twelve pages weekly circulation 1850 copies subscription kates per year in advance in canada 200 in usa 250 a v nolan son publishers notes and comments how beer is curtailed the legal allowance for any individual in ontario is cow 48 pints of beer daily drinking a bottle every 15 minutes it will take him 12 hours a day to dispose of his ration allowing no time out for meals rest or recreation fortunately he is given sunday off but he is also allowed four fortyounce bottles of spirits per monthsone a week so he will have to devote his sundays to getting rid of this after which he will brobably not feel inclined to touch his wine allowance some weekly publishers do strange things it is rather amazing that weekly newspapers can be found who weekly publish a free advertisement solicit- ing subscriptions for a list of magazines these newspapers handle the subscriptions without recompense to them selves and benefit only if they get an order for their own paper which they otherwise would not get if the local paper is good enough to sell on its own merits why handle the business of these magazines potential opposition to the weekly newspaper in the advertising field recently solicitation for an advertisment brought the reply that a certain magazine covered the field so thorough ly there was no need felt to extend their advertising account to the weekly newspaper highest paid army in the world a great many canadian homes will be affected by the increases in pay for private soldiers and by the new scale of allowances and costofliving bonus for dependents of men in the navy army and air force which will go into effect this month- according to an announcement by the department of national defence 1 canada is proudly listed as having the highest paid army in the world and the average canadian to whom the army belongs is pleased because the troops are rated as the bestorganized fighting unit in existence the pay increases are contingent upon the proficiency and good conduct of the men jack canuck in the army will continue to received 130 a day as a private in the army but at the end of four months efficient service and good conduct he will be given an increase in pay of 10 cents a day if at the end of six months he appears to be a willing get another tencent raise in pay so that from then on he will be paid 150 a day all of this money does not go to the soldier ihowever he will under the new assignment of pay commencing 1st february send his wife 23 a month instead of 20 if he is a private or an nco below the rank of sergeant and earning more than 140 per day his wife and family will receive increased allowances in their own right also they will receive a costofliving bonus and in addition depen dents may earn up to40 a month instead of 20 without having their allowances affected banks grow more independent gone are the days when your banker was pleased to do little services for you without charge you remember when a cheque on a neighboring town bank was cashed without charge and when the bank ran series of- advertisements in the local press telling the people that thrift was a mark of distinction and that everybody should save you recall the friendly rivalry between the two institutions in your town now all this is different since chartered banks are now operated much under the same set of rules and a privilege extended customers is withdrawn from one bank the rival institution is quick to carry out the same regulation we recall a man com plaining at a local bank that he had cashed a cheque drawn on markham without charge across the road and now the other bank was askirigpay for cashing a similar cheque the banker it was said reported the incident to his head office and the rival bank manager who cashed the cheque without charge was cautioned jby his head office today even that bit of rivalry is gone and places like stouffville are reduced to one bank under the circum stances it is just as well there is little or no advantage in two banks operating where there is no competition the financial post last week referring to the curtail ment of bank privileges or servires glosses over the banks position bysaymg it is brought about because of increased operating costs and the lack of demand for s current loans further reference is made by the post to the plan adopted of charging custoitiersfor booking their sav- ings account which is in sharp contrast to the days when banks solicited people for their business the post says until a few years ago many of these services were given free by the banks the majority of people with savings accounts while drawing interest on their deposits also used their accounts to pay their bills cheques were drawn freely even for ridiculously small amounts no matter how many cheques were cashed no charge was made in the aggregate this meant great deal olwork for the individual bank branch staff the same was true as regards collections in most branch banks a large part of the time of one or more employees was occupied in presenting drafts making collections etc sometimes this sunday school less on lesson for january 31 jksus the bread of life golden text jesus said unto them i am the bread of life john 635 the lessox as a whoie the i ams of christ have a very prominent place in the gospel i am is the incommunicable name of the eternal god put after it any word that expresses the need of mankind he is the one who is in himself the answer to that need jesus because he was god mani fest in the flesh used this name many times in revealing himself here he says i am the living bread i am the bread of life it is he alone who can give life and then nourish and sustain all who in faith feed upon himself he is the bread of god for the father ever finds delight in him we eat this living bread when we meditate upon the perfections of the person of our lord in this way our souls are fed and our spiritual life sustained throughout the greater part of the world bread is recognized as the most important element in human diet the very fact that scripture says man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that pro ceeded out of the mouth of god matt 44 suggests that apart from bread it is difficult to maintain life and health what bread is therefore to the ibody christ jesus is to the soul but it is not simply as incarnate that he becomes our spiritual food but as crucified on our behalf we are to eat his flesh and drink his blood vs54 55 we think of him as the one who ponred out his soul unto death who gave his precious blood for our edemption it was not of sacramen tal participation in the eucharist that he spoke when he said my the old home town by stanley thbrtre hcrtmn 40op ola rrseems

breaking and distributing the food to the wonder ing disciples who in turn passed it on to the waiting throngs until all were satisfied verse 12 gather up the frag ments that remain while there was more than enough to meet every present need he would have nothing wasted we are not to be careless with the provision entrust ed to us lest we find ourselves in need again of that which has been wasted verse 13 they filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves there were no fragments of the fishes which would not have been preserved fresh but flesh is meat indeed and my blood the bread was easily kept- until is drink indeed for if this meant needed again note that there was that we only eathis flesh and drink a basket apiece ifor each of the his blood as we partake of the lords supper it would imply that apart from this no one can obtain life we eat and drink as we ibe- lieve in and meditate upon the great sacrifice of our lord who loved us and gave himself for us gal 220 verse by verse john 68- andrew simon peters brother we generally find andrew quietly active when there was something of importance to be attended to he was not si energetic or impulsive as his gifted brother whom he had led to christ john 14042 but he was an earnest dependable man who might well be an example to us all when jesus brought the need of the hungry multitude before his disciples it was andrew who looked about for means to supply their food he found only a lad with a lunch sufficient for himself but all of which he turned over to andrew who brought it to jesus verse 9 there is a lad here howapt we are to overlook these lads yet how often mere boys have proved to be valuable servants of christ when given an opportunity to minister to him this lad had five barley loaves and two small fishes and they seemed a very in adequate supply indeed but they were his all and lie gave them to the lord verse 10 make the men sit down when people are seated there is not much difference be tween them tall and short rich and poor cultured and uncultured all are on one common level when the five thousand were thus seated they must have wondered what possible plans the lord had for satisfying their hunger verse 11 jesus took the loaves and when he had given thanks he distributed to the disciples he who was constantly multiplying the grain sown in the fields and the fishes in twelve disciples even though they had questioned the possibility of caring for so many people in a de sert place verse 14 this is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world doubtless the multitude remembered how the prophet elijah had been used of god in connection with the unwasting barrel of meal and the unfailing cruse of oil 1 kings 171410 and the feed ing of the hundred men by elisha was twenty loaves of bread 2 kings 44222 these were miracles of the same kind as that which they had witnessed but the lord had far exceeded the supplies given through these two prophets of old then they probably recalled the lord had said as he depicted the days of messiah i will satisfy her cojdiander overseas lent gen e w siiiisom coiinimmlci- of the newly form ed canadian- armored corps overseas was done without charge sometimes a nominal fee was asked it all took time and the ibanks realized that time is money as the proportion of assets employed in loans shrank and interest rates tended downward the banks were forced to consider ways of increasing their earnings from other sources a charge for services rendered was the answer the post failed to point out that all through the depres sion the same substantial interest to their shareholders was maintained the double liability isno more a bugbear as banks are not likely to fail because of the close network between the group of chartered banks interest rates have been halved but the same rates are charged for the average loan to individuals allinall mr john public is getting a stiff deal since the setup of the bank of canada we must stiffen our opposition to what is going on in banking circles if we are to fend off still more charges now in the offing poor with bread psa 132lg they felt sure that the promised one had come at last who was to deliver israel verse 30 what sign shewest thou what dost thou work it was on the following day that a great multitude stirred by the fame of the wonderful repast so many had enjoyed came seeking for the one who could feed such throngs without toil or expense eager to have him repeat the miracle for their benefit they asked for a sign verse 31 our fathers did eat manna in the desert it is easy to discern the working of their minds they were challenging jesus to give bread from heaven that their appetites might be satisfied they could quote scripture but there was i no exercise of conscience verse 32 my father giveth you the true bread from heaven the manna was but a type of christ himself the living bread come down ifrom heaven to become the satisfying portion of the souls of those who trusted him jesus would not repeat the miracle of the pre vious day on- that occasion he gave bread to a liungry people there was no occasion for such a display of power now he would not give a sign to gratify curiosity or selfish ness verse 33 the bread of god is he which cometh down from heaven and giveth life unto the world this is what he would have them learn he the soil of the father had come to earth as- man in order to meet every need of the hearts and consciences of sinful men those who feed on him in faith receive eternal life v 47 verse 34 lord evermore give us this bread had their prayer been sincere it would have been abundantly answered but the rest of the chapter shows it was uttered with no real sense of their need verse 35 he that cometh he that ibelieveth our lord made it clear what he meant by eating the bread of life it is to come to him in faith to believe on him to trust him as saviour and then to be occupied with him day by day it is thus we feed on the bread of life and drink of the living water business dental e s barker ld djxs- honor graduate of royal couegs of dental surgeons and of the
