T-A photo .5j1WiWP) Are you committing suicide? "Of course not!" you answer. But stop a minute and think. I heard a minister point out recently that many of us are eating ourselves to death, drinking ourselves to death, smoking ourselves to death, working ourselves to death and driving (in cars) ourselves to death. What is suicide? According to the dictionary it is the voluntary action of taking one's own life. Since the sense of survival is the strongest force in the human makeup, under normal conditions we conclude that anyone com- mitting suicide is under such stress and strain as to be ab- normal (at that moment), and because we understand that person was, at that moment, unable to cope with his situation, we forgive him. Thus, the minister pointed out, if we as humans find forgiveness possible, then surely God, with his even greater compassion, can forgive the act of suicide. But what about us who, in our right minds deliberately set out to kill ourselves by overeating, over working, over smoking, etc.? Can we be so easily forgiven? Goodness knows, we've had enough warnings. Doctors and scientists con- tinually bombard us with statistics that prove that what we are doing will shorten our lives. Suicide is suicide whether you take one hour off your life or twenty years. Yet we eat on like a field of army worms, or smoke like a bunch of chimney pots, or drive too fast and commit other acts, with apparent disregard to the fact we may be taking time off the life which was given to us as a gift. And what a wonderful gift it is. The human body is the most beautifully engineered and the most complicated system there is, according, to Dr. A. C. Guyton, head of the medical school of the University of Mississippi. "It works by means of several hundred patterns of control, each affecting the other, A complete understanding of it can hardly be gained without the help of computers with their ability to handle vast amounts of data." For instance, the brain has 10 million nerve cells to record what you learn. The information travels inside you at speeds up to 300 miles per hour over a network of nerve fibres 100 thousand miles long! There are more in- terconnections in your nervous system than there are street corners in the entire world. A portion of skin the size of a postage stamp contains four yards of nerves. In all, there are millions of these nerve endings allimminuniuniulluinninummuggioninie Complete Assortment of I Fall Fashionsi I BOYLE'S! LADIES' , gi. WEAR 1.- :,- . = • MAIN ST.

Yet, this is the delicate marvelous mechanism some people would `blow' with drugs, As another for instance, take your heart. About the size of your fist, it pumps life-giving blood through about 100,000 miles of blood vessels. In a single day your blood travels about 168 million miles the equivalent of 6,720 times around the world. Every extra pound of flesh we carry increases the mileage by hundreds of miles and thus puts a heavier work load on our hearts, We know all this, yet we con- tinue to stuff ourselves and ruthlessly over tax this magnificent piece of equipment to a state of disrepair. What about those two com- plicated balloons in your chest, commonly known as lungs? These are the complex organs that supply the body with necessary oxygen and absorb the waste MARMALADE WITH A DIFFERENCE Tried a new recipe this week for Cucumber Marmalade. It turned out good and we find it delicious with cold meats. CUCUMBER MARMALADE 2 cups prepared cucumber 2 cups (13/4 lbs. sugar) t/2 cup lemon juice (about 3 lemons) 2 tbsp. grated lemon rind 1 box pectin crystals First, prepare the cucumber. Peel about 11/2 pounds fully ripe cucumbers, Grind, Measure two cups into a large saucepan. Then make the marmalade. Add sugar, lemon juice and rind to cucumber in saucepan and mix well. Place over high heat, bring to a full rolling boil and boil hard one minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and at once Mr. & Mrs. Lorne Johnston, Bob and friend of London visited with David Johnston at Walkerton, Sunday. Mr. & Mrs. Wesley Witmer visited over the weekend with Rev. S. E. and Mrs. Lewis, at Alliston. Mr. Lewis is the former minister of James St. United Church. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis wished to be remembered to all their friends in Exeter. Mrs. Irene Store and Carman Beavers, St. Marys, visited Mrs. Myrtle Brown, Saturday. Mr. & Mrs. Roy Nethercott and Mrs. Harry McTaggart of St. Marys visited with her Sunday. Mrs. Charles Harris and Debbie of London spent the weekend with Mrs. Milton Pfaff. Seniors hold birthday party The residents of Whilsmith Apartments, Andrew Street, held a joint birthday party last week in honor of Mrs. Marion Sholdice, Mrs. Jennie Lawson, Mrs. Olive Tebbutt. Mrs. Vi Huntley and Mrs. Olive Andrew who celebrated birthdays during the summer months. After an afternoon of contests and games they sat down to a potluck picnic supper on the lawn. Games of bingo brought the occasion to a pleasant end. gases from the body. When man is born his lungs are clean and pink. By the time he's an adult they are slate-colored or black depending on how much he has polluted them. Still, we continue to puff on our cigarettes, deliberately unheeding the warning that this habit may not only cause lung disease but seriously effect other parts of the body as well. Biochemists tell us that by utilizing of the most up-to-date laboratory equipment, the typical protein must be boiled for at least 24 hours in a chemical solution to be thoroughly broken down. However, the chemical plant of your body completes the identical job in only four hours and without high temperature. The psalmist, contemplating the wonders of his body, ex- claimed, "I will praise Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made." Modern man, by his ruthless and sensuous living seems to declare, "To hell with it . . . live for the moment, who cares when we die?" Can God forgive such thoughtlessness as we deliberately commit suicide? stir in fruit pectin. Skim off foam with metal spoon. Then stir and skim for five minutes to cool slightly and prevent floating fruit. Ladle quickly into glasses. Cover at once with hot paraffin. Note: If desired, a few drops of green colouring may be added while mixture is coming to a boil.
