PAGE TWENTY- TWO THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE : SATURDAY, APRIL 15, 1950 Eager To Serve By R. BARCLAY WARREN In the sixth chapter of Isaiah we read of the call of the young man to his life task. He saw a vision of the holiness of the Lord. Then he held his own uncleanness and cried out, "Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am & man of un- clean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts." Then came the purging of his sin. In his own ac- count of it he goes on to say, "Also I heard the voice of the Lord, say- ing, 'Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" Then said I, 'Here am I; send me'". Too many of us have thought of the prophet's reply as being rather passive, But here was a man who saw the need of the people about him. His own need had just been met. He was eager to help. His heart was bursting to be of service. It was as though he were exclaim- ing, "Lord, I'm here; is there some- thing I can do?" That is the spirit of the real Christian. He doesn't have to be provided into taking a Sunday School class, visiting the sick, and witnessing for his Lord. He wants to be doing something for God. It was so after Pentecost The disciples, their hearts purified by faith (Acts 15:9), and filled with the Holy Ghost, went out to witness for Christ, heal the sick and minister to the needy. If the Church is to be militant, ever- throwing the hosts of evil and ac- complishing the good for which she is called, then she must catch the vision and share the passion of Isaiah and the early Church. If we fail, many will be lost. Fine Program At Zion W.A. Meeting MRS. RUSSELL STAINTON Correspondent Zion, April 15--Mr. and Mrs. Tom Currie, Toronto were weekend guests at Robert Killen's.

Haass, New Homes For Eskimos Churchill, Man., April 15--(CP)-- Fifty hungry Eskimos in the Lake Ennadai district 350 miles north- west of here probably will be flown to new homes farther south. The prospect is the natives will be evacuated to Lake Nueltin, mid- way along the Manitoba-North West Territories boundary, where there is work and food, They were close to starvation earlier this week. The R.C.AF. had to take in some emergency supplies. The move to Nueltin Lake can be made in one day. Ordinarily it would be overland, by dog team. But almost every dog owned by the Eskimos at Ennadai has died-- whether from starvation of disease is not known. The problem if the hungry Eskimo {s hard to understand. It seems mental as well as physical. There are fish in Lake Ennadal and at Padlei, a short distance farther north, where other Eski- mos are reported short of food. Eskimos will fish for the white man (and the men will have to do so to earn a living at Lake Nueltin), but they won't fish for themselves. The North West Territories Es- kimos is a meat-eater, and appar- ently is under-nourished unless he has the meat of caribou. One of the reasons for this year's priva- tion has been an unexplained change in the Caribou's migration route. (Richard Harrington, a" photo- grapher who returned to Toronto recently from the Hudson Bay area, predicted some Padlei district Eskimos may die of starvation it the spring caribou migration, due late in April, bypasses that area.) Northland experts say there are two possible explanations why Es- kimos won't fish for themselves: 1. There may be some primitive "taboo" against it--something the Special Speaker Se REV. JOHN LENG, B.A., B.D, M.C. Associate Secretary of the Board of Home Missions of the United Church of Canada, who will be the special speaker at the service in North Oshawa United Church Sun- day night. The service will mark the celebration of the second an- niversary of the church. A special fe-ture will be the burning of the mortgage on the church building. The Christian Sabbath The first reference to the Sabbath is found in Gen, 2:23. "On the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sancti- fied it: because that in it he had rested from all His work which God created and made." Later Gpd, in the ten commandments given through Moses, said: "Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy; Six days shalt thou labour and do all thy work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God; in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daugh- ter, thy manservant, nor thy maid- servant, nor thy cattle nor the stranger that is within thy gates, for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day; wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hal- lowed it." Ex. 20: 8-11. God's blessing was upon those who kept the Sabbath. "If thou turn away thy foot from the Sab- bath, from doing thy pleasure on My holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord, honourable; and shalt honour Him, not doing thine own ways, nor find- ing thine own pleasure, nor speak-' ing thine own words; then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father; for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it," Is. 58: 13-14. Jesus Christ arose on the first day of the week. He appeared again to His disciples a week later. The early group of disciples con- tinued assemblying themselves to- gether on the first day of the week in honor of their risen Lord. The opening of Sunday for com- mercialized sport will not help the morals of our people. Blakie wise- ly said, "The law of the sabbath is the keystone. of the arch of public morals; take it away and the whole fabric falls." R. BARCLAY WARREN Lorne Park College, missionaries haven't discovered. 2. The Eskimos may so exhaust themselves roaming the country in| search of caribou that all initiative is gone, Eskimos will eat fish given to them by a white: man and feed it to their dogs. But hungry them- selves, and with their dogs starv- ing, they do not fish. | In any case, no fish--and no food | of the white man--seems to give them the energy obtained from meat. The record indicates that most epidemics have attacked the natives when there has been a meat shortage. That is the case this year, with some 100 Eskimos so far stricken by measles, SHAKESPEARIAN HOARD ~The Folger Shakespeare Library, in Washington, D.C., is the largest and richest Shakespearian library | ever assembled.

If a person is wronged he may apply to the courts and if he feels he has not been righted, he may take his case to higher courts, until he reaches the Supreme Court --highest of all. It may be, of course, that occa- sionally this person will still feel he has not received justice. There ere such instances. People have devious ways of cheating others --ways that the courts cannot touch, ' Some have been libeled -- their good names taken away. They may have lost their positions through slander, and never can reinstate themselves, and their reputations are ruined. Across the sea men are con- stantly being accused of treason, spying, and brutally treated to make them confess. Cruel injus- tices are practiced in many na- tions. How will it all end? It will be punished by God in due tie, but the sufferings are great. Amos, coming from the quiet countryside, saw that the rich had forgotten God. They lived in the greatest luxury and often immo- rality, without giving any thought at all to the poor and needy. God would surely punish them, Amos warned, for he had been commanded by Jehovah to tell them sc, and to plead with them to turn away from these evils and seek the God of their fathers. "For I know how manifold are your transgressions, and how mighty arz your sins--ye that afflict the just, that take a bribe, and that turn aside the needy in the gate from their right. "That lie upon beds of ivory and stretch themselves upon their couch- es,. and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall. "That sing idle songs to the sound of the viol; that invent fox themselves instruments of music, like David; "That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with tle chief oils; but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph." ; Amos paints an enticing picture of Oriental luxury. Well, there are people today who drink too much, eat too much, live in selfish abun- dance without giving thought to those: who, through no fault of their own, are in need. Amos' accusations of men who ate the richest and best foods from the choicest of the "flocks 21nd herds, and gave no thought to the many wretched in their midst, were scathing. In those days a man who fell in debt could sell himself or be sold as a servant to work out 'what he owed. Too much drinking of strong liquors: was a crying evil in that da as it is today. | "When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell grain, and | the Sabbath, that we. may set forth | wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great and dealing falsely with balances of deceit? That we may buy the poor for silver, and | the needy for a pair of shoes, and {sell the refuse of the wneat?" Thus did men become rich--by giving short measure and charging high prices; by false figuring with their balances to deceive, and cheai- ing the poor by selling the refuse of the grain instead of good wheat. "Jehovah hath sworn by the ex- cellency of Jacob, surely I will never forget any of their works,' warned Amos. Then he pleaded with his peopie: "Seek good, and not evil; that ye may live; and so Jehovah, the God of hosts, will be with you, as ye say.
