INCOME TAX IlEGULATIONS
Doctors and other professional
men will be among those who suffer
under the new income tax regula
tions brought about by the change
from municipal to provincial collec
tion through the Dominion Govern
ment facilities, according to assess
ment officials here,
Under the municipal income sys
tem professional men were allowed
to deduct their business taxes, but
under the new laws this wi-i not be
permitted.
Opinions locally are also to the
effect that the small income taxpayer
will be penalized to a greater extent,
while the larger salary earner will
not be taxed as heavily.
Taking a married man with two
children on a salary of $3,800, there
is an exemption of $3,000 for being
married and $400 each for the two
children, so that under the muni
cipal tax he has been free from tax
ation. However, under the federal
system, which will apply to the pro
vince as well, the exemption for be
ing married is $2,000 and $400 for
each child, so that in this case a man
earning $3/800 a year would pay
$15 on the net income of $1,000.
Coming to the higher salaries, a
man receiving $10,000 a year, with
two children, would be exempt under
the municipal tax up to $3,800 and
pay on a 40-mill basis to the extent
of $248 on the net income ofh.$6,200.
Under the new method the same man
would be exempt on $2,800 and pay
$220. This is determined by the
fixed rate of $210 on a net income
of $7,000 and 5 per cent, on
$200 over that amount.

Imagine 13 Black Friday in every
year, indefinitely into the future.
■Superstition may have received a
mortal blow from modern science,
but local amateur astronomers think
that would be enough to revive it.
From the superstitious they ex
pect the greatest protests, when a
committee of the League of Nations
considers proposed new calendars,
possibly this year.
Of two most .populai’ new calend
ars under consideration for world
adoption, one calls for 13 months,
of 28 days each. Every month will
start on Sunday, and every one of
the Ii3 months would have a Friday,
the 13th.
Canada is one of two nations that
has already expressed to the League
of Nations its approval of the
month calendar.
William L. Langford, a resident
of London for the past nine years,
died at his home last week.
Born in Biddulph Township 58
years ago, son of the late James
Langford, he had been employed as
a stationary engineer at Lucan be
fore moving to (London.
Predeceased by his wife in 1926,
he is survived by one son, Alvin;
three daughters, Mrs. George Acker;
Mrs. Cecil Morris, Miss Ruth Lang
ford, of this city; his mother, Mrs.
Langford, of London; two brothers,
Melville, London; Gordon, Detroit;
one sister, Mrs. George Taylor, of De
troit.
It’s very embarassing when one’s
wife is jealous and very liumilating
when she isn’t.
, The Spirit of thq Lord is upon Me
because He hath anointed Me t(
preach the gospel to the poor; He
hath sent Me to heal the broken
hearted, to preach deliverance to the
captives, and recovering of sight “to
the blind, to set at liberty them that
are bruised, to preach the acceptable
year of the Lord. (Luke 4.18, 19.)
When the Lord Jesus Christ de
clared His purpose, that He had
come to 'bring good news to all who
, needed what He alone could do for
them, was He welcomed and trusted
and loved by all? We sometimes
hear it said that, if Christ came
again to earth. He would be Receiv
ed and honoured by every one. The
facts are against any such rosy but
ignorant optimism. Human nature
has not changed in nineteen centur
ies. After a very wonderful address
by the Son of God in His own town,
Nazareth, the entire synagogue con
gregation to whom He spoke was so.
enraged that, "filled with wrath,”
they "rose up, and thrust Him out
of the city, and led Him unto the
brow of the hill, whereon their city
was built, that they might cast Him
down headlong.”
Ye, many who heard Christ did
believe in Him, and receive Him,
and follow Him in full and unques
tioning faith. There are the two
classes today; Some become believ
ers and followers; some turn against
Christ, in bitter hatred.
People in Nazareth had known the
hoy Jesus as He lived and worked
there and grew up; and one day, af
ter he had begun His public minis
try in other parts of Galilee, He
came back to His home town. Going
to the Synagogue on the Sabbath
.day as His custom was, He."stood up
for to read.” They handed Him the
book of Isaiaah, and He opened to
what is chapter 61 in our Bibles to
day. He. read aloud the words of
the Golden Text given above.
It was Christ’s declaration of the
purpose of His coming to earth from
Heaven. He must have read those
inspired words .with thrilling power,
For as "He closed the book, and He
gave it again to the minister, and sat
down,” we read that "the eyes of all
them that were in the congregation
were fastened on Him.”
What would He say next? The as
tounding statement came from His-
lips: "This day js this Scripture ful
filled in your ears.”
Seven centuries earlier one of fne
greatest prophets in all the history
of Israel, Isaiah, had uttered a piro-
phetic statement, and Jesus Christ,
the boy and man who had been
brought up in Nazareth, was. daring
to tell .the people that Isaiah’s words
/referred to Himself, and that the
wonderful things predicted by the
Old Testament prophet were fulfill
ed before their eyes.
His hearers could not deny the
power of the man who was speaking
to them, and "the gracious words
which proceeded out of I-Iis mouth.”
But they could not understand, and
they .did not believe. We can hear
the hum of excited conversation, in

ie right. Make
whispers or louder, as people began
to ask each other, "Is not this Jo
seph’s son?” What right had He to
make any such presumptuous claims
tor Himself?
No, this was not Joseph’s son. The
man who spoke to them had no hu
man father; He was God’s Sou, as
no created man has ever been.
His divine wisdom and omnisci
ence were evidenced by the fact that,
as lias often been pointed out, when
He quoted Isaiah 61:1,2, He brqke
off His quotation at a comma and
stopped in the middle of a verse.
Turning back to Isaiah, we find there
the words: "To proclaim the' ac
ceptable year of the Lord, and the
day of vengeance of our God.” Christ
in the synagogue at Nazareth pro
claimed "the acceptable year of the
Load” and His lips were sealed about
"the day of vengeance of our God.”
Why? Because the day of God’s
vengeance, or judgment upon a
Christ-rejoicing world, did not come
at Christ’s first coming to the earth,
nor has it yet come during the nine
teen centuries since then; it will
come only at the time of the second
coming of Christ. He came the first
time in- grace; He will come the
second time in judgment, Isaiah, as
in other Old Testament prophets,
makes statements about the coming
of the Lord without distinguishing
between the first, coming-and the
second; both are true, but not until
the New Testament was given and
completed by the Holy Spirit could
men understand-these "mysteries, '
once hidden but now revealed.
Then, as the incredulous question
ing went on in the Nazareth congre
gation, the divine speaker, who had
■ started -it- -by-His u-Rk|,ue ..and ainex-
peeted address, explained it. "No
prophet is accept in his own count
ry,” He said. He went on to explain
that God necessarily limits His bless
ings and His mighty workings to
those who He knows are ready to
believe and trust Him. There were
many widows in Israel, Christ said,
at the time of the great famine,
when Elijah lived and worked, but
he was sent to only one. There were
many lepers at the time of Elijah,
"and none of them was cleansed, sav
ing Naaman the .Syrian.”
Christ had been working many
miracles in Capernaum, not far away
and in other places in Galilee; why
did He. not work miracles in Nazar
eth, was the challenge. The question
was answered at the time of His sec
ond visit to Nazareth: "
not many mighty works
cause of their unbelief.”
