FINAL DAY OF SYNOD SESSIONS (Continued from Page One) we may hold for our people the great privileges of this day of rest. A letter from Rev. Robert Johns­ ton, St. Catharines, came before the Synod which suggested forming a committee to study the curriculum to provide training that will meet the ! needs of the students when they go ,out to face the changing conditions i in this new age. | The letter proposed also that the . committee be authorized to investi­ gate the possibilities of an amalgama­ tion or some pleasure of co-operation “that would set free for needy situa­ tions part of the wealth which exists in these college plants.” The Pres­ bytery would deal with it, the Synod was told, and forward any decision to the General Assembly. ’ The synod decided to grant Kintail camp $250 and referred to the Fin­ ance committee the question of how to provide future financing. A statistical report submitted by Rev. Austin Budge, Clerk of the Sy­ nod, stated that there were 162 min­ isters, 242 congregations, 22,311 fam­ ilies, a decrease of 194 from last year. There were 1,354 new members, a de­ crease of 103, making a total mem­ bership of 47,054 in the Synod. The Synod recommended an over­ ture from the Maitland Presbytery, which will be forwarded to the Gen­ eral Assembly, asking that no past- | oral charge be treated as self sustain­ ing in the settlement of a minister which pays In stipend less ‘than that ‘ upon which augmentation grants are made. i Mrs. Kenneth MacLean reported ■ on the activities of the W.M.S. which, zx. i.-. ... growth in practically claims in writing.

Messrs. J. W. McKibbon, H. E. Is- ard and W. J. Greer addressed Coun­ cil regarding stabling accommoda­ tions for farmers. They felt that this matter is very important. They had' looked over the Beattie barn and were of the opinion that it would not give ample accommodation. The Le- pard barn now owned by H. T. Thom­ son, they felt, would be a mor-e de­ sirable building for this purpose, A committee of the Council, Evans, Wilkinson and Lloyd, reported had inspected the Beattie barn recommended that it be sold. Moved by Couns. Crawford Hetherington that Couns. Evans, Wil­ kinson and Lloyd be a committee to approach Mr. Thomson re his barn on Victoria Street. Carried. A number of accounts were paid on motion of Couns, Crawford and He­ therington. Reporting for'the Streets Commit­ tee, Coun. Lloyd said the streets had been swept, dirt roads graded, side­ walks repaired, and catch-basins cleaned. The Jermyn drain was com­ pleted except for 100 feet. He said the septic tank outlet was not large enough and would have to be attend­ ed to. The man-hole would also have to be repaired. The wall of the septic tank needed some work on it also. Coun. Hetherington reported a piece of the roof at the Arena ripped off. Orders for its repair had been given. The Mayor reported the eave­ trough at the Arena on Victoria street side needed repairing. The Property Committee will attend to this matter, Sunday Band Concerts Start in June Coun. Lloyd brought up the matter of what night the Band was to at the Park. Moved by Coun. VanWyck Reeve Davidson that the Band at the Park on Sunday nights com­ mencing with the first Sunday in June. Carried. For the Cemetery Committee Reeve Davidson reported that a number of graves that were sinking were being In Perfect Health at 73 —Thanks to Krugchen Thirty-five years ago this septua­ genarian was helpless with sciatica. Then he heard of Kruschen, Since that day, he has enjoyed perfect health. Here is his remarkable story: "Thirty-five years ago, I had a severe attack of .sciatica, .and could scarcely move, four about six "weeks, Then I startpci taking Kruschen— about half-a-teaspoonful every morn­ ing in hot- water. In a few weeks, I got rid of the awful pain in my hips, I have never had to consult a doctor since, and am still in perfect health at 73 years of age, which I can only attribute to take Kruschen Salts ev­ ery niorning.”—T,A. Most people grow old long' before their time because they neglect one vital need of health, Eventually, they start the healthy ' Kruschen habit. Then, probably for the first time in their lives, they start getting rid, ev­ ery day, of all waste matter from the system. The result is renewed health and vigour, Ailments due to clogged systems vanish, youth returns, and life becomes really worth living. new course of study. No action was taken by Council at this meeting. New Lighting System for Main Street Considered Council previous to meeting /the •High School Board considered the matter of a new lighting system for the main street but deferred action until their regular meeting. It was proposed that the present poles tie re­ moved and be replaced by modern light standards, The present system hag 45 lights and cost an average of $30 apiece per annum. The new sys­ tem proposed calls for modern stand­ ards and 40 lights with an annual cost of $45 per lamp. The Utilities Com­ mission would bear the cost of installation, $8,000.

R. A. SPOTTON At a special meeting of the Council on Wednesday evening last week the High School Board submitted the plans for an addition to the High School, which if proceeded with, will cost, it is- estimated, $31,000 includ­ ing the equipment for the proposed shop work and home economic'’ class­ es. The members of the School Board explained to the Council that at pre­ sent it would be impossible to give instruction .in the new subjects, Shop Work and Home Economics, as there are not sufficient classrooms in the present building. It was also pointed Out that this term there are two first forms and In the fall accommodation will most likely have to be found for two second forms, and the' school has not the accommodation for two sec­ ond forms. | The plan submitted to Council calls for the addition to be built on the front of the present building.

Speaking of social services, he said: "Our trouble, as apparently with the other provinces is to provide those needs* out of other people’s earnings.” He described the problem this way — Under the capitalist system reven­ ue for social services had to be rais­ ed by taxation, with’ the result that taxes were usually added to prices! and higher prices were inevitably met with decreased consumption and con­ sequent unemployment — and an ex­ pansion of social services, requiring additional taxation. “Never was there a more vicious circle,” he declared. “Never anything save war, more charged with disaster to civilization. Strong cerditor na­ tions have suffered economic paral­ ysis by the diversion of income into public channels, and Canada, on a per caput basis, is one of the world’s no­ torious debtors.” He refrained from dealing with the subject' of dealing with the respect of amalgamation of the provinces for an obvious reason, appreciation of the many months, Milton F.
