» Early Newspapers Of Ontario Press of Province First Found Its Feet In the 1850s -- Gave People Adequate, If ardy, Coverage A florid era in Canadian journal , when the Ontario press first * found its feet and filled its columns, with elaborate patent medicine ad- vortisements © and.' belated news clipped from newspapers of other centres," wag described last week to the Royal Society of Canada in a paper by J." J. Talman, pro- # vincal archivist of Ontario. The paper - dealt with Ontario's - newspapers: in -the 1850's and came to the conclusion that by and large the average citizen in Upper Can-- ada, or Canada West, as it was called in that era, received ade- quate and in many cases compre- hensive, if tardy, news coverage, When Modern Dailies Began The modern dally. newspapers, Mr, Talman said, may be consider- ed as having come to Ontario in the 1850's. There had been a daily "established in 1836 but it was pré- mature. The "British Whig" was founded in :1849--Ilater the Kingston Whig-Standard. A serles of dailles followed in fast succession, among these the Toronto Globe, and the London Froe Press. When tho electric tele- graph was established between Halifax and Goderich, on Lake Huron, and the era -of railway bvilding bezan, the papers marche ed hard in band with iuoo vial LroSress, v -! -- But the telegraph was still in an daly siuge, and newspapers relied on cach other for news. The ex- changes were all-important, and often the country cditors had more timo. to read through newspapers sent by post from the United States than tho editors in the cities, This resulted "in such incongruous situ atlons as a Streetsville, Ont,, paper featuring eews of Jenny Lind's mairiage--which it clipped from a New York paper--and a Toronto _ paper in turn quoting the Streets. ville paper to this effect.

THE LESSON IN ITS SERFING Time The First Epistle to Ti- mothy and the Epistle to Titus were written between: Pa®'s first and second imprisonments in Rome about A.D. 64:68. Fhe Second Ep- istle to Timothy was written just shortly before 'Paul's martyrdom, A.D. 67. We are not quite sure of what time he wrote the Epistle to Philemon, probably about A.D. 62. Place -- All these epistles were written from Rome.- The Epistles to Timothy were probably sent to Ephesus; the Epistle to Titus was sent to Crete; the Epistle to Phile. mon was sent to Colossae. Young Soldier of Christ Before considering some of. the verses of Paul's two letters to Ti. mothy it will be profitable for us - to recall the outstanding facts re- garding the life and work of this young soldier of Christ. It seems probable that Timothy was born at Derbe or Lystra, his father be- ing a Greek, his mother Eunice a Christion Jewess, It would appear Prinfed Text, Golden ary journey found in Lystra, some- what to his surprise, this highly esteemed believer, and, discerning in him and apt pupil and a prowm- ising helper, he had him set -apart by the presbytery for the labour of 'an evangelist. The three most powerful incent-=< ives to holy living which can exer- cise a Christian are those which Paul continues to emphasize to Ti- mothy as he writes him this urg- ent, "tender, lofty letter, namely, the fact that Christ has come.and saved us from our sins, the fact that we are appointed by him to be . men and women of God, and the. fact that Christ is coming back ag: ain; . the power. of. a finished re- demption, the power of a holy cal. ling, and the power of a glorious of Christ Jesus:through the will of hope! © 2, Timothy ::1. Paul, an apostle =@God, -accordiiig to the promise of lite which is in. Christ Jesus, 2. to' Timothy, od beloved child: Grace, and Christ Jesus our Lord. 3.1 do thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers in a pure conscience, how unéeasing- is my.renembrance of thee fn my supplications, hi and day 4, longing to see thee, re- membering thy tears, that I may -be tilled with joy. "This is a beauti- ful and pathetic thanskgiving. - 6.

Paul directs hig" pen to the very heart of Timothy. What Paul urg- es Timothy to do Is to: hold fast --and-mever swerve from- the great; = deep," unchangeable; - undeniable truths concerning Christ and his 'salvation, We may allow differenc- _es In secondary matters, but we must never move from the founda- tion- truths of our faith, - Titus and Timothy were closely -assoclated as companions and help- ers of Paul. Timothy was sensitive and affectionate, also sympathetic and dependent. Titus reveals more of energy, vigor, of discretion, and of decision, Titus appears first In (ial, 2:1, where Paul remarks that when he went up to Jerusalem with Barnabas from Antioch, - together wlth his adopted son, Timothy; and- that Titus remained with him dur- ing his three years of ministry in Ephesus. It was he whom Paul sent "to Corinth witlh the First Epistle to the Corintblans, All that wo know of Philemon we know from the short letter. We may fairly assume that he was a native and inhabitant of Colossae, where his son lived and labored; that he was brought to Christ by "st. Paul (v. 19). The object of the: "letter to"Philemon fs explained by its contenjs. Onesimus, a slave of Philemon, had run away frgm his - master and found his way 'to the city of Rome: 1. Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jee sus, and "Timothy, our- brother, to Philemon, our beloved .and fellow- worker, 2. and to Apphia ou: ter, and to Archippus our fellow: soldier, and to the church In thy house: 3.

Bacterial action beneatl is also as- sisted. . While a small hoe is almost an essential implement there are to- .day other things which will relieve. much of the drudgery which the hoe still represents in the eye of the growing country boy. A little three fingered wire cultivator will work wonders around and under growing flowers and vegetables. A Dutch hoe which is shoved along about an inch under the soil will cultivate a hundred feet or so of perennial bed in thirty minutes. For vegetable rows, there are small cultivators, pushed by hand which will cultivate a plot 100 by 60 in well under an hour and 'hese can be procured in larger size for horse or tractor. - 2 CAN START. YET Even in the warmer sections of Canada it is still possible to have a splendid garden, There are plen-. ty of things to plant which. - will come on quickly. Experienced gardeners in recent, years have. becun purposely holding back a por- tion of lettuce, spinach, carrot and other vegetable seeds so that the ~harvesting-scason- may be extend- ed just that much longer. Early June is the idéal tine in most of Canada to plant sced.of . those hot weather things like mel- dn, cucumber, mediuni or late corn and beans. 'It is not safe in many districts to set .out celery, toma- _ to, cabbage and pepper plants 5. Hearing of thy love, and of the fajth which thou hast toward-the Lord Jesus, and' toward all the saints, The love was displayed to- wards tho Christian congregation, the faith towards the Lord Jesus "Christ; but they are so knit togeth- - er whero they truly exist that St," Paul speaks of them both as exhib. ited alike towards Christ and 1lo- wards his church. 6.

For ] had much joy and com- fort in thy love, because the very hearts of the saints have been re: freshed through thee, brother. . The apostle now proceeds to ask ~ hig friend to take back into his * household the slave Onesimus. He agks Philemon to do this for a num- ber of reasons. , 21..Having confidence in thine obedience I write unto thee, know- ing that thou wilt do even beyond what I say, 22. But withal prepare me also a lodging; for I hope that _ through-your prayers I shall be granted unto. you, These words in: dicate Paul's hope that he would soon he set free again, "and same _ to Fridays at 8.30 p,m, much sooner.

Nations 'Economic advantages that would accrue to Canada through the ad- mission of carefully solected groups of rcfugees from Greater Germany were outlined last week by. Miss Constance Hayward, executive sec- retary of the Canadian National Committee on Refugees and Vie: tims of Political Persecution. Would Bring Capital Along Many of the refugees from Ger- many," Czecho-Slovakia and Aus Ctrla, were skilled artisans, she statd ed, and many were able to bring a cons'derable amount of capital with them. She told of how somé¢ 17. 000 British unemployed had ob- tained work: at jobs created through the settlement of about 12,000 refugees. There had been a similar creation of new work for unemployed peoplo in the Nethor- - Tlands by refugees who had settled in that country. Use Canadian Raw Materials "] can't see why that is not pos- sible in Canada," she said. Refer- ring to the large amount of manu- tactured goods that had been im- ported into Canada from Germany © last year, 'ot these she suggested that many articles could .be made hero from Canadian_raw, materials it_refugees who could start these into the industries were brovght i time country and at Lhe same create. a demand for labor, Because they cannot afford a proper air raid warning siren, vil- lagers of Wighton, England, have provided their chief Air Raid Pre- cautions warden with a hunting horn whose call can be heard more" than a: mile.
