the writer says as a minister of the gospel i am called upon from time to time to conduct funeral services and occasionally assist in the same recently it has been brought to my attention the lack of courtesy and reverance shown by some in dividuals who apparently forget where they are ana what they are there for it does seem perplexing and very sad indeed to hear men dis cussing crops and markets and busi ness and everything under he sun even to the annoyance of the mini ster who is trying to convey a com forting message to the mourners and friends and neighbours gather ed there for the service if the people who are qunty of this arc determined to discuss matters of business surely this is not the place for the same sometimes you can hear their voices outside the win dows and doors of the sad scene of death even above the message of preacher it seems to me instead ot showing respect it reveals a lack true reverence ano also a certain amount of ignorance and disrespect and above all an unchristian act it should not be necessary for me to remind the public what the funeral service is called for it is not a place for social visitation nor a place for business transactions but it is a place where we should go quietly and reverntiy to pay a last respect in regular order and with christian behaviour mr bennetts second budget mutual shoe store tennis and outing shoes mens from

development of canadian economic life but emphasises pro tective features it cannot be said mr bennett has been false to pre election pledges lie lias implement ed his promise of higher protection he has made a beginning on a national fuel policy he lias reduced the income tax although not by much and lie has continued to spend money with all the extrava gance that characterized his plat form promises therein lies the chief weakness of the budget it seos only one way to meet a deficit national revenue namely in creased taxation this years esti mates show a reduction of 37000- 000 but this saving may be drasti cally reduced when the supplemen tary estimates come down on the other hand new taxation is impos ed that is estimated to bring in 594000000 of new revenue add ing 94000000 to federal tax burdens at a time when business is seriously depressed will in it self offset much if not all of the stimulus provided to special interests by new protective proposals claremont rev a
