EDITORIAL PORT PERRY STA "Buch is the patriot's boast where'er we roam, His first, best country ever is at home" FORGIVENESS An person who has lived in a small community must have learned how bitter can become the feelings of those who consider themselves wronged by some member of that community. Of course it is quite possible that no wrong was in- tended. But the results have often been dis- asterous to the peace of the community, especial- ly to the individual directly concerned. The person who feels that he has been injured is the one that suffers. If his sufferings turn to hate, his condition is worse than ever. Very often the person thus' hated knows nothing of the ill feeling. He does not know that: his neighbour wishes him ill; but the man who hates knows jt.' His hatred becomes his constant companion. It' 5 -~ spoils his pleasure; it distorts his vision; it makes him imagine wrong when there is no wrong. If it is possible, it is far better to go to the person who is considered to have done the wrong; discuss- the matter with a real desire to find the reason for the trouble: and then to forgive. Forgiveness is of no value if no attempt is made to blot out the whole incident. There is a Bible text that fits the case well--"As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from us." "These local enmities are particularly bad in small communities, because folk have to meet each other so constantly, and because there is less to . turn the attention to other matters, It takes good character to forgive and forget--much more than it does-to- remember and hate. And the worst of -- it all is that the hatred spreads like a disease. * $$. ¢ y THE MAIN ISSUES IN ONTARIO Dung the next few weeks much will be said of the issues before, the electors of Ontario. The chief issues are six in number. ; 1. Hydro in all its phases, past ,present and _ future. 2. C. I. O., with its implications as to relations between capital and labor. 8, Beer parlors as a social factor and es a source of revenue. : 4. Separate schools viewed as a part of our political structure to be treated justly in the interests of the children affected, 6. Inheritance taxes, past, present, and future, having regard to the rights of the people as a whole, and to those who helped to make the in- heritance possible, 6. Relief in all its aspects--a problem that can stifle true civilization and proper progress, These six issues cannot be settled by the simple announcement of a party platform. .They will require careful study and modified treatment with the passing of the years. The method of approach and the viewpoint are all that can be judged by the electorate when the poll is taken. Even these will change as the issues develop, and then all - to improve conditions. "that will remain will be the good faith of our ; parliamentary representatives. . In South Ontario the choice of personalities is still under consideration by the Liberal and Con- servative parties. The time is here when char- acter and ability to govern fairly and intelligent- ~ ly are of paramount importance--of even greater importance than the winning of an election by a particular party. The problems that will face our legislators for many years to come will be of increasing complexity, and it is high time that something should be done"to ensure the efficiency of those who undertake the difficult task of ruling "this Province and this Dominion. FOUR GREAT MISTAKES A gentleman who has had unusual opportunities ~ for observing conditions in Europe, says that Germany has made four great mistakes in recent years, First, she has driven out the Jews--her best business men. This is not the first time that the prejudices of a people have blinded them to their own welfare. Many years ago Spain was the prey of this bitter anti-Semetic feeling, and the Jews were killed or expelled until practically none were . left, greatly to the detriment of the prospeiity of Spain. Indeed, that full prosperity of the: early years of the fourteenth century has never been thoroughly recovered. The second mistake has been the fight against the Roman Catholic church. And the third mis- take has been the fight against the Protestant church. This fight against organized religion is an dct of great stupidity, When idea] standards of living are discredited, the people suffer a. degradation that is at first unnoted; but the re- sults are none the less terrible, No nation can live as {it should live for the benefit of all its people without an active religious belief, The fourth mistake is 'the natural outcome of the other three. When business and religion are disorganized, then drastic measures are instituted In this case the Govern- ment have required all young people of sixteen years or over to enter labor camps, and to under- take certain Government directed tasks. Under proper control such an arrangement has its advantages, but the discrediting of religion, and the emphasis upon materia) sucgess hgve re- moved controls that sre essentia] at that period of life, The resylts are beginning to became evident, and they are pot happy results. It will be well to remember that what has hap- "pened in Germany may have jts counterpart here, if we do not take the duties of citizenship and religion more serjously, Outbursts against cer- tain forms of government and particular kinds of religion can never take the place of true patriot- ism, and practical religious devotion, It wil] he better to retain these blessings that are the basis of our freedom, than to attempt to regain them when we have lost them by our neglect, '| dispersed to the various cemeteries in HONEYDALE The friends of Mrs. W.

Will Not Do Without Telephone "Install it in the barn, young fel- low," instructed Farmer Tibbits, "I am not certain how long it will be be- fore we get the house rebuilt but one thing is mighty sure, we are never going to be without telephone service again, as long as I can help it." The day before, the farmhouse had caught fire. Mrs. Tibbits immediately on noticing it had rushed to the tele- phone and called help. By the time Farmer Tibbits, who was busily oc- cupied in a back field, was summoned, the town fire brigade had arrived. They had the fire under control in a short' time when the water supply be- came exhausted and the fire again broke out. - The furniture was saved by many willing helpers along with the tele- phone which was taken off the wall. The Fire Chief claims he would have saved the house, if the water supply had held out for another three or four minutes, Only ten days before the fire, the telephone salesman had called on Farmer Tibbits who had agreed to have service reconnected after a lapse of several lean years. Now, with the 'home destroyed, the telephone plant man, come to claim, his Company's property, found hi replacing the set in a new location where is would continue to serve until the house was rebuilt. Farmer Tibbits had been a subscriber of only one week's duration but that was sufficient to convince him of the value of telephone service. Farmer Tibbits is not alone in his appreciation of the emergency, as well as routine, value of oral communica- tion service. Recognition of the rural telephone as a valuable farm fire fighting vehicle is shown in a most substantial way in the reduction in fire insurance rates on farm property allowed the farmer who has a tele- phone in some states across the border. Two years ago a special committee of the United States Independent Telephone Asociation was formed. The purpose of the committee was to give the association a method of dealing with various committees representing .the stock fire insurance companies in the Republic in order to obtain, if pos- sible, recognition of the rural tele- phone in some substantial way by the fire insurance companies, as a pro- tection against fires on farms, This matter had been under dis- cussion by a number of telephone peo- ple and a number of inurance people for some years, but there had not been, until the appointment of this special committee, any official method for dealing with the subject by the National telephone association. The purpose of the telephone com- mittee was to obtain a reduction in fire inusrance ratés on farm property for the farmer who has a telephone, as indicating recognition of the rural Mr. and Mrs. Robt. McDonald, Mrs. Evangelistic Meetings in the Gospel Tent Tuesday telephone as a valuable aid in farm fire-fighting. Bertrum "McDonald, Mrs. W. Wright, ~~ Mrs. Fielding of Toronto has been The telephone committee aimed at this objective. The insurance people were sympathetic with the idea pro- vided it could be worked out on such a basis that, by a combination of things, the result obtained: would be a decrease of the very heavy loss of property and life on farms by fire. This was, of course, a constructive un- dertaking to which the telephone people heartily subscribed. After a series of meetings and dis- cussions on the matter, it was mutual- ly agreed that there were certain requisites (including a telephone) to a program of this kind. These re quisites consisted of; (a) A rural fire department to make runs to and fight fires on farms. (b) A telephone on the farm, and (¢) A water supply on the farm reasonably adequate to meet the de- mands of the rural fire truck in fight- ing the fire. The insurance people agreed that a telephone on the farm was an integral part of this program and also agreed that if these requisites were present it was proper that a reduction in the cost of fire insurance be granted. The question of the amount of the reduction which, in order to be ef- fective, had to be passed upon by various committees of the insurance people, was the subject of discussion for many months; but recently the agreements have been reached under which reductions of fire insurance rates on farm properties have been published hy the stock fire insurance companies in certain states, condition- al upon farmer having a telephone and upon there being a rural fire de- partment and water supply. ---GD Myrtle Station Service in the United Church next Sunday will be at 3 p.m. Sunday School will re-open again at the hour of 1.45 pm.
