Manning This 'Is Your War Health authorities• say that the fear of cancer is more difficult to combat than the disease itself. This startling statment is made of a disease that is curable in a majority of eases if it is diagnosed and treated early enough. Yet cancer kills more people than any other except diseases of the heart, and is on the increase in Ontario. This year, unless something is done 7,000 men and 7,000 women in Canada will die of cancer. Something can be done, and will be done •to fight cancer—if you make it your war. During the month of April a war against cancer is being waged all over Canada and the United States. Ontario's battle is being carried on by the Ontario Cancer Treatment and Research Foundation, You will be asked to assist the Foundation in raising a minimum of )12,000;000. You may be helping to save yourself, or someone you love, 'Froin one out of every six to eight persons now living must expect to die of cancer. The Foundation, has blueprinted a three-year plan to fight this dread scourge, It will provide fully - equipped cancer •clinics and pre- vention. clinics at strategic points throughout the Province, and give partial Jinanicial aid to those who need it. It will institute research projects that may lead to the end of this 8eoond of all great "killer" diseases. Through edneatton, the Foundation plans to teach every ratan, womatr and etiid in Ontario to recognise the signs of cancer, and to. substitute action for fear and ignorance. The catnpalgtt opens the let of April and all banks wily be reoedviug centres for clotiations, Get in this war and fight, You may sato yommoelf from death.

B. Launsbury. CORNER STONES Rev, George A. Milne, M.A. The Christian Home. Following the series on Christian Marriage, a short series on the subject of 'Tho Christian Home' would seem to be a natural sequence. First let us think of the Christian Home as a Fellowship. "If Christ hes any appeal. 1f love carries any sanctiotr, if the Spirit has really created a Fellowship, if affection and tenderness are really its atmo- sphere, show it in word and deed." So wrote St. Pani to the Philippians. Fellowship was a new, distinctive discovery of Christianity. To -day when the word and idea are 1n danger of being sentimentalised by a vapid humanism on the one hand, and on being blurred by loose think- ing on the other, it.is necessary to point out that fellowship in the specifically Christian sense is some- thing mate distinct from ordinary friendliness, or ca,neraderie, or the instinct to get together. Lt is esentially supernatural and comes directly from God. It is the gift of God to those who have put Christ in the centre, 'It follows that if the home is to be a vital fellowship, Christ must be at the centre there. No personal relationships are so rich and loyal and secure as, those whish are rooted in religion.; and there is nothing which binds the members of a home to one another as the faith whioh binds them indi- vidually to Jesus Christ. The tragedy is that so many homes to -day are being built on foundations that are practically pagan The preserli divorce court scandal does not result from the fart that the men and women, who have experienced the tragedy of failure, were not once in love with one another, but rather from the fact that they failed to view their marriage in the light of God's purpose for them. The only fellowship worth cultivat- ; ing in the home is that which is centred around Christ. Where such a fellowship exists, frietiony dis- ;appear, and perfect trust and confi- dence hold sway. Such a fellowship has no Irlace for sentimental pee- sessiveness and parental domination —two evils which have wrecked the serenity and happiness of so many homes. The Christian Home as a Fellowship finds a wonderful illustra- tion in a sentence from a letter written to his wife by that noble spirit Dr. Edward Wilson, who died with Scott in the Antarctic: "I get an hour to myself as a rule before breakfast when I am quite alone, and then I sometimes pray, some- times read your teeters, and some- times write to you, often a little bit of each, and I feel it is all communion with God," How much we owe, in matters of personal religion to the fellowship of our homes: "Fairest Lord Jesus" Eater Page;Ant C« itata — AT — Melville Church —ON -- Thursday, April 18th At8p.m. Prelude of Organ Music at 7:45 p. m.

The champs deserved their win, on the night's play, witlt better passing and chocking to their credit, although the final scare was more lopsided than the play itself. Until the last four min- utes of play, when Monkton pulled their goalie and threw ht a six -man forward line, the Monkton crew could not find the net at all. On numerous chances they either drill- ; ed the puck into 04111s pads or shot it wide of the nets. However, in the last four minutes of play they 1 ganged up, rapping in four goals without a reply from Brusesls. Brussels rolled up a five -goal lead , in the first period when they had a definite edge on the play. The game was clean with only eight penalties handed out altogether by referee Stan Smith. Brussels again dominated the scoring in the mid- dle period adding three more goals. Ken Smith, however, broke the goose egg .for Monkton, nick- ing icking his goal at the 8:40 mark. A parade of 10 goals and live penalties livened up the third per- iod of play, with five goals scored by each team. After rolling up five more goals. Brussels suddenly slumped, only to have Monkton come back with an equal number. four of which were seored in the last four minutes of play after their goalie had been removed and six forwards sent out.
