ALBERTA COAL How Ontario People Can Help Themselves By buying Alberta coal, Ontario householders will ibe providing more work for Canadian miners, who will then be able to buy more Canadian manufactured goods, many of which are produced in the factories of On­ tario. These manufactured articles are carried over Canadian railway lines to Western Canada, thereby providing still more addition work for Canadian railway employees. Canada sends across the line to the United iStates thirty million dol­ lars a year for domestic coal alone: the type of coal Ontario employees use to heat their homes. This is in addition to thirty millions sent across the line for bituminous coal. If one half of the thirty million dollars sent from Canada to the United States each year for domes­ tic coal were diverted to Canadian mines, the effect on .business condi­ tions in Western Canada would be tremendous, and this would soon be reflected in Ontario'. The argument heretofore advanc­ ed by some that the price of Alberta coal was too close to the price of American anthracite has been swept away. Today the very best Alberta domestic coals for furnace use can be bought in Ontario at from $11.00 to $13.00 per ton. The retail prices vary slightly in different centres .due to delivery costs, overhead and the like, and due to' a slight' difference m the various coals at the mines. So that there is now available in On­ tario a good Canadian domestic fuel at anywhere from two to three and a half dollars per ton less than im­ ported fuels of a similiar class. Buy Canadian coal and keep your money in Canada. Sunday School Lesson WORLD’S TEMPERANCE SUNDAY (Sunday, Oct. 29.—Romans 1(3': 12- 14; 14:7-9, 15-21. Golden Text Love worketh no ill to his neigh­ bor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. (Rom. 13:10). Where did human government or­ iginate? Did man invent it? Is it right or wrong for one man or group of men'to govern other men? These are questions very much to the front today. The problems they raise are not hypothetical or vision­ ary, but intensely real and practical. And their answer is simple and de­ finite. Human government was not orig­ inated by men, it comes from God. “For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.” Paul was writing by inspira­ tion, and he was discussing human government. “The powers that be" are human rulersi—'Magistrates, Gov­ ernors, Presidents, Kings, Emperors, Dictators. In these days where there are so many confusing and iconflicting voices concerning gov- erment of every kind, and whether any government at all is right, it is good to have a divine word of au­ thority that settles the matter. A conclusion follows, if human government is ordained of God: ‘Let every soul be subject unto the -high­ er powers.” Good citizenship, is therefore a Christian duty; it is not optional, The truest Christians are the best citizens. Whoever resists human government, says Paul, re­ sists God’s ordinance—that is, God’s divine order for this world. Men may differ conscientiously as to what laws we should or should not have; but it is a duty to obey the laws that we nave. This is true of prohibition laws and of all others. While they stand on the statute books they represent the Government and should be respect­ ed. Oui* lesson for World’s Temper­ ance Sunday is timely, not only with reference to the question of drink, but also in connection with the more or less disquieting political and Gov­ ernment situation in every land. Government, says Paul, is set up for the protection of those who are doing right and ..for the punishment of - those who are doing wrong. Therefore, to Christian people Paul writes that the human ruler “is the minister of God to thee for good.” On the other hand, evildoers may well “be afraid” of the human ruler: “for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.” These inspired sentences show the righteousness of punishment of sin, and may well be heeded by human governors and lawmakers today, as crime increases. Swift, stern punish­ ment for banditry, abduction and murder has the authority and ap­ proval of God. Paul is very practical; he ""does not overlook the question of paying taxes and customs duty. Tax-dodg­ ing and smuggling find no sanction in the Word orf God. And Paul sums up human duty and law keeping in the great command­ ment, that our Lord said summed up , the other commandments concern­ ing our fellow-men: “Thou shalt love they neighbor as thyself.” Love 'breaks no laws, for “Love wopketh no ill to his neighbor.” Love keeps every law; “Therefore love is the •fulfilling of the law.” This puts law-keeping on a high plane—where it belongs. But such love as this is quite impossible for the natural man, whose heart is fill­ ed wth envy and covetousness, and often lust and anger towards others. How then can we hope to keep the whole law, and fulfil the law, by this 'beautiful but impossible quality of true love—the sort of love des­ cribed in First Corinthians, 13, which “never faileth?” The last verse of the first lesson chapter is a glorious summary and secret of the whole chapter. "But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof.” Only those who have received'Christ as Saviour, and who by doing this have received a new nature, a new life, having been born again from above, can hope to have their lives control­ led by God’s own love and keep the laws both of God and man. We are offered Christ as Saviour “that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us” (Rom. 8:4). Paul then goes on to discuss other practical matters, such as meat-eat­ ing in contrast with vegetarianism, and such as the observance of cer­ tain days, about which Christian people may properly and conscient­ iously differ. He counsels us to do all things as unto the Lord, and to do nothing that might trouble the conscience of some one with whom we may disagree. For “every one of us shall give account of himself to God.” Another clear-visioned, ringing, and divinely Inspired statement is as needed today as when It was first tittered nineteen centuries ago: “It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, or anything whereby thy bfdther stumfoleth, or Is Offended, or is made weak,” “PERSONS NOT FAT LIVE LONGEST” Eminent Physician Declares In a recent lecture before the American Academy of Medicine, a prominent physican stated that per­ sons who aren’t fat live the longest. Common sense confirms this. In­ surance companies often reject over­ weight folks or charge higher pre­ miums on account of the risk. Fat crowds and weakens Douy organs— it slows you down and puts un­ necessary strain on the heart. A host of ailments (even, rheumatism, acidity, shortness of breath and lass­ itude) are often associated with fat. So get rid of this dangerous, un­ healthy fat. There's no reason why you shouldn’t, when science has given you this safe, effective treat­ ment—a half teaspoonful of Krus- chen 'Salts in a glass of hot water first thing every morning, 11 This healthful “little daily dose” of Kruschen keeps the system free from harmful toxins, it helps to re­ establish .normal and proper body functioning—it keeps you feeling fine and fit all the time. Energetic activity takes the place of sluggish indolence all while you lose excess fat gradually and without discom­ fort. PHILLIPS—GOVENLOCK A quiet wedding was solemnized in College Street United Church in Toronto, when Margaret Elizabeth, youngest ’daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Govenlock, of Seaforth, was united in marriage to Samuel Phil­ lips, of Detroit. The ceremony was performed by Rev. D. Carswell. Fol­ lowing a dinner at the Royal York the young couple left on a honey­ moon trip to Montreal. HISTORIC NORTHERN WASTE NOW SEA-PORT When Henry Hudson entered the bay which bears his name in his search for the Northwest Passage and viewed the wastes of water and barern shores, little did he dream that in the same month in which he first entered the bay, August, 323 years later, there would be a modern ocean port with a huge elevator at the terminus of a railway line from the interior, that a train full of ex­ cursionists would be arriving there and that an ocean-gong steamer would be unloading cargo from Europe preparatory to taking on a return cargo of grain. Such is the story of the port of Churchill and the railway which connects the in­ terior with that port. FORMER RESIDENT OF ST.

THUS PIGEON HAS GONE “HOBO” AND RIDES RAILS A Moncton pigeon has gone ‘hobo’ and rides the rods about the railway yard. Its favorite roosting place is the tender and cab of a Canadian National switching engine. After riding the length of the yard, the pigeon will fly away but always comes back to the same engine and will come right into the cab to pick up the crumbs thrown to it by the driver and fireman. How it picks out the same engine each time is what puzzles those who have watch­ ed the feathered rider of the rails. It will fight any other pigeon which attempts to usurp its roosting place.
