standard time little possibility of reinstating standard time was held out by munitions minister howe when the topic was men- r tioned in the house last week at ottawa mr howe handed out the excuse about the amount of power saved when the country is on fast time an explanation many people feel is just so much bunk wartime industry operates mostly on 24 hr basis hence it could not make much difference there and as for the householder what is saved at one end of the day is lost at the other end- in- the- matter of light burned people who drive by war production plants like ajax and see miles of lights burning all day long are not impres- sed with the plea for saving current workers in these plants talk freely about the waste of current by allowing thousands of lights to remain burning all day fast time is a real hardship in the winter especially for farmers and children going to school because they have to leave their homes in the dark in the summer the nuis ance is not so marked although farmers find they must work by standard time whereas hired help complain and want to abide by fast time which the farmer would gladly do if it were possible fast time is fairly popular

historical accounts of christs physical resurrection from the dead of no other out standing incident in ancient history have we so many unimpeachable records the testimonies of men of probity and integrity who saw heard handed and even ate with the lord after he arose from the deadacts 1 3 232 315 10 4012 the great resurrection chapter in first corinthians gives us the bless ed results of this victory over death and shows how our present salvat ion and the coming redemption of our bodies are alike dependent upon the fact that jesus christ came forth in triumph from the tomb do not omit a careful reading of the entire passage for that whick is set forth in the printed verses for- our lesson today is meaningless unless we see that up on which it is based it is because our lord could not be holden of deathacts 224 that we may have the assurance of our resurrection unto life eternal if we have put our trust in him by resurrection he is declared to be the son of god with power to annul all satans efforts to destroy mankind rom 14 having met our great enemy at the battlefield of calaryhe has rendered him powerless and has has delivered those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage heb 215 do not confound the fear of death with a natural shrinking from dy ing many real believers have been troubled by this who yet have no real dread of death itself for they know him who has said if a man keep my saying he shall never see death john s51 the sting of death is sin as our present les son tell us when the conscience is purged by the precious blood o christ heb 914 that is forever gone verse by verse 1 cor 1511 differeth in glory many scriptures tell us of the varied rewards that will be giv en to the saints who rise in the hr st resurrection all are saved by the same grace through the sacri fice of christ but there will be differences in glory according to the measure of devotion to christ manifested in this scene verse 42 it is sown it is raised the resurrection body will be vastly different from the present body subject as it is to corruption but there will be pos itive identity as indicated by the use of the pronoun itvit is sown it is raised verse 43 sown in dishonour raised in glory our jbodies are ofu en a source of humiliation and grief to us because of many infirmities all the effects of original sin but in the resurrection every mark of the fall will have disappeared and we shall be fully like our lord phil 321 then that which was sown that is buried in weak ness shall be raised in power verse 44 there is a natural body and there is a spiritual bodv the word translated natural is an adjective from the greek word for soul while the term spiritual is an adjective formed from the word for spirit the present body is suit ed to- and largely dominated by the soul the resurrection body will be spiritcontrolled verse 45 the first man adam was made a living soul the last adam a quicking spirit the two adams are the respective heads of the old and the new creations to the first adam god gave life by the divine inbreathing the last adam communicates life to all who bel ieve in his name verse 46 first that which is natural and afterward that which is spiritual again we have two creations the natural and the spiritual the soul dominates the first while the spirit has the uppermost place in the second hence the need of new birth verse 47 the first man is of the earth adam and all his race by natural birth are included in the term the first man the sec ond man is the lord from heaven christ and allwho receive life from him are thus iinked together he is the beginning of the creation of god rev 314 verse 4849 the earthy and the heavenly- adams decendants are all in his image and likeness those who have received life from christ arerenewed after the image of him who created them and some day will be like him in all things verse 50 flesh and blood can not inherit the kingdom of god- blood is the life of the flesh and is for the repair of waste no one can enter the kingdom in its heavenly aspect in a corruptible body verse 51 i shew you a myst ery a mystery is not necessarily something mysterious and hard to untlerstand here it refers to one of gods secrets which- man would never know apart from divine re velation we shall not- all sleep but we shall all be changed sl eep here means die some be lievers will never pass through death but will bo alive when christ returns verse 52 at the last trumn the dead shall be raised in corupt- iblo and we shall be changed it is the trump of god thess

crucial haying and har vesting season according to alex marlaren director of the ontario farm service force activities of the field placement officers have been started at an earlier date than in former years and there are de finite indications that more volun teer farm workers than ever before will be available when the busy season rolls around every possible avenue of farm help is being thoroughly explored and canvassed they claim the farm duty leaves which were in augurated last fall by the armed services will be in operation this year during the whole farming sea son and greater help is expected from that source the compassion ate leave plan by which members of farmers families now in the armed forces can be released for peroids up to six months will also be in effect and should bring an increased amount of experienced help back to the farms the ontario farm service force will concentrate its attention on enlisting tens of thousands of high school students for farm work and the department of education is ready to release students for that purpose after april 2sth providing they have 50 standing on their years work the farm commando service and the farm holiday brigade will be organized on a larger scale than ever farmers can therefore plant their crops in- anticipation of having help available when required but they can cooperate by making their help needs made known as soon as possible requests for help for the busy season can be made now to the ontario farm service force parliament buildings tor onto or to the county agricultural representative

various months during the past year in addition to carrying on their own businesses with all the handicaps they have to contend with and for no fee or commission of any kind and have certainly sold thousands and thousands of dol lars worth in their campaigns must wonder a bit at the claire wallace controversy going on in the newspapers and other places as well over that ladys salary this commentator has been employed- by the canadian gov ernment to encourage the- sale of war saving stamps in a radio pro gram they tell me at a sal ary of 170 per week recently this little wage was raised to 200 per week if some business firm pays miss wallace 200 or 1000 or any other salary per week thats her bus iness and that of the firm from which she receives it but for the people of canada to have to fin ance this kind of drivel and pay for it as well is adding insult to in jury there are hundreds of can adians who have sold stamps and bonds and- bought them too as a patriotic duty and have received nothing for their services and there are hundreds more who wouldi willingly do so in the meantime the peoples hard earn ed taxes are used to- provide the war finance committee with funds

is separated from the body when death and hades re ceive the body and the spirit it looks as though all is over but that is a mistake for christ has abolish ed death for the believer and is alive forevermore rev 118 verse 56 it is a sense of unfor- givensin that makes it hard to die this is accentuated by the law of god which is thus a- ministry of condemnation verse 57 god giveth us the victory through our lord jesus christ death is defeated already through christs resurrection and all his saints share in his victory many will never die at all those who have fallen asleep as to the body throughout all the millennia of earths history will be re deemed from the grave and will be associated with the glorified sav iour at his return verse 5s therefore be ye stedfast because of the
