may do good". Would that every
child could read that book! There
were lessons taught in it which will
rnever be forgotten. It told of how a
!child shared his time helping elderly
people; shared his goodness of heart
trying to bo kind to those who were
not able to care for themselves; shared
his protective powers where even dumb
animals were concerned; shared his
opportunity of doing good by striving
to help those who were shut in; shared
his talent of reading with those for
whom the light of this world had been
forever shut out. From 'beginning to
end it was a story of sharing what he
had with others even to the point of

Do we share our time, or God's
time, for not one minute is our own,
by trying to do some Christian work,
A minister who had spent many years
in the Lord's work and who had been
laid aside, regretting that he was not
able to be up and about. A minister
friend said to him, "Why Mr. --,
you have spent years and years
preaching and working for the Lord,
now you should be content to rest."'
"Oh," replied the aged animator,
?'but there is so much to do and eo.
few to do it" How true that is.
There are those who are willing to
work, but they will not co-operate with
God Whom as church members they
have promised to serve, What a trage-
dy!
How many of us are sharing Christ
in our homes by having a family al -
tart How many children of the pre-
sent day will be able to.,look bask to
their early years and think of the
time when God was honored daily by
the reading of His word and by pray
er to Him by the head of the hosno
that God would protest the members
pf .the family from evil, harm and
temptation as they went about their
Melly work. There will be very few.
God is forgotten and unknown in
many homes to -day in fact a large'
number of children do not know who
God is.
When we realize that we have Ieft
an influence for good or for evil on
every one with whom we come in con-
tact will we not strive to share our
good qualities with them. That is
one reason why marriage in many
eases to -day is a failure. The young
couple do not see one another in their
own homes and therefore do not know
their true character until after the
marriage vows have been taken,
There is something which we should
share with everyone we meet and that
is the love of Christ, which we should
have indwelling in our hearts. If we
,had to pay dearly for this love we
i#ould be very anxious to secure it,
but when it is given to us without any
charge we are indeed Careless about

The Drew Government and
TOM PRYDE
Have Earned Your Support.
Drew Government has been good Government. The
record speaks plainly. It is a record of getting things
done ---a record standing out in sharp contrast against
the empty, unfulfilled promises of the Government
of which Mr. Oliver was a member. On February
16 vote for TOM PRYDE and continued progessive
Government by Premier 'George Drew.

Drew Government Action Has:
RAISED HURON'S EDUCATIONAL STANDARDS
by lifting a huge load from taxation on farms and homes. 'Drew policies have
achieved equality with the larger centres in educational opportunities for Huron's
growing boys and girls; e'
IMPROVED HURON'S ROADS
The Government which TOM PRYDE will represent helped Huron's roads three
times as much as did the Government represented. by Mt. Oliver. The Drew
Government has also extended Provincialaid to town and village roads;
EXPANDED HURON'S HOSPITALS
Drew Government maintenance grants to hospitals at Goderich, Clinton and
Seaforth are more than double those of Oliver's Government. In addition, though
no previous government had rendered any capital assistance to hospitals, the
Drew Government has made grants for extension and new equipment totalling
$75,000, of which a substantial part has already been paid;
INCREASED WELFARE SERVICES
When Mr. Oliver was Minister of Public Welfare he did nothing to increase
old age pensions. One of the first. actions of the Drew Government was to add
Provincial bonuses.
RAISED RURAL LIVING STANDARDS
Under legislation recommended and approved by farmers themselves, many
provincial aids have been given to improve farm education, health and marketing.
BROUGHT HYDRO POWER TO HURON FARMS
Where the Government of which Mr. Oliver was a member added only a scattered
few farms to Hydro service, the Drew program has brought hydro power to an
average of 659 additional Huron farms each year.
IMPROVED THE WORKINGMAN'S LIFE
Holidays with pay, one day free in seven, and fair standard basic wages have
been part of the achievement of Drew legislation.
On February 16 VOTE for TOM PRYDE Progressive -Conservative
