CiC)OPER. GLINTONI . THE RELATION OP THE HOMETO COMMUNITY BUILDING Paper read by Mrs, Kirke, presi dent, at the last meeting of the Clin- ton Women's Institute: / "Some time ago a magazine offered a prize for the best answer to the question, ''What is Home?' Eight hundred answers came from all class- es' of society. Seven, which the edi- tor called gems, were selected and published: 1. `Horne is a world of strife shut out, rind a world of love shut in.' 2, .' Home, the place where the small are great and the great are small' . 3. `Home, the father's kingdom, the mother's world: and the child's paradise' t 4. 'Home, the place where we gruntble'most and are treated best' `5. 'Home, the eentre of our affect- ions, ffections, around which our; hearts best wishes twine 6. ''Hoene is the place where our' stomachs get three_ square meals a day and our hearts a thousand' 7. ' The only place onearth where the faults' and failings of humanity are hidden under the sweet mantle of love' If we notice those seven definitions carefully we will see that love' is the keynote of each of them. The dear- est and most sacred spot.on earth is home. Around it the most sacred. associations and the sweetest memor- ies clutter, The house may be small and the furnishings poor but when hone is worthy of the tante it is the dearestspot on earth, for there father works and rd n 'other loved. , Home is the means ordained of 'God' for the productionof noble character. It is the training ground for men and women who will play their ,part in religion in general , I I read an'anttele the other day out 1 of one of the daily' .Papel . The writer said in put, We have not -the,,liome life that existed a genera. tion ago. There is no doubt as 'much love r' aki n tilt^'tt } t et n the 1 e simple, sacred' home life -that our Barents knew One could paint Pictures of the old hone life where the family gathered k for each meal and where the, father gave thanks for the food provided. Where each day the family bible was brought down and family worship was a common practice, One, could 'paint. a picture 6f the gamily spending the evening around the open fire -place e reading' ori singing , .or playing games aroud the lamp. The loss of a God-oone stiiousness followed by a lack of re- verence and tlho Iack' oi:Iiespiritof,o- bedien e on the part of the children to parents is another cause' of 'decay- of home life. The family alter is scarcely found and the Bible is almost a :closed book. We are so busy that we do not taketime to present to the children the teachings of Christ, consequently the children are "growing up without the proper respect for authority and they have not the true spirit 'of obedience or'resrerence (The writer's name was not given but are not his words true? ) Archbishop 'McNeil, Toronto, com- paring the present day homes - with these of 30 or 40 years ogo said,` We must admit that parents -in those days were inclined to be harsh and often unjust, but today parents, are unjust in the opposite direction they are too indulgent. It is a re -action. There will be n need to' return to the old harsh wag for we' in our com- mon* life will study abdut child life and the knowledge gained will'enable parents to accrue ola.results without resorting to the old way There are still many homes in the laud' which are exerting a mighty in- fluence for good in the communities where they are situated , but the warning note here -sounded is essential if the tone of our community into be pure and healthfgl. -The stream edmmunity life as well as of national life is no 'better than the spring front - which it flows, and the homes are the springs of the Connnunity life. One writer has said that among the homes of the -world the rural horned stand first. In nearly everyCanad- ran city the majority, of the profes sions!, men and men who are leaders have come from rural homes. _ Their early education \vas received in the rural schools, and so I -think the best possibilities for -the next' generation are to come from the farm homes. WYe must not only furnish men and, wemon for fanners and farmer's wives, but those who with strength and wisdom gained from clean living in rod's crit of -doors are particularly fitted to do other tasks of the world's work. , -r , !..geeu see,„- Then who in a community should help most to build up that community `What Prance need today is mothers', said Napoleon. What France and Canada and the world needs today is mothers. In a certain American school 1000 pupils were giver a set of questions to, .answer, one of which was Who is, your ideal character in real life?' and those students were al. most utienimoos , in their answer `Mother', to the question,' Is women's place in the home or in business and professions?' Nine: tenths of those students answered In the horue,' or as one girl put it In the home to keep the nation pure' or might I say 'In the hometokeep the Conr)nunite pure.' Most of us mothers cannot do much, our hands are tied 'with home and family cares and we' are not all born to lead. It would not do if we were but in,every conintun - ty there ate those who ate capable of leaderehiy .in soma line of mere munity life. • Let us try to live un to our opportunities and may we feel that 'on account of these God- given oPporthnities We have -each a personal responsibility to the •coni: munity in which we live, Let •tis.aa mothers keep our standard of home life high, and bring our children up to that standard. Are we willing to spend and be spent that this splendid country may develop into just what'we would wish it to be and that our own community sere in Clinton may be one of the ' .purest and best in our •• lovely and, Nixon Waterman tells us very nice- y.In verse hia idea of woman's place n the home of our land,- A house is built • of bricks and stone and sills and, Posts and piers, But a home is .built of loving deeds that stand, a thousand years. A house, thee' but a humble cot, with- in its Walls may hold, A home of priceless beauty, rich in Ioee'st eternal gold. The men of earth build houses, halls and chambers, roofs and dotes,- But the women- of the, 'earth -God knows. -the women build the hoinesl?' building o til t e, our community life and our. national .life. .The home life and the social' life must be closely connected if they are to have ae elevating effect on theconnnnnity. There :are two pillars of.. home life which can never be disregarded. One of these is 'Iove This is how the Archbishop of Canter'ury put it at the wedding' of Priiess . Mary.. Happiness in home life, even when it is blest like yours, with high tradi- tions, is not a platter of Course. .It. has' its roots in a mutual love 'which is tender and thoughtful in resource, unselfish in devotion' but brave .and unreserved in its honesty of mutual counsei, So you may go .together from strength tee strength' The. other pillar is Religion and again we quote theArehbishop. ' The power so to do must come from on high. We are here as Christians. Our feality and your feality are pledged to .the living Lord. The centre, the inspiration, the master in the home is Jesus Christ our Lord', Many people were ''lad that our Princess and her husband were given such good advice on their wedding day, but we as well as they need this counsel. God's special revelations of himself was through ane family and, 'when Christ :acme to this world it was to a human home and it is certain that who hewas n on earth be brought joy into every' home in his community and other communities. God instituted the home long -before we had the school, .the church or the state. therefore he meant it to be the most impertant. A missionary 'returning to this countryafter a longl bsenee was asked what was the greatest change he notieed. There had been remark- able advances in material prosperity but what struck hire most eves the decline in fanrly worship and family EVERYBODY JJKES TO SHOP AT DOMINION STORES Men usually dant like shopping with their wives.

McKIM'S DIRECTORY OP CANA- DIAN PUBLICATIONS There are 1,499 newspapers and regula•rly• published periodicals in Canada, against 1,553 a year ago. Daily„„ newspapers have decreased from 121 to 114; semi-weeklies ,front 34 to 30: and weeklies front 1,022 to 975. On the other hand, a small in- crease has taken place during the year inn the number of monthly and semi-monthly periodicals. These facts are shown in McILinr's Directory of Canadian Publications, under which n'ap'e .the. Seventeenth Edition of the Canadian "Newspaper Directory has just been issued. It is the only complete directory of pub_ lications' of Canada and Newfound- land, giving accurate, physical and circulation details of each publicajion. At the back of the book are several fists of publications arranged for eon- venient nee by theadvertiser, such ae the condensed list arranged by Pro- vinces, the list of daily newspapers,. the ne5s,;salier list arranged by coun- ties, the classified list of general and special publications in languages oth er than English or French with sta- tistios as to the populations they reach: .
