There is little historic significance about the actual dates we use now. The first originally honored the birth of Queen Vicâ€" toriaâ€"â€"who died almost half a century agoâ€" but has since been largely changed to Empire Day. While the BNA Act did come into force on July 1, that date does not coincide with the culminatien of confederation which is the real event the holiday is intended to honor. Even our major religious holidays, since the reform of the calendar in the 18th century, no longer cointide with the original dates. o‘gmou some time in the future, when the . for permanent peace looks a little more promising, we decide to set aside a date for pommemorating the end of war. Which would we choose? The old Armistice Day on November 11 VE Day in May or VJ Day in Augast? The sensible thing would be to selectâ€"a different date entirely, tie it definiteâ€" ly to peace or the end of war and fix it for the nearest Monday in each year. ‘ ‘Aside from the very considerable dislocaâ€" tionâ€"for industry and business when a naâ€" tiorial holiday falls in the middle of the week, thetée is a most important human factor. Added to the weekâ€"end the extra day gives a real break and a chance to get away from routine, to the average worker and his family. Coming in the middle of the week it is merely m day when one stays around home rather than foin}g to the office or plant.â€"â€"The Financial Post.

When these controls were on and the subsidies paid, he called for their removal. Man is inconsistant. The one great price conâ€" trol of the day, is not to stop buying but to buy with more economy. Up to the present timeâ€"there has been a luxurious living. The rise of a few cents has been made a question. A look in the garbage tins would reveal the great waste that has been going on.

Foods are wasted, therefore, it would séeén the one way to defeat the higher costs, is for every individual to study carefully the expenditure of the weekly allowance. Do not buy a roast of meat of 4 or 5 lbs. or 10 Jbs. and throw a couple of lbs. of it in the garâ€" bage. Do not buy excessively, see that every particle of food purchased is used. This will cut down the consumption of stock that‘is now avaliable and will make those who are respansible for meeting the demands realize that the demand is not so great. Therefore, theprices will have to become competitive. Thus all subsidies and controls will not have to be imposed but rather careful economical buying will result in adjustment of prices gradually.

It needs tending and cutting to hold its beauty. Yet, somehow, banks of crimson, and cherry red and white persist in a few of those forgotten gardens. The grass grows tall and rank, the steeple bush encroaches, even the stones from the wall may have tumbled into the bed. But there persist the strong colors. One wonders if the cows have cropped it at a proper time or if some passerby came, year after year, to cut choice heads. ‘"Whether we like it or not, comics are here to stay," the Courier says. "Their apâ€" peal is great for childrem as well as adults. It would seem advisable under these cireumâ€" stances, not to attempt to ban comic books, but wather to encourage the production of a better type." A FLAME IN THE GARDEN Phlox means "flame" in the original Greek and it is flaming now in gardens all over London and district. Perhaps it is because the season is slow this year, but the phlox seems more than usually brilliant. It flames in many doorâ€"yards. TELEPHONE COURTESY Wait a minute! Here is a little telephone courtesy tip, which should be adopted by many ‘people. Several housewives have voiced complaints over the impatience of teleâ€" phone users in awaiting calls to be answered.

EDITORIAL BRIEFS * ‘There is no middle road in moral standards. You live for the highest, or you don‘t. It is the continual drop, drop that wears away the rock. It is the continual presentaâ€" tion of acts of brutality, druelty, extraordinâ€" ary cireumstances and hair raising, thrilling situations that penetrate and remain in the brain of the child today. This is the direct effect of the comic books and crime books that are being circulated across this whole continent. The scenes thus presented and the language which accompanies these pictures are focussed directly in the mind of the reader, and when given an opportunity or the slightest provocation are put into execution. This is no idle fancy. During the past week there has been evidence of this presented in our courts. One has but to read the reports in the daily papers to realize the truth of these words. Attention is being drawn to the detrimental effects of these works and a genâ€" eral denunciation across the whole continent is moved. It is nécessary, in order to keep this move going forward that every parent, every educationalist and our church leaderâ€" ship should all combine and see that the comic books and crime books are carefully supervised, censored and so improved, that instead of wrecking home life, presenting brutality and crime, they present those things that are so essential to Christian livâ€" ing, with scenes of love and true brotherâ€" hood amplified. If this is done, then the mind of the child, who is the future leader of our people, will be filled with high elevating thoughts. Every force that can be bent toâ€" wards this end should be encouraged. Here is an important comment: The Educational Courier, official organ of the Ontario Public School Men Teachers‘ federation and the Federation of Women Teachers‘ associaQo(us of Ontario, reveals in an editorial how the teachers feel about comic books. ; But the brightest flame of all is beside old stone walls and clapboards weathered grey through generations of time. On back roads, too, where there is the occasional old house standing with vacant windows and sagging roof, you find such phlox, where vanished hands once tended herbs and flowers between more yrgent household tasks. _ 8 However it happened there stands the phlox aflame with beauty as in years gone by. There it is, persistent monument to one who could sing at her work, just seeing the phlox in the dooryard, aflame as August lingered. Build on what unifes. Then we can unite to build.

Estimates Free to the Ezekiel 18: 23: "Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord God: and not that he should return from his way and live." l Many people today would try to lead one to believe that God is a God of Love, and would not sent anyone to such a place as hell. Although God is a God of Love, He also is a God of Justice, and justice demands that sin shall be paid for. Ezekiel 18: 20: "The soul that sinneth it shall die." Anyone who drives a car has at sometime or other met another driver who failed to dim his lights at night.

On Sunday morning Pastor D. A. Whitelaw addressed the Grandâ€" view worshippers from the text of Philippians 2: 14â€"16. Very clearly does the text reveal ‘who we are‘ â€"children of God through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ: ‘where we are‘ in the midst of a crooked and Ferverse generation: ‘what we are‘ ights in the world: and ‘what we are to do‘ hold forth the Word of Life. These words were of chalâ€" ]el?ge to both saint and sinner alike. If we were to meet the demands of God‘s justice we would have to pay the debt of our sin with our own lives. God does not take any pleasure in the death of the wicked; therefore He made a way whereby our debt might be paid, and we Keeping It Rich Medical men know that many healthâ€"giving foods we eat reguâ€" larly do us leas good than they mixit because they are improperly prepared for the table. In Canada a traditional method of preparing potatoes, for instance, is to boil and mash them. This process destroys about half the valuable vitamin C in them. Baked in their jnckets they retain almost all of this element so vital in keeping the body‘s tissues healthy. At the Bible Sehool at 10 a.m. fortyâ€"three gathered to hear Miss Esther Purdy present a visualized Bible story and sing a lovely gosâ€" pel hymn. Mrs. Bennett was guest soloist at the morning service singing the hymn "All Is Changed When Jesus Comes To Stay." A time of rich spiritual blessing and fellowship is alwa{s enjoyed at Grandview Baptist Tabernacle, 195 Downsview avenue just west of Ridge avenue, one block south of Wilson avenue. On Sunday evening a happy group of teenâ€"age young Bpeogle journeyed to Fairbank aptist Church and there took part in the evening gospel service. A lovely hymn entitled, "Beneath the Cross of Jesus" was sung in threeâ€"part harmony by , Misses Mary and Mariaret Tanton and Margaret Jacobs. ‘"Trust and Obey, For There‘s No Other Way" was the other hymn rendered by these sweet singers.

Mary lived by the command that she gave to the wine steward, "Whatsoever he saith unto Iou, do it." The minister concluded his sermon with the irg’unetion that if we today, like nay, lived by Christ‘s teachings, and surrendered ourselves to these temhlnis and to Jesus, our lives would have a greater fruitfulness and freedom. Harding Ave. United On Sunday, August 22, Mr. N. W. Hincks preached a sermon on "Mary, the Mother of Christ." Although the scriptures tell us very little about this greéat woman, a comprehensive picture of her character was revealed in the sermon. As the story of her life was unfolded, the congregation was given a new vision of Christ. Mr. Hincks chose as his text the words which Mary gave to the wine steward at the feast in Cana of Galilée, "Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it." Mary had learned, after much suffering, that to lean and depend on Jesus, her Son, meant the greater happiness. Although she suffered on numerous occasions because of Jesus‘ stand for a new kingdom on earth, she always reâ€" mained loyal to Him. â€" could be set free.: God sent His own Stoen dinto the world to die in our stead. « Isaiah 53: 6: "All are like sheep have gone astray; we have returned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on Him (Jesus) the Correlative citations from the Christian â€" Science _ textbook, "Bcience and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, included the following from pafes 275 and, 284: "The starting %ont of divine Science is that od, Spirit, is Allâ€"inâ€"all, and that there is no other might or Mindâ€" that God is Love, and therefore He is divine Princiil‘e.
