The problem of: sufâ€" fering reaches its acute form when the wicked escape sufferâ€" ing and the innocent suffer, esâ€" "â€"A few years ago, traffic authorities in many Metropolitan Toronto municipalities . were looking forward to the completion of Highway 401 as the answer to many of their traffic problems. In the west, Etobicoke, Weston and North York particularly were anxiously anâ€" ticipating the use of the "Toronto Byâ€"Pass" by through traffic in the area. _â€"â€"EDITORIALS SUBSCRIPTION RATES: $3.00 per year in advance to any address in Canada. $3.50 per year in advance to United States. Single copies 5¢ Member of the Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association Now that the Highway 401 has all but been completed, there is plenty of evidence to supâ€" port the fact that the highway is well used. Last Friday evening‘s rush hour traffic on local thoroughfares was slowed to a crawl because minor accidents and slippery roads bottled up traffic on "401" especially between Dufferin and Islington Avenues, This showed how much local traffic is depending upon the "Byâ€"Pass" to get it where it is going. And when the highway is comâ€" pletely opened in the east end of Toronto, then an increase in real "through traffic‘ will follow. The highway is, in fact, jammed, but so are local thorou;fi!w Published . by V. S.

The Sacrament of Baptism takes place at the 11.30 a.m. Metro is stepping in, to try to cope with the problem by widening existing roads, and this will definitely help the situation when completed. Etobicoke is said to be embarking on a fourâ€"year roadâ€"building programme which would have been better started four years ago. But the high patronage of Highway 401 shows the motorists favour the limited access road as a practical, speedy, and\ safe route. The extension of the Barrie Highway south into the middle of the city as another.limited access road would provide one of the best answers yet to the beleaguered motorists. way. Another prime factor is the sad lack of sufficient traffic arteries, Even if the present roads were in passable condition, they would not answer the deplorable traffic mess.

Often there is a‘tendancy to fail in the appreciation of the services given because they are not used. Riding on the trolley bus to the Keele and Dundas centre was a treat as one recalled.the old days of the half hour service and the dilapidated line. It was a long tiresome ride and wait on the switches for the down or up car. It was a cold ride in the winter months and when the weather was raw. Now the service is so much better and the buses are more comfortable. Yes, some people still protest but the facts are driven home that it is a cheap charge for the service so well given. _The Coâ€"Weds Club invite allipies the pulpit as a servant of I;"at”’mkd (‘r(;uples' mbemt:“id St. God, for His congtelultion.

Then riding on the fine streamlined street cars recalled the old days of the one horse street cars holding about 10 people, with the driver seated at the front of the car. When the kids jumped on back for a free ride, it was necessary for the driver to stop the car and get them off. Then the two horse cars when overloaded during rush times would often have to stop and let the passengers get off and take the grade. These were days of early transportation. 5 Now look at the wonderful complete line of transportation, buses. coaches, street cars and subway trains, all built from the simple, oneâ€"horse‘car system. It is a romance that the citizens of this great Metro can look upon with pride. As you travel around and see the transportation systems in action in other centres then you can appreciate more than ever the values and services of the TTC.

Last Lord‘s day the message of the morning service gave some teaching on the matter of Prayer. This comâ€" ing Lord‘s Day a prayer and desire of the Apostle Paul will be considered.

Our Bible School had an all time high in attendance last Lord‘s Day resulting from the contest which is now in proâ€" gress. 184 boys and girls, men and women were in attendâ€" ance. The Reds gained 36 points, putting the Blues 26 points behind the Reds. The toâ€" tal count now is Reds â€" 550; and the Blues â€" 524. The Blues are blue. The message of the evening will deal with two men of opâ€" posite social standings. The Lord Jesus was no respector of persons as we will see in the dealings with ‘these two men. One was poor, ragged and blind; the other was rich, but not too honest. Jesus has his own way of dealing with each of us, but notice how He deals with these men in Luke chapters 8 and 9. CH. 1â€"1641 Our first Loyalty Dinner, which will be held at the Crang Plaza on Sunday evenâ€" ing next, March 18th, will be the high spot of the canvass as it will give all our members and friends the chance to gathâ€" er together and have a good meal and hear the committee discuss the plans we have for the immediate future of our church. Children between the ages of 12 and 5 will be enterâ€" tained to a film show at the church â€"â€" complete with box lunches etc. â€" and babies will be provided with baby sitters, although the committee feel that most parents would rather make their own arrangements for their babies.

The meetings are held after the evening service at St. John‘s Anglican Church at Main near Church st.

I am confident that if we all pull together, we will accomplish the task to which we have set our hands, and that our children, when they grow up, will be able to say with pride, "See, This Our Fathers Built For Us"."
