George S. Henry. Minister Goods Called for and Delivered Out of Town Orders Receive Prompt Attention A thousand dollars a mile LOVVEST PRICES Maintenance and repair of roads fall largely on the users of the roads. In justice they should fall most heavily on the trafc which does most damage to the roads. That damage will be lessened ifeach individ- ual truck owner and driver will suit his load and his speed to the conditions of the road, and keep well within the limits of the law. The Department requests the voluntary co-oper- ation of truck owners and drivers, but this does not affect in any way the enforcement of The Ontario Highways Act. Infractions will be penalized even more rigorously than before. Water lurks in the foundations of all roads at this season of the year and the surfaces of all gravel and macadam roads are porous and soft. When a road is asked to bear a load which is too heavy or driven at too great a speed the surface is broken and theevfoundation is churned up." Disintegration follows. Repair costs are often more than $1.000 a mile. DR. H. T. ARNALL, OFFICE AND fresidence corner of Toronto and `Elizabeth streets. (Opposite `Elizabeth St. Methodist Church.) Telephone 167.

We are not lei`-.t to do this building` by ourselves; Christ is with us, imparting` the strength we need for the task. We do not have to take for granted the Bible stories of Christ s rising'. The only real assurance comes from within ourselves, an assurance that we have talked wvith Him personally. Ater rising` Christ did not appear to every one, but only to those. who uuvuA\l : ihungered for Him, who sought His . pardon. To those only does he ap- pear to-day.

Christ, the First Fruits, was the subject taken by Rev. H. E. Wellwood in his morning sermon. The text was 1 Cor. 15-20, Now is Christ risen from the dead and be- come the first fruits of them that slept. The very fact of -the Resur- rection reveals that Christ is the Lord of Death. Life is the law of nature and deaath is a natural means to more life and fuller life. Easter is the most import.zmt fes- tival of the whole year, asserted .ev. W. J. Watt, who took the even- ing service, because to it we owe everything" else. Christ s birth would never have been thought of; His "teaching would never have been known; His crucixion would have been simply a date in the annals of Roman history. The whole question of immortality is brought in by Ch1'ist s rising` from the dead. The speaker showed that phiilosophy, science and nature all give p1'a.ctical assurance of this, though it is to the words of Christ particularly that we turn for assur- ance aml comfort.
