On her way back home she visited war torn Spain and while there took a few shots at the rebels. Inconsistency, thy name is woman, has been a saying for some time, but this act goes to remind us of this saying in an unexpected way. The women’s organizations in Can­ ada are for peace and if one reads the reports of the meetings of the various women’s organizations they will see that very often addresses on Peace are given. We believe that if we are to have peace, the lead given by our women must be followed. We will have to. talk peace and pray for peace as they have been doing since the last war. I.et us all be not like the peace delegate who travelled miles on a peace mission only to fire a gun almost on the first opportunity. ^I4 M4 * GODERICH OBJECTS TO HYDRO RATE The town of Goderich is up in arms against the rates that they are being charged by the Hydro Electric Power Commission. The rate there at pres­ ent is $43 and it is said that when they voted for Hydro they were pro­ mised a rate of $18 to $25 a horse­ power. They have in mind two alternatives of securing a supply of power if they decided, against Hydro. Harnessing the Maitland is one and we firmly believe that they would have consid­ erable difficulty doing that on a pay­ ing basis. This river is very low in the summer and rides high in the •spring and some method of conserva­ tion would have to be adopted which would be very costly. The second idea, that of installing a deisel or steam plant may work out ns it is used in many parts of the world. The cost of installation again would be very high and a great deal of thought and advice of expert en­ gineers would be necessary for such a step. The c’iffeience in rates charged to the municipalities varies very greatly and that is what Goderich takes ex­ ception to as well as to the rate they are paying. The idea of charging towns near the supply of power a higher rate to lesson the rat? to municipalities fur­ ther out on the system has often been spoken of. It may be that some ad­ justment will have to come. M4 !l' M4 INTERVENTION—Then WHAT? The war in Spain continues and it appears the rebels are having the best of it. Where do the rebels get the money and ammunition to continue this struggle? This is the question that is worrying the non-intervention committee and the British labor heads are now asking that steps be taken to halt alleged foreign aid to the Spanish insurgents. It has been feared that this Span­ ish trouble would be the means of starting another European conflagra­ tion and if various powers take sides in giving aid it may do just that . The British government has put forth every effort to keep the Span­ ish trouble confined to Spain and so far have been sucecssful but day by day things become more complicated, What a disaster it would be if this Spanish war were to plunge Europe into war. M4 October is doing very nicely. We hope November wijl continue the good work. M4 * Ms * The Toronto Globe has changed ownership. The new publisher, C. George McCullagh, is 31 years of age.

It is a strange fact that the English word love stands both'for the lofti­ est, purest, holiest sentiment that earth and heaven can ever know, and also for the lowest, vilest, most de­ basing sentiment found in humanity. Love, therefore, can mean two entire­ ly different and opposed things, and still other things between the highest and the lowest. It can mean mere physical passion and lust; it can mean natural affection, either selfish or un­ selfish; and it can mean the miracle of God’s own love, set forth in our lesson. We ought to make these dis­ tinctions very clear to our Sunday school classes, when, degraded love as lust is having such unbridled license among young people and older today, and when it is even approved by some teachers and writers who like to think of themselves as “modern” and “emancipated” when, in reality, they are but reverting to old, antique sins and are in helpless and hopeless bondage to the deceptions of Satan and self. The divine love which I’aul writes in his immortal chapter is the heart of God’s own life, yet it is possible for us to have this divine, miraculous love as the outstanding characteristic of our lives. When we receive Christ as Saviour, He—who is God—enters literally into us, and takes us into Himself. Thus Christ becomes the ac­ tual life of the believer — “He that hath the son hath life” (I. John 5: 12). And. “God is love” (I. John 4: 8). The Holy Spirit also dwells in ev­ ery believer, and “the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us” (.Rom. 5:5). Being born again, with a new and heavenly life, we can be miracu­ lously freed from our natural attitudes and sins, such as uncleanngss, lasci­ viousness, idolatry, hatred, wrath, strife -and the like (Gal. 5:19-21). In­ stead of these things God is ready to work the following miracle in us: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness,” and other miraculous characteristics (Gal. 5:22, 23). Now look at Paul’s chapter on love (the old English word is “charity”). Without this divine, miraculous love, though jve majr have the elo­ quence of men and of angels, we are “ as sounding brass or a tinkling cym­ bal.” We may have the gift of prophecy, understand all mysteries, have all knowledge, and even have faith that can remove mountains, but if we have not love we are “nothing.” We may be sacrificially generous in giving all our goods to feed the poor; we may even die for some great cause, giving our body to be burned; but if we have not love, it is aH unprofitable. Then Paul begins to describe the characteristics'of love. Love is long sufferin, is kind, does not envy, is not proud or egotistical, never seeks its own interests. Love is not easily provoked, does not think evil, nor does it rejoice in iniquity-rand how easy it is for us to rejoice in other people’s iniquity! Love rejoiceth, in the truth. Love Ivars, believes, hopes, and en­ dures all things. Finally: “Love never faileth.” What does this mean? People sometimes mistakenly think it means that love, if continued consistently, will always win its object, will always overcome all opposition. But that is not true. God’s >wn love does not win every one. The Lord Jesus Christ, perfect in His love, did not win Judas Iscar­ iot, nor did He win all the Jewish leaders wliu crucified Hini But love never fails to continue to love; it never collapses, never breaks down, never comes to an end. Love loves the unlovely. It asks for no re­ turn, it is utterly unselfish. Love does not love for what it can get in return; love thinks only of giving, never of getting. “God so loved the world, that He gave.” He gave His best and His all, His only begotten Son, even though He knew that the world to whom He gave His Sun would cru­ cify His Son. For “God is love.” The chapter in which that revelation is made should be read and studied with this lesson chapter; it is t John 4:t-21, and is the other great Scripture passage tell­ ing us, by inspiration, what we could never know of ourselves about love. Faith, hope and love are all Chris­ tian characteristic. God gives all three Here is Mr. Johnson’s letter: “I got a package (of Kellogg’s All­ Bran), and before the package was gone I was very much better. “So I have been eating it for two or three weeks, and my constipa­ tion* has gon®, and I was consti­ pated* for 25 years or more. Hop­ ing this may help some one to bet­ ter health. I am a new friend to Kellogg’s All-Bran.”—Mr. J. B. Johnson (address upon request). Mr. Johnson’s letter is one of many. Millions find Kellogg’s All­ Bran corrects constipation* satis­ factorily. It supplies the “bulk” missing in the average meal. The “bulk” in All-Bran is mild and effective. It absorbs moisture, and gently exercises and cleanses the intestines. All-Bran also sup­ plies vitamin B 'and iron. Isn’t it more sensible to use this natural food instead of taking pat­ ent medicines? Just eat two table­ spoonfuls daily. If not relieved, see your doctor. Use as a cereal, with milk pr cream, or cook into muffins, breads, etc. ‘ It is sold by all grocers. Made by Kellogg in London, Ontario. ■ * Constipation due to insufficient “buLk” in meals. DISMISSED ON ASSAULT CHARGE The charge against Lucien Lefor- tune and J- D. Cote of assault upon Benjamin Whittard of the Village vf Brussels, was heard before Magistrate Makins in Wingham Court on Thurs­ day morning. After bearing the evidence of the complaintant's witnesses, which was very contradictory, His Worship dis­ missed the charges without calling upon the defence. It may also be of interest to the readers to know that the charge was laid against the same two accused for conducting a business without a li­ cense and that such charge was dis­ missed by the same presiding Magis­ trate. D. E. Holmes, Crown Attorney,'ap­ peared for the complainant and J. W. Bushfield, Wingham, appeared, for the accused.

By Louise Dcre Fire cooks our food, keeps us warm in winter and makes the steam which turns the wheels of our industries. Nature gives us no more useful serv­ ant than his fiery child. But let the master turn his back for a moment and the slave leaps up in rebellion, hungry to devour and destroy. There are many ways by which the loss by fire can be prevented, some of them difficult and some of them easy. One is to build houses that will not burn easily1. In Europe the wood Is scarce and they build their houses of brick and stone, but in Am­ erica wood is so cheap that the peo­ ple build their houses out of wood in small towns and cities. Another cause of many fires is bad workmanship. The mason who is building the chimney does not always take the time to sec if the chimney is tight. Then some day a hot fire is put in the furnace or stove, a spark goes though the crack and the house burns. Sometimes men who put el­ ectric wires in are careless, and when wires rub together a fire may begin. In some cities all electric wires are placed in metal tubes. Another reason we have so many fires is ttiat some of us are careless. Matches are So cheap that we use very many of them, and too often we throw them away without being en­ tirely sure that the flame is out. Many people are careless enough to throw burnt match sticks into waste baskets. Thousands of fires start this way. People are often foolish enough to light matches where gasoline or kero­ sene are stored. The fumes of gaso­ line may catch fire though several .feet away from the liquid. That is why smoking is forbidden in garages. Kerosene does not evaporize1 so eas­ ily. Perhaps we may drop one of the old fashioned matches, and someone may step on it, or matches may be left where mice or rats get at them. It is very easy to keep matches in a metal box or jar, but few people take this trouble. If we used only safety matches there would be fewer fires. If we d:> carry matches about with us, we should always keep them jn a metal box. Many fires occur on the waterfront in cities. To protect their shipping, cities maintain fleets of fire boats, really floating fire engines. At first glance one of these fire boats might be taken for a torpedo boat, for the tbrass-headed Hose connections along the side of lite deck house and the formidable looking stand-pipes or “monitor nozzles” as they ire called, mounted fore and aft, give the ap­ pearance of naval armament. Our towns keep the familiar fire equip­ ment we see all too often but none of these preventatives would be need­ ed very often if we only could be careful and avoid ’’careless” fires. 4 seconds to mix well, then pour at once into the freezer can.

Immediate initiation of the Domin­ ion Government scheme to assist a $50,000,000 housing repair and mod- grnization program, was announced. Arrangements have been completed whereby owners will be enabled to easily negotiate property rehabilita­ tion loans up to a maximum of $2,000 at a total interest cost of 6-.S2 per cent over a one year period. Announcement was made by Fin­ ance Minister Charles Dunning and Arthur B. Purvis, chairman of the na­ tional commission on employment and relief which formulated the plan, that this program, tentatively announced by Prime Minister King some weeks ago, would be launched at once in­ stead of waiting for passage of the ne­ cessary legislation. Property owners in good standing will be enabled to negotiate loans for rehabilitation purposes without secur­ ity or endorsements, the federal trea­ sury guaranteeing the banks against 15 per cent of the loss ’on an aggre­ gate total of $50,000,000. The discount rate will be 3%*;per cent which works out at an effective rate to the borrower of 6.32 per cent if he pays back in 12'monthly instal­ ments. Hope was- expressed by Mr. Dun­ ning and. Mr. Purvis that all organi­ zations throughout the Dominion would get behind the scheme and work toward its success. ftTdRES LIMITED These values £re effective for October 22nd, 23rd and 24th. 14 MARMALADE 35 I© Classic _Cleanser 3 BRUNSWICK SARDINES 3’-Assorted Shredded or Desiccated COCOANUT .15 BRUNSWICK __CHICKEN HADDIES S Tins NEW CHEESE MACARONI Readi-Cut _ ‘ RASPBERRIES ® Assorted MB Nc Brands dw Tii ib. 4 ,b Aylmer 13%-oz.
