Nelson snent Chorus : Gathering in the sheaves, gained through toil and tears, Gathering in the sheaves, reward of many years. Shall we be forgetting the long and weary days, When far away we wanCered from the path our fathers blazed? We have a noble lady, and she has a purpose true, She has taken up the challenge and she‘s working hard for you; These lines are written in honor of those who through years of tireâ€" efforts, have endeavored by word and pen, to place human needs above the desire for gain in the laws of our country,â€"chief among whom is our own lady M. P., Miss Agnes Macphail It should give her a great deal of satisfaction to see the Government adopting some of the things she has advocated for many years : We have a wealthy country, where the poor beg at the gate, Where the golden coins are ringing upon the rich man‘s plate. Ane we‘re reaping now a harvest, that no wise man deceives, For noxious weeds of greed and self, are tied up in the sheaves. There‘s another harvest growing acrd the fertile fields are green; Some weeds may still be showing, but the seed was pure anc clean. While Nature‘s God o‘er verdant fields, a wreath of glory weaves, The poor and humbled wistful wait, to garner in the sheaves.. And when the harvest ripens, though Lord‘s mon;y grieves, You‘ll see our lady coming in, bringing in the sheaves. She sows the seed of kindness, and she sows the seed of truth, sho has many true admirers ‘mong the aged and the youth ; And years of tireless energy, sincerely she has spent To raise our country‘s standard and allay the discontent. Kindred souls good seed have sown, by zealous word and pen, And it has taken root and grown within the minds of men: The yield will be a hundredâ€"folé, for truth never deceives, And we all will work together then, bringing in the sheaves. _ Young men come and strong men come, they‘re gathering on the plain; And ten thousand maidens fair, follow in their train. Older men with hearts astir, come rollirg up their sleeves, They see our lady in the field, gather ing in the sheaves. Youth and vigor fall in Hine and virile forces blend To usher in a new regime and senile systems end: To bring about a reigr of hope, with justice on the throne, And watch the old things pass away and let them go alone. Golden sheaves of thankfuiness and golden sheaves of love Will be reward of sacrifice with blessings from above: And rich will be the harvest, when, like withered Autumn leaves, The weeds of self will blow away,when gathering in the sheaves. ‘The sympathy of community is exâ€" 0/ DISCOUNT to motorists who have owned and operated a car 1 O/O for the past year without claims. 0/ DISCOUNT to motorists who have owned and operated a car 1 5/0 for the past two years without claims.

The Prime Minister was closely‘ questioned by the Committee as to the reason for the secrecy of this guarantee which was given four days after Parliament prorogued last year and ha¢ been discussed even before that. _ Mr Bennett said he had the power under the Relief Act to act in : this matter and that he did so.
