s the georgetown herald wegnoday evening july 30th 1941 timely topics for women war marriages arc courageous ah war marriages are a mistake they are risky they are immor al i have no patience with them they always turn out badly and bo are raised a chorus of voices whenever war marriages are discuss ed especially if the bride is very young and pretty and the groom stul has his stripes to win and who are these persons who are so oomplaoenuy sure that war marri ages are all wrong- nine times out ox ten you will and that they are men and womek well past their own youth who have forgotten or have never known what it means to be in love have you ever talked to any of the thousands of women who were young twentyfive years ago and who for some usually quite inadequate reason refused to marry the man they loved today many of them are middleaged spinstere wondering why they could ever have been so weak and cowardly as to throw away their greatest chance of happiness and what about the men who were sent overseas wonder ing bitterly why their loved ones hadnt the pluck to marry them and risk whatever the future had in store for both there is no one in this world so lonely or more to be pitied than a person who has no happy memories on which to look back those happy memories may be only a few short months while joan fol lows jack from camp to camp or just a glorious honeymoon on a seven- days leave before embarkation but the tempo of life is quickened in war time friendships are made more rapidly and cemented more surely because of the uncertainty of the fu ture and the knowledge that time is precious and so a week of war mar riage may hold more meaning than months of marriage in the slow days of peace marriage is after all the chief function of human life a function no woman wants to miss experiencing if she is to live completely and fully and a woman truly in love is a fool to refuse the happiness that is all too rare and precious whether it proves to be for a lifetime or for only a short leave but think of the risks says the killjoy well think of them and face them the endless dread and anxiety the possibility that your lov ed one may come home a cripple or may not come home the girl of today has sufficient character and com- monsense to know that everything worthwhilain life involves risk it is only the trifling no account things that one may acquire and keep with out hazard or effort our young folks if i know them will not let fear or cowardice keep them from finding the happiness together they might other wise miss let me tell you of one war marri age that is already ended they were engaged when the war broke out the girl was twenty and the boy a little her senior their parents thought they were too young but they were married shortly before he left for overseas and in february of this year he went to join f ranks of those immortals of wlfom mr churc hill said never has so much been owed by so many to so few i am so glad we were married she said we had some wonderfully hap py weeks together and i shall never forget them or him and as she spoke she smiled through her tears do you think she would have been wiser or happier if she had neier been that airmans wife if she had been left with only regret for an unfulfilled happiness instead of with a host of undying memories and what of the gallant young lad she married did not perhaps the know ledge of her love strengthen him to meet his final test it is longfellow who said o lost days of delight that are wasted in doubting and waiting i o lost hours and days in which we might have been happyr it is impossible of course to gener alize over most things of importance but one thing is sure when happi ness comes along no one can afford to hesitate in its acceptance or like the visitation of the angel we may only know it was there when it is gone barbara baines and vegetables have been reduced to save exchange as a result a shortage of canned fruits and vegetables this year is quite possible therefore householders win have to depend on homecanning to a much larger extent than usual for their winters supply mr mcklnnon pre sident of the board urges people to see that no fruits or vegetables are allowed to go to waste on the ground or cm the vines and likewise that none are lost through improper or careless methods of preserving he also points out that increased household preserving will tend to keep prices stable during the winter mon ths cking for medicine one of the inevitable results of a great war is the shifting of markets and trade routes here is an illustra tion in the prewar dais most of the worlds supply of chlorophyll msed both medically as a nerve tonic and for colouring soap and other products came from- germany and switsar- land today what are known as stinging nettles the bane of the english far mers are being converted from a na tional liability into a source of wealth ohe of the largest chemical firms in great britain is now using tons of nettles to produce chlorophyll not only for home consumption but for export as well scouts throughout britain are per forming a great national service by collecting large quantities of drug- producing herbs which in normal times are imported they collect the plants dry them strip them and des patch them to the drug manufacturers omrnattonal uniform sunday school lesson pato

is a great release from both compulsion and fear it is as though a citizen persecuted bythe secret police in a dictator country should step into the freedom of a democracy- it is like a student living under regimentation in a residential school going out into the world free to make his own declslons strangely enough tills new motive does not lead to licence many chris tlans are much stricter in the regu lations they impose upon themselves than any civil or criminal code re quires they have learned to appre ciate goodness for its own sake and they find that loyalty to goodness brings its own reward paul had worked hard under the law trying to attain perfection but in vain he gave himself unreservedly to jesus christ and found the power that the law had failed to give forgiveness 2426 christ said that those who are for given much love much experience of forgiveness does not usually come to laultless and selfsatisfied people but to those who have a sense of sin augustine is a classical example he spoke of his youth as that of so small a boy and so great a sinner year after year in his early manhood he suffered moral defeat onj day in the open air there came a flash of insight through a verse of scripture he saw the folly of living for animal appetites and was attracted by the possibility of putting on christ his centre of in terest was transferred from self to christ ever afterwards his personal life was lved in fellowship with christ only those who have found relief from the burden of guilt know the reality of forgiveness there is a sense of cleansing a hope for the fu ture and the utmost gratitude to god for pardon how may this experience be attained there is one certain condition god wlu take away our sins if we give ourselves to god along with our sins freedom 27 31 a highminded man who had lived for years in a mental prison says that the deepest thing in his religious ex perience is a new sense of freedom he has lost fear of himself and fear of what others say because he now cares only for his relationship with christ his only judge luther did his ut most to satisfy- all ecclesiastical re quirements but failed to gain inner peace one day on a pilgrimage seeking forgiveness there flashed upon his mind the inner meaning of the verse the just shall live by faith he discovered a secret power through his personal relationship to christ instead of being haunted by religion he was made happy by it instead of restrictions like those of an internment camp he began to enjoy a glorious liberty he sang hymns not as rou tine but through a desire for wor ship he read the bible not as a formality but because god spoke to him through scripture he took the communion not to save his own soul but to witness to christ he ceased to work for salvation and began to work from salvation the stories of release told by paul augustine luther and bunym are being matched in modern life peace 1 for long years john bunyan was tormented by- fears and selfaccusa tions he feared that he had com mitted the sin against the holy spirit and was doomed to live his life under the condemnation of god in match less imagery he has told how be laid his burden at the foot of the cross and never had to carry it again he found peace with god through jesus christ his faith became real through friend ship he lost the love of evil and dis covered the joy of an easy conscience what a wealth of christian truth is contained in verses i and 2 which read therefore being justified by faith we have peace with god through our lord jesus christ by whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand and rejoice in hope of the glory of god grace 2 m the bible and in christian bio graphy we are told of strong leaders who hove had a moral

toronto highway looks like any modest residence the only distinguishing mark is the sign inside there are flowers everywhere a spirit of good cheer and friendliness prevails the tables are set for some thirty people and we have seen the place completely filled on thanks giving day more than one hundred were served and twentyfive turned away half a century ago the house used to srve as a sheep pen half of it was built one hundred and fifty years ago the hunters moved in some fortyfour vears back rita was bom here they whole generation has hardly been away except on the rare trip to toronto
