the tribune stouffville ont thursday january 5 1950 the stouffville tribune established 1888 member of the canadian weekly newspaper association and ontario quebec newspapers association member of the audit bureau of circulations authorized as second class mail post office department ottawa issued every thursday at stouffville ontario in canada 5200 in usa 250 a v nolan son publishers notes and comments something for all a young toronto girl who came from a displaced per sons camp in europe says she is no longer a dp she is an fp a free person which prompts the fort william timesjournal to re mark that it might be a fine idea for all of us to add those letters to our names as a reminder of a precious possession we so often take for granted pork roast pan both disappear somebody with a yen for toothsome vittles went tom the pipers son one better last week tom got a whole un cooked pig and away he run but the modern thief grabbed a cooked pork roast from the back verandah of mrs james hamels residence in kitchener the roast a fivepounder disappeared along with- the enamel roasting pan in which it was reclining some distance away on mill st the roasting pan was located empty police fear the modern tom has probably carried out the next step in the nursery rhyme thats the one where the pig was eat all they hope is that the verses will run clown to the inevitable conclusion tom they point out was beat and he went howling down the street west buys from ontario canada has a big farm implement manufacturing in dustry it is located largely in ontario last year canadian farmers dug down in their jeans to buy 204000000 worth of farm machinery it wasnt all canadian of course but a great part of it was manufactured in canada purchases were up 57411000 over the year 1947 its the west that buys the farm machinery the prairie provinces bought 625 per cent of all the 204000000 of implements bought by canada in 1948 alberta bought 36000000 saskatchewan 46000000 and manitoba 23000000 against 38000000 for the banner province of ontario and 15000000 for quebec and of course the west paid the freight on the implement shipments many times over what ontario and quebec freight charges cost farmers there their tough luck the lesson long since learned by thousands of tax payers that you cant ignore a notice from the income tax department and worse you cannot connive to escape in come tax payment is being driven home at niagara falls fort erie and port colborne the sheriff of welland is simply attaching cars homes and savings bank deposits in one case the sum of 2500 was seized the victims are commuters they work in the united states and dwell in canada they can hardly plead ignor ance of the law which imposes double income taxation they pay uncle sam out of their wages on the other side mr abbott likewise demands his cut on this side even if ex treme measures have to be taken to get that cut but mr abbott cannot garnishee wages made by a canadian worker in new york state i it is said that the canadian income tax department is shooting for a total of 300000 in this area another hard luck case was that of a local retired farmer in stouffville hard working all his days he retired back in war time he had his sale and hoped to live on the savings as anybody would wish to do he paid no income tax and was never bothered by the government after re tiring in town he went to ajax to work and then became entangled with the income department at ottawa result they traced back and assessed the farmer 600 as their cut from his life savings cashed at the sale the indian those who speak of the indian as a member of a van ishing race are entirely off the beam it is interesting to note from government statistics that the red man is on the increase canadas present indian population is about 130000 including 8000 eskimos who consider themselves quite distinct but are legally grouped with the indians this population now has a higher birthrate and a higher deathrate than the rest of canada but the number of births is ahead of the number of deaths it is estimated that the native population is gaining at about 15 per cent per year despite the fact that up to 400 annually are lost by absorption into the general population by enfranchise ment alone there was a time when the native populations were on the decline but the records show that the trend changed in the 1920s the indian is proving a lot hardier than those who counted him out prematurely in the early days of mans sweep across the continent the old home town by stanley vjv- o 1229 poll of editors names mrs drew woman of year the woman of the year in can ada according to a poll of news paper editors conducted by british united press is mrs george drew wife of the leader of the opposition in the federal house their selection paid tribute to the political campaign in which mrs drew accompanied her hus- band from one end of the country to the other speaking at scores of rallies and meeting scores of people personally it paid tribute too to tier accep tance of political defeat and taking her place in ottawa as a gracious hostess mrs drew who was formerly miorenza johnson daughter of edward johnson of the metropoli tan opera and the former vis countess darniero of portugal was picked last year as one of canadas 10 best dressed women but she said on that occasion that she would rather be regarded as a housewife than a clotheshorse she said she dressed on a budget and delighted in good clothes but disliked the time spent shopping to get them other women fighting in the poll were senator cairene wilson donna grescoe violinist barbara ann scott figure skater and margaret munn miss canada of 1919 sunday school lesson lesson for january 8 the church empowered acts 2 141 golden text repent and be bap tized every one of you in the name of jesus christ for the remission of sins and ye shall receive the gift of the holy ghost acts 238 the lesson as a whole approach to the lesson pentecost was one of the feasts of the lord lev 232 15 cele brated annually fifty days after the feast of firstfruits lev 23911 which on the particular year in which christ himself fulfilled the passover type occurred on the day folwing the next sabbath that is the first day of the week counting fifty days from this would bring one to the morrow after the sev enth jewish sabbath and this first day was pentecost it signi fied the beginning of an altogether new period of gods ways with men the setting aside of the old dispensation and the beginning of the new the glorious administra tion of the holy spirit the com forter promised by jesus in john 14 15 and 10 who came in a special way to carry on the work which jesus began to do acts 11 the fifth book of the new testi- iheht is therefore preeminently that of the acts of the holy spirit through certain of the apostles notably peter in the first section and paul in the latter part the historical setting during the ten days interval be tween the ascension of christ and the coming of the comforter the disciples gave themselves largely to prayer and praise acts 114 luke 2452 they spent their time together in a large upper room where they abode and in the courts of the temple we are not told in which of these places they were when the promise of the father was fulfilled most writers suppose the upper room but others have thought they were together in the courts of the temple where jesus so often taught verse by verse acts 214 peter standing up lifted up his voice while all the eleven had their part in wit nessing to risen christ peter stands out prominently as the one to whom the lord had committed the keys of the kingdom here we see him opening the doors of the kingdom to israel as later on he opened the doors to the gen tiles in the house of cornelius verses 15 16 these are not drunken as the apostles pro claimed the gospel in different languages as the spirit gave them utterance their words seemed to those who did not understand these languages like the incoherent speech of intoxicated men this supposition peter repudiated as he drew their attention to a prophecy written centuries before by joel he declared this is that thus identifying the power of the spirit with what joel had predicted i verse 17 in the last days i will pour out my spirit upon all flesh these words await their complete fulfillment in the king dom age what took place at pen tecost was of the same charactei as that which will take place im mediately following the second ad vent verse 37 now when they heard this that is when the multitude heard peters sermon in which he showed that jesus was the expected messiah of israel and that he had been rejected and crucified but that god had raised him from the dead and confirmed him as lord and christ many were consciencesmitten and con victed by the spirit and in agony of soul cried out what shall we do was it too late to avail them selves of the saviour they had re jected or was there hope for them still if so on what terms verse 38 repent and be bap tized in the name of jesus christ to repent is to change ones attitude completely they were called upon to own their guilt and be baptized as recognizing the authority of the one they had spurned in order that through his name they might have remission of sins and receive the promise of the spirit verse 39 the promise is unto you and to your children that is first of all to israel but also to all that are afar off namely the gentiles see eph 217 even to all to whom the call of god should be extended through the gospel verse 40 save yourselves from this untoward generation that unbelieving generation was now exposed to the judgment of god by heeding peters word they would become identified with the one whom israel refused and so they would escape the government al dealings of god with the people who had failed to recognize the time of their visitation verse 41 the same day there were added about three thous and souls the one hundred and twenty believers constituted the nucleus of the church they were baptized into one body though the revelation of the body was not yet given but awaited the conver sion of saul of tarsus and immed iately began to witness to the risen christ by nightfall three thousand who received the word and were baptized were
