to 2339 printed text matthew 221522 3440 golden text thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself as thyself ythes 1m sat matt 2239 the lesson as a whole there is vastly more than in struction in the indicated por tion for home reading and class discussion as to good citizen ship and our responsibility to be good neighbors in this section of the gospel our lord lays bare the hidden selfishness and corruption of the human heart and shows how utterly lost and helpless men are apart from divine grace he exposes the hy pocrisy and deceitfulness of the leaders in judaea who were very punctilious

offender against the law of god and their own custom in order that he might be discredited be fore the people and that their own wickedness in rejecting him might be excused but he turn ed the light

forces men to do things his colleagues expressed the hope for an early recovery councillors john rae fred middleton and deputy reeve edgar johnson were present the department of municipal affairs asked for a statement in specting the bond carried for the collector of taxes and the treasurer a good deal of thought was also given to the new accounting system being introduced by the government in future every hour of work done for the township will be paid by individual cheque and this will mean that hundreds more will be issued and endless extra work will be required it was forseen for the treasurer and road superintendent ira stiner from roseville wanted to know what was being done about removing snow from the roads he said that if they were opened for one section all should be treated alike he was informed on the step taken to hire the county plow and was assured all would receive simili ar treatment on the concession lines that is if at all possible the bylaw appointing town ship
