the georgetown herald wedneiday november i8tn a feature page news parade byo ilea 1 cwha ixkiitives s oversets army your bounden duty tnis u tlie time of year when ones thoughts turn to our civic government two years have paued since local taxpayers have had the opportunity of voicing their approval or disapproval of those holding the offices of mayor reeve and councillors of the municipality how ever the two year ban on municipal elections has fallen by the way and we are again faced with another nomin ation meeting in the very near future it is the bounden duty of every ratepayer to take an interest in municipal politics not only to make sure that the right men are appointed to handle the affairs of our town but to see that those who are appointed carry out our wishes and conduct public business in a sane and satisfactory manner during the past number of years the business of the corporation has been conducted v rry successfully by our representatives and georgetown has prospered the bonded debt has been gradually reduced to a point where it is no longer n drag on the taxpayer and the operating revenue has shown a surplus sufficient to pur chase victory bonds in the two loan campaigns civic improvements have also been adequately taken care of and to ctte two incidents we take into account the recent purchase of a new fire truck and the widening of the papcrmill road but perhaps there is still room for improvement on our civic body probably there are other improvements that need to be projected and again we cite the necess ity of garbage collection especially in wintertime when it is hard to reach the public disposal plant if you consider our council worthy of reelection even as a wartime measure or if you would like to sec some action on your pet ideas come out to nomination and be ready to voice your opinion killed over england almost every day we read these words or similar words in the doily press sometimes we ore opt to glance over the casualty lists of the present war lightly but when the blow strikes home someone has made the supreme sacrifice whom you have known and esteem ed as a friend the picture suddenly changes and you wonder how long this dastardly war must go on before the beast of berlin as he is so well named will be brought to his knees in victory for the allies just this week we read these lines we gazed on the picture of one of our best friends of a few years back who paid with his life that freedom and liberty might once more return prior to enlistment his life held such promise he was a natural born artist and designer and a sample of his art may be seen in our heme but duty called and he left everything that promised a fine career to fly bombers over egypt he was expected home for christmas hav ing been recently posted to patrol over england what a shock to his wife of hut a few weeks prior to his going overseas his family and his friends when they received his cable killed over england remembrance

i osrtauusss u a last week we saw the things which mar the life of the family now we tum to those things which ctvs strength to the home and to dally life this ls a lesson much needed lust now when so much of our nor mal home life is thrown out of joint we begin at the right place when we say that there must be a i ratecbluea of gad la las beau i euod 2 1t josh u 14 is failure at this point is without question the crest mistake of our day christianity touches every phsse cf life but nowhere is its blessed influence of greater impor tance than in the home our lesson suggests that this is to be done in two ways tn our home 1 dy faith in god exod 1 14 the story of the birth of the babe who was to be uosas possibly the greatest civic social and religious lesder of all time reminds us that the jewish people who had found aver la the eyes oi the pharaohs in josephs time were now bstcut persecuted a decree had tons out that all boys were to be destroyed at birth here were two parents faced with the awful fact that their baby boy was condemned to death did they weep in fear and despalrf no thsy trusted god and sent the utile on forth on s venture of faith tha charming story of which follows lh verses of our lesson god honored their faith by using their enemies to serve them 2 service for god josh 14 14 is joshua whe followed moses ss the godeppolnted leader of is rael was giving his last admonition to his people he knew bow ther hod repeatedly turned from god tn unbelief and sin yes that even now some were worshiping false gods he pleads with them to turn to ths one true god but notice that his plea is mode effective by the feet that he and his house were serving the lord every man who has position of leadership in this world is responsible for the use of that place of power os a testimony for god now and then we hear ofl high public official in our own land who loves and serves christ in sin cerity and our hearts rejoice th faith of o whole notion may thus be atrenglhcned every one of us has s sphere of influence and our family life counts for or against god in our own com munity and among our own friends the members of a family that recogniie god have a high h regard for on another ta tto boms eph 81831 614 it is pure hypocrisy for the family to parade an outward show of re ligion which does not effectively touch the relstlonshlps within th home incidentally it u the kind of hypocrisy which ls strikingly in effectivemen see through it too easily what than does christianity do for the home llselft it deurmlnas di rects sweetens yes glorifies th rslsuon between 1 husband and wife eph 8 1831 this passage puts marriage on ths highest plsne comparing it to the relationship between christ snd the church thus meniegets the joining of man and wife in a sscred union which calls forth lovs tn its highest snd noblest sense this means that the husband cherishes his wife as his own body against which no man would do an harm and for which he makes sirs possible provision for its comfo health usefulness and attractive ness such love between parents wilt lesd the entire home hfe along in a serene hsppy and wholesome way it will not only doubts th toy but will give strength tn th hour of sorrow dividing the griefs and burdens of life it will set the pattern for the right relation between 3 parents snd children eph 14 the first snd one might al most say the only law of childhood is obedience it is gods way to joy and a satisfying life experience for the child in tho christian horn the command to obey carries with it ths understanding that the parents are in ths lord what father mother is competent to direct s chc apart from faith in chrlstt notice too that ths parent has aa obligation to deal intelligently and kindly with the child we need a great deal of improvement and par hops instruction at that point au thority asking obedience is neces sary but it can be wise and kind above all there ts to be a divinst
