nolan son publishers notes and comments fuel oil crisis this years unprecedented boom in domestic oil furnace installations is bringing sharply higher prices for fuel oil in its wake so great has the demand for fuel oil become the whole canadian refinery business has been thrown out of balance at least temporarily and officials predict price increases in canada up to 15 cents a gallon for fuel oil last weeks price in stouffville jumped from 11 to 12 cents highest price ever charged thus far once the ugly duckling of the refinery fuel oil is now vieing with gasoline for an ever increasing share of the crude oil gallon where once oil companies were glad to get rid of the fuel oil after taking out all the volatile elements they now find they have to produce furnace oil as a product instead of a byproduct lash as deterrent it has been the experience of this as of other lands that armed robbery is stopped most quickly and effectively by more frequent use of the lash to prevent such crime in addition to prison terms the average holdup man is a coward and nothing acts to deter him so fast in this form of flybynight pursuit than the thought that if he is caught in the act he will suffer for it the victoria colonist reminds that it was after the first world war in the period of 1919 to 1925 that this lesson was demonstrated in canada a minor then a greater wave of armed robberies swept the country some police magistrates supported by the senior courts commenced handing out prison terms with whinpings the result was that the crime wave was broken and that armed robbery became a rarity in canada it would seem that conditions similar to 191925 are with us again the same remedy should be applied and as every law enforcement officer knows it will bring the desired results homes for the aged the name house of refuge as applied to homes where hundreds of aged men and women are now spending their last years is to disappear under the terms of a bill introduced in the ontario legislature by hon wm good- fellow minister of public welfare home for the aged is the substitute name and it is indeed a more appropriate one most of the men and women in these homes are there through no fault of their own they have in one way or another made a substantial contribution to the church and community life of canada they have perhaps raised families and endured hardships unknown to their sons and daughters todaythen again under the old age pensior act a majority of them are partially paying their way hon wm goodfellow does well to have the stigma which the name house of refuge suggests removed hush hush weekly press the public schools supporters league has published a double column display in scores of ontario weeklies the past week or two holding up to light the record of the ontario government in its allegedly selling out to the rc church on their demands for financial support for separate schools premier drew the adv says is the worst offender since he bid more for the rc support than any other premier by offering more support than his predecessors to the schools which have caused and still cause so much controversial talk in this province it is a striking fact too that we have not read one editorial or seen any comment on the part of the weekly press on the matter in support or in opposition to the notice of the public schools supporters league it would appear that is is an issue the editors of weekly papers are afraid to take a stand on and so they evade the whole matter by remaining silent the tribune has always maintained that separate schools are not necessary they are trouble breeders and constitute an issue that could split the canadian people some day while we do not aver that protestants are any better living people than roman catholics we do hold that on the whole they live just as good lives and their stand on christianity is quite as high it is all attained without the aid of separate schools and leads to the fair question what better is the rc child for having attended a separate school sacrifice of calvarv the eyes of the christian world were turned towards calvary the heart of the world throbbed anew in the mystery of atonement as consummated in the death of jesus christ it is impossible for us to understand fully the deep significance of the sacrifice made centuries ago by the perfect man it is hard for us to comprehend just why the son of god should have been offered for the sins of the world but we do know that the crucifixion of christ laid the foundation of the mightiest organization that the world has even seen christianity began with the birth of the babe of bethlehem but it became a vital force with the crucifixion and resurrection of our lord a successful life and a natural death of christ would have left its impression upon the world but the years of preparation and the true meaning of his life of service were emphasized by the tragedy on calvary this momentous event followed so soon by the glory- of the resurrection focused the attention of believer and skeptic alike the death of christ was foreordained it was part of the great plan designed for the salvation of mankind and even when we fail to grasp its mysteries we are conscious of the great benefits and the lasting miracle of atonement man feels that he is at one with god that through the m edium of the cross he has attained his rightful heritage of fellowship light and life and so good friday was good indeed despite the sorrow the overwhelming sense of failure and the dis appointment that marked the day on which the saviour of the world died that we might live our capital correspondent written exclusively for the stouff ville tribune by m l schwartz behind the governments latest major step of orderly
