of a new council fngijs1i tkip they were not prepared to hear other maypr gibbons said that he jesus forgive the sins of the man j supported the grant but that there sick with the palsy neither did they expect to see him walk the faith of the man and his friends in jesus divine power meant nothing to them they lacked even a thought of such a possibility the sins of men in their outlook were to be condemned and punished not forgiven only god could forgive but they failed to see god in christ so they called him blas phemer publicans and sinners were folk to shun and not souls to be won at least the pharisees attitude would so indicate it is little won der that when they found jesus eating and drinking in such com pany that their indignation grew and that their false reports multi plied others might rejoice when a de formed man having great faith re ceived the use of his withered hand in the synagogue upor the sabbath day but the enemies of jesus could only sec in him an en emy to their long cherished sab bath which they had encumbered with burdensome laws which cur- tailed men even from doing good upon that day they had lost the spirit of the day and of the original law remember the sabbath to keep it holy consequently when one appeared fulfilling the spirit of the day but violated some petty interpretation of a pharisaical n i ture they caused great opposition the application the christian church has endea voured to cany on the ministry of the christ although there have been times when she has lost sight f that true spirit of love and dc- votion to god and her fellowmcn i which ought to underly such a min- i istry for the most partshe has ul- jifiid as closely as human frailty would allow to the pattern of her inril to do mi docs at- uro popuhuity ofi involves opposition sometimes subtle and underhanded sometimes pen and hoiest the christian of today cannot expect to escape op position if he adheres to the ex ample and teachings of his christ he can expect to be unpopular but u is well to remember that to do the hard right brings greater compensation than to do the easy wrong from the weeks lesson we can learn 1 not to be pliarisaical in our religion 2 to stand firm for righteousness in the face of opposition a to keep the spirit of the div- i ine law 4 to examine our use of sun day since sunday observance seems to be a matter of controversy in our generation and has been brought to the fore locally let us onsifler the following i what is the christian way of observing the lords day 2 is it fair to say whatever in terferes with rest fropi labour or the worship of god or doing good to others ought not to be done t do we use the opportunity the day affords to nourish our spir itual life 1 is it true that when sunday cease to be a worship day that it will soon cease to be a rest day 5 is commercialization a threat to sunday as a n day of rest from labour of worship and of doing good j 0 jesus worked on the principlo that the sabbath wnn to be used for mans highest good do the motives underlying our sabbath living fit into man blght good helpful quotation ft iii easy to ignore sunday in by tfay bird not long ago a monthly digest magalne carried an article on the tobacco habit the idea being that to stop cigarette smoking it is not the smoke whfch 1m hard to break but the habit routine we set up in the act of smokhvg it was sug gested that instead of the usual pocket a different plat for the cigarettes such qh leaving them in a dravuer or- overcoat matches or lighter on a fairly inaccessible khelf svould disturb the automatic motions of smoking to uuch mi cit- unt that he dayjs use of tobacco wouldbe noticeably cut it would be neeetisary to change positions oviiiy day ln order to prevent the fnrimitldri of a new routine a- w days of this and we notice that the nurhber of our- olgarfcuejj- have droppoii v considerably find yet there are none oftho tortures asso ciated wjth an abrupt decision to stop smoking- from thjit stugo it isa simple stop to cut but the fags entirely- it seems to me that the habit routine is followed in a lot of the things we do and say and possibly ye are missing plenty of interest in our daily lives because we are liv ing in a habit if everybody did something different from their us ual routine every day we would at least have a new feeling of accom plishment and something extra for our conversation maybe we could have council declare a reverse habit week this summer when we should all wear ocd socks or our shirt on backwards imd tho gals one high heel shoe and one low what a line for not conform ing to the informal dresu and uwell the funds of the new grc or some local charity let me confess that i tried the stop smoking system and found it works but im still smoking a source of irritation mentioned this week is the lack of courtesy on trains when seats are at a prem ium there is always someone steeping with their feet on an other seat or baggage piled on the seat beside someone industriously looking out of the window one young couple was heard to explain that as they had a long journey ahead of them they needed the four seats
