gets a new plant premier george drew officially opened hydros new sixinilliondollar generating station at decew falls last friday noon when he sef in motion a unit which added 65000 horsepower to the power resources of southern ont ario in making this announcement dr thomas h hogg chairman and chief engineer of the hydroelectric power commission of ontario pointed out that the water which will drive the turbine and generator at this important development comes from the distant albany river water- shed in the lonely wilderness of northern ontario 1000 miles away this water he explained has been made available as a result of the commissions long lac and ogoki diver sions the former was completed in 1939 while construction of the ogoki project was started in december of 1940 and completed three months ago the combined average flow of 5000 cubic feet per second from these diversions mr hogg stated makes poss ible the development of 36000 additional horsepower at developed and undeveloped sites between lake nipigoh and the mouthof the st lawrence over a period of time this diverted water will also benefit navigation by deepening shallow channels increase in delinquency may be fought in the schools children some of very tender years running at large after dark are becoming somewhat of a problem in town only last week during a church meeting juvenile pranksters walked boldly into the church on two occasions and turned off the lights this in itself is not very serious but the same youngsters are running over gardens and breaking down hedges causing general destruction in the community after dark other evidences that discipline is on the way out are not lacking at markham fair we saw a mere young ster- 8 or 9 years old refuse a handful of silver from his father with the pert statement whats the big idea dad well dad pulled out a roll of bills and gave the child 5 since the father holds a high position in canadian life the case is an impressive example as to the manner in which the youngsters are taking over in the wealthier homes and to the same degree in the average home unionville is calling for the return of the curfew bell and it might be a good thing if all that is told about unionville delin quency is correct the following is a reprint of an editorial from the tor onto evening telegram which discusses- the child delin quency in almost intelligent manner it would probably be a mistake to attribute the prev alence of juvenile delinquency to the war and to hope that after the war conditions in this respect will change again for the better no doubt war influences are contributing factors the absence of many fathers on military duty and the employment of mothers in war work deprive child ren of parental control that should normally have a steady ing effect upon their behaviour but the war is responsible for only a fraction of the lack of parental control which is the root of much of the trouble a commendary reference to premier drews intention to introduce greater discipline into the schools of the province has suggested that much of the present disorder among juveniles is due to the self expression which became somewhat of a fad among educationalists a few years ago there is nothing wrong with self expression in itself so long as it is not allowed to displace that recognition of au thority which is the basis of discipline it becomes a danger when checks upon conduct are removed and the juvenile is allowed to write his own ticket that the self expression movement which entered the schools about the beginning of the century was accompan ied with a relaxing of discipline there can be little doubt the pendulum had swung from the floggings of other years to which nobody wants to return and has travelled too far the juveniles of that day grew up in homes that had known the importance of discipline but today there is a generation of juveniles who may suffer both from an in- adequate acquaintance with discipline at school and from the fact that their parents experienced the same lack that under such circumstances juvenile irregularities should be more frequent than formerly is scarcely surprising premier drews proposal may have valuable results but it will only be in the long term application of his in novation that it will be possible to appreciate these results fully it would be expecting too much to look for an immed iate change in conditions that have been building up over a period of years fruits arrive in canada for christmas fruit cake ingredients used in the

canadian situation comes to us when the employer provided board for the hired man the average wage for help by the day was- 351 in 1343 and 250 the year before no board in 1943 brought 474 as against 315 the year before wages for day help weie highest in ontario but all piovinces showed an up by the month average with board was 6126 at august 15 1943 as against 46 2 same date last year cunent late of wages for farm help more than double that paid in 1940 when the federal minister of agriculture asked farmeis to refrain fiom marketing unfinished cattle during the fall months this year it was because the expected hog out put for the next few months would piobably overtax slaughtering facil ities besides they claim it an un economic practice when there is feed available in the country hog

reminded that the injunction for children to be obedient to their par- ents is the first commandment with piomise this indicates in a special way its great importance longevity in the land given by god to israel was to be the result of filial regard whether parental guidance is spurn ed and children grow up in willfcill- ness and insubjection to those who have been over the path before them the results aie disastrous practically all civilized people lecognize this and even among the most uncultured tribes respect for the judgment of their elders is stiessed in the train ing of children thioughout the en tire bible emphasis is laid upon this phase of our earthly relationships the book of proverbs deals with it in a very special way constantly in sisting on the importance of heeding the instruction of father and mother and dwelling much on the unhappy consequences of disobedience to this law our blessed lord as a child in the nazareth home has set all children an example of subjection to parents he who was over all god blessed forever deigned to enter earthly life as a babe boin of a virgin mother and as he grew in years and in stature he reverenced and obeyed that mother and his foster father joseph thus honoring the biblical conception of ideal home life child ren who profess faith in him should evidence it by following his steps in this as in all else where self- will rules and parental control is ignored or definitely flouted dis aster cannot but follow verso by verse exod 2012 that thy days may be long upon the land this is the promise referred to in the new test ament god set his approval upon filial respect and obedience by pledg ing his word that children who thus rendered honor to their parents would be granied long life in the land given to israel this was part of his covenant with them luke 248 son why hast thou thus dealt with us not understand ing fully the responsibility of the boy jesus to his father god mary and joseph expressed their perplexity at his attitude by this question it was a strange incident in their minds as jesus had always honored them and respected their wishes verse 49 wist ye not that i must be about my fathers business the question implied that to some extent they had failed to- recognize his primary object in coming into the world to do the will of him who had sent him gods authority was paramount verse 50 they understood not the saying neither mary nor jo seph as yet comprehended the true nature of the child committed to their care nor just how he was to respond to the messianic prophecies which he had come to fulfill verse 51 he was subject un to them returning to the city of nazareth jesus as a growing boy became an example for all children who profess to love god by his per fect subjection to those who had the care of that home here as in all else he was the slnlessly obedient one mark 76 this people honour- eth me with their lips but their heart is far from me it was spec ally in connection with the enforce ment of the instruction given in the law regarding obedience to and hon oring of parents that jesus used this quotation from isaiah it is a grave mistake to suppose that god is pleased with us when we confess his word as wholly inspired and worthy of all honor while finding some way of evading strict obedience to what it commands verse 7 teaching for doctrines the commandments of men it is useless to pretend to worship god while ignoring the precepts of his word whether by directly disobeying his commandments or by substitut ing humanly devised teachings for the instruction given in the inspired writings verse s laying aside the com mandment ofgod ye hold the tra dition of men on many points gods plain word was rejected by the legalistic traditionalists of christs day who laid far more stress upon the teachings of certain rabbinical scholars than upon a definite thus saith the lord the same is true of many today who ignore that which is written while putting themselves under bondage to humanly imposed rules and regulations at a recent church trial the writer heard the question asked again and again what does our church discipline say not once did anyone inquire what saith the scripture verse 9 ye reject the command ment of god that ye may keep your own tradition to the average church member the mandates and declarations of leading teachers mean far more than the direct words of the bible yet we profess to be lieve that the bible and the bible continued on next page business directory dental e s barker lds djxs honor
