beyond the man and calls tie- in the greatness we can but feebly and surely cannot comprehend Hence doctrine of the the dead from announcement In the Scrip tures lias called for the strong est faith on part of believers and baa excited the general of unbelievers who seem to And it easier to believe anything else respecting the dead Undoubtedly this is the reason why o many wlio give evidence of accept the absurd theory that when a dog dies he la dead but when a man he is more alive than ever These properly claim to hope for everlasting life but not hav ing faith enough to believe in the Divine to perform the re surrection of the dead they are driven to the theory of Plato In deed who has not heard Plato quoted by ministers and other learned men when discussing the future life do not quote Jesus and the Apostles are all to the contrary proving that the dead are dead and the only hope of a future existence is a re surrection Note the answer of Jesus to the of His day who we are told specially answered That the dead are to be raised was shown to Moses at the burning hush when Gods message was 4 am God Thy fathers the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob Luke Acts Jesus commented that God would not declare Himself to he their God if they were dead in the absolute sense that brutes die We remember that St Pauls letters and sermons abound in reference to the dead We call to mind his great resurrection chap ter Cor in which he de clares thai as all in Adam die so all in Christ shall be made alive every man in his own order versus does not say that every man is alive but that shall be made alive in the re surrection The intermediate slate he declares is a sleep from which by Divine arrangement through Jesus they will all be awakened in the resurrection morning at and after the Second Coming of Christ We remind you afresh of his positive state ment that if there be no resurrec tion of the dead then all whom we have supposed have fallen asleep have perished Verses Hut able to raise all the dead is demon strated that He raised up Jesus from the dead on the Third Day and so likewise on he Third Day of a larger scale lie third thousand

Eilefen Arnold Kenneth Mount Cox teacher For the Era FIRST resurreotion of the dead seems to be the most difficult thing in the Bible for the worldly minded to grasp Faith This must be because the human mind instinctivolyrealies the majesty of the power and wisdom neces sary to the reproduction of Individuality which lived and thought centuries ago before passing into silence of the tomb The no

the day the worlds the last day the end of the present week of year Days in which sin and death have reigned ushering in the glorious Epoch when Gods will shall be done on earth as it is done in

Death hath no power they shall be priests unto God and unto and shall with Him a thousand years Revelation The sharers of this resurrec tion will not only receive ever lasting life hut more they will

school and the rural church inmany sections of the Province and in view of general scarc ity of farm labor throughout On tario which for some years past has caused grave concern to the farmers of the Province and con tributed to a material diminution in the agricultural production of the Province this House Is of the opinion that a nonpartisan Commission of practical men should be appointed to Inquire into the conditions of agricul tural and of rural life in the Pro vince and report to this House the facts with their recommenda tions as to the steps which can and should be taken to remedy or improve existing conditions Married Women The Government has declared against the extension of the Mu nicipal franchise to married wo men otherwise qualified In spite of the fact that the Bill of Mr- J Elliott Liberal member for West Middlesex embodied the same principle as that which was carried by such an enormous majority at the recent Toronto Municipal elections and which has been brought to the attention of the Government in petitions from a large number of Muni cipalities throughout the Pro vince the Conservative majority in the defeated the Bill If Mr Elliotts Bill had pass ed local option undoubtedly could have been carried in a number of additional municipalities where the vote now is closed The liquor interests are gener ally blamed for the defeat of this Bill The question is being ask ed How is it that the interests seem to coincide so often No Temperance Advance Bars are still to be open on Saturday afternoons and on holi days except Christmas Day The bill of McDonald Liberal member forCentral Bruce sup ported the Liberal party in the House to close the bars at Sat urday noon and on all legal holi days was turned down by the Government represented by Mr who also
