THIRTY-THIRD YEAR EXETER,, TART(), TIURSDA`Y' ,NIAR. 1920 SANDERS & CREECIH Our Corner The newspapers of Bruce County have decided to increase the price of subsciriptions to $2,00 a year, to eommence some time duritag the sum- mer. Thi $1,56 weekly is zea longer a payineapropositiomi. The other fifty cents, is ab. alutcly tneeded to meet the increased colts of white paper, etc. It has been demonstrated that air in a room tightly closed: is with snuck greater difficulty heated than .one in which some fresh air is allowed to en- ter. In the former case it seems to become dead and stagnant, and hard to heat, Keep a ;little circulation of fresh air in the room, and you will find the air leasier to heat. THE WAR LOAN. It apzrears to us that the Dominion Go`*erement has handed out a raw deal to the buyers of 1919 Vi tory Loan Malay a man was given, to understand d s that 4.f he .has a thousand pillar' or so be could itrnveyst it iat! Vigtory Loan 1919, ast..l if he ,nreededd the money later he ootid sell et of par with in.- terest;. The ,g rexrtment bas now reduced the selling value of the loan, tee 97, which ,means that if a man wants his money now, he. can. only secure 97 per cent. with interest. Or a $1000 band becomes worth only $97Q if sold. now. Be it remembered, that the per- son woe. does not Want to sell does not lose. People can igeneral in buying Victory Bonds thought ,they could get back all their money from the sale of the bonds at any time, and the Govern- ment's fixed price of the bonds on the market led' them to think so. They did not imagine they were going into a speculative deal, The recent de - =ease as fixed by Government in the market value, sof the bonds shows the people that it was a speculative ileal. The man who des lined to help the Victory Loan campaign can to -day buy the bonds( for 97 per cent, of what it oast the other fellow who helped along the loan by putting every dollar he could into the bonds. Many sof those Victory Loan, sub- scribers knew that they would have to sell in a few months to use the mance' to stock their farms, or for other purposes. Now these subscrib- ers fined •they han*e to lose $30 on each $1000 if they leave . c> sell beaads now. is oth e•e n a is The wholethingxn tag than putting a premium on unpatriot- ism, or a ,di egount on patriotism.

Trumper, rector "Peace be '~411" (Greek version, - "Hush, be muzzled," ). St. Mark 4.39. In a. dangerous storm on the capri- cious inland Sea, of Galilee a little boat occupied by thirteen persons is cross- ing from the westernto lite e h eastern side, the waves are breaking into the ship, so that it is now fell, of water, and one, evidently the ,leader of the little :company, is in,thehinder part of the vessel, not helping, not cheer - not sympathizing with the rest -- re, asleep, It was He who suggested the crossing, He, who when the even- ing tof a long. toilsome ;lay had come, said, "Let us pass over unto the other sidey' In some sense thea, He was to blame for the peril. Why had: he not foreseen, the winds and the vvaves and postponed the voyage at least till the morning ? They had trusted Him -not wisely, but too. well, and now in- stead of feeling for them in, their dis- tress, He flies there taking His rest, lies there asleep. The sting of the danger is in that sleep, If he were awake and alive to their trouble they could. leave barne it, they were always ready to follow Him -sometimes they thought they could die with Him, but that He shoul,i be indifferent to ,their alarm, that He. should be able to sleep through it this was unkind, 'this was so =like Rima Half in astonishment and half in. reproach they at hal: awaken hire with the question, "Mas- ter, sorest thou not that we perisha' Miracle and paarable are but differ- ences of ,name in, madly places in tae Gospels, ami itis so here. The croes- ang, the storm, that sleep, that awak- ening a,11 were typical, real as recta, significant as emblems, They have all been acted alga in and again, in human lives, in spiritual histories; redemption, itself is just that --a world's aniaery, misery. a world's sense of neglect, a Divine sleep, a Divine awakening -- ""the times of this ignorance Gott winked at" -at last ilei Interpased for deliverance, rebuked the wind and the sea, incl would have ail ‘men, every- where to be staved,: To understand thoroughly the cause of these sudden and violent tempests which are by no meari•s uneomman we must remember that the Sea of Galilee lies Iow-628 feet lower than� ` rte e f y r the , facia a Sea, d r•ara n that the vast and naked plateaus rise to a great height, spreading backward and upward: to snowy Mt. Hermon, that the watercourses have cut profound ravines and wild gorges converging to the head of the ,lake, and that these act like .gigantic smsokesltacks to draw down the shad winds from the moun- tains. Dr, W. M. Thomson says with reference to the Sea, of Galilee, that on a certain occasion i s his exper- ience: ""The sun had scarcey set when 'the wind began to rush down towards the lake. and°it conitinued . all, night long with constantly increasing viol Ince, so that whin ,we reached the shore meat ,morning the face of the lake was like a huge boiling cauldron." The !tempest which, shook the tried courage, and baffled the utmost skill of the twelve hardy fishermen, didnot ruffle for one instant the dip serenity of the San of God. Awakened by their panic stricken crises, without one - sign of confusion, without one trem or of Alarm Jesus simply raised him- self on. His elbow from the dripping stern of the labouriing and .half sinking vest;ea, and first of .all stilled the tem- pest of their souls by the, quiet wards, "Why are .yei •sto f ea rfua, O; ye of lit- tle faith?" and then rising up, standing in pa the calm sof a natural majelity, He gazed forth into ,the darkness, and His ,voice Was heard amid the roaring of the troubled elements, saying, 'Peace be still," and instantly the wind dropped and there was a great calm. The question is asked to -day, Why doesn't God'"imtervenie: row to prevent disasters? Would it be arise e. g: to. suspend the force of graiitation every time when its action may cause des- treetion? If the' force of Nature were rendered vaniialbee in their action would human life be, possible ? Our trust is, iia the, sure and certaiie prom- ise, "The Lord shall preserve thy go- ing ,out and coming in" JAMES ST. CONGREGATION.. Rev. Tal. J. Wilson, B. A., Pastor Find the text in Psalm 1.03 -third verse. "Who healeth all thy disea In this tithe of ban,on church ser- vices because of disease, possibly it is opportune to consider the subject of healing ;and our indeptedness to' God for it. Let me say first that all healing ;comes directly or indirectly from God. T know' there have been fake healings that have been called "Divine Healing" by which people have been deceived. The disease be- ing entirely a .matter of imagination. We have perhaps heard of such cases But for all real healing of real'..dis- ease we are' indebted to Almighty God. Let me say again, God, heals more ways than we have thought. In order that we may give. God the praise due Him; for healing of '.these bodies, let. me point out some of the ways` in which His healing ministration is ex- ercised. First, I would mention, in- stant n- stant"•restoration by the power of God in answer to the prayer of the afflicted one, or the prayers of others, or. both united.
