suntimes less profanity a recent observation that men are too much given to profanity and that the dirty story is still too prevalent may be true those who can look back 40 years or more will notice that while there is still plenty of profanity and obscene narration the practice has greatly reduced forty years ago cursing and swearing was common even in some business offices an employee in a business office today giving vent to a blast of foul language would run a grave risk of losing his job a university professor who was a product of the profanity practice of half a century ago punctuated his lectures with profanity he got away with it because he was an authority on his subject and brilliant as an instructor the story is told of a man whose tongue was coated with profanity being cured of the practice through a chance listening to the profane outburst of a man he did not know he realized suddenly that he sounded to others as the profaner sounded to him it aired him the religious approach to the habit of cursing and swearing and to the depravity of trading filthy stories has registered much success in the last decade experts learn to save gasoline according to

little doubt that much menial ill ness in adult hfe can be traced xiek to the too grea use of fear of punishment as a bi suck held over a child by an adult in authority a child siodu not be scared into be ing good by threats of a whip piig or a bogey man at ineffective method oi control is deceivirg a child because every child needs the security which comes from knowing that his parent is one in whom he can have faith confidence and trust rewards and bribes have the distinct disadvantage that a bright child is apt to hold but for a bigger reward a better bribe each time blackmail is not just reserved for grownups reasoning like the river can go on and on forever is also a poor way to control a child in a situation where obedience s essential control of a small child by a parent cannot be maintained y an adult who cannot say tic because he is afraid to make a decision and see to it that the child follows it a com mand should never be given unless it is necessary neither should a parent ever leave himself out on a limb by giv ing an order which he cannot see to it that the child carries out getting rattled or angry oi unloving are all mistakes in control after all the

people in prayer must have clean hands ie clean lives and they must be free from resentments and cavil- ings rom 82g the spirit also helpeth our infirmities maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered part of the minis try of the holy spirit is to help us to pray sometimes by so illuminating our minds that we freely utter our petitions in the will of god and some times by an inarticulate pres sure of spirit verse 27 and he that scarcheth the hearts inoweth whit is the mind of the spirit when we are conscious only of a heavy pressure which we cannot interpret but express only in inward groanings god knows the meaning of it foi that is just our fellowship in the intercessions of the holy spirit within us at such times we are praying better than we know verse 2s and we know that all things work together foi good to them that love god to them who are called according to his purpose we look at individual circumstan ces but this verse completes the sum total is good in the love and purpose of god tlio heart of the lesson the two passages in the print ed portion of our lesson pre sent two aspects of the minis try of prayer paul in writing to his young- ei associate timothy gives him instructions in church or der in this matter he gives first place to tlje prayer ive of the church prayei must have a large place in the assemblies of gods people their prayers are not to be local and narrow but catholic for all men too often we go to church to shut the world out instead e- very time we attend church it should be to lift a world of sinners up before god in lov ing prayeyr that will make our churches truly mission ary rulers ought to be remem bered by the church if for no other reason than that the church itself will always feel the effects of good or bad gov ernment if we wish the minis try of the church to proceed unhindered we must pray for governmental authorities that their legislative acts may 1k favorable to the freedom of the gospel our prayers should be as broad as the love of god and should reach as far as there is a soul for whom christ died the redeeming sacri fice of christ and his power- editors mail toronto ont august 12th 1953 editor the tribune sto v eev 1 1 jle on ta rid dear sir i often wonder how the fut ure is going to deal with that famous question which 1 ran across in your advertising col umns and which brought up nostalgic memories of the 19- 1hs struggle how you gon na keep em down on the farm after theyve seen iaree so far as i can see by the editorial and news columns were just not doing so if i re member aright we have -100- 000 fewer workers on canad ian farms in 19j than there were in 1939 whether thats a smart trend or the opposite i leave to the experts and the folk with the facts and the figures but some how i get the impression that there are some pretty hefty problems buried beneath this trend to unbinization and not only in canada but in many other socalled streamlined and modern country it seems to this reader for example that this tcchnologic- cd revolution can be rated as i 00 per cent credit and achieve ment under which i would term generous weather condi tions but the stress and strain will come with the first crop failure year that this is not exclusively my thought may he visualized by the following few words by agriculture sec retary benson at washington recently we have had over 10 years of exceptionally heav- y crops moisture conditions have been favorable that is an almost unheard of fan to have over 10 years in a row of high yield some people think we are in for a series of dry years and if we do go into a dry year it might be a good thing to have our bin full anyway the formations in dicate that ofr the farm cana dians will be only prudent to see to it that
