hordes back to work farmers and townspeople alike are still smarting under the recent abbott budget since it is generally felt for certain that taxes are being imposed on small incomes for another vear in order to be able to make a big showing in 1949 when there is every likelihood of a dominion electon at which time relief will be promised a reasonable reduction in income tax this year would have sent hordes of govern ment salaried individuals back to some productive work instead of being kept at a job on tax forms that is exasper ating to the whole of canada hair cuts and butler the price of a hair cut in alaska is s2 and at first thought the high price almost makes you hold your breath and perhaps a man might feel sorry that he was not born baldheaded however the price of a pound of butter in that northern territory is also 32 so that the barber there could exchange a hair cut for a pound of butter on even terms here in stouffville we may think that hair cuts at 50c are a bit high but the barber couldnt take his 50c to the store and exchange it for a pound of butter by any means for it would fall short by more than twenty cents figure out who is the best off the barber in the far north at s2 per cut or the tonsorial artist down here in ontario at 50c per clip back to the land a serious backtotheland movement is something to be expected within the next few years if it comes it will not be an organized movement it will be the result of some independent thinking by many different persons rich poor and mediumly welltodo who for different reasons will decide that for the one life they have to live the small town or the farm offers a better return in satisfaction than the city can possibly give this is not to prophesy that the cities will become depopulated overnight montreal toronto vancouver winnipeg and the rest will still attract from the country side the same types of girls and boys that have flocked there in the past they will come because some careers require a city atmosphere for both training and practice because there are more opportunities for mak ng a fortune because there is a greater variety of choice in the matri monial field and generally because life in a city is more exciting and therefore more appealing to adventurous youth those who return or emigrate to the countryside from the city will be those who have sampled the metropolitan delights that appeal to them and have calmly decided that they are not worth the trouble they involve the noise traffic smoke and crowds they will decide are things to be avoided and when it comes to theatres and any city convenience you may name it can be had outside the city and for less cost sunday observance the question of sunday observance has been in the news recently following princess elizabeths visit to paris many people in this country felt that criticism directed at the princess by the scottish association of the lords day alliance observance society was rather extreme however in view of this incident it is perhaps of interest to study a little of the scottish background on the subject of the sabbath as given by rev a ian burnett in an article published in st andrews church magazine ottawa my highland grandmother refused to set a fire on sunday the minister recalls it had to be set on saturday night or you went cold until monday morning blacking ones boots was a sin on this day while to whistle even a psalm tune was to tempt the devil yet there was no kinder humbler gentler soul in all the world sunday was precious to her and with a host of other faithfuls she fought hard to keep it holy but she lost out the railway train and the steamboat the motor car and now the airplane have put sunday madly on wheels just over a hundred years ago the presbytery of the church of scotland in the city of glas gow called a special meeting to consider a resolution of the edinburgh and glasgow railway company the second railway to be opened in great britain to run trains on the morning and evening of the lords day what strength and vigor was shown in the counterresolution passed by the presbytery let me quote in part from it for these fathers and brethren showed a spirit which we would do well to emulate the presbytery regard the carrying into effect of this resolution as a flagrant violation of the law of god as expressed in the fourth commandment a grievous outrage upon the religious feelings of the people of scotland a powerful temptation to the careless and indifferent to abandon the public ordinances of grace and most disastrous to the quiet of the rural parishes along the lines of the railway by the introduction into them every sabbath of many of the profligate and dissipated who inhabit the cities of edinburgh and glasgow furthermore the fathers and brethren resolved publicly and privately to warn their flock against travell ing on the lords day and to exhort them to discontenance the company so far as may be in their power while a resolution so sinful in itself and so disastrous in its conse quences is suffered to remain in their minutes that was the spirit one one hundred years ago but in the long run the railways won out and the motor car hurried on the defeat raising the death toll on sundays above that of any other day of the week by putting sunday on wheels we have literally and metaphorically put life beneath the wheels the wheels have become more valuable thaw the lives there in a nutshell is the situation which we face today the desecration of the sabbath has meant the degradation and destruction of man for whom the sabbath was made and that situation had better be stopped before we are all destroyed bv it vktkkax is drovxed while oct fishing virgil seers of point anne ont was one

be sides the dens mentioned above at least three more are known to be located in the unmediatae neigh borhood however cute the puppies may be now one is led to question the wisdom of a law which gives them protection and one is inclined to agree with those who feel that a bounty should be given in grey for the destruction since red fox is so lacking in popu larity at present that the pelts are almost worthless while most farmers wives are not sufliciently bighearted to raise hens for foxes to prey upon 01v so coq to mix a spice cake just add one cup of milk or water to campbells cake mix
