THE ~HATLEYBURIAN 1931 THURSDAY, DEC. _ 3rd, Page 2 Looks Like Very Quiet Election For Haileybury Little Interest Being Taken in Contest for Council; Vot- ing on Monday Up to the present there is little interest shown in the coming municipal election, when the vot- ers will be called upon to select six councillors from the seven who are in the running. The vot- ing will take place on Monday and the usual four polling places will be open throughout the day. Polling subdivisions Nos. 1 and 7 have been combined as in past years and the vote will be taken on Browning Street. This takes in all that part of the town north of Browning Street and east ot the T. & N. O. Railways, and north of Marcella Street and west of the T. & N. O. Nos. 2 and 3 combined, cover the ground from Browning Street south to Marcella Street and the polling place is on Main Street. No. 4 is Plan M46 and that portion ot Plan M73 lying south of Marcella Street, while 5 and 6, also com- bined, cover the extreme south and east sections of the town The polls will be open for the usual hours and the results will be known during the evening. It is not likely that the vote will be a heavy one, to judge from lack of interest being shown so far. THE RHYMING OPTIMIST By Aline Michaelis ; Since I Have Walked With Pain Since I have walked awhile with pain, I never can be cold, I never can be harsh again To hearts that would unfold The hazards of their lives to me, Their burden or their loss, I share in each man's misery Since I have known a cross. Since I have walked with pain I find That now I understand The need of being always kind, } Of grasping every hand } Outstreched for alms of love afd cheer And truth and tenderness, Till ways that once held only fear I learn at last to bless! \ For there I vowed in paths where pain And I together trod, \ I never would be stern again To any child of God.

M, LeBOURDAIS Director, Division of Education, Canadian National Committe for Mental Hygiene MAN LEARNT TO WORK MUST LEARN TO PLAY With Increasing Use of Machin- ery Leisure Time Must In- crease; Problem is to use it Healthfully We all know the value, in the social order, of work, but do we as fully appreciate the value of play? This is a question which is being asked with increasing in- sistence by those interested in public health, both. physical and mental. By "play" is meant, of course, recreation and all other sorts of leisure-time occupations. With the use of machinery, less time than formerly is required to do a given piece of work. The first effect of this mechanization of industry has been somewhat unfortunate, however; it has re- sulted in the unemployment of large numbers of people, while others work almost, if not quite, as hard as before. This is but a temporary condition; in time we shall, no doubt,' learn to make machinery the servant of all, rather than, as is now the case, the enemy of many. Leading industrialists of the world already agree that hours of labor must shortly be reduced, and that the number of working-days in the week be also reduced. So there seems little doubt that, in one way or another a great many people can count, in the very near future, upon a ater amount of leisure time. Fortunately this machine-age has brought with it facilities for leisure-time activities such as previous ages never dreamt of. Perhaps the foremost of these is the motor car; in more ways than one it is revolutionizing our modes of living. The movies, or even 5 Everyday Religion Vital Questions Rev. H. E, Wright, M.. Thornloe, Ont. We should consider it our for- tune to live in a world distressed ahd bewildered for, by reason of this, we have good scope for our endeavors which are concerned with nothing less than the recon- struction of the world. The prin- ciples as laid, down by Jesus Christ are eternal and it is our business to find out their applica- tion to everyday life. The con- fusion and consequent suffering so widespread today clearly re- veal how tragic has been our failure to grasp this truth. The same was true in the time of our Lord and we must not fail to realize His own statement of the case when He «aid He came not to destroy but to fulfill. In other words, looking backward He saw that the adjustment had not been made between _ ethics and religion, so His insistence upon the application of truth gave His teaching the sting that caused people to observe, "Never man spake like this man," for, "He taught as one having author- ity and not as the scribes." The scribes dwelt upon the sanctions of dead tradition. They were a sort of ecclesiastical law- yers who gaye spiritual guidance the one hand a_ prospect of in- creasing leisure-time, we also have, on the other, increasing means of occupying that time. 3ut do we really know how to play to advantage? We have been taught to work, but we have not been taught how to play. The after investigating the sacred things and hoary rabbinical docu- ments, to any who sought their counsel. The great crowd of common people knew not the law and relied upon these scribes familiar with the same He preferred to build on the foundations laid by the prophets, rather than on the requirements of the law and the sanctions of past ages. The prophets were teachers, not spectacular predictors of the future. They were very practic- al men who dealt with the world in 'which they, lived. Someone has pictured the prophet as a na- tional figure standing on_ the watchtower scanning the political horizon and interpreting world events in the light of conditions at home. His message born of burning conviction and intensity was then forthcoming. Stressing the nation's need of God, he called upon all people to repent "cease to do evil", "learn to do well', (Isa. 1, 16,17) and exalt right- eousness (which is justice in ac- tion.) The response of man en- abled the prophet to suggest the course of events in consequence, in this way only, can the prophet be regarded as predicting the fu- ture. Obedience to the call to re- pentance would justify the people in eagerly anticipating the "Day of the Lord'; if they refused, to heed his warning he foretold im- pending disaster bound to break upon their heads as a result of their evil ways. In spite of hard-heartedness, reverses and disappointments the prophets. felt that " Some- how good will be the final goal" (Tennyson) and consequently their hope was of an earth made fair and beauti- ful and orderly--the "Golden Age" described in the Old Testa- ment as the Coming Day of the Lord.

And| then there is the radio. It is yet| too soon to say what effect radio | will have upon the social order of the future, but there is every reason to believe that it will be far-reaching. The age-old diver- sions of mankind; reading, music art, and such recreations as walk- ing, swimming, games and sports of all sorts, still retain as great an attraction as ever for large numbers of people. So while therefore we have on CANADIAN NATIOONAL RAILWAY EARNINGS The gross earnings of the Can- Railways for the week ending, November 2lst, 1931 ,were $3,937,178 as compar- ed with $4,198,286 for the same period in 1930, a decrease of $261, 108.

Only as we are prepared to give our strength and talents to this service can we hope to save our souls (St. Mathew 16:25). In our hesitation and neglect we do well to recall the prophetic dec- lamation as an insult to God to pile high the altar to the neglect of a brother's need. Isaiah 1 :7-20, Amos 5:21-24, Micah 6:6-8, Hos- ea 6:6, Jeremiah 7:-1-23; The utter disregard of this warning was evident in the nations drink- ing "the wine cup of fury" (Jer. 25:15) during the great war. A modern prophet reiterates same when he says, "The greatest sin in the world is to believe that the principles of Jesus Christ are applicable and yet not to apply them" (Wm. Adams Brown) Let us labor incessantly in the erection of that city "which hath foundations whose Builder and Maker is God," ever conscious that His blessing, of Whom the angels sang one midnight many centuries ago, "Peace on earth to men of good-will", is 'upon the endeavors of all who help their fellow men.
