frlonds before a capacity congregation in the united church on sunday morn ing prof tlios mitchell stirred his listeners to keen attention when he declared that our present economic ills were due in no small way to the fact that our cleverness had out run our wisdom the speaker a professor in a boys college at edmonton enjoying a holiday at the old home in iringwood gave apt illustrations on how in this machine age man power has been displaced by mechanical devices mr mitchell said there wasnt much that we could do about correcting the major problems that beset the world today but wo could do something about the little troubles we could be thankful for what we had the happiest people are found among the poor he re minded his audience and further that true happiness should depend on what we are not on what we have look for the sweetening tree besido your spring of bitterness was an illuminating way the speaker admonished his listeners to seek for help close at hand in the midst of tribulation moses ho said provided a splendid bible illustration of this thought the dejected and hopeless travelling israelites cried to him for water and he appealed to god who told him to smote the tree nearby thus at hand he found what he stood in dire need of a more equitable distribution of wealth is a crying need of the day and if properly adjusted will allevi ate much of the present distress he illustrated this point by telling of three small stories bringing in 5900 per month rental why said ho does the owner exact such fabulous rental its because of the pattering feet that pass those premises that make it possible to pay and thus makes the owner wealthy some of that wealth should go bask into society declared the speaker this wealth he said is a social product i am not one whi thinks we should enter tho wild sea of communism said mr mitchell hut rather lets get back to the sermon on the mount and the ethics of christ dealing a blow at those who are forever preaching that war is in evitable he emphatically declared that war is not inevitable if for no other reason than because our natures can be changed the great kelogg pact originated by the us under the late president wilson he believed could bo made effective under president roosevelt it that gentleman would only act it is the duty of every citizen to fight the assumption that war is inevlable it is not so mr mitchell 25 years ago stood as a strong advocate for woman franchise but is frankly disappoint ed things have not grown better although women voters hold the majority and he appealed to them to stand together in a fight for peace he would like to sea formed a nucleus of able men men of the church met together for the study of present day problems thu3 giving leadership instead of an amen to politicians in this way the church would become tho vanguard in the march through this troublesome era some change is coming prophe sied mr mitchell i do not know what it is but i sincerely believe it to be evolutionary and not revolu tionary the municipal council met on monday and struck tho tax rate for 1934 at one half mill below the 1933 rate or at 34 mills reeve harry sanders presided over the assembly all members being present ex cepting councillor ross brown who collapsed during the day from the extreme heat wave and was unable to leaive his bed that night again councillor mervyn watts almost made the second casualty in tho municipal ranks for he too was almost overcome with the oppressive atmosphere and carried on under strain and difficulty the reeve observed that councillor weldon was rather gaunt and advised him to take life a little easier for this member of the board clearly show ed the heavy work of tho past weeks during which time he hadlnoved his store and house effects to new premises the tax rate is headed in the right direction and while half a mill is not a great deal on an individu al tax bill it is much more apprecia ted that an extra halt mill added
