Certainly, in this day of 7need, it would be a tragic waste of a potential for good not to find some means of using this widespread teacher desire to contribute more generously and effectively to so vital an area of education. The Christian Science Monitor Recording cemetaries an interesting hobby There are many old cemeteries which are becoming overgrown and abandoned and unless the information is taken from the headstones now, it will be lost forever. The moment may well have come for a reexamination of the school‘s role in fashioning a young person‘s moral outlook and of the possibility of once again utilizing this allâ€"inclusive agency. Although greater schoolside emphasis on the principles of a moral life must be careful not to seek to displace the teachings of home and church, a rightly conceived school program could, hopefully, confer farâ€"reaching benefits on society. Indeed, there was a time when schools in the Englishâ€"speaking world. both public and private, were looked upon as irreplaceable sources of moral instruction. School books were written with moral principles in mind (the McGuffey readers being an outstanding example). Teachers were expected to stress such principles as the basis of a happy and worthwhile life. While this attitude has by no means died out, it is neither as strongly nor as successfully emphasized as formerly. + These findings contain both a warning and a hope. They show what certainly should have been long apparent, that there is a crying need for a greater presentation of moral principles to the young. At the same time, it is hopeful that so heavy a proportion of teachers believe that this is something which the schools could undertake with a reasonable chance of success. Although we strongly beliéve that the two most effective agencies for the implanting of a firmly grounded moral outlook in the young are the home and the church, we also find much merit in efforts to supplement this with further moral education on the outside. And, in cases in which home and church instruction is wanting, the schools might well be the only source of such education, thereby meeting a sorely felt need. A wide survey of teachers in British schools found that some 60 percent of those with more than 10 years‘ teaching experience strongly including moral education in the curriculum.

Their Toronto Branch has taken on the project of recording all cemeteries in York County particularly, and they are most anxious to hear about and locate all the older ones before it is too late in order to record and make available the inscriptions on tombstones for the use of historians of today and of posterity. Few ~realize how many people were healed by the Master.. We read in Matthew (15: 30), "Great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind. dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus‘ feet;, and he healed them." Scenes like these were repeated over The Bible contains numerous promises _ of spiritual healing, and both Old and New Testaments record many cases of health regained in fulfillment of these promises. Elijah and Elisha prophesied by their works as well as their words. Their â€" healings furnish a sample of what was to come with the advent of Christ Jesus. The A postle Paul, standing in judgment before King Agrippa. asked the king this pertinent question (Acts 26:8): "Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?" Disbelief in the omnipotence of God has appeared in every â€" age. Today, this similar question might be asked: Why should the fact that God heals the sick be thought "a thing incredible"? Police radar cars have been on the street several times recently but they are never here at the right time. They are here during the rush hours when motorists must of necessity pay some heed to speed limits on one to distraction. It must be nerve wracking for senior citizens living here.

Healing. through prayer alone has numerous advantages. Mrs. Eddy writes in Science and Health (p. 143), ‘"The sick are more deplorably lost than the sinning, if the sick cannot rely on God for help and the sinning can." Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, writes in ""Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 142), ‘‘"Anciently the followers of Christ, or T ru t h , me asured Christianity by its power over sickness, sin, and death; but modern religions generally omit all but one of these powers,â€"the power over sin." The Apostles were superb healers. Their preaching and healing work went hand in hand and accounted for the large crowds that were attracted to them and for the rapid growth of the early Christian Church. and over, a bewildering number of times for those who later ‘attempted to record the events (see John 21:25). daily chore to pick up candy wrappers, paper bags and pop cans on our front lawn. 1 would _ suggest garbage containers be placed at several locations and it would help if parents would educate their children to use them.

Mr. Service suggested that if there is any doubt as to the authority of a school crossing guard they should be made auxiliary police officers. Mr. Service said the school crossing guards work at heavy traffic intersections and are always adults. The school boy patrols work on quiet residential streets adjacent to a school. North York Mayor James Service told Metro executive committee recently that there appears to be a lot of confusion in the minds of the public between school boy patrols andâ€" school crossing guards. ' Someone suggested that if the pageant was staged in Montreal perhaps a Metro Toronto girl would be selected. Mr. Service will hold further meetings with pageant representatives and report to Metro. Metro contributed $9,497 to the pageant for 1968 in the belief that it would be a one time donation. North York‘s Mayor James Service has been _ holding meetings with the pageant representatives with a view that the pageant would again be staged in North York. Metro Chairman William Allen reminded the mayor that last year‘s pageant winner was a Montreal girl. "I think our own budget for this sort of thing is exhausted," said Mr. Allen. North York is still negotiating its participation in the Miss Canada Pageant for 1969 and hoping Metro will make a contribution. © There may be some or no request for aid from Metro," he told Metro executive committee last week. City library officials claim that if the Metro board wins its position it will mean that at any time it may enter a local public library board and take whatever goods it considers necessary for its operations without any compensation. The Toronto board is taking the Metro library board to court demanding payment for goods taken after December 1967. What is involved is an interpretation of the Metro act. : The Metro board had until December 1967 to take any property belonging to a local library board without compensation. After that date the Metro board took $37,391â€" worth of books furniture and supplies from the city board without, compensation. ‘ Metro Library Board is involved in a test case with the city public library board which may well affect every library board in the Metro boroughs including Yorks and North York.
