They write: The lookrlng glass has a very distinct edu'cationa.l value and `the more careless the home the more proobaible it is that a looking glass, if one is around at all, will only be a. few inches square. The consequence is that children who are frequently reprimanded for their untidiness and dirtiness, scarce- ly see themselves and so lose the strong personal incentive to im- provement which they might gain if they had an opportunity of con- trasting their own untidy appear- ance with the neatness of many of their school fellows. u-:w years ago placeu we sea. 110115 In Lake Srimcoe.

The sunprise has to deal with clause A., section 395, of the Mun- icipal Act, which provides for grant- ing of money as gifts or loans to industries by niunicipalities. Under the Municipal Amendment Act of 1922, this clause has been repealed. The Act was passed on May 18 and received royal assent of the Lieuten- ant-Governor the following day.

When the Bolsheviks took control of Russia the Bible was immediately barred. They even attempted to go farther than that and started out to abol- ish God from the country also. Their opposition to the distribution of the Bible proves merely that the Soviet leadens possess "some of the spirit of the world." They do not want God and of course they could not be expected to admit His Book. Possilbly some one told them that there is a covmunandment in the Book which declares Thou shalt not kill. Such a Boo-k would de- stroy Sovietism, because it says al- so "Thou shalt not steal." Killing and stealing has almost become a national sport in Russia. It the people got the idea into their heads that robbery and murder should not be indulged in too freely, Lenin and Trotsky would have to look for other jobs. Either autrocra.oy, cuelty and crime, or the Bible had to be abolished. Some day the Bible will get into Russia and will be the means of restoring order and tranquility in that land of dark shadows.
