Canada's forests, and the ani- / mals that live there, are very valu- able. It took Canadians a long time to understand how valuable they are, but today we try to take care of them and keep them from being destroyed. To do this Can- ada has game wardens and fire wardens whose job is to prevent forests against fires and to pre- vent thoughtless hunters from kill- ing too many animals. Far up in northern Ontario a game warden lives all year round in a little log cabin. With him are his wife and little girl. One spring day, three or four years ago, the warden's little girl found a tiny fawn, or baby deer, which had been born with only three legs. It's right front leg was just a stump. Unable to move about with its mother and the other little fawns, the young one had been abandoned. The warden carried it home, - although he did not think it would live. In the kitchen of the warden's cabin the little fawn rested in a bed of soft blankets, and was fed on eva milk until it could eat more solid foods such as vege- tables and porridge. Gradually it became stronger and showed that it wanted to go out in the forest and play. Having nursed the young deer back to health, the warden carved for it a wooden leg which he at- tached to the stump. At first the fawn fought against having this "peg leg" but, little by little, it became used to it and soon learned to walk and run about almost as well as the other deer. Every once in a while the warden added a little bit to the end of the "peg leg" as the deer's other legs grew longer. Today the deer is fully grown and is as tame and friendly as a house cat. It stays for days around the cabin and every oncc in a while goes to the door to beg for a cookie or a piece of potato, but what it likes best is what is left of the oatmeal when the warden and his wife and daughter have had their breakfast. Then after & visit, the deer is off again to the forest. The only worry the warden has is that some day a hunter will. shoot the deer with the wooden leg, not knowing that it is a pet; or that the wolves will get it, for the deer cannot run and jump like a normal deer.

One on a mountain for preference. You know the sort of thing--kindly old bald-hegded monks and St. Ber- nard dogs with barrels of brandy under their chins. . At one time all the best trav- elers managed to get themselves benighted near some monastery, where they found sanctuary from blizzards, robbers, or the howling wolves at their heels. Whisked to Hotel But nowadays when you travel viking or Skymaster you are hardly ever succoured by monks. Instead of dining with some jolly old abbot at the end of the day you are whisked away to some B.O.AC. hostel or a marble hotel where the wolves are all inside, sit- ting around the bar. The monasteries are still there. If you look down from your plane you will see them clinging to the mountains as they have done since the Middle Ages. There's one somewhere near Vichy, which is bang on top of a mountain, and sometimes as you fly by it is standing above the clouds like an island fortress in a misty sea. I stopped off in Cyprus on the way home from Israel, and when the girl at the airport reception desk showed me a list of 83 hotels on the island I said in jest that I didn't want any of them, I'd much rather stay at a monastery. She smiled sweetly and said: "Well, I dare say that could be arranged." And arranged it was. In no time at all I was on my way to the mountains with a car and a Greek-speaking escort. The one I was taken to is called Kykko (pronounced Jicko). It's 3,800 feet up on a mountain ridge with breathtaking views. The ymonks, whose 800-year-old rule is never to twn away anyone, have had to build two car parks and a block of 70 "guest cells" to accommodate all. a Outside the gates there's a pri- vately run cafe and wine shop where you can eat and drink on a terrace overlooking the valley. Get Best Cell Our abbot was in town when we arrived, but the monk in charge of visitors said he was delighted io see us and gave us his best cell There were 14 beds in it and they all had clean sheets and spring mattresses. Not a sign of a hair shirt anywhere. Being a weekday, the place was practically empty. Apart from our- selves, the only visitors were seven drunks, listening to car radio rumbas. The monastery has a phone, a post office and a radio, but no plumbing. We washed in cool water brought in earthenware pitchers from a well in the yard. There was no hot water, but as the monks of this order are not allowed to shave it doesn't worry them much. I've got an idea they are not aflowed to cut hair either. There's not much going on in a monastery of an evening, so most of the monks go and sit in the cafe outside. We joined them. At the next table the seven drunks were singing songs in Greek, and to judge by the occa- sional "Tut! Tut!" from the mon! they were not in taste. : "Don't you mind people acting like this?" I asked one of them. "Well," he answered, "our doors are open to all. And anyway it's better théy should sleep in the monastery tonight than go driving down the mountain in that state." Do As Monks Do When I was there the monks were fasting, and they suggested MARY, MOTHER of Jesus, is the subject of today's ¥esson. We do not know very much about her --a word or two here and there in the gospels. But what little we do know makes us love her. She is introduced to us quite cas- ually, by St." Luke who tells the story of the angel appearing to this young girl and telling her the marvelous news that she was to be the mother of the Christ. At once Mary went 'to her cousin Elizabeth and imparted the wonderful mes- sage to her, and Elizabeth shared her joy so thoroughly that she sang a song of joy to Mary, begin- ning, "Blessed art thou among wo- men." Then Mary thanked the Lord for thus glorifying her in the beautiful Magnificat so called because that is the first word of the first line in the Latin text. "My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. For He hath looked upon the low estate of His hand- maiden: for behold, from hence- forth all generations will call me blessed." Any high-born lady would have been honored had the miracle hap- pened to her, but God had chosen this simple, humble girl for the honor. All generations have in- deed called her blessed. Then follows the account of the birth of Jesus, and we must skip intervening happenings in this brief account, to the time Jesus was 12 years old. On the return journey to the home at Nazareth, Jesus was missing after a whole day's journey. Mary had thought the lad was with others of the company, but when she and the father could not find Him they went back to Jeru- salem, Three days they searched, finally discovering Him in the temple, holding conversation with the teachers there, asking them questions and listening to what they told him. In spite of her natural terror at losing her child, Mary asked Him gently, we are sure, "Son, why that IT might prefer to eat at the cafe than sit down to their frugal fare. But that wasn't'the idea at all. Why go into a monastery if you don't do as the monks do? So they put me, at the head of their table and we dined on lentil soup, dry bread, spring onions and olives, To drink there was home- made wine or water. Afterwards we went back to the cafe and talked politics. They asked if I had any British news- papers with me. They couldn't speak English but some of them could read it. I gave them what I had, and then we all went to bed in our cells -- the monks, the drunks, and I. I had to get up early in the morning to catch my plane, but there was no difficulty about wak- ing, for the bells were rung for mass at 4:15 am. To show willing I attended the service for the first hour or so, but when it showed no signs of ending I slipped out and with my escort drove down the mountains in the dawn. The woman next to me in the plane asked what hotel I'd stayed at, and when I said I'd been in a monastery she gave me a queer look. Presently she moved to an- other seat. Windows Broken By Hailstorm At Claremont EDWARD J. YEWIS Correspondent Claremont, 'August 18--A storm, the second in three weeks, and which, during its course, almost reached cloudburst proportions broke over Claremont and vicinity late Thursday afternoon about 5:15 p.m. accompanied with hail stones of sufficient size to break windows of several houses in the village. In some sections of the village the hydro was off from 5.30 p.m. to 6.45 p.m. and streets were turned into small rivers, On the outskirts of the village trees were uprooted and farmers report extensive damage done to grain and corn which was still standing in the fields. Friends of Mrs. John Gregg, who at present is in Oshawa General Hospital, are pleased to learn that she is progressing nicely. Mrs. John Pallister, formerly of the North Town Line, but now re- siding in Altona, we are sorry to learn suffered a heart attack a few days ago. Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Graham and family of Albert Street, Osh- awa, are spending a few days in Claremont with Mrs. Graham's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Lewis.

Cook them in a covered pan in the smallest possible amount of water in the shortest possible time. Vegetables should be prepared im- mediately before cooking as expos- ure to the air and long cooking destroys the valuable vitamin C content, LEADING THE FIELD rculosis kills more Canadians than all the other communicable di combined.

His answer, "How is it that I must be about My Father's busi- ness?" seemed natural to Him, but Mary pondered it in her heart with other things about this wonderful Child. Obediently Jesus returned with His parents to Nazareth, and "was subject unto them: but His mother kept all these sayings in her heart." She alone knew that her son was not like others. That He had a divine mission. Another little episode in Mary's relation to her son is told us by St. Mark. Jesus was sitting in a house surrounded by friends. Mary and Jesus' brothers came, and some- one called Jesus and told Him His called Jesus and told Him His mother and brothers were without. Answering, He said something that might have hurt His gentle mother, 'Who is My mother and. My brethern?" then answered Him- self, looking around on those who were with Him, "Behold, My moth- ed and My brethern." Mary undoubtedly understood. He no longer belonged to her and His brothers and sister, but to the whole world! St. John gives us another in- stance of this same seemingly un- kind attitude of Jesus toward His mother, and her understanding that no unkindness was meant. Mary and Jesus attended a wedding in Cana. Mary found the host had no wine, and told Jesus. He said, "Woman, what have. 'I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come." Mary simply said to the ser- vants, "Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it." The form of address, "Woman," which would be consid- ered an insult by any modern wo- man, was a correct form of address in those faroff days. That Jesus did, indeed, love His mother 'and thought of her welfare is illustrated when He was dying on the cross. Seeing His mother and His beloved disciple, John, below Him, He turned to Mary, and, indi- cating John, said 'to her, "Behold thy son," and to John, "behold thy mother." And after' the tragedy was over, John took Mary home with him and cared for her the rest of her life. THE PENTECOSTAL CHURCH 245 SIMCOE ST. , SUNDAY 10 AM.
