shortage pi help forced us to confine our columns strictly- to ne a to eliminate jnarjy in teresting and educational items the sunday school lesson was used by many teachers we know for mater ial for their sunday morning lesson and we have al ways hoped to some day bring it back again we have been extremely fortunate in persuad ing rev r c todd of the georgetown united church to start us off on the right road again and last week he commenced a series of lessons nondenominational in scope which will add a local touch in place of the more general syndicated material formerly used we hope that readers of the sunday school lesson will not be confined only to teachers there is a message in it for every one of us and we can all benefit from this weekly religious talk the navy league in peacetime while many purely wartime organizations are closing their books on a job well done it is well to bear hvmind4hatqmegroups have a peacetime role to play among these is the navy league of

al the author had the bright idea of con cocting an imaginary story representing hintself as the brother of george a marine killed in thewar his wi dow barbara is left with two children and their lifesa vings of 5000 and several problems such as should she marry an older man at the bank where george used to work should she go to new york and get a job what should she do with th5000 mediums in 16 cities in the states claimed to have spoken to the imaginary george thirteen were in favour of barbara remarrying seven said no eight wanted her to go to new york nine told her to stay where she was suggestions for disposing of the 5000 ranged from buying government securities to putting it in a safe deposit box l while the author wrote the article in semihumorous vein he expressed concern about the harmful effects which could be induced in susceptible clients particular ly war widows luring the griefatrickerraway from the honest merapy offered by religion 1 his advice is to take
