In 12 months Canada has laid the foundation for a great air force, expanded the navy as never before, recruited four divisions of troops and despatched two of them overâ€" seas.

"A child whose lessons are inâ€" torrupted after he has begun to learn to play and sing will have more trouble in picking up lost threads in music than in most other subjects: music calls for a coâ€"ordinâ€" ation of faculties more exacting than most subjects and every year lost means a serious sethark In Discussing the question of music lessons in war time, Sir Ernest MacMillan, principal of the Toronta Conservatory of Music, recently had this to say: "In this war to preâ€" serve civilization, when everything we have been taught to value is at stake, no sacrifice is too great to ensure a victory. The war is being fought so that our children will live in a better world. It would be a tragedy if we, in defending the civilization we treasure, failed to hand on the torch to those who follow after us. Every essential side of our children‘s education must be preserved at all costs.

Two Paths of Life The father here informs his son concerning the two paths of life and which one to follow; Prov. 4: 10. Rewards of Wisdom Four inevitable blessings are promised in this chapter to those who truly and consistently embrace such wisdom in their own life, and let it instruct them in all that they plan and undertake: 1, Wisdom will keep such a person from trembling; 2, Wisdom will make such a man‘s iife balanced and sane and healthyâ€"whatever he unâ€" dertakes will succeed; 3, wisdom will bring honor from his fellow citizens to such a man; 4, finally, such a man, as he goes on in years, will find his whole life beautified and adorned with a character of strength, a character tried and testâ€" of true character amrifiraigious faith. In this lesson we havo a remarkâ€" able illustration of the infinitely surpassing value of parental inâ€" struction, especially in the matters our knowledge of t!iéxilTo al account. The emphasis throughout the opâ€" ening section of this chapter, as inâ€" deed throughout the entire book of Proverbs, is on the priceloss value and infinite importance of wisdom. Wisdom has been defined: "In all the complex relations of human life and conduct, to know and do God‘s will." Wisdom is to understand, so far as it is perâ€" mitted to man‘s finite intelligence, the manifold adaptation and harâ€" mony, the beauty and utility, of God‘s works and ways, and to turn __â€"~Z J heart with all diligence; For out of it are the issues of life.

Sprouting had startâ€" ed in every county in the two Agricultural _ officials were hopeful that enough grain was to be harvested in Western and Southern Ontario to supply feed for stock, but were not betting on it. They definitely feared that the sections would not be able to produce seed grain for next spring. Potatoes throughout these entire districts were being atâ€" tacked by blight, and, it were esâ€" timated, scores of fields would be a total loss. Carleton, for example, reportâ€" ed "splendid harvesting weather." Frontenac reported "80 per cent of the threshing is. completed," while in Leeds "milk production is falling somewhat due to dryâ€" ing of pastures." Prince Edward reported "rain is badly needed." In Northumberland, more than 90 per cent of spring grain crops had been harvested. ENOUGH FEED FOR STOCK? Western and Southern Ontario, waterâ€"soaked and with less than half of its spring grain crop garâ€" nered the first week end in Sepâ€" tember, showed marked contrast with the counties in Central and Eastern sections of the Province, according to the weekly crop reâ€" port issued by the Department of Agriculture. The Province‘s Grain Harvest This situation was reported to the Agricultural Supplies Board, at the conference with representatives of Provincial Departments of Agriâ€" culture, held in Ottawa, July 18 to 20. It was agreed at that.time that as an insurance against possible shortage in 1942 the production of seeds in Canada from approved seed stocks of these crops of cerâ€" tain definite quantities under a joint plan between Provincial Departâ€" ments of Agriculture and the Board should be undertaken. Careful investigation . of seed stocks on hand, seed imports and exports and contracts for delivery in 1941 and 1942 indicate a probâ€" able shortage in 1942 of certain biâ€" ennial field roots and vegetable crops including Mangel, Swede, Garâ€" den Beet, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Parsnips and alsoâ€"two annual crops Radish and Spinach, DUTCH SUPPLIES CUT OFF Respective seed shortages from these crops are due to the cutting off of supplies from Holland and Denmark and to uncertainty as to quantities that may be imported from Great Britain. The Seed Supply Committee of the Agricultural Supplies Board, which was formed after the outâ€" break of war last September, has been following closely Canadian seed supplies of cereals, fibro flax, forage crops, field roots and gardon vegetable seeds. For the seed. seaâ€" son of 1940 normal seed supplies were found available and the prosâ€" pects for 1941 seed supplies now are favourable. week, A Seed Shortage Coming In 1942?
