the tribune stouffviue ont thursday nov 4th 1943 hljp uutffmllp urtbunp i established 1888 v member of the canadian weekly newspaper association and ontario quebec newspapers association issued every thursday at stouffviue ontario eight to twelve pages average paid circulation 1900 subscription kates per year in advance in canada 200 in usa 3250 a v nolan son publishers notes and comments let us put over the loan at the time this editorial was written we had just had a talk with one of the bond salesmen for stouffviue and he expressed the fear that unless greater interest was shown and bigger effort put forth on the part of investors this community would fall short on reaching ils objective of 100000 in the present loan campaign likewise the situation in whitchurch and markham was not promising and we are hoping that with the last three days there will come a great change this banner county of york would have no valid excuse to offer if we failed to reach theuota set up for us it was done before and the people have the money to do it again bank state ments indicate the money is on deposit problems scope and functions of teachers and other civic employees are so utterly different from those of mem bers of the average labor union that there is no natural reason why either should affiliate it is not a case of the former being orphans they have their own strong organ izations and an abundance of spokesmen and while there may be something of the old craft or guild idea about teaching there is practically none so far as other civic em ployment is concerned but the most preposterous part of the whole thing is the assumption that a yardstick ean be devised to measure a type of service that in actual practice cannot be mea sured the development of the childs intellect is not a standard process like laying so many bricks or welding so many ship plates the job of a policeman or fireman is not one to be measured in hours or the number of criminals caught or fires subdued looking ahead each day brings us nearer to the time when the great war plants throughout canada will be given an order to close down and that will be the end of war work for hun dreds of thousands of people one of these big plants is within close range of stouffviue and 150 workers from this place are gainfully employed in the manufacture of mun ition every worker should be looking ahead to that day preparing for it by laying aside all the money they can so that they will have something in store for the long noli- day that may be theirs statistics show that thousands of mortgages have been paid off during this war by private individuals many gained experience in the last war and can visualize what can happen again after this war ends by way of depression and if not a depression then an in definite period of no work while industry readjusts itself to peacetime pursuits those who stand free of debt will be much better off than those who failed to discharge their obligations when times were good coming back to the war plant where stouffviue dis trict finds employment it is hard to visualize this place with its town and school built to its needs being closed down however that is certain to happen and if the plant ever opens again for the manufacture of peacetime goods it will only be after a year or two of inactivity hog quotas down down but price up we asked half a dozen prominent farmers for their opinion on the new announcement that canadas bacon quota would be cut a third and restrictions lifted on the slaughtering of hogs for domestic consumption the finan cial post says that the announcement came as a profound shock and disappointment to ottawa- but our farmer friends make no statement whatever they seem more con cerned about the immediate price of hogs rather than whether an agreement for a stated price is for one year or two years the new policy involves a twoyear british quota of a minimum of 450 million pounds a year instead of the present 675 million quota a slightly higher price and the lifting of restrictions which said hogs slaughtered for home consumption must not be more than 75 per cent of those slaughtered in 1941 our friend the dog unions teachers and policemen the financial post two pieces of strange news have come out of british columbia recently the first is a recommendation at the vancouver city council to sign a collective bargaining agreement for a closed union shop with a civic employees association the second is a report- that the british col umbia teachers federation will link itself with the trades and labor congress of canada few people we predict even from within the ranks of union itself would agree with either of these steps there is a town bylaw in stouffviue prohibiting dogs from running at large but in the fall and winter season the law is sort of winked at few people will complain about a dog running around loose in mid winter which is quite different than in the spring and summer season when they use bur lawns and flower beds for a hiding place for bones however winter or summer if a dog is complained against as cross or likely to cause fright to people they the owner must keep him on the leash we do not know just when the winking starts or exactly when it ends but the unwritten law is there hence the number of extra dogs that are gradually seen running at large after all it seems too bad if mans best friend can not have a little liberty during the year and we say this not owning a dog as far back as the stone age the cave dwellers had dogs that looked like wolves and they were treated as the friends of man five thousand years ago the chaldeans and egyptians had greyhounds and terriers or dogs that looked like these breeds in 600 bc the assyrians had mastiffs the greeks and romans of the classical days the people of ancient england the eskimos of the arctic the aboriginies of the antipodes africans in the steaming jungles they all had their dogs around the world the dog is a friend of man and has been since the dawn of time is giving him a bit of winter liberty too much it not then when is the date he is to be given his liberty one suggest ion is to leash him until christmas and make a sort of com ing of santa claus for bowser to unleash him for three or four months i know it from the biandnew so ex- grain in a bin sure just

life none but he has the right to say when it shall be terminated under certain circumstances he has de creed that society shall punish those guilty of grave offenses by death he too has at times commanded the destruction of whole tribes or nat ions when their iniquities have be come unbearable in his sight this explains his mandate to joshua ordering the destruction of the ca- naanites and his command to king saul regarding the amalekites scripture abounds with similar inci dents all of which are in harmony with gods rulings as the moral gov ernor of the universe but in the internal arrangement of society each is to respect the rights of- others and human life is not to be taken by another except in accordance with the law of the land as penalty tor crimes of ex ceptional flagrance no private in dividual is to presume to punish an other on his own initiative by de priving him of his life it is this that the sixth commandment expressly forbids to quote this mandate as forbidding participation in war fare is to ignore the fact that the same god who gave it commanded the virtual annihilation of the cor rupt nations dwelling at that time in palestine in this dispensation of grace our lord expands this law against mur der by prohibiting malice and hatred which are the root causes of most homicides no one who loves his neighbor will do him harm willfully in any manner but he who eheiishes hatred is in his heart already a potential murderer verse by verse exod 2013 thou shalt not kill by this commandment god teaches us the sacredness of human life murder is always wrong and he who violates this mandate exposes himself to the same fate as that met ed out to his victim it was god him self who instituted capital punish ment when he committed the gov

lord jesus referred of course to what was commanded by moses not in any sense to belittle it or to ignore its impoitance but he was about to add to it by going to the very root of murder which is found ini the evil state of the human heart verse 22 but i say unto you in this emphatic way our lord in troduced the higher teaching which was designed to lay bare all the in most emotions of the heart so he went on to show the sinfulness of unreasonable anger and of lightly esteeming ones fellow man all guilty of welldeserved judgment though in varying degrees in accor dance with the enormity
