twelve pages average circulation 1500 copies subscription rates per year in advance in canada 5200 in usa 5250 a v nolan son publishers notes and comments gasoline rationing providing the new gasoline rationing policy is admin istered equitably canadians will take the restrictions with out grumbling if it is necessary they will give up entirely for the duration of the war but they demand equal treat ment and oil controller cottrelles main job between now and april 1 is to ensure that they get it it is general knowledge that there have been some preposterous claims made for special consideration in rationing treatment people who could easily take the train the bus or walk have applied for preferred catergories apparently they are not interested at all in the vital necess ity of conserving gasoline for the war effort but only in trying to get as much as possible for themselves looking for 300 horses we hear on reliable authority that at least one of the great departmental stores in toronto is painting up all its discarded delivery wagons that have ibeen stored away for some years now or since the horse had been replaced by motor delivery this firm is now looking for 300 horses of a type suitable for delivery work this situation will be multiplied all over canada and as a result horses should be a good price in fact they have improved over recent weeks as is shown by the farm stock sales prices are bound to be upward and the farmer who is well stocked with any kind of good serviceable animal will reap a good price the question of higher feed prices will also interest our farmers stouffville went over the top with a black eye the village of stouffville had good reason to complain when the victory loan figures were published last week in all the county papers showing the contributions by town ship town and village with every municipality mentioned excepting stouffville for some reason or other the village and the township of whitchurch were linked together as one municipality with an objective of 175000 the amount subscribed actually reached 219450 and it can be reliably stated that 90000 of this amount was subscribed by resi dents of the village which when compared with other places of similar size the amount was an outstanding contribution i the total amount subscribed by stouffville and whit church should have been earmarked as the contribution of both places and was a shocking oversight that riled a few people to a considerable degree however the main thing is that the objective of the combined municipalities stouffville and whitchurch hand somely exceeded their obpective as will be seen by the fig ures published in this issue we have taken the liberty to attach the name of stouffville along with whitchurch in the official figures but this was not done in any of the other papers of the county as they were not aware of the isitua- tion instruction for living train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it is one of the bits of wisdom in the book of proverbs many parents and educa- tors have come to the conclusion that not enough children are getting instruction in the things of the spirit the remedying of this lack was discussed at a conference spon sored by the international council of religious education recently in chicago we mention this because religious education has been a live issue in ontario and now the department of education has made it possible to teach it in the public schools at least they do not object to ministers entering the schools for this purpose every school in markham town ship is receiving instruction along this line the boston monitor said editorially last week on religious education in the school representatives of a number of protestant denominations analyzed the exper ience with the various reforms of weekday religious instruc tion which have been developed in conjunction with the school programs in widely distributed communities this movement though growing for more than twentyfive years is still in an experimental stage dr roy g ross general secretaiy of the council noted increasing doubts whether a single hour a week at sunday school is sufficient for building strong religious foundations there is in addition the question of children who do not receive that hour a week of instruction in ethics the plan of weekday religious education integrated with the school curriculum but given by the various churches for those of their faith is helping to meet the need yet dr ross appropriately pointed out that the v supplying of this instruction does not relieve schools and homes of their responsibilities in providing a community climate favorable to religious teaching and giving evidence that they believe religion indispensable to successful liv ing the religion that counts and that best serves the child is religion not confined to an hour or two of discussion on sunday pr day but lived and practiced all the time the object of religious instruction should be to bring the influence of reverence increasingly into the lives of school children and to make characterbuilding a part of education south

imatt 2028 we are told that chiist died for our sins according to the scriptures 1 cor 153 christ died that is history for our sins that is the central doctrine of giace eie he left the glory that he had with he father before the world was john 175 he said lo i come to do thy willo god psa 407 8heb 109 the will of god to which he referred specifically was the settling of the sin question he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself heb 926 voluntarily he put himself at the disposal of sinful men that this will of his father might be can led out john 1431 no one took his life from him he laid it down of himself john 101s all was foreknown and predetermined though this did not lessen mans guilt in rejecting him acts 2 23 he sought to prepare the minds of his followers beforehand that when they saw him die their faith might not fail verso by verse mark 827 whom do men say that i am the question was put to his disciples in order to lead up to a definite confession on their own part of his messlahship and divine sonship as they moved about they heard many people discussing jesus and undoubtedly they had often de bated in their own hearts the things that were said verse 28 they answered john the baptist but some say ellas and others one ot the prophets herod we know goaded by a guilty con science felt suro that jesns was john i jj others shared would behe had come into the world to die while his death v be the manifestation of mans bitter hatred to god 4 was also to be the supreme expiession of gods love to man this was to be followed by the physical resurrection of the body of jesus from proof that redemption was accomplished and so the be liever might be justified from all things veise 32 peter took him and began to rdbuke him he who so short a time before had confessed jesus as the christ the son of the living god now ventured to rebuke him as though he were a discourag ed man and speaking from the stand point of one crushed and disappointed by the continued opposition of his foes verse 33 get thee behind me satan the lord at once recognized in peters foolish though wellmeant words the voice of the adversary seeking to turn him aside from the cross where he was to die as the supreme sacrifice for sin his sharp rebuke silenced the blundering apostle but neither peter nor tho rest really entered into the revelation given verse 34 let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me a man carrying a cross was a man going out to die the true dis ciple of jesus is one who is prepared to refuse to own the claims of self and is ready to die daily for his masters sake 1 cor 1531 to deny oneself is more than to be self- denying or unselfish it means the utter setting aside of the selflife that chiist alone may be
