The answer is. ai course, the Cburch. Last week, after the hovely services ai Sunday viere ovor, we sorted and packed the white gifts, and sent them off ta other parts ai the churcb.

And there the families viho are out ai luck, or just can't manage, go, ta get same help. The Gospel is preacbed in an old-fasbioned way, and social workers hold up their hands sometimes at the inefficient way charity seems ta be dis- pensed. I like the neyer way myscîf, where trained workers witb filing cards and index minds, bandle cbarity and hu- man needs scientificalhy and see that nothing is wasted bhut an overbead. But there's a place or two still leit for the ald- fasbioned way, in persanally dispensing Christmas cheer and year-raund belp. Sa someofa aur gifts go there.

"In the past year 1 bavse receîved more members, on pro- fession ai their iaitb and hap- tized mare babies than in al the previous years." He hadn't been called ta a great city churcb.

Deceptive Demands By Joseph Lister Rutledge Wben a burden becomes toa great something must give way. It is true ai human beiîîgs. It is true of industry. It may ho possible ta sec a semiblance ai 'justification forte worker's contintuing demand for a larger slîare ai increased values that result from the work ai bis bands. It is not possible, or 50 it appears ta us, ta sec a similar justification for paying anyooe for work lie does not do. Yet that, in essence. is what the guaranteed annuai wage sug- gests, for a guarantee becomos1 oporative only when samething g.ves way. Payment thon is ask- ed for doing notbing.

Ultimately the man who works Must provide for the man who doesn't work and contrib- utes nothing.
