." "How we like to hear the ding-dong of the 61d schol bell!" This is the general sentiment if the parents, not the children. The holiday teen is over, and the kids are once more T k under the discipline and supervision for “e greater part of each day.

Leslie Frost, has backed the board in its findings by stating that ' id enforcement of the law and a raised ttttel of operation are the objectives of government.

They have handled a most diffi- t situation in Toronto in a strict adherance _ public opinion. It is understood that they e called upon to exercise a j udgment that " uired a consideration of large investments, werful interests, and enormous pressure of ition. They have dealt with each case h its merits and as a result 14 licenses were ttanted and 151 applications were turned School is thus looked upon as a breathing spell for the parents from the troublesome presence of the children. School is generally considered a disagreeable task by the chil- dren, yet school today is one of the greatest opportunities for parents, children and teach- ers. Here, with unity of purpose of all three parties, there are in the making the citizens that will give leadership in the future.

The tribute paid by him to the largest annual fair in the world was well-merited. Many were present who recalled the early days of the Ex with its wild west shows, its wooden grand- stand. its predominance of agricultural at- mosphere. They recall the difficulties of transportation in the early 90’s on the horse streetcars when it was impossible for the horses to pull the cars through the old King St. subway, and many were called upon to get out and help the car up the grade on their way from the Ex. Before the grounds were even opened for this year's Ex, the officials had spent over two million dollars in pre aration. This shows in dollars and cents sopéming of the magni- tude of the CNE whic draws exhibits and people trom the whole universe. Mr. Elwood Hughes, the general manager, certainly deserves the credit and praise that were bestowed upon him by the speaker at the opening of the 70th annual CNE. The citizens of Toronto, especially the older ones, look with pride at the growth and develop- ment of the Ex. It is indeed the pioneer of the great scientific, industrial and commer- cial development of Canada. It is a clearing- house and the stimulating factor for thous- ands who study the diversified presentations. Every phase of the Canadian life has found at the CNE a source of inspiration in the respective phases and interests of life. As they looked upon the magnificent presentation on Friday with its 60 millions of dollars worth of buildings, its 350 acres of beautiful, well-kept grounds owned by the citizens of Toronto, they noticed quite a change. One of the futures of the baek-to.gehool period should be I thorough .eep.e.ratioet be. tween teachers. parents end children.

Parents-tttrough the Home and School Clubs and other organizations co- operate and take interest in your schools. Teachers-assume responsibility and recog- nize the opportunity that lies within you in the moulding of children into citizens; Chil- dren - it may be irksome and distasteful, but learn to submit yourself to the discipline and try to assimilate all the teaching that has tte carefully prepared to develop you for the uture.

AT Captain and Mrs. Fred Bright- well and Sylvia of London, 0nt., were holiday visitors at the Mount Dennis Citadel last Sunday. Captain Fred, who as a boy ab. tended and later took charge of the Sunday School, conducted the evening meeting using as a text for his message the words of the prophet Isaiah "Incline your ear and come unto me; hear and your soul shall live." Enthusiastic singing was a special feature of the meeting accompanied by the Captain's concertina. A number of other visitors spoke of God’s goodness in their lives. The Band and Songsters also took part. Next Sunday’s meetings will be held at 11 and T p.m. with Captain Carter in charge. Studies in Revelation will be continued in the morning.

We shall have dif- ficulties for some weeks to drive close to the church but for excel- lent purposes. We welcome the im- provements and we shall surely not be daunted in our church at- tendance on this account. There are areas, great large areas, whole nations, where people are not free to worship as they wish. Let these difficulties sharpen our resolution to worship in the Church of Christ. Westminster United "Christ Jesus" was the subject of the Lesson Sermon which was read in all churches of Christ, Scientist, throughout the world, including Third Church of Christ, Scientist, 70 High Park Ave., Toronto, at 11 a.m., on Sunday, Aug. 28, 1949. The Golden Text was: "God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3: 16). 2: l, 2: "Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews, for we have Been his star in the east, and are come to worship him." Seledtions from the Bible in- eluded the following from Matthey Correlative citations from the Christian Science textbook, “Sci- ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, included the following from page vii: "The wakeful shepherd beholds the first faint morning beams, ere cometh the full radiance of a risen day.

Me Don't you parents ever think of how you would feel to have your child seriously injured or seeing his little life snuffed out like a candle just because you let him run all over the street? Or don't you think of the driver who might be at the wheel when the accident happened, and in most cases would be unable to prevent it? Most every house in Weston has a front yard, 21 back yard or both. Can't the child get as much plea- sure out of playing in the safety of a front or back yard as he can on the street? I know that I am only a business girl with no family to look after, and no house to keep, but I am one of a family of child- ren who were not allowed to tear around the streets. We played in our own yard and had just as much fun. It is a complaint from 1 young business girl aimed at certain parents in this town. These parents all have one fault in common, and it is carelessness with regard to their small offspring. lf some of them realized how serious I Inuit it is to let the little mites have the full run of the street, they would stop and think: Here I am with a little child whose life I am respon- Bible for, allowing him to run to and fro across the street un- checked. Our street is a busy one, cars and trucks travelling along almost as continuously as on the Main Street, and it is no uncom- mon sight to see such a vehicle coming along at a good clip, and just missing a child by inches. I think these parents in question would be well advised to give this matter serious thought. Remember you cannot replace a ehild's life as you could a piece of broken china. The Editor, Times and Guide, Weston, Ontario. Dear Sir: I would like to take the oppor- tunity that your paper so kindly provides, to let off some Imam about something that has been on my mind for some time. A Morning Prayer Let me today do something that will take A little sadness from the world's vast store And may I be so favored as to make Of joy', too scanty sum in little more. Let me not hurt, by any selfish dead Or thoughtless word, the heart of foe or friend; Nor would I pass, unseeing, worthy need, Or sin by silence when I should defend. Let me tonight look back across the span 'Twixt dawn and dark, and to, my conscience say- Because of some good act to beast or man-- "The world is better that I lived today." However meager be my worldly wealth, Let me give something that hall aid my kind-- A turd of courage, or a thought _ of health Dropped as I pass for troubled hearts to find. the night, and came where, in cradled obscurity, lay the Bethle- hem babe, the zhuman herald of Christ, Truth, who would make plain to benighted understanding the way of salvation through Ch in Jesus, till across a night of error should dawn the mnrning beams and shine the guiding star of being."
