every thursday at stouffville ontario subscription kates per year in advance in canada 200 in ujsa s260 a v nolan son publishers notes aad comments this oldfashioncd winter old ontario is suffering from what is generally known as an oldfashioned winter and we are beginning to appreciate the vital importance of transportation and com munication facilities rural people realize how inconvenient it is to be deprived of a rural mail service and how upset ting it is when supplies cannot be brought in or product taken out this in turn disturbs the whole economy of vil lages towns and cities for the flow of food products is interrupted and raw material for processing comes forward scantily or not at all township councils are finding their plowing equipment is too light for the task assigned to them and that heavierand sturdier trucks are needed if real service is to be rendered it has been many years indeed since ontario roads were so thoroughly obstructed hy snow and transportation on sideroads and concessions so badly paralyzed only a spell of mild weather will relieve the situation and improve transportation so old ontario can get back to the customary way of living it is indeed an oldfashioned winter and we have a new style of living and doing business this creates a con flict and as usual nature wins mants claim that the directive is aimed at or against the distribution of printed copies of speeches by the prime minister of canada saturday night continues prior to this event we were under the impression that the schools of ontario were under the control of their re spective school boards and that the work of the depart ment was confined to the enforcement of certain educat ional standards certainly the department does not appoint the principals nor can it we fancy dismiss them we are wondering what would happen if some principal imbued with a passion for local autonomy and supported therein by his school board were to ignore this directive and distri bute some unauthorized material would the principal be dis missed would the school district lose its provincial grant would the teachers who accepted the distributed matter be arrested what action would be taken by the provincial police would any teachers certificates be cancelled would the board be summoned to appear at queen park what would happen l tire hopes blasted hopes for anjncreased civilian tire ration in canada during the coming year have been dealt a knockout blow by the upsurge of war demand in the united states states- the ottawa correspondent of the the financial post crux of the matter is the alarming rate at which tires are wearing out behind the battlefields in europe as one observer puts it tires are ploughing through mud satu rated with shell fragments that are chewing them up thus within recent weeks us authorities have order ed new plant extension which will military tire production in that country more than 60 per cent at the same time an urgent plea has been made to canada to increase production in this country- and step up canadian surplus for use by the united nations pool a tea tempest toronto saturday night while admitting that its knowledge of the matter is gained totally from newspapers favorable to the ontario government says that principals of- schools in the province are required to prevent the distri bution in their schools of any printed matter sent to them without the departments authorization and the infor- the burning question a letter from a toronto brokerage firm chburgess co received a few days ago provides some real provoc ative thought and we pass it on to our readers because it rather contains a lot of truth about mr john public as he passes in view before us the letter reads in part did you ever watch crowds at a busy corner and wonder what they all do for a living- they must be fed clothed sheltered warmed transported entertained as well as governed the people have to work at spmething and are consumers or users of all the foregoing while the production of food is still the most im portant factories mines transportations entertainment and government give more employment than the farms of the country transportation entertainment and government are not producers of wealth the farms mines and factories are yet a purely agricultural country is considered a back ward country the burning question before the people of so many countries just now is how the needs of the people can best be supplied whether by individual enterprise or through one body representing all the people jf it were not for the weaknesses of human nature the latter might possibly be the better method but human nature is the same as always by harnessing natural desire for gain and possessions to private enterprise and having the government act as a re feree for fair play most of our wants can be provided in greater quantities with less cost those things we actually need probably cost less than those which we want for instance a quart of milk delivered at your door costs lie while a quart of pop costs 30c and some other beverages many times as much and people stand in line for hours to get them yet the milk is the most necessary and costs more to produce the advocates of government ownership emp hasize the profits that private enterprise makes rather than cost but private enterprise can produce articles at less cost to consumer than governments can and still make a fair profit ah american industrialist in russia found that it took five times the man to do the same job as in america however they worked

golden text blessed are tlicy which arc persecuted for righteous ness sake for thcirs is the king- v dom of heaven matt 5 10 r the lesson as a avhole approach to the lesson n in the socalled sermon on the m6unt our lord was- not preaching the gospel but he was setting forth the- principles of his king dom- which should guide the lives of all who profess to be his dis- ciples in other words this is the law of the kingdom the observ- ance of which must characterize its loyal subjects as they wait for the day when the king himself shall be revealed throughout it recog nizes the existence of definite op position to his rule but those who own his authority are called upon to manifest the same meek and lowly spirit that was seen in ilim while in the days of his humilia- tion here on earth the epistle of james answers very closely to the teaching we have here set- forth he calls it the perfect law of lib erty because it is that which is becoming to the new nature receiv ed when one is born of god for the natural man this ser- mon is not the way of life but rather a source of condemnation for it sets a standard so- high and holy that no unsaved person can by any possibility attain to it- he who attempts it will soon realize his utter helplessness if he be honest and conscientious he must look elsewhere in the scriptures for the gospel which is the dynamic of god unto salvation to all who believe rom 116 the keenest intellects on earth have recognized in the sermon on the mount the highest ethical teaching to men and have praised its holy precepts even when conscious of their inability to measure up to its standards verse by verso matt 53 blessed are the poor in spirit these are the men and women who recognize the fact that they have no spiritual assets they confess their lost condition and so rely upon divine grace verse 4 blessed are they that mourn the vefy sorrows men are called to pass through prove a means of blessing if- they know the god of all comfort 2 cor 1 3 who binds up broken hearts psa 34 18 and makes our griefs to be come the means of pur growth in grace when we trust his love and rest in the realization that all things work together for the good of his own rom 828 verse 5 blessed are the meek theworld admires the pushing self- assertive man jesus christ was meek and- lowly in heart those who partake of his spirit are the ones who get the

hunger and thirst after righteousness such hunger and thirst such deep earnest desire gives evidence of the new life these desires are not given to mock us satisfaction is the prom ised portion of all who thus yearn after god in whom alone righteous ness is found verse 7 blessed arc the merci ful to those who show mercy mercy will be extended- this is a law of the kingdom the hard implacable man who deals in stern justice alone will be dealt with in the same way when failure comes into his own life verse 8 blessed are the pure in heart purity is singleness of purpose the pure in heart are those who put gods glory above all else to such he reveals him self they see his face when others only discern his providential deal ings i verse 9 blessed are the peace makers strife and division are works of the flesh gal 519 20 sowing discord among brethren is one of the things that the lord hates prov 61619 we are com manded follow after the things that make for peace rom 14 19 in doing this we manifest the divine nature as children of him who is the god of peace rom 15 33 verse 10 blessed are they which are persecuted for righteous ness sake this clearly intimates that the instruction here set forth is intended not as many have in sisted- for the millennial kingdom of christ for then there will be no persecution for the sake of right eousness but for the disciples of christ during the time of his re jection when his followers are ex posed to the hatred of a godless world verse 43 it hath been said thou shalt love they neighbor and hate thine enemy the scriptures of the old testament plainly com- manded the former but it was rabbinical tradition that added the latter of these sayings possibly basing it on such passages as deu teronomy 23 6 and some of the im precating psalms psa1379 verse 44 but i say unto you speaking as the sent one of the father the lord jesus christ cor rected the faulty position of the rabbis and set forth his perfect law of love even for ones enemies by doing them good and praying for them we overcome the evil in a christlike way verse 45 that ye may be- the children of your father which is in heaven that is as we obey our lords commands as here given we manifest the fact that we are children of the heavenly father who showers his mercies upon just and unjust alike and would have us imitate him verse 46 if we love them which love you what reward have ye even the most blatant world- ing loves his own and can appreci ate those who show appreciation of him but those who follow the lord are to love all men even those who by bitter opposition would make life miserable if they could- verse 47 if ye salute your brethren only do not even the publicans so it is a small thing if christs disciples show only the same interest in others that men engaged in the most despicable call ings evidence publicans were de tested by the jews they were tax- gathers of israel who bought their offices from the roman govern ment and farmed the taxes ex torting everything possible from their own countrymen and fatten ing upon the proceeds after turn ing over only what was obligatory to the assessor appointed by the state yet these gave recognition to their own brethren verse 48 perfect even as your father is perfect this is per fection in the sense of the complete absence of partiality thus imitating him who is no respecter of persons acts 1034 but who lavishes his favors upon just and unjust alike the heart of the ijcsson gods choicest blessings are for those who manifest the same spirit of reverence for god meekness and compassiorrfor others which were seen in all their fullness in our blessed lord as he walked this earth in the days of his flesh heb 5 7 that which is beyond the reach of the natural man is fulfilled in those who have received a new life and nature through trusting in christ as their saviour no adverse circumstances can disturb the serenity of those who know the lord and who acknowledge his
