publishers notes and comments the cult of security in this day when all political parties are vieing with each other to bring about a new kind of security for the people of canada the financail post sounds a note that needs to ring out at this time because as the post says that in the headlong leap by all parties to provide social security there is being created a new kind of insecurity read this editoral carefully and you will have something to ponder for the past 10 or 20 years we have been obscessed with the economics of security we have been thinking of stabilizing profits keeping a fool from losing his money social security ironing out depressions creating a situation where anybody who remained sober and didnt run off with somebody elses wife was assured of a comfortable old age thurman arnold said that a few years ago for us it is particularly apt at this time for canada seems now to be in for a stupefying dose of legislation and regulation designed to provide us canadians with security guaranteed absolute ther is a lot of security in staying in bed there is more of it if we lock ourselves jn a bank vault the time of mans greatest security in recorded history was perhaps those long centuries marked chiefly by lack of change and almost devoid of all progress known as the middle ages born a serfman had the security of knowing he would not become less than a serf would not become any- thing more the serf had the security of knowing that he would be always rather hungry and never overfed the mak er of shoes had security because stagnation does not pro- duce new methods of making or disposing of shoes nor of making better ones cheaper- the noble lord had security as ia superior kind of man as proprietor of the lives and lands in his inheritance as operator of various monopolies as beneficiary of what in the language of today were simply assorted kinds of graft the new era of opportunity which produced the ren aissance was also a new era of material insecurity old wrongs were righted fine old methods were blasted by finer ones the fool born to fortune toppled and the wise maribbrn to serfdom soared no one today wants a candianto have the opportun ity the libertythe security or theindiyidual right to gol without food or shelter as memtrsvbneof ariother our wef areis mutual but in the current headlong leap by all parties to pro vide what they call minimum social utilityservices- there is being created a new kind of insecurity there are millions of canadians who do not want prunwfor breakfast whodo want a civilization in which the taxi driver of today- tomorrow rides hi ttie back seat in which todays big shot is tomorrows soda jerk is the era of security into which we are being rushed to give us merely animal security there are indications that for people who want something more than that for the people of energy character and courage it may be an era of profound insecurity school boards are liable school boards would do well these days to make a perusal of their accident insurance policies to make sure that they are uptodate in meeting the changing outlook of the day an accident that would have been considered the fault of the pupil a few years ago may today be assess ed against the school board there has not been so much change in the statutes as their has been- in the viewpoint of judges or judiciary bodies only last week a rural school board in lennox and addington was assessed over 800 because a lad climbed over a pile of bricks ia the school yard arid broke his leg once upon a time it would have at once been said that the boy ought to have kept off the bricks and that he had no business climbing over them today the judge says that school boards have got to learn that they cannot leave piles of bricks around for children to fall over they cannot leave long grass for the child to get tangled in and so with this viewpoint our advice is that you look well to your liability insurance and make sure it covers your situation county health service looking to post war years when the question of health particularly that of the children in our schools is going to receive more attention than ever before because of its very important relation to education ontario county council has made the firstmove towards the establishment of a county health unit which will provide for every municipality in the county a modern health service the times gazette of osh- awa points out at the june session of the council the chair man of the committee on education was instructed to obtain from the minister of health all information with respect to these units which incidentally are backed by provincial legislation and have the blessing of the province plus fin ancial assistance this information will be presented to the council when it meets in november the moving spirit in the steps now planned to give on tario a sounder and more extensive health service is the hon dr vivian minister of health in the drew cabinet who told the delegates to the county councils and rural school trustees sections of the ontario educational association at easter that the government realizes that the safeguarding of health and the prevention of illness are of great import ance to the individual he pointed out that out of 900 com munities with municipal government only 15 of these have a health officer devoting his time to the task of prevent ing unnecessary illness in 240 municipalities some measure of public health nursing is in effect but it is rather thinly spread he stressed thatmany municipalities even if they desired to unitewith others for largehealth units have riot- considered that they were financially able to meet the in creased costs the financing of the complete program for this larger unit passed at the last- session of the ontario legislature will now be aided by increased provincial grants this is where the county of ontario can come in legislation permits of the establishing of a unit which will be countywide and comprehensive in its scope partly financedbythe province and including many health services- not heretofore made available in many municipalities as already noted special attentionis tobegiven to school children of- today who are to be the men and women of affairs tomorrow and even to children of preschool age realizing that in unity there is i strength the minister of health sees in larger well organized health units brighter prospects in the matter of health for the future making happier boys and girls better men and women reducing family illness expenses and the building nip of a more healthy citizenship the county council will have all the information it re quires in november and some definite action will likely be taken as many members feel that it wouldbe well worth while the cost according to the county of oxford where a countywide health system is in operation under county council supervision is not great v careful not to permit anything to turn him aside so that he may not miss the prize at the end of the way verse 25 every man thatistri- veth is temperate- inauthings the successful contestant must be careful not to give way to debilit ating habits he needs to exercise selfcontrol that he may be at his best in the arena if men do these things to obtain a corruptible prize how much more- careful should he be who has eternal values in view verse 26 1 therefore so run not as uncertainly paul himself was running the race he had nofear of the outcome he counted on fin ishing his course with joy acts 20 24 this he did as we learn from 2 tinidthy 4 7 verse 27 i keep under my body he dare not become care less lest he lose out in the race and become at last a castaway that is be disapproved and so fail of the longedfor reward no servant of christ dare trifle with sin if he would have the lords approval and commendation for a life of de voted service 1 thess 522 abstain from all appearance of evil the

theiicsson as a whole approach to the lesson itwouldbea great mistake to suppose that the passages ofscrip- ture selected for todays lesson are addressed to the unsaved with a j arousing them to the im- portance of selfdiscipline in order to fib themselves for life on earth- and to prepare for the life to come they all with the exception of the storyjof the rechabites have to do i with the responsibility of children tof god to walk in obedience to the word of thetord so that they may grow in grace and in practical holiness 2 cor 71 they emp hasize the great practical truth that while we are saved by grace we are responsible to deny the path of selfabnegation which our saviour trod before us if we be come strong christians iand earn the rewards that our lordlongs to bestow upon us for faithful service the term selfindulgent -follow- er ofchrist is a misnomer we can honor as we reckon ourselves dead indeed unto sin but alive untogod in him rom 6ni jvbut while all this is true we

is the beginning of knowledge fear here implies not dread but rather reverent awe he who does not revere god is branded as a fooi a simpleton who in his colossal ignorance often fancies- himself wiser than his creator and so- ig noring all advice plunges head- long into things that are destruc tive alike to- body and soul verse8 the instruction of thy fatherthe law of thy mother parents if godly themselves are youths wisest counselors to spurn their counsel is to take the road to ruin verse 9 an ornament of grace unto thy head and chains about thy neck the most charming of all adornment is that of a quiet subjectspiritsuch as peter recom mends to christian women 1 pet 33 4 verse 10if sinners entice thee consent thou not misguided youths often imagine it speaks of manlyindependence to follow with the sophisticated worldling and join in sinful follies and excesses but the truly independent man or woman is the one who clings to high ideals seeks to honor god and so dares to be different and to refuse to walk in the way of the ungodly jer 355 i set before the sons of the house of the rechabites pots full of wine this was intended as a test to see whether these rechabites would cleave to the principlesoaiddown by the found- erjof their family some years be fore verse 6 they said- we will drink no wine spurning the pro- fferedbeveragetheygave all their reason the fact that jonadab the son of rechab their father had commanded his descendants to avoid everything that pertained to such indulgencethey t his word r as laying a sacred obli gation upon them to be obedient oii si itsn j j to his expressed will verse 7 all your days ye shall dwell in tents jonadab evidently had a horror of the temptations of city life and so bade his children to maintain a nomadic existence fr from the madening crowd verse 8 we obeyed the voice of jonadabin all that he hath charged us to drink no wine all our days we may be certain that they lost nothing by this strict teetotalisnn and they preserved a good conscience which is of more value than any dangerous experi ments with dubious pleasures verse 9 neither have we vine yard nor field- nor seed so deter mined were they not to expose themselves or their children to temptation- that they would not even avail themsolves of what might otherwise be perfectly allowable their respect for the law of their progenitor outweighed all other considerations verse 10 we have obeyed and done according to all that jonadab our father commanded us in- this they became examples of loyalty to principle- which we may well imitate- even though not bound by exactly the same require ments 1 cor 924 so run that ye may obtain in this passage the apostle is stressing the difference between salvation which is wholly of grace and rewards which are given by the lord for faithful ser vice he uses the illustration of the racecourse the athlete here por trays the christian now running the race of godliness he is to be the old home town by stanley the heart of the lesson while it is very important to in still right moral principles into the mind of a child it is ever necess ary to stress above all else the need of being in a right relation ship to god by the new birth and obedience to his word jn order that one may receive from him the power through the indwelling holy spirit to overcome all evil tendencies and unclean habits children should be admonished t0 avoid all evil companionships and the indulgence in anything that would have a tendency to form such habits but parents should never overlook the fact that moral ity and selfcontrol right and prec ious as they are do not save there must be personal faith in the lord jesus christ in order to become children of god dr s s ball physician and surgeon
