municipality of this size the record statistically is impressive last year for example he army provided free or at minimum charge 247500 meals for 3st6 families it gave warm clothing to 1990 families it gave help counsel and medical care to 231 unmarried mothers it provided shelter for the aged and the homeles it offered comfort and assistance to prisoners and exprisoners it found 71 missing persons it treated 336 alcoholics and in other ways it served humanity statistics however cannot tell the whole story no one can measure the good the salvation army does among the destitute the abandoned the lonely and among those without hope and sick in heart and soul the fruits of the blessed work of the army are incalcul able give alms of thy goods and never turn thy face from any poor man and then the face of the lord shall not be turned away from thee pay hike for councillors inevitable stouffville ratepayers voted overwhelmingly last year to finance a sewerage system in town and then elected a council on whose shoulders they placed the responsibility of carrying out the task of establishing this system it was inevitable that these men would and should receive better remuneration for their time than the small annual fee councils had been receiving even without the stupendous job of bringing in the sewer project ratepayers must expect to be called on for a better stipend for councillors most of them businessmen who must give hours and hours of their time to conducting the towns affairs municipal busi ness has become increasingly complex greater popula tion has brought greater problems and the necessity for more and more meetings last week alone the local council required four meetings to deal with all the pressing business time was when the local members could meet once a month and have time to spare these times have gone forever council now meets twice a month and as many more times in between on top of the actual meetings the only time for which they are paid councillors must hold committee meetings must run here and there to deal with one problem and an other all of which goes gratis with the position while it is true these men chose to run for the office of council but by equal token those ratepayers who elected them were equally as anxious to have someone shoulder this responsibility and most pre ferably anyone but themselves the operation of the municipality of stouffville is a business a one hundred thousand dollar a year business and even with the increases voted last week the total payment for the managers is likely to be less than 2000 canadians seek broader horizons following the increasing urge to broaden their personal horizons by travel more canadians are on the move around the shrinking globe than ever before a dominion bureau of statistics report shown that canadians last year spent 44 1000000 on visits to all countries the greater part of which 361000- 000 was spent on visits to the united states spent by visitors to canada during the year was 5329000000 less than either figure d ieo dolan director of the canadian govern ment travel bureau claims that canadians spend more per capita than the people of any other country on pleasure travel outside their own borders this is amplified by a survey by one of the worlds leading airlines which shown that europe and the caribbean were most popular with canadians last year among the more unusual ports of call for canad ians on business or pleasure were liberia and the gold coast in africa the azores iceland nicaragua and guatemala in central america and turkey and lib ation in the middle last rapidly gaining in favor are such south american countries as brazil argen tina colombia peru and chile among the factors increasing travel to south america are business investments lhere and trade possibilities climate lures canadians to the caribbean while hawaii long a favorite winter resort with well- todo westerners is now growing in favor with eastern ers as well there is one disquieting factor in the surveys the fact that canadians spend more than other people on travel outside their borders indicates perhaps that they dont spend as much on travel in their own country too bad there isnt a survey which would give details on this important aspect of canadian life sunday school lesson civil defence in rural areas 10th in a ries of 21

his retreats and it was here that peter made his great confession the other caesarea was o the shore of the mediterranean about mid way between joppa and mount carmel the herods had a home here and it was here too that herod antipas died a hor rible death after he had killed james the brother of john and attempted to bring peter to jud gment at caesarea also paul and his company landed on their way to jerusalem and here ag- abus warned him of the impris who stand and wait three centuries ago the english poet john milton realized that his eyesight was failing rapidly he continued to perform his official duties and for a while hoped that thevenot an eminent french oculist might restore his eyesight in this he was bitterly disappointed and there are few passages in all literature more thrilling than those in which this valiant heart accepted his fate before the final interview with thevenot he wrote whatever ray of hope there may be for me from the famous physician i prepare and compose myself accordingly my fre quent thought is that since many days of darkness are destined for everyone my darkness by the singular kindness of god will be amid rest and studies and the voices and greetings of my friends have been much easier to hear because of this verily god looks out for me and provides for me leading me forth with his hand through my whole life 1 shall willingly if it be his will give my eyes their long holiday after he knew that there was no hope whatever and that blindness would be his lot for the remainder of his life he wrote yet i argue not against heavens hand or will not bate a jot of heart or hope but still bear up and steer right onward miltons magnificent fortitude in the face of adverse cir cumstances has encouraged thousands to endure suffering with courage his blindness though it must have been a blow at the time at least gave him leisure to think in solitude about some great subjects which had his eyesight remained perfect he might not have felt he had time to study while he did not live in direst want it is evident that during the last fourteen years of his life he knew poverty as well as persecution he had inher ited very little from his father had failed to get the inheritance fromhis first wife had lost almost all the money he had loaned to others and by an accident his house was burned it seemed as if one calamity heaped upon another until in obscurity and loneliness he produced his great works during the first great war two young mechanics enlisted in the canadian army w ith all the enthusiasm of youth they were keen to go overseas but weeks and then months passed and they were given work around an airdrome making and repairing machines they saw hundreds of other young men don uniforms and go to the front while they chafed and bitterly complained their resentment reached the ears of a hih official who had them brought before him and listened to their story he asked them why they had enlisted they wanted to serve their country very well then he told them that their presence overseas could made little difference to the outcome of the war two soldiers more or less was not a matter of great consequence but their unusual mechanical skill was most invaluable at the airdrome of ten times more valuable than their presence at the battlefront could possibly be in short if they really wanted to serve their country best they could do it by doing the less spectacular thing remaining at home making and repairing airplanes several years ago a wellknown book bore the title ten pivotal figures of history in it the author selected ten persons who towered above all others in their gniignce but these estimates wore at best only guesses that saying of jesus many that are first shall be last and the last

that the gentiles had also received the word of god to those hebrew believers it really was startling news that the gospel had been preached to and accepted by gentiles to some it may have j been good news but to others it was utterly shocking i they had not been delivered from their exclusivcness verse 2 and they that were of the circumcision contended with him the phrase they that were of the
