But corporations wanting funds for expansion found them harder to get The total value of coin and banknotes in circulation outside the banks, and of chartered bank deposits held by individ- uals, corporations, trusts and all levels of government at mid- November was $19,953,000,000. This compared with $18,049,000,- 000 at the beginning of 1965. Interest rates rose, making it a moderate rate of growth through 1963 and most of 1964. It started a more rapid climb late in 1964, and took a big jump upwards last summer. The jump was purposeful. When Atlantic Acceptance Corp. was unable to meet interest payments on its borrowings and British Mortgage and Trust ran into difficulties, the Bank of Canada permitted, and tacitly encouraged, an increase in the money supply as a step towards restoring confidence in the badly-shaken financial commu- nity. BIBLE LESSON God's F By R. H. RAMSEY When we discuss the matter of God as Father, and pray to Him as our Heavenly Father, we are not acting upon a truth arrived at through philosophy, science. or speculation, but a truth resting solidly upon the affirmations of the scriptures. There are four major aspects of this Fatherhood of God. First,| Four Major Aspects atherhood Has In the course of his message to the meémbers of Simcoe Street United Church, at the an- nual meeting this week, the minister, Rev. John K. Moffat, noted a quickening in the spirit- ual life of the congregation. This, he said, was reflected in every area of stewardship as more and more people commit- ted time, talent and material resources to the work of the Kingdom, "During 1965', he continued, "the congregation was privileg- ed to welcome a fine group of 47 new members to its fellow- ship. This brings to more than 1,000 the number of new mem- bers received into the church during the 17 years of the cur- rent ministry". The Sunday School assembly hall was the setting for the gathering which met under the chairmanship of R. V.

The yield on Government of Canada treasury bills rose to higher lev- els than in 1963 or 1964. Early in December, the Bank of Canada increased its interest rate to 4% per cent from 4%, the level at which it had been} since November, 1964, This fol- loved the action of the U.S. Fed- eral Reserve Board in raising its rediscount rate to 4% per cent from 4. Between April 30 and Sept. 30, the currency. and chartered bank deposits held by the gen- eral public rose to $19,143,000,- 000 from $18,174,000,000, Later in the year, the central bank followed a policy de- scribed as taut money. Money was available for borrowers, but at relatively high interest rates. Corporations could still expand if they were willing to pay the higher costs. It is difficult for even the ex- men by nature as Creator and Maker. Second, His providential Fatherhood, especially in rela- tion to Israel, which He has called "'my son, my firstborn." Third, God is the Father of those who become His children through belief in Christ and re- generation by the Holy Spirit.

During the the year the big borrowers of U.S. funds--principally provin- cial government agencies, mu- nicipalities and many corpora- tions--had to delay their pro- grams or look to the Canadian money market for funds. A freeze was put on the move- ment of capita] from the U.S. to Canada on new Canadian bond issues to carry out .Can- ada's undertaking in July, 1963, that it would not use borrow- ings to increase its reserve of U:S- dollars; Early in 1966 a new source of funds will become available for provincial governments when the Canada-Pension Plan fund begins to grow. Premiums paid into the fund by employers and employees which run in excess of three months' needs and ad- ministration expense will be made available for investment in provincial government bonds. The future of interest rates andthe availability~-of -fands; therefore, is made uncertain by these new factors. GROWTE MODERATES The money suppiy had shown SEES Soc IF YOUR ANSWER IS "VES" 1.

DAVID ADAMS TOPIC: "ART AND LITERATURE iN WEST AFRICA" UNITARIAN FELLOWSHIP SIMCOE_HALL BOYS CLUB Eulalie Ave, OSHAWA last six weeks of| 1964's $47,003,000,000. But two percentage points of this would be price inflation. The Dominion Bureau of Sta- itistics index of industrial pro- duction, based on 1949 output jequalling 100, is published }monthly but about four months behind actual performance. It was showing healthy gains dur- ing the summer, reaching 234.7 in June and. 221.9 in August compared with 220.5 and 207.9 in the same months in 1964. The extent of interest-rate in- creases gvas reflected in govern- ment bond prices. In January investors could get only five per cent or less on long-term bonds In November, they could get }more than 5% per cent. Com- mercial borrowers had to pay more, of course, and the cost of. 'conventional. mortgages was creation by Him, has been gen- erally regarded as a New Testa- ment doctrine. Actually, as in the case of most Christian be- liefs, it began in the Old Testa- ment where we find God's love for His child Israel shown, from the beginning, by His mighty works and the preservation of His people. This nation was chosen to be the recipient' of God's revelation through scrip- ture, to be continually called to obedience by the prophets, and finally to be the people among whom God would become incar- nate in the person of His Son. DEPARTED WORSHIP In spite of all God's love, | Israel departed again and again) from His worship and pvas pun- ished. Yet even the retribution was tempered with mercy, com- passion and God's Fatherly love. The idea of God as Father goes much further in the teach- ings of Christ. We are encour- aged to pray to God the Father, assured that our prayers will be answered, We are encouraged| the son separated from God the Father by sin. God stands ready to welcome back to Himself all who are truly repentant, This is more than compassion. It is full and immediate reconciliation between God and man, Christ obtained this reconciliation for us and we experience it when we recover, through Him, full communion between God and man. SET FORTH TRUTH The first four verses of John 14, one of the greatest chapters of the Bible, set forth four pro- found truths: the certainty of God, Christ's equality with the Father, the reality of heaven as our eternal home, and the future return of Jesus Christ, In a great threefold descrip- tion of Himself, Christ declares He is the way, the truth, and the life. He is the source and the foundation of all the great acts of God; He is the only way, guides in need that they, in turn, might comfort and console others, whatever the affliction they may be suffering. GOLDEN TEXT "But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we are all the work of thy hand." --Isalah 64:8. McDOWELL SIGNS CLEVELAND, Ohio (AP) -- Left - hander Sam McDowell signed his 1966 baseball con- tract with Cleveland Indians Tuesday. He led the American League in strikeouts with 325 and had the league's best earned-run average of 2.18 in truth that us, God's/32 infants and 38 couples were eternal life imparted to us. The short opening passage from Paul's second epistle to the Corinthians is a fitting cli- max.to this lesson on God as Father, for it suggests yet an- other paternal facet of God, that of comforter. God gives comfort and consolation to those united in marriage. Of the total $28,500 raised for all missionary and extension work in Canada and overseas, $18,682 was sent to the mission- ary and Maintenance Fund, $5,000 was given to the Oshawa Presbytery Extension Fund and the UCW contributed $4,770 to The total raised for all pur- poses by the church and all its organizations was $84,340. The amonut owing on the new build- ing was reduced by $15,000. The UCW contributed $3,800 to this fund and the 50-50 Club $500. Under the direction of Mrs, R. V. Sheffield the 12 units of the United Church Women, with 284 members, raised $9,310 and made 3,852 recorded cafs on sick and shut-in folk,/ These units also staffed the Baby Care Department on Sundays, collect- ed a large quantity « clothing for overseas relief,' supplied leadership in the Sunday School, provided flowers for the Sunday services and packaged and dis- tributed flowers and fruit: to shut-ins at Christmas. TEACHERS NEEDED The Sunday School reported a total enrolment of 480 with 40 teachers and officers. In giving his report, the superintendent, Fred Britton, stressed the need for more teachers and appealed for volunteers for this import- 'ant work of the church. It was noted that 12 students from the Sunday School made their public profession of faith in Christ after attending member- ship classes conducted by the WESTMOUNT minister. The Sunday School contributed $400 to the mission- ary and maintenance fund. The 50-50 Couples Club, under the leadership of Mr, and Mrs. Donald Houlden, reported good year with $1,300 raised from the turkey supper and other projects. Five hundred dollars was contributed to the building fund. The senior and junior choirs were warmly commended for another year of excellent ser- vice to the congregation in the ministry of 'praise. The senior choir has a membership of 47 under the skilled direction of R. G. Geen, The junior choir, under Donald Houlden and Steve Salmers, led the congregation in-the service of praise on sev- eral i isted the ton Kennedy, Howard Luke, Hugh McLeod, Douglas McDou- gall, Lloyd Moody, George Skuce and James Wagg.

Harding presented the minister and his wife with a cheque for their forthcoming summer trip to Europe to visit Rev. and Mrs. Richard Moffat.
