Don‘t ask questions or give adâ€" vice. If he wants to taik about himself, listen and understand, Don‘t mention his disfigurement ‘unless he does, but don‘t try to pretend it doesn‘t exist. Of course s are lame, Joeâ€"so what? Once f wounded man faces the fact he‘s w one leg or must a aid, the whole In these hectic days one often wonders what it is that makes the community paper so much of an attraction and why, in so many eases, it is read so thoroughly from end to end. It is not hard to exâ€" plain the success of any community paper. The reason is very simple. Your city daily is so crowded with big items of world doings that it has no space to devote to any small news items that are so interesting to the community and rural dwelâ€" let. The small, and apparently, trifâ€" ling, items which appear in the home town paper are just what makes it such interesting reading. No item is too large nor none too small for a local paper but it is the small ones that the people look for. That is why the home town paper is always so much appreciated by those away from home as well as those at home and that is why adâ€" vertising in the home town paper produces results. It is read from beginning to end to make sure pothing of local interest is missed. There is every reason why you should subscribe to your home paper and if you have anything to advertise put it in our home town paper. It is invariably read. WHAT‘S SO COMPELLING IN THE "HOMEâ€"TOWN" PAPER In this month‘s memorandum to plant executives issued by the Inâ€" dustrial Accident Prevention Assoâ€" ciations, there is an article dealâ€" ing with vocational training for exâ€"service men. The information is from W. S. Woods, Department of Pensions and National Health, and says, in part: "Since the only guarantee of intimate preference in employment for a veteran is a permanent skill, Canada‘s program for demobilized men emphasizes epportunities for vocational trainâ€" ing. Every discharged man with the inclination and aptitude, every man who by a training course can be assisted in obtaining a job or a better job, is eligible for training. Courses may be given in technical schools or in the most direct and practical way, in the factory or shop. The government pays the eosts of training and provides subâ€" sistance for the man and his family. YOCATIONAL TRAINING The wise ones are saying that the home front won‘t really know it‘s in a war until the boys start to eome back, sufferingâ€"as many of them will beâ€"the disfigurements and disabilities of war. REHABILITATE THE SPIRIT We‘ve been thinking long and deep about the problem. Modern military medicine will have done wonders to rehabilitate men, we‘re toldâ€"to restore injured muscles and tissues and to replace missing limbs. But only weâ€"atâ€"homeâ€" families, employers, friends â€"can provide the sympathy and intelliâ€" gence needed to complete their psychological adjustment, to enâ€" able them to live useful, happy lives. Here‘s what we must do. Bc @amreful, remember that a maimed man is the same man he always was. He may look different or show an unaccustomed moodiness, but Johnny without a leg is still essentially Johnny. Treat him as a normal man. That‘s especially true in the case of nervous or menâ€" tal disabilities. A "shellâ€"shocked" man is neither a child nor a fool. Don‘t patronize him any more than you would taik down to a man with a bad cold. He‘s just sick, and he can probably be cured. Learn to look at a disfiguring wound without squeamishness. Don‘t stare, but don‘t elaborately avoid it,\either. Face it and forget Don‘t gush over the injured man. Excessive praise or . solicitude shows that you regard him as difâ€" ferent from other people. Don‘t be disgustingly cheerful. He‘s old enough to know that wound is no cause for elation, and he‘s got a right to be depressed if he wants to. He‘ll snap out of it eventually, but it‘s an offense to his dignity to foree him into a pattern of to foree him i lfléd.l gaiety. it. _ â€"â€" TIMES & GUIDE Sam Wilson, Publishes Office: 3 Main Street South Printed at Charters Publishing Co., Ltd., Brampton, On THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1943 PLANESâ€"WHAT A CREATIONâ€"INYVENTION He‘ll be good for something, right enough. Among other things, he‘ll be good for you; for in helpâ€" ing him to rebuild his spirit, you‘ll be adding a good, broad chunk of manliness to your own.â€"Ediphone Voice Writing. With planes passing overhead many times almost every day and the press filled with reports of the exploits of the RA,F. and RC.A.F,, it is difficult for many peophe, especially younger folks, to believe that only forty years ago "flying machines" and aviaâ€" tion were a dream. A few days ago Orville Wright, who is now 72, told newspapermen how he and his brother made the first power plane flight at Kitty Hawk on December 17, 1903. "At that time," he said, "we were thinking only of being able to fly and not of the practical uses of aviation at all. It was not until our experiments during the followâ€" ing summer of 1904 that we began to see the military and commercial possibilities of planes." They ofâ€" fered their invention to the United States War Department in Januâ€" ary, 1905, but those in charge did not evince the slightest interest in "the contraption." You shouldn‘t rush about doing things for an injured man; it‘s better to let him do things for you. That makes him feel he‘s still pulling his own weight in the boat. Learn about the achieveâ€" ments of other people with his type of disability, and tell him about them when he asks you, "Will I ever be good for anyâ€" thing ?" thing will seem less important to him. Asked whether their greatest moment of elation had been when the plane left the ground on that memorable first flight in ©1903, Orville Wright surprisingly said "No". They had felt certain of success. He had his greatest "kick" when lying in bed thinking how exciting it would be to fly. The tiny tank on that first plane measured a foot long by three inches in diameter and contained only half a gallon of gasoline. But that was sufficient for the first experiment. It was enough to carry them eight or ten miles, which was farther than they had intended going. They were not interested in distâ€" ances just then. But they knew it would be a record if they were lifted"into the air at all, because no one had ever before accomplishâ€" ed this with a power machine. They just wanted to demonstrate that their plane would fly. It would indeed have been easier for them to have built a more powerâ€" ful machine of greater speed. But they wanted to fly at low speed to give greater ease and safety in landing. There are three basic factors in our social life that needs rebuildâ€" ing, support and financing. First, the home; second, the school; third, the church. Those who would deal successfully with juvenile delinâ€" quency must make this their startâ€" ing point. The home must be made a place of wholesome influence with a proper environment that will promote the highest type of citizenship, also a recognition of Orville Wright is not one of those whoenvision postâ€"war aviaâ€" tion supplanting railways, ships and motor trucks right away. Use of planes will, of course, increase, but it may be some time before they can carry freight as cheaply as trains, ships and trucks. Juvenile delinquency is today a term that.is being used as a great talking and writing phrase. This has been brought to public attenâ€" tion by the great increase in juvâ€" enile crime and the general diffiâ€" culties arising in the handling of youth problems. The facts are self evident and demand more than talk or writing. Action and well prepared plans to meet the situaâ€" tion are required. Those trained in the work should be heard and the necessary equipment and money to carry on the work supâ€" plied. Our failure to supply the necessary leadership and money during the depression years were disastrous. It was said the money could not be found. The money and much more has been found to meet the war requirements. THE CHURCH NEEDS YOU YOU NEED THE CHURCH _ It takes thousands, perhaps milâ€" lions of years to bring about a change in the human race, but changes in human occupations come quickly. It is only within the last half century that the great majorâ€" ity of mankind has been foreed to earn a living by close concentraâ€" tion on work held within a few inches from the eyes. When a normal person looks at an object close to the face, two simultaneous events take place; one, the act of accomodation by which the eyes adjust their focus for the near object; the other, the act of convergence by which the eyes are turned toward each other so that both are directed at the object at the same time. The Indians and Ancients never had to worry about these as their existâ€" ence depended upon their distant vision. Excessive close work tends to upset the normal relation beâ€" tween accommodation and converâ€" gence. T!\is‘dis.turba‘nce ‘ig caus'ing EN ht oo og e adoc aslll a great deal of ocular discomfort today. We have all read many storâ€" ies reflrding the early Inâ€" dians _ and of their keen visâ€" ion. In order to survive, the Inâ€" dian had to be wble to see clearâ€" ly and quickly both his enemâ€" ies, and the aniâ€" mals required for food. Even beâ€" fore the Indians the men of the stone age doubtlessly had distant vision that no man today can equal. These men, who lived long before a telescope was invented have reâ€" corded a knowledge of the stars that is amazing to modern astronoâ€" mers. It seems impossible today for any man to know the stars the way the ancients knew them withâ€" out the aid of powerful telescopes. We are forced to a conclusion that these people must have«seen farâ€" ther and more clearly than any modern man. â€" Eo es on e eeeeine es c h I can assure you that the quilts which you have made so beautiâ€" fully will be given to some indiviâ€" dual who will derive much comfort from them.

Dear Madam: _ _ Your gift of the very charming patchwork quilts which you have made has reached the workers of this clothing store. From here many consignments of goods given so generously by our kinsmen overâ€" seas are distributed to many places in the West of England which have suffered from air raids or have reâ€" ceived those people evacuated from dangerous places to sufetsi. , We are most grateful for all the help which comes from Canada, which is of such enormous value in supplying all kinds of goods of which there is a shortage here. With many thanks and all good wishes that you may long be able to work so usefully. I am, Yours Sincerely, Mrs. Ruth Eichholz. AC 2 E. Mortimer, No. 1836582, Block 36, Room 4, R.A.F. Station Little Rissington, Gloucestershire, England. Dear Mrs. Hainge: â€" You will, I have no doubt, be surprised to receive this letter and wonder who the sender is. I will first rest your mind by stating the purpose of my writing to you. A week ago I was on leave and stayed with a neighbourly couple who received a bed cover, which was made of pieces of tloth and were then sewn into the article mentioned, which bore your tag. Well, madam, the lady was so imâ€" pressed by a magnificent piece of work from a lady of your age that she asked me to drop a line and pass on best wishes and thanks. Maybe you wonder why the lady concerned didn‘t write to you perâ€" sonally. Well, Madam, her writing is not what she would like you to receive. As you see by the address, I am in the R.A.F. as a flight mechanic (E), and we have great friendships with the sons of your country servâ€" ing over here, and I must honestly say, they are great chaps, and we haven‘t yet found others to equal them. Wishing you the best of luck, Yours Sincerely, E. Mortimer. true values‘ in life. _ The school must inculcate into the minds of all a right ideal of life and its great objective. Teach all to work and earn their own living. Place before their minds the truth, that all must respect the rights of the other person to live.

HAWE The congregational social on Friâ€" day evening was a real success and in spite of the prevalence of colds which kept many home, a fine turnâ€"out enjoyed the good time proâ€" vided by the Women‘s Association. A social evening now and then is relished by the wisest men, _ raivn on . Wc t oi tan On Sunday afternoon a group of our men went their way on the anâ€" nual visitation of members‘ homes. Again colds prevented some from going, so few of the visitors were able to go in pairs as planned and perhaps some homes were missed. Clarke Wardlaw would appreciate hearing from anywhere that was the case. c s : The annual Christmas sale unâ€" dertaken by the Women‘s Guild of St. Matthias church will be held in the Sunday school rooms of the church on â€" Saturday â€" afternoon next, Dec. 4, at 3 p.m. Atticles suitable for Christmas presents and home baking will be on sale, and also some rummage. Tea will be served during the afternoon. The ladies will welcome a visit from you. Westminster United Service\ will be held at Malâ€" ton this week at 3 fl.m., by the rector. Mr. M.

Young &eople from nine years on are eligible to join, and will be welcomed by Mr, Tucker, the talented organist at St. Philip‘s. We look for the wholehearted support of the rar- ents in this: venture and shall be glnd to try out the voices of any ther ‘young people who would care to join. The last two Sunday evening services, shared with the Presbyâ€" terian and Central Churches, have been thoroughly enjoyed and bear witness to the fine spirit of fellowâ€" ship among us. We hope to have a return visit for our Anniversary in March. In the meantime, we reâ€" sume our "Evening Hour" in Westâ€" minster. With Christmas so close, our theme will naturally be the coming of "The Desire of All Naâ€" tions". The choir, which is workâ€" ing hard on its special Christmas music, may lead us in that ancient plainâ€"song prayer, "Veni Emmanâ€" uel"â€""O Come Emmanuel". We would like to see there not only many who are at the family serâ€" vice in the morning, but those who are not free to go at that time. There are many such, and they will be welcome. ; Service and Sunday school will be held as usual next Sunday at St, Philip‘s, Considerable interest is being shown in the newly formâ€" St. Philip‘s Last Sunday‘s services afforded deep soul satisfying experiences of fellowship and inspiration for the many members: and friends who worshipped with us. One could feel how the ancient people of God felt when they prepared themselves to worship their God. David said: "I was glad when they | said unto me, Let us go into the | house of the Lord." It was a day upon which we shall look back upâ€" on with pleasure and satisfaction. In the morning the Junior Choir sang very effectively: "Seeking Him", a beautiful prayerâ€"hymn set to the tune of the negro spiritual "Going â€" Home". Itâ€" was OUt privilege to have with us _ Mr. Lorne Dorsch of the Toronto Bible College, who is to be student pasâ€" tor at our mission at Thistletown. Mr. Dorsch read the Scripture Lesson and led us in prayer. The sermon â€" entitled "A Measureless Supply", was based upon the inciâ€" ‘dent recorded in the 50th chapter of Genesis, where Joseph‘s brethâ€" ren appealed to him in fear and trembling, saying: "He will cerâ€" tainly requite us for all the evil we have done unto him." His reâ€" sponse was "Fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones." It was a time of famine, but Joseph had prepared for it, and had a measureless supply of grain on hand. Just so may we come to our Heavenly Father in time of trouble, and may partake of His measureless supoly of grace as He forgives and comforts us. Weston Baptist | CHURCHES | a e e n t In the evening the ordinance of baptism was administered when one of our boys made a public conâ€" fession of his faith in the saving and keeping power of the Lord and Master Jesus Christ. The Adult choir sang during the evening serâ€" vice a beautiful anthem which proâ€" claimed the gufficiency of God‘s grace for all the experiences of life. It was entitled: "Sunshine and Shadow." The sermon was entitled "A New Testament Mediâ€" ator,." Mr. Eikenaar referred to the three appearances of our Lord and Saviour, which are mentioned in scripture and basgd his text on the passage found in Hebrews 9: 24â€"28. There was first of all His appearance in the past; when He came "to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself." Then there is His appearance in the present; where He is now, to appear in the proserfte of God for us, as our High Priest and Intercessor. Then finally His appearance, still to come in the future, when He shall appear the "second time apart from sin unto salvation." His first appearance almost two thousand years ago was only like a parenâ€" thesis in His eternal existence. PHONE 1000 TIMES AND GUIDE A brief Fireside Hour, sponsorâ€" ed by the young people, brought a happy day to a close. You are most cordially invited to meet with us next Sunday when the ordiâ€" nance of the Lord‘s Supper will be observed and new members reâ€" seiced into our fellowship. During the week preceding last Sunday‘s Anniversary Services, the families of Central Church each reâ€" ceived a call to coâ€"operate in makâ€" ing the day notable as an outward evidence of their inner faith and loyalty. It is estimated that about nine hundred people attended the services to celebrate the reâ€"openâ€" ing of the church which was reâ€" dedicste;(\i. in November, 1938. Central United Rev.
