accompan ied by her three sons two of whom are in claremont while the third and deceased was employed in toronto this is one of several calamities which have overtaken this house hold as the boys who have made heir home here with their mother have been quarantined for the past week or so with scarlet fever also nobody wants the job the village of claremont is still minus one trustee and after cwo vain attempts to fill the vacancy at recent nomination meetings it be gins to appear that the job ra cer tainly not a desirable one during the last term mr thompson relin quished his post as a village trustee and his place was filled until the end of the year by mr douglas several were nominated to take the position hut all declined and although mr douglas has been approached to continue he has so far declined the only way provided by the law to fill such a gap is by nomination but it would seem that a thorough canvas of the situation should be made ahead of time to provide at least some

medical aid continued from page 6 shoulders the shepherd not only seeks the lost but carries it home it is not here a question of the saved one following jesus which is an other phae of truth altogether as in luke 92 24 but what is pictured here is the security of the one who has been found by the good shep herd verse u rejoice with me for i have found my sheep which was lost nothing can exceed the saviours joy when he saves a poor needy sinner theb 122 it was for this he went to the cross that he might deliver those who had wan dered so far from cod they could never find their way back verse 7 likewise joy shall be in leaven all saints in heaven re joice with him when another soul is saved notice that here the emphasis is laid upon one sinner that re- ionteth no one is found by the good shepherd who is not person- ill repentant and longing for de liverance this is in vivid contrast to the selfcomplacency of those who lake the place of just persons which need no repentance actually there are none who do not need to repent acts 1730 luke 135 but the seltrighteous imagine them selves to be fit for god as they are verse s light a candle and sweep and seek diligently in thee actions of the anxious woman h has lost one of her treasured coins we see the work of the holy spirit portrayed he if is who en lightens the darkness and works energetically to bring back that which is as dead to god as the piece oi silver verse 9 i have found the piece which i had lost all belonged to gou by creation he lost them be cause of their own willfullness he rejoices when they are found again through the spirits working verse 10 joy in the presence of the angels of god observe it does not say as we often hear it misquot ed- that there is joy among the angels this is undoubtedly true for angels share the joy of their lord but jesus speaks of joy in the pre tence of the angels redeemed sin- neiirs are in glory in the presence of the angels and these rejoice when a tinner repents the heart of the lesson the heart of the lesson today is really the opening up of the heart of god his love goes out to all who have wandered into paths of sin he is ever reaching out toward them and seeking to save them 2 pet 39 it was to save sinners that christ came from the glory of the fathers house to the cross of shame tl tim 115 for this purpose the holy spirit has come into the world john 167 s each person of the trinity is eager anxious to see the first sign of repentance and to re ceive the brokenhearted one to him self all heaven rejoices when sin ner are brought to acknowledge their guilt and to trust the one who came to seek and to save that which was lost w p moore holds open forum continued from page 5 moore declared this is bringing oti a matter we will have to face that of agricultural wages in the last census it was shown that 316- 000 persons are workinng without wages and s22 per cent of this total ic on our farms and mostly farmers sons the federal member pointed out that canada is handicapped in her position in the export market to complete with countries in which there are union wages for farm employees protests have been re ceived from countries in which there are set farm wages and other countries have found they cannot cede wages in agriculture and then opn their doors to import from countries where the farm labor is not paid in canada and the united states farm wages are not coded and wages for hired farm hands arc the second lowest rate in the world mr moore declared wo are not paying our own sons must face tho facts urging that the situation bo faced mr moore stated ho was glad to bee farmers sons making good wages in the factories and get a little bit of money we must go as far as we can to help win this war and whether thse young men would be better on the fields than in the factories is hard to say at the present time britain is cry ing for more products of the motor industries and for ships and trucks to cart supplies the whole situation may be charged by the recent announcement of the united states that sno is ready to wipe out the dollar mark and supply these goods as they are needed without cash on tae line canada must have the money she is not able to wipe out the dollar mark mr moore admitted the action of the united states nay change the whole situation over night and the call for munitions and war equipment production here may slacken off he pointed out that four out of every five dollars in war orders to canadian motor companies is money from britain these orders are plac ed in competition with united states and profits are not excessive i believe in the cooperative idea but i would not want to be in a cooperative move unless it was there to make profit tho member admitted in speaking in defense of profits i see no reason why a co operative society is any more com mendable than a joint stock com pany lnclusty turnover greater 111 comparing the profits of indus try with the profits being derived by agriculture mr moore explain- ei that in industry the capital is turned over probably once in a year in agriculture the capital is turned over only once in every four or five year he pointed out if there is a man here who can tell me how to remedy this situation i will take off my hat to him the basic wage rate in the motor industry is 65 cents it was re vealed this rate is high because in ordinary times the work is sea sonable is usually about eight months of the year when the war came and pro duction was boosted these men were given full time and overtime and what was the industry going to do reduce the basic rate he asked they should have either cut the rate or balanced other rates to keep up with it mr mclaughlin con tended who would balance it asked mr moore who put the price of butter down he was asked no gravy in war speaking on the price of butter mr moore pointed out that while the government had in 1939 bought three million pounds it could not be expected to do it periodically he challenged anyone to show him why butter now should cost more than 35 cents a pound youve got to get a bit of gravy once in a while he was told from the hall you cant get gravy out of a war mr moore assured the crowd the high wage earners wont get get any gravy youd be surprised at the income taxes they will have to pay go by motor coach fares are low round
