I t t: Prayer Held as Greatesi Force For Serenity of Soul Prayer is the greatest force known for grappling with evcry- day problenis and for achieving screnity oi soul, declares Norman Vincent Peale, author ai "A Guide ta Confident Living", in The Rcader's Digest for Scptem- ber. 1 Not only does prayer have the power ta calm aur minds, Dr. Peale States, but i t an heal heart- ache and give us clear vision ta act for aurselves. "If angry, anxious, vindictive or enviaus, yau cannot think or adt wisely. But in prayer your emations came under contrai and your intellect penetrates the essence oi a probiema for the right answer." Many businessmen use prayer as a reliabie aid in their affairs, the author states. A ieading department-store executive com- munes with God* for 15 minutes each morning. An industnialist, who "uses his car as a chape!", states: "Driving ta the plant, I talk aven my problems with Him. Instead ai desperately expecting a prayer ta pull me out o! a mess, I condition my mind in advance ta make calm and rational deci- sians.,, The value af prayer was de- monstnatcd, Peale says, in a ne- cent sit-down strike at a large automobile plant. Management and unionists had reachc.d an im- passe. A union mass meeting, cali- cd for mid-afternoon despite the refusai ai police ta grant a per- mit, threatencd violence and bloodshed. But at a conference prece.ding the mass meeting a preachen suggestcd prayen and, "ta his astonishment," everyone joined. The resulting decision, a compromise by bath sides iead ta a meeting that was a "cam- plctely peaceful affair." Conversation with God should be a consistant habit, Peale urges, not a maddcned plea when one is at wît's end. "It is ta a Father and flot Santa Claus that we must learn ta speak, in trust and obed- ience. The supreme model xvas given in the Gethsemnane prayer: "Not my wilibýut thine lie donc". WHAT OTHERS SAY THE THIN EDGE Port Hope Arena Ready TIiWinter The largest artificial ice sur- face mn Canada, equalled only by the Maple Leaf Gardens, will lie housed in the Peter Campbell Memorial Arena in Port Hope. The contractor expects the building to be completed in three months. Concrete work was ex- pected to be started this week. The arena proper will lie 240 feet long by 105 wide with a seating capacity of 1,500 and ad- ditional standing roomn for 1,000. The roof, the peak of which is 42 feet above the floor, is supported by roof trusses which avoid the. use of posts which have been a nuisance ta the spectators in other rinks. The ice surface xvili be 200 feet by 85 feet. The dressing rooms will lie situated at the front of the build- ing. The appearance of the arena fromn the front xiii match those of the college buildings with the sides being aluminum. George McCullagh, Toronto publisher, donated the arena ta Trinity College in memory of the late Peter Campbell. It is situ- ated on the College Hill. The townspeople xvi le al- lowed the priviiege of using the arena when it is not required for schodI purposes.

I.. il, (Brockvjlle Recorder) With ail the hollering that is goii.g on ini Toronto ta niake Sun- day like any other day of the week, we stili feel that Ontario would do well ta dling ta the idea that Sunday should lie different from other days and that it should flot, be thrown open toalal interests, thinking of themselves, that would profit from its exploita- tion. True, they dlaima it's not for commercial purposes at present but it would just lie the thin edgc of the wedge and eventually it would be pretty hard ta tell whe- ther it was Sunday or flot.
