In-.L-1 1 * Prof. Leitch i A No matter what has happened in thepway of recasting values, there never was a time when agriculture, , justified the highest faith as it does! , today, declared Prof. Leitch of the _ O.A,C., who appeared as a substitute , for the Hon. Manning Doherty.' , Farming has gone through-the price crisis `and money crisis better than` , any other industry because of the ; stability of farming which makes up , for the fact that it is not as great a . success from the viewpoint of dollars- , and cents. Except for the period previous to 1890, the farmers have not passed through such a crisis as. , that since October, 1920. They have come through a situation that has not ;seriously affected those A that were solidly established. They have stood it better thanthe businessmen and the latterhave not reached the bot- tom yet, though the farmers are pre tygwell through. 'Judged -by the dolla s, farming may not seem a suca j cess; yet it has ingportant advantages, j two of which are sec`-. urity of invest- ; ment and assurance,-`of employment, , whereas _in thecitiestoday there are 5 tens of thousands worrying about. un- employment. The farmer has no such worry or that his family `shall suffer ' want. Having greater opportunities for saving, the farmers can save out . of small net incomes larger sums than -` other people, in towns can on larger 3 incomes, and so the farmers as a . whole arebetter off than the great I F 5"" ' \ T.urnig for a moment to the Hy- dro-Rad al. controversy, the speaker declaretg that the Drury Government had ius ified its existence by putting` the lid down hard and tight on`H.vdro Radials.

II To be steadfast the rst thing men 3 need is to get hold of the old doc- ' trines, the great fundamentals of our 5 faith. We follow Christ because He :;has taught us certain greathruths. H. What they are we should know. Be- 5lIief in the resurrection has a great, Ieffect on national life. For lack of `pit men and nations have lived and "died like dogs. This belief dignies, ' our lives and raises them to a higher` _plane, so christian nations dominate - the thinking and activities _. of the `- world. We are being challenged on the fundamentals and we have not ; the men of the rank and tile to do the ._ work our fathers did for`the faith. . Surveys recently taken have disclos- led the appalling discovery that the _ christian people of - Canada and the United States do `not know the fund- amental truths. ' There is more religg ` ion in Canada than ever but it has ` `never been challenged as today. The `situation is a great appeal to men--w !especially between 20 and 40---to get their brains down to study the reason [for the faith that is in them. There iis no danger of. losing christianitv `out of Canada, but the fear is that lthe great testing time will nd chris- tians not sufficiently anchored to and energized by truth to adequately function. V Every great movement making for the betterment of the race has been energized by great con- f viction regarding man and God. We must get to know why we believe ` and let these convictions energize in 1 our souls. 4 1 1 or 1 I i u .- - ... 1 -..---- ..-v-u .a.v uv LII 1111165.

Univ V; \r v unsuuo Self-interest divides the world into classes. The only cure for the sel- sh heart is union with Christ who l I igave Himself for the world. What the world needs is not more brains; `but more hearts---'hearts purged of` self and united with the great heart of Christ. Were each to be thus rid of self and` to do his own particular daily duties as the work of the Lord,~! then would the great world problems be" solved and the world` won for Christ. I the Lord? Not simply the ordinary church work; this is but preparatory for the real work. The work of the Lord is not a Sunday's job but the work of life according to the view- point of the Lord. God is interested in every step of man's pro,9,`L'ess--in his intellectual, social, moral and re- ligious development. It is His Work. Every man who is doing an honest day s Work, thinking of his conscience and the character of his product, is on the Lord s job. One hasn't to quit his day s duties to. do the work of the Lord. The one man the Lord has no use for is the man who slacks on his job. The world needs men who put conscience into the ordinary day s work. How can we expect to p get respect for the christian faith if those who profess it most will not put honesty into their every-day duties? Not by preachers and professional `christians will the world be saved but i What is meant by the work of by getting men to view their common ` tasks, as God views them.

Edgar Evans, M.P.P., devoted most of his short address to the roads question. Of the provincial high- ways, there is 55 miles in Simcoe County, which is to be,built "in a style similar to that now` seen on upper Yonge St. It is not the inten- tion to pave all the 55 miles, but even if this were done, the county's share would not be over seven-tenths` of a mill per annum, and this on an assessment of $5000 would mean'only i $3.50. When this is done there will . be a real road, something that we have never had. The upkeep will be small compared with past mainten- ance, which has been enormous. Motor licenses will take care of the maintenance, he declared, and let the farmers with their small cars get right after the Minister and see that A the owners of big cars are made to pay their proper share, of which they are not now paying 'one-quarter. There has been much talk about the widening of the roads, but this is absolutely "necessary to take care of the traffic. Concerning some of the local critics of road expenditure. he said that they were not. backward in pressing upon the Dept. the tak- ing overof an additional 50 miles of roads in Simcoe and Dufferin. The present minister, he asserted, has done more for the rural people than had any of his predecessors. Compton J effs C. B.
