were scheduled for the free press political patronage was rife during the regime of the past governments nearly every other line of activity could give similar experiences to those of our own the cleanup will assume just as extensive propor tions as the extent to which patronage was practised we in halton have seen the appointment of those of conservative leanings under liberal regime but have yet to reecall the appointment of liberals under the conservative rule in this county the son of a former conservative candidate in the provincial house received an appointment at oakville from the liberal government in power at ottawa it ill- behooves the conservative press to make any outcry at the present time such as that of the mail and empire trie other mornings getting acquainted at home a visit about acton and to its manufacturing establishments which was undertaken as a sight seeing tour for visitors from the southern- states impressed- us also of the home town quite often the places about us are too little known to those who live closest as we said this tour of the town we live in was undertaken to show visitors we won dered after our trip about acton just how rnjiny actonians actually know of the community enter prises and manufacturing that goes on about them other than the line in which they are working we are in the acton factories quite often and yet there were parts of these plants that we havent visited in years the changes in the process of manufacture have been remarkable enlargements have been made and output increased the products have been im proved and new methods of manufacture have been adopted we do not know whether the manufactur ing establishments could give to all visitors the same attention that was accorded the party we accompani ed if the practice became general but we venture that a visit occasionally to actons manufacturing establishments and a trip through would impress most actonians- with a keener appreciation of the importance of these institutions fo the community and greater pride in the place they fulfil in the dominion and elsewhere editorial notes there is one consolation in being in very moder- ate circumstances these days there is absolutely no danger of being kidnapped and held for a large ransom the sunday school lesson lfor sunday sept 16th brampton shoe strikers have settled their dif

registered attendance gain and increased business and im provement any fair that can combat the weather element nd win out is entitled to greatness in spite of the dire predictions throughout the year and the constant menace to crops of the dry weather farmers about this district who have threshed are very pleased with the yield which all goes to prove again that more than half our worries concern things that never really happen the editors of the montreal star and the mon treal gazette recently stated that rural and small town communities had no agencies so valuable for their support and mainstay as the local newspaper they expressed regret that many localities had not given undivided support to this potent organization for its well being and permitted papers to passout of existence afterwards realizing that a grave mis take had indeed been made isaiah contrasts false and true worship goldn xcxt who shall ascend into the hill of the lord and who shall stand in his holy place he

consequent spurning of their offerings festivals fast and prayers the first verse of this chapter is the title of the entire book the entire sixty- six chapters of the book of isaiah con stitute the vision of isaiah the son of amoz which he saw concerning judah and jerusalem in the days of tjzziah jotham ahaz and hezekiah kings of judah isaiah the actual historic isaiah the son of amoz saw this whole vision and it is not scholarly and scientific but utterly unscholarly and unscientific to attribute any part of the book to some purely imaginary eeutero- isaiah conjured up by german infidels withoutone stogie shred of historic proof that such a person ever existed and he never did a very laborious at tempt has been made by able men to show that there were two or more isaiahs the attempt has broken down completely the argument for the in tegrity of the book is unanswerable isaiah did not write his own specula tions but what he saw the things which god presented to his cental vision cf num 12 6 24 4 16 2 peter 1 21 isaiahs day as remarkably rich- in prophets ccf hos 1- 1 amos 1 1 micah 1 1 when jehovah speaks both heaven and earth should listen v 2 god had dealt with peculiar love and tenderness with judah as a father vith his own children but judah in stead of exhibiting filial gratitude and love had rebelled against their father vs 3 4 how black sin appears when we see it as rebellion against a fathers love cf deut 9 2224 jcr 2 513 mai 1 6 this description of sin ap plies just as truly to our sins as to judahs israel had shown less sense and less gratitude than an ox or an ass the same may be said ot all sinners today it took four meanful phrases to describe the full extent of israels devotion to evil tv 4 r v three more phrases of awful import describe their conduct to go after sin is to for sake god and that is the supreme folly of which man can be guilty jer 2 13 17 10 to sin is also to despise the holy one of israel v 4r v the name holy one of israel is one of the characteristic expressions of the en tire book perhaps its origin is to be found in ch 6 it sets forth the foun dation truth of the bible the truth that god is holy cf 1 john 13 sin is also est from god r v cf col i 21 romans 8 7 judah was obdurate in his rebellion against god no matter how they were stricken for their sins they did not repent but re volted more and more this describes many a present day sinner their cor ruption pervaded their whole being head and heart verse 6 is a vivid picture of men out of christ verses 79 show jehovahs judgment on their sin god never lets sin go unpunished whether it be the sin of jin individual or of a nation this picture was historically true and according to what god him self had foretold long before 2 chron 28 5 1621 ps 107 34 39iev 26 34 deut 28 33 34 43 4852 but jehovah showed mercy even in a time of judgment and left them a remnant though a very small one cf lam 3 22 in all gods dealings with men it is always the remnant that is saved romans 9 27 r v 11 46 is 10 22 23 24 13 14 matt 7 14 in every generation men as a whole will not yield to god but the few do and are saved 1 john 5 19 it was not sacrifices burrit offerings incense feasts sabbaths and prayers vs 1015 as such with which god was wary and which were an abomina tion to him but these things when offered by those who turned a deaf car to his words and were sinful in their lives cf ptov 28 9ps 66- 18 some strange alleged scholars draw utterly unwaranted conclusions from vs 1015 by tearing them out of and ignoring their coivtexk n a call to repentance and promise of abundant pardon 1620 though israel had sinned beyond measure still there was abundant par don for them the one condition was true thoroughgoing repentance sin is moral filth it defiles hands and heart god demanded- that they wash hands and heart by putting away sin this is gods unvarying demand of sinners in all ages jcr 4- 14 jas 4 8 2 cor 7 1 there is no salvation for sin ners so long as they continue in sin there is salvation fctt any sinner if he will only forsake sin is 55 7 all the evil we do is before the eyes of god he hates it and demands that we put it away from before his eyes repent ance has two sides cease to do evil learn to do well d mere negative re pentance ceasing to do wrong will not satisfy ood cf matt 3 10 psalms 34 14 37 2 amos 5 15 romans 12 9 eph 4 29

his will is damnation judah did it and were literally devoured with the sword cf 2 chron 36 1416 this liad been foretold to them from the beginning 1 sam 12 25 they thought it too severe to be literally true but the mouth of the lord had spoken it and what god speaks always comes truo to the letter no matter what smooth hopes false prophets may hold out what the mouth of the lord hath
