The text chosen consisted of the command given to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Ed­ en. “Replenish the earth and sub­ due it.” These words were regard­ ed by the preacher as the farmers’ marching orders. The preacher Saw in these words a call to the farmers in co-operation with the Creator, to finish the work of creation. In this great task each farmer had his duty and his opportunity. The preacher evidently believed that the Creator had not placed man in the world to be a mere manipulator of things, as & player shuffles pawns on a board, but that each farmer was in a very real sense a bringer about of absol­ utely new things and conditions. This great work of discovery, it was pointed out, was at once tremend­ ously hard and tremendously well worth while. The farmer who sought this end would find; satisfaction, in the joy of endeavor and in the sat­ isfaction of achievement. The farm­ er who resolutely set himself to this task rather to seeking, the rewards of his function was the farmer who would reap the finest rewards, not only in his fields but in his own best life. Men; by seeking the re­ wards of labor rather than in seek­ ing the triumph of creative effort in accordance with tlie will of God had brought untold misery upon them­ selves and upon the race.

McDonell, Hensail Premier Ferguson’s old age pen­ sions legislation, which was intro­ duced in the Legislature on Friday, is not likely to be in operation be­ fore November the 11st, the start of another fiscal year, but, in’ case it should be ready to function before that time, the Government has pre­ pared itself to make pension pay­ ments, Authority is provided in the act to pay out of the consolidat­ ed revenue fund in case such a situ­ ation arises. According to the survey made last summer of the dependents filed by J. A. Ellis, director of the Bur­ eau of Municipal Affairs, between 18,000 and 20,000 old people of the province will be eligible for pensions. A gross payment annually of approx­ imately $4,500,000 will be required. Of this sum, -the Dominion Govern­ ment will pay $2,225,000. The bill just introduced* provides for the receipt oL the 50 per cent, payment by the federal authorities; 30 per ednt. contribution, and asks the municipalities to supplement the amount by a contribution of 20 per cent, towards the maintenance of the aged, needy people of their pros­ pective localities. Named By County Councils The, general scheme of the follows along thez lines of mothers’ allowance legislation, act the 6X* cept that under the Mothers’ Allow­ ance Act the county councils nomin­ ate two members of a board of five, and the governor-in-council names three members of . such board. Un­ der this act, the nomination of the entire board is left in the hands of the county councils. To this local board will be made applications aud through them will come recommend­ ation to the central authorities which administrate the act pensions. ■Local municipal have a more intimate securing, information, cognized that the local authorities are the best medium through which recommendations should be made. This has been demonstrated under the Mothers’ Allowance Act. What the Dominion and Province fact saying .to the local au­ thorities. is that these two Govern­ ment# will contribute 80 per cent, and fsk the local municipalities only er cent, towards insuring com- 1 happiness to many deserv- people. and. pay the organizations knowledge for and it is re- women do lead double lives own and their husband's’!
