This theme was pare ocularly pertinent at this,tiroe she said when the gap between the rich nations and poor nations continues to widen. She added that the fathers heart of God is longing for the reconcilliation between the world and himself. The whole world is a brotherhood in Christ, Do we complain when any costly sacrifice is made in the name of Christ? Do we criticize overseas missionary and `social work when there is yet much work to be done in our lands? Do we extend the right hand of fellowship to the con. vent, the refugee, the Migrant, or do we consider ourselves superior? "Bear One Another's Burdens," God's burden and the burdens. of those who are bre. thren in Christ Jesus who "did not count equalib' with God a thing to be grasped." And who relieved the burdens in His Father's heart by bearing the burden of man's selfishness on the Cross, „ Mrs. G. Dumont sang a beau- tiful solo. "0 Lord Most Holy." by Franck-Scott.

In additialt, Mr. iVicliallY PAPilt a fell weekend in the thaere tcaoloor ministry, and attended special meetinge for presiding Ministers and prospective fully time missionaries, The highlight of the three!, day convention was the public lecture "Why Does GO Permit Wickedness?", deltvered by Joseph Scaglione, district sup. eraser from Toronto, Sunday afternoon. Kitcheaer-Waterloo Collegiate auditorium wee filled th capacity. Friday evening, 940 delegates were welcomed by Mr. Scag. Bone with the address "Strengthening One Another to Remain in the Faith," Come meeting 'on the growing lack of faith everywhere, he said; "We must be careful that our source of instruction is God's Word. It is too evident that failure to go to. the •Bible has produced a crop of synical faithless in. dividuals," During the ministry school that followed, one of the stir.' dents, Douglas Spencer, El. mire, described a poised and confident speaker as one who has the proper mental attitude. "Poise", he stated, "is the mental and emotional balance that brings peace and accord to an audience," The purpose of the school is to equip all en. rolled, young and old, to be more proficient ministers, both from the standpoint' of platform speaking and of teaching in the home, The four assigned stu.' dents who followed discussed. God's Name and Its importance. Saturday afternoon four- new ministers were ordained by water baptism in symbol of their dedication to God's will, Mr. Scaglione emphasized in his ordination speech to these, that much study of the Bible had brought them to this step of baptism which would serve as their ordination as ministers and the putting on of a new personality befitting a dedicated Christian. In the evening, a program de. signed to promote "together. ness as a Christian family," was illustrated by a series of demonstrations, Various family situations pointed out that family unity and lasting faith can only be attained by parents taking the lead in prayer, study and wholesome recreation with heir children. I "Since it is God who perms wickesteme it eseeenay,; fair ente right to listen to His explana- tion of why He does." said Mr. Scaglione on Sunday afternoon. "Man, the Bible tells us, was made perfect but in the limited sphere of a human, He would havemany things to learn, even as it was said of Jesus, a per. feet man, although he was a son, he learned obediende through the things He suffered'. The deciding factors wereeand are, the free choice or will of the individual. Man needed and needs God's guidance and direction," he went on, "he was never made to exist in- dependeetly of God, If man re. fused to accept the guidance of the Almighty chaos would re. suit, as has happened. So much of the wickedness of the past ages and the present," he said "can be traced to man's own doing. We all have a tendency to blame God for an that be. falls us, even as Adam did, but in honesty we can see our first parents passed on impere fection to us, not God; Nevertheless, wickedness, can be shared with another," he stated, "Satan the Devil who actually instilled Eve with the idea of rebellion is the hated enemy of man, and the one who is mainly responsible for all wickedness." To answer the moral issue of :integrity of all God's creatures raised this One' would take titre, We are faced with the signe that we have 'reached the end 'of the, appointed time. Nian'a rule of himself Wider dee monic influence has proYed to be .a dismal 6,000.year failure. It is now time for God to ppm., pletely establish His Kingdom rule of the earth under the die rection of His Son, who He lovingly sent as a ransom for as, Only under thatlaingdomwill this weary earthbe transformed into a Paradise of perfect peace, "To make sure of these things!' he concluded, "read your Bible and find the promises held out by Jehovah God for everlasting life. Escape the Wrath that God will inflict upon this wicked system. Quickly heed Hip word of warning through the prophet Zephaniah: "Seek righteousness, seek meekness. Probably you may be concealed in the day of .Tehovah's anger." Allen Siemens, circuit sup- ervisor, remarked in one of the closing talks Sunday afternoon: "Keeping Free from the Spirit of Complaint" that while such a spirit may be all around us, there is no reason for Jehovah's Witnesses to adopt such a spirit. Hp emphasized that "we should always look for the good in others, minimizing their weak. nesses. If any individuals are prone to murmur and find cause for complaint they should turn their thoughts toward God and seek help from Him to remove this spirit," U.C.W. meets • 4a the mether of two pre-, teenagers and Pne tiny pre- schooler I have learned to derstantl why it is that child. ren who arrive Iate in likare spoiled' Fatten. Our yormgest gete away with the A clergyman may sue Gerdon Sinclair! It' 'started when Rev. Hugh McKervill of Port Hope talked about the Canadian flag being like a beer can label. Sinclair is all-Canadian and took exception both on the air and in a private letter to Mr. McKervill. He said anyone who would downgrade the Canadian flag would consume his own urine. Thus far, Sinelair has re- ceived three bottles of urine in the mail. One was signed by Mr. McKervill, but he would neither deny nor confirm that he had sent a bottle of urine to Sinclair, The m inis ter said he was pursuing a line of action through the legal channels open to him. During one of his newscasts on CFRB,. Sinclair mentioned that the note was signed by Mr, McKervill, and suggested that he was in need of a psychiatrist. He also doubted that Port Hope needed Mr. McKervill, and said analysis of the sample in the bottle indicated the sender had kidney and prostate trouble. Mr. McKervill hadaddressed a Port Hope Brotherhood Week dinner and was reported to have said Canadians permitted the maple leaf flag to be foisted upon them at a time when the world needs no more national flags. The flag was said to have been referred to as "that beer can label". If the minister doesn't like the Canadian Flag or this country, then he should leave. Some ministers, spend all their time talking about beer, politica and bingo, The Bible is their business, Apparently McKeeaill should be reminded of t115,04'01t!:1•1411: ;:..1: Yotere wrong MeXervill!

Still I Could not recell that the two oldest together had been more tiring than this one small bull. dozer we were now raising, In fact, it seemed to me that our baby son (now almost two) could move faster, obey slower, talk smarter and appear dumber than either of the children bee fore him, Admittedly I was ten years older than when the others were babies One decade can make a whale of a difference in a person's outlook on things I know, but in the area of child rearing my opinions have not changed too much. I like child. ren who are obedient, silent unless spoken to, mannerly and above all, whine-less. To be 'absolutely truthful, I must confess that none of my children possessed all these virtues at all times - but at least the older two had their moments. Obedience was a big thing those days and both my husband and I insisted on a 'please' or 'thank you' where. ever it was indicated. As far as whining was concerned, they soon gave up the half crying. half begging bit when such be. haviour was rewarded with a meaningful slap on the fleshy portion just below the back. Now? Well, in the obedience department our baby is a flop. He thinks "no" is only a word to be repeated when it is to his advantage. He's never si. lent unless daddy and I want him to perform - then he's like the grave, completely mo- tionless and unnaturally quiet and still. Manners are sadly lacking. He eats what he likes, ,spits Out what he,doesn't, &Mite soup without any embarrass. 'Pent and wears his beT1 for a beanie. His favourite expres. sloe is "Idenwanea" and when he's denied his own pleasure he screams lustily until either he or the rest Of the heelsew hold Is exhausted, I don't. approve, Pin ashamed. I try but it appears useless. What's wrong? Finally I hit upon the answer. Yoe may agree or you may not. It really deesn't matter for there is no actual solution even when you know where the real problem lies. It is a matter of simple logic. When Pm devoting a large por- tion of my waking hours to my two oldest (now heading for the most difficult time of their lives, so I'm told) it stands to reason something gets neglected. If I want them to steer clear of street corner loitering, back seat love make ing, hippie hopping, pot puffing, snuff sniffing, dare-devilling, harum hanging and a hundred and one other horrible acts of which everyone accuses the very young, then I've got to keep them occupied with other safe useful and entertaining habits. So I teach my daugnter to cook, keep house, sew, anti take pride in her appearance. No. One son is encouraged to shovel snow, build storage shelves, empty garbage and act like a man. They invite friends home, belong to clubs, take music lessons, play records, and go places with mom and dad as chaperones. That takes time, e folks. Lots and lots of time - and the youngest child is some. what ignored to fend for him• self and become an obnoxious brat, Babies are wonderful - any time. But if you want model children, have them all at once and keep them at about one age level. At least then your problems are consistent. Htronvjew. service.
