eight to twelve pages weekly circulation 1850 copies subscription rates per year in advance in canada 200 in usa 250 a v nolan son publishers notes and comments dangerous apathy recent municipal elections have shown a continued de crease in public interest the financial post aptly points out in toronto for instance only something like 20 pc of the eligible voters took the trouble to go to the polls and the record is all too typical of all larger centres while there is an axiom that electors get the kind of government they deserve it is most fortunate that in general electors are getting better government than their present conduct deserves most canadian municipalities have the good fortune to have reasonably efficient administrations which have been doing a noteworthy job in reducing tax rates and cutting down their funded debt so that their communities will be in better shape to meet postwar conditions but how long such government can continue in the face of such public apathy is a question to be seriously considered spend a little save a little with the shop keeper running out of many staple goods with butter rationed and beef and canned goods next on the list of rationed goods there has arrived a time in our history when people never had more to spend and so little to spend it on at that we have a greater choice than our great grandfathers ever dreamed of but the thing we ought to remember is that there is still all we need and the wise ones will save their surplus money for a less favorable time of employment every employable man and woman should put away part of his or her savings and if we do this the next depression will be farther away than it might be if we adopt the policy of spend all as you go a school for farmers this thursday and friday a short course is being held in stouffville on farm mechanics a similar course will be held at buttonville next monday and tuesday these courses all over ontario covering the 28 counties will do much to increase the value and efficiency of the farmer and his machinery it is one of the best lines of work earned on by the agricultural departments how many young fanners know how to splice a rope properly many of the older ones do not know either well this is just one of the many things taught in the brief space of time allotted to the school common repair troubles on the farm will be taken up while farmers will discuss promptness in order ing machine parts that cannot be readily purchased so that there will be no holdup next spring when it is time to go on the land the large number of short courses held will waken a universal interest among the fanners in machinery and farm mechanics generally any fanner with even a spark of ambition will want to hear the discussions at some of these sessions they run from 10 in the morning until 4 in the afternoon and it will not be surprising if stouffville meetings show an atten dance greater than any other place in the county 50 miles to the gallon raincoats without rubber and 50 miles to the gallon are at least two of the things that may become common after the war they are now facts to the army forces thousands of yards per day of a new material is being turned out at the cil plant in new toronto but it is going into rain coats for the army the 50 mile a gallon gasoline is going to the airplanes under the pressure of war necessity indeed becomes the mother of invention the needs of today are compressing into the space of v months chemical developments which might in the less demanding times of peace have taken years to realize today we produce to destroy but to morrow we shall again produce to build declared one of americas outstanding research chemists the other day outlining some of the scientific revolutions that are al ready under way he told that seven times as much aluminium will be produced by the end o 1943 than was available in 1939 after 50 years of development better fuels for our fighter and bomber planes have resulted in an octane that drives cars 50 miles on a gallon the chemist sees the present motor as out of date on the subject of motors he spoke of sealed cooling systems now used in aviation at half their present weight which with increased power fuels may yield 50 miles to the gallon the high pressure synthesis of ammonia one of the major chemical exploits of the century will mean entirely new capacities in the fields of chemical fertilizers for the farmei new and versatile plastics will be available on a scale beyond all previous conceptions from chemistrys building bricks will come unbreakable glass that will float wood that wont burn laminations of plastics and wood that will compete with the older structural materials hosiery and other textile materials from coal air and water shoes that contain no leather window screens that contain no wire and machinery bearings that contain no metal magnesium which a few years ago was a structural curi osity is now recovered from sea water by a chemical pro cess and is today being used in the construction of fighter planes and after the war the production of this jightest of all structural metals will be more than double the alumin- ium output in 1939 sunday school lesson leon for january 17 jesus wixxixq souls golden text he that reapeth receiveth wages and gathereth fruit unto life eternal v john 436 the

her longing soul and he led her to repentance concerning the past and to implicit confidence in himself for the future she saw in him a prophet who bad revealed the hidden sins of her life and a saviour who met every yearning de sire of her poor famished soul do not pass over the early part of the chapter in verses 1 to 26 we have one of the most touching and in structive records mn the bible he who would be used of god to win the lost may well ponder this won derful dialogue and note how wisely the blessed lord met this womans need and overcame her prejudices he was willing to receive of her a despised samaritan in order that she might be prepared to receive from him the promised messiah the giver of life and everlasting blessedness when her own heart and conscience had been probed to their depths and she had trusted christ for herself she hastened back to the village to tell others of the one who sat on the curb of jacobs well verse by verse john 427 his disciples marvelled that he talked with the woman to these men jealous of their masters reputation it seemed strange that he should give so much time to a woman of so dis reputable a character she was not only a despised samaritan hut evi dently of notoriously evil life but it was to save such that the lord jesus came verse 2s the woman then left her waterpot the thirst of her soul quenched with the hying water she forgot her wateipot for love of him and hastened away to cany the good news to her townsfolk verse 29 is not this the christ with holy enthusiasm she told how she had found one who had torn off the veil that hid the sins of the past and revealed to her the true condition of her life how could he who had done this when he had never seen her before be other thaiutlle promised christ that is theexpected messiah verse 30 they went out and came unto him so well did she do her part that the men to whom she spoke hastened out to the well to see and hear him of whom they had heard for themselves verse 31 his disciples prayed him master cat busied about temporal things a hasty meal had been prepaied to which appar ently the lord jesus paid no at tention so absorbed was he in the salvation of this sinful woman verse 32 i have meat to eat that ye know not of the allen grossing passion of his soul was do ing the fathers will in saving the lost verse 33 hatli any man brought him ought to eat so in quired the perplexed disciples one of another they as yet know nothing of that passion for souls which supersedes all other con siderations verse 34 my meat is to do the will of him that sent me and to finish his work it was for this purpose he came into the world omatt 202s and he would never be satisfied until he could say 1 have finished the work which thou gavest ine to do john 174 it was the joy of his heart to do the fathers will even though it meant going to the cross to redeem man kind and to glorify the father in the scene where he had been so terribly dishonored verse 35 lift up your eyes and look while they could see the growing grain all about them it would be some months yet before the harvest would be ready for reaping but he saw all about him the ripened fruit waiting for spirit ual reapers who had opened eyes and burning hearts he would have the disciples contemplate the wait ing throngs in such need of the gospel message that spurred on by n holy zeal such as that which was consuming him they too night go forih to win souls verse 36 he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice to gether for thoe who labored the old h towft by stanley

canada are asked to produce in 1943 to take care of our contract for bacon for britain and have enough left over for ourselves the 25 pc increase being asked for in ontario is veiy small compared with the increase being undertaken in the western provinces saving eveiy pig of the young litters would go a long way to in- ciease our share and this can largely be done by providing clean diy and

hundieds of piglets york county farmei s in the first nine months of 1942 shipped over five thousand less hogs than in the same period of 1941 a reduction of almost 6 with plenty of feed and the strong demand there has been for bied sows lately this con dition should be more than reversed this year however speaking of feed there is one thing to be guarded against by all hog feeders namely feeding to make the hogs over weight and over finished already the market is getting too many of these and the people of britain do not like paying bacon prices for ifat pork that renders out a lot of

who did not use these two coupons before the expiry date jan 3 i likewise consumers were warned by the ration adminsitration of wartime prices and trade board that if they did not use the two ex pired coupons while they were valid they should detach and destroy them before presenting their ration books at the store to buy butter on coupons no 3 and 4 this warning resulted from re ports that some retailers when sell ing butter on coupons nos 3 and 4 which are good from jan 4 to jan 17 aie also taking coupons nos 1 and 2 to which they have no right iretailer replace their stocks of butter by turning in coupons to the amount of their replacements the ration administration pointed out that if retailers collect the nos 1 and 2 coupons without selling butter they obtain an illegal stock of

prophets and holy men in past yeais had given out the word of god in due time christ came and he commissioned his apostles to continue the great work of calling the nation of israel fust and the gentiles later on to heed the mes sage of grace verse 39 many believed for the saying of the woman such is the power of fervent testi mony this redeemed woman he- came an evangelist to the men of sychar and through her witness many came to trust in the saviour for themselves veise 40 the samantans besought him that ire would tarry with them so eager were these people of a despised race to hear more and to know him better that they pleaded with the lord jesus christ to remain among them he therefore stayed on for two days instructing them further in the way of life verse 41 many more believed because of his own word these had not been influenced particularly by the woman to whom he had reveal ed himself at the well but they were ready to hear his own mess age and faith came by
