ontario is experiencing the most dynamic growth in its history as a result the demands on he provincial treasury continue to grow at an unprecedented rale for example during the next five years we must build the equivalent of one thousand schools large enough for 500 pupils each this means lhat provincial grants to schools must be greatly increased in the years immediately ahead or municipalities will be faced with crippling mill rates to provide basic educational facilities hospitals highways and other public works must also be greatly expanded to meet the needs of our rapidly increasing population your province must increase its revenues by about 150 million annually to pay for these vital projects after considering every method available to the prov ince of raising money your representatives at queens park decided that our vast financial needs could not be met out of present sources of revenue it was agreed that the retail sales tax act was the fairest and most practi cal way for residents of ontario to contribute to the cost of their schools hospitals and other essential services before drawing up the ontario retail sales tax act your government closely studied

provinces have a tax rale as low as ontario collection of tax 1 hose who regularly sell goods as a normal part of their business must apply to be registered as vendors those who have applied are now

lioni 126 7 the lesson as a whole it is interesting to see how inconspicuous were the begin nings of some of the great apos tolic churches such as antiooh philippi and corinth these cor porate testimonies usually had their roots in lie conversion of a few individuals and their gathering together unto christ as lord and center- it was customary for the mis sionaries lo make their first contacts in the synagogues as the godfearing lews assembled to pray and to hear the old testament scriptures it was here that the messianic hope was held and thus a splendid readymade foundation was found for tite presentation of the gospel witness one feature of ihe synogogue service was that there was an opportunity for a visitor- to address the congre gation if he felt he had a help ful message this was the ap proach at corinth tire heart of the lesson aquila and priscilla undoubt edly learned much christian truth from the lips of paul as they worked together on the sabbath they attended the local synogogue where paul found fresh opportunities for giving a fervent witness for the lord jesus christ several converts were won and baptized the work grew and when satanic opposition broke out aquila and priscilla hazarded their very lives for the sal- of paul and for the truth they had learned through him the possession of truth is a i stewardship and it is given to he exemplified in the life more over he who knows the truth is responsible to teach it to others when apollos a gifted teach- or therefore came into contact witir aquila and priscilla his grasp of
