Page 6 THE BATE yeu RLAN THURS., OCTOBER 29th, 1938 Everyday Religion Vital Questions A Series of articles by the minis- ters ofthis district JESUS AND YOUNG PEOPLE or Are Young People Irreligious? By Rev. John Moore, B.A. Elk Lake We hear all too many charges that the young people of this modern era are pleasure-mad and irreligious. In my experience with young people in several cities and towns, I have found that such charges are ill-founded. At summer confer- ences, Y. P. Society meetings and even at social functions, I have discovered them deeply interested in religion. In fact, I feel that generally speaking, they are en- deavoring conscientiously to ap- ply the principles of Jesus-to the numerous perplexing problems which they are called upon to face. Is it not possible that the fault lies not so much with them as it does with ourselves? To an alarming extent, we have endea- vored to present to them solely the picture of a Saviour who liv- ed almost two .thousand years ago. We have failed, so it seems to stress the irrefutable fact that the Master not only lived almost two thousand years ago, but that He is living today. The text which we need is "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever". For that is the picture of the Christ which our young people are seeking today. And yet how we persist in depicting Him in"a strictly Palestinian set- ting amid conditions that were so vastly different from those of today. And, naturally, being in- telligent young people, living right up to the minute, they are finding it difficult to apply the teachings which are connected so rigidly with an ancient setting, to modern conditions. And ignor- ant of this problem of transition, we proceed to criticize them for not attending Church and for not showing sufficient interest in other Church activities. schools, This is merely a theory; but I) share the view of a prominent leader of a young men's Bible class: "Why attempt to take the young man back to Galilee when it is so easily possible for the One whom we would have | him meet by the shores of that} lake to come to London, to New} York and to Toronto?" To quote still further: "We don't want to so back, but we need Jesus to- day." The young people need Him; moreover they are seeking Him. But to experience His power in their lives, they need Him in a modern setting. And there is nothing heretical about that. Forif Christianity is to ex- ert the force of which only it is capable, it must be practical. It must be used today in all the problems which, both young and old, are called upon to face. And if these problems are to be solved successfully, they must be en- countered in the light of how the Master Himself would handle them, if He were present in the flesh with us today. To sum up, that is the practical conception of Christianity for which our young people are yearning. Consequently, che pic- ture of the Living Christ is t he one which we should never fail to present.

There are many masters but year on year, Though the conquests widely spaced, Through hope by hope or fear by fear The trend of life is braced. are Though the heart of man is a battleground Where the good and bad con- tend, The way of his spirit is plainly found 3y the sum of his work at the end. Time What has time taught me Through the swift years? What has he brought me? Laughter and tears. Gifts that were shining, Gifts that were gray; Rare joys devining, But for a day. What has time told me? Treasures of truth, Yet they were sold me Dearly, for youth. Youth was the payment On time's demand, Youth's gorgeous raiment Made of love's hand. Life's tree is shaken Of hopes I sought, | Yet, time has taken Less than he thought. New Air Mail Schedule for Toronto to Chicago Service A new schedule of the Toronto Detroit-Chicago air mail service went into effect on October 19th, and this makes a _ considerable saving in time between the points where stops are made... These points include Hamilton and Windsor and the schedule shows that mails leaving Toronto at 6 p.m. arrive in Chicago just six hours later. On the eastbound trip about six and one half hours are required. Notice of Sale for Taxes Section 112, Chapter 238, R.S.O. 1927) Notice is hereby given that un- der and by virtue of a warrant from H.

The CANADA STARCH CO. Limited "BENSON'S > GOLDEN. SYRUP N THIS town are many retailers who could and should have larger busi- nesses. The right way to get on in business is to set sales mark for the year -- $5,000, $10,000, $20,000, $50,000-- whatever is reasonable and within one's financial ability. Then the year's objective should be reduced to weekly and monthly amounts, in accordance with the season- al character of one's business. Then the next thing to do is to cal- culate the number of sales transactions needed each week to produce the weekly sales objective. Thus, if one's average sales transaction is 50 cents, and if one's weekly sales objective is $100; then, . clearly, the retailer must have 200 sales \ / Making Money In Retailing + | Our Advertising Department stands ready to help retailers prepare customer-attracting advertisements Issued by the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Asociation transactions every week.
