a solemn theme indeed with which we are now to be occupied who can portray adequately the perils of rejecting christ god has used some of the most terrible fig ures imaginable to warn us of tho dire fate that awaits the one who spurns his grace and refuses the saviour the fruitless fig tree cursed by jesus represented the religious nation which bore no fruit for god and so was rejected and has been as it were dried up from tho roots ever since the parable of the two sons contrasts tho legal selfright eous leaders of the jews who pre tended to an obedience they did not carry into execution with poor sin ners both of tho jews and gontiles who have hoard and obeyed tho word of the truth of the gospel that of the vinoyard tells of gods care for and patience with his earth ly people until they fulfill their own scriptures in rejecting his son tho story of the marriage feast em phasizes tho same truth and shows how the door of faith was to be opened to the gentiles but warns against mero profession which can only mean judgment at last as in the case of the man who refused the wedding garment the historical setting events were moving on rapidly to that hour for which jesus came into tho world john 127 it was on monday of passover week that tho lord cursed tho fig tree and uttered tho parables recorded in these chapters verse by verse matt 2123 a certain man had two sons they portray two types of men those who give lip service and those who are genuino in their interest in spiritual realities verse 29 he said i will not but repented in this lad we see the willful son persisting in disobedience until subdued and brought to repentance grace verse 30 he answered i go sir and went not this bad been the history of the legalists in israel from that day when at the base of sinai they said all that the lord hath safckwill we do and be obed ient exod 247 but whose after- course was one of insuhjection to god throughout rom 224 verse 31 the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of god before you it is the selfconfessed sinners who feel their need of grace and who turning to god in repen tance enter through new birth into the kingdom john 33 5 verse 32 john came in the way of righteousness he came proclaiming the righteous demands of god upon his creatures and call ing those who had failed to attain to this standard to repentance the legalists turned indifferently away but needy sinners obeyed verse 33 a certain household er which planted a vineyard the householder was god himself the vineyard was israel isa 517 the husbandmen were the leaders in judah who were responsible to guide the people aright verse 34 he sent his servants these were the prophets who came from time to time as jehovas re presentatives to press his claims upon the people verses 35 and 36 beat one and killed anothtr and stoned another thus had israel and judah treated those who came to them in the name of the lord acts 752 verse 37 he sent unto them his son how vividly does this portray the grace of god in sending the lord jesus he was in palestine as the sent one of the father john 638 72s 20 but he well knew they would spurn him as they had perse cuted the prophets that went before verse 38 this is the heir come let us kill him the rejection of christ by his own people was the fullest possible expression of the natural heart moved by satanic malignancy toward the god of all grace acts 223 verse 39 they caught him and slow him it is useless to try to ab solve the leaders in jewry of the crime of delivering our lord up to death 1 thess 22 1415 actu ally it was tho gentiles who cruci fied him but potentially it was tho jews who killed him both are imp licated in the greatest crime in all history the murder of the christ of god acts 42g 27 verse 4 0 what will he do unto those husbandmen forseeing their treatment of himself jesus put tho question directly to those who had followed the parable thus far he would have them pronounce their own condemnation verse 41 he will miserably de stroy those wicked men without realizing it they declared what god was about to do their words were fulfilled in the destruction of jerus alem and the setting aside of tho jew in favor of tho nations of tho gentiles verse 42 tho stone which the builders rejected jesus called their attention to the definite pro phecy of psalm 11822 he himself was the rejected stone but in his resurrection god was to make him the head of tho corner in the new temple of living stones he was abou to erect verso 43 the kingdom of god shall be taken from you and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof israel after was to he put aside the kingdom for which they had waited so long was to be lost to them forever a new and elect na tion a regenerated israel shall possess the kingdom eventually meantime tho grace of god is going out to tho gentiles past days in pickering practically nothing is known of the school life in the town ship of pickering until the per iod of the thirties the first schools were rough log struc tures crudely chinked and plas tered with unplaned plank floors and absolutely devoid of maps globes and all modern apparatus the desks always homemade usually ranged around the walls and the pupils sat on backless benches facing them the centre was occupied by a big box stove about which someimes when the seats around the walls were all filled other benches were placed for the smaller children the first school house at cherrywood ss7 was built some time before 1850 it was a long building and stood on the present school lot

school was a building which stood on the nw corner of lot 20 con 8 then the hamilton farm in the early part of 1848 patrick sheriff was the teacher here he was followed by william gregg he seemed to succeed fairly well for a time but in november 1849 the trustees who were david strachan robert pater- son and robert mcfarlane re solved that mr gregg be in formed that the trustees have had several complaints laid against him for inebriety and that he be requested to be more on his guard soon after he took his departure to markham the trustees advertised in the globe at a cost of 3s 4d for a teacher and engaged hiram smith and later william smith at a salary of 50 250 in 1856 it was agreed to contract with j c michell to build a new school for 200 on village lot 36 some of the teachers who occu pied the position of claremont school teachers over these years were alex beaton p a swit- zer frank mitchell a thom son sg brown and miss smith er eddy and mrs eddy ae torrie and miss little
