Fol- lowers of Christ seek to carry out his spirit in their personal relation­ ships. The Christian Church has been a great agency of friendship. Jesus said to his disciples that he called them friends: it is still a privilege of followers of Christ tc and one feel that they are his friends thereby they become friends of another.

Jesus was Active The supreme miracle of the life of Jesus was that in less than three years he was able to accomplish what he did. The Golden Text gives us a clue: “Jesus of Nazareth. . •. went about doing good.” He lived without haste, yet each moment was conserved and used to the utmost ; His life had poise and calm, yet he worked steadily to a purpose. He knew for what he lived and he lived for it. Carlyle said, “The end oi Man is Action, not a Thought, even though it were the noblest.” Jesus combined both thought and action He was a practical idealist. He coiled think the highest thoughts about God and he could also, help the sick child. He could set forth a glowing idea of the kingdom of God on earth and he could be kind to a poor maniac raving amid the tombs Jesus could act, promptly and at the right time. Religion is often criti- ' cized as being other-worldly, but Our Example Can Jesus really be our example? He Jived in an oriental land nine­ teen hundred years ago. He never married, and his life ended in his early tliirities. He lived before the days of modern newspapers, ma­ chinery, transportation and science. I-Ie lived before the discovery of North and South America and he worked among people who thought that the earth was flat. He owned no real estate, carried no life insur­ ance, and left no legacy except his garments. In has externals his life is far different from ours, but in eternal things he is our highest ex­ ample. His use of time, his faith in God,, his love for men, his utter devotion even though it meant a cross1—(these, are the ways in which his example helps us most. Jesus went about doing good:^his^example | religion of Jesus was not other­ worldly. Jesus helped people where they were. Such mundane matters as food, health, friendship concern­ ed him. It is not irreverent to to live like Jesus. In his life we the ideal of what our lives may Christ is our example in service. Questions for Discussion 1. State ways in which the Chris­ tian ideals of service have premeat- ed modern life. 2. How may business and tics be Christianized? 3. In how far is the Church ing humanity?^ 4. In what aspects of life Jesus most interested, 5. How far are Service Clubs re­ alizing Christ’s example of service? 6. Are we consciously making Jesus our example in service?? of service is the highest we know. Jesus was Sensational The gospel is good news and also it is news. There was no self-adver­ tising about the public ministry of Jesus but his ministry was sensa­ tional. In the past three months the Sunday School Lessons have follow-! ed the story of the life of Jesus as given in the first six chapters of Mark's Gospel. John the Baptist proclaimed Jesus as the Messiah The worshippers in the synagogue at Capernaum were astonished at" the teaching of Jesus. Because of his deeds of healing his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round the Galilee. In Capernaum “all the city was gathered together at the 'door.” Crowds followed him when he went away to the hillsides for solitude. When it became known that he had returned to Ca- periaum, crowds thronged the house where he was. A sick man was let down through the roof be­ cause entrance was impossible through the door. So great was the crowd along the lakeshore that he had to teach from a boat. When he went away with his disciples for rest and quiet, thousands followed him. People would not leave him alone. They were interested in the truths he taught; they were sur­ prised at the note of authority in his words; his deeds left them i amazed and the kindness of Jesus was altogether novel.

He experienced a deep solitariness of spirit. He had purposes about which he could take counsel only with God. Yet he could not do his work, alone. He called disciples to be with him and his re­ lationship with his disciples gives us an example of companionableness He talked to them freely; he ans­ wered their questions; he made them feel that he was personally interested in each one of them. His The more successful a man is, the more he appreciates the benefits of life insurance. . . . For this reason we suggest that you ask friends, in whom you have confidence, what THEY think about Life Insurance. They know . . . they have seen the com­ fort and happiness that it has brought to so many of their friends. For example, by means of a Confederation Life Endowment Policy you can make provision for dependants until they become self-supporting. You can also provide that, if through accident or illness, you become totally disabled, your premiums will be waived during the period of your disability and you will receive a monthly cheque to replace, in part, your lost earning power. And, finally, when the policy matures, you will receive the entire proceeds of the Endowment in a lump sum, or you may take it in the form of a definite Monthly Income for Life. ’Hie Confederation Life Association will gladly send you par­ ticulars of this most desirable form of Endowment Policy, if you fill out and mail the coupon below.

FARMER The New York Times has this to say: “For the American farmer 1932 was a year of singular mis­ fortune. Between January 1st and mid-December average prices of agricultural products, as computed by the Bureau of Labor Sta­ tistics, declined by 1S.1 per cent., while the general price level was falling by only 7.S per cent. This decline came after two years of severe deflation which had already reduced farm prices by nearly 50 per cent. Measured in terms of dollars, the result has been a drop in the estimated gross income of agricultural products from $11,900',000,000 in 1929 to $5,200,000,000 in 1932. This great decrease has added to the burden of farm mortgages and severely curtailed the purchasing power -of the large number of Americans who live on farms.* * * * Suffered From Heart Weakness Mrs. A.

(St. Thomas Times-Journal The criticism that is being levelled at the alleged expenditure of $5,00.0 for a portrait of the former former Lieutenant-Governor following on the revelation that some $2,750 had been spent on a portrait of the former Premier of Ontario is quite justified. As a matter of historical record, it is nice to have oil paint­ ings of our Premiers and Lieutenant-Governors, but this is not the time for such expenditure. It may be. tradition, but traditions like promises, are sometimes made to be broken, and a. precedent would have been created if the gentleman so honored had decided that their faces could look down on posterity by the medium of studio portraits. Modern photography is so fine, that a really marvellous picture could be done by an art photographer for a matter of $50. And possibly it would be a rare striking likeness—-especially if the photographer told them to “watch for the birdie.” But if paintings are demanded why not require that the ex­ officials pay for them themselves? Incidentally, wernre surprised to learn that there are artists in Canada who can command such high fees for painting portraits. Even Laszlo, Lavery and John would not despise such sums. Wbil- theie there will be acreage given for Dutch sets growers are hoping for the best. One well-known onion man expressed the view that the duty on the seed which is largely imported, together with the adverse high rate of exchange would have the tendency to discour­ age independent growers who, he said, were responsible for cutting the price and who prevented the contract growers from regulating supply to demand. Another well- known grower pointed out the fact that the West formerly an importer of sets grown in the vicinity of Ex­ eter, now enters into opposition sending sets here to Ontario. by CELEBRATES 92nd BIRTHDAY Mrs. Sarah Atkinson, of Bilanshard celebrated her ninety-second birth­ day on Friday, March 3. Members of her.family were present with the ex­ ception of Mrs. Wm. Doig, of Del­ isle, Sask. Grandchildren and great­ grandchildren also joined in the cel­ ebration. Thir.ty-three guests 3at down to dinner. Mrs. Atkinson, whose maiden name, was Sarah White, was born in .Newton iStuart, Ireland, in the year 1841. When 12 years of age she came with her par­ ents to Canada, .settling at Victoria Square. In 1860 she was married to Jas. B7 Atkinson and settled on the third line, of Blanshard, where she still resides. Twelve children, were born, eight of whom are still living She now has .thirty-five grandchil­ dren and fifty-six great-grandchil­ dren. AWARD DAUGHTER 83,000 IN CASH In a surrogate finding made pub­ lic Friday, Judge Costello directs that Mrs. Beryl C. Ladd, only child.' of the late Samuel Cooper, for many years mayor of Clinton, be paid $3,- 000 cash forthwith from her father’s estate and .in addition the sum of $100 a month, payments to date back to the death <of the testator. The late Samuel Cooper, who died on April 5, 1932, was the larg­ est property owner in Clinton. In his will he. bequeathed $'50, a month and a free house to his sister-in-law Mrs. Hannah. The income of the bal­ ance of the $50,000 estate was given to his daughter, Mrs. Ladd, during her life-time, and in the event of Mrs. Ladd’s death, brothers and sis- 0,£ flsccnsod wore to Ijonofit share and share alike. It has devel­ oped, owing to the economic condi­ tions, that the estate has only been able to pay Mrs. Ladd $65 a month. His honor finds that Cooper had in mind substantial income for who is in ill health, fore directs that the executors, Alex­ ander Cooper and the Canada Trust Company, raise sufficient money from the estate to pay Mrs. Ladd $3,000 cash and $100 a month here­ after.
