Britain as the Prime Minister warned tkem of what would probably be ex- pected' of them. We in our fair Do- minion have little idea of what the 59c people in that small island have suf- fered and what they will still have to go through if Britain is to be saved front bankruptcy. Our hope and pray. er is that God will be with their lead- ers and will save the people who have stood firm through so many trials, from any further anxiety. There are some Canadian firms where capital and labor have never clashed, and who by co-operation with their employees have forestalled any labor situation. Those instances are perhaps few and far between. Let ns look at the laborer, includ- ing all classes of employees. In what respect can they gain the confidence of their employers and thus be made In connection with many office and to feel that theyfiare earning their work rooms there is a rest room salary? In 'the first Place; df an employee spends' (half' •the'' night at ' `a party, drinking or otherwise, he cannot ex- pei`t''to ,go to work the foilwing day and do his best. His' brain is muddled and his thoughts will not come clear- ly;' should he be working on ma- chinery there is always the ,possibili- ty of an accident, Peeple say; "Oh, 1 call go out at might and be alright for the next day."' You bow your= self you get up tired and •sleepy. You, are cranky;; and *singe bother you whi& otherwise would not, and that does .not make for your beat work. An interesting story is told' of, an eminent surgeon. In sewing . up a wound following an operation, the students observed that he always, tied three knots where it twos customary to tie only two. When he was asked about it, the surgeon replied "The third its my sleeping knot; it may not be necessary to tie it, but it makes the knot that much safer that I sleep better for it," That is only one of many instances of where a werker can go the second nndle, even in work, to make things better both for the employee and the employer.

PENNEBAKER PHoNE SERVICE DRUGGIST 11;=t01:===10= Even ,after the time clock has been punched there are some who feel they have to stop, and discuss the ques- tions of the day with their fellow - employees before they commence their work of the day.The time clock shows that you should be ready for work. If ave want to stop and talk we should come early and discuss the affairs of the world before register- ing. In many walks of life there are those who feel that they must talk or wrongful'Iy use their employer's time. Why do we want to be dis- honest in that way? We are paid for every minute from the time we come to work until we leave, and yet there are many who trifle away an hour or more of time for which they are paid. As a rule that is the class of people who want to start trouble. O OHO O0OT0 4.

Gipsy Smith, probably the world's greatest evangelist, who on August 5 of this year, passed to his. reward on the Queen Mary just the day be- fore elle docked in New York, preaeh- ii in IM•assey Hall on his first Ca- nadian tour in 1909, spoke on "Slay Utterly". Would it not be a good O thing if we would apply his words in our attitude to our work and "slay utterly" anything vsliich will tend to make us dishonest in our work. A. national guard company in a western state had been using a load speaker on a phonograph.Something went wrong with it ,and word was sent ® to the manufacturing company stat- ing the difficulty. 'Nue reply was "If our name is stamped ort the instru- ment, we will furnish new parte free of charge, or if it is sent •to us and freight charges paid', we will furnish the parts and repair it free of charge. From your deser;ption we judge the instrument has been in use about 11 years." That honesty ,and reliability belongs to a firm,. but there is no reason why it should not apply indi- vidually to each one of us. Let us make such reliability a part of eur life. A firm recently employed an ef- ficiency expert to look into the reason they were losing money. He :was given an office which was closed in, but he was not there long before he bad the upper boards removed and replaced with glass, much to the disgust of many of the employees. He found that time was being wasted by some em- ployees. Two or three of these were discharged and the ethers, learning a lesson, it was not found necessary to replace them. Do we belong to the class of those who think they can do just as they please, because on account of the shortage of help no one dare to say anything to them for fear they will leave? Shaine be upon 118 if we are taking suoh advantage of this very trying situation. Ephesiasus 2:10 tells us "For we are His worknamehip, 'created in Jesus Christ unto good 'works", Our puincipal work in life is to find Jesus as our &wiour -and then set out to live His life in ourselves in such a way that others will know we belong to 111111 and to follow His command, "Co ye into all the world and preach the gospel." Ile does not tell us to go alone, for He says, "Lo, I am with you alway". In our work here we inay rise to great heights in professional duties or in executive standing, but it •will be of no benefit to us when we 'have to say good-bye to earth, unless we have made provisions for our removal to theGreat Beyond when the call oonnesfor us to go to meet our Sa • viour. That is much more important than •asiy work we can do here. Will we not realize our responsibility along this line before we find that our call has come and we are not pre- pared?
