When the world was very yoang, the flowers chose their own place of abode. The primrose adorned the sloping bank, the buttercups Rnd daisy went to the fields. Almost every paat of the world had its trees and flowers to make it beautiful. The mountain was left bare and alone, no flowers wanted to live en its bleak slopes. Nature asked if none of the flowers would go to the Inoun- taM, but each one began to make excuses. Finally a small, voice was heard, 110111 - It's the GOODVEAR LOGGER LUG • It's tough! • It resists rock cuts! • It grips like a trap! • It wears like iron! YOUR GOOD YEAR DEALER Shell Service Station RG. BALL — PHONE 5 Clinton, Ontario "I will Willingly go and live on the mountain, but I am so small mid unattractive and Thave no 1,1tasSonia Yet if the mountain will have me, 1 will gladly go and cover its bare slopes." Itwas the • voice of the heather and its offer was, immediately accepted by the mountain. It ,went to its new home and very soon what had been a bare attraetiVe rock was transformed with a lovely shade of green. The other flowers said mock- ingly, "What is the good of heather? She May be greed, but she has no blossonis". Nature replied, "From this time forth, heather 'shall have a dainty pueple or white blossom Which shall be admired by all and she shall adorn the mountain side until it shall be the delight of all who see it." What heather, that tiny little flow- er, means to the natives of Scotland all the world over, is only realized by those who are of Scotch. deseent. Thus from the earliest history of the world there has been a beginning of ea-el:Tithing, In Genesis I, we read "In the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth." God was beyond that creation. We now 'believe that from tha foundation of the world all things which are used at the present time were somewhere in the foundation of the Earth or sea. During World War IT, there have been many new 'discoveries, but without exception, they are made from something which God created when He made the Heav- ens and the Eavth. It is indeed interesting to watch the first time of children. How anxiously their first cry is awaited and what a terrible disappointment there is in the hearts of parents when, nothing in medical science can call forth that cry. Then we watch as they develop their little traits of character. It is indeed amusing how they try to put things over their par- ents and particularly their grand- parents. It has been the custom for some time for a father to take his little son down to his grandparents on Sunday morning. Recently the little lad had taken a notion that he did not want to go home with his dad. This went on for some weeks and finally the dear little soul won out with the result that the grand- parents had to drive miles to take him home. That was a first time but do not mention to the grandparents that there will be a second time. In everything we do there is a first time mid unless we stop right there there is bound to be a second time and a third time until a habit is formed. A dear friend told 1110 the follow- ing story recently. He was a very heavy smoker. It was nearing the time of the anniversary of Inc con- version. He had felt that there was no harm in smoking. One morning he had some work to do at home and when he went to get a cigarette he had none and before be began The next meeting of the Huron County Council will be held in the COUNCIL CHAMBERS, COURT HOUSE, GODERICH, commencing Monday, Number 18th at 2.00 p. m. All accounts'notices of deputations and other business requiring the attention of Council should be in the hands of the County Clerk not later than SaturdaY, November 16th. N. W. MILLER, County Clerk, GODERICH, ONTARIO 45-46-b MINTON NEWS -RECORD PALE THREE• his work he had to dregs on a wet morning and go out to get tabacco, On the way it, like a flash 'oceurred to him that he was allowing tobaeco to take Best place in his life and he decided that he would on his anni- versary day give it ma absolutely. He had been smoking about 50 cigar- ettes a day. The night before the anniversary he had his usual sznoke, then he gathered up his pipes, to- bacce; etc., •put them in a box and took them down stairs. Then he went back to his, room and prayed that God would 'help him. Before he got up from his knees he knew that he, with God's help, had con- quered the smoking habit. The next day was his first day since he was a young lad that he had not had a smoke, and has not had now for many Years. There is no temptation arid& comes into the life of anyone, which God cannot help us to remove. We do not need to go to any sect. MI we need to do, no matter whether the temptation is whiskey, cards, gamb- ling, lying, jealousY or whatever it may be, is to get down on our knees and take the matter to God and if we fully trust that He can save us from it, He will do it and the joy will be His as well as ours. Young men and young women who have become addicted to liquor do not let it get the mastery over you. Take the mat- ter to Jesus and He will save you from it. Get down on your knees and ask Him to be with you. You will be amazed at the result of your prayer. We very often criticize those who have fallen. What right have we to? Christ did not lecture the woman taken in adultery. He told her accus- ers that whichever of them was not guilty to cast the first stone and when Jesus looked up her accusers had all gone and He said to the wom. an: "Go and sin no more." It is our Christian duty to help:those who are doing things which are not Christian rather than try to keep them down. All we need to do is to ask ourselves, "What would we have done under similar circumstances?" Everyone has • the privilege of. starting over. Some of our best men and women to -day are those who have been through trial and tempta- tion end with God's help they have risen above it and made a fresh start. There is always the first time of our Christian experience and what a joy it is for us when Christ comes into our lives. Do we so live that someone else will want to find our Saviour through our lives. A young college student was one time given a copy of a masterpiece of Christ. The friend who gave it to him was in his room some time after and he saw the picture of Christ hanging on the wall surrounded by magazine pictures of "pin-up" girls. He did not "com- ment on it but prayed that God would use the masterpiece for the purpose for which it was intended, Some weeks after he received an in- vitation to visit the college student. When he got there, he, to his great joy, found a young mali who had accepted Christ. Alone on the one wall was the picture of Christ in Gethsemene. Oh the other walls were pietures in keeping with the divine man who was now his 'Saviour. The student explained to his friend that by degrees he felt that the picture of Christ did not seem in keeping with the pictures of the world. When he left home his mother had given him a Bible. After several days he !went down to the trunk room and brought it up feeling that he wanted to read the story: of Christ in Geth- fsemene. That pieture, the first Bib - 'heal copy he had hacl was the means :of his conversion. There is a first time in everything we do. Will we not make this the first minute of our Christian life? During till the days of our life Christ has been holding out to us the free gift of ,Salvation. Now before it is too late, we must accept that gift. Make this the first day of our life with Christ.
